Book Synopsis A Theology for the Bildungsbürgertum by : Leif Svensson
Download or read book A Theology for the Bildungsbürgertum written by Leif Svensson and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2020-04-06 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a new approach to Albrecht Ritschl’s theology. Leif Svensson argues that Ritschl’s theological project must be related to three cultural developments – historical criticism, materialism, and anti-Lutheran polemics – and understood in the context of the de-Christianization of the Bildungsbürgertum in nineteenth-century Germany. “Albrecht Ritschl remains the great unknown of nineteenth-century theology. In this important study, Leif Svensson sheds new light on Ritschl’s thought by relating it to contemporaneous social and cultural developments. Rooted in deep familiarity with German intellectual life of the time, the book convincingly illustrates the value of a history of theology that is mindful of its various contexts.” – Johannes Zachhuber University of Oxford “I confess I was hesitant to blurb a book on Ritschl, but then I read it. Svensson’s well researched presentation of Ritschl’s thought is compelling and forceful. I highly recommend this book.” – Stanley Hauerwas Duke Divinity School “Svensson’s work ably places Ritschl’s contribution to theology in the broader context of the intellectual and cultural history of the nineteenth century. Students of Protestant theology and thought and all interested in the complex relationship between Christian theology and modernity will learn something of value from this important study.” – Thomas Albert Howard Valparaiso University

Book Synopsis The Good Book of Human Nature by : Carel van Schaik
Download or read book The Good Book of Human Nature written by Carel van Schaik and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2016-05-24 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How reading the Bible as a work of cultural and scientific evolution can reveal new truths about how our species conquered the Earth The Bible is the bestselling book of all time. It has been venerated -- or excoriated -- as God's word, but so far no one has read the Bible for what it is: humanity's diary, chronicling our ancestors' valiant attempts to cope with the trials and tribulations of life on Earth. In The Good Book of Human Nature, evolutionary anthropologist Carel van Schaik and historian Kai Michel advance a new view of Homo sapiens' cultural evolution. The Bible, they argue, was written to make sense of the single greatest change in history: the transition from egalitarian hunter-gatherer to agricultural societies. Religion arose as a strategy to cope with the unprecedented levels of epidemic disease, violence, inequality, and injustice that confronted us when we abandoned the bush -- and which still confront us today. Armed with the latest findings from cognitive science, evolutionary biology, archeology, and religious history, van Schaik and Michel take us on a journey through the Book of Books, from the Garden of Eden all the way to Golgotha. The Book of Genesis, they reveal, marked the emergence of private property-one can no longer take the fruit off any tree, as one could before agriculture. The Torah as a whole is the product of a surprisingly logical, even scientific, approach to society's problems. This groundbreaking perspective allows van Schaik and Michel to coax unexpected secrets from the familiar stories of Adam and Eve, Cain and Able, Abraham and Moses, Jesus of Nazareth and Mary. The Bible may have a dark side, but in van Schaik and Michel's hands, it proves to be a hallmark of human indefatigability. Provocative and deeply original, The Good Book of Human Nature offers a radically new understanding of the Bible. It shows that the Bible is more than just a pillar for religious belief: it is a pioneering attempt at scientific inquiry.
Book Synopsis Geschichte des globalen Christentums by : Jens Holger Schjørring
Download or read book Geschichte des globalen Christentums written by Jens Holger Schjørring and published by Kohlhammer Verlag. This book was released on 2017-06-21 with total page 710 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The way in which the world's religions are intertwined in the dynamics of global development has become obvious in the twenty-first century. This also applies to Christianity. In view of the fact that its historiography is still predominantly regional or national, however, little is known about Christianity's historical process of development to become a religion that is globally active and plurally differentiated. The first volume takes up this challenge by presenting a comprehensive, interdenominational and interdisciplinary history of global Christianity from the fifteenth to the eighteenth century, for the first time in German-speaking countries. Renowned theologians and (church) historians clarify the turning-points in the Early Modern period that set the course for the global spread and fascinating plurality of modern Christianity.
Book Synopsis Social Justice and Political Change by : David Mason
Download or read book Social Justice and Political Change written by David Mason and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-04-17 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Analysis and debate about economic and political justice rarely involves research on the views of the common person. Scholars often make assumptions about what common people think is fair, but for the most part they confine their thinking to a single country and argue on rational or moral grounds, with little supporting empirical data. Social Justice and Political Change, involves the collaboration of thirty social scientists in twelve countries, and represents broad-ranging comparative research. The book grows out of a collaborative study of public opinion about social justice. Though conceived prior to the revolutions that swept Central and Eastern Europe in 1989, the ISJP did not put its survey into the field until the summer of 1991, in a new climate of open international exchange in social research. Employing common methods of data collection and, within the limits of translation, identical survey instruments, the ISJP investigated public opinion in seven newly emerging post-Communist countries and five of the worldi?1/2s most influential capitalist democracies, with special sensitivity to divergencies in the newly united Germany. Among the themes addressed by the volumei?1/2s distinguished contributors are the views and beliefs of citizens in the post-Communist states on the transition to market economies and parliamentary democracy; the role of ideology in legitimating inequality; the structural determination of beliefs about justice; the processes that shape individual level evaluations; and the major implications of public opinion and mass participation in the democratic process.
