Beaver, R. Pierce
Covers the period 1905 to 1962. Most of the collection, however, dates between 1948 and 1959. Contain letters, course notes, missions reports, business documents, bibliographies, manuscripts, associated work by colleagues and students, and general missions literature. Though there is a small collection of personal correspondence, the collection is mainly made up of institutional and academic treatments of missions and missions work. Most of this collection was compiled by Beaver during his time at the Missionary Research Library in New York and during his first few years as a professor of Missions at the University of Chicago's Federated Theological Faculty.
Tyconius' Theological Reception of 2 Thessalonians 2:3-12
In this volume, Karol Piotr Kulpa offers a coherent analysis of the reception of 2 Thess. 2:3-12 by Tyconius in his Liber Regularum and his reconstructed Expositio Apocalypseos. The author proposes and applies his own method for a reception history composed of historical, literary, and theological levels, which is constructive as well as analytical. In this way he writes a history of reception that not only finds its anchor in the past, but also builds bridges to theological questions of the present. In particular, the author identifies that motifs of homo peccati , mysterium facinoris , and discessio drawn from 2 Thess. 2:3 and 2:7 become Tyconius' "world-constructing verses" in his understanding of Scripture, and of the bipartition in the church's reality, in human nature, and in eschatological temporality. As a result, he offers a refreshingly 'ecumenical' reading of Tyconius, refusing to reduce his significance to that of a 'heretical voice' but re-envisaging him as a potentially authoritative theologian and exegete.

Piety and Patriotism
Piety and Patriotism is a collection of eight essays that explores the interaction of the Reformed Church with the American culture, from 1776 to 1976. The articles are arranged topically to correspond with eight important matrices in the American experience: the Revolutionary War, frontier expansion, immigration, international affairs, social-intellectual thought, social concerns, education, and the role of women.
