Download or read book The Samurai and the Cross written by and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2022-07-05 with total page 473 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1614 the shogunate prohibited Christianity amidst rumors of foreign plots to conquer Japan. But more than the fear of armed invasions, it was the ideological threat--or spiritual conquest--that the Edo shogunate feared the most. This book explores the encounter of Christianity and premodern Japan in the wider context of global and intellectual history. M. Antoni J. Ucerler examines how the Jesuit missionaries sought new ways to communicate their faith in an unfamiliar linguistic, cultural, and religious environment--and how they sought to re-invent Christianity in the context of samurai Japan. They developed an original moral casuistry or cases of conscience adapted to the specific dilemmas faced by Japanese Christians. This volume situates the European missionary enterprise in East Asia within multiple geopolitical contexts: Both Ming China and Warring States Japan resisted the presence of foreigners and their beliefs. In Japan, where the Jesuits were facing persecution in the midst of civil war, they debated whether they could intervene in military conflicts to protect local communities. Others advocated for the establishment of a Christian republic or civil protectorate. Based on little-known primary sources in various languages, The Samurai and the Cross explores the moral and political debates over religion, law, and reason of state that took place on both the European and the Japanese side.

Book Synopsis Obbedienza religiosa e resistenza politica nella prima eta moderna by : Luisa Simonutti
Download or read book Obbedienza religiosa e resistenza politica nella prima eta moderna written by Luisa Simonutti and published by Brepols Publishers. This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: English summary: These collected studies examine the diverse approaches of Jewish, Christian, and Muslim philosophers to interreligious entente from the Middle Ages to the Early Modern Period. Examining the role of scriptural norms in the development of thought in the West and Middle East, the articles shed light on the fluid limits between religious and political law as an attempt to maintain peace in the public sphere. Italian description: Seguendo una prospettiva storico-critica, i saggi raccolti nel volume propongono un'analisi delle trasformazioni delle idee teologico-politiche nel mondo islamico e nel mondo ebraico-cristiano della prima eta moderna indagando quella affinita intrinseca che rileviamo se, da una mappatura particolare di dati fattuali e di culture specifiche, alziamo lo sguardo verso una prospettiva piu ampia di sviluppo geografico-culturale e di circolazione delle idealita religiose, politiche, filosofiche e giuridiche. In questo volume, specialisti e studiosi della storia della filosofia e del diritto si sono interrogati sul ruolo che il modello normativo scritturale ha avuto nel pensiero occidentale e nel vicino Oriente nell'arco di tempo che va dal lungo medioevo alla modernita. Modelli concettuali, storico-politici e linguistici hanno fatto emergere la questione delle diverse forme di coesistenza religiosa, di coesistenza politica ed etnica in una medesima area geografica o su territori nazionali. I conflitti politico-religiosi cinque-seicenteschi posero filosofi e teologi di fronte al bivio tra l'obbedienza alla legge umana e l'osservanza della legge divina, e resero improrogabile la necessita di porre limiti e di ridisegnare l'estensione del potere politico per conservare la pace nella 'res publica'. Il volume offre un incontro di personalita, di idee, di tradizioni culturali e di ricerche filosofiche e storiche, un progetto di studio e un contributo a successivi approfondimenti che si inserisce in una teoria della storia e della storiografia moderna che concepisce le concrezioni culturali, teoriche e materiali, il loro incontrarsi e trasformarsi attraverso le narrazioni di autori, di popoli, di libri e di traduzioni come nucleo della civilta moderna. Una visione della cultura che, non nell'autocentrismo ma nel transfer culturale, coglie elementi fondanti, insegnamento e origine di riflessioni per la nostra contemporaneita.

Book Synopsis Liberating Voices by : Douglas Schuler
Download or read book Liberating Voices written by Douglas Schuler and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 619 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inspired by the vision and framework outlined in Christopher Alexander's classic 1977 book, A Pattern Language, Schuler presents a pattern language containing 136 patterns designed to meet these challenges. Using this approach, Schuler proposes a new model of social change that integrates theory and practice by showing how information and communication (whether face-to-face, broadcast, or Internet-based) can be used to address urgent social and environmental problems collaboratively. Each of the patterns that form the pattern language (which was developed collaboratively with nearly 100 contributors) is presented consistently; each describes a problem and its context, a discussion, and a solution. The pattern language begins with the most general patterns ("Theory") and proceeds to the most specific ("Tactics"). Each pattern is a template for research as well as action and is linked to other patterns, thus forming a single coherent whole.
Book Synopsis The Boundaries of Europe by : Pietro Rossi
Download or read book The Boundaries of Europe written by Pietro Rossi and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2015-04-24 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Europe’s boundaries have mainly been shaped by cultural, religious, and political conceptions rather than by geography. This volume of bilingual essays from renowned European scholars outlines the transformation of Europe’s boundaries from the fall of the ancient world to the age of decolonization, or the end of the explicit endeavor to “Europeanize” the world.From the decline of the Roman Empire to the polycentrism of today’s world, the essays span such aspects as the confrontation of Christian Europe with Islam and the changing role of the Mediterranean from “mare nostrum” to a frontier between nations. Scandinavia, eastern Europe and the Atlantic are also analyzed as boundaries in the context of exploration, migratory movements, cultural exchanges, and war. The Boundaries of Europe, edited by Pietro Rossi, is the first installment in the ALLEA book series Discourses on Intellectual Europe, which seeks to explore the question of an intrinsic or quintessential European identity in light of the rising skepticism towards Europe as an integrated cultural and intellectual region.

