Filled with detailed explanations, captivating illustrations, and entertaining trivia, this clearly written, lively, and uniquely designed book offers a comprehensive introduction to the world of the theater from the box office to backstage, and beyond. Readers enter via the front door, where the people and activities of the "front of house" can be examined. And then it''s on to the behind-the-scenes magic of the "back of house" is revealed. Using the successful array of Disney''s shows as examples, readers encounter the people, places, occupations, and equipment of the theater world, and have the opportunity to investigate them all. From the box office and the usher staff to the dressing rooms and the backstage doorman, the reader may wander at will within this one-of-a-kind world, discovering the wonders of theater all along the way.

In Christian language usage, terms such as "baptism", "church" or "belief" are of central significance. They go back to the days of the New Testament. On the basis of the Pauline Letters, i.e. the oldest of the New Testament scriptures, the author identifies the usage of such terms and examines them from an historical semantic perspective. He thereby focuses on the Pauline use of the term ''pistis'' and its derivatives, which he examines and classifies etymologically with respect to the question of the emergence of a ''Christian language'', including the question of an adequate understanding of the syntagm ''pistis Iesou Christou''. While the current discourse is determined by the alternative meanings ''belief in Jesus Christ'' and ''belief of Jesus Christ'', this study proposes a new solution on the basis of etymological and idiomatic analyses.
