Tikrovės demitologizacija ir tapatybės paieškos Herkaus Kunčiaus, Kazio Sajos ir Vidmantės Jasukaitytės prozoje ("Ornamentas", "Nebaigtas žmogus", "Kai mes buvome vilkai") / The Demythologization of Reality and the Search for Identity in the Prose by Herkus Kunčius, Kazys Saja, and Vidmantė Jasukaitytė (Ornament, Unfinished Man, When we were Wolfs)

Jovaišienė, Diana 17 August 2009 (has links)
Šiame darbe nagrinėjama tikrovės (de)mitologizacija ir tapatybės paieškos Herkaus Kunčiaus romane „Ornamentas” (2002 m.), Kazio Sajos apsakymų rinkinyje „Nebaigtas Žmogus“ (2003 m.) ir Vidmantės Jasukaitytės romane „Kai mes buvome vilkai” (2007 m.). Minėti tekstai išleisti postsovietiniu laikotarpiu, gausiame permainų ir netikrumo. Analizei šie kūriniai pasirinkti todėl, jog šie autoriai – skirtingų kartų atstovai, todėl buvo įdomu apžvelgti, kaip jų kūryboje atskleistos individo tapatybės paieškos, kokius esminius dalykus jie akcentuoja, kaip mitologizuoja ar demitologizuoja tikrovę. Tekstai analizuojami taikant sociokritinį, mitopoetinį metodus ir postkolonializmo sąvokas. Šie metodai pasirinkti atsižvelgus į tekstuose vaizduojamą Lietuvos laikmetį – sovietinę ir postsovietinę Lietuvą. Analizuojant minėtus tekstus svarbus klausimas apie mito apraiškas šiuolaikiniame pasaulyje, jo santykį su šiuolaikiniu žmogumi ir jo gyvenimu. Šiandieninis mokslininkas stengiasi suprasti mitą, jį iššifruoti, nevertina jo kaip švento ir besąlygiškai teisingo pasakojimo. Išsiveržus iš mito jėgos atsiranda galimybė tikrajam švietimo procesui ir susidaryti tapatybei, atitinkamai specializavus mokslą, meną ir moralę. Literatūros tekstai pateikia skaitytojui pramanytus pasaulius, bet kartu ir demistifikuoja tikrovę, kurioje gyvena skaitytojas, išryškindami gyvenamos tikrovės mitologizuotą, fiktyvią prigimtį. Tikrovės transformacijos ir permainos literatūros tekstuose visuomet yra... [toliau žr. visą tekstą] / This paper explores the attempts of contemporary Lithuanian prose writers to (de)mythologize reality and construct identity in (post)Soviet Lithuania as manifest in Herkus Kunčius' novel Ornament („Ornamentas“) (2002), Kazys Saja's short story collection Unfinished Man („Nebaigtas žmogus“) (2003), and Vidmantė Jasukaitytė's novel When We Were Wolfs („Kai mes buvome vilkai“) (2007). These texts were published in the post-Soviet period, marked by radical changes and a high degree of uncertainty. They have been chosen as the focus of this analysis because their authors belong to three different generations, which allows for a comparison of the different ways of representing an individual's search for identity as well as of mythologizing or demythologizing reality. The analysis is based on sociocritical and mythopoetic methods and also draws on relevant postcolonial concepts. These methods have been chosen with regard to the setting of the selected texts, namely, Lithuania in the Soviet and post-Soviet periods. In the analysis of the selected texts, the aim is to foreground the significance of the myth in the contemporary world, particularly with regard to the contemporary individual and his/her life. A contemporary scholar seeks to understand and decipher the myth, as opposed to treating it as a sacred truthful story, to be taken for granted. Casting aside the sacred power of the myth allows for a real educational process as well as for a formation of identity if... [to full text]

HERMENÊUTICAS EM CONFLITO: PERSPECTIVAS DE MIRCEA ELIADE E RUDOLF BULTMANN SOBRE O MITO / Hermeneutics in conflict: Mircea Eliade and Rudolf Bultmann’s perspectives about the myth.

