Disciplining the Divine offers the first comprehensive treatment of the Social Model of the Trinity, exploring its central place within much theological discourse of the past half century, including its relation to wider cultural and political concerns. The book highlights the manner in which theologians have attempted to make the doctrine of God relevant to modern issues and outlooks and it charts the conditions that have necessitated such a reconfiguration of theological analysis. While interrogatory in tone and intent, Disciplining the Divine nevertheless provides a critical reconstruction of a Christian theology and practice which might be undertaken within the political and cultural contexts of the new millennium.

Wellesley Tudor Pole darf ganz ohne Zweifel zu den einflussreichsten spirituellen Persönlichkeiten Englands im 20. Jahrhundert gezählt werden. Er war nicht nur die Inspirationsquelle Churchills im 2. Weltkrieg, er beeinflusste auch eine Reihe wichtiger Gemeinschaften im Vereinigten Königreich, die später weltweite Bedeutung erlangen sollten. Der Schwerpunkt seiner Arbeit lag jedoch auf seinem eigenen Zentrum in Glastonbury – Chalice Well. Allein seinem Engagement ist es zu verdanken, dass die alte „Gralsquelle“ wiederbelebt wurde und heute in neuem Glanz erblüht. In jenem Gebiet, das seit den Gründungstagen des Christentums in England von größter spiritueller Bedeutung war. Hier soll, der Legende nach, Joseph von Arimathäa die Abendmahlsschale aufbewahrt haben, die fast zwei Jahrtausende später von Tudor Pole wiederentdeckt wurde. Eine Geschichte, die ein eigenes Buch wert wäre! Paul Fletcher zeichnet in diesem faszinierenden, überaus spannenden Buch den Lebensweg Tudor Poles anhand seiner eigenen Dokumente nach. So kristallisiert sich eine Biographie heraus, die wohl ihresgleichen in Europa sucht. Die Geschichte einer großen Seele, deren wahre Bedeutung erst nachfolgende Generationen erkennen werden!

The Politics to Come brings together an international collection of thinkers to consider the meaning of liberal democratic modernity at a moment when its future has never been less certain. It examines the explosive threats the liberal order confronts today: financial meltdown, religious extremism, environmental catastrophe. Yet, it also seeks to place these - singularly modern - crises within a much longer history. For the contributors to this collection, it is the ancient religious tradition called 'the messianic' that provides the critical lens through which modernity may be interrogated. In its ongoing struggles with the messianic, liberal modernity confronts the promise and threat of a radically new Politics to Come. So what are the Politics to Come? How do they manifest themselves throughout history? Why does the possibility of a messianic judgement continue to haunt the western political imaginary? This collection offers a series of political, philosophical and theological perspectives from which the future of liberal modernity - if it has one - can be imagined.

The study of patients affected by disorders of the central nervous system is one of the crucial research methods for investigating the organization of cognitive functions in the brain. However, many clinicians remain unaware of the significant advances that have taken place in the field of cognitive neuroscience in the last decades. This book provides an introduction to the cognitive and behavioural aspects of the clinical practice of neurology. Most of the contributors to this book combine an active clinical practice with a leading role in their respective research area, and have provided concise summaries of the theoretical advances which they consider as potentially relevant for the clinical evaluation and treatment of patients. This general approach has led to a format which is different from the many textbooks of neuropsychology that have appeared in the last few years. The organization of the material follows the main issues of diagnostic evaluation, clinical presentation and management. As a consequence, the book deals not only with the classical neuropsychological syndromes associated with stroke and degenerative dementias, but also with other common clinical conditions, such as multiple sclerosis, head injury, epilepsy and psychiatric disorders, which are often neglected in neuropsychology textbooks. Cognitive Neurology will be essential for neurologists in training, who want to understand how the observations they make everyday in the clinic relate to the expanding knowledge about the organization of cognition and emotion in the human brain. It will also be of interest to psychologists and cognitive neuroscientists, speech and language clinicians and rehabilitation specialists and psychiatrists.
