Karl Barth's Moral Thought - Gerald Mckenny - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Karl Barth's Moral Thought - Gerald Mckenny - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Does theological ethics articulate moral norms with the assistance of moral philosophy? Or does it leave that task to moral philosophy alone while it describes a distinctively Christian way of acting or form of life? These questions lie at the very heart of theological ethics as a discipline. Karl Barth''s theological ethics makes a strong case for the first alternative. Karl Barth''s Moral Thought follows Barth''s efforts to present God''s grace as a moral norm in his treatments of divine commands, moral reasoning, responsibility, and agency. It shows how Barth''s conviction that grace is the norm of human action generates problems for his ethics at nearly every turn, as it involves a moral good that confronts human beings from outside rather than perfecting them as the kind of creature they are. Yet it defends Barth''s insistence on the right of theology to articulate moral norms, and it shows how Barth may lead theological ethics to exercise that right in a more compelling way than he did.

Kant and the Historical Turn - Karl Ameriks - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Kant and the Historical Turn - Karl Ameriks - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Immanuel Kant's work changed the course of modern philosophy; Karl Ameriks examines how. He compares the philosophical system set out in Kant's Critiques with the work of the major philosophers before and after Kant. Individual essays provide case studies in support of Ameriks's thesis thatlate 18th-century reactions to Kant initiated an "historical turn," after which historical and systematic considerations became joined in a way that fundamentally distinguishes philosophy from science and art.

Off-Stage Groups in Athenian Drama - Alexandra Hardwick - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Off-Stage Groups in Athenian Drama - Alexandra Hardwick - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Despite the crucial roles they often play, no study yet compares the off-stage assemblies, armies, and populations found in surviving Athenian dramatic works. Covering fifth- and early fourth-century tragedy and comedy, Off-Stage Groups in Athenian Drama analyses how off-stage groups influence and respond to events on stage, and how characters interact with these groups. Drama exploits these groups'' off-stage nature by depicting them through different characters'' viewpoints: characters often struggle to define, predict, or control off-stage groups, which obscures and challenges the audience''s ability to interpret them. The interaction between multivalent and sometimes contradictory narratives of off-stage groups demands a new interpretive framework. Off-Stage Groups in Athenian Drama provides this framework, offering new readings of several prominent comedies and tragedies. However, the importance of this framework extends beyond drama. The first chapter surveys depictions of group decision-making in fifth-century prose, in order to demonstrate how Athenian drama responds to prose depictions of group psychology. Athenian drama engages with the early ideas of group psychology circulating in fifth- and early fourth-century Athens; it creates fictive worlds where stereotypical depictions of collective emotion can be probed, explored and taken to their logical extremes. Studying off-stage groups therefore allows us to rethink our understanding of narrative, politics, and social psychology in drama, and the ways in which these fields intersect.

Karl Rahner and Ignatian Spirituality - Philip Endean Sj - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Karl Rahner and Ignatian Spirituality - Philip Endean Sj - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Karl Rahner SJ (1904-1984), perhaps the most influential figure in twentieth-century Roman Catholic theology, believed that the most significant influence on his work was Ignatius Loyola''s Spiritual Exercises. This book casts significant new light on Rahner''s achievement by presenting it against the background of the rediscovery of Ignatian spirituality in the middle decades of the twentieth century. It offers a fresh and contemporary theological interpretation of Ignatian retreat-giving, illuminating the creative new departures this ministry has taken in the last thirty years, as well as contributing to the lively current debate regarding the relationship between spirituality and speculative theology.

Kant's Theory of Mind - Karl Ameriks - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Kant's Theory of Mind - Karl Ameriks - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

In this seminal contribution to Kant studies, originally published in 1982, Karl Ameriks presented the first thorough survey and evaluation of Kant''s theory of mind. Ameriks focuses first on Kant''s discussion of the Paralogisms in the Critique of Pure Reason, and examines how the themes raised there are treated in the rest of Kant''s writings. It is demonstrated that Kant developed a theory of mind that is much more rationalistic and defensible than most interpreters have allowed, a theory that is of great significance for the understanding of his philosophy as a whole.Kant''s Theory of Mind is now brought up to date with a substantial preface and postscript, as well as many additional references to the literature. This expanded edition will enhance the book''s continued value for today''s Kantians and philosophers of mind.

