Abstract:
Abstract Too often the Church dismisses the issue of environmentalism as peripheral, or even alien, to the theological witness of the Bible. Yet the testimony of both Old and New Testaments is that God is invested in the well-being of the earth and its creatures and that humanity bears responsibility as God's steward of the same. This essay investigates this topic as it is communicated through the politeia of ancient Israel, the book of Deuteronomy. The laws of land tenure, agriculture, warfare, wild creatures, and animal husbandry are examined with an eye toward the larger biblical theological message of the Bible. Israel's practice is compared to the norms of its ancient society, and modern parallels are proposed.

Abstract:
The subject of this paper concerns two mechanisms wich help philosophy to circumvente the subject of Holocaust. These are: the philosophy of Heidegger and the neo-marxists tenets of so called Frankfurt School, especially those of Theodor Adorno. While Heidegger is seen in this paper as a resulting prioritization of chtonic symbolism within the the culture of Wiemar Germany, which pushes out the alternative of Ernst Cassirer, the leftist matrix of Adorno's thought is equally seen as a distancing paradigm that abolishes Biblical language, through metaphysics. Paper investigates in some details these mechanisms which aim at abolishing strategic solutions of both Jewish nation and Holocaust - in the package of Zionist ideals. Author sees philosophical fixation on generic trajectoria of man-as-species, as a way of devious handling of the specifics of the Jewish existence.

Full text
Abstract:
This essay does not dwell yet again on traditional issues associated with 2 Maccabees usually discussed through a Jewish lens by dozens of modern scholars. It also does not view the book within its traditional Jewish Hellenistic “Sitz im Leben,” with its self-evident Hellenistic-Jewish reading audience, and its aim is neither to draw a distinction between Greek topoi and biblical motifs nor to discuss its values as an historical text. Rather, the article assumes a pagan reading publicum alongside a Jewish Hellenistic one that, in contradistinction with its Jewish audience, could easily see in 2 Maccabees a standard narrative of a life in a Greek polis under foreign rule, where the “ancestral constitution” plays a significant role, so typical of Greek poleis from the classical period (Delian league) through the Hellenistic era (Macedonian Ptolemaic and Seleucid empires). Reading the book as a Greek would have can give us new insights concerning its socio-political and theological message (independently of its Jewish one). The article reconstructs a politeia as a learned Greek would have done. The book can actually be read as a reflection, or rather a microcosmos of the second century B.C.E. in the Greek sphere during the Hellenistic period. The overall message of the book emerges different than that broadcasted to the Hellenistic Jews, and constitutes a rich mine of theoretical information about the relationship between a subject city and an empire.

Abstract:
Riassunto Nel marzo 1847, Papa Pio IX emanò l’Enciclica „Praedecessores Nostros“, un appello rivolto ai prelati di tutto il mondo affinché organizzassero tre giorni di preghiere e di raccolta di offerte a favore dell’Irlanda colpita dalla carestia. Negli stati italiani, le parole del Papa furono comunicate ai fedeli dai vescovi, che emanarono appelli locali. L’invito era di seguire l’esempio del Papa, il cui contributo personale, risalente ai mesi precedenti, aveva avuto vasta eco sui quotidiani della penisola. Con l’ausilio di un corpus di venticinque appelli scritti dai vescovi sull’impulso dell’Enciclica, l’articolo analizza la riproduzione di un appello umanitario globale negli stati italiani. L’articolo contestualizza la distribuzione della „Praedecessores Nostros“ e degli appelli dei vescovi nella storia politica e culturale nei territori italiani e mappa l’impatto della censura su questa iniziativa caritatevole. In secondo luogo, un’analisi testuale mostra gli elementi narrativi, le risorse metadiscorsive, le parole chiave e i riferimenti biblici e patristici che costituivano la specifica economia morale attraverso la quale i vescovi invitavano a donare a livello locale.

