“O livro Dimensões do Pensamento traz a público um conjunto de artigos transdisciplinares, nos quais os autores têm como escopo refletir sobre algumas situações pretéritas sobre as quais buscam compreender o passado como alternativa para melhor apreender o presente e assim prospectar um futuro mais humano. Vemos também um desejo de olhar a atualidade sob várias nuances, cujas perspectivas configuram um esforço para compreender os tempos em que vivemos, fato que dificulta bastante o trabalho do pesquisador que investiga o próprio momento histórico em que vive, o qual precisa atentar-se arduamente para não incorrer no erro de deixar que suas subjetividades sobreponham a objetividade necessária à pesquisa. É por valorizarmos o empenho dos pesquisadores e acreditarmos na capacidade de transformação na vida dos sujeitos advindos do ensino, da pesquisa e da extensão que recomendamos a leitura da obra em questão”.

The authors examine from different perspectives some of the most challenging themes in Mesopotamian religion such as gender switch of deities and changes of the status, roles and functions of goddesses. Julia M. Asher-Greve and Goodnick Westenholz incorporate recent scholarship from various disciplines into their analysis of textual and visual sources, representations in diverse media, theological strategies, typologies, and the place of image in religion and cult over a span of three millennia. Different types of syncretism (fusion, fission, mutation) resulted in transformation and homogenization of goddesses' roles and functions. The processes of syncretism (a useful heuristic tool for stu...

Thirteen papers on different subjects, focussing on writings and inscriptions in medieval art, explore the faculty of writing to create and determine spaces and to generate the sacred by the display of holy scripture. The subjects range from book illumination over wall painting, mosaics, sculpture, and church interiors to inscriptions on portals and façades.
Writing and running software is now as much a part of science as telescopes and test tubes, but most researchers are never taught how to do either well. As a result, it takes them longer to accomplish simple tasks than it should, and it is harder for them to share their work with others than it needs to be. This book introduces the concepts, tools, and skills that researchers need to get more done in less time and with less pain. Based on the practical experiences of its authors, who collectively have spent several decades teaching software skills to scientists, it covers everything graduate-level researchers need to automate their workflows, collaborate with colleagues, ensure that their re...

Is there a counter-imperial message beneath the surface of the text in Paul? Christoph Heilig analyzes the letters of the apostle and concludes that the hypothesis that we can identify critical "echoes" of the Roman Empire in Paul's letters needs to be modified for it to be maintained.
