Abstract

This Handbook provides a comprehensive single-volume treatment of Fichte’s philosophy. In addition to offering new researchers an authoritative introduction and orientation to Fichtean thought, the volume also surveys the main scholarly and philosophical controversies regarding Fichtean interpretation, and defends a range of philosophical theses in a way that advances the scholarly discussion. Fichte is the first major philosopher in the post-Kantian tradition and the first of the great German Idealists, but he was no mere epigone of Kant or precursor to Hegel. His work speaks powerfully and originally to a wide range of issues of enduring concern, and his many innovations importantly anticipate major developments, including absolute idealism, phenomenology, and existentialism. He is therefore not only a path-breaking thinker but also a pivotal figure in Western intellectual history. Wide-ranging, well-organised and timely, this key volume makes Fichte’s work both accessible and relevant. It is essential reading for scholars, graduate researchers and advanced students interested in Fichte, German Idealism, and the history of nineteenth-century philosophy in the West.

Abstract

"This book considers a movement within Russian religious philosophy known as full unity (vseedinstvo), with a focus on one of its main representatives, Pavel Florensky (1882-1937). Often referred to as "the Russian Leonardo", Florensky was an important figure of the Russian religious renaissance around the beginning of the twentieth century. It is shown that his philosophy, conceptualized in his theory of the icon, brings together the problem of the "religious turn" and the "pictorial turn" in modern culture, as well as contributing to contemporary debates on religion and secularism. Organised around the themes of full unity and visuality, the book examines Florensky's definition of the icon as "energetic symbol," drawing on Gregory Palamas, before offering a theological reading of Florensky's theory of the pictorial space of the icon. It then turns to Florensky's idea of space in the icon as non-Euclidean. Finally, the icon is placed within wider debates provoked by Bolshevik cultural policy, which extend to current discussions concerning religion, modernity, and art. Offering an important contribution from Russian religious philosophy to issues of contemporary modernity, this book will be of interest to scholars of religious philosophy, Russian studies, theology and the arts, and the medieval icon"--

Abstract

Les temps sont mûrs pour définir un nouveau type de comparatisme indo-iranien, qui serait fondé sur une approche globale de littératures pareillement constituées à des fins liturgiques : la védique et la mazdéenne. Telle était la conviction commune aux organisateurs du colloque intitulé 'Aux sources des liturgies indo-iraniennes', qui s?est tenu à l?Université de Liège, les 9 et 10 juin 2016, avec l?appui du Fonds National pour la Recherche Scientifique. Le présent volume, fondé sur les contributions présentées à ce colloque, est destiné à permettre à des indianistes et à des iranistes spécialisés dans ces questions de faire le point sur l?état des connaissances en présence les uns des autres.

Abstract

In this classic historical and cultural study, Carl Ellis offers an in-depth assessment of the state of African American freedom and dignity. He traces the growth of Black consciousness from the days of slavery to the 1990s, noting especially the contributions of King and Malcolm X. Ellis examines elements of Black culture and offers a distinct perspective on how God is active in culture more broadly. He concludes with a call for a new generation of "jazz theologians" to expand the influence of the African American church.
