Klemm 1 ABSTRACT The practice of contemplative silence, in its manifestation as a mode of capable being, is a self-consciously spiritual and ethical activity that aims at a transformation of reflexive consciousness. I assert that contemplative silence manifests a mode of capable being in which we have an awareness of the awareness of the awareness of being with being whereby we can constitute and create a shared world of meaning(s) through poetically presencing our being as being with others. The doubling and tripling of the term "awareness" refers to five contextual levels of awareness, which are analyzed, including immediate self-awareness, immediate objective awareness, reflective awareness, reflexive awareness, and contemplative awareness.

Critical attention is focused on the chameleonic status of madness in its various manifestations, of which melancholy, particularly in its religious guise, is particularly important.

  • Jerry Cantrell Jerry Cantrell
    Jerry Cantrell Jerry Cantrell - vocals / guitar Robert Trujillo - bass Mike Bordin - drums From the lyrically and sonically mournful “Psychotic Break” to when the mental and musical exorcism of Jerry Cantrell's nearly 73-minute aural Degradation Trip concludes with the lovely, somnolent, bluesy strains of “Gone,” the singer/guitarist's Roadrunner debut is a sundry and sometimes scary journey to the center of a psyche. It may not always be a pretty trip, but it's a close-to-the-bone excursion that haunts both its creator and its listeners. As the multi-faceted artist relates, “In '98, I locked myself in my house, went out of my mind and wrote 25 songs,” says the then-fully-bearded Cantrell. “I rarely bathed during that period of writing; I sent out for food, I didn't really venture out of my house in three or four months. It was a hell of an experience. The album is an overview of birth to now. That's all,” he grins, though the visceral and haunting songs, by turns soaring and raw, do reflect that often-naked and sometimes-grim truth. “Boggy Depot [his 1998 solo bow] is like Kindergarten compared to this,” he furthers. “The massive sonic growth from Boggy Depot to Degradation Trip is comparable to the difference between our work in the Alice In Chains albums Facelift to Dirt, which was also a tremendous leap.” And all of Cantrell's 25 prolifically penned songs will see the light of day by 2003. Degradation Trip, which will be released June 18, is comprised of 14 songs from the personal, transcendent writing marathon that inspired such self-searching cuts as “Bargain Basement Howard Hughes,” “Hellbound,” and “Profalse Idol.” The second batch of songs—“as sad and brutal as Degradation Trip” —Cantrell promises, are due out on Roadrunner 2003.

  • Hobbes and Spinoza
    CHAPTER ONE: The One and Only Law I. Introduction In terms of his contribution to legal theory, Benjamin leaves us in a strange position. On the one hand, in his “Critique of Violence,” Benjamin sets out a very comprehensive overview of the law, ranging from natural to positive law. Here, he describes the parameters of law as we understand it, its basis for authority. On the other hand, via his notion of divine violence, also promoted in that essay, he offers a vision of a law destroying deity which upends and subverts all human contrivances. If law is both the foundation of political authority and also, in its divine manifestation, the undoing of the same, what does this say about our actual practices? What kind of law are we permitted in the face of divine interference? Does law end up being completely meaningless in the face of a messianic force that seems purely destructive?1 In this paper, I will argue that for Benjamin divine interference does not completely undermine law as a human practice; instead it leaves us with only one law, the Second Commandment against idolatry.2 Insofar as the act of divine violence is itself an act explicitly directed against idolatry, it offers a celestial model for law that serves us on earth as well. At the outset, I should say that this argument is an interpretation of Benjamin. He does not come out and say that we must obey the Second Commandment and only this commandment—at least not directly, but I will argue that such a conclusion comes out of an engagement with his writing, especially in terms of his most extensive commentary on law, his well-known essay “Critique of Violence.” 1 To obey one single law may seem to diminish law to a mere pith, a singularity that cannot address the complexity of human life and experience.

  • The Judgment of God and the Rise of 'Inclusivism'
    The Judgment of God and the Rise of ‘Inclusivism’ in Contemporary American Evangelicalism Victor Kuligin Dissertation presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Theology (DTh) in Systematic Theology at the University of Stellenbosch University of Stellenbosch Republic of South Africa Promoter: Prof DJ Smit March 2008 I, the undersigned, hereby declare that the work contained in this dissertation is my own original work and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it at any University for a degree. V Kuligin: __________________________ Date: __________________________ Copyright © 2008 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved ABSTRACT This study offers an overview and critique of the growing movement in American evangelicalism of what is popularly known as “inclusivism.” The mounting uneasiness expressed in many evangelical circles in North America concerning the fate of the unevangelised, and how that may square with the traditional evangelical view of their lostness, has produced a vigorous Soteriology which means to address what is viewed as inadequacies in the traditional model of salvation found in the American evangelical community. After an Introduction which defines the terms of the discussion, a systematic presentation of the main views of inclusivism is presented, mainly through the eyes of two of its foremost proponents, Clark Pinnock and John Sanders (although many others are also referenced). Major topics of coverage include the character and nature of God as supremely expressed in the teaching of Jesus, the work of the Holy Spirit through non-Christian religions, and how a balance between the love of God and human freedom can be maintained.
