“Ordained Footsteps” is a series of fictitious, inspirational short stories. The story is about a group of church members who plan a weekend hiking trip.

In sharing their life stories, they will share the trials and tribulations they endured before dedicating their lives to Christ.
The Task of the Interpreter offers a new approach to what it means to interpret a text, and reconciles the possibility of multiple interpretations with the need to consider the author's intention. Vandevelde argues that interpretation is both an act and an event: It is an act in that interpreters, through the statements they make, implicitly commit themselves to justifying their positions, if prompted. It is an event in that interpreters are situated in a cultural and historical framework and come to a text with questions, concerns, and methods of which they are not fully conscious. These two aspects make interpretation a negotiation of meaning. The Task of the Interpreter provides an interdisciplinary investigation of textual interpretation including biblical hermeneutics (Gregory the Great's Homilies on Ezekiel), translation (Homer's The Odyssey), and literary fictions (Grass's Dog Years and Sabato's On Heroes and Tombs). Vandevelde's philosophical discussion will appeal to theorists of both continental and analytical/pragmatic traditions.

Judas Iscariot est une figure majeure du récit évangélique. Sans Judas pas de mort de Jésus-Christ en Croix et pas de Rédemption. Le geste de Judas, sa livraison de Jésus, sa trahison, traduira à tort Jérôme dans sa Vulgate dans une intention accusatoire qui nourrira deux mille ans d'antijudaïsme chrétien, reste un mystère. Les motivations de l'Iscariot ne sont pas explicitées par Marc et Matthieu. Luc et Jean introduisent Satan dans l'intrigue évangélique. Jean invente l'avarice mais ne convainc pas. Pourquoi Jésus a-t-il laissé ce disciple agir ? Ne lui a-t-il même pas enjoint de le faire ? La fin de Judas, suicidé ou mort par accident, ayant survécu, reste incertaine. ...

In a narrative gracefully combining intellectual and cultural history, Richard Cándida Smith unfolds the legacy of Stéphane Mallarmé (1842-1898), the poet who fathered the symbolist movement in poetry and art. The symbolists found themselves in the midst of the transition to a world in which new media devoured cultural products and delivered them to an ever-growing public. Their goal was to create and oversee a new elite culture, one that elevated poetry by removing it from a direct relationship to experience. Instead, symbolist poetry was dedicated to exploring discourse itself, and its practitioners to understanding how language shapes consciousness. Cándida Smith investigates the inte...
Un grand-père juif qui a travaillé pour la Gestapo... Une famille éclatée, cadenassée dans son silence... Outre-Mère est moins le récit de la véritable histoire de Charles Morgenstern, juif bruxellois enrôlé dans l’armée allemande puis indicateur au service de la Gestapo, que celle de son dévoilement, malgré le silence imposé qui règne encore dans sa famille deux générations plus tard. Que faire des secrets ? De la famille, de la guerre et de ses monstres ? Du silence de la mère ? Ces questions provoquent tout autant l’enquête de Lucie que l’écriture envoûtante de ce roman. À PROPOS DE L'AUTRICE Nouvelliste maintes fois primée, Dominique Costermans a signé avec "Outre-Mère" un premier roman au style épuré et à l’architecture subtile. Sa réédition est accompagnée d’un entretien entre l’autrice et Jacques De Decker, secrétaire perpétuel de l’Académie royale de langue et de littérature.
