  • Agroecology Demonstration Garden at Eden Hall Campus
    Inside: Agroecology Demonstration Garden at Eden Hall Campus WINTER2020 LIFE ON CAMPUS DURING CORONAVIRUS There’s no doubt about it—fall 2020 was a term like no other in recent memory. Masking, maintaining physical distancing, daily health screenings, over 1,000 COVID tests, and additional outdoor dining spaces were among the protocols Chatham enacted to help keep its community safe from the coronavirus (for a full list of coronavirus precautions and updates, visit our Fall Return to Campus site at chatham.edu/fall2020). Our students, faculty, and staff showed remarkable resilience in rising to the challenge, though— adapting activities, events, and traditions to be safe for themselves and their peers. Events were held virtually and in person, including a week of action for racial justice, a ton of election week support events, and even a Food in Uncertain Times virtual conference hosted by the Center for Regional Agriculture, Food, and Transformation (CRAFT). Alumni joined in the spirit, attending the Alumni Reunion Weekend@Home. For photos of the Chatham spirit in action during these uncertain times, turn to page 32.

  • Being a Syrian Refugee Child in America a Dissert
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles The Pursuit of Happiness and the Other: Being a Syrian Refugee Child in America A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Anthropology by Farzad Amoozegar-Fassaie 2020 © Copyright by Farzad Amoozegar-Fassaie 2020 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION The Pursuit of Happiness and the Other: Being a Syrian Refugee Child in America by Farzad Amoozegar-Fassaie Doctor of Philosophy in Anthropology University of California, Los Angeles, 2020 Professor Alessandro Duranti, Co-Chair Professor C. Jason Throop, Co-Chair This dissertation is based on the accounts of four Syrian refugee children who now live in the Bay Ridge area of Brooklyn. It focuses on the children’s narratives of their treacherous flight out of Syria into refugee camps in Jordan and Turkey, their accounts of their daily lives in the Bay Ridge area, and their views about the future. Each child has had similar experiences, coping with the tragic loss of family members and friends during the Syrian Civil War. Through their journeys the loss of the other destabilizes the self, forming a mode of being-with-other that allows the dead the possibility of “living-after.” It opens the children to being responsible for the ii wellbeing of the dead other, shaping the children’s narratives as a response to the non-responsive other. For the children, the dead other stimulates a way of being-in-the world that is constantly (re)orienting their moral experiences. The dead other becomes an open-ended engagement. This intersubjective relationship to the dead other is examined through Islamic ethics and Sūfī ideals the children have been socialized into and have learned to uphold.

  • Review Essay
    Horizons, , pp. –. © College Theology Society, doi:10.1017/hor.2016.108 REVIEW ESSAY The Study Quran: A New Translation and Commentary. Edited by Seyyed Hossein Nasr. New York: Harper One, .lx+, pages. $.. The Study Quran is an impressive volume intended for scholars and teach- ers in various fields, as well as for students and general readers, both Muslim and non-Muslim. It is a vital addition to the existing translations of the Quran* and to the not-so-vast body of commentaries on the Quran in the English language. The volume contains a comprehensive English translation and an extensive commentary on the entire Quran, as well as several essays on a range of topics, including Quranic ethics and law, branches of theology, death and dying, and art in the Quran. It includes useful appendices on hadith citations, a timeline of major events specified in the Quran, biographies of the commentators and the authors, a solid index, and a number of maps illustrat- ing the ancient world and Arabia in the early years of Islam. The volume is a great resource for students and scholars in the fields of theology and religious studies and can be a useful reference in other fields of the humanities. It is an essential resource for scholars, teachers, and students of Islam, both graduate and undergraduate. It provides students interested in reading the Quran in greater depth access to the rich commentary tradition in a single volume. Study of the Quran for those not familiar with Arabic or Persian (the major languages of the commentarial tradition) has presented quite a challenge.

  • Sufism Pre-Syllabus 141201
    ISLAMIC SPIRITUALITY (WS-639) Yahya M. Michot This course explores the nature and diversity of Sufism by looking at the origins and development of Islamic spiritual thought and practices in history. The course will remain anchored by focusing on important personalities in the mystical trad- itions of Islam through their literature and poetry, devotional path and/or music. Class will meet twice a week for 12 weeks: Tuesdays and Thursdays, 6:30-8:15 p.m., beginning Tuesday January 20, 2015. Each of these twelve classes will be divided in two sessions: A) Lecture; B) Discussion of the required readings. Course Objectives 1) Students should be able to find their way around in the major reference works on Sufism. 2) They are expected to gain an acquaintance with the ways classical Islamic spirituality developed, the historical and ideological contexts in which it evolved, its key figures and the main doctrines, schools or movements it crystallized into. 3) In reference to the classical period, they should also be able to have an informed opinion on modern Sufi developments and debates. 4) They should be able to benefit from the methodological approach adopted in these classes and apply them for their own studies and/or research projects. Course Requirements 1) It is strongly recommended that the student arrive at the first class already having a general knowledge about the religion of Islam, as well as about the history and geography of Muslim peoples. They should also be able to find their way around in the major reference tools for Islamic Studies (Encyclopaedia of Islam, Index Islamicus…).

    Notes Introduction 1. The visionary experience is apparent as early as The Grass is Singing in Mary Turner's moments of intense illumination, which has resonance in the process of conscious evolution in the later novels. 2.
