Sketching the Masters

Manuscripta Biblica

Viele griechische Evangelienhandschriften sind mit kleinen lexikalischen und exegetischen Erklärungen bei schwierigen Stellen oder Worten versehen. Als "Diener" des biblischen Textes verleihen sie da und dort der heiligen Schrift alte oder neue, phantasievolle oder gelehrte Bedeutungen. Oft stellen sie intertextuelle Bezüge her - zwischen den Evangelien oder über den biblischen Kanon hinaus. Zum ersten Mal wird hier eine kritische Edition dieser diskreten Lesehilfen, die die Bibel beim Wort nehmen, vorgelegt. Das Buch untersucht die Textüberlieferung dieser Erklärungen. Es wirft neues Licht auf die biblische Rezeptionsgeschichte und zeigt, welche Stellen als schwierig empfunden wurden - und wie man damit umging. Es betrachtet die biblischen Handschriften als ganzheitliche Zeugen eigener Schreib- und Leseakte, indem es auch das Layout von Wortschatzlisten und Stammbäumen ernst nimmt.

Many Greek gospel manuscripts are furnished with lexical and exegetic explanations for difficult passages or words. They often create intertextual references – between the gospels or going beyond the biblical canon. For the first time, this volume presents a critical edition of these discrete reading aids that take the bible at its word.

Lexikalische und exegetische Lesehilfen in griechischen Tetraevangelien

Understanding Religion and Society aims to help undergraduate students understand the roles that religion plays within social life, and how these roles influence the economic, political, and socio-cultural aspects of different societies. Scott-Jones reviews a range of key issues and debates within the social science study of religion, and explores key global religious trends. The book has a range of pedagogic features, including short case studies, reflective questions and activities, suggested readings, media and online resources.

Understanding Religion and Society: Identity, Meaning and Knowledge is aimed at undergraduate students studying religion within a social science context. Its central focus is on the roles that religion plays within social life and how these roles influence the economic, political, and socio-cultural aspects of different societies. Identity, meaning and knowledge provision are identified as underpinning all of religion’s other socio-cultural functions. The book uses these three elements as central themes – a means to explore the ways in which religion operates within different societies. The book will review a range of key issues and debates within the social science study of religion, including the secularization thesis. It will review key global religious trends, such as the growth of religious fundamentalism, new religious movements, and New Age believing. The book will have a range of pedagogic features, including, short ‘boxed’ case studies, reflective questions and activities, suggested readings, media and online resources.

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.

Discourses of Law

In response to the rise of administrative rationality, this book draws on history, social anthropology and political theology, to examine the current crisis of faith in the legal and political constitutional imagination. Through a close reading of developments in crisis-stricken Greece and beyond, Marinos Diamantides maintains that the totalizing idea of an absolute but relational power of self-constitution applicable everywhere is the result, not of discarding but, attributing to man, the power of God. Forging a new vocabulary and new instruments by which to understand and respond to various crises in the contemporary state form, this book will be of enormous interest to scholars, students and others with an interest in current legal and political theory.

In response to the rise of administrative rationality, this book draws on history, social anthropology and political theology, to examine the current crisis of faith in the legal and political constitutional imagination. An important body of law and society research has helped move jurisprudence beyond legal formalism. While the debt of law to more fundamental social and political phenomena has been established, the link between contemporary thinking of society, politics and law to pre-modern philosophical and religious metaphysics was and is still denied both by formalists and anti-formalist realists promoting the rise of social sciences in law. This book contests the premises of such secular optimism, arguing that modern constitutionality still involves legal and political values, rights entitlements and social formations that reflect the particular metaphysical postulates of a bygone era. Even as the constitution of world society is widely described as the result of fragmented and impersonal processes, the occidental fantasy of a sovereign power remains operative. Succinctly – and through a close reading of developments in crisis-stricken Greece and beyond – Marinos Diamantides maintains that the totalizing idea of an absolute but relational power of self-constitution applicable everywhere is the result, not of discarding but, attributing to man, the power of God. Forging a new vocabulary and new instruments by which to understand and respond to various crises in the contemporary state form, this book will be of enormous interest to scholars, students and others with an interest in current legal and political theory.

