      언젠간 사고 싶은 (그리고 읽겠다고 생각하고 희망하고 소망하는) 세계문학전집들

      워낙 시리즈로 출판되는 책의 전집을 사들이는 걸 좋아하다 보니, 그리고 어쩌다 보니 (비록 영문학이기는 하지만) 문학을 전공했는지라 언젠가는 세계문학전집 시리즈를 처음부터 끝까지 읽어 보는 것이 (비록 미세하기는 하나) 목표다. 그 목표가 생겨서 읽겠다는 열의보다는 전집을 사도 된다는 핑계가 생긴 것 같기는 하지만...

      그러다 보니 열정적으로 (언젠가 그 날이 오면) 어떤 문학전집을 살까 고민하게 되는데, 결국 두 가지 전집으로 추려졌다.

      첫 번째, 을유세계문학전집

      먼저 1959년 국내 최초로 세계문학전집을 출간한 출판사라는 전통이 마음에 들고, "번역된 작품 하나하나가 정본(定本)으로 인정받고 대우받을 수 있도록 최선을 다했습니다"라는 간행사도 마음에 든다. 그리고 학부 공부를 할 때 (때로 본문보다 많은 해설 때문에 나를 짜증 나게 했던) Norton Critical Edition처럼 그저 팔 책을 만든 것이 아니라 각 작품에 대한 애착과 전문성을 갖고 한 권 한 권 꾹꾹 눌러 써가며 출판한 듯한 묵직함이 느껴져서 마음에 든다. 판본도 양장본이라 (매우) 책꽂이에 들여놓고 싶게 만들고, 뭉크의 '절규' 느낌을 내는 심각한 표지들은 왠지 이 책들이 나를 좀 더 똑똑하고 교양있게 만들어 줄 것 같은, 그리고 언젠간 한 번쯤은 꼭 읽어야 할 것 같은 인상을 준다.

      그리고 처음부터 끝까지 완독하기에는 2018년 8월 현재 356권까지 나온 민음사 세계문학전집보다는 아직 94권까지 나온 을유세계문학전집이 더 도전해볼 만 하다 (비록 2008년 간행 당시 "2020년까지 300권이 출간될 예정"이라는 계획은 판매 부진으로 무산되고 100권 완간을 목표로 바꿨지만).

      두 번째로, 시공주니어 네버랜드 클래식

      나이가 들면서 책은 가능하다면 원어/원문으로 읽어야 한다는 생각이 생기고, (아직 생기지도 않은 아직은 머나먼 미래의) 내 아이들을 생각하면 '어릴 적 읽고 나면 처분해야 할 어린이/청소년용 문학책을 아까워서 어떻게 사지?'라는 걱정을 하곤 하는 나에게 굉장히 매력적으로 다가온 시리즈다.

      출판사 이름 앞에 "주니어"를 붙여서 왠지 집에 주니어가 없는 어른은 출판사 이름만 보고 발을 돌리게 만들지만, 알고 보면 원작을 완역한 진짜 책이다. 단지 "주니어"한 점이라면 선정된 작품들이 어린이를 위한 고전이라는 점이랄까? (그래서 이름만 들어도 무시무시한 프랑켄슈타인 같은 작품은 없다). 하지만 무슨 상관이랴! (나는 어린이'화' 되어버린 죄와 벌을 읽기보단 원작 이상한 나라의 앨리스를 읽겠다!) 그리고 주니어한 작품 선택 덕에 톰 소여의 모험을 제외하면 을유세계문학전집과 겹치는 작품도 없기에 두 출판사가 짜기라도 한 듯 함께 소장하기에 매우 바람직하다. 게다가 판본도 양장이라 마음에 들고 비록 앞표지 디자인은 권마다 다르지만, 책 등 디자인은 같아서 책꽂이에 매우 꽂음직하다. 거기에 가볍지 않은 삽화들과 사진을 곁들인 작품 해설도 읽는 재미를 더해준다. 