Karl Barth - Christiane Tietz - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Karl Barth - Christiane Tietz - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

From the beginning of his career, Swiss theologian Karl Barth (1886-1969) was often in conflict with the spirit of his times. While during the First World War German poets and philosophers became intoxicated by the experience of community and transcendence, Barth fought against all attempts to locate the divine in culture or individual sentiment. This freed him for a deep worldly engagement: he was known as "the red pastor," was the primary author of the founding document of the Confessing Church, the Barmen Theological Declaration, and after 1945 protested the rearmament of the Federal Republic of Germany. Christiane Tietz compellingly explores the interactions between Barth''s personal and political biography and his theology. Numerous newly-available documents offer insight into the lesser-known sides of Barth such as his long-term three-way relationship with his wife Nelly and his colleague Charlotte von Kirschbaum. This is an evocative portrait of a theologian who described himself as ''"God''s cheerful partisan"'' who was honored as a prophet and a genial spirit, was feared as a critic, and shaped the theology of an entire century as no other thinker.

Kantian Subjects - Karl Ameriks - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Kantian Subjects - Karl Ameriks - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

In this volume, Karl Ameriks explores ''Kantian subjects'' in three senses. In Part I, he first clarifies the most distinctive features-such as freedom and autonomy-of Kant''s notion of what it is for us to be a subject. Other chapters then consider related ''subjects'' that are basic topics in other parts of Kant''s philosophy, such as his notions of necessity and history. Part II examines the ways in which many of us, as ''late modern,'' have been highly influenced by Kant''s philosophy and its indirect effect on our self-conception through successive generations of post-Kantians, such as Hegel and Schelling, and early Romantic writers such as Hölderlin, Schlegel, and Novalis, thus making us ''Kantian subjects'' in a new historical sense. By defending the fundamentals of Kant''s ethics in reaction to some of the latest scholarship in the opening chapters, Ameriks offers an extensive argument that Hölderlin expresses a valuable philosophical position that is much closer to Kant than has generally been recognized. He also argues that it was necessary for Kant''s position to be supplemented by the new conception, introduced by the post-Kantians, of philosophy as fundamentally historical, and that this conception has had a growing influence on the most interesting strands of Anglophone as well as Continental philosophy.

Against Nature - Joris Karl Huysmans - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

`It will be the biggest fiasco of the year - but I don''t care a damn! It will be something nobody has ever done before, and I shall have said what I had to say.'' As Joris -Karl Huysmans announced in 1884, Against Nature was fated to be a novel like no other. Resisting the models of classic nineteenth-century fiction, it focuses on the attempts of its anti-hero, the hypersensitive neurotic and aesthete, Des Esseintes, to escape Paris and the vulgarity of modern life. Holed up in his private museum of high taste, he offers Huysmans''s readers a treasure trove of cultural delights which anticipates many of the strains of modernism in its appreciation of Baudelaire, Moreau, Redon, Mallarmé and Poe. This new translation is supplemented by indispensable notes which enhance the understanding of a highly allusive work. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World''s Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford''s commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

Karl Barth - Professor Timothy J. Gorringe - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Karl Barth - Professor Timothy J. Gorringe - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Karl Barth (1886-1968) was the most prolific theologian of the twentieth century. Avoiding simple paraphrasing, Dr Gorringe places the theology in its social and political context, from the First World War through to the Cold War by following Barth''s intellectual development through the years that saw the rise of national socialism and the development of communism. Barth initiated a theological revolution in his two Commentaries on Romans, begun during the First World War. His attempt to deepen this during the turbulent years of the Weimar Republic made him a focus of theological resistance to Hitler after the rise to power of the Nazi party. Expelled from Germany, he continued to defy fashionable opinion by refusing to condemn communism after the Second World War. Drawing on a German debate largely ignored by Anglo-Saxon theology Dr Gorringe shows that Barth responds to the events of his time not just in his occasional writings, but in his magnum opus, the Church Dogmatics. In conclusion Dr Gorringe asks what this admittedly patriarchal author still has to contribute to contemporary theology, and in particular human liberation.

