Om mig I'm a graduate student in anthropological archaeology, focusing on Biblical Edom in the Near East, at the University of California, San Diego. I'm interested in the history of archaeology and of Western exploration in the Near East. Religion in general, particularly mysticism, excites me. I also have very strong interests in Lovecraft studies, and occasionally publish on him.
I'm always looking to make connections with others who have similar interests, so don't hesitate to contact me.
Om mit bibliotek I'm particularly interested in developing my Lovecraftiana, religion, archaeology, and Near Eastern studies collections, but my interests are varied and eclectic.
I've read bits and pieces of most of these books, but when I tag a book as read, I've read it cover to cover.
Those tagged "Humanities Writing Program" are used in the curriculum at the University of California, San Diego's Revelle College, which I TA'd for six years.
These are only the books I physically own. I've read a number besides these, including some of my favorite books, which are not here. Some of these books were hard sought-after and expensively bought, others I rescued from rubbish bins. Fringe scholarship amuses me, but I don't practice it or believe it. Ownership of a book is not necessarily an endorsement of its contents.
I'd be very interested in discussing these and other books with members here.

Why did your professor like the book? Did he give you specific reasons? I think one of the main reasons I like the book is because of all the people in it that he meets along the way. It's actually given me an interest in reading biographies about biblical archaeologists.

This is actually rather unfair considering the fact that I have almost a 3.2 GPA, and I'm a member of Alpha Beta Gamma which is an honors society for business students. Now, when I change majors to transfer they would only really take my liberal arts credits to put towards a Religions degree, and those grades are even better than my business grades;
Anthropology - A
Philosophy - B
English 1 and 2 - A and B
College Writing - A
Psychology - A
Myth, Magic, and Mystery - A
Catch my drift? It really burns me that they wouldn't take me because I don't have SAT scores, you'd think I'd be a better cannidate because I'm a high school drop out and then rose to the occasion to prove myself in community college. So, I'm hoping that by getting my foot in the door at UMASS, it will pull some strings and maybe later I can get into a better school with a better Religions major.
So what are your thoughts on all that? ;-)
On a book note, I noticed there's one I have that atleast your not showing on LT. "Walking the Bible: A Journey by Land Though the Five Books of Moses." By Bruce Feiler. I'm reading it right now and it's actually really interesting. It reads like a biography of sorts, and it mentions many people I'm sure you know. I always like reading about people I've heard of before.
Also, have you ever seen the History Internation channel show "The Naked Archaeologist"? It's about biblical archaeology? Great show, I love it...
