Leib und Körper
Wenn wir uns durch Naturkatastrophen, durch Krankheiten, durch terroristische Anschläge bedroht und verletzlich fühlen, wenn wir an unsere Sterblichkeit denken oder im Gegenteil an das heutzutage Machbare in der Medizin - dann beschäftigen wir uns mit unserer Körper- und Leiblichkeit. Wie kann man diese Phänomene begrifflich fassen, welche Bedeutung haben sie in der Philosophie und Psychologie? In diesem Band zeichnet Klaus Wiegerling das Bild einer Philosophie des Leibes, während sich der Mediziner Joachim Küchenhoff aus einer psychologisch-psychoanalytischen Perspektive mit dem Körpererleben beschäftigt.
Irresistible Signs
Language is now understood as a key component of cultural identity, but discourses on linguistic nationalism are only a few centuries old. In Irresistible Signs, Paola Gambarota investigates the connection between Italian language and national identity over four hundred years, from late-Renaissance linguistic theories to nineteenth-century nationalist myths. Challenging the consensus that linguistic nationalism originated with nineteenth century German philosophers, Irresistible Signs advances a more nuanced theory of how culture and language become inextricably linked through literary and rhetorical elements. Gambarota combines Anglo-American theories of the nation with the most advanced Italian scholarship on language ideology and delves into ideas from Giambattista Vico, Giacomo Leopardi, and Melchiorre Cesarotti. Irresistible Signs also explores how images of national communities are represented within vernaculars, affirming their influence in shaping contemporary models of monolingual nationhood.
Before Belief
First things are spiritually and theologically important. Before Belief explores the precognitive human experience of transcendence, illuminating how such foundational experiences are formative of attachment relationships with people and ultimately with God. The book proposes an implicit learning model rather than rely on Freud’s or Jung’s understanding of the unconscious, with a goal of recovering unconscious spiritual learning. Once discovered and put into language, early learning needs to be tested and integrated into life experience and expressed in committed living. The theories examined and advanced in the work are also carried through in practical case studies that demonstrate the pastoral and clinical salience of understanding and connecting people to those grounding experiences.
Medienethik
Medienethik beschreibt und erklärt neue ethische Probleme. Zunächst werden Grundprobleme der Disziplin dargelegt, dann werden die zentralen medienethischen Positionen von Platon bis zur Theorie der Hypermedien vorgestellt. Schließlich erörtert der Autor Felder neuer medienethischer Fragestellungen, z.B. des Journalismus, des Rechts, der Information und Dokumentation, der Wissenschaft, der Kunstproduktion und -rezeption und der Medienerziehung.
Futures, Visions, and Responsibility
Martin Sand explores the problems of responsibility at the early, visionary stages of technological development. He discusses the increasingly dominant concept of innovation and outlines how narratives about the future are currently used to facilitate technological change, to foster networks, and to raise public awareness for innovations. This set of activities is under increasing scrutiny as a form of “visioneering”. The author discusses intentionality and freedom as important, albeit fuzzy, preconditions for being responsible. He distinguishes being from holding responsible and explores this distinction’s effects on the problem of moral luck. Finally, he develops a virtue ethical framework to discuss visioneers’ and innovators’ responsibilities.
Homeland
"Authors from Germany, Israel and Palestine look at the wide-ranging topic of homeland in the context of their specific history, the social and political situations of their countries, and from their own experience"--P. [2]

Husserl und Cohn
Fragestellung und Lösungsansatz der folgenden Untersuchungen 2 HUSSERL UND COHN Die vorliegende Arbeit vergleicht die Position des neukantianischen Dialektikers Jonas Cohn mit derjenigen des Phänomenologen Edmund Hus serl. Bevor auf die thematischen Zielsetzungen der einzelnen Kapitel einge gangen wird, seien einige Bemerkungen vorausgeschickt, die zeigen sollen, inwiefern einem solchen Vergleich Bedeutung zukommt. Grundsätzlich ist ein Vergleich philosophischer Positionen nur dann durchführbar, wenn in irgend einer Hinsicht eine Gemeinsamkeit vorliegt. Sinnvoll wird ein Vergleich nur dann sein, wenn sich die Relata nicht in je der Beziehung entsprechen und wenn die Gründe für bestehen...
