Embodied Pedagogies in the Study of Religion

Transforming the Classroom

In November 2022, Benjamin Netanyahu returned to power in Israel after the fifth election in less than four years. Propped up by a bloc of far-right and ultra-religious parties, Netanyahu's government is the most extreme administration in Israeli history. It has pushed Israeli society to breaking point. Israel now faces cataclysmic rifts and an existential crisis. Pfeffer charts the mass protests against Netanyahu's attempts to silence the judiciary and expand settlement in the West Bank, as well as the shattering of Israel's core beliefs after October 7th and the calamitous war in Gaza. No King In Israel is the definitive story of Israel's fractured democracy, and of the fight to define what Israel should be.

"Crockett, Das, and Pratihar have generated a work of extraordinary interest and cross-disciplinary attractiveness. This book’s timeliness signals the materialization of both a longer term and at the same time extraordinarily fresh subject matter. The chapters are scintillating but not obscure in their transdisciplinary liveliness. Together they offer an approach that an ethically concerned theory should follow more often: they convey their indispensable economic/political/ecological practicality with an alluring creativity."—Catherine Keller, Drew University, USA"Religion, Politics and New Materialism is a vital and timely collection of essays. The fragile truce among liberalism, capitalism, religion, and the environment is crumbling. The chapters, drawing on the resources of New Materialism, Energy Humanities, and Political Theology, seek to understand the nature of the truce, its limits, and what future might be possible in its wake. Taken as a whole, this collection is a tour de force of contemporary scholarship, which accompanies the reader in an urgent engagement of political imagination."—Brent Adkins, Roanoke College, USAThis volume addresses the critical role of religion in the world today, and how it is caught up in the transition from modern liberalism to postmodern neoliberalism. It explores how religion is always implicated in political formations, as well as how contemporary politics has religious influences and effects. The interconnection between religion and politics is informed by the philosophy of New Materialism and set within a planetary context that acknowledges the human role in climate change.Prof. Clayton Crockett is Professor of Religious Studies in the Department of Philosophy and Religion at the University of Central Arkansas, USAProf. Saswat Samay Das is Associate Professor of Critical Theory in the Department of Humanities and Social Sciences, Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur, India&nbsp;Dr. Ananya Roy Pratihar is Assistant Professor of Communication Studies, Institute of Management and Information Science, Bhubaneswar, India

Religion, Politics and the New Materialism

Negative Theology and Christology: Ascension and Eucharist makes a critical and constructive contribution to systematic theology by exploring the meaningful interpretation of the doctrine of the ascension of Christ. Through an insightful reading of Christ's ascension to heaven as the concealment of the revealer?, the author investigates the extent to which negative theology illumines some of the deepest doctrinal structures of Christian faith. On the basis of close attention to tradition, both catholic and reformed, Norman provides a revisionist history of the doctrine of the ascension that challenges other recent accounts, and offers a corrective to simplistic and reductive interpretations of the place of heaven in Christian worldviews, ancient, medieval, and modern. Norman outlines the significance of the concealment of Christ to Christian life and thought, recovering the ascension as one of the most important mysteries of the faith. Ultimately, the argument contributes to meaningful interpretation of the Eucharist by moving, beyond discussions of presence and absence, towards a personalist account of sacramental encounter with the ascended Christ.

Routledge Philosophy of Religion Series

The notion of a soul - an immaterial bearer of consciousness distinct from the body - enjoyed traditional popularity but recently the idea has been questioned, frequently rejected, and sometimes ridiculed. This book argues that the view that persons are immaterial minds capable of surviving death, is in fact a more defensible view than any of its competitors. Moving beyond traditional disputes between mind-body dualists and idealists to focus on what dualists and idealists agree on in opposition to physicalists, Yandell explores the nature of persons according to, and as they occur within, central religious traditions. He concludes that those Christians who have rejected the soul, and opted for the view that the mind is only the more articulate capacities of the body, have exchanged truth for falsehood.

The Soul

A step-by-step series of forty reflections on the core tenets of the Christian Faith for the Jordan Peterson generation. From London to Los Angeles, Hong Kong to Dubai, Paris to Delhi, the world is not as it should be. Something is wrong, something has always been wrong. You know it within yourself: that gnawing, flat, ulcerous feeling that cannot be fully suppressed despite the promise of limitless pleasure and every convenience at the push of a button. Looking around, you increasingly inhabit a world whose billboards promise paradise but the reality is a cage, where your opinions, movements and purchases are constantly monitored and recorded. This is the Program, the societal winter that everyone from the Biblical authors to CS Lewis warned us would come as consequence of a life outside the Spirit. The clock is ticking for each of us. This 'catechism' - think of it as an instruction manual for your soul - offers a singular alternative. A route for a generous life of inner peace and joy that is the basics of Christianity. The Gospel has a profoundly positive message concerning humanity; that we are not accidents of nature. For our culture to let our individual humanity slip away and merge with our machines and systems is to dehumanise ourselves and perhaps even to initiate unwittingly a new Dark Age. Only the Christian Gospel will rescue humanity from the digial Brave New World. Christianity is not easy. It is a faith that demands something of you. Use this book to find out more about us. Here we embrace the Light from Above to find solace and to survive in a difficult, turbulent world.

