1- “Saint Eini in the Coptic tradition,”
(2021) Youssef, Youhanna
This commemoration of Saint Eirene is rarely mentioned in the liturgical calendars. There is a manuscript of beautiful. One column is in Coptic and the titles are in Arabic. The foliotation is Coptic uncial on the recto. The firsts and last quires are lost hence no colophon survives. However, we can estimate the date of the manuscript to be the early eighteenth century (?). The text commemorates saint Eirene her explanation is Peace.

6- “La lettre de Denys l’Aréopagite à Timothée comme texte liturgique, ”
(Pontificia Universidad Cataolica del Perao, Fondo Editorial, 2018) Youssef, Youhanna; Youssef, Youhanna
Résumé : Parfois il est difficile de suivre l’évolution de la liturgie copte, car il y en a plu sieurs traditions locales. Nous avons choisi un texte très peu connu de nos jours. Il s’agit d’une lettre de Denys l’Aéropagite, selon un manuscrit de la collection de l’église de Samannûd, qui se lit lors de la fête des Apôtres le 5 Abîb, 29 juin julien. Nous commençons par une introduc tion sur Denys l’Aréopagite, puis nous noterons que les manuscrits qui contiennent ce texte sont catalogués comme des manuscrits bibliques ou théologiques et rarement dans la caté gorie « liturgiques ». Nous expliquerons ensuite quand et où ce texte est entré dans la liturgie copte, à savoir via le rite melkite de Syrie puis d’Égypte, notamment au Caire où il passera à l’église voisine de Harat Zuwaila, pour être enfin diffusé dans les autres régions de l’Égypte, ce qui est reflété par le manuscrit de Samannnûd

A Cabinet of Curiosity: an early English japanned cabinet in the collections of the NGV
(National Gallery of Victoria, 2015) Martin, Matthew; Cains, Carol
In 2004, the National Gallery of Victoria was gifted an early seventeenth-century cabinet decorated in a fashion which imitates Asian lacquer work. This cabinet appears to belong to a small but little understood group of early seventeenth century objects which represent the earliest known examples of imitation Asian lacquer (‘japanned work”) produced for European markets. A number of questions about this cabinet–and the larger group of objects of which it forms a part–have yet to be answered. The place of manufacture of the cabinet (Europe or Asia) remains in doubt, as do the sources and character of the cabinet’s scheme of painted decoration: connections may be drawn with European print sources, Chinese and Japanese lacquer and porcelain motifs, Indian textiles and ivory carving. These questions raise the larger issue of the place of hybrid Asian-European artistic productions in the Early Modern encounter between the two cultural spheres. Through an examination of this cabinet in the broader context of lacquer and furniture exported to Europe from Asia in the seventeenth century, we will explore the cultural space these hybrid works occupy and how they facilitate Early Modern European imaginings of Asia.
'A Divine Attraction between Your Soul and Mine': George Whitefield and Same Sex Affection in 18th-Century Methodism
(2017-11-23) O'Brien, Glen
This article considers the blurred lines between male friendship and homoeroticism in eighteenth-century Methodism. It considers possible cases of transgressive male sexual acts among Methodist preachers, evaluates contemporary claims made about the sexual proclivities of leading Methodists, and considers the social location of 18th-century Methodism as a dangerous underworld of deviant religiosity whose centres of activity were often perched on the edge of sites of social exclusion. The ‘effeminacy’ of George Whitefield and the lack of heterosexual passion in his life are offered as a mode of examining the homosociality that existed within the heteronormative world of eighteenth-century Methodism.

This article explores imagery of the Magdalen and Francis of Assisi in mendicant circles in the late middle ages.
'A Good and Sensible Man': John Wesley’s Reading and Use of Jonathan Edwards.
(Wipf & Stock, 2017-10-20) O'Brien, Glen; Bezzant, Rhys S.
This chapter examines John Wesley's reading of Jonathan Edwards and the manner in which he mediated Edwards to 'the people called Methodist' through the editing, publishing, and dissemination of Edwards' works. It will include a consideration of the 1778 sermon, 'Some Account of the Late Work of God in America' in which Wesley co-opts Edwards for use in a historical narrative designed to legitimate Methodism as a genuine work of God as well as to extend Wesley's opposition to the democratic spirit that had led to the American Revolution. Wesley describes his own work in Georgia and the awakening in Northampton reported in Edwards' 'Faithful Narrative of a Surprising Work of God' (1736), as though they were two parts of a continuous and converging stream. In so doing he smooths over the historical complexities and continuities, rewriting history to serve his own purposes. Though Wesley's admiration for Edwards is clear his selective use of the latter's writings was guided by the conviction that they contained 'wholesome food...mixed with much deadly poison.'
A Leader without Authority: Mary Consuelo de la Cruz Batiz and Missionary Women at New Norcia
(eScholarship Research Centre, 2012-10) Massam, Katharine; Francis, Rosemary; Grimshaw, Patricia; Standish, Ann
In 1904 Mary Consuelo de la Cruz Batiz, orginally from Mexico, arrived in Western Australia with six other women who were to form a community of missionaries alongside the Spanish Benedictine monks at New Norcia. Consuelo, the sole English speaker in the group, became the director of the new college for Aboriginal girls and exercised significant responsibility within the mission town. Within the fragmentary sources, the glimpses of Consuelo Batiz in the Spanish-language records depict a woman widely appreciated by missionaries and Aborigines for her energy, dedication and capacity to lead. This material sits uncomfortably alongside evidence recorded in English that show Consuelo captive to prevailing racist assumptions, and with her authority constrained by a highly charged field of religious, cultural and gendered assumptions. This chapter considers the handful of sources documenting Consuelo’s time at New Norcia, and argues that the disparity between accounts may reflect tensions between the roles Consuelo exercised and the identities she navigated as a Spanish-speaking missionary woman in a British colonial context.
‘A Man in a Vessel,Once More’
(IKSiO PAN, 2019) Innemée, Karel
In one of the paintings in the Central Church of Abdallah-n-Irqi an enigmatic element can be seen: a small figure of a man in a jar. No satisfactory explanation for this detail has been found so far. Although a parallel representation seemed to have been discovered in Banganarti, it remains a unique and problematic representation. On the basis of a renewed investigation of the iconography of martyrs in the fourth century, the author proposes a new interpretation of the man in the vessel.

