Literary Genre and Degrees of Saintliness: The Perception of Holiness in Writings by and About Female MysticsIndexThis volume discusses, from an historical and literary angle, the ways in which sanctification and the inscription of saintliness take place. Going beyond the traditional categories of canonization, cult, liturgical veneration and hagiographical lives, the work raises fundamental issues concerning definitions of saints and saintliness in a period before the concept was crystallized in canon law. As well as discussing sources and methodology, contributions cover contextual issues, including relics and veneration, life and the afterlife, and examinations of specific sources and texts.

Bibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph0-19-991975-5 Includes bibliographical references and index.1Introduction3 --2Antireductionism and the Natural Order13 --3Consciousness35 --4Cognition71 --5Value97 --6Conclusion127.In Mind and Cosmos Thomas Nagel argues that the widely accepted world view of materialist naturalism is untenable. The mind-body problem cannot be confined to the relation between animal minds and animal bodies. If materialism cannot accommodate consciousness and other mind-related aspects of reality, then we must abandon a purely materialist understanding of nature in general, extending to biology, evolutionary theory, and cosmology. Since minds are features ofbiological systems that have developed through evolution, the standard materialist version of evolutionary biology is fundamentally incomplete. And the cosmological history that led to the origin of life and the coming into existence of the conditions for evolution cannot be a merely materialist history. An adequateconception of nature would have to explain the appearance in the universe of materially irreducible conscious minds, as such. No such explanation is available, and the physical sciences, including molecular biology, cannot be expected to provide one. The book explores these problems through a general treatment of the obstacles to reductionism, with more specific application to the phenomena of consciousness, cognition, and value. The conclusion is that physics cannot be the theory ofeverything.CosmologyCosmogonyBeginningCreationSciencePhilosophyCosmology.Cosmogony.Beginning.Creation.SciencePhilosophy.113Nagel Thomas1937-25897MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910786263503321Mind and cosmos3733570UNINA
