Elizabeth Fry: A Quaker Life
ISBN: 9780300165128 / Angielski / Miękka / 246 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

The result is a rich portrait of the struggles and anxieties behind the public persona of this...

ISBN: 9781602580626 / Angielski / Twarda / 230 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. "Margaret Fell and the End of Time" offers an unprecedented interpretation of the life and theology of one of the central figures of the seventeenth-century Quaker movement.

In doing so she demonstrates that Fell... "Margaret Fell and the End of Time" offers an unprecedented interpretation of the life and theology of one of the central figures of the seventeen... |

The Journal of Elias Hicks
ISBN: 9780979711046 / Angielski / Twarda / 540 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. For 175 years, the prevailing image of Elias Hicks has been a false one. His opponents in the Religious Society of Friends have successfully misrepresented him as denying Christ and the scriptures. In his last year of life, Hicks reluctantly penned a reply to these charges, recounting in his journal how God had ordered his life. But the published Journal was edited into a bland portrayal of one of the most dynamic figures in Quaker history. Paul Buckley has meticulously compiled a new edition of The Journal of Elias Hicks from the original manuscripts - most in Hicks' own handwriting - that...
