Abstract:

SummaryThe engagement of psychiatry with religion is increasingly important for better understanding of the ways in which religious people find resources to cope with mental disorder. An example of how a more critical and constructive engagement might be achieved is found in the psychiatric literature on sacred texts. Articles which engage with the alleged psychopathology of the 6th-century BC Hebrew prophet Ezekiel are examined as an example of this and proposals are made for a more critical yet sensitive and constructive future debate.

Katherine Magyarody, “‘Sacred Ties of Brotherhood’: The Social Mediation of Imperial Ideology in The Last of the Mohicans and Canadian Crusoes” (pp. 315–342) This essay analyzes narrative patterns of colonist-indigenous relations within Daniel Defoe’s Robinson Crusoe (1719) and two Robinsonade texts, James Fenimore Cooper’s The Last of the Mohicans (1826) and Catharine Parr Traill’s Canadian Crusoes (1852). Within the latter texts, the multiplication of Crusoe into “castaway” groups allows for an investigation of the social collateral of reaffirming racial hierarchies via settlers’ allegiance

Abstract:

AbstractThis paper explains the nature of sacred text and the process of canonization in the Yārsān religion. To this end, we first show how three formative ideas—i.e., the history of divine manifestation, the angelology of scribing, and the scripture of Qabālah—played a major role in the emergence of canonization and sacred text in the Yārsān religion. We then turn to the parallel, heterogeneous processes of canonization in the Yārsān community, showing that factors such as the community's rhizomatic structure, idea of infinite divine manifestation, continuous process of producing holy texts,

Abstract:

This article examines the complex linguistic phenomenon of Hebrew–Yiddish diglossia within Hasidic homiletic literature, particularly focussing on sermons from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. While previous scholarship has emphasised Hebrew’s dominance in Hasidic written works, this study demonstrates how Yiddish has played a crucial role in preserving and transmitting Hasidic teachings. Through analysis of primary sources, three distinct models of Hebrew–Yiddish integration are identified: parallel texts in both languages within the same volume, limited Yiddish passages integrated wit

After the Civil War, Harbin became the “capital” of the Russian emigration in China, the source of the salutary memory, which made it possible to revive Russian culture in the memory.

Their interaction with the event plan of consciousness has created a set of stable motive-figurative and semantic dominants. The Harbin myth as a utopian myth about the re-creation of pre-revolutionary Russia in a Chinese city has become a semantic invariant of the first “Chinese text”. Second, the Soviet “Chinese t

Abstract:

The category of “Apocrypha” depends on a perception of the canonical Bible as a closed and definitive book of sacred texts, set apart from other writings. But before the biblical canon was established, early Jewish writers imagined Scripture in radically different ways, as vast bodies of heavenly writing that were never fully accessible. Considering evidence from the Dead Sea Scrolls and other literature reveals this surprisingly widespread belief about sacred writing: it is not contained in any specific collection, but much of it is hidden from view—illustrating a different way that texts cou

Abstract:

Abstract Gravestones with Hebrew inscriptions are the most common class of Jewish monuments still present in such regions as Ukraine or Belarus. Epitaphs are related to various Biblical, Rabbinical, and liturgical texts. Despite that, the genre of Hebrew epitaphs seldom becomes an object of cultural or literary studies. In this paper, I show that a function of Hebrew epitaphs is to connect the ideal world of Hebrew sacred texts to the world of everyday life of a Jewish community. This is achieved at several levels. First, the necessary elements of an epitaph – name, date, and location marker –

AbstractIn its subversive interrogations of universal values, objective criteria for meaning, canonicity and other hallmarks which distinguish the Literary, poststructuralism appears to confront all that is "sacred" in the privileged texts of Western culture. Particularly in biblical criticism, insofar as the sanctity of the text and the inviolability of its truth claims are held to be unquestionable, poststructuralism is often denounced as anathema, or at least inappropriate, to exegesis. It is argued that if determinate meaning is inaccessible through language, and universal truth a chimera,

