Progress and Religion: An Historical Inquiry
ISBN: 9780813210155 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 198 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In this volume Christopher Dawson outlines his main thesis for the history of culture, which was his life's work. Anthropology, sociology, philosophy, religion and history form the backdrop for the key idea of his thought - namely, that religion is the soul of a culture and that a society or culture which has lost its spiritual roots is a dying culture. To Dawson, a return to the Christian culture that had formed Western civilization was the only remedy for a world adrift.

The Gods of Revolution
ISBN: 9780813227092 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 277 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In The Gods of Revolution, Christopher Dawson brought to bear, as Glanmor Williams said, his brilliantly perceptive powers of analysis on the French Revolution...In so doing he reversed the trends of recent historiography which has concentrated primarily on examining the social and economic context of that great upheaval. Dawson underlines the fact that the Revolution was not animated by democratic ideals but rather reflected an authoritarian liberalism often marked by a fundamental contempt for the populace, described by Voltaire as the 'canaille' that is not worthy of enlightenment and...

Mission to Asia
ISBN: 9780802064363 / Angielski / Miękka / 1980 / 246 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The narratives by John of Plano Carpini and William of Rubruck of their journeys to Mongolia in the middle of the thirteenth century differ from the majority of works in this series. The authors were not canonized saints or beati, and their travels were not missionary journeys in the strict sense, but were more of the nature of political embassies. Nevertheless, they were servants of Christendom as few men have been. They give a first-hand authentic account of the first contact between Western Christendom and the Far East, and this at the moment when the whole oriental world from...

The Movement of World Revolution
ISBN: 9780813220079 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych.

The Making of Europe: An Introduction to the History of European Unity
ISBN: 9780813210834 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In this work, Christopher Dawson concludes that the period of the 4th to the 11th centuries, commonly known as the Dark Ages, was not a barren prelude to the creative energy of the mediaeval world. Instead, he argues that it is better described as ages of dawn, for it was in this rich and confused period that the complex and creative interaction of the Roman Empire, the Christian Church, the classical tradition and barbarous societies provided the foundation for a vital, unified European culture.
