    Im Blick auf die philosophische Grundfrage nach der Struktur und den Formen von Transzendenz und ihrer Verbindung mit Formen der Negativität untersuchen die Studien des Bandes die religionsphilosophische, die philosophisch-theologische und die ästhetische Tragweite dieser Verbindung.Die Analysen führen zu einer vertieften Sicht der systematischen Verklammerung von Transzendenz und Negativität in ihrer Bedeutung für ein vernünftig reflektiertes menschliches Selbst- und Weltverständnis und für die kulturellen Formen einer humanen Welt.Die Beiträge des Bandes thematisieren die Problematik von Transzendenz und Negativität historisch und systematisch unter Einbezug von Kant und Hegel, Benjamin und Adorno, Tillich und Gehlen, Heidegger und Wittgenstein und auf der Basis grundlegender vernunft- und sprachkritischer Analysen. Sie entwickeln eine negative Existenzialpragmatik, in der die sinnkonstitutive Bedeutung von Unverfügbarkeit, Unmöglichkeit, Entzogenheit und Endlichkeit im Zentrum steht

    Philosophy of religion is a highly diversified field. An apt description of it is "zoo." It conjures imagery of a species-wide cacophony of sights and sounds. While some bemoan what this description implies, contributors to this volume appreciate it. There is no reason why a zoo should intimate a den of confusion rather than an important condition of emergence and novelty. "Polyphonic" is the catchall term to capture this sentiment. It signals a way of thinking that resists the desire to siphon insight into manageable packets of information in the name of historicality and finitude. A polyphon

    "Once gods walked among humans, but, friends, we have come too late! The Gods are . . . up there in another world." Thus the poet Holderlin evoked the godlessness in modern life, which, ruled by reason and science, has chased transcendence out of our understanding. Yet is it true that we moderns walk without gods? The Religion of Reality takes to task this common assumption according to which the modern intellect is devoid of appeal to the transcendental. The book first argues that religious feeling persists in the secular western mind; that it has taken refuge in the unlikeliest of camps, indeed with the supposed debunker of religious creed: the rationalist existential ego. The autonomous, individual self is more than just an idea: it is the pillar of modern times--a deity that anchors our morals, politics, and society, and defines what is crucial about human existence. On this score, The Religion of Reality makes two points: first that the philosophic primacy of the self rests on a leap of faith; and second that its religious centrality cannot ultimately satisfy the transcendental thirst that it kindles. The book constructively inquires into the artistic paths that lead away from this anthropocentrism. Art, it is often said, is the religion of the modern secular mind. This study argues that there are good reasons for this status. Taking seriously the age-old connection between art and religion, the book presents just how the spiritual is active in the artistic experience, whether of religious or secular stamp. Artworks are attempts to overcome the limits of expression and knowledge, hence of the human standpoint. The Religion of Reality is not an attempt to resuscitate the religion ofart; rather it is a demonstration of the religious in art

    This historical survey of Quakers in the United States examines their responses to war during World War I, World War II, and the early Cold War, including the Korean and Vietnam conflicts, with particular focus on the social, political, legal, and theological aspects of the Quaker peace testimony. Quakers responded to these conflicts in a variety of ways, ranging from pacifism to support for military action. The boundaries and constraints of Quaker beliefs about violent conflict and the meaning of the peace testimony were determined by debates within the Religious Society of Friends. Isaac Barnes May asserts that Quakers’ reactions to war in the twentieth-century should also be understood as closely related to Quakerism’s relationship to state power. The choice to accommodate or resist government pressure worked alongside internal forces to shape Quakerism in the United States. Ultimately, May argues that there is no single pattern of Quaker response to modern war

    In Walter Benjamin. Presence of Mind, Failure to Comprehend Stéphane Symons offers an innovative reading of the work of German philosopher, essayist and literary critic Walter Benjamin (1892-1940). Oftentimes interpreted as being either of a theological (Jewish-Messianic) or a materialist (neo-Marxist) nature, Benjamin’s writings are here characterized as "neither a-theological, nor immediately theological." Starting from Benjamin’s philosophy of history, his interpretation of the work of Franz Kafka, his study on the German Baroque and his critique of modernity, Walter Benjamin. Presence of Mind, Failure to Comprehend zooms in on the issue of how a belief in the possibility of redemption and an attentiveness [ Aufmerksamkeit] to expressions of an absolute force can endure within a universe that is nevertheless confronted as unfulfilled.

