Evolution der Ethik

There are conflicts in moral judgment between philosophies, between cultures, and even inside an individual conscience.

ISBN: 9783034302944 / Angielski / Miękka / 349 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book investigates Mark s Gospel as an example of a transformative discourse that uses many interwoven rhetorical elements to move its audience toward change. A detailed exegesis of the Gerasene demoniac story (Mark 5:1-20) in its literary setting highlights its significant contribution to this transformative discourse. What happens to the demoniac release from bondage to evil, and entrance into a new perceptual world typifies the dynamics of the Gospel s theological anthropology and can be regarded as somewhat paradigmatic of human transformation in the context of Christian...

Glancy uses this fundamental question to illuminate the cultural history of early Christianity.

ISBN: 9783631598580 / Niemiecki / Twarda / 218 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Das Sundenverstandnis der christlichen Tradition will sich offenbar nur schwer in die gegenwartigen Weisen der Welt- und Selbstdeutung einbringen lassen. Zwar wurden in den letzten Jahrzehnten zahlreiche Versuche unternommen, Reformulierungen fur das tradierte Verstandnis von Sunde zu finden. Und doch bleiben zunachst viele Fragen: Was meint die Heilige Schrift, wenn sie von Sunde spricht? Wie kann individuelles Sundigsein gedacht und erkannt werden? Was ist der Gehalt des -Erbsundentheorems-, was bedeutet Rechtfertigung? Wie ist von Verantwortlichkeit und wie von Schuld zu reden? Diese...

Musing with Confucius and Paul
ISBN: 9781498210812 / Angielski / Twarda / 508 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The book is a manifesto or apologia for Chinese Christians. It seeks to articulate how it is possible to maintain a Chinese identity and a Christian identity at the same time without capitulating to some western or other cultural model of Christian identity. To be a Chinese Christian is to adopt a distinctive, unique identity that owes much to both traditions but is sui generis. Providing great resources for the construction of a Chinese Christian theology, Confucius and Paul converge across a surprisingly broad front. Yet, the Christ of the Cross completes or extends what is merely implicit...

Tales of Posthumanity: The Bible and Contemporary Popular Culture
ISBN: 9781909697591 / Angielski / Twarda / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Images and concepts of the 'posthuman' go back at least as far as the famous 'madman parable' in F. Nietzsche's The Gay Science, and their 'roots' go back much further still. In turn, the image or theme of the posthuman has played an increasingly important role in recent literature, film, and television, where the notion of humanity as a 'larval being' (G. Deleuze) that transforms itself or is being transformed into something else, for better or worse, has become increasingly common. This book explores these concepts in relation to biblical texts, particularly texts from the gospel of Mark...

Natura Pura: On the Recovery of Nature in the Doctrine of Grace
ISBN: 9780823231058 / Angielski / Twarda / 294 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. From speculative theology to the exegesis of Aquinas, to contemporary North American philosophy and Catholic social and ethical thought, to the thought of Benedict XVI, this work argues the crucial importance of the proportionate natural end within the context of grace and supernatural beatitude. Long argues that, in the effort to avoid naturalism, Henri de Lubac unwittingly consummated the loss of nature as a normative principle within theology, both doctrinally and exegetically with respect to the teaching of Aquinas. The author argues that this constitutes an understandable but grave...

A Constructive Theology of Intellectual Disability: Human Being as Mutuality and Response
ISBN: 9780823239405 / Angielski / Twarda / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Responding to how little theological research has been done on intellectual (as opposed to physical) disability, this book asks, on behalf of individuals with profound intellectual disabilities, what it means to be human. That question has traditionally been answered with an emphasis on an intellectual capacity--the ability to employ concepts or to make moral choices--and has ignored the value of individuals who lack such intellectual capacities. The author suggests, rather, that human being be understood in terms of participation in relationships of mutual responsiveness, which includes but...
