Preface What is the Copper Scroll? Do the Dead Sea Scrolls contain lost books of the Bible? Did John the Baptist study with the people of Qumran? What is the Temple Scroll? What about DNA research and the scrolls? We have responded to scores of such questions on many occasions—while teaching graduate seminars and Hebrew courses at Brigham Young University, presenting papers at professional symposia, and speaking to various lay audiences. These settings are always positive experiences for us, particularly because they reveal that the general membership of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has a deep interest in the scrolls and other writings from the ancient world. The nonbiblical Dead Sea Scrolls are of great import because they shed much light on the cultural, religious, and political position of some of the Jews who lived shortly before and during the time of Jesus Christ. -

On the Streets of Paris: the Experience of Displaced Migrants and Refugees
social sciences $€ £ ¥ Article On the Streets of Paris: The Experience of Displaced Migrants and Refugees Madeleine Byrne Independent Researcher, Paris, France; [email protected] Abstract: In the wake of the demolition of the “The Jungle” at Calais, northern France, in October 2016, more than three thousand asylum seekers, refugees and other informal immigrants at any given time live in informal tent cities throughout the city’s northern areas. These makeshift camps appear to manifest a central issue in the French asylum system, that is applicants after making a claim for protection, and awaiting a hearing or decision, receive next to no formal support (financial, or residential) and are largely left to fend for themselves.Not all of the camp residents are asylum seekers wanting to stay in France. Some are migrants (or asylum seekers) en route to the United Kingdom; others are refugees who received French protection, with no housing. Between 2015–2017 there were multiple outbreaks of scabies in these tent cities leading to sanitation workers refusing to work in their vicinity. The current Covid-19 crisis has, moreover, further exacerbated concerns about the health of the unhoused asylum seekers and migrants in Paris - unaccompanied minors, in particular. This article will consider the repeated displacement, or dispersal, of this population in terms of the changing “politics of immigration”and policing in France under President Emmanuel Macron. In order to present the broader social context, it will also describe current events in Paris, Citation: Byrne, Madeleine. 2021. including Macron government’s legislation relating to asylum/immigration, policing and more, amid On the Streets of Paris: The the Covid-19 health crisis. -

Nineteenth-Century Paris and the Revival of Vincentian Charity BY EDWARD R. UDOVIC, C.M. In Victor Hugo's classic nineteenth-cen- tury novel, Les Misérables, the saintly bishop of the poor and remote diocese of Digne, Monseigneur Charles François-Bienvenu Myriel, undertakes the long journey to Paris to attend an episcopal synod together with 104 of his fellow bishops who were sum- moned there from throughout France and the French controlled regions of Italy. This unprecedented synod, which had been con- voked by the Emperor Napoleon, met at the cathedral of Notre Dame in June and July of 1811 under the presidency of the emperor's Reverend uncle, Cardinal Fesch, who was also the Edward R. Udovic, C.M. archbishop of Lyons.' According to Hugo's fictional account; during the course of this synod the aged bishop of Digne attended only one session and three or four private conferences. -

Soviet influence regulated all aspects of life in the country. As a result, many well-known political figures, writers, and artists were forced to flee the country in order to evade imprisonment or death. One of the more notable examples is the writer Milan Kundera, who fled to France in 1975. Once in France, the notion of exile became a prominent theme in his writing as he sought to expose the political situation of his country to the western world—one of the main reasons why he chose to publish his work in French rather than in Czech. -

Why the King James Version?: from the Common to the Official Bible of Mormonism
ARTICLES AND ESSAYS Why the King James Version?: From the Common to the Official Bible of Mormonism Philip L. Barlow THE EXCELLENCE OF THE King James Version of the Bible does not need fresh documentation. No competent modern reader would question its literary excel- lence or its historical stature. Yet compared to several newer translations, the KJV suffocates scriptural understanding. This essay offers a historical per- spective on how the LDS Church became so attached to a seventeenth-century translation of the ancient biblical texts. To gain this perspective, we must distinguish between the sincere justifica- tions offered by leaders and teachers in recent decades and the several histori- cal factors that, between 1867 and 1979, transformed the KJV from the common into the official Mormon Bible. In addition to a natural love of the beauty and familiarity of KJV language, these factors include the 1867 pub- lication of Joseph Smith's biblical revision, the nineteenth-century Protestant- Catholic conflict over governmental authorization of a single version for use in American public schools, the menace of higher criticism, the advent of new translations perceived as doctrinally dangerous, a modern popular misunder- standing of the nature of Joseph Smith's recorded revelations, and the 1979 publication of the LDS edition of the Bible. While examining these influences, I give special notice to J. Reuben Clark, who by 1956 had appropriated most previous arguments and in the process made virtually all subsequent Mormon spokespersons dependent on his logic. So influential was his work that it too must be considered a crucial factor in the evolving LDS apologetic for the King James Version. -

Virtus in the Roman World: Generality, Specificity, and Fluidity Abstract Virtus in the Roman world was often cited, by the Romans themselves, to be their defining attribute that allowed them to conquer the Mediterranean. Virtus’ meaning changed throughout the Roman Republic as different successful methodologies came into usage, and eventually the word virtus focused solely on those who were successful, rather than their own moral or practical character.

THE STORY of an IDEA MOVING with a PLAYMAKING EDUCATION by Donard Anthony James Mackenzie B.F.A. (Theatre), University of Victor
THE STORY OF AN IDEA MOVING WITH A PLAYMAKING EDUCATION by Donard Anthony James MacKenzie B.F.A. (Theatre), University of Victoria, 1987 M.F.A. (Creative Writing and Theatre), The University of British Columbia, 2007 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE AND POSTDOCTORAL STUDIES (Language and Literacy Education) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) February, 2015 © Donard Anthony James MacKenzie, 2015 ii ABSTRACT This dissertation combines the disciplines of theatre, film, and education through a living inquiry which tells the life story of a playwriting idea. I document my playwriting process for a new full-length play written from research-based sources, which include in-person work at archives in London, UK and Los Angeles, CA. I examine the source of the idea and its continued influences. I move with its evolving nature through the interstitial spaces, especially as it pertains to what I term Father/author(ity), a relational presence within my creative writing. I ask what the making of art may teach if we are able to accept the invitation to learn. The subject (and object) of my study moves through the charged creative dynamics in the making of the 1962 biographical film, Freud (Huston). The resulting play, The Freudian Palimpsest of Monty and John, was staged and read for an invited audience as part of the research. I locate my work as a combination of theory as practice within an extended community of playwrights, drama educators, and theatre artists. I reference Freud’s theories of play and writing (Freud & Nelson, 2009), as I inquire through the arts based educational research method of a/r/tography, which sees knowing/making/doing as métissage.
