SUMMARY:Discover the traditions and meaning of Ash Wednesday for Christians today!
DESCRIPTION:Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of the Lenten season\, reminding us of human mortality and the need for reconciliation with God. Many Christians attend special church services where they receive ashes on their foreheads. The ashes are a visible sign of repentance and a reminder of our return to dust in death. We are called to humility and faith in God for eternal life. \nAsh Wednesday is always 46 days before Easter Sunday (40 days excluding Sundays). The observance of Ash Wednesday is rooted in various biblical traditions. In the Old Testament\, ashes were a symbol of penance and mourning\, and in the New Testament\, Jesus fasted for 40 days in the wilderness before beginning his public ministry. \nLent is a time set aside each year for similar fasting\, observing an intentional season of focus on Christ’s life\, ministry\, sacrifice\, and resurrection. The Lenten season culminates with Holy Week\, which includes Palm Sunday\, Good Friday\, and the joyous celebration of Easter. \nPRAYERFUL GREETINGS to all on this coming Season of Lent\, \nIntellectual Life Office \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:CALL FOR PAPERS: The literal meaning\, between Christian worlds and Muslim worlds (7ᵗʰ‒15ᵗʰ centuries)
DESCRIPTION:The literal meaning\, between Christian worlds and Muslim worlds (7ᵗʰ‒15ᵗʰ centuries)\nConference organized at the Dominican Institute of Oriental Studies (Cairo)\nFebruary 15ᵗʰ‒17ᵗʰ\, 2024\nFrom February 15ᵗʰ to 17ᵗʰ\, 2024\, the IDEO will organize an international conference entitled “The literal meaning\, between Christian worlds and Muslim worlds (7ᵗʰ‒15ᵗʰ centuries)” \nBy pointing the finger at the “literalism” or “fundamentalism” of this or that religious movement\, current events willingly bring to the forefront the notion of the literal meaning of sacred texts\, whether it is claimed as the only authentic meaning or denounced as an oversimplification. The apparent simplicity of the literal meaning\, presented as the obvious meaning of a text\, beyond any interpretation or hermeneutic approach\, is nevertheless called into question by studies of linguistics\, which have long shown that it is a constructed meaning\, whose definition always presupposes a hermeneutic framework\, even if it is implicit1. \nWith regard to the hermeneutics of the holy texts of Christianity and Islam\, it is through medieval debates that these frames of reference\, which have already been the subject of numerous studies\, were established. For the Christian West\, from the pioneering works of Henri de Lubac2 and Beryl Smalley3 to the rich synthesis of Gilbert Dahan4\, the history of the progressive conception and canonization of multiple meanings is now known\, showing in particular the essential role played by the historia (or littera): far from being the forgotten element of medieval Latin exegesis\, it is\, on the contrary\, affirmed not only as the foundation of the spiritual senses\, but also as a rich sense in itself\, which can be analyzed at different levels. This harmony elaborated by scholarly hermeneutics does not prevent the existence of spiritual movements with a claimed strict literalism. This richness of studies on Latin hermeneutics contrasts\, however\, with their weakness with regard to other Christian worlds\, notably the Byzantine universe. \nPlease continue to read on the IDEO website. \nPapers will be given in English. \nThe conference will take place from February 15ᵗʰ to 17ᵗʰ\, 2024 in Cairo. Proposals for papers should be sent (adrien.candiard@ideo-cairo.org\, sumi.shimahara@sorbonne-universite.fr) before June 30ᵗʰ\, 2023. The papers will be published in the Mélanges de l’Institut dominicain d’études orientales.
