A Boston Globe Best Book of 2015 A brilliant, disturbing portrait of the dawn of the culture wars, when America started to tear itself apart with doubts, wild allegations, and an unfounded fear for the safety of children.

Unclean: Meditations on Purity, Hospitality, and Mortality
ISBN: 9780718892562 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 212 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. 'I desire mercy, not sacrifice'. Echoing Hosea, Jesus defends his embrace of the unclean in the Gospel of Matthew, seeming to privilege the prophetic call to justice over the Levitical pursuit of purity. And yet, as missional faith communities are well aware, the tensions and conflicts between holiness and mercy are not so easily resolved. In an unprecedented fusion of psychological science and theological scholarship, Richard Beck describes the pernicious (and largely unnoticed) effects of the psychology of purity upon the life and mission of the church.

Unclean: Meditations on Purity, Hospitality, and Mortality
ISBN: 9781608992423 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 212 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Description: "I desire mercy, not sacrifice." Echoing Hosea, Jesus defends his embrace of the "unclean" in the Gospel of Matthew, seeming to privilege the prophetic call to justice over the Levitical pursuit of purity. And yet, as missional faith communities are well aware, the tensions and conflicts between holiness and mercy are not so easily resolved. At every turn, it seems that the psychological pull of purity and holiness tempts the church into practices of social exclusion and a Gnostic flight from "the world" into a "too spiritual" spirituality. Moreover, the psychology of purity...

The Vignettes: The Consolation of Kafka and Monet Unfinished
ISBN: 9781499631326 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The Vignettes: The Consolation of Kafka and Monet Unfinished is a collection of sketches and short stories separated from each other by a date. The designated date is where the Kafka and Monet console the author. This consolation part of the work, mimicking Boethius' Consolation of Philosophy, interrupts the reader giving the reader the impression that he/she is reading two books at one time, that is, the short story itself and the story inside the mind of the author while writing. It is unfinished, as the subtitle states, just as the conversation about the sketches should always be...

ISBN: 9780891123507 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 274 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Is faith simply a form of wishful thinking? Is belief in God merely a consoling illusion? So argued Sigmund Freud in The Future of an Illusion. And the force of Freud's argument continues to be felt as it features prominently among critics of religion such as the New Atheists. But was Freud right? Until now, few have directly examined the plausibility of Freud's argument. But here, in a groundbreaking analysis inspired by the religious types described by William James in his seminal The Varieties of Religious Experience, Richard Beck explores the motivational dynamics among "summer...

Beck was greatly influenced by the philosophy of Husserl and Heidegger. He calls his poetry ontopoietic.