No. of bitstreams: 1 Sergio Cesar Prates.pdf: 1452123 bytes, checksum: 412e754c70bd63d7debc451b89bd4380 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2017-03-21 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES / The objective of this research is to address the distances that exist on Mircea Eliade and Rudolf Bultmann’s perspectives about the myth. As we investigate the issue of myth and its interpretations we find that there are many significant discussions about the theme. Among them, unquestionably, two stand out not because of their role over others, but because of the importance that this question plays in the thinking of their researchers, since it is practically impossible to disassociate the question from the myth on Mircea Eliade and Rudolf Bultmann’s thoughts. For Eliade the myth reveals that the world, human and life have a supernatural origin and story. This sacred story, besides being true, is significant, precious and exemplary, as it makes reference and brings meaning to the realities of a certain society to which the myth belongs. In contrast Bultmann notes a problem to be solved in the application of his hermeneutics: how to relate to the question of the myth present in the New Testament writings. The myth is a threat to the modern mind steeped in a scientific worldview. Myth and modern thought are totally excluding. What Bultmann insists on is the elimination of the conceptual universe of the New Testament so that the word of God can be understood by modern man. The myth, therefore, in Bultmann's conception is nothing more than a way of objectifying what is transcendent to the immanent, is to transform divine beings into humans. In this way, we will analyze the assumptions that led both to take different paths and construct opposite hermeneutics of the myth. And finally, to understand the repercussions of hermeneutical practices for contemporary religious thoughts. / O objetivo dessa pesquisa é abordar os distanciamentos que existem sobre as perspectivas de Mircea Eliade e Rudolf Bultmann acerca do mito. Ao investigarmos sobre a questão do mito e suas interpretações constatamos que existem muitas discussões significativas acerca do tema. Dentre elas inquestionavelmente duas se destacam, não pelo papel que exercem sobre as outras, mas pela importância que esta questão desempenha no pensamento de seus pesquisadores, pois é praticamente impossível desassociar a questão do mito do pensamento de Mircea Eliade e Rudolf Bultmann. Para Eliade o mito revela que o mundo, o homem e a vida possuem uma origem e uma história sobrenatural. Essa história sagrada além de verdadeira é significativa, preciosa e exemplar, pois faz referencia e traz significado às realidades de determinada sociedade a qual pertence o mito. Em contrapartida Bultmann constata um problema a ser resolvido na aplicação de sua hermenêutica: como se relacionar com a questão do mito presente nos escritos neotestamentários. O mito é uma ameaça à mente moderna mergulhada em uma cosmovisão científica. Mito e pensamento moderno são totalmente excludentes. Em que Bultmann insiste é na eliminação do universo conceitual do Novo Testamento para que a palavra de Deus possa ser compreendida pelo homem moderno. O mito, portanto, na concepção de Bultmann nada mais é do que uma forma de objetivar o que é transcendente para o imanente, é transformar seres divinos em humanos. Desta forma, analisaremos os pressupostos que levaram ambos a tomarem caminhos distintos e construírem hermenêuticas opostas do mito. E por fim, entender as repercussões de suas práticas hermenêuticas para o pensamento religioso contemporâneo.

Historie, fikce a ideologie: analýza románu Salaì má pochyby / History, Fiction and Ideology: Analysis of the Novel "The doubts of Salai"

Švantner, Michal January 2013 (has links)
This thesis analyzes the historical novel The Doubts of Salaí in terms of purpose, which the authors have clearly declared in the study attached to the novel. This purpose is both to ridicule the excessive confidence in the pulp and obvious fakes, and literary demythologization of myths - associated primarily with the Pope Alexander VI., Leonardo da Vinci, renaissance humanists or Tacit's Germania - which have settled in the historical discourse. Thus the thesis, through the narratological analysis, examines the procedures that are used within these purposes, and notes the implications for theories of the historical and literary discourses relationship. It also shows that in the final study the authors perpetrate historical objectivism and do not reflect the literariness of their own text. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Velké americké mýty: Budování národa a politika identity ve Spojených státech amerických / Great American Myths: Nation-Building and Identity Politics in the United States of America