Book Synopsis Geschichte des Christentums by : Carl Andresen
Download or read book Geschichte des Christentums written by Carl Andresen and published by W. Kohlhammer Verlag. This book was released on 2006 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die Entstehung der neuzeitlichen europaischen Staaten und ihres Systems zwischen 1300 und 1600 ist aufs engste verbunden mit der Christentumsgeschichte. Nachdem die uberdehnten Anspruche von Papst- und Kaisertum gescheitert waren, ergab sich eine Nationalisierung, Territorialisierung und Kommunalisierung der abendlandischen Kirche, mit der das Verlangen nach Reformen und deren teilweise Verwirklichung verbunden waren. In diese Vorgange vielfaltig ruckgebunden fuhrte die Reformation ausgehend von den drei Zentren Wittenberg, Zurich und Genf zur Ausbildung von Konfessionen und einer die Gesamtgesellschaft umgreifenden modernisierenden Konfessionalisierung, die freilich gleichzeitig auch erste Sakularisierungstendenzen hervortrieb. In funf grossen Abschnitten (Das Christentum im Spatmittelalter, die Reformation, Konfessionsbildung und Konfessionalisierung, das ostliche Christentum, das Christentum in Ubersee) geht der Autor den geschilderten Vorgangen umfassend, aber konzentriert auf das Wesentlich-Weiterwirkende nach.

Download or read book Space to Act written by Alan C. Leidner and published by Boydell & Brewer. This book was released on 1993 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essays on 18th-century Sturm und Drang playwright J.M.R. Lenz, whose work shows many parallels with 20th-century theater. The essays collected in this volume constitute the first collection in English on the German writer Lenz (1751-1792). They grew out of the International J.M.R. Lenz Symposium organized by Professor Madland and held in October 1991at the University of Oklahoma. Jakob Michael Reinhold Lenz, a writer whose work has received increasing attention lately for its prefiguration of the theater of our own century, emerges in these articles written by prominent Germanists and literary critics as a man ahead of his times, bedeviled by the neuroses of modernity. At the beginning of his career in the early 1770s, Lenz was so highly regarded that he was compared to Goethe. But Lenz had trouble establishing himself both socially and as a writer, and only Der Hofmeister was staged during his lifetime. By the time of his death at the age of 42, he had been almost forgotten by his contemporaries. General essays focus on Lenz's interest in linguistic matters, showing that he saw the unlocking of the potential of language as an act of liberation; on literary genre and sexual gender in Lenz's work; and, linking Lenz's characters to those of the twentieth century, on the rise of the lowly hero from Lenz to Georg Büchner to Bertolt Brecht.
Book Synopsis Rabbi - Pastor - Priest by : Walter Homolka
Download or read book Rabbi - Pastor - Priest written by Walter Homolka and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2013-03-22 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Both Judaism and Christianity have authorized clergy, charged with fulfilling a multitude of tasks in their respective communities. They teach, provide pastoral care, and preach. They lead worship, hold services and offer counseling regarding all aspects of life. They perform religious rites at the beginning and end of life as well as in-between. They make decisions regarding religious questions, serve as administrators, and possibly even mediate ‛between heaven and earth’. The concrete forms of realization and the functions of the office are not only defined through theological specification but are also subject to trends and influences. This in turn leads to constant change and adaptation.
Book Synopsis The Old English Translation of Bede's Historia Ecclesiastica Gentis Anglorum in its Historical and Cultural Context by : Andreas Lemke
Download or read book The Old English Translation of Bede's Historia Ecclesiastica Gentis Anglorum in its Historical and Cultural Context written by Andreas Lemke and published by Göttingen University Press. This book was released on 2015 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Did King Alfred the Great commission the Old English translation of Bede’s Historia Ecclesiastica Gentis Anglorum, probably the masterpiece of medieval Anglo-Latin Literature, as part of his famous program of translation to educate the Anglo-Saxons? Was the Old English Historia, by any chance, a political and religious manifesto for the emerging ‘Kingdom of the Anglo-Saxons’? Do we deal with the literary cornerstone of a nascent English identity at a time when the Anglo-Saxon kingdoms were threatened by a common enemy: the Vikings? Andreas Lemke seeks to answer these questions – among others – in his recent publication. He presents us with a unique compendium of interdisciplinary approaches to the subject and sheds new light on the Old English translation of the Historia in a way that will fascinate scholars of Literature, Language, Philology and History.
