Texts after Terror
Authors: Graybill Rhiannon 
Published: May 2021

Abstract
It is widely recognized that the Hebrew Bible is filled with rape and sexual violence. However, feminist approaches to the topic remain dominated by Phyllis Trible’s 1984 Texts of Terror, which describes feminist criticism as a practice of “telling sad stories.” Pushing beyond Trible, Texts after Terror offers a new framework for reading biblical sexual violence, one that draws on recent work in feminist, queer, and affect theory and activism against sexual violence and rape culture. In the Hebrew Bible as in the contemporary world, sexual violence is frequently fuzzy, messy, and icky. Fuzzy names the ambiguity and confusion that often surround experiences of sexual violence. Messy identifies the consequences of rape, while also describing messy sex and bodies. Icky points out the ways that sexual violence fails to fit into neat patterns of evil perpetrators and innocent victims. Building on these concepts, Texts after Terror offers new feminist strategies and approaches to sexual violence: critiquing the framework of consent, offering new models of sexual harm, emphasizing the importance of relationships between women (even in the context of stories of heterosexual rape), reading biblical rape texts with and through contemporary texts written by survivors, and advocating for “unhappy reading” that makes unhappiness and open-endedness into key feminist sites of possibility. Texts after Terror also discusses a wide range of biblical rape stories, including Dinah (Gen 34), Tamar (2 Sam 13), Lot’s daughters (Gen 19), Bathsheba (2 Sam 11), Hagar (Gen 16 and 21), Daughter Zion (Lam 1 and 2), and the Levite’s concubine (Judg 19).
Fuzzy, Messy, Icky
Authors: Graybill Rhiannon 
Published: May 2021

Abstract
This chapter introduces a new approach to rape and sexual violence in the Hebrew Bible, asserting that sexual violence and rape are frequently fuzzy, messy, and icky. Fuzzy identifies the ambiguity and confusion that often surround experiences of sexual violence. Messy describes the consequences of rape, while also describing messy sex and bodies. Icky points out the ways that sexual violence fails to fit into neat patterns of evil perpetrators and innocent victims. Taking seriously these features of sexual violence, the chapter also proposes four new interpretive tactics: refusing to claim a position of innocence (drawing on Donna Haraway’s work), resisting paranoid reading positions (borrowing from Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick), tracing sticky affect (adapted from Sara Ahmed), and reading through literature. The chapter then applies these tactics to a rape text in Nahum 3.
A Grittier Daughter Zion
Authors: Graybill Rhiannon 
Published: May 2021

Abstract
Daughter Zion (Lam 1–2) is often read as a rape victim. Furthermore, and unlike most biblical victims of sexual violence, she has a voice in the text. As a result, there is a pronounced tendency in the scholarship to treat Daughter Zion as an ideal and praiseworthy victim/survivor. However, this representation is both problematic and contradicted by Daughter Zion’s own speech in Lamentations 1–2. In response, this chapter argues for Daughter Zion as a “gritty” survivor with a fuzzy, messy, and icky survival story. Her story is further illuminated when read together with other survivor texts, including Queering Sexual Violence (edited by Jennifer Patterson), Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha’s Care Work: Dreaming Disability Justice, and Carmen Maria Machado’s In the Dream House. Together, these stories form a “survivor archive,” building on Ann Cvetkovich’s description of queer and affective archives.
Introduction
Authors: Paga Jessica 
Published: May 2021

AbstractThis chapter provides an historical summary of the events in Athens in the Archaic period, including the rise and fall of the tyranny of Peisistratos and his sons, the period of aristocratic stasis that followed, and the eventual passage of the Kleisthenic reforms. Attention to the historical record reveals the tremendous degree of transformation in all aspects of Athenian society during the sixth and early fifth centuries B.C.E. It is this deep contextualization that facilitates a robust understanding of the changes in the built environment that occurred simultaneously with the changes in the sociopolitical structure of the polis. The chapter also outlines the rest of the book.
The Agora
Authors: Paga Jessica 
Published: May 2021

