The Cistercian World : Monastic Writings of the Twelfth Century
ISBN: 9780140433562 / Angielski / Miękka / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. The Cistercian Order was born in Burgundy at the start of the twelfth century as a movement of radical renewal--an Order that survives to this day with the greater part of its written heritage preserved. This volume brings together a selection of its finest works, which speak powerfully across the centuries to modern readers. Writings by St Bernard of Clairvaux (c. 1090-1153)--including his letters, The Life of Malachy the Irishman, sermons on the Song of Songs and the sharply satirical Apologia for Abbot William--reveal him to be a highly individual and influential writer of...

The Service-Books of the Royal Abbey of Saint-Denis : Images of Ritual and Music in the Middle Ages
ISBN: 9780193152540 / Angielski / Twarda / 608 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (nie gwarantujemy dostawy w 2020 roku) A study of the music and ritual at Saint-Denis from the sixth to the sixteenth century, this book is based on an examination of the liturgical books and archival sources relating to the abbey, in particular the surviving service-books, which tell us much about the history of the music and of the Divine Office at Saint-Denis.

Fundamentalism and Gender
ISBN: 9780195082623 / Angielski / Miękka / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (nie gwarantujemy dostawy w 2020 roku) Fundamentalism, as the word implies, is about getting back to basics, and for Americans this has meant getting back to God's word as proclaimed in the Bible. Yet the issues that American fundamentalists have most hotly contested--abortion and the Equal Rights Amendment--have little to do with scripture per se. Why are these so central? Perhaps it is because the real fundamentals of fundamentalism are social, not textual. Fundamentalism often seems to be about "family values" and restoring women to their "proper place"--not just in America, but wherever the corrosive effects of...

The Divine Office in the Latin Middle Ages : Methodology and Source Studies, Regional Developments, Hagiography
ISBN: 9780195124538 / Angielski / Twarda / 656 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (nie gwarantujemy dostawy w 2020 roku) The Divine Office--the cycle of daily worship other than the Mass--is the richest source of liturgical texts and music from the Latin Middle Ages. However, its richness, the great diversity of its manuscripts, and its many variations from community to community have made it difficult to study, and it remains largely unexplored terrain. This volume is a practical guide to the Divine Office for students and scholars throughout the field of medieval studies. The book surveys the many questions related to the Office and presents the leading analytical tools and research methods now used in the...

Shenoute and the Women of the White Monastery
ISBN: 9780195129434 / Angielski / Twarda / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (nie gwarantujemy dostawy w 2020 roku) This book depicts the lives of female monks within a monastery located in upper Egypt in the period 385-464 CE. During this period, the monastery was headed by a monk named Shenoute; thirteen of his letters to the women under his care survive. These writings are fragmentary, only partially translated, little studied, and written in difficult-to-decipher Coptic. Despite these problems, Krawiec has used the letters to reconstruct a series of quarrels and events in the life of the White Monastery and to discern some of the key patterns in the participants' relationships to one another within the...

Worship Wars in Early Lutheranism : Choir, Congregation and Three Centuries of Conflict
ISBN: 9780195154399 / Angielski / Twarda / 354 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (nie gwarantujemy dostawy w 2020 roku) How important was music to Martin Luther? Drawing on hundreds of liturgical documents, contemporary accounts of services, books on church music, and other sources, Joseph Herl rewrites the history of music and congregational song in German Lutheran churches. Herl traces the path of music and congregational song in the Lutheran church from the Reformation to 1800, to show how it acquired its reputation as the "singing church." In the centuries after its founding, in a debate that was to have a strong impact on Johann Sebastian Bach and his contemporaries, the Lutheran church was torn over...

Religion in Global Civil Society
ISBN: 9780195188356 / Angielski / Miękka / 215 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 9-16 dni roboczych (dostawa może nastąpić po świętach) The extraordinary changes in world society at the beginning of the 21st century have involved religion to a degree that would have amazed earlier observers of modernity. Within the past decade religion has been associated with some of the world's most strident forms of political encounter, including new movements of nationalism, the clerical leadership of political sects, and the religiously motivated acts of terrorism. Religion seems to be trying to tear the planet apart, even as other cultural forces seem to be trying to pull it together. The technology of the Internet, film, television,...

The Search for the Origins of Christian Worship: Sources and Methods for the Study of Early Liturgy
ISBN: 9780195217322 / Angielski / Miękka / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 9-16 dni roboczych (dostawa może nastąpić po świętach) This is a substantially expanded and completely revised verision of Bradshaw's classic account, first published in 1993. Traditional liturgical scholarship has generally been marked by an attempt to fit together the various pieces of evidence for the practice of early Christian worship in such a way as to suggest that a single, coherent line of evolution can be traced from the apostolic age to the fourth century. Bradshaw examines this methodology in the light of recent developments in Jewish liturgical scholarship, of current trends in New Testament studies, and of the nature of the...

Italian Benedictine Scholars and the Reformation : The Congregation of Santa Giustina of Padua
ISBN: 9780198229346 / Angielski / Twarda / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (nie gwarantujemy dostawy w 2020 roku) European history from 1480 to 1570 was a period of turbulent change, political upheaval, profound moral questioning, and urgent philosophical speculation. This book explores the intriguing role of the almost-forgotten Congregation of Benedictine monks of Italy and southern France in the events of these tumultuous years. From archival and published records, the picture emerges of a closely-knit order of humanist scholars whose religious and philosophical studies later put them in a unique position to understand the Reformers. The book also casts light on the monks' fascinating reaction to the...

The Desert Fathers on Monastic Community
ISBN: 9780198263456 / Angielski / Twarda / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (nie gwarantujemy dostawy w 2020 roku) This study examines the life and thought of the Christian monks of fourth- and fifth-century lower Egypt. It is based on the collections of their sayings and stories which were compiled in the late fifth century, known collectively as the Apopthegmata Patrum, which reveal the Desert Fathers' deep concern with the nature of the monastic community which they formed and the problems which might affect relationships between its members. This study reveals the value that the Desert Fathers placed on community as an integral part of their monastic ideal, and shows that they rarely regarded solitude...

The Eucharistic Prayer of Addai and Mari
ISBN: 9780198267379 / Angielski / Twarda / 152 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (nie gwarantujemy dostawy w 2020 roku) The Eucharistic Prayer is the most central and distinctive form of Christian public prayer apart from the Lord's Prayer itself. It gradually evolved into fixed forms during the early Christian centuries, and the Eucharistic Prayer of Addai and Mari is almost certainly the oldest such prayer still in use. Gelston's study presents a critical edition of the medieval Syriac text of this ancient Eucharistic prayer. Accompanied by a critical apparatus and a translation, the book addresses such literary, critical, and historical questions as the parallels with the Maronite anaphora Sharar, and...