Kant's Reason - Prof Karl Schafer - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Kant's Reason - Prof Karl Schafer - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Kant''s Reason develops a novel interpretation of Kant''s conception of reason and its philosophical significance. Karl Schafer argues that Kant presents a powerful model for understanding the unity of theoretical and practical reason as two manifestations of a unified capacity for theoretical and practical understanding (or "comprehension"). This model allows us to do justice to the deep commonalities between theoretical and practical rationality, without reducing either to the other. In particular, it enables us to see why the activities of both theoretical and practical reason are governed by a version of the Principle of Sufficient Reason, while also seeing why reason is essentially autonomous. At the same time, Kant''s Reason reads Kant as presenting a compelling picture of the role that reason, as a capacity or power, should play in a systematic approach to foundational philosophical questions. In doing so, it argues for an account of the fundamental norms that apply to rational beings that treats neither substantive reasons or values nor merely structural rationality as fundamental, but instead provides a robust conception of reason as a power or capacity for theoretical and practical understanding. The result is a form of rational constitutivism, which contrasts both with the forms of reasons fundamentalism that are currently fashionable and the forms of agency-first constitutivism that have dominated Kantian metaethics. In this sense, this volume aims to vindicate Kant''s insistence that his philosophy represents nothing more or less than reason''s implicit self-understanding coming to explicit and systematic self-consciousness.

Interpreting Kant's Critiques - Karl Ameriks - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Interpreting Kant's Critiques - Karl Ameriks - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Karl Ameriks here collects his most important essays to provide a uniquely detailed and up-to-date analysis of Kant''s main arguments in all three major areas of his work: theoretical philosophy (Critique of Pure Reason), practical philosophy (Critique of Practical Reason), and aesthetics (Critique of Judgment).A substantial, specially written introduction sets out common themes in the structure and interpretation of Kant''s Critical philosophy. The first part of the book includes several of the author''s well-known essays on the Critique of Pure Reason , emphasizing Kant''s central theoretical notions of a transcendental deduction and transcendental idealism, and providing an extensive review of recent English and German scholarship in this area. Part II includes new discussions of the Critique of Practical Reason and its relation to Kant''s other main work in moral theory, the Groundwork of the Metaphysics of Morals. Part III focuses on taste and the Critique of Judgment, and on the controversial hypothesis that even in this area Kant''s position is fundamentally objective and conceptual.This collection has two distinctive characteristics. First, it demonstrates in detail how, for understanding the basic structure of any one of Kant''s Critiques, it is extremely important and helpful to keep in mind its logical and historical relation to Kant''s other Critiques - and hence to track the parallels and differences between theoretical, practical, and aesthetic forms of judgment and reason. Secondly, the book makes interpretation itself a central issue. That is, not only does it offer a series of interrelated interpretations of Kant''s main works, along with a detailed comparison and assessment of other interpretations, but it also argues that the difficulty of interpretation is itself a central feature of the Critical philosophy, and that the difficulties of that philosophy have become paradigmatic for modern philosophy in general. Interpreting Kant''s Critiques complements and extends the arguments of the author''s earlier books, Kant''s Theory of Mind and Kant and the Fate of Autonomy. It will find a wide readership not just amongst Kant specialists but among the many philosophers following in his footsteps.

