A place of incarceration and liberation, political debate and historical denial, the H Block cell units of Long Kesh/Maze prison in Northern Ireland housed members of both Republican and Loyalist military groups during 'The Troubles' and are now considered 'icons' of that conflict. The H Block's dual status as an articulation of and resistance against power mean that the area is still one of the most contested sites of conflict in Europe. Bas...

In Movies with Stanley Cavell in Mind, some of the scholars who have become essential for our understanding of Stanley Cavell's writing on film gather to use his landmark contributions to help us read new films-from Hollywood and elsewhere-that exist beyond his immediate reach and reading. In extending the scope of Cavell's film philosophy, we naturally find ourselves contending with it and amending it, as the case may be. Through a series of ...

A film that will let you see the music and listen to drawings, in a word, a film full of Fantasia!" Bruno Bozzetto's Allegro non Troppo tips its hand right away: it is an unabashed, yet full of admiration, retake on Walt Disney's 1940 "concert feature".

William S. Campbell provides a comprehensive commentary on Paul's most challenging letter. In conversation with reception history and previous scholarship, he emphasizes the contextuality of Romans as a letter to Rome, using social identity theory combined with historical, literary and theological perspectives to arrive at a coherent reading of the entire letter. Because Paul has never visited Rome and is not the founder of the Christ-movement...

Manchen Menschen vertrauen wir spontan, anderen misstrauen wir. Wir vertrauen auch der Technik, unserer Regierung, Medikamenten - oder eben gerade nicht. Vertrauen und Misstrauen regeln vor allem auch unsere Beziehungen: Sie haben zu tun mit Bindung und Autonomie, betreffen unseren Umgang mit der Angst und mit unserer Verletzlichkeit. In ihrem neuen Buch schlägt Verena Kast einen weiten Bogen: von psychologischen Konzepten - etwa der Bindungst...
