Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Melissa J. Barciela untersucht die Rolle des leidenden Körpers im Philipperbrief des Paulus. Sie verbindet drei zentrale Untersuchungsperspektiven - Paulus im Kontext antiker Philosophie, Körperlichkeit in der Antike und das Thema Leiden -, um eine neue Lesart verkörperter Sprache im Philipperbrief zu entwickeln. Paul's letter to the Philippians was written during the apostle's incarceration and repeatedly draws attention to the theme of suffering. Yet, interpretations of the letter have tended to overlook or downplay the role of suffering and its embodied nature. Melissa J. Barciela examines the place of the suffering body in Paul's letter to the Philippians, particularly as it relates to ancient philosophical virtue formation. She argues that the suffering body figures as a means of virtue formation, both Paul's and the Philippians', and that through this language the apostle forwards a constructive ethic of the body in pain. She also brings together three key angles of inquiry relevant to Philippians-Paul among ancient philosophers, embodiment in antiquity, and the theme of suffering-to offer a new reading of the embodied language in the letter.