Full text
Abstract:
The broader practice of politics in the world, while detached from the religion, cannot be excluded from the mission of the Missio Dei. In fact, the question of mission and politics has prompted Professor Johannes Reimer to propose missio politica as a missiological framework that puts the mandate of mission and politics in one basket. Following this solid foundation, this paper will propose the use of missio politica as an important missiological framework to analyse the instrumentally useful politics in line with the ultimate goal of Missio Dei. In accordance with the tenets of both missio politica in the name of missio Dei, this paper will then consider the South African ANC's step-aside rule from a biblical perspective, arguing that the accounts of Samuel's leadership in 1 Samuel 8 and the story of Ananias with his wife in Acts 5:1-11 represent a somewhat biblical understanding of the step-aside rule. The ANC's step-aside rule only serves to relativize the need for a missio politica. This paper promises a better understanding of the relationship between mission and politics, such an understanding is a key to uncovering new ways to ensure a meaningful participation of all other sectors of society in achieving the goal of Missio Dei. Missio politica represent what has been missing in the missiological discourse. Therefore, this framework needs to be further explored in order to emphasize the mandate of politics in accordance with the Missio Dei.

Abstract:
Riassunto Le genealogie dei popoli e delle famiglie elaborate nell’Europa di età moderna vengono prevalentemente trattate dagli studiosi in una chiave di storia politica delle idee, con lo scopo di spiegare l’utilità pratica delle opere genealogiche. Tali analisi non mettono in primo piano l’aspetto che è invece al centro di questo saggio: cioè il fatto che i discorsi genealogici sono intessuti di assurdità. Essi mescolano informazioni fededegne, o che tali possono sembrare, a notizie favolose, spesso false, talora ridicole, in una parola „incredibili“. Ciò appare tanto più interessante in quanto questi testi furono composti nei secoli in cui si svilupparono i metodi scientifici applicati alla ricerca storica. Utilizzando suggestioni proposte dall’antrologia culturale, questo saggio propone un approccio in chiave epistemologica che dia conto del significato e della credibilità dei materiali genealogici nel quadro ancora autorevole della Historia Salutis, la visione unitaria della storia dell’umanità come fusione fra eredità classica e tradizione biblica.

Abstract:
Per capire l’importanza dell’Oman come polo culturale e mercantile e, allo stesso tempo, come perno politico e strategico nelle relazioni fra Oriente e Occidente, non si può prescindere dalla sua configurazione geografica e dal habitat umano che caratterizzano questa regione, di cui si accenna brevemente in questo discorso e in quello che segue. Si tratta di peculiarità che hanno avuto un profondo impatto sulla vita e la storia della regione per oltre cinque millenni, facendone un unicum nel contesto culturale dei mari che lo circondano e della stessa Penisola Arabica. Le evidenze archeologiche che stanno venendo alla luce confermano il ruolo dell’Oman come crocevia delle vie di terra e di mare. Per quanto riguarda l’Occidente europeo, fino a circa il secolo diciannovesimo viaggiatori ed esploratori descrivevano l’Oman come uno scatolone di sabbia, sassi e rocce – quanto più di inospitale potesse esserci – sprofondato nella nebbia delle leggende Bibliche della Regina di Saba e delle miniere di Re Salomone. Tuttavia, riesaminando alcuni documenti dagli archivi Italiani, e la ricca letteratura contemporanea in lingue Araba e Persiana (essenzialmente cronache, resoconti di viaggiatori e geografi, e codici commerciali), emerge un’immagine ben diversa, e le fonti, anziché contraddirsi, si integrano perfettamente. Da questi emerge l’importanza della posizione strategica dell’Oman all’imboccatura del Golfo, una posizione che, anziché dar vita a una florida pirateria, evolvette in una oculata politica di intese e alleanze matrimoniali con i paesi gravitanti sui mari circostanti, quali i potentati della fascia costiera Iranica e del Balochistan meridionale, l’India e l’Asia sud-orientale, e le coste orientali dell’Africa. E quando le relazioni fra popolazione delle coste omanite e comunità del hinterland si strutturò in equilibri sociopolitici e complementarità di servizi, allora l’Oman divenne il vero e proprio perno di nuove realtà politiche che diedero vita a veri e propri sistemi di terra e di mare. Nel discorso che segue, si esaminano alcune fasi ben precise della storia Omanita, quali il periodo del dominio Buyide (X secolo CE), il sistema politico costruito dai turchi Selgiuchidi (XIXIII secolo CE), e il regno di Hormuz fino all’arrivo dei Portoghesi (XVI secolo CE). Questi si distinguono per alcune realtà ben puntualizzate dalle fonti letterarie e le evidenze archeologiche, realtà che – si può dire –costituiscono l’identità dell’Oman fino ai giorni attuali. Ad esempio: l’interazione fra le genti del mare e le genti del hinterland, basata su una complementarità di rapporti e “servizi”; l’abilità di alcuni sovrani di evitare di essere coinvolti “a favore” o “contro” in caso di conflitti regionali, e di perseguire una politica basata sulla “inclusività” e non sulla “esclusività”; donde anche, la vitalità e il cosmopolitismo che regnò in determinate corti, e il dinamismo della popolazione che le circondava, fatta di comunità che convivevano attivamente fra loro in un vivace rapporto inter-religioso, inter-culturale e inter-etnico. Una realtà ben viva ancora oggi. Se poi si paragonano questi aspetti con determinate tradizioni del pensiero Islamico, è possibile rapportare queste realtà all’influenza del pensiero Ibadita sulle comunità Omanite, come verrà esplicitato nel discorso che segue.

