Book Description
The Questiones libri Porphirii is a commentary on Porphyry's Isagoge by the fourteenth-century logician Thomas Manlevelt. It is edited here in full. Not much is known of Thomas Manlevelt, but his work is remarkable enough. Following in the footsteps of William of Ockham, Manlevelt stresses the individual nature of all things existing in the outside world. He radically challenges our conceptional framework. He applies Ockham's razor in a ruthless manner to do away with all entities not deemed necessary for preservation. In the end, Manlevelt even maintains that substance does not exist. In this text early Ockhamism is being pushed to its extremes.

Relinquenda
Author: Alexandra Regalado
Publisher: Beacon Press
ISBN: 0807007110
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 98
Book Description
A 4-part poetry collection that explores women’s roles in familial dynamics, immigration, and El Salvador’s civil war while reflecting on the death of the poet’s father A National Poetry Series winner, selected by the celebrated poet Reginald Dwayne Betts When COVID-19 broke and the United States closed the border to travel, Alexandra Lytton Regalado was separated from family back in El Salvador. She wrote Relinquenda entirely during lockdown as a meditation on cancer, the passing of her father, and the renewed significance of community. The central part of the collection focuses on her father during his 6-year struggle with cancer and considers how his stoicism, alcoholism, and hermitage might serve as mirror and warning. In contrast, she dedicates other poems to what it means for daughters, mothers, and wives to care for another as reflected in her relationships with the men in her life. Situated in the tropical landscapes of Miami, Florida and El Salvador, the poems also negotiate the meaning of home, reflecting on immigration and the ties between United States and El Salvador 30 years after her birth country’s decade-long civil war. In a lyrical and often bilingual voice, Regalado explores the impermanence and the body, communication and inarticulation, and the need to let go in order to heal regrets.

Against Adimantus, disciple of Manichaeus
Author: St. Augustine of Hippo
Publisher: Dalcassian Press
ISBN:
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 111
Book Description
Adda, also referenced in Latin as Adimantus, was one of Mani's earliest followers and an exegentical writer commenting on the Greek scriptures and Mani's psalms. The preliminary diffusion of Mani's revelation into the late Roman empire was advocated by his disciple Adda, which St. Augustine would have been familiar with from his time among them as an acolyte. This polemic by St. Augustine would help clarify both the Catholic position in response to Manichean claims, but also help to extinguish the religion amongst intellectual circles in the West. Moreover, the questions posed by Adda about challenges to thew Hebrew Scriptures by the Manicheans would be preserved here for posterity, even as the religion of Mani would totally disappear from the world's religious landscape.
