Book Critique Scandinave de la Th  ologie F  ministe Anglo am  ricaine

Download or read book Critique Scandinave de la Th ologie F ministe Anglo am ricaine written by Hanna Stenström and published by Peeters Publishers. This book was released on 2007 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scandinavian Critique of Anglo-American Feminist Theology is a collection of articles by scholars in various theological disciplines from five Scandinavian or Nordic countries. The articles cover a wide range of topics, including feminist sexual ethics, ecofeminist theology, gender perspectives on European welfare systems, Birgitta of Sweden and a search for Mary beyond stereotypes. As the title implies, a critical dialogue with US feminist theology is a recurrent theme throughout the book, but the essays also include constructive work from different theological perspectives. The journal also includes a bibliography that shows the diversity of Scandinavian and Nordic feminist theological research.

Book The Bible and the Crisis of Modernism

Download or read book The Bible and the Crisis of Modernism written by Tomáš Petráček and published by University of Notre Dame Pess. This book was released on 2022-09-15 with total page 591 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A detailed study of the Catholic Church’s acceptance of the historical-critical method and modernization through the pivotal work of European theologians and biblical scholars. One of the few topics in Catholic studies that demonstrates a marked about-face in theological attitudes within the Catholic Church is the reception of the historical-critical method in biblical exegesis and its dramatic rise from outright condemnation in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries to its official acceptance by the 1990s. The Bible and the Crisis of Modernism tells the dramatic story of the ultimate acceptance of this modern method by the Catholic Church as it worked out the relationship between faith and reason in view of advances in the social and natural sciences. Particular attention to the contributions of Czech theologians to the field of biblical exegesis foregrounds the tensions at play in the church’s gradual recognition of the value of the historical-critical method to a better understanding of the Christian scriptures. In this extensive study of the church’s response to the historical-critical method, Petráček broaches wider topics, such as the relationship between the Catholic Church and society in the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries, the modernization of the church in the face of a changing world, the balance between institutional authority and individual freedom of conscience, and the balance between scholarly independence and ecclesial convictions. The attitude of the Catholic Church to modern scholarly research in many ways reflects its complicated relationship to the modern world in general, as The Bible and the Crisis of Modernism shows. Scholars in biblical studies, Catholic studies, and the history of the church in the Czech Republic will find Petráček’s work an enlightening addition to their collections.

Book Engaging the Church Fathers in Nineteenth Century Catholic Theology  The Patristic Legacy of the Scuola Romana

Download or read book Engaging the Church Fathers in Nineteenth Century Catholic Theology The Patristic Legacy of the Scuola Romana written by Joseph Carola, S.J. and published by Emmaus Academic. This book was released on 2023-06-27 with total page 689 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The twentieth-century patristics movement that contributed theologically to the Second Vatican Ecumenical Council is generally well known. Less well known, but no less important, is the similarly dynamic return to the ancient ecclesial sources that took place in nineteenth-century theology, which profoundly shaped the Catholic articulation of the relation of faith and reason, the development of doctrine, the Immaculate Conception of the Mother of God, and the nature of the Church. In Engaging the Church Fathers in Nineteenth-Century Catholicism, Joseph Carola, S.J., tracks the theological movement of the Scuola Romana, a contemporaneous, interconnected return to patristic sources pursued by Jesuit theologians at the Roman College—Giovanni Perrone, Carlo Passaglia, Clemens Schrader, and Johann Baptist Franzelin—and their precursors, interlocutors, and intellectual progeny, including the Tübingen theologian Johann Adam Möhler, the Oxonian John Henry Newman, and the Cologne theologian Matthias Joseph Scheeben. Situating these seven theologians’ lives and labors within the broader historical context of nineteenth-century Catholicism, Carola introduces readers to a rich theological world rarely explored, providing both biographical depth and attentive distillation of their writings, methodologies, and impacts. As Carola shows, these extraordinary theologians engaged the Church Fathers and the Church’s entire tradition with intellectual rigor, revitalizing the nineteenth-century Catholic Church at her very heart and providing, in turn, a refined patristic methodology and faithful theological vision that are just as vital for the Church in the twenty-first century as they were in the nineteenth.

