Ahmad Dahlan and the moderate, humanist, and non-sectarian Islam by Mohammad Hasan, Muhammad Taufiq

“…Based on a moderate understanding extracted from the Quran, hadith, and some scholars’ understanding, Dahlan is more suitable to be categorised as a moderate-humanist or middle Salafism figure rather than being categorised as a puritan-fundamentalist or right-wing Salafism figure as misunderstood by some, because of his thoughts and movements in the Islamic education, religious, social, economic, and political fields are more moderate, nonviolent, open, and visionary humanists than contemporary reformers in the country, so that their thoughts and movements inspire philanthropic actions in the Islamic education, social, economic, and politic fields that are far from radicalism and terrorism, and contrary to the modernist group’s thoughts and movements that exist today, especially with puritan fundamentalist groups.…”

Les ombres du polar by Benoît Tadié

“…By focusing on two notions, shadows and darkness, which are both prominent in US hardboiled/noir fiction from the1920s to the 1960s, this article offers two readings of the genre, as (1) the reenactment of an epic/shamanic narrative of incursion into the realm of the dead, or (2) the embodiment of the puritan ideology of predestination.
