Komparace filosofie Jana Amose Komenského a René Descarta / Comparison Philosophies of Jan Amos Komenský and René DescartesDobrovodská, Helena January 2015 (has links)
Comparison of Philosophies of Jan Ámos Komenský and René Descartes The aim of this work is comparison of philosophies of Jan Ámos Komenský and René Descartes based on their essential works, i.e."Labyrint světa a ráj srdce" (The Labyrinth of the World and the Paradise of the Heart) and "Úvahy o první filozofii" (Meditations on First Philosophy), in which God's existence and the difference between the human soul and body are proved. The philosophy of both contemporaries originated in the 17th century on the background of the Thirty Years' War and the Counter-Reformation. The rationalism of René Descartes, which starts Cartesian thinking, seems to be substantially different from the philosophy of Komenský based on Neoplatonism and Christianity. In the thought of Descartes analysis, mathematical operationalism, is principal, whereas Komenský synthesizes and puts the whole together. The first chapter of the thesis deals with the lives, period and works of Komenský and Descartes. It is possible to find significant similarities in their life stories. The second chapter deals with the interpretation of "The Labyrint of the World and the Paradise of the Heart" and the interpretation of "Meditations of First Philosophy", in which God's existence and the difference between the human soul and body are proved....

Establish justice in the land : rhetoric and theology of social justice in the book of AmosMamahit, Ferry Yefta 30 July 2010 (has links)
The aim of this research is to construct a biblical theology of social justice drawn specifically from the book of Amos. This is done on the basis of rhetorical analysis. The use of rhetorical analysis is considered to correspond with the genre of the selected texts analyzed (Am 2:6-8; 5:1-17; and 8:4-6), which are mostly rhetorical and relates to the issue of social justice in nature. The rhetorical criticism used in this research combines both diachronic and synchronic approaches, and consists of several steps such as dividing the rhetorical units, finding rhetorical situations, drawing rhetorical inventions, describing rhetorical dispositions and identifying rhetorical techniques. The analysis shows that the prophet Amos used a wide variety of literary devices to persuade his audience, the people of Israel, such as chiasm, rhetorical entrapment, oracle against the nations (OAN), N + 1 formula, inclusion and progression, woe oracle, dirge or lament, wordplay, hymn, wisdom techniques, imagery, sevenfold structure, cause-effect form of speech and “quoting what the accused have said.” These primary devices are utilized in the context or in the imagery of a courtroom. In this connection, Amos used the epideictic, judicial and deliberative rhetoric in order to bring his audience to the “divine court” for the religious and social sins that they have committed. These rhetorical devices function as a means of exposing a theological intention of the utterances of Amos, which is establishing justice in the land of Israel. The message of social justice is mainly based on the covenantal relationship between YHWH and his people, as seen in traditions of creation and redemption in the Old Testament, particularly in the Torah (the codes of law) and the former prophetic writings. The covenant calls for God’s people to love YHWH and to act socially just toward other fellow human beings. As a concept, this research proposes a triangular relational model. YHWH, as the theological angle must be independent, and his people, either the powerful (the political angle) or the powerless (the social angle), are dependent on him. Meanwhile, the powerful and the powerless are interdependent with each other. Keeping a balanced relationship among the angles means manifesting the ideal state of social justice in the land. This research shows that the covenant was broken by the Israelites when the powerful disobeyed YHWH and did social injustices toward other human beings. The powerful became independent both toward YHWH and the powerless. As a result, YHWH took responsibility and action to keep his covenant, and called his rebellious people back into repentance and obedience. In other words, justice must be maintained in the land of Israel. Such a divine decision was carried out in the context of the day of Lord (DOL), a day of either judgment or salvation. The option of death and life are offered to be chosen by the powerful. However, God’s people deliberately choose death, and, consequently, their end is near. YHWH himself definitely will defeat and exile them by using the mighty army of Assyria. / Thesis (PhD)--University of Pretoria, 2010. / Old Testament Studies / unrestricted

