When Faith Meets Reason: Religion Scholars Reflect on Their Spiritual Journeys
ISBN: 9781598150100 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. What happens to faith when the creeds and confessions can no longer be squared with historical and empirical evidence? Most critical scholars have wrestled with this question. Some have found ways to reconcile their personal religious belief with the scholarship they practice. Others have chosen to reconstruct their view of religious meaning in light of what they have learned. But most have tended not to share those views in a public forum. And that brings up a second question: at what point does the discrepancy between what I know, or think I know, and what I am willing to say publicly...

Art and the Christian Apocrypha
ISBN: 9780415233927 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Christian canon of scripture, known as the New Testament, excluded many of the church's traditional stories about its origins.

Neighbourhood and Community in Paris, 1740-1790
ISBN: 9780521522311 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In the second half of the eighteenth century, Paris was the second largest city in Europe, with a population of some half a million. Contemporary writers described it as anonymous and chaotic, and so it must have seemed to many new arrivals from the provinces. Yet the records of the local police officials, which have remained virtually untouched for two hundred years, reveal a world which was far from anonymous, where most people went about their daily affairs in streets and shops where not only the places but also the faces were familiar. From the mass of individual disputes and incidents...
