OPENING ADDRESS (A5)Saturday, November 23, Noon-l:00 p.m. B-212SOpenings and ClosingsJames B. Wiggins, Syracuse University

The contribution ofJames B. Wiggins to the field of the study of religion, like hisexecuting of the directorship of the American Academy of Religion during the pastnine years, is measurable in terms of length and breadth. Already in his doctoraldissertation at Drew University in the early 'sixties, Wiggins lengthened andbroadened the Methodist theological imagination by writing on that church'shistory, not in terms of the piety of Wesley, but rather in terms of the poetry ofFletcher, thereby engaging the study of religion at the interface of historiographyand poetics. This radical reading, which resulted from Wiggins' refusal to splitpoetry from history, not unlike the strategies of Hayden White and Norman O.Brown, shaped the two textbooks on the history of Christianity that he has written,first with Bruce Burke and later with Robert Ellwood. Such cultured reimaginingand re-thinking of historical studies in the field of religion, also informed andtransformed Wiggins' early stewardship of the graduate program in religion atSyracuse University, as it did his innovative explorations at the edges of narrativetheory in religion, exemplified by his well-known collection of essays, Religion and

Story, and, more recently, by his "Introduction" to The Daemonic Imagination, edited by Robert Detweiler and William Doty. In suchways, James Wiggins has not only contributed at the lengths and breadths of the field of religion in the 'eighties, but he has also helpedto reimagine the field as having precisely to do with the lengthening and broadening of perspectives upon history and life.

PLENARY ADDRESS (A41)Saturday, November 23, 8:00 p.m. B-212 SBody and Soul: Reflections on a Poetics of GenderChristine Downing, San Diego State University

Christine Downing's distinctive style of speaking, teaching and writing hasoffered all interested in the study of religion an opportunity to consider and learnfrom reflecting on the goddess in mythology and from studies on women andreligion. Her emphasis on the importance of the existential claims ofscholarship hascharacterized her career and has widely influenced critical assumptions in researchand interpretation at the nexus of religion, psychology and mythology. Sincereceiving her Ph.D. from Drew University in 1966, she has been a highly productiveteacher-scholar, contributing to the development of the study of religion ininterdisciplinary ways. She taught at Rutgers and Temple, before joining thefaculties of the department of religion at San Diego State University and theCalifornia School of Professional Psychology/San Diego. Dr. Downing has authoredor edited eight books, the most recent (available this winter) entitled Women'sMysteries. She has lectured widely, served on numerous editorial boards, and hasprovided leadership in a number of organizations, serving as president of the AARin 1974.

PLENARY ADDRESS (A96)Sunday, November 24, 8:00 p.m. B-213

Towards a Religious Understanding of ReligionJohn Harwood Hick, Claremont Graduate School

For more than thirty years, John Hick has been widely recognized as one of theworld's foremost philosophers of religion. No other philosopher has been asinfluential in shaping the contemporary discussion of philosophical issues inreligion. His earlier comprehensive studies of two central problems in the philoso¬phy of religion, viz., the problem of evil and the possible survival of death, becamemodels for all other philosophers working in the analytic tradition. His long¬standing interest in religious faith and truth claims across the various religioustraditions culminated in An Interpretation of Religion. This book won for John Hickthe 1991 GrawemeyerAward in Religion, as the most significant new thinking in thefield of religion during the past five years. Dr. Hick is Danforth Professor,Department of Religion, and Director, James A. Blaisdell Programs in WorldReligions and Cultures, at Claremont Graduate School.

WARS OF RELIGION: PRESENTAND FORTHCOMING (A138)

Monday, 1:00-3:30 p.m., B-212 S

During the recent gulf War, Saddam Hussein appealed tothe Muslim masses in Egypt, Saudi Arabia and Syria to join in ajihad, a Holy War, against the West. His attempt failed.Nevertheless, it was consistent with the growing tendency ofmodern political conflicts to assume a religious character.Because religious conflict often involves contradictory, non-negotiable claims, religious warfare threatens to be the mostdangerous and the least amenable to settlement throughcompromise solutions. A distinguished panel of scholars,organized by Richard Rubenstein, explores several conflicts thathave led or might lead to open warfare, including the elementsof religious conflict in the trade competition between Japan andthe United States.

THEOLOGICAL RENEWAL IN THE USSR (A155)

Monday, 3:45-6:15 p.m., B-206 WThis forum will report to the AAR on the renewal of

ToJim WigginsA Word of grannm, A World of Praise

At this Annual Meeting, which marks the conclusionofJim Wiggins' nine years as Executive Director,we may truly celebrate that our organization has

been blessed with effective and extraordinary leadership dur¬ing a time when these virtues have been in short supply. Jim'sperformance in office has been nothing less than remarkable.During his tenure, the AAR has seen many changes, a growthin numbers that hints at the explosion of new fields of in¬quiry, of the range of membership concerns, and of newdiversity of interests within the Academy, to which he and hisoffice have responded with leadership and imagination.

