Echoes of Coinherence
This book re-imagines the universe (and the scientific study of it) through the lens of a triune Creator, three persons of irreducible identity in a perichoretic or coinherent communion. It modestly proposes that Trinitarian theology, and especially the coinherent natures of the Son in the incarnation, provides the metaphysic or “theory of everything” that manifests itself in the subject matter of science. The presence of the image of the triune God in humanity and of traces of this God in the non-human creation are discussed, highlighting ontological resonances between God and creation (resonances between the being of God and his creation), such as goodness, immensity-yet-particularity,...
Handbook of Latin American Studies

Compiled by the Hispanic Division of the Library of Congress and annotated by a corps of more than 130 specialists in various disciplines, the Handbook alternates from year to year between social sciences and humanities. The Handbook annotates works on Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean and the Guianas, Spanish South America, and Brazil, as well as materials covering Latin America as a whole. Most of the subsections are preceded by introductory essays that serve as biannual evaluations of the literature and research under way in specialized areas. The Handbook of Latin American Studies is the oldest continuing reference work in the field. Lawrence Boudon became the editor in 2000. The subject categories for Volume 58 are as follows: Electronic Resources for the Humanities Art History (including ethnohistory) Literature (including translations from the Spanish and Portuguese) Philosophy: Latin American Thought Music

Pragmatism in the Americas
In the last ten years, investigators worldwide have focused on the connections between the philosophy of classical figures in American pragmatism (e.g., William James, Charles Peirce, and John Dewey) and the Hispanic world. Pragmatism in the Americas examines the intersection between these two traditions, advancing new and unexplored realms of Western philosophy and uncovering new relationships.The book will prove an invaluable source for philosophers and philosophy students, as well as for scholars from other disciplines (e.g., history, political science, sociology, diversity studies, and gender and race studies) to begin understanding the dynamic relationship in thinking between the two Americas. In addition to documenting the results of a new and thriving area of research, it can also function as a primer to direct and provoke further inquiry.Its essays, from North American, Spanish, and Latin American scholars, fill a void in the humanities and introduce a number of Hispanic pragmatists who have not been included in standard pragmatist texts.
Homenaje a Alain Guy
El filósofo francés Alain Guy (La Rochelle, 1918 - Narbonne, 1998) dedicó por entero su vida al estudio de la filosofía española e hispanoamericana, dándola a conocer no sólo en el extranjero sino también en nuestro país. Enamorado de las cosas de España a las que amaba sincera y desinteresadamente, comenzó estudiando la obra de fray Luis de León y continuó después con la de Vives, Unamuno, Ortega y muchos otros autores hasta llegar a los filósofos de la actualidad. A pesar del horizonte tan amplio de sus intereses, el detenido análisis de los textos le permitió siempre reflejar el perfil intelectual de sus personajes, en una certera síntesis que sitúa rápidamente al lect...
Homenatge a Jaume Bofill i Bofill
Catedràtic de metafísica a la Facultat de Filosofia de la Universitat de Barcelona, Jaume Bofill i Bofill va ser fidel a la tradició que recull les aportacions d’Aristòtil, sant Agustí i sant Tomàs d’Aquino per a la comprensió del món, de l’home i de Déu, tres dels grans problemes que ha de mirar d’explicar tota metafísica a la recerca d’una cosmovisió del tot existent. El magisteri de Bofill, però, no es limita a l’aprofundiment d’aquesta tradició ni a la filosofia en general, sinó que abraça altres disciplines com ara la pedagogia, la literatura i la política. Així ho proven les col•laboracions d’aquesta miscel•lània d’homenatge, a càrrec d’Àngel Castiñeira, Pedro Cerezo Galán, Josep M. Esquirol, Eudaldo Forment, Pere Lluís Font, Fèlix Martí, Josep M. Quintana Cabanas i Francisca Tomar Romero. L’obra es completa amb l’aportació de Roser Soliguer, vídua de Bofill, i un àlbum fotogràfic.
Christianity and Resistance in the 20th Century
How is the Christian supposed to act when his or her government misbehaves? Should one suffer and obey the authority, or should one render resistance; and if so, should it be passive or active; and if active, should it be violent or not? This book will not provide the answer to this question, but it will describe and analyse important persons of the 20th century who were placed in a situation where they did not merely "turn the other cheek", but felt that they had to resist a regime; a decision which had consequences for them all. Thus the book provides insight to a central and current question of Christian and indeed religious thinking.
