A Note from the Editor

Since in Februari 1999 a seperate registration form for the spring conference in Atlanta was sent to all COV&R members, and as the preliminary program for this conference wasn't available before april 1, we decided to publish this spring Bulletin in April (instead of March). We invite you all to participate in this very promising conference.

At the same time all of you are invited to send us your contributions for the Bulletin on a floppy disk or by e-mail (to johan.elsen@oxfam-ww.ngonet.be). The length of a book review should be between 600 and 1000 words. The length of an abstract should be between 100 and 300 words.

PROGRAM OF THE COV&R CONFERENCE AT EMORY UNIVERSITY JUNE 3-5, 1999

Violence Reduction in Theory and Practice:

From Primates to Nations

Conference Focus

The 1999 annual meeting, to be held at Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia (USA), is designed to explore the conference hypothesis: A 'full spectrum' of violence reduction theory and practice already exists, ranging from primate studies to international affairs with much more in-between, and needing only to be correlated in order that new syntheses can emerge to propagate violence-free societies throughout the next millennium.

While COV&R members in particular are dedicated and enjoined to "explore, criticize, and develop the mimetic model of the relationship between violence and religion in the genesis and maintenance of culture" (COV&R Object, Bulletin, p.1), scholars and practitioners of all disciplines have been invited to present papers and practicums or workshops that will make available, or provide critical resources for, a 'best theory/practice' repertory for violence reduction. The conference format will permit only brief synopses of papers or sample workshop presentations and practicums, thus allowing opportunities for audience response and participant assessment.

Conference Registration

New deadline for Registration: April 15.

Please see the detailed Registration Form at the back of this Bulletin, also available on-line at our web site: http://www.emory.edu/COLLEGE/RELIGION/VR/COVR99meeting.html

Book Reviews

René Girard, La vittima et la folla.

Violenza del mito e christesimo

(The victim and the mob.

Violence in myth and Christianity),

translated and edited by Giuseppe Fornari,

Treviso, Santa Quaranta, 1998,

172 pp.

For several years now René Girard has been promising us a new publication on the Bible. It should above all prove that his mimetic anthropology can be read entirely from within the old Book, and that his theory is not merely projected on the text as one of many possible interpretations. This collection of essays recently edited by Guiseppe Fornari - containing texts all but one of which were previously unpublished - forms a serious initiative in this sense.

Girard finds once more the absolute unicity of the Christian Revelation. Liberal biblical scholars and well-meaning aggiornamento-theologians liked to deny it, concluding that the Bible just reproduces many recognisable and world-wide mythical scenarios. The Protestant exegete Rudolf Bultmann even proposed to smooth away as much as possible the objectionable mythological elements (Entmythologisierung) in order to isolate the kerygma, the true new message in the Gospel. Girard prefers to look for the 'good news' through a particular attitude towards myth. As a unique source, the Bible - as Girard puts it - constantly raises mythological material in order to expose violent illusions which elsewhere remain covered and unnoticed. Human societies everywhere in the world have survived by regularly passing their tensions onto scapegoats; this spontaneous group "therapy" permeates our history and forms the barbaric root of all culture. It can never definitively exorcise human violence, as this violence itself is a fundamental part of the system. Myths store seriously distorted reminiscences from that archaic horror. The message the Holy Bible brings to us is fundamentally concerned with exposing aggression that is as arbitrary as it is irresistible. An episode like the one on the renouncement of Peter thus illustrates how no one can consider himself a priori immune to the illusions and the entrancing force of violent mimesis.

Within the limited scope of the contributions collected here, it was of course impossible to elaborate the confrontation in all directions. Girard shows us how the most important biblical texts make a stand against the scapegoat mechanism over and over again. He also repeats that caritas, absolute non-violence and unselfishness ('do well to those who hate you'), offers a unique chance to prevent escalations. Slightly more emphasized than in his former publications - except perhaps in the sixth chapter of Quand ces choses commenceront.. - we here learn that this caritas itself is founded on positive mimesis, on the imitatio of the Heavenly Father who after all excludes no one, and who 'makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good' (Mt. V:45).

