The concept of discipline : poetry, rhetoric, and the Church in the works of John MiltonWhite, Edmund C. January 2013 (has links)
Discipline was an enduring concept in the works of John Milton (1608-1674), yet its meaning shifted over the course of his career: initially he held that it denoted ecclesiastical order, but gradually he turned to representing it as self-willed pious action. My thesis examines this transformation by analysing Milton’s complex engagement in two distinct periods: the 1640s and the 1660s-70s. In Of Reformation (1641), Milton echoed popular contemporary demands for a reformation of church discipline, but also asserted through radical literary experimentation that poetry could discipline the nation too (Chapter 1). Reflecting his dislike for intolerant Presbyterians in Parliament and the Westminster Assembly, the two versions of The Doctrine and Discipline of Divorce (1643 and 1644) reconsider discipline as a moral imperative for all men, rooted in domestic liberty (Chapter 2). Although written long after this period, the long poetry that Milton composed after the Restoration reveals his continued interrogation of the concept. The invocations of the term ‘discipline’ by Milton’s angels in Paradise Lost (1667) sought to encourage dissenting readers to faithfulness and co-operation (Chapter 3). Paradise Regained and Samson Agonistes (1671) advance the concept in the language of ‘piety,’ emphasising that ‘pious hearts’ are the precondition for godly action in opposition to contemporary Anglican ‘holy living’ (Chapter 4). In analysing Milton’s shifting concept of discipline, my thesis contributes to scholarship by showing his sensitivity to contemporary mainstream religious ideas, outlining the Christian—as opposed to republican or Stoic—notions of praxis that informed his ethics, and emphasising the disciplinary aspect of his doctrinal thought. Overall, it holds that in discipline, as word and concept, Milton expressed his faith in the capacity of writing to change its reader, morally and spiritually.

The effects of attachment relationship and filial piety on career commitment process of Chinese university students / CUHK electronic theses & dissertations collectionJanuary 2014 (has links)
Based on the attachment theory (Bowlby, 1969) and the dual filial piety model (Yeh, 1997, 2003), this study aimed at investigating the effects of the attachment relationship and filial piety on career commitment process of Chinese university students. One thousand one hundred and seventy-twelve (N=1172) Chinese university students from three different regional Chinese groups participated in this study. These three regional groups included the Hong Kong local students (called Hong Kong group; n=421), Chinese mainland students studying in Hong Kong (called Hong Kong Mainland group; n=397) and the Chinese mainland students from Beijing (called Beijing group; n=354). The participants completed questionnaires measuring the attachment relationship towards fathers and mothers, filial piety (reciprocal and authoritarian types), and career commitment process (vocational exploration and commitment and tendency to foreclose). / Based on the MANOVA and ANOVA analyses, main effects of gender and regional group on attachment, filial piety and career commitment were found in this study. For gender differences, female scored significantly higher on the mother attachment and the reciprocal filial piety while male scored significantly higher on the tendency to foreclose. For regional group differences, the Hong Kong Mainland group and Beijing group scored significantly higher on the father attachment, mother attachment and the reciprocal filial piety than the Hong Kong group. The Hong Kong group scored significantly higher on tendency to foreclose than the Hong Kong Mainland group. The Beijing group scored significantly higher on tendency to foreclose than the Hong Kong Mainland group. / Three hypothesized models were proposed to explore the relationships among attachment relationship, filial piety and career commitment process. Structural equation modeling was conducted and found that the proposed models met the predetermined overall fit criteria and fit well across the total sample, the gender groups and the three regional subgroups (Hong Kong, Hong Kong-Mainland, and Beijing). Finding from the structural equation modeling analysis showed that only mother attachment marginally predicted the tendency to foreclose. In addition, the current findings showed that only authoritarian filial piety negatively predicted vocational exploration and commitment and positively predicted tendency to foreclose. / The theoretical, research and counseling implications of the findings, as well as future research directions are discussed. / 建基於依戀理論(Bowlby, 1969)及雙孝道模型(Yeh, 1997, 2003),本研究旨在探討依戀關係及孝道觀念如何影響大學生之職業選擇承諾,一千一百七十二位大學生參與是次研究,包括四百二十一位來自香港的大學生,三百九十七位來自中國而於香港大學就讀的大學生及三百五十四位於北京就讀大學的大學生。學生以問卷方式回答有關探討依戀關係,孝道觀念及職業選擇承諾之量表。研究結果顯示,性別及地區組別於依戀關係,孝道觀念及職業選擇承諾是有顯著分別;母親依戀能預測封閉傾向,權威性孝道能預測承諾傾向及封閉傾向。另外,結構模型分析顯示本文所提出之模型於總組別,性別組別及地區組別能達致預設的滿意擬合結果。最後,對本研究在生涯理論實證研究及輔導實踐的意義進行了闡述,並對未來研究方向作出了展望。 / Hon, Suet. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2014. / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 124-140). / Abstracts also in Chinese; appendixes includes Chinese. / Title from PDF title page (viewed on 03, January, 2017). / Detailed summary in vernacular field only.

