Book Synopsis Mustard Seeds in the Public Square by : Sotiris Mitralexis
Download or read book Mustard Seeds in the Public Square written by Sotiris Mitralexis and published by Vernon Press. This book was released on 2019-01-10 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume seeks to explore the intersection of theology, philosophy and the public sphere not by referring the social and political to ethics and deontology as is often the case, but rather to ontology itself, to the very nature of beings. The meaning of history and historicity is most pertinent to this enquiry and is approached here both from the perspective of social reality and from the perspective of ontology. Joining together contributions focusing on theory of the public sphere and metaphysics, chapters explore subjects as diverse as the political implications of the Incarnation, the paradox between ontology and history, politically left and right appropriations of Christianity, the fecundity of Maximus the Confessor’s insights for a contemporary political philosophy, modern Orthodox political theology focusing on Christos Yannaras and numerous thematic areas that together form the mosaic of the enquiry in question.
Book Synopsis Polis, Ontology, Ecclesial Event by : Sotiris Mitralexis
Download or read book Polis, Ontology, Ecclesial Event written by Sotiris Mitralexis and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2018-01-01 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christos Yannaras (born 1935 in Athens, Greece) has been proclaimed ‘without doubt the most important living Greek Orthodox theologian’ (Andrew Louth), ‘contemporary Greece’s greatest thinker’ (Olivier Clément), ‘one of the most significant Christian philosophers in Europe’ (Rowan Williams). However, until recently the English speaking scholar did not have first-hand access to the main bulk of his work: in spite of the relatively early English translation of his The Freedom of Morality (1984), most of his books appeared in English fairly recently – such as Person and Eros (2007), Orthodoxy and the West (2006), Relational Ontology (2011) or The Schism in Philosophy (2015). In this volume, chapters shall examine numerous aspects of Yannaras’ contributions to Orthodox theology, philosophy and political thought, based on his relational ontology of the person, later popularised in the Anglophone sphere by John Zizioulas. From political theology to Heidegger and the philosophy of language, from Yannaras’ critique of religion to the patristic grounding of the theology of the person and from Orthodoxy to the West, this volume comprises a panorama of Christos Yannaras’ transdisciplinary contributions.
Download or read book The Reign of God written by Jonathan Cole and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2022-07-28 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Reign of God constitutes the first detailed and systematic critical engagement with Oliver O'Donovan's political theology. It argues that O'Donovan's theological account of political authority is not tenable on the basis of exegetical and methodological problems. The book goes on to demonstrate a way to refine O'Donovan's theology of political authority by incorporating insights from his earlier work in moral theology. This can provide a cogent basis for thinking that the Christ-event redeems the natural political authority embedded in the created order and inaugurates its new historical bene esse in the form of Christian liberalism.
Book Synopsis T&T Clark Handbook of Political Theology by : Rubén Rosario Rodríguez
Download or read book T&T Clark Handbook of Political Theology written by Rubén Rosario Rodríguez and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-10-03 with total page 608 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The T&T Clark Handbook of Political Theology is a comprehensive reference resource informed by serious theological scholarship in the three Abrahamic traditions. The engaging and original contributions within this collection represent the epitome of contemporary scholarship in theology, religion, philosophy, history, law, and political science, from leading scholars in their area of specialization. Comprised of five sections that illuminate the rise and relevance of political theology, this handbook begins with the birth of contemporary “political theology,” and is followed by discussions of historical resources and past examples of interaction between theology and politics from all three Abrahamic traditions. The third section surveys the leading figures and movements that have had an impact on the discipline of political theology in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries; and the contributors then build on previously discussed historical resources and methods to engage with contemporary issues and challenges, emphasizing interreligious dialogue, even while addressing concerns of relevance to a particular faith tradition. The volume concludes with three essays that look at the future of political theology from the perspective of each Abrahamic religion. Complete with select bibliographies for each topic, this companion features the most current overview of political theology that will reach a broader, global audience of students and scholars
Book Synopsis Eastern Christian Approaches to Philosophy by : James Siemens
Download or read book Eastern Christian Approaches to Philosophy written by James Siemens and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-10-05 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With few exceptions, the field of Eastern Christian studies has primarily been concerned with historical-critical analysis, hermeneutics, and sociology. For the most part it has not attempted to bring Eastern Christian philosophy into serious engagement with contemporary thought. This volume seeks to redress the matter by bringing the Eastern Christian tradition into a meaningful dialogue with contemporary philosophy. It boasts a diverse group of scholars—specialists in ancient philosophy, analytic philosophy, and continental philosophy—who engage with a wide range of pressing issues. Among other things, it addresses such topics as contemporary atheism, the metaphysics of action, religious epistemology, the philosophy of language, bioethics, the philosophy of race, and human rights. In so doing, it aims to introduce contemporary readers to unique perspectives and novel arguments often overlooked by mainstream anglophone philosophy.
Book Synopsis Christos Yannaras by : Andreas Andreopoulos
Download or read book Christos Yannaras written by Andreas Andreopoulos and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-09-03 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christos Yannaras is one of the most significant Orthodox theologians of recent times. The work of Yannaras is virtually synonymous with a turn or renaissance of Orthodox philosophy and theology, initially within Greece, but as the present volume confirms, well beyond it. His work engages not only with issues of philosophy and theology, but also takes in wider questions of culture and politics. With contributions from established and new scholars, the book is divided into three sections, which correspond to the main directions that Christos Yannaras has followed – philosophy, theology, and culture – and reflects on the ways in which Yannaras has engaged and influenced thought across these fields, in addition to themes including ecclesiology, tradition, identity, and ethics. This volume facilitates the dialogue between the thought of Yannaras, which is expressed locally yet is relevant globally, and Western Christian thinkers. It will be of great interest to scholars of Orthodox and Eastern Christian theology and philosophy, as well as theology more widely.
Book Synopsis Origen’s Revenge by : Brian Patrick Mitchell
Download or read book Origen’s Revenge written by Brian Patrick Mitchell and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2021-10-11 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is the difference of male and female to be "completely shaken off" so that men and women are no longer men and women but merely human beings? The great seventh-century saint Maximus the Confessor said yes, but such thinking is difficult if not impossible to reconcile with much else in Christian tradition that obliges men and women to live as either men or women. Origen's Revenge contrasts the two main sources of early Christian thinking on male and female: the generally negative view of Greek philosophy, limiting sexual distinction to the body and holding the body in low regard, and the much more positive view of Hebrew Scripture, in which sexual distinction and reproduction are both deemed naturally good and necessary for human existence. These two views account for much of the controversy in early Christianity concerning marriage and monasticism. They also still contribute to current controversies over sex roles, gender identity, and sexual ethics. Origen's Revenge also develops the more Hebrew line of early Christian thought to propose a new understanding of male and female with a firmer grounding in scripture, tradition, theology, and philosophy and with profound implications for all human relationships, whether social, political, or spiritual.
Download or read book Mustard Seeds written by L. Brent Bozell and published by . This book was released on 2004-10 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Mustard Seeds" is the journal of a remarkable spiritual odyssey, the origin and destination points of which are edentified in the volume's subtitle: "A Conservative Becomes a Catholic." A reader not yet exposed to the intellectual clarity and rhetorical force of L. Brent Bozell's writings might be excused for responding to the subtitle with: "Huh? A conservative becomes a Catholic? Can't you just be both?" And if Bozell were alive to witness that response, he might comment: "See what I mean?" In the early '60s, L. Brent Bozell was a rising star---one of the brightest stars---in what was just then becoming known as the "conservative movement." But long before the conservative movement apogee---Ronald Reagan's election to the presidency in 1980----Bozell had moved on. "Mustard Seeds "records the milestones along Bozell's progress to the heart, in the form of articles and speeches he wrote before, during and after his founding of the seminal Catholic journal of opinion, "Triumph "magazine (published from September 1966 until July 1975)."

