Nietzsche and Politicized Identities
Contemporary political struggles often find their origins in conflicts based on race, religion and region, gender and sexuality, or class. Given the need for conceptual resources to meet such challenges, this volume of essays explores the extent to which Friedrich Nietzsche's philosophy can be of use to us in these struggles. In Nietzsche and Politicized Identities, emerging and leading Nietzsche scholars offer fresh insights into various central questions: How do our politicized identities form and develop their legitimacy? What sorts of functions do such identities serve? What political ideals does Nietzsche advocate? What conceptual tools for reanimating liberatory political projects does Nietzsche promote? How might we organize politically to affirm life and acknowledge the tragic as we avoid the pull of nihilism? The essays within this volume engage these questions and offer fresh, at times surprising, answers.

Vindicating the Filioque: The Church Fathers at the Council of Florence
The Catholic doctrine of the Filioque—that the Holy Spirit eternally proceeds from the Father and the Son—has historically been a source of contention between the Western Church and the Eastern Church. While recent efforts to reach ecumenical agreement have claimed to overcome this divide, their proposed solutions not only overlook but overturn the consensus reached by West and East alike at the fifteenth-century Council of Florence, which defined the doctrine and clarified its rootedness in the teaching of the Fathers of the Church. In Vindicating the Filioque, Thomas Crean, O.P., mounts a robust ecumenical defense of the truth of this doctrine and the authority of its Florentine defini...
Apostolikos Thronos: Rival Accounts of Roman Primacy in Eusebius and Athanasius
The nature of Roman primacy and the extent of the teaching and jurisdictional authority of the pope have long been areas of misunderstanding and disagreement between the Catholic Church and the Orthodox Churches of the East. Just as the Petrine office of the Roman pontiff admits of historical unfolding, so, too, do differing theological accounts of this office, and the period of the fourth-century Arian controversy marks a significant stage in the development of both. D. Vincent Twomey’s Apostolikos Thronos exposes two divergent Eastern accounts of Roman primacy in the writings of the rival fourth-century bishops Eusebius of Caesarea and Athanasius of Alexandria. In the first part, Twomey ...
How Christ Saves Souls—with Us: The Mystery of Co-Redemption
There is an important truth too many Christians don’t know: we are called to actively participate in the redemption Christ won for us on the Cross. This is at once simple and complex—how can we be co-redeemers? With a clear and lively style, How Christ Saves Souls—with Us: The Mystery of Co-Redemption calls the everyday Catholic to embrace their role as a partaker in Christ’s redeeming grace. Fr. Michael Giesler uses sound theological and scriptural backing to illustrate, in practical terms, how each of us can truly be another Christ, Christ Himself (ipse Christus), in our words and actions. Jesus shared His redeeming power with His followers from the beginning of the Church, and He ...
