Book Synopsis Religious Conversion and Identity by : Massimo Leone
Download or read book Religious Conversion and Identity written by Massimo Leone and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2004-06-01 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The way in which people change and represent their spiritual evolution is often determined by recurrent language structures. Through the analysis of ancient and modern stories and their words and images, this book describes the nature of conversion through explorations of the encounter with the religious message, the discomfort of spiritual uncertainty, the loss of personal and social identity, the anxiety of destabilization, the reconstitution of the self and the discovery of a new language of the soul.
Book Synopsis Conversion in Late Antiquity: Christianity, Islam, and Beyond by : Arietta Papaconstantinou
Download or read book Conversion in Late Antiquity: Christianity, Islam, and Beyond written by Arietta Papaconstantinou and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-03 with total page 475 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The papers in this volume were presented at a Mellon-Sawyer Seminar held at the University of Oxford in 2009-2010, which sought to investigate side by side the two important movements of conversion that frame late antiquity: to Christianity at its start, and to Islam at the other end. Challenging the opposition between the two stereotypes of Islamic conversion as an intrinsically violent process, and Christian conversion as a fundamentally spiritual one, the papers seek to isolate the behaviours and circumstances that made conversion both such a common and such a contested phenomenon. The spread of Buddhism in Asia in broadly the same period serves as an external comparator that was not caught in the net of the Abrahamic religions. The volume is organised around several themes, reflecting the concerns of the initial project with the articulation between norm and practice, the role of authorities and institutions, and the social and individual fluidity on the ground. Debates, discussions, and the expression of norms and principles about conversion conversion are not rare in societies experiencing religious change, and the first section of the book examines some of the main issues brought up by surviving sources. This is followed by three sections examining different aspects of how those principles were - or were not - put into practice: how conversion was handled by the state, how it was continuously redefined by individual ambivalence and cultural fluidity, and how it was enshrined through different forms of institutionalization. Finally, a topographical coda examines the effects of religious change on the iconic holy city of Jerusalem.

Book Synopsis Au risque de la conversion by : Catherine Foisy
Download or read book Au risque de la conversion written by Catherine Foisy and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2018-02-02 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this ambitious and pioneering work, Catherine Foisy puts the experiences of Quebec missionaries into perspective, describing the ways in which they interweave with the socio-ecclesiastical transformations peculiar to Quebec and with those of Catholicism in mission countries. This tapestry, extending to the four corners of the world, gives the reader a view of missionary work as a site of intercultural encounter and conversion, as revealed through the voices of its actors. These accounts offer an opportunity to gauge the extent to which twentieth-century missionary work provided fertile ground for the emergence, deployment, and transfer of socio-ecclesiastical innovations that would prove decisive for the future of global Christianity. On the strength of its multidisciplinary approach and transnational analysis, this book documents various aspects of the Quebec missionary experience as it successively prospered, reached a zenith, and went into decline. By revisiting Lionel Groulx’s 1962 work on the Quebec missionary experience from the standpoint of those who actually took part in it, this book gives readers a new vantage on a whole area of Quebec history even as it sheds light on a rich religious heritage, both tangible and intangible. Finally, this book is an opportunity for readers to reacquaint themselves with certain characteristics of societies within larger societies that enable them to foster the emergence of intercultural encounters and dialogue in a globalized context.
Book Synopsis Conception systémique pour la conversion d'énergie électrique 2 : approche intégrée par optimisation by : ROBOAM Xavier
Download or read book Conception systémique pour la conversion d'énergie électrique 2 : approche intégrée par optimisation written by ROBOAM Xavier and published by Lavoisier. This book was released on 2012-11-06 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le contexte économique impose des systèmes toujours plus performants, minimisant coûts d’investissement et de possession. Si les méthodes d’analyse, de synthèse et de gestion présentées dans le premier volume Conception systémique pour la conversion d’énergie électrique 1 participent à l’optimisation des systèmes énergétiques, les techniques traitées dans cet ouvrage proposent d’aller encore plus loin dans la performance. La complexité de systèmes multidisciplinaires à fort degré de couplage augmentant, le processus de conception par optimisation consistant à coupler un modèle à un algorithme d’optimisation au sein d’un environnement logiciel devient dès lors indispensable. Ce volume rassemble les points-clés permettant de représenter efficacement et de façon compacte l’environnement système et les profils de mission, mais également les méthodes, modèles et outils dédiés à l’optimisation. Les approches multiniveaux de conception et l’optimisation technico-économique des réseaux électriques sont particulièrement détaillées.

Download or read book Conception systémique pour la conversion d’énergie électrique 1 : gestion, analyse et synthèse written by ROBOAM Xavier and published by Lavoisier. This book was released on 2012-11-06 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le contexte actuel mène les concepteurs vers des systèmes toujours plus complexes et performants, intégrant un grand nombre d’éléments souvent fortement couplés et appartenant à divers champs de la physique énergétique. Après une présentation de l’approche systémique de conception, ce premier volume rassemble les points-clés permettant de modéliser et de caractériser efficacement des systèmes multiphysiques (formalismes graphiques, Bond Graphs, GIC/REM), d’analyser la qualité et la stabilité des réseaux et de contribuer à la robustesse en conception intégrée. La gestion de l’énergie des systèmes énergétiques hybrides incluant du stockage est également largement détaillée et différentes méthodes statistiques permettant de dimensionner les réseaux ou de caractériser leur sûreté de fonctionnement sont proposées (par exemple, la méthode de Monte-Carlo). Les techniques d’analyse, de synthèse et de gestion présentées dans cet ouvrage participent à l’optimisation des systèmes énergétiques. Elles sont complétées par des approches spécifiquement orientées vers la conception par optimisation, objets du second volume.

Book Synopsis Beyond Secular Faith by : Matyas Szalay
Download or read book Beyond Secular Faith written by Matyas Szalay and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2023-01-19 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Attempts to reach an understanding of how to live a Christian life in the contemporary context have never been more necessary. This is the aim of the International Symposium: Beyond Secular Faith, an annual conference held in Granada, Spain. This volume represents the fruits of over seven years of scholarship. The title Beyond Secular Faith suggests we are interested in (re)discovering and reflectively elaborating ways to overcome the limits imposed by the dominant contemporary culture. We are convinced that only a faith liberated from the conceptual restrictions and reductions (put forward by secular philosophy and theology) and centered radically on Christ can flourish in the dimension that is proper to faith; that is, in all spheres of human life. Featuring contributions from internationally recognized philosophers and theologians such as Tracey Rowland, Jarosław Jagiello, Rocco Buttiglione, Alison Milbank, Massimo Borghesi, John Milbank, and others, we will explore a diversity of questions from this common perspective: the light of revelation illuminates how Christians should live in the modern world, leading to a new beginning.
