The Lyre of Orpheus
ISBN: 9780199751396 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych.

ISBN: 9780567041333 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 480 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The Re-Enchantment of the West challenges those theories that predict widespread secularization beyond traditional institutional religiosity. Spiritualities are emerging that are not only quite different from the those forms of religion that are in decline, but are often defined over against them and articulated and passed on in ways quite different from those of traditional religion. In particular, it is argued that such contemporary Western spirituality is fed by a constantly replenished reservoir of ideas, practices, and methodologies, which is here termed 'occulture'.

Anthems of Apocalypse: Popular Music and Apocalyptic Thought
ISBN: 9781907534348 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Popular music is no stranger to apocalyptic discourse. Whether focusing on biblical or secular apocalypses, musicians often want to tell us things about the end of the world we may not have wanted to know in ways we may not have thought about before. This volume seeks to introduce readers to some of these messengers and their anthems of apocalypse.
