After all, even if glass is fragile, it lasts a long time if it is preserved, and you find goblets that belonged to grandfathers and great-grandfathers, from which grandsons and great-grandsons are drinking today. Such fragility, if protected, can reach a great age. But as for us human beings, not only do we walk around in our fragility among so many daily hazards, but even if sudden accidents do not happen, we are still not capable of living a long time." 2000-01-01T00:00:00Z The language of universal salvation in Romans /library/oar/handle/123456789/31901 2018-07-19T01:30:32Z 2000-01-01T00:00:00Z Title: The language of universal salvation in Romans Abstract: One cannot begin to investigate the source of the Apostle Paul's theology without taking into account his Iudaeo-Hellenistic milieu. What was the formative culture that Paul imbibed? For instance, one dares not delve into the plan and mind of Paul by studying only his Hebrew origins, for it would be wholly inexplicable to do so without a consideration of his Hellenistic education. It is a question of degree: for one must take care not to overemphasize the Greek element in his education, since his writings reveal no cognizance of the higher literature. 2000-01-01T00:00:00Z Nietzsche, communication and the possibility of emancipation Mangion, Claude /library/oar/handle/123456789/31899 2021-02-08T15:19:04Z 2000-01-01T00:00:00Z Title: Nietzsche, communication and the possibility of emancipation Authors: Mangion, Claude Abstract: Communication has become an increasingly discussed concept in postmodernity. While commentators agree on the value of the concept, there is a wide range of views on the consequences of the concept: Vattimo sees communication as heralding a new type of society based on transparency,l while Habermas sees communication as a form of action with the potential for emancipation. In this paper, I will be questioning the possibility of the latter: to do this I will first examine Nietzsche's views on communication; then I will examine Nietzsche's use of communication as a critique of consciousness; finally offer a critical analysis of Habermas' s project of communicative action in the light of the Nietzschean critique of communication. 2000-01-01T00:00:00Z
