Full textAbstract:
This paper examines Derrida's treatment of the quasi-transcendental structure of hospitality, particularly as it pertains to religious traditions, conceptions of human rights, and modern secularism. It begins by looking to the account Derrida presents in ‘Hostipitality’, focusing especially on his treatment of the work of Louis Massignon. It then proceeds to an exploration of Kant's concept of cosmopolitanism and some of its contemporary descendants before returning to Derrida's treatment of hospitality by way of his critique of this Kantian heritage. The paper argues both that religious traditions exhibit (though, perhaps, often not explicitly) the kind of structures of openness to difference to which Derrida's notion of hospitality refers, and that modern Western conceptions of secularism too easily preclude understanding and fostering those aspects of religious traditions which can contribute to more peaceful coexistence in pluralistic environments.

Full textAbstract:
This article examines the hospitality practices of pro-migrant civil society organisations in Istanbul. Drawing from qualitative interviews, we focus on intersecting gendered, professionalised and faith-based aspects of pro-migrant activities and explore the ways that politically and morally charged ambivalences of hospitality practices are articulated and negotiated. Moreover, by contextualising Turkey’s religious and geopolitical particularity as a gatekeeper of Europe, we work with Derrida’s concept of plural laws to investigate hospitality practices towards refugees in Istanbul. Civil actors’ intentions and attempts to be good citizens, Muslims, and care providers expose the intimate aspects of hospitality – a segue into discourses of displaced subjects’ (gendered) deservingness. By portraying how macro–micro, global–local and public–private relations condition hospitality practices, we observe how globalisation is lived intimately, influencing perceptions of deservingness and the prioritisation of displaced subjects’ needs.

Abstract The presented paper focuses primarily on the tourism activities of teaching staff at universities and other research institutions. This applies in particular to travel during which the principal purpose is, inter alia, various exploratory internships, conferences, trips as a guest professor or a visiting professor under the auspices of the Erasmus and Erasmus Mundus programs. These peregrinations require extra effort, not only with regards to teaching and research duties, but also present opportunities to confront, test and evaluate one’s own research results and outlook with new listeners in new locations in different environments. This travel especially applies to the foreign environment, a situation that presents high degrees of professional, scientific and linguistic challenges, resulting in increased contributions and activity to the specific field of science. Regardless of the workload and the difficulties of the discussed travel, such travel can also bring about much personal satisfaction: a) due to a sense of a well done job as a result of meeting expectations of the employer and the host placed on the 'messenger of science' and b) due to the pleasure associated with those tourist experiences having autotelic and pragmatic (instrumental) overtones

Full textAbstract:
Purpose – This paper aims to explore the ways in which religious tourism in India fosters religious tolerance. Design/methodology/approach – The paper uses a conceptual apparatus derived from the basic structure of religious tourism comprising motivation, journey and destination, to understand various aspects of tolerance. Tolerance, with the implicit meaning of diversity and pluralism, is examined at two levels – intra-religion and inter-religion – using field investigations from three Hindu pilgrimage sites, namely, Vrindavan, Tuljapur, Shegaon and review of one Muslim site called Ajmer Sharif. These sites exhibit a range of combinations, sectarian traditions within Hindu and their interactions with others, including Muslims and foreigners. Findings – Each of the sites provides different sets of opportunities for the “others” to get exposed to religious and cultural aspects. It is found that tolerance within the Hindu sects and with non-Hindus from other religious faiths is a function of their engagement with cultural performances and participation in the religious tourism economy in a pilgrimage site. Originality/value – On a broader level, this paper argues that conceptualising tolerance within a social and cultural sphere helps in a better understanding of tolerance and identifying areas within religious tourism where it can be promoted. A conscious effort to promote tolerance through religious tourism will add value to religious tourism and help it thrive.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to discuss various aspects of the development of the places of apparitions and miraculous images, motives and behavioral characteristics of pilgrims coming to the miraculous places of the Virgin Mary in Lithuania. Design/methodology/approach – The paper reviews literature about miraculous events and presents miraculous places in Lithuania (apparition places of the Virgin Mary and sites of miraculous images). Various classifications are applied. Pilgrims ' motivation and behavioral aspects are analyzed based on the quantitative survey. Findings – The research showed that the main motives of religious pilgrims visiting miraculous places were asking for God’s grace, health, expressing gratitude to Jesus or Virgin Mary as well as spiritual quest and renewal. These places attract pilgrims who want to solve different problems in their life or to recover from illnesses. Religious pilgrimage has different forms and rituals, and constitutes different models of the specific behavior. During the journey, pilgrims perform various religious practices such as praying, singing hymns, kissing the relics, etc. The grouping of devotional rituals performed during the pilgrimage and at the destination place is presented. Originality/value – The paper is important to the researchers of pilgrimage and religious tourism. For the first time, miraculous places of Lithuania are analyzed in the broader international context. Classifications of the miraculous sites indicate various aspects of the development of these places. Motives and behavioral characteristics of pilgrims enable to better understand the multidimensional reality of religious pilgrimage.

