A Problem of Presence: Beyond Scripture in an African Churchvolume 2
ISBN: 9780520249042 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 321 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The Friday Masowe apostolics of Zimbabwe refer to themselves as "the Christians who don't read the Bible." They claim they do not need the Bible because they receive the Word of God "live and direct" from the Holy Spirit. In this insightful and sensitive historical ethnography, Matthew Engelke documents how this rejection of scripture speaks to longstanding concerns within Christianity over mediation and authority. The Bible, of course, has been a key medium through which Christians have recognized God's presence. But the apostolics perceive scripture as an unnecessary, even dangerous,...

The Limits of Meaning: Case Studies in the Anthropology of Christianity
ISBN: 9781845451707 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 252 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Too often, anthropological accounts of ritual leave readers with the impression that everything goes smoothly, that rituals are "meaningful events." But what happens when rituals fail, or when they seem "meaningless"? Drawing on research in the anthropology of Christianity from around the globe, the authors in this volume suggest that in order to analyze meaning productively, we need to consider its limits. This collection is a welcome new addition to the anthropology of religion, offering fresh debates on a classic topic and drawing attention to meaning in a way that other volumes have...

Part of The Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute Special Issue Book Series, the contributors to this volume share the conviction that anthropology can no longer afford to ignore the importance of the concept of evidence, either for the ways in which anthropologists carry out their work (methodology) or present and justify their findings (epistemology).

The Limits of Meaning: Case Studies in the Anthropology of Christianity
ISBN: 9781845455071 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 252 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. "Christian theology has given to the human sciences at large hermeneutics as an interpretive science of meaning. This remarkable collection of essays by anthropologists turns a keen hermeneutic sensibility on Christian discourse and practice itself, and in the process not only makes an important contribution to the ethnography of Christianity, but also offers a profound meditation on the theory of meaning." Thomas Csordas, University of California - San Diego "The Limits of Meaning is by far the best instance I've seen of the fresh and powerful insights anthropologists are bringing to the...

God's Agents: Biblical Publicity in Contemporary England Volume 15
ISBN: 9780520280472 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The British and Foreign Bible Society is one of the most illustrious Christian charities in the United Kingdom. Founded by evangelicals in the early nineteenth century and inspired by developments in printing technology, its goal has always been to make Bibles universally available. Over the past several decades, though, Bible Society has faced a radically different world, especially in its work in England. Where the Society once had a grateful and engaged reading public, it now faces apathy--even antipathy--for its cause. These days, it seems, no one in England wants a Bible, and no one...