AbstractThis chapter focuses on the Athenian Agora, the civic center and marketplace of the polis. At the heart of this chapter is the issue of when the government buildings and functions shifted from the older Archaic Agora to this new area, and how the new buildings articulated the changed political landscape of the polis. This chapter progresses monument by monument. Three buildings in particular are highlighted—the Old Bouleuterion (Council House), the Stoa Basileios (magistrate’s office), and the Southeast Fountain House—due to their unique forms and decoration, their important functions for the polis as a whole, and their siting within the Agora. This chapter also considers the role of movement and sight lines within and around the Agora.
Becoming Jewish, Believing in Jesus
Authors: Carpenedo Manoela 
Published: May 2021

Abstract
This book investigates a growing religious movement fusing beliefs and rituals deriving from Charismatic Evangelicalism and Judaism. Unlike analogous phenomena found in the West, such as Messianic Judaism (where Jewish-born people identify as believers in Jesus) or Christian Zionism (Evangelicals who emphasize the role of the Jews living in Israel by embracing Zionist activism), it addresses a different dimension of this trend emerging from the Global South. Based on an ethnography conducted during 2013–2015 within a religious community in Brazil, this book explains why former Charismatic Evangelicals (with no Jewish background) are adopting Jewish tenets and lifestyles. Focusing particularly on women’s conversion narratives, it investigates the reasons why Brazilian Charismatic Evangelicals are embracing rules derived from Orthodox Judaism, such as strict dress codes, eating kosher food, and observing menstrual taboos, while believing in Jesus as the Messiah. The analysis indicates that Judaizing Evangelical communities should be understood as a revival seeking to restore Christianity. The incorporation of Jewish elements aims to rebuild the authenticity of Christianity while distinguishing them from Charismatic Evangelicalism and its perceived scriptural inaccuracy, moral permissiveness, and materialism. This revival also involves recovering a collective past. References to a hidden Jewish heritage and a “return” to Judaism are mobilized for justifying strict adherence to Jewish practices. Drawing upon a sociocultural analysis, this study examines the historical, theological, religious, and subjective reasons behind this emerging Judaizing trend in Charismatic Evangelicalism. This book also engages with the literature of religious conversion, cultural change, and debates examining religious hybridization processes.
Gender and Moral Transformation
Authors: Carpenedo Manoela 
Published: May 2021

Abstract
This chapter focuses on the gender dimension of the Judaizing Evangelical change in the lives of female converts. By focusing on women’s moral transformation processes through their adherence to Judaizing Evangelical ethos—modesty rules, menstrual taboos, ritual roles, and more—it describes how women’s agency is articulated in their transformation. In a context where religious rules are not inherited or socially enforced, the chapter explores the ways in which Judaizing Evangelical women are willing to be the bearers and creators of this new religious identity. The chapter also discusses the cultural assemblages and the “moral torment” involved in the dramatic religious change project of Judaizing Evangelical women.
Charlie Brown's America
Authors: Ball Blake Scott 
Published: May 2021

Abstract
Charles Schulz’s Peanuts was an unexpectedly political comic strip. While many people have come to identify Charlie Brown, Linus, Lucy, Peppermint Patty, and Snoopy with childhood and innocence, Peanuts regularly commented on the politics and social turmoil of Cold War America. From nuclear testing to the civil rights movement, from the Vietnam War to the feminist revolution, Peanuts was an unlikely medium for Americans of all stripes to debate the hopes and fears of the era. Charlie Brown’s America is the story of how the creation of one Midwestern man became one of the most influential pop-culture properties of the twentieth century and what its popularity reveals about the character of the United States.
You’re a Good Man, Charles Schulz
Authors: Ball Blake Scott 
Published: May 2021

Abstract
Charles Schulz’s early life in St. Paul, Minnesota shaped the world of Peanuts. Playing sports, doodling in class, and reading newspaper comic strips dominated his childhood. His life took an unexpected turn, however, as a young adult. His mother died from cancer and he was drafted to go fight in Europe during World War II. It was an intensely lonely period of his life. During this time he experienced a spiritual awakening and became an active participant in the emerging evangelical revivalist movement. Through practice and persistence, Schulz worked his way from local cartoonist to national phenomenon in a surprisingly short time.
Crosshatch Is Beautiful
Authors: Ball Blake Scott 
Published: May 2021

