The Deterioration of Glass Beads on Ethnographic Objects
The Deterioration Of Glass Beads On Ethnographic Objects, By Sandra Lougheed And Jane Shaw (1985, 7:10-12)
Progressive Women and English Theology in the Early Twentieth Century
In the early twentieth century, progressive women wrote and lived an outward-looking theology based on the incarnation. Groups and communities such as the Church League for Women’s Suffrage, Maude Royden’s Guildhouse worshipping community and Muriel Lester’s settlement house, Kingsley Hall, appealed to a God of love and justice in order to work for a more equal society, and for peace. The issues that they addressed have resonances today: shifting…

It then examines how the society appealed to its (white) members in the empire in t…

Varieties of mystical experience in William James and other moderns
In 1902, William James gave his Gifford Lectures in Edinburgh, entitled The Varieties of Religious Experience, in which he claimed that such experience was a part of human nature, and was necessarily the foundation of all institutional religion. His work has often been singled out as leading to an increasingly private and individualistic understanding of religion, but this paper places his work in a broader movement of the early twentieth century…
