Moral Good, the Beatific Vision, and God’s Kingdom Writings by Germain Grisez and Peter Ryan, S.J.. Edited by Peter J. Weigel
No full textFor close to half a century, the work of Germain Grisez has been highly influential, and his writings continue to receive considerable attention from philosophers and theologians of diverse viewpoints. His co-author for this work is the professor and noted moral theologian Fr. Peter Ryan, S.J., currently the executive director of the Secretariat of Doctrine and Canonical Affairs of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB). These two eminent scholars explore fundamental questions about Christian eschatology, moral theory, the purpose of human life, and the promise of human fulfilment. The authors examine Christian teaching on the final destiny of persons, investigating the meaning of God's kingdom, the hope of the beatific vision, and the centrality of moral goodness and divine grace in one's final end. This work is an ideal source for students, scholars, ministers and lay persons interested in basic questions of Christian theology, the philosophy of religion, ethical theory, and Catholic doctrin

Die Digitale Bibliothek der Akademie der Wissenschaften zu Göttingen
No full textDie Akademie der Wissenschaften zu Göttingen (AdWG) und die niedersächsische Staats- und Universitätsbibliothek Göttingen (SUB) haben ihre bestehende Kooperation zum Webportal der AdWG intensiviert, das einen Überblick über die Aktivitäten der Göttinger Akademie und umfangreiche Information zu den zahlreichen Langzeitvorhaben bietet und die digitalen Publikationen präsentiert. Zentraler Bestandteil des Webportals ist die Digitale Bibliothek der AdWG, für die im Rahmen der Kooperation neue Präsentationsformen für die Forschungsdaten aus den Akademie-Vorhaben konzipiert und entwickelt wurden. Ein Beispiel für die Umsetzung neuer Präsentationsformen im Portal ist das Edfu-Projekt, dessen Ziel eine Gesamtübersetzung aller Inschriften des Tempels von Edfu in Oberägypten ist. Hinzugezogen werden dazu alle internen, greifbaren, in den Schriften enthaltenen Parallelen, auf die online über das Webportal zugegriffen werden kann. Zerstörte Bereiche lassen sich dadurch oftmals ebenso ergänzen, wie zunächst unverständliche Textpassagen mit Sinn versehen werden können. Nicht nur die bereits vorübersetzten Texte sind auf diese Weise abrufbar, sondern darüber hinaus zahlreiche zusätzliche Materialien, wie z.B. das Fotoarchiv mit seinen mehr als 20.000 Bildern. Die Vernetzung all dieser Daten schafft einen für die Wissenschaft ungewöhnlich tiefen Einblick in die Planung und Konzeption eines altägyptischen Tempels, seiner religiösen Hintergründe und historischen Zusammenhänge.
The Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities (AdWG) and the Göttingen State and University Library (SUB) have intensified their existing cooperation on the web portal of the AdWG. The portal provides an overview of the activities of the Göttingen Academy as well as extensive information on its numerous long-term projects. It also presents the academy’s digital publications. A crucial part of the web portal is the Digital Library of the AdWG. Within the framework of the cooperation, new forms of presentation for the research data from the Academy projects have been conceptualized and developed. An example of the implementation of such a new form of presentation is the Edfu project. The goal of this project is an exhaustive translation of all inscriptions from the temple of Edfu in Upper Egypt. For this, all internal text parallels, which are accessible on the internet platform, are taken into account. This helps to reconstruct damaged inscriptions and recover the meaning of texts which seem incomprehensible at first. Not only the pre-translated texts are accessible online, but also the digital photo archive which covers more than 20.000 images. Bringing all this data into one network offers unusually deep insights into the planning and conceptualization of an ancient Egyptian temple, its religious background und historical context

Ein Atlas zur Unterscheidung von Korruptionsformen
No full textKorruption ist ein Begriff mit vielen Assoziationen, zu dem bereits eine Vielzahl an theoretischen Unterscheidungen postuliert wurden. Da diese Distinktionen mitunter verschiedenen Disziplinen entstammen und größtenteils unabhängig voneinander existieren, versucht dieser Beitrag einen Bezug zwischen den bestehenden Unterscheidungen in Form eines Atlasses der Korruptionsformen herzustellen. Mithilfe von insgesamt zehn Unterscheidungen können die mannigfachen Konzeptualisierungen des Korruptionsbegriffs in der Lehre vermittelt werden. Hierzu bietet der Beitrag in separaten Textkästen didaktische Anregungen für den Unterricht an. Außerdem wird die Anwendung des Atlasses zur Unterscheidung von bekannten Korruptionsfällen anhand dreier Fallbeispiele exemplarisch gezeigt. Das Ziel dieses Beitrags ist zum einen, die interdisziplinäre Kommunikation über Korruption zu erleichtern, und zum anderen, eine Übersicht über die diversen Korruptionsformen zu erstellen, die dem Lehrzweck dienen soll