Under Jim's articulate leadership, the AAR has adapteditself thoughtfully to changes and initiated some of its own.The structure of the Board and its committees has been sig¬nificantly reorganized to better reflect the growing edges andconcerns of the profession. The new committee structureshave resulted in new grant programs, projects and publica¬tions in the fields of teaching and public education, seriousinvestigation of the implications of new technologies forscholarship, and formal attention to the status of women inthe profession. The Board is also structured to be representa¬tive of regional (and hence grass-roots) concerns.

The extremely able support ofJim, Barbara Yoshioka (Ex¬ecutive Associate) and Janet Mallan (Administrative Assistant)have energized committees, program unit chairs, and othergroups, kept them focussed on their mandates, and broughtto fruition projects that would have foundered without staffsupport.

During his tenure, the fiscal health of the organization hasimproved substantially. Jim and Barbara led in creating adevelopment plan and in raising over $1 million since 1984for special projects and services. Their management has trans¬formed an inherited deficit into a reserve for lean times and

emergencies. Their work on the capital campaign promises tobuild a solid foundation for the health and future of the orga¬nization.

We owe a large debt of gratitude to Jim Wiggins, to Bar¬bara Yoshioka and to Janet Mallan, for their extraordinaryservice and outstanding achievements. On behalf of the Boardof Directors and the membership, I extend to them our con¬gratulations on a job well done!

Judith A. Berling, PresidentAmerican Academy of Religion

I am honored to join the Trustees and Staff of ScholarsPress and our colleagues in the AAR and the SBL inexpressing deep appreciation to Jim Wiggins. The nature

of the SP consortium is such that great attention and dedica¬tion to collaborative effort is required of its leaders. Fiduciaryresponsibility for the Press must be balanced with service tosponsors. Jim Wiggins has navigated these waters with sensi¬tivity and skill. Never shrinking from the challenge, he haspointed us to our mission, but not without a consummatesense of humor. As Executive Director of the American Acad¬emy of Religion, Jim began service on the Board of Trusteesduring the revitalization of the Press beginning in the early1980s. He chaired the Board during a period of significantgrowth beginning in 1984 and contributed greatly to thedevelopment and stability of the Press. We are grateful for theunselfish service that he has invested in the unique organiza¬tion of which we are a part. Thank you Jim for your leader¬ship, your wise counsel, your friendship, and the pleasure ofa fruitful working relationship.

Harry W. Gilmer, DirectorScholars Press

On behalf of the Society of Biblical Literature, I thankyou, Jim, for your leadership in the American Acad¬emy of Religion and in Scholars Press. Your leader¬

ship has contributed to the strengthening of both. The Societyhas also been a beneficiary of your leadership, because of itsparticipation in the Press and its partnership with the Acad¬emy.

During your administration, new joint ventures of theAcademy and the Society were implemented—job placementservices, Religious Studies News, Critical Review and the Ven¬tures series. And the Annual Meeting has grown in size andquality. The AAR took the lead in, and the SBL cosponsored,two studies leading to a better understanding of issues relatedto the news media and the academic study of religion, and toa preliminary understanding of the present state of theologi¬cal and religious studies and of their futures. These are sig¬nificant achievements, for which you and many colleaguesdeserve the thanks of the Academy and the Society.

PRESENTATION OF THE SBL CHALLENGE CAMPAIGN (S47)

While the Society made significant advances in the last two decades in its research andpublication program, we have seen dwindling external sources of research grants. And,precisely because of the growth of the Society's publication program, the burdens onvolunteer editors have increased, and are likely to continue increasing. But the Society'scurrent resources are not sufficient to support much needed editorial assistance.

In the last decade, the Society's engagement in international dialogue has significantlyexpanded. At the same time, sources of travel grants for U.S. scholars have dramaticallyshrunk, and there still are virtually no sources of support for scholars from Africa, Asia,"Eastern Europe," and Latin America.

The record of sales of the Harper's Bible Dictionary and the Harper's Bible Commentarydemonstrates the success of the Society's outreach to the general public. These efforts mustbe continued and expanded by, for example, inaugurating public lecture series. Support forsuch new ventures must be sought beyond the Society's own operating funds.

Major steps must be taken toward recruiting into academic biblical studies more womenand persons from racial-ethnic groups historically, and currently, underrepresented in theSBL. The Society is in a good position to take initiatives in this area, but partnerships mustbe built with educational institutions willing to make a commitment to effective, long-rangerecruitment programs. Clearly the Society's resources must be expanded to support theinitiatives that it can and should take.

