Media Research Fellow at Kirby Laing Institute in Cambridge

1st August 2018 By Jenny James Taylor

On 4 March 2019 Dr Jenny James Taylor steps into the role of Media, Communication and Journalism Fellow at the Kirby Laing Institute in Cambridge, part-time.

Based at Tyndale House, and run under the auspices of the Kirby Laing Institute for Christian Ethics, the Research Institute has been founded by new Director Revd Dr Craig Bartholomew, formerly  H. Evan Runner Professor of Philosophy at Redeemer University College in Canada.

Craig writes:  ‘Our dream is to develop KLICE, as part of Tyndale House, into a dynamic, international research centre in ethics, opening out into the University, the UK and further afield, which also produces first-rate materials at the accessible, popular level. As such, KLICE will become known for high level academic work, in the service of the church, and directed towards the flourishing of all creation. It will contribute towards an undoing of the eclipse of ethics that is central to the crisis of the West.’

Current aims include establishing the group through regular monthly meetings which develop the foundational aspects of research, and elevate the standard of our communal and individual work coram deo.

mmJENNY JAMES TAYLOR specialises in religious literacy and was appointed Research Fellow in Communication, Media and Journalism at the Kirby Laing Centre for Public Theology in Cambridge in 2019. A Bloomsbury author and campaigner she pioneered religious literacy in journalism, founding Lapido Media in 2005 as a publicly subscribed online newspaper and publisher. Described by historian Tom Holland as 'groundbreaking', it helped to change the national secular discourse by providing resources for journalists needing to ‘get religion’ in an age of globalization. Widely travelled, Taylor has a doctorate in religion from the School of Oriental and African Studies, and has been published many times in academic journals and the mainstream and on-line media including the Guardian, the Times and, in translation, the European press. Her books include Faith and Power: Christianity and Islam in ‘Secular’ Britain with Lesslie Newbigin and Lamin Sanneh (SPCK 1998 and Wipf&Stock 2005) and A Wild Constraint (Continuum 2008), an extended essay on contemporary sexuality. An Associate of the Community of St Mary the Virgin, she lives where she was born, in Suffolk.
