Recenzii
This book is stimulating and inspiring, and is recommended both for devotional reading and for serious Bible study. In fact the complex arguments and cross-references are such that one can profit most by reading and pondering upon them...One can read, and then read again, this remarkable book, finding in it a great deal of food for thought.
These sermons ought to be in every study. They are classic and eloquent in their way of expressing the Christian faith. They are therefore both enjoyable and an inspiration for someone, who treads the steps up to the pulpit.
Eamon Duffy is one of this country's most prominent lay Roman Catholics...his examples are often surprising and fun...These are 16 intelligent, artful and glorious sermons from across 21 years.
Few clerics would now publish a book of sermons but Duffy, a layman and distinguished Cambridge academic, has done so. It is remarkable, and not only for Johnsonian reasons.
The eminent historian Eamon Duffy, through the good offices of his publisher who serves him well in this attractive book... It is rare that such a short book can produce so much to stimulate and with which to engage. It is less rare for a hack historian reviewer to acknowledge a master of the craft. The price is absurdly cheap for such riches.
A...breadth of cultural and literary reference is displayed by Professor Duffy: as an historian he has a gift for telling a story and for arousing the imaginative curiosity of his audiences. His sharp one-liners enliven the texts of his sermons and lends a vivid sense of an oral communication.
These sermons deserve to be enjoyed like a fine wine: sipped slowly and digested carefully. To savour their vintage is to appreciate why Eamon Duffy is valued so highly as a preacher in Oxford and Cambridge.
In Walking to Emmaus we see yet one more aspect to his intelligent, imagination and personality. ... best of many talks and addresses ...a strong autobiographical introduction explaining how his life as a scholar relates to his childhood, upbringing and deeply held religious belief.
