Pilgrimage, Landscape, and Identity

Pilgrimage, Landscape, and Identity: Reconstructing Sacred Geographies in Norway explores the ritual geography of a pilgrimage system that arose around medieval saints in Norway, a country now being transformed by petroleum riches, neoliberalism, migration and global warming. What it means to be Norwegian and Christian in this changing context is constantly being renegotiated. The contemporary revival of pilgrimage to the burial site of St. Olav at Nidaros Cathedral in Trondheim is one site where this negotiation takes place. St. Olav played a major role in the unification of regions of Norway into a nation united by Christian law and faith, though most contemporary pilgrims have only a passing interest in the historical background of the pilgrimage. The pilgrimage network comprises a wide variety of participants: individuals, casual groups, guided group pilgrimages, activist pilgrims raising awareness for causes such as climate change and hospice services, as well as increasing numbers of local and foreign pilgrims of various ages, government officials, pilgrimage activists, and pilgrimage priests supplied by the Church of Norway (Lutheran). Part of the study focuses on the Olavsfest, a cultural and music festival that engages the heritage of St. Olav and the Church of Norway through theater, music, lectures, and discussions, and theological and interreligious conversations. This festival offers an opportunity for creative and critical engagement with a difficult historical figure and his contested, violent heritage and constitutes one of the ways in which this pilgrimage network represents a critical Protestant tradition engaging a legacy through ritual creativity. This study maps how pilgrims, hosts, church officials, and government officials participate in reshaping narratives of landscape, sacrality, and pilgrimage as a symbol of life journey, nation, identity, Christianity, and Protestant reflections on the durability of medieval Catholic saints.

Of Divine Economy

Of Divine Economy

Of Divine Economy expands upon the economic connotations of the theological doctrine of redemption. The term redemption refers to a process of 'buying back' slaves from conditions of oppression, and thus compares the crux of Christian dogma to an economic exchange involving human emancipation. The phrase 'miraculous exchanges' refers to the problem of redemptive divine and human agency in an economic context in which many who desire justice and equity feel powerless and hopeless. The originality of Divine Economy lies not only in its theological reading of redemption as an economic metaphor, but also in its focus on the economic subtexts of Christian tradition and how they form and are formed by society's economic constructions. Grau's unique project merges together economic, historical, and psycho-social analysis with theological critique and construction.

Rethinking Mission in the Postcolony

Rethinking Mission in the Postcolony

This is a progressive Christian approach to soteriology and missiology in a global, postcolonial context. Much of the history of mission has been interlaced with imperial structures. Often the colonial and economic impulses of the colonial powers overshadow some of the counter-imperial tendencies of biblical texts and ecclesial communities. Evangelical missionary theologies have led to cultural genocide. These missionary practices have been heavily critiqued in the last few decades. Christian progressives have been in the forefront of the critique of mission, but have often responded in ways that reject the of mission of the word, instead highlighting a mission focused on developmental concerns that obscures the Christian content but continues to push Western capitalist structures into 'developing' postcolonial societies. Instead, this book proposes an integration of gospel and culture. It aims to steer a third course towards an integration of the knowledge and treasures, the losses and laments of Christianities forged in colonizing and colonized societies. Proposing that these Christianities are more alike than different, and in need of each other for reconciliation of communities facing the ecological and economic collapse at the limits of what the planet can carry.

Bereits seit meiner fr hen Kindheit bin ich ein gro er Kunstfan. So konnte ich schon mit sechs Jahren in den Genuss der Malerei kommen und mir selbst die verschiedenen Stilrichtungen beibringen. Meine Gem lde sind vielseitig, vielschichtig und experimentell: von figurativ, konkret bis zum Abstrakten findet sich fast alles auf meiner Farbpalette. Aber besonders die abstrakte Malerei hat es mir angetan. Es gibt nur wenig im Bereich der Kunst, was mir nicht zusagt. Ich gehe mit gro er Neugierde auf alles zu, was sich im Laufe der Zeit in der Kunstwelt tut. Mein Lebenswunsch, selbst stolzer K nstler zu sein, sollte sich sp t - daf r umso intensiver - verwirklichen. Diese Erlebnisse m chte ich auch Ihnen, liebe Leserinnen und Leser, nahe bringen. Ich m chte Sie mit diesem Buch, das die gesammelten Presseberichte ber mich als K nstler enth lt, einladen zu meiner Reise, die mich vom unbekannten K nstler bis hin zu berregionalen TV-Auftritten f hrte. Obendrein ist es mir ein Anliegen, Einblicke in die Welt meines vielseitigen Stils zu geben. Eine Art Hilfestellung also, um den Leser meine Kunst ein wenig n her zu bringen, sie zu verstehen. Denn Kunst braucht die ffentlichkeit um ihre Wirkung entfalten zu k nnen. Aber was ist es, was an der so sehr begeistert? Christoph Maria Schlingensief schrieb: Kunst wird erst dann interessant, wenn wir vor irgend etwas stehen, das wir nicht restlos erkl ren k nnen. Manchmal dauert es eben ein bisschen l nger bis wir etwas verstehen. Mal wenig l nger, mal viel l nger, mal sehr viel l nger. Und genau an dieser Stelle kommt der K nstler und seine Intensionen ins Spiel.

Vielleicht eine Italienreise mit der Familie in einem T3 Westfalia, oder doch lieber ein Kurztrip zu einen Campingplatz? Eines bleibt gewiss, jeder Volkswagenfan hat eine Geschichte zu erz hlen.

The daughter of an English merchant father and Chinese mother, Winnifred Eaton (1875-1954) was a wildly popular fiction writer in her time. Born in Montreal, Eaton lived in Jamaica and several places in the United States before settling in Alberta. Her books, many of them published under the Japanese pseudonym Onoto Watanna, encompass the experiences of marginalized women in Canada, Jamaica, the United States, and a romantic, imagined Japan. Marion: The Story of an Artist's Model is Eaton's only book that explicitly deals with being "foreign" in Canada. The novel follows the life of "half-foreign" Marion Ascough - a character based on Eaton's own sister - while never identifying her "foreignness." Escaping the unrelenting racial discrimination her family endures in Quebec, Marion follows her dream of being an artist by moving to New York, where she becomes "Canadian" instead of ethnic - a more palatable foreignness. Having successfully stripped herself of her ethnicity, Marion continues to experience discrimination and objectification as a woman, failing as an artist and becoming an artist's model. Karen Skinazi's introduction to Eaton's fascinating narrative draws attention to the fact that although the novel uses many of the conventions of the "race secret" story, this time the secret is never revealed. This new edition of Marion: The Story of An Artist's Model brings back into print a compelling and sophisticated treasure of Asian Canadian/American fiction that offers a rare perspective on ethnicity, gender, and identity.
