ISBN: 9780824820909 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 318 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Praying for practical benefits (genze riyaku) is a common religious activity in Japan. Despite its widespread nature and the vast numbers of people who pray and purchase amulets and talismans for everything from traffic safety and education success to business prosperity and protection from disease, the practice has been virtually ignored in academic studies or relegated to the margins as a uh_product of superstition or an aberration from the true dynamics of religion.

Pilgrimage in the Marketplace
ISBN: 9780415709194 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 228 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The study of pilgrimage often centres itself around miracles and spontaneous populist activities. While some of these activities and stories may play an important role in the emergence of potential pilgrimage sites and in helping create wider interest in them, this book demonstrates that the dynamics of the marketplace, including marketing and promotional activities by priests and secular interest groups, create the very consumerist markets through which pilgrimages become established and successful - and through which the 'sacred' as a category can be sustained. By drawing... The study of pilgrimage often centres itself around miracles and spontaneous populist activities. While some of these activities and stories may pl... |

Making Pilgrimages: Meaning and Practice in Shikoku
ISBN: 9780824829070 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This study involves a fourteen-hundred-kilometer-long pilgrimage around Japan's fourth largest island, Shikoku. In traveling the circuit of the eighty-eight Buddhist temples that make up the route, pilgrims make their journey together with Kobo Daishi (774-835), the holy miracle-working figure who is at the heart of the pilgrimage. Once seen as a marginal practice, recent media portrayal of the pilgrimage as a symbol of Japanese cultural heritage has greatly increased the number of participants, both Japanese and foreign. In this absorbing look at the nature of the pilgrimage, Ian... This study involves a fourteen-hundred-kilometer-long pilgrimage around Japan's fourth largest island, Shikoku.

Reconstructing Practical Theology: The Impact of Globalization
ISBN: 9780754666608 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 150 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book argues that the discipline of practical theology needs to be re-shaped in the light of the impact of various influences created through the encounter with globalization. Essential to this is an engagement with the insights of other disciplines, e.g. sociology, politics, economics and philosophy. The content and authority of the Christian tradition is being challenged by the blurred encounters with more fluid lifestyles, alternative spiritualities and indeed other faiths as mediated through information technology and the breakdown of attachments to all forms of institutional life....

End Times Deception
ISBN: 9781478783589 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This book discusses what the Bible says about Greek mythology, planet X/Nibiru, aliens, and giants. Also, this book talks about The Cern complex, earth changes, and inter dimensional portals/star gates. These topics should not be fringe topics in the christian community because Biblical prophecy is being revealed right in front of us. For too long the christian community has not addressed the aforementioned topics, and it is time for the church to offer some answers. Normally a complete account of Biblical History is not given, and the church does not understand what is going on. For I did...

"La Regle Du Jeu": French Film Guide
ISBN: 9781848850545 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 136 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Of Jean Renoir's La Regle du jeu (1939), Richard Roud noted: ""if France were destroyed tomorrow and nothing remained but this film, the whole country and its civilisation could be reconstructed from it.'"" An extravagant claim, but one that in the view of Keith Reader is justified. In this original, up-to-date, scrupulously documented book on one of the great films of world cinema, Reader focuses on La Regle du jeu in the context of both the time in which it was made and the currents of intertextuality by which it is traversed. He examines sequences from the film itself, its... Of Jean Renoir's La Regle du jeu (1939), Richard Roud noted: ""if France were destroyed tomorrow and nothing remained but this film, the who... |