      네버랜드 클래식은 비밀의 화원으로 처음 접하고 아직도 여러 페이지에 밑줄이 그어진 그 책이 내 책꽂이에 꽂혀있는데, 그 책 옆에 전집을 채워 넣을 생각을 하니 벌써 설렌다. 책꽂이에 꽂아두고 때때로 나를 동심으로 돌아가게 해줄 것 같은, 꼭 전부 갖고 싶은 시리즈다. 그래서 두 시리즈 중에 먼저 살 책들을 고르라면 나는, 네버랜드 클래식을 먼저 사겠다.

      Bible Survey

      Bible Survey is a class in Calvin Theological Seminary you can be tested out of. It covers following six topics:
      1. Themes of the biblical books (30%)
      2. Biblical verses from memory (20%)
      3. Biblical figures and the books in which they appear (20%)
      4. Canonical order of the biblical books (15%)
      5. Places of significance in biblical history (10%)
      6. Dates of significance in biblical history (5%)
      Use these to gauge your familiarity with the Bible. It will be a good exercise to make your own study guide on these topics.
        1. Themes of the biblical books (30%): Know all of the following themes for the biblical books. For the test, you will be asked to provide 15 of them. Word-for-word memorization is not required, but you should be able to provide the same general ideas.
        • Genesis: God separates out one through whom he would bless all nations.
        • Exodus: God delivers his people from slavery into his presence.
        • Leviticus: God instructs his people how to live in his presence.
        • Numbers: God chastens his disobedient people but reaffirms his intent to bring them into the Promised Land.
        • Deuteronomy: God gives Moses instructions for the second generation of Israel regarding faithful living in the Promised Land.
        • Joshua: God uses Joshua to bring his people victorious rest in the Promised Land.

        • Ruth: God uses Ruth and Boaz to fill Naomi’s emptiness by providing her with food and a son.
        • 1 & 2 Samuel: God exalts the weak and humbles the proud.
        • 1 & 2 Kings: God expels Israel and Judah from his presence in the Promised Land when its kings turn away from Torah.
        • 1 & 2 Chronicles: God provides hope to post–exilic Israel by means of an account of Davidic kings who acknowledge the Lord’s rule.
        • Ezra: God brings the exiles back to Jerusalem and directs that his temple be rebuilt.
        • Nehemiah: God moves the returned exiles to rebuild the wall of Jerusalem.
        • Esther: God providentially provides Esther and Mordecai to bring Israel deliverance from her enemies.
        • Job: God is active in areas and realms beyond our understanding.
        • Psalms: God the Great King provides the words of lament and praise that are appropriate responses to him.
        • Proverbs: God has placed an order in creation to which we should pay attention in order to live wisely.
        • Ecclesiastes: God prompts the Teacher to question the purpose of life.
        • Song of Songs: God depicts intimate human love as a gift and also a key to understanding his own love for his people.
        • Isaiah: The Holy One of Israel challenges his people to respond appropriately to his presence among them.
        • Jeremiah: God promises his people a new covenant beyond the necessary exile.

        • Amos: God judges his people for their social injustice.
          Obadiah: God will avenge Edom’s mistreatment of Israel.
        • Jonah: The Sovereign LORD‘s compassion extends beyond Israel.
        • Micah: God will punish his rebellious people, but promises future salvation.
        • Nahum: The LORD is sovereign over all and will judge Nineveh.
        • Habakkuk: God is my only comfort in life and in death in a world of seemingly unchecked evil.
        • Zephaniah: God announces to Judah the approaching day of the LORD.
        • Haggai: God directs his people to give priority to him and his house, and so be blessed.
        • Zechariah: God uses apocalyptic, eschatological imagery to encourage his people to
          complete the rebuilding of the temple.

