The Great Dissent : John Henry Newman and the Liberal Heresy
ISBN: 9780195067309 / Angielski / Twarda / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. "Alas," Newman said of liberalism, "it is an error overspreading, as a snare, the whole earth." The Great Dissent examines how from his implacable opposition to liberalism Newman developed a sweeping critique of modern values only rivaled in breadth and scorn by that of Nietzsche. The Great Dissent offers a revaluation of Newman's whole thought and establishes his place in the history of ideas as the leading English dissident from the liberalism of contemporary civilization and the foremost modern spokesman for the reality of dogmatic truth.

Cassian the Monk
ISBN: 9780195113662 / Angielski / Twarda / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This book is a study of the life, monastic writings, and spiritual theology of John Cassian (c., 360-435). His Institutes and Conferences are a remarkable synthesis of earlier monastic traditions, especially those of fourth-century Egypt, informed throughout by Cassian's awareness of the particular needs of the Latin monastic movement he was helping to shape. Sometimes portrayed as simply an advocate of the sophisticated spiritual theology of Evagrius of Ponticus (360-435), Cassian was actually a theologian of keen insight, realism, and creativity. His teaching on...

Human Freedom, Christian Righteousness : Philip Melanchthon's Exegetical Dispute with Erasmus of Rotterdam
ISBN: 9780195115291 / Angielski / Twarda / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This book argues the provocative thesis that Philip Melanchthon, so often pictured as hopelessly caught in the middle between Erasmus and Luther, and more "Erasmian" than Lutheran in his thought, was, at least in his theological methods and views, not Erasmian at all, but in fact sharply opposed to Erasmus. Author Timothy J. Wengert builds his case largely on the basis of Melanchthon's Scholia on the Epistle of Paul to the Colossians, employing the critically important but seldom used second edition of 1528, which was produced in the aftermath of Luther and Erasmus's famous debate...

Encounters with God : An Approach to the Theology of Jonathan Edwards
ISBN: 9780195118223 / Angielski / Twarda / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This book offers a broad-based study of Jonathan Edwards as a religious thinker. Much attention has been given to Edwards in relation to his Puritan and Calvinist forebears. McClymond, however, examines Edwards in relation to his eighteenth-century intellectual context. In each of six chapters, he contextualizes and interprets some text or issue in Edwards within the emergent post-Lockean, post-Newtonian culture of the English-speaking world of the 1700s. Among the topics considered are spiritual perception, metaphysics, contemplation, ethics and morality, and apologetics.

What Pure Eyes Could See : Calvin's Doctrine of Faith in its Exegetical Context
ISBN: 9780195128284 / Angielski / Twarda / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Barbara Pitkin traces the way in which Calvin's exegetical labors contributed to his understanding of faith. Through detailed analysis of Calvin's interpretation of selected biblical passages, this study shows how his views evolved. Pitkin describes the gradual development of the mature Calvin's view that faith exhibits a twofold character--saving faith and providential faith--that corresponds to the twofold aspect of its object--Christ as both the incarnate and eternal Son of God.

Reforming Mary : Changing Images of the Virgin Mary in Lutheran Sermons of the Sixteenth Century
ISBN: 9780195166545 / Angielski / Twarda / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Catholics and Protestants have, since the earliest days of the Reformation, held markedly different views about the Virgin Mary. In Reforming Mary Beth Kreitzer examines the development of Lutheran views on this subject as expressed in 16th-century Lutheran published sermons, starting with the earliest of Luther's own Reformation sermons.
She shows that from the beginning Lutherans rejected much of the theology and piety that surrounded Mary in Catholicism, especially her status as heavenly queen and intercessor with Christ. They affirmed those orthodox teachings about Mary that... Catholics and Protestants have, since the earliest days of the Reformation, held markedly different views about the Virgin Mary.

Gregory of Nyssa and the Concept of Divine Persons
ISBN: 9780195174250 / Angielski / Twarda / 186 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The concept of personhood is central to a wide range of contemporary issues, ranging from reproductive rights to the death penalty and euthanasia. We may think that the concept of person is a modern development. In fact, however, this idea does not originate with our discovery of human rights, consciousness, and individuality.
In this study Lucian Turcescu shows that the fourth-century theologian Gregory of Nyssa developed a very sophisticated concept of the person in the context of his attempts to clarify the paradox of the Trinity-a single God comprising three distinct persons. Turcescu... The concept of personhood is central to a wide range of contemporary issues, ranging from reproductive rights to the death penalty and euthanasia. We ...

John Calvin's Ideas
ISBN: 9780199255696 / Angielski / Twarda / 448 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This is a major study of the theological thought of John Calvin, which examines his central theological ideas through a philosophical lens, looking at issues in Metaphysics, Epistemology, and Ethics. The study, the first of its kind, is concerned with how Calvin actually uses philosophical ideas in his work as a theologian and biblical commentator. The book also includes a careful examination of those ideas of Calvin to which the Reformed Epistemologists appeal, to find grounds and precedent for their development of Reformed Epistemology', notably the sensus divinitatis and the internal...

The Irrational Augustine
ISBN: 9780199262083 / Angielski / Twarda / 223 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Irrational Augustine takes the notion of St Augustine as rigid and dogmatic Father of the Church and turns it on its head. Catherine Conybeare reads Augustine's earliest works to discover the anti-dogmatic Augustine, who values changeability and human interconnectedness and deplores social exclusion. The novelty of her book lies in taking seriously the nature of these early works as performances, through which multiple questions can be raised and multiple options explored, both in words and through their dramatic framework. The theological consequences are considerable. A very human...

Union and Distinction in the Thought of St Maximus the Confessor
ISBN: 9780199296118 / Angielski / Twarda / 237 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Union and Distinction in the Thought of St Maximus the Confessor presents the writings of a key figure in Byzantine theology in the light of the themes of unity and diversity. The principle of simultaneous union and distinction forms the core of Maximus' thought, pervading every area of his theology. It can be summarized as: Things united remain distinct and without confusion in an inseparable union. As Melchisedec Toronen shows, this master theme also resonates in contemporary theological and philosophical discussions.

Masters of the Sacred Page : Manuscripts of Theology in the Latin West to 1274
ISBN: 9780268042134 / Angielski / Twarda / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Starting with the premise that the history of a medieval subject cannot be properly written without recourse to the materials it produced, Lesley Smith's Masters of the Sacred Page provides an illuminating study of theology in the Middle Ages. She focuses on the dramatic transformations of the discipline in the twelfth century and uses a collection of contemporary manuscripts as a guide to its changes and developments. Smith points out that the medieval masters of theology had a much wider view of their subject than the modern academic tendency for neatness and division can easily admit, and...

The Living God : Schleiermacher's Theological Appropriation of Spinoza
ISBN: 9780271025063 / Angielski / Miękka / 260 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. German theologian F. D. E. Schleiermacher's doctrine of God-the first to be developed in the post-Kantian era-fundamentally changed the course of Christian theology. The degree to which his doctrine of God was influenced by the philosophy of Benedict de Spinoza remains in dispute, however. This study examines the ways in which Schleiermacher actively adopted elements of Spinoza's thought in the development of his own theological doctrine of God. Julia Lamm's analysis of little-known but seminal essays by Schleiermacher reveals his young creative genius in daring to go beyond the... German theologian F. D. E.

This volume concludes the series of private theological notebooks that Jonathan Edwards kept from his late teens to the end of his life.
