(U.K./U.S.) "INTERRELIGIOUS INSIGHT: A
Journal of Dialogue and Engagement." Quarterly. US$35 individuals,
US$60 institutions. First issue: January
2003. www.interreligiousinsight.orgcetta@seachanges.net
, 847-234-8047
"It represents a new publishing endeavour at a time of profound
transition in global relationships. A shared venture between three
interfaith groups, [the World Congress of Faiths (Oxford, UK), Common
Ground (a Chicago-based interreligious study center) and the new Interreligious
Engagement Project (US)]. It aims to transcend narrow interests by
providing a platform for reflecting with passion on many of the critical
issues facing our world. The name has been chosen with great care
in order to mirror an emerging task. Given that they have traditionally
acted as overarching worldviews, the religions have long been accustomed
to thinking of themselves as self-sufficient, each tradition happily
supplying its own separate vision of sacred truth. That era has now
passed. It is the space between convictions that commands more and
more of our attention. Maintained separately, the religions generate
particular insights and wisdom, some having been shaped by long histories
of cherished memory and some springing from more recent history. Yet
in a world where the religions jostle together, often clash and sometimes
cooperate, we are learning that the space between convictions is also
a space with its own challenging insight. Put differently: in sight
of one another we seek new ways of pursuing 'interreligious' wisdom;
and one might hope that the dawn of interreligious harmony is now
in sight....
"Interreligious Insight" aims to embody a new mood. The
argument for mutuality and interaction between varying religious voices
has been largely won. Dialogue and Engagement have begun, but we are
still in the foothills of the ascent. It is our hope that this journal
will both assist in the exploration of the mountain-slopes and communicate
something of the wonders that will be glimpsed. Its pages will provide
opportunities for hearing varying voices - voices crossing spiritualities,
spanning generations and embracing practitioners from many different
contexts around the world. We are all invited to share this moment
of global transition."