Previous issue date: 2011-10-11 / The objective of this work is making a critical analysis of the Divine Office of
Communities, which is a proposal for the Liturgy of the Hours inculturated.
The Divine Office of Communities, for over two decades of existence, has been a
reference to communal prayer, which unites the richness of the ancient tradition of prayer of
the Hours of the Church and the faith experiences of ecclesial communities, in dialogue with
popular piety.
The background motivation of this work is the realization of the need for a deeper
critical analysis of the Divine Office of Communities.
Specifying: the first part, offers an overview of the Divine Office of Communities,
remembers its history, presents briefly the Hours of Office, its structure and elements,
gestures and symbolic actions, music, ministries in the celebration of the craft and elements of
inculturation found therein.
The second part, which is the body of work consists of two phases: the description of
instrumental analysis and application of this instrumental.
The third part is devoted to the practice of the Divine Office of the Communities,
their celebratory practice: some reports are presented to communities, groups and many
people who celebrate this Office in the community or pray in private.
We conclude that, truly, the Divine Office of Communities is a valuable proposal for
Liturgy of the Hours inculturated and deserve to be approved by CNBB and recognized by the
Apostolic See, as an alternative book Liturgy of the Hours for the people / O objetivo do presente trabalho é fazer a análise crítica do Ofício Divino das Comunidades,
que é uma proposta de Liturgia das Horas inculturada. A primeira publicação deste livro litúrgico
brasileiro data de 1988, e o mesmo já se encontra em sua décima quarta edição (2007).
O Ofício Divino das Comunidades, ao longo de mais de duas décadas de existência, vem
sendo uma referência de oração comunitária, que une as riquezas da antiga tradição da Oração das
Horas da Igreja e as experiências de fé das comunidades eclesiais, em diálogo com a piedade popular.
Este Ofício devolveu ao povo simples a possibilidade de celebrar no ritmo das horas, como o era nos
primeiros séculos.
A motivação de fundo desta tese foi a constatação da necessidade de uma análise crítica mais
profunda do Ofício Divino das Comunidades. Maria da Penha Carpanedo, que pertence à equipe que
elaborou este Ofício, e se dedicou, desde o início, e continua se dedicando à divulgação do mesmo, se
ocupou de seu estudo, em sua dissertação de Mestrado intitulada: Ofício Divino das Comunidades,
Liturgia das Horas inculturada (2002). No presente trabalho, analisa-se criticamente este Ofício,
levando também em consideração a sua prática celebrativa.
Especificando: na primeira parte, oferece-se uma visão de conjunto do Ofício Divino das
Comunidades: recorda-se a sua história, apresenta-se brevemente as Horas deste Ofício, sua estrutura e
elementos, seus gestos e ações simbólicas, a música, os ministérios na celebração do Ofício e os
elementos de inculturação que nele se encontram.
A segunda parte, que é o corpo do trabalho, compõe-se de dois momentos: a descrição do
instrumental de análise e a aplicação deste instrumental. O referencial teórico do primeiro momento é
a tradição da Liturgia das Horas, a sua história ao longo dos séculos. No segundo momento, aplica-se
o instrumental de análise ao Ofício Divino das Comunidades; confronta-se, compara-se a sua estrutura
e os seus elementos com a tradição da Liturgia das Horas.
A terceira parte do trabalho é dedicada à práxis do Ofício Divino das Comunidades, à sua
prática celebrativa: são apresentados alguns relatos de comunidades, grupos diversos e pessoas que
celebram este Ofício em comunidade ou o rezam em particular.
Conclui-se que, verdadeiramente, o Ofício Divino das Comunidades é uma proposta valiosa de
Liturgia das Horas inculturada, merecendo ser aprovado pela CNBB e reconhecido pela Sé Apostólica,
como livro alternativo de Liturgia das Horas para o povo

