Religious stories in transformation : conflict, revision and reception /
:
In Religious Stories in Transformation: Conflict, Revision and Reception , the editors present a collection of essays that reveal both the many similarities and the poignant differences between ancient myths in Judaism, Christianity, Islam, and modern secular culture and how these stories were incorporated and adapted over time. This rich multidisciplinary research demonstrates not only how stories in different religions and cultures are interesting in their own right, but also that the process of transformation in particular deserves scholarly interest. It is through the changes in the stories that the particular identity of each religion comes to the fore most strikingly.

Against the "Law of the Father" : Hegel's Disobedient Readings /
:
Why discuss disobedience in relation to Hegel? The answer lies in how his philosophy, particularly through his interpretation of Antigone, has sparked debates about the tension between individual choice and societal norms, and how feminist thought has challenged Hegelian traditions. Hegel's recognition of Antigone's disobedience as a necessary yet tragic act demonstrates his acknowledgement of the individual's role in shaping history beyond societal laws. However, Hegel didn't fully explore the conflict between nature (Antigone's personal choice) and culture (the laws of the community), which was later emphasized by feminist scholars such as Irigaray and de Beauvoir, who argued against patriarchal interpretations of Hegel's philosophy and promoted a critical re-reading. In doing so, they rejected the rigid universalism of Hegel's system in favor of an understanding and practice of difference. This volume focuses on how disobedience to Hegel allows for new interpretation.

How to make our signs clear : C.S. Peirce and semiotics /
:
How to Make Our Signs Clear is the result of an international cooperation between European and Brazilian Peircean scholars (I. A. Ibri, E. Višňovský, C. Paolucci and others) and strives to dispel simplifications of Peirce´s semiotic as well as to collect various insights into it and into its consequences for philosophy, especially philosophy of language, pragmatism and epistemology. The central theme of this book is the notion of the sign as a specific triadic relational unit, treated from various perspectives and applied to various fields of philosophy: semeiotic knowledge grows up from the discussions, common interests and possible conflicts between the readers of Peirce´s works. This book does not offer a general overview of Peirce´s theory of signs, but rather various analyses of consequences of some capacities of his semiotic.

A History of Hegelianism in Golden Age Denmark, Tome II : The Martensen Period: 1837-1841, 2nd Revised and Augmented Edition /
:
This is the second volume in a three-volume work dedicated to exploring the influence of G.W.F. Hegel's philosophical thinking in Golden Age Denmark. The work demonstrates that the largely overlooked tradition of Danish Hegelianism played a profound and indeed constitutive role in many spheres of the Golden Age culture. This second tome treats the most intensive period in the history of the Danish Hegel reception, namely, the years from 1837 to 1841. The main figure in this period is the theologian Hans Martensen who made Hegel's philosophy a sensation among the students at the University of Copenhagen in the late 1830s. This period also includes the publication of Johan Ludvig Heiberg's Hegelian journal, Perseus , and Frederik Christian Sibbern's monumental review of it, which represented the most extensive treatment of Hegel's philosophy in the Danish language at the time. During this period Hegel's philosophy flourished in unlikely genres such as drama and lyric poetry. During these years Hegelianism enjoyed an unprecedented success in Denmark until it gradually began to be perceived as a dangerous trend.
