Axiome der Klassischen Mechanik
Die axiomatisierte Darstellung einer mathematischen Theorie gilt traditionell als ein Ideal der Wissenschaftlichkeit. Euklids 'Elemente' und Newtons 'Mathematische Prinzipien der Naturphilosophie' werden oft als epochale Werke der Axiomatik genannt. Von vorerst unbewiesenen Prinzipien oder Axiomen, die in materieller wie auch formaler Hinsicht tragende Säulen des jeweiligen Wissensgebäudes bilden, werden weitere Gesetze und Theoreme über logische Beziehungen und sachbezogene Zusatzannahmen gefolgert. Man gewinnt den Eindruck, die ganze Theorie im Blick zu haben, ohne dabei das einzelne Phänomen zu verlieren. Heute hat die axiomatisierte Darstellung einer wissenschaftlichen Theorie allerd...
Logik in den Wissenschaften
Zwar gibt es eine Vielzahl an Einführungen in die formale Logik und der Besuch entsprechender Grundkurse ist für die Studierenden unterschiedlichster Fächer nicht selten verpflichtend; wie man diese Logik allerdings jenseits der philosophischen Fächer anwenden kann, bleibt in der Regel unbeantwortet. Diese bislang zu kurz gekommene interdisziplinäre Brückenfunktion der formalen Logik erfüllt der vorliegende Band. Fachlich ausgewiesene Wissenschaftler der jeweiligen Disziplinen präsentieren und reflektieren an einem Beispiel Anwendungen der formalen Logik in ihrem Fachbereich. Im Mittelpunkt stehen folgende Fragen: Wie wird in der jeweiligen Einzelwissenschaft formale Logik zur Modell...
The Book of the Twelve
In the last two decades, research on the Book of the Twelve has shown that this corpus is not just a collection of twelve prophetic books. It is rather a coherent work with a common history of formation and, based upon this, with an overall message and intention. The individual books of the Book of the Twelve are thus part of a larger whole in which they can be interpreted in a fruitful manner. The volume The Book of the Twelve: Composition, Reception, and Interpretation features 30 articles, written by renowned scholars, that explore different aspects regarding the formation, interpretation, and reception of the Book of the Twelve as a literary unity.
Poetry, Catastrophe, and Hope in the Vision of Isaiah
The book of Isaiah is one of the longest and strangest books of the Hebrew Bible, composed over several centuries and traversing the catastrophe that befell the two kingdoms of Israel and Judah in the 8th and 6th centuries BCE. Francis Landy's book tells the story of the poetic response to catastrophe, and the hope for a new and perfect world on the other side. The study traces two parallel developments: the displacement of the Davidic promise onto the Persian Empire, Israel, and the prophet himself; and the transition from exclusively male images of the deity to the matching of male and female prototypes, whereby YHWH takes the place of the warrior goddess. Utopia, Catastrophe, and Poetry i...
The Oxford Handbook of the Bible and Ecology
Environmental issues are an ever-increasing focus of public discourse and have proved concerning to religious groups as well as society more widely. Among biblical scholars, criticism of the Judeo-Christian tradition for its part in the worsening crisis has led to a small but growing field of study on ecology and the Bible. This volume in the Oxford Handbook series makes a significant contribution to this burgeoning interest in ecological hermeneutics, incorporating the best of international scholarship on ecology and the Bible. The Handbook comprises 30 individual essays on a wide range of relevant topics by established and emerging scholars. Arranged in four sections, the volume begins wit...
The Book of the Twelve
This book provides a concise guide to the group of biblical books commonly called "The Book of the Twelve Prophets" or simply "The Twelve" (also know as "the Minor Prophets"). In the past twenty years, scholars have explored how reading this set of books as a unified "Book of the Twelve" creates new avenues for understanding and depth. This Cascade Companion introduces the key questions, themes, and topics related to the Twelve in an accessible way. Starting with a discussion of why scholars call these books "The Twelve," the book explores the major themes that orient the Twelve. The book addresses recent topics impacting the Twelve, including the relationship between wisdom literature and the Twelve, the rise of linguistic and literary approaches, and the impact of editorial theories in the study of the Twelve. As such, this book allows readers to learn what gives the Twelve its unique shape and flavor.
The Books of Joel, Obadiah, and Jonah
Where is the line between God’s mercy and judgment? In the latest volume of the New International Commentary on the Old Testament, James D. Nogalski offers a new translation of and commentary on several of the Minor Prophets—the Books of Joel, Obadiah, and Jonah—that grapple with this theme in radically different ways. This volume includes a robust introduction for each book, delineating its textual transmission, historical context, literary form, and major themes. The introduction also discusses the role of each book within the collection of the Twelve (Minor) Prophets. The commentaries proper explain the texts verse by verse, illuminating each book’s structure and canonical significance, yet always with an eye toward pastoral application. Academically rigorous and accessibly written, The Books of Joel, Obadiah, and Jonah is an invaluable resource for scholars, students, and pastors.
