The second volume of riveting memoirs from Hans Kung, the leading - and controversial - theologian. Hans Küng has been a major influence on post-war Christianity by any reckoning. A peritus for the second Vatican council, he then went on to publish a number of controversial books, including Infallible? An Enquiry (1971), which enraged the Vatican and caused him to lose the ecclesiastical approval of his teaching at the university of Tübingen. However, he remains a respected priest in good standing with his bishop. Throughout all the upheavals that the Catholic Church has undergone in recent decades, Küng has been an outspoken observer, turning himself from enfant terrible to béte noire. ...
The moral theology of Hans G. Ulrich is presented here in English for the first time. These collected essays represent the culmination of a lifetime of reflection on Christian living from this German theologian in conversation with Luther, Bonhoeffer, and contemporary philosophers and theologians. Ulrich's ethics affirm the lively presence of the living work of God in orienting the daily life of Christians. This presence enables members of the Church to live as creatures trusting in God's promises, bearing witness in political and economic spheres, and trusting in life as a gift in response to bioethical issues. Ulrich's fresh take on living out of the promise of God yields further guidance on issues in international relations, economics, parenting, disability, and more.
Johannes wird oft als ein geistliches Evangelium wahrgenommen, in dem es vor allem um das Heil der Gläubigen gehe – Schöpfung sei ein Randthema. Die vorliegende Studie durchbricht solche anthropozentrischen Denkmuster, indem sie die Schöpfung als Ganzes einschließlich der nicht-menschlichen Schöpfung untersucht. Durch die Anwendung eines umfassenden Verständnisses kommt nicht nur die Schöpfung am Anfang der Welt in den Blick, sondern auch das kontinuierliche Schöpferwirken sowie die Neuschöpfung. Zacharias Shoukry bringt die Schöpfungsurheberschaft Jesu sowie die Frage nach seiner relativen Präexistenz in den Diskurs ein. Jesus, der von oben kommt, steht im Kontrast zu den Mensc...
Der vorliegende Band 11 der Trauregister-Reihe fasst 3627 Trau-Einträge aus den evangelischen Kirchenbüchern des ehemaligen Amtes Hersfeld (Stadt Bad Hersfeld mit Landgemeinden von 1800 bis 1830, Umlandgemeinden z.T. von 1624 bis 1830) in Hessen zusammen und bietet damit Familienforschern eine ideale Basis, die Herkunft einer Familie überregional zu erforschen. Aus dem Amt Hersfeld ist die heutige Stadt Bad Hersfeld und einige Gemeinden im Umland entstanden. Die Stadt Bad Hersfeld ist Kreisstadt des Landkreises Hersfeld Rotenburg im Nordosten von Hessen liegt ca. 70 km Südlich der der nordhessischen Metropole Kassel.

This volume constitutes the proceedings of the 16th International Conference on Intelligent Tutoring Systems, ITS 2020, held in Athens, Greece, in June 2020. The 23 full papers and 31 short papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 85 submissions. They reflect a variety of new techniques, including multimodal affective computing, explainable AI, mixed-compensation multidimensional item response, ensemble deep learning, cohesion network analysis, spiral of silence, conversational agent, semantic web, computer-supported collaborative learning, and social network analysis.
As Dr Needham's immense undertaking gathers momentum it has been found necessary to subdivide volumes into parts, each to be bound and published separately. The first part of Volume 4, already published, deals with the physical sciences; the second with the diverse applications of physics in the many branches of mechanical engineering; and the third will deal with civil and hydraulic engineering and nautical technology. With this part of Volume 4, then, we come to the application by the Chinese of physical principles in the control of forces and in the use of power; we cross the frontier separating tools from the machine. We have already noticed that the ancient Chinese concept of chhi (somewhat similar to the pneuma of the Greeks) asserted itself prominently in acoustics; but we discover here that the Chinese tendency to think pneumatically was also responsible for a whole range of brilliant technological achievements, for example, the double-acting piston-bellows, the rotary winnowing-fan, and the water-powered metallurgical blowing-machine (ancestor of the steam-engine); as well as for some extraordinary insights and predictions in aeronautics.
