{"product_id":"john-mason-neale-and-the-leon-litvack-9780198263517","title":"John Mason Neale and the Quest for Sobornost","description":"John Mason Neale (1818-1866), the famous Victorian divine, hymnologist, novelist, historian, and author of the carol \"Good King Wenceslas,\" was also noted for his interest in ecumenism. This book traces Neale's interest in the Orthodox church, as expressed through his historical writings, translations of Greek hymns, and novels set in the Christian East. The work is based on a wide variety of manuscript and published sources for the subject, and demonstrates how this leading light in Anglo-Catholic revival acted as an exemplary interpreter of Byzantium and Eastern Orthodoxy to the Victorian England of his day. Neale's life and work provide a shining example of how two very different cultures and traditions can approach each other, with fruitful results for both.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Leon Litvack\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0198263511\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780198263517\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Clarendon Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/10\/1994\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 310\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.81d","brand":"Leon Litvack","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47419010908415,"sku":"9780198263517","price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_64066d24-9250-45e3-85e0-d24726004f54.jpg?v=1761508904","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/john-mason-neale-and-the-leon-litvack-9780198263517","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
