<p>"Compiled from state papers and the private diary of her Majesty Tzu Hsi's household comptroller, this fascinating account provides a contemporaneous view of Chinese court life between 1860 and 1908. With particular attention given to the Boxer troubles and the 1900 siege of the Legations, this work presents a remarkable account of Tzu Hsi's life and times. Included in the work are chapters on the parentage and youth of Yehonala, Court etiquette, the reform movement of 1898, and Tzu Hsi's death and burial. It is a fascinating work for Asian studies scholars and historians alike."</p>

China Under The Empress Dowager: The History Of The Life And Times Of Tzu Hsi

<p>La Iglesia Cristiana, aún en medio de las vicisitudes de su vida externa, de sus avances y persecuciones, aciertos y apostasías, victorias y derrotas, siempre ha tenido en su seno testigos de Cristo marcados con el sello del Espíritu Santo. La influencia de los Ireneos, de los Tertulianos, de los Ciprianos, de los Clementes y de los Orígenes, se ha hecho patente en todo momento y ha sido crucial para solidificar los fundamentos de la fe. Por ello, estudiar y conocer bien su historia es esencial. Ahondar en los comienzos y saber exactamente de donde venimos, no es una opción, es una necesidad. Y no sólo para pastores y líderes, sino para todos los creyentes. La Historia de la Iglesia primitiva de Backhouse &amp; Taylor, tiene el mérito de descansar enteramente en lo mejor de las fuentes originales y lo más destacado de la erudición. Aplica al estudio de los primeros tiempos cristianos el método intuitivo, cotejando el relato histórico con los textos de los grandes escritores de la época, conocidos como Padres de la Iglesia. Recoge los secretos de las catacumbas donde los primeros creyentes esculpían la huella indeleble de su fe, transcribe valiosos documentos y muestra la vida cotidiana de las primeras comunidades cristianas, en toda su sencillez, desde la Era apostólica hasta su fusión con el Estado en tiempos de Constantino. Ampliada y puesta al día por Alfonso Ropero, actualizada con los más recientes hallazgos arqueológicos, mejorada en su base jurídica de las persecuciones, enriquecida con una amplia bibliografía y publicada completa en un solo volumen, la Historia de la Iglesia Primitiva constituye, en estos momentos, el mejor texto de estudio disponible para todo aquel interesado en conocer y analizar el devenir de la Iglesia en sus comienzos.</p>