Pyshkin, Dmitry January 2021 (has links)
This thesis attempts to analyze the American Thesis, also the American Creed or the American Ideology (the terms as used by Anatol Lieven in America Right or Wrong: An Anatomy of American Nationalism) as the United States` national identity. In interaction with a set of national myths, the American Thesis constitutes the narrative of US America`s identity, the nation`s 'common sense' and morality. The thesis begins with the definition of the phenomenon of the nation as a political and cultural community, then proceeds to discuss the specific contexts from which the narrative image of the US nation emerged. Next, the thesis studies the American Creed as the cultural instrument of fostering social cohesion and assimilating uncanonical dissent. Finally, the myths of US nationalism are analyzed in the context of their narrative structure and affective dynamics which account for the ontological and emotive power of the American Thesis. Key words: the USA, US nationalism, the American Creed, myth, nation-building, national identity

行在淨土,解在唯識:近代東亞佛教的解神話詮釋學 / Demythologizing Amitābha: A Consciousness-Only Hermeneutics of Pure Land Buddhism in Modern East Asia

孫亞柏, Jakub Zamorski Unknown Date (has links)
此文獻以淨土佛教中的解神話化爭議來闡述更為廣泛的議題,意即,西方人文學科的分類(在此則特指宗教哲學)是否、以及在何種程度上,對於識別和解釋現代東亞知識發展有所助益? 在序章中,已對此一普遍議題對當代淨土佛教研究如何產生影響有所說明。該領域長期以來受到日本學者—特別是被歸類為所謂「宗學」的日本淨土教派的學者們—所左右。毋庸置疑地,這些學者們所用以談論淨土傳統的思想框架,強烈地受到19世紀末日本面對西方哲學、神學之衝擊所影響。然而,近幾年來,部分西方學者認為,這樣的觀點並不適用於中國淨土佛教的情況,因為在中國,淨土宗並非一有系統之思想內容,而僅是作為虔誠與儀式實踐。本論文將以不同的切入點來探討此爭議。本文關注於:當淨土信仰與實踐被置於「佛教詮釋學」中的爭議來論述時,意即,以較為精練的方法論來詮釋文本時,西方化的思想框架是否能夠充分地呈現這些佛經的「詮釋者」們最初的關懷。 本文所關注的議題,在於部分佛教現代主義者借助唯識思想來詮釋淨土信仰之傾向。如同在本書頭二章所敘述的,部分日本淨土「宗學家」將此種解讀歸類為將淨土佛教「解神話化」。在此,解神話被理解為對淨土神話的批判性詮釋,並以此回應現代化與西方化。此種詮釋亦被認為是回歸到淨土神話「真正的」意義,意即,阿彌陀佛實為內在真理之象徵,而非外存之他者。然而,如同第四章所述,在近代中國,以唯識學詮釋淨土教義的方法論發展,乃是對現代化之前、以及現代化早期所產生的、懸而未決之爭議的反動,而不僅是西方衝擊之下的產物。而如同第五章中所論及的,這些尚未塵埃落定的爭議其中之一,便是所謂「自性彌陀」是否應被理解為真正的救世主;又或者,其應當被視為嚮導、老師。 在接續的章節中,筆者將著重於特別選定的若干核心材料,藉以呈現前述之中國佛教徒開始大量接受現代西方概念後所發展出來的詮釋學爭論。第六章探討由19世紀在家學者沈善登所撰寫的論著《報恩論》之殘篇。就筆者所知,《報恩論》為可知成書年代的漢語文獻中,最早從「現代」觀點來檢視淨土宗與唯識學的關係之著作,意即,該類撰文者普遍熟知後啟蒙時代的西方觀點。第七章則分析中、日對於適切理解淨土宗解脫敘述的爭論。該爭論為1899年至1901年間,楊文會與淨土真宗的一組僧人,即小栗栖香頂和内記龍舟,之間的筆戰。此處所關注之抄本收載了楊文會對唯識思想與淨土信仰的關係最為早期之書面表態,意即,其堅信淨土信仰應當與唯識思想之研修相互連結。雖已有部分學者對該爭論進行研究,然而,此一特殊面向卻尚未引起太多關注。為了進一步解析前述之發展於民國初期的概念,第八章將以唐大圓之選文作為研究實例。作為改革派在家居士,唐大圓主要活躍於20至30年代之間,亦為西方概念匯聚之時期。本章不僅剖釋唐大圓之銘言:「行在淨土,解在唯識」,亦將闡述此奠基於唯識思想之「解」如何在對同期淨土傳統、特別是對法藏菩薩之神話理解的批評中,揭示呈顯出來。 最後,第九章將總結主要考察成果,並提出未來深入研究之可行方向。在第九章,筆者主張唯識思想為漢傳佛教提供了統一的準則來理解淨土神話,而此方式與兩種傳統解讀大相逕庭,意即,其並非彷彿單純的奉獻者一樣,照字面地將阿彌陀佛與淨土理解為「心外」之物,亦非如學院派讀法一般,將阿彌陀佛等同於心性。淨土信仰的唯識學詮釋能夠支持將阿彌陀佛視為人類社群的「啟發的領導者」此一現代想像;同時,其亦得以將佛教思想與現代對理想社會和社群發展的理念相互連結。

