Book Description
The first edition of the Ens Thesis was published in 2008, exactly on the author's birthday. At that time, there were no images from the James Webb Space Telescope, and everything seemed to be in order for science. Since the beginning of the assumption of a Big Bang, there have been those who could not reconcile with this idea. The author of this book, who was a long-time supporter of the Big Bang theory, also began to have serious doubts and started a piece of work that accompanied him for several years. It was not enough for the author to simply be justified against the Big Bang; he wanted to work out for himself how the cosmos could have originated alternatively. It was only when he understood that the question of a beginning might be the completely wrong question that everything moved in the right direction mentally. After the publication of the uncorrected and unedited first edition, the Ens Thesis divided the public. Some found the approach exciting and praised it, while others mocked it but could not find any devastating counterarguments. In 2015, the author published the second edition, which was better corrected, formatted, and edited. In 2018, a supplemented third edition was published. When the first images from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) were released on July 11, 2022, the author could not believe his eyes and ears! What these images showed corresponded exactly to what should be seen according to the assumptions of the Ens Thesis. After wiping away a few tears of joy, the author understood that his work was far more than the confused ideas of an autodidact. This fourth edition has been freed from a few more errors and supplemented with the crucial part about the deep field images and their implications for the assumption of a Big Bang. Those who have already read the third edition of the Ens Thesis will only receive these new additions. This is mentioned here out of decency and fair play. The name of the thesis has also changed. The formerly lowercase "ens" is now represented as "Ens" in the overall name Ens Thesis. Anyone who has never read the Ens Thesis and is not familiar with any of the previous publications will now be presented with the fruitful result of a long and hard journey! Enjoy and have an exciting read!

The New England Mind
Author: Perry Miller
Publisher: Harvard University Press
ISBN: 9780674613065
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 546
Book Description
The late Perry Miller once stated, "I have been compelled to insist that the mind of man is the basic factor in human history," and his study of the mind in America has shaped the thought of three decades of scholars. The fifteen essays here collected--several of them previously unpublished--address themselves to facets of the American consciousness and to their expression in literature from the time of the Cambridge Agreement to the Nobel Prize acceptance speeches of Hemingway and Faulkner. A companion volume to "Errand into the Wilderness," its general theme is one adumbrated in Mr. Miller's two-volume masterpiece, "The New England Mind"--the thrust of civilization into the vast, empty continent and its effect upon Americans' concept of themselves as "nature's nation." The essays first concentrate on Puritan covenant theology and its gradual adaptation to changing conditions in America: the decline in zeal for a "Bible commonwealth," the growth of trade and industy, and the necessity for coexisting with large masses of unchurched people. As the book progresses, the emphasis shifts from religion to the philosophy of nature to the development of an original literature, although Mr. Miller is usually analyzing simultaneously all three aspects of the American quest for self-identity. In the final essays, he shows how the forces that molded the self-conscious articulateness of the early New Englanders still operate in the work of contemporary American writers. The introduction to this collection is by Kenneth Murdock, Francis Lee Higginson Professor of English Literature, Emeritus, Harvard University, who, with Perry Miller and Samuel Eliot Morison, accomplished what has been called "one of the great historical re-evaluations of this generation."

The Redemption
Author: Bernard Lonergan
Publisher: University of Toronto Press
ISBN: 1487519656
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 716
Book Description
Thematically focused on the theology of redemption or what is called in theology "soteriology," each of the two sections of The Redemption addresses biblical literature and significant moments in the history of Christian theology, and especially the work of Anselm of Canterbury. The second part of the book presents a significant treatment of the problem of good and evil, and introduces the important category of cultural evil. Most significant from the standpoint of Lonergan's original contribution is the treatment accorded in both Part 1 and Part 2 to what he calls "the just and mysterious law of the cross." The treatment of biblical literature contains a valuable distinction between "redemption as end" and "redemption as medium." Beginning with theses 15-17 from Lonergan's Collected Works, The Incarnate Word, this volume also includes rare and never-before-published texts originally written in the late 1950s.

Publisher: Indiana University Press
ISBN: 0253013267
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 431
Book Description
An “excellent translation” of an essential text by the author of Being and Time, in which he continues his pioneering work in phenomenology (Times Literary Supplement, UK). A lecture course that Martin Heidegger gave in 1927, The Basic Problems of Phenomenology continues and extends explorations begun in Being and Time. In this text, Heidegger provides the general outline of his thinking about the fundamental problems of philosophy, which he treats by means of phenomenology, and which he defines and explains as the basic problem of ontology. “For all students and scholars, Basic Problems will provide the “missing link” between Husserl and Heidegger, between phenomenology and Being and Time.” —Teaching Philosophy
