The Authority of Scripture in Reformed Theology: Truth and Trust
ISBN: 9789004163072 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The authority of Scripture is the cornerstone of Reformed theology.

After dealing with Calvin's Institutes, the development of Reformed orthodoxy, and the positions of Benjamin B. Warfield and Herman Bavinck, the author draws theological conclusions, advocating a renewed emphasis on the autopistia of Scripture as starting point for Reformed theology in a postmodern context. The subject-object scheme leads to separating the...

Co-published with the Calvin Center for Christian Scholarship (CLC), Geography and Worldview contains eight essays on the theme of geography and Christian worldview based on papers presented at a conference held at Calvin College in August 1996.

For example, an essay by David Livingstone lays bare the persistent relevance of assumptions...

ISBN: 9781842466049 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. If asked to describe a plant, many of us would have to resort to basic descriptors such as vague shapes or simple colors. But for those who work and write in the plant world, there are thousands of terms available for crafting the perfect characterization. A pear's shape can be called pyriform, while lemon's form is prolate. A petal might range from caesious (pale blue-grey or -green) to ceraceous (pale cream) to cinerous (ash grey). And the autumnal spread of fallen leaves is called, elegantly, leaf litter. The Kew Plant Glossary is a...

The Social Embeddedness of Media Use: Action Theoretical Contributions to the Study of TV Use in Everyday Life
ISBN: 9783110209242 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Scholars in the field of communication research have extensively studied television viewing in general and watching television news in particular. The book looks at the subject from an integrative theoretical perspective. Based on Schutzean sociology and action theoretical approaches to media use, the author argues that immediate social influences and other everyday life situations largely determine television use, and that the influence of short-term situational characteristics are often overlooked in person-centered explanatory models. In three empirical studies, the role of... Scholars in the field of communication research have extensively studied television viewing in general and watching television news in particular.... |

Coping With the Gods: Wayward Readings in Greek Theology
ISBN: 9789004436480 / Angielski / Miękka / 2020 / 594 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Inspired by a critical reconsideration of current monolithic approaches to the study of Greek religion, this book argues that ancient Greeks displayed a disquieting capacity to validate two (or more) dissonant, if not contradictory, representations of the divine world in a complementary rather than mutually exclusive manner. From this perspective the six chapters explore problems inherent in: order vs. variety/chaos in polytheism, arbitrariness vs. justice in theodicy, the peaceful co-existence of mono- and polytheistic theologies, human traits in divine imagery, divine omnipotence vs....