I keep wondering whether the Bible also confirms the founding role of the scapegoat mechanism. Violent polarisation is in every way a widely spread reality, and thus a

threat to be feared. Still, the idea that all human institutions would permanently participate in this violence because they originated from it in some remote past seems doubtful to me on the one hand; on the other hand, and most importantly within this context, it is, to put it mildly, not obviously present in the Bible. The major studies of René Girard treat, more or less in equivalent doses, myths, rituals and taboos. This new book deals nearly exclusively with myths, relatively simple stories that stick closely to basic scenarios. Might the Bible on this point perhaps be smaller (or milder) than René Girard's anthropology?

In his book How to Read a Film, a classic of film theory and history, James Monaco points to the extraordinary "mimetic capacities" of the medium film. Whereas modern arts tend to increasing levels of (antimimetic) abstraction, mimesis, as imitation of reality, which Aristotle saw as the main subject of art, seems to become more and more the exclusive domain of film and television. According to the high level of daily presence of violence we should not be astonished that violence is one of the main topics in film and television today. But at the same time there is an amazing lack of serious literature reflecting this context of daily and virtual violence. Merely after "incomprehensible" and excessive acts of violence, especially when committed by juveniles or children like in the school shooting of Arkansas, there is a passionate, but short and fruitless debate about sources of violence, frequently supposing a strong and direct influence of violent movies.

The tenth volume of the German BMT series ("Contributions to the Mimetic Theory") is a selection (mainly in English) of contributions to the annual COV&R conference "Film and Modernity: Violence, Sacrifice and Religion" in Graz 1997. It can be understood as a first attempt to test the usefulness and productivity of the mimetic theory in the field of film critique. The meeting between a group of Girardians on the one hand and a group of film specialists and enthusiasts on the other hand offered an excellent oppurtinity for this experiment. G. Larcher starts the volume with a general reflection on film as an aesthetic and cultural project of modernity and its violent substructures. Based on films of Th. Angelopoulos ("Ullysses's Gaze") and E. Kustorica ("Underground") he goes further into the question of personal and historical identity as well as of reconciliation in the face of the Bosnian conflict. The article of R. Hamerton-Kelly outlines the historical background of this conflict and provides a mimetic interpretation emphasizing the specific role of religion.

M. Ross and B. Murauer look into the presentation of violence and the role of vengeance in films of A. Ferrara ("King of New York", "Bad Lieutenant", "The Addiction"), whereas P. Hasenberg exposes the religious dimension in Ferrara's Films, especially Ferrara's outlook for "pain and redemption" within his dark urban cosmos of extreme violence, sex, drugs and alcohol. H. Meindl and Ch. Suppan introduce the Austrian film director Michael Haneke and his "aesthetics of violence"; the intention of Hanekes films is to "give to violence back, what it is: pain, violation of others". The use of drastic filmic techniques to achieve this intention, especially in his film "Funny Games", led in Cannes as well as at the conference in Graz to very emotional reactions and discussions. Haneke himself presents in his article a general reflection on the relationship between violence and media. A. Duque touches this relationship in "Modern Film and the Crisis of Human Values" too, how-ever in a rather pessimistic view and not so close to film analysis than most of the other articles.

E. Arens, B. Neurathner and C. Ginther go into the topic of capital punishment, represented in films by T. Robbins ("Dead Man Walking") and Herz Frank ("The Last Judgement"). A. Bartlett, A. Heller, J. Pahl and Ch. Wessely on the other hand turn their attention to the presence of excessive violence and sacrificial structures in contemporary American mainstream cinema, exemplified by films like "Natural Born Killers" (O. Stone), "Pulp Fiction" (Qu. Tarantino) and "Halloween" (J. Carpenter). D. Culbertson covers the mechanisms of sacrificial expulsion and scapegoating in her analysis of "Au Revoir les Enfants" (L. Malle). The volume is completed by René Girards (so far unpublished) public lecture "Reconciliation, Violence and the Gospel" in the Schubert-cinema in Graz. Although the lecture, which was part of the Second European Ecumenical Assembly, does not examine directly the film topic, it fits well into this volume frequently referring to violence, mimetic rivalry and scapegoating; moreover Girards unique technique of reading texts may also contribute to find new techniques of "reading" films.

