The Girls
ISBN: 9781946022707 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) In their lovely old Cotswolds village, Janet and Susan are known to all the other villagers as “the girls” - a fixture. Partners in love and work, co-proprietors of a picturesque shop specialising in the work of local artisans and farmers, they lead an enviable, enviably settled life. So it’s no catastrophe when Sue, the younger of the two, feels the need to take a month to travel on her own, leaving Jan alone to run their stall at the Inland Waterways Rally Craft Fair. Nor is it any real threat when a kindly gay man named Alan lends Jan a hand in Sue’s absence, or when the two wind...

Other Dickens: Pickwick to Chuzzlewit
ISBN: 9780198185062 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In the first half of his career, Dickens wrote some of the most important novels of the nineteenth century, including The Pickwick Papers, Oliver Twist, and Martin Chuzzlewit. They are exorbitant and transgressive books, with an inventive comic force unprecedented in the English novel. In this, the first full-length study for thirty years, John Bowen blends contemporary theory and historical awareness to argue that they are radical in both political and fictional terms. With a tactful use of contemporary critical theory, he shows how their often uncanny power disturbs and transforms our ways...

Growing Up Christian: Why Young People Stay in Church, Leave Church, and (Sometimes) Come Back to Church
ISBN: 9781573834315 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 218 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Young people who grow up in church seem to offer great potential for the future of Christianity. Yet often that potential goes unfulfilled. Some give up on Christian faith altogether. Many more give up on church. Others persevere with both faith and church. And yet others return after a time away. So what makes the difference?
John Bowen suggests some of the answers to such questions. He has surveyed several hundred young people who "grew up Christian," and retells their stories about how growing up and leaving home affected their faith-stories that are often poignant, sometimes...

Muslims Through Discourse: Religion and Ritual in Gayo Society
ISBN: 9780691028705 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 376 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this rich account of a Muslim society in highland Sumatra, Indonesia, John Bowen describes how men and women debate among themselves ideas of what Islam is and should be--as it pertains to all areas of their lives, from work to worship. Whereas many previous anthropological studies have concentrated on the purely local aspects of culture, this book captures and analyzes the tension between the local and universal in everyday life. Current religious differences among the Gayo stem from debates between "traditionalist" and "modernist" scholars that began in the 1930s, and reveal...

On British Islam examines the history and everyday workings of Islamic institutions in Britain, with a focus on shariʿa councils. These councils concern themselves with religious matters, especially divorce. They have a higher profile in Britain than in other Western nations. Why? Taking a historical and ethnographic look at British Islam, John Bowen examines how Muslims have created distinctive religious institutions in Britain and how shariʿa councils interpret and apply Islamic law in a secular British context. Bowen focuses on three specific shariʿa... On British Islam examines the history and everyday workings of Islamic institutions in Britain, with a focus on shariʿa councils. These... |

Why the French Don't Like Headscarves: Islam, the State, and Public Space
ISBN: 9780691138398 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The French government's 2004 decision to ban Islamic headscarves and other religious signs from public schools puzzled many observers, both because it seemed to infringe needlessly on religious freedom, and because it was hailed by many in France as an answer to a surprisingly wide range of social ills, from violence against females in poor suburbs to anti-Semitism. Why the French Don't Like Headscarves explains why headscarves on schoolgirls caused such a furor, and why the furor yielded this law. Making sense of the dramatic debate from his perspective as an American...

The Spirituality of Narnia: The Deeper Magic of C.S. Lewis
ISBN: 9781573834025 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 148 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Many people love the Narnia stories. However, not all readers know the deep spirituality that underlies them. In some ways, the stories mirror Lewis' own wrestling with his spiritual longings, and seek to help others on the same journey. He wants us to feel, as he himself came to feel, that what we long for at the deepest level of our being is to be part of a great story, indeed The Great Story, in which the stories of Narnia and the story of our world and the story of our lives find their true meaning. John Bowen is a professor at Wycliffe College in the University of Toronto. He teaches...

The Economic Geography of Air Transportation: Space, Time, and the Freedom of the Sky
ISBN: 9780415749916 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Like the railroad and the automobile, the airliner has changed the very geography of the societies it serves. Fundamentally, air transportation has helped redefine the scale of human geography by dramatically reducing the cost of distance, both in terms of time and money. The result is what the author terms the 'airborne world', meaning all those places dependent upon and transformed by relatively inexpensive air transportation. The Economic Geography of Air Transportation answers three key questions: how did air transportation develop in the century after the Wright Brothers, what does it...
