of texture and form as well as

Second grader Suzanne Tassen-
court’s wooden face with raised
features attests to this, as does
Sara Jackson’s ‘¢Mud Painting,’ a
more unusual approach to texture
in which a floral design in poster

of mud.

vocates the use of lines toexpress

conflict and unity -- sixth grader

Robbie Lippencott’s ‘*Bowling,’’
the representation of a bowler in
motion, resembling an open shutter
camera exposure, employs this
approach most dynamically, as
does Amy Willis’ ‘‘Head,’’ the
representation of aface from three
angles by the use of overlapping
lines.

Sittler Defines the Theologian’s Labor
As Revelant To The Changing World

___._by Karen Durbin _
Interfaith lecturer Wednesday

evening was Dr. Joseph Sittler,
speaking on ‘‘How a Theological

~ Problem-Opens.a Religious .Pos-

sibility; The Problem of Grace.’

=<‘ Dr, Sittler teaches at the Divinity
School

at the University of
Chicago.

Dr. Sittler, using the specific
problem of the doctrine of grace,
defined the labor of the theolo-
gian. He described him as working
from and in_ the ‘substance
and momentum of a tradition. As
the world changes and with it its
facts and theories and the images
and vocabulary used to explain
them, so must the theologian re-
interpret or “rehabilitate” tra-
ditional doctrine“in terms relevant
to the changing world.

Dr. Sittler noted that ‘‘grace’’ is
one of the most comprehensive
terms in theology. In Christianity,
it is generally defined as ‘‘the will
and disposition of God towards His
creation.’”? Using the. illustration

of St. Augustine’s explanation of
grace, which was accepted through :
the nineteenth century, Dr. Sittler .

described the problem encountered

by the modern theologian and how "

he re-interpreted the radtadaiosk in
modern terms.

The Augustinian theory is too 3
Substantial to relate to the present —

described as a fgrce which acts
aggressively on man, arising from
a source both preceding and sep-
arate from him. Man today un-
derstands himself and the world
in relational and operational,
rather than substantial, terms.

Dr. Sittler described man’s uni-
que position in the modern world
as operational: and powerful.
He can now see nature as ‘‘pathe-
tically open to his abuse.’’

The possibility arises as man

concept of the Ipfee witch is

recognizes the. fact that, although -

he, may now destroy the world

-as‘ he knows it, as the same time,

he is..an inseparable part of that
world and would thus’ destroy him-
self, Secondly, the possibility of
believing in and. obtaining grace
rests. with the degree to which
map realizes this relationship and
heace realizes that first, a self
alone is no self at all, and second,
that his selfhood is thus a func-

tioh of his existence with vom
