This book was released on 1997 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'islam et le christianisme, présents en Inde depuis plus d'un millénaire, y comptent respectivement 10 et 20 millions d'adeptes (sur un total de 850 millions d'habitants). Ces deux religions du Livre se sont acclimatées aux contextes locaux, et leur adaptation, sous des formes plurielles, variables selon les époques, a suscité des débats sans fin parmi leurs fidèles. Un tel développement, s'il a parfois engendré des tensions dans les rapports inter-communautaires, ne peut se comprendre sans être replacé dans le cadre plus global des acculturations incessantes que connaît la société indienne, que ce soit celles entre mouvements religieux, ou régions, langues, castes, etc. Les auteurs des douze contributions à ce volume, qui couvrent le Nord comme le Sud de la péninsule, ont choisi d'aborder la question des musulmans et des chrétiens en Inde en mettant l'accent sur les mille et une façons dont les acteurs sociaux construisent et définissent in situ leur(s) identité(s) et leur altérité. Ils se sont intéressés aussi bien aux pratiques qu'aux controverses, en faisant appel à des disciplines variées : anthropologie, histoire, philologie, linguistique, sociologie urbaine. S'opposant aux discours que tiennent sur les chrétiens et les musulmans les militants radicaux du nationalisme hindou, cette approche souligne les spécificités des formes multiples de l'islam et du christianisme indiens, désormais confrontés aux transformations de l'hindouisme et aux interrogations profondes nées d'une « modernisation » prenant l'Occident pour modèle. Ces études invitent à la comparaison avec les autres aires culturelles où s'épanouissent également ces deux religions du Livre.

Download or read book Catholic Perspectives on Medical Morals written by Edmund D. Pellegrino and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: CATHOLIC PERSPECTIVES AND CONTEMPORARY MEDICAL MORALS A Catholic perspective on medical morals antedates the current world wide interest in medical and biomedical ethics by many centuries[5]. Discussions about the moral status of the fetus, abortion, contraception, and sterilization can be found in the writings of the Fathers and Doctors of the Church. Teachings on various aspects of medical morals were scattered throughout the penitential books of the early medieval church and later in more formal treatises when moral theology became recog nized as a distinct discipline. Still later, medical morality was incorpor ated into the many pastoral works on medicine. Finally, in the contemporary period, works that strictly focus on medical ethics are produced by Catholic moral theologians who have special interests in matters medical. Moreover, this long tradition of teaching has been put into practice in the medical moral directives governing the operation of hospitals under Catholic sponsorship. Catholic hospitals were monitored by Ethics Committees long before such committees were recommended by the New Jersey Court in the Karen Ann Quinlan case or by the President's Commission in 1983 ([8, 9]). Underlying the Catholic moral tradition was the use of the casuistic method, which since the 17th and 18th centuries was employed by Catholic moralists to study and resolve concrete clinical ethical dilem mas. The history of casuistry is of renewed interest today when the case method has become so widely used in the current revival of interest in medical ethics[ll].

Download or read book Metaphysics written by Adrian Pabst and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2012-05-04 with total page 558 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book does nothing less than to set new standards in combining philosophical with political theology. Pabst s argument about rationality has the potential to change debates in philosophy, politics, and religion." (from the foreword) This comprehensive and detailed study of individuation reveals the theological nature of metaphysics. Adrian Pabst argues that ancient and modern conceptions of "being" or individual substance fail to account for the ontological relations that bind beings to each other and to God, their source. On the basis of a genealogical account of rival theories of creation and individuation from Plato to postmodernism, Pabst proposes that the Christian Neo-Platonic fusion of biblical revelation with Greco-Roman philosophy fulfills and surpasses all other ontologies and conceptions of individuality.

Download or read book Commentaire de Thomas d Aquin written by Guy-François Delaporte and published by L'Harmattan. This book was released on 2021-06-15 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le Commentaire du Traité de l'âme d'Aristote par Thomas d'Aquin est le cinquième des commentaires fondamentaux des oeuvres d'Aristote traduits en langue française. Avec celui des Physiques, de la Métaphysique, de l'Interprétation et des Analytiques, il fonde l'édifice de la philosophie de Thomas d'Aquin et assure les contreforts de sa théologie. Ce traité se présente comme un vaste essai de définition de l'âme et principalement de l'âme humaine, avec en filigrane, une question lancinante : cette âme est-elle immortelle ? Si ce traité est l'un des plus courts d'Aristote, et selon ses propres termes, encore à l'état d'ébauche, il est construit avec une rigueur méthodologique qui en fait une sorte de modèle pour toute réflexion philosophique. Thomas propose une explication reconnue comme des plus limpides, et introduit à un livre encore loué deux millénaires plus tard par Hegel, Marx ou Darwin. Comme le reste de l'oeuvre d'Aristote, il connaît aujourd'hui un regain d'intérêt remarquable et le commentaire de Thomas offre un guide très sûr pour son intelligence.

Download or read book The Summa Halensis written by Lydia Schumacher and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2020-05-05 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For generations, early Franciscan thought has been widely regarded as unoriginal: a mere attempt to systematize the longstanding intellectual tradition of Augustine in the face of the rising popularity of Aristotle. This volume brings together leading scholars in the field to undertake a major study of the sources and context of the so-called Summa Halensis (1236-45), which was collaboratively authored by the founding members of the Franciscan school at Paris, above all, Alexander of Hales, and John of La Rochelle, in an effort to lay down the Franciscan intellectual tradition or the first time. The contributions will highlight that this tradition, far from unoriginal, laid the groundwork for later Franciscan thought, which is often regarded as formative for modern thought. Furthermore, the volume shows the role this Summa played in the development of the burgeoning field of systematic theology, which has its origins in the young university of Paris. This is a crucial and groundbreaking study for those with interests in the history of western thought and theology specifically.
