Jefferson’s Revolutionary Theory and the Reconstruction of Educational Purpose (The Cultural and Social Foundations of Education)
by Kerry T. BurchThis book newly interprets the educational implications of Thomas Jefferson’s revolutionary thought. In an age where American democracy is imperilled and the civic purposes of schooling eviscerated, Burch turns to Jefferson to help bring to life the values and principles that must be recovered in order for Americans to transcend the narrow purposes of education prescribed by today’s neoliberal paradigm. The author argues that critical engagement with the most radical dimensions of Jefferson’s educational philosophy can establish a rational basis upon which to re-establish the civic purposes of public education. Bracketing the defining features of Jefferson's theory throughout each of the chapters, the author illuminates the deficiencies of the dominant educational paradigm, and charts a new path forward for its progressive renewal.
Jehu’s Tribute: What Can Biblical Studies Offer Assyriology? (Explorations in Ancient Near Eastern Civilizations)
by Jeffrey L. Cooley Rannfrid I. Lasine ThelleThe findings of Assyriology have been applied to biblical studies ever since the former emerged as a scholarly discipline in the mid-nineteenth century. Today, the scholarly flow from Assyriology to biblical studies continues, yet rarely are the fruits of biblical scholarship brought to bear on the study of ancient Assyria and Babylon. The present volume aims to reverse this unidirectional trend.Considering that the literature preserved in the Hebrew Bible is the product of a people who had significant contact with both Assyria and Babylonia, then surely the study of the Hebrew Bible has something to offer Assyriology. But what? The contributors approach this question from a variety of disciplinary perspectives, including intellectual history, museology, and religious and political history. The authors also offer broad methodological considerations and more focused, text-based case studies. Written by leading scholars in the fields of Assyriology and Hebrew Bible, Jehu’s Tribute presents a fresh approach to the multifaceted relationship between Assyriology and biblical studies.In addition to the volume editors, the contributors include Céline Debourse, Jessie DeGrado, Eckart Frahm, Shalom E. Holtz, Gina Konstantopoulos, Alan Lenzi, Alice Mandell, Dustin Nash, Beate Pongratz-Leisten, Seth Sanders, Anthony P. SooHoo, SJ, and Abraham Winitzer.

Jenseits der Masken: Ideen und Übungen für ein authentisches und selbstbestimmtes Leben
by Oliver FlorigHerauszufinden, wer Sie eigentlich sind und sein möchten, stellt eine große Herausforderung dar: Dieser Ratgeber unterstützt Sie dabei. Der Wunsch, wirklich man selbst zu sein, zählt zu den großen Sehnsüchten moderner westlicher Menschen. Man selbst zu werden setzt voraus, sich auf die Schliche zu kommen: In welcher Weise vermeide ich es, ich selbst zu sein? Welche Erwartungen anderer und welche inneren Muster steuern mich bisher? Was liegt mir eigentlich am Herzen? Was sind meine Aufgaben im Leben? Um diese Fragen zu beantworten, darf, kann, muss man sich zugleich mit seiner inneren Stimme und der Welt auseinandersetzen. Dabei zeigt sich auch: Man selbst wird man dann, wenn man nicht krampfhaft um sich selbst kreist, sondern ein Leben lebt, das den eigenen Einsichten und Werten entspricht. Aus dem Inhalt: Neue Perspektiven aus Psychologie und Philosophie – Fragen zur Anwendung auf Ihre konkrete Lebenssituation – Fallbeispiele – Übungen und Beobachtungsaufgaben. Über den Autor: Dr. Oliver Florig ist als Therapeut, Coach und Paarberater mit Praxis in Kempten und Heidelberg tätig. Anlass für dieses Buch war eine Frage, die ihm in seiner Praxis immer wieder begegnet, nämlich die Frage, was es heißt, ein authentisches und selbstbestimmtes Leben zu führen.
