  • Beijing and the Holy See – Seeking the Common Ground Two Wounded Partners in Dialogue
    Beijing and the Holy See – Seeking the Common Ground Two Wounded Partners in Dialogue Jeroom J. Heyndrickx CICM Part 1: Why do we call them wounded? & How did the Rome–Beijing relation develop from confrontation to dialogue? The Unequal Treaties (1842–1860) were for China the most humiliating events in its his- tory. They caused wounds in the hearts of all Chinese which till now are not healed. The history of the Catholic Church in China was also full of drama. The drama of the Rites Controversy (18th Century) was partly caused by internal strife inside the Church, but most painful and leaving unhealed wounds among Catholic leaders and faithful were the dramas of the Boxer Uprising (1900) and the events of the 1950’s which culminated in the Cultural Revolution (1965–1975). This dramatic history has over the years caused sharp confrontations and an unfriendly relationship between Rome and Beijing. Given this dramatic background we consider it a breakthrough that these two wounded partners – Beijing and the Holy See – are now in dialogue seeking the common ground1instead of continuing the confrontation of the past. The following text is the contribution of Fr. Jeroom J. Heyndrickx CICM (Verbiest Institute, Catholic University of Leuven) to the 10th European Catholic China Colloquium “Laudato Si’ and Technoscience – Implications with Focus on the Church in China,” Siegburg/Germany, 30 August – 1 September 2019. The German translation of this text was published in China heute 2019, No. 3, pp. 175-185. 1 Cfr. Philip Wickery, Seeking the Common Ground, Maryknoll – New York: Orbis Books 1988, p.

  • On Watery Borders, Borderlands, and Tania Kovats' Head to Mouth
    arts Article On Watery Borders, Borderlands, and Tania Kovats’ Head to Mouth Ysanne Holt Department of Arts, Northumbria University, Newcastle upon Tyne NE1 8ST, UK; [email protected] Received: 30 June 2019; Accepted: 13 August 2019; Published: 20 August 2019 Abstract: With a relational view of landscapes and natural environments as continuously “in process” and formed from the over-layered and interdependent connections between nature and culture, the human and the non-human, this paper considers some recent practices by artists who have worked in the largely rural border region of Northern England and Southern Scotland. Expanding from a focus on the artist Tania Kovats’ 2019 Berwick Visual Arts exhibition, Head to Mouth, and a wider frame of non-anthropocentric ecological thought in relation to the visual arts, it explores the significance of diverse creative engagements with water, here with the River Tweed, and their potential value in a current cross-border context of social and environmental challenges and concern. Keywords: borderlands; ecological thinking; River Tweed; Tania Kovats; contemporary arts and environment; water; Anglo-Scottish borders 1. Introduction The UK border region of Northern England and Southern Scotland is sparsely populated and often perceived and experienced as marginal and remote, with associations either of peace and tranquility, or of isolation and peripherality. Amidst social and political anxieties wrought by referenda on Scottish Independence (2014) and Brexit (2016), and the environmental problems that face this primarily rural, cross-border location overall, the significance of its shared resources, practices, and identities and the value in this context of recent forms of visual arts practice are important considerations.

    COUNTERPOINT | SOFT SKULL FRANKFURT 2012 | RIGHTS GUIDE CONTACT US: Rights: Judy Klein, Kleinworks Agency [email protected] Liz Parker, Publishing Manager [email protected] HOT LIST Counterpoint | Soft Skull MOTHERLAND by Maria Hummel World English | FICTION | January 2014 | Counterpoint | MSS February 2013 Lifted from the stories of the author’s father and his German childhood and letters be- tween her grandparents that were hidden in an attic wall for fifty years,Motherland focuses on a German family during WWII: a reconstructive surgeon loses his wife in childbirth and two months later marries a young woman who must look after the baby and his two griev- ing sons when he is drafted into medical military service. We follow her attempts to keep them safe as their German city is bombed by the Allies, their town is faced with the swell- ing population of desperate refugees, and one son begins to mentally unravel. Each family member’s fateful choices lead them deeper into questions of complicity and innocence, to the novel’s unforgettable conclusion. Maria Hummel is a Stegner Fellow at Stanford University and her work has appeared in Ploughshares, The Sun, The Believer and has won a Pushcart Prize. Her first novel,Wilderness Run (SMP, 2002) was an alternate selection of Doubleday Lit Guild.

It was the summer of 1928, and Valerie Patterson sensitively captures the time and place, the drama and the desire, the glory and the catastrophe of how these girls got there and what happened to them in Amsterdam that year.
