The Christian Songwriter As Theologian giving voice to the converted heart and mind by James Maher A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Theology MCD University of Divinity March 2013 Christian songs are commonly understood to have a theology, but not necessarily to serve a theological function. This thesis explores the theological function of Christian song within the framework of Bernard Lonergan’s theological method. An understanding of the method of theology developed by Lonergan, in particular the functional specialty foundations, combined with an understanding of how song functions as a symbolic art-form in relation to religious experience, makes it possible to judge more accurately the place of song in theology. This thesis argues that Christian song, as a theological action, makes its most important contribution within the functional specialty of foundations. The theological task of foundations is the objectification of conversion, the radical religious, moral and intellectual transformation which is the foundation of human authenticity. Song, as a symbolic art-form, is well suited to the objectification of religious conversion: an experience of grace, a falling in love in an unrestricted way, a being drawn into the mystery of love and awe. It seems that music and poetry, and other symbolic art-forms, are best able to express the ‘otherwise inexpressible’, and to do so in a way that is accessible to people of all classes and cultures. In foundations, the centrality of religious experience within theology is reasserted. This religious experience, expressed in song, re-presented in its transforming immediacy, provides the horizon within which religious doctrines might be affirmed and clarified, their meanings understood, and communication of these meanings undertaken. More than being simply a ‘carrier’ of doctrines, a good Christian song evokes the religious experience which alone makes it possible to recognise, and to seek the meaning of, such doctrines. This study yields a more dynamic and a more fundamental understanding of the theological function of religious songs and songwriting than is evident in current literature. It makes clear the primary importance of the authentic conversion of the songwriter, and proposes the secondary importance of the study of the tradition (scripture and theology). It should help Christian songwriters better understand what they are doing in their art, what is foundational to it as a religious and a theological activity, and perhaps how they might compose better songs. ‘God willing, and the creek don’t rise!’ Researching and writing a thesis is an intensely personal and demanding process, which has a profound effect on the reality that is ‘me’. The experience of this research, and my other post-graduate studies, has been the lens through which I have lived and reflected upon my life in the last few years. I feel truly blessed to have had this lens to help me recognise and understand the transformative journey I have been travelling, and to have had such love and support from my companions on the way. I am deeply grateful ... For the opportunity offered to me by my religious congregation, the Missionaries of the Sacred Heart, to undertake further theological studies. For the insight, the unstinting encouragement, the patience and the friendship of my supervisor, Kathleen Williams. For the kind advice of Mike Shute and Phil McShane in the early stages of my research, which helped me find the right direction for this thesis, and for a timely question from Norman Young. For the warmth and welcome I have received within the Yarra Theological Union community, and for the generous support of the academic and administrative staff of the MCD University of Divinity. For my spiritual director, who helped me name my own conversion, and whose faith, compassion and wisdom have been gifts beyond price. For the love and support of the St Thomas the Apostle Parish community in Blackburn, and especially the parish staff who looked out for me, and were always ready with kind words of encouragement. For the love and support of my MSC brothers here in Melbourne, who helped keep me sane and who patiently endured my thesis journey with me. For the love and encouragement of my family and friends, who have walked with me through some tough times in the last few years. I am grateful to have managed, with the grace of our loving God, to have completed this thesis, and indeed my MTheol. The creek did rise a few times, but God was always there, waiting and willing.

(Tim Winton) 1 The vast majority of cosmogonic stories originating from the most diverse cultures, call upon acoustic images to explain the origin of things, of animals, of man. Everything happens as if the most intimate relationship which exists between a human being and his creator-parent was first perceived by man as being a resonant one: noise, sound, voice, music.2 Thus writes the French Jesuit composer and music scholar, Joseph Gelineau. A Hindu creation story offers a powerful example: ‘... all was dark and quiet in the womb of the universe until the first movement, which created the sound, “OM.”’3 Christians might be able to hear the opening of John’s gospel, with its reference to the Hebrew creation story, in a fresh way: ‘In the beginning was the Sound, and the Sound was with God, and the Sound was God ...’ (cf. Jn 1:1) 4 All things came into being through this primordial sound (Jn 1:3), just as we are told in the beginning of Genesis: God spoke (perhaps it sounded like a big bang!) and creation dawned. (Gen 1:1 – 2:4a) Gelineau proposes that ‘the fundamental symbolic power of sound’ arises from the fact that our first external perceptions in utero are aural, whereby a ‘message from another person enters me by the sense of hearing and invades me completely without my awareness of its arrival and its source.’5 Irish singer and theologian, Nóirín Ní Riain, makes

