The latest issue of The Yale ISM Review: "Beatitudes"

November 28, 2018

We are excited to announce the publication of the latest issue of The Yale ISM ReviewVolume 4, No. 2 centers on the theme of the Beatitudes. 

Editor Rita Ferrone writes: 

“Our fall issue centers on the theme of the Beatitudes, a classic text of the Christian tradition taken from Jesus’s Sermon on the Mount in the Gospel according to Matthew. At once challenging and inspiring, the Beatitudes raise many questions: What does it mean to be blessed? Who are the blessed? Do we really find blessing in poverty and meekness, purity of heart, hunger for justice, peacemaking, persecution? How does one live into the vision held forth by the Beatitudes? We hope that by exploring these questions along with our contributors, you may arrive at new insights that will enrich your experience of sacred music, worship, and the arts. If you like what you see here, please share this publication with others. Subscription is free of charge and open to all.”
