The study analyzes four macro-areas of Walter Mosterts theology of justification in dialogue with alternative approaches as a source of relevant theological insights. Mostert avoids both subjectivism and objectivism, understanding theology as the soteriological answer to sin as the usurpation of Gods salvific prerogative. Justification is Gods saving act, received in faith as ones being-in-Christ. It establishes an anthropology in which the human being is defined not by personal deeds but by the gifted Gospel. Justification is thus distinct from ideological thinking and its theory-praxis model. It founds the Church and serves as the basis for ecumenical consensus. Despite certain one-sided aspects, Mosterts theology allows for a clear articulation of the Gospel. [Walter Mosterts Gedanken zur Rechtfertigung. Argumente fur eine neue Perspektive in der christlichen Theologie] Die Studie analysiert vier Makrobereiche von Walter Mosterts Rechtfertigungstheologie im Dialog mit alternativen Ansatzen als Quelle aktueller theologischer Impulse. Mostert meidet Subjektivismus und Objektivismus und versteht Theologie als die soteriologische Antwort auf die Sunde als Anmaung des gottlichen Heilsprarogativs. Rechtfertigung ist Gottes Heilshandeln, das im Glauben als Sein-in-Christus empfangen wird. Sie begrundet eine Anthropologie, in der der Mensch durch das geschenkte Evangelium, nicht durch das eigene Tun bestimmt ist. Rechtfertigung unterscheidet sich daher vom Theorie-Praxis-Modell ideologischen Denkens. Sie grundet die Kirche und ist die Basis fur okumenischen Konsens. Trotz aller Einseitigkeit ermoglicht Mosterts Theologie eine klare Profilierung des Evangeliums.

Benedetto Neola explores how late antique Neoplatonists, from Iamblichus in the third-fourth century to Damascius in the fifth-sixth, reimagined what it meant to be a true philosopher. For them, the philosopher was not simply a thinker or tireless talker, but a divine soul sent by the gods to rescue humanity from the material world. Figures like Pythagoras, Socrates, and Plato are portrayed as untouched by the charms of the sensible realm. Always connected to the divine, they are ritual practitioners whose sacred mission is carried out not through temple rites, but through speech itself understood as the highest offering to the gods. These divinely inspired words, spoken in a state of possession and revealing truths about the divine, are the noblest form of ritual: an act that unites the philosopher with the gods and brings salvation to others. Combining philosophy, theology, and ritual, the author uncovers a forgotten dimension of ancient thought in which words save souls.

The Catholic restoration in England (1553-1558), led by Queen Mary Tudor and Cardinal Reginald Pole, has largely been regarded as violent and reactionary. However, recent studies suggest it involved constructive elements, particularly in clerical education, emphasising preaching over persecution. Pole, who was granted significant ecclesiastical authority, used his extensive network to advance reforms and appointed like-minded scholars to universities and church positions. This doctoral thesis examines the social network behind these reforms, using historical network analysis to understand how relationships shaped educational policies under Pole, Stephen Gardiner, and Mary Tudor.

This volume provides a comparative re-evaluation of central aspects of Kants and Cassirers philosophical systems. Instead of seeing Cassirer merely as the historian of Kants philosophy, or as eclectically introducing Kantian themes to his own philosophy of culture, the contributions collected in this volume advance a mutually illuminating account of Kant and Cassirer. This volume aims to foster philosophical discourse at a number of yet unexplored hermeneutic frontiers: from the status and the consistency of our cognitive activities to their relationship with the positive sciences, from the nature and value of moral agency to the political and institutional challenges of the contemporary world, and from the dialectic between knowledge and morality to the need of a comprehensive perspective on the whole of human practices. The research interests articulated in these essays thus revolve around three main axes. The first is devoted to Kants legacy and its presence and role in Cassirers philosophy; the second focuses on Cassirers own interpretation, appropriation and development of Kants critique of reason; the third consists in a philosophical confrontation between Kant and Cassirer connected by the idea that our reason shapes the world we live in, and that this formation process is premised on a moral standpoint.

The debate in Europe centers on labor market development, shared responsibility for demographic changes, and preparing for their impact. Building a lifelong learning system is essential from this perspective. Education is key to integration across Europe, fostering trust and cooperation. The EU is founded on values fundamental to education and culture, supporting programs that promote shared EU ideals. Educational efforts highlight universalism and humanism as core principles of civilization and recognize the importance of international organizations in ensuring inclusive education. Enhancing civic education can improve understanding of democratic processes and encourage active societal participation. Implementing modern education policies requires changes in both teaching methods and content, including adopting innovative techniques and developing digital skills.

