In the 1950s and 1960s, Cameron delved deeply into Crowley’s magical writings alongside those of comparative mythologist Joseph Campbell (1904–1987). The article especially highlights how Cameron creatively adapted and re-worked the ideas of both thinkers in her artistic interpretations of her Holy Guardian Angel.

Crowley claimed success for the musical achievements of Leila Waddell (1880–1932), the poetry of Victor Neuburg (1883–1940) and the artistic talents of Frieda, Lady Harris, née Bloxam (1877–1962). In 1938, Crowley invited Harris to illustrate <em>The Book of Thoth</em>, his last major magical work, designating her “artist executant.” Their partnership extended far beyond the requirements of the Thoth Tarot paintings: not only did Harris become Crowley’s magical pupil; they formed a strong and enduring friendship that lasted to the end of Crowley’s life. Harris had already achieved moderate success as an artist, but Crowley showed her how she could express esoteric concepts in her paintings, thereby creating “something completely new in art” (Harris to Crowley, Letter, 10 December 1940). Harris’s correspondence with Crowley shows that she eagerly embraced his guidance, determined to manifest the Tarot images in accordance with his vision. At the same time, she applied the same techniques to her own works and came to the realisation that art was the true basis of her spiritual path. Using extracts from Crowley’s and Harris’s correspondence, Crowley’s diary entries, and examples of Harris’s artwork, this article will argue that in the case of Frieda Harris, Crowley did indeed draw out her nascent artistic skills, and in doing so, enabled her to manifest Tarot designs, which on his own admission, “any given card is something beyond anything I had ever contemplated” (Crowley to Harris, Letter, 25 January 1939).</p>","PeriodicalId":41383,"journal":{"name":"Religion and the Arts","volume":"19 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2024-03-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140323518","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

After the twentieth century, Buddhism has gone beyond being a representative ideology of the East and continues to be a social and cultural inspiration for many people worldwide. By focusing on the artworks of three Korean artists, Jeong Hwa Choi, Kimsooja, and Do Ho Suh, this study explores in detail how Buddhism inspires artists to visualize self-reflection and transnational identity and how traditional Buddhism contributes to the universalization, conceptualization, and communication of contemporary art. It also discusses how Buddhism is being reinterpreted and visualized by contemporary artists today, becoming a work of art for the public, not art for the few.

This paper tries to answer why death can be understood as a gift even by us, even though this idea seems to contradict the traditional belief that death is a punishment for the sin of the first people in Paradise. As unorthodox as it may seem, this paper suggests that it might have been inspired by Aquinas, who presented death as an essential attribute of the human body given to it from the moment of creation, but which in Paradise was only suppressed by a special grace from God. Aquinas suggests that after the introduction of sin to the world, this grace was removed and death regained its appointed effect. Death actually became a necessary means through we are able to come back to God’s presence—thus in a sense, it is a gift.</p>","PeriodicalId":41383,"journal":{"name":"Religion and the Arts","volume":"65 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2023-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138817102","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Iconophilia was finally reinstated after a wave of iconoclasm swept across the Empire. The controversy coincides with dramatic changes within the Byzantine empire, making it difficult to establish consensus amongst scholars regarding its possible causes. After discussing several of the theories that seek to explain the adoption of iconoclasm in the Byzantine Empire, we will seek to show how image veneration was transformed and differentiated from relic worship thanks to its encounter with iconoclasm. After reviewing icon veneration prior to the Iconoclastic Controversy, this article will elucidate the philosophy of the image developed by Patriarch Nicephorus in order to show how he differentiated veneration from idolatry by redefining the image as “similar to” (<em>homoiosis</em>) rather than consubstantial with (<em>homoousios</em>) its model. By differentiating image veneration from the theory of consubstantiality that was normative within Judaism and Islam, Christian philosophy of the image will differentiate resemblance from identity, inscription from circumscription, and thereby reveal iconoclasm to be in the eye of the beholder.</p>","PeriodicalId":41383,"journal":{"name":"Religion and the Arts","volume":"21 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2023-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138821522","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As with missionization in other denominations, this introduced a variety of primarily Euro-American musical influences into African religious practices. Over the years, Adventist musicians have constantly negotiated a complex relationship to their African contexts, often yielding musical outcomes that cannot be reduced simply to an indigenous vs exogenous or ‘African’ vs ‘Western’ binary evaluation. This intersectional phenomenon is not thoroughly explored in the current scholarship on SDA music. This paper provides background and details on collaborations and exchanges in various repertoires since the 1980s. I argue that these embody intersectional ideas that emerge beyond geographical, cultural, and chronological boundaries. The study is developed from analyzing unstructured interviews and audio recordings to illustrate perpetually blurred boundaries in musical practices that have conventionally distinguished “African” vocal sound.","PeriodicalId":41383,"journal":{"name":"Religion and the Arts","volume":"58 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134945304","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Providing a transgressive theological terroir for Nabokov to probe the porous varieties of the real, the Antonian sources of Krug’s “haloed hallucination” invite further reconsideration of Nabokov’s self-styled “indifference” to the Christian imaginary.","PeriodicalId":41383,"journal":{"name":"Religion and the Arts","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134945305","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