        CH북스(크리스천다이제스트) 세계기독교고전

        두란노아카데미에서 발간한 기독교고전총서 시리즈는 외국 시리즈를 번역만 한 것에 비해 CH북스는 출판할 책을 직접 선정했다는 점이 눈여겨 볼만한 하다. 두란노아카데미 시리즈는 미국인들이 선정한 고전, CH북스 시리즈는 한국인이 선정한 고전이랄까.

        데이비드 브레이너드(1718-1747)는 일반적으로 교회사에서 북아메리카 인디언 선교에 생애를 바친 미국 식민지 시대의 한 선교사로 기억되고 있다. 그러나 그의 지속적 중요성의 그의 일기에 기인한다. 이 일기는 그가 죽은 후 영국과 미국의 복음주의 계통에서 널리 읽혀졌다. 본질적으로 하나님과의 관계에서 투쟁하는 한 영혼의 개인적 기록인 이 일기는 임종 직전에 일부는 브레이너드 자신이 편집하고, 조나단 에드워즈(1703-1758)가 일부 자료를 첨가하여 1749년에 출판되었다.

        브레이너드의 생애는 후세에 수많은 하나님의 사람들의 가슴과 생애를 뒤흔들어 놓았다. 그는 1740년대 미국을 휩쓴 대각성 운동의 주도자 조나단 에드워즈의 심장에 깊은 감동을 끼쳤고, 존 웨슬리의 마음에 큰 전환점을 마련해 주었다. 또 윌리엄 케리와 헨리 마틴, 짐 엘리엇 선교사의 마음을 움직여서 복음 사역에 종사하도록 만들었다.

        "모든 설교자는 브레이너드의 일기를 세밀히 읽어야 한다"

        이 책은 15세기 네덜란드 공동생활 형제단의 한 수도사인 토마스 아 켐피스가 본래는 수도사들을 위해 경건생활의 지침서로 쓴 것이다. 1427년 경에 완성된 이후 『그리스도를 본받아』는 시대와 장소를 뛰어넘어 전 세계로 퍼져나가기 시작했는데, 이 책은 초판 인쇄 후 1500년 이전까지 50번 이상이나 재판되었다. 1779년에는 대략 1,800여종의 판본과 번역본이 나오게 되었다. 그 이후 얼마나 많이 인쇄되었는지 파악하는 것은 불가능하다.

        『그리스도를 본받아』는 성 아우구스티누스의 『고백록』(세계기독교고전8)과 존 번연의 『천로역정』(세계기독교고전15)와 더불어 경건문학 중 최고의 위치를 차지하는 "기독교 3대 고전"으로 꼽힌다. 이 책은 마르틴 루터와 존 웨슬리, 존 뉴턴, 토머스 머튼, 디트리히 본회퍼, 마더 테레사, 교황 요한 바오로 2세 등에게 큰 영향을 끼쳤다.

        "지난 600년 동안 『그리스도를 본받아』는 전세계 모든 그리스도인들에게 경건문학의 걸작으로 이의 없이 받아들여졌다. 그 뛰어난 인기는 50개 언어 이상으로 번역되었다는 사실로 입증된다."

        On Westminster Theological Seminary

        According to John MacArthur, In "Why Every Calvinist Should Be a Premillennialist, Part 3" (Apr 15, 2007): "Westminster Theological Seminary, which, of course, is a seed bed of amillennial thinking"

        New American Commentary (NAC) Studies in Bible & Theology Series

        I found about this series because John MacArthur spoke very highly about the volume 3, Future Israel, during Part 3 of his sermon series, "Why Every Calvinist Should Be a Premillennialist" (2007/04/15).

