  • Heterotopia And
    1111 2 Heterotopia and the City 3 4 5111 6 7 8 9 1011 1 2 3111 Heterotopia, literally meaning ‘other places’, is a rich concept in urban design 4 that describes a world off-center with respect to normal or everyday spaces, 5 one that possesses multiple, fragmented, or even incompatible meanings. The 6 term has had an impact on architectural and urban theory since it was coined 7 by Foucault in the late 1960s but has remained a source of confusion and 8 debate since. Heterotopia and the City seeks to clarify this concept and investi- 9 gates the heterotopias which exist throughout our contemporary world: in 20111 museums, theme parks, malls, holiday resorts, gated communities, wellness 1 hotels, and festival markets. 2 The book combines theoretical contributions on the concept of heterotopia, 3 including a new translation of Foucault’s influential 1967 text, Of Other Spaces, 4 with a series of critical case studies that probe a range of (post-) urban 5 transformations, from the ‘malling’ of the agora, through the ‘gating’ of dwelling, 6 to the ‘theming’ of urban renewal. Wastelands and terrains vagues are explored as sites of promise and resistance in a section on urban activism and trans- 7 gression. The reader gets a glimpse of the extremes of our dualized, postcivil 8 condition through case studies on Jakarta, Dubai, and Kinshasa. 9 Heterotopia and the City provides a collective effort to reposition heterotopia 30111 as a crucial concept for contemporary urban theory and redirects the current 1 debate on the privatization of public space.

  • Eliza Burt Gamble the God Idea of the Ancients Or Sex in Religion Presented by Semantikon.Com
    Eliza Burt Gamble The God Idea of the Ancients or Sex in Religion Presented by semantikon.com PREFACE. Much of the material for this volume was collected during the time that I was preparing for the press the Evolution of Woman, or while searching for data bearing on the subject of sex-specialization. While preparing that book for publication, it was my intention to include within it this branch of my investigation, but wishing to obtain certain facts relative to the foundations of religious belief and worship which were not accessible at that time, and knowing that considerable labor and patience would be required in securing these facts, I decided to publish the first part of the work, withholding for the time being that portion of it pertaining especially to the development of the God-idea. As mankind construct their own gods, or as the prevailing ideas of the unknowable reflect the inner consciousness of human beings, a trustworthy history of the growth of religions must correspond to the processes involved in the mental, moral, and social development of the individual and the nation. By means of data brought forward in these later times relative to the growth of the God-idea, it is observed that an independent chain of evidence has been produced in support of the facts recently set forth bearing upon the development of the two diverging lines of sexual demarcation. In other words, it has been found that sex is the fundamental fact not only in the operations of Nature but in the construction of a god.

  • Icons on the International Space Station
    religions Article Eternity in Low Earth Orbit: Icons on the International Space Station Wendy Salmond 1, Justin Walsh 1 and Alice Gorman 2,* 1 Department of Art, Chapman University, Orange, CA 92866, USA; [email protected] (W.S.); [email protected] (J.W.) 2 Department of Archaeology, Flinders University, Bedford Park, SA 5042, Australia * Correspondence: alice.gorman@flinders.edu.au Received: 15 October 2020; Accepted: 10 November 2020; Published: 17 November 2020 Abstract: This paper investigates the material culture of icons on the International Space Station as part of a complex web of interactions between cosmonauts and the Russian Orthodox Church, reflecting contemporary terrestrial political and social affairs. An analysis of photographs from the International Space Station (ISS) demonstrated that a particular area of the Zvezda module is used for the display of icons, both Orthodox and secular, including the Mother of God of Kazan and Yuri Gagarin. The Orthodox icons are frequently sent to space and returned to Earth at the request of church clerics. In this process, the icons become part of an economy of belief that spans Earth and space. This practice stands in contrast to the prohibition against displaying political/religious imagery in the U.S.-controlled modules of ISS. The icons mark certain areas of ISS as bounded sacred spaces or hierotopies, separated from the limitless outer space beyond the space station walls. Keywords: International Space Station; iconography; hierotopy; material culture; sacred space; cosmonaut 1. Introduction How the perspective of being outside the world—that is, in space—changes personal approaches to spirituality among space travelers has been the subject of numerous studies (e.g., Suedfeld 2006; Weibel 2016, 2020; Weibel and Swanson 2006).

  • Orthodox Christianity and Gender
    Orthodox Christianity and Gender The Orthodox Christian tradition has all too often been sidelined in conversations around contemporary religion. Despite being distinct from Protestantism and Ca- tholicism in both theology and practice, it remains an underused setting for aca- demic inquiry into current lived religious practice. This collection, therefore, seeks to redress this imbalance by investigating modern manifestations of Orthodox Christianity through an explicitly gender-sensitive gaze. By addressing attitudes to gender in this context, it fills major gaps in the literature on both religion and gender. Starting with the traditional teachings and discourses around gender in the Orthodox Church, the book moves on to demonstrate the diversity of responses to those narratives that can be found among Orthodox populations in Europe and North America. Using case studies from several countries, with both large and small Orthodox populations, contributors use an interdisciplinary approach to ad- dress how gender and religion interact in contexts such as iconography, conversion, social activism, and ecumenical relations among others. From Greece and Russia to Finland and the USA, this volume sheds new light on the myriad ways in which gender is manifested, performed, and engaged within contemporary Orthodoxy. Furthermore, it also demonstrates that employing the analytical lens of gender enables new insights into Orthodox Christianity as a lived tradition. It will, therefore, be of great interest to scholars of both Religious Studies and Gender Studies.
