Nealongiroux-The-Theory-Toolbox.Pdf 11_162_01_FM_11_162_01_FM.qxd 5/23/11 9:47 AM Page i Praise for The Theory Toolbox: “The book is an excellent introduction to basic concepts that students in humanities, science, and design need to engage in meaningful dis- cussion of culture and society. Through timely examples from popular culture and working questions that stimulate active discussion in both the classroom and in the online environment, The Theory Toolbox is my go-to guide to critical concepts, as it inspires and engenders critical thinking and reasoned dialogue for the beginning theory student.” —Renata Hejduk, Arizona State University “The Theory Toolbox is original and unusual, breaking the standard mold of social theory textbooks. It puts itself in the young theory student’s shoes and imagines what s/he needs to know, and how best to convey difficult material. A distinctive feature of this book is its interdiscipli- narity, borrowing concepts from humanities disciplines in order to enrich social and sociological theory. My theory students will definitely need this path-breaking book in their toolboxes.” —Ben Agger, University of Texas, Arlington “As a first introduction for the perplexed and confused to critical and cultural theory, there’s no better place to start than The Theory Toolbox. The new chapters ‘Life’ and ‘Nature’ are engaging and insightful. With its clear, concise, and accurate accounts of often complex theories, instructors will find this an excellent addition to any theory course; with its provocative working questions and up-to-date, funny examples, stu- dents will find this book to be illuminating and exhilarating.” —Bruce B. Janz, University of Central Florida “Students find The Theory Toolbox isn’t about learning theory through narrow interpretive lenses but thinking critically through theorizing and questioning perspectives.” —Richard Bower, Cayuga Community College “Students quickly learn to employ theoretical concepts in their own work. The authors support this development by examining theory in relation to material that may at first seem familiar but that the authors 11_162_01_FM_11_162_01_FM.qxd 5/23/11 9:47 AM Page ii then encourage the students to question in complex ways. The new chapters introduce important emerging areas of scholarship that stu- dents and instructors should find appealing.” —Tracy Neal Leavelle, Creighton University “I have used The Theory Toolbox several times in my classes, and the response from my students was extremely positive. The theories and concepts in the Toolbox are clearly presented and approachable despite the fact that these ideas are often difficult to cover at the undergraduate level. Nealon and Searls Giroux explain complex ideas using everyday poetry, music and pop culture artifacts that are readily accessible to everyone. They really get my students thinking and engaged. The new chapters on ‘Life’ and ‘Nature’ promise similar thought-provoking and lively discussions.” —Katy Wiss, Western Connecticut State University “In our deeply anti-intellectual climate, Nealon and Searls Giroux per- form the great act of showing how and why thinking still matters. From their opening engagement with the punk song ‘Why Theory?’ they give us an impassioned argument for the important uses of theory. As the title suggests, The Theory Toolbox, instead of simply reviewing schools of theory and criticism, aims to help students figure out what they can do with theoretical concepts as tools for living. The Theory Toolbox engenders pragmatic encounters with theorists from Nietzsche to Deleuze to Agamben and provides productive engagements with key concepts such as agency and ideology. Darwin, Black Sabbath, and Facebook are among a wide variety of examples that Nealon and Searls Giroux deploy to demonstrate why and how theory matters in everyday life. This edition presents compelling new chapters on ‘Life’ and ‘Nature’ animated by Foucault and the animal rights movement. For a genera- tion growing up amidst the ruins of capitalism and the endless distrac- tions of social media, this book offers a path for all students desiring to become thinking citizens.” —Kevin DeLuca, University of Georgia 11_162_01_FM_11_162_01_FM.qxd 5/23/11 9:47 AM Page iii The Theory Toolbox μ μ μ 11_162_01_FM_11_162_01_FM.qxd 5/23/11 9:47 AM Page iv CULTURE AND POLITICS SERIES General Editor: Henry A.

This book owes its largest debt to hundreds of Penn State undergraduates—who helped us to choose, debate, and refine everything in this book. We’ve also benefited immensely from discussions with other instructors who’ve used pilot versions of the text in their classes: Marco Abel, Debbie Hawhee, Jeff Karnicky, Dave Kress, Elizabeth Mazzolini, and John Muckelbauer. Susan Searls Giroux would like to thank her colleague, David L. Clark, for his rich insight regarding all things animal and two graduate students in particular for their unparalleled assistance with the second edition: Jennifer Fisher and Heather Berger. Ben Agger and Michael Greer offered crucial insight in their readings of the manuscript. We’d also like to thank Alison Sullenberger, Alden Perkins, Sallie Greenwood, and the late Alan McClare for their enormous efforts getting this text to publication. xi 11_162_01_FM_11_162_01_FM.qxd 5/23/11 9:47 AM Page xii xii Acknowledgments Many thanks to Sarah Tanguy, curator of the Hechinger art col- lection, as well as to Phil Hetherington, webmaster of Not Great Men, and Andy Gill for their help with Gang of Four’s “Why Theory?” And we’ve gotten valuable advice, as well as invaluable encour- agement, from Henry Giroux and Dean Birkenkamp. 11_162_02_Ch01_11_162_02_Ch01.qxd 5/10/11 2:51 PM Page 1 1 μ μ μ Why Theory?