The hospitality and tourism sector is considered the backbone for economicgrowth, especially in developing countries. However, this thriving sector is particularly vulnerable to naturaland human-made disasters. This study assesses the impact of the COVID-19 (coronavirus disease-2019) pandemic in India’s hospitality and tourism sector by addressing essential aspects such as current conditions and challenges as well as future perspectives. The secondary research methodology has been applied for the research. For data collection, the secondary data has been collected through literature, journal articles, government documents, etc. The research findings show that COVID-19 in India has significantly affected the hospitality and tourism sector. Global and domestic tourists have canceled their programs to visit the natural, historical, religious, and cultural sites. The flight tickets and the hotel reservations have been canceled. A significant number of workers in the sector have lost their jobs. This pandemic has affected the economy of the country as well as the well-being of the individuals to a large extent. As the intensification of the COVID-19 is being thought to cause a long-term impact, this study could be relevant to the decision-makers in regards to the crucial task of reviving the sector.

Migrant workers are marginalized and suffering people in Taiwan at present-day. There are discussions about issue of migrant worker from economical, legal, political and cultural perspectives, but rarely from religious aspects. In this paper, the author intends to approach it from the aspect of contextual theology. Firstly, the author would analyze the marginalized situations of migrant workers in Taiwan. In a sense, they are what contextual theologian identified as marginalized and suffering people or so called “minjung.” Secondly, the author would observe how Christian churches and institutes respond to the plight of migrant workers by practicing missio Dei. Thirdly, the author would reflect the theological meaning of migrant workers by interpreting the biblical texts and the parable of Jesus concerning the kingdom of God, and point out to do justly, to be compassionate and to practice hospitality to migrant workers are imperative of social ethics of Christians at present-day.

