Charts the development of progressive Christianity’s engagement with modern science, historical criticism, and liberal humanism Christians who have doubts about the existence of God? Who do not believe in the divinity of Jesus? Who reject the accuracy of the Bible? The New Heretics explores the development of progressive Christianity, a movement of Christians who do not reject their identity as Christians, but who believe Christianity must be updated for today’s times and take into consideration modern science, historical criticism, and liberal humanism. Drawing on three years of ethnographic fieldwork in North America, Rebekka King focuses on testimonies of deconversion, collective reading practices, and the ways in which religious beliefs and practices are adapted to fit secular lives. King introduces the concept of “lived secularity” as a category with which to examine the ways in which religiosity often is entangled with and subsumed by secular identities over and against religious ones. This theoretical framework provides insight into the study of religious and cultural hybridity, new emerging groups such as “the nones,” atheism, religious apostasy, and multi-religious identities. The New Heretics pays close attention to the ways that progressive Christians understand themselves vis-?-vis a conservative or fundamentalist Christian “other,” providing context concerning the presumed divide between the religious right and the religious left. King shows that while it might be tempting to think of progressive Christians as atheists, there are religious and moral dimensions to their disbelief. For progressive Christians the act of questioning and rejecting God—alongside other theological tenets—is framed as a moral activity. Ultimately, the book showcases the importance of engaging with the ethics of belief in understanding contemporary Christianity.

The volume In Need of a Master: Politics, Theology, and Radical Democracy discusses how our so-called "postmodern age" of widespread ideological critique paves the way for reactionary and conservative political movements. At center stage is the question of whether these movements can and must be – contrary to widespread beliefs among liberal elites – interpreted both as a symptom of a political awakening in the horizon of political theology in our era of immanence, as well as perhaps the perilous end of democracy as we know it. The book brings to the fore political theology as the hidden agenda of politics and presents at the same time Christian and Jewish theological traditions as an antidote to a global empire with its often unacknowledged rule of immanence.
Since the late twentieth century, letters in literature have seen a remarkable renaissance. The prominence of letters in recent fiction is due in part to the rediscovery, by contemporary writers, of letters as an effective tool for rendering aspects of historicity, liminality, marginalization and the expression of subjectivity vis- -vis an 'other'; it is also due, however, to the artistically challenging inclusion of the new electronic media of communication into fiction. While studies of epistolary fiction have so far concentrated on the eighteenth century and on thematic concerns, this volume charts the epistolary renaissance in recent literature, entering new territory by also focusing on the aesthetic implications of the epistolary mode. In particular, the essays in this volume illuminate the potential of the epistolary (including digital forms) for rendering contemporary sensitivities. The volume thus offers a comprehensive assessment of letter narratives in contemporary literature. Through its focus on the aesthetic and structural aspects of new epistolary fiction, the inclusion of various narrative forms, and the consideration of both conventional letters and their new digital kindred, The Epistolary Renaissance offers novel insight into a multi-facetted (re)new(ed) genre.

Описание: Die interdisziplin?re Studie beleuchtet die Rezeption der Glasmalerei in der Schweiz im Kontext der Nationenbildung im langen 19. Jahrhundert. Im Zentrum steht das kleinformatige Glasbild aus der fr?hen Neuzeit, das von der Kunstforschung als nationales Kunstdenkmal beurteilt wurde. Besondere Beachtung fanden die gemeinsamen Schenkungen von Wappenscheiben aller eidgen?ssischen Orte an einen B?ndnispartner – die Standesscheibenzyklen. Sie wurden zu Zeugnissen einer geeinten Eidgenossenschaft zur Zeit ihrer politischen und kulturellen Bl?te im 15./16. Jahrhundert erhoben. Mit der Belebung des Glasmalerei-Handwerks im 19. Jahrhundert erwachte auch der Wunsch, nach alter Tradition Standesscheiben zu stiften. Gepr?gt von einer idealisierenden Geschichts- und Staatsauffassung entstanden im 19. und 20. Jahrhundert neue Zyklen f?r national bedeutende Geb?ude, die symbolhaft die Einheit der Schweizerischen Eidgenossenschaft beschworen.

Everybody hates Mondays.
This Monday is particularly bad for the residents on Blegevej in the Northern part of Denmark.
Just before eight o'clock Monday morning, the entire neighborhood sinks into the ground in a matter of seconds when a giant sinkhole opens up underneath it.
Rebekka Franck is visiting a dear friend when she is swallowed up by the hole and ends up trapped inside a limestone mine.
Together with the surviving residents from the neighborhood, she tries to get by underground while waiting to be rescued.
When the body of one of the survivors turns up inside the mines, they suddenly know that not only do they face starvation and thirst, they also have a killer among them.
- It's laced with claustrophobic tension and characters that make your skin crawl.
