ISBN: 9783110114812 / Angielski / Twarda / 1988 / 499 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych.

In... The series Religion and Society (RS) contributes to the exploration of religions as social systems- both in Western and non-Western societ... |

The Anthropology of Global Pentecostalism and Evangelicalism
ISBN: 9780814772591 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The phenomenal growth of Pentecostalism and evangelicalism around the world in recent decades has forced us to rethink what it means to be religious and what it means to be global.

This volume provides a wide ranging and accessible, as well as ethnographically rich, perspective on what has become a truly global religious trend, one that is challenging conventional analytical categories within the social sciences.

Early Modern Exchanges: Dialogues Between Nations and Cultures, 1550-1750
ISBN: 9781472425294 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 276 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Marcus Gheeraerts s portrait of a Persian lady - probably in fact an English lady in masquing costume - exemplifies the hybridity of early modern English culture. Her surrounding landscape and the embroidery on her gown are typically English; but her head-dress and slippers are decidedly exotic, the inscriptions beside her are Latin, and her creator was an incomer artist. She is emblematic of the early modern culture of exchange, both between England and its neighbours, and between Europe and the wider world. This volume presents fresh research into such early modern exchanges, exploring how...
