The Liminality of Fairies Readings in Late Medieval English and Scottish Romance

The Liminality of Fairies Readings in Late Medieval English and Scottish Romance

Examining the fairies of medieval romance as liminal beings this book draws on anthropological and philosophical studies of liminality to combine folkloristic insights into the nature of fairies with close readings of selected romance texts. Tracing different meanings and manifestations of liminality in Sir Gawain and the Green Knight Sir Orfeo Sir Launfal Thomas of Erceldoune and Robert Henryson’s Orpheus and Eurydice the volume offers a comprehensive theory of liminality rooted in structuralist anthropology and poststructuralist theory. Arguing that romance fairies both embody and represent the liminal The Liminality of Fairies posits and answers fundamental theoretical questions about the limits of representation and the relationship between romance hermeneutics and criticism. The interdisciplinary nature of the argument will appeal not just to medievalists and literary critics but also to anthropologists folklorists as well as scholars working within the fields of cultural history and contemporary literary theory. | The Liminality of Fairies Readings in Late Medieval English and Scottish Romance

God and the Book of Nature Experiments in Theology of Science

God and the Book of Nature Experiments in Theology of Science

God and the Book of Nature develops theological views of the natural sciences in light of the recent theological turn in science-and-religion scholarship and the ‘science-engaged theology’ movement. Centered around the Book of Nature metaphor it brings together contributions by theologians natural scientists and philosophers based in Europe and North America. They provide an exploration of complementary (and even contesting) readings of the Book of Nature particularly in light of the vexing questions that arise around essentialism and unity in the field of science and religion. Taking an experimental and open-ended approach the volume does not attempt to unify the readings into a single ‘plot’ that defines the Book of Nature still less a single ‘theology of nature’ but instead it represents a variety of hermeneutical stances. Overall the book embraces a constructive theological attitude toward the modern sciences and makes significant contributions to the research literature in science and religion. | God and the Book of Nature Experiments in Theology of Science

The People of the Book Drama Fellowship and Religion

The People of the Book Drama Fellowship and Religion

Judaism has long derived its identity from its sacred books. The book or scroll - rather than the image or idol - has been emblematic of Jewish faith and tradition. The People of the Book presents a study of a group of Orthodox Jews all of whom live in the modern world engaged in the time-honored practice of lernen the repeated review and ritualized study of the sacred texts. In preserving one of the activities of Jewish life Samuel C. Heilman argues these are the genuine People of the Book. For two years Heilman participated in and observed five study circles in New York and Jerusalem engaged in the avocation of lernen the Talmud the great corpus of Jewish law lore and tradition. These groups made up of men who felt the ritualized study of sacred texts to be not only a religious obligation but also an appealing way to spend their evenings weekends and holidays assembled together under the guidance of a teacher to review the holy books of their people. Having become part of this world the author is able to provide first-hand observation of the workings of the study circle. Heilman's study moves beyond the merely descriptive into an analysis of the nature and meaning of activity he observed. To explain the character and appeal of the study groups he employs three concepts: drama fellowship and religion. Inherent to the life of the study circle are various sorts of drama: social dramas playing out social relationships cultural performances reenacting the Jewish world view and interactional dramas and word plays involving the intricacies of the recitation and translation process. This book will be of interest to anthropologists and those interested in the academic study of religion. | The People of the Book Drama Fellowship and Religion

Parker Lopez and Stone's The Book of Mormon

Parker Lopez and Stone's The Book of Mormon

'Hasa Diga Eebowai' In 2011 a musical full of curse words and Mormon missionaries swept that year’s Tony Awards and was praised as a triumphant return of the American musical. This book explores the inherent achievements (and failures) of The Book of Mormon—one of the most ambitious and problematic musicals to achieve widespread success. The creative team members—Matt Parker Trey Stone and composer Robert Lopez—were collectively known for their aggressive use of taboo subjects and crude punchy humor. Using the metaphor of boxing Granger explores the metaphorical punches the trio delivers and ruminates over the less-discussed ideological wounds that their style of shock absurdism might leave behind. This careful examination of where The Book of Mormon succeeds and fails is sure to challenge discussion of our understanding of musical comedy and our appreciation for this cultural landmark in theatre. | Parker Lopez and Stone's The Book of Mormon
