The Human Condition in Hilary of Poitiers: The Will and Original Sin Between Origen and Augustine
ISBN: 9780198806646 / Angielski / Twarda / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. While he is more commonly known for his Trinitiarian works and theology, this study assesses mid-fourth-century bishop Hilary of Poitiers' view of the human condition. Isabella Image shows that the Commentary on Psalm 118 is more closely related to Origen's than previously thought. Image explains how his articulations of sin, body and soul, the Fall and the will all parallel or echo Origen's views in this work, but not necessarily in his Matthew Commentary. Hilary has a doctrine of original sin ('sins of our origin', peccata originis), which differs from the individual personal sins...

Inner Animalities: Theology and the End of the Human
ISBN: 9780823280148 / Angielski / Twarda / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Most theology proceeds under the assumption that divine grace works on human beings at the points of our (supposed) uniqueness among earth's creatures--our freedom, our self-awareness, our language, or our rationality. Inner Animalities turns this assumption on its head. Arguing that much theological anthropology contains a deeply anti-ecological impulse, this book draws creatively on historical and scriptural texts to imagine an account of human life centered in our creaturely commonality. The tendency to deny our own human animality leaves our self-understanding riven with...

ISBN: 9781433103544 / Angielski / Twarda / 279 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Nineteenth-century continental theology is usually associated with the classic liberal Protestantism of Schleiermacher and Ritschl. On the other side of the theological divide there was the Dutch Neo-Calvinist school, a sharp reaction to liberalism. Yet the theological realm of that era also included the Kohlbrugge school, which founded its theological method upon the -Older Testament- and re-read and applied the documents of the Reformation for its time. The most important representative of this school is Eduard Bohl (1836-1903), who advocated a return to Reformed doctrine and church order...

Through the examination of the concept of freedom in the writings of St Francis de Sales the author concludes that, in contradistinction to a contemporary understanding of freedom perceived as self-determination, a Salesian understanding privileges freedom s relationship to the good . This situates St Francis de Sales in the classical Thomistic tradition of freedom s necessary relationship to the good, but involves a methodological shift as he employs the Renaissance starting point of the turn to the subject . This study demonstrates how St Francis arrives inductively at what St Thomas...
