Autorenporträt

Cardinal-elect Timothy Radcliffe has been long been one of the most popular preachers across the globe, speaking in retreats which he gives in English or in his equally fluent French. Radcliffe has spent most of his life as a Dominican based at the order's Blackfriars base in Oxford, apart from his nine years as master of the order in Rome, but has always travelled widely, being in huge demand as a speaker. His books have been bestsellers, particularly I Call You Friends, Seven Last Words and What Is the Point of Being a Christian?, which won the 2007 Michael Ramsey Prize for theological writing. His other books include Alive in God and Take the Plunge, all published by Bloomsbury Continuum. Lukasz Popko is a Biblical scholar. Polish by birth, a Dominican preacher, lives in Jerusalem where he teaches the Old Testament and ancient history at the French Biblical and Archaeological School (Ecole Biblique). He is also the editorial director of The Bible in Its Traditions project. His present and main research project is the critical edition of the Book of Kings of the Hebrew Bible.
