Description

Church discipline and the Reformed consistory, whether in Hungary, the Swiss world, France, The Netherlands or the British Isles, have become the subject of intense scholarly discussion. The fifteen essays gathered in this volume examine the process of censure and excommunication across Europe from the mid-sixteenth through the late eighteenth centuries. They reevaluate the relationship of women to ecclesiastical authority and explore the complex ways in which exclusion from the Lord s Supper operated. Several contributors trace the decrease in excommunication over time; others underscore national differences in its nature and the surprising infrequency of application. Together, they offer a fresh, unanticipated and illuminating portrait of the reform of morals associated with John Calvin and his followers. Les disciplines ecclesiastiques et les consistoire reformes aussi bien en Hongrie, que dans le monde Suisse, la France, les Pays-Bas ou les Iles britanniques, ont fait l'objet d'intenses debats universitaires. Les quinze textes reunis dans ce volume examinent les processus de censure et d'excommunication pratiques dans toute l'Europe depuis le milieu du XVIe siecle jusqu'a la fin du XVIIIe siecle. Ils reexaminent les positions des femmes face a l'autorite ecclesiastique et explorent les differentes manieres de concevoir et d'appliquer l'exclusion de la Cene. Plusieurs contributeurs decrivent la diminution de la pratique de l'excommunication au fil du temps, d'autres soulignent les differences nationales dans sa nature et les surprenantes variations de son application. Tous offrent un nouveau portrait, inattendu et eclairant, de la reforme de la morale associee a Jean Calvin et ses successeurs. Contributors are Edwin Bezzina, Serge Brunet, Philippe Chareyre, Christian Grosse, Robert M. Kingdon, Suzannah Lipscomb, Michelle Magdelaine, Francoise Moreil, Graeme Murdock, Judith Pollmann, Didier Poton, Salomon Rizzo, Andrew Spicer, Karen Spierling, Nicole Staremberg Goy, and Margo Todd."

Professional Linux kernel architecture ''Wrox programmer to programmer''--Cover. - ''What you are reading right now is the result of an evolution over more than seven years: After two years of writing, the first edition was published in German by Carl Hanser Verlag in 2003. It then described kernel 2.6.0. The test was used as a basis for the low-level design documentation for the EAL4+ security evaluation of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, requiring to update it to kernel 2.6.18 (if the EAL acronym does not mean anything to you, then Wikipedia is once more your friend). Hewlett-Packard sponsored the translation into English and has, thankfully, granted the rights to publish the result. Updates to kernel 2.6.24 were then performed specifically for this book''--P. ix
