 History of Biblical Interpretation, Vol. 3: Renaissance, Reformation, Humanism By Henning Graf Reventlow 2010 | 278 Pages | ISBN: 1589834593 | PDF | 3 MB Volume 3 of History of Biblical Interpretation deals with an era Renaissance, Reformation, and humanism characterized by major changes, such as the rediscovery of the writings of antiquity and the newly invented art of printing. These developments created the context for one of the most important periods in the history of biblical interpretation, one that combined both philological insights made possible by the now-accessible ancient texts with new theological impulses and movements. As representative of this period, this volume examines the lives and teaching of Johann Reuchlin, Erasmus, Martin Luther, Philipp Melanchthon, John Calvin, Thomas Müntzer, Hugo Grotius, and a host of other influential exegetes.
 History of Biblical Interpretation, Vol. 2: From Late Antiquity to the End of the Middle Ages By Henning Graf Reventlow, James O. Duke 2009 | 314 Pages | ISBN: 1589834550 | PDF | 3 MB Volume 2 of History of Biblical Interpretation deals with the most extensive period under examination in this four-volume set. It begins in Asia Minor in the late fourth century with Bishop Theodore of Mopsuestia, the founder of a school of interpretation that sought to accentuate the literal meaning of the Bible and thereby stood out from the tradition of antiquity. It ends with another outsider, a thousand years later in England, who by the presuppositions of his thought stood at the end of an era: John Wyclif. In between these two interpreters, this volume presents the history of biblical interpretation from late antiquity until the end of the Middle Ages by examining the lives, works, and interpretive practices of Didymus the Blind, Jerome, Ambrose, Augustine, Gregory the Great, Isidore of Seville, the Venerable Bede, Alcuin, John Scotus Eriugena, Abelard, Rupert of Deutz, Hugo of St. Victor, Joachim of Fiore, Thomas Aquinas, Bonaventure, Rashi, Abraham ibn Ezra, and Nicolas of Lyra.  History of Biblical Interpretation, Vol. 1: From the Old Testament to Origen By Henning Graf Reventlow, Leo G. Perdue 2009 | 244 Pages | ISBN: 1589832027 | PDF | 2 MB From the very beginning, Holy Scripture has always been interpreted Scripture, and its interpretation determined the development and the history of both early Judaism and the first centuries of the Christian church. In this volume, the first of four on the History of Biblical Interpretation, readers will discover how the earliest interpreters of the Bible made the Scriptures come alive for their times-within the contexts and under the influences of Hellenism, Stoicism, and Platonism, as well as the interpretive methods developed in Alexandria. Particular attention is paid to innerbiblical interpretation (within the Hebrew Bible itself and in the New Testament's reading of the Hebrew Bible), as well as to the interpretive practices reflected in the translation of the Septuagint and the writings of Qumran, Philo, the early rabbis, the apostolic fathers Barnabas and Clement, and early Christian leaders such as Justin Martyr, Marcion, Irenaeus, and Origen.
 Historical Epistemology and European Philosophy of Science: Rethinking Critical Rationalism and Transcendentalism by Fabio Minazzi English | EPUB | 2022 | 415 Pages | ISBN : 3030963314 | 0.9 MB This book offers a comprehensive analysis on the evolution of philosophy of science, with a special emphasis on the European tradition of the twentieth century. At first, it shows how the epistemological problem of the objectivity of knowledge and axiomatic knowledge have been previously tackled by transcendentalism, critical rationalism and hermeneutics. In turn, it analyses the axiological dimension of scientific research, moving from traditional model of science and of scientific methods, to the construction of a new image of knowledge that leverages the philosophical tradition of the Milan School. Using this historical-epistemological approach, the author rethinks the Kantian Transcendental, showing how it could be better integrated in the current philosophy of science, to answer important questions such as the relationship between science and history, scientific and social perspectives and philosophy and technology, among others.  Historical Earthquakes, Tsunamis and Archaeology in the Iberian Peninsula English | 2022 | ISBN: 981191978X | 431 Pages | PDF (True) | 28 MB Research on historical earthquakes and tsunamis in the Iberian Peninsula has made great strides in recent years, from diverse scientific fields ranging from geology to archaeology. In addition to the famous earthquake and tsunami of 1755, which intensely affected the peninsula, researchers are conducting a growing number of surveys and case studies on seismic episodes and extreme wave events of possible tsunamigenic origin in Portugal and Spain during the ancient, medieval, and modern eras. However, the development of these studies has suffered due to a certain lack of communication among the different fields of research, which are focused on their own methodologies and interests. The aim of this book is to promote interdisciplinary dialogue by linking the results of the most recent research into historical earthquakes and tsunamis in Iberia from the fields of geology, history and archaeology. The volume, which devotes special attention to tsunamis and to events that occurred in the Iberian Peninsula before 1755, offers synthetic insights, updates, and case studies of maximum interest for knowledge of the historical seismology of Portugal and Spain.

Hierarchy in International Law: The Place of Human Rights By Erika De Wet, Jure Vidmar 2012 | 390 Pages | ISBN: 0199647070 | PDF | 3 MB This book takes an inductive approach to the question of whether there is a hierarchy in international law, with human rights obligations trumping other duties. It assesses the extent to which such a hierarchy can be said to exist through an analysis of the case law of national courts. Each chapter of the book examines domestic case law on an issue where human rights obligations conflict with another international law requirement, to see whether national courts gave precedence to human rights. If this is shown to be the case, it would lend support to the argument that the international legal order is moving toward a vertical legal system, with human rights at its apex.In resolving conflicts between human rights obligations and other areas of international law, the practice of judicial bodies, both domestic and international, is crucial. Judicial practice indicates that norm conflicts typically manifest themselves in situations where human rights obligations are at odds with other international obligations, such as immunities; extradition and refoulement; trade and investment law; and environmental protection. This book sets out and analyses the relevant case law in all of these areas.  Rupert Brown, "Henri Tajfel: Explorer of Identity and Difference " English | ISBN: 1138589810 | 2019 | 286 pages | EPUB | 8 MB This book offers a biographical account of Henri Tajfel, one of the most influential European social psychologists of the twentieth century, offering unique insights into his ground-breaking work in the areas of social perception, social identity and intergroup relations.

Tadashi Kanzawa, "Healing with Kiryo: The Adventures and Teachings of Tadashi Kanzawa" English | 2017 | ISBN: 099619293X | EPUB | pages: 196 | 2.3 mb A journey began to unfold when Tadashi Kanzawa turned heads at the local zoo in Japan. Dozens of animals began falling to the ground and entering a comfortable slumber before the waving of his hand. Kanzawa has since been featured on television shows and news channels throughout the world: at one point even becoming a "Stan Lee's Superhuman" when featured on the History Channel. Traveling through Japan, Russia, and even Africa, Kanzawa writes about his experiences with each of the animals he encounters. However, at the heart of the seemingly miraculous is not magic, but a greater understanding. Tadashi does not claim to be unique and is instead on a greater mission to use what he has learned to help awaken the healing nervous system in others to promote health and eliminate sickness in the aging societies of the modern world. Similar to how he relaxes animals from a distance, Tadashi explains that through the study of Kiryo, one's nervous system can be further vitalized and utilized for the promotion of health. |