Purpose While former literature has shown that people have a strong tendency to seek religious support during difficult times, knowledge gaps exist in how the mechanism of religiosity works to support employees’ mental status and performance. Therefore, based on self-categorization theory, this study aims to examine the effects of employees’ intrinsic and extrinsic religiosity on building their mental toughness and mindfulness and the further formation of employees’ political skills. Design/methodology/approach Data was collected from 404 full-time hotel employees working in 34 hotels in Turkey during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic in spring 2020. Structural equation modeling was used to examine the proposed hypotheses. Findings Results of this study show that intrinsic religiosity improves employees’ mental toughness, while extrinsic religiosity enhances employee mindfulness. Additionally, both mental toughness and mindfulness help employees to develop political skill. Research limitations/implications This study enriches knowledge to workplace religiosity literature and expands the research scope of religion-related research in hospitality and tourism literature. Future studies are recommended to consider religious heterogeneity and longitudinal design. Practical implications To foster employee mental well-being, hotel firms should create a religious-friendly workplace and develop religion-friendly policies. Opportunities should be created within hospitality organizations for employees to develop and use their political skills in needed work aspects. Originality/value The findings of this study contribute to valuable theoretical and practical implications. To the best of the knowledge, this study is one of the first attempts to study hotel employees’ religiosity during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Full textAbstract:
As peregrinações e romarias têm sido objeto de estudos sob diferentes perspectivas, dentre as quais a do turismo religioso e da hospitalidade. É nesse contexto que se situa o presente trabalho, trazendo à reflexão relações de hospitalidade na Romaria ao Santuário de Nossa Senhora de Caravaggio – Farroupilha/RS, sob a ótica do romeiro. Essa é uma prática religiosa, culturalmente instituída, que perdura por mais de um século e que se realiza anualmente, mobilizando milhares de pessoas a cada edição e envolvendo não só moradores do município, mas também de outras cidades do Rio Grande do Sul e, até mesmo, de outros estados. A Romaria a Caravaggio abarca também uma ampla estrutura receptiva, promovendo interações de cunho pessoal, social, institucional. Nesse sentido, num contexto teórico para o qual confluem conceitos de espiritualidade e religiosidade, turismo religioso e hospitalidade, tem-se como objetivo identificar e analisar, via discurso, sinalizadores de relações de hospitalidade sob a perspectiva do romeiro e sintetizar interpretativamente as relações emergentes dessa análise. O desenvolvimento da pesquisa, de caráter prioritariamente qualitativo e com procedimentos metodológicos desenhados a partir de uma abordagem hermenêutica, compreendeu entrevistas semiestruturadas com participantes da Romaria do ano de 2012. Mediante técnicas de análise de conteúdo e de análise de marcas enunciativas, foram categorizados fragmentos das respostas dos entrevistados. Os sinalizadores discursivos apontam, no que tange à hospitalidade, para a predominância de aspectos vinculados ao planejamento e à organização socioadministrativa da Romaria, seguidos das relações sócio-humanas que nela se efetivam. Esses sinalizadores foram ainda analisados estabelecendo-se elos com as manifestações dos sujeitos sobre as motivações para a ida a Caravaggio, a experiência de participação no evento, assim como os destaques que seriam dados sobre a Romaria a um eventual futuro romeiro – o que possibilitou, com o apoio de subsídios empíricos, aportar um outro olhar teórico sobre os conceitos de peregrinação/romaria e turismo religioso.Submitted by Ana Guimarães Pereira (agpereir@ucs.br) on 2015-02-11T11:43:13Z No. of bitstreams: 1 Dissertacao Monica Schneider.pdf: 3680753 bytes, checksum: ef072c86c760cc56369bda314fbc1fa8 (MD5)

The peregrinations and pilgrimages are being object of studies under different perspectives among which are the religious tourism and the hospitality. It is in this context that the present study is situated bringing up for reflection the hospitality relationships in the Pilgrimage to the Sanctuary of Nossa Senhora de Caravaggio – Farroupilha/RS under the pilgrim’s point of view. This is a religious practice, culturally established, which has been done for more than a century and which takes place yearly and mobilizes thousands of people in each edition. It receives not only the town’s residents, but also people from all over the state of Rio Grande do Sul and even people from other states in Brazil. The Pilgrimage to Caravaggio also spans a wide welcoming structure promoting personal, social and institutional interactions. On this sense, in a theoretic context for which converges concepts of spirituality and religiousness, religious tourism and hospitality have as their objective to identify and analyze, via speech, signs of hospitality relationships under the pilgrim’s point of view and to synthesize in a way to interpret the emergent relationships of this analysis. The development of the research, in a qualitative overriding feature and with methodological procedures drawn from a hermeneutical approach embraced semi-structured interviews with participants of the 2012 Pilgrimage to the Sanctuary of Caravaggio. Trough analysis techniques of content and from analysis of enunciative marks the interviewees’ responses were categorized and fragmented. The discursive results point, in which refers to hospitality, for a predominance of bounded aspects to the socio-administrative planning and the organization of the Pilgrimage followed by the socio-human relationships that effect on it. These results were still analyzed establishing bounds with the subjects’ manifestations related to the purposes which led them for wanting to go to Caravaggio, the experience related to the participation in the event, as well as the highlights about the Pilgrimage, which would be given to further and occasional pilgrim – which enabled, with the support of empiric subsidies, to contribute to a different theoretic perspective on the concepts of peregrination/pilgrimage and religious tourism.

