Its history is inextricably linked to the actions of many courageous men and women, who devoted themselves to its cause. This book honours 140 of these pioneers from different churches and communities and highlights the importance of the ecumenical movement in the 20th century. This new revised reference book for study and practical work examines the central concepts of Catholic Church law and defines these comprehensibly and concisely. Sabine Demel also introduces the reader to the specialist legal language. The articles illustrate the overall framework of the respective theological context. An important and useful reference book. Introduction to Christian Eschatology Einführung in die christliche Eschatologie 13,5 x 21,5 cm, ca. 240 pages, Hardcover ISBN: 978-3-451-30600-6 Is theology both scientific and ecclesiastical? Does its ecclesiastical aspect detract from its scientific aspect and vice versa? Jürgen Werbick's book examines and clarifies these central issues. Didactically structured, it adheres closely to the most recent theological study programmes and provides stimuli for further study. 15,1 x 22,7 cm, ca. 304 pages, Hardcover ISBN: 978-3-451-30220-6 15,1 x 22,7 cm, ca. 384 pages, Hardcover with bookjacket ISBN: 978-3-451-30222-0 May 2010 January 2010 May 2010 "The Doctrine of Last Things" is one of the most difficult tracts of systematic theology. Johanna Rahner examines the fundamental elements of this doctrine (hermeneutics of eschatological statements), as well as the more specialist issues, for example: resurrection of body and soul, the last judgement, eternal life and / or eternal damnation. 13,5 x 21,5 cm, ca. 280 pages, Paperback ISBN: 978-3-451-30337-1 May 2010 Baranzke, Heike / Breitsameter, Christof / Feeser-Licherfeld, Ulrich Böhnke, Michael / Söding, Thomas (Editors) Arens, Edmund (Editor) Frevel, Christian (Editor) Kasper, Walter Eschatology in interdisciplinary discourse Zeit denken Biblical Anthropology Biblische Anthropologie Church Liturgy Die Liturgie der Kirche Acting responsibly Handeln verantworten Time is an integral part of our lives. Sometimes it flies; sometimes it seems to stand still. Time also plays a central part in the scriptures. This book looks at the beginning and end of time. It discusses time and eternity from different perspectives: philosophical, practical and systematic theology. A fascinating interdisciplinary debate. Current discussions on genetic engineering, neurobiology and the dignity of man show how important it is for us to keep reviewing our conception of man. Theology and anthropology are inextricably linked. This book contains articles on biblical anthropology from the perspective of the Old and New Testaments. It pays particular attention to new ideas from philosophical and theological anthropology. In the light of the current discussion on liturgy Walter Kasper takes a stand on liturgical issues. He has no wish to break with tradition, but favours renewal developing from the spirit of liturgy and its tradition. Any form of renewal must be firmly rooted in theology and founded on constructive discussions in line with the spirit of the times. How are our actions ethically founded in modern society? What role does our conscience play? What role do human dignity and human rights play in consequentialism? Can we learn how to be responsible for our actions? This book deals with these and other fundamental ethical issues. A specialist, interdisciplinary book conveying our ability to take on responsibility for our actions and how we can learn to act responsibly. 13,5 x 21,5 cm, ca. 220 pages, Paperback ISBN: 978-3-451-30264-0 May 2010 www.herder.de 13,5 x 21,5 cm, ca. 240 pages, Paperback ISBN: 978-3-451-02234-0 January 2010 13,5 x 21,5 cm, ca. 460 pages, Paperback ISBN: 978-3-451-02237-1 February 2010 13,9 x 21,4 cm, ca. 400 pages, Hardcover with bookjacket ISBN: 978-3-451-30610-5 April 2010 Religion / Theology Frank, Günter / Käuflein, Albert (Editors) Stein, Edith Ecumenism today Ökumene heute Contributions to a philosophical reasoning underlying psychology and humanities Beiträge zur philosophischen Begründung der Psychologie und der Geisteswissenschaften The ecumenical movement has resulted in improved relations between the different Christian confessions over the years. There are, however, still significant theological differences. This book illustrates that the future of ecumenism is dependent on the continuation and consolidation of ecumenical dialogue at different levels. 13,5 x 21,5 cm, ca. 360 pages, Paperback ISBN: 978-3-451-30256-5 The texts of this book are part of a subject that Edith Stein was involved with at the end of the 1920's: I in the framework of social philosophy, which was a highly topical subject in the aftermath of the First World War. These texts are not well-known and need to be made available to the wider general public. 5 Amaladoss, Michael Index. Bernhard Welte Gesamtregister Seeing Jesus with new eyes Jesus neu sehen This book contains all 15 volumes of Bernhard Welte's collected works, including an index of all his writings, a complete index of people and facts, as well as a register of biblical quotations. Information on the people who have been involved with his writing is also included. Michael Amaladoss describes himself as a Hindu-Christian. He doesn't mix the two religions, but conveys what they have in common; both are directed to God as an absolute reality. This allows him to use the symbols and images of each religion to facilitate access to Jesus Christ, which in turn leads to deeper understanding of Jesus and enriches our faith. 13,9 x 21,4 cm, ca. 128 pages, Hardcover with bookjacket ISBN: 978-3-451-31065-2 13,5 x 21,5 cm, ca. 220 pages, Paperback ISBN: 978-3-451-33034-6 May 2010 January 2010 Zimmermann-Acklin, Markus Schlag, Thomas Lahbabi, Muhammad Azîz Bioethics from a theological perspective Bioethik in theologischer Perspektive Horizons of democratic education Horizonte demokratischer Bildung Man: A witness of God.

