Sociological Aspect

This article deals with the resonance theory of the German sociologist Hartmut Rosa, which has aroused a lot of interest among scholars in the humanities and social sciences, including researchers in the field of religion. The article focuses on its importance for religion, particularly the science of religion and hope. The author presents Rosa’s theory first from the anthropological and sociological aspect. He then turns to Rosa’s understanding of religion. On this basis, the author draws his conclusions, which are as follows: The main significance of the resonance theory for religion and the science of religion is in the rehabilitation of religion as an anthropological constant. It follows that Rosa’s theory of resonance is an important contribution to substantiating the importance of religion and supporting its cultivation. Secondly, Rosa’s theory is an important contribution and support to the flourishing of hope due to its scientific support for religion. Another contribution of Rosa’s theory to hope is that it helps us understand the connection between resonance, existential hope, and meaning, and thus contributes to our being more successful in developing existential hope and discovering the meaning of our lives and world. This is important for our quality of life.

Science Of Religion

German sociologist Hartmut Rosa has developed an integral resonance theory, which is a theory of our relationship to the world. This theory has aroused much interest in recent years not only among sociologists but also among representatives of other humanities and social sciences, including representatives of the science of religion. Therefore, the author considers it worth discussing. The article deals with religion and nature in light of Rosa’s theory. Rosa understands religion and nature as two of the main axes and areas of man’s search for vertical resonance in modernity. In the section devoted to religion, the author presents Rosa’s view that the essence of religion is man’s need for a response. In light of resonance theory, the author examines phenomena such as prayer, worship, religious rites, certain holidays (Christmas), and sin. Schleiermacher, Buber, Gerhardt, Luther and Camus are singled out as particularly relevant thinkers and creators. On this basis, he discusses existential violence, which stems from the need for resonance and the rejection of alienation as its opposite. The section devoted to nature is mainly focused on the problems that hinder modern man in their quest to fulfil their longing for resonance with nature. The author explains Rosa’s thesis that the ecological crisis is, at its core and origin, an existential and cultural crisis and not a crisis of resources. The author draws conclusions concerning the importance of religion and modern man’s fear of the loss of resonance.

ABSTRACTObjective: to determine the quality of life (QL) of cardiac patients eligible for implantation of a pacemaker (PM) in a cardiac hospital in the inland cities of Goiás States. Method: a cohort study, prospective, longitudinal quantitative approach. Purposeful sample applied to 25 patients who underwent implantation in the first half of 2009. The instrument used was the Short Form Healthy Survey (SF-36). The data were analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) 15.0. The study was approved by the Ethics in Research of the University Center of Annapolis, protocol number 183/2008. Results: Chagas was the most frequent indication for implantation (68%), time of diagnosis of 1 to 25 years (56%), and 13 patients were undergoing treatment and 64% of patients with 1 insertion of pacemaker (PM), without changing so far. The major areas of life scores were Social Aspects (M=72,7), and the minor ones were Functional Capacity (M=31,6), demonstrating that QL is compromised because most of the areas did not exceed the average 50. There was no significance between age and QOL (p>0,05). Conclusion: we conclude that cardiac patients have significant negative impact on QL.

The Status

Despite the vast knowledge concerning factors determining the level of quality of life accumulated in social sciences there are still difficulties with its application to improve human existence. Limited possibilities of rational moulding of this feature may be traced back to the dichotomous approach to social and psychological determinants of the course of human life (the conflict between psychological individualism and sociological holism). Resorting to dimensional thinking may be a solution to this problem. By analysing various functions played by imagination in the lives of both individuals and communities it has been demonstrated how imagination can be used to improve the quality of life. Key words: quality of life, social sciences, psychology, imagination
