This composite, post-colonial and multi-dimensional volume contains sixteen original essays by distinguished Jewish and Christian Scripture scholars on a wide range of perspectives on the relation between Jesus and women as portrayed in the New Testament Gospels, as historically re-constructed in the context of Second Temple Judaisms and of Mediterranean society, as well as in present actualizations. The contributions reflect the different social locations of interpreters from all continents and testify to the richness of methods employed in biblical interpretation at the end of the 20th century, ranging from literary approaches (narrative criticism, reader response criticism, intertextuality), historical-critical methods, archaeology and social-scientific interpretation to cultural studies and film theory. By addressing new questions and searching for answers on untrodden paths the vital scholarship on Jesus and women will be re-viewed, enriched, and challenged.

The creative strategies in Design for Transformative Learning offer a playful and practical approach to learning from and adapting to a rapidly changing world. Seeing continuous learning as more than the periodic acquisition of new skills this book presents a design-led approach to revising the stories we tell ourselves, unlearning old habits and embracing new practices. This book maps learning opportunities across the contemporary landscape, narrating global case studies from K12, higher education, design consultancies and researchers. It offers narrative context, best practices and emergent strategies for how designers can partner in the important work of advancing a lifetime of learning. Committed to driving sustained transformation this is a playbook of practical moves for designing memory-making, perspective-shifting, hands-on learning encounters. The book braids stories from design practice with theories of change, transformative learning literature, cognitive and social psychology research, affect theory and Indigenous knowing. Positioning the COVID-19 pandemic as a moment to question what was previously normalised, the book proposes playful strategies for seeding transformational change. The relational practice at the core of Design for Transformative Learning argues that if learning is to be transformative the experience must be embodied, cognitive and social. This book is an essential read for design and social innovation researchers, facilitators of community engagement and co-design workshops, design and arts educators and professional learning designers. It is a useful primer for K12 teachers, organisational change practitioners and professional development facilitators curious to explore the intersection of design and learning. The companion website for the book is a practical resource that connects to many of the projects, activities, methods, designers and stories introduced in the book. The site includes links to downloadable colour diagrams, templates for digital learning encounters, and additional reflective narratives on transformative experiences. www.designingtransformativelearning.com

Are you ready to embark on a journey that challenges the laws of science while immersing you in the depths of the spirit? "Encounters with God Between Science and Faith" is a work that unites the magnificence of the divine mystery with the incredible beauty of scientific research. It is not just a theoretical reflection but a narrative nourished by real stories, lived experiences, and profound transformations involving science, faith, and spirituality. What will you find in the book? A Transformative Journey: The pages of this book will guide you through moving experiences that testify to encounters with the divine. You will discover how people, in times of suffering, rediscover hope in the Resurrection of Christ, a message that is not only historical but a living reality that calls us to new life. These stories invite reflection on the possibility of a divine encounter that is present today, in our daily lives. The Convergence of Science and Faith: Each chapter explores how the connections between the scientific understanding of the universe and Christian faith can be harmonized. You will uncover the hidden beauty behind every atom, every subatomic particle, and how these cosmic laws speak of an intelligent and mysterious Creator. Chemistry, for example, offers a perspective to reflect on a creative principle that gave life to the universe. Chemical laws, such as the conservation of mass and thermodynamics, emerge as order that arises from chaos, similar to divine principles that create harmony in the universe. Even the laws of the macrocosm, such as Newton's law of universal gravitation or Einstein’s theory of relativity, show an ordered universe, a tangible sign of a Creator. The dance of galaxies and planets, which follows rigorous physical laws, could be the reflection of a divine design. Stories of Everyday Miracles: You will find inspiring stories of people who, through dreams, visions, and small everyday miracles, encountered the divine in extraordinary ways. Each story is a window into a world we often ignore, yet one that is full of meaning. Science and faith intertwine, showing that the spiritual dimension can manifest even in a scientific world. Every miracle, big or small, can be seen as an interaction between physical, chemical, and macrocosmic laws and a spiritual reality that transcends them. The Power of Forgiveness and Healing: A central theme in the book is the transformative power of forgiveness, which through the Resurrection of Christ brings spiritual and physical healing. The stories of those who find peace through forgiveness are powerful and moving. Science confirms how forgiveness has positive effects on health, improving the quality of life. The laws of biochemistry show us that emotions influence chemical processes in our bodies, and forgiveness can bring tangible benefits to our health. An Invitation to Live Faith Today: "Encounters with God Between Science and Faith" is not just a read. It is an invitation to live faith with renewed energy, aware of the divine presence in our daily lives. Science offers us perfect order in the universe, but it is through faith that we find the deep meaning of this perfection. Every scientific discovery becomes an opportunity to reflect on the greatness of the Creator who gave rise to all of this. Why read this book? Each chapter offers a thought-provoking reflection that will make you look at the world in a new light. The experiences shared are not just personal testimonies but real paths of inner growth. If you wish to explore the mystery of the universe and the spiritual meaning that guides it, this book is for you. It is not just a collection of stories, it is a call to live an encounter with God that can change the entire world.

