Richard Hooker and Anglican Moral Theology
ISBN: 9780199216161 / Angielski / Twarda / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Richard Hooker (1554-1600) is often credited with being the founding father of Anglican moral theology. This book is the first major study to examine in depth the extent to which this claim is justified, and to evaluate the nature of Hooker's contribution to this aspect of Anglican tradition. The study roots Hooker firmly within his own historical context and considers his text principally on its own terms; thus it avoids many of the problems that have bedevilled modern Hooker scholarship, particularly where attempts have been made to 'claim' him for one particular theological tradition...

Foxe's Book of Martyrs
ISBN: 9781612035147 / Angielski / Miękka / 460 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Published early in the reign of Queen Elizabeth I and only five years after the death of the Roman Catholic Queen Mary I of England, Foxes Book of Martyrs was an affirmation of the Protestant Reformation in England during a period of religious conflict between Catholics and Protestants. Because the English monarch was the temporal head of the Church of England, a change in ruler could change the legal status of religious practice. Adherents of the rejected faith risked persecution by the State, and during the reign of Mary I, non-Catholics were publicly burned at the stake. Foxes account of...

Edward Bouverie Pusey and the Oxford Movement
ISBN: 9780857285652 / Angielski / Twarda / 174 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Oxford Movement, initiating what is commonly called the Catholic Revival of the Church of England and of global Anglicanism more generally, has been a perennial subject of study by historians since its beginning in the 1830s. But the leader of the movement whose name was most associated with it during the nineteenth century, Edward Bouverie Pusey, has long been neglected by historical studies of the Anglican Catholic Revival. What attention has been paid to him by scholars has produced a largely negative picture of this complex man. This collection of essays seeks to redress the...

ISBN: 9780199688067 / Angielski / Twarda / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book discusses the different understandings of "catholicity" that emerged in the interactions between the Church of England and other churches--particularly the Roman Catholic Church and later the Old Catholic Churches--from the early 1830s to the early 1880s.

It explores the historical imagination of a range of churchmen and theologians, who sought to reconstruct their...

Corn gods, dying gods, to fertility gods; Frazer explored and examined them all, identifying common themes throughout the world. The implications to Christianity were controversial: Either Christianity was myth like these myths, or else Christianity is true in its claim that all men are made in God's image so that no matter how far they fall from the knowledge of God, revealed or otherwise, they cannot...

Educating Anglicans: Investigating Groupwork in the Church of England
ISBN: 9781845195786 / Angielski / Miękka / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Specifically performed from a perspective of the Church of England, this study notes that the Church of England concentrates its congregational training in one kind group-based format called process evangelism, however such a format neglects more experiential and less directive kinds of group work, which may more effectively educate church members in Christian belonging. Surmising that a more experimental approach to group work might usefully be adopted, this study compares three different group formats one directive and two experiential on a longitudinal basis. Using interpretative...
