Princeton University's Elaine Pagels is about the nearest thing there is to a superstar in the realm of Christian history scholarship. It is largely through her work that many understand the early non-Orthodox Christianity that she at one point dubbed (and later un-dubbed, finding the term imprecise) the Gnostic Gospels.

...DESIGN SIGHT, Japan's first museum dedicated to the subject, on March 30 in Tokyo's megacomplex, Tokyo Midtown, in Roppongi. "Everything is design, from the things people take pleasure in, from gardens, scrolls, paintings and Kabuki, to the things people use."