Recognizing that improvements in these areas are essential to the enhanced vitality ofbiblical scholarship sponsored by the Society in the decades ahead, and that the SBL has anopportunity in the 1990s to build on the achievements it has made in the last two decades,in 1989 and 1990 the SBL Council and members in attendance at the Annual Business

Meeting approved plans for a major capital funds campaign.Details of this campaign, including announcements about the Society's application to the

National Endowment for the Humanities for a major challenge grant and about fund raisingefforts to date, will be presented at a special session immediately following the PresidentialAddress. Helmut Koester (Harvard Divinity School), the Society's president and chair of theCampaign Committee, will preside.

The AARreceived an NEH challenge grant in support of these programsand now seeks to meet the challenge of raising over $600,000 inmatching funds. The Academy is deeply grateful to memberswho are helping with this challenge and to foundations that havenow contributed over two-thirds of the goal. Among itsdevelopment initiatives in the field of religion, the AAR is servingas lead sponsor for a pilot study of religious and theologicalstudies in American higher education and is planning aconference and two publications on the inclusion of the academicstudy of religion in secondary schools.

AAR EXECUTIVE OFFICE

james B. wiggins, executive directorBarbara S. Yoshioka, executive Associate

Janet M. Mallan, Administrative Assistant

Over the last nine years I have let you know of the many ways in which those holding staffpositionsin the office of the AAR serve you and all the members and groups with which the AAR has professionalconnections. I have indicated, for instance, that Janet Mallan's administrative skills enable the officeto operate efficiently. Her work with staff at Scholars Press on financial records, annual meetings andprogram books, travel and meeting arrangements has ensured the smooth functioning of AARactivities. Her work with program unit chairs has led to a high level of cooperation and quality inpreparing program materials. She represents the AAR to members, vendors, guests and the public atlarge with an intelligence and professional demeanor we all admire. Amid a ceaseless flow ofcorrespondence and myriad interruptions, she created that splendid achievement—a literate operationsmanual, while making you glad you called and us glad we work with her.

I have often tried to enumerate the tasks, projects and programs that engage Barbara Yoshioka's timeand attention in behalf of the AAR. She wrote the challenge grant application that won the AAR anaward from the NEH, which launched the current capital campaign for $850,000. She manages theAAR research grants program with the Committee on Research and Scholarship. She and theCommittee on Education and the Study of Religion have developed the proposals for a conference andpublications on the study of religion in secondary schools. Her work with the Committee on Regionsresulted in new data and other materials for use by regional groups. Her attendance at regional meetingshas helped create a new level ofcommunication and exchange among the regions and with the nationalorganization. She has had a hand in developing AAR's office computerization, press relations, RSNfeatures, annual meeting preparations, reports to the Board of Directors, etc. Though she maysometimes be impatient in the face of bureaucratic quagmires impeding the Academy's pursuit ofexcellence, her work has advanced this pursuit.

Each of us works with Scholars Press personnel on matters ranging from annual meetingmanagement, to publications, membership, accounting and governance. Harry Gilmer, uncommonDirector, and the staff of the Press contribute to a high level of cooperation and respect between thetwo organizations. We also work with the staff and Executive Director David Lull of the Society ofBiblical Literature, through whom so many joint undertakings have matured.

AsJanet, Barbara and I take leave of the AAR this year, we want especially to thank all the volunteerswith whom we have been privileged to work during these nine years. To the officers, Board ofDirectors,editors, authors, independent scholars, committee chairs and members, program unit chairs andparticipants, the institutions that support individual scholars and Academy functions, colleagues,friends and donors, we express our warmest thanks and appreciation.

Program Unit Proposalsfor the American Academy of ReligionThe AAR accepts program unit proposals from any of its

members. The proposals are evaluated by the Program Com¬mittee and approved or rejected by that body. In response tomany requests for guidance in preparing proposals receivedin the national office, the statement below is provided.

So You Want to Establish a New ProgramUnit for the AAR?

These are four authorized types of program units: sections,groups, seminars and consultations. Each exists for specificpurposes and differs from the other three.SECTIONS: These units are the most inclusive type of pro¬gram unit. They are aimed at reflecting the major, continuingareas of academic interest of the members of the Academy.They address the continuing agenda imposed by the varioussub-fields in the field of the study of religion. These unitscarry the greatest presumption of programmatic continuation,once they are established. Because these are allotted the mostsessions and time at an annual meeting and because the ar¬rangements and responsibilities are the most inclusive, lead¬ership in a section requires a substantial commitment. TheProgram Committee screens all petitions to establish new sec¬tions with great care, and it rigorously reviews each section asit approaches the conclusion of its term.

GROUPS: These units are established to encourage the explo¬ration of an emergent area of study or methodology, to culti¬vate the relation between the study of religion and a cognatediscipline, or to pursue a long-range and broad researchproject. More focused than SECTIONS and less restricted inparticipation than SEMINARS, GROUPS are expected tomaintain some communication with their members betweenannual meetings and to experiment with the format of ses¬sions at the Annual Meeting. A chief characteristic of a meet¬ing of a GROUP shall be that it is a working session and thatit shall be obviously connected with preceding and subse¬quent sessions through the foci of such sessions.SEMINARS: These units are established to permit a limitednumber of participants to engage in well defined researchtopics or projects. They are expected to eventuate inpublication(s). They have a strictly limited duration (nevermore than five years) and are limited initially to no more thantwenty (20) participants who agree to continue actively thework of the seminar between Annual Meetings through corre¬spondence, exchange of papers, bibliographies and occasionalmeetings. The session at the Annual Meeting allocated to aseminar shall be devoted to consideration of previously dis¬tributed papers and no new papers shall be presented at thissession.