De la genèse de la pédagogie comme problème philosophiqueAudant, Lionel 24 August 2021 (has links)
Pédagogie et philosophie! deux concepts indissolublement liés. L'histoire de la pédagogie est inséparable de celle de la philosophie. Cependant, avec le progrès des sciences et des techniques, la fin du XXe siècle voit apparaître pour la première fois dans cette interdépendance des deux histoires, une cassure que les siècles précédents n'avaient pas connue. Comment retrouver actuellement les fondations philosophiques de la pédagogie et refaire l'unité des relations entre pédagogie et philosophie telles qu'elles ont émergé ensemble dans la pensée philosophique et pédagogique de Platon? Telle est la question principale de cette recherche. Ce travail s'inscrit dans le cadre d'une recherche à la fois pédagogique et philosophique. Il soulève la question de la dissociation possible entre la philosophie et la pédagogie. Il se situe dans le cadre de la philosophie de l'histoire et de la culture. Il commence par définir les concepts directeurs de la thèse en vue d'examiner les fondations philosophiques de la pédagogie. Le cadre méthodologique est construit à partir de la combinaison stratégique de deux approches analytique et synthétique mises en corrélation méthodique dans l'examen des idées concernant la genèse de la pédagogie. Cela ouvre la voie à une lecture nouvelle de cette genèse. On pourra ainsi mieux comprendre l'importance et le rôle actuel de l'enseignement de la philosophie et son apport fondamental aux autres disciplines des programmes de formation. Plusieurs figures et tableaux illustrent des thématiques particulières et permettent de mieux voir l'ensemble des éléments décrits dans l'analyse de ces thématiques. Si le sens premier de cette recherche est de retrouver les fondations philosophiques de la pédagogie, son objectif ultime est de contribuer à définir, à partir de ces fondations retrouvées, de nouvelles voies d'articulation entre la philosophie et la pédagogie dans ses modes d'expression culturels actuels. C'est en cela que consiste l'originalité de cette thèse.

The intricate relationship between politics and religion in the Hebrew bible : the prophet Amos as a case studyWax, Kevin Patrick 12 1900 (has links)
Thesis (PhD)--Stellenbosch University, 2013. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Politics, in modern society, has become intimately associated with poor governance, fraud and
corruption, social decay, abuse of power, indifference to the plight of the poor, squandering of
critical resources and self-enrichment. This situation has been further aggravated by the debate
that religion and politics should be kept separate at all costs. The demand for social justice in
marginalised communities has increased dramatically over the last few decades. The escalation
of human conflict, poverty, social inequality and corrupt practices across the globe over recent
years, demands a radical reassessment of how the human race engages politically, socially and
economically with each other.
Hebrew classical prophets such as Hosea, Amos, Isaiah and Micah have through their
messages of condemnation, indictment, punishment and hope confronted the serious political and
social challenges that prevailed during and subsequent to their time. They demonstrated immense
bravery against the established order of the day as they proclaimed Yahweh’s gross displeasure
and divine judgement for the manner in which those in power had treated the poor. Amos, in
particular, has captivated scholars over many decades as they dissected every emotion, historical
context, social structure, biblical tradition and literary convention in order to understand his
message.
This study is an attempt to re-evaluate the critical balance between politics and religion as
demonstrated in the divine mandate provided to kings, centuries ago in the ancient Near East, to
rule in a just and righteous manner. An examination of the role and function of the prophets,
their relationship with the political and religious structures of the day as well as an exegetical
study of selected Amos texts has been undertaken to determine how this social imbalance was
addressed by the prophets. A general hypothesis is advanced to restore this intricate balance
between modern politics and religion. The study further enables a theological re-evaluation of
how this balance could possibly be pursued as a potential catalyst for its overall social
restoration. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die politiek, in die hedendaagse samelewing, word nou geassosieer met swak regering, bedrog
en korrupsie, sosiale verrotting, misbruik van mag, onverskilligheid teenoor die ellende van die
armes, verkwisting van kritiese hulpbronne en selfverryking. Hierdie situasie word verder
vererger as gevolg van ‘n debat wat daarop aandring dat die politiek en die godsdiens ten alle
koste apart gehou moet word. Die aandrang vir sosiale geregtigheid in verarmde gemeenskappe
het dramaties toegeneem oor die laaste dekades. Die progressiewe toename in menslike konflik,
armoede, sosiale ongelykheid en omkopery wêreldwyd, die onlangse jare, vereis ‘n radikale herevaluering
oor hoe die mensdom met mekaar oor die weg kom polities, sosiaal en ekonomies.
Die Bybels-Hebreeuse profete soos Hosea, Amos, Jesaja en Miga het met hulle
boodskappe van aanklag, straf en hoop die ernstige politieke en sosiale uitdagings wat gedurende
hulle tyd geheers het gekonfronteer. Hulle het ongekende dapperheid gedemonstreer teen die
destydse owerhede en so Jahwe se intense ontevredenheid en goddelike oordeel verwoord
teenoor die swak behandeling van die armes. Amos, in die besonder, het geleerdes oor die
dekades bekoor en elke emosie, historiese agtergrond, sosiale struktuur, tradisie en literêre
konvensie is benut in ‘n poging om sy boodskap te verstaan.
Hierdie studie is ‘n poging om die sensitiewe balans tussen die politiek en die godsdiens
te her-evalueer in die lig van die beginsel van regverdige regering as goddelike mandaat wat
reeds eeue gelede aan konings van die ou Nabye Ooste opgedra is. ‘n Ondersoek na die rol en
funksie van die profete, hul verhouding met die politieke en godsdienstige strukture van hulle
tyd, sowel as ‘n eksegetiese studie van geselekteerde Amos tekste word onderneem om te bepaal
hoe hierdie sosiale onewewigtigheid hanteer is. ‘n Algemene hipotese word aan die hand gedoen
om die ingewikkelde balans tussen die moderne politiek en godsdiens te herstel. Die studie kan
verder van waarde wees deurdat dit ‘n teologiese herbesinning bied wat kan dien as ‘n moontlike
katalisator vir algehele sosiale restorasie.

