God and the Philosophers : The Reconciliation of Faith and Reason
ISBN: 9780195101195 / Angielski / Miękka / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. "I am a philosopher because I am a Christian," writes Brian Leftow. "To many intellectuals, this probably sounds like saying that I am a dog because I am a cat." Indeed, prejudice against religious belief runs deep in the academy; in particular, many philosophers hold that faith is incompatible with their profession. But Thomas Morris has met that view head-on by asking a distinguished group of philosophers to write about the union of faith and reason in their lives.
God and the Philosophers offers a series of highly personal, thoughtful essays by traditionally religious... "I am a philosopher because I am a Christian," writes Brian Leftow. "To many intellectuals, this probably sounds like saying that I am a dog because I...

Through years of living with and learning about Native traditions across the continent, Joseph Epes Brown learned firsthand of the great diversity of the North American Indian cultures.

Race, Nation, and Religion in the Americas
ISBN: 9780195149197 / Angielski / Miękka / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The pioneering essays collected in this volume bring critical new perspectives to the interdisciplinary study of racial, national, and religious identities. The authors demonstrate that one cannot study these categories of identity formation in isolation, but must instead examine the ways each intersects with-and ultimately helps construct-the others. This innovative theoretical perspective sheds new light on the role of religion in shaping the lives of diverse communities throughout the Americas and forces us to reevaluate the reductive opposition between secular and religious identities....

The Owl, The Raven, and the Dove : The Religious Meaning of the Grimms' Magic Fairy Tales
ISBN: 9780195151695 / Angielski / Miękka / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The fairy tales collected by the brothers Grimm are among the best known and most widely-read stories in western literature. In recent years commentators such as Bruno Bettelheim have, usually from a psychological perspective, pondered the underlying meaning of the stories, why children are so enthralled by them, and what effect they have on the the best-known tales (Hansel and Gretel, Little Red Riding Hood, Cinderella, Snow White, and Sleeping Beauty) and shows that the Grimms saw them as Christian fables. Murphy examines the arguments of previous interpreters of the...

Our Lady of the Exile : Diasporic Religion at a Cuban Catholic Shrine in Miami
ISBN: 9780195155938 / Angielski / Miękka / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Our Lady of the Exile is a study of Cuban-American popular Catholicism, focusing on the shrine of Our Lady Charity in Miami. Drawing on a wide range of sources and using both historical and ethnographic methods, the book examines the religious life of the Cuban exiles who visit the shrine. Those pilgrims are diverse, and so are the motives that bring them. At the same time, author Thomas A. Tweed argues, Cuban devotees of the national patroness share a great deal. Most come to pray for their homeland and to recreate bonds with other Cubans, on the island and in the diaspora. The...

ISBN: 9780195161557 / Angielski / Twarda / 323 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Recent years have seen unprecedented attention to faith-based institutions as agents of social change, spurred in part by cuts in public funding for social services and accompanied by controversy about the separation of church and state. The debate over faith-based initiatives has highlighted a small but growing segment of churches committed to both saving souls and serving society.

Holy War, Holy Peace : How Religion Can Bring Peace to the Middle East
ISBN: 9780195181036 / Angielski / Miękka / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The Intifada of 2000-2001 has demonstrated the end of an era of diplomacy in the Arab-Israeli conflict. The style of peacemaking of the Olso Accords has been called into question by the facts on the ground. Elite forms of peacemaking that do not embrace the basic needs of average people on all sides are bound to fail.
The complete neglect of deeper cultural and religious systems in the peace process is now apparent, as is the role that this neglect has played in the failure of the process. Building on his earlier book, Between Eden and Armageddon, Gopin provides a detailed... The Intifada of 2000-2001 has demonstrated the end of an era of diplomacy in the Arab-Israeli conflict.

Eros Unveiled : Plato and the God of Love
ISBN: 9780198267669 / Angielski / Miękka / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This unique book challenges the traditional distinction between eros, the love found in Greek thought, and agape, the love characteristic of Christianity. Focusing on a number of classic texts, including Plato's Symposium and Lysis, Aristotle's Ethics and Metaphysics,, and famous passages in Gregory of Nyssa, Origen, Dionysius the Areopagite, Plotinus, Augustine, and Thomas Aquinas, the author shows that Plato's account of eros is not founded on self-interest. In this way, she restores the place of erotic love as a Christian motif, and unravels some longstanding confusions in philosophical...

Mehinaku : The Drama of Daily Life in a Brazilian Indian Village
ISBN: 9780226307466 / Angielski / Miękka / 398 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22-25 dni roboczych. Thomas Gregor sees the Mehinaku Indians of central Brazil as performers of roles, engaged in an ongoing improvisational drama of community life. The layout of the village and the architecture of the houses make the community a natural theater in the round, rendering the villagers' actions highly visible and audible. Lacking privacy, the Mehinaku have become masters of stagecraft and impression management, enthusiastically publicizing their good citizenship while ingeniously covering up such embarrassments as extramarital affairs and theft.

The Cult of Draupadi
ISBN: 9780226340487 / Angielski / Miękka / 556 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22-25 dni roboczych. This is the first volume of a projected three-volume work on the little-known South Indian folk cult of the goddess Draupadi and on the classical epic, the "Mahabharata," that the cult brings to life in mythic, ritual, and dramatic forms. Draupadi, the chief heroine of the Sanskrit "Mahabharata," takes on many unexpected guises in her Tamil cult, but her dimensions as a folk goddess remain rooted in a rich interpretive vision of the great epic. By examining the ways that the cult of Draupadi commingles traditions about the goddess and the epic, Alf Hiltebeitel shows the cult to be singularly...
