浪漫派的将来之神 豆瓣
作者: [美] 弗兰克 译者: 李双志 华东师范大学出版社 2011 - 3
弗兰克是政治思想史家,以研究西方启蒙运动以后的政治思想著称,先后任教于瑞士日内瓦大学哲学系和德国图宾根大学哲学系。上世纪70年代末,他在图宾根大学作了题为Der kommende Gott(正在到来之神)的演讲一副题为“关于新神话学的系列讲座”,剖析启蒙运动以后各国思想界出现的新神话观念的政治含义及其与古希腊宗教的关系,指出以“理性精神”来标示现代精神是片面的,“神话精神”同样是现代精神的标志。这次演讲堪称20世纪后半期为数不多的著名学术讲座之一,本书即为其全部十一讲之结集。
基督教与古希腊一罗马古典传统的关系是西方思想史上的枢纽性问题。本丛编旨在积累两类文献:一,历代基督教神学要著(教父时期、中古时期、近代时期和现代时期),我们将会看到,这些论著与古希腊罗马的古典传统或多或少有这样或那样的关系;二,西方学界的基督教思想传统的现代研究成果。编译者期望这套丛编能够有助于我国学界的基督教思想史研究进入西方大传统的纵深,搞清基督教与“异教”之间复杂的思想关系。

为什么伐楼那和美杜莎头上都有蛇,而造人的女娲也长着蛇的身体?
盘古死去,泰坦神被宙斯关起来,尤弥尔被奥丁和索尔杀掉,创世神必须要死吗?
三星堆的巨大青铜树与巴别塔、北欧神话的雨格德拉西尔有无关系?

狱中书简 豆瓣
Letters and papers from prison
9.1 (7 个评分) 作者: (德) 迪特里希·朋霍费尔 译者: 高师宁 四川人民出版社 2003 - 4
本书是朋霍费尔思考与追求的人生当中留下的最后一部名著。作者不仅面对绞刑架,而且背负十字架;不仅身陷单人囚室,而且置身世俗世界。他对人的生存和本质等问题所作的超乎监狱围墙的思考,决定了这本书不同于其他的“监狱文学”或“死囚文学”,它不仅仅是“监狱文学”,也可以说是“监狱哲学”或“监狱神学 ”。 “这是一位卓越的德国神学家最后的遗著,他正视了在20世纪成为一名基督徒的难题,并且在纳粹手中成了一名烈士。”
在备受折磨和凌辱的牢狱生活中,朋霍费尔早已预料到了自己的死亡,并无比平静地面对死神的到来。他的文字达到了朴实和真实的极致,因为他的心灵也达到了朴实和真实的极致。

Religion for Atheists: A Non-believer's Guide to the Uses of Religion
7.7 (41 个评分) 作者: (英)阿兰·德波顿 译者: 梅俊杰 上海译文出版社 2012 - 5
尽力去证明上帝是不存在的,不过是许多无神论者的兴趣所在,但是真正的问题不是在于上帝到底存不存在,而是在于一旦假设他不存在,人类将如何自处。《写给无神论者的宗教》主题在于一个人即使是一个无信仰者,但是他也能发现宗教是有用的、有趣的并且给人带来安慰的 。在这部刺激的完全属于作者首创的并且即将面临着争议的作品中,德波顿认为世俗的人们可以从与宗教有着千丝万缕联系的道德、艺术和教育等等领域中去学得一些东西。在这本书中,德尽力去淡化和消弥宗教中教条主义的一面,摄取了宗教中能够安慰怀疑论者当下思想的一面,让人们去感受美丽和睿智的东西。

The Language of God 豆瓣
作者: Francis S. Collins Free Press 2007 - 7
Dr. Francis Collins, head of the Human Genome Project, is one of the world's leading scientists. He works at the cutting edge of the study of DNA, the code of life. Yet he is also a man of unshakable faith in God and scripture. Dr. Collins believes that faith in God and faith in science can coexist within a person and be harmonious. In The Language of God he makes his case for God and for science. He has heard every argument against faith from scientists, and he can refute them. He has also heard the needless rejection of scientific truths by some people of faith, and he can counter that, too. He explains his own journey from atheism to faith, and then takes readers for a stunning tour of modern science to show that physics, chemistry, and biology can all fit together with belief in God and the Bible. The Language of God is essential reading for anyone who wonders about the deepest questions of faith: Why are we here? How did we get here? What does life mean?

The King's Two Bodies 豆瓣
作者: Ernst H. Kantorowicz Princeton University Press 1997
In 1957 Ernst Kantorowicz published a book that would be the guide for generations of scholars through the arcane mysteries of medieval political theology. In The King's Two Bodies, Kantorowicz traces the historical problem posed by the "King's two bodies"--the body politic and the body natural--back to the Middle Ages and demonstrates, by placing the concept in its proper setting of medieval thought and political theory, how the early-modern Western monarchies gradually began to develop a "political theology."
The king's natural body has physical attributes, suffers, and dies, naturally, as do all humans; but the king's other body, the spiritual body, transcends the earthly and serves as a symbol of his office as majesty with the divine right to rule. The notion of the two bodies allowed for the continuity of monarchy even when the monarch died, as summed up in the formulation "The king is dead. Long live the king."
Bringing together liturgical works, images, and polemical material, The King's Two Bodies explores the long Christian past behind this "political theology." It provides a subtle history of how commonwealths developed symbolic means for establishing their sovereignty and, with such means, began to establish early forms of the nation-state.
Kantorowicz fled Nazi Germany in 1938, after refusing to sign a Nazi loyalty oath, and settled in the United States. While teaching at the University of California, Berkeley, he once again refused to sign an oath of allegiance, this one designed to identify Communist Party sympathizers. He resigned as a result of the controversy and moved to the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, where he remained for the rest of his life, and where he wrote The King's Two Bodies.
