Virgins of God: The Making of Asceticism in Late Antiquity
ISBN: 9780198150442 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 464 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Many of the institutions fundamental to the role of men and women in today's society have their origins in late antiquity. This revisionist study offers a comprehensive look at how Christian women of this time initiated alternative, ascetic ways of living, both with and without men.

Die Reise des Narren
ISBN: 9783842378223 / Niemiecki / Miękka / 2011 / 38 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. "Die Reise des Narren" ist eine Reise in die Mystik des Narren. Jene Mystik, die wohl auch Anlass dazu gab, dem Narren eine besondere Rolle im Tarot zu geben. Dieses Buch ist kein esoterischer Leitfaden, kein Glucks-Ratgeber, kein humoristisches oder satirisches Werk und erhebt keinen Anspruch auf Weisheit oder Wissen. Es ist die Reise eines Narren, der dem unergrundlichen auf die Spur kommen will und seine Erlebnisse und Gedanken in elf Zyklen und typisch narrischer Form teilt.

As intelligencer to the Lord Chamberlain, Thomas Chaloner cannot understand why a man of known incompetence is put in charge of investigating the attack while he is diverted to make enquiries about the poisoning of birds in the King's aviary...
