Theologies of the Eucharist, the Body and Post-Coloniality
In Solidarity with Whom? Questioning Missional Societies’ Engagement with Women
This article questions how far, in the process of the decolonisation of mission, have women been adequately represented in mission organisations. Historically, the mission field could be a place of empowerment for some women and the need for women on missional and ecumenical boards was highlighted from the 1970s into the World Council of Churches (WCC)’s Ecumenical Decade of Churches in Solidarity with Women, 1988 to 1998. Yet today, organisation…
Accountability and Economic Witness in the Iona Community
This article examines the economic witness of the Iona Community, following an earlier analysis from academics in the field of accounting. I argue that the Economic Witness needs to be read with regard to who was not able to participate – laypeople and women to understand its development. Further, I outline how the economic witness has a liberative effect that reaches beyond the members of the Community through its rooting in the larger five-fold…
The Iona Community and the ecumenical movement: External influences and internal changes
This article teases out the relationship between the Iona Community (founded 1938) and the ecumenical movement (both nationally – Scotland and the UK – and internationally), and the steps the Community took to enable itself internally to be more ecumenical. The first part of the article reviews the original brief of the Community – a missional ‘brotherhood’ that would work for the Church of Scotland’s Church Extension Scheme, using the base of th…
Interrogating whiteness through the lens of class in Britain: Empire, entitlement and exceptionalism
This article examines ‘whiteness’ from the lens of class in British society. The method used is autoethnography, where the author feels ‘between’ two classes yet not firmly situated in either, allowing interrogation of the church community in the working-class area she grew up. The purpose of this paper is twofold: the first objective is to demonstrate the complexity of the British ‘working-class’ classification and argue that the church can act …
Promoting Antiracist Mental Health Crisis Responses
Clinicians cannot always directly or effectively engage patients experiencing mental health crises. This article considers the common practice of relying upon law enforcement personnel to facilitate mental health checks and considers its implications for Black patients. An antiracist approach to decriminalizing acute exacerbations of mental illness requires clinicians' engagement in educating, training, and policymaking. This article recommends s…
Passage, passing et passeur: Bertrandon de la Broquière et son Voyage d’Outremer
Diplomates. Écuyers. Chevaliers. Pèlerins. Espions. Sous l’égide des puissants ducs de Bourgogne, les voyageurs du XVe siècle adoptaient des identités et des rôles nébuleux et fluides. Dans son Voyage d’Outremer, Bertrandon de la Broquière exploite cette fluidité pendant son voyage en Orient. Son récit met en évidence la possibilité d’un passage géographique mais aussi interculturel. Cet article examine comment le voyageur se fraye un chemin à tr…
Performing the Self, Performing the Other: Gender and racial identity construction in the Nanteuil Cycle
This article focuses on the Old French Nanteuil Cycle of chansons de geste, investigating the nature of medieval identity and its connection to gender, race and religion. The Nanteuil Cycle repeatedly uses disguise as a means of crossing gender boundaries, which allows the repositioning of identity and simultaneously reveals the arbitrariness of cultural categorisation. Although cross-dressing heroines abound in medieval literature, the fourteent…
