How the Halakhah Unfolds - Jacob Neusner - Bog - University Press of America - Plusbog.dk

How the Halakhah Unfolds - Jacob Neusner - Bog - University Press of America - Plusbog.dk

In separate multi-volumed works, form-analytical English translations of the Mishnah, Tosefta, Yerushalmi, and Bavli have been set forth. Outlines of the Yerushalmi and the Bavli have been brought about, and those outlines of the two Talmuds have been compared. In addition, for each subject the main points of the Halakhah of the topical expositions or tractates of the Mishnah-Tosefta-Yerushalmi-Bavli have been set forth. The theological message of the respective tractates has been spelled out. Here, we follow a single tractate through the principal documents of formative Judaism as these have already presented them. How the academic commentaries, outlines and comparisons, and theological summaries yield a systematic account of the Halakhah in its documentary unfolding is thus fully exposed.

Chapters in the Formative History of Judaism - Jacob Neusner - Bog - University Press of America - Plusbog.dk

The documentary reading of the Rabbinic canon continues to create engaging questions and interesting problems for study. This collection of essays and book reviews represents two years of work from 2003 to 2005 focused on the Rabbinic canon. The collection is divided into four main groups. The first set of essays represents examples of historical and history-of-religion questions precipitated by the documentary perspective. The second group of essays focuses on the treatment of 56 B.C.E., 70 C.E., and 132-135 C.E. in successive canonical compilations. This section compares and contrasts Rabbinic and Christian writings on the same topic, Halakhic and Aggadic documents on the same topic, the theological description of a Rabbinic document, and various historical problems. The third set of essays deals with the history of law, and the fourth section includes several freestanding essays and six book reviews.

Bridging Cultures - - Bog - University Press of America - Plusbog.dk

Bridging Cultures - - Bog - University Press of America - Plusbog.dk

Bridging Cultures explores the experiences of international women faculty as they acculturate to the US academy. In a series of memoirs shaped by multiple disciplinary perspectives, these women reflect on their gendered personal experiences as “ex-pat” faculty members and set their stories within the larger context of American higher education’s increasingly international character. Response pieces by scholars drawn from a range of fields and institutional settings situate this project within diverse frameworks. The response pieces will inform and educate faculty, students, and administrators interested in shaping the culture of the academy today. With an introduction focused on their interdisciplinary feminist methodology, an epilogue revisiting the collaborative strategies employed throughout their project, and a set of generative discussion questions, the editors provide numerous tools to support related research and teaching. They also provide a means for professional development for both faculty and administrators. Click here to see excerpts from the book featured in the Journal of Transnational American Studies.

Judaism in Monologue and Dialogue - Jacob Neusner - Bog - University Press of America - Plusbog.dk

What Believers Don't Have to Believe - Craig Payne - Bog - University Press of America - Plusbog.dk

What Believers Don't Have to Believe - Craig Payne - Bog - University Press of America - Plusbog.dk

Many books set out the basic doctrines of the Christian faith, the teachings regarded as essential to orthodox Christianity. However, can one be a faithful, biblical Christian and completely disagree with the doctrines that other biblical Christians regard as crucial? How much is one required to believe to maintain Christian orthodoxy, and how much is one not required to believe? Christians often seem to use various doctrines as "litmus tests" to gauge the maturity and spirituality of fellow Christians. In What Believers Don''t Have to Believe, author Craig Payne uses evidence from the Creeds, Christian history, the scriptures, and philosophy to argue for the invalidity of these "litmus tests." In particular, this book focuses on five areas of disagreement: creation, biblical inerrancy, human nature, Christian political involvement, and eschatology. In each of these areas there are equally biblical, logical, and faithful interpretive stances. What Believers Don''t Have to Believe ultimately argues that these disagreements are non-essential and unnecessary, and should be set aside in favor of confessional unity.

Critical Research and Evaluation - Robert P. Nestor - Bog - University Press of America - Plusbog.dk

Research is, in effect, an art of applying a set of skills in solving a researchable problem. Such a stated goal often gives both student and teacher a great deal of difficulty when the development of research skills must conform to the time limitation of one semester or one or two courses in research. Critical Research and Evaluation is a "layman''s" guide to understanding and conducting basic research. It is a guide to "action" research with real world applications in local settings.

Theological Dictionary of Rabbinic Judaism - Jacob Neusner - Bog - University Press of America - Plusbog.dk

Theological Dictionary of Rabbinic Judaism - Jacob Neusner - Bog - University Press of America - Plusbog.dk

Rabbinic theological language has made possible a vast range of discourse, on many subjects over long spans of recorded time and in diverse cultural settings. This theological dictionary defines the principal theological usages of Rabbinic Judaism as set forth in the Rabbinic canon of late antiquity, Mishnah, Talmuds, and Midrash-compilations. It systematically lays [1] the theological categories that are native to those writings; [2] cogent statements that can be made with them; [3] coherent propositions that those statements set forth and (within their own terms and framework) logically demonstrate as true and self-evident, both. Volume One of this dictionary covers vocabulary that permits the classification of religious knowledge and experience, and the organization and categorization of those data into intelligible and cogent sense-units. Volume Two shows how these classifications combine and recombine in sentences. We may deem these rules of theological discourse concerning religious experience to be the counterpart of syntax which words combine (or do not combine) with which other words, in what inflection or signaled relationship, and why. Volume Three shows how the theology accomplishes its goals of analysis, explanation, and anticipation in order to make sense of and impose meaning upon a subject. That marks the point at which constructive theology commences and systematic theology will find its language.

Love and Sex - Richard L. Rapson - Bog - University Press of America - Plusbog.dk

Love and Sex - Richard L. Rapson - Bog - University Press of America - Plusbog.dk

In this volume, noted scholars Elaine Hatfield and Richard Rapson focus on the cross-cultural research concerning the passionate beginnings of relationships: how people meet, fall in love, make love, and fall out of love, usually only to risk it all over again. Through in-depth analysis and astute assessment, they compare the way cultures try to set rules for these incendiary matters. Two main questions addressed are: ''What seems to be biological and universal?'' and ''What seems to be socially constructed and transient?'' Taking a historical perspective, the authors ask where different societies, and the world itself, are headed?
