A scholarly and accessible exploration of the history and culture of Jerusalem during the Second Temple period, with a particular focus on the role of the high-priesthood. Bevan provides a wealth of contextual information that enhances our understanding of the biblical narrative.
This work, published in 1918, is a detailed examination of German colonial policy in Africa and its political and economic implications. The author, Emil Zimmermann, was a German journalist and politician who supported imperial expansion and advocated for a 'new world-policy' that would position Germany as a dominant global power. The book outlines Zimmermann's vision for German colonialism and argues that establishing a German empire in central Africa was essential to achieving this goal. The work is a fascinating and controversial window into German political and intellectual life on the eve of World War I.
