The Oxford Companion to Christian Thought
ISBN: 9780198600244 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 808 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Embracing the viewpoints of Catholic, Protestant, or Orthodox thinkers, of conservatives, liberals, radicals, and agnostics, Christianity today is anything but monolithic or univocal.

Indeed, the 260 contributors, who hail from twenty countries, represent as wide a range of perspectives as possible.

A History of African Christianity 1950-1975
ISBN: 9780521293976 / Angielski / Miękka / 1979 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The churches in Africa probably constitute the most important growth area for Christianity in the second half of the twentieth century. From being a number of rather tightly controlled 'mission fields' zealously guarded by the great missionary societies, Catholic and Protestant, they have emerged across the last decades in bewildering variety to selfhood, a membership of close on a hundred million adherents and an influential role both within their own societies and in the world Church.

The Construction of Nationhood: Ethnicity, Religion and Nationalism
ISBN: 9780521625449 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This interdisciplinary book straddles the fields of history, politics, religion and sociology, and medieval and modern history. Its importance lies in its contribution to arguments about the meaning and origin of nationalism, ethnicity and nationhood, and in challenging the widely-accepted "modernist" theories of Eric Hobsbawm, Benedict Anderson and others. Its argument incorporates careful analysis of English, Irish, South Slav and African examples, and suggests finally an important contract between Christianity and Islam.