La présente recherche vise à fonder l'hospitalité comme une notion théologique. Nous voudrions, en effet, vérifier dans cette recherche conduite à la lumière du récit de la Rencontre de Mambré (Gn 18) qu'elle représente et engage toujours le divin et cela aussi dans d'autres traditions religieuses que la tradition chrétienne. Après avoir exploré la valeur de l'hospitalité en creusant l'arrière-fond des mythes, des symboles, des motifs littéraires et d'un certain univers mental qui constitue, plus ou moins directement, l'héritage proche oriental commun et intégré dans les textes sacrés des trois monothéismes, nous en viendrons à l'histoire de l'exégèse de Gn 18 et à un regard comparatif sur l'interprétation de la théophanie de Mambré dans les trois religions abrahamiques. Sur la base de cette enquête et en déclinant la catégorie de l'hospitalité, nous voudrions ouvrir de nouvelles perspectives de recherche concernant certains sujets sensibles de la réflexion théologique contemporaineThis study aims to found hospitality as a theological notion. We would therefore wish to ascertain in this research which is led in the light of the narrative of the meeting at Mamre (Gen 18) that hospitality always represents and obliges the divine, and this even in non-Christian religious traditions. After exploring the value of hospitality in the backdrop of myths, symbols, literary motifs and a certain mental framework which more or less directly constitutes the common heritage of the Near East integral to the sacred books of the three monotheistic religions, we deal with the exegetical history of Gen 18 and a comparative view of the interpretation of the theophany at Mamre in the three abrahamic religions. Basing ourselves on this enquiry and extrapolating hospitality as a category we would open new avenues of research concerning certain sensitive subjects of contemporary theological reflection and, in conclusion, for a "pedagogy of intereligious dialogue"

Full textAbstract:
L'iconographie de l'hospitalité d’Abraham (gen. 18) est intimement liée à l'exégèse. Dès l'aube du christianisme cet épisode, comme toute la Bible, est commenté. Tout y est figuré de la vie du Christ. Cette démarche allégorique est, en partie, liée à la culture hellénistique des pères; elle sera suivie par le moyen âge, respect des anciens plus qu'incapacité d'une réflexion personnelle. Le XIIIe siècle se libèrera de l'héritage patristique tout en reconnaissant ce qu'il lui doit ; à la fin du XIIe siècle une nouvelle lecture s'impose, littérale. Le symbolisme trinitaire de gen. 18 est retenu par les pères mais la vraie vision de la trinité est perçue par Ambroise. Allégorie, symbole sont des termes confondus au moyen âge. En dehors de toute connotation trinitaire il y est ressenti une figure de l'annonciation, de l'incarnation, de l'eucharistie, de la résurrection. Les valeurs morales d’Abraham sont aussi magnifiées : accueil, foi - il ne doute pas qu'un fils lui sera donné - confiance en Dieu qui le fait intercéder pour Sodome. L'iconographie s'empare de toutes ces significations et de l'historicité du thème ; des bibles, livres liturgiques, la psychomachie de prudence, la cité de Dieu de saint Augustin sont un reflet du récit, de son symbolisme, des vertus d’Abraham dont la vie s'inscrit dans l'histoire du salut aux murs d'églises paléochrétiennes et romanes. La fidélité au texte est étudiée à travers les envoyés - semblables ou non - la présence de Sara, son attitude, la tente d’Abraham évoquée souvent par une architectureIconography of Abraham’s hospitality (gen. 18) is deeply connected to exegesis. As early as the beginning of Christianity, this episode, as all the bible, is annotated everything is about Christ’s life. This allegorical way of thinking is, in part, connected to the fathers' Hellenistic culture. It has been identical during the middle age, by respect of the traditions more than by impossibility of personal reflexion. XIIIth century will free him of this fathers' heritage but in recognizing what he owned to him. At the end of XIIth century, a new literal reading seems indispensable. The Trinitarian symbolism of gen. 18 , is kept by father, but the real vision of trinity is dicemed by Ambroise. Allegory and symbolism are confounded words during middle ages. Beside all Trinitarian connotations, we can feel a figure of annunciation, of incarnation, of the Eucharist, of the resurrection. Abraham's moral values are also glorified: hospitality, faith - he never doubts that he will have a son - trust in god who aiks into interfere for Sodom. Iconography takes possession of all these significations and of the historical part of the subject : bible, liturgical books, the psychomachie de prudence, the city of God from saint Augustin are reflects of the story, of his symbolism, of Abraham’s valor’s whose life is in engrave in the story of the salvation in the walls of paleo Christian and roman's churches. Fidelity to the text is learnt thought the messengers - alike or not - Sara’s presence, her attitude, Abraham’s tent very often evoqued by an architecture

