Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -The Bodhisatvapi¿aka ('The Collection of the Bodhisattvas') is a middle-period Mah¿y¿na s¿tra, edited here for the first time in Sanskrit. It probably represents an early attempt to produce a consistent and complete exposition of the Mah¿y¿na as it became popular around the beginning the Common Era. The codex unicus presented here in a diplomatic edition, with corrections in the notes, dates from the 9th century CE and is currently kept in Lhasa. The Bodhisatvapi¿aka explains the main doctrines and concepts of Mah¿y¿na Buddhism. The work contains an unusually large number of frame stories in the form of j¿taka, avad¿na, and vy¿karäa. In contradistinction to other Mah¿y¿na s¿tras, the Bodhisatvapi¿aka extols monastic ideals, with a layman as the main protagonist whose aim is monkhood. As an editio princeps, this publication represents a milestone for the study of Mah¿y¿na Buddhism. 354 pp. Englisch.

Soft cover. Condición: New. "Papers from a symposium held at the University of Oslo, November 1995." Description: 235 pagina's : illustraties ; 24 cm. Contents: Symbols in the phenomenology of Alfred Schutz related to cultures / Leif Ahnstrøm -- The function of religious rites in creating and sustaining the "meaning" of symbols / Jens Braarvig -- The weighing of the heart / Saphinaz-Amal Naguib -- The symbolic universe of the Middle Ages / Trond Berg Eriksen -- The breaking of the circle / Per Strømholm -- Flying, falling / Kristin Gjerpe -- From passion to possessiveness / Bjarne Rogan -- The Swiss building style in Norway and its messages to the surroundings / Arne Lie Christensen -- "The Haugean heritage" / Arne Bugge Amundsen. 'An Explorative Study This volume gives an introduction to many of the liveliest debates on the nature of symbols, an often confusing concept in the field of cultural theory. It consists of the contributions to a symposium arranged by the Department of Cultural Studies at the University of Oslo which took place in Rome in 1995. The contributors are all scholars of this department and approach their chosen topic from the varying angles of history of ideas, history of comparative religions, folklore and ethnology. The readers are thus offered an exiting menu of different theories and methods, which all coincide in the effort to elucidate the role of symbols and symbolism in ancient and modern cultures. A common ground will be found in the idea that symbols are inherently unstable and subject to change, constanly developing new layers of meaning during the historical process of cultural change.'.

Hardback. Condición: New. This introduction to human dignity explores the history of the notion from antiquity to the nineteenth century, and the way in which dignity is conceptualised in non-Western contexts. Building on this, it addresses a range of systematic conceptualisations, considers the theoretical and legal conditions for human dignity as a useful notion and analyses a number of philosophical and conceptual approaches to dignity. Finally, the book introduces current debates, paying particular attention to the legal implementation, human rights, justice and conflicts, medicine and bioethics, and provides an explicit systematic framework for discussing human dignity. Adopting a wide range of perspectives and taking into account numerous cultures and contexts, this handbook is a valuable resource for students, scholars and professionals working in philosophy, law, history and theology.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Das Tocharische, ein erst im letzten Jahrhundert entdeckter Hauptsprachzweig der indogermanischen Sprachfamilie, dessen Sprecher am Rande der Seidenstrasse im zentralasiatischen Tarim-Becken lebten und der Ende des 1. Jahrtausends n. Chr. ausstarb, gewinnt in den letzten Jahrzehnten in der historisch-vergleichenden indogermanischen Sprachwissenschaft zunehmend an Bedeutung. Der rasante Fortschritt in der sprachhistorischen Erschliessung des Tocharischen hat in vielen Fallen zu einer Revision von Entwicklung und Rekonstruktion der indogermanischen Grammatik gefuhrt. Viele Studien aus jungerer Zeit haben eine Anzahl wahrscheinlicher Archaismen in Lexikon, Morphologie und Syntax aufgedeckt, die mitunter noch einen Zustand konservieren, der alter ist als der, der vom Griechischen und Indoiranischen reflektiert wird. Der vorliegende Band vereint eine Serie von Vortragen, die anlasslich der Ringvorlesung "Indogermanische Sprachen und Kulturen an der Seidenstrasse" im Sommersemester 2009 an der Ludwig-Maximilians-Universitat Munchen von fuhrenden Vertretern des Faches gehalten wurden und der Frage sprachlicher Archaismen und Innovationen des tocharischen Sprachzweiges gewidmet sind. In ihren Ergebnissen demonstrieren die Beitrage die Brisanz und wachsende Bedeutung des tocharischen Sprachzweigs fur die Indogermanistik. Sie behandeln viele thematische Brennpunkte der indogermanistischen Diskussion vergangener Jahrzehnte wie z. B. die Entwicklung der nominalen Genera des Indogermanischen, die Entwicklung des indogermanischen Verbalsystems und der Kasusfunktionen. After decades of relative neglect, the Tocharian languages are assuming an increasingly prominent role in Indo-European studies. The enormous progress in Tocharian historical phonology and morphology since the 1960s has called into question the longstanding perception of this branch as an aberrant offshoot, of little importance for the reconstruction of Proto-Indo-European. Recent studies, particularly of the verb but also of the noun, phonology, and lexicon, have uncovered a number of probable archaisms, reflecting an older state of affairs than that reconstructible on the basis of the classical Indo-European languages alone. New progress in Tocharian paleography has also led to a greatly improved understanding of the evolution of Tocharian B, and the stages of the language represented in our surviving documents. The present volume arose from a series of lectures delivered in 2009 on the theme of "Indo-European Languages and Cultures on the Silk Road" at the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universitat Munich, together with contributions from other leading names in Tocharian linguistics. The papers included here treat problems of Tocharian grammar which are of direct relevance for the reconstruction of Proto-Indo-European, and for determining the place of Tocharian among the Indo-European languages. They demonstrate the importance of Tocharian for some of the most intensely discussed problems of contemporary Indo-European linguistics, such as the prehistory of the collective and feminine, nominal derivation and ablaut, or the reconstruction of the verbal system. After decades of relative neglect, the Tocharian languages are assuming an increasingly prominent role in Indo-European studies.
