451	"Člověk" u Ibn Rušda a Maimonida / Human being by Ibn Rushd and Maimonides Kopecká, Pavlína January 2012 (has links) This thesis interprets the concept of human being in the work of Maimonides and ibn Rushd, two representatives of major Arab and Jewish medieval philosophy. It combines the ancient Greek philosophical tradition, especially Aristotle, with a religious context. When Maimonides and Ibn Rushd tried to harmonize these two traditions, they had to deal with many opposite views, that stemmed from the difference between religious and ancient world. Behind this intellectual ground have they created the original thesis and approaches to grasping reality, the world and the human being in it. The issue of human being is analyzed in three levels. The first level consists of the relationship between human being and creation, which addresses the question about origin of the world the human soul and the resurrection. The second level, i.e. the man and the world, is devoted to describing a scheme of the world, human knowledge and the theory of prophecy. Ethical and political views are analyzed on the third level, which represents the position of human being in relation to the polis.

452	Le retour de l'art mural à l'époque contemporaine / The return of the Mural art in the contemporary period Malbranche, Chloë 01 October 2011 (has links) Le retour de l'Art mural à l'époque contemporaine" tourne autour de la problématique suivante: en quoi l'Art Mural est-il une nouvelle forme de métaphysique puisqu’elle permet à l'homme de projeter son âme sur un support et se retrouve ainsi dévoilée aux yeux de tous sous cette forme qui s’apparente à l" ekstase "soit un au dehors mis en mouvement par une "corporéité habitée" car le peintre muraliste est celui qui revendique l'esprit d'une époque et fusionne avec le mur pour créer une image, celle de l'invisible rendue visible. Le concept de « mur » sera abordé comme une pierre angulaire au travers des âges, comme support dans l’art moderne, art qui permet de faire un lien avec le passé mais surtout se démarque des arts contemporains car il sera nécessaire d’approcher les œuvres murales et le graffiti en général qui sera défini et fera l’objet d’une étude approfondie. Ainsi l’art rupestre qu’il est possible de comprendre d’après les études de Henri LHOTE, d’André LEROI-GOURHAN et de l’Abbé BREUIL pourra être mis en lumière notamment en décrivant les peintures pariétales retrouvées dans la grotte de Niaux, de Kapova, de Altamira, de Lascaux et de Chauvet qui représentent la première forme d’art humain et le commencement d’une spiritualité naissante. Le lien pourra être fait avec le symbolisme de l’Art égyptien et sa construction de l’image pour arriver à l’art décoratif des fresques de Pompéi et d’Herculanum où les graffitis de ces villes ont été étudiés par Eva CANTARELLA. De manière chronologique il sera intéressant de rappeler que le Moyen Age fut l’époque de la naissance des fresques romanes en vue de promouvoir une spiritualité qui évolue au cours des âges. Il existe aussi des techniques selon Cennino CENNINI qui explique les procédés de l’« intonaco » et de la fresque « a fresco » associés au père Ignazio POZZO. Enfin la période contemporaine fera l’objet de cette réflexion car les mouvements en peinture sont faits de liens mais surtout font rupture avec ce qui précède pour s’établir dans le temps selon l’expression de Valérie DUPONT, historienne de l’Art. / The return of Mural Art in the contemporary period” revolves round the following issue: In what way can one consider art to be a new form of metaphysics, since it allows man to project his soul on a support thus unveiling it to all in this form, which is close to a kind of “ecstasy”, i.e. an outside that is made to move through a “lived-in corporality”, for the mural painter claims the spirit of a period and merges with the wall so as to created an image – that of the invisible made visible. The “wall” concept will be examined as a foundation stone through the ages, as a support in modern art, a type of art that can create a link with the past but which especially stands out from contemporary art types, since we'll be studying mural works made by muralists as well as graffiti in general, which will be defined and studied in depth. Thus, rupestral art, which may be understood through the studies of Henri LHOTE, André LEROI-GOURHAN and Abbot BREUIL, can be explained most notably by looking at parietal paintings found in the Niaux, Kapova, Altamira, Lascaux and Chauvet caves, which represent the first form of human art and the beginning of a nascent spirituality. A link may be made to the symbolism of Egyptian art and its construction of image before reaching the decorative art of the Pompei and Herculanum frescoes – graffitis in those cities were studied by Eva CANTARELLA. It will be interesting, from a chronological point of view, to remember that the Middle Ages were the period when romanesque frescoes were born in order to further foster that age-old evolving spirituality. Such art was considered by Cennino CENNINI, who, along with father Ignazio POSSO explains the processes of “intonaco and the “a fresco” fresco. Finally, we'll have to study the modern period, since painting movements are made up of links and, more importantly, make a break with what preceded them, in order to last in time, as Valérie DUPONT, an arti historian, says.

