ISBN: 9780804768733 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Today's religious violence challenges our understanding of religion.

Kippenberg rejects the idea that violence and religion are inherently connected and instead considers the actions, motives, and self-perceptions of real people. He shows that the violent outcomes of the American tragedies of Jonestown and Waco were not inevitable. In both cases, law enforcement, the media, and anti-cult networks believing in the necessity...

ISBN: 9780691009094 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This book makes an unparalleled attempt to analyze the rise of comparative religion as a particular response to modernization. In the mid-nineteenth century and continuing into the twentieth, Western scholars began to interpret religion's history, drawing on prehistorical evidence, recently deciphered texts, and ethnographical reports. Religions that had been rejected as irrational by Enlightenment philosophers were now studied with enthusiasm.

ISBN: 9789004102354 / Angielski / Twarda / 1995 / 428 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This volume deals with secrecy and concealment in the history of mediterranean religions as pattern of social interaction. Secrecy is a powerful means in establishing identity and interaction as G. Simmel has demonstrated. Using his approach the scholars of this volume describe and explain the practical meaning of concealment in two different religious systems: in Egyptian and Greek polytheism and in Jewish, Christian, Gnostic and Shi'i monotheisms. This point of view reveals that all these religions shaped social norms concerning public and private aspects of the human self.
