The Wayward Flock

Více o knize

Set against the backdrop of late nineteenth and early twentieth-century Germany, the book explores the decline of deeply religious Roman Catholic communities in the face of rising consumer culture by the late 1950s. Mark Edward Ruff examines the failure of traditional strategies that once effectively countered modernity, highlighting the challenges posed by contemporary influences such as motorcycles, Hollywood films, and foreign vacations. The analysis offers insight into the shifting dynamics between faith and modern society during this transformative period.