No. of bitstreams: 1 Fernando A Figueira do Nascimento.pdf: 599562 bytes, checksum: 7b55c64c918bc44c435606f8cd67d765 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2010-05-18 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / This work aims to analyze the relation between becoming ill and the psychic dynamism which is found in a sermon written by Father Antonio Vieira (1608-1697). Since he had considered the plague as the worst disease of his time, we will focus on the features he had emphasized concerning becoming ill, the therapy and cure. The Sermon of Saint Roque was written by Vieira in 1659 and, according to the author, Portugal was threatened by the plague which had swept across the Algarve Kingdom. Vieira evoked this saint who was traditionally known for helping and curing people that had got the plague. The image of the saint in his sermon was not only employed for offering the cure to the ones who got the disease but also for offering a model of conduct which reflected a kind of knowledge concerning the relation between disease and psychic dynamism. In the description of the saint s misfortunes including the plague, Vieira emphasized the interaction between what was called primary and secondary causes that reflected desire-transgression-disease. Concerning primary causes, punishment revealed a man s fault; as for the secondary causes, air corruption; its change from a vital to a fatal element, would bring disease. This would show man s condition in the world, his loneliness and his potentiality for meeting again the Being / Este trabalho tem o objetivo de analisar a relação entre adoecer e o dinamismo psíquico em um sermão de Padre Antônio Vieira (1608-1697). Em função de ser a peste a enfermidade que classificou como a pior de seu tempo, observaremos os aspectos que o jesuíta destacava no processo de adoecer, na prevenção e na cura. O Sermão de São Roque foi escrito por Antônio Vieira no ano de 1659 e, conforme o jesuíta, nessa época Portugal estava sob a ameça da peste que fazia arder o reino do Algarve. Antônio Vieira evocava o santo que tradicionalmente foi conhecido por socorrer os doentes de peste e curá-los. A imagem do santo em seu sermão não somente foi utilizada no sentido de oferecer a cura aos apestados, mas também um modelo de conduta, que refletia um tipo de conhecimento a respeito da relação entre a enfermidade e o dinamismo psíquico. Ao descrever as desventuras do santo, e entre elas a peste, Vieira acentuava a interação do que foi chamado de causas secundárias e primárias que refletiam a tríade desejo-transgressão-enfermidade. Quanto às causas primárias, a punição revelava uma falta do homem; quanto às secundárias, o ar corrupto, a transformação do elemento da vida em elemento de morte, conduziria à enfermidade que por sua vez desvelava a condição do homem no mundo, sua solidão e sua potencialidade a reencontrar-se com o Ser Paixões da alma Enfermidade Dinamismo psíquico Vieira, Antonio, 1608-1697 Doenças Psicologia - Brasil - História Psicologia -- Brasil -- Historia History of psychology Passions of the soul Disease Psychic dynamism Psychology
454	Les correspondances amoureuses de Joë Bousquet : espace d'identité et d'altérité / Joë Bousquet's love correspondences : space of identity and otherness Bie, Zhi 15 December 2017 (has links) Au coeur de l’existence et de l’oeuvre de Bousquet(18971950) se trouve la blessure qu’il reçut à la guerre de 14-18 et qui le condamna à la paralysie. Cette expérience tragique fut la source d’une oeuvre originale et diverse, dans laquelle les correspondances, et plus particulièrement les correspondances amoureuses, tiennent une place importante. Elles sont l’espace dans lequel se déploie une quête d’identité qui passe par la relation à l’altérité, et plus précisément, par la relation amoureuse. L’écriture est vécue par Bousquet comme une tentative de salut, une lutte contre le mal, une quête du sens et de la vérité à travers le langage. Cette écriture intime sonde les profondeurs intérieures de l’homme et s’élève vers la hauteur spirituelle par l’Amour. La recherche de l’unité et de l’essentiel conduit progressivement à l’expression d’une vision du monde qui est aussi une poétique et un enseignement sur la « vraie vie ». / At the core of Joë Bousquet’s life and work (18971950) lies the wound he received during WWI which was to leave him paralysed. Such a tragic experience brought about a unique though diverse achievement, especially through his love letters. Indeed they provide matter for an identity questwhich means how one relates to others, more particularly when love is involved. For Bousquet writing is tantamount to reaching for salvation, it compares with fighting back evil, it is like a quest for meaning and truth by means of words. That deepseated writing probes the inner parts of the human soul, eventually rising up to spiritual heights by means of love. The search for unity and the essential truth also gradually results in a poetical viewing of the world, as well as a lesson of ‘true life’.