Ce mémoire porte sur l’hospitalité qui est un des défis de l’immigrant. Il répond à la question suivante : Comment le récit du livre de Jonas à la lumière de la philoxenie d’Abraham en Genèse 18 peut-il informer les pratiques de l’hospitalité en milieu évangélique ? Pour répondre à cette question, la recherche a mis en évidence les actions et attitudes qui construisent la grille d’évaluation de la dynamique de l’hospitalité en Genèse 18. Par la suite cette grille a été utilisée pour analyser la dynamique de l’hospitalité dans le livre de Jonas. Yahvé envoie Jonas, membre du peuple élu, apporter un message aux Ninivites, un peuple méchant et ennemi d’Israël. Dans une perspective de théologie exclusive dans laquelle Jonas perçoit Yahvé comme appartenant uniquement aux israélites, il manifestera son inhospitalité à l’égard de la mission et mettra tout en oeuvre pour faire obstacle à la l’hospitalité que Yahvé offre aux Ninivites. Yahvé restera constant dans un dialogue avec Jonas en utilisant entre autres les éléments de la nature et l’accueil qu’il fait à la repentance des Ninivites pour se faire connaitre à Jonas. L’Église, qui est constituée des personnes étrangères à Dieu et qui ont été accueillies en Jésus-Christ, est appelée à vivre une constante hospitalité en interne pour être capable d’exprimer l’hospitalité aux non-croyants. L’immigration fournit aux églises locales au Québec, et à Montréal en particulier une vague de croyants. La plupart de ces croyants considèrent le processus de leur migration comme un élément de leur expérience de foi. Cette considération les conduit à être dans une attente de l’hospitalité dans les églises locales. Dans ce schéma, ils sont en retour appellés à accueillir la différence des accueillants pour une vie communautaire équilibrée. Cet accueil se veut bidirectionnel pour une mission globale de l’Église.

