Nietzsche says "good Europeans" must not only cultivate a
"supra-national" view, but also "supra-European" perspective to
transcend their European biases and see beyond the horizon of
Western culture. The volume takes up such conceptual frontier
crossings and syntheses. Emphasizing Nietzsche's genealogy of
European culture and his reflections upon the constitution of
Europe in the broadest sense, its essays examine peoples and
nations, values and arts, knowledge and religion. Nietzsche's
apprehensions about the crises of nihilism and decadence and their
implications for Europe's (and humankind's) future are investigated
in this context. Concerning the crossing of notional frontiers,
contributors examine Nietzsche's hoped-for dismantling of Europe's
state borders, the overcoming of national prejudices and rivalries,
and the propagation of a revitalizing "supra-European" perspective
on the continent, its culture(s) and future. They also illuminate
lines of syntheses, notably the syncretism of the ancient Greeks
and its possible example for the European culture to-be. Finally
certain of Europe's current problems are considered via the
critical apparatus furnished by Nietzsche's philosophy and the
diagnostic tools it provides.
The funeral culture has undergone a radical change in recent years.
He expresses himself a. in a differentiation of the ways of burial
and in a pluralization of attitudes to questions of life and death.
Life-world research makes an indispensable contribution - also for
church activities - to understanding the change process in our
society and the life-specific religious attitudes of people. The
book is divided into two parts: In the first part, essential
aspects of church funeral activities are reflected and the change
in the funeral culture is placed in different scientific horizons.
The second part contains a manual that offers concrete suggestions
for the organization of an evangelical funeral service for each of
the ten Sinus milieus and also takes the preparatory and subsequent
steps into consideration. The aim of the book is to provide
practical impulses for milieu-sensitive communication of the gospel
in the context of the burial.
