The story of Jonah as a model for a new, biblically based moving-image genre.Gunn-Danforth, Christine 09 January 2008 (has links)
The goal of this research is to define the intent for Christian moving-image media narratives in terms of Prophetic Imagination and to develop and describe the characteristics of a new biblically based genre for Christian moving-image media that incorporates intent, content, style, and form. The story of Jonah and the related message as ironic vision, in combination with a particular didactic narrative form (edutainment), creates a medium with a Prophetic Imagination result. This medium, which is at the same time the message, is termed Jonahre. This new genre proposes a fresh Christian purpose and possibility for using the moving-image media to tell stories. In terms of the paradigm of Prophetic Imagination, the challenge for Christian moving-image media is to establish a biblically based alternative consciousness in society that results in the invitation to live a Lifestyle of the Believer in and contrary to the lifestyle of the dominant culture. Christians find themselves in a paradigm somewhat similar to the ancient Israelites in exile, as Christianity and its message have become de-centralized by the popular culture in a dominant postmodern world with a secular worldview. The task thus of preaching, telling stories and communicating the Christian message through moving-image media is to subvert these dominant ideologies through a God-given message. This message should carry a transformative revelatory purpose to glorify God and establish a biblical Christian outlook on life and the world that goes beyond merely a Christian veneer. Producers of narratives with a Christian worldview can no longer depend on simply using secular formats to convey Christian messages, as is currently often done with moving-image media. Instead, both content and form must be biblically based and have the same intent and purpose. This demands a new format for Christian moving-image narratives that aims at laying claim to the icons that dominate the secular “empire” so that they may be conscripted for the purpose of establishing a Christian worldview among the inhabitants with an empire consciousness. For the development of this new genre, the narrative of the book of Jonah as model of biblical storytelling is examined by means of socio-rhetorical criticism and communication theory. The communication as rich tapestry of interwoven textual textures is considered to find the basis for elements of a Prophetic Imagination narrative that educates in Biblical truth while entertaining the dominant cultural audience through an ironical, didactic style. / Prof. J.H. Coetzee

From Tempera to Ink to Code: The Other Media of Orthodox IconographyKononova, Brown Vera 30 April 2014 (has links)
From Tempera to Ink to Code traces the remediation of Orthodox icons. It examines icons’ unexplored, other media: cheap print, the book and digital media. Its interdisciplinary, cross-medial approach draws upon the fields of media studies, art history, art practice, religious studies, history and bibliography to establish an alternative way of viewing and understanding the icon beyond its original medium. The study focuses on the Vladimir icon of the Mother of God as one of the most venerable Russian Orthodox icons. It traces the Vladimir icon’s process of remediation from tempera on wooden panel to loose print, to bound codex and to digital form. It brings into focus the icon’s less researched, mass-produced media and applies the methods of art historical and bibliographic research to all media in question with equal scrutiny and attention. The dissertation provides a new way of looking at the storage, handling and display of icons in all their media. It categorizes the icon’s media into two groups: display media (tempera icons and loose prints) and storage/cache media (books and digital images). The display media invite veneration and thereby retain an “aura,” in the terminology of Walter Benjamin and David Morgan. Storage media, on the other hand, discourage veneration and, so, accrue no such aura. The study concludes that the loss of an object’s aura happens in unexpected aspects of remediation—in the binding, coding and, in a word, storing of information. The relationship that the study draws between the codex and hard drive has important implications for both book history and media studies, whereas its discussion of remediation, veneration and aura offer valuable contributions to the fields of iconology and iconography.

To any (body) who will listen: the evolving role of media technology in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints' missionary communication strategyUnknown Date (has links)
This thesis explores how the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS) has used media technology as part of its missionary communication strategy. Particular attention is paid to the Internet as a space for religious practice and how the LDS Church has sought to extend its media practices and missionary efforts online. By utilizing new media technology to find individuals interested in hearing its message, the LDS Church faces new challenges to its traditional face-to-face missionary program, its centralized hierarchy of control and its ongoing struggle for identity within American Christian culture. Throughout its history, the LDS Church's missionary communication strategy has used several different methods for finding people to teach but has consistently focused on ensuring that such methods ultimately lead to face-to-face lessons with missionaries, viewed as the most transformative communication exchange for both the missionary and the potential convert. / by Gavin Feller. / Thesis (M.A.)--Florida Atlantic University, 2013. / Includes bibliography. / Mode of access: World Wide Web. / System requirements: Adobe Reader.

