Abstract

Explores the fate of pride from Christian theology to the social responsibilities of self-regard and regard for the society as a whole. This work examines how pride, within black communities, becomes a necessary defense against a culture that at once formally rejected it in their religious beliefs but embraced it in their social relations.

Abstract

"Als anthropologische Grundphänomene sind die Hauptlaster unter dem populären Begriff der «Sieben Todsünden» hochaktuell. Stolz, Zorn, Habgier oder Neid betreffen das Sein und Handeln jedes Menschen. Was aber zeichnet ein Hauptlaster im Unterschied zur Emotion oder zur Todsünde aus? Lassen einzelne Hauptlaster wie Stolz oder Zorn nicht auch eine positive Deutung zu? Diesen und weiteren Fragen geht die Arbeit nach. Ihr Ziel ist es, gegen jede moralisierende Engführung ein theologisch-ethisch tragfähiges Verständnis der Hauptlaster zu entwickeln, das die Handlungswirklichkeit des Individuums wahrnimmt und Hauptlaster nicht nur als schematisch gebundene, negative Grundhaltungen begreift, sondern auch als kontextualisierte Begriffe und Selbstentwicklungsaufgaben."

Abstract

The California Lectura Dantis is the long-awaited companion to the three-volume verse translation by Allen Mandelbaum of Dante's Divine Comedy. Mandelbaum's translation, with facing original text and with illustrations by Barry Moser, has been praised by Robert Fagles as "exactly what we have waited for these years, a Dante with clarity, eloquence, terror, and profoundly moving depths," and by the late James Merrill as "lucid and strong . . . with rich orchestration . . . overall sweep and felicity . . . and countless free, brilliant, utterly Dantesque strokes." Charles Simic called the work "a miracle. A lesson in the art of translation and a model (an encyclopedia) for poets. The full range and richness of American English is displayed as perhaps never before. "This collection of commentaries on the first part of the Comedy consists of commissioned essays, one for each canto, by a distinguished group of international scholar-critics. Readers of Dante will find this Inferno volume an enlightening and indispensable guide, the kind of lucid commentary that is truly adapted to the general reader as well as the student and scholar.

Abstract

This book presents the teaching of Evagrius of Pontus (345-399) about eight passionate thoughts (logismoi), i.e. gluttony, impurity, avarice (greed), sadness, anger (wrath), acedia, vanity and pride. The study first reconstructs cosmology, eschatology, anthropology and spiritual teaching of the monk of Pontus in order to show the nature, dynamics and ways of combating against the eight passionate thoughts as proposed by Evagrius. His teaching in this regard became the basis for later Christian teaching on the Seven Deadly Sins and an inspiration in the future for some currents of modern psychology.
