Hurlock Kathryn: Holy Places / B

How Pilgrimage Changed the World

Anti-Semitism and Islamophobia are on the rise in twenty-first-century Europe, but these notions of the malevolent, conspiring Jew or Muslim are far more than a medieval trope. Over the last millennium, deep currents of exclusion have shaped not only modern relationships between majorities and minorities, but the distinctive Western relationship between state and society. This volume asks an important question: why is it that, in a period when Europe's Islamic south and Catholic and Orthodox east remained home to religiously diverse communities, the Western fringes of Latin Christendom instead rid themselves of Jews and Muslims, through exploitation, mass murder, deportations and enslavement? Ariel Salzmann identifies the intersecting structural and sociological roots of this peculiarly Western approach, from rapid consolidation of secular polities and commercial markets in the Crusades era; to the ideology and practice of ritualised, politicised violence against minorities; to distinctive forms of economic protectionism arising from the use of minorities and their resources as bargaining chips. 'The Exclusionary West' shows that the medieval exclusion of minorities is bound up with the very foundation of Western European nation-states, informing the basic rights of civil citizenship and shaping Western ideas of identity and belonging. These legacies retain their insidious but potent power today.

Medieval Minorities and the Making of Modern Europe

The Exclusionary West

Popes and the Papal Court, 1503-1655 is the first book-length account of the early modern papal court in English. As well as bringing together art historical, social, and political studies in several languages, it contains a wealth of primary source material, such as advice manuals for cardinals and aspiring courtiers, accounts of Roman festivals, reports of visiting ambassadors and news reports from Rome deposited in the Vatican library. The book argues that during the 16th and 17th centuries, popes were conscious to varying degrees of their responsibilities to conserving and enhancing the status of the monarchy as something larger than themselves as individuals or their families, and as such they exhibited some characteristics of dynastic monarchies. Toby Osborne explores how the culture of the papal court and the ways in which it functioned as a point of contact between the ruler, certain elites, and other princes not only had similarities with dynastic states, but also set the standard for court life around Europe. By bringing to light recent scholarship written by continental historians, Popes and the Papal Court, 1503-1655 represents an important contribution to the scholarly endeavour to better understand the political culture of the papal states and the workings of the papal monarchy. As such, it will be illuminating reading for all students and scholars interested in early modern court history.

Perspectives in Economic and Social History

Prostitution in Los Angeles has a long history. The story of its evolution from a red-light district run by women to a corporate vice industry dominated by men tells us much about the development of urban America. Kooistra examines race and gender dynamics alongside issues of government and police corruption, commerce and larger changes in society.

Routledge Studies in Archaeology

This book is the first to investigate early Roman religion on the basis of archaeological evidence. Author Elizabeth Colantoni uses the archaeological data to construct a new narrative about early Roman religious practices, examining the role and nature of sacred space; the religious calendar; gods, priests and worshippers; ritual and sacrifice; and death rites and ancestor cult in early Rome. The result is a fuller and more accurate picture of changing early Roman religious practices that also provides the basis for a better understanding of the more widely attested religion of the Romans who lived during the period of the Roman republic and after.

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.

Routledge New Critical Thinking in Religion, Theology and Biblical Studies

In his chapter entitled 'Anselm on Ethics' in the Cambridge Companion to Anselm, Jeffrey Brower comments that, 'Anselm's ethical views have received very little attention from contemporary scholars, and as a result there is no satisfactory systematic treatment of them available in the contemporary literature.' This book seeks to fill that lacuna. More specifically the purpose of this volume is to examine the extent to which Anselm of Canterbury possessed a consistent normative philosophy which coherently addressed the question of how the individual ought to act. By so doing it extends the contemporary commentary of Anselm's ethical philosophy beyond the abstract and meta-ethical and analyses the ways in which Anselm's letter collection can be used to show pragmatic approaches to ethical questions. In examining this field, this book contains two interdependent parts, one illustrative of the other. The first deals with Anselm's anthropology, theory of will, and ethical philosophy. The second examines the impact of his theology and ethical philosophy upon his societal and political beliefs. The contrast between formal theological writing and the more personal letter collections is intentional as a way of evaluating the manner in which Anselm's thought is consistent across a range of academic exercises and real world scenarios. In addition, this provides case studies of how a normative approach opens up new lines of research and furthers the field of Anselm studies, addressing several past issues of contention.

Great Theologians Series

This book fills an important gap in present literature, presenting the first scholarly study of Calvin's theology for nearly thirty years. Bringing together the fruits of recent scholarship which has explored Calvin's intellectual context, this book offers a new reading of how Calvin set about the theological task and what he had to say. Attention is paid to Calvin's location in intellectual history, and to his reading; to his use of the Bible; to his theological method; and to his influence on the later tradition. At the heart of the work is a new summary of Calvin's theology, drawing out major themes and showing their inter-relations.
