God as Love
Nineteenth- and twentieth-century Russian religious intellectuals devoted a great deal of attention to the concept of agape, or Divine Love, arguing that the Christian church is a reflection of the triune, self-sacrificing God and his love for all of creation. On account of their deliberations, these intellectuals played a key role in mediating between the Orthodox Church and modern society. Their quest for dialogue between the 'mystery of the sacred' and the 'ordinary of everyday life' remains relevant for Western societies today. In God as Love Johannes Oravecz presents a comprehensive summation of twenty-five prominent Russian religious thinkers and their thought on the concept of agape, showing in detail how they broke new ground in their various affirmations of the truth that God is love. No other book in any language treats this topic with such breadth and depth.
Geist & Leben 3/2018
Das "Sommer-Heft" 3|2018 von GEIST & LEBEN rückt die Themen Mystik und Gebet erneut in den Fokus. Während Christiana Reemts einen Blick auf das Psalmengebet der frühen Christen wirft, spricht das Arbeitergebet von Michel de Certeau eindrücklich über die beengenden Verhältnisse der Industrialisierung. Siegfried Ringler zeichnet die spannende Biografie der mittelalterlichen Mystikerin und Begine Gertrud von Ortenberg nach. An der Schwelle zur Neuzeit reflektiert Cusanus in "De visione dei" über die visio beatifica, die beseligende Schau Gottes. Ihrem Potential für die heutige Theologie und Pastoralpyschologie ist Heribert Wahl auf der Spur. Franz Meures votiert dafür, die aktuellen ki...
Faith and Science in Russian Religious Thought
Faith and Science in Russian Religious Thought provides a comprehensive analysis of the relationship between science and faith in Russian religious thought. Teresa Obolevitch offers a synthetic approach on the development of the problem throughout the whole history of Russian thought, starting from the medieval period and arriving in contemporary times. She considers the relationship between science and religion in the eighteenth century, the so-called academic philosophy of the 19th and 20th century, the thought of Peter Chaadaev, the Slavophiles, and in the most influential literature figures, such as Fedor Dostoevsky and Lev Tolstoy. The volume also analyses two channels of the formation ...
Geist & Leben 4/2018
Am 09. November jähren sich die entsetzlichen Ereignisse der Reichspogromnacht zum achtzigsten Mal. Damit sich die Geschichte nicht wiederholt und die Namen der vielen Opfer des Nazi-Regimes in Vergessenheit geraten, kommt der Erinnerungskultur eine kaum überschätzbare Bedeutung zu. In einem tief berührenden Beitrag spricht Raymond Pelly in Heft 4 über seine intensiven Erfahrungen als Pilger an den "unheiligen Orten" der Arbeits- und Todeslager. Stephan Philipp ist den Stolpersteinen in Westberlin auf der Spur und fragt nach den dahinterliegenden Schicksalen. Auch das "Herbstheft" steht wieder im Zeichen der ignatianischen Spiritualität: So führt Antonio Allende 6 Regeln ignatianische...
Affect Dynamics
This book features cutting edge research on the theory and measurement of affect dynamics from the leading experts in this emerging field. Authors will discuss how affect dynamics are instantiated across neural, psychological and behavioral levels of processing and provide state of the art analytical and computational techniques for assessing temporal changes in affective experiences. In the section on Within-episode Affect Dynamics, the authors discuss how single emotional episodes may unfold including the duration of affective responses, the dynamics of regulating those affective responses and how these are instantiated in the brain. In the section on Between-episode Affect Dynamics, the a...
Unfading Light
With its scholarly discussions of myth, German idealist philosophy, negative theology, and mysticism, shot through with reflections on personal religious experiences, Unfading Light documents what a life in Orthodoxy came to mean for Sergius Bulgakov on the tumultuous eve of the 1917 October Revolution. Written in the final decade of the Russian Silver Age, the book is a typical product of that era of experimentation in all fields of culture and life. Bulgakov referred to the book as miscellanies, a patchwork of chapters articulating in symphonic form the ideas and personal experiences that he and his entire generation struggled to comprehend. Readers may be reminded of St. Augustine's Confessions and City of God as they follow Bulgakov through the challenges and opportunities presented to Orthodoxy by modernity.
Association Models
Offers readers invaluable guidance on handling cross-classified data Broadening the scope of association models beyond the typical sociological and psychological fields, author Raymond S. Wong shows readers how to analyze and comprehend any social science data presented in cross-classified formats. Through a careful exposition of various association models, the text examines the underlying structure of odds-ratios, offering a unified framework for students and researchers in the process. Rich illustrative examples (from data generated by the General Social Survey and other sources) demonstrate why and how association models are a better option than conventional log-linear models or non-parametric specifications. This resource is appropriate for graduate students and researchers across the social and behavioral sciences who need to chose and apply the appropriate statistical tools to decipher and interpret cross-classified data.
Handbook of Linguistic Annotation
This handbook offers a thorough treatment of the science of linguistic annotation. Leaders in the field guide the reader through the process of modeling, creating an annotation language, building a corpus and evaluating it for correctness. Essential reading for both computer scientists and linguistic researchers.Linguistic annotation is an increasingly important activity in the field of computational linguistics because of its critical role in the development of language models for natural language processing applications. Part one of this book covers all phases of the linguistic annotation process, from annotation scheme design and choice of representation format through both the manual and...
Biomedical Natural Language Processing
Biomedical Natural Language Processing is a comprehensive tour through the classic and current work in the field. It discusses all subjects from both a rule-based and a machine learning approach, and also describes each subject from the perspective of both biological science and clinical medicine. The intended audience is readers who already have a background in natural language processing, but a clear introduction makes it accessible to readers from the fields of bioinformatics and computational biology, as well. The book is suitable as a reference, as well as a text for advanced courses in biomedical natural language processing and text mining.
