Studies in Modern Religions, Religious Movements and the BÄbÄ«-BahÄ'Ä« Faiths
Reihe: - Numen Book Series, Band: 104
Herausgeber:in:
In this book leading scholars contribute comprehensive studies of the religious movements in the late 18th and 19th centuries: the Hassidic movements in Judaism, the Mormon religion, in Christianity, and the BÄbÄ«-BahÄâÄ« faiths in ShÄ«âte Islam. The studies, introduced by the editorâs analysis of the underlying common source of this religious activity, lead the reader into a rich world of messianism, millenniarism and eschatological thought fueling the intense modern developments in the three major monotheistic religions.