The concept of God is examined in Kant's "Religionsschrift" as is the relationship between philosophical theology and revelation theology as well as the Trinitarian theological approach in Kant's philosophy. 15,1 x 22,7 cm, ca. 224 pages, Hardcover with bookjacket ISBN: 978-3-451-30135-3 June 2010 www.herder.de Bioethics examines our dealings with life and nature. Our treatment of human life, our approach to health care and clinical-ethical issues have become central themes of theological bioethics. This book provides insight into challenges currently being addressed from a theological-ethical perspective. This book discusses how protestant religious education confronted issues relating to political and democratic education up to the 1990s. On the basis of these findings Thomas Schlag has developed a theory of protestant religious education from a political perspective. His aim is to develop protestant education as democratic education. When Muslims and Christians speak of "man", do they both mean the same thing? How do Muslims define the dignity of man? What responsibilities does man have? Moroccan philosopher Muhammad Azîz Lahbabi uses the Muslim creed for his statements on man as a person. Some of his work appears here for the first time in German translation. 15,4 x 22,9 cm, ca. 388 pages, Paperback ISBN: 978-3-451-33062-9 15,1 x 22,7 cm, ca. 656 pages, Paperback ISBN: 978-3-451-34001-7 13,9 x 21,4 cm, ca. 224 pages, Paperback ISBN: 978-3-451-30346-3 April 2010 January 2010 May 2010 6 Religion / Theology Bentzin, Anke / Fürtig, Henner Krüppner, Thomas (Editors) Augustin, George / Brun, Maria Keller, Erwin (Editors) Unterburger, Klaus Becht, Michael / Walter, Peter (Editors) Christ – God's creative word „Christus – Gottes schöpferisches Wort“ From teachers of theology to teachers of popes? Vom Lehramt der Theologen zum Lehramt der Päpste? Between the Orient and the Occident Zwischen Orient und Okzident Harmony. Commemorative publication for Albert Raffelt ZusammenKlang Friends, colleagues and students of Peter Heine, a respected Islam expert from Berlin, have compiled a collection of studies on the occasion of him being granted emeritus status. The topics range from the significance of progress, enlightenment and tolerance to issues such as "career with a headscarf?" or "Does Sharia make you fat? Islamic restrictions in sport and its consequences". On the occasion of Christoph Cardinal Schönborn's 65th birthday on the 22nd of January 2010 his friends and colleagues have compiled a collection of writings based on the core of his scientific work: Christology and Creation. A wide variety of subjects are included, for example, Darwin and intelligent design, classical Christology as well as modern challenges to faith. Conflicts between theology and teaching are part of modern ecclesiastical life. But how did they arise? Unterburger reveals how in the 19th century there was a reorientation of the papal self-concept which led to the apostolic constitution Deus scientiarum Dominus. Based on newly available Vatican sources he examines the sources and the effect of this document. 16,2 x 24,0 cm, ca. 352 pages, Hardcover ISBN: 978-3-451-30296-1 15,1 x 22,7 cm, ca. 640 pages, Hardcover with bookjacket ISBN: 978-3-451-30310-4 13,5 x 21,5 cm, ca. 680 pages, Paperback ISBN: 978-3-451-32288-4 15,1 x 22,7 cm, 432 pages, Hardcover with bookjacket ISBN: 978-3-451-30243-5 May 2010 October 2009 July 2010 January 2010 Augustin, George (Editor) Büchner, Christine Söding, Thomas Lohfink, Gerhard Living the church of Jesus Christ Die Kirche Jesu Christi leben How can God intervene in our lives? Wie kann Gott in der Welt wirken? The good news – Event and memory Die Verkündigung Jesu – Ereignis und Erinnerung The comfort of prayer Beten schenkt Heimat This book concentrates on the essential elements of Christian life and opens up new perspectives for pastoral care in ecclesiastical structures. The authors are Cardinal Walter Kasper, Bishop Kurt Koch, Boshop Franz-Peter Tebartz-van Elst, Medard Kehl, Jürgen Werbrick and George Augustin. The Bible speaks of God intervening in our world as a matter of course. Nowadays, however, God's intervening in our lives seems to be everything but a matter of course. It leads to scientific aporias. Where is there evidence of God's intervention, a God who loves us all alike? 13,5 x 21,5 cm, ca. 200 pages, Paperback ISBN: 978-3-451-30314-2 13,5 x 21,5 cm, 440 pages, Paperback ISBN: 978-3-451-32283-9 March 2010 The post-Easter interpretation of the Gospels illustrates that the evangelists were in a position to see Jesus as he saw himself – in a living relationship with God. The parables, the beatitudes, the miracles, as written down in the Gospels, bear witness to the Good News Jesus proclaimed. They are not dependent on the memory of those who followed him, but rather proclaim Jesus of Nazareth as he was.