This is a book that supports teachers, teacher educators and educational researchers as they strive for ways to make their work more authentic, more meaningful, and therefore more spiritual. Dobson describes the practices of exemplary teachers, offers a theoretical framework for transformative teaching, and includes useful examples that the reader can readily include in her own teaching and/or research. Dobson offers two innovative methods of teacher reflectivity (Interacting Narratives and Archetypal Reflectivity) and an original methodology of teaching literature and the arts that draws on the insights of depth psychology. Interwoven throughout the book is Dobson’s own story, that of an ‘at-risk’student who was deeply affected by his high school experiences with drama and literature. The book will be of interest to teachers in all fields but particularly in literature and the arts. It will appeal to teacher educators, educational researchers, those interested in analytical psychology, those interested in narrative approaches to teacher education, and those interested in narrative approaches to educational research. It will be useful in courses that focus on the construction of teachers’ professional knowledge and reflective practices as well as methodology classes in literature, drama, and all the arts. The book will also be of interest in qualitative, arts-based research methodology classes.

A Century of Encounters analyzes Arab, American, and European literary depictions of self and other as they interact with each other in Arab North Africa throughout the twentieth century and introduces the trope of the encounter as a lens through which to read contemporary world literature comparatively. A focus on the transnational encounter allows for the in-depth study of constructions of gender, race, and national identities both for the self and the other in order to answer the seemingly simple questions: What makes up different encounters in the twentieth century, and how can we facilitate a productive and positive encounter between these groups? This book illustrates connections between literary texts that have hitherto been overlooked and establishes an intertextual genealogy of transcultural encounters throughout the twentieth century that coalesce around the themes of desire, family, and travel. In its literary analysis, A Century of Encounters aims to facilitate a better understanding of other cultures in general and contribute to constructive cross-cultural interactions between the United States, Europe, and Arab North Africa in particular.

What would it look like to approach data with the care and attentiveness that we bring to a poem? Andrew Davison proposes a new philosophy of data modeled on the affective and ethical qualities of the encounter between a reader and a literary text and demonstrates its significance for understanding urgent social and political issues. In a cross-disciplinary engagement with philosophical, literary, and political-theoretical accounts of poetic experience, Close Encounters challenges the philosophical underpinnings of dominant approaches to data analysis. Instead, Davison argues, social scientists should treat their data with the same close attention and ethical responsibility that are accorded to literary texts. In this view, quantitative and qualitative data are not only collected, coded, or constructed—they are entrusted to the care of their recipient. Such attunement yields original insight into silenced, erased, and neglected subaltern dimensions of the data. Davison demonstrates how this methodology provides fresh perspective on pressing topics such as immigration, border politics, torture, war, Trumpism, violent political speech, medical care, criminal justice, algorithmic governance, and the COVID-19 pandemic. Bringing together a strikingly original theorization of data with a rich array of examples, Close Encounters shows why the skills and methods of literary inquiry are essential to ethically sensitive data analysis.
