Conceived for students with little or no background in the academic study of religions, Religions of the World offers the most broad coverage of world religions supported by primary source documents, coverage of religions as they exist today, and integrated media resources. In preparing the eleventh edition of Religions of the World, Mark Woodward drew on his experience in teaching an introductory course on the religions of the world to thousands of undergraduates over the last two decades, living and working in Buddhist, Muslim and Chinese cultures for extended periods and on conversations with friends and colleagues in the Arizona Native American community. In this edition, he has edited the text closely for clarity and readability and made other changes to keep it up to date and accurate including updating all sections on religion today for each tradition. Religions of the World is comprehensive, readable, and engaging for all students.

La prima traduzione italiana integrale dei "Colloqia" di Erasmo. Con il testo latino criticamente accertato a fronte, in una edizione pratica ed elegante al tempo stesso.

Il volume raccoglie i pronunciamenti più significativi dei papi sul tema della pace a partire dal pontificato di Pio X. Il primo conflitto mondiale risveglia le coscienze: appare sempre più chiaramente l'irragionevolezza di ogni guerra. Benedetto XV, inascoltato dai belligeranti, si dimostra più realista e lungimirante dei governanti dell'epoca. Pio XI si scontra con le dittature e Pio XII conosce un conflitto di inaudita violenza. Giovanni XXIII, con l'enciclica Pacem in terris e il concilio Vaticano II, pone la questione su basi nuove: rivolgendosi a tutti gli uomini di buona volonta, egli dichiara improponibile una 'guerra giusta'e afferma che qualsiasi guerra moderna è 'estranea alla ragione'.

Pedro IbarraDemocracies are being challenged on new and different fronts: by globalization, by the fragmentation of postmodernity, by collective identities. Social movements challenge democracy by calling for readjustments in its decision-making processes. At the same time the social movements are forms of collective action that help the democracies--by keeping them in tension--to respond to the challenges arising from the other fronts. The book deals with this double relationship between social movements and democracy, the movements as challengers and as maintainers of democracy.

Fra le opere di Giordano Bruno apparse a stampa in edizioni cinquecentesche, 17 contengono xilografie, per un totale di circa 240 incisioni, in gran parte realizzate dallo stesso Bruno. A questo insieme di figure complesso e articolato il filosofo affida un compito basilare: poiche sono proprio le umbrae, le imagines interiori coniate sulle vestigia delle cose del creato, ad assumere quelle forme iconiche e quegli schemi mentali, simbolicamente efficaci, che divengono veicoli atti a condurre l'intelletto alla gnosi. Il volume, a cura di Mino Gabriele, offre il ricco corpus iconographicum bruniano nella sua interezza, esaminando tutte le xilografie in ordine cronologico, rintracciando le fonti, chiarendo il rapporto con il testo.

This 400th anniversary edition of the King James Version of the Bible is a reprint of the 1611 text, in an easy-to-read roman font instead of the black-letter type of the original. The original capital letters, many of which are pictoral, have been restored to each chapter in order to replicate the visual appeal of the early editions. The 1611 text is followed page-for-page and line-for-line, and all misprints are reproduced rather than corrected. The large body of preliminary matter, which includes genealogies, maps, and lists of readings, is also included. The text of the 1611 edition differs from modern editions of the King James Version in thousands of details, and this edition is the most authentic version of the original text that has ever been published. The volume concludes with an essay by Gordon Campbell on the first edition of the King James Bible.
