ISBN: 9780268040161 / Angielski / Miękka / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Riotous Performances explores the significance of theatre riots and other disruptive practices that occurred in Dublin playhouses between 1712 and 1784.

American Apocalypse: Yankee Protestants and the Civil War 1860-1869
ISBN: 9780300021523 / Angielski / Twarda / 278 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

After examining the antebellum origins of the concept of America as a redeemer nation, he investigates the churches' use of familiar dogmas--principally that of millennialism--to interpret the experience of the Civil War and Reconstruction.
Moorhead studies the words of leading theological spokesmen, the popular... Especially in times of war Americans have claimed for their nation a unique world mission, often defining it in religious terms. James Moorhead analyz...
