ISBN: 9781138623286 / Angielski / Miękka / 2018 / 242 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych.

The distinguished authors discuss issues related to definitions of history, postmodernism, critical theory, and the impact on the study and analysis of religious traditions; exploring the application of writing 'history from below', discussions of 'truth' and 'objectivity' as opposed to power and ideology, crises of representation, and the place of theory...

John Dee's Diary, Catalogue of Manuscripts and Selected Letters
ISBN: 9781108050562 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 350 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. John Dee (1527 1608), popularly remembered as an alchemist and spiritualist, was an enthusiastic scholar specialising in mathematics and astronomy, and collected manuscripts, early printed books and scientific instruments.

The Identities of the Beast from the Sea and the Beast from the Land in Revelation 13
ISBN: 9781498287609 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 198 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book aims to identify the beast from the sea and the beast from the land in Revelation 13 by studying their unique link together with the dragon in Revelation 12: the land beast is subordinate to the sea beast, which in turn is subordinate to the dragon. The early sections of the book provide a review of previous scholarship, the influence of Daniel 7 in understanding Revelation 13, and the Leviathan-Behemoth motif in several apocalyptic writings. The core of the book, however, seeks to demonstrate that the relationship of the two beasts and the dragon fits well with the tripartite...

Harnessing Chaos: The Bible in English Political Discourse Since 1968
ISBN: 9780567669599 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Harnessing Chaos: The Bible in English Political Discourse Since 1968 (2014) looked at the shifts in political understandings of the Bible in the aftermath of the social and economic changes of the 1960s. The book examined the decline of the Radical bible (i.e. the Bible roughly equated with socialism) in parliamentary politics and the victory of (a modified form of) Thatcher's re-reading of the Liberal Bible tradition, which equated the Bible with rule of law, democracy and tolerance. This showed how Thatcher's Bible was developed by politicians and the significance of Tony Blair's...
