Spreukenwijsheid voor begeleiding = the wisdom of Proverbs for guidanceHeino, Gerrit 11 1900 (has links)
Deze dissertatie levert een bijdrage aan een christelijk geïnspireerde visie op begeleiding vanuit de oudtestamentische wijsheidsliteratuur; in het bijzonder het boek Spreuken. Hoofdstuk 1 bevat een algemene inleiding waarin het begrip begeleiding wordt gedefinieerd. In hoofdstuk 2 staat de vraag naar de context van de wijsheid centraal. Er wordt een (conceptueel) kader ontwikkeld over begeleiding in oud-Israël om zo inzicht te krijgen in de wijsheidsleraren en hun leerlingen. Het derde hoofdstuk richt zich op de theologie van de wijsheid en beantwoordt de vraag welke invloed de wijsheid en de theologie op elkaar hebben gehad en hoe de theologie van de wijsheid zich verhoudt tot de theologie van het Oude Testament. Dit hoofdstuk besteedt daarnaast aandacht aan het Godsbeeld en het mensbeeld van de wijsheidsleraren en behandelt (theologische) thema’s die relevant zijn voor begeleiding. Hoofdstuk 4 houdt zich bezig met Salomo, de mannen van Chizkia, Agoer en Lemoeël. Salomo neemt in de wijsheidsliteratuur een prominente plaats in en wordt genoemd als auteur van verzamelingen van spreuken in het boek Spreuken. ‘Zijn’ wijsheid heeft een sociale verandering in oud-Israël op gang gebracht. Hoofdstuk 5 buigt zich over de vraag tegen welke achtergrond het boek Spreuken moet worden gelezen. Vragen die gesteld worden, zijn wie de mogelijke auteur van het boek is, in welk tijdvak het boek is ontstaan, uit welke verzamelingen het boek bestaat, en voor wie en met welk doel het boek is geschreven. De antwoorden werpen licht op de teksten die in hoofdstuk 6 onder de loep worden genomen en worden, in hoofdstuk 7, toegepast op begeleiding. Het zesde hoofdstuk neemt als uitgangspunt teksten uit het boek Spreuken die licht werpen op begeleiding. Deze teksten worden uitgelegd aan de hand van toonaangevende wetenschappelijke commentaren. Tot deze teksten behoren de inleiding op Spreuken (1:1-7), de ‘vrees voor JHWH’-teksten, ‘leven’-teksten, werkwoorden die het proces kenmerken dat leidt tot een ‘levend leven’ en opdrachten aan de vader/leraar (en daarmee aan de begeleider). Hoofdstuk 7 geeft antwoord op de onderzoeksvraag welke aanwijzingen kunnen worden afgeleid uit het boek Spreuken voor begeleiders en christelijke opleidingen tot begeleidingskundige? en wendt de kennis opgedaan in de voorgaande hoofdstukken aan om te komen tot een Bijbels geïnspireerde visie op begeleiding in een hedendaagse context. / Old Testament and Ancient Near Eastern Studies / D.Th.

Etude de la dynamique océanique de la mer des Salomon : modélisation numérique à haute résolution / Oceanic dynamics in Solomon Sea from high-resolution numerical simulationsDjath, Bughsin' 23 January 2014 (has links)
La mer des Salomon est une mer semi-fermée située dans le Pacifique subtropical. Elle connecte les masses d'eau des subtropiques à l'équateur via les courants de bord ouest de faibles latitudes (LLWBCs) et pourrait de ce fait moduler à l'échelle décennale le climat du Pacifique tropical. Très peu d'observations sont disponibles pour l'étude de cette région. Un des objectifs principaux de cette étude est la mise en place d'un modèle réaliste d'océan à haute résolution (1/36°) de la mer des Salomon permettant la résolution d'une large gamme d'échelles, particulièrement la mésoéchelle et marginalement la sous-mésoéchelle. La circulation générale est étudiée ainsi que la variabilité à mésoéchelle et à sous-mésoéchelle. La représentation de la circulation simulée par le modèle 1/36° est non seulement validée par les observations disponibles mais aussi améliorée par rapport à celle simulée par les modèles antérieurs. La variabilité mésoéchelle simulée dans le modèle à haute résolution est fortement augmentée par rapport à celle issue des modèles antérieurs et est en bon accord avec les observations. Des études spectrales en nombre d'onde de la température de surface, de la dénivellation de la surface libre et de l'énergie cinétique ont été réalisées dans la mer des Salomon et suggèrent que les pentes spectrales obtenues sont proches de la théorie classique de la quasi-géostrophie de surface (SQG). / The Solomon Sea is a semi-closed sea located in the subtropical Pacific Ocean. It connects subtropical water masses to the equatorial one through the low latitude western boundary currents (LLWBCs) and could potentially modulate the tropical Pacific climate at decadal time-scales. This region is not well documented because of few available observations. One of the main objective of this study is to set up a high resolution realistic ocean model of the Solomon at 1/36° that will allow to resolve a broad range of scales, especially the mesoscale and partially the sub-mesoscale processes. The general circulation and the mesoscale and sub-mesoscale variabilities are studied. The representation of the high resolution circulation is consistent with the available observations and is better resolved than in previous coarser resolution models. The mesoscale variability in the high resolution model is strongly increased compared to that of previous models and is in a good agreement with the observations. SST, SSH and kinetic energy wavenumber spectra in the Solomon Sea show spectral slopes closed to the surface quasi-geostrophy SQG theory.

