Friendship and Spiritual Learning: Seedbed for Synodality
In the literature about learning in general and also with regard to faith learning, the experience and practice of friendship has been neglected. In the early years of the church, and at various other times, social networks of Christians preserved and handed on the life of faith without the benefit of formal educational institutions or strong ecclesial structures. This article explores the potential of friendship to contribute to the kind of spir…
Hugh of St. Victor: Medieval Wisdom for Modern Educators
Using Hugh of St. Victor (1096–1141) as an example, the article outlines key features of medieval educational assumptions and practices that can be drawn upon to challenge and offer an alternative to the ethos and priorities in universities today. Hugh’s writings are analysed with a view to demonstrating how an approach to education that is illuminated by religious faith has the resources to provide a more holistic route to higher learning than i…
Transcending the Technocratic Mentality through the Humanities
Catholic education has a long tradition of engagement with the liberal arts and especially the humanities. The place of the humanities today in the curriculum is under threat for several reasons, one being the predominance of the technocratic mentality. This paper revisits (in three steps) the contested issue of the role of the humanities in education. First, I review arguments about the role of the humanities within education. Second, some of th…
Catholics, Culture and the Renewal of Christian Humanism
If Catholic educators are to equip students to engage with contemporary culture in a way that is credible and winsome, they need first, to be able to draw upon the living tradition of their faith appreciatively, critically and creatively, and second, to articulate a renewed form of Christian humanism. This paper addresses the second of these prerequisites by taking two steps towards the development of a Christian humanism for our times. First, I …
Podcasting in Transition: Formalization and Its Discontents
Podcasting has thrived since its popularization in 2004 as a bastion for amateur media production. Over the past ten years, however, entrepreneurs and legacy media companies have rapidly expanded their interests in podcasting, bringing with them professional standards and the logics of capital. Breakout hits such as 2014’s Serial (with nearly 40 million downloads) and This American Life have demonstrated to both programmers and advertisers the po…
Religious Speech in the Public Square
I examine the reasons often given for restricting religious language to the private domain. Despite acknowledging their force, I argue that suppressing religious speech in public conversations is inherently dangerous, suggesting that such a policy undermines mutual trust and confidence, is corrosive of individual integrity and that such marginalization of religious language deprives social discussions of vital resources. Finally I propose a set o…
Making Sense of Factor Analysis
The portraits of Samuel Carnell: The representation of Ngāti Kahungunu in colonial photography
By 1870 the Māori had been in regular contact with Europeans for a hundred years. For thirty years they had weathered a massive population movement out of Europe that had rewritten the demography of New Zealand. During the 1860s the Māori had been engaged in a series of major wars with the British Crown. These finally tipped the balance of power in the islands in favour of the colonists. This period had witnessed a massive dislocation of Maori li…
