ISBN: 9783110465464 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 223 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych.

The subject matter ranges from medicine to astronomy, literature to magic, while the cultural context encompasses Islamic and Jewish societies, as well as Byzantium and the Latin West. What unites these studies is their attention to the methodological and...

Bede: Commentary on Revelation
ISBN: 9781846318443 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 343 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The Commentary on Revelation is Bede's first venture into Biblical exegesis -- an ambitious choice for a young monastic scholar in a newly Christianized land. Its subject matter -- the climax of the great story of creation and redemption, of history and of time itself -- adds to the Commentary's intrinsic importance, for these themes lie at the heart of Bede's concerns and of his achievement as a historian, exegete, scholar, and preacher. But Bede was also a man of his age. When he penned the Commentary around 703, speculation and anxiety about the end of the world was in the air. According...

Whilst recognising that these temporal perspectives may not be completely distinct, the volume shows how Bede s understanding of their...

Bede: On the Nature of Things and On Times
ISBN: 9781846314957 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The Venerable Bede composed On the Nature of Things (De natura rerum) and On Times (De temporibus) at the outset of his career, about AD 703.

But Bede was also a Christian exegete who thought deeply and earnestly about how...
