Reimagining Denominationalism: Interpretive Essays
ISBN: 9780199767458 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Denominationalism--that ''free market'' mode of organizing religious life which, some say, manages to combine traditional religious claims with a free society in a peculiarly American way--is the subject of the previously unpublished papers in this collection. No institution, the editors argue, is as crucial for the understanding of American religious life, yet so much in need of reassessment as the denomination. In a wide-ranging collection of articles, a distinguished set of commentators on American religion examine the denomination's past and present roles, its definable nature, and its...

Miracles and the Modern Religious Imagination
ISBN: 9780300105322 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 332 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) According to surveys, most Americans today believe in miracles. For many others, however, a belief in miracles seems incompatible with a modern world view. Why does interest in miracles persist even in a secular era? Why are miracles such a controversial part of Western religious thinking? In this fascinating book, Robert Bruce Mullin traces the debate about miracles from the Reformation to the twentieth century, focusing particularly on the years from 1860 to 1930. He examines the way preachers, faith healers, psychic researchers, scientists, historians, philosophers, and literary figures...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) The high church movement within the Episcopal Church was antithetical to both the intellectual and social worlds of antebellum America, for it challenged the underlying assumptions of evangelicalism and held itself aloof from reform impulses.
