Jews and New Christians in the Making of the Atlantic World in the 16th-17th Centuries: A Survey

Jews and New Christians in the Making of the Atlantic World in the 16th-17th Centuries: A Survey

Amsterdam Jews appeared up to the mid-17th century as Braudelian "great Jewish merchants." However, the New Christians, heretic judaizantes in the eyes of the Inquisition, dispersed around the world group sui generis, were equally crucial. Their religious identities were fluid, but at the same time they and the "new Jews" from Amsterdam formed a part of economic modernity epitomized by the rebellious Netherlands and the developing Atlantic economy. At the height of their influence they played a pivotal, albeit controversial, role in the rising slave trade. The disappearance of New Christians in Latin America had to be contextualised with inquisitorial persecutions and growing competition in mind.

Clement of Alexandria and the Beginnings of Christian Apophaticism

Clement of Alexandria and the Beginnings of Christian Apophaticism

Henny Fiska Hägg

Oxford University Press
2006
sidottu
Can humans know God? Can created beings approach the Uncreated? The concept of God and questions about our ability to know him are central to this book. Eastern Orthodox theology distinguishes between knowing God as he is (his divine essence) and as he presents himself (through his energies), and thus it both negates and affirms the basic question: man cannot know God in his essence, but may know him through his energies. Henny Fiska Hagg investigates this earliest stage of Christian negative (apophatic) theology, as well as the beginnings of the distinction between essence and energies, focusing on Clement of Alexandria in the late second century. Clement's theological, social, religious, and philosophical milieu is also considered, as is his indebtedness to Middle Platonism and its concept of God.

The Rationality of Christian Belief

The Rationality of Christian Belief

John Hendry

Little Rowarth
2021
pokkari
It is a common theme of atheist critics that Christian belief is irrational. In making this claim, however, they routinely assume that what Christians mean by belief is essentially the same as what scientists and philosophers mean by it, i.e. a kind of objective knowledge claim. In a religious context, however, as in everyday language, beliefs more commonly refer to more subjective attitudes of trust and commitment, and while these may well rely on knowledge claims they don't necessarily do so. Varying from one person to another, religious beliefs may or may not be irrational, and even if irrational they may still be quite reasonable, all things considered, as practical choices and commitments. In this book, written for the general reader, John Hendry explores the variety of ways in which Christians believe and the rationality and reasonableness of the resulting beliefs, as well as of atheist alternatives. Beginning with introductions to philosophical reasoning, the meanings of belief and the varieties of Christian believing, the book includes rational comparisons of theism, atheism and physicalism and rational analyses of both literal and more allegorical understandings of Christian doctrine, with a particular focus on claims of revelation. It concludes that while Christian beliefs are not necessarily irrational they tend in practice to be so. There is a tension between rationality and Christian belief that is hard to avoid. There are contexts, however, in which we quite reasonably set aside specific demands of rationality without compromising our rationality more generally, and religion, it is argued, is one of these contexts. Christianity is at root a choice as to how to live one's life, what to believe in and what to commit to, and whilst it is not everybody's choice it would seem on the whole to be a perfectly reasonable one.

How did personal convictions lead to religious revolutions in the lives of the Sahabah? Explore the transformative power of belief through the lives of those who walked with the Prophet.The Sahabah are the Muslim companions of the Prophet Muhammad. This category of people are known as Ahl-Kitab Sahabah because they had previously believed in the previous Islamic prophets such as Moses and Jesus as well as books of divine revelation prior to meeting Muhammad and confirming his message as the God-given truth. These were the contemporary disciples of Muhammad who were Jews and Christians who met him and became Muslims. In the heart of Islamic history, former Jews and Christians like Abdullah bin Salam and Salman al-Farsi changed their entire worldviews, embracing Islam after profound encounters with the Prophet Muhammad. The author, a former Christian who became Muslim himself, brings these stories to life, highlighting the themes of wisdom, humility, and the quest for truth. The narratives are embedded with historical contexts, showing how personal journeys of faith and conversion contributed to the spread and enrichment of Islam. By turning the pages of this book, you engage with stories that not only recount historical facts but also inspire personal reflection and societal understanding.