Full textAbstract:
The problem of African women's hospitality has not been well handled in most churches in Africa. Although many churches seem to attach great value to African women's hospitality, there are still a lot of situations related to African women's hospitality that have been dehumanising and oppressive to African women both in the church and in the society. Issues such as the HIV/AIDS pandemic, economic hardship and sexuality have
all affected African women's practice of hospitality. The fact that problems related with African women's hospitality surface within the church goes to show that this kind of hospitality needs to be re-examined by the Church if it has to be free and liberative to African women. Despite all these effects, African women themselves have valued and accepted hospitality as part of their calling in their service to God. The aim of this thesis is to discuss African women's hospitality from an African woman theologian's perspective. Writing as an African woman theologian, the researcher was
able to bring out some of the effects of African hospitality to African women. Apart from hospitality being an African way of life and a virtue that needs to be embraced by both African culture and Christianity, hospitality is also viewed as a' command from God to all the Jews and Christians. On the other hand it is also important to mention that hospitality is a gift from God in that there are people who are gifted in extending their acts of
hospitality to others. Hospitality as a concept, which has been practiced mainly by women in most African societies has impacted many dimensions of life especially in the Christian faith where African women's hospitality has been viewed as God's command to God's people. Although there is some literature produced on hospitality, the researcher noted with special interest that not much literature has been covered from the theological side on the issue of African women's hospitality and HIV/AIDS. The study was undertaken in the United Church of Zambia with the Mothers' Union
group of St. Margaret Church of Kitwe. Among many others, the study reviewed the need for enculturation and contextualization of the African culture and the gospel. Chapter one is the introduction to the study. This includes the background to and motivation for the study, statement of the problem, the methodology used to collect data and the literature review. Chapter two brings out the historical background of hospitality both from the Biblical and African concept. The chapter shows African women's practice
of hospitality in all these aspects and how their practises impacted the communities and people who lived at that time. Chapter three looks at different ways African women express their acts of hospitality. The effects of this expression of hospitality are also discussed. The other issues that have been covered are the response of African women theologians' to African women's practise of hospitality. Chapter four examines how HIV/AIDS has affected the practise of African women's hospitality and how these women who continue to offer hospitality under HIV/AIDS conditions cope with the risks involved in the practice. Chapter five analyses the research findings using cultural hermeneutics of Kanyoro 2000 as the frame of reference. Chapter six concludes African women's understanding of hospitality. This chapter states that African women's hospitality is a gift from God and women who are involved in this practice should be encouraged to do so. However, there is need for the church and
community to re-examine the practice and look out for oppressive structures that are destructive to the African women's practice of hospitality. The chapter has also called on the church to be supportive to African women in their practise of hospitality.Thesis (M.Th.)-University of KwaZulu-Natal, Pietermaritzburg, 2005.

Full textAbstract:
Under the new Vision 2030 national transformation plan, the kingdom of Saudi Arabia seeks to increase number of annual pilgrims from eight million to thirty million. If oil has certain limits, then pilgrimage is framed as lasting “forever.” But this exuberant claim of “forever” belies a more subtle transformation unfolding at the level of knowledge, technology, and hospitality as Mecca and its crowds are made and re-made into a resource for a national economy. This dissertation examines the Saudi state’s efforts to manage, and ultimately intensify and optimize Mecca’s pilgrimage through new sciences and technologies of crowd management, logistics, and secular hospitality.
I demonstrate how these new forms of knowledge production operate in tension with older and decidedly more Islamic ways of knowing, managing, and belonging in the holy city. Instead of approaching religious knowledge and secular knowledge as discrete spheres, my research explores their entanglements and aporias across a range of techno-political practices: navigation, hospitality, urban planning, systems thinking, crowd management, and optimization. Ultimately, I explore how in this moment of ritual intensity, the cosmopolitan logics of the holy city come to be blunted.