AZZAN, SIMONA. "'ATOMI DELLE SCRITTURE': IL RUOLO DELL'INTEPRETAZIONE BIBLICA NEL LEVIATHAN DI THOMAS HOBBES." Doctoral thesis, Università degli Studi di Milano, 2019. http://hdl.handle.net/2434/675148.

Full text
Abstract:
In Leviathan Hobbes confronts with the Bible devoting no less than half part of his work to religious and theological matter. In the parts three and four of Leviathan we can find eighteen voluminous chapters devoted to the discussion of various elements of the Christian faith such as prophecy, revelation, miracles and salvation. In doing so Hobbes deals with a lot of passages from the Old and New Testament. In my thesis I consider the reasons, the method, and the role of Hobbes’s account on the Bible to show how the biblical interpretation and the political theory of Hobbes are strictly related. In the first part, I consider how the historical and intellectual reasons that lead Hobbes into a so closer study of the Bible are innumerable and varied. I considered how the dilemma of choosing between papal and clerical abuse to the monopoly over right interpretation, and between protestant Sola Scripura arising from the individual right to read the bible for oneself, appears a theoretical problem in Leviathan. Hobbes faces this problem confronts with the Bible to show how the Scripture affirms that the Sovereign should control both civil and ecclesiastical power and how one unified and scientific method of reading the Bible could potentially eliminate all religious conflict. In this way Hobbes can reply, as much as political libido dominandi of catholic Church to the religious enthusiasm of puritans. In the second part of the thesis I considered how, in his account of the Bible Hobbes adopts an hermeneutic principles that provide for the use of mere natural reason and strictly excluded Enthusiasm or supernatural inspiration. In the chapter XXXIII of Leviathan Hobbes explains that men should expect an agreement between the truth of reason and God’s word and so Christians should not renounce to their senses or experiences nor does their natural reason because they are useful to understand better the word of God. Hobbes cannot deny that, in Scripture, there be many things above reason, but he parenterally affirms that there is nothing contrary to it. Hobbes develops in his biblical exegesis a strong critic against scholasticism. Hobbes’s rejection to schoolman is based in fact on his conclusion that their way of philosophizing has contributed to the abuse of the scripture by constructing an abstract and confusing language which is contrary to natural reason and adepts can manipulate the citizens. In the third part I considered how this is true especially for his account on the Hebrew Bible, the first five book of the Bible, known also as Torah, or “the law”. While tracing back the history of Jews, in his discussion on the Prophetic kingdom of God, Hobbes ascertains that civil and ecclesiastical powers have always been an exclusive privilege exercised by a one and single person, holder of the supreme authority to interpret the law and the word of God. According to Hobbes is the Mosaic covenant, described in the book of exodus, is the historical example of unified authority: political and religious. As Moses controlled both the civil and the ecclesiastical power so the sovereign is allowed to establish regulations for the conduct of civil life, and he has the power to judge the word of God and impose obligation in God’s name, since is God that gives the authority to interpret divine commands to the people invested with sovereignty. In this sense the political exegesis of the Hebrew Bible is something crucial in Hobbes’s argumentations.

