1 Alec Vidler on Christian Faith and Secular Despair Born in Rye
Alec Vidler On Christian Faith and Secular Despair Born in Rye, Sussex, son of a shipping businessman, Alec Vidler ( 1899‐1991)was educated at Sutton Valence School, Kent, read theology at Selwyn College, Cambridge (B.A. 1921),then trained for the Anglican ministry at Wells Theological College. He disliked Wells and transferred to the Oratory of the Good Shepherd, Cambridge, an Anglo‐Catholic community of celibates, and was ordained priest in 1923. He retained a life‐time affection for the celibate monkish life, never marrying but having a wide range of friends, including Malcolm Muggeridge, who was at Selwyn with him. Muggeridge’s father was a prominent Labourite and Vidler imbibed leftist sympathies in that circle. His first curacy was in Newcastle, working in the slums. He soon came to love his work with working class parishioners and was reluctantly transferred to St Aidan’s Birmingham, where he became involved in a celebrated stoush with the bishop E. W. Barnes, himself a controversialist of note. Vidler’s Anglo‐ Catholic approach to ritual clashed with Barnes’s evangelicalism. Vidler began a prolific career of publication in the 1920s and 30s. In 1931 he joined friends like Wilfred Ward at the Oratory House in Cambridge, steeping himself in religious history and theology, including that of Reinhold Niebuhr and “liberal Catholicism”. In 1939 Vidler became warden of St Deiniol’s Library, Hawarden (founded by a legacy from Gladstone) and also editor of the leading Anglican journal Theology, which he ran until 1964, exerting considerable progressive influence across those years. He also facilitated a number of religious think‐tanks in these, and later, years. -
Charles Dickens, 'Hard Times' and Hyperbole Transcript
Charles Dickens, 'Hard Times' and Hyperbole Transcript Date: Tuesday, 15 November 2016 - 6:00PM Location: Museum of London 15 November 2016 Charles Dickens: Hard Times and Hyperbole Professor Belinda Jack As I said in my last lecture, ‘Rhetoric’ has a bad name. Phrases like ‘empty rhetoric’, ‘it’s just rhetoric’ and the like suggest that the main purpose of rhetoric is to deceive. This, of course, can be true. But rhetoric is also an ancient discipline that tries to make sense of how we persuade. Now we could argue that all human communication sets out to persuade. Even a simple rhetorical question as clichéd and mundane as ‘isn’t it a lovely day?’ could be said to have a persuasive element. So this year I want to explore the nuts and bolts of rhetoric in relation to a number of famous works of literature. What I hope to show is that knowing the terms of rhetoric helps us to see how literature works, how it does its magic, while at the same time arguing that great works of literature take us beyond rhetoric. They push the boundaries and render the schema of rhetoric too rigid and too approximate. In my first lecture in the new series we considered Jane Austen’s novel entitled Persuasion (1817/1818) – what rhetoric is all about – in relation to irony and narrative technique, how the story is told. I concluded that these two features of Austen’s last completed novel functioned to introduce all manner of ambiguities leaving the reader in a position of uncertainty and left to make certain choices about how to understand the novel. -

«The Holy Letters Had Never Joined into Any Name as Mine» Notes on the Name of the Author in Agnon’s Work1 Yaniv Hagbi University of Amsterdam 1. Nomen est Omen As the famous Latin proverb testifies, the correlation between characters’ names and their nature, occupation, destiny or history is a literary trope very common in world-literature. It is known at least since the Bible. Abraham received his name because God is going to make him «the father of multitudes» or in Hebrew “av hamon goyim” (Gen. 17:5). Pharos’ daughter’s (surprisingly) good command of the language of the slaves, enabled her to name her Hebrew foundling, Moshe, saying, “I drew him out of the water (meshitihu)”» (Ex. 2:10).2 As one may presume this literary tool is only part of larger literary device. Proper names, i.e. not only persons’ names but all names of specific objects such as places, plants, animals etc., can bear literary aesthetic value. That latter, broader phenomenon is also known as onomastics (literary onomastics). The narrower manifestation of that phenomenon, with which we started, i.e. the relationship between a name and its human bearers, might be dubbed as anthropo-onomastics or anthroponym.3 It is of no surprise that the use of that trope is very common in the work of Shmuel Yosef Agnon (Tchatchkes) (1888-1970), an author well-versed in both Jewish literature and thought, as well as in world-literature.4 In the following article we shall see several unique uses Agnon makes in that trope while trying to account for possible reasons lying at the core of his poetical worldview. -

