    emergence seem to be that “[emergent] phenomena...are dependent upon
    but irreducible to their constitutive parts” (135) or that the phenomenon
    is “constituted by yet not completely reducible to” the lower level (95, cf.

    1–3: the term “angel” “signifi es the very real ethos or communal essence
    that either gives life to or works at destroying the spiritual fabric of the very
    community that gave birth to it,” (16). Though not interpreting them as