CONSULTATIONS: These units are decidedly exploratoryopportunities to test the degree and breadth of interest amongmembers of the Academy in areas and topics of academic in¬terest not then included in the concerns of existing SEC¬TIONS, GROUPS or SEMINARS. This is the most frequentlyutilized initial form of a program unit en route to establishinga longer-term unit. The session at an Annual Meeting allo¬cated to a CONSULTATION is open to all interested regis¬trants at an Annual Meeting. A consultation may be renewedfor a second year upon the recommendation of the chairper¬son of the CONSULTATION, with the concurrence of theProgram Committee. The experience of a CONSULTATIONmay be the basis for subsequently authorizing a SECTION, aGROUP or a SEMINAR. Rarely will the Program Committeeauthorize the establishment of one of the other types of unitswithout the evidence provided by two successful years of thework of a CONSULTATION.

With these distinctions in mind, anyone petitioning to es¬tablish a new program unit must submit the following infor¬mation to the office of the Executive Director of the AAR wellin advance of the regular meeting of the Program Committee,which usually occurs within two weeks after the annual meeting.Proposals received after December 1 each year cannot be con¬sidered.

Proposals to establish a new program unit should include:1. Type and name of proposed unit.2. Projection of the themes or topics that would be in¬

cluded in the first year of the unit's existence.3. If a SEMINAR is proposed, include a projection of the

publication aspirations of the unit and a schedule ofsuch publication plans.

4. If a GROUP or a SEMINAR is proposed, include a list ofthe names of members who are committed to participa¬tion therein.

5. Include a rationale statement that argues for the impor¬tance of the subject to be addressed by the unit.

6. Include the names of an appropriate number of personswho are willing to accept leadership responsibilities forthe unit as members of its steering committee. It is as¬sumed that, except in rare circumstances, the person(s)submitting the petition are thereby indicating a willing¬ness to be designated as the Chairperson(s) of the newunit.

7. Twelve (12) copies of these materials must be submit¬ted. The mailing address is American Academy of Reli¬gion, 874 Clifton Court Circle, Atlanta, GA 30329-4037.

In preparing the petition members should be aware thatthe Program Committee will evaluate proposals in light of thefollowing statement:

The American Academy of Religion is committed to a policyand practice of including women, minority and younger membersin the activities of the Academy in as many ways as possible. InAnnual Meeting programming this commitment will be carried outto the degree that each unit works to accomplish it. Thus, the cadreof unit chairpersons, the unit steering committee and the partici¬pants in the sessions will provide the testing arenas for evaluatingour success in adhering to this commitment. The Program Com¬mittee will include attention to this policy and practice in evaluat¬ing proposals for starting or continuing program units.

So You Want to Publish inan AAR Series?

Over 150 titles have appeared through the AAR publishingprogram since it was established in 1974. The great majorityof these are still in print and available to scholars today. TheAAR has published the works of more than 130 authors, eachselected through careful evaluation by reviewers who contrib¬ute their services to this program.

Scholarly publishing for a highly select audience is pos¬sible and is financially viable due to the AAR's participation inScholars Press, a consortium of sponsors of publication pro¬grams. Beginning fifteen years ago with a vision of affordablepublishing by and for scholars, a few manuscripts, and a littlefunding at the University of Montana, Scholars Press today isa professional and efficient operation (owning its own build¬ing) located on the campus of Emory University, and with adistribution network in North America, England and Europe.

Working together, sponsors achieve economies of scale,with Scholars Press staff negotiating volume discounts, mar¬keting for the consortium, and arranging for printing, bindingand distribution of all sponsors' publications. Furthereconomy is achieved through editing services volunteered bymembers of the AAR for each of its series. The following edi¬tors are in office:

Spotlight on Teaching:A New AAR Publication

The creation of a publication on teaching is theAAR's newest formal initiative to highlight teachingin the academic study of religion. Having begunmost recently with sustained attention to the pro¬gram unit on Academic Teaching and the Study ofReligion, several special sessions at annual meetingson teaching about religions in the public schools,sustained work on a proposed conference, book andpublic policy document about teaching religion inpublic schools, and recently formed committees,task forces and teaching development projects spon¬sored by several AAR Regions, the time is right for apublication focussing on the issues and challenges ofteaching religion.

