Wayne Coppins shared this announcement. He writes<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\n

The newly founded international open access journal \u201cJournal of Ethics in Antiquity and Christianity (JEAC)\u201d (available at\u00a0www.jeac.de<\/a>) provides a platform for specialized research in ancient ethics with a particular focus on its impact and interdependence with the development of Christian ethics. It attempts to establish a dialogue between biblical, classical, Judaistic and patristic research on the one hand, and philosophical and theological approaches on the other. Thus, the journal opens up opportunities for interaction between the ethical traditions of antiquity \u2013 including the origins of Christian ethics \u2013 and current ethical discourses. The journal is edited and published by the research center \u201cEthics in Antiquity and Christianity\u201c (www.ethikmainz.de<\/a>) at Mainz university.<\/span><\/p>\n

The first issue, out now, is dedicated to the reflection on the hermeneutical challenges of the venture itself, and features essays and articles by Jan Assmann, William Schweiker, John J. Collins, Adela Yarbro Collins, Robert Brawley, Wolfram Kinzig, and Christoph Jedan. The second issue will look at the role of emotion in ancient and contemporary ethics. Further open issues are planned, and contributions are welcome. In addition to peer reviewed essays and articles, the journal has a \u201edialogue-\u201esection, one for reviews and miscellae, and encourages contributions on ethical theories and issues in antiquity and the present.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

In the same post<\/a> Wayne also highlights a recent publication that is likely to be of interest. And if you are at all interested in or dependent on reading academic publications in German, Wayne\u2019s blog is one that you\u2019ll want to follow, since he has worked extensively as a translator of New Testament scholarship, and his blog offers regular posts aimed at helping those who are working on learning or improving their German. But those same posts are also useful to those who may not be trying to learn the language, but are interested in getting small snippets of translation offered to them.<\/p>\n

For those wanting to work on their translation or comprehension skills, here is the information about the new journal in German<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Die Open Access Zeitschrift \u201eJournal of Ethics in Antiquity and Christianity (JEAC)\u201c\u00a0<\/em>etabliert einen Dialog zwischen exegetischen, judaistischen und patristischen Beitr\u00e4gen mit philosophischen und systematisch-theologischen Ans\u00e4tzen zu gegenwartsrelevanten ethischen Fragestellungen und bringt damit die ethischen Dimensionen antiker Texte in die gegenw\u00e4rtigen Ethikdiskurse ein. Ethische Frage\u00adstellungen ziehen sich nicht nur gegenw\u00e4rtig quer durch die verschiedenen Wissenschaften, sondern waren bereits in der Antike in vielen Kontexten pr\u00e4sent. Die Art der Bearbeitung ethischer Thematiken in Texten der Antike erbringt f\u00fcr die Gegenwart weit \u00fcber das Verst\u00e4ndnis der eigenen Tradition hinaus methodische und inhaltliche Impulse. Es wird aber weder den Texten noch dem gegenw\u00e4rtigen Diskurs gerecht, wenn der Beitrag der antiken Texte nur in Form von einzelnen Argumenten oder Motiven aus der Vergangenheit in die Gegenwart \u00fcbertragen wird. Es bedarf einer sorgf\u00e4ltigen Explikation der ethischen Dimensionen biblischer und au\u00dferbiblischer Texte aus ihren antiken Kontexten und Diskurskonstellationen heraus, um diese in ihnen angemessener Weise zur Sprache zu bringen.<\/p>\n

Dieser Vielstimmigkeit der Zeiten und Disziplinen wird das\u00a0\u201eJournal of Ethics in Antiquity and Christianity\u201c<\/em>\u00a0durch die Vielfalt der vertretenen Fachdisziplinen und Textformen gerecht: Jede Ausgabe stellt zu einer spezifischen ethischen Fragestellung Artikel aus verschiedenen theologischen und nicht-theologischen Disziplinen mit einem Dialog zweiter kontr\u00e4rer Positionen, Miszellen und Rezensionen zusammen. Um die Ergebnisse f\u00fcr den ethischen Diskurs der Gegenwart in breitem Rahmen verf\u00fcgbar zu machen, erscheint das Journal als Open Access-Ver\u00f6ffentlichung. Die Artikel werden auf Anfrage durch das Herausgebergremium in deutscher oder englischer Sprache verfasst und durchlaufen ein doppeltes Peer Review, das die Qualit\u00e4t und interdisziplin\u00e4re Verst\u00e4ndlichkeit der Beitr\u00e4ge f\u00f6rdert.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
