This book is first of all an essay of political philosophy. This book is clear, straightforward, and comprehensive. It truly addresses the issue announced in the title. At the heart of this book is a comprehensive exposition of classic Just War doctrine going back to St. Augustine of Hippo and St Thomas Aquinas with a strong argument that these ancient principles have stood the test of time and should still be determinant of the ethics of warfare. Starting from the postulate that "preparing for war is the primary function of politics and combining the reflection of the officer and the Christian, his ambition is to "make people rediscover the (Christian) principles which should guide political action on the subject of war.

A Dictionary of English and French Equivalent Proverbs
Author: Teodor FlontaPublisher: DeProverbio.com
ISBN: 146590803X
Category : Foreign Language Study
Languages : en
Pages : 347
Book Description
This dictionary assembles 2,234 English proverbs and their French equivalents. Equivalent proverbs are those which express the same concept literally, such as “Love is blind” = “L’amour est aveugle” or with completely different words, such as “Every cloud has a silver lining” = “Dans toute chose il y a un bon côté.” The Dictionary is a very useful reference tool for scholars of the two languages, for researchers working in various associated fields such as linguistics, literature, folklore, anthropology, psychology, sociology, history, and for workers in newer areas such as advertising and contemporary media. The Dictionary is also of interest to diplomats and politicians who try to improve their communication by sharing ideas formulated in some common meaningful expressions; it will assist interpreters and translators, and teachers and students for whom it is important to understand not only what the target culture expresses in the same way as their own, but also what is formulated in a different way. The Dictionary is also of benefit to non-professionals who, for the sheer enjoyment of it, wish to savour the wisdom, wit, poetry and the colourful language of proverbs.
