Dualism, unlike monism, is a system that allows for dynamic and dramatic possibilities. Just as it can explain change and imperfection in the natural world, as the two distance elements of matter and spirit or matter and form strive to accommodate themselves to one another, so in the little world of the human the two elements of body and soul generate conflict as well. Essential to one another and yet incompatible, they provide both an explanation of and a metaphor for the internal, psychological struggle that the individual feels going on within. The body and soul dialogues portray this tradition of conflict in its most fundamental form. They bring together psychological concerns about the nature of humanity and theological concerns about the responsibility for sin. They provide the conceptual centre from which the multiple metaphors and analogies in the rest of the literature radiate.Rosalie Osmond examines both literal and metaphorical aspects of the relationship between body and soul in seventeenth-century literature and their significance within a primarily dualistic philosophy. She begins with an overview of the beliefs concerning body and soul from the time of the Greek philosophers to the seventeenth century. Within the seventeenth century these views, as they manifest themselves in the works of scientific writers and theologians, are examined in some detail. In the central section of the work, she focuses on the medieval dialogues and their seventeenth-century counterparts. The reappearance of the latter, after the form had apparently died out and their subsequent final disappearance late in the century are examined in the light of other literature and theological writings of the period. The final section of the book brings the insights of the first two to bear on seventeenth-century literature other than the debates themselves, including poetry and drama.

Humanity: Texts and Contexts is a record of the 2007 Singapore ""Building Bridges"" seminar, an annual dialogue between Muslim and Christian scholars cosponsored by Georgetown University and the Archbishop of Canterbury. This volume explores three central questions: What does it mean to be human? What is the significance of the diversity that is evident among human beings? And what are the challenges that humans face living within the natural world?. A distinguished group of scholars focuses on the theological responses to each of these questions, drawing on the wealth of material found in bot

Beyond the Centaur questions the accuracy and usefulness of the virtually unquestioned ancient consensus that persons are composed of unequally valued, hierarchically stacked antagonistic components, usually soul or mind and body. Part I explores the gradual historical development of this notion of person. Part II consists of a thought experiment, examining an understanding of persons, not as stacked components, but as intelligent bodies--one entity. It explores how a new understanding of persons can affect in important and fruitful ways how we live: how we move, feel, think, believe, and die.

Religion in Human Evolution is a work of extraordinary ambition—a wide-ranging, nuanced probing of our biological past to discover the kinds of lives that human beings have most often imagined were worth living. It offers what is frequently seen as a forbidden theory of the origin of religion that goes deep into evolution, especially but not exclusively cultural evolution.How did our early ancestors transcend the "idian demands of everyday existence to embrace an alternative reality that called into question the very meaning of their daily struggle? Robert Bellah, one of the leading sociologists of our time, identifies a range of cultural capacities, such as communal dancing, storytelling, and theorizing, whose emergence made this religious development possible. Deploying the latest findings in biology, cognitive science, and evolutionary psychology, he traces the expansion of these cultural capacities from the Paleolithic to the Axial Age (roughly, the first millennium BCE), when individuals and groups in the Old World challenged the norms and beliefs of class societies ruled by kings and aristocracies. These religious prophets and renouncers never succeeded in founding their alternative utopias, but they left a heritage of criticism that would not be quenched. Bellah’s treatment of the four great civilizations of the Axial Age—in ancient Israel, Greece, China, and India—shows all existing religions, both prophetic and mystic, to be rooted in the evolutionary story he tells. Religion in Human Evolution answers the call for a critical history of religion grounded in the full range of human constraints and possibilities.

Long description: Die Schrift De hominis opificio Gregor von Nyssa stellt sich in die lange Tradition antiker Texte zur Anthropologie. Vom Ausgangspunkt des biblischen Schöpfungsberichtes her präsentiert sie eine umfassende Darstellung des Menschen in der Welt. Klassische Fragen der antiken Philosophie zur menschlichen Seele werden ebenso behandelt wie medizinische Details und christliche Themen. Hierbei integriert Gregor von Nyssa mannigfaltiges Gedankengut aus christlichen und paganen Quellen, das er einer Vielzahl anderer Autoren und Werke entnimmt und geschickt zu einem gedanklichen Mosaik verbindet. Die vorliegende Arbeit zeigt die verschiedenen auf diese Weise miteinander im Werk des Nysseners verflochtenen philosophischen Traditionsstränge (Platonismus, Aristotelismus, Stoa) auf.

Der Band eröffnet die neue Reihe des Mediävistenverbandes, in der interdisziplinäre Studien aus dem Bereich der Mittelalterforschung veröffentlicht werden. Er dokumentiert ausgewählte Beiträge des 14. Symposiums des Verbandes, das vom 27. bis 31. März 2011 in Jena stattfand. Im Zentrum stehen die mehr oder weniger expliziten Verhältnisbestimmungen des Menschen zu Gott, von denen die monotheistische mittelalterliche Welt in all ihren Bereichen geprägt ist, im Christentum ebenso wie in Islam und Judentum. Dabei geht es um die Wechselbeziehungen zwischen Gott und Mensch, Gottesbild und Menschenbild, Schöpfer und Kreatur sowie göttlicher und menschlicher Schöpfung beziehungsweise Schöpferkraft. Beiträge aus Literatur-, Musik- und Kunstwissenschaft reflektieren unterschiedliche Formen der Kommunikation zwischen Mensch und Gott, historische Hinführungen zur Geschichte von Konzepten und Vorstellungen sind ebenso vertreten wie klassische theologische oder philosophische Studien. So erscheinen die Formen und Inhalte der Interaktion zwischen Gott und Mensch im Mittealter in all ihrer Fülle.
