Product Information
General Francisco Franco came to prominence during the days of David Lloyd George and Woodrow Wilson and was able to cling to absolute political power until his death in 1975. Over his fifty-year career, he became one of the four dictators who changed the face of Europe during the twentieth century. Franco joined the Spanish Army when he was barely fifteen years old. In 1926 he became the youngest general in Europe and, driven by an astonishing sense of his own greatness, was recognized as sole military commander of the Nationalist zone during the Spanish Civil War. His ambition was always to hold on to the power that he had secured. In practice, this meant winning the Spanish Civil War and surviving the fall of the fascist regimes of Hitler and Mussolini and the international isolation that followed their defeat. But behind the military heroics and dexterous political footwork lay an insecure and vengeful man, wracked by contradictory impulses. Although fueled by a single-minded determination to succeed, he was full of self-doubt. A bold and sometimes inspirational soldier in Africa, he became an indecisive, hesitant military commander during the Civil War. Filled with a burning conviction that his destiny was bound up with the medieval kings of Spain and God Himself, he appeared shy, withdrawn, and humble. Ruthlessly intent on wiping out all political opposition, he denied heatedly that he was a dictator. A stubborn man, he could be remarkably flexible when it came to safeguarding his power. Gabrielle Ashford Hodges' psychological biography considers Franco's mental state, as well as his political motivation. In doing so, it succeeds admirably in getting under the skin of Europe's most enduring dictator.

Reviews
"A compelling reconstruction of the place of these gospels within Christian origins."--Religious Studies Review, Volume 29, Number 4, October 2003., The perceptive and witty insights of Marvin Meyer make his scholarly essays a delight to read. And contrary to some doubters, the Gospel of Thomas and the Secret Mark episode still provide vital clues for understanding Christianity's formative years.John Dartnews editor, The Christian Century, Marvin Meyer's new book, Secret Gospels,offers many new insights among hisknowlegeable and thoughtful discussions of these marvellous-and famouslydifficult-texts.Elaine Pagels, SHeavily documented, interesting, challenging, with a provocative glimpse into early Christian literary history and theology. “Currents in Theology & Mission, 4/04, These essays…are clearly written…Meyer's essays provide a useful introduction to manuscript-reading. Anglican Theological Review 87:2, "Meyer (Bible & Christian studies, Chapman Univ.; director, Albert Schweitzer Inst.) is one of our most notable scholars on the extracoanonical mystery literature associated with the New Testament--the Gospel of Thomas, the Secret Gospel of Mark, and the Gnostic Gospels. His new book deals principally with the enigmatic appearance of a naked or near-naked young man both in canonical and extracanonical writings dealing with Jesus. His book includes a respectful review of existing primary and secondary sources and culminates in a thoughtful comparison of the Mark fragments with the apparent myster-initiation depicted at the Villa of the Mysteries in Pompeii--without, however, directly dealing with the potentially disturbing implications of that comparison regarding Jesus' own role in religious initiation practices. Still, his book is a capably written and thought-provoking discussion of a perennial puzzle in New Testament studies."--Library Journal, March 2003, "The Gospel of Thomas and the Secret Gospel of Mark are two early Christian texts known in the second century, suppressed, or simply lost, only to surface in the latter half of the twentieth century. Marvin Meyer has been one of the few New Testament scholars to make them a focus of his research and to incorporate them into a modern historical construct of Christian origins. For over twenty years Meyer has investigated the less-well known and less popular aspects of Christian origins, its lost gospels, and the unfamiliar ancient culture in which Christianity became a Hellenistic religion. His collected essays on the two most notorious of these ancient gospels, Thomas and Secret Mark, demonstrates their importance for the origins of Christianity and brings them into the main stream of New Testament scholarship."Charles W. HedrickDistinguished Professor of Religious StudiesSouthwest Missouri State University, Springfield, Missouri, SThese essays are clearly written Meyer "s essays provide a useful introduction to manuscript-reading. “Anglican Theological Review 87:2, Heavily documented, interesting, challenging, with a provocative glimpse into early Christian literary history and theology. Currents in Theology & Mission, 4/04, If you wish to be hooked, read Marvin Meyer's erudite and compelling essays on the gospels of Thomas and Secret Mark, for his fresh study reads with the authority and suspense of Agatha Christie at her best. He commands first-century Greek, Coptic, and Syriac/Aramaic/Hebrew scriptures, their wisdom and messianic epiphanies and key recent scholarly interpretations. A distinguished biblical and gnostic scholar, Meyer immerses us in the light of an age, offering his syncretistic insights. Quietly countering those who would dismiss an early dating for Thomas, he makes this extraordinary gospel more relevant, citing Paul as one probably versed in Thomas's Jesus. With precision, innovation, and supple humor he calls a spade a spade.