In approving the new Spotlight on Teaching theBoard of Directors unanimously endorsed the follow¬ing declaration, offered by the Committee on Educa¬tion and the Study of Religion:

In initiating Spotlight on Teaching as an occasionalpublication to be distributed in Religious Studies Newsthe American Academy of Religion is affirming itsbelief that skillful teaching is an important compo¬nent of academic productivity. For most members ofthe Academy, scholarly activities are pursued in thecontext of colleges, universities, and seminaries,whose missions include the nurture of a teachinglearning community. In this context, research andteaching obligations are intertwined. Excellent re¬search is enhanced in the interaction of students andteachers; and excellent teaching involves commit¬ment to the highest standards of scholarship. InSpotlight on Teaching the Academy is creating a ve¬hicle for the exchange of ideas and the sharing ofopinions about teaching within the field of religiousstudies. Our hope is that this vehicle will enhancethe visibility of the Academy's commitment to teach¬ing, and that will contribute to the improvement ofteaching activities within the Academy's member¬ship.

THE SOCIETY OF BIBLICALLITERATURE

The Society ofBiblical Literature, founded in 1880, is oneof the oldest learned societies in the U.S. and has a member¬ship of over 5,000. Its purpose is to stimulate the criticalinvestigation ofbiblical literature, together with other relatedliterature, by the exchange of scholarly research both inpublished form and in public forum. The SBL endeavors tosupport those disciplines and subdisciplines pertinent to theillumination of the literatures and religions of the ancientNear Eastern and Mediterranean regions, such as the study ofancient languages, textual criticism, history, and archaeology.

Publications of the SBL include works for the specialistand non-specialist, providing opportunities for scholars tomake their research available to others. Among the publica¬tions of the SBL are two journals, the Journal of BiblicalLiterature and Semeia, and more than a dozen monographseries. In cooperation with Harper & Row (now HarperCol¬lins), the SBL is seeking to communicate with non-specialiststhrough such works as the Harper's Bible Dictionary, theHarper's Bible Commentary, the Harper's Bible PronunciationGuide, and a new project, an annotated edition of the NewRevised Standard Version. The Writings from the AncientWorld series, supported by a generous grant from the NationalEndowment for the Humanities, signals the importance ofmeeting the educational and research needs of non-specialistcolleagues in the humanities, as well as general readers,teachers, and students, by providing easily accessible transla¬tions of classic documents of antiquity. Ventures in Religion,a series in which the SBL and the American Academy ofReligion are partners, engages the challenging complexitiesinherent in presenting biblical studies and religious studies toundergraduates. Critical Review ofBooks in Religion, an under¬taking of the AAR and the SBL, whose first annual volumeappeared in the fall of 1988, assesses scholarly works on asingle topic or in a specific field in major review articles as wellas in shorter reviews; it includes extensive book lists and a

complete author index, providing scholars with an indispens¬able research tool.

The SBL's membership in the American Council ofLearned Societies (ACLS) and the National Humanities Alli¬ance (NHA) extends its participation to neighboring humani¬ties disciplines. The SBL also works cooperatively with theAmerican Schools of Oriental Research (ASOR), the Interna¬tional Organization ofMasoretic Studies (IOMS), the Interna¬tional Organization of Septuagint and Cognate Studies(IOSCS), and the National Association of Professors of He¬brew (NAPH).

The SBL sponsors two annual meetings, one internationaland one North American. The latter is organized in coopera¬tion with the AAR and is the largest gathering of religion

scholars in the world. Scholars Press, the primary publisherfor the SBL, provides membership services, annual meetingcoordination, and placement services.

CONSULTATIONS are established to explore program inter¬ests not covered in other program units. Format may vary.Participation is open to any member. Consultations are nor¬mally approved for a two-year term and a chairperson for acoinciding term. Normally a program unit will start as aConsultation and then apply for continuing status in one ofthe above formats.

The Program Committee urges all program units tomake every effort to include younger scholars, women,and persons from racial-ethnic minorities in the annualmeeting program in as many ways as possible. Particularattention should be given to inclusiveness in the selec¬tion of program participants, program unit chairs, andsteering committees.

PROPOSALS

Proposals, due August 15, should include the following:1. Type of program unit and proposed name.2. Definition of the program unit, along with tentative

program projections; reasons for such a unit (includ¬ing careful differentiation from existing programunits); and specific plans for the initial year.

Pleaseinclude reflections about the patterns or trends evi¬dent in research and identify any "results" that havecome out of recent studies. List the peak and averageattendance at each session of the program unit.

Jacob, Ahmednagar College,Maharashtra, IndiaJohn Kelsay, Florida State UniversityRichard L. Rubenstein, Florida State UniversityDuring the recent Gulf War, Saddam Hussein ap¬pealed to the Muslim masses in Egypt, Saudi Arabiaand Syria to join in a jihad, a Holy War, against theWest. His attempt failed. Nevertheless, it was con¬sistent with the growing tendency of modern politi¬cal conflicts to assume a religious character.Because religious conflict often involves contradic¬tory, non-negotiable claims, religious warfarethreatens to be the most dangerous and the leastamenable to settlement through compromise solu¬tions. The situation has been further exacerbatedby the rise of fundamentalist movements in Christi¬anity, Islam, Judaism and Hinduism, as well as inother faiths.

