Sommario/riassunto |
|
In 1322, a Jewish doctor named Abner entered a synagogue in the Castilian city of Burgos and began to weep in prayer. Falling asleep, he dreamed of a "great man" who urged him to awaken from his slumber. |

Shortly thereafter, he converted to Christianity and wrote a number of works attacking his old faith. Abner tells the story in fantastic detail in the opening to his Hebrew-language but anti-Jewish polemical treatise, Teacher of Righteousness.In the religiously plural context of the medieval Western Mediterranean, religious conversion played an important role as a marker of social boundaries and individual identity. The writers of medieval religious polemics such as Teacher of Righteousness often began by giving a brief, first-person account of the rejection of their old faith and their embrace of the new. In such accounts, Ryan Szpiech argues, the narrative form plays an important role in dramatizing the transition from infidelity to faith.Szpiech draws on a wide body of sources from Christian, Jewish, and Muslim polemics to investigate the place of narrative in the representation of conversion. Making a firm distinction between stories told about conversion and the experience of religious change, his book is not a history of conversion itself but a comparative study of how and why it was presented in narrative form within the context of religious disputation. He argues that between the twelfth and fifteenth centuries, conversion narratives were needed to represent communal notions of history and authority in allegorical, dramatic terms. After considering the late antique paradigms on which medieval Christian conversion narratives were based, Szpiech juxtaposes Christian stories with contemporary accounts of conversion to Islam and Judaism. He emphasizes that polemical conflict between Abrahamic religions in the medieval Mediterranean centered on competing visions of history and salvation. By seeing conversion not as an individual experience but as a public narrative, Conversion and Narrative provides a new, interdisciplinary perspective on medieval writing about religious disputes. |

Die Corona-Pandemie hat Lateinamerika mit besonderer Härte getroffen. In keiner Weltregion haben sich so viele Menschen nachweislich mit dem Virus infiziert wie hier. Unter dem Einfluss der Pandemie haben Armut und Ungleichheiten zugenommen und die Wirtschaftskrise hat sich verschärft. In einigen Ländern haben autoritäre und repressive Tendenzen zugenommen. All dies stellt die Region vor enorme Herausforderungen. Der Sammelband widmet sich den Folgen |

der Corona-Pandemie und den pandemiebezogenen politischen Maßnahmen in Lateinamerika und der Karibik. Die Beiträge betrachten die Folgen der Pandemie für soziale Ungleichheiten, Geschlechterverhältnisse, Gewalt gegen Frauen, Demokratie, Menschenrechte, Arbeit, die Mobilisierung von Protest und Umweltpolitik. Die Artikel diskutieren, welche gesellschaftlichen und politischen Lehren sich aus den Pandemieerfahrungen in Lateinamerika Ende 2021 ziehen lassen, zu einem Zeitpunkt an dem die Region weit entfernt ist von einer postpandemischen Ära. Mit Beiträgen von Carolina Alves Vestena, Hans-Jürgen Burchardt, Alba Carosio, Kristina Dietz, Patrick Eser, Caroline Kim, Moritz Krawinckel, Stefan Peters, Axel Rojas, Christiane Schulte, Jürgen Weller, Andréa Zhouri und Claudia Zilla. |
The coronavirus pandemic has hit Latin America particularly hard. In no other region of the world have so many people been infected with the virus as here. Influenced by the pandemic, poverty and inequality have increased, the economic crisis has worsened and, in some countries, authoritarian and repressive tendencies have grown, all of which poses enormous challenges for the region. This anthology is dedicated to the consequences of the coronavirus pandemic and pandemic policies in Latin America and the Caribbean. The articles it contains examine the consequences of the pandemic in terms of social inequalities, gender relations, violence against women, democracy, human rights, labour, the mobilisation of protest and environmental policy. They discuss what social and political lessons can be drawn from the pandemic experience in Latin America at the end of 2021, when the region is far from a post-pandemic era. With contributions by Carolina Alves Vestena, Hans-Jürgen Burchardt, Alba Carosio, Kristina Dietz, Patrick Eser, Caroline Kim, Moritz Krawinckel, Stefan Peters, Axel Rojas, Christiane Schulte, Jürgen Weller, Andréa Zhouri and Claudia Zilla. |