A sacralidade digital: a mística tecnológica e a presença do sagrado na rede / A sacralidade digital: a mística tecnológica e a presença do sagrado na redeAguiar, Carlos Eduardo Souza 24 September 2010 (has links)
Trata-se de uma investigação que busca a partir de um estudo comparativo entre três tipos de manifestação do sagrado nas redes digitais (a religião tradicional, a new age e a ciber-religiosidade), refletir e interpretar que tipo de representação do sagrado o digital favorece ou até possibilita. Esta investigação está alicerçada em um quadro interpretativo das tecnologias comunicativas que as entende como elementos fundamentais nas transformações sociais, logo, a investigação primeiramente busca justificar o caráter não instrumental da mídia a partir de um exame da história das tecnologias de comunicação, analisando como diferentes tecnologias comunicativas tiveram suas influências singulares no campo religioso. A segunda etapa da dissertação pretende revisar criticamente a literatura da comunicação digital, e principalmente explorar como o tema da religião na internet foi tratado pelo meio acadêmico. As últimas etapas da pesquisa se referem ao estudo empírico da presença das representações do sagrado nas redes digitais, adotando uma estratégia de pesquisa que denominamos como estudo exploratório participativo online, que para cada tipo de manifestação elencada, possui suas singularidades. / The research consists of an investigation that seeks to understand and interpret which type of representation of the sacred is favored or even enabled in the digital culture. The investigation is made through a comparative study between three types of manifestations of the sacred in digital networks (the traditional religion, the new age and the cyber-religiosity). This investigation is based on an interpretative framework of communication technologies that are understood as essential elements in the social transformations. Therefore, the investigation first aims to justify the non-instrumental character of the media from an examination of the history of the communication technologies, analyzing how different communication technologies have singularly influenced the religious field. The second stage of the dissertation intends to critically review the literature of digital communication, and mainly to explore how the subject of religion in the Internet was treated in the academic field. The last stages of the research relates to the empirical study of representations of the presence of the sacred in digital networks, adopting a research strategy that we call an exploratory participative online study, which holds singularities of each type of the chosen manifestation.

Previous issue date: 2010-10-29 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / This research aims to compromise the phenomenon in the religious media and the mediatic religion in the conjuncture of the cyber-religion. The researched feature is to understand the religious media and the mediatization of the religion from the context of modernity and the usurpation through the religious media, specially the means of interactive and the electronic means of communication (most computers and other technologies that use the net) of the divine power and the religious and mediatic religions in the net religious experiences. The main problem in the research is set between two categories: the mediatic and the religious. The question that has motivated the research was: what changes religions have when they start their cyberspace virtual environment. The first hypothesis concentrates on the idea that there is a double contamination between religion and media, that is, the mediatic formats get the religious elements and religions use the media for their own benefits. There is a mutual interpenetration: religion gets into the media and simultaneously the media is sacralized. Thus, we observe two phenomena: the first one is that the interactive electronic means of communications get all the divine elements (the media sacralizes itself) and the religion mediates itself; the second testified phenomenon is that the religious experiences in the cyber-space (the cyber-religion) has the phenomenon of body abolition and space invalidation, two essential features not only for the religious experience but also for the communication events. The area of investigation is the Communication Science, a productive area for the interlacement of epistemological and different looks. On account of the hybrid nature of analysis objects, the theorical reference of the research uses, as a conceptual