Download or read book The Ethics of Beauty written by Timothy G. Patitsas and published by St. Nicholas Press. This book was released on 2020-01-15 with total page 748 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chaste and ardent eros for the Beautiful is the first task of human life, and falling in love with Beauty is the beginning of every adventure that matters...The original task of Ethics was to guide us to the most just and meaningful life possible. Today, ethicists define their discipline more narrowly as "the rational investigation of morality." This reduces Ethics to an examination of the Good by the True, tacitly suppressing the deep human need for the Beautiful.In The Ethics of Beauty, Orthodox Christian theologian Timothy Patitsas first considers Beauty's opposite, the dark events that traumatize victims of war and other ugly circumstances, and then invites us to rediscover the older Beauty-first approach to moral reasoning and the integrity of the soul.Covering topics ranging from creation to political theory to the Jesus Prayer, including war, psychology, trauma, chastity, healthy shame, gender, marriage, hospitality, art, architecture, theology, economics, urban planning, and complexity theory, The Ethics of Beauty lays out a worldview in which Beauty, Goodness, and Truth are recognized as indispensable elements of the best possible human life.

Download or read book Two Epistles of St Patrick the Bishop written by Mother Nectaria McLees and published by St. Nicholas Press. This book was released on 2021-06 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Saint Patrick - that towering holy man who chose to serve God through the Irish and became one of them - in whose wake monasteries sprouted, exquisite poetry flourished, and whose example inspired missionary monks to leave the island they loved in order to serve a greater love, has over the years dwindled in stature. This is partly related to translations of his epistles that did not reach the hearts of their readers or misconstrued aspects of his life that are more easily retrievable today.This new and brilliant translation of the saint's writings by Patricia Colling Egan clarifies misconceptions surrounding St. Patrick and restores the literate and educated missionary bishop and scholar to an honorable place in the canon of medieval religious literature. Patricia Egan, a descendant of a medieval family of brehon lawyers and scholars, has an academic background that includes early grounding as a Latinist as well as graduate work in historical theology and Irish history and literature. She has spent over thirty years producing this volume and its companion, I Patricius: The Roman History of an Irish Saint.
Download or read book Metaphysics as a Personal Adventure written by Norman Russell and published by St. Vladimir's Seminary Press. This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christos Yannaras is a philosopher, theologian, and political thinker widely regarded as one of the most important Orthodox thinkers of the twentieth century. He sees theology along with philosophy not as an academic enterprise, but as a serious approach to reality in all the dimensions vital to life today. A controversial figure, he castigates much of what passes for Christianity in the East as well as in the West, calling it a religionization of faith. In this book he responds to searching questions concerning his work, setting his thinking as a whole in an integrated vision of knowledge, truth, relationship, and salvation. --! From back cover.
Download or read book Everywhere Present written by Stephen Freeman and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most Christians living in a secular society have unwittingly relegated God and all things spiritual to the "second storey" of the universe: a realm we cannot reach except through death. The effect of this is to banish God, along with the saints and angels, from our everyday lives. Fr. Stephen Freeman makes a compelling case for becoming aware of God's living and active presence in every moment of our lives here and now. Learning to practice your Christian faith in a one-storey universe will change your life--and make possible the living, intimate relationship with God you've always dreamed of.

Download or read book I Patricius written by Patricia Colling Egan and published by St. Nicholas Press. This book was released on 2021-06 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if most of our common beliefs about St. Patrick simply aren't so? The truth of St. Patrick's life is more compelling than that of any fictional hero, and unlike many early saints, Patrick can be known through his writings. Viewed against the background of invasion and decline of the Late Western Roman Empire, the saint has much to teach us about walking on the waters of the world and what really matters. Classicist and historical detective Patricia Egan has spent decades investigating our most popular beliefs about Ireland's apostle. Widening the field with solid linguistic and textual evidence, Egan's view of Patrick's world is rich in imagery, credible as history, and allows us to rediscover the man and the saint as his own contemporaries knew him.