Download or read book Islam in Europe written by Jack Goody and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-05-08 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This vigorously argued book reveals the central role that Islam has played in European history. Following the movement of people, culture and religion from East to West, Goody breaks down the perceived opposition between Islam and Europe, showing Islam to be a part of Europe's past and present. In an historical analysis of religious warfare and forced migration, Goody examines our understanding of legitimate violence, ethnic cleansing and terrorism. His comparative perspective offers important and illuminating insights into current political problems and conflicts. Goody traces three routes of Islam into Europe, following the Arab through North Africa, Spain and Mediterranean Europe; the Turk through Greece and the Balkans; and the Mongol through Southern Russia to Poland and Lithuania. Each thrust made its mark on Europe in terms of population and culture. Yet this was not merely a military impact: especially in Spain, but elsewhere too, Europe was substantially modified by this contact. Today it takes the form of some eleven million immigrants, not to speak of the possible incorporation of further millions through Bosnia, Albania and Turkey.
Book Synopsis Papacy, Religious Orders, and International Politics in the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries by : Autori Vari
Download or read book Papacy, Religious Orders, and International Politics in the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries written by Autori Vari and published by Viella Libreria Editrice. This book was released on 2014-03-08T00:00:00+01:00 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the early modern age religious orders had to interpret papal strategies and directives in international politics in the light of a substantial ambiguity. They were loyal subjects of the pope, but also trusted agents and advisers of princes. They were operatives of the Holy See and, at the same time, of strategies not necessarily in line with Roman guidelines. This ambiguity resulted in conflicts, both overt and latent, between obedience to the pope and obedience to the sovereign, between membership in a universal religious order and individual «national» origins and personal ties, between observance of Roman directives and the need to maintain good relations with the authorities of the territory in which the religious orders lived and worked. This book aims to examine, through a series of case studies not only in Europe but also America and the Middle East, the roles played by religious orders in the international politics of the Holy See. It seeks to determine the extent to which the orders were mere objects or instruments; whether they were able to give life, more or less openly, to autonomous strategies, and for what reasons; and what awareness of their own identity groups or individuals developed in relation to the influences of international politics in an age of conflict.

Book Synopsis A Companion to Border Studies by : Thomas M. Wilson
Download or read book A Companion to Border Studies written by Thomas M. Wilson and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2016-01-19 with total page 642 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Companion to Border Studies A Companion to Border Studies “Taking into consideration all aspects this book has a very important role in the professional literature of border studies.” Cross-Border Review Yearbook of the European Institute “Summing Up: Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates and above.” Choice “This book, with its interdisciplinary team of authors from many world regions, shows the state of the art in this research field admirably.” Ulf Hannerz, Stockholm University “This volume will be the definitive work on borders and border-related processes for years into the future. The editors have done an outstanding job of identifying key themes, and of assembling influential scholars to address these themes. David Nugent, Emory University “This urgently needed Companion, edited by two leading figures of border studies, reflects past insights and showcases new directions: a must read for understanding territory, power and the state.” Dr. Nick Vaughan-Williams, University of Warwick “This impressive collection will have a broad appeal beyond specialist border studies. Anyone with an interest in the nation-state, nationalism, ethnicity, political geography or, indeed, the whole historical project of the modern world system will want to have access to a copy. The substantive scope is global and the intellectual reach deep and wide. Simply indispensable. ” Richard Jenkins, University of Sheffield Dramatic growth in the number of international borders has coincided in recent years with greater mobility than ever before – of goods, people and ideas. As a result, interest in borders as a focus of academic study has developed into a dynamic, multi-disciplinary field, embracing perspectives from anthropology, development studies, geography, history, political science and sociology. Authors provide a comprehensive examination of key characteristics of borders and frontiers, including cross-border cooperation, security and controls, migration and population displacements, hybridity, and transnationalism. A Companion to Border Studies brings together these disciplines and viewpoints, through the writing of an international collection of preeminent border scholars. Drawing on research from Africa, Asia, the Middle East, Europe and the Americas, the contributors argue that the future of Border Studies lies within such diverse collaborations, which approach comparatively the features of borders worldwide.