The Educational Contributions of Dr. W.A. Criswell, Pastor of the First Baptist Church, Dallas, Texas, 1944-1987Rohm, Robert A. (Robert Allan) 08 1900 (has links)
Dr. W. A. Criswell is the well known pastor of the twenty-seven thousand member historic First Baptist Church in downtown Dallas, Texas. He has held the position for the past forty-three years. Until now no one has attempted an in-depth study of Criswell's educational contributions to the First Baptist Church (which have also been adopted into the Southern Baptist denomination, America's largest Protestant religious organization).
Although Criswell has been the Senior Pastor of the First Baptist Church of Dallas for many years, this was by no means his introduction to the pastorate. In 1928 he was ordained as a seventeen year old minister of the gospel in Amarillo, Texas. He has been a pastor for over sixty years.
Criswell has made a lasting impact on the church staff, school staff (Criswell College and First Baptist Academy), students in those schools, the Southern Baptist denomination and also the city of Dallas. He has been one of the key figures in evangelical national movements. Presidents, Vice-Presidents, Senators, and Governors are no strangers to a Sunday morning service held in the large sanctuary in downtown Dallas.
Much of the research for this project originated from the Oral Memoirs of W. A. Criswell. a program for oral history done by two professors (Charlton and Spain) from Baylor University.
The study begins with a historical review of the setting of the First Baptist Church in 1944 when Criswell came to be pastor. Next there is a review of Criswell's early life that reveal influences which molded his educational philosophies. The body of knowledge is then presented which points out significant events, contributions, institutions and associations provided by Criswell. Finally, seventeen conclusions are drawn from the data presented.
The study provides helpful information to pastors, church administrators, seminary students, theological professors and other individuals involved in education and administration.