Others want to know if prayer helps. This book guides us in the theology of prayer, concentrating on the Bible, in particular the psalms. Lohfink examines the following questions: Does God intervene? Who do we say prayers to? Is there any sense sending petitions to God? Are prayer and anger compatible? What is so special about the psalms? 13,5 x 21,5 cm, 260 pages, Hardcover with bookjacket ISBN: 978-3-451-33052-0 January 2010 Croatian rights sold 7 Religion / Theology Augustin, George Called to joy. Encouraging priesthood Zur Freude berufen This book is an inspiration to all those who feel drawn to priesthood.

Monika Gänßbauer has skilfully translated these meditative texts into German. Eckhart von Hochheim, born approx. 1260, better know as Meister Eckhart, is one of the most significant German mystics. Mystics are "people who have experienced something" (Karl Rahner).

The cloth displays a striking negative image of a man who has suffered physical trauma consistent with crucifixion. For many Christians it is the most sacred of holy relics. Is it really the face of Jesus? Is it a fake? Bernd Kollmann examines the facts and reaches an astonishing conclusion. 12,0 x 19,0 cm, 224 pages, Flexible cover ISBN: 978-3-451-34002-4 13,5 x 21,5 cm, 160 pages, Hardcover with bookjacket ISBN: 978-3-451-32284-6 January 2010 January 2010 February 2010 12,0 x 19,0 cm, 96 pages, Paperback ISBN: 978-3-451-06216-2 Italian, Spanish, Portuguese rights sold.

Empress Elisabeth of Austria Sisi - Kaiserin Elisabeth von Österreich A year in Stockholm. Day to day travel Ein Jahr in Stockholm A year in Andalusia.