Writing the 9/11 Decade
1 Writing the 9/11 Decade Charlie Lee-Potter A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of PhD ROYAL HOLLOWAY UNIVERSITY OF LONDON 2013 2 Declaration of Authorship I Charlie Lee-Potter hereby declare that this thesis and the work presented in it is entirely my own. Where I have consulted the work of others, this is always clearly stated. Signed: ______________________ Date: ________________________ 3 Charlie Lee-Potter, Writing the 9/11 Decade Novelists have struggled to find forms of expression that would allow them to register the post-9/11 landscape. This thesis examines their tentative and sometimes faltering attempts to establish a critical distance from and create a convincing narrative and metaphorical lexicon for the historical, political and psychological realities of the terrorist attacks. I suggest that they have, at times, been distracted by the populist rhetoric of journalistic expression, by a retreat to American exceptionalism and by the demand for an immediate response. The Bush administration’s statement that the state and politicians ‘create our own reality’ served to reinforce the difficulties that novelists faced in creating their own. Against the background of public commentary post-9/11, and the politics of the subsequent ‘War on Terror’, the thesis considers the work of Richard Ford, Paul Auster, Kamila Shamsie, Nadeem Aslam, Don DeLillo, Mohsin Hamid and Amy Waldman. Using my own extended interviews with Ford, Waldman and Shamsie, the artist Eric Fischl, the journalist Kevin Marsh, and with the former Archbishop of Canterbury Dr. Rowan Williams (who is also a 9/11 survivor), I consider the aims and praxis of novelists working within a variety of traditions, from Ford’s realism and Auster’s metafiction to the post- colonial perspectives of Hamid and Aslam, and, finally, the end-of-decade reflections of Waldman. -
Common Naming Patterns Being a Brief Guide to Bynames Jn the Major European Languages and Cultures Commonly Encountered in the SCA
Common Naming Patterns Being A Brief Guide to Bynames Jn the Major European Languages And Cultures Commonly Encountered in the SCA Walraven van Nijmegen Introduction to Personal Names Parts of names In the majority of European cultures, personal names contain two basic kinds of name element: given names and surnames. The given name is so called because the family bestowed it upon the child at birth or christening. Given names may be traditional names in the culture, saints, heroes, honored relatives, and so forth. The pool of given names differs from culture to culture. For example, Giovanni is the characteristically Italian form of John ; the name Kasimir is almost uniquely Polish; and use of the name Teresa did not spread outside of Spain until very late in the SCA period. Because given names vary so much by place and period, describing them adequately is beyond the scope of this article. However, many collections of given names are available online at, among other places, the Medieval Names Archive (“MNA”). Surnames are the second major category of name element. Today’s surnames are inherited family names, but for most of the SCA period, surnames were not inherited by chose to describe an individual and distinguish him or her from other individuals with the same given name. Such surnames are called bynames. Byname Origins and Meanings To understand how bynames originated, imagine that you lived in Amsterdam around 1300. You are listening to a friend sharing local gossip about a man named Jan . Now, one out of every ten people living in Amsterdam is named Jan, so how will you know which one your friend means? Is it big Jan who lives at the edge of town? Jan the butcher? Jan, the son of Willem the candlemaker? You need additional information about who Jan is to identify him, and that is what a byname does. -

The best outweighs the worst, so let me start with what I found wonderful about the gathering. First of all, our Episcopal Delegate, Toronto Archbishop Thomas Collins threw such a lavish welcome for us is a sign the Holy Father‘s offer in the Apostolic Constitution Anglicanorum coetibus is real and that progress towards reunion with the Holy See is taking place.