Vzkříšení Ježíše z Nazaretu jako otázka hermeneutická / Resurrection of Jessus of Nazareth as a Question of Hermeneutics

Mašatová, Nina January 2016 (has links)
The thesis deals with the message of the resurrection of Jesus of Nazareth, which is crucial for Christianity and its relevant hermeneutical approach. In the first chapter we analyze the contemporary hermeneutical context of the message within the Hellenistic and Hebrew cultures. In the second chapter we present an analysis of pre-Pauline faith confessions, Paul's texts and synoptic Gospels focused on targeted formulating of the message for respective communities and their cultural background. The last chapter wants to present some contemporary relevant hermeneutical approaches to this message. One of them could be the so called mythmaking, which emphasizes the necessity of permanent updating of accepted opinions, messages and realities. We can observe the mythmaking process already with the New Testament authors and each and also our generation is expected to bring the message about the resurrection of Jesus of Nazareth to future generations in a relevant way.

“A Bunch of Grapes" : a reading of Lindsey Collen’s The Rape of Sita

Gillman, Natalie B 23 October 2007 (has links)
This feminist analysis addresses Lindsey Collen’s intertextual use of myth in The Rape of Sita and how her reformation of the parodied texts becomes a resistance to patriarchy. Collen’s examination of possible counteractions against patriarchy is analysed and it is determined whether or not she posits writing, especially demythologization, as the best resistance to patriarchal discourse. Also, her assertion that transformation and a unity of the sexes are needed to bring about equality is studied. The methodology used is qualitative and inductive. The sources are examined and interpreted through close-reading strategies which reveal the complexities of the text and the way in which Collen subverts myth. Classical and Hindu myths and other texts, such as T.S. Eliot’s The Waste Land, are re-read and re-examined to investigate to what extent they have challenged or championed patriarchal ideology, through which it is hoped that a greater understanding of the way in which mythology contributes to attitudes to rape is gained. Three other texts dealing with rape are also studied, in order to better place Collen’s novel in context of the genre. Primarily, feminist criticism, particularly with an African feminist viewpoint, is used. However, because a conflation of post-colonial and postmodern approaches is embedded within feminism, these concepts are dealt with also. Theorists drawn upon include Michel Foucault, Roland Barthes, Mircea Eliade and Margaret Atwood. / Dissertation (MA (English))--University of Pretoria, 2007. / English / MA / unrestricted

La deuxième venue du Seigneur (parousie) d'après Paul et son application dans la théologie contemporaine