Africa's golden age debunked: a study of the sources of select black African historical novelsAyivor, Moses Geoffrey Kwame January 1994 (has links)
The main thesis of this dissertation is that even a casual analysis of African writing reveals that contemporary African literature has and is still undergoing a distinctive metamorphosis. This change, which amounts to a significant departure from the early fifties, derives its creative impulse from demonic anger and cynical iconoclasm and is triggered by the mind-shattering disillusion that followed independence. The proclivity towards tyranny and the exploitation of the ruled in modern Africa is traced by radical African creative writers to an ancient source: the legendary and god-like rulers of precolonial Africa. Ouologuem's Bound to Violence and Armah's Two Thousand Seasons and The Healers hypothesize that past sins begot present sins. The legendary warrior heroes of the past, whose glory and splendour were once exalted in African writing, are now ruthlessly disentombed and paraded as miscreants and despots, who not only brutalized and sold their people into slavery but also ideologically fabricated their own legends and myths in order to maximize their tyrannical power. The preoccupation of these works is, therefore, to divest the ancient heroes of their false glory. contemporary critics tend to perceive this anti-traditional posture purely as a modern trend in African literature. The truth of the matter, however, is that the literary foundations of this anti-nativist/anti-Afrocentric literary tradition were laid by Thomas Mofolo and Sol Plaatje, whose Chaka (1925) and Mhudi (1930) are the precursors. The five primary works in this study parody and veer away from the generally accepted traditional African epic heroism and recorded history towards a communal heroic ideal which celebrates the larger community instead of the single epic heroes normally romanticized in African legendary tradition. These novelists, while dismantling the European and African myths about Africa's Golden Age, also disfigure the often glorified ancient historical landmarks and the fabled heroes of Africa's oral and recorded history. The rationale behind this investigation is the fact that though these works have innovated, assimilated, and parodied the African oral arts, particularly traditional African epic heroism, no detailed study has been made to explore the literary transformation these texts have undergone as written works. Treating African texts only as appendages of Western literature may undermine the ability of the critical evaluations which go into the heart of these texts and unravel their deeper meanings. The outcome of this kind of approach is that pertinent issues of style and theme originating from negro-African metaphysics, oral traditions, and iconography could thereby be left unexplored. Besides, the bulk of the current body of criticism on African literature, particularly on colonial Africa, tends to concentrate on colonialist Christian values and Western literary production models. One of the overriding concerns of this research, therefore, is to veer away from merely rehashing Eurocentric pronouncements on European influences and literary modes parodied by these works, by taking a fresh. look at the texts from the perspective of Afrocentrism and in particular from the point of view of the traditional African oral bards. To this end, therefore, the dissertation is divided into six main chapters and a short concluding chapter: Chapter 1, A Survey of Black Representations of Pre-colonial Africa, functions as an introduction, sketches the European image versus the Black counter-discourse, and locates the study within the current debate on the concept of pre-colonial Africa's Golden Age. Chapter 2, Thomas Mofolo's "Inverted Epic Hero", the nucleus of the study I analyzes the anti-epic and ironic modes manipulated by the text and also maps out the epic generic framework which structures the whole dissertation. Chapter 3, Traditional African Epic Heroism Revised, discusses Plaatje's Mhudi, paying special attention to the text's deployment of the African epic genre as well as the caricaturist and the anti-heroic modes. In Chapter 4, Yambo Ouologuem's Bound to Violence is examined under the title A World Trapped in an Orgy of Violence, Barbarism and Servitude. African oral art is used as the hermeneutic key in unlocking the complexities of Ouologuem's novel. Chapter 5, The African Anti-Legendary Creative Mythology, scrutinizes Armah's Two Thousand Seasons, highlighting, among other topics, Armah's daring innovative stylistic experimentation. Chapter 6, entitled The Akan Iconic Forest of Symbols, deals with Armah' s The Healers, concentrating on the Akan iconographic backdrop which shapes and informs this work. And finally, The Metamorphosis of Traditional African Epic Heroism, the title of the concluding chapter, sums up this dissertation.

