Culture, Communion and Recovery: Tolkienian Fairy-Story and Inter-Religious Exchange
ISBN: 9781443840514 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Recent scholarship on Tolkien has been especially attentive not only to the importance of religion in his personal life, but also to the wider theological implications which may be drawn from his works. In this study, Alana M. Vincent argues that the cultural influence of The Lord of the Rings provides an excellent model for understanding the mutually transformative relationship between religion and culture, and in so doing also provides an important and unexplored pathway for inter-religious exchange.

Jewish Thought, Utopia, and Revolution
ISBN: 9789042038332 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In response to the grim realities of the present world Jewish thought has not tended to retreat into eschatological fantasy, but rather to project utopian visions precisely on to the present moment, envisioning redemptions that are concrete, immanent, and necessarily political in nature. In difficult times and through shifting historical contexts, the messianic hope in the Jewish tradition has functioned as a political vision: the dream of a peaceful kingdom, of a country to return to, or of a leader who will administer justice among the nations. Against this background, it is unsurprising...
