Demons and the Devil
ISBN: 9780691028484 / Angielski / Miękka / 1991 / 354 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In present-day Greece many people still speak of exotikNB--mermaids, dog-form creatures, and other monstrous beings similar to those pictured on medieval maps. Challenging the conventional notion that these often malevolent demons belong exclusively to a realm of folklore or superstition separate from Christianity, Charles Stewart looks at beliefs about the exotikNB and the Orthodox Devil to demonstrate the interdependency of doctrinal and local religion. He argues persuasively that students who cling to the timeworn folk/official distinction will find it impossible to appreciate the...

The Wrong Woman
ISBN: 9781421888170 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 204 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Having made final inspection of the knots of her shoe-laces and the fastenings of her skirt, Janet turned toward her "perfectly horrid" oilcoat, which, as usual, had spent the night on the floor. As it would never come off till she had tortured her fingers on the edges of its big rusty buttons, she always parted from it on unpleasant terms, casting it from her; whereupon this masculine garment fell into the most absurd postures, sprawling about on her bedroom floor, or even sitting up, drunkenly, in the corner,-which latter it could easily do, being as stiff as it was yellow. This time it had...

Creolization: History, Ethnography, Theory
ISBN: 9781598742787 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 276 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Social scientists have used the term "Creolization" to evoke cultural fusion and the emergence of new cultures across the globe. However, the term has been under-theorized and tends to be used as a simple synonym for "mixture" or "hybridity." In this volume, by contrast, renowned scholars give the term historical and theoretical specificity by examining the very different domains and circumstances in which the process takes place. Elucidating the concept in this way not only uncovers a remarkable history, it also re-opens the term for new theoretical use. It illuminates an ill-understood...

Satan's Cauldron: Religious Extremism and the Prospects for Tolerance
ISBN: 9780761833796 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 110 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Why is it that for so many to validate their beliefs they must deny the beliefs of others? Religious extremism is driven by fear, in many cases authentic, that is initiated by the certainty of death. Death is an unknown that every faith must negotiate and overcome in order for its adherents to achieve peace of mind. Because of death's inherent insecurity, any rival concept that threatens a religion's "safe haven" can prompt dramatic reactions. It is these reactions that threaten any chance of religious tolerance and perpetuate today's increasingly polarized and contentious environment....