Abstract
In 1968, Charles Schulz made pop-culture history when Peanuts became the first national comic strip to racially integrate. This event was a long time in the making. Even in Schulz’s earliest works he experimented with racial commentary. But in 1968 a California teacher and mother wrote to Schulz to persuade him to introduce a black character in his comic strip. Through a series of passionate letters, Schulz finally created Franklin to honor the memory of Martin Luther King Jr. Franklin made a major splash in American culture, especially when he integrated the school classroom. Despite his best efforts, though, Schulz struggled to find a unique personality for Franklin and he ultimately failed to make the lasting difference in Peanuts that some fans had hoped.
Conclusion
Authors: Marx Heidi 
Published: May 2021

Abstract
Sosipatra’s life helps us to understand important facets of elite women’s lives in the late ancient world in general. The wealth of both Christian and non-Christian women allowed them a range of opportunities for being cultural and intellectual leaders. However, by the end of the fourth century, non-Christian women had to be more careful about their philosophical views and their leadership activities, as we see in the case of Hypatia of Alexandria. Similarly, diversity in Christian theologizing was also subject to critique and persecution. Sosipatra is one of the last female Platonists we have record of from the ancient world.
Poorly Understood
Authors: Rank Mark Robert , Eppard Lawrence M. , Bullock Heather E. 
Published: May 2021

Abstract
Few topics are surrounded by as many myths, stereotypes, and misperceptions as that of poverty in America. The poor have been badly misunderstood since the beginnings of the country, with the rhetoric intensifying in recent times. Our current era of fake news, alternative facts, and media partisanship has led to a breeding ground for all types of myths gaining traction and legitimacy. The time appears right to set the record straight. Poorly Understood is the first book to systematically address and confront many of the most widespread myths pertaining to poverty. It powerfully demonstrates that the realities of poverty are much different than the myths. In many ways, they are more disturbing. The book is divided into six sections. The first five sections examine a wide range of poverty myths, including who is at risk of poverty, why poverty exists, the costs of poverty, issues surrounding the welfare system, and the wider topic of economic inequality. Armed with the latest cutting edge research, Poorly Understood not only challenges the myths of poverty and inequality but also explains in the final section why these myths continue to exist, as well as providing an innovative blueprint for how the nation can move forward to effectively alleviate American poverty.
Poverty Spells Are Short but Frequent
Authors: Rank Mark Robert , Eppard Lawrence M. , Bullock Heather E. 
Published: May 2021

Abstract
Chapter 4 examines the dynamics of poverty spells. The time spent living in poverty tends to be of fairly short duration, generally less than 3 years. Poverty entrances and exits are most often caused by changes in employment status and financial resources, as well as changes in family structure and health status. While spells of poverty tend to be short, the likelihood of returning to poverty at some point during adulthood is high. In addition, the use of a social safety net program tends to be of short duration but frequent.
Along the Border
Authors: Cassibry Kimberly 
Published: May 2021

Abstract
A series of colorfully enameled metal vessels name forts along Hadrian’s Wall in Britain. They preserve creative responses to one of the empire’s most ambitious construction projects, a complex fortification system that was never represented in official art. Three well-preserved vessels have been recorded in England and northern France, and more fragmentary examples continue to be registered with England’s Portable Antiquities Scheme. The designs of this expanding corpus draw on six key elements: a vessel shape popular throughout the empire; enameling technology associated with the Celtic peoples of the empire’s northern lands; letters of the Latin alphabet; place names in the Celtic language; a fortified wall motif with precedents in Hellenistic court mosaics; and a triskel motif common in Celtic metalwork. These intricate portrayals conjure a place that was far more than a wall, while illustrating the entangled aesthetics of an evolving borderland.
By the Sea
Authors: Cassibry Kimberly 
Published: May 2021