Book Models of the History of Philosophy

Download or read book Models of the History of Philosophy written by Gregorio Piaia and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-03-08 with total page 647 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the fourth volume of Models of the History of Philosophy, a collaborative work on the history of the history of philosophy dating from the Renaissance to the end of the nineteenth century. The volume covers the so-called Hegelian age, in which the approach to the past of philosophy is placed at the foundation of “doing philosophy”, up to identifying with the same philosophy. A philosophy which is however understood in a different way: as dialectical development, as hermeneutics, as organic development, as eclectic option, as a philosophy of experience, as a progressive search for truth through the repetition of errors... The material is divided into four large linguistic and cultural areas: the German, French, Italian and British. It offers the detailed analysis of 10 particularly significant works of the way of conceiving and reconstructing the “general” history of philosophy, from its origins to the contemporary age. This systematic exposure is preceded and accompanied by lengthy introductions on the historical background and references to numerous other works bordering on philosophical historiography.

Book Gregory of Nyssa and the Grasp of Faith

Download or read book Gregory of Nyssa and the Grasp of Faith written by Martin Laird and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2004-04-30 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scholars of Gregory of Nyssa have long acknowledged the centrality of faith in his theory of divine union. To date, however, there has been no sustained examination of this key topic. The present study fills this gap and elucidates important auxiliary themes that accrue to Gregory's notion of faith as a faculty of apophatic union with God. The result adjusts how we understand the Cappadocian's apophaticism in general and his so-called mysticism of darkness in particular. After a general discussion of the increasing value of faith in late Neoplatonism and an overview of important work done on Gregorian faith, this study moves on to sketch a portrait of the mind and its dynamic, varying cognitive states and how these respond to the divine pedagogy of scripture, baptism, and the presence of God. With this portrait of the mind as a backdrop we see how Gregory values faith for its ability to unite with God, who remains beyond the comprehending grasp of mind. A close examination of the relationship between faith and mind shows Gregory bestowing on faith qualities which Plotinus would have granted only to the `crest of the wave of intellect'. While Gregorian faith serves as the faculty of apophatic union with God, faith yet gives something to mind. This dimension of Gregory's apophaticism has gone largely unnoticed by scholars. At the apex of an apophatic ascent faith unites with God the Word; by virtue of this union the believer takes on the qualities of the Word, who speaks (logophasis) in the deeds and discourse of the believer. Finally this study redresses how Gregory has been identified with a `mysticism of darkness' and argues that he proposes no less a `mysticism of light'.

Book Culture et foi dans la th  ologie africaine

Download or read book Culture et foi dans la th ologie africaine written by Marco Moerschbacher and published by KARTHALA Editions. This book was released on 2014 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Les contributions rassemblées dans ce volume, en mémoire au père jésuite Ludwig Bertsch (1929-2006), font le point sur quelques défis actuels de la théologie africaine. Ludwig Bertsch s. j. était un grand ami du Congo, pays qu’il a visité plusieurs fois. Il y a assuré des cours et a participé aux colloques scientifiques qui y ont été organisés. Pendant de longues années, il a été membre du Conseil administratif des Facultés catholiques de Kinshasa, aujourd’hui Université Catholique du Congo. Au sein de la communauté ecclésiale vivante de base Boyambi (paroisse Notre-Dame de Lingwala à Kinshasa), il a pu vivre de l’intérieur les retombées pratiques des initiatives pastorales déployées dans le diocèse de Kinshasa. Cette expérience sur le terrain lui a permis de publier en 1990 un ouvrage remarqué sur les dirigeants laïcs de communautés. L’expérience qu’il a poursuivie au gré de ses voyages et de ses nombreux contacts avec les agents pastoraux et les théologiens a nourri ses contributions scientifiques sur les communautés ecclésiales vivantes de base, les ministères laïcs, la liturgie et les tâches pastorales d’une Église congolaise authentique et inculturée, œuvrant dans une société en crise. Les contributions rassemblées dans ces Mélanges mettent en évidence le dynamisme de l’Église congolaise dont le père L. Bertsch se sentait un membre actif. En rapport avec sa riche personnalité, cet ouvrage présente des perspectives nouvelles qui éclairent l’articulation entre foi et culture dans la recherche d’une théologie en contexte africain."--Quatrième de couverture
