23. The CODART List - Religion - Museums With Dutch Art And Flemish Art Sectarianism in matters of religion was bad for business. Until recently thepainting, in the Philadelphia Museum of Art, was thought to have been made http://www.codart.nl/publications/show/chapter/5/

Beerstraten The church of St. Lawrence, Rotterdam Johannes Weissenbruch Family group as Caritas, with self-portrait Werner van den Valckert Religion Calvinism came to Holland in the Reformation, and captured the hearts of a small part of the population. Many of the Dutch, unhappy with the moral and material abuses of the Catholic church, were eager to join reformed churches, of which Calvinism was one. An estimated ten to twenty percent of the population became Calvinist in the sixteenth century, a figure that increased in later centuries, but never reached fifty percent. What distinguished Calvinism from other Protestant sects is that the others were either too extreme in their politics or too respectful of authority to gain much influence. Calvinism had the right mixture of rebelliousness and authoritativeness to replace Catholicism as a new orthodoxy. In the course of the 1560s and '70s, the governments of the Dutch cities underwent an 'alteration,' in which Catholic officeholders were replaced by Calvinists. (One English iconoclast of the 1640s, William Dowsing, kept a journal which contains calm, bureaucratic reports of activities that make our blood run cold. On January 6, 1643, he noted: 'We broke down about an hundred superstitious pictures and seven Fryars hugging a Nunn; and the Picture of God and Christ; and diverse others very superstitious... and we beat down a great stoneing Cross on the top of the Church.'

The Netherlands Office for Fine Arts, inv.nr.NK 1909 (on loan to the Groninger Museum). From the Goudstikker gallery ( see nr. 19 The young Tobias was sent by his father Tobit on a mission to his distant relative Raguel. Accompanied by the angel Raphael in disguise, he was able, arriving at his destination, to cure Raguel's daughter Sarah of a curse and claim her as his bride, along with half of Raguel's property. Upon the departure of Tobias and Sarah, Raguel blessed the couple, 'And Edna said to Tobias, "The Lord of Heaven bring you back safely, dear brother, and grant me to see your children by my daughter Sarah, that I may rejoice before the Lord. See, I am entrusting my daughter to you; do nothing to grieve her'" (Tobit 10:12). The book of Tobit has an appeal that goes beyond pure religion. Tobias's peregrinations in the company of an angel made him a guardian for all travelers, especially young ones, and the miracles he performed had something homely and comforting to them. The book was mistrusted by the Calvinists, however, who included it in the official Dutch Bible translation of 1636 only grudgingly. In art, it is most often depicted by artists with connections to the Mennonite and Catholic communities, who were especially attached to the book. In the 1620s and '30s, when Rembrandt was working closely with dissident Protestants in Leiden and Amsterdam, he painted subjects from Tobit several times. He, his pupils and associates turned to Tobit more frequently than any other group of Dutch painters.

The Kindertransport Journey: Memory into History A documentary exhibition tracing the rescue of 10,000 children from Nazi-occupied Europe Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion Museum One West 4th Street (between Broadway and Mercer Street), Manhattan September 13, 2001-January 4, 2002 Immediately after the "Kristallnacht" pogrom of November 9-10, 1938, British Jewry initiated the unique rescue operation that brought ten thousand unaccompanied children from Germany, Czechoslovakia, Austria, and Poland to safety in Britain prior to the outbreak of the Second World War in September 1939. Through photographs, letters, and artifacts, this exhibition records the personal bravery and individual odysseys of these child-witnesses to history. The Kindertransport Journey: Memory into History, a documentary exhibition tracing this rescue operation, will be on view at the Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion Museum in New York from September 13, 2001-January 4, 2002. After the "Kristallnacht" pogrom where German and Austrian Nazis killed 236 Jews, including children, burned and destroyed 260 synagogues, vandalized 7500 businesses and sent 30,000 men to concentration camps, the Jews of Britain initiated the unique rescue operation now known as "Kindertransport." With aid from Jewish as well as Quaker and other non-Jewish refugee organizations, they rescued 10,000 children. Most of the children were Jews, including infants carried by other children; most of the parents who had sent them to safety perished in the Holocaust.