Lilith, who is also mentioned in Jewish sacred texts such as the Talmud, Midrash and Zohar, is also depicted in the non-Jewish alphabet Ben Sira. Thus, Lilith was Adam's first wife, could not get along with him, and left Adam and paradise, claiming that they were equal since they were created equally. Li

Abstract:

The author analyzes the concept of “traditional bookishness” in scientific discourse, noting its unreasonably wide, not terminological, but rather metaphorical use. The reasons for this seem to be: 1) an arbitrary idea of the scope and composition of this concept, which, depending on the field of knowledge, can be identified with folklore works, and sacred texts, and with medieval literature in general, and with the literature of reflective traditionalism, and with “ready word” narratives, etc.; 2) understanding of traditionalism as a single, homogeneous and monolithic creative system, while i

Abstract:

This study aims to critically analyze Ahmed An-Na’im’s thoughts in the renewal of Islamic law, which offers a new perspective on sharia as a dynamic interpretation of sacred texts. The urgency of this study lies in the need to understand the contextual approach to sharia in facing the challenges of modernity, especially in relation to Human Rights (HAM) and constitutionalism. This study uses a qualitative method with a literature study approach, which focuses on An-Na’im’s main works and relevant secondary literature.

Abstract:

The ancient town of Kampil positioned in modern Uttar Pradesh India comprises substantial historical values which spark interest in ancient Bharatian literature. The historical texts refer to this present- day town by its name Kampilya although it served as the center of Panchala kingdom where multiple Hindu Buddhist and Jain traditions flourished. This research studies textual evidence from Indian scriptures about Kampil which exists across the Mahabharata, Puranas and Buddhist and Jain scriptures and Vedic texts to demonstrate its extensive importance while emphasizing its cultural and histo

Urban motifs in Russian poetry have not yet become the subject of comprehensive investigation in terms of the evolution of poetic conceptualization of the world, the frequency, semantics and syntagmatics of the key lexemes — 'gorod' and 'grad'. Meanwhile, the analysis of the poetic, ethnic and linguistic picture of the world, closely connected with diachronic lexicology, phraseology and grammar, allows important conclusions concerning the history of the national semiosphere and conceptosphere based on the analysis of the works of outstanding representatives of culture and literature of a nati

When I wandered into the “vast ocean of the Talmud” a decade or so ago, unaware of the warning within the same texts that Gentiles who undertake the study of Jewish sacred literature should be put to death, I finally found what I had been seeking for years. Here at last was a glimpse of God's personality–His likes and dislikes, His idiosyncracies, His religious observances. To my delight, I also dis-covered in the tractate 'Abodah Zarahthe answer to another mystery. What does God do all day?

If Indian history is not timeless, some parts of Indian historiography certainly seem to be. Habib's paper is a notable example, with its reverence for sacred texts, vigilant even of the order in which the great ones are mentioned, and its repetition in substantially unchanged form of arguments that have been made and answered several times already.I have no stomach for this ancient battle, and do not propose to answer Habib point by point. But those new to the literature should be warned of some of the peculiarities of his style of controversy.

The epigraphic record from Palmyra brings light on the organization of the temples: personnel, management of feasts, economy and on the ritual practices towards certain deities like Allat and Shai ‘al-Qaum.

Abstract:

Genesis 3:16b has traditionally been interpreted as proof of woman’s inferiority, her nefarious powers of seduction, and as a license for men to rule and master her. Such an interpretation seems to have a much greater affinity with the Hellenistic context from which it arose than with its immediate Hebraic and Ancient Near Eastern context. If we are to remain faithful to this context—where woman was held in high esteem—we need more than ever to approach Genesis 3:16b with a lens that does not do violence to the woman. This article seeks to offer a new exegetical lens on Genesis 3:16b, as a red

This essay explores the intentio operis in the use of transatlantic bridges that are sometimes real, other times rhetorical, and others imaginary that Alberto Ruy Sánchez draws between his country and Morocco. It also looks at the representation of Moroccan space and women, arguing that Ruy Sánchez falls into exoticizing Orientalism with tints of colonial nostalgia, particularly when portraying Moroccan women. Finally, it explores how the author creates his own precursors through the quotes and literary references in his five novels. Presenting himself as a reader of Arab erotic literature and
