Book Review: Geoffrey Scarre, Death, Chesham, Acumen, 2007, Glenn J. Morrison Jan 2008

Book Review: Geoffrey Scarre, Death, Chesham, Acumen, 2007, Glenn J. Morrison

Theology Papers and Journal Articles

The question of the meaning of being has led philosophers on towards formulating theories and questions on a variety of subjects such as time, God, personhood, otherness and death. Geoffrey Scarre has chosen the subject of death to explore not only its meaning and truth, but also its relation to life and its effects upon others and the world. Traversing the philosophical tradition of death, Scarre brings into conversation centuries of wisdom and reflection upon the meaning and rationalisation of death. Taking the position of the unlikely occurrence of any form of afterlife, it is not surprising that Scarre re-creates …

A Renewed Focus On Lenten Penance: Pope Benedict Vivifies The Lenten Penance, Judith Schneider

Theology Papers and Journal Articles

Historically, lent is the time, in the journay of the catechumen, of repentence in preparation for Baptism at Easter. In solidarity, all the baptised also prepare, through repentance, for the renewal of their baptismal promises toward Easter renewal.1 This dimension of renunciation has remained integral to Lent, to the present day. 2


Modernism And Postmodernism, Brad Kallenberg, Ethan Smith Jan 2008

Modernism And Postmodernism, Brad Kallenberg, Ethan Smith

Theology and Religious Studies Faculty Publications

The Global Dictionary of Theology is inspired by the shift of the center of Christianity from the West to the Global South. But it also reflects the increase in two-way traffic between these two sectors as well as the global awareness that has permeated popular culture to an unprecedented degree.

The editorial perspective of the Global Dictionary of Theology is an ecumenical evangelicalism that is receptive to discovering new facets of truth through listening and conversation on a global scale. Thus a distinctive feature of the Global Dictionary of Theology is its conversational approach. Contributors have been called on to …

36 | The Necropolis Of Bet Guvrin–Eleutheropolisi, Gideon Avni, Talila Michaeli, Tamar Winter Jan 2008

36 | The Necropolis Of Bet Guvrin–Eleutheropolisi, Gideon Avni, Talila Michaeli, Tamar Winter

IAA Reports—Monograph Series of the Israel Antiquities Authority

This large cemetery is associated with the city of Bet Guvrin–Eleutheropolis in the Judean Shephelah, which began as a Jewish village, then transforming into a central Roma–Byzantine polis and administrative center. The cemeteries comprise varying types of burial caves hewn into the soft-limestone bedrock in dense clusters over a prolonged period of some 500 years. The architecture, symbols and artifacts, including pottery, ceramic oil lamps, glass and other small finds, enabled a chronological typology of the caves, reflecting the socioeconomic and ethno-religious standing of the mixed pagan, Jewish and Christian population of the city.

Displacement In French/Displacement Of French: The Reggae And R’N’B Of Tiken Jah Fakoly And Corneille, Olivier Bourderionnet

Foreign Languages Faculty Publications

This paper examines the work and situations of two francophone singer-songwriters from Africa, Tiken Jah Fakoly and Corneille, through the notion of displacement. I attempt to answer important questions regarding language, identity, and the social role of the African pop artist in France and the francophone world. Tiken Jah Fakoly and Corneille embody the mediation between publics from two continents and the global music industry in a particular geopolitical context. They also belong to a generation of artists whose productions signal a shift in French popular music representations of Africa and Africans. Discussing these artists’ choice to sing in French …
