ISBN: 9780391042117 / Angielski / Twarda / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Early modern Europe witnessed changes in the social, political, and ecclesiastical structures supporting poor relief, but notions that sharp fault lines divide rationalized, secular poor relief from morally and spiritually motivated ecclesiastical charity need rethinking.

ISBN: 9780391042254 / Angielski / Twarda / 369 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. David Mayes proposes a new religious paradigm in early modern rural Germany.