  • DOCUMENTING MIRACLES in the AGE of BEDE by THOMAS EDWARD ROCHESTER
    SANCTITY AND AUTHORITY: DOCUMENTING MIRACLES IN THE AGE OF BEDE by THOMAS EDWARD ROCHESTER A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of History School of History and Cultures College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham July 2017 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. Abstract This doctoral dissertation investigates the writings of the Venerable Bede (673-735) in the context of miracles and the miraculous. It begins by exploring the patristic tradition through which he developed his own historical and hagiographical work, particularly the thought of Gregory the Great in the context of doubt and Augustine of Hippo regarding history and truth. It then suggests that Bede had a particular affinity for the Gospel of Luke and the Acts of the Apostles as models for the writing of specifically ecclesiastical history. The use of sources to attest miracle narratives in six hagiographies known to Bede from Late Antiquity are explored before applying this knowledge to Bede and five of his early Insular contemporaries. The research is rounded off by a discussion of Bede’s use of miracles in the context of reform, particularly his desire to provide adequate pastoral care through his understanding of the ideal bishop best exemplified by Cuthbert and John of Beverley.

  • Hadrian the African: Fact Sheet / Time Line (Michael Wood)
    HADRIAN THE AFRICAN – fact sheet Michael Wood, 2020 There is no separate in-depth account of Hadrian and his legacy. The key study of his life is by M Lapidge and B Bischoff Biblical Commentaries from the Canterbury School of Theodore and Hadrian Cambridge 1994 pp82-132. To draw up this fact sheet/time line I have used this along with older studies starting with AS Cook in 1923, and added new finds made over the last few years, the latest by Franck Cinato in 2017. It mainly concentrates on what we might be able to deduce about his life and career in Africa and Naples before he came to England. For all his importance, Hadrian was till recently a poorly studied figure – not least because of the difficulty of finding evidence; but the one certainty is that more is to be discovered. My article on him comes out in the October issue of the BBC History magazine. Any comments or suggestions gratefully received! 1) Hadrian was born in North Africa (in the 620s?) and died in Canterbury on January 9 709 or 710. 2) He was of ‘African race” vir natione Afir (so Bede- Hadrian was alive till Bede was in his thirties.) NB the use of this term by the likes of Virgil, Martial and Statius: it is often specifically used by Latin poets to refer to a native of Libya. Maybe then he was a Berber/Amazigh? Probably as a fluent Greek speaker he was from the Greek-speaking part of North Africa – i.e. Cyrenaica; but where exactly we don’t know.

  • H) the VENERABLE BEDE (MAY 25TH, 2020
    (h) THE VENERABLE BEDE (MAY 25TH, 2020) Readings for Today: 1 Corinthians 2: 10 – 16; Psalm 119 (118) 9 – 14; Matthew 7: 21 – 29. Bede was a Saxon, born in Northumbria about AD 680, some fifty years after the first preaching of the Gospel in that kingdom. When he was seven years old his parents gave him to the monastery of Saint Peter in Monkwearmouth, from which he later moved to its linked foundation of Saint Paul in Jarrow, where he remained as a monk for the rest of his life. The monastery was a great centre of learning, with (for its time) an extensive library. Bede was a devoted scholar: among his writings were lives of the saints, works on poetry and chronology and twenty-five biblical commentaries. But the work by which he is best known today is his Ecclesiastical History of the English People, which tells of the development of the Church among the Anglo-Saxons, from the mission of Saint Augustine in 595 to the consecration of Tatwine as ninth archbishop of Canterbury in 731. Bede’s health began to fail during Lent 735. He had said: “I have lived a long time and the Holy Judge has provided well for me during my whole life. The time of my release is near; indeed my soul longs to see Christ my king in all his beauty”. An account of his death tells that he spent his last days singing the psalms and working on a translation into English of the Gospel of John. On the Eve of Ascension Day, having been told that the translation was complete, he sat on the floor of his cell and died, singing ‘Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.’ He was buried in Jarrow, near the church in which he had worshipped, and which still stands.