Christian Metz, another important film theorist, warns in his Essais sur la signification au cinéma that film as a simple art runs the permanent risk to fall victim to his simplicity: "A film is difficult to explain, since he is easy to understand." The images of violence, especially those of contemporary mainstream cinema, seem easy to understand, but they are likewise hard to explain. This volume is a good approach of how we may "read" the signs of violence in contemporary films, not least thanks to the mimetic theory.

Dissertations

Friday's Children: An Examination of Theologies of Martyrdom in the Light of the Mimetic Theory of René Girard.

by Michael Joseph Kirwan,

Heythrop College, University of London.

Doctor of Philosophy, 1998.

The thesis looks in detail at different understandings of the phenomenon and significance of Christian martyrdom, with a view to what is needed for an adequate doctrine of martyrdom for the present day. My primary methodological tool is the 'mimetic' theory associated with the cultural anthropologist René Girard, which looks at the interrelations between culture, religion and violence. I work, therefore, with two aims in view: firstly, an enhanced doctrine of martyrdom, and secondly, an assessment of the utility or otherwise of mimetic theory when applied to a particular area of Christian doctrine.

In a preliminary first chapter, I establish the theological context within which questions about martyrdom are to be raised, namely the doctrine of atonement. I provide a survey of recent reflection on the principal metaphors of atonement (victory over demonic powers, justice, sacrifice), and indicate how this approach may be of help in constructing a theology of martyrdom.

The second chapter offers a description and definition of Christian martyrdom by way of an extensive historical survey, drawing upon biblical, martyrological and patristic sources. I show how this 'classical' doctrine of martyrdom contains a number of problematic aspects. A discussion of twentieth-century reflections and reworkings of the theme of martyrdom reveals further complexities for an adequate doctrine. It is these aporias, I contend, which require a fresh theoretical approach- namely, that of mimetic theory- if an adequate doctrine is to be worked out.

Chapter Three introduces the mimetic theory associated with Girard and developed for systematic theology by the Swiss Jesuit, Raymund Schwager, and essays a critical assessment. I contend that mimetic theory opens up two methodological options for a reflection on martyrdom: a radical hermeneutic of suspicion, and the basis of a 'dramatic' theology.

On the basis of these two options, therefore, the discussion of the final fourth chapter addresses the aporias of the theology of martyrdom. I confirm here the abiding importance of martyrdom for systematic theology, while making explicit the criteria (drawn from mimetic theory and other sources) by which a non-pathological, 'authentic' theology of martyrdom may be affirmed.

The preceding discussions are illustrated by means of two Appendices, which look in more detail at selected scriptural passages (the Binding of Isaac in Genesis 22, the 'Servant Songs' of Second Isaiah) and early martyrological texts (Ignatius' Letter to the Romans, and the Passio Perpetuae et Felicitas).

"Christ follows Dionysus": Myth, Modernism, and the Mimetic Theory

A Brief Summary of Work-in-Progress

by Matthew R. Kratter

(Dissertation, UC-Berkeley, English Department)

