Download or read book Emotional Life written by Daniele Bruzzone and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2024-01-10 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The human heart is, in many ways, an indecipherable enigma. The opposition of reason and passion has long prevented us from recognizing emotions and feelings as legitimate sources of knowledge. This book takes a deep dive into the rich phenomenology of affect, with a view to uncovering its essence and variety of forms: the experience of being “invaded” by an emotion is different to that of being “immersed” in a mood, just as being “guided” by a feeling does not mean being “swept away” by a passionate impulse. Hence the need for a systematic phenomenology of emotionality that can help us to appreciate such distinctions. The philosophical and pedagogical trajectory outlined in these pages provides education and healthcare practitioners – and indeed all those willing to improve their self-knowledge – with the key to a deeper understanding of the emotional life and its meaning for our existence.

Book Cybertheology

  • Author : Antonio Spadaro
  • Publisher : Fordham Univ Press
  • Release : 2014-09-19
  • ISBN : 0823257029
  • Pages : 126 pages

Download or read book Cybertheology written by Antonio Spadaro and published by Fordham Univ Press. This book was released on 2014-09-19 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because the Internet has changed and is changing the ways in which we think and act, it must also be changing the ways in which we think Christianity and its theology. Cybertheology is the first book to explore this process from a Catholic point of view. Drawing on the theoretical work of authors such as Marshall McLuhan, Peter Levy, and Teilhard de Chardin, it questions how technologies redefine not only the ways in which we do things but also our being and therefore the way we perceive reality, the world, others, and God. “Does the digital revolution affect faith in any sense?” Spadaro asks. His answer is an emphatic Yes. But how, then, are we to live well in the age of the Internet? Spadaro delves deeply into various dimensions of the impact of the Net on the Church and its organization, on our understanding of revelation, grace, liturgy, the sacraments, and other classical theological themes. He rightly points out that the digital environment is not merely an external instrument that facilitates human communication or a purely virtual world, but part of the daily experience of many people, a new “anthropological space” that is reshaping the way we think, know, and express ourselves. Naturally, this calls for a new understanding of faith so that it makes sense to people who live and work in the digital media environment. In developing the notion of cybertheology, Spadaro seeks to propose an intelligence of faith (intellectus fidei) in the era of the Internet. The book’s chapters include reflections on man the decoder and the search engines of God, networked existence and the mystical body, hacker ethics and Christian vision, sacraments and “virtual presence,” and the theological challenges of collective intelligence.

Book Parenting

  • Author : Anna Marina Mariani
  • Publisher : Ipoc Press
  • Release : 2008
  • ISBN : 8895145305
  • Pages : 191 pages

Download or read book Parenting written by Anna Marina Mariani and published by Ipoc Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book provides a necessary commitment for a stronger preventive attitude to parenting: in other words, parents could and should educate themselves for parenthood in order to be able to provide their children those guiding maps for personal growth. Attributing so much importance to a self formation in motherhood and fatherhood, does not reduce the family to a secondary social role in order to avoid pathological issues and intergenerational clashes, rather it wants to urge in committing for their children's growth-formation without any neurotic search for perfection and educational abstentions. Will we be able to support those adults willing to be good parents but not parents acting well? The book tries to offer theoretical views choosing to privilege the informality that the family code requires in order that those parents in "normal" situations, and not only those who have problems or difficulties, would find guiding lines to appropriately face common and general issues; this not according to the strict canons of formal education, but to an education among adults that does not enclose the family in material, and always private and individual experiences, to the detriment of spiritual and more general dimensions.

Book Pursuing Truth

    Book Details:
  • Author : Mary J. Oates
  • Publisher : Cornell University Press
  • Release : 2021-03-15
  • ISBN : 1501753819
  • Pages : 378 pages

Download or read book Pursuing Truth written by Mary J. Oates and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2021-03-15 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Pursuing Truth, Mary J. Oates explores the roles that religious women played in teaching generations of college and university students amid slow societal change that brought the grudging acceptance of Catholics in public life. Across the twentieth century, Catholic women's colleges modeled themselves on, and sometimes positioned themselves against, elite secular colleges. Oates describes these critical pedagogical practices by focusing on Notre Dame of Maryland University, formerly known as the College of Notre Dame of Maryland, the first Catholic college in the United States to award female students four-year degrees. The sisters and laywomen on the faculty and in the administration at Notre Dame of Maryland persevered in their work while facing challenges from the establishment of the Catholic Church, mainline Protestant churches, and secular institutions. Pursuing Truth presents the stories of the institution's female founders, administrators, and professors whose labors led it through phases of diversification. The pattern of institutional development regarding the place of religious identity, gender and sexuality, and race that Oates finds at Notre Dame of Maryland is a paradigmatic story of change in US higher education. Similarly representative is her account of the school's effort, from the late 1960s to the present, to maintain its identity as a women's liberal arts college. Thanks to generous funding from the Cushwa Center at the University of Notre Dame, the ebook editions of this book are available as Open Access (OA) volumes from Cornell Open (cornellpress.cornell.edu/cornell-open) and other Open Access repositories.

