Hearing God's Voice, Benjamin J. Lappenga

Faculty Work Comprehensive List

"What is the relationship between the Bible and theology? Gregory Lee’s Today When You Hear His Voice is a delightful companion on this journey, both in what it gets right and where it exposes where we often go wrong in our use of the Bible."

Science In The Sun: How Science Is Performed As A Spatial Practice, Natalie Kass Mar 2017

Science In The Sun: How Science Is Performed As A Spatial Practice, Natalie Kass

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

This study analyzes how spatial organization impacts science communication at the St. Petersburg Science Festival in Florida. Through map analysis, qualitative interviews, and a close reading of evaluation reports, the author determines that sponsorship, logistics, exhibitor ambience, and map usability and design are the factors most affecting the spatial performance of science. To mitigate their effects, technical communicators can identify these factors and provide the necessary revisions when considering how science is communicated to the public.

Rewriting Histories Exhibition, Hannah Fitch Mar 2017

Rewriting Histories Exhibition, Hannah Fitch

Discovery Day (formerly Post & Beyond)

Rewriting Histories, an international exhibition curated by Benj Gerdes and Lasse Lau, was exhibited at the Fotografisk Centre in Copenhagen, Denmark November through December 2015. Rewriting Histories draws on the singular space of the museum, itself an often complicated agent of historization, to highlight works addressing history, subjectivity, and political agency by artists working at the intersection of documentary and art. In many of the film, video and photo works, archival material is included, and thus the exhibition draws on a documentary tradition and frame of significance. By its reference to the documentary aspect, with all that it includes of …

Affective Terrains: Art, War, And National Belonging, Susan Cahill Mar 2017

Affective Terrains: Art, War, And National Belonging, Susan Cahill

Canadian Military History

This paper examines how cultural representations affirm national belonging within the context of Canada’s involvement in the War on Terror. To do this, it takes as its central case study an exhibition of official war art, 11 Artists for 11/11 (2012), which was mounted on public display in celebration of Remembrance Day. This paper approaches the exhibition and the works included in it by addressing their representative and non-representative (or affective) qualities, in order to think through the ways in which visual narratives of military history participate in shaping sentimental attachments to Canadian identity and being Canadian.

I explore the micro and the macro worlds with many of my works crossing back and forth between


What Is Philosophy?, Howard S. Ruttenberg Mar 2017

What Is Philosophy?, Howard S. Ruttenberg

Publications and Research

The speaker relates philosophy to and distinguishes it from all the arts and sciences in terms of its breadth and depth. Philosophy thinks about things, and thoughts, and words and actions (“words and deeds”, in Cicero’s phrase). There are examples of philosophers who have reduced all three of them to one and of philosophers who have kept them distinct. There have been revolutions in philosophy, responsive to great changes in cultural life, in science and politics, and in reaction against established traditions within philosophy. In modern times, there has been a metaphysical revolution against the Aristotelian schoolmen, an epistemological revolution …


Review: Tolerance Among The Virtues, Bharat Ranganathan Mar 2017

Review: Tolerance Among The Virtues, Bharat Ranganathan

Religion Faculty Publications

In increasingly pluralistic liberal democracies, citizens are commanded to be tolerant toward one another. Likewise, intolerance among citizens is criticized. But what exactly is tolerance? Is tolerance a personal attitude toward others whose beliefs and practices we neither wholly accept nor wholly reject? If it is a personal attitude, what does tolerance require from us, epistemologically, morally, and politically, in our interactions with one another? Or given the diverse communities in which we find ourselves, is tolerance something imposed upon us, for example, through coercive policies enforced by our shared social and political institutions? If our shared social and political …