Abstract:
This chapter analyzes how female figures relate to events in the nascent Muslim polity—in its emerging theological discourses, its normative social practices, and its encounters with other religiously identified polities. Moving roughly chronologically through the revelation of Qur’anic surahs, the chapter focuses on narratives in which women are involved in the establishment of communal moral and legal precedents, such as in the case of a slander against a righteous woman. This heuristic brings to light ways in which female personalities serve as exemplars of vice and virtue against the backdrop of a religious polity in formation. The chapter argues that the Qur’an regularly depicts female moral and spiritual excellence and is often proactively engaged with affairs of direct importance for girls and women. At the same time, certain female figures exercise their agency only to their own detriment. The chapter highlights how narratives involving biblical figures feature prominently in the Qur’an during a period in which the Prophet Muḥammad was attempting to forge political alliances grounded in a sense of theological kinship. In this context, the Qur’an depicts the women of the Prophet Muḥammad’s family as continuing a legacy of exemplary biblical women figures.

Abstract:
This chapter considers how books about history, science, or religion were shared. Library catalogues and diaries show that the borrowing, selling, and reading of sermons, histories, and travel writing dwarfed that of literary works. Records of books sold in parts show that the largest genre available in this form was history, followed by geography, topography, and travel, then biblical commentary, church history, and treatises on morality. The expanding print market created newly accessible formats across many areas of intellectual enquiry, and the display of generalist knowledge about historical figures, botany, or astronomy was a prominent part of polite accomplishment for both men and women. Eighteenth-century readers consumed nonfiction works together at home—for piety, self-improvement, and entertainment.

This chapter discusses the various ways in which violent rites might have an impact on the shaping of social relationships in the world of the biblical text. The author’s primary interest in this chapter is to illuminate how ritual violence might function to terminate, perpetuate, and even create connections between individuals, groups, or polities. Texts examined include 1 Sam 22:12–19, the story of Saul’s mercenary Doeg the Edomite’s execution of the priests of Nob; 2 Sam 10:1–5, the Ammonites’ public humiliation of David’s embassy of comforters; 2 Sam 16:5–13, the cursing, stoning, and dirt casting of Shimi the Benjaminite as David flees Jerusalem before Absalom’s army; 2 Sam 20:1–22, the execution of the rebel Sheba ben Bikri by the inhabitants of Abel Bet Maacah; and Neh 13:25, the account of Nehemiah’s violent, coercive rites targeting his intermarried opponents.

Abstract:
This chapter explores perceptions of women's magic in late antiquity and post-Roman Europe. It reveals that they had much in common; they drew on familiar themes developed around specific larger-than-life biblical and literary characters. The stereotype of women avariciously wielding magic to ensnare men and upset the body politic through secretive sorcery are absent in patristic writings about Christian women, but that archetype resurfaced in early medieval sources. Yet, however fearful, sinful, and illegal women's magic was, their sorcery was taken seriously and acted to empower them. Their sorcery was terrifying—indexed on ancient rituals drawn from rhythms of the natural world. Women, who were themselves defined by their corporeality, had an intuitive affinity for magic of the body. Both healing and birth magic were domains in which competition between the church, wives, and mothers was rife.

A szerző arra vállalkozik, hogy doktori dolgozatából készült könyvének utolsó (redukált) fejezetét, valamint a tudományos eredményeket bemutató szakasz egy részét moderáltan revideálja és egy új, szignifikáns aspektussal gazdagítsa. A 21. század társadalmai szinte evidensnek tartják azoknak a tehetségeknek a feltérképezését és szocializálását, akik csúcsteljesítményükkel elősegíthetik saját nemzetük, vagy globálisabb szemüvegen keresztül tekintve, a föld népei számára a közjó megvalósulását. Kiemelkedően fontosnak tűnik ez a felgyorsult világban, ahol a társadalmi-gazdasági folyamatokon belül egyre markánsabban jelenik meg egy olyan bizonytalansági faktor, amely nagy részben csökkenti a társadalmi-gazdasági folyamatokra vonatkozó prognózisok és rizikó-analízisek hatékonyságát. Az említett társadalmi tünetek feltérképezésére és orvoslására egy olyan politikai-gazdasági elit lehet képes, amely kompetenciával bír az adott területen és tulajdonságai leírhatók a tehetség fogalmával. A tanulmány releváns új kutatási eredménye, hogy a Biblia és a Korán átfogó elemzése lehetőséget adott egy új, eddig sehol nem használt vezetői tehetség tipológia megalkotására.
