Creating resistances: pastoral care in a postcolonial world /
:
Multiple forms of oppression, injustice, and violence today have roots in histories of colonialism. This connection to the past feels familiar for some and less relevant for others. Understanding and responding to these connections is more crucial than ever, yet some resist rather than face this task directly. Others resist oppressive postcolonial conditions. Using intercultural stories and pastoral care scholarship, this book charts pathways through five resistances (not me, not here, not now, not relevant, not possible) to awaken creative pastoral care in a postcolonial world. McGarrah Sharp recommends practices that everyone can do: believing in each other, revisiting how histories are taught, imagining more passable futures, heeding prophetic poets, and crossing borders with healthy boundaries.

Irony in the Bible : Between Subversion and Innovation /
:
It is generally agreed that there is significant irony in the Bible. However, to date no work has been published in biblical scholarship that on the one hand includes interpretations of both Hebrew Bible and New Testament writings under the perspective of irony, and on the other hand offers a panorama of the approaches to the different types and functions of irony in biblical texts. The following volume: (1) reevaluates scholarly definitions of irony and the use of the term in biblical research; (2) builds on existing methods of interpretation of ironic texts; (3) offers judicious analyses of methodological approaches to irony in the Bible; and (4) develops fresh insights into biblical passages.

Shared storytelling in Euripidean stichomythia /
:
Long, stichomythic dialogues in the tragedies of Euripides are connected with some of the greatest problems of critical appreciation. The form is considered unnatural particularly when characters use stichomythia to tell stories to each other. In Shared Storytelling in Euripidean Stichomythia Liesbeth Schuren tries to rehabilitate Euripidean stichomythia, using pragmatic and narratological approaches. In the section devoted to pragmatic analysis, comparison between the turn-taking systems in Euripidean stichomythia and naturally occurring conversation establishes to what extent convention and realism are operative. Using narratological arguments, the traditional apparatus is expanded to suit the dialogic nature of narrative stichomythia. Analysis of narrative presentation in storytelling with two interlocutors results in a multi-faceted perspective, an effect unique to narrative stichomythia.

Responsibility Sharing in International Refugee Law : Towards Common but Differentiated Legal Obligations /
:
Achieving a more fair and equitable sharing of refugee protection responsibilities between states has been a perennial challenge of the global refugee regime. The Refugee Convention did not codify a legal obligation of responsibility sharing and as a result any assistance to refugee host states remains voluntary. This responsibility sharing gap has in turn negatively impacted on the quality of refugee protection and on interstate relations by exacerbating existing inequalities undermining the fairness of the international refugee law regime. This book offers a pragmatic yet principled solution to the responsibility sharing gap. It puts down a detailed proposal for the long-resisted UN Protocol on Responsibility Sharing which would codify a light package of responsibility sharing obligations by requiring states to contribute to refugee protection and solutions under a framework of common but differentiated responsibilities based on capabilities. Building on the Global Compact on Refugees and drawing inspiration from international climate change law, the book makes a compelling case for further multilateral law making.

Philosophy as a Way of Life: New Research Directions /
:
This book brings together contributions from leading scholars around the world on philosophy as a way of life (PWL), the research field opened up by the groundbreaking works of Pierre and Ilsetraut Hadot. The chapters examine how PWL opens up new perspectives on historical thinkers like Augustine, Alberti, and Mary Astell (part 1), examine the scope and dimensions of this growing research field, including in its comparative dimensions (part 2), and reflect upon PWL as a metaphilosophical paradigm (part 3). The collection as a whole, which closes with contributors reflecting on targeted questions, aims to chart the next research directions for PWL, 30 years after Pierre Hadot's classic study was translated into English.

Brill's companion to Camus : Camus among the philosophers /
:
"It has become customary that scholarly works devoted to the study of Camus's philosophical thought begin with an apology. It is as if any treatment of this philosophy was still haunted by the necessity to protect the writer from overly critical opinions, stemming from the conviction that Camus was un philosophe pour classes terminales".