One Century of Karl Jaspers' General Psychopathology - - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

One Century of Karl Jaspers' General Psychopathology - - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

2013 sees the centenary of Jaspers'' foundation of psychopathology as a science in its own right. In 1913 Karl Jaspers published his psychiatric opus magnum - the Allgemeine Psychopathologie (General Psychopathology). Jaspers was working at a time much like our own - with rapid expansion in the neurosciences, and responding to the philosophical challenges that this raised. The idea inspiring his book was very simple: to bring order into the chaos of abnormal psychic phenomena by rigorous description, definition and classification, and to empower psychiatry with a valid and reliable method to assess and make sense of abnormal human subjectivity. After almost one century, many of the concepts challenged by Jaspers are still at issue, and Jaspers'' investigation is even now the ground for analyses and discussions. With a new edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM) imminent, many of the issues concerning methodology and diagnosis are still the subject of much discussion and debate. This volume brings together leading psychiatrists and philosophers to discuss and evaluate the impact of this volume, its relevance today, and the legacy it left."Jaspers'' General Psychopathology is not an easy text to read. Especially nowadays, in the Internet era, it may appear in several parts obscure, convoluted, or repetitive. This is why the present volume has the potential to be not only attractive to scholars, but also extremely useful for young psychiatrists and busy clinicians. It may represent for them a ''guide'' to the reading of that ponderous text, helping them to extract the key messages that are likely to resonate with, and at the same time enrich, their clinical practice and theoretical reflection." - From the Introduction by Mario Maj

Kant and the Historical Turn - Karl Ameriks - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Kant and the Historical Turn - Karl Ameriks - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Immanuel Kant''s work changed the course of modern philosophy; in these essays Karl Ameriks examines how. He compares the philosophical system set out in Kant''s Critiques with the work of the major philosophers before and after him (Descartes, Berkeley, Hume, Reid, Jacobi, Reinhold, the early German Romantics, Hegel, Feuerbach, and Marx). A systematic introduction argues that complexities in the interpretation of Kant''s system led to a new emphasis on history, subjectivity, and aesthetics. This emphasis defined a distinctive interpretive style of philosophizing that has become especially influential and fruitful once again in our own time. The individual essays provide case studies in support of the thesis that late 18th-century reactions to Kant initiated an ''historical turn'', after which historical and systematic considerations became joined in a way that fundamentally distinguishes philosophy from science and art, without falling back into mere historicism. In this way it is shown that philosophy''s ''historical turn'' is both similar to and unlike the turn to history undertaken by most other disciplines in this era. Part One argues that close attention to the historical context of Kant''s philosophy is crucial to avoiding frequent misunderstandings that have arisen in comparing Kant with other major modern philosophers. Part Two contends that it was mainly the writing of Kant''s first major interpreter that led to special philosophical emphasis on history in other major post-Kantian thinkers. Part Three argues that Hegel''s system and its influence on post-Hegelians were determined largely by variations on Reinhold''s historical turn. Part Four engages with major contemporary philosophers who have combined a study of particular themes in Kant and German Idealism with an appreciation for phenomena closely associated with the general notion of an historical turn in philosophy.

The Ecclesiology of Karl Rahner - Richard Lennan - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

`a competent historically nuanced exposition of and commentary upon Rahner''s many ecclesiological writings ... the merit of Richard Lennan''s work is two-fold: firstly, he does us the service of reminding us that the importance of Rahner''s theological vision and insights ... secondly and more pointedly ... Lennan makes a significant contribution to the task of rescuing them from the disregard which is all too frequently their current lot.'' New Blackfriars `This superb work fills a major gap on the Christian and Catholic ecclesiology shelf....Belongs in every theological collection.'' Choice `Lennan has produced a clear, balanced, insightful, and highly readable text.'' Christian Century `Through such a labyrinth one needs a guide, and this is the great strength of Lennan''s book ... all readers of Rahner and all students of the doctrine of the Church will benefit from this book.'' The Tablet In the years since the Second Vatican Council, the Catholic Church has struggled to renew its self-understanding and revise its relationship to the world. This book examines the contribution made to those debates by Karl Rahner (1904-84), one of the foremost Catholic theologians of this century. The book situates Rahner''s ecclesiology in the context of his whole theology, focusing in particular on the evolution of his thought over a fifty-year period. Dr Lennan shows how Rahner''s approach to the Church was radicalized by his awareness of the rate of social change in the twentieth century. Faithful to the Church''s tradition, Rahner was nonetheless convinced of the Church''s need to reform its structures and clarify its doctrines in order to respond to a pluralist society. Rahner''s vision of the future centred on a church committed both to preservation of its heritage and an openness to change.

