Abstract

Comme La Pâque de Dieu dont il est la suite, ce livre rassemble quatre études sur l'œuvre et la pensée de saint Anselme (l033-1109), enfant d'Aoste, abbé du Bec, puis archevêque de Cantorbéry. Son argument est le suivant : si nous nous tenons "dans la Vérité" (Jn 8, 44) quand nous nous tournons, avec Jésus, Fils de Dieu et Fils de l'homme, vers Dieu son Père (étude 1), si Jésus, par la libre offrande de sa vie, solde la dette de notre création et de notre péché en donnant plus que le Père ne pouvait exiger de nous et de Lui (étude 11), si nous ne pouvons Lui rendre son amour qu'en la personne de nos frères, qui sont déjà les membres de son Corps (étude III), il nous est impossible, quand nous prions, de ne pas espérer, pour tous les hommes autant que pour nous-mêmes, le Don immense que Dieu prépare pour ses amis "depuis la fondation du monde" (Mt 25, 34). La théologie d'Anselme a pour lieu natif la prière, et prier n'est rien d'autre que s'en remettre à la bonté de Plus grand, dans l'assurance qu'Il "ne peut se renier" (2 Tm 2, 13)

Abstract

This study examines the scientific interests and rationality which find expression in the quadrivial sources of the 9th to 11th centuries, arguing on this basis for the existence of a 'discovery of nature' already prior to the 12th century. It focuses on the theme of 'time', exemplified by Abbo of Fleury's Computus, as well as Hermann of Reichenau's Epistola de quantitate mensis lunaris, Abbreviatio compoti and Prognostica. The systematic and historical background of the study is established through analysis of Alcuin's De vera philosophia, Bede's De temporum ratione and the computistic-astronomical anthologies which were the predominant genre during this period. The volume is complemented by fourteen illustrations and an appendix including Hermann's heretofore unedited texts, the Abbreviatio compoti and Prognostica.

Abstract

The central question posed in this book is: If there existed a superior being who possessed the supernatural qualities of omniscience, omnipotence, immortality, and incomprehensibility, how would he/she act differently from us? The mathematical theory of games is used to define each of these qualities, and different assumptions about the rules of play in several theological games that might be played between ordinary human beings and superior beings like God are posited. Implications of these definitions and assumptions are developed and used to explore such questions as: are God's superior powers compatible with human free will? Can they be reconciled with the problem of evil in the world? In what situation is God's existence "decidable" in gamelike relationships He migh have with us? By endowing omniscience/omnipotence/immortality/incomprehensibility with unambiguous meanings, the author shows how game theory can help breathe life into questions that have been dismissed too quickly simply because they are metaphysical--outside the world of experience. Thereby he clarifies the structure of our thought about an ultimate reality, whether or not it is viewed as religious. Reviews from the first edition: "[Brams's] arguments, some of them quite complicated, are presented clearly and enough background information is given to enable the non-expert in game theory to follow what is going on." - H.N.V. Temperley, Nature (March, 1984) "Superior Beings is an extraordinary book... He [Brams] uses strikingly simple models and generally transparent logic to make some surprising inferences about superiority. His inquiry is carried out with great inventiveness and care, and his book is highly recommended to those interested in religion, philosophy, and the contribution of logical analysis." - D. Marc Kilgur, American Scientist (1984) "Brams has performed a service in deominstrating that rational analysis need not stop where issues involving faith and emotion begin." - Peter Bennett, New Scientist (1 March, 1984) "Does game-theoretic theory exist? This book is a fresh partial answer, modestly phrased and interestingly written. Readers will enjoy it and learn from it whether or not the believe in either God or von Neumann." - Dr. Paul R. Halmos, Indiana University "Professor Brams has boldly invaded an unexplored region where modern game theory and decision theory find applications to monotheistic theology. His carefully constructed arguments would have perplexed Maimonides, Aquinas, Luther, or the great Muslim thinkers... But it is hard to see how they can be ignored by contemporary theologians." - Martin Gardener "[Brams's] work can be highly recommended as collateral reading for introductory courses on mathematical modeling in the social, managerial and decision science-now perhaps even in theology." - William F. Lucas, American Mathematical Monthly (January, 1987).

Abstract

Aims to develop insight into the relation, which Hobbes describes between his theory of government and the three-part division he draws with respect to religion. According to the author, Hobbes falters in carrying out his politico/theological project, and his attempt to describe the relationship of religion and politics, church and state.
