A Formation of Scriptural Imagination Imagining Death—and Dying Well BY ALLEN VERHEY BY C. KAVIN ROWE I was so grateful to learn that many people appreciate the great opportunity provided by the Divinity Annual Fund. ~ Goodie Bell, D’13 Ministry Made Possible by You Here’s an important question: How many people does it take to make possible a seminary education? Answer: Unlimited—and your help is needed! Goodie Bell came to Duke Divinity School after spending time in campus ministry. She knew God was calling her to service for the church, and she wanted to pursue this call and be trained here with faculty and students who were committed to the church. But she never could have afforded the tuition on her own. That’s where the supporters to Divinity Annual Fund come into the picture. With help from the annual fund, Goodie is about to graduate and go into ministry—a ministry made possible by friends and donors who believe in the importance of God’s church and well-prepared ministers. Every gift makes a difference. Every gift is welcome. Join us today with a gift to Divinity Annual Fund, and make ministry possible. For more information about helping students answer the call to ministry through Divinity Annual Fund, call 919-660-3456.

  • Abstract Violence and Heteronormativity in Gay
    ABSTRACT VIOLENCE AND HETERONORMATIVITY IN GAY-THEMED FILMS Anna-Marie Malley, M.A. Department of Sociology Northern Illinois University, 2017 Kerry O. Ferris, Director Drawing from a sample of 15 “gay/lesbian”-themed films shown in theaters in the U.S. between 1980 to 2016, a qualitative analysis was conducted of the film narratives, looking at the co-constructions of queer (LGBTQ) identity and violence. Films were selected based on widest theatrical release within the genre list “Gay/Lesbian.” Both the categories of queer identity and violence were drawn broadly to incorporate both easily identifiable and “ambiguously” queer characters, as well as to account for both physical and nonphysical forms of violence. Analysis identifies plot developments of exclusion, threat, and physical forms of harm as expressions of violence and argues that to varying degrees these expressions of violence mark queer protagonists and other queer supporting characters as deviant and/or damned within their fictitious social realities.

Dans ce monde brutal dominé par les instincts primaires, la survie passe par une stricte discipline, faite de fuite permanente et de subterfuges. Mais il le sait, son plus grand défi est ailleurs: alors que tout s'effondre, comment maintenir l'illusion d'un quotidien insouciant et préserver la complicité fusionnelle avec sa fille ? 2 NOTE D’INTENTION DU RÉALISATEUR En tant que cinéaste, je suis attiré par les histoires qui mettent en valeur notre humanité. L'histoire d'un parent dévoué par-dessus tout à son enfant en est une dans laquelle j'espère que tout un chacun pourra se retrouver. En tant que père de deux enfants, je leur ai raconté beaucoup d'histoires au moment du coucher. Chacune, bien que parfois inspirée de celle d'avant, devait être inventée de toutes pièces sous peine d’encourir la critique de leur part.
