En s’affranchissant de la tutelle divine, le droit nous a permis de conquérir les libertés, la tolérance et l’égalité, qui sont des biens irremplaçables de la modernité juridique. Mais en donnant à l’individu la place désertée par la divinité, en laissant les idéologies meurtrières puis l’anomie du marché régler nos existences, n’avons-nous pas précipité l’homme dans une solitude qui risque de ruiner les biens de l’autonomie ? Serait-il possible de retrouver une ferveur de substitution sans retomber dans les aberrations totalitaires ou nationalistes ? Pouvons nous, pour ce faire, réinventer une éthique de la sollicitude et demander au droit de l’intégrer à ses catégories alors qu’il s’est efforcé, depuis deux cents ans, de s’en affranchir ? Les six leçons données aux Facultés Notre-Dame de la Paix en 2005, dans le cadre de la Chaire Francqui, sont consacrées à ces questions. Elles analysent six moments de la production juridictionnelle, précisent comment ils ont bouleversé nos routines et tentent de découvrir en quoi ils pourraient inspirer nos pratiques.

"Nathaniel Marx argues that the defining characteristic of authentic liturgy is harmony. He unfolds the meaning of the call to authentic worship through scriptural exegesis, liturgical history, anthropology of ritual, and philosophy of action"--

"A longstanding question at the intersection of science, philosophy, and theology is how God might act, or not, when governing the universe. Many believe that determinism would prevent God from acting at all, since to do so would require violating the laws of nature. However, when a robust view of these laws is coupled with the kind of determinism now used in dynamics, a new model of divine action emerges. This book presents a new approach to divine action beyond the current focus on quantum mechanics and esoteric gaps in the causal order. It bases this approach on two general points. First, that there are laws of nature is not merely a metaphor. Second, laws and physical determinism are now understood in mathematically precise ways that have important implications for metaphysics. The explication of these two claims shows not only that nonviolationist divine action is possible, but there is considerably more freedom available for God to act than current models allow. By bringing a philosophical perspective to an issue often dominated by theologians and scientists, this text redresses an imbalance in the discussion around divine action. It will, therefore, be of keen interest to scholars of Philosophy and Religion, the Philosophy of Science, and Theology"--

In this book, Tyson Putthoff explores the relationship between gods and humans, and between divine nature and human nature, in the Ancient Near East. In this world, gods lived among humans. The two groups shared the world with one another, each playing a special role in maintaining order in the cosmos. Humans also shared aspects of a godlike nature. Even in their natural condition, humans enjoyed a taste of the divine state. Indeed, gods not only lived among humans, but also they lived inside them, taking up residence in the physical body. As such, human nature was actually a composite of humanity and divinity. Putthoff offers new insights into the ancients' understanding of humanity's relationship with the gods, providing a comparative study of this phenomenon from the third millennium BCE to the first century CE.