PART I. 43 Jesus is Hidden God Chapter I 43 JESUS HIDDEN IN HIS GENERAL SELF-ANNIHILATION. Jesus hidden as He is God. God everywhere present, yet everywhere forgotten and ignored. Creatures alone regarded; the Creator disregarded and offended. How little fear of His Divine Majesty even among Christians and Catholics. Jesus hidden as He is man; whilst men delight in display. Chapter II 52 JESUS HIDDEN AS TO HIS GENERATION ETERNAL AND TEMPORAL. The value set upon birth, and rank, and state in the world; and that even by ecclesiastics. Contrast: the Crib of Bethlehem. Christians the disciples of the carpenter's Son. Chapter III 57 JESUS HIDDEN AS TO HIS NATURAL QUALITIES. His natural gifts sublime, yet concealed. Father De Condren's answer when urged to write. The Gospels and their writers. Our Lord's teaching by parables a lesson to the learned and the intellectual. His concealment of His personal beauty a warning to the vain and self-complacent. His withdrawal of His sensible presence from His disciples contrasted with men's desire to display their natural advantages; and that even in the churches. Chapter IV 66 JESUS HIDDEN IN HIS PRIVATION OF TEMPORAL GOODS. Jesus the King of kings, yet the poorest man on earth. Fruits of this poverty in the hearts of His followers. Advantages of compulsory over voluntary poverty. It admits to a deeper participation in the abject life of Jesus. Is more contemptible in the eyes of men. Devout people themselves ashamed of it. Chapter V 71 JESUS HIDDEN IN HIS PRIVATION OF THE ESTEEM AND FRIENDSHIP OF CREATURES. Creatures engrossed with creatures. Desire of their esteem and approbation strong in us to the last. How nature predominates in the intercourse even of the good and devout. Jesus our model. His extreme and utter privations. Chapter VI 76 JESUS HIDDEN IN IGNOMINIES. Nothing conceals more than contempt and disgrace. Loss of reputation a mark of God's love to us. A sure way of sharing the hidden life of Jesus. His treatment at the hands of men. Contrast of our pride and love of exaltation. Chapter VII 81 JESUS HIDDEN AS TO HIS POWER. The ordinary conduct of Christians wholly opposed to that of Jesus. He who is All makes Himself nothing; and we who are nothing are always desiring to be something. His weakness apparently extreme. His refusal to exhibit His power. Our exceeding weakness contrasted with our self-importance. Chapter VIII 86 JESUS HIDDEN AS TO HIS OFFICES AND DIGNITIES. Jesus a bishop. But a bishop without honour. Comparison of St. Martin of Tours. The episcopate of Jesus glorious, yet discharged amid poverty, contempt, and suffering. He assumed not the office to Himself: yet men seek ecclesiastical benefices and dignities for themselves and their relatives; and that without regard to a divine vocation. The sin and misery of this. Chapter IX 96 JESUS HIDDEN AS TO HIS GRACES. Jesus always enjoyed the beatific vision, yet never allowed its glory to appear; except once, and then in secret. So also with respect to the hypostatic union. The lesson to be derived From this; especially by directors. Particular saints have been divinely moved to speak of the graces they have received; but generally saints have laboured to conceal them. Hence the comparatively slight knowledge we possess of the marvels wrought in their souls. The duty, nevertheless, of being unreserved with our director. Plus 14 More Chapters

Henri Poincare: A Biography Through The Daily Papers

Henri Poincare: A Biography Through The Daily Papers

On July 17, 2012, the centenary of Henri Poincaré's death was commemorated; his name being associated with so many fields of knowledge that he was considered as the Last Universalist. In Pure and Applied Mathematics, Physics, Astronomy, Engineering and Philosophy, his works have had a great impact all over the world. Poincaré acquired in his lifetime such a reputation that, both nationally and internationally, his life and career were made the object of various articles in the daily papers not only in France, but also in the USA. Some of his philosophical concepts have even caused sharp controversies in the Press (as we will discover in this book).This work presents an original portrait of Henri Poincaré based on various press cuttings from The New York Times, The San Francisco Sunday Call, The Times, The Sun, The Washington Post that chronicled unknown anecdotes of his life (for example, his first name was actually not Henri, but Henry; he obtained his high school diploma in sciences with a zero in mathematics, etc.). Such an approach enables the discovering of many forgotten or unknown aspects of his scientific and philosophical works as well as his important role in the public sphere.
