Useful Learning
ISBN: 9781498202558 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 554 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Explorations of the English Baptist reception of the Evangelical Revival often--and rightfully--focus on the work of the Spirit, prayer, Bible study, preaching, and mission, while other key means are often overlooked.

Since its first publication in 2000, Baptism and the Baptists has become the definitive work on the subject.

However, in...

The Cambridge Companion to Berg
ISBN: 9780521564892 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 324 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The world of Alban Berg is full of paradoxes, secrets and allusions, but he was able to handle emotional and moral issues at a distance and with profound sympathy. His unhurried, almost aristocratic attitude to life and his extreme self-criticism in professional matters resulted in an extraordinarily small musical output, but it includes masterpieces such as the operas Wozzeck and Lulu, and his last work, the Violin Concerto. All of Berg's substantial works are discussed in this companion, which brings together a team of experts who write from a variety of historical and critical...