In July 1914, on the eve of apocalyptic violence, the American poet Ezra Pound wrote to his publisher: "Jehoveh is a swine, a low grade anthropomorphic deity invented by the most loathsome of semites. . . America needs some definitely pagan publication." Contra his defenders, I believe that Pound's whoring after strange gods (like his anti-semitism) is constitutive, not intermittent; and much the same (to a greater or lesser degree) might be said of other "high modernists" like Yeats, Lawrence, Forster, Stevens, and the early Eliot. In this genealogy of literary modernism, the noxious influence of Nietzsche is present everywhere. Following the ancient trail trodden by the Lutheran clergyman's son, the modernists turn from the "life-denying" God on the Cross to the "life-affirming" radiance of the philhellene's imagined Attic paradise. In fact, one might define the movement, and the critical schools that have descended from it, in relationship to just this flight from Christianity to myth, the occult, national folklore, fascism, and neo-Dionysian ritual. My dissertation takes as its starting point the old critical debate over the relationship of myth to modernism (two words whose meaning the critics even now cannot agree on), but quickly moves on to the larger context of the birth of the modern social sciences, the history of myth interpretation, and the impact of the Gospel on the West.

Given what we now know (thanks to the mimetic theory) about the genesis of myth, it is a strange historical irony that modernists like Pound and Lawrence should be so anti-Christian, while at the same time employing myths in a manner that allows their original persecutory character to reemerge. Thus we find Pound in the Cantos resurrecting the Artemis/Actaeon myth as a useful model of how a modern genocidal purge might work: Artemis the slayer, for Pound, stands as a bracing alternative to that snivelling little Christian virtue called "Pity," which would have one refrain from setting the dogs on Actaeon. In much the same way, Lawrence (in The Plumed Serpent) resurrects the myth (and rituals) of Quetzalcoatl as a desired alternative to a "weak" Christianity that seeks to rehabilitate the victim. Pound and Lawrence fall into the same trap as Nietzsche and side with Dionysus against the Crucified.

The other half of my dissertation deals with the unmaskers of myth and ritual - especially Eliot, Joyce, and Faulkner, who for the most part belong to that lucky club of authors who (whatever their individual stances towards institutional Christianity) recognize the relevance of the Christian gospels to social theory. These modernists see myth for what it is, demystify it, and demonstrate its genesis in interpersonal rivalry and spasms of collective violence. In St-Denis, I mapped out the implicit anthropology that emerges from Joyce's treatment of enemy twins in Ulysses. Of course, both Joyce and Faulkner had the distinct advantage of having grown up in settings where many traditional rituals were still mostly intact. Joyce took great interest in the Irish custom of "hunting the wren," in which a bird is stoned and then divided up by the community on St. Stephen's Day (December 26). Likewise, much of Faulkner's obsession with lynching stems from his intense interest in the relationship between violence and mythology. In Light in August (1932), for example, he clearly sees that Zeus the thundergod is nothing more than a deified victim, and that Joe Christmas's death is homologous to the Crucifixion. Reading from Calvary, it becomes clear that the anthropologists' comparative method and the modernists' mythical method are just pit stops on the road to the Kingdom.

Report from the semi-annual American meeting of COV&R

on Fieldwork in Sacred Violence.

(Orlando, Florida, November 21)

The semi-annual American meeting of COV&R met in Orlando, Florida, November 21 in conjunction with the annual meeting of the American Academy of Religion. The topic was "Fieldwork in Sacred Violence." Fred Boehrer of the Catholic Worker Community in Albany, New York, described the many ways he and his colleagues work to defend the homeless, the marginalized, and the poor in his city. He is particularly effective in calling attention to the inadequacies of the local government in providing appropriate services to the dispossessed and powerless. He noted that his efforts were often directed to publicizing and mediating problems, and inviting those otherwise unaware of the issue to stand with the Catholic Workers in their own "standing with "the scapegoats" of the American economic and political systems. He left the convention early to fly to Fort Benning, Georgia, to protest with thousands of others at the School of the Americas, the site of U.S. sponsored paramilitary training for Latin American government soldiers.

The second speaker was Paul Bellan-Boyer of All Nations Lutheran Church in Jersey City. The speech and ensuing discussion described a scapegoating experience within a church and parish setting, a community crisis that exemplified in curious detail all the elements of the Girardian dynamic of collective expulsion. The respondents were Rusty Palmer, Thee Smith, and Walter Wink.