Explorations in Practical, Pastoral and Empirical Theology

Theological reflection lies at the heart of practical theology. There is an increasingly robust collection of literature focusing on it. However, little attention has been given to what reflection is or what it looks like when practised 'theologically'. This gap may account for some of the ongoing uncertainty on the part of practitioners of every sort: those engaged in ministry, teachers and students of practical theology, and 'every day' Christians aspiring to make meaning of their experience in a way that is faithful to the Christian tradition. This book provides an exploration of theological reflection from a foundation of adult education in general and experiential learning theory in particular. Reflection as a way of making meaning from experience is integral to experiential learning theory and the book argues that reflection and learning have a symbiotic relationship. Reflection should therefore be understood and its processes examined from this perspective. The early chapters provide the important educational foundations. Literature on theological reflection is then scrutinised through this lens, before the findings of an empirical study are presented which reveal how individuals went about reflecting theologically in an educational context. The analysis of both theory and empirical data allows a range of pointers to emerge about what theological reflection looks like in practice and what features influence the procedures adopted. Two penultimate chapters are provided by academic practitioners who respond to the overall discussion by reflecting on the implications for their practice. The final chapter draws the threads together and indicates how the volume has contributed to practical theology's understanding of theological reflection in general.

Routledge Studies in Evangelicalism

From the transatlantic revivals of the 1730s and 1740s through to the tumultuous years of the Napoleonic Wars, evangelicals thought a great deal about church history and the relationship of the past with recent events. In this ground-breaking study, Darren Schmidt considers the emergence and development of evangelical Protestantism in the North Atlantic context during the long eighteenth century, through the lens of history-writing by evangelicals themselves. Considering the writings of prominent early evangelicals such as Jonathan Edwards, John Newton and John Wesley, along with lesser known historians with evangelical connections, the volume asks why these individuals, amidst busy lives of pastoral ministry, study, and guidance to a fledgling religious movement, would devote their attention to the pages of the past. In so doing, Schmidt draws out new and intriguing connections between evangelicalism and the wider enlightenment world.

Evangelical History-Writing and the Construction of Identity, 1735-1810

This book is the first major study of the constellation of evangelists, mission halls, tent revivals, children's clubs, Bible institutes, musicians, advertising strategies, publishing enterprises, and philanthropic activity that constituted a vibrant substratum of British Evangelical Christianity between the mid-nineteenth and mid-twentieth centuries. This populist Protestant subculture has been well-charted in North America but virtually ignored in Britain. This lacuna is part due to a common assumption that secularization? corroded traditional religious communities during this era. By contrast, this book argues that this panoply of pan-denominational affinities and endeavours in fact represented an adaptation of the British Evangelical Protestant tradition to the age of mass democracy. In exploring the beliefs, worship and spirituality, gender roles, mission networks, revival events, material culture, and social protocols and taboos of popular Evangelicalism, the book presents a religious movement well-attuned to an age of popular politics, metropolitan culture, demotic advertising, and mass entertainment.

Popular Evangelicalism in the Age of Mass Democracy

The book surveys the history and teachings of Taoism (Daoism) over the course of Chinese civilization, and explores themes and ideas that interest modern minds. The religions of Asia continually fascinate people around the world. During the 20th century, the Taoist (Daoist) tradition of China became well-known. But even at the century's end, our understandings of Taoism was limited to what scholars of Asia and Western lands had revealed. Few knew of the probing researches also being conducted by scholars of Russia, particularly Evgeny Torchinov (1956-2003). Torchinov, Russia's leading authority on Taoism, died suddenly before completing the final English edition of his comprehensive introduction, Daosizm: Opyt Istoriko-religioznogo Opisaniia. Here at last is that English edition and we see Taoism through fresh eyes, revealing new insights into the minds and lives of centuries of Chinese Taoists.
