There is nothing new about the prospect of a probable end of humanity at a more or less 1 distant moment in time. It will be remembered that the danger associated with the atomic bomb aroused a deep collective fear, especially in the 1960s. While this fear has not yet completely disappeared, it has nevertheless been replaced by the prospect of a much slower but also more certain end. Yet the anxieties that this perspective provokes do not have a lesser impact on the collective psyche. How can we continue to hope in the future of humanity? Is it reasonable to hope for decisive action by political leaders and for the practical effectiveness of a collective and global awareness of the changes needed? Will humanity be capable of a profound conversion of its ways of life? What role can the Christian faith play in the future? How can the hope that this faith has always brought, even in times of catastrophe and great desolation, be translated into the concrete life of those who profess it? ‘First Reformed - Creation at Risk’ We would like to give some elements of a response by considering a film and a book. The film is First Reformed - Creation at Risk and was released in the United States in 2017. The book is Le Mal qui vient (The Evil That is Coming) and La Civiltà Cattolica, En. Ed. Vol. 4, no. 01 art. 1, 0120: 10.32009/22072446.2001.1 MARC RASTOIN, SJ was published in France in 2018. Even if their authors come from very different cultural and intellectual contexts, they still share common questions, in particular about the consequences of a birthrate in a world whose horizon seems to be becoming increasingly dark. In fact, a form of radical Malthusianism in ecological and ethical guises is spreading among Western urban youth, and those who believe there is a need to give a response that is both reasonable and evangelical. Paul Schrader, the director of First Reformed - Creation at Risk, is well known in the United States for writing the script for Taxi Driver (1976). Although he is essentially a screenwriter, since 1978 he has also worked as a director. First Reformed - Creation at Risk is his 22nd film. Schrader 2 is also known for having published in 1972 a work that was appreciated by film critics: Transcendental Style in Cinema: Ozu, Bresson, Dreyer. In this latest film, Schrader reveals his taste for a cinema that could be defined as “metaphysical.” As an adult he has distanced himself from the rigid Calvinist tradition of his childhood, while continuing to call himself a Christian. By his own admission, First Reformed - Creation at Risk is a kind of manifesto of his cinematic principles. The film has received numerous awards, as well as being nominated in 2018 for the Oscar for best screenplay. It is explicitly inspired by two famous films: Robert Bresson’s 1951 Diary of a Country Priest and Ingmar Bergman’s 1963 Winter Light. Both films are deeply spiritual Christian dramas. Inthe first of these two films, obviously very close to the novel by Georges Bernanos, Schrader retains the idea of a tormented priest who keeps a spiritual diary. The main character in Schrader’s film is not Catholic, but he reads some Catholic writers, such as Thomas Merton, lives a life of profound loneliness and regularly wears the cassock. Like the character of Bernanos, he is very sick but is reluctant to take serious care of himself. Of course, it would be easy to consider him prey to depression, but this would risk too hastily excluding, or at least minimizing, the properly spiritual dimension of his inner drama. LIVE YOUR FAITH FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF THE END This character embodies, one might say, the suffering dimension of Christianity. One day he observes sharply: “How easily those who have never prayed speak of prayer.” Like the monk Anatoly from Pavel Louguine’s film The Island, he lives prayer with intensity and coherence. Every Sunday, in front of a very small congregation, he ascends to the pulpit as if he were going over the top. Resist in the faith Schrader’s film draws several interesting elements from Ingmar Bergman’s screenplay. In the Swedish director’s film, a couple experience a moment of trial. The man is extremely anxious about the existence of Chinese nuclear weapons and the prospect of the destruction of humanity. Is it still worth 3 living and having children with such a threat looming on the horizon? In Schrader’s screenplay, on the other hand, it is the radical ecological crisis, the ineluctable nature of global warming and its socio-political consequences that puts the young husband, William, into crisis, prompting him to refuse to welcome a new child. His young pregnant wife is a believer and turns to Pastor Toller – the name is obviously not chosen by chance, being a clear allusion to the medieval mystic John Tauler (1300-61) and the importance he attached to the theology of the cross – hoping that he will be able to help her husband out of depression. Refusing to bow to contemporary cinematic norms, the film is a wonderful tribute to the filmmakers admired by this writer/director. Without being afraid of silence, of the austerity of a meditative temporal pause, this film gives viewers time to reflect, refusing to offer all the answers. In a film that is superbly written and magnificently interpreted, Schrader offers a glimpse into the drama of faith that confronts the

  • Pm Nick Cave 14.02.2013
    FKP Scorpio Konzertproduktionen GmbH Große Elbstr. 277 a · 22767 Hamburg Tel. (040) 853 88 888 · www.fkpscorpio.com PRESSEMITTEILUNG 14.02.2013 Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds am 10. November in der Sporthalle Nick Cave begnügt sich bekanntermaßen nicht damit nur ein künstlerisch-kreatives Feld zu bestellen. Im Gegenteil: die Vielfältigkeit seines Saatguts ist in den letzten Jahren immer noch gewachsen. So tat Cave sich in den letzten Jahren nicht nur als Buchautor hervor, sondern wagte sich auch an das Schreiben von Drehbüchern und lieferte gemeinsam mit seinem Bandkollegen Warren Ellis die Filmmusik zu Andrew Dominiks „Die Ermordung des Jesse James durch den Feigling Robert Ford“. Im Konglomerat seiner Nebenprojekte nicht zu vergessen: sein musikalisches Nebenprojekt Grinderman, mit dem er zeigte, dass er sich auch vortrefflich auf sachlich-nüchternen Rock’n’Roll versteht. Egal welches Feld Cave gerade beackert, Beifall von Fans und Presse erntet er dafür immer. Aktuell hat seine Band Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds oberste Priorität: Mitte Februar erscheint das neue Album „Push The Sky Away“. Ein Werk subtiler Schönheit, über das Cave sagt: „Wenn ich die abgedroschene Metapher verwenden wollte, dass Alben wie Kinder sind, dann wäre „Push The Sky Away“ das Geisterbaby im Brutkasten und Warrens Loops wären der Rhythmus seines winzigen, zitternden Herzens“. Im Herbst 2013 kommen Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds auf Deutschlandtournee. Die Zeiten, da man sich im Anschluss eines Konzerts, Geschichten eines Frontmanns erzählte, der vollkommen zugedröhnt von der Bühne gestürzt war oder sich minutenlang auf dem Boden gewälzt hatte, gehören der Vergangenheit an. Der Familienvater Cave hat den Drogen lange abgeschworen.

The project looks into the gap in understanding legitimacy between external policy-makers, who are more likely to hold a procedural notion of legitimacy, and local citizens who have a more substantive conception, based on their lived experiences. Moreover, external policymakers often assume that conflicts in the Arab world are caused by deep- seated divisions usually expressed in terms of exclusive identities.

So runs the epigraph, taken from the Biblical book of Job, to the Australian songwriter Nick Cave’s collected lyrics.1 Using such a quotation invites anyone who listens to Cave’s songs to see them as instructive addresses, a feeling compounded by an on-record intensity matched by few in the history of popular music. From his earliest work in the late 1970s with his bands The Boys Next Door and The Birthday Party up to his most recent releases with long- time collaborators The Bad Seeds, it appears that he is intent on spreading some sort of message. This essay charts how Cave’s songs, which as Robert Eaglestone notes take religion as ‘a primary discourse that structures and shapes others’,2 consistently use the blues as a platform from which to deliver his dispatches. The first chapter draws particularly on recent writing by Andrew Warnes and Adam Gussow to elucidate why Cave’s earlier songs have the blues and his Christian faith dovetailing so frequently.