Book excerpt: It's finally time for Jyothky and eight other misfit adolescent dragons to go off to an unexplored, dragon-free universe and decide who will marry whom. They're astral dragons, mighty and arrogant, with devastating breath weapons and vast magical powers, and they're not even there to conquer the place. What kind of trouble could the natives possibly be — even civilized and technologically sophisticated natives? Or the mind-controlling parasite worms, or the undead god, or any of Hove's other surprises? …Maybe quite a lot of trouble, but not as much as they will bring upon themselves.

Book excerpt: Book 4 of the series is the first of 3 books which are about an attack on the city of Aletheia. The city of Truth is under threat, and, unless the plans of the Meddlers can be stopped, there will be serious consequences for everyone who lives there. All the favourite characters from the first 3 books unite to form 'The Mustardseeds' - a group of Christian kids who are determined to thwart the plans of the Meddlers. Whilst the chiefs of the city of Aletheia meet deep in the Academy of Solders-of-the-Cross and discuss the defense of Aletheia, the Mustardseeds meet in a barn on Pray-Always Farmlands and do likewise. But in order to succeed, the Mustardseeds must learn more about the power of prayer and the practical truth of Sanctification - being set apart to be used by God. What will happen to Aletheia if the Meddlers' plans succeed and the city stops praying? If there is no prayer power in Aletheia, then the city is already vulnerable to the next attack - which follows in Book 5... Through the adventure, this book explores Biblical truth. This book can be enjoyed on its own - without reading the rest of the series.

Book Synopsis Love Alone Is Credible by : Hans Urs Von Balthasar
Download or read book Love Alone Is Credible written by Hans Urs Von Balthasar and published by Ignatius Press. This book was released on 2012-09-04 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Hans Urs von Balthasar's masterwork, The Glory of the Lord, the great theologian used the term "theological aesthetic" to describe what he believed to the most accurate method of interpreting the concept of divine love, as opposed to approaches founded on historical or scientific grounds. In this newly translated book, von Balthasar delves deeper into this exploration of what love means, what makes the divine love of God, and how we must become lovers of God in the footsteps of saints like Francis de Sales, John of the Cross and Therese of Lisieux. Based in the theological aesthetic form, Love Alone is Credible brings a fresh perspective on an oft-explored subject. A deeply insightful and profound theological meditation that serves to both deepen and inform the faith of the believer.
