Routledge New Critical Thinking in Religion, Theology and Biblical Studies

Hass Andrew: The Music of Theology

The Music of Theology

Language – Space – Silence

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.

A Conversation

The Origin of the Soul

The focus of this book is the theology, liturgy and practice of Anglican Confirmation from 1945 to 2000. It is the third book in a series on Anglican Confirmation. The first chapters look at confirmation on a global and ecumenical level. How have questions about the place and performance of confirmation changed?

From ‘The Sacramental Principle’ to ‘The Challenge of Baptismal Unity’

Anglican Confirmation 1945–2000

This book focuses on St. Augustine as a worthwhile resource for thinking through the challenges and prospects of pluralism. The contributors speak to several dimensions of this organizing concept, understanding of which is advanced by engagement with Augustine.

Augustine and Frontiers of Pluralism

Eating God examines the history of the Eucharist as a means for understanding transformations in society from the late Middle Ages onwards and will be particularly relevant to those interested in cultural history and the history of Christianity.

A History of the Eucharist

Eating God

This book brings together the interdisciplinary reflections of Christian scholars and poets, to explore how ecological virtues can foster the flourishing of our home planet in the face of unprecedented environmental change and devastation.

Christian Perspectives Across the Disciplines

Ecoflourishing and Virtue

Barth and Ecotheology offers a critical and constructive reading of Karl Barth's theology in the context of the Anthropocene. It reflects on how a contemporary doctrine of creation must be broad enough to address issues such as climate change, colonialism and racism, sexism, as well as integrating modern science.

The Electing God and the Community of Creation

Barth and Ecotheology

This book analyses White's Christology, Incarnational model, and views of the Godhead and of what (could have) happened at the cross, cutting new paths in the comprehension of God's love while challenging conventional theological paradigms.

Infinite Risk Theology

This book examines the threat posed by climate change to the low-lying islands of Tuvalu through a lens of what it means to be a neighbour, drawing upon Indigenous knowledge, the ethics of climate justice and insights from climate science to explore the implications of the parable of the Good Samaritan.

Tuvalu, Theology, and the Geopolitics of Climate Change

This book focuses on the relationships between phenomenology and theology, which have been varied and complex but seem currently in an inconclusive and loosely defined state.

Theological Fringes of Phenomenology

This book considers the connection between the world of mental health in the twenty-first century and the traditional concept of desire in Christianity and the Arts.

Desire and Mental Health in Christianity and the Arts

Routledge Studies in Evangelicalism

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.

The Revelatory Power of Mimetic Theory

Routledge Studies in Religion

This edited collection explores whether the cultural and organisational realities of Catholicism, along with its underpinning theology, led to abuse by clergy being made possible. Written by a panel with expertise in the myriad implications of abuse, this book addresses issues such as the spiritual dynamics of abuse; the resultant psychological issues of abuse and restorative justice. It also discusses the place of children of clergy and the sexual misconduct of priests with adults. This is vital reading for any academic of Theology, Religious Studies, Psychology and Law who wants to better understand the dynamics at work in these instances of abuse.

The Roman Catholic Church, along with other religious and non-religious institutions, has been embroiled in a series of sexual abuse scandals during the last decades. In response, a variety of important measures have been introduced to eradicate the possibility of further abuse, with particular attention given to issues around safeguarding. However, research has tended to focus on the individual pathology of each perpetrator. In contrast, this collection brings a systematic and inter-disciplinary methodology to bear on the distinctive cultural and organisational realities of Catholicism and its underpinning theology. This is in order to test the claim that they are significant contributing factors to a culture that enabled abusive behaviour to become a possibility. Written by a panel with expertise in the theological, ecclesiological, psychological and legal implications of abuse, this book addresses issues such as the spiritual dynamics of sexual abuse; restorative justice; and psychological issues related to abuse by clergy. It also broadens the discussion to include the place of children of clergy and sexual misconduct between priests and women in the context of spiritual direction.Seeing to constructively build a broader understanding of transgressive and abusive behaviour by clergy in the Church, this is vital reading for any academic of Theology, Religious Studies, Psychology and Law who wants to better understand the dynamics at work in these instances of abuse.

The Archbishops of Canterbury Series

Charles Longley was Archbishop of Canterbury in the mid-1860s, at a crucial period for the development of the Church of England and the Anglican Communion. He was centrally involved in a series of major controversies concerning theological radicalism, ritualism, and the identity of the established church. He also inaugurated the first Lambeth Conference in 1867, with far-reaching consequences for international Anglicanism. This is the first ever study of Archbishop Longley's career. The first half of the book examines the theological disputes which dominated his archiepiscopate. The second half offers selections with commentary from his sermons, tracts, speeches and letters, so that Longley's opinions can be heard at first hand.

Ashgate Contemporary Thinkers on Critical Musicology Series

This collection of studies represents the range of Rosand's contribution to the history and criticism of music of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Varied in focus and scope, each of these studies is directed toward developing an understanding of the ways in which music works. Taken together, the articles demonstrate how Rosand has opened entirely new prospects on seventeenth-century music and offered new insight into the more canonical repertoire of the eighteenth century.

This collection of studies by Ellen Rosand represents the range of her contribution to the history and criticism of music of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.  Varied in focus and scope, each of these studies is directed toward developing an understanding of the ways in which music works--from its function in representing the ideals of the Republic of Venice through its essential role in the emerging genre of opera, from the expressive mechanics of Monteverdi and Cavalli to those of Handel and Vivaldi.  With methodological flexibility, Rosand's analyses are responsive to the works themselves.  Exploring the mimetic significance of particular formal motifs and scenic conventions, the intimate relationship of music and text, or a composer's dramatic choices, discovering a new musical personality (Barbara Strozzi) or the historical and cultural circumstances, the practical and creative dynamics of an emerging dramatic art (opera in Venice), she has opened entirely new prospects on seventeenth-century music and offered new insight into the more canonical repertoire of the eighteenth century.

Routledge New Religions

George Ivanovitch Gurdjieff (c.1866-1949) is acknowledged as one of the most influential early teachers of a hybridised Eastern-Western esoteric spiritual tradition, and one of a few key influences on the contemporary New Age Movement and a myriad other alternative spiritualities and new religions. Positioning Gurdjieff's teachings within the field of New Religious Movements, this book examines the 'Work' (as Gurdjieff's system is commonly called), including his teachings presented in writings, music, and exercises known as 'Movements'. This critical introduction to the Gurdjieff tradition also provides an analysis of problems with unreliable sources and auto-mythology, examines major pupils and successors, and shows how the 'Work' functions in the contemporary spiritual marketplace. Offering an excellent introduction to anyone unfamiliar with Gurdjieff and his context, this book also provides further depth for scholars and an invaluable companion to literature examining Blavatsky, Steiner, Theosophy, and Anthroposophy.
