  • Sons and Daughters of Abraham, Hagar, and Sarah: Historical and Current Encounters Between Jews, Christians, and Muslims
    SONS AND DAUGHTERS OF ABRAHAM, HAGAR, AND SARAH: HISTORICAL AND CURRENT ENCOUNTERS BETWEEN JEWS, CHRISTIANS, AND MUSLIMS Dr. Nancy Klancher, Bridgewater College [email protected] Used with Permission1 In 2014, Dr. Nancy Klancher participated in a Teaching Interfaith Understanding faculty development seminar, run in partnership between the Council of Independent Colleges and Interfaith Youth Core, and generously funded by the Henry Luce Foundation. For information on future seminars, and to access more resources created by seminar alumni, visit www.ifyc.org/content/ifyc-cic-resources. Our listening creates a sanctuary for the homeless parts within another person. -- Rachel Naomi Remen I am a child whose teacher is love; surely my master won’t let me grow to be a fool. -- Rumi Course Rationale and Goals This course will be taught in the style of a seminar: the overarching model is of a small group of students learning critical thinking skills through discussion, debate, and peer review. We will focus on skills needed to engage in productive civil discourse within interfaith contexts. We will figure out together how to make our classroom a safe space to explore and learn how to relate well to Others in the world at large. 1 In consultation with the author, this syllabus has been edited for length, removing details particular to the author’s context such as office hours and location, absence policies, honor codes, and other instructor-specific (or institution-specific) details. 1 To that end, the course emphasizes two areas of personal development: (1) intellectual growth stimulated through increased interreligious literacy—both theoretical and historical, and (2) social and political agency developed through holistic relationships in the classroom and community engagement projects.

  • Guidelines for Initiating Local Interfaith Relations 5-2015
    Guidelines for initiating and sustaining local interfaith relations developed by the Rev. Dr. Carol Flett Episcopal diocesan Ecumenical and Inter-religious Officer October 2012 Why and what kind of interfaith experience are you considering? Local interfaith gatherings are de- signed to build community and mutual understanding of our faith traditions. The gatherings can be reg- ular over an extended period of time, or begin with an Open House to explore what the faith communi- ties could do together to improve relations in their local community. These gatherings can be either an informational program about interfaith dialogue or an experience of interfaith dialogue. 1. Planning: The most effective interfaith experiences are when congregational leaders of the various faith traditions are involved in the planning. Begin with informal meetings with the local religious leaders to discuss your intention and develop mutually agreed expectations. 2. Number of Participants expected: Depending on the total number of participants expected, design your program to have either one large group of 10-15, or small groups of 8-10 people with small group facilitators from all the faith traditions represented. There is a general “interfaith rule” that you never place only one representative of a faith tradition in a discussion group and expect him or her to be the only source of information or experience of their faith tradition. There are diverse experiences and traditions within each faith tradition. If you do not have enough representatives from each faith groups to have balanced numbers of partici- pants of each faith in each small group, you can shift the sessions towards information rather than dia- logue.

One summer there was a reading contest at the library, and an 8x10 photograph from around We Come Together 1970 documents that I must have won the compe- tition. I am dressed up while two women present To Dedicate and Celebrate me with a gift certificate to a local book store. The bulletin board in the background proclaims, “12 Books I Would Like to Own.” I have often Our Temple and our Community wondered what 12 books were on my list that summer, and in the years since, if I only owned 12 books at any given time, what they might be. Two years ago as we prepared for the expan- sion and renovation of Temple and the move tem to smaller temporary office space, I packed my nday, Sep ber 11 • 11 rabbinic library, selecting only those books that Su AM were most beloved and useful to keep with me while the remainder would go into storage. With The Place to Be only a small number of my books available on my shelves, I worked to shift my focus from the number of books I own (way, way more than 12) onto what it means to own books. It is an extraordinary privilege to own books. Cover Story and Map, pp.

  • Crossing the Strait from Morocco to the United States: the Transnational Gendering of the Atlantic World Before 1830
    CROSSING THE STRAIT FROM MOROCCO TO THE UNITED STATES: THE TRANSNATIONAL GENDERING OF THE ATLANTIC WORLD BEFORE 1830 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Marsha R. Robinson, MA ®®®®® The Ohio State University 2006 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Claire Robertson, Advisor Professor Ahmad Sikainga _________________________ Professor Stephen Hall Advisor History Graduate Program Copyright by Marsha Renee Robinson 2006 ABSTRACT This world women’s history is a comparative legal study tracing two thousand years of cultural contact through 1830 between the Saharan-based, gynecentric, Berian culture foundational to the Maliki Islam of the Berbers, Southern Arabs and Iberians, and the Mesopotamian and eastern Mediterranean patriarchy foundational to West Asiatic Islam and Western Christianity. The work explores the female-friendly Berian values common to the Saharan salt marsh diaspora and Almoravid Andalusia and North Africa, correcting patriarchal Sassanid influences upon Abbasid and Almohad omissions of female politicians from their imperial histories of the Maghrib. The European patriarchal bias began during Isabel I’s Reconquista Spain when the Spanish Inquisition attempted a purge of Berian matriliny. It continued with British harem envy, hyper-virility and political jealousy as Anglo-Americans engaged Barbary states. Western Christian philosophers, Freemasons, politicians and ministers used misperceptions of the harem to limit Western women’s economic and legal rights. In the U.S., this resulted in the simultaneous rise of domesticity, left-handed marriages, and de facto American polygyny. The Berber cultural influence on the U.S. occurred in the 1833 U.S.