This session will explore a number of significantconflicts that have led or might lead to open war¬fare. Among those to be discussed are religiousconflict in Eastern Europe, India and the MiddleEast. There will also be an exploration of the un¬derlying elements of religious conflict in the tradecompetition between Japan and the United Statesand Japan and the West in general, a topic seldomdiscussed by public officials.

Vigen Guroian, Loyola College in MarylandDevin DeWeese, Indiana UniversityThis forum will report to the AAR on the renewalof theological studies and institutions in the coun¬tries of the USSR since 1988. This renewal repre¬sents nothing less than the largest expansion oftheological education going on in the world today.The Russian Orthodox Church has created fournew theological schools on the national level andhas begun building a system of diocesan theologi¬cal schools located in many of the church's seventydioceses. A theological faculty has been reestab¬lished in the Latvian National University, a theo¬logical seminary established in Georgia, a yeshivacreated in Moscow, and many other initiatives areunderway. The dissolution of the state-supportedinstitutes of "scientific atheism" and the cultivationof bona fide religious studies promise a rapid ad¬vance of the study of religion in the post-sovietacademy.

Edited by Conrad Cherry, Rowland A. Sherrill, and Jan Shipps

"Religion and American Culture opens paths of inquiry fewhave walked, makes connections many have missed, andtransforms a field rich in paraphrase and description andpoor in analysis into a territory for fresh exploration."

- Jacob Neusner

"I recommend Religion and American Culture to all seriousstudents of the field. It fills an important need and promisesto be an important forum for scholarship from a variety ofpoints of view."

- George Marsden

"In the crowded landscape of scholarly journals, this oneaims for an ecological niche that has been surprisinglyunattended to. Now it is receiving proper attention."

- Martin E. Marty

Religion and American Cultureexplores the interplay between religionand other spheres of American culture.

The journal embraces a diversity ofmethodological approaches and

theoretical perspectives. Althoughconcentrated on specific topics, articlesilluminate larger patterns, implications,or contexts of American life. Religion

and American Culture is, thus,devoted to promoting the ongoingscholarly discussion of the nature,

terms, and dynamics of religion inAmerica.

NEW—Fall 1991Character and Ideologyin the Book of Estherby Michael V. FoxThe character of Esther is a model for life in thediaspora, a leader whose charisma came not in asudden divine imposition but as the result of adifficult process of personal development and self-realization. The brief, straightforward plot andclear-cut characters in the book of Esther speak tothe reader about the world, humanity, the Jewishpeople, history, and God. This volume is a study ofthese intriguing characters and the way theirportrayal conveys ideas about Jewish life in thediaspora.Cloth, ISBN 0-87249-757-7, $34.95

Jesus und die ZollnerHistorische und neutestamentlich-

exegetische UntersuchungenThe tax collectors of the New Testament were no

employees of the Roman organization for tax-collection but independent "tax contractors" in ahellenistic tradition. A comprehensive research ofthe sources from classical antiquity leads to theconclusion that the Egyptian papyri and ostracaprovide the best illustrative material for thejudgement of the tax contractors mentioned in theNew Testament. In this perception then, the taxcontractors in the New Testament were rich and

belonged to the upper classes. (Published in German.)1990. XII, 380 pages (Wissenschaftliche Unter¬suchungen zum Neuen Testament 2. Reihe 41).ISBN 3-16-145553-3 paper. $ 66.00

E.

Greek shorthand, (2) letter composition and theincorporation of pre-formed traditions, (3) the useof style analysis in questions of authorship, and (4)the collection of Paul's letters and its relationshipto the early use of the codex.1991- XI, 251 pages (Wissenschaftliche Unter¬suchungen zum Neuen Testament. 2.

Claus-Jurgen ThorntonDer Zeuge des ZeugenLukas als Historiker der Paulusreisen

Whetherornot the authorofActs was a companion ofPaul has been a matterof dispute foralmost 200 years.The present volume argues in favor of Lukan author¬ship on account ofthe external evidence as well as theliterary analysis and historical evaluation of the'we-passages'. Luke's narrations about his travelswith Paul, however, are not primarily intended as anaccurate account of an eye-witness, but rather asthe testimony of a Christian tragic historian toGod's providential guidance of Paul's mission.(Published in German.)1991.

David Instone Brewer

Techniques and Assumptions inJewishExegesis before 70 CEThis survey ofJewish exegesis during the era ofHerod's Temple comes to some startling conclusionsabout the techniques and assumptions used by these

early exegetes. The scribal predecessors of the rabbisin Palestine did not use allegory, did not ignore thecontext and did not read the text differently to suittheir interpretation. However, Jewish interpretersin Alexandria, Qumran, and Rabbis after 70 CE didall these things.The techniques are compared with techniques usedby otherJews of this time, including Josephus,Philo and Qumran scholars. The different types ofinterpretive techniques used by these groupssuggest that they had different assumptions aboutthe nature of Scripture.1991- 312 pages (est.)