foundation, the theorical help planned by the Semiotics of Culture by professor Ivan Bystrina, Media Theory of Harry Pross and Vilém Flusser, in the formulation of communication concept for the cultural structure of symbolic texts as from the reading of processes of communication bonds by Norval Baitello Junior, the mediosfera studies, and its place in the mediatic religious imagination by Malena Segura Contrera. For the understanding of the religious phenomenon one should go to the delineated concepts by Mircea Eliade and Joseph Campbell. The research is also supported by works of cyber-culture theorists like Paul Virilio and Eugenio Trivinho, as well as in contemporaneity studious people, in areas linked to communication, such as Zygmunt Bauman and David Harvey. The concepts of sacred and profane space and time, religare, cyberculture, cyberspace, democracy, glocal, and compression of space and time are necessary for the understanding of the advent of religious experiences adapted to the cyberspace. The corpus of analysis referring to this feature has come through some communication practices that are in the virtual environments that allow religious experiences such as the constitution of new cyber-rituals as the virtual candles, virtual wakes, virtual beads and virtual pilgrimages / Esta pesquisa tem por escopo abarcar o fenômeno da mídia religiosa e da religião midiática na conjuntura da ciber-religião. O aspecto pesquisado volta-se para compreender a mídia religiosa e a midiatização da religião a partir do contexto da modernidade e a usurpação pela mídia religiosa, em particular, os meios de comunicação eletrônicos interativos (mais precisamente, os computadores e outras tecnologias capazes de rede) do poder divino e as implicações religiosas e midiáticas das experiências religiosas na rede. A problemática central da pesquisa assenta-se na relação entre duas categorias: o midiático e o religioso. A pergunta que motivou a pesquisa foi: Que alterações as experiências religiosas sofrem quando se deslocam para o ambiente virtual do ciberespaço? A hipótese inicial concentra-se na ideia de que há uma dupla contaminação (intradevoramento) entre religião e mídia, isto é, os formatos midiáticos se apropriam de elementos religiosos e as religiões instrumentalizam a mídia a serviço de seus interesses. Ocorre uma mútua interpenetração: a religião midiatiza-se e simultaneamente a mídia é sacralizada. Nesse sentido, observa- se dois fenômenos: o primeiro é que os meios de comunicação eletrônicos interativos devoram elementos divinos (a mídia sacraliza-se) e a religião midiatiza-se; o segundo fenômeno constatado é que ao ser importado para o campo midiático do ciberespaço, a experiência religiosa sofre profundas alterações. Na ciber-religião ocorre a abolição do corpo físico e a anulação do espaço material, dois fatores tradicionais tanto para a experiência religiosa como para os eventos comunicacionais. O campo de investigação é a Ciência da Comunicação,um território fecundo para o entrelaçamento de olhares epistemológicos diferentes. Devido à natureza híbrida do objeto de análise, o referencial teórico da pesquisa utiliza como alicerce conceitual o aporte teórico delineado pela Semiótica da Cultura do professor Ivan Bystrina, da Teoria da Mídia de Harry Pross e Vilém Flusser, na formulação de um conceito de comunicação pela estruturação cultural dos textos simbólicos a partir da leitura de processos de vínculos comunicativos, de Norval Baitello Junior, e dos estudos de mediosfera e o seu lugar no imaginário religioso midiático, de Malena Segura Contrera. Para compreensão do fenômeno religioso, recorre-se aos conceitos delinados por Mircea Eliade e Joseph Campbell. A pesquisa apoia-se também nas obras de teóricos da cibercultura como Paul Virilio e Eugênio Trivinho, bem como em estudiosos da contemporaneidade, em áreas ligadas à comunicação, como Zygmunt Bauman e David Harvey. Os conceitos de tempo-espaço sagrado e profano, religare, cibercultura, cyberspace, dromocracia, glocal, compressão espaço-tempo são necessários para compreensão do advento das experiências religiosas ambientadas no ciberespaço. O corpus de análise referente a esse aspecto deu- se no âmbito de algumas práticas comunicativas presentes em ambientes virtuais que possibilitem experiências religiosas tais como a constituição dos novos ciber-rituais como as velas virtuais, velórios virtuais, terços virtuais e peregrinações virtuais