    "In 1763, the young James Boswell left Great Britain for a 'Grand Tour' of the Continent. The tour was a tradition among British and Scottish youths; by visiting the great historical sites, especially those of Roman and Greek antiquity, they would complete the studies they had begun at universities back home. Boswell's tour, however, was different: he was less concerned with the ruins of the past than the thinkers of the present. In particular, he was eager to question the leading figures of the Enlightenment on matters of faith and God--of particular importance to Boswell, who had been raised in the dour and dire atmosphere of the Church of Scotland. In his remarkable conversations with figures like Voltaire, Rousseau, and Hume, we see a man struggling with the claims of reason and needs of faith--a struggle that remains very much our own 250 years later"--Provided by publisher

    Die in der protestantischen Orthodoxie üblichen Karrierestufen von logischer zu theologischer und homiletischer Publizistik führen beim Strassburger lutherischen Theologen Johann Conrad Dannhauer (1603-1666) zu einer mehrfachen werkimmanenten Selbstrezeption, Sie erfolgt entlang dem zeitgenössischen Schlüsselbegriff der Methode. Nach Darlegung mündlich-disputatorischer (1629) und schriftlich-hermeneutischer (1630) Argumentationsmethoden entwickelt Dannhauer in seiner Dialektik (1634) die methodus im Gefolge J. Zabarellas insgesamt zu einer deutlicher apodiktisch-binären Logik. Er lässt sie als Darstellung der Wahl des christlichen Lebenswegs zuerst in der monumentalen Predigtsammlung der Catechismus-Milch (ab 1634) und schließlich in der Gegenüberstellung von lutherische Hodosophie (Wegweisheit, 1653) und katholischer sowie reformierter Hodomorie (Wegtorheit, 1654) wirksam werden. Der Methodenbegriff entwickelt sich so zu einer funktional hybriden Metapher und aus der Prüfung von Argumenten bildet sich jene des auch individuell verstandenen Glaubenswegs.

    This historical survey of Quakers in the United States examines their responses to war during World War I, World War II, and the early Cold War, including the Korean and Vietnam conflicts, with particular focus on the social, political, legal, and theological aspects of the Quaker peace testimony. Quakers responded to these conflicts in a variety of ways, ranging from pacifism to support for military action. The boundaries and constraints of Quaker beliefs about violent conflict and the meaning of the peace testimony were determined by debates within the Religious Society of Friends. Isaac Barnes May asserts that Quakers’ reactions to war in the twentieth-century should also be understood as closely related to Quakerism’s relationship to state power. The choice to accommodate or resist government pressure worked alongside internal forces to shape Quakerism in the United States. Ultimately, May argues that there is no single pattern of Quaker response to modern war

    Im Blick auf die philosophische Grundfrage nach der Struktur und den Formen von Transzendenz und ihrer Verbindung mit Formen der Negativität untersuchen die Studien des Bandes die religionsphilosophische, die philosophisch-theologische und die ästhetische Tragweite dieser Verbindung.Die Analysen führen zu einer vertieften Sicht der systematischen Verklammerung von Transzendenz und Negativität in ihrer Bedeutung für ein vernünftig reflektiertes menschliches Selbst- und Weltverständnis und für die kulturellen Formen einer humanen Welt.Die Beiträge des Bandes thematisieren die Problematik von Transzendenz und Negativität historisch und systematisch unter Einbezug von Kant und Hegel, Benjamin und Adorno, Tillich und Gehlen, Heidegger und Wittgenstein und auf der Basis grundlegender vernunft- und sprachkritischer Analysen. Sie entwickeln eine negative Existenzialpragmatik, in der die sinnkonstitutive Bedeutung von Unverfügbarkeit, Unmöglichkeit, Entzogenheit und Endlichkeit im Zentrum steht