Book Cirpit Review Monographs n 2   2015

Download or read book Cirpit Review Monographs n 2 2015 written by Gabriele Goria and published by Mimesis. This book was released on 2015-05-19T00:00:00+02:00 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You are holding a unique and special book in your hand. It is unique in many aspects. In western contemporary art the spiritual and religious elements exist primarily as cultural historical references, personal faith and religion being understood as the most private and intimate issues. It is indeed a brave and rare statement for an artist to confess that a spiritual quest is the foundation and basic element of his work.Born in a multi-religious family, Gabriele Goria started his own spiritual odyssey at a remarkably early age. He devoted his life to the practice of meditation and training in martial arts. Not a very common combination of activities for a young person.Drawing on his lifelong training in T’ai Chi Ch’üan and Ch’i Kung together with working on meditation techniques and philosophical and spiritual enquiry, Gabriele has developed his own approach to making and teaching theatre. In this book the writer describes vividly his long and multi-dimensional way from the crucifix of the Roman Catholic Church to Paramahansa Yogananda to arrive at a synthesis which he has named Experiential Pluralism. Gabriele Goria also tells us how naturally his multi-religious background and all his other interests form the basis for his creative work. In his two long-term projects Moving the Silence and Hermits in Progress, Gabriele Goria walks the talk: he is fearlessly testing his way of thinking in practice in very demanding surroundings. During these processes the complexity of different philosophical theories is embodied in movement and silence.It is interesting to follow a narrative, in which all words become useless, and making and teaching art and a personal spiritual search flow into a single process.Gabriele Goria writes about his own process in very honest and sincere words. The reader becomes convinced that Goria has a lifelong mission, which is anything but dogmatic and restrictive. His concept of Experiential Pluralism is a true and living ecumenism. What could our times need more!Gabriele may not like to be called exceptional or unique, but all I can say is that I’ve never met anyone like him.Kaija KangasActress – Lecturer in Theatre Pedagogy - Theatre Academy / University of the Arts of Helsinki

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A collection of 10 articles from the November 2020 edition of La Civiltà Cattolica, the highly respected and oldest Catholic journal published from Rome. Dominik Markl a professor at the Pontifical Bible Institute discusses the keys to Saint Jerome’s success such as his geographical and linguistic approach to the Bible: he studied Latin in Rome, Greek in Constantinople and Antioch, and Hebrew in Syria and Palestine. Many argue rejection of the world and the condemnation of earthly life are essential elements of Medieval asceticism, in the latest issue Fr Giancarlo Pani considers another option found in a letter from St Francis of Assisi to one of his brethren in “All is Grace” : Saint Francis and the Weight of the World. We have two free articles, both profiles. First Fr Nicolas Kluiters a Duch missionary in Lebanon, who was killed mysteriously in 1985 during the civil war, and a testimonial of Fr Bartolomeo Sorge director of La Civiltà Cattolica from 1973 – 1985. Jean-Pierre Sonnet’s article considers COVID-19 in the context of the Book of Genesis, the story of creation and our relationship with other living beings. Giovanni Cucci looks at Pope Francis’ recently launched strategy for a Global Education Pact.

Book Truth Is a Synthesis  Catholic Dogmatic Theology

Download or read book Truth Is a Synthesis Catholic Dogmatic Theology written by Mauro Gagliardi and published by Emmaus Academic. This book was released on 2020-08-06 with total page 844 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In everyday parlance, synthesis is synonymous with short. Here, Mauro Gagliardi uses synthesis as it has been applied to the Hypostatic Union in Christ: the “Synthetic Union” of the two natures in one Person. All of dogmatic theology is presented from this et-et (both-and), Christocentric approach in Truth is a Synthesis: Catholic Dogmatic Theology. The volume presents for beginners a comprehensive, organic view of the Catholic faith. Truth is a Synthesis spotlights, in a respectful yet clear way, the different views about Christian Dogmatics held by our separated brethren, both Protestant and Orthodox. As he explores the implications of the et-et nature of theology, Gagliardi reveals the underlying unity of both Fundamental and Dogmatic theology “Professor Gagliardi’s book is in every way a magnum opus, both from the qualitative and the quantitative standpoint.”—Cardinal Gerhard L. Müller

Book Poetry and Courtliness in Renaissance England

Download or read book Poetry and Courtliness in Renaissance England written by Daniel Javitch and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2015-03-08 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Model court conduct in the Renaissance shared many rhetorical features with poetry. Analyzing these stylistic affinities, Professor Javitch shows that the rise of the courtly ideal enhanced the status of poetic art. He suggests a new explanation for the fostering of poetic talents by courtly establishments and proposes that the court stimulated these talents more decisively than the Renaissance school. The author focuses on late Tudor England and considers how Queen Elizabeth's court helped poetry gain strength by subscribing to a code of behavior as artificial as that prescribed by Castiglione. Elizabethan writers, however, could benefit from the court's example only so long as their contemporaries continued to respect its social and moral authority. The author shows how the weakening of the courtly ideal led eventually to the poet's emergence as the maker of manners, a role first subtly indicated by Spenser in the Sixth Book of The Faerie Queene. Originally published in 1978. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions.

Book Researching Sex and Sexualities

Download or read book Researching Sex and Sexualities written by Charlotte Morris and published by Zed Books Ltd.. This book was released on 2018-02-15 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sexuality is a complex and multifaceted domain – encompassing bodily, contextual and subjective experiences that resist ready categorisation. To claim the sexual as a viable research object therefore raises a number of important methodological questions: what is it possible to know about experiences, practices and perceptions of sex and sexualities? What approaches might help or hinder our efforts to probe such experiences? This collection explores the creative, personal and contextual parameters involved in researching sexuality, cutting across disciplinary boundaries and drawing on case studies from a variety of countries and contexts. Combining a wide range of expertise, its contributors address such key areas as pornography, sex work, intersectionality and LGBT perspectives. The contributors also share their own experiences of researching sexuality within contrasting disciplines, as well as interrogating how the sexual identities of researchers themselves can relate to, and inform, their work. The result is a unique and diverse collection that combines practical insights on field work with novel theoretical reflections.