The rest of the population's religion is Muslim, Roman Catholic and Jewish. Greece and Russia are the only countries to have such a proportion of people belonging to the Orthodox Church religion. The Orthodox Church forms the third largest branch of Christianity after the Roman Catholics and the Protestants. The founders According to the history of Orthodoxy, the first who came in Choose your destination Read more the Greek World to preach Christianity was St Paul in 49 AD. But, the real founder of Orthodoxy was the Emperor Constantine the Great. According to history, Constantine was converted to Christianity in the 4th century after a vision of the cross. Difference with other religions By the 8th century, the Pope of Rome and the patriarch of Constantinople started to argue on many points. One of the many differences of opinion opposing the both spirituals chiefs are: the celibacy of the clergy (priests in Rome had to be celibate whereas the orthodox priest could marry before becoming ordained), some differences in the way of fasting or over the wording of the Creed: for the Orthodox the Holy Spirit proceeds "from the Father" whereas Rome added "and the Son". That is how the "Greek Orthodox Church" appeared.

RAI Home Project Overview Research Projects Events ... Colloquia Videos Stewards of the Sacred Sacred Artifacts, Religious Culture, and the Museum as Social Institution Museums have traditionally affirmed their missions as the exhibition, preservation, and scholarly interpretation of objects. In the last two decades, these roles are expanding and being redefined. Because a significant proportion of the material collected in museums across the globe has religious significance, often in the context of living traditions, issues of religion are entering the museum conversation. Throughout the world, a resurgence of interest in spirituality and religion across societies and the renewed commitment to traditions and symbolic artifacts by many living traditions remind museum professionals that they may be, in a very real way, stewards of the sacred. As a public complement to Lawrence E. Sullivan's spring course "Designing a Conceptual Museum of World Religions," (offered in the Faculty of Arts and Sciences as Religion 1009 and the Harvard Divinity School as HDS 3323), and working in collaboration with the Harvard University Museums, Harvard's Center for the Study of World Religions will present a conference for museum directors and a public colloquium series focusing on these very issues. The colloquium series and conference are intended to serve Harvard University faculty and students, museum policy-makers, practitioners, academics, and area museum audiences. A secondary audience is equally important: information from the series and conference will be published and disseminated widely by the Center as a service to scholarly and cultural institutions including universities, large public museums, and small community museums.

RAI Home Project Overview Research Projects Events ... Artists-in-Residence Religion and the Arts Initiative: Project Overview During the years 2000 to 2004, the Center for the Study of World Religions at Harvard University has developed a constellation of research initiatives involving religion, the arts, and museums. Each initiative is one dimension of a wider long-term project culminating in the design of a conceptual Museum of World Religions. This ideal "museum" is conceived of as a new kind of institution, one not limited to the display of objects; it is a place for theater, music, dance, film, debate, and symposia, as well as exhibitions involving many types of media and material artifacts. The mission of the CSWR "museum" is to foster understanding of the diversity and richness of the world's religions in a multidisciplinary space for civic and social discourse—a holistic and broad vehicle of culture that includes attention to politics, performance, music, the media, economics, the healing arts, the plastic arts, literature, and debate in its exploration of the world's religions. Museums are intellectual spaces for interdisciplinary work on the world's religions. They are crossroads where research, education, and entertainment are all put on display in revealing ways. Cultural institutions such as museums are best conceived of as arenas for comparison and dialogue, and as such are part of the vital environment for research and teaching in the humanities.

34. Museums & Millennium : Everyday Religion Expressions of great religions in a multicultural society. http://www.mumi.org/religion/en/

The year 2000: for many, a magically charged temporal threshold. But for others, New Year's celebrations are observed at different times, depending upon the diverse calendars of the great world religions, viz. 1420... 1700... 2056... 5760. There are almost a million people living in Sweden today whose daily lives are strongly affected by religion. Almost every day of the calendar is related to some religious celebration: John the Baptist, who baptized Jesus, is celebrated by the church on Midsummer's Day. On Easter Day, the resurrection of Christ and the victory of life over death are celebrated. Diwali introduces the Hindu New Year, which is one of many religious festivals of light. Sri Guru Granth Sahib is a festival which is celebrated in honor of the sacred scripture of the Sikhs. Katina is one of the main Buddhist festivals and concludes the monks' three-month meditation and lengthy fast. The list of religious celebrations could go on and on. Yet Sweden is one of the world's most secularized countries. How should we learn to live together with our different world-views? How do we exchange conflict and mistrust for dialogue and mutual respect? The material in Everyday Religion was generously provided from the God Has 99 Names

Buddha symbolizes all love, compassion and wisdom. Buddha is surrounded by flowers offered during services. Buddhist prayer stone with sacred inscription.

The Buddhist calendar is connected more to culture and geography than to religion. According to Tibetan Buddhism, for example, the year 2000 coincides with our 2127. Losar, the Tibetan New Year, is celebrated in February with ceremonies and feasting for several consecutive days. The Tibetans also celebrate everyone's birthday at this time, as they do not observe individual birthdays.
