Download or read book The Death Penalty Volume II written by Jacques Derrida and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2017-05-31 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In this newest installment in Chicagos series of Jacques Derridas seminars, the renowned philosopher attempts one of his most ambitious goals: the first truly philosophical argument against the death penalty. While much has been written against the death penalty, Derrida contends that Western philosophy is massively, if not always overtly, complicit with a logic in which a sovereign state has the right to take a life. Haunted by this notion, he turns to the key places where such logic has been established - and to the place it has been most effectively challenged: literature. With his signature genius and patient yet dazzling readings of an impressive breadth of texts, Derrida examines everything from the Bible to Plato to Camus to Jean Genet, with special attention to Kant and postWorld War II juridical texts, to draw the landscape of death penalty discourses. Keeping clearly in view the death rows and execution chambers of the United States, he shows how arguments surrounding cruel and unusual punishment depend on what he calls an 'anesthesial logic, ' which has also driven the development of death penalty technology from the French guillotine to lethal injection. Confronting a demand for philosophical rigor, he pursues provocative analyses of the shortcomings of abolitionist discourse. Above all, he argues that the death penalty and its attendant technologies are products of a desire to put an end to one of the most fundamental qualities of our finite existence: the radical uncertainty of when we will die. Arriving at a critical juncture in history - especially in the United States, one of the last Christian-inspired democracies to resist abolition - The Death Penalty is both a timely response to an important ethical debate and a timeless addition to Derridas esteemed body of work"--Unedited summary from book jacket.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Opinions of Different Authors Upon the Punishment of Death, Vol. 2 Amy Dnay and Rose Callender were tried and condemned at Bury St. Edmunds, in Sufi'olk, by the Lord Chief Baron Hale an account of the trial was printed in his lordship's lifetime. They were tried upon thirteen several indictments; Amy Dnny was charged with bewitching Mr. Pacey's children, and causing them to have fits, and when Sir Thomas Brown, the-famous physi. Cian of his time, who was in court, was desired by my Lord Chief Baron to give his judgment in the case, he declared, that he was clearly of opinion that the fits were natural, but heightened by the devil, co-operating with the malice of the witches at whose instance he did the villanies and he added, that in Denmark there had been lately a great discovery of witches who used the very same way of afiicting persons, by conveying pins into them. This made that great and good man doubtful, but he was in such fears that he would not so much as sum up the evidence, but left it to the jury with prayers, that the great God of Heaven would direct their hearts in that weighty mat tar. The jury having Sir Thomas Brown's declaration about Denmark, for their encouragement, in halfan hour brought them in guilty upon all the thir teen indictments. After this my Lord Chief Baron gave the law its coursa, and they were condemned, and died declaring their innocence.

Book excerpt: In this newest installment in Chicago’s series of Jacques Derrida’s seminars, the renowned philosopher attempts one of his most ambitious goals: the first truly philosophical argument against the death penalty. While much has been written against the death penalty, Derrida contends that Western philosophy is massively, if not always overtly, complicit with a logic in which a sovereign state has the right to take a life.

Download or read book The Works of William Perkins Volume 2 written by William Perkins and published by Reformation Heritage Books. This book was released on 2015-10-12 with total page 954 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This second volume contains Perkins’s Commentary on Galatians . Perkins preached on Galatians each Lord’s Day for over three years. Ralph Cudworth obtained Perkins’s handwritten notes and edited them for publication. Because Perkins did not complete the commentary, Cudworth supplemented the manuscript with his own comments on chapter 6. This commentary of Perkins and Cudworth on Galatians first appeared in print in 1604, two years after Perkins’s death. Perkins’s other writings had already begun to be gathered and published. When the three-volume edition of his collected works first appeared, Galatians occupied over 320 large folio pages in the second volume (1609). It continued to appear as a part of several editions of the Works through their final 1635 reprint. Evidently, interest in the commentary warranted its publication again as a separate volume in 1617. Following the model taught in his treatise The Art of Prophesying , Perkins’s pattern in commenting on Galatians is to explain the text, deduce a few points of doctrine from it, answer objections raised against the doctrine, and then give practical uses of what the passage teaches.

Download or read book The International Library of Essays on Capital Punishment Volume 2 written by Peter Hodgkinson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-12-05 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays selected for this volume develop conventional abolition discourse and explore the conceptual framework through which abolition is understood and posited. Of particular interest is the attention given to an integral but often forgotten element of the abolition debate: alternatives to capital punishment. The volume also provides an account of strategies employed by the abolition community which challenges tired methodologies and offers a level of transparency previously unseen. This collection tackles complex but fundamental components of the capital punishment debate using empirical data and expert observations and is essential reading for those wishing to comprehend the fundamental issues which underpin capital punishment discourse.
Download or read book The Branch Exposition of the Bible Volume 2 written by Michael A. Eaton and published by Langham Publishing. This book was released on 2024-09-30 with total page 2690 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A great deal of biblical scholarship is written for academics and fails to edify readers or strengthen their Christian ministry. Yet, Christians need to be nourished by the word of God so they can mature in faith and righteousness. Filling this gap, The Branch Exposition of the Bible is a resource for preachers, scholars and ordinary Christians alike, to help open God’s word and shed its light into life, ministry and teaching. Inspired by the words of the great reformer Martin Luther about shaking every branch of Scripture, and with experience in ministering across Africa, India and the West, Michael A. Eaton helps us understand the meaning of the Bible and taste its fruit. Together with the New Testament volume, this exposition of the Old Testament accessibly engages with the biblical languages, gives application for our lives and leads us through each book of the Old Testament so that we can meet the resurrected Jesus Christ in the pages of Scripture.

This book was released on 2017-03-22 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A series of private disputation and letters, the second book in this three volume set starts to show another view on the Bible that challenges the works of John Calvin, Martin Luther and others. The aspect of self-determinism and the role of sin in a believer's life are dominant in Arminius's thinking while the other theologians in his time were focusing on the idea of determinism in the role of Biblical theology.
