The Gift of Black Students to Graduate Theological Education
No full textAn online forum conversation in observance of Lancaster Theological Seminary's annual African American Heritage Celebration, held virtually online via Zoom on February 17, 2022. Digital video recording (mp4). Duration: 1 hour, 7 minutes, 41 seconds.
This candid and insightful conversation features a nationally known leader in theological education, The Very Rev. Canon Dr. Kelly Brown Douglas, dean of the Episcopal Divinity School at Union Theological Seminary, in conversation with Lancaster Seminary's distinguished civil rights advocate and senior adjunct professor, The Rt. Rev. Dr. Nathan Baxter. This Black History Month forum is made possible by The Nathan D. Baxter Fund for African American Studies.
Black students bring many gifts to our seminary classroom discussions, communal worship, and social witness that have not always been appreciated. At times, Black worship and preaching styles, biblical interpretation, and even academic rigor were disregarded, diminished, and even demeaned. This enlightening and relevant discussion expands our understanding of and appreciation for authentic diversity and inclusion
Genres and Jurisdictions: Laws Governing Monastic Inheritance in Seventeenth-Century Burma
No full textThis article examines laws governing the inheritance of monastic property and discourse about such law, expressed in the two principle vernacular and Pāli genres of written law in circulation in seventeenth-century Burma: Vinaya and dhammasattha.Calling into question any strict divide between lay and monastic legal spheres, it shows that monastic inheritance did not fall under the exclusive jurisdiction of Vinaya, and also that Vinaya laws regulating monastic partition were appropriated by dhammasattha for application to the lay community.This is a Corrected Version of Record of: Lammerts, C.

A Yang-Baxter equation for metaplectic ice
No full textWe will give new applications of quantum groups to the study of spherical Whittaker functions on the metaplectic -fold cover of , where is a nonarchimedean local field. Earlier Brubaker, Bump, Friedberg, Chinta andGunnells had shown that these Whittaker functions can be identified with the partition functions of statistical mechanical systems. They postulated that a Yang-Baxter equation underlies the properties of these Whittaker functions. We confirm this, and identify the corresponding Yang-Baxter equation with that of the quantum affine Lie superalgebra, modified by Drinfeld twisting tointroduce Gauss sums. (The deformation parameter is specialized to theinverse of the residue field cardinality.) For principal series representations of metaplectic groups, the Whittaker models are not unique. The scattering matrix for the standard intertwining operators is vector valued. For a simple reflection, it was computed by Kazhdan and Patterson, who applied it to generalized theta series. We will show that the scattering matrix on the spaceof Whittaker functions for a simple reflection coincides with the twisted -matrix of the quantum group .This is a piece of the twisted -matrix for, mentioned above.In the appendix (joint with Nathan Gray) we interpret values of spherical Whittaker functions on metaplectic covers of the general linear group over a nonarchimedean local field as partition functions of two different solvable lattice models. We prove the equality of these two partition functions by showing the commutativity of transfer matrices associated to different models via the Yang-Baxter equation.<br