The Canticle of spiritual direction : a transformative approach to the Song of SongsLam, Judy Elise 02 1900 (has links)
This dissertation suggests the Song of Songs as a biblical paradigm for Christian spiritual
direction based on the poem’s human dynamics, theological poetics and mystical aesthetic.
The Song of Songs is paradigmatic as a journey from a state of self-neglect (depletion),
through dynamic encounters of love (transformation), to living who I am in union with the
divine I AM (deification). Identifying the human beloved as archetypal seeker and positing
transformation in love as the raison-d’être for spiritual direction, the research delineates
important implications for spiritual praxis, namely: the human subject (locus); human
yearning (focus); the human search (journey); dynamics of human transformation and
spiritual maturation (process); aspects of life-integration and union with God (purpose); and
becoming a living sacrament in the world (epiphany). With its experiential-existential
approach, The Canticle of Spiritual Direction serves as an interdisciplinary and intercultural
resource on the Song of Songs, Christian spiritual direction, and Christian mysticism. / Christian Spirituality, Church History and Missiology / M. Th. (Christian Spirituality)

The religiosity of the book of Song of Songs in contextVan der Zwan, Pieter 03 1900 (has links)
Despite its chequered interpretational history, the book of Shîr ha-Shîrîm (Song of Songs) in the Hebrew Bible and Christian Old Testament has still not come to its fullest religious potential. The reason is that it has mainly served relatively closed religious traditions defined by the exclusion of those that have reacted against it. As the text of Song of Songs itself does not explicitly testify to any religiosity, these communities have understood it religiously by projecting their own predetermined needs and beliefs onto it. The text does, however, suggest several layers in the history of its formation, representing different levels of consciousness and stages of religiosity. In the postmodern globalising context where the importance of interfaith understanding is increasingly realised and the nature of human religiosity is constantly redefined in terms of ever-broadening horizons, the religiosity of the book has been stretched as wide as possible by also taking into consideration the ancient contextual influences which could have left their traces on the unconscious mind of its author(s) and redactor(s). To this end, the transpersonal psychological theory of Kenneth Wilber as interpreted by Michael Washburn has been used. Wilber’s inclusive view of religiosity respects all its forms as developmentally appropriate expressions of experiences of the divine which should all be taken seriously. The explicit “absence” of the divine in Song of Songs has been so conspicuous that it has ironically made it more present and led to a greater search for the Ineffable whose whispering and footprints are discernible in relation to the level of consciousness. Exploring the religiosity of Song of Songs in this way then becomes an exercise in being more sensitive to the presence of the divine in all other areas of life as well. Traditional polarities such as sexuality and religiosity are dissolved at the same time and proven to coincide as two aspects of the same experience. Not only does erotic love open one’s eyes to the divine in nature as the body of God, but one also encounters the divine in the body. / Biblical and Ancient Studies / D. Th. (Old Testament)