  • “Until That Song Is Born”: an Ethnographic Investigation of Teaching and Learning Among Collaborative Songwriters in Nashville
    “UNTIL THAT SONG IS BORN”: AN ETHNOGRAPHIC INVESTIGATION OF TEACHING AND LEARNING AMONG COLLABORATIVE SONGWRITERS IN NASHVILLE By Stuart Chapman Hill A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Music Education—Doctor of Philosophy 2016 ABSTRACT “UNTIL THAT SONG IS BORN”: AN ETHNOGRAPHIC INVESTIGATION OF TEACHING AND LEARNING AMONG COLLABORATIVE SONGWRITERS IN NASHVILLE By Stuart Chapman Hill With the intent of informing the practice of music educators who teach songwriting in K– 12 and college/university classrooms, the purpose of this research is to examine how professional songwriters in Nashville, Tennessee—one of songwriting’s professional “hubs”—teach and learn from one another in the process of engaging in collaborative songwriting. This study viewed songwriting as a form of “situated learning” (Lave & Wenger, 1991) and “situated practice” (Folkestad, 2012) whose investigation requires consideration of the professional culture that surrounds creative activity in a specific context (i.e., Nashville). The following research questions guided this study: (1) How do collaborative songwriters describe the process of being inducted to, and learning within, the practice of professional songwriting in Nashville, (2) What teaching and learning behaviors can be identified in the collaborative songwriting processes of Nashville songwriters, and (3) Who are the important actors in the process of learning to be a collaborative songwriter in Nashville, and what roles do they play (e.g., gatekeeper, mentor, role model)? This study combined elements of case study and ethnography. Data sources included observation of co-writing sessions, interviews with songwriters, and participation in and observation of open mic and writers’ nights.

  • Call Me Queer
    Call Me Queer: Queer theory and the Soundtrack of Call Me by Your Name ​ Zora van Harten 4246551 dr. Floris Schuiling bachelor thesis MU3V14004 Musicology University of Utrecht Word count: 5559 Introduction In a culture that classifies the world through binary categories, entities that fall in between those 1 categories are often subjected to fear and anxiety. It is therefore no surprise that two subjects as fluid, undefinable and abstract as music and queer identities both have been occupying 2 controversial positions within Western history. Remarkably, both these subjects are central to the critically acclaimed film Call Me by Your Name. The film, directed by Italian director Luca ​ ​ Guadagnino, is part of his so-called “desire” film trilogy, together with earlier films Il Sono ​ L’Amore (2009) and A Bigger Splash (2015). It tells the story of a summer romance between a ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ seventeen year old boy called Elio, and Oliver, a twenty-eight year old scholar who is invited to work on his doctoral thesis while staying in Elio’s parents’ summer house in Italy. Its narrative features a nuanced and fluid, and therefore queer conception of desire and sexuality; the characters stay out of defined categories through the ambiguous meaning of the film’s dialogue and their sexual identities. In this film, music takes on a remarkable position. Elio uses music to express the multiple outlets regarding his desire for Oliver. Moreover, the songs, and piano works of the soundtrack are often combined with the relatively loud presence of sounds such as the movement of water, crickets or the wind rushing through the trees which could point towards a more affective experience of sound for the audience.

  • Alcoholic Insanity
    ALCOHOLIC INSANITY. 1 BY LEWIS D. MASON, M.D., Consulting Physician to the Inebriate Asylum, Fort Hamilton, L. I. The relation which alcohol bears to insanity is both causative and contributive. This fact was emphasized in a discussion on “ The Influence of Alcohol in the Causa- tion of Insanity,” held by the Psychological Section of the British Medical Association at its annual meeting in 1880. Dr. J. Crichton Browne, President of the Section, in summing up the results of the discussion, and especially “ certain statistics presented, said : There were a certain proportion of cases in which intemperance was an expres- sion of a diseased state already established, and had noth- ing to do with causation; but, on the other hand, there were certainly included in that large mass of cases at the end (of the statistics) in which the causes of the insanity were unknown, a certain proportion in which secret or concealed or unrecognized drinking was really the undis- covered cause.” He offered a physiological explanation of the action of alcohol on the nervous system, maintaining that it first excited and then paralyzed every nerve centre in succes- sion, beginning on the highest and ending on the lowest, and that its action was not simple, but doubly and trebly compound. The highest inhibitory and controlling cen- tres upon which its primary action was exercised could not be repeatedly paralyzed without grave danger to 1 Read before the “ American Association for the Cure of Inebriates,” at its Annual Meeting held April 26th, 1883. 2 LEWIS D.