A Rose by Any Other Name? Personal Knowledge and Hermeneutics.
(Cambridge Scholars, 2010) Mulherin, Christopher
It is an interesting accident of history that in the space of a couple of years in the mid 20th century, two of the most significant critiques of objectivism and impersonal knowledge were published. Michael Polanyi's 'Personal Knowledge' was published in 1958 and Hans-Georg Gadamer's 'Truth and Method' in 1960. Yet apparently neither author was significantly influenced by the other. While protesting against objectivism and the notion that knowledge or understanding is the outcome of impersonal method, both Polanyi and Gadamer also rejected subjectivist and relativist implications of their work. In Polanyian terms both personal knowledge and Gadamerian hermeneutics have universal intent. The work of both authors was also universal in another way: Gadamer's hermeneutics was a universal analysis of the problem of all human understanding, and while Polanyi focussed initially on scientific knowing he soon found himself working towards a universal epistemology, or in his words, "an alternative ideal of knowledge, quite generally" (1958:vii). This presentation explores some parallels between Polanyi's personal knowledge and the tradition of Gadamerian hermeneutics and is motivated by three questions: 1. To what extent are the fields of philosophical hermeneutics and Polanyi's work on personal knowledge saying similar things albeit in different languages? 2. How can philosophical hermeneutics and Polanyi's personal knowledge mutually inform one another? 3. Is this a good problem? Can we move towards a fusion of Gadamerian universal hermeneutics and Polanyian personal knowledge?
A Time to Celebrate Achievements … and to Tackle the Next Big Challenge – Dialogue
(Sri Ramanuja Mission Trust, 2013-10-12) Fry, Ian; Fry, Ian
This paper is written in the context of a celebration of the achievements of Sri Ramanuja Mission Trust and its founder, Swamy Chaturvedi. It discusses the challenge for governments that have responsibility for education, training and community services at all levels in a nation in which one in every five people is a child under ten, another one in four are under 20, only one in three people are in the prime working period of 20 to 45 years of age, and only one in five are in the senior management pool of 45 to 65 which provides most political leaders. It notes that they come under pressure from commercial interests, especially those in the non-essential consumer goods sector, tourism and hospitality, and arms and defence procurement industries. It then refers to the added strains caused by the inversion of relationships between the White Western Christian Bloc and the World Majority Peoples, and the need for development of greater community cohesion through programs of dialogue between each of its faiths.
A Woman, a Coin and the Prosperity of Colossae
(Fellowship for Biblical Studies, 2019) Canavan, Rosemary
The discovery of a third coin attributed to Claudia Eugenetoriane adds another piece to the jigsaw which illustrates a history of women with agency in civic and religious affairs at Colossae. Claudia Eugenetoriane is known to have revived the mint at Colossae in the second century CE. It has often been assumed that the earthquake of 60–61 CE which severely damaged Laodikeia, as reported by Tacitus (56–117 CE) in his Annals, destroyed Colossae as well. The revival of the mint indicates that Colossae did not disappear but developed and flourished beyond that time. This paper introduces this new coin, its imagery and implications of prosperity of Colossae. In addition, it highlights one woman in a history of influential women in Colossae and the Lycus Valley.

Adiaphora: The Israel Folau Case, Heterodoxy and ‘Orthodox Sexual Desire’ in Conservative Australian Christianity
(2023) Jennings, Mark
In April 2019, athlete Isileli ‘Israel’ Folau was sacked for posting anti-LGBTQ+ social media messages. The ‘Israel Folau case’ was contentious in Australia and internationally. Although Folau claimed to be expressing genuinely held Christian beliefs, he has previously articulated heterodox anti-Trinitarian ideas. Throughout Christian history, orthodox beliefs concerning the Trinity have been central. Conversely, same-sex desire has been variously tolerated or censured, but has mostly been regarded as adiaphora: a matter of marginal importance. I argue that the support Folau received from two conservative Christian bodies—the Australian Christian Lobby and the Anglican Diocese of Sydney—suggests that in Australian conservative Christianity, ‘orthodox’ sexuality is now regarded as central, with orthodox belief now de facto consigned to adiaphora.
