The origins, development and meaning of the figure Urizen in the poetry, prophecies and graphic art of William BlakeLarrissy, Edward January 1980 (has links)
The thesis examines Urizen in relation to Blake's intellectual, religious and artistic background. The ideas of jealousy, possessiveness and the cruelties of Kings and Priests are already present in early Blake. These various kinds of restriction contribute to the notion of the 'bounded', the sources of which are traced to empirical philosophy, though it has a very wide reference in Blake. It is central to the meaning of Urizen, whose name probably derives from a Greek verb meaning 'to bound, limit'. But Blake also believed in firm outline. Is this not a limit? The difference between the two notions of 'bound' is examined, with reference to the Neoplatonists: the contrast is very close to that between the 'mechanic'and the 'organic'. Urizen develops in relationship with his antagonists, Ore and, more subtly, the Bard. Ore and Urizen are both described in terms of the serpent and Satanic imagery, which suggests that they are part of the same malaise. The Bard looks like Urizen, for the Priest derives from the Poet, as Blake would have learned from contemporary primitivist writers. Urizen, like the Priest, abstracts the Infinite from the world of Forms. The sources of this idea are to be found in Fludd and the Gnostics. The Ore-cycle finds its fullest expression in Vala. Blake may have thought of Urizen and Ore as the opposed poles of the cycle of Melancholy and Mania: Urizen owes much to the iconography of Saturn and Melancholy. It is this cycle of alternating and divided Reason and Energy which Blake now thinks the true evil: Satan the Selfhood. There are many alchemical sources for a divided Satan, such as we see in the guises of Urizen and Luvah in Illustrations of the Book of Job. But Blake also comes to value the qualities of a redeemed Urizen, who had always had the grandeur of the Creator about him. The Priest may become the Bard again, as in the Job illustrations; or to put it another way: the 'bounded' may become Living Form.

Aspects of aspectual verbs in English and RussianMellor, Martin D. January 1995 (has links)
This thesis develops a theory of a spectual interpretation based on a representation of eventuality reference which is implicit in any sentence uttered in natural language. Language users categorise real world events into various types, termed aspectual class, and these event types can be identified by diagnostic tests,which rely on inferences between sentences and co-occurence with certain temporal adverbials and other aspectual forms.

A NEW RETINAL MODEL AND ITS APPLICATION TO THE COMPUTER ANALYSIS OF AERIAL PHOTOGRAPHSSadowski, Alexander M. 10 1900 (has links)
QC 351 A7 no. 70 / In order to find a new and more economical method for the computer detection of object outlines in aerial photographs, the human visual system is considered. This leads to the concept of the human retina as a matrix of light receptors and permits the development of a three-stage retinal process. The first stage consists of the registering of the intensity distribution of the image. The second and third stages consist of operations that are analogous to the mathematical calculations of the first and second derivatives. This process is applied to the retinal matrix in a line-by-line method in two orthogonal directions. This retinal model is tested experimentally and applied successfully to two photo- graphs. The computer program that generates and performs the retinal three-stage process does so with a minimum of computer decisions, resulting in a highly efficient use of computer time. The successful application of this retinal model and its inherent economy of operation demonstrate its potential usefulness in the computer analysis of aerial photographs.

The novels of Paul Heyse : a critical studyMinns, Christopher John January 1984 (has links)
Paul Heyse (1830-1914) is a writer who, despite achieving considerable celebrity in his own age, has since failed to stand the 'test of time'. The aim of this thesis is to account, by means of a study of his novels, for his former importance and subsequent neglect. The last critical work to appear on Heyse's novels was Gustav Kemmerich's <u>Paul Heyse als Romanschriftsteller</u> (1928), which is mainly concerned with Heyse's style and with the influences shaping his technique as a novelist. My own monograph concentrates rather on the thematic structure of the novels: my description of works with which I cannot assume the reader's prior acquaintance is necessarily a detailed one. I adduce material from Heyse's correspondences and examine the reception of the novels in contemporary journals. The principal theoretical question discussed is the distinction between the Heysean Roman and Novelle. I then analyze the narrative techniques of the novels; consider the relationship of the works to the tradition of Realism; and try to account for the function of the love interest. The central chapters which investigate the novels' idea content show Heyse to be a moral subjectivist, strongly opposed to the heteronomy of Church and State; and an unashamed élitist in his opposition to literary Naturalism and his cult of 'high art'. For all their social and aesthetic criticism, the novels remain, with their emphasis on the self-fulfilment of the hero, in the tradition of the Bildungsroman. Their popularity was due to those features which had ensured Heyse's success in the Novelle. Their historical importance and present-day interest lie principally in the way in which they formed a vehicle whereby topical and controversial ideas were disseminated amongst a wide reading public.

The Development of Criteria for the Design of an Ideal Environment for InterpretationElkins, William David 12 1900 (has links)
The problem with which this study was concerned was the development of criteria for design of an environment for interpretation. The study analyzed the art of interpretation as a communicative process, derived criteria for design from the spatial requirements indicated by the analysis, and presented a sample design based on the criteria.
