Kijken met een heroïsch en een monastiek oog Betrokkenheid en distantie bij het lezen van oude Ierse teksten
More Less1Dit artikel is een bewerking van een lezing gehouden tijdens de Vooijaarsconferentie van NGG en NOSTER. Met dank aan Proinsias Mac Cana voor de geleverde (bibliografische) informatie en aan Bart Jaski voor zijn commentaar op dit artikel. De werkvertalingen in dit artikel zijn van mij.
AbstractSome early medieval Irish heroic texts give the impression that they stem from the pre-Christian past, whereas the production of them took place in Christian monasteries and their environment. These texts are the subject of the so-called ‘anti-nativist’ debate, in which the opinion that the texts represent uninfluenced, native lore, is passionately disputed. The emphasis is laid instead upon external influences, from Classical and Christian culture. It is posited here that different voices can be detected by reading the texts ‘with a heroic eye and a monastic eye’. To illustrate this, a sword ritual and descriptions of supernatural beings are analysed.

Jacques Derrida en de messianiteit
1Dit artikel is een bewerkte versie van een lezing gehouden voor de Nederlandse Vereniging voor Godsdienstwijsbegeerte.
By Victor KalAbstractThe first aim of this article is to present the systematic scheme to be found in Derrida’s more recent work. Second it is shown that Derrida’s position is rather traditional, and not at all to be qualified as ‘nihilism’, or as ‘of no relevance to ethics’. Third a problem is raised concerning Derrida’s ‘universalism’. It is shown that his position is not altogether consistent on this point. The article concludes with an argument for some kind of religious ‘particularism’, implying that the ‘historical revelations’ Derrida tends to discard from the philosophical scene get, as such, philosophical importance.

Bekeringsverhalen van vrouwen uit de charismatischevangelische beweging Een psychologische benadering
More Less1Dit artikel is een bewerking van het op 29 augustus 1997 te Amsterdam gehouden openbaar college ter gelegenheid van de opening van het academisch jaar 1997-1998 aan de Theologische Faculteit van de Universiteit van Amsterdam.
AbstractThis article gives an example of a narrative approach to the study of conversion. Within a narrative psychology of religion, conversion can be understood as a self-narrative that is told as a coherent life story by adopting the communicative model of the ritual of conversion. According to Stromberg (1993), the conversion story allows the converts a kind of self-transformation by reframing their conflicts in the terms of a certain religious language. By analysing self-narratives of women who joined a charismatic women’s group (AGLOW), examples of the religious structure of a life story and of the possibilities of self-transformation are given.
