Abstract

Overcoming Uncertainty in Ancient Greek Political Philosophy makes an historical and theoretical contribution by explaining the role of opinion in ancient Greek political philosophy, showing its importance for Aristotle's theory of deliberation, and indicating a new model for a deliberative republic. Currently, there are no studies of opinion in ancient Greek political theory and so the book breaks new historical ground. The book establishes that opinion is key for the political theories of Plato, Aristotle, and the Stoics because each sees uncertainty as a problem that needs to be overcome if one is to establish a virtuous polity. Since they have different notions of the nature of the uncertainty of opinion, they develop very different political strategies to overcome it. The book explains that Plato's and the Stoics' analyses of uncertainty support oligarchy and monarchy, respectively, and that theoretical support for deliberate politics requires a more nuanced understanding of uncertainty that only Aristotle provides.

Abstract

"In Gelübde im antiken Judentum und frühesten Christentum Daniel Schumann aims to trace the earliest discourses on vows, as they are recorded in ancient Jewish and early Christian sources from the time of the Second Temple. He also shows how Judaism and Christianity have participated in ancient forms of vow-making since late antiquity and how they also have developed these discourses further. By presenting these discourses on the basis of a broad range of sources, he reveals how in Jewish as well as in Christian perception, voices of esteem but also of reservation have been raised throughout the centuries. After all, vows are a cult-practical exercise in which well-being and disaster are in closer proximity than in most other acts of devotion"--

Abstract

This book critically explores the development of radical criminological thought through the social, political and cultural history of three periods in Ancient Greece: the Classical, the Hellenistic and the Greco-Roman periods. It follows on from the previous volume which examined concepts of law, legitimacy, crime, justice and deviance through a range of Ancient Greek works including epic and lyrical poetry, drama and philosophy, across different chapters. This book examines the three centuries that followed which were very important for the history of radical thinking about crime and law. It explores the socio-political struggles and how ruptures produced breaks in knowledge production and developed the field of deviance and social control. It also examines the key literature, religions and philosophers of each period. The gap between social consensus and social conflict deepened during this time and influenced the theoretical discourse on crime. These elements continue to exist in the theoretical quests of the modern age of criminology. This book examines the links between the origins of radical criminology and its future. It speaks to those interested in the (pre)history of criminology and the historical production of criminological knowledge.

Abstract

"From ancient Egypt to Imperial Rome, from Greek medicine to early Christianity, this volume examines how human bodily fluids influenced ideas about gender, sexuality, politics, emotions, and morality, and how those ideas shaped later European thought. Comprising 25 chapters across seven key themes - language, gender, eroticism, nutrition, dissolution, death, and afterlife - this volume investigates bodily fluids in the context of the current sensory turn. It asks fundamental questions about physicality and fluidity: how were bodily fluids categorised and differentiated? How were fluids trapped inside the body perceived, and how did this perception alter when those fluids were externalised? Do ancient approaches complement or challenge our modern sensibilities about bodily fluids? How were religious practices influenced by attitudes towards bodily fluids, and how did religious authorities attempt to regulate or restrict their appearance? Why were some fluids taboo, and others cherished? In what ways were bodily fluids gendered? Offering a range of scholarly approaches and voices, this volume explores how ideas about the body and the fluids it contained and externalised are culturally conditioned and ideologically determined. The analysis encompasses the key geographic centres of the ancient Mediterranean basin, including Greece, Rome, Byzantium, and Egypt. By taking a longue durée perspective across a richly intertwined set of territories, this collection is the first to provide a comprehensive, wide-ranging study of bodily fluids in the ancient world. Bodily Fluids in Antiquity will be of particular interest to academic readers working in the fields of classics and its reception, archaeology, anthropology, and ancient to early modern history. It will also appeal to more general readers with an interest in the history of the body and history of medicine"--

Abstract

Filosofie is een volwassen schoolvak geworden. Het is in Nederland een eindexamenvak op de havo en het vwo, met centrale eindexamens, waar jaarlijks ongeveer 5000 leerlingen van 160 scholen aan deelnemen. De Vereniging Filosofiedocenten in het Voortgezet Onderwijs (VFVO) is een bruisende vereniging met jaarlijkse studiedagen en een vakblad (Spinoza!). Op veel scholen wordt inmiddels ook filosofie in de onderbouw gegeven en er wordt op enkele scholen geëxperimenteerd met filosofie op het vmbo. In Vlaanderen zijn onlangs nieuwe eindtermen vastgesteld en wordt filosofie ingezet in het burgerschapsonderwijs. Tijd voor een handboek vakdidactiek!Al jaren hebben docenten filosofie en studenten aan de lerarenopleiding behoefte aan zo?n handboek. Omdat er aan verschillende universiteiten vanuit uiteenlopende tradities vakdidactiek gegeven wordt, is er gekozen voor een handboek met een redactie, waarin een selectie van auteurs, vakdidactici, docenten en Cito-medewerkers vanuit hun eigen expertise een hoofdstuk hebben geschreven.Dit handboek is bedoeld als een handleiding voor beginnende docenten filosofie in het voortgezet onderwijs. Verder biedt het verdieping voor ervaren docenten, en laat het de diversiteit van het schoolvak filosofie zien, zowel in Nederland als in Vlaanderen. Een van de redenen dat filosofie vertragen is, is omdat filosofen altijd vragen ?waarom?. De vraag waarom een school filosofie zou moeten aanbieden, wordt met het lezen van dit boek beantwoord.https://www.boomfilosofie.nl/product/100-10132_Filosofie-op-school
