The articles in this volume of collected essays, written over the last two decades and all revised, updated, and supplemented with unpublished material, are grouped around two themes: Divine Secrets and Human Imaginations. The first essays deal with the production, initiation, use and function, the abduction, repatriation, and the replacement of divine images, their outer appearance, and the many facets of the divine presence theology in Ancient Mesopotamia. The essays on the second topic deal with human imaginations, human constructs, and constructed memories, which assign meaning to the past or to things or experiences that are beyond human control. Thematically, several aspects of the human condition are examined, such as the ideas associated in the Old Testament and the Ancient Near East with death, corporeality, enemies, disasters, utopias, and passionate love.

This handbook presents an overview of the main approaches from social and cultural anthropology to the Hebrew Bible. Since the late 19th century, biblical scholarship has addressed issues and themes related to biblical stories from a perspective which could now be considered socio-anthropological. It is however only since the 1960s that biblical scholars have started to produce readings and incorporate analytical models drawn directly from social anthropology to widen the interpretive scope of the social and historical data contained in the biblical sources. The handbook is arranged into two main thematic parts. Part 1 assesses the place of the Bible in social anthropology, examines the contribution of ethnoarchaeology to the recovery of the social world of Iron Age Palestine and offers insights from the anthropology of the Mediterranean for the interpretation of the biblical stories. Part 2 provides a series of case studies on anthropological themes arising in the Hebrew Bible. These include kinship and social organisation, death, cultural and collective memory, and ritualism. Contributors also examine how the biblical stories reveal dynamics of power and authority, gender, and honour and shame, and how socio-anthropological approaches can reveal these narratives and deepen our knowledge of the human societies and cultural context of the texts. Bringing together the expertise of scholars of the Hebrew Bible and Biblical Archaeology, this ethnographic introduction prompts new questions into our understanding of anthropology and the Bible.

This book reveals how violent pasts were constructed by ancient Mediterranean societies, the ideologies they served, and the socio-political processes and institutions they facilitated. Combining case studies from Anatolia, Egypt, Greece, Israel/Judah, and Rome, it moves beyond essentialist dichotomies such as “victors” and “vanquished” to offer a new paradigm for studying representations of past violence across diverse media, from funerary texts to literary works, chronicles, monumental reliefs, and other material artefacts such as ruins. It thus paves the way for a new comparative approach to the study of collective violence in the ancient world.

‘The personality who received the Christ Being into himself in his thirtieth year is a complex entelechy. Only on the basis of the Akashic Record can an accurate view be gained as to why the life of Jesus is so diversely presented in the various Gospels…’ – Rudolf Steiner Previously untranslated, this collection of twelve lectures represents a middle point in Rudolf Steiner’s unique exposition of the Christian gospels – his momentous courses on St John and St Luke had already been delivered, whilst his lectures on the Matthew and Mark gospels were yet to follow. Here, he examines the varying depictions of Christ in the gospels, explaining that they represent four different but complementary perspectives. Steiner’s unparalleled insights are based on his firsthand ability to research the spiritual Akashic Record – the universal compendium of all events, thoughts, emotions and intentions. The twelve lectures include: ‘The Gospels, Buddha and the two Jesus children’; ‘Four varying depictions of Christ in the four Gospels’; ‘The Mission of the ancient Hebrew people’; ‘Preparations for an understanding of the Christ Event’; ‘On the right attitude to Anthroposophy’; ‘The Gospel of Matthew and the Christ conundrum’; ‘Group souls and Individuality’; ‘God within and the God in outer manifestation’; ‘The Christmas tree as a symbol’; and ‘A Christmas mood’. Translated by Christiana Bryan, this volume features an introduction by Tom Ravetz as well as notes and an index.

Th. Melzl stellt psychologische Ansätze in der evangelischen Liturgiewissenschaft vor, die eine gewisse Wirkung auf die Liturgiewissenschaft, aber auch auf andere Bereiche der Theologie ausgeübt haben. J. Neijenhuis setzt sich mit dem Votum Gemeinsam am Tisch des Herrn des Ökumenischen Arbeitskreises auseinander, er legt dabei Wert auf die tatsächlich gefeierte Abendmahls- bzw. Eucharistieliturgie mit besonderem Schwerpunkt auf dem Gehörten und Gesehenen. J. Conrad beschreibt das nur einige Jahrzehnte dauernde gottesdienstliche Leben der Deutschkatholischen Gemeinde in Saarbrücken. Die Deutschkatholischen Gemeinden entstanden seit 1845, sie lehnten den Primat des Papstes ab, führten eine Presbyterialverfassung ein und näherten sich auch in anderen Fragen der evangelischen Kirche an. B. Schmidt widmet sich mit dem "Andachtsbuch Luise Henrietten's von Brandenburg" einer Neubearbeitung des seit 1945 verschollenen Gesangbuchs "Geistliche Lieder und Psalmen", das 1653 von dem Berliner Verleger Christoph Runge herausgegeben worden war. R. Schuster setzt sich mit der neunten Auflage eines der erfolgreichsten Gesangbücher des 17. Jahrhunderts aus demselben Verlag auseinander: der "Praxis Pietatis Melica". Er stellt die These auf, dass diese nur in einem Raubdruck erhaltene Auflage nie bei Runge selbst erschienen ist. In Projektskizzen werden wissenschaftliche hymnologische Forschungen in statu nascendi vorgestellt. Literaturberichte zur Liturgik und Hymnologie sowie Strophen- und Personenregister runden das Jahrbuch ab.

Ein reibungsloser Ablauf unseres Zusammenlebens erfordert eine Strukturierung von Zeit. Eine solche Ordnung ist der Zeit nicht inhärent, sondern sie muss von einer Gesellschaft geschaffen und festgelegt werden. In diesem Prozess haben Religionen besondere Prägekraft entfaltet. Heft 1/2021 "Zeitstrukturen" befasst sich mit der Frage, wie und mit welchen Zielen Religionsgemeinschaften Zeit ordnen.

The notions of other peoples, cultures, and natural conditions have always been determined by the epistemology of imagination and fantasy, providing much freedom and creativity, and yet have also created much fear, anxiety, and horror. In this regard, the pre-modern world demonstrates striking parallels with our own insofar as the projections of alterity might be different by degrees, but they are fundamentally the same by content. Dreams, illusions, projections, concepts, hopes, utopias/dystopias, desires, and emotional attachments are as specific and impactful as the physical environment. This volume thus sheds important light on the various lenses used by people in the Middle Ages and the early modern age as to how they came to terms with their perceptions, images, and notions. Previous scholarship focused heavily on the history of mentality and history of emotions, whereas here the history of pre-modern imagination, and fantasy assumes center position. Imaginary things are taken seriously because medieval and early modern writers and artists clearly reveal their great significance in their works and their daily lives. This approach facilitates a new deep-structure analysis of pre-modern culture.

John Dee's angel conversations have been an enigmatic facet of Elizabethan England's most famous natural philosopher's life and work. Professor Harkness contextualizes Dee's angel conversations within the natural philosophical, religious and social contexts of his time. She argues that they represent a continuing development of John Dee's earlier concerns and interests. These conversations include discussions of the natural world, the practice of natural philosophy, and the apocalypse.
