ISBN: 9789004140134 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 255 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This first history of the Rashīdi Aḥmadiyya argues for a new explanation of the great Sufi revival of the eighteenth century, and also defines a new paradigm of development and change in Sufi orders. In his study of one widespread Sufi order over two centuries and three continents, the author identifies a repeating cycle in which a section of an order rises under a great shaykh, splits, and stabilizes. Though each great shaykh seems to remake the order with little reference to what has gone before, there are in fact two constants through all cycles: the written literature of the...

A pioneer in queer theory and literary studies, Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick brings together for the first time in Touching Feeling her most powerful explorations of emotion and expression.

Esoteric Transfers and Constructions: Judaism, Christianity, and Islam
ISBN: 9783030617905 / Angielski / Miękka / 2022 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Similarities between esoteric and mystical currents in different religious traditions have long interested scholars. This book takes a new look at the relationship between such currents. It advances a discussion that started with the search for religious essences, archetypes, and universals, from William James to Eranos.

An alternative explanation was advanced by diffusionists: that there were transfers between different traditions. This...