Studies in Religion and Culture:Contemporary Questions of Interpretation

Robert P. Scharlemann, Series Editor

The University Press of Virginia is pleased to announce a re-visioning of its series ofstudies in religion and culture under the editorship of Robert Scharlemann. The newseries will focus on questions of interpreting religious and cultural traditions and theinterplay between them and is meant to include interdisciplinary and cross-culturalapproaches. What will unite the books in the series is a set of shared issues rather than acommon religious tradition, academic discipline, or cultural context. Those issues mightbest be identified as a timely concern for the meanings of religious and cultural traditionsin the face of the challenges presented by the late twentieth century. As the new centurydawns in the wake of changing national, cultural, and intellectual boundaries, how mightthe questions of meaning and value be raised in a credible way?

If you are concerned with contemporary issues of interpretation in the dialogue betweenreligion and culture, with the aim of communicating beyond a circle of specialists, wewould very much like to hear from you.

Expectation andExperienceExplaining ReligiousConversion

Eugene V. Gallagher

Expectation and Experiencecontends that any analysis ofconversion is decisively shapedby theoretical propositions aboutthe nature, function, and value ofreligion. Such theoretical choiceshave informed all of theinfluential works on the topic,from William James' The Varietiesof Religious Experience to A. D.Nock's Conversion, as well as tostudies of conversion and to

contemporary "cults." The studyof conversion offers a splendidlaboratory for investigating howtheoretical ideas about religionshape the description, analysis,and interpretation of religiousphenomena. This book discussesdata from the ancient Mediterra¬nean world, the modern U.S.,contemporary Africa, andancient India, and theoreticalapproaches from most sub-disciplines of the study ofreligion.Cloth: $29.95 ($19.95)1-55540-276-3

Theology as a Way ofThinkingRichard Grigg"This is exactly the textbook wehave needed in religious studiesfor an introduction to theology."—Robert P. Scharlemann,University of Virginia

What do we learn when we

study "theology?" How do weanswer that question in a waythat is accessible and provocativeto the advanced undergraduatestudent of religion? These are thetasks Richard Grigg addresses inhis new introductory textTheology as a V\lay of Thinking.

In contrast to approachesthat emphasize history or texts,Grigg depicts theology as a wayof disciplined thought andreflection whose methodology isindependent of any particularreligious tradition. Griggillustrates the practical applica¬tion of theological thinking withillustrative examples from adiverse array of persons"thinking theologically" fromKarl Rahner to JosephSoloveitchik, Rosemary RadfordRuether to Nagarjuna. In sodoing, Grigg helps situate thenature and importance oftheological thinking within itscontemporary social and culturalcontexts.Cloth: $29.95 ($19.95)1-55540-275-5

Judaism in SocietyJacob NeusnerOriginally published by theUniversity of Chicago Press in1983, and here reprinted with anew preface, Judaism in Societypresents a comprehensivereading of The Yerushalmi, the"Palestinian Talmud" or

"Talmud of the Land of Israel."

Comprising thirty-nine tractatesand dating from 200-400 C.E.,the Yerushalmi witnessed thetransition from late antiquity toearly medieval times.Cloth: $69.95 ($44.95)1-55540-574-6

The Bavli's One VoiceTypes and Forms ofAnalytical Discourse andTheir Fixed Order ofAppearanceJacob NeusnerThe Talmud is made up ofcompositions, which set forth,beginning to end, proposition,argument, and evidence,together with what we shouldnow call footnotes and appendi¬ces: all the information necessaryto follow a complete, andsustained thought. In support ofthat bold thesis, Neusner hereclassifies the types of composi¬tions found in the Talmud andthe rhetorical and logical formsthat dictate how those composi¬tions become coherentstatements.Cloth: $89.95 ($64.95)1-55540-604-1

Essays in JewishHistoriographyAda Rapoport-Albert, editorJacob Neusner, IntroductionThe history that Judaisminvented in the dual Torahdiffers radically from what wegenerally think of as history.Rather than describing asuccession of singular andunique events, Jewish historybefore the modern era subordi¬nated history to theology b)using it as a illustrativeparadigms and thus was,essentially, ahistorical incharacter. When modern Jewishhistoriography did emerge itsignalled as well the emergenceof a new form of Judaism.Originally appearing in thejournal History and Theory, theessays reprinted here show theway towards a portrayal ofJudaism through its theories andpractices of history-writing.Cloth: $69.95 ($44.95)1-55540-561-4

