Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study of religion and violence “forces us to reexamine some of our most cherished self-images of modern liberal democratic societies” (Charles Taylor). Jean-Pierre Dupuy, prophet of what he calls “enlightened doomsaying,” has long warned that modern society is on a path to self-destruction. In this book, he pleads for a subversion of this crisis from within, arguing that it is our lopsided view of religion and reason that has set us on this course. In denial of our sacred origins and hubristically convinced of the powers of human reason, we cease to know our own limits: our disenchanted world leaves us defenseless against a headlong rush into the abyss of global warming, nuclear holocaust, and the other catastrophes that loom on our horizon. Reviving the religious anthropology of Max Weber, Emile Durkheim, and Marcel Mauss and in dialogue with the work of René Girard, Dupuy shows that we must remember the world’s sacredness in order to keep human violence in check. A metaphysical and theological detective, he tracks the sacred in the very fields where human reason considers itself most free from everything it judges irrational: science, technology, economics, political and strategic thought. In making such claims, The Mark of the Sacred takes on religion bashers, secularists, and fundamentalists at once. Written by one of the deepest and most versatile thinkers of our time, it militates for a world where reason is no longer an enemy of faith. “The Mark of the Sacred is one of those rare books . . . which, in an enlightened well-organized state, should be printed and freely distributed in all schools!” —Slavoj Žižek

This book was released on 2000 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Missionary Outreach of the West Indian Church is the story of Jamaican Baptists, ex-slaves who, four years after Emancipation (1838), established a witness in the Cameroons (West Africa) in cooperation with their British pastors and with the reluctant aid of the Baptist Missionary Society of London. Professor Russell analyzes the relationship between the undertaking of the mission and the new self-awareness of a freed people. The institutions created to achieve their aims are discussed and their fortunes are followed amid the chaotic ecclesiastical, economic, and political happenings consequent upon the Anglo/Hispanic rivalry at the time. The book is also a study of what happens when a mission-field becomes a mission agency with missionaries of its own.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La 4e de couverture indique : "Au XIIe siècle, dans des conditions qui nous sont encore obscures, naît la faculté de droit de Paris. À l'origine dédiée au droit canon, elle va s'ouvrir au droit romain, enseignement rapidement interdit par le pape Honorius III en 1219. En 1533 et 1534, le Parlement la réforme : l'enseignement est désormais confié à un collège de six docteurs qui seront remplacés à la suite d'un concours public, la dispute, véritable affrontement entre les candidats. Plus tard, un nouvel arrêt vient bousculer l'organisation de la faculté : il institue les docteurs honoraires, nos futurs agrégés, élus lors des assemblées solennelles de la Saint-Mathias et de la Saint-Jean-Baptiste. Si l'enseignement du droit est le fondement même de la faculté, l'aspect politique n'est pas en reste : par une manoeuvre habile, elle se voit concéder les bonnes grâces des conseillers et ministres d'Etat en les nommant docteurs ou doyens honoraires. La tutelle du Parlement s'en trouve ainsi amoindrie et la faculté de droit protégée par les personnages les plus haut placés de l'Etat. En 1679, Louis XIV rétablit l'enseignement du droit romain à Paris et, plus surprenant, institue un professeur de droit français. Ainsi naît la faculté des droits : canon, romain et français. C'est cette histoire surprenante que Guy Antonetti, professeur émérite de l'université Panthéon-Assas, nous propose de découvrir à travers les portraits des docteurs honoraires, régents, agrégés, et d'un professeur de droit français de la faculté des droits de Paris. L'auteur redessine les contours d'un petit groupe socioprofessionnel particulier, nourri par une forte camaraderie intellectuelle mais aussi par de profondes inimitiés ; il nous ouvre les portes des lieux de vie des enseignants, nous conte leur histoire personnelle au fil d'un récit minutieux, conclusion d'un travail de recherche époustouflant.