Calderon, Mario Francisco 08 1900 (has links)
Le présent mémoire a comme sujet l'analyse et la caractérisation de la pensée de Paul sur la parousie (la deuxième venue du Seigneur) et l'étude de l'interprétation de cette pensée dans la théologie contemporaine,telle que représentée par Rudolf Bultmann, tenant de la démythologisation, et les théologiens de la libération Ignacio Ellacuria et Jon Sobrino. Les éléments clés de la parousie sont décrits principalement en Matthieu 25,31-46, 1 Cor 15,20-28, 1 Thess 4,13-18, 2 Thess 2,1-12. D'après Paul, « Le Seigneur, au signal donné, à la voix de l'archange et au son de la trompette de Dieu, descendra du ciel ». La principale question du mémoire porte sur cette vision paulinienne: Est-ce que la deuxième venue du Seigneur d'après la description paulinienne est encore crédible pour l'homme contemporain ou est-ce qu'il s'agit d'un élément mythologique non essentiel à la foi chrétienne? Bultmann considère que la parousie est un mythe : à ce jour, la parousie ne s'est pas produite, et elle ne se produira jamais. Le kérygme est le seul élément que Bultmann considère comme valide. « The kerygma is the proclamation of the decisive act of God in Christ ». Par contraste, Ellacuria est d'avis que l'élément eschatologique est essentiel pour comprendre l'histoire, car cette dernière est orientèe vers la fin. De manière analogue, Sobrino présente le Royaume de Dieu comme étant un élément clé de l'eschatologie. La théologie de la libération présente également la parousie comme un élément à venir qui représente l'implantation intégrale du Royaume de Dieu et qui devrait se comprendre comme une perspective eschatologique au-delà de l'imagerie de la parousie. / The subject of this thesis is the analysis and the characterization of Paul's doctrine on the parousia (the second coming) of Jesus, and the study of the interpretation of the parousia by the contemporary theologians, such as Rudolf Bultmann, the representative of the demythologization and the theologians of the liberation, Ignacio Ellacuria and Jon Sobrino. The key elements of the New Testament's doctrine of the parousia are described in Matthew 25,31-46, 1 Cor 15,20-28,1 Thess 4, 13-18 and 2 Thess 2,1-12. According to Paul, « There will be the shout of command, the archangel's voice, the sound of God's trumpet, and the Lord himself will come down from heaven ».The key question is: What do the contemporary men and women think of this doctrine? Is the second coming of Jesus according to Paul's description still believable to contemporary persons or is it rather a mythical element non essential to the Christian faith? Bultmann sees the parousia as a mythical issue. The parousia has not happened until now, and it will never occur. The only element that Bultmann proposes as valid is the kerygma. « The kerygma is the proclamation of the decisive act of God in Christ ». Ellacuria on the contrary, believes that the eschatological element is essential to understand history, which itself is oriented towards the end of time. Sobrino in a similar way, proposes the Kingdom of God as a key element of the eschatology. The theology of liberation presents as well the parousia like a future event, representing the integral implementation of the Kingdom of God, which should be understood as an eschatological perspective going further than the imagery of the parousia.

Pentecostal and postmodern hermeneutics: comparisons and contemporary impact

Noel, Bradley Truman 30 November 2007 (has links)
The focus of this practical theological study is Pentecostalism, and the relationship between the hermeneutics of Pentecostalism and Postmodernism. Through a literary search, we observe the points of congruency between the hermeneutics of early Pentecostals and the key tenets of Postmodernism. We note the unprecedented acceptance of Pentecostal scholars into the larger theological world and question whether this is a result of the increased Modernization of Pentecostal hermeneutics. The Postmodern world of youth is explored, and we observe their tremendous openness to spirituality. This thesis will show that Pentecostals may contribute to the Christian world a Pentecostal hermeneutic that will speak a relevant message to generations of youth. Chapters two and three examine the convergent viewpoints of Pentecostalism with Postmodernity, in terms of rationalism, narratives, and the place of experience in life and theology. Chapter four highlights the hermeneutical debate between Gordon D. Fee and his Pentecostal responders, noting the Modern approach in the principles debated. Chapter five seeks to provide interaction with a giant of theology seldom engaged by Pentecostals - Rudolf Bultmann - and his modern followers, and explores the world of Postmodern youth. Chapter six explores the work of Kenneth Archer, who has proposed a specific Pentecostal hermeneutical approach, and chapter seven discusses the role of the Holy Spirit in hermeneutics, including whether Pentecostal experience may be considered an ”edge” in hermeneutics. Chapter eight summarizes the findings of this study. / Practical Theology / D. Th (Practical Theology)
