    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 text
    For 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

    The Family Tompa as a Part of Lesser Nobility from Lipnik in the 17th Century

    U ovom članku riječ je o plemićkoj obitelji Tompa de Palychna, koja je od 1603. naseljavala pokupske predjele vlastelinstva Ribnik te tu ostala sljedećih 200 godina. Iako su u dokumentima zapisani početkom 17. stoljeća kao Tompa de Palychna, nalazimo nedvojbene dokaze da se i kod te obitelji rabe odrednice de Horzowa i de Palychna. U članku su predstavljene neke najizrazitije osobe iz obitelji Tompa de Palychna iz Pokuplja. Iako članak nije tipična genealoška studija, mi se tu bavimo kako dilemom oko podrijetla obitelji tako i njihovim položajem u širem povijesnom kontekstu. Posebnu pozornost smo posvetili klasifikaciji i popisu njihovih imanja.In the article we propose a hypothesis that the members of the Tompa family of Horzowa and Tompa of Palychna were descendants of one family, which was divided according to the following principle: descendants from the first marriage used the nobiliary particle (germ. adelsprädikat, cro. plemićki pridjevak)) of Horzowa, whereas the descendants from the second marriage that of Palychna. We show this with two undoubtable examples. In other way, similar practice has not been observed in other families and one could postulate that during different periods of time members of the same family used different nobiliary particles. The first one is that Nicholas, the son of Melchior Tompa of Horzowa and Helena Forčić of Butinavac, is mentioned in several documents as Nicholas Tompa of Horzowa, as well as Georg, the second Melchior’s son is mentioned as George Tompa of Horzowa. However, Stephan, Melchior’s son from the second marriage with Josipina Orešković used the nobiliary particle of Palychna. Although some questions related to the Stephan’s identity remain unanswered, we know that this Stephen had a son Peter Tompa of Palychna. According to the hypothesis, we concluded that Peter was also from the second marriage. With a help from documents from the Tompa family papers in the Croatian State Archives we found information that Stephen Tompa of Palychna was first married to Katarina Radojčić Delišimunović. According to Wurzbach this Stephen was married to Karolina of Apoky. If Katarina was Stephen’s second wife, than he had with her a son Peter, who used, as we know from the documents, the predicate of Palychna. In the beginning of the 17th century we find Stephen Tompa on the estates around the river Kupa, Breznik, Lipnik in Bratovanci, later Bubnjarci, Paka, Pravutina, and Jankovrh with Sopčić selo. As petty nobility from Lipnik, the family Tompa stayed there the next 200 years when around 1803 the branch of Horzowa moved to Sredičko, and later to the Velika Mlaka. From there the descendants of Aleksandar Tompa of Horzowa moved to Zagreb, where this male line ceased to exist in mid of 20th century. From the analysis of marriages of the members of the Tompa family we conclude that their marriage bonds were in major part with the members of the local lesser nobility, who were forced to displace from their old estates due to Turks threats. These families then settled in more safe areas such as Zagorje, broader vicinity of Zagreb and Žumberak, and became the familiars (vassals) of magnates or the officers of the Vojna Krajina (the Military Frontier). They were the families Radojčić (Radoychich, also known as Delišimunović), Čolnić, Szilly, de Apoky, Femenić (Femen alias Hubetić), Maršanić, Malić and Farkašić, later in the 18th and 19th century the families Rottman, Mandić, Vukmanić, the barons Cirhemb (freiherren of Zirheimb), Kriegler, Benedy, Vranyczany-Dobrinović, Apoka-Potaky, Tanczoss de Galantha, Malloschegg, Dočkal, Tomac, Krizman, Garić, Molinari and Cvijić

    PhasAGE Training School 4 “Protein aggregation, intrinsic disorder and phase separation in the era of machine learning” was co-organized by the H2020-funded Twinning project PhasAGE (GA 952334), the H2020-funded MSCA project IDPfun (GA 778247) and the COST Action “Non-globular proteins in the era of machine learning – ML4NGP” (CA21160) and took place i3S in Porto (Portugal). The main goal of this training school was to provide participants with multidisciplinary training on computational and experimental tools and a comprehensive knowledge of integrative methodologies for studying intrinsically disordered proteins and protein aggregation in cell biology and disease

    Fuzzy Complexes: Polymorphism And Structural Disorder In Protein-protein Interactions

    No full text
    The notion that all protein functions are determined through macromolecular interactions is the driving force behind current efforts that aim to solve the structures of all cellular complexes. Recent findings, however, demonstrate a significant amount of structural disorder or polymorphism in protein complexes, a phenomenon that has been largely overlooked thus far. It is our view that such disorder can be classified into four mechanistic categories, covering a continuous spectrum of structural states from static to dynamic disorder and from segmental to full disorder. To emphasize its generality and importance, we suggest a generic term, 'fuzziness', for this phenomenon. Given the crucial role of protein disorder in protein-protein interactions and in regulatory processes, we envision that fuzziness will become integral to understanding the interactome. © 2007 Elsevier Ltd.
