Cuando el mundo que nos parecía seguro comienza a desmoronarse, es hora de revisitar la experiencia fundacional del misterio amoroso de lo real, como manantial místico y ético explorado por las religiones de la humanidad y el cristianismo en particular, para beber de esa fuente de vida, dignidad, sentido y esperanza. Este número de Concilium dedicado a la providencia divina desea contribuir a la reflexión y al debate teológicos contemporáneos sobre esa presencia-ausencia amorosa que animó a Jesús de Nazaret y a su comunidad mesiánica a confiar en el amor incondicional del Abba "que hace salir su sol sobre buenos y malos, que hace llover sobre justos y pecadores" (Mt 5,45).
Não há homem e mulher: o resgate das mulheres no cristianismo de Paulo (Gl 3,28C) é uma obra que conta a história das mulheres no período dos cristianismos originários e em Paulo, além de mostrar os problemas enfrentado por elas perante a má interpretação das Leis judaicas, do puro e do impuro dos judeus, do sistema patriarcalista e da circuncisão. Os problemas enfrentado por elas foram denunciados por Paulo em Gálatas 3,28c, através de um canto bem mais antigo do que ele. Esse hino era realizado durante os ritos batismais e foi resgatado por Paulo a fim de denunciar a discriminação vivida pelas mulheres naquele período da antiguidade bíblica. Apesar de toda a luta em favor das mulheres, o cristianismo viu surgir, ao longo dos tempos, novas formas de discriminação social nascendo a cada dia, como no caso dos negros, dos pobres e dos homossexuais. Os atores mudam, mas o contexto continua sendo o mesmo.

The best-selling English translation of the mysterious and cosmic Greek poetry known as the Orphic Hymns. At the very beginnings of the Archaic Age, the great singer Orpheus taught a new religion that centered around the immortality of the human soul and its journey after death. He felt that achieving purity by avoiding meat and refraining from committing harm further promoted the pursuit of a peaceful life. Elements of the worship of Dionysus, such as shape-shifting and ritualistic ecstasy, were fused with Orphic beliefs to produce a powerful and illuminating new religion that found expression in the mystery cults. Practitioners of this new religion composed a great body of poetry, much of ...
This provocative volume presents a glimpse of social philosopher Karl Marx's views on the subject of suicide.
Feminist scholarship is sometimes dismissed as not quite ‘proper’ knowledge – it’s too political or subjective, many argue. But what are the boundaries of ‘proper’ knowledge? Who defines them, and how are they changing? How do feminists negotiate them? And how does this boundary-work affect women’s and gender studies, and its scholars’ and students’ lives? These are the questions tackled by this ground-breaking ethnography of academia inspired by feminist epistemology, Foucault, and science and technology studies. Drawing on data collected over a decade in Portugal and the UK, US and Scandinavia, this title explores different spaces of academic work and sociability, conside...
Exile and migration played a critical role in the diffusion and development of modernism around the globe, yet have long remained largely understudied phenomena within art historiography. Focusing on the intersections of exile, artistic practice and urban space, this volume brings together contributions by international researchers committed to revising the historiography of modern art. It pays particular attention to metropolitan areas that were settled by migrant artists in the first half of the 20th century. These arrival cities developed into hubs of artistic activities and transcultural contact zones where ideas circulated, collaborations emerged, and concepts developed. Taking six majo...
