Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
The contribution of this book to the field of reconciliation is
both theoretical and practical, recognizing that good theory guides
effective practice and practice is the ground for compelling
theory. Using a Girardian hermeneutic as a starting point, a new
conceptual Gestalt emerges in these essays, one not fully
integrated in a formal way but showing a clear understanding of
some of the challenges and possibilities for dealing with the deep
divisions, enmity, hatred, and other effects of violence. By
situating discourse about reconciliation within the context of
Girardian thought, it becomes clear that like Peter who vowed he
would never deny Jesus but ended up doing it three times any of us
is susceptible to the siren call of angry resentment and
retaliation. It is with a profound awareness of the power of
violence that the emergence of mimetic discourse around
reconciliation takes on particular urgency.
