PARADIGMS BEHIND (AND BEFORE) THE MODERN CONCEPT OF RELIGION

This essay identifies five paradigms that are basic to understanding the historical emergence and uses of the generic idea of “religion” in the Christian cultures of Europe and America. The spread of this concept has been sufficiently thorough in recent centuries as to make religion appear to be a “social fact,” to use Durkheim's phrase, rather than so many cultural expressions and different social practices. The supremacy of Euro‐American culture—and an academy still saturated with Christian ideas—has enjoined other cultures and forms of religiosity to conform to this idea of religion; for these cultures contentment with the status quo can vie with the anxieties of influence, including “modernization.” The key paradigms discussed are the following: Christianity as the prototype; religion as the opposite of reason; the modern formulation of “world religions”; the cultural necessity of religion; and critical analysis of the Western “construction” of religion. These paradigms demonstrate the limits on theoretical variety in the field, the difficulty in making real changes in set ways of thinking, and productive foci for interdisciplinary methods of study.

VON THUNEN AND THE SIGNIFICANCE OF HIS WORK FOR THE GEOGRAPHY OF AGRICULTURE

Von Thünen's classical model of agricultural location was published in the Soviet Union in Russian translation in 1926, a hundred years after its original publication in Germany, but was soon denounced as a bourgeois theory seeking to optimize location from the point of view of minimizing production costs or maximizing the profit of the entrepreneur. The view that the von Thünen model was not applicable to Soviet conditions was stated as late as 1966 in Vol. V of the Kratkaya geograficheskaya entsiklopediya [Short Geographical Encyclopedia], pp. 196, 525. A Moscow University agricultural geographer, in reassessing the von Thünen model, now points out that its objective of determining optimal production systems for a given set of physical (land quality) and economic (market) conditions is shared by anyone who seeks the most highly cost-effective form of agriculture in a particular setting.

MEANING OF THE SOUND: MAGIC AND SUFI MYSTICISM IN THE PHONIC STRUCTURE OF THE MALAY CHARM AND CHANT

The poetics of oral Malay charms (incantations) is based on lexical repetitions and parallelisms intended to enhance their magic power. These poetical devices, in their turn, bring forth phonic repetitions of different kinds (alliterations, assonances, etc.), which make possible an increase in information conveyed by the incantation without diminishing its magical efficacy. One of the forms of such repetitions is the anagram, i.e. a device based on the division of the word-theme, for instance the name of the spirit invoked, into individual sounds or syllables and their reiteration in other words of the text. The article discusses the structure and meaning of anagrammatic sound organisation, its origin from the magic notion of the equivalency between the whole and its part, as well as the use of poetical devices of oral literature, and of the anagram in particular, in written Sufi works (Hikayat Si Burung Pingai, verses by Abd al-Jamal and Syair Perahu) which resort to the archaic poetics of the charm and chant, although reconsidering them from the new perspective.     

COMMUNICATIONS AND NEWSMAKING BEFORE THE TELEGRAPH: THE STORY OF THE 1845 QUEBEC CITY FIRES

The press made the two huge fires which destroyed two-thirds of Quebec City in 1845 into one of the most important stories of the year. By studying how knowledge of it diffused, how editors in various places presented and interpreted it, and what interest they showed in the way the story was handled elsewhere, we can examine the process of news making in the days before the telegraph was in general use. The process of communications among editors was sophisticated and utilized a wide variety of methods. Innovations designed to speed the delivery of important information and to standardize its form were widely adopted, anticipating the telegraphic wire service. News was created in a fashion that is comparable with modern concepts of editorial management. By focussing on communications and their role in news making, rather than on the technology of dissemination, important parallels between practice in 1845 and modern understanding of news become apparent. ?on;attention portée par la presse aux deux incendies qui ravageèrent la ville de Québec en 1845 fut telle que ces evénements devinrent une des plus grandes affaires de ?on; année. á partir d'une étude qui sepenche sur la question des moyens de diffusion des informations sur ?on;affaire; c'est-à-dire, comment les rédacteurs de différentes régions ?on; ont interprétée et ? ont présentee au public, ainsi que ?on; intérêt qu'ils ont portéà la façon dont ?on; affaire a été traitée ailleurs, il est possible ?on; examiner les processus de la présentation des informations lors ?on; une période ole télégraphe n‘était pas encore en usage courant.

A CAPTIVE'S STORY: PURITANS,PIRATES, AND THE DRAMA OF RECONCILIATION

Abstract

This essay examines the use of Hebrew sources in debates on church and state in civil war England. It fits within a developing historiography that seeks to uncover the deeper texture of early modern political discourse, and also poses questions about the prevalence of statist and secular understandings of public power in the context of the English civil war. Its specific focus is on debates on church government in the 1640s, studies of the Hebrew commonwealth in the 1650s, and the use of Hebraism by Hobbes and Harrington as an antidote to clericalism.
