Spinoza to the Letter (Brill's Studies in Intellectual History, #137)
This is the first collection of Spinoza studies that deals exclusively with the language, style, and the transmission and editing of his texts.

A History of Prayer (Brill's Companions to the Christian Tradition, #13)
"Prayer is real religion," said Auguste Sabatier. If so, the academic study of prayer allows scholars to examine the very heart of religious practices, beliefs, and convictions. Since prayers exist in a wide variety of content, contexts, forms, and practices, a comprehensive approach to the study of prayer is required.

Lutheran Ecclesiastical Culture, 1550-1675 (Brill's Companions to the Christian Tradition, #11)

La Razon de Los Vencidos (Pensamiento Critico/Pensamiento Utopico, #61)
by Reyes Mate
Kant's revolution in methodology limited metaphysics to the conditions of possible experience.

Charles Bigger argues that this imaginative "between" recapitulates the ancient Gai...