Kant's Elliptical Path - Karl (university Of Notre Dame) Ameriks - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Kant's Elliptical Path - Karl (university Of Notre Dame) Ameriks - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Kant''s Elliptical Path explores the main stages and key concepts in the development of Kant''s Critical philosophy, from the early 1760s to the 1790s. Karl Ameriks provides a detailed and concise account of the main ways in which the later Critical works provide a plausible defence of the conception of humanity''s fundamental end that Kant turned to after reading Rousseau in the 1760s. Separate essays are devoted to each of the three Critiques, as well as to earlier notes and lectures and several of Kant''s later writings on history and religion. A final section devotes three chapters to post-Kantian developments in German Romanticism, accounts of tragedy up through Nietzsche, and contemporary philosophy. The theme of an elliptical path is shown to be relevant to these writers as well as to many aspects of Kant''s own life and work.The topics of the book include fundamental issues in epistemology and metaphysics, with a new defense of the Amerik''s ''moderate'' interpretation of transcendental idealism. Other essays evaluate Kant''s concept of will and reliance on a ''fact of reason'' in his practical philosophy, as well as his critique of traditional theodicies, and the historical character of his defense of religion and the concepts of creation and hope within ''the boundaries of mere reason''. Kant''s Elliptical Path will be of value to historians of modern philosophy and Kant scholars, while its treatment of several literary figures and issues in aesthetics, politics, history, and theology make it relevant to readers outside of philosophy.

Sounding Off brings together a selection of essays on philosophy of music written by Peter Kivy--the leading expert on the subject. The essays fall into four groups, corresponding to Kivy''s major interests. Part I contains two essays on the nature of musical genius. In Part II, three essays take up the subject of authenticity in performance, and explore what Kivy terms ''the authenticity of interpretation''. Part III contains four essays concerning the much discussed issues of musical representation and musical meaning. Finally, Part IV consists of three essays on the ''pure musical parameters'': these are essays on ''music alone'' or ''absolute music''--music as the pure, formal structure of (sometimes) expressive sound. Eight of the eleven essays presented here are previously unpublished, and the book includes two appendices which provide Kivy''s responses to criticism.

The Song of Songs and the Fashioning of Identity in Early Latin Christianity - Karl Shuve - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

The Song of Songs and the Fashioning of Identity in Early Latin Christianity - Karl Shuve - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

In this work, Karl Shuve provides a new account of how the Song of Songs became one of the most popular biblical texts in medieval Western Christianity, through a close and detailed study of its interpretation by late antique Latin theologians. It has often been presumed that early Latin writers exercised little influence on the medieval interpretation of the poem, since there are so few extant commentaries from the period. But this is to overlook the hundreds of citations of and allusions to the Song in the writings of influential figures such as Cyprian, Ambrose, Jerome, and Augustine as well as the lesser-known theologian Gregory of Elvira. Through a comprehensive analysis of these citations and allusions, Shuve argues that contrary to the expectations of many modern scholars, the Song of Songs was not a problematic text for early Christian theologians, but was a resource that they mined as they debated the nature of the church and of the virtuous life. The first part of the volume considers the use of the Song in the churches of Roman Africa and Spain, where bishops and theologians focused on images of enclosure and purity invoked in the poem. In the second part, the focus is late fourth-century Italy, where a new ascetic interpretation, concerned particularly with women''s piety, began to emerge. This erotic poem gradually became embedded in the discursive traditions of Latin Late Antiquity, which were bequeathed to the Christian communities of early medieval Europe.
