Abstract:
Abstract The 2014 staging and publication of Jonathan Moore’s play Inigo offers a unique commentary on the relationship between acting and spirituality within the Society of Jesus, the official name of the Jesuit Order. Through a close analysis of Moore’s play, this article contends that Jesuit spirituality draws on performative skills to inspire exemplary behavior and foster an embodied and long-lasting response to devotional narratives. In probing post-secular readings of hagiographical drama, the author considers the reasons for the ongoing fascination exerted by saints as stage characters

Abstract:
The research paper at hand conducts a stylistic analysis of James Joyce’s short story, Grace, to explore religious hypocrisy and the myth of spiritual redemption within early 20th-century Irish Catholicism. Since earlier research has only focused on the theological or cultural themes in Grace, this paper fills a significant gap by rigorously examining the story's linguistic and narrative devices using the stylistic model proposed by Leech and Short (2007). Following the stylistic model, the study analyzes the text at four levels; lexis, grammar, figures of speech, and discourse. Evidence from

Abstract:
Beginning with an investigation into forms of aurality used in late fourteenth and early fifteenth-century Middle English devotional literature, this article breaks down journeys of affective piety in both the courtly romance and urban cycle plays. Traditional understandings of genre divisions are super-ceded in the Middle English period by performative spirituality and invocations to the audience/ reader to a contemplative posture. The Wakefield Master and the Gawain poet developed their work in dialogue with Lollard critiques of church excesses. They both show investment in personal expressi

Prayer was at the heart of the anchoritic vocation, as an integrated, embodied spiritual practice.

Applying the terminology of “liturgy” proposed by Jean-Yves Lacoste, this essay examines how Eve of Wilton is envisioned at prayer, and encouraged in her life of prayer. This life is inextricably connected, for Goscelin, to the eschatological vision which fo

Correspondingly, most historians are skeptical about the official reason for Afanasii’s resignation, his illness.

The debate over the Jewish, Greek, or mixed social settings of Ezekiel’s Exagoge often focuses on whether the play was intended for performance in a Greek theatre.
