Notes for a Decolonial Political Theology

Notes for a Decolonial Political Theology

At the crossroads of ethics poetics and politics this innovative book outlines a series of notes to decolonize political theology. The author proposes counter-hegemonic forms of reading which deconstruct domination by embracing fragility. The book opens with a diapason of prejudicelessness as a decolonial key focusing on prejudices that hinder critical attention to a colonial political theology that perpetuates hatred. The first set of notes aims to ‘de-orientalize the Semite’ by reading midrashic and biblical texts in the present context the second seeks to decolonize language by exploring the power of translation and the third ponders decolonial theo-logics to outline a justice of the other. Connecting a number of fields authors and epistemologies the book addresses the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and brings together Jewish thought continental philosophy and Latin American perspectives. It engages with a range of thinkers including Benjamin and Arendt and features an interview with Enrique Dussel. This is an important methodological proposal for interdisciplinary and intercultural political theology and a valuable contribution towards rethinking the paradigm of political theology beyond its Eurocentric and colonialist premises. | Notes for a Decolonial Political Theology

To students of Indian Culture interested in tracing the influence of India in the institutions of her Cultural Colonies as also to Anthropologists the Religious Festivals and Court Ceremonies which still remain the most characteristic features of Siamese social life offer an important field for research.

Incorrect Thoughts Notes on Our Wayward Culture

Incorrect Thoughts Notes on Our Wayward Culture

In this new volume of political essays and social commentary John Leo offers a lively alternative to the Washington-oriented slant of much political journalism. Rejecting the dry insider's air of knowing punditry Leo's conversational style and acerbic wit engage the reader with his insightful and humorous views of what is going on in education law advertising television the news media language and the various liberation movements that are shaping-and sometimes convulsing-the country. The unifying thread of Incorrect Thoughts is the emergence of Political Correctness and its diffusion throughout American social and cultural life. Most of the media have viewed the rise of PC as a collection of unimportant oddball anecdotes but Leo perceives it as a coherent social movement sweeping through colleges and schools the courts the media the feminist movement and the art world. Its goals are traditional goals of the left-equality inclusion liberation racial justice-but as Leo notes the tactics employed are often less than noble and the contempt for tradition standards and Western culture has grown each year. The new orthodoxy has developed a taste for censorship and coercion. Speech codes and anti-harassment policies are used as weapons to silence and intimidate opponents. Speakers have been shouted down and whole editions of college newspapers stolen to keep students from reading the arguments of conservatives and moderates. Readers will find here judicious and often devastating appraisals of self-esteem and therapeutic trends in education of efforts to revamp history along multicultural lines and of the extremities and absurdities of identity politics among other of the latest fashions in radical chic. Drawing from ideas first presented in his U. S. News and World Report columns Leo charts the political fever of a contentious and disordered period in American society. At the same time his pointed humor long-term perspective and strong moral edge ensures his continuing importance to the debates of our time. This book will interest those who share Leo's concerns as well as those who appreciate models for incisive political commentary. | Incorrect Thoughts Notes on Our Wayward Culture

Notes from the Margins The Gay Analyst's Subjectivity in the Treatment Setting

Notes from the Margins The Gay Analyst's Subjectivity in the Treatment Setting

Much has been written about the impact of gender and sexual orientation on the intersubjective field. Yet remarkably little has been written about the unique dilemmas faced by gay clinicians who treat patients of different genders and sexual orientations. Given the particularities of growing up gay in our culture issues of secrecy shame alienation difference and internalized homophobia necessarily enter into any gay therapist's developmental history. These factors have a shaping impact on the gay analyst's sensibility on the way he learns to listen to his patients. In Notes from the Margins Eric Sherman courageously reveals a wide range of subjective reactions to eight different patients. In detailed clinical vignettes that highlight his thoughts feelings personal history and countertransference struggles he conveys the experiential immediacy of working as an analyst-and more specifically as a gay analyst. Although Sherman is not the first author to write thoughtfully about working in the countertransference he is among the very few to portray analytic work particularly in the working through of enactments as an often untidy affair marked not only by success but also by the blind spots and insecurities that contribute to failure. Notes from the Margins is not only an illuminating overview of the special challenges faced by gay and lesbian analysts but a window to grasping the messy realities intrinsic to the psychotherapeutic process. | Notes from the Margins The Gay Analyst's Subjectivity in the Treatment Setting