Abstract
The Bay of Naples boasted not only a leading Mediterranean port, Puteoli (Pozzuoli), but also the imperial court’s favorite spa, Baiae (Baia). About a dozen glass bottles bear labeled images of these two waterfront cities. These cityscapes are unprecedented in the empire’s portable arts. As documents, they have proven useful to archaeologists parsing terrain disrupted by ongoing seismic activity and continuous occupation. This chapter connects their innovative designs to the empire’s broader visual culture, and then tracks their circulation beyond the bay to documented findspots in Ostia, Populonia, Emerita (Mérida), Asturica (Astorga), and Colonia Ara Claudia Aggripinensium (Cologne). The bottles’ complex communication facilitated urban comparisons: they are one way that people in one place might come to know another. They therefore gave viewers abroad a new sense of their own place in Rome’s globalized empire.
Introduction
Authors: Grint Keith 
Published: May 2021

AbstractThis chapter opens the debate about mutiny by considering the relationship between mutiny and leadership. Before considering the omnipresence of civil dissent, and the nature of power in military organizations, it explores leadership as a relational activity, rather than an individual competence, and suggests that, although the cases discussed are primarily historical, mutiny remains a permanent possibility. The rest of the chapter outlines the structure of the book, starting with a theoretical review of mutiny, followed by the various case studies: mutinies in revolutionary times; mutinies in the First and Second World Wars; mutinies after the First and Second World Wars; mutinies in Civil Wars; mutinies and ethnicity; dystopian and utopian mutinies; and mutinies against austerity. The final chapter reflects on the nature of the moral economy that underpins organizations and finishes by considering the role of individuals in mutinies.
Rethinking Mutiny
Authors: Grint Keith 
Published: May 2021

AbstractThis chapter begins with defining mutiny and exploring its origins. It considers the nature of military relationships across time before focusing upon the British Army Act (1955) and the American Uniform Code of Military Justice. The issues of mutiny as a collective act, and the active or passive role of those involved in mutinies, are used to illustrate the intricacies of the legal framework which then flows into using cases of mutiny on slave ships to highlight the importance of the historical context. The nature of sovereign power is then used to illustrate both the coercive control over military subordinates and the fragility of that very same coercion. This leads into the way the act of mutiny is socially constructed—in other words, what counts as ‘mutiny’ is a subjective not an objective construction. The chapter concludes with two sections, the first of which lists the ‘Refrains of Mutiny’: the patterns that recur across space and time, from the social construction of mutiny to the importance of establishing who the enemy is, the role of antecedence, the default response of the authorities, the importance of scapegoating, the omnipresence of the phenomena, the role of the heroic leader, the impact of serendipity, the relational nature of leadership, and finally the role of enthralment. The final section focuses on various explanations of mutiny, using material drawn from political revolutions and industrial relations to highlight the similarities and differences between these and mutinies, and relates such disputes to the difference between agonism and antagonism.
Dystopian and Utopian Mutinies
Authors: Grint Keith 
Published: May 2021

AbstractWhilst most mutinies relate to wages, conditions, and discipline, some are rooted in far more radical ideas. The leaders of the Batavia mutiny in 1629 were as close to psychopaths as we are likely to meet in this book, and the events that occurred under their rule—and afterwards in their punishments—are positively vile. This in itself says something about the more conventional dreams of most mutineers across time, but some were much closer to a utopian idyll than a dystopian nightmare, and the mutineers on the Bounty in 1789 were surely in this category, choosing to abandon their captain and his supporters in the middle of the ocean and sail away to what they saw as a utopian island. That is not how the British Admiralty saw it, and, once Captain Bligh had undertaken his extraordinary feat of navigation and endurance, they hunted down the mutineers and meted out what they saw as justice. The final mutiny of this chapter, on the Soviet ship the Storozhevoy in 1975, is almost a replay of the Potemkin from seventy years earlier, in that the mutineers assume they will be the spark to a wider revolution, but they also completely misread the political situation and end up being extinguished.
Mutinies against Austerity
Authors: Grint Keith 
Published: May 2021