Framställningen av yoga i kristen press : En innehållsanalys av kristen respons på den nyandliga praktiken yoga i olika svenska kyrkotidningar åren 2011-2021 analyserad genom hot- och resursteorin samt yogafobi. / The Representation of Yoga in the Christian Press : A Content Analysis of Christian Responses to the New Age-Activity Yoga in Various Swedish Church Magazines through 2011-2021, Analyzed Through the Risk and Resource Theory and YogaPhobia.Džanić, Amina January 2024 (has links)
This study aims to investigate Christian responses to New Age practices, specifically by examining how the New Age practice of yoga, is described in Swedish Christian press. The reasearch questions were the following two: 1) How is Yoga described in the Swedish Protestant Christian Press? 2) How is yoga presented in the Swedish Protestant Christian newspapers Kyrkans Tidning, Dagen, Sändaren and Världen idag based on Lundgren’s risk and resource theory? The method used was content analysis, both in qualitative and quantitative approaches and the material consisted of 379 articles from 4 different Christian newspapers. Risk or resource theory and yogaphobia were applied to the results and the discussion. Regarding the first question, yoga is described as either a resource, a threat or other. In the resource category, the following subcategories emerged: yoga as a resource for physical health, yoga as a resource for mental health, yoga as a resource for activity in operation, yoga as a resource for a path to Christian spirituality, yoga as a resource for a path to an internal quest and yoga as a resource for a modernization of the church. Within the threat category, the following subcategories emerged: yoga as a threat to Christianity, yoga as a threat to church activities, yoga as a threat by dark forces, yoga as a threat to non-denominationalism,yoga as a threat to taxpayers, yoga as a threat to human health, and yoga as a threat to societal progress. The second research question addresses how yoga is presented based on the risk and resource theory. Surprisingly, the majority of the articles were found to belong to the other category, meaning that the article was neutral in its reporting. However, the risk category consisted of almost twice as many articles as the resource category. An interesting discovery in the analysis part was that both the theory of yogaphobia and “yoga as a risk” advocate that the practice of yoga in a Christian context contributes to a contradiction between the fundamental dogmas of Christianity and the opposite ones based in other religions. In contrast, yogaphobia is associated with a fear or phobia of yoga, while yoga as a risk is associated with criticism based on substantiated arguments. / Folkkyrkans nya ansikten - levd religion, nyandliga praktiker och teologisk legitimitet.

Previous issue date: 2007 / Resumo: A tese propõe uma história cultural da mídia evangélica infantil produzida no Brasil entre os anos 1950 e 2000. Defendemos a idéia de que o uso da mídia foi um fator importante para a constituição de uma cultura evangélica pós-moderna brasileira, voltada para o consumo individual e para questões práticas cotidianas. O tema da família e da infância tem fomentado uma intensa circulação de bens culturais evangélicos por meio da mídia, que permite a construção de uma religiosidade transdenominacional. Consolida-se uma cultura evangélica midiática que mescla mensagens tradicionais cristãs a formatos contemporâneos disponíveis em um supermercado cultural evangélico. Focalizamos os discursos e as estratégias de produtores de mídia evangélica, a fim de analisar as representações sobre a infância cristã. Além disso, analisamos a recepção desses produtos para identificar os seus usos e sentidos no cotidiano / Abstract: The thesis proposes a cultural history of the children's evangelical media produced in Brazil between the 1950s and 2000s. We defend the idea that the use of media was an important factor for the constitution of a post-modern Brazilian evangelical culture, directed towards the individual consumption and daily issues. The theme of the family and the infancy has fomented an intense circulation of evangelical cultural goods through the media, which allows the construction of a transdenominational religiosity. One consolidates a mediatic evangelical culture that mingles traditional Christian messages with contemporary formats available in an evangelical cultural supermarket. We focus on the discourses and the strategies of evangelical media producers in order to analyse the representations on Christian childhood. Besides, we analyse the reception of these products to identify their uses and meanings in the daily life / Doutorado / Historia Cultural / Doutor em História
