    Bemerkungen zu Peter Wegners Ausführungen

    No full text
      Peter Wegner vertritt einen Berechenbarkeitsbegriff, der vom klassischen abweicht, wie er von Church, Kleene, Markov, Post, Turing und anderen etabliert wurde. Insbesondere umfassen Wegners Ideen die Interaktion als grundlegende Eigenschaft heutiger Systeme. In dieser Arbeit erfolgt ein Vergleich der beiden verschiedenen Auffassungen sowie eine Erörterung, ob die Kritik von Wegner am klassischen Berechenbarkeitsbegriff berechtigt ist.Summary  Peter Wegner’s definition of computability differs markedly from the classical term as established by Church, Kleene, Markov, Post, Turing et al.. Wegner identifies interaction as the main feature of today’s systems lacking in the classical treatment of computability. We compare the different approaches and argue whether or not Wegner’s criticism is appropriate

    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

    Rose Wegner Family Collection 1884-2003 Bulk dates: 1937-1942, 2002-2003

    No full text
    This collection consists mainly of Rose’s mother Gertrud Leon’s letters to her in the years 1938-1942; other family members’ letters are also included. There are about 175 letters, 40 postcards and 20 telegrams including returned mail from Rose to her mother. Bernhard’s and Gertrud’s planned emigration to Cuba and then the USA is the main topic in the telegrams. In the letters, Gertrud talks a lot about her daily life and what other family members are doing; she also asks about Rose’s life and comments on what Rose tells her. The letters from other family members contain similar topics.The more recent correspondence between Peter Leon and Beate Niemann (2002-2003) deals with the past of Beate’s Nazi parents and their connection to the Leons, in whose house Beate was born.All correspondence as described above is located in Series I.The collection includes also some personal documents of the Rollmann/Koburger-Reiss family (1884-1986), family friends of the Wegner/Leons, located in Series II.The following individuals are mentioned in this collection:Leon, Bernhard; Leon, Gertrud; Leon, Peter; Mayer (née Leon), Ilse Jeanette; Mayer, Julius; Niemann, Beate; Wegner, Rose; Wegner, Steven.See inventory listRose Wegner, born in 1909, was the penultimate of Bernhard and Gertrud Leon's five children. Apparently, the family changed their name from Loewy to Leon. Bernhard was the youngest of six children in a family that had long lived in Berlin. He married Gertrud Markwald, whose family was also originally from Berlin. Rose had a sister, Ilse Jeanette, born in 1903, and three brothers, Arno, born in 1905, Heinz, born in 1907, and Gerhard, born in 1911. In Berlin, the Leons belonged to Rabbi Leo Baeck's congregation in Fasanenstrasse. Heinz emigrated to England when he was 18 or 19 years old, in approximately 1926. He would later help his siblings come to England.On March 31, 1933, Rose went to England and, thereafter, traveled back and forth between England and Germany. In 1936, Rose, who was a professional silversmith, returned to Germany to collect the silver from her workshop. In 1938, Rose married Steven Wegner (born March 14, 1901), another German refugee whom she met in England. Steven had been born Sally but changed it because he disliked that name.The Leon children attempted to get Bernhard and Gertrud out of Germany. They arranged for a visa to Cuba for their parents (emigration to Britain which was at war with Germany, was obviously not permitted). Bernhard died on April 16th, 1941 of natural causes, aggravated perhaps by political conditions in Germany. The visa process was delayed by the bureaucratic need to resubmit the papers for Gertrud alone. Eventually, the plan for Gertrud to emigrate collapsed and, in 1943, she was deported to Theresienstadt, where she again encountered Rabbi Leo Baeck. On September 10, 1944, Gertrud was deported to Auschwitz and was murdered there. Other relatives were also victims of the Holocaust, including Bernhard's older brother Moritz, who was thrown from stairwell of his fourth story apartment during a raid by the police. Moritz's maid, Grete, who tried to protect him, was stomped to death.In England, the three Leon brothers served in the British army. Heinz died of cancer in service in North Africa. After the war, Ilse met Leo Baeck again, who informed the family of Gertrud's deportation from Theresienstadt to Auschwitz. Arno returned after the war to Germany with the British Occupation Forces and is buried in the Jewish cemetery in Duesseldorf. Ilse (married to Julius Meyer with her children Daisy and Harald) and Gerhard remained in Britain. Rose and Steven remained in the greater New York metropolitan area, where they raised two children, Bryan (*summer 1939) and Marian. Steven died on May 17, 1968.In 2002, Beate Niemann approached Peter Leon, Gerhard’s son in London, to ask him about his family’s past because she was born in 1942 in Gertrud’s house at Manfred-von-Richthofen-Str. 125 in Berlin Tempelhof. Her parents had “bought” the house from Gertrud. Niemann’s father was SS-Sturmbannfuehrer Bruno Sattler. Niemann tried to find out more about her own and the Leon family. Her story was eventually filmed by the documentary film maker Yoash Tatari (DVD can be found in the LBI’s audio-visual collection) and published in 2003 by WDR (West German Broadcasting.) Peter Leon forwarded his whole conversation with Beate Niemann to his cousin Marian, Rose’s daughter.digitizedLetters #73 and #74 from and #25, #32, #42, #43, and #53 from 1941 are not extant.Levy, Eva.
