    Cocktail Hour, Gregory and Watts

    No full text
    For Art Month Gregory and Watts have created a series of videos and paintings unpacking the complexity of the simple cocktail. As the cocktail sees a slow revival thanks to Mad Men and Hipsters they ask what’s so important about a cocktail? The performance of making and drinking cocktails is one of the many rituals of class, in fact that functions all the more through the contemporary mask of irony. This knowledge functions even through denial (“I don’t know how to make a Manhattan”) particularly in art where artists are still expected to pretend their field isn’t elitist. Gregory and Watts make and drink a series of cocktails to unmask the myth of their own position as well as the myths/history/ideology of the sites in which they make them. For example Cosmopolitan The Block situates the making and the drinking of the Sex and the City “girls favourite drink” in the newly gentrified Redfern area. The Block, once was an area of Aboriginal managed housing but it has recently been sold off. What are the complicated interests and histories running through the site that can lead to two artists, surrounded by “alcohol is prohibited” signs, to make a Cosmopolitan

    Language and theology in St Gregory of Nyssa

    Full text link
    This MA thesis focuses on the work of one of the most influential and authoritative theologians of the early Church: St Gregory of Nyssa (†396). My topic of research consists in the relationship between language and theology, as it shaped in Gregory’s polemical works against the radical Arians, in particular against Eunomius of Cyzicus (†395).The first chapter tackles the historical side of the controversy and provides the chronology of the dogmatic disputes on the dogma of Trinity following the Council of Nicaea (325). The second chapters illustrate the conflict being at stake between two theological methodologies: Gregory's grammar of thought is scriptural, whereas Eunomius' theology is much more philosophical and inflexible in its terms. Eunomius claimed that one can know God by his essence in the concept of 'ingenerate'. On the contrary, for Gregory of Nyssa, God 'is above all names'. For him, language and sexuality are realitites of the post-lapsarian world, which made human mind opaque and the exercise of interpretation indispensable. Gregory included also the episode of Babel in the genealogy of our linguistic finitude. The third and the fourth chapters focus on the relationship between language and theological knowledge in St Gregory's third book Contra Eunomium. All words used in human language - including Eunomius' concept of agennetos – have complementary meanings, since no one can describe the essence of an object or of any part of reality. On this basis, Gregory develops his 'theory of relativity' of names, which can never befit God's majesty and glory. In the last chapter, under the heading 'Pragmatics of Language', I investigate the immediate consequences of Gregory's 'theory of relativity'. Speech is treated as a sphere, which resembles the creative power of the hypostatic Word. Therefore, rhetoric becomes the perfect tool for his pastoral concern in doing theology. By choosing rhetoric, Gregory is free to start his theological argument from anywhere, since theology is a discourse about God's redemptive economy. In conclusion, I try to emphasise the actuality of Gregory's theory of names and its importance for the contemporary debates in the Church on thorny issues as Trinitarian theology or gender. I also evaluate Gregory of Nyssa's self-consistency in positive terms

    THEOLOGIA AND OIKONOMIA: THE SOTERIOLOGICAL GROUND OF GREGORY OF NAZIANZUS’S TRINITARIAN THEOLOGY.

    Full text link
    This dissertation explores the soteriological ground of the trinitarian theology of Gregory of Nazianzus and establishes a consistent link in his thought between the spheres of oikonomia and theologia. His writings are studied against the background of contemporary theological and philosophical trends thus demonstrating the context within which he elaborated his main theological concepts as well as their novelty. Although Gregory drew heavily on the heritage of his intellectual master Origen, he significantly changed his perspective from cosmological speculations to reflections on the historical embodiment of Christ’s salvific activity. This shift was to lead Gregory towards a positive view of the body and of bodily desire which he considered a vital force in human existence capable of union with God in the process of deification. Gregory thus fully identified Christ with humanity in its total manifestation, including the human mind with its fallen and rebellious desire, now assumed and redeemed in the incarnation. Hence Gregory placed the suffering image of Christ at the heart of his trinitarian theological construction. As this thesis argues, around this image evolves the whole dogmatic edifice of Gregory’s theology. Christ’s divine sovereignty is understood not in separation and independence from the passion on Cross. Rather, its full manifestation is only possible because of the cross, because of Christ’s free and willing acceptance of it. The whole set of interrelationships between the suffering Christ and the Father and the Holy Spirit are depicted according to the logic of coincidence of sovereignty and humiliation. It is precisely in this combination of theological themes – expressed with our new concept of “kenotic sovereignty” – that the focus of the present thesis is located. This innovative spiritual disposition shapes both Gregory’s theological epistemology and his hermeneutical strategy. Arguing for the possibility of knowing the divine in and through human bodily existence and corroborating this view with suitably interpreted Scriptural evidence, he opens the horizons for the human ascension to the realm of the divine trinitarian life. In this way Gregory envisages access to the transcendent theology of the Trinity which is understood by him in purely personal terms, insofar as it implies the intimate conversation of God with us “as friends” (Or. 38.7). This unique reworking of classical and Christian themes is possible because of Gregory’s insistence that divine sovereignty and transcendence become intelligible exclusively in the context of Easter. Thus the habitually neglected narrative of the cross and resurrection of Christ in the thought of the Theologian is the only key to unlock his understanding of the luminous mystery of the Trinity

    The Rhetoric of Landscape in Gregory of Nyssa’s Homilies on the Song of Songs

It is, to be sure, an imaginary garden; nevertheless, it bears a significance which extends beyond itself. Some of this significance concerns words and texts: for as we shall see, the garden is, amongst other things, a ‘garden of rhetoric’. The garden in question appears in the Gregory of Nyssa’s Homilies on the Song of Songs.[...
