Religioni, sette, movimenti spirituali di ogni parte del mondo hanno i loro miracoli che, soprattutto nella cultura occidentale, restano nascosti e schiacciati dal peso e dall'importanza dei miracoli cattolici riconosciuti dalla Chiesa. In un'indagine senza pregiudizi Carlo A. Martigli, da sempre appassionato studioso di religione e mistero, affronta l'argomento con lo spirito del cronista e dello storico che scopre i fatti e li registra, senza pronunciare giudizi. La penna è la sua videocamera.

The ancient civilization of Mesopotamia thrived between the rivers Tigris and Euphrates over 4,000 years ago.

In this eye-opening book, Matthew Rose introduces us to one of the most controversial intellectual movements of the 20th century, the "radical right", and discusses its adherents' different attempts to imagine political societies after the death or decline of liberalism. Questioning democracy's most basic norms and practices, these critics rejected ideas about human equality, minority rights, religious toleration, and cultural pluralism not out of implicit biases, but out of explicit principle.

Oggi per la Chiesa la situazione è molto difficile. Si tratta di una delle tante crisi che il cristianesimo ha vissuto o di un definitivo declino? È un interrogativo che inquieta anche chi guarda al cristianesimo dall’esterno. Ma crisi non vuol dire necessariamente fine. Può essere un’opportunità per aprirsi al futuro, sapendo che il grande rischio è accontentarsi di sopravvivere, rimpiangendo un passato migliore. La soluzione è vivere nella crisi. La Chiesa oggi è chiamata a una condizione di lotta, questa volta non contro nemici esterni ma contro l’indifferenza e il discredito.

Thought to have been lost for over 2000 years, "The Book of Enoch" resurfaced in 1773 and sparked an ongoing debate among historians and theologians on whether this ancient book was actually authored by Enoch, the great-grandfather of Noah. However, all recognise "The Book of Enoch" as one of the most essential apocalyptic works outside of the Bible. This 1917 translation by R. H. Charles is professionally narrated by Christopher Glyn, and it aims to provide those curious to know the contents of this cryptic and mysterious book with an enjoyable way to do so.

It is the story of a boy growing up in the war-torn Jerusalem of the 40s and 50s in a small apartment crowded with books in 12 languages and relatives speaking nearly as many. His mother and father, both wonderful people, were ill-suited to each other. When Oz was 12 and a half years old, his mother committed suicide - a tragedy that was to change his life. He leaves the constraints of the family and the community of dreamers, scholars, and failed businessmen to join a kibbutz.

The success of books such as Elaine Pagels's Gnostic Gospels and Dan Brown's Da Vinci Code proves beyond a doubt that there is a tremendous thirst today for finding the hidden truths of Christianity - truths that may have been lost or buried by institutional religion over the last two millennia. In Forbidden Faith, Richard Smoley narrates a popular history of one such truth, the ancient esoteric religion of gnosticism, which flourished between the first and fourth centuries AD, but whose legacy remains even today, having survived secretly throughout the ages.

Nonostante il crescente pluralismo culturale e religioso, la Chiesa cattolica resta una presenza profondamente radicata nel tessuto sociale del paese e ben visibile anche sulla scena pubblica. Nel dibattito sui valori è spesso terreno di scontro, ma anche punto di riferimento non solo per i credenti. Come si spiega tutto questo? E come sono cambiate, dal dopoguerra a oggi, la Chiesa e la società italiane?

Until his death in 4 BCE, Herod the Great's monarchy included territories that once made up the kingdoms of Judah and Israel. Although he ruled over a rich, strategically crucial land, his royal title did not derive from heredity. His family came from the people of Idumea, ancient antagonists of the Israelites.

At the center of The Dark Night of the Soul (La noche oscura del alma) is a poem written by the 16th century Spanish poet and mystic St John of the Cross. Consisting of eight stanzas, each of five lines, the poem outlines the journey in pursuit of divine union, within which the only source of light comes from the soul. This recording in English includes the poem itself and St John's two accompanying treatises (1584-1585), essentially commentaries, which offer line-by-line explanations of the poem. Many modern listeners have found guidance and consolation in this work.
