Hate is unveiled on our streets. Politics is polarized and the cohesion of communities is under stress and threat. Religious and theological leaders appear compromised or paralyzed. Robert S. Heaney grew up in a Northern Ireland where enmity paraded itself and policed the boundaries between segregated identities and aspirations. Such conflict, with deep historic roots, is inextricably linked to religion and colonization. The theologizing of colonialism, and the ongoing implications of colonialism, cannot be ignored by those who wish to understand the most intractable of human conflicts. Religious adherents and scholars are increasingly seeking to understand colonialism and decolonization in theological terms. The field of post-colonial studies, across a range of contexts and in a complex network of inter-disciplinary analyses, has emerged as a major scholarly movement seeking to provide resources for such a task. Theologians have increasingly seen the field as a resource and have made their own contributions to its development. However, depending as it does on a series of theoretical and technical commitments, post-colonialism remains inaccessible to the uninitiated. Beginning with his own particular context of formation, in this book Heaney provides an accessible introduction to post-colonial theology.

This is the first of two volumes of essays from the Ecclesiological Investigations International Research Network's 14th International Conference focused on decolonizing churches and theology, addressing oppressions based on gender, racial, and ethnic identities; economic inequality; social vulnerabilities; climate change and global challenges such as pandemics, neoliberalism, and the role of information technology in modern society, all connected with the topic of decolonization. The essays in this volume focus on decoloniality in religious and theological dialogue, migration, history, and education, written from historical, dogmatic, social scientific, and liturgical perspectives. Raimundo C. Barreto is an associate professor of World Christianity at Princeton Theological Seminary, USA. His most recent publications include Protesting Poverty: Protestants, Social Ethics and the Poor in Brazil (2023) and the co-edited volume Alterity and the Evasion of Justice in World Christianity (2023).

"The Oxford Handbook of Postcolonial Biblical Criticism is a comprehensive treatment of a relatively new form of scholarship-one of the most compelling and contested theories to emerge in recent times, and a topic that actively seeks to expand the ways in which the Bible can be studied, interpreted, and applied. Generally speaking, postcolonialism aims to critique and dismantle hegemonic worldviews and power structures, while giving voice to previously marginalized peoples and systems of thought. This approach, often varied in form, has inevitably engaged with the text and reception of the Bible, a scripture that Western colonizers introduced to-and often imposed upon-their colonial subjects. With a globally diverse list of contributors, the Handbook aims to cover the perspective and context of the authors of the Bible, as well as the modern experiences of imperialism, resistance, decolonization, and nationalism. Moreover, the volume includes both a theoretical overview and an exploration of how the field intersects with related areas, such as gender studies, race, postmodernism, and liberation theology"--

Diese Studie entwirft eine Typologie des Verschwindens in der Literatur und spannt dabei den Bogen von vormodernen Texten bis hin zur unmittelbaren Gegenwartsliteratur. Überall auf der Welt verschwinden Menschen: Sie werden entführt, verschleppt, heimlich ermordet; sie verlaufen sich oder gehen einfach weg. Im Mittelpunkt steht die Frage, ob das Verschwinden als paradigmatisches Symptom der Moderne und Postmoderne angesehen werden kann. Untersucht werden zahlreiche literarische Texte, von Hawthorne über Poe, Borges, Auster bis hin zu Danielewski. Eine ausführliche Analyse gilt dem Werk Roberto Bolaños, der als Autor des Verschwindens schlechthin präsentiert wird.
