Celebrations: Religiöse Events zwischen Populärkultur und kommunikativer Markierung von Religion (Erlebniswelten)
by Meike HakenSeit dem Weltjugendtag in Köln 2005 ist die Eventisierung von Großveranstaltungen auch im Bereich der Religion zunehmend zu beobachten. Dabei werden aus vornehmlich das Individuum fokussierender Perspektive dessen Erlebnisorientierung sowie ein damit verbundener Spaßbezug herausgestellt. Die ursprünglich den Festen eigene Funktion der in die alltägliche Lebenswelt hineinwirkenden Sinnorientierung und -vergewisserung weiche in den Events einer situativen kurzweiligen Sinndiffusion. Diese Arbeit befasst sich aus explizit religionssoziologischer Sicht mit den Spezifika religiöser Events. Basierend auf videographischen Daten christlicher Großveranstaltungen ist das Kernargument, dass religiöse Events eine affektive Ordnung aufweisen, welche über kommunikative Markierungen von Religion in differenzierter Weise die subjektiven Erfahrungen von Transzendenz und die Erfahrung der Gemeinschaft zu verschmelzen vermag. Es ist die affektive Relation zu etwas Abwesenden, die die Außerordentlichkeit religiöser Events ausmacht und diese von anderen Events unterscheidet.
Celebrity Culture and Crime: The Joy of Transgression (Cultural Criminology)

Celebrity Morals and the Loss of Religious Authority (Routledge Studies in Religion)
by John PortmannThis book examines American popular culture to demonstrate that celebrities have superseded religious figures as moral authorities. As trust in religious institutions has waned over recent decades, the once frivolous entertainment fringe has become the moral center. Young people and voters increasingly take cues from actors and athletes. The book begins by offering a definition of celebrity and showing that the profile of celebrities has changed dramatically, particularly since the 1960s. They can now chart their own careers, manage their own personal lives and weigh in on pressing moral issues in a manner that hasn’t always been the case. This can be to the good, it is argued, for some counterintuitive reasons. Very few stars pretend to be moral exemplars, unlike the frequently hypocritical elites they have replaced. Others, however, are seemingly poorly qualified to speak on complex moral issues. In the end, it also turns out that who tells us how to feel about any moral issue counts at least as much as what they tell us. This is a fresh look at the impact of celebrity culture on contemporary morality and religious authority. As such, it will be of great use to academics working in religious studies and ethics, as well as popular culture and media studies.

The Celestial Song of Creation
by Annalee Skarin“Here is a record of glory, revealing the method of achieving the heights, the way to unfold understanding of the Almighty Truths of God.“If you would awaken your soul to the divine symphony of the Universe, follow the way of ‘overcoming,’ the Way Christ trod. The record of His Path, the eternal, inner truths of power and fulfillment are now open, the sacred, inner knowledge that has lain dormant and in the depths of your being.“Ludwig Van Beethoven, who had become deaf, humbly acknowledged that his Symphony No. 9 came to him directly from God, and that he merely transcribed it.“What is man’s soul? It is his true being, where God has placed a seed of Himself, and this seed contains the perfect answers to one’s outside problems and inner questioning. It is the source of all inspiration and contains the power of all achievement and happiness. The soul is the innermost being of man himself.“To contact the soul, one learns ‘to be still!’ This divine search fulfills man’s conquest of himself as he begins to live God’s laws. As one learns ‘to love God with all his heart, all his soul, all his mind, and all his strength,’ he begins to find the joy and the meaning of existence. The search is one that no man can make for another. It is a quest which each individual must undertake for himself. It is each individual’s own responsibility.”—Annalee Skarin