Explorations in Practical, Pastoral and Empirical Theology

This book is founded upon the understanding that things matter to people. Exploring the renewing of practical theology through critical attention to the values and practices of everyday life, this book looks at how recent cultural and epistemological shifts have generated new agendas for theological thinking. Engaging with recent debates in many disciplines that have explored the relationship between persons and objects, Walton advocates a theological methodology which is radically incarnational, though proposing that incarnational theology itself must be rethought in the light of shifts in our understandings of materiality, epistemology and embodiment: when we speak of God integrally present in the material world, God as Word or God in flesh we can no longer assume that these affirmations carry the same meaning they once did. Introducing the work of new materialists focussing in particular on Miller and Bennett and their critique of materiality and appreciation of the sacred potentiality of things, Walton then explores the possibility of an affirmative approach to the created order - including material objects - which is based upon the radically incarnational aspects of the Franciscan tradition. Drawing upon insights offered in the work of Walter Benjamin, Michel de Certeau, Gaston Bachelard and others to construct a theological anthropology that celebrates the significance of things in human life, Walton goes on to argue that there can be discerned within the work of 20th century women writers a mystical appreciation of materiality which is congruent with the incarnational theology being developed within this work. Examples are drawn from the writings of Virginia Woolf, Ettie Hillesum, Elizabeth Smart and Michelle Roberts in order to establish how everyday material objects may become hugely spiritually significant to people. Finally, the book explores how habitual material interactions with things can be understood as sites of potential personal or political renewal.

A New Theology of Everyday Life

God in Things

Loubna Mrie was raised a staunch Syrian Alawite, the same sect as then President Hafez al-Assad. Her mother's father helped plan the coup that saw Hafez seize power in 1970 and bring the Alawites out of hiding and into a position of total control. Her father was intimately involved in Hafez's government as an enforcer and assassin. When the Arab Spring reached Syria in 2011, she attended a protest against his son Bashar's government out of curiosity and her life changed forever. When she returned to her grandparents' home in Damascus, her family called her a traitor. Unable to look back, she plunged ahead into a life of activism - in opposition to both the regime and her abusive father - with unimaginable consequences. Loubna's father was exiled, her mother murdered and her boyfriend, Peter Kassig, an American, was executed by ISIS. This memoir will tell her story in her own words.

Dämonologie und Therapie "Exorzismus und Psychoanalyse" lautet der Titel eines geplanten, aber nicht mehr realisierten Buches von Hugo Ball. Ball war nach abgebrochenem Philosophiestudium und Theaterengagements mit seiner Partnerin Emmy Hennings in Zürich eine der zentralen Gründerfiguren des Dadaismus - bald wandten sie sich jedoch ab und wählten einen religiösen Lebensweg, bis zu Balls frühem Tod. Skizzen, Dispositionen und Notate zu dem Buchprojekt aus dem Nachlass liegen nun erstmals transkribiert und im Faksimile editiert vor. Ball war überzeugt, dass die Psychoanalyse einer Erweiterung durch exorzistisches Wissen bedarf. Sein Ziel war eine kritische Gegenüberstellung moderner Therapieformen mit historischen Austreibungspraktiken. Balls Aufzeichnungen geben Einblick in seine obsessive Beschäftigung mit Dämonologie und Teufelsglauben. <li>Einblick in das nie realisierte Buchprojekt von Hugo Ball (1886-1927), Autor und zentrale Gründerfigur des Dadaismus </li> <li>Aus dem Nachlass herausgegeben </li> <li>Mit Listen von Vokabeln, Namen, Begriffen, Terminologien; eine Litanei des Satans lexikografischer Art </li>

Demonology and therapy  “Exorcism and Psychoanalysis” is the title of a book by Hugo Ball that was planned but never realized. Ball, with his partner Emmy Hennings, was one of the founding figures of Dadaism in Zurich after abandoning his studies of philosophy and working in theater. However, they soon abandoned Dadaism and pursued a religious way of life until Ball’s early death.  Sketches, dispositions, and notations for the book project from Ball’s bequeathed papers have been made available for the first time in transcribed and edited facsimile form. Ball was convinced that psychoanalysis needed to be expanded to encompass exorcistic knowledge. His goal was to critically contrast modern forms of therapy with historical practices of exorcism. Ball’s notes provide insight into his obsessive preoccupation with demonology and the devil.  Offers insight into an unrealized book project by Hugo Ball (1886–1927), author and founding figure of Dadaism  Published from his bequest  With vocabulary lists, names, terms, and terminologies – a lexicographical litany of Satan
