Описание: In April 1988, the Vatican authorities provided a small sample of the Turin Shroud for carbon-14 dating of the alleged burial cloth of Jesus Christ.

Even if we accept that the Turin Shroud indeed is a cloth from the 13th or 14th century, does this answer all the questions raised before the radiocarbon dating? Judging by the countless publications that have appeared in the scientificand the popular press since, nobody seems to have managed so far. This book reveals the true origin of this medieval relic. The so called believers recognize in the apectacular image instantly the stamp of the Miracle Worker from Galilee, but was it not Jesus himself who denied the unique character of his miracles?

Описание: The crusades are often seen as epitomising a period when hostility between Christian West and the Muslim Near East reached an all time high. This edited volume reveals a more complex story, exploring how the Holy Wars led on the one hand to a reinforcement of the beliefs and identities of each side, but on the other to a growing level of cultural exchange and interaction.
