Download or read book Éléments d'histoire de la philosophie antique written by Jean-Paul Dumont and published by FeniXX. This book was released on 1993-01-01T00:00:00+01:00 with total page 782 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Présente Antiquité. En inventant la philosophie, la Grèce d'autrefois en a forgé les instruments : autant de concepts, de notions, de méthodes qui nourrissent aujourd'hui encore la réflexion des penseurs. Une bibliothèque portative est d'autant plus nécessaire. Indispensable instrument d'initiation et de culture, cet ouvrage est le premier à donner en français un accès direct à un ensemble de textes fondateurs rendus lisibles par l'accompagnement de notes marginales, de notices introductives et de mises au point complémentaires. Les pages choisies se succèdent et s'enchaînent selon un ordre soigneusement progressif, pour montrer comment naissent les concepts philosophiques et ce qu'on peut attendre de leur usage. Des index permettent de dominer aisément l'ensemble. Ainsi ce recueil permet à la fois d'entrer en philosophie et de suivre dans ses cheminements la démarche de la pensée antique qui demeure la nôtre. Jean-Paul Dumont, agrégé de l'Université et docteur ès lettres et sciences humaines, a enseigné la philosophie au lycée, puis à l'université de Lille III où il est titulaire de la chaire d'histoire de la philosophie. Il y aura, trente années durant et sans interruption, été chargé de la préparation à l'agrégation en philosophie antique, tout en donnant pendant quinze ans un cours complémentaire à l'ENS de Fontenay-aux-Roses. Soucieux d'initier directement élèves et étudiants à des textes peu fréquentés, il a édité des traductions nouvelles annotées : Les Sceptiques grecs, textes choisis et traduits, Paris, PUF, 1966 (3e éd. 1992) ; Les Sophistes, fragments et témoignages, Paris, PUF, 1969 ; Les Présocratiques, Paris, Gallimard, La Pléiade, 1988 ; Les Ecoles présocratiques, Paris, Gallimard, Folio-Essais, 1991.
Download or read book After Augustine written by Brian Stock and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2013-11-20 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Augustine of Hippo was the most prolific and influential writer on reading between antiquity and the Renaissance, though he left no systematic treatise on the subject. His reluctance to synthesize his views on other important themes such as the sacraments suggests that he would have been skeptical of any attempt to bring his statements on reading into a formal theory. Yet Augustine has remained the point of reference to which all later writers invariably return in their search for the roots of problems concerning reading and interpretation in the West. Using Augustine as the touchstone, Brian Stock considers the evolution of the meditative reader within Western reading practices from classical times to the Renaissance. He looks to the problem of self-knowledge in the reading culture of late antiquity; engages the related question of ethical values and literary experience in the same period; and reconsiders Erich Auerbach's interpretation of ancient literary realism. In subsequent chapters, Stock moves forward to the Middle Ages to explore the attitude of medieval Latin authors toward the genre of autobiography as a model for self-representation and takes up the problem of reading, writing, and the self in Petrarch. He compares the role of the reader in Augustine's City of God and Thomas More's Utopia, and, in a final important move, reframes the problem of European cultural identity by shifting attention from the continuity and change in spoken language to significant shifts in the practice of spiritual, silent reading in the Middle Ages and Renaissance. A richly rewarding reflection on the history and nature of reading, After Augustine promises to be a centerpiece of discussions about the discovery of the self through literature.
Download or read book Global Bioethics written by Henk ten Have and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-02-10 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The panorama of bioethical problems is different today. Patients travel to Thailand for fast surgery; commercial surrogate mothers in India deliver babies to parents in rich countries; organs, body parts and tissues are trafficked from East to Western Europe; physicians and nurses migrating from Africa to the U.S; thousands of children or patients with malaria, tuberculosis and AIDS are dying each day because they cannot afford effective drugs that are too expensive. Mainstream bioethics as it has developed during the last 50 years in Western countries is evolving into a broader approach that is relevant for people across the world and is focused on new global problems. This book provides an introduction into the new field of global bioethics. Addressing these problems requires a broader vision of bioethics that not only goes beyond the current emphasis on individual autonomy, but that criticizes the social, economic and political context that is producing the problems at global level. This book argues that global bioethics is a necessity because the social, economic and environmental effects of globalization require critical responses. Global bioethics is not a finished product that can simply be applied to solve global problems, but it is the ongoing result of interaction and exchange between local practices and global discourse. It combines recognition of differences and respect for cultural diversity with convergence towards common perspectives and shared values. The book examines the nature of global problems as well as the type of responses that are needed, in order to exemplify the substance of global bioethics. It discusses the ethical frameworks that are available for global discourse and shows how these are transformed into global governance mechanisms and practices.
