Karl Rahner
Karl Rahner's (1904-84) creative proposals in theological areas made him one of the giants of 20th-century theology.

The Vows of Religious Life in a Secular Society
This book investigates religious vows, shedding light on the type of faith that can sustain humanity in secular times. It examines the personal impact of religious life as well as its potential to foster a sense of completeness within society at large. Unbelief in today's society can be partially rooted in the shallowness of the sort of religion that the secular can abandon. Such a religion, characterized as magical, shallow, illusory, or rooted solely in external rituals, lacks the depth required to thrive in a secular society. It fails to address the profound aspects of human existence, the authentic freedom of the spirit, and the enduring obedience of faith. This study of religious vows u...
In Solidarity with the Earth
Based on case studies, the book creates a multidisciplinary conversation on the gendered vulnerabilities resulting from extractive industries and toxic pollution, and also charts the resilience and courage of women as they resist polluting industries, fight for clean water and seek to protect the land. While ecumenical in scope, the book takes its departure from the concept of integral ecology introduced in Pope Francis' encyclical Laudato Si'. The first three sections of the book focus on the social and ecological challenges facing minoritized women and their communities that are related to mining, pollutants and biodiversity loss, and toxicity. The final section of the book focuses on the ...

¿Quién es Dios?
En un mundo gobernado por la duda, el desconcierto y la inconsistencia moral, el ser humano se sigue enfrentando a las preguntas más profundas y desafiantes: ¿Existe Dios? ¿Quién es realmente? ¿Cómo se puede llegar a Él? ¿La existencia del sufrimiento y del mal es compatible con la idea de la divinidad? En la majestuosidad de algunos templos, en las notas de una sinfonía o en la belleza de unos versos… a Dios lo podemos encontrar en cualquier sitio, pero entonces… ¿por qué la religiosidad parece desvanecerse en el mundo actual? Este libro es un faro en la oscuridad de la incertidumbre, que trata de dar respuesta a las inquietudes que han removido desde tiempos remotos las conc...

Grieving Pregnancy
In Grieving Pregnancy: Memorializing Loss in Japanese Buddhism and American Catholicism, Maureen L. Walsh compares how the two religious traditions respond ritually and discursively to miscarriage, stillbirth, and abortion experiences marked by grief for the women involved. The experience of pregnancy loss has always been a part of women’s lives, yet only recently has it garnered attention from religious leaders and scholars commensurate with its prevalence. This book examines pregnancy loss as a theological problem for both Buddhism and Catholicism and analyzes the rites and memorials that have developed to address it, such as Japanese Buddhist mizuko kuyō (water children rites) and emergent American Catholic memorial practices focused on pregnancy loss. These parallel practices have emerged within distinct religious landscapes—a fact reflected in their forms and purposes—and when considered together, they raise questions of keen interest to theological and religious studies about the goals of religious practice and the imagination of human life at its earliest stages.
