This charismatic church has been regarded as one of the most extreme Pentecostal sects in the country. In addition to attention-getting maneuvers such as wearing purple suits with glitzy jewelry, purchasing high profile real estate, and conducting baptisms in city streets with a fire hose, the flamboyant Grace reputedly accepted massive donations from his poverty-stricken followers and used the money to live lavishly. It was assumed by many that Grace was the charismatic glue that held his church together, and that once he was gone the institution would disintegrate. Instead, following his 1960 death there was a period of confusion, restructuring, and streamlining. Today the House of Prayer remains an active church with a national membership in the tens of thousands.Daddy Grace: A Celebrity Preacher and His House of Prayer seriously examines the religious nature of the House of Prayer, the dimensions of Grace’s leadership strategies, and the connections between his often ostentatious acts and the intentional infrastructure of the House of Prayer. Furthermore, woven through the text are analyses of the race, class, and gender issues manifest in the House of Prayer structure under Grace’s aegis.Marie W. Dallam here offers both a religious history of the House of Prayer as an institution and an intellectual history of its colorful and enigmatic leader.Religion, race, and ethnicity.RELIGION / Christianity / Pentecostal & CharismaticbisacshElectronic books.RELIGION / Christianity / Pentecostal & Charismatic.289.9/4Dallam Marie W1029200MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910451833403321Daddy Grace2445485UNINA05054nam 2200793 a 450 991078567300332120200520144314.01-282-95092-4978661295092690-474-4152-410.1163/ej.9789004179172.i-438(CKB)2670000000067762(EBL)634875(OCoLC)695982111(SSID)ssj0000444655(PQKBManifestationID)11332540(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000444655(PQKBWorkID)10471395(PQKB)10117036(MiAaPQ)EBC634875(OCoLC)425282197(nllekb)BRILL9789047441526(Au-PeEL)EBL634875(CaPaEBR)ebr10439117(CaONFJC)MIL295092(PPN)170755916(EXLCZ)99267000000006776220090715d2010 uy 0engurcn|||||||||txtccrWestern Europe, Eastern Europe and world development, 13th-18th centuries[electronic resource] collection of essays of Marian Małowist /edited by Jean Batou and Henryk SzlajferLeiden [Netherlands] ;Boston Brill20101 online resource (448 p.)Studies in critical social sciences,1573-4234 ;v. 16Description based upon print version of record.90-04-17917-8 Includes bibliographical references and index.Preface: "Marian Małowist : an appreciation" / Immanuel Wallerstein -- Introduction: "I chased after Polish grain all over the world" / Jean Batou and Henryk Szlajfer -- Commercial capitalism and agriculture -- Merchant credit and the putting-out system : rural production during the Middle Ages -- Some remarks on the role of merchant capital in Eastern Europe in the late Middle Ages -- Kaffa : the Genoese colony in Crimea and the Eastern question (1453-1475) -- Levantine trade with Eastern Europe in the 16th Century : some problems -- Poland, Russia and Western trade in the 15th and 16th centuries -- The problem of the inequality of economic development in Europe in the later Middle Ages -- Problems of the growth of the national economy of Central-Eastern Europe in the late Middle Ages -- East and West Europe in the 13th-16th centuries : confrontation of social and economic structures -- Economic and political divisions in medieval and early modern Europe -- Eastern Europe and the countries of the Iberian Peninsula : parallels and contrasts -- The social and economic stability of the Western Sudan in the Middle Ages -- The Western Sudan in the Middle Ages : underdevelopment in the empires of the Western Sudan Hopkins-Małowist debate -- Social and economic life in Timur's empire -- New Saray, capital of the Golden Horde -- The foundations of European expansion in Africa in the 16th century : Europe, Maghreb and Western Sudan -- Portuguese expansion in Africa and European economy at the turn of the 15th century -- Gulf of Guinea countries in the 15th and early 16th century.\'This collection of essays is most welcome. The main articles of Marian Małowist are collected together (and in many cases translated into English) for the first time. Małowist, who is one of the major economic historians of the twentieth century, is also a much neglected one. Of the eighteen articles here, only five were published in English-language journals that are widely read by historians and social scientists, and even these journals are primarily read by economic historians. So most scholars have been missing out on one of the most fertile and cultivated minds who have written on the central issue of our times - the wide and widening gulf between the core and the periphery, the North and the South, western and eastern Europe\' (Immanuel Wallerstein).Studies in critical social sciences ;v. 16.Economic developmentHistoryNorth and southHistoryEconomic historyMedieval, 500-1500Economic history16th centuryEconomic history1600-1750Europe, WesternEconomic conditionsEurope, EasternEconomic conditionsEurope, WesternRelationsEurope, EasternEurope, EasternRelationsEurope, WesternEuropeForeign economic relationsEconomic developmentHistory.North and southHistory.Economic historyEconomic historyEconomic history330.94/02Małowist Marian212146Batou Jean148685Szlajfer Henryk1475989MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910785673003321Western Europe, Eastern Europe and world development, 13th-18th centuries3761635UNINA