455	Die implikasies van die mensbeskouing in die Pauliniese briewe vir die morele status van die menslike embrio ten opsigte van stamselnavorsing : 'n teologies-etiese perspektief / J.G. van der Walt. Van der Walt, Johann George January 2013 (has links) Stem cell research offers hope to many people suffering from incurable diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, diabetes, heart disease and spinal back injuries. However this poses a moral dilemma because embryos are destroyed during embryonic stem cell research. To determine whether embryonic stem cell research is morally justifiable, two views in respect of a human being were considered: i. a human has a dualistic nature in which his body and soul are two separate entities or ii. his body and soul forms a unity which can not be separated. If a human has a dualistic nature, it means that the embryo is not a human, it does not have a soul because the soul is added later to form a human. The implication of this is that it will be morally justifiable to kill an embryo during embryonic stem cell research. However if body and soul forms a unity which can not be separated, the embryo is a human which is already developing into a full grown human with several stages of development. It will thus not be morally justifiable to kill an embryo as this will violate the sixth commandment, i.e. “Thou shalt not kill.” To determine whether a human’s body and soul is an inseparable unity or whether they are two separate entities, the Pauline letters' view on the human being was investigated. The research method employed was to do a comparative literary study to highlight the different aspects of stem cell research and then exegesis was done in respect of body (σoμα / sōma); soul (ψυχὴ / psychē) and spirit (πνεῦμα / pneuma) in the Pauline letters according to the grammatical-historical method. An electronic Bible Concordance was used to determine the texts in which the above concepts appear. A semantic word analysis was also done to analyse these concepts. Then authoritative commentaries were used to check the findings. The analysis indicated that Paul refers to a human as unity in which body and soul can not be separated. The implication of this finding is that embryonic stem cell research should be dismissed because it will result in the destruction of embryos. Humans will thus be killed in violation of the sixth commandment. On the other hand adult stem cell research should be encouraged because it has the potential to cure diseases which has up to now been incurable. / Thesis (MTh (Ethics))--North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2013.

