Father McShane introduced Dr Stephen Freedman, the new Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs and Chief Academic Officer. After explaining the recent decision of the Union of British Academics to endorse a Palestinian trade union’s call for a boycott of Israeli academic institutions, Father McShane noted his respectful disagreement with this action. He informed the Senate that this summer he had signed two documents, one a petition circulated by Scholars for Peace in the Middle East, another by the American Jewish Committee, so as to make clear that Fordham University stands in solidarity with Israeli academics and those who affirm the principles of academic discourse.

  • Cultural Identity and the Peacemaking Process
    Settimana del Dottorato in Storia 17-18-19 Settembre 2013 Indirizzo: Studi storici delle religioni XXVIII ciclo CULTURAL IDENTITY AND THE PEACEMAKING PROCESS. The case of Christians in Israel and the Palestinian Territories Presentato da Tutor Elisa Farinacci Prof.ssa Cristiana Facchini Discussant Prof.ssa Francesca Biancani Introduction This research constitutes an in fieri project which aims at analyzing and problematizing the presence and role of the Arab Palestinian Christian population in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Our focus is on understanding if and how the peace process could undergo revitalization and gain new momentum from the grassroots. We would like to ascertain if religious fervor and motivation have an active role in mending the relationships between the groups involved in the conflict and eventually influence state policies. As Paul Rowe asserts, in the past ten to twenty years of Scholarship on Christian groups in the Middle East, specialists have begun to «recognize[d] the agency of a population long objectified in both academic and polemical circles» (Rowe 2010, 472). Before then, Christians were long thought of as the objects of other actors such as the “products” of Muslim societies who imposed upon them the status of ahl al-dimma , or as «appendages of external forces […] as vehicles of imperialism» (Ibid.). Although these tropes still persist, over the last years, scholars have begun to consider and analyze the agency of Arab and other Middle Eastern Christians; «today we begin to understand the way [in which] the Christians operate not solely as a minority or as an extension of Western civilization but also as centuries-old groups rooted in the history and culture of the Middle East» (Ibid.).

Certainly the Jews – “the lost sheep of the house of Israel” But what about the Canaanite Woman whose daughter was tormented by a demon? Who would be admitted to his Holy Mountain? This questioned what was debated by the prophets. Isaiah tells us that salvation is possible for those who keep the Sabbath and hold fast to the covenant. Indeed foreigners could join themselves to the Lord. As the Canaanite Woman approaches Jesus she does so in the form of prayer… “Lord, Son of David”, but Jesus doesn’t answer her at all.” As she persists, Jesus responds that, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.” She was on the outside looking in.

  • Father Giovanni Gaddo (8Th Provost General)
    Father Giovanni Gaddo (8th Provost General) by Domenico Mariani (Translated by J. Anthony Dewhirst) Is it possible that a little boy of 12 could be convinced that he had a religious vocation, to the point of devoting himself to serve the Lord all his life with the vows of poverty, chastity and obedience in a religious Institute? Would he have sufficient maturity and knowledge of his own powers and human life to be definitely sure about it? Or would it not rather be autosuggestion, domestic economic problems, or the influence of some good person influencing his choice? We know how modern psychologists would answer these questions. But we can say positively and absolutely ‘yes’. This is borne out by the reality of the facts; for instance, his life, the supernatural gift of a religious vocation, in which grace is grafted on to human nature, and incessant prayer reinforcing his human efforts. Giovanni Ferdinando Angelo Gaddo was born of Carlo and Maria Amiotti at Vercelli, the Casa Borgogna in the Via del Duomo, on 7 February1895. His father was a worker in marble, and this work provided for the upkeep of the family. His mother was a housewife and died early (1903?), so little Giovanni and his sister Lucia (a year his junior) were looked after by their grandmother. But she also passed away in 1907 and the Parish Priest of Crescentino, Don Pietro Gianotti, taking an interest in the family, wrote to Don Policarpo Garibaldi, the Novice Master at Calvario in Domodossola, in order that he might intercede with the Provincial, Giambattista Pagani, to accept the boy into the Institute of Charity.

Marteijn PhD Candidate, School of Divinity, Centre for the Study of World Christianity, University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh, UK [email protected] Abstract Palestinian Christians are a minority of approximately 1 or 2% in a context marked by conflict, expulsions, and ongoing emigration. Despite all this, Palestinian Christians have made a significant contribution to society in the spheres of politics, the arts, sci- ence, and social welfare. Moreover, from the 1980s onwards, this Palestinian context of struggle has also been the source for the emergence of a socially and politically committed contextual theology. This article analyses the development of Palestinian contextual theology by examining theological publications by Palestinian theologians. It identifies liberation, reconciliation, witness, ecumenism, and interfaith-dialogue as some of the dominant theological themes. What unites these publications is a theological engagement with the Palestinian Christian identity in the context of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Keywords contextual theology – Israeli-Palestinian conflict – Kairos theology – Palestinian Christianity – Palestinian theology – public theology 1 An Arab Christian Awakening Palestinian Christians feel deeply rooted in Palestinian society. They under- stand themselves as part of the Palestinian community and actively contribute to its flourishing.

    Funeral arrangements for Fr. Joseph Koterski, S.J., who went home to the Lord on August 9th, 2021. Mass of Christian Burial: Tuesday, August 17, 11:00 AM Fordham University Church Viewing: 9:30—11:00 AM. • Priests who wish to concelebrate should vest by 10:30 AM in the lower Church. Deacons may also vest there. • To be admitted to the Fordham campus and attend the Mass or viewing, proof of vaccination against Covid-19 must be shown to campus security. Fr. Koterski was a highly regarded philosophy professor at Fordham University with many publications on moral and theological topics and a Jesuit who had a heart for forming priests in the Catholic intellectual tradition. For many of our seminarians at Douglaston and Dunwoodie, he was either an engaging lecturer or a cherished spiritual director. And for some he was both. Please pray for this great priest- scholar, a son of Saint Ignatius of Loyola who gave his all— ad majorem Dei gloriam (“for the greater glory of God”)!
