This book is the first biography of a fascinating and influential individual, presented alongside a selection of his writings, including all his articles on Shakespeare. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrom his student days in Oxford, Bittleston was a close friend of William Golding, author of \u003ci\u003eLord of the Flies\u003c\/i\u003e and an unpublished journal, on which this book draws. Bittleston was also gifted with the written word, as well as being a much sought after spiritual counselor. His wife, Gisela, once wrote that his main interest was to help people sort out their destiny. His knowledge of Shakespeare was equal to that of any academic or writer of his time, and most of his books and articles draw deeply on Shakespeare's work. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEssays in other sections of the book were selected to reflect Bittleston's broad reading and deep knowledge of language, history, and the spirit of the English people, as well as religion and the Gospels. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHe was also recognized as one of the foremost theologians of The Christian Community in Britain. He was able to translate spiritual ideas into modern life and was the author of several books, including \u003ci\u003eMeditative Prayers for Today\u003c\/i\u003e (1953), \u003ci\u003eHuman Needs and Cosmic Answers: The Spirit of the Circling Stars\u003c\/i\u003e (1975), \u003ci\u003eOur Spiritual Companions\u003c\/i\u003e (1983), \u003ci\u003eThe Seven Planets\u003c\/i\u003e (1985), \u003ci\u003eFrom Loneliness to Connection\u003c\/i\u003e (1987), and \u003ci\u003eCounselling and Spiritual Development\u003c\/i\u003e (1988).","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49518496350481,"sku":"CIN0684193264G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":52848942645521,"sku":"CIN0684193264VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53223726055697,"sku":"GOR007438681","price":19.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0684193264.jpg?v=1750912495","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/fr-fr\/products\/daniel-barenboim-livre-daniel-barenboim-9780684193267","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