        This series contain 10 volumes, published from August 2006 to November 2011. The publisher is B&H Academic, a division of LifeWay Christian Resources, one of five divisions of LifeWay. And LifeWay is affiliated with the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC). And as if proclaiming its affiliation with SBC, 9 out of the 12 series' authors and editors either have degree or teach at seminaries operated by SBC, and the other 3 at other Baptist institutions. Does that mean this series mainly portray Baptist views? The answer is very clear on the publisher's description of the volume 9: "The Lord’s Supper explores the current Baptist view of the communion sacrament." The same description also boasts: "Adding a helpful perspective, chapters are also provided on the Roman Catholic, Lutheran, Calvinist, and Zwinglian views of communion." Referring Calvinist view only as "a helpful perspective," and, especially, considering Calvinist view as a helpful perspective along the same line with the Roman Catholic view, it really gets on the nerves of a Calvinist, but the series does cover interesting topics and provide valid Biblical views.

        Length: 320 pages

        Release Date: August 2006
        Does the Holy Spirit do the same things now and in the New Testament times that He did in Old Testament times? Volume one in the New American Commentary Studies in Bible and Theology series for pastors, advanced Bible students, and other deeply committed laypersons addresses this challenging subject.

        God’s Indwelling Presence asks and explores to answer: What are the spiritual differences and similarities between Old Testament and New Testament believers? Did God dwell in Old Testament believers as He does in New Testament believers? Were Old Testament believers born again (that is, experience regeneration)? What do the words indwelling and regeneration mean? How is the Holy Spirit’s ministry similar or different during Old Testament and New Testament times?

        James M. Hamilton is Associate Professor of Biblical Theology at The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, Louisville, KY. Before coming to Southern, Dr. Hamilton served as Assistant Professor of Biblical Studies at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary’s Houston campus and was the preaching pastor at Baptist Church of the Redeemer.

        Length: 400 pages

        Release Date: January 2007
        Is believer’s baptism the clear teaching of the New Testament Scriptures? What are the historical and theological challenges to believer’s baptism? What are the practical applications for believer’s baptism today? Volume two in the New American Commentary Studies In Bible & Theology (NACSBT) series for pastors, advanced Bible students, and other deeply committed laypersons addresses these compelling questions. Indeed, Believer’s Baptism begins with the belief that believer’s baptism (as opposed to infant baptism or other faith proclaiming methods) is the clear teaching of the New Testament. Along the way, the argument is supported by written contributions from Andreas Kostenberger, Robert Stein, Thomas Schreiner, Stephen Wellum, Steve McKinion, Jonathan Rainbow, Shawn Wright, and Mark Dever. Users will find this an excellent extension of the long-respected New American Commentary.

        Thomas R. Schreiner is the James Harrison Professor of New Testament Interpretation at The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky.

        Future Israel - Why Christian Anti-Judaism Must Be Challenged

        Author: Barry E. Horner

        ISBN: 978-0-8054-4627-2

        Length: 400 pages

        Release Date: October 2007
        Future Israel: Why Christian Anti-Judaism Must Be Challenged is volume three in the New American Commentary Studies in Bible & Theology (NACSBT) series for pastors, advanced Bible students, and other deeply committed laypersons. Author Barry E. Horner writes to persuade readers concerning the divine validity of the Jew today (based on Romans 11:28), as well as the nation of Israel and the land of Palestine, in the midst of this much debated issue within Christendom at various levels. He examines the Bible’s consistent pro-Judaic direction, namely a Judeo-centric eschatology that is a unifying feature throughout Scripture. Not sensationalist like many other writings on this constantly debated topic, Future Israel is instead notably exegetical and theological in its argumentation. Users will find this an excellent extension of the long-respected New American Commentary.

        Barry E. Horner is pastor of Christ's New Covenant Church in Tucson, Arizona, and maintains a Web site devoted to the study of John Bunyan.  He holds degrees from George Fox University (B.A.), Western Conservative Baptist Theological Seminary (M.Div.), and Westminster Theological Seminary (D.Min.).

