Kabbalah and Modernity: Interpretations, Transformations, Adaptations
ISBN: 9789004182844 / Angielski / Twarda / 444 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

This volume brings together leading representatives of this ongoing debate in order to break new ground for a better understanding...
