ISBN: 9781469626581 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

ISBN: 9780195123937 / Angielski / Twarda / 1999 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych.

Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews: A Jewish Life and the Emergence of Christianity

Paula Fredriksen, renowned historian and author of From Christ to Jesus, begins this inquiry into the historic Jesus with a fact that may be the only undisputed thing we know about him: his crucifixion.
Rome reserved this means of execution particularly for political insurrectionists; and the Roman charge posted at the head of the cross indicted Jesus for claiming to be King of the Jews. To reconstruct the Jesus who provoked this punishment, Fredriksen takes us into the religious worlds, Jewish and pagan, of Mediterranean antiquity, through the labyrinth of Galilean and Judean...

In 'fragmented', paula xx lingers in the spaces most people turn away from - the silence after words fail, the shadows left behind by broken connections, promises, the unease that grows when the world feels unsteady.Her poems move between the deeply personal and the quietly political, circling themes of love, loss, disillusion, and the fractures within both intimacy and society.
