In this study of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) in the United States, I use interview and observational data to demonstrate that ‘non-peaceful’ or ‘fighting’ Friends experience mitigated stigma within the group. I argue that the use of a variety of meanings of important symbols in the group helps to produce mitigated stigma. At the theoretical level, mitigated stigma is differentiated from full stigma by its often contested nature, its focus on concealable heterodoxy or hetero-praxis, the ambivalence people feel towards it and the group’s attenuated power to enforce it.

The 2014 national survey of Australian Quakers included two questions about application for Membership, with responses from 250 Members and 89 Attenders. This article summarises these views into 54 topics and 14 key themes, considers them in relation to various sociological perspectives and compares the results to those from previous surveys in Britain and the USA. The most common reasons for Membership application were feelings of belonging and wanting to commit, to make a public declaration, and a desire to take on responsibilities and contribute. The reasons Attenders did not apply included the belief that it was unnecessary, an inability to attend Meetings regularly, concerns about some Quaker processes – including the Member/Attender distinction – and an unwillingness to commit more time and support. Further education about the expectations for Membership and more personal invitations may assist in reducing the current decline in the ratio of Members to Attenders in Meetings in Australia and Britain.

O. Eissfeldt, E. Littmann
A Memorial Oration, pronounced before the University of Tubingen, over one of the most highly distinguished members whom that famous University has ever boasted. It is enough to repeat an opinion of Wellhausen's recorded in these pages that if Noldeke was the emperor of Semitists Littmann was the crown prince. Not merely had he a working life of unusual length, but an activity of astonishing breadth, and an intellectual grasp which made him a master in all the scientific subjects, especially the multifarious oriental and other languages, which that activity embraced. He taught at four German universities and one American, he went out with two epigraphical missions to Syria and was later called upon to lead the German Aksum Expedition. Out of all these came important publications in which Littmann took a leading part. And they were accompanied by a host of other writings upon subjects which, in the bibliography of his works, are arranged under no less than 14 heads, ranging from general linguistics and the Abyssinian languages (in which he was particularly at home) to gipsy lore and the Low German dialect. The author of these pages is at pains also to emphasize, in addition to the learning, the high humanity of Littmann, his appreciation of his colleagues, and his sympathetic character, which made him a welcomed as well as honoured guest in many lands.

Rhiannon Emma Louise Grant
This article explores the results of an online survey about the British Quaker use of ‘afterwords’ – a period of semi-programmed sharing or discussion after unprogrammed worship. It uses interaction ritual theory as created by Randall Collins and cultural-linguistic approaches to religion as theorised by George Lindbeck to discuss the ways in which British Quakers are using and reacting to ‘afterwords’. In particular, it considers the reasons why ‘afterwords’ are coming into use and the polarising effect this practice seems to have on the community. It concludes by offering a suggestion about what may be underlying current observations about ‘afterwords’.
