Handbook of the Theosophical Current
ISBN: 9789004235960 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 506 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Few religious currents have been as influential as the Theosophical.

A second, substantial section covers most significant religions to emerge in the wake of the Theosophical Society - Anthroposophy, the Point Loma community, the I AM religious activity, the Summit Lighthouse Movement, the New Age,...

Alternative Christs
ISBN: 9780521889025 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 316 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Few, if any, individuals have had such a profound influence on Western culture as Jesus, even though not a single detail of his life or teaching can be confirmed with certainty. This lack of reliable biographical data has left his life open to broad interpretation. Jesus, gnostic and apocryphal sources insist, never truly died on the cross since he was a divine being, whose human frame was an illusion. Muslim sources affirm that Jesus was a prophet of God and will return at the end of time. Jorg Lanz von Liebenfels formulated racial theories in which Jesus was a redeemer for Aryans only,...

ISBN: 9789004162570 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 330 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In its historical development from late antiquity to the present, western esotericism has repeatedly been the issue of polemical discourse. This volume engages the polemical structures that underlie both the identities within and the controversy about esoteric currents in European history. From Jewish and Christian kabbalah through heretical discourse and interconfessional polemics in early modernity to the legitimization of esoteric identity in modern culture, the 12 chapters, accompanied by an editors' introduction, provide a cornucopia of relevant cases that are interpreted in a framework...

The Invention of Sacred Tradition
ISBN: 9780521175319 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The dictionary definition of tradition refers to beliefs and practices that have been transmitted from generation to generation, however, 'tradition' can rest simply on the claim that certain cultural elements are rooted in the past. Claim and documented historical reality need not overlap. In the domain of religion, historically verifiable traditions coexist with recent innovations whose origins are spuriously projected back into time. This book examines the phenomenon of 'invented traditions' in religions ranging in time from Zoroastrianism to Scientology, and geographically from Tibet to...

The Handbook of Religions in Ancient Europe
ISBN: 9781844657094 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 512 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. "The Handbook of Religions in Ancient Europe" surveys the major religious currents of Europe before Christianity - the first continental religion with hegemonic ambition - wiped out most local religions. The evidence - whether archaeological or written - is notoriously difficult to interpret, and the variety of religions documented by the sources and the range of languages used are bewildering. The "Handbook" brings together leading authorities on pre-Christian religious history to provide a state-of-the-art survey. The first section of the book covers the Prehistoric period, from the...

The Cambridge Companion to New Religious Movements
ISBN: 9780521196505 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 346 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. New religions emerge as distinct entities in the religious landscape when innovations are introduced by a charismatic leader or a schismatic group leaves its parent organization. New religious movements (NRMs) often present novel doctrines and advocate unfamiliar modes of behavior, and have therefore often been perceived as controversial. NRMs have, however, in recent years come to be treated in the same way as established religions, that is, as complex cultural phenomena involving myths, rituals and canonical texts. This Companion discusses key features of NRMs from a systematic, comparative...

The Reshaped Mind: Searle, the Biblical Writers, and Christ's Blood
ISBN: 9789004188402 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 260 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. A number of biblical scholars and theologians have had interest in speech act theory ever since J.L. Austin (1911-1960) outlined how a speaker can perform actions with words. John R. Searle has made a significant contribution to speech act theory after Austin by rooting his philosophy of language in the philosophy of mind; however, Searle's categories remain largely under or misrepresented in theological circles. In this book, the author works exclusively with Searle's categories to examine five NT texts on the 'blood-of-Christ' motif (Rom 3:25; Heb 9:12; John 6:52-59; Rev 1:5b-6; Rev...
