Matthew K. Shannon. Mission Manifest American Evangelicals and Iran in the Twentieth Century
In Mission Manifest: American Evangelicals and Iran in the Twentieth Century, Matthew K. Shannon provides a history of the Presbyterian Mission in Tehran, with a special focus on the period between the end of World War Two and the closure of the mission in 1965. As much as this book is a contribution to the thriving field of western missions to the Middle East, this book offers a valuable addition to the study of US-Iranian relations under the Pa…
The Syriac Orphanage and School in Beirut
Despite a growing interest in Middle Eastern Christianity, an imbalance persists in scholarly understanding of individual Christian communities. The Syriac Orthodox – a non-Catholic Oriental Orthodox community – are one such understudied group. After experiencing massacres during World War I, they resettled in Lebanon, Syria, Iraq and Palestine, which were then newly established nation-states. This article is concerned with the Syriac school in B…
When Ephrem Meets the Maya
Article When Ephrem Meets the Maya: Defining and Adapting the Syriac Orthodox Tradition in Guatemala was published on January 1, 2020 in the journal Hugoye: Journal of Syriac Studies (volume 23, issue 1)
The emergence of a Syriac Orthodox Mayan Church in Guatemala
From ‘Polytheists’ to ‘Partners in the Nation’
In the aftermath of the Arab Spring, Islamist and Salafi organizations, some of them with a violent past, emerged as political actors and displayed a consistent effort to appear as serious and inclusive political contenders. This article studies the attitudes of actors such as the Salafi Nur Party and al-Gamāʿa al-Islāmiyya towards Coptic Egyptians in the post-revolutionary phase (2011–2013). It offers a perspective on how these actors navigated …
The Orthodox Issue in Jordan
Scholarship on Christians in the Middle East has paid little attention to the role the Christian laity has played in defining and maintaining Christian identity and community boundaries. The so-called Orthodox issue (al-qaḍya al-urthudhuksiyya in Arabic) enhances our understanding of this role. It is an ongoing conflict within the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate of Jerusalem between the church leadership of Greek extraction and the Arab – usually low…
‘Lebanon is more than a nation, more than a country. It is a message.’ Lebanon as a model of Christian–Muslim relations
Defining Lebanon as a model of Christian–Muslim relations seems surprising given its history of sectarian violence. This paper, however, investigates how, in recent years, key religious and political actors (the churches, official Islamic institutions, political parties, Hezbollah, Islamist movements) have attempted to establish Lebanon as a model for both Christian–Muslim relations and the Christian presence in the Middle-East. A historical and …
Die Kopten und der Arabische Frühling
The participation of young Copts in the Arab Spring in January 2011 was all the more surprising given the widespread image of a community facing a number of discriminations and being somewhat under siege. This article seeks to highlight the dynamics of a community that had begun to emancipate itself from church tutelage in the context of growing opposition to the regime of Ḥusnī Mubārak prior to 2011. In particular, it will take the narrative of …
