Book Synopsis Meaning and Embodiment by : Nicholas Mowad
Download or read book Meaning and Embodiment written by Nicholas Mowad and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2019-07-01 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Meaning and Embodiment provides a detailed study of Hegel's anthropology to examine the place of corporeity or embodiment in human life, identity, and experience. In Hegel's view, to be human means in part to produce one's own spiritual embodiment in culture and habits. Whereas for animals nature only has meaning relative to biological drives, humans experience meaning in a way that transcends these limits, and which allows for aesthetic appreciation of beauty and sublimity, nihilistic feelings of meaninglessness, and the complex and different systems of symbolic speech and action characterizing language and culture. By elucidating the different forms of embodiment, Nicholas Mowad shows how for Hegel we are embodied in several different ways at once: as extended, subject to physical-chemical forces, living, and human. Many difficult problems in philosophy and everyday experience come down to using the right concept of embodiment. Mowad traces Hegel's account through the growth and development of the body, gender and racial difference, cycles of sleep and waking, and sensibility and mental illness.
Book Synopsis What God Has to Say about Our Bodies by : Sam Allberry
Download or read book What God Has to Say about Our Bodies written by Sam Allberry and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2021-07-08 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "God's eternal plan for us involves our body. We can't write off our physical life as spiritually irrelevant." — Sam Allberry There's a danger in focusing too much on the body. There's also a danger in not valuing it enough. In fact, the Bible has lots to say about the body. With the coming of Jesus, "The Word became flesh and dwelt among us"—flesh that was pierced and crushed for the sins of the world. In What God Has to Say about Our Bodies, Sam Allberry explains that all of us are fearfully and wonderfully made, and should regard our physicality as a gift. He offers biblical guidance for living, including understanding gender, sexuality, and identity; dealing with aging, illness, and death; and considering the physical future hope that we have in Christ. In this powerfully written book, you'll gain a new understanding for the immeasurable value of our bodies and God's ultimate plan to redeem them.
Download or read book Soul Empowerment written by Instafo and published by Instafo. This book was released on 2016-08-19 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Enrichment of Soul for Greater Awareness Take a dive deep into the depth of your very own soul. What do you see? Who are you? What makes you the person that you are today? These are questions you should know about yourself. If you don't know, then you don't know the very fabric of your own soul. The soul has many spiritual connotations and nevertheless, they are all not wrong - from the eyes being the windows of the soul to the soul being a transcendence of self-awareness that breathes higher consciousness. Yet, modern culture goes against the human spirit, attempting you to look outward for the next thing rather than inward for what you already have. Would you like to go on a spiritual quest by visiting the foundation of your being to discover your bigger purpose? Would you like to better deal with the inevitable challenges you face every day, responding in a way that moves your life forward? "Soul Empowerment" will allow you to enjoy life more by learning to take care of your soul just as you care for your body. Through it all, you will experience more joy and peace each day. * Achieve higher power to respond effectively to the world around you. * Gain wisdom and self-awareness to make better decisions with clarity. * Accomplish seemingly impossible goals using the 3-Step LAMS Method. * Purify a burdened soul with this practice that is not for the faint of heart. * Rediscover the depth of soul with your very own self-assessments. * And much more! Achieving more positivity, and enriching your soul, does not need to be as difficult as it may seem. If you choose to set out on this journey, you will discover the soul that is the true reflection of yourself. "Soul Empowerment" will help uncover and build an empowered soul for you to fulfill your aspirations and lead you to a more meaningful life.
Book Synopsis The Soul in Everyday Life by : Daniel Chapelle
Download or read book The Soul in Everyday Life written by Daniel Chapelle and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2003-09-25 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Soul in Everyday Life argues that modern psychology has given up on dealing with the idea of soul (or psyche), even though the field is named after it. If psychology wishes to be truly satisfying, it needs to be more than behavioral science, according to Daniel Chapelle. He concludes that psychology can only satisfy the deepest human needs when it can offer a sense of soul in everyday life. He explores ways of restoring this sense of soul to everyday life by examining how talk about something as elusive as the soul is possible and by reanimating a sense for what the notion of soul can mean. Working in the tradition of Nietzsche, Freud, Jung, and Jung's student James Hillman, Chapelle reaches back into millennia of Western thought to reanimate the dying sense of soul in everyday life and put the "psyche" back in "psychology."
Book Synopsis Embodied Souls, Ensouled Bodies by : Marc Cortez
Download or read book Embodied Souls, Ensouled Bodies written by Marc Cortez and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2011-10-20 with total page 511 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book explores the relationship between Christology and theological anthropology through the lens provided by the theology of Karl Barth and the mind/body discussion in contemporary philosophy of mind. It thus comprises two major sections. The first develops an understanding of Karl Barth's theological anthropology focusing on three major facets: (1) the centrality of Jesus Christ for any real understanding of human persons; (2) the resources that such a christologically determined view of human nature has for engaging in interdisciplinary discourse; and (3) the ontological implications of this approach for understanding the mind/body relationship. The second part draws on this theological foundation to consider the implications that Christological anthropology has for analyzing and assessing several prominent ways of explaining the mind/body relationship. Specifically, it interacts with two broad categories of theories: 'nonreductive' forms of physicalism and 'holistic' forms of dualism. After providing a basic summary of each, the book applies the insights gained from Barth's anthropology to ascertain the extent to which the two approaches may be considered christologically adequate.
