Ethics and Christian Musicking

Ethics and Christian Musicking

The relationship between musical activity and ethical significance occupies long traditions of thought and reflection both within Christianity and beyond. From concerns regarding music and the passions in early Christian writings through to moral panics regarding rock music in the 20th century Christians have often gravitated to the view that music can become morally weighted building a range of normative practices and prescriptions upon particular modes of ethical judgment. But how should we think about ethics and Christian musical activity in the contemporary world? As studies of Christian musicking have moved to incorporate the experiences agencies and relationships of congregations ethical questions have become implicit in new ways in a range of recent research - how do communities negotiate questions of value in music? How are processes of encounter with a variety of different others negotiated through musical activity? What responsibilities arise within musical communities? This volume seeks to expand this conversation. Divided into four sections the book covers the relationship of Christian musicking to the body; responsibilities and values; identity and encounter; and notions of the self. The result is a wide-ranging perspective on music as an ethical practice particularly as it relates to contemporary religious and spiritual communities. This collection is an important milestone at the intersection of ethnomusicology musicology religious studies and theology. It will be a vital reference for scholars and practitioners reflecting on the values and practices of worshipping communities in the contemporary world. | Ethics and Christian Musicking

Understanding Early Christian Art

Understanding Early Christian Art

Surveying the content and character of early Christian iconography from the third to the sixth century CE this substantially revised and updated new edition of Understanding Early Christian Art makes the critical tools of art historians accessible to students. It opens by discussing a series of questions pertaining to the evidence itself and how scholars through the centuries have regarded this material as expressing and transmitting aspects of the developing faith and practice of early adherents of Christianity. It considers possible sources for the various motifs and the complex relationship between words and images as well as the importance of studying visual and material culture alongside theological and liturgical texts. Rather than organising surviving examples by medium or chronology the chapters categorise the evidence according to their general iconographic type such as generic symbols biblical narratives and portraits. Each chapter takes up important questions of visual culture formal style and the ways in which the iconography is distinct from or shows parallels with contemporary documentary sources like sermons exegetical works catechetical lectures or dogmatic treatises. Concluding with a discussion of the late-emerging depictions of Jesus’s crucifixion resurrection and ascension it remains a valuable guide to comprehending the complex theology history and context of Christian art. Augmented by over 140 full-colour images accompanied by parallel text the interdisciplinary and boundary-breaking approach taken in this extensively revised edition of Understanding Early Christian Art enables students and scholars in fields such as religion and art history to further their understanding and knowledge of the art of the early Christian era.

Conservative Christian Politics in Russia and the United States Dreaming of Christian nations

Conservative Christian Politics in Russia and the United States Dreaming of Christian nations

This book explores the politics of conservative Christian churches and social movements in Russia and the United States focusing on their similar concerns but very different modes of political engagement. Whilst secularisation continues to chip away at religious adherence and practice in Europe religion is often quite rightly seen as an influential force in the politics of the United States and more questionably as a significant influence in contemporary Russia. This book looks at the broad social movement making up the US Christian Right and the profoundly hierarchical leadership of the Russian Orthodox Church as socially conservative actors and some of the ways they have engaged in contemporary politics. Both are seeking to halt the perceived drift towards a more secular political order; both face significant challenges in handling the consequences of secularism pluralism and liberal individualism; and both believe that their nations can only be great if they remain true to their religious heritage. In exploring their experience the book focuses on shared and different elements in their diagnosis of what is wrong with their societies and how this affects their policy intervention over issues such as religious and ethnic belonging sexual orientation and education. Drawing on political sociological and religious studies this work will be a useful reference for students and scholars of religion and politics Russian politics and American politics. | Conservative Christian Politics in Russia and the United States Dreaming of Christian nations

The First Christian Communities 32 - 380 CE Quiet Christians Visible Martyrs and Compelling Texts

This concise history of how the Christian Church grew between 32 and 380 focuses on the anonymous Christians who formed diverse congregations as they guided their communities through the age of the Apostles violent martyrdoms and to the establishment of the Roman Church. Readers will understand why people converted to Christianity in the first three centuries and learn about the rich diversity of the early church as people interpreted the new religion in different ways. This book explores how Christian interactions with the Roman empire led to violent persecutions and martyrdoms and eventually the fourth-century establishment of the top-down Roman Church. Readers also become familiar with Christian texts during this period – some became Scripture and some were rejected but all were written to make sense of the Jewish and Christian experience in the Roman Empire. These written memories shaped the future of the church. It also explores how early Christian lives were shaped by the religious rituals and preaching of their new and changing faith. In addition maps illustrations and charts of Christian texts help tell this fascinating story. The First Christian Communities 32 - 380 CE is an accessible and valuable resource suitable for students working on Christian history and Roman and Late Antique social political and religious history as well as general readers who are interested in the origins of Christianity. | The First Christian Communities 32 - 380 CE Quiet Christians Visible Martyrs and Compelling Texts