Previous issue date: 2016-09-28 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo / On the contrary the pedagogical principles of Jan Amos Comenius, few studies have been made about his involvement with the purpose and usefulness of the new science.
However, based on the Via Lucis, book that Comenius wrote between 1641 and 1642 when he was in England due to the invitation of Samuel Hartlib and that dedicated to the Royal Society of London in 1668, this study allows to evaluate the interrelation between some Protestant presuppositions and natural philosophy seventeenth century.
So, wishing to collaborate with studies in History of Science, this research presents an analysis of the intercourse that pervade: the involvement of Comenius with the seventeenth-century England; the theological premises of the author that legitimizing his support and the Protestant participation in the development of new science; the method to capture, organize and disseminate the universal knowledge from the Comenius Pan-harmony.
All seems to indicate that this book of Comenius, rarely studied, not only focuses his dream of Universal Reformation, but the aroused expectations among the promoters of the new science, when he was in London. Such expectations also seem to reveal that both, Protestantism as the new science, longed for universal knowledge from the Nature investigation, the educational development, the social rigging and advancement of useful science / Ao contrário dos princípios pedagógicos de Jan Amos Comenius, poucos estudos têm sido produzidos acerca do seu envolvimento com o propósito e a utilidade da nova ciência.
No entanto, com base no Via Lucis, obra que Comenius escreveu quando esteve na Inglaterra a convite de Samuel Hartlib, entre 1641 e 1642, e que dedicou a Royal Society de Londres, em 1668, este estudo permite avaliar a inter-relação entre alguns pressupostos do protestantismo e a filosofia natural seiscentista.
Assim, desejando colaborar com os estudos em História da Ciência, esta pesquisa apresenta uma análise das relações que perpassam: o envolvimento de Comenius com a Inglaterra do século XVII; os pressupostos teológicos do autor que legitimavam o seu apoio e a participação protestante no desenvolvimento da nova ciência; o método de captação, organização e difusão do conhecimento universal a partir da Pan-harmonia de Comenius.
Tudo parece indicar que essa obra de Comenius, raramente estudada, não concentra apenas o seu sonho da Reforma Universal, mas as expectativas despertadas quando de sua estadia em Londres, junto aos promotores da, então, nova ciência. Tais expectativas, igualmente parecem revelar que tanto o protestantismo como a nova ciência anelavam pelo conhecimento universal a partir da investigação da Natureza, do desenvolvimento educacional, do aparelhamento social e do avanço de uma ciência útil

The place and role of tradition in the Nigerian novel : the examples of Amos Tutuola and John MunonyeDatondji, Cooyi Innocent January 1984 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to investigate the place and role of tradition in the Nigerian novel. For many years, in my attempt to find out some of the causes of the difficulties our countries are facing, I have come to suspect our traditions as being one major cause. In fact, this study has shown that our traditions, though supposedly destroyed by colonization, have retained many of their aspects which are cunningly at work in our societies, together with European traditions.Because the essential role of tradition is to define the present, we need to find out more about our traditions in order to know how we can best explore them for the advancement of our countries in a changing world.

Le modèle d'enseignement euro-canadien dans le pensionnat autochtone de Saint-Marc-de-Figuery: une étude historiqueCrytes, Geneviève 05 November 2013 (has links)
Cette thèse par article présente une étude de cas sur le pensionnat autochtone de Saint-Marc-de-Figuery au Québec, ouvert de 1953 à 1973 pour les jeunes autochtones de l’Abitibi (Algonquins) et du Lac-Saint-Jean (Attikameks). Elle porte principalement sur trois curriculums présents au pensionnat, soit le curriculum officiel, le curriculum enseigné et le curriculum caché.
Cette thèse s’inspire du paradigme de la critique transformative pour expliquer les relations de la politique colonisatrice et dominatrice au sein du système des pensionnats autochtones. Il s’agit d’une recherche qualitative fondée sur la méthode historique à partir d’une analyse de sources écrites et orales. Pour ce faire, j’ai consulté et analysé des documents (sources primaires et secondaires) disponibles et accessibles.
Les résultats se divisent en trois grands points. Le premier étant ce qui a été fait pour le pensionnat en tant que curriculum officiel par le gouvernement fédéral et les Pères oblats. Le second point touche la vie au pensionnat. C’est le point le plus long, car les trois curriculums y sont abordés. Du curriculum officiel et enseigné du gouvernement québécois découlent les programmes d’études, l’horaire et les matières enseignées. Pour cette étude, seule l’histoire a été retenue avec son programme et ses manuels scolaires. Le curriculum caché décrit les aspects dissimulés et indirects comme la perte d’identité, la honte d’être un autochtone et la langue obligatoire de la majorité de la province où se trouve le pensionnat. Le troisième point traite des conséquences ainsi que des effets négatifs et positifs en dehors du pensionnat. Le curriculum caché n’a pas seulement été vécu par les pensionnaires, mais aussi par leurs familles et leur entourage. Néanmoins, il ressort des aspects positifs une implication des pensionnaires dans la communauté et pour certains la poursuite d’études postsecondaires.
À la lumière des résultats, nous pouvons soutenir que le pensionnat de Saint-Marc-de-Figuery, comme institution scolaire des autorités canadiennes, fut à la fois assimilateur, acculturateur et formateur en voulant régler la problématique autochtone au pays.