Full textAbstract:
This dissertation re-examines Christ's hospitality from the perspective of inculturation/contextualisation, which is a common trend in African Theology today. It starts on the premise that Christ is the ideal model of hospitality that African Christianity ought to draw some lessons from as we embark on a theology of reconstruction. In so doing, it has sought to trace the concept of hospitality from the ancient times to the present times thereby relating it with the contemporary issues. The work is divided into six chapters and a conclusion that serves as a seventh chapter. The Introduction chapter sets the argument, describing the background to and motivation of the research, the review of relevant literature, the research problem, the theoretical framework and the research methodology. Chapter two defines the concept of hospitality tracing its linguistic roots, its ancient interpretations and practices; the Old and New Testament version of hospitality and concludes the chapter by assessing the characteristics of hospitable places with regard to Christ's hospitality. Chapter Three which is a continuation of chapter two continues with the survey of hospitality from Christian monasticism to post-reformation period where Rev. John Wesley emerges as a great beacon of hospitality after the Industrial revolution that took place in Europe. Chapter four revisits the concept of hospitality in Africa from the ancient times to the present times. It cites the general features of African hospitality and examines its uniqueness by
comparing it with the Western hospitality. It also looks at the abuse of African hospitality through the ages citing some cases such as slavery, colonialism and neo-colonialism. The chapter is premised on the conviction that African hospitality is compatible with Christ's hospitality hence the need to harness it through inculturation. Chapter five examines the faces of Christ in African Christian hospitality. It is based on the premise that Christ is in each and every one of us when we extend love to one another; for he is in the faces of the suffering and all the afflicted peoples of Africa and beyond. In this chapter, Christ is examined as one who cares and is therefore concerned, thereby challenging us to seek Christ in our day today lives. He is thus examined as a liberator, a reconstructor, a healer, a guest, a host, and a unique ancestor. Chapter six is the climax of our study, which specifically examines Christ as a model worth imitating as we grapple with the concerns of the twenty first century. Christ is portrayed as a model in terms of liberation, reconstruction, family level, cultural level, and rural ministry. As an area that has not been exhaustively done in African Theology, the chapter, in some sections, allows the various contributors to give their interpretations on Christ thereby coming very close to chapter five where we were looking at the faces of Christ. A good example is Christ as the model of liberation where the contribution of African Women Theologians (otherwise called the Circle of Concerned African Women Theologians) is given prominence as a case in point where women in Africa, have to look at Christ as the model of liberation from patriarchal structures and as one who supersedes all genders. The chapter concludes by a passionate appeal that even if Africa may be walking through the valley of the shadow of death, we need not fear for Christ the ideal model in every sphere of life is with us. He will make us lie down in greener pastures, restore our souls, guide us in the paths of righteousness and lead us beside quite waters (Psalm 23). We must therefore seek to learn from him hence the caution, "my people are destroyed from lack of knowledge" (Hosea 4:6). The chapter therefore acts as a conclusion of the study in spite of the fact that we have chapter seven that concludes the whole study. Chapter seven concludes the study by an appeal to Africa of the twenty first century to swim into action and face the challenges such as sexism, tribalism, regionalism, HIV/Aids and corruption, with confidence knowing that the hospitable Christ is with us and will be there to guide us in our undertakings till the end of the age (Matthew 28: 1820).Thesis (M.Th.)-University of KwaZulu-Natal, Pietermaritzburg, 2003.