457	Konst i omlopp : mening, medier och marknad i Stockholm under 1700-talets senare hälft / Art in Circulation : Meaning, Media, and Market in Eighteenth-Century Stockholm Petersson, Sonya January 2014 (has links) The aim of this doctoral thesis is to explore how art was mediated and given meaning in the environment of an urban media culture in Stockholm during the second part of the 18th century. It comprises studies of how art was distributed on the market, how it was discussed in the press and how it was exhibited in public. It also includes an analytical orientation toward mixing of concepts and values, rather than purifying them into categories such as elite and popular. Art is approached as an open concept of investigation. The thesis presents three studies. The first discusses art as concepts and subject matter in papers, pamphlets and encyclopaedias, with a critical stand against the historiography emphasizing the establishment of the 'fine arts'. The second situates art in two parallel practises of showing art in public, exhibitions arranged by the Academy of Arts and the Auction Chamber's public sales. The third deals with prints on the market, a medium equally recognized as one of the fine arts and as a visual mass medium. All studies also consider notions of interaction, public, and social class. Two overarching arguments are developed. The first concerns media cultural functions as mechanisms of cultural transgression. This argument points to the mixing of international and local, regarding both themes in the press and prints on the market. It also stresses the mixing of art, commerce, and entertainment, in the dual character of both the academy's exhibitions and the auction's sales. The second argument consists in pointing to alternative cuts, by which I suggest discursive relations between art, luxury, entertainment, and knowledge. These are areas that, since the 18th century, have often been kept apart, but were nonetheless deeply interwoven. One overarchig pattern studied throughout the thesis is the 18th-century linking of the fine arts as well as luxury, entertainment, and knowledge to a perceptually defined subject. art fine arts concepts definitions media culture intermediality cultural consumption cultural market class press encyclopaedias prints exhibitions auctions aesthetics perception pleasure entertainment knowledge luxury body and soul konst sköna konster begrepp definitioner mediekultur intermedialitet kulturkonsumtion kulturmarknad klass press encyklopedier grafik utställningar auktioner estetik perception behag nöje kunskap lyx kropp och själ
458	Carrying the torch of hope: survivors' narratives of trauma and spirituality Martin, James Henry Iain 30 November 2003 (has links) This research journey examines the process of co-creating, along with my co-travellers (research participants), a more holistic approach to trauma debriefing. Whilst incorporating elements of Mitchell's (1983) Critical Incidence Stress Debriefing model (C.I.S.D.), our point of difference has been to adopt a narrative pastoral approach. This was achieved by introducing spirituality and narrative therapy practices. Our research pathway has been further shaped by adopting a qualitative research approach within a postmodern, social construction discourse. My research curiosity was invited by both the mind, body and soul divide expressed in psychology; and the healing possibilities of spirituality I have witnessed in both my own and in the lives of others. While my co-travellers predominantly preferred to express their spirituality in terms of Christianity, our narrative pastoral approach to trauma debriefing is offered to people of all religious persuasions. / Philosophy, Practical and Systematic Theology / M.Th.

459	Paměť a čas v Augustinových Vyznáních a v Proustově Hledání ztraceného času / Memory and Time in Augustine's Confessiones and in Proust's A la Recherche du Temps Perdu Roreitnerová, Alena January 2018 (has links) This presented paper is a parallel reading of two works which both connect a philosophical perception of time and memory with an actual narration. The first is one of the earliest spiritual autobiographies of late antiquity - Confessions - and the second is a modern novel - In Search of Lost Time. A distinctive (originally Neoplatonic) understanding of eternity as simultaneity opens a line of questioning which both Confessions and In Search of Lost Time have in common: What is the relation between time and eternity (extra-temporality in Proust's case) and is it possible at all for a time being to have a relation to something what is eternal? In both works, the mediating role between time succession and timeless simultaneity is played by narration and memory. Part I of the paper (Chapter 1) deals with Augustine's understanding of time which can be found not only in Book XI of Confessions but also throughout the whole work including its narrative passages; it also partly takes into consideration Book VI of De musica. It tries to answer a more general question, i.e. whether Augustine in his autobiography concentrates only on subjective time or whether he is interested in time as such (in contrast to eternity). The answer is intended to be found through the analysis of questions the author of...

The theoretical part describes school children{\crq}s messrom activities at free play time, characterizes guidelines of activities in school children{\crq}s messrom programs, and explores difficulties in value development from physiological, pedagogical anthropology and axiology, philosophy and religious ethics. This thesis also analyzes children of younger school age and studies normal childhood development and phases of development relating to human religiosity. It also includes the issues surrounding today{\crq}s education system relating to religion. The practical part of this thesis is based upon survey research conducted in two elementary schools. The survey subject was directed relating to the meaning of Christian holidays such as Easter and Christmas, preternatural phenomena and the perplexity surrounding death. It emerged from this survey research that the majority of young children are unaware of the meaning of Christian holidays such as Easter or Christmas, that they are interested in preternatural phenomena, and think intensively about death. Three weeks of learning guidelines are presented within this thesis. These guidelines are based on the survey study and cover the religious meanings of Christian holidays, specifically Christmas and Easter, and perplexity surrounding death.
