“The Pondering Repose of If”: Herman Melville’s Literary Exegesis
No full textThis study examines how Herman Melville’s oeuvre interacts with Old Testament (OT) wisdom literature (the Books of Job, Proverbs, and Ecclesiastes). Using recent historical findings on the rise of religious skepticism and the erosion of Biblical authority in both Europe and the United States, I read Melville as an author steeped in the theological controversies of the eighteenth-century. Specifically, I am interested in teasing out the surprising disavowals of overt religious skepticism in Melville’s writing. By tracing the so-called Solomonic wisdom tradition throughout Melville’s oeuvre, I argue that Melville had developed an epistemology of contemplation towards that body of Biblical texts. Scholarship has traditionally painted Melville as a subversive if not downright skeptical religious thinker. Most studies have produced authorial readings, using texts as forensic evidence to make assertions about the author’s psychology. Incidentally, such assessments have confirmed the narrative of Herman Melville as a grand failed author of the nineteenth century, while ignoring the ambivalent attitudes toward Biblical authority, textual history, and skepticism that emerge in Melville’s writing. The present study intervenes by re-addressing several procedural questions about Melville’s literary dealings with the Bible: How does Melville deal with the distinct topics of religion, theology, religious skepticism, and doubt? How does he think through the relationship between science and religion as well as that of personal religion and theology? I claim that Melville’s work can be read as a continuous contemplation of Biblical wisdom. His writing, I argue, deals productively rather than a destructive with the Bible, its textual history, and authority. Melville’s thinking on theological and religious subjects was not merely subversive but constructive. In mounting this argument, I contradict current scholarship that reads Melville as trying to invent a new American Bible. In contrast, I show how Melville’s philosophical forays, even when critical, are dependent on the ethics, language, and thinking of the OT.Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)Englis

Habitus pneumatis dan kompetensi emosional: Membaca ulang Galatia 5:22-24 bagi pendidikan karakter Kristiani
No full textThis article examines the concept of the fruit of the Spirit in Galatians 5:22-24 as pneumatic habitus that shapes students\u27 emotional competence in Christian character education. Through a qualitative approach using conceptual-hermeneutical analysis, this study explores how nine manifestations of karpos tou pneumatos—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control—can be understood as pneumatic dispositions that transform human affective structures. The analysis reveals that Christian character formation is not superficial behavioral modification but fundamental habitus restructuring through the Holy Spirit\u27s work. This article offers a pedagogical model based on pneumatic habitus that integrates theological, psychological, and pedagogical dimensions in holistic and transformative emotional competence formation.

Artikel ini mengkaji konsep buah Roh dalam Galatia 5:22-24 sebagai habitus pneumatis yang membentuk kompetensi emosional peserta didik dalam konteks pendidikan karakter Kristiani. Melalui pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode analisis konseptual-hermeneutis, penelitian ini mengeksplorasi bagaimana sembilan manifestasi karpos tou pneumatos—kasih, sukacita, damai sejahtera, kesabaran, kemurahan, kebaikan, kesetiaan, kelemahlembutan, dan penguasaan diri—dapat dipahami sebagai disposisi-disposisi pneumatis yang mentransformasi struktur afektif manusia. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa formasi karakter Kristiani bukanlah modifikasi perilaku superfisial, melainkan restrukturisasi habitus secara mendasar melalui karya Roh Kudus. Artikel ini menawarkan model pedagogis berbasis habitus pneumatis yang mengintegrasikan dimensi teologis, psikologis, dan pedagogis dalam pembentukan kompetensi emosional yang holistik dan transformatif

The Most Famous Writer of the Low Countries: Herman Brusselmans Star Author and (Reluctant) Public Intellectual
No full textAbstractThe Flemish writer Herman Brusselmans is the most famous author of the Low Countries. In this article, Herman Brusselmans is analysed as a star author. First and foremost, two striking aspects of Brusselmans’s stardom are analysed: his public visibility and the cult of the private. Attention is then focused on Brusselmans’s experience of celebrity, which he - like many other star authors - thematises in his books. Doing so, he consciously places himself in the context of popular culture. On the other hand, as a result of his celebrity status he has been expected - particularly in the last few years - to assume the role of public intellectual willy-nilly, and this in turn has had consequences for his work.</jats:p

Keluarga sebagai ecclesia domestica: Fondasi teologis-biblis pengembangan kecerdasan emosional anak dalam pengasuhan kristiani
No full textThe crisis of emotional regulation in the contemporary generation demands a reconceptualization of the Christian parenting paradigm. This research examines the concept of ecclesia domestica as a theological foundation for the development of children\u27s emotional intelligence. Through a practical and constructive theological approach, this study synthesizes patristic thought on the family as a "little church" with contemporary emotional intelligence theory. Analysis focuses on four dimensions: the sacramentality of domestic space, koinonia as a matrix for emotional formation, family liturgy in affective regulation, and the missio Dei in transformative parenting. Findings indicate that the ecclesia domestica conception provides a robust theological framework for integrating spirituality and emotional development. Practical implications include reorienting parenting from an instructive to a formative-relational model, where the family functions as a hermeneutical community, facilitating children\u27s encounter with God\u27s love through secure attachment experiences. This research contributes to the development of holistic and contextual family theology for the digital era.

Krisis regulasi emosional pada generasi kontemporer menuntut rekonseptualisasi paradigma pengasuhan Kristiani. Penelitian ini mengeksplorasi konsep ecclesia domestica sebagai fondasi teologis untuk pengembangan kecerdasan emosional anak. Melalui pendekatan teologi praktis-konstruktif, studi ini mensintesiskan pemikiran patristik tentang keluarga sebagai "gereja kecil" dengan teori kontemporer emotional intelligence. Analisis difokuskan pada empat dimensi: sakramentalitas ruang domestik, koinoniasebagai matriks pembentukan emosi, liturgi keluarga dalam regulasi afektif, dan missio Dei dalam pengasuhan transformatif. Temuan menunjukkan bahwa konsepsi ecclesia domestica menyediakan kerangka teologis yang robust untuk mengintegrasikan spiritualitas dan perkembangan emosional. Implikasi praktis mencakup reorientasi pengasuhan dari model instruktif menuju formatif-relasional, di mana keluarga berfungsi sebagai komunitas hermeneutis yang memfasilitasi perjumpaan anak dengan kasih Allah melalui pengalaman kelekatan yang aman. Penelitian ini berkontribusi pada pengembangan teologi keluarga yang holistik dan kontekstual untuk era digital
