ISBN: 9780823238859 / Angielski / Twarda / 388 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Over the past two decades, the world has witnessed alarming environmental degradation--climate change, the loss of biodiversity, and the pollution of natural resources--together with a failure to implement environmental policies and an ever-widening gap between rich and poor.

An Orthodox Festival Book in the Habsburg Empire : Zaharija Orfelin's Festive Greeting to Mojsej Putnik (1757)
ISBN: 9780754656111 / Angielski / Twarda / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A transcription and translation of Zaharje Orfelin's 1757 festival book, "Festive Greeting to Mojsej Putnik", this book is one of the most comprehensive accounts of the festival life of the Orthodox hierarchy in the Habsburg lands.

In addition to the transcription and translation of the festival book, Jelena Todorovic provides a full...

Doctrine and Debate in the East Christian World, 300-1500
ISBN: 9781409400349 / Angielski / Twarda / 470 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The reign of Constantine (306-37), the starting point for the series in which this volume appears, saw Christianity begin its journey from being just one of a number of competing cults to being the official religion of the Roman/Byzantine Empire. The involvement of emperors had the, perhaps inevitable, result of a preoccupation with producing, promoting and enforcing a single agreed version of the Christian creed. Under this pressure Christianity in the East fragmented into different sects, disagreeing over the nature of Christ, but also, in some measure, seeking to resist imperial...
