from Doth Protest Hosted by Doth Protest

James and Andrew had a great discussion on "The Sacred Supper of Christ, and What It Brings to Us" from Calvin's Institutes (Book IV, Chapter XVII) The edition of the Institutes we read from is the two-volume Ford Lewis Battles translation from The Library of Christian Classics, Westminster John Knox Press. The quotation at the beginning of the episode is from p. 199 of The European Reformations by Carl Lindberg, 3rd Edition. The secondary source about the understanding of metonymy in Calvin is found at Derek Thomas's Blog 224 from Blogging the Institutes The books that James recommended on the episode are Grace and Gratitude: The Eucharistic Theology by BA Gerrish and Analysis of the Institutes of the Christian Religion by Ford Lewis Battles.

The Protest and the Play Museum of Colour In this two-part series, The Protest and the Play, we look back at two very different plays that were cancelled before they hit the stage – Behzti in 2004 and Exhibit B in 2014 – and use their 10 and 20-year anniversaries as a jumping-off point to ask: where do the limits of artistic freedom lie? Who has the right to tell certain stories? And would these plays be commissioned today? Behzti, a play by Gurpreet Kaur Bhatti, was cancelled by the Birmingham Reparatory Theatre after protests by members of the Sikh community, who were angered by the playwright’s depiction of a rape in a Gurdwara. The protests caused thousands of pounds in damage and forced the playwright into hiding. Exhibit B, a performance by the South African artist Brett Bailey, which featured Black actors chained and in cages, was described by its creator as a critique of "human zoos." It received five-star reviews when it opened at the Playfair Library The Last Voyage of the Rainbow Warrior July 1985. Greenpeace ship The Rainbow Warrior docks at Marsden Wharf, ready for a major protest campaign at Muroroa Atoll. Everyone knows what happened next. But do you know what went before?
