Abstract:
Abstract Christ imagery in Silence represents Endō’s intentional progression from ‘father-religion’ to ‘mother-religion’. This paper explicates the former as a distortive ideological belief—the determinism of the ‘strong’ and ‘weak’—that conveys Endō’s aversion for institutionalized and paternal aspects of Christianity; that sows feelings of superiority toward ‘the weak’ in Rodrigues (revealed especially as he administers confession); and that anthropomorphizes as an internal voice that accuses and haunts with fears of inadequacy.

Abstract:
This discussion of the fourth-century commentary of Marius Victorinus on Paul’s epistle to the Galatians serves as a critical witness to late ancient understanding of Paul’s self-identification with the stigmata of Christ (of Gal 6:17), as the marks of his humiliating death on the cross. Echoing Paul on “being crucified with Christ”, Victorinus exhorted Christians to follow that example in suffering for their faith, warning them that suffering is inevitable.

AbstractThe relationship between the Bible and Christianity, including Christian theology, is traditionally strong and undisputed; however, in Christian theology in Africa, as elsewhere, the status of the biblical texts is contested. A brief consideration of the Bible as 'canon' leads to a broader discussion of how the Bible has to a certain extent become a 'problem' in African theology also, both because of theological claims made about its status, and - and in conjunction with - its perceived complicity in justifying human suffering and hardship.

Influential interactions with sociology eventually lead Brueggemann to propose faith not simply as response to God’s faithfulness, but rather through rhetori

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter seeks to explore the assertion that “music is the most spiritual of the arts” by focusing on some aspects of its capacity to render and evoke the transcendent. It begins by pointing out the evident power of music more generally speaking, its effect on the human body and soul. It then attempts to make inroads into understanding the inevitably broad concept of ‘spirituality,’ with reference especially to music. And sometimes people equate music’s overall power with spiritual power. Among the factors that might quantify and particularize the spiritual power of music is the texts to which it is set, or out of which it comes, notably when the text is explicitly sacred, i.e., consciously dedicated to the praise and awe of transcendent reality, whether personal or not. But another, more affective marker is music’s capacity to reflect the range of human experience, from suffering to joy. Some of the music that most commonly evokes the descriptive of ‘spiritual’ is that which—with or without sacred text—does best at evoking human feeling, perhaps suffering even more than joy. A concluding case study of Arvo Pärt’s music helps illustrate this phenomenon. This chapter argues that one reason that listeners, whether secular or religious, find Pärt’s music spiritually evocative is its capacity to ‘listen to its listeners’ and somehow, mysteriously, to empathize with them in their grief, and indicate paths towards hope.

Abstract To better understand the religious transformation which resulted from the encounter of the Germanic peoples with Christianity, it is useful to be come familiar with other instances of pre-Christian and non-Christian religious transformation, particularly those in which a folk-religious society encountered a universal religious movement. Of special interest is the religious transformation which occurred when the folk-religious Indo European societies of ancient Greece and Rome encountered “proto Christian” mystery cults during the Hellenistic age. An examination of Hellenistic and Jewish religious and philosophical currents should con tribute toward the development of a general model of the interaction between folk-religious societies and universal religions, and of the religious transformation which stems from it. This model will then be applied to the encounter of the Germanic peoples with Christianity.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract Late-medieval Christianity in Western Europe was vibrant but contested. The fifteenth century proved an age of reform and growth, yet visions of reform clashed. At the highest level, the restored papacy wrestled for supremacy both with both conciliar opponents and with temporal rulers who desired to control ecclesiastical affairs. Universities proliferated but so did schools of theological thought that disagreed on significant doctrines. Heresies spread, their advocates calling for radical change. Laymen and women, increasingly affluent with the growth of mercantile wealth, sought greater access to the religious life, and spurred by the printing revolution, vernacular religious literature spread across Europe. Although united by its sacramental, clerical and hierarchical authority, the late-medieval church was intensely local, varying enormously in forms of worship and devotion. Itinerant preachers fired popular piety, encouraging the people to visit shrines, embark on pilgrimages, venerate saints and relics, and receive the body and blood of Christ. Parish churches became filled with the devotional gifts of the faithful interceding for their beloved in purgatory and preparing for their own deaths. Mary was revered as the mother of mercy and the suffering body of her son, in visual representations, sermons, and devotional works across Europe, reminded women and men of God’s intimate presence in their lives. Humanism, with its recovery of antiquity and the original sources of Christianity, served as the driving force of intellectual and spiritual change.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter assesses The Chronicle of Morea, which contains some of the most intriguing aspects of the colonial encounter of the Fourth Crusade. The Chronicles of Morea provides a series of discursive juxtapositions between the Franks and the Greeks. Although it has a very complicated textual history, The Chronicles of Morea tells the multigenerational story of the Frankish Villehardouin dynasty, which ruled the Peloponnese in the centuries after the conquest of 1204. This text reveals not only the way that colonizer and colonized eventually came to work alongside one another but also the way that the prolonged encounter between Greeks and Franks transformed the means by which both understood their sense of identity and religious commitments. It is precisely because of these aspects of this text that the insights of postcolonial analysis help one to understand the many complexities that they convey.

Full text
Abstract:
In 1880s London, Margaret Harkness and Olive Schreiner were both engaged in the socialist movement. An admirer of Schreiner, Harkness dedicated a socialist allegory to her in the late 1880s. However, in In Darkest London, Harkness uses allegorical forms less as propaganda tools and more, as Schreiner did, to evoke a sense of religious mystery. Mysterious, allegorical elements create a liminal space within Harkness’s otherwise realist novel, in which can exist the hope of a better future. This chapter sheds light on Harkness’s work through tracing her participation in the religious socialist aesthetic developed by Olive Schreiner. In situating Harkness in the context of 1880s and 1890s socialism and theology, the chapter argues that Harkness’s work was part of a literary discourse that contributed to the development of early twentieth- century Christianity and social work.