Download or read book Kabbalah written by Shahar Arzy and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2015-06-30 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this original study, Moshe Idel, an eminent scholar of Jewish mysticism and thought, and the cognitive neuroscientist and neurologist Shahar Arzy combine their considerable expertise to explore the mysteries of the Kabbalah from an entirely new perspective: that of the human brain. In lieu of the theological, sociological, and psychoanalytic approaches that have generally dominated the study of ecstatic mystical experiences, the authors endeavor to decode the brain mechanisms underlying these phenomena. Arzy and Idel analyze first-person descriptions to explore the Kabbalistic techniques employed by most prominent Jewish mystics to effect bodily reduplications, dissociations, and other phenomena, and compare them with recent neurological observations and modern-day laboratory experiments. The resultant study offers readers a scientific, more brain-based understanding of how ecstatic Kabbalists achieved their most precious mystical experiences. The study further demonstrates how these Kabbalists have long functioned as pioneering investigators of the human self.
Book Synopsis Christian Wisdom Meets Modernity by :
Download or read book Christian Wisdom Meets Modernity written by and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2016-05-05 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 'Illuminating Modernity' series examines the great but lesser known thinkers in the 'Romantic Thomist' tradition such as Erich Przywara and Fernand Ulrich and shows how outstanding 20th century theologians like Ratzinger and von Balthasar have depended on classical Thomist thought, and how they radically reinterpreted this thought. The chapters in this volume are dedicated to the encounter between the presuppositions and claims of modern intellectual culture and the Christian confession that the crucified and resurrected Jesus is the power and wisdom of God and is the lord of history and of his church. The scholars contributing to this discussion do not assume that Christianity and modernity are two discrete entities which can be readily defined, nor do they presume that Christian wisdom and modernity meet each other only in conflict or by coincidence. They engage with a variety of great figures – Kierkegaard, Heidegger, Rahner, Przywara, Guardini, Karl Barth, and Karol Wojtyla – to illustrate the connection between modernism and Christian wisdom. The volume concludes with a programmatic statement for the renewal of Christian philosophy that has been able to retain the cosmo-theological vision as outlined by Mezei in the final chapter.
Book Synopsis International Biolaw and Shared Ethical Principles by : Cinzia Caporale
Download or read book International Biolaw and Shared Ethical Principles written by Cinzia Caporale and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-01-12 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Universal Declaration on Bioethics and Human Rights, 2005, marked a significant step towards the recognition of universal standards in the field of science and medicine. This book provides an overview of the ethical and legal developments which have occurred in the field of bioethics and human rights since then. The work critically analyzes the Declaration from an ethical and legal perspective, commenting on its implementation, and discussing the role of non-binding norms in international bioethics. The authors examine whether the Declaration has contributed to the understanding of universal or global bioethics, and to what degree states have implemented the principles in their domestic legislation. The volume explores the currency of the Declaration vis-à-vis the more recent developments in technology and medicine and looks ahead to envisage the major bioethical challenges of the next twenty years. In this context, the book offers a comprehensive ethical and legal study of the Declaration with an in-depth analysis of the meaning of the provisions, in order to clarify the extension of human rights in the field of medicine and the obligations incumbent upon UNESCO member States, with reference to their implementation practice.

Book Synopsis The Act of Faith by : Eric O. Springsted
Download or read book The Act of Faith written by Eric O. Springsted and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2015-02-09 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While the question "Is faith reasonable?" has continually occupied philosophers and theologians, little attention has been paid to what faith itself is. The Act of Faith remedies this neglect by looking at what it means for a person of Christian faith to believe. Eric Springsted contrasts modern views of faith with the Christian tradition running from Augustine through Aquinas and Calvin. In reviewing such thinkers as Locke and Hume, Springsted discovers that behind modern discussions of the reasonableness of faith lie key assumptions about the human self, including the views that the good is a matter of choice and that we can exercise objective, uninvolved reason. According to Springsted, however, the church has not viewed faith in this way. His survey of the Augustinian tradition shows that the self our most esteemed Christian thinkers had in mind when talking about faith was a "moral self"--one defined by character and self-involvement. Christian faith is at root a participation in the good, and reasoning within faith is reasoning within the life of God. Drawing on contemporary philosophers and theologians like John Henry Newman and Simone Weil, Springsted builds a fresh understanding of faith for today. He shows how the "inner act" of faith is ultimately a radical willingness to be open to God, and he argues that the faithful self is one that develops within a community that shapes its members through the morally formative activities of interaction, teaching, and sacramental practice.
