Northern Ireland, America and the emerging church movement: Exploring the significance of Peter Rollins and the Ikon collective

The Emerging Church Movement (ECM) is a primarily Western religious phenomenon, identifiable by its critical ‘deconstruction’ of ‘modern’ religion. While most prominent in North America, especially the United States, some of the most significant contributors to the ECM ‘conversation’ have been the Belfast-based Ikon Collective and one of its founders, philosopher Peter Rollins. Their rootedness in the unique religious, political and social landscape of Northern Ireland in part explains their position on the ‘margins’ of the ECM, and provides many of the resources for their contributions. Ikon’s development of ‘transformance art’ and its ‘leaderless’ structure raise questions about the institutional viability of the wider ECM. Rollins’ ‘Pyrotheology’ project, grounded in his reading of post-modern philosophy, introduces more radical ideas to the ECM conversation. Northern Ireland’s ‘Troubles’ and ‘marginal’ location provides the ground from which Rollins and Ikon have been able to expose the boundaries of the ECM and raise questions about just how far the ECM may go in its efforts to transform Western Christianity.

Stiftsherren und Vikare des Kollegiatstifts St. Peter und Paul in Zeitz 1400–1564.

Der hier publizierte Personenkatalog ist Teil des Anhangs der im Januar 2008 von Matthias Ludwig an der Martin-Luther-Universität Halle-Wittenberg eingereichten Magisterarbeit „Das Personal der Naumburger Domkirche und der Zeitzer Stiftskirche 1400–1564. Ein prosopographischer Beitrag zur mitteldeutschen Stiftskirchenforschung“. Ausgangspunkt der Arbeit war die Frage nach der Zusammensetzung der beiden geistlichen Gemeinschaften in Naumburg und Zeitz hinsichtlich eines vorgegebenen Rasters, bestehend aus den Kriterien Herkunft, Standeszugehörigkeit, Bildung, Karriereprofil, Weihegrade und personelle Netzwerke. Das zugrunde liegende biografische Material für Zeitz wurde vor allem aus der stiftischen Überlieferung selbst erhoben, deren wesentlicher Träger das Archiv des ehemaligen Kollegiatstifts ist, das heute zum Bestand des Stiftsarchivs und der Stiftsbibliothek Zeitz gehört. Es umfasst Angaben zu insgesamt 277 Stiftsherren und Vikaren, die für den Zeitraum von 1400 bis 1564 nachgewiesen werden konnten.

Continuous Plankton Records: General Introduction to the 1938-39 Survey

The Bulletins in this volume, except the last, deal entirely with the results of this expanded survey of 1938 and 1939. They show for the first time, month by month, the main changes in the plankton over practically the whole of the North Sea for a year and eight months. They form an important basis for comparison with the results of the post-war survey, revived on an even more extensive scale and to be described in later volumes.