Predicting the Longevity of DVDR Media by Periodic Analysis of Parity, Jitter, and ECC Performance ParametersWells, Daniel Patrick 14 July 2008 (has links) (PDF)
For the last ten years, DVD-R media have played an important role in the storage of large amounts of digital data throughout the world. During this time it was assumed that the DVD-R was as long-lasting and stable as its predecessor, the CD-R. Several reports have surfaced over the last few years questioning the DVD-R's ability to maintain many of its claims regarding archival quality life spans. These reports have shown a wide range of longevity between the different brands. While some DVD-Rs may last a while, others may result in an early and unexpected failure. Compounding this problem is the lack of information available for consumers to know the quality of the media they own. While the industry works on devising a standard for labeling the quality of future media, it is currently up to the consumer to pay close attention to their own DVD-R archives and work diligently to prevent data loss. This research shows that through accelerated aging and the use of logistic regression analysis on data collected through periodic monitoring of disc read-back errors it is possible to accurately predict unrecoverable failures in the test discs. This study analyzed various measurements of PIE errors, PIE8 Sum errors, POF errors and jitter data from three areas of the disc: the whole disc, the region of the disc where it first failed as well as the last half of the disc. From this data five unique predictive equations were produced, each with the ability to predict disc failure. In conclusion, the relative value of these equations for end-of-life predictions is discussed.

Network Coding for Multihop Wireless Networks: Joint Random Linear Network Coding and Forward Error Correction with Interleaving for Multihop Wireless NetworksSusanto, Misfa January 2015 (has links)
Optimising the throughput performance for wireless networks is one of the
challenging tasks in the objectives of communication engineering, since wireless
channels are prone to errors due to path losses, random noise, and fading
phenomena. The transmission errors will be worse in a multihop scenario due to its
accumulative effects. Network Coding (NC) is an elegant technique to improve the
throughput performance of a communication network. There is the fact that the bit
error rates over one modulation symbol of 16- and higher order- Quadrature
Amplitude Modulation (QAM) scheme follow a certain pattern. The Scattered
Random Network Coding (SRNC) system was proposed in the literature to exploit
the error pattern of 16-QAM by using bit-scattering to improve the throughput of
multihop network to which is being applied the Random Linear Network Coding
(RLNC). This thesis aims to improve further the SRNC system by using Forward
Error Correction (FEC) code; the proposed system is called Joint RLNC and FEC
with interleaving.
The first proposed system (System-I) uses Convolutional Code (CC) FEC. The
performances analysis of System-I with various CC rates of 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 1/6, and
1/8 was carried out using the developed simulation tools in MATLAB and compared
to two benchmark systems: SRNC system (System-II) and RLNC system (System-
III). The second proposed system (System-IV) uses Reed-Solomon (RS) FEC
code. Performance evaluation of System IV was carried out and compared to three
systems; System-I with 1/2 CC rate, System-II, and System-III. All simulations were
carried out over three possible channel environments: 1) AWGN channel, 2) a
Rayleigh fading channel, and 3) a Rician fading channel, where both fading
channels are in series with the AWGN channel. The simulation results show that
the proposed system improves the SRNC system. How much improvement gain
can be achieved depends on the FEC type used and the channel environment. / Indonesian Government and the University of Bradford

Morrison, Bambara, Silko : fractured and reconstructed mythic patterns in Song of Solomon, The salt eaters, and CeremonyHinkson, Warren. 17 April 2018 (has links)
Cette thèse explique le développement de la théorie critique des mythes (myth criticism) de Northrop Frye et veut démontrer que l'examen critique des mythes est un paradigme approprié pour analyser le développement des conventions littéraires anglaises et la communication d'archétypes dans des œuvres littéraires postmodernes. En examinant, à la lumière d'archétypes bibliques, de rites religieux provenant d'Afrique de l'ouest, de folklore amérindien et du mythe monomythique de la perte d'identité, trois romans afro-américains et amérindiens, je suggère que la théorie de Frye est applicable aux œuvres postmodernes amérindiennes et afro-américaines autant qu'elle l'est aux œuvres du canon traditionnel. Cette étude retrace les origines de la théorie de Frye et met en lumière la présence d'archétypes et de structures bibliques dans la fiction afro-américaine et amérindienne ainsi que la communication d'archétypes africains continentaux à la culture afro-américaine par un mélange d'ancienne religion africaine et d'archétypes bibliques. Ainsi, puisqu'il s'agit d'une application de la théorie de Frye, cette thèse enrichira notre compréhension du développement des conventions littéraires et de la portée de cette théorie, et permettra une remise en question de notre conception de la littérature afro-américaine et amérindienne.
