Women Living Zen: Japanese Soto Buddhist Nuns
ISBN: 9780199928682 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

Drawing on her fieldwork among the Soto nuns, Arai demonstrates that the lives of many of these women embody classical Buddhist ideals.

Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews: A Jewish Life and the Emergence of Christianity
ISBN: 9780679767466 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. 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...
