Ils m'ont violee est un recit poignant qui ne laisse pas le lecteur indifferent. Face a un drame qui dure depuis des annees, Masumbuko Mununguri nous offre une fiction cathartique qui demeure neanmoins une invitation a l'action. Comment peut-on rester les bras croises face a tous ces morts ? C'est la question a laquelle le lecteur est oblige de repondre en refermant ce livre. Un temoignage au nom de ceux qui sont morts et qui ne pourront pas parler. Masumbuko se veut le porte-parole de ceux-la. Il tire sa legitimite de sa connaissance de la region dont sa famille est originaire et qu'il visite regulierement voila deja vint ans; vingt ans que l'on tue dans l'indifference generale.
In this critical study, Dr Turbi Luka uses historical-theological methodology to engage in detail with Christologies of key African theologians and conventional theological sources for Christology, including the church fathers Tertullian and Athanasius as well as modern theologians. Turbi argues that existing African Christologies, specifically ancestor Christologies, are inadequate in expressing the person of Christ as Messiah and saviour, the fulfilment of Old Testament prophesies. Providing a new approach, Turbi proposes an African Linguistic Affinity Christology that explicitly portrays Jesus as Christ in a contextually relevant way for Africans in everyday life. This crucial study highlights the need for biblically rooted Christology and for sound theological understanding and naming of Jesus at every level. This book also warns the church in Africa, and elsewhere, to avoid repeating the dangerous christological heresies of the ancient church by remaining faithful to a biblical interpretation and orthodox theology of Christ.
Research in traditional religion in Malawi has shifted from broad ecological religions to communal rituals, as traditional rituals are scrutinised, partly in connection with the study of the HIV/AIDS pandemic and transmission of the virus. The eight essays in the collection demonstrate ample attempts to understand communal rituals in their various contexts.
Al leer la obra "Temas En Mi Peregrinar" uno se da cuenta que el autor desea compartir, de manera sutil, todo aquello que ha logrado detener en un momento dado, en contemplación un tanto mística, apoyado en su bien amado bastón peregrino. Don Tito Lagos-Bassett, con prosa tranquila, lleva al lector, asido a una mano invisible, por humildes sendas que permiten pensar en cómo alcanzar una vida más serena. Él habla ahí de la amistad, del amor, de la fidelidad materna, de manera sencilla, casi parabólica, para que el lector pueda fácilmente identificarse con los temas y, si lo tiene a bien, aplicar la enseñanza así sustraída, a sus propias experiencias personales. En el mundo convulso de la era globalizada, estos temas de reflexión se convierten en rocío puro que refresca las turbulencias de nuestras almas; y eso ocurre así, porque emana del incorruptible e incansable espíritu analítico de este autor.
