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.

De la production de connaissances de recherche enlittérature. : Étude comparative sur la recherche littéraire en Afriquefrancophone. / : On the production of researched knowledge in literature. Comparativestudy of literary research in francophone Africa.Kremling, Julius January 2018 (has links)
Cette présente étude répond aux trois questions de recherche suivantes : Y-a-t-il une épistémologie africaine (francophone) ? Comment la méthodologie de la recherche littéraire se définit-elle ? Quelles sont les méthodes exactes employées par la recherche littéraire dans un contexte africain ? En nous appuyant sur l’oeuvre philosophique de Paulin J. Hountondji nous avons développé un concept de savoir africain. En l’absence des théories africaines sur la recherche littéraire nous recourrons aux théories formulées dans un contexte européen, par des chercheurs tels que Kathrin Busch, Ivan Jablonka et Corina Caduff. Ensuite, quatre oeuvres littéraires africaines, Wala Bok. Une histoire orale du hip hop au Sénégal de Fatou Kandé Senghor, Bribes d’une vie nigériane de Françoise Ugochukwu, La Gloire des imposteurs, lettres sur le Mali et l’Afrique d’Aminata Dramane Traoré et de Boubacar Boris Diop et Bogo. Notes de travail chez des potières à Bamako d’Emmanuelle Samson ont été analysées pour identifier les méthodes exactes employées par la recherche littéraire en Afrique. / This study answers the following three research questions : Does an African (francophone) epistemology exist ? How is the methodology of literary research defined ? What are the exact methods used by literary research in Africa ? Building on the philosophical work of Paulin J. Hountondji we develop a concept of African knowledge. In the absence of African theories of literary research we call upon European theories proposed by researchers such as Kathrin Busch, Ivan Jablonka and Corina Caduff. Next, four literary works, Wala Bok. Une histoire orale du hip hop au Sénégal by Fatou Kandé Senghor, Bribes d’une vie nigériane by Françoise Ugochukwu, La Gloire des imposteurs, lettres sur le Mali et l’Afrique by Aminata Dramane Traoré and Boubacar Boris Diop and Bogo. Notes de travail chez des potières à Bamako by Emmanuelle Samson are analyzed to identify the exact literary research methods used in Africa.
