Savas Beatie The Other “Hermit” of Thoreau’s Walden Pond: The
Book Synopsis“I didn’t realize there was another ‘hermit’ of Walden Pond!” is the usual response author-historian Terry Barkley receives when he tells someone the subject of his new book. Henry David Thoreau’s experiment there from 1845-1847 is widely known and immortalized in his classic Walden; or, Life in the Woods (1854). However, stresses Barkley, “Neither the world nor even most avid Thoreauvians know about Edmond Hotham’s six-months at Walden Pond during the winter of 1868-1869,” the fascinating story of which is detailed in The Other “Hermit” of Thoreau’s Walden Pond: The Sojourn of Edmond Stuart Hotham. A generation later and nearly seven years after Henry Thoreau died in 1862 of tuberculosis in Concord, Massachusetts, a young theological student from New York City arrived in Concord in November 1868. Edmond Hotham had never been there, but he immediately began preparations to pursue the “wild life.” He met transcendentalist poet (William) Ellery Channing, a former close friend of Thoreau’s who had suggested to Thoreau that he build his cabin at Walden Pond. It was Channing who likely introduced Hotham to transcendentalist leader Ralph Waldo Emerson (the “Sage of Concord”), and Emerson who gave Hotham permission, like Thoreau before him, to build his “Earth-cabin” on the poet’s property at Walden Pond. Edmond Hotham’s sojourn at Walden Pond was the first and only time someone traveled to Walden Pond to emulate Thoreau’s experiment in simplicity. Hotham made his way to Walden Pond to pursue some “private business” while he was preparing for Christian ministry and stateside missionary work. He built his shanty on the pond’s shore about 100 yards in front of Thoreau’s, where he attempted to out-economize and out-simplify Thoreau. Hotham’s sojourn as the second “hermit” at Walden Pond exemplified the growing adulation of Henry David Thoreau and his literary work. Author Terry Barkley has gleaned archival sources, vital records, period newspaper accounts, and census rolls for everything that is known about Edmond Hotham.The Other “Hermit” of Thoreau’s Walden Pond is the first book-length treatise on Hotham, half of which is wholly new material. It far supersedes the late Kenneth Walter Cameron’s 1962 article on Hotham, which until now was the most complete study of the man. Barkley’s groundbreaking study book is an important addition to the Concord-Walden Pond story and a fascinating read. To quote Thoreau, “What is once well done is done forever.”

Pitchstone Publishing Life Driven Purpose: How an Atheist Finds Meaning
Book SynopsisEvery thinking person wants to lead a life of meaning and purpose. For thousands of years, holy books have told us that such a life is available only through obedience and submission to some higher power. Today, the faithful keep popular devotionals and tracts within easy reach on bedside tables and mobile devices, all communicating this common message: “Life is meaningless without God.” In this volume, former pastor Dan Barker eloquently, powerfully, and rationally upends this long-held belief. Offering words of enrichment, emancipation, and inspiration, he reminds us how millions of atheists lead happy, loving, moral, and purpose-filled lives. Practicing what he preaches, he also demonstrates through his own personal journey that life is valuable for its own sake—that meaning and purpose come not from above, but from within.Trade Review"A lovely book!" Richard Dawkins, author, The God Delusion"One of the biggest misconceptions about atheists is that without God they can have no morals, values, or meaning in their lives. In this lovely secular sermon, Dan Barker handily rebuts that claim, showing that true meaning and morality can come only from accepting our finitude, and dealing with it rationally and humanistically." Jerry Coyne, author, Why Evolution Is True"Dan Barker has cleverly reversed the arrows of purpose so they fly from the bows of life instead of raining down from an imaginary archer in the sky."

JCB Mohr (Paul Siebeck) Barmherzigkeit: Das Mitgefühl im Brennpunkt von
Book SynopsisIn pluralistischen Gesellschaften, aber auch in globalen Kontexten erhebt sich angesichts zunehmender Konflikte die drängende Frage nach kulturellen und religiösen Ressourcen für Toleranz und Verständigung. Vor diesem Hintergrund bieten pagane, jüdische, christliche, islamische und indologische Konzepte der Barmherzigkeit bzw. des Mitgefühls Deutungsangebote. In interreligiösen und interdisziplinären Zugängen wird in diesem Band religiös begründetes Mitgefühl auf seine eigentümliche Signatur, seine Konstitutionsbedingungen und irenischen Potentiale sowie auf deren Kritik und Grenzen hin untersucht. Dabei kommen insbesondere Perspektiven und Einsichten der neueren philosophisch-kulturwissenschaftlichen Emotionsforschung zur Geltung. Es werden Beiträge aus den Bereichen der klassischen Philologie, der jüdischen, christlichen und islamischen Theologien, der Indologie, der Philosophie, der Politik- und Rechtswissenschaft, der Pädagogik und Literaturwissenschaft geboten.

