  • Release : 1996
  • ISBN : 9780520204492
  • Pages : 480 pages

Download or read book The Cynics written by Robert Bracht Branham and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays--the first of its kind in English--brings together the work of an international group of scholars examining the entire tradition associated with the ancient Cynics. The essays give a history of the movement as well as a state-of-the-art account of the literary, philosophical and cultural significance of Cynicism from antiquity to the present. Arguably the most original and influential branch of the Socratic tradition, Cynicism has become the focus of renewed scholarly interest in recent years, thanks to the work of Sloterdijk, Foucault, and Bakhtin, among others. The contributors to this volume--classicists, comparatists, and philosophers--draw on a variety of methodologies to explore the ethical, social and cultural practices inspired by the Cynics. The volume also includes an introduction, appendices, and an annotated bibliography, making it a valuable resource for a broad audience.

The work begins by firmly situating early Christianity within its Mediterranean social, political and religious contexts, before charting the history of the first Christian centuries. The creation and perpetuation of Christian communities through various means, including mission and monasticism, is explored, as is the everyday experience of early Christians, through discussion of gender and sexuality, religious practice, communication and social structures. The intellectual (particularly theological) and artistic heritage of the period is fully considered, and a vivid picture painted of the internal and external challenges faced by early Christianity. The book concludes with profiles of the most notable figures of the age. Comprehensive and accessible, Early Christian World provides up-to-date coverage of the most important topics in the study of early Christianity, together with an invaluable collection of visual material. It will be an indispensable resource for anyone studying this period

Book Historia de la filosof  a antigua

Download or read book Historia de la filosof a antigua written by Carlos García Gual and published by Editorial CSIC - CSIC Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En el principio eran los griegos. No podía plantearse una enciclopedia de filosofía sin atender a la filosofía antigua y, dentro de ella, a la griega. Fueron los jónicos, en el siglo VI a.C., los que no se contentaron, a la hora de preguntarse por las cosas de la vida, con explicaciones míticas. Querían razones. Así se produjo el paso del mito al logos. Este volumen ofrece una síntesis del momento matinal de la filosofía, que abarca ocho siglos. Comienza preguntándose por qué ahí, en Jonia, por qué nombres como Tales de Mileto, inauguran la historia del pensar filosófico. Se nos dirá que porque ahí se da una democratización del saber y de la palabra y la difusión de la escritura. Eso convierte a Grecia en un lugar privilegiado para la reflexión crítica, en el marco de una cultura ilustrada y muy atenta a los conocimientos culturales que venían de Oriente. Así aparece el 'philosophos' que desplaza al 'sophos' como maestro de la verdad. Ese especimen humano, una vez nacido, no ha dejado de desarrollarse. Pero hasta para eso tiene que visitar una y otra vez Grecia. No hay que olvidar que para reconstruir ese momento originario de la filosofía sólo nos quedan –salvo excepciones– fragmentos. Eso quiere decir que la interpretación es fundamental. Pues bien, el lector verá que, gracias a la agudeza interpretativa, hemos podido rectificar prejuicios y tomarnos en serio a los cínicos, epicureos o escépticos. El carácter sintético del libro da la mano a una voluntad innovadora. Una visión, pues, panorámica de la filosofía griega en sus tres fases clásicas: la preplatónica, la de Platón y Aristóteles y la de las escuelas posteriores del helenismo y el Imperio romano.

Book Children of God in the World

Download or read book Children of God in the World written by Paul O'Callaghan and published by CUA Press. This book was released on 2016-10-14 with total page 608 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Children of God in the World is a textbook of theological anthropology structured in four parts. The first attempts to clarify the relationship between theology, philosophy and science in their respective approaches to anthropology, and establishes the fundamental principle of the text, stated in Vatican II's Gaudium et spes, n. 22, "Christ manifests man to man." The second part provides a historical overview of the doctrine of grace: in Scripture (especially the teaching of the book of Genesis on humans 'made in the image of God', as well as Paul and John), among the Fathers (in particular the oriental doctrine of 'divinization' and Augustine), during the Middle Ages (especially Thomas Aquinas) and the Reformation period (centered particularly on Luther and the Council of Trent), right up to modern times. The third part of the text, the central one, provides a systematic understanding of Christian grace in terms of the God's life present in human believers by which they become children of God, disciples, friends and brothers of Christ, temples of the Holy Spirit. This section also provides a reflection on the theological virtues (faith, hope and charity), on the relationship between grace and human freedom, on the role of the Church and Christian apostolate in the communication of grace, and on the need humans have for divine grace. After considering the relationship between the natural and the supernatural order, the fourth and last part deals with different philosophical aspects of the human condition, in the light of Christian faith: the union between body and soul, humans as free, historical, social, sexual and working beings. The last chapter concludes with a consideration of the human person, Christianity's greatest and most enduring contribution to human thought.

Book Theology and the University in Nineteenth Century Germany

Download or read book Theology and the University in Nineteenth Century Germany written by Zachary Purvis and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017-04-13 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Theology and the University in Nineteenth-Century Germany examines the dual transformation of institutions and ideas that led to the emergence of theology as science, the paradigmatic project of modern theology associated with Friedrich Schleiermacher. Beginning with earlier educational reforms across central Europe and especially following the upheavals of the Napoleonic period, an impressive list of provocateurs, iconoclasts, and guardians of the old faith all confronted the nature of the university, the organization of knowledge, and the unity of theology's various parts, quandaries which together bore the collective name of 'theological encyclopedia'. Schleiermacher's remarkably influential programme pioneered the structure and content of the theological curriculum and laid the groundwork for theology's historicization. Zachary Purvis offers a comprehensive investigation of Schleiermacher's programme through the era's two predominant schools: speculative theology and mediating theology. Purvis highlights that the endeavour ultimately collapsed in the context of Wilhelmine Germany and the Weimar Republic, beset by the rise of religious studies, radical disciplinary specialization, a crisis of historicism, and the attacks of dialectical theology. In short, the project represented university theology par excellence. Engaging in detail with these developments, Purvis weaves the story of modern university theology into the broader tapestry of German and European intellectual culture, with periodic comparisons to other national contexts. In doing so, he Purvis presents a substantially new way to understand the relationship between theology and the university, both in nineteenth-century Germany and, indeed, beyond.