Full textAbstract:
Part I of the book focusses on three villages in the Municipality of Përmet: Bënjë, Kosinë and Leusë. Bënjë, which lies entirely within the "Bredhi i Hotovës - Dangëlli" National Park, has undergone anthropization processes since prehistoric times. Due to its landscape and architectural value, it was recognised in 2016 as a “historical centre” and as such has come under the protection of the National Institute for the Cultural Heritage. There is little information concerning the history of Kosinë. The inhabitants show a strong connection with the Byzantine Church of the Dormition of Mary, but regrettably, it was impossible to go back to the origins of the current settlement. The village of Leusë, instead, existed before 1812, the year in which the Church of the Dormition of Mary was built. Today, the image of the village is a consequence of the partial reconstruction occured after the severe damage suffered during World War II. In the first chapters, the importance of the intangible heritage is stressed. Përmet’s food heritage is well-known on a national scale for its typical products (spirits, fruit preserves, dairy, meat, honey and bakery products), which result from the favourable climatic conditions and the rich biodiversity of the area. The tradition of the Tosk iso-polyphony, the hospitality of Përmet inhabitants and their historical devotion to religion, knowledge and study emerge with great strength together with the craftsmanship traditions and the exceptional skills of the itinerant and seasonal master builders. In the following chapters, the multiple aspects of the tangible heritage are analysed. The landscape in Përmet includes a vast variety of habitats, which have preserved to a large extent their original qualities. It is deeply marked by the Vjosa River and other several minor watercourses that crisscross the territory. A special attention is given to the historical built heritage of the villages, and specifically to three architectural assets (all listed as category I Cultural Monuments): the Katiu Bridge in Bënjë (an Ottoman bridge of the 18th century), the Church of the Dormition of Mary in Leusë (a Post-Byzantine building of the 19th century), and the Church of the Dormition of Mary in Kosinë (a Byzantine building of the end of the 12th century). For each of the aforementioned issues, the theoretical and historical analysis are closely bound to an evaluation of those features of the cultural heritage that could be enhanced to guarantee a sustainable tourism development of the area. Each chapter ends with a consistent set of specific intervention strategies. They are substantive tools for action aimed at public and private local actors.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter looks at critical debates on religious hospitality-as-translation in contemporary political philosophy—notably in critical theory and Jürgen Habermas. Interestingly, Jürgen Habermas, Jacques Derrida, and Joseph Ratzinger all agree with Ricoeur on the central need for “hospitality” in our modern political discourse. While they speak from different perspectives—Habermas, secular; Derrida, Messianic; Ratzinger, Catholic—they all concur that hospitality offers a radical alternative, however complicated, to the infamous friend-enemy opposition made intellectually current by Samuel Huntington after 9/11. After analysing key aspects of these debates, the chapter ends by addressing the difficulties that arise in regard to Habermas’s model of secular hospitality to religion.

Full textAbstract:
Cities in the Southeastern United States that are experiencing population growth offer a counter-narrative to media reports of religious disaffiliation. Against the backdrop of data sets and broad surveys, a glimpse into the challenges and successes of individual faith community leaders in a small but growing Southern city provides a more hopeful perspective. While some aspects of the disaffiliation story, particularly millennial disengagement, mirror national trends, in parts of the coastal Southeast, religious belief and practice are flourishing relative to the rest of the country. Combining extensive interviews of several local faith community leaders with the voices of millennials grappling with their faith, the author reflects upon cultural and parental factors in religious decline, identifies a few signs of hope, and suggests ways that existing communities of faith might draw in those of all ages who are spiritual seekers, through listening responsively, thinking creatively about ways to reach out, and offering radical hospitality.

Full textAbstract:
Many Aspects of Different Cultures can help to throw light on their differing identities—language, architecture, religion, and many other things, such as the ‘range of landscapes, ways of thought, racial groups, roof-tops and cheeses’. In fact, almost anything. A particular category is provided by the institutions people observe, a category which might embrace an enormous range of different things, from burial practices to legal systems, or from different calendars to different systems of weights and measures. The link between coins, weights, and measures was clear to the Greeks and Romans, and that coins could be regarded as an expression of some at least of the values characteristic of a particular society is evident from an anecdote reported by Pliny as taking place in the reign of Claudius. He relates how a Roman was forced by a storm to Sri Lanka (ancient Taprobane), and how he told the local king about Rome: A freedman of Annius Plocamus, who had brought the tax collection for the Red Sea from the Treasury, was sailing round Arabia. He was carried along by winds from the north past Carmania and, on the fifteenth day, made harbour at Hippuros in the island; and in consequence of the kind hospitality of the king he learned the local language thoroughly over a period of six months, and afterwards in reply to his questions described the Romans and Caesar. In what he heard the king got a remarkably good idea of their honesty, because among the captured money there were denarii which were of equal weight, even though their various types indicated that they were issued by several persons. I want to apply this approach to the Roman world, and use coins in a way that may throw light on some of the ways that Romans regarded themselves, having a special look at the differences between the western and eastern parts of the empire. I want to suggest that we can use this sort of approach to help explain the fundamental change that took place in the currency of the Iberian peninsula, Gaul, Italy, Sicily, and Africa in the first century AD—how people there stopped using locally made coins and started to use coins imported from Rome, coins which might otherwise have been regarded in some sense as almost ‘foreign’.
