ONE WORD, MANY VERSIONS: A RE- READING OF THE HOLY BOOKS (EDITORS DR. RUWAN PALAPATHWALA & DR. ABRAHAM KARICKAM)

The second International Intertextuality conference on Holy Books was held at Marthoma Jubilee Mandiram, Kottarakara in 2007 based on the theme "One word many versions: A re-reading of the Holy Books".  The specialty of this conference was that the URI Moral Imagination peace building team also participated in this program. There were 25 participants from different parts of the world in this team, icluding Rev. Canon Dr. Charles Gibbs, Sally Mahe, Barbara Hartford, Marites Africa and so on.

The concept that different Holy Books are like different chapters of one book is the underlying philosophy of this volume. All the papers presented during the conference are included in this book. The philosophical concepts that are discussed in this book will be extremely useful to any student of theology and epistemology. 

The book comes with a foreword by Dr. Abraham Mar Paulos Episcopa. it was published by Dr. Alexander Marthoma Centre for Dialogue, Kottarakkara and Cosmic Community Centre, Karickam.