        That You May Know - Assurance of Salvation in 1 John

        Author: Christopher D. Bass

        ISBN: 978-0-8054-4761-3

        Length: 256 pages

        Release Date: December 2008
        The fifth book of the New American Commentary Studies in Bible & Theology series, That You May Know closely examines the theme of eternal salvation in 1 John. No other New Testament book speaks as frequently and explicitly to the believer’s confidence in everlasting life. The epistle writer grounds his reader’s assurance of salvation on the person and work of Jesus Christ and demonstrates that the believer’s lifestyle serves as a vital corroborating support for that assurance. This gives the commentary’s author Christopher Bass an opening to further discuss John’s emphasis on living righteously and what it truly means to be born of God.

        Christopher David Bass received his Ph.D. in New Testament from The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary and is currently preparing to plant and pastor a new church in the Greater Boston area.

        In this volume Mark Rooker discusses one by one the language of each of the Ten Commandments and its complete meaning in the ancient context. Adding a depth of understanding that can’t be obtained by looking only at the commandment itself, he shows how each commandment echoes elsewhere in the Old Testament, how it was violated in Israel’s history, and how it surfaces again in the New Testament. In conclusion, Rooker includes an extended section on the theological significance of each commandment and its contemporary implications.

        Mark Rooker is professor of Old Testament and Hebrewat Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary in Wake Forest, North Carolina. He holds degrees from Rice University (B.A.), Dallas Theological Seminary(Th.M.),  and Brandeis University (M.A., Ph.D.) and did additional studies at The Hebrew University of Jerusalem.

        Jewish Studies professor Michael Rydelnik argues against the view (growing even among evangelicals) that Old Testament texts historically interpreted as direct prophecies of the Messiah were not really Messianic in their original intent. “The Messianic hope” is widely thought to be merely a postexilic scriptural phenomenon, and some say the apostles engaged in what one writer called “a creative exegetical enterprise.”

        But without direct Messianic prophecy in the Old Testament, one of the essential arrows that Jesus and the apostles (as well as the later church) used to defend the messiahship of Jesus is removed from the quiver of contemporary Jewish missions. Furthermore, many New Testament texts are drained of significance that see Jesus as perfectly fitting a mold that the Old Testament
        writers built text by text. As Jesus told the Jewish leaders, for example, Moses “wrote of me” (John 5:46).

        Michael Rydelnik is professor of Jewish Studies in the World Missions and Evangelism department at Moody Bible Institute in Chicago, Illinois. He
        holds degrees from Moody (diploma), Azusa Pacific University (B.A.), Dallas Theological Seminary (Th.M.), and Trinity Evangelical Divinity School (D.Miss.). Rydelnik also contributed to The Apologetics Study Bible and appeared in Lee Strobel’s acclaimed documentary, The Case for Christ.

        “As they were eating, Jesus took bread, blessed and broke it, gave it to the disciples, and said, ‘Take and eat it; this is My body.’”

        Sermon On The Mount - Restoring Christ's Message to the Modern Church

        Author: Charles Quarles

        ISBN: 978-0-8054-4715-6

        Length: 400 pages

        Release Date: November 2011
        Matthew 5-7, popularly known as the Sermon on the Mount, has been described as “the essence of Christianity” and inspired many commentaries. However, New Testament professor Charles Quarles believes a fair number of those volumes either present Christ’s sermon as containing an impossible spiritual ethic or instead dilute its message so much that hardly any ethical challenge remains. Also concerning, a recent Gallup poll indicated only one-third of American adults recognize Jesus as the source of this teaching that has often inspired people who do not even embrace evangelical Christianity.

        Quarles’ new analysis aims to fill the gap between these extremes by dealing with the important questions of whether believers can live by the Sermon on the Mount today, and, if so, how. Looking at the Beatitudes, what it means to be salt and light, and the demand for superior righteousness, he writes to restore this crucial section of our Lord’s teaching to its proper place in His church.

        Charles Quarles is vice president for Integration of Faith and Learning, professor of New Testament and Greek, and chair of the division of Christian Studies at Louisiana College. He holds degrees from University of Mississippi (B.A.) and Mid-America Baptist Theological Seminary (M.Div., Ph.D.).
