Are you still missing the right reading material for relaxing hours during the approaching winter break? No problem!

As every year around this time, the GW/GSW Library on the Essen campus has a special promotion shelf with a selection of great titles for the festive season. Here you will find everything your reading heart desires: novels, volumes of poetry or short stories, literary rediscoveries of forgotten authors, biographies of important writers, particularly beautiful books for children and young people, important titles from the Frankfurt Book Fair in German translations, texts on current social debates and much more.

And this is how it works:
Browse the special offer shelf, select a suitable title, reserve it and borrow it from 16.12.2024.

The Encyclopedia of the Bible and Its Reception (EBR) reflects the current state of scholarship on the origins and developmental history of the Bible in the context of the different canons in Judaism and Christianity.

More than 4.500 authors from over 70 countries document the history of the Bible's reception in Judaism, Christianity, Islam and other religions and describe the biblical influence on literature, art, music and film.

The EBR online is available to UDE members as a test until 31.12.2024.
