An Incarnational Mission of Mercy: A Hermeneutical and Praxis-Based Criterion for Social Reconciliation

Wamala, Matthias Mulumba January 2022 (has links)
Thesis advisor: ORFILIO E. VALIENTE / Uganda’s fragmented ethnic reality comprises the reconstruction of ethnic identities into rival categories of difference and otherness. From a historical perspective, under the ‘divide and rule’ British colonial policy, colonial anthropology, political, and economic systems polarized and mobilized native nations into oppositional and competing configurations of embodied otherness. The resultant antagonistic social ethos, ingrained in the consciousness of persons and groups, foments a legacy of sociopolitical oppression and economic alienation and instigates religious and spiritual fragmentation within the body of Christ. From a Christian perspective, this project proposes an incarnational mission of mercy centered on the event of encounter as a hermeneutical and praxis-based criterion toward social reconciliation. It offers a way of interpreting conflicted reality by transforming ethnic attitudes, social structures, practices, and new habits of relation among persons of different ethnic groups and institutions. Based on Christian values, human agency, and God’s grace, it envisions transformed human relations and the establishment of a renewed social fabric. Christian faith, hope, and love lived out in a concrete praxis of mercy inspire this proposed new way of being, relation, and practice so that Uganda may become a reconciling society that anticipates an eschatological communion in God’s Kingdom. / Thesis (STD) — Boston College, 2022. / Submitted to: Boston College.

Sweet Mercy: A Scientific Investigation

Gartner, Aubrey 25 April 2011 (has links)
The purpose of the following studies is to understand the factors that are related to and influence a person’s merciful behavior toward an offender. I define mercy as an act by a person who has the authority to do so that administers or recommends less negative consequence or punishment than is deserved by someone justly deserved. In Study 1, undergraduate students (N = 400) completed the Mercy Meter, a self-report measure of mercy. The Mercy Meter’s scale structure and psychometric properties were examined using Item Response Theory Rasch Analysis. A 14-item, 2-factor scale was established with good psychometric properties. Evidence for the construct validity of the Mercy Meter was also found. In Study 2, I examined the effect of group status and empathy on a participant’s merciful behavior towards an offender who is being punished. Undergraduate students (N = 77) participated in a laboratory experiment in which they watched another student confess to an offense, receive a punishment sentence from a second student, and carry out the prescribed punishment. Participants’ level of mercy was measured by the length of time that they allowed the punishment to continue. Results suggest that the offender’s group status, but not the participant’s empathy towards the offender, had a direct effect on mercy. Implications, next steps for future research, and limitations of the current study are discussed.

"You have sweetened your word" : sincerity and prayer in Leonard Cohen's Book of Mercy

Pezzarello, Christopher Joseph. January 1997 (has links)
Book of Mercy (1984) occupies a central place in the career of Leonard Cohen, as comparison to a wide variety of Cohen "texts," from poetry, the novel and song to the personal interview and music video, reveals. Interviews and book reviews contemporary with Book of Mercy indicate that the latter contains a sincere message of faith and prophetic warning that Cohen publicly defends. Cohen's eclectic but reverent incorporation of language and ideas from Judaeo-Christian traditions of prayer and mysticism shows his regard for the sacred expression of his predecessors. As a result, Book of Mercy stands slightly apart from the rest of Cohen's oeuvre, yet it is not simply an anomaly. Instead, it forms an integral part of a prolonged narrative of spiritual desire that began in 1956 with Cohen's first book of poetry and has continued through to his latest album, The Future (1992) and a recent poem, "On the Path." Book of Mercy marked a renewed sense of artistic vocation and conviction in the work of Leonard Cohen that remains unshaken today.
