Liminal Spaces and Ethical Challenges
This collection moves from COVID to Kairos, engaged with the legacy of Paul Tillich. Liminal spaces reflect ambiguous transitional moments in human consciousness and culture. In early 2020, cultures and states turned inward for protection, exacerbating intertwined health, political, racial justice, and economic crises. Tillich would have understood these overlapping challenges to be heralding a kairotic moment, reflecting simultaneous crises and opportunities. The collected essays reflect on the intersections of COVID and Kairos. Authors engage numerous ethical challenges precipitated by the current Kairos moment, thinking through and with Tillich. Other essays offer reflections on our cultural moment, engaging topics from public health to video games to hate speech. Reflecting on the cultural moment, this collection offers unique insight into the Tillichian legacy for the present and future.

Brokenness and Reconciliation
Too often we see reality in black and white, overlooking nuances that require the discernment of tensions between the brokenness of our world and our desires for reconciliation. Yet the gap between wounding words and actions and the hope for acts of reconciliation can lead to even more violence and despair. The authors of this volume explore these tensions and the valences of ‘brokenness’ and ‘reconciliation’ in Paul Tillich’s thought. Together, they contribute to a richer understanding of the thought of the German American theologian and philosopher, his commitments, and the constructive interpretations his work can induce for us today. Think of the ruptures and efforts of dialogu...
Paul Ricœur, Philosophical Hermeneutics, and the Question of Revelation
The topic of revelation is fundamental to any account of religious experience, playing a special role in the Judeo-Christian tradition where the texts of Scripture are regarded as revealed. Yet, any reflection on the revealed status of a given message or text requires interpretation. Paul Ricœur, one of the most important hermeneutic philosophers of the twentieth century, provides crucial insights on how such interpretation might proceed and what it might mean for texts to be revealed. Edited by Christina M. Gschwandtner, Paul Ricoeur, Philosophical Hermeneutics, and the Question of Revelation brings together major scholars of Ricœur’s work on the topic of revelation, showing both the role it already plays in his work and how his thinking might be taken further. Several contributors trace the development of his thought in regard to the concept of revelation. Others discuss the revelatory dimensions of Ricœur’s hermeneutics of the self, especially for such issues as identity, trauma, and forgiveness. Several contributions also place his work in conversation with that of other seminal thinkers on the topic of revelation, such as Karl Barth and Paul Tillich.
Chile 2019-2020
Podemos hablar de estallido social, pandemia, encuentros entre vivos y muertos, memoria(s), descoincidencia, feminismo(s), ética, bioética, violencia(s) o límites, sin embargo, estas categorías no son inmutables, no tienen un solo tono a lo largo y ancho de la historia y son, ellas mismas, frutos de una época, reflejos de un tiempo y no de otro, y así como pueden buscar verdades o algunas certezas en el acto escritural inmanente a quien escribe, están de igual manera condenadas a extinguirse, a desaparecer, a ser metáfora de lo que fue, no obstante y con la misma potencia y en tanto metáfora, a ser testimonio, herencia, responsabilidad. Este libro se resuelve, al menos eso intenta, en construir un espacio donde la escritura salga del atelier propio del pensador/a para agenciarse en el mundo y resistirlo desde los lugares que nos son propios, que hemos desarrollado a lo largo de carreras académicas y políticas fruto del encuentro con otras y otras que creen en una resistencia imaginativa
Orienting Istanbul
Looking at the globalization, urban regeneration, arts events and cultural spectacles, this book considers a city not until now included in the global city debate. Divided into five parts, each preceded by an editorial introduction, this book is an interdisciplinary study of an iconic city, a city facing conflicting social, political and cultural pressures in its search for a place in Europe and on the world stage in the twenty-first century.
Les enjeux théologiques de la pastorale scolaire
This book addresses school pastoral care and the identity of the Catholic school in francophone Belgium. In a post-modern context, how do we redefine the ultimate goals of pastoral care in schools so as to preserve its relevance in the eyes of our contemporaries who no longer share the same faith? To answer this question, five concepts from Paul Tillich’s work have been drawn upon in order to establish a dialogue with other thinkers of our time.