Understanding theRabbinic MindEssays on theHermeneutic of MaxKadushinPeter OchsMax Kadushin worked todescribe the theology expressedin the canonical documents ofJudaism, or what he defined asthe Rabbinic mind. In pioneeringquestions about the logic andcoherence of rabbinic theology,Kadushin's methodologyremains of interest to a current

generation of scholars repre¬sented in this collection of essayson Kadushin's hermeneutic.Essays include: Max Kadushin:An Intellectual Biography,Theodore Steinberg; Coherenceand Change in the RabbinicUniverse of Discourse: Kadushin'sTheory of the Value Concept,Simon Greenberg; Kadushin'sStudy of Midrash: Value Conceptsand Their Literary Embodiment,Richard S. Sarason; MaxKadushin as Exegete: TheConceptual Commentary toLeviticus Rabbah, Alan J. Avery-Peck; Halakhic Personhood: TheExistential Hermeneutic ofWorship and Ethics, Martin S.Jaffee; Christian Value Concepts,Gary L. Comstock; Martin Lutherand the Rabbinic Mind, GeorgeLindbeck; Max Kadushin as

Rabbinic Pragmatist, Peter Ochs;The Philosophical Study of thePhilosophy of Judaism: Appealingto Kadushin's Method, JacobNeusner.Cloth: $59.95 ($39.95)1-55540-544-4

The Bavli that MightHave BeenJacob NeusnerThis work compares theprogram of Mishnah-tractatesBerakhot Chapter Eight andBekhorot Chapters One throughFour of the Tosefta for the

amplification of a Mishnahtractate, and the correspondingprogram, for the same tractates,of the Talmud of Babylonia orthe Bavli. In so doing, itdemonstrates the distinctiveapproaches to the same task thatcharacterize the Tosefta's andthe Bavli's authorships, theextent to which in the Bavli, and— in contrast to the prevalentview — the intentional programand structure of both docu¬ments.Cloth: $59.95 ($39.95)1-55540-575-4

The Enchantments ofJudaismJacob NeusnerOriginally published by BasicBooks in 1987, The Enchantmentsof Judaism examines Judaism byobserving its liturgical life andpractice.

Both through private andfamily rites such as saying graceat mealtimes and through morepublic rites such as Passover,Neusner explores how words inthe context of ritual transformsthe ordinary into the extraordi¬nary. In addition, heconvincingly argues that, beyondthe Judaism of the dual Torah, asecond form of Judaismassociated with the Holocaustand the State of Israel isdiscernible in the rites of

practicing Jews.Paper: $24.95 ($19.95)1-55540-589-4

Judaism in the Matrixof ChristianityJacob NeusnerJudaism and Christianity as theywould live together in the Westmet for the first time in thefourth century. In that meeting,Judaism addressed the historicaltriumph of Christianity,beginning with the conversion ofConstantine in 312, whileChristianity confronted theJudaism defined by the dualTorah. Specific to this work, theauthor here examines how thepolitical context and challenge ofChrisitianity emergent in thefourth century was reflected inJudaism's developing theologyabout the outsider, published byFortress Press in 1986, thissecond printing contains asubstantial new preface by theauthor.Cloth: $64.95 ($44.95)1-55540-607-6

VENTURES IN COOPERATION BETWEENThe American Academy of Religion

The Society of Biblical LiteratureThe cooperation that exists between the American Academy of

Religion and the Society of Biblical Literature has grown from the smallbeginning of a joint annual meeting to one which encompasses publi¬cations, research, programs, placement, and communications. This co¬operation is best described as people coming together to serve theneeds of those in the academic study of religion.

These organizations have diverse yet related histories and purposes.The American Academy of Religion has evolved over a seventy-fiveyear history, and the Society of Biblical Literature was founded in 1880.Both are seated on the American Council of Learned Societies. Bothhave relationships with other scholarly organizations in the field.Important journal and monograph series are published by both organ¬izations. Both helped found Scholars Press. Membership in both groupsincludes university and seminary faculty, nonaffiliated persons, andstudents from virtually every level and type of degree program in highereducation.

The American Academy of Religion includes individuals from allaspects of the study of religion as evidenced from the Journal of theAmerican Academy of Religion and the program units at the AnnualMeeting. The long standing efforts to attend to professional and schol¬arly concerns continue through initiatives to study the field, to attend tothe cross cultural dimensions of studying religion, to provide awards foroutstanding books, to offer research assistance grants, to introduce thestudy of religion in the secondary schools, and to strengthen publica¬tions. These are some of the ways the Academy is providing leadershipto the field.

The Society of Biblical Literature seeks to stimulate the critical inves¬tigation of the classical biblical literatures, together with other relatedliteratures, by the exchange of scholarly research. The Journal ofBiblical Literature and Semeia represent the diverse journalistic activ¬ities that are joined with seventeen monographic series. Leadershipactivities for the field have focused on broadening publications to pro¬vide interpretive materials for the nonspecialist, organizing researchprojects to gain better basic tools, and widening dialogue through aninternational meeting.