Book Synopsis What It Means to Be Human by : O. Carter Snead
Download or read book What It Means to Be Human written by O. Carter Snead and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2020-10-13 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Wall Street Journal Top Ten Book of the Year A First Things Books for Christmas Selection Winner of the Expanded Reason Award “This important work of moral philosophy argues that we are, first and foremost, embodied beings, and that public policy must recognize the limits and gifts that this entails.” —Wall Street Journal The natural limits of the human body make us vulnerable and dependent on others. Yet law and policy concerning biomedical research and the practice of medicine frequently disregard these stubborn facts. What It Means to Be Human makes the case for a new paradigm, one that better reflects the gifts and challenges of being human. O. Carter Snead proposes a framework for public bioethics rooted in a vision of human identity and flourishing that supports those who are profoundly vulnerable and dependent—children, the disabled, and the elderly. He addresses three complex public matters: abortion, assisted reproductive technology, and end-of-life decisions. Avoiding typical dichotomies of conservative-liberal and secular-religious, Snead recasts debates within his framework of embodiment and dependence. He concludes that if the law is built on premises that reflect our lived experience, it will provide support for the vulnerable. “This remarkable and insightful account of contemporary public bioethics and its individualist assumptions is indispensable reading for anyone with bioethical concerns.” —Alasdair MacIntyre, author of After Virtue “A brilliantly insightful book about how American law has enshrined individual autonomy as the highest moral good...Highly thought-provoking.” —Francis Fukuyama, author of Identity

Download or read book Embodied written by Gregg R. Allison and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2021-05-11 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We rarely give thought to our bodies until faced with a physical challenge or crisis. We have somehow internalized the unbiblical idea that the immaterial aspect of our being (our soul or spirit) is inherently good while the material aspect (our body) is at worst inherently evil and at best neutral--just a vehicle for our souls to get around. So we end up neglecting or disparaging our bodies, seeing them as holding us back from spiritual growth and longing for the day we will be free of them. But the thing is, we don't have bodies; we are our bodies. And God created us that way for a reason. With Scripture as his guide, theologian Gregg Allison presents a holistic theology of the human body from conception through eternity to equip us to address pressing contemporary issues related to our bodies, including how we express our sexuality, whether gender is inherent or constructed, the meaning of suffering, body image, end of life questions, and how to live as whole people in a fractured world.
Book Synopsis Body and Soul in Hellenistic Philosophy by : Brad Inwood
Download or read book Body and Soul in Hellenistic Philosophy written by Brad Inwood and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2020-06-11 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Philosophers and doctors from the period immediately after Aristotle down to the second century CE were particularly focussed on the close relationships of soul and body; such relationships are particularly intimate when the soul is understood to be a material entity, as it was by Epicureans and Stoics; but even Aristotelians and Platonists shared the conviction that body and soul interact in ways that affect the well-being of the living human being. These philosophers were interested in the nature of the soul, its structure, and its powers. They were also interested in the place of the soul within a general account of the world. This leads to important questions about the proper methods by which we should investigate the nature of the soul and the appropriate relationships among natural philosophy, medicine, and psychology. This volume, part of the Symposium Hellenisticum series, features ten scholars addressing different aspects of this topic.
Download or read book Embodiment written by Justin E. H. Smith and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Embodiment--having, being in, or being associated with a body--is a feature of the existence of many entities, perhaps even of all entities. Why entities should find themselves in this condition is the philosophical problem that concerns the present volume. The contributors to this volume shine light on a number of demanding questions that have driven reflection on embodiment throughout the history of philosophy.
Book Synopsis Porphyry’s Place in the Neoplatonic Tradition by : A. Smith
Download or read book Porphyry’s Place in the Neoplatonic Tradition written by A. Smith and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1974 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a slightly emended version of a dissertation presented at the University of Hull in 1972. I realise only too well the deficiencies of style, presentation and material which this involves. The title implies a more final note than I had intended in my treatment of Porphyry. On reflexion, however, it seemed the most suited to convey the general purpose of my enquiries. A more rounded assessment of Porphyry can come only after some more basic work has been completed. An edition of his philosophical fragments, to which I am now turning my attention, is a prerequisite. lowe, of course, a great deal to all those who have written on NeoƯ platonism. I am particularly indebted to Prof. Willy Theiler under whose guidance I studied in Bern. Conversation with him always resulted in new directions of enquiry and I was constantly stimulated by his breadth of knowledge. I must also thank Prof. A.H. Armstrong who has constantly encouraged me and helped me to look more deeply into a number of problems. Welcome, too, was a detailed criticism of Part Two by Dr. R.T. Wallis. Their criticism and advice have not always been followed and the responsibility for the faults and weakƯ nesses of this book rests on myself.
