Abstract

Cet ouvrage, considérable, monumental non pas tant par sa taille, que par la somme d’érudition et de savoir qu’il représente, l’ampleur de sa documentation et le très grand intérêt de son sujet, cet ouvrage est un événement.Jean Louis Schefer, écrivain, historien, critique d’art, philosophe, s’est engagé totalement dans cette recherche.Tout part de la célèbre prédelle de Paolo Uccello, Le Miracle de l’hostie (circa 1467) où l’on voit une hostie consacrée saigner à la suite du sacrilège qu’a commis sur elle un usurier juif à qui elle a été remise pour solder une dette. Jean Louis Schefer s’est interrogé sur la signification de cette réprésentation, ses origines, ses implications, sa postérité (jusqu’au mythe de Dracula, par exemple!). Elles mettent en cause la théologie, le rituel catholique à travers les sacrements, la monnaie (puisque l’agneau, par exemple a longtemps figuré sur les pièces frappées au Moyen-Âge et que la théorie monétaire de Moyen-Âge apparaît inséparable de l’évolution du signe sacré. Elles interrogent la fondation et la gestion morale des images dans notre culture. Elles démontent les mécanismes par lesquels s’est instauré le dogme de l’incarnation, de la transsubstantiation et aussi les stratégies d’accréditation qui s’en sont suivies (les miracles, les légendes).L’Hostie profanée, histoire d’une fiction théologique, abondamment illustré in texte et hors texte, contenant de nombreux documents légendaires, rituels ou doctrinaux pour la première fois traduits (du latin, de l’italien, de l’allemand) est un ouvrage irremplaçable pour la compréhension du monde occidental chrétien, notre monde.

Abstract

The question of the British presence in Anglo-Saxon England readdressed by archaeologists, historians, linguists, and place-name specialists. The papers collected here seek to shed new light on the complex issue of the number and role of native Britons in Anglo-Saxon England by bringing together contributions from different disciplinary specialists and exploring the interfaces between various categories of knowledge about the past. They assemble both a substantial body of evidence concerning the presence of Britons and offer a variety of approaches to the central issues of the scale of that presence and its significance across the seven centuries of Anglo-Saxon England. The number of native Britons, and their role, in Anglo-Saxon England has been hotly debated for generations; the English were seen as Germanic in the nineteenth century, but the twentieth saw a reinvention of the German `past'. Today, the scholarly community is as deeply divided as ever on the issue: place-name specialists have consistently preferred minimalist interpretations, privileging migration from Germany, while other disciplinary groups have been less united in their views, with many archaeologists and historians viewing the British presence, potentially at least, as numerically significant or even dominant. The papers collected here seek to shed new light on this complex issue, by bringing together contributions from different disciplinary specialists and exploring the interfaces between various categories of knowledge about the past. They assemble both a substantial body of evidence concerning the presence of Britons and offer a variety of approaches to the central issues of the scale of that presence and its significance across the seven centuries of Anglo-Saxon England.

Abstract

The Friday Masowe apostolics of Zimbabwe refer to themselves as "the Christians who don't read the Bible." They claim they do not need the Bible because they receive the Word of God "live and direct" from the Holy Spirit. In this insightful and sensitive historical ethnography, Matthew Engelke documents how this rejection of scripture speaks to longstanding concerns within Christianity over mediation and authority. The Bible, of course, has been a key medium through which Christians have recognized God's presence. But the apostolics perceive scripture as an unnecessary, even dangerous, mediator. For them, the materiality of the Bible marks a distance from the divine and prohibits the realization of a live and direct faith. Situating the Masowe case within a broad comparative framework, Engelke shows how their rejection of textual authority poses a problem of presence-which is to say, how the religious subject defines, and claims to construct, a relationship with the spiritual world through the semiotic potentials of language, actions, and objects. Written in a lively and accessible style, A Problem of Presence makes important contributions to the anthropology of Christianity, the history of religions in Africa, semiotics, and material culture studies.

Abstract

Dit boek brengt de meest vooraanstaande onderzoekers uit Nederland en Vlaanderen op het gebied van arbeid en vrije tijd bij elkaar. Ontwikkelingen in de tijdsbesteding op beide terreinen worden in hun onderlinge samenhang geanalyseerd. Dat levert antwoorden op actuele vragen als: zijn we inderdaad op weg naar een 24-uurseconomie? Waarom besteden jongeren hun vrije tijd anders dan ouderen? Beleven allochtonen en autochtonen het fenomeen 'tijd' echt zo anders als we soms denken? En zijn loopbaanambities wel bestand tegen de praktijk van het combineren van betaald werk en zorg voor het gezin? Dit boek zet de nieuwste inzichten en trends met betrekking tot onze tijdsbesteding toegankelijk uiteen voor academici, professionals, beleidsmakers en studenten. Inhoudsopgave : Hoofdstuk 1. Alles had zjn tijd Hoofdstuk 2. Los en vast in de vrije tijd Hoofdstuk 3. Werken op afwijkende tijden Hoofdstuk 4. Dimmende flexibiliteit: loopbaanperspectieven van Belgische jongvolwassenen Hoofdstuk 5. Nieuwe tijdsordening als taboe: pleidooi voor innovatief arbeidstijdmanagement Hoofdstuk 6. Tijd + Etniciteit = Etnicitijd ? Hoofdstuk 7. De Nederlandse tijdsordening onderzocht Hoofdstuk 8. Over verandering van gewoonten