JCB Mohr (Paul Siebeck) Religionspädagogische Ökumenik: Weltweites
Book SynopsisDie Weitergabe und Aneignung christlicher Religion geschieht auf vielerlei Weise - nicht zuletzt durch Lehren und Lernen. Den Impuls dazu hat das Christentum durch Jesus den Lehrer aus den Gepflogenheiten des Judentums der Antike erhalten.Vor diesem Hintergrund unternimmt Bernd Schröder - erstmals - eine religionspädagogische "Weltreise" durch ausgewählte Länder und Konfessionskulturen der Gegenwart. Er skizziert so die Vielfalt der Lernkulturen unter dem Dach des weltweiten polyzentrischen Christentums. Sichtbar werden Handlungsformate und Lernorte von der Sonntagsschule bis zur Liturgie, von der christlichen Pfadfinder-Bewegung bis zur Basisgemeinde. Erkennbar werden unterschiedliche Begründungsmuster und Leitbilder von Bildung im Zeichen christlicher Religion.Die tour d'horizon bestätigt, dass Lehren und Lernen vielerorts eine enorme Rolle spielt. Allerdings kann keineswegs das gesamte Christentum unbesehen als Bildungsreligion gelten.

Bohlau Verlag Mit ihnen Mensch, fur sie Christ:
Book SynopsisAfter 1945, Catholicism in central Germany was shaped by flight and expulsion like nowhere else on the continent. Different cultural and religious influences met and challenged each other in a region that had experienced a predominantly Protestant influence in previous centuries. In addition, the atheistic socialism of the GDR made it difficult for Catholics to stand up for their faith in the country''s society without suffering disadvantages. This resulted in an area of conflict, the challenges of which are explained and analyzed in the present study. However, the book does not only want to provide a retrospective, but also to encourage the diaspora communities in the Diocese of Dresden-Meissen to continue on the path of the mission to the people and to be human with them and Christian for them.

Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht GmbH & Co KG Aus Gottes Hand: Der Status des menschlichen
Book SynopsisIst der menschliche Embryo schon eine Person? Die Möglichkeiten der Abtreibung und Reproduktionsmedizin, die Beseitigung des Embryos aus persönlichen Gründen oder sein Verbrauch um hochrangiger medizinischer Forschungsziele willen geben dieser Frage eine existentielle Brisanz, die nicht nur viele Menschen in Gewissenskonflikte stürzt, sondern an der sich leidenschaftlich geführte Diskussionen und öffentliche Proteste entzünden. Jürgen Boomgaarden gibt eine differenzierte Antwort auf die Embryonenstatusfrage aus evangelischer Sicht. Am Anfang steht die Erörterung biologischer, philosophischer, rechtlicher und soziologischer Erkenntnisse und Positionen zum Embryonenstatus. Das Buch untersucht die biologische Entwicklung des Embryos auf ihre statusrelevanten Einschnitte und würdigt besonders die Kernverschmelzung als möglicher personaler Anfang kritisch. Die sogenannten SKIP-Argumente (Spezies, Kontinuität, Identität, Potentialität) beleuchtet Jürgen Boomgaarden ebenso wie die soziologische Analyse des ungeborenen Lebens, die die gewandelte Bedeutung des Kindes und seiner Liebe zu ihm in der westlichen Gesellschaft reflektiert. Auf der Basis von evangelischen Positionen zur Embryonenstatusfrage skizziert der Autor eine eigene systematische Theologie des ungeborenen menschlichen Lebens und geht dabei auch auf die ethische Problematik der In-vitro-Fertilisation ein. Boomgaarden vermeidet einfache Antworten auf die Embryonenstatusfrage und entwickelt dennoch klare Entscheidungskriterien aus evangelischer Sicht.

Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht GmbH & Co KG Urteilen lernen -- Grundlegung und Kontexte
Book SynopsisCorrectly judging situations plays a large role in everyday life - it's not always easy to determine the right thing to do, and only then can one actually do the right thing: properly deciding between two or more possible alternatives.This volume shows the necessity of making a scientific analysis of the various ways of reaching ethical competence. It demonstrates the various forms and nature of judgment within a scientific-theological and interdisciplinary research context, having resulted from a common discourse of Christian and Jewish theology as well as jurisprudence. The basic questions are discussed and compared to the perspective about learning to judge that is not innate: Moral education demands positive and workable paths in which children and adolescents as well as adults can practice executing proper judgement. For this reason a number of example contexts with an ethical background - in education, worklife and the legal system - are examined in detail.
