Book Synopsis Religiosität im späten Mittelalter by : Berndt Hamm
Download or read book Religiosität im späten Mittelalter written by Berndt Hamm and published by Mohr Siebeck. This book was released on 2011 with total page 640 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Das Buch beschäftigt sich mit den erstaunlich vielfältigen Wechselbeziehungen zwischen frömmigkeitsbezogener Theologie, kirchlicher Seelsorge, Frömmigkeitspraxis, Laienreligiosität, Klosterreform, urbaner Kirchlichkeit und religiösen Bildwerken vom 14. bis frühen 16. Jahrhundert. Die spätmittelalterliche Religiosität wird als Kraftfeld gegenläufiger Tendenzen verstanden, z. B. zwischen stark äußerlich-rituellen und stark verinnerlichenden Frömmigkeitshaltungen. Dabei wird deutlich, dass bei jeder religiösen Problemstellung ein ganzes Spektrum theoretischer Lösungsansätze und praktischer Verhaltensweisen hervortritt. Das Spätmittelalter wird so als Ära einer forcierten religiösen Erregung, Kreativität und Mobilität präsentiert
Book Synopsis Christenheit und Christentum im Mittelalter by : Adriaan Hendrik Bredero
Download or read book Christenheit und Christentum im Mittelalter written by Adriaan Hendrik Bredero and published by Franz Steiner Verlag. This book was released on 1998 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aus dem Niederl�ndischen von Ad Pistorius. Pressestimme zur englischen Ausgabe: "� deals with medieval Christianity in its relation to Church and society. The broad scope of this work makes it extremely useful in getting a grasp on medieval Christianity which is an era of history so often ignored. Not a few theological schools may study the Early Church and then jump straight into the Reformation period. This may be due to the myth that the Middle Ages were a period of unrelieved spiritual darkness. Such a characterisation is simplistic and not true to fact. As we read this work we see that there were also points of light that emerge, testifying to the vitality of the Gospel. More importantly, it is impossible to truly understand the Reformation without an understanding of church and society in the Middle Ages. Other aspects that are dealt with include the rise of new monastic movements, the role of Jerusalem in Christian thought, veneration of saints, anti-Semitism in medieval society, heresy and church reform. This is an important and very readable book, a must for the student of church history." Vox Reformata .
Book Synopsis Sound and Communication by : Annette Wilke
Download or read book Sound and Communication written by Annette Wilke and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2011-01-28 with total page 1137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Hindu India both orality and sonality have enjoyed great cultural significance since earliest times. They have a distinct influence on how people approach texts. The importance of sound and its perception has led to rites, models of cosmic order, and abstract formulas. Sound serves both to stimulate religious feelings and to give them a sensory form. Starting from the perception and interpretation of sound, the authors chart an unorthodox cultural history of India, turning their attention to an important, but often neglected aspect of daily religious life. They provide a stimulating contribution to the study of cultural systems of perception that also adds new aspects to the debate on orality and literality.

Book Synopsis History and Religion by : Bernd-Christian Otto
Download or read book History and Religion written by Bernd-Christian Otto and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2015-08-31 with total page 471 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: History is one of the most important cultural tools to make sense of one’s situation, to establish identity, define otherness, and explain change. This is the first systematic scholarly study that analyses the complex relationship between history and religion, taking into account religious groups both as producers of historical narratives as well as distinct topics of historiography. Coming from different disciplines, the authors of this volume ask under which conditions and with what consequences religions are historicised. How do religious groups employ historical narratives in the construction of their identities? What are the biases and elisions of current analytical and descriptive frames in the History of Religion? The volume aims at initiating a comparative historiography of religion and combines disciplinary competences of Religious Studies and the History of Religion, Confessional Theologies, History, History of Science, and Literary Studies. By applying literary comparison and historical contextualization to those texts that have been used as central documents for histories of individual religions, their historiographic themes, tools and strategies are analysed. The comparative approach addresses circum-Mediterranean and European as well as Asian religious traditions from the first millennium BCE to the present and deals with topics such as the origins of religious historiography, the practices of writing and the transformation of narratives.

Book Synopsis The Emperor's Old Clothes by : Barbara Stollberg-Rilinger
Download or read book The Emperor's Old Clothes written by Barbara Stollberg-Rilinger and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2015-08-01 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many years, scholars struggled to write the history of the constitution and political structure of the Holy Roman Empire. This book argues that this was because the political and social order could not be understood without considering the rituals and symbols that held the Empire together. What determined the rules (and whether they were followed) depended on complex symbolic-ritual actions. By examining key moments in the political history of the Empire, the author shows that it was a vocabulary of symbols, not the actual written laws, that formed a political language indispensable in maintaining the common order.

Book Synopsis The Spirituality of the Heidelberg Catechism by : Arnold Huijgen
Download or read book The Spirituality of the Heidelberg Catechism written by Arnold Huijgen and published by Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht. This book was released on 2015-03-11 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the occasion of the 450th anniversary of the Heidelberg Catechism, an international conference on the spirituality of the Heidelberg Catechism was held at the Theological University Apeldoorn, 21-22 June 2013. This publication offers the plenary papers presented, and a selection of the short papers. While the papers center on the Catechism's spirituality, a wide range of topics is covered, from both historical and theological perspectives. These topics include: the roles of Ursinus and Olevianus, controverse theologians, anabaptist spirituality, comparisons with Calvin's Genevan Catechism and the later Synopsis of Purer Theology. Also, the distinct spirituality of faith, regeneration, the trinity, the law and prayer in the Heidelberg Catechism are scrutinized, besides the idea of mystical union and the art of dying and living. Three contributions reflect on the controversy on the Eucharist which has stamped the Heidelberg Catechism. From a practical-theological perspective, the preaching and teaching of the Catechism are discussed, as well as the mode of gospel presentation and the permanent character of catechetical instruction. So, this volume offers a broad range of scholarly perspectives on the Catechism. Its spirituality is famous for the first question and answer, on the only comfort in life and death: That I am not my own, but belong – body and soul, in life and in death – to my faithful Savior, Jesus Christ.""