AbstractThe last empirical chapter considers mutinies under times of austerity, starting with the Chilean Navy and ending with the Invergordon mutiny of the British Royal Navy; both occurred in 1931. The first mutiny, called in response to drastic cuts in wages, terminates with Chilean attacks upon their own fleet, and there were calls to follow that lead in Invergordon. In the event the latter mutiny, also generated by wage cuts, is defused by reducing the cuts to wages and by dividing up the fleet—a classic tactic of the establishment that effectively separated the problems into individual ship’s cases that were much easier to discipline. And whatever the promises made to the various crews in Invergordon, the reality was that many ‘marked men’ were singled out and removed from the navy to prevent the spread of the political ‘contagion’.
The Divergence Argument
Authors: Ehring Douglas 
Published: May 2021

Abstract
In Chapters 1 through 4, the Divergence Argument is refined and assessed. According to this two-step argument, it can be demonstrated that identity does not matter in fission and from fission cases, and, perhaps, other “divergent” cases, we can generalize to all cases of survival. In Chapters 1 through Chapter 3, it is argued that identity does not matter in fission since all mappings of identity onto fission seem clearly to lead to this result. In Chapter 1 itself, four such mappings are examined: (1) the fissioner is identical to both fission products; (2) the fissioner is identical to neither fission product; (3) the fissioner is identical to the fusion of the fission products; and (4) the fissioner is identical to one, but not the other of the fission products. Given each of these options, the result is the same—identity does not matter in fission.
Generalizing from Fission
Authors: Ehring Douglas 
Published: May 2021

Abstract
In Chapter 4, the second step of the Divergence Argument is assessed. This second step consists in generalizing from fission, and, perhaps, other divergent cases, to the conclusion that identity never matters. Various positive rationales offered in support of this inference are examined. One such rationale involves positing cases of identity both without a certain relevant psychological/physical relation (Parfit’s M relation) and without what matters. But it is suggested that there no uncontroversial basis for positing the possibility of cases fitting this pattern. It is also argued that a rationale that appeals to simplicity does not take us to this general result. In addition, it is demonstrated that a further rationale that depends on the claim that the constitution relation between facts about identity and facts about psychological continuity is sufficient to ground this final inference is based on a principle that is subject to counterexamples. It is concluded that it is not plausible to think that the Divergence Argument for the claim that identity never matters is successful.
The Triviality Argument
Authors: Ehring Douglas 
Published: May 2021

Abstract
In Chapter 5, a line of argument for the thesis that identity never matters in survival that does not require the generalizing step of the Divergence Argument is developed. This is the “triviality argument” and it depends on the Non-Triviality Principle that dictates that the important cannot depend on the trivial. This argument successfully leads to the result that identity does not matter, but only as a component of a more far-reaching result, Survival Nihilism. It is demonstrated that various candidates for the relation that matters in survival are either highly implausible or do not satisfy the Non-Triviality Principle whether or not one adopts a reductionist and a non-reductionist account of personal identity.
Shifty Speech and Independent Thought
Authors: Simion Mona 
Published: May 2021

Abstract
This is an essay in epistemology and the philosophy of language. It concerns epistemology in that it is a manifesto for epistemic independence: the independence of good thinking from practical considerations. It concerns philosophy of language in that it defends a functionalist account of the normativity of assertion in conjunction with an integrated view of the normativity of constative speech acts. The book defends the independence of thought from the most prominent threat that has surfaced in the last twenty years of epistemological theorizing: the phenomenon of shiftiness of proper assertoric speech with practical context. It does four things: first, it shows that, against orthodoxy, the argument from practical shiftiness of proper assertoric speech against the independence of proper thought from the practical does not go through, for it rests on normative ambiguation. Second, it defends a proper functionalist knowledge account of the epistemic normativity of assertion, in conjunction with classical invariantism about knowledge attributions. Third, it generalizes this account to all constative speech. Last, it defends detailed normative accounts for conjecturing, telling, and moral assertion.