The Cistercian Abbey of Coupar Angus, c.1164-c.1560Hodgson, Victoria Anne January 2016 (has links)
This thesis is an examination of the Cistercian abbey of Coupar Angus, c.1164-c.1560, and its place within Scottish society. The subject of medieval monasticism in Scotland has received limited scholarly attention and Coupar itself has been almost completely overlooked, despite the fact that the abbey possesses one of the best sets of surviving sources of any Scottish religious house. Moreover, in recent years, long-held assumptions about the Cistercian Order have been challenged and the validity of Order-wide generalisations disputed. Historians have therefore highlighted the importance of dedicated studies of individual houses and the need to incorporate the experience of abbeys on the European ‘periphery’ into the overall narrative. This thesis considers the history of Coupar in terms of three broadly thematic areas. The first chapter focuses on the nature of the abbey’s landholding and prosecution of resources, as well as the monks’ burghal presence and involvement in trade. The second investigates the ways in which the house interacted with wider society outside of its role as landowner, particularly within the context of lay piety, patronage and its intercessory function. The final chapter is concerned with a more strictly ecclesiastical setting and is divided into two parts. The first considers the abbey within the configuration of the Scottish secular church with regards to parishes, churches and chapels. The second investigates the strength of Cistercian networks, both domestic and international. Through the exploration of these varied aspects, this study demonstrates that while Coupar maintained a strong sense of Cistercian identity and a European outlook, it was also highly enmeshed in and profoundly influenced by its immediate environment. The nature of Coupar’s experience was shaped by its locality, just as the abbey, in turn, had a reciprocal impact on its surroundings. Coupar was both a Cistercian house and a distinctively Scottish abbey.

Noutetiese berading van persone met piëtistiese mistastings oor lewensheiligheid / Pieter Abraham RousseauRousseau, Pieter Abraham January 2009 (has links)
In the rich diversity of forms of the Christian Church, there are different perspectives on how believers ought to live holy lives and how their sanctification should progress. As such, the piety and sanctification of Christians entail every facet of our lives and the possibility of misunderstanding is ever present, because humans are fallible and at risk to "work" with the Bible in their own fashion.
A wrong understanding of sin inevitably leads to error as regards piety. Pietism or mutations /forms thereof may therefore stifle, rather than promote real piety coram Deo, in the Christian faith community and in conducting our everyday lives. The aim of the study is, therefore, to advance genuine piety with Christian believers. The doctrine of successive works of grace and the style or approach in which proponents of the doctrine treat Scripture, were critically examined in the first section of the basis-theory. A hermeneutical position from the reformed perspective was stated. The sovereignty of God and the acknowledged authority of Scripture are both the centre and periphery of the reformed perspective, and from a grammatical-historical paradigm augmented by historical-cultural information, the construct of sin in the understanding of the first New Testament audience was examined. The juxtaposed construct of piety, as the logical opposite of sin, was correspondingly explored.
The doctrine of so-called successive works of grace was reviewed analytically in the second phase of the basis-theory and the conclusion was stated that this doctrine is a form of pietism. The usage of Scripture and the terminology utilized by pietistic groupings to establish their doctrine was evaluated from a grammatical-historical point of departure.
The aim of the study was to render pastoral assistance to someone who was, or is involved with the successive works of grace variation of pietism. For this reason, the meta-theoretical facet of the study did not focus on an academic study of sources to explain the phenomenon of pietism, but instead believers' experience of the successive works of grace form of pietism was investigated by means of a narrative empirical study. This investigation took place within the margins of the religious experience of three groups of participants in a church that embraces the particular doctrine. The three categories were believers that advocate the doctrine of successive works of grace, believers that abandoned the same and those that disagree with such a doctrine.
From the basis-theory and the interpretation of the empirical results, an uncomplicated hermeneutical counselling strategy was put together with due emphasis on the correct understanding of Scriptural information on the topics of sin and piety/sanctification. The aim of the strategy is to educate believers from a Scriptural position and perspective on the indicative-imperative aspects of reconciliation and sanctification in Christ.
The perfection of what Jesus has done and our reciprocal faith response is stated and conveyed in the strategy. A model consisting of a number of counselling sessions are suggested to guide believers not to adopt the particular belief or, otherwise, to provide a pastoral, remedial support to assist believers in finding liberation from the doctrine of successive works of grace. / Thesis (Ph.D. (Pastoral)--North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2010.

Sanctuary cult in relation to religious piety in the Book of Psalms / by Dragoslava Santrac.Santrac, Dragoslava January 2012 (has links)
The specific thesis that is tested in this study is that there is continual interaction between the sanctuary cult and personal religious experience in the Book of Psalms. The main theoretical argument is that the sanctuary cult had a formative role in creating the piety of the psalmists. The study attempts to explore the specific nature of that relationship and to benefit from the contributions of three major approaches to the Psalms, i.e., the form critical approach (Hermann Gunkel), the cultic approach (Sigmund Mowinckel) and the Psalter-shaping approach (Gerald H. Wilson, James L. Mays, Jerome F. D. Creach, Mark D. Futato, J. Clinton McCann and Walter Brueggemann).
The study suggests that the ongoing interaction between the sanctuary cult and personal piety in the Psalms is the result of the creative power of cult. It offers evidence of the possible shaping of the Psalter around the sanctuary motif. It also offers a unique perspective on the piety of the psalmists, suggesting that the psalmists, and particularly the editor(s) of the present shape of the Psalter, promoted the eschatological hope of Israel in the new temple and the heavenly aspect of Israel’s sanctuary. / Thesis (PhD (Old Testament))--North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus in association with Greenwich School of Theology, U.K., 2013.