Clement of Alexandria Miscellanies Book 7 The Greek Text with Introduction Translation Notes Dissertations and Indices

Published in 1987: This posthumous publication (1902) on the important Miscellanies of Clement includes the complete Greek text of Book Seven with English translation and detailed notes. This is preceded by an extensive introduction based on the editor’s lectures discussing Christianity and philosophy in Clement's foundational work which relates to a Victorian debate concerning the supposed pollution of 'pure' Christianity by 'alien' Greek thought. The Editor argued that not only had Hellenism been present from the earliest days of Christianity but also that the interaction between the two had resulted in a 'de-secularization of philosophy'. He also emphasised Clement's view that the archetypal Christian ought to live 'as much by prayer and love as by knowledge and thought'. | Clement of Alexandria Miscellanies Book 7 The Greek Text with Introduction Translation Notes Dissertations and Indices

Life and the Student Roadside Notes on Human Nature Society and Letters

Life and the Student Roadside Notes on Human Nature Society and Letters

Life and the Student (1927) with a new introduction by Jonathan B. Imber is a compilation of reflections commentaries and letters from other scholars that Charles Horton Cooley accumulated throughout his life. The book includes personal passages on various topics within the realms of reading and writing thinking art science sociology academia religion and human nature. There is no formal structure to the book except the literary sense that organizes these thoughts and observations about life. It is impossible to categorize these widely ranging commentaries. They include discussions of the automobile the impressionable nature of young people the claim that the question of racial superiority is still unresolved his belief that eugenists are inconsistent in their views and more. Cooley's work sought to emphasize the connection between society and the individual. He believed that the two could only be understood in relationship to each other. While researching the effects of social responses and social participation he created the concept of the looking-glass self which is the theory that a person's sense of self grows out of interpersonal interactions and the perceptions of others. Cooley also showed that social life and the relationship between groups and communities stems from mental phenomena. | Life and the Student Roadside Notes on Human Nature Society and Letters

A Darkening Green Notes on Harvard the 1950s and the End of Innocence

A Darkening Green Notes on Harvard the 1950s and the End of Innocence

This is a book about the end of childhood. Much of it is drawn directly from a diary the author kept while he was a bright but insecure freshman at Harvard in the 1950s. From these pages emerges a precise description of the raw half-understood experience of late adolescence-the anguish and arguments the rivalry and anxiety about sex the facile cynicism and desperate fumblings for purpose the bull sessions held late at night-just as Peter Prescott recorded them only hours after the event. These diary excerpts are contained in a narrative that examines that freshman experience from a vantage point of twenty years. Thus we are able to look at the past with a double perspective: The exact record unclouded by memory or nostalgia of what was said and done is set in a structure that reveals the form of the experience. The result is an ironic witty and often moving book. Writing with some compassion and even more asperity Peter S. Prescott not only captures the conflicts and emotions of a single year but probes beneath the surface of memory to explore certain tribal customs and rites of passage as they are played out in the classrooms and living quarters of the college. A few famous people-T. S. Eliot and Edith Sitwell among them-play brief parts in this chronicle but young Prescott's attention was primarily engaged in his struggle with his extravagant roommates and an assortment of eccentric undergraduates. | A Darkening Green Notes on Harvard the 1950s and the End of Innocence

Striking Images Iconoclasms Past and Present

Striking Images Iconoclasms Past and Present

All cultures make and break images. Striking Images Iconoclasms Past and Present explores how and why people have made and modified images and other cultural material from pre-history into the 21st century. With its impressive chronological sweep and disciplinary breadth this is the first book about iconoclasm (the breaking of images) and the transformation of broader sets of signs that includes contributions from archaeologists curators and museum conservators as well as historians of art literature and religious studies. The chapters examine themes critical to the study of iconoclasm: violence punishment memory intentionality ruins and relics and their survival. The conclusion shows how cross-disciplinary debate amongst the contributors informed Tate Britain’s 'Art under Attack' exhibition (2013) and addresses the challenges iconoclasm presents to the modern museum. By juxtaposing objects and places usually considered in isolation Striking Images raises provocative questions about our understandings of cross-cultural differences and the value of representational objects from the broken swords of pre-historical bog graves to the Bamiyan Buddhas and contemporary art. Are any such objects ever ’finished’ or are they simply subject to constant transformation? In dialogue with each other the essays consider this question and expand the field of iconoclasm - and cultural - studies.
