Abstract

Lou is twaalf, Eva zesendertig, Elsie tweeënveertig, Casper zesenveertig, en Jos eenenzeventig. Vijf mensen, met elkaar verbonden, vertellen hun verhaal. Over onverwacht geluk dat de dingen moeilijk maakt, over geheimen die te groot lijken, over de complexe kunst van het jong zijn, over obstakels die bergen worden, amper te beklimmen, over blijven proberen, tot waar geen mens meer verder kan. In Vele hemels boven de zevende vechten vijf uiteenlopende figuren meer met zichzelf dan met elkaar in dit bestaan dat belachelijk mooi en geweldig lastig is, allemaal tegelijk. Griet Op de Beeck heeft een indrukwekkend debuut geschreven. Met prachtige zinnen en oorspronkelijke observaties creëert ze niet alleen een stel intrigerende personages, maar schetst ze ook een treffend beeld van deze tijd. Vele hemels boven de zevende is een veelstemmige roman, die je onmogelijk vrijblijvend kunt lezen. Geestig, pijnlijk en ontregelend herkenbaar.

Abstract

Cathars have long been regarded as posing the most organised challenge to orthodox Catholicism in the medieval West, even as a "counter-Church" to orthodoxy in southern France and northern Italy. Their beliefs, understood to be inspired by Balkan dualism, are often seen as the most radical among medieval heresies. However, recent work has fiercely challenged this paradigm, arguing instead that "Catharism" was a construct of its persecutors, mis-named and mis-represented by generations of subsequent scholarship, and its supposedly radical views were a fantastical projection of the fears of orthodox commentators.
This volume brings together a wide range of views from some of the most distinguished international scholars in the field, in order to address the debate directly while also opening up new areas for research. Focussing on dualism and anti-materialist beliefs in southern France, Italy and the Balkans, it considers a number of crucial issues. These include: what constitutes popular belief; how (and to what extent) societies of the past were based on the persecution of dissidents; and whether heresy can be seen as an invention of orthodoxy. At the same time, the essays shed new light on some key aspects of the political, cultural, religious and economic relationships between the Balkans and more western regions of Europe in the Middle Ages.

Abstract

We're all getting older from the moment we're born. Ageing is a fundamental and ubiquitous aspect of life. Yet in ethics, not much work is done on the questions surrounding ageing: how do diachronic features of ageing and the lifespan contribute to the overall value of life? How do time, change, and mortality impact on questions of morality and the good life? And how ought societies to respond to issues of social justice and the good, balancing the interests of generations and age cohorts? In this Cambridge Handbook, the first book-length attempt to stake this terrain, leading moral philosophers from a range of sub-fields and regions set out their approaches to the conceptual and ethical understanding of ageing. The volume makes an important contribution to significant debates about the implications of ageing for individual well-being, social policy and social justice.
