    Józef Reinhold (1884-1928) – The “Forgotten” Professor of Penal Law at the Jagiellonian UniversityThe university career of Józef Reinhold had not been particularly long, as it lasted merely ten years (1918–1928). Due to his premature death at the age of 44, he occupies a rather peripheral place among the luminaries of Polish penal law, remaining in the shadow of such famous professors as: Edmund Krzymuski, Juliusz Makarewicz or Józef Rosenblatt. Yet the academic achievements of Józef Reinhold, and particularly his paper entitled Preventive Measures Against Criminal Offenders published in 1913, puts him among the ranks of the precursors of a sociological approach to the Polish penal law in the 20th century. He was also the first propagator of criminal policy on Polish territories which he regarded as a separate discipline of law. Thanks to the academic research conducted by Józef Reinhold, the sociological approach to criminal law had been more widely recognized on Polish territories which found its most tangible reflection in chapter XII (“Preventive measures”) of the Polish Penal Code of 1932. However, the merits of Józef Reinhold in propagating the principles of the sociological approach to criminal law had been overshadowed by the academic achievement of Julisz Makarewicz, the author of the Polish penal code. A considerable part of Józef Reinhold’s professional career was associated with the Krakow jurisdiction (1910–1921). Contrary to his colleagues, fellow professors and masters, Józef Reinhold was not “a boisterous character and was always characterized by moderation”. This trait of his character may be one of the reasons why in the history of the Polish science of law and in the history of Polish Jews, professor Reinhold did not find a deserving place which was definitely due to him, taking into consideration his original and creative academic output, and the attitude of a “good, talented Jew as well as a staunch defender” of Judaism

    Reinhold Niebuhr and an Ethic of Humility in Deliberative Politics

    No full text
    The purpose of this dissertation is to investigate the degree to which the political psychology of Reinhold Niebuhr contributes to a more capacious theory of deliberative politics and to what degree such a theory may permit individuals to express themselves with more workable forms of democratic practice. Considerations of Reinhold Niebuhr's understanding of impermanence, anxiety, self-reflection, and empathy borne of humility guide the framework of the argument in that they inform and augment individual political preferences. The author uses these ideas to develop a theory of deliberative politics built upon the empathetic tendencies found in the self-scrutinizing humility of Reinhold Niebuhr's politics. The author considers this theory in contradistinction to ascendant strains in political theory and theologies of public life, which at times may disavowal Niebuhr's understanding of natural theology, his correspondent political realism, or otherwise miscategorize Niebuhr's political claims. The degree to which Niebuhr's ethical framework can or should be separated from Christian considerations of ethics more broadly, especially from Christian eschatology, is a major topic of discussion. Contrasting Niebuhr with other Christian ethicists permits us to see in what manner Niebuhr's political psychology might retain political value beyond a particular religious community. This work also considers limits of Niebuhr's understanding of liberal politics, and whether an ethic of humility can be overly disempowering at times. Tension between individual and aggregate political perspectives frames that discussion

    Novel Dialogue 3.5: The Romance of Recovery: Ben Bateman talks to Shola von Reinhold (AV)

    No full text
    Shola von Reinhold is the author of LOTE, a novel about getting lost in the archives and finding what the archives have lost. LOTE won the 2021 James Tait Black prize so who better to join Shola on Novel Dialogue than Ben Bateman of Edinburgh University, lead judge of the prize committee? This conversation takes listeners back to all yesterday's parties as Shola, Ben, and Aarthi time travel to the Harlem Renaissance and the interwar modernist era. Shola offers up Richard Bruce Nugent as their current figure of fascination (or "transfixion" to use a key image from LOTE), and wonders what it would have been like to move through Harlem and London by Nugent's side. Recovering the stories of black writers and artists is essential to Shola's literary project. It is also inseparable from restoring queerness to the once hyper-masculine and "muscular" paradigm of modernism. In a stirring discussion of the aesthetic forms and moods of historical recovery, Ben and Shola sink into the "purpleness" of the fin-de-siècle and explore the critical power of black sensuousness. Talk of decadence, ornamentality, and frivolity shapes the latter half of this episode, and Doris Payne, the West Virginian jewel thief, emerges as an exquisitely improbable modernist heroine

    Reinhold Martin, Mediators: Aesthetics, Politics and the City

    No full text
    What is a city, today? The answer to this question is both the main issue and the main target of Reinhold Martin’s book. The complexity of the subject is clear, as well as the many concerns raised by the literature. Nevertheless, the author declared interest moves from the recognition of an aestheticized confusion linked to the very definition of the city (undetermined, indeed, by its nature). Consequently, the focus is placed on the usually underestimated connection between aesthetic and pol..

    Is Self-Love Always a Vice? An Edwardsian Critique of Reinhold Niebuhr

    No full text
    Reinhold Niebuhr is often criticized for the negative attitude he has toward self-interest. The author contends that the writings of Jonathan Edwards, especially his understanding of natural morality, can form a counter-argument against Niebuhr’s claims. After examining both views, an attempt is made to show that Edwards can easily withstand some of the more prominent critiques made against Niebuhr

    A Study of Reinhold Schneider through Biography and Translation

    No full text
    This thesis consists of a biography of Reinhold Schneider and a translation of two stories which appeared in his 1943 collection of short stories entitled Die Dunkle Nacht. Each story is followed by notes which give explanations concerning historical background, biblical concepts and expressions, and problems in translation. The Bibliography is divided into "Works Cited" and "Works Consulted" for the reader who wishes to do further research on this author. The purpose of this thesis is to provide the English-speaking reader with an introduction to Reinhold Schneider, one of the few people who both wrote and published anti-Nazi literature within Germany during the Second World War. This courageous writer, who saw his role as giving his people "a helping word", sought to direct them back to the Absolute, revealed in the person of Jesus Christ. He also reminded them that the conscience is an indestructible part of man. The emphasis of this thesis presents itself equally in both Parts One and Two to show that Schneider deserved such names as "a voice in the wilderness" and "Germany's conscience" during this difficult period of history.Master of Arts (MA
