In Städten treten Gegensätze, etwa von Fortschrittlichkeit und Retrospektivität, deutlich hervor - nicht erst heute, sondern schon im 15. Jahrhundert. Vier Kapitel vereinen 18 Perspektiven auf komplexe Phänomene: "Stifter, Stadt und Studium" fokussiert auf Identitätskonstruktion und kulturelle Identitätsvernichtung. "Die Entdeckung der Welt" widmet sich dem Ineinandergreifen von bildender Kunst und "Scientia nova", das Kapitel "Spielarten des Neuen" der Rezeption der "ars nova" aus den Niederlanden, "Import - Export - Migration" dem Austausch zwischen Wien und anderen Regionen bis hin nach Siebenbürgen.

All people derive their identities from the groups and social categories to which they belong in society, the roles they play out, and their personal characteristics they claim. Introduced more than fifty years ago, identity theory has become a central theoretical perspective in sociological social psychology. Now in a greatly expanded second edition, Identity Theory attempts to explain identities, their processes of operation, and their sources in and consequences for interaction and society. This book describes the origins of identity theory, its development, the research that supports it, and its future direction. It covers the central roles of meaning and resources in human interaction and purpose. It provides a detailed analysis of the nature and operation of identities. A central aspect of identities, identity verification, is discussed in terms of how it works, and its consequences for individuals. In addition, the book discusses the different bases of identities, and the multiple identities that individuals hold from their multiple positions in society. It also covers the way identities offer both stability and change to individuals. Coauthored by the originators of the theory, this book accessibly presents decades of research in a single volume, making the full range of this powerful theory understandable to readers at all levels.

A la fois promesse mal comprise de la modernité, via l'individualisation pour tous, et créneau commercial le plus recherché, le sur-mesure, un peu comme le sans-contact, est devenue une nouvelle norme de notre société étonnamment peu interrogée dans ses effets. Logique, au sein d'une France devenue celle des consommateurs bien plus que celle des producteurs, le client est roi car de lui dépend le PIB du pays.Mais, si elle peut être valorisante et réconfortante car en écho à notre individualité fantasmée, cette mentalité du "comme je veux" , "où je veux" , éduquée dès la plus tendre enfance, semble avoir largement déteint sur l'ensemble de nos comportements. Initiée par la consommation, elle imprègne aujourd'hui le travail comme l'amour, la vie familiale, la santé, les croyances, la culture, voir la réalité qu'on tente de tordre pour qu'elle entre dans notre modèle.De fait, si l'on devait auparavant s'adapter au monde et aux individus qui le peuple, aujourd'hui, tout un chacun fini par exiger de l'autre et du monde qu'il s'adapte à lui-même, à ses envies, à sa sensibilité et son idéologie. Un créneau qui rend dès lors impossible toute idée de commun et génère l'apparition de plusieurs postures existentielles oscillant entre apathie, tyrannie, victimisation et uniformisation.

One of the central and novel convictions of the early Christian movement compared to the existing Greco-Roman beliefs was the dogma of bodily resurrection. The Stoics esteemed temperance, disciplining the body to curb the flesh; the Epicureans embraced pleasure, indulging their worldly desires. However, Paul’s letters to the Corinthians convey a countercultural idea: what you do with your body matters because it will still be with you in the resurrection. But when many contemporary Christians consider the new creation, they imagine the new Jerusalem filled with unblemished people living with normalized and idealized resurrected bodies: "healing" is assumed as a fundamental reality of the resurrection.In Perfect in Weakness, Maja I. Whitaker develops the proposition that people with disabilities might retain their diverse embodiment in the new creation—that the resurrected body might still be "disabled." This theological claim is based in the accounts of the resurrected Christ appearing with the stigmata, and it is supported by the intuitions of those persons with disabilities who consider that their unique embodiment is identity-forming and entirely unproblematic in itself. If the human person is an essentially embodied metaphysical unity, then there may be features of our particular bodies that must be continuous through the transformation of resurrection for personal identity to be secured. However, this "retention view" has faced conceptual objections on the grounds of theological anthropology, continuity of identity, and biblical conceptions of flourishing human life. Whitaker confronts these objections, integrating philosophical, biblical, and theological methodologies in order to present a reasonable and coherent defense of the retention view.The possibility of persons with diverse embodiment enjoying fullness of life in the new creation can expose negative attitudes towards disability and unlock a critique of ableist bias in Christian thought and practice in the modern church. Moreover, it can function as an eschatological parable to subvert the powers of this age that idolize success, mastery, and autonomy to the neglect of theologies of weakness, limitation, and dependency. In this way, Perfect in Weakness is important not only in the realm of disability studies but also in the wider Christian community that is mired within the cultural ideologies of our time.