Social and Collaborative Art refers to a socially engaged artistic practice through the involvement, in the process of its realisation, collaborating directly or indirectly in its production or discussion, of other agents besides the artist(s), namely a community or a specific group of individuals. It is often a transdisciplinary and inclusive practice, challenging the concepts of art and authorship, that dilutes epistemological, social, political, and cultural boundaries by bringing together different artistic fields plastic, visual, projecting or performative , theory and practice, production and reception. In doing so, more than any other artistic manifestation, it gives the Humanities an operability that highlights art as a form of research and knowledge.

Aunque muchos católicos están familiarizados con los cuatro Evangelios y otros escritos del Nuevo Testamento, para la mayoría, leer el Antiguo Testamento es como adentrarse en un territorio desconocido: ¿quien escribio sus cuarenta y seis libros? ¿Cuando? ¿Por que? ¿Que debemos pensar de sus leyes, relatos, historias y profecias? ¿Debe leerse el Antiguo Testamento por si mismo o a la luz del Nuevo Testamento? John Bergsma y Brant Pitre ofrecen respuestas claras y profundas a estas preguntas sobre cada libro del Antiguo Testamento. No solo los examinan desde una perspectiva historica y cultural, sino que tambien los interpretan teologicamente basandose en el Nuevo Testamento y en la fe de la Iglesia catolica. Este volumen, unico entre las introducciones, situa el Antiguo Testamento en su contexto liturgico y muestra como se emplean sus pasajes en el Leccionario actual de la misa.Una introduccion exhaustiva y actualizada al Antiguo Testamento, al tiempo que accesible para los no expertos, que puede servir como libro de texto ideal para cursos de estudios biblicos. Su enfoque, junto con los mapas, las ilustraciones y otros materiales de referencia, lo convierten en un recurso valioso para seminaristas, sacerdotes, estudiosos de las Sagradas Escrituras, teologos y catequistas, asi como para cualquiera que desee profundizar en la comprension de la Biblia.

Junto con Sabiduría, el libro de Ben Sira constituye el punto final de la tradición literaria del Antiguo Testamento. A pesar de su carácter deuterocanónico, ha dejado una profunda huella en la teologia y la piedad tanto cristianas como judias. Los manuscritos hebreos de Ben Sira gozan ya de una añeja y solida historia, aunque esta empezo relativamente hace poco tiempo, a finales del siglo XIX. Hasta esas fechas, el estudioso de la Biblia solo contaba con el testimonio de las versiones antiguas. Sin embargo, existian noticias y sospechas de un original hebreo, como se deduce del prologo del libro y de las citas de algunas obras rabinicas. La obra de Ben Sira sorprende y atrae por su equilibrada sensatez y la perspicacia de su autor, sus dotes de analista de las relaciones sociales, su capacidad de penetracion en los entresijos del alma humana y, sobre todo, su profundo espiritu religioso. Sus momentaneos arranques nacionalistas y su dureza al censurar determinados tipos de conducta humana no empañan del todo el conjunto de su propuesta educativa, que va dirigida al ser humano, en sus dimensiones individual y social.

Britain is no longer the great power it once was. Caught between an unmoored America and a fractured Europe, it confronts rising authoritarian challenges from China and Russia, while its domestic debates drift into abstract moralising. Lacking a coherent vision for the future, the country risks sliding further into managed decline, its global relevance steadily eroding.Yet such a trajectory is not inevitable. In this clear-eyed assessment of Britains economic, ideological and strategic vulnerabilities, Azeem Ibrahim identifies the essential building blocks of renewal. He outlines a programme of reforms that will allow a genuinely independent Britain to capitalise on its core strengths. After all, as a lean and specialised nuclear power with one of the worlds most sophisticated intelligence networks, as well as world-class universities and a cultural reach second only to the US, the UK can still shape global affairs.A Greater Britain argues that a clear strategic anchor and bold leadership are needed if the UK is to convert its advantages into real influence. By formulating a pioneering Knowledge Power Doctrine, the book offers a global strategy for a once powerful nation, providing nothing short of a roadmap back to British greatness.
