For Unto Us is a one movement work for soprano and orchestra. The text, by the composer, describes the thoughts and feelings of Mary, the mother of Jesus, as she watches the crucifixion. Mary's process of faith is traced through the sequence of dramatic events which proceed and follow the crucifixion. The work explores symbolic instrumentation, juxtaposition of harmonic languages, and extended techniques for performance and notation. The setting of the text combines traditional operatic idioms with new elements in the music. The duration of this dramatic, quasi-operatic scene is approximately nine minutes.

No Brasil, a ingestão de EVOO, o qual é importado de outros países, vem aumentando anualmente. Nos últimos anos, o Brasil começou a produzir EVOO, porém de maneira experimental. No capítulo 1 foi apresentada uma revisão bibliográfica destacando os estudos mais relevantes acerca do composição química e dos benefícios à saúde do azeite de oliva extravirgem. No capítulo 2, o objetivo foi determinar o teor de fenólicos totais (TFT) e a capacidade antioxidante (CA), bem como a correlação entre o TFT e cada um dos quatro métodos de CA, de 15 marcas de EVOO, cada qual em três lotes, resultando em 45 amostras. O TFT foi avaliado pelo método do reagente de Folin-Ciocalteu, enquanto a CA foi determinada pelos ensaios de FRAP, ABTS, DPPH¿ e ORAC. O TFT variou de 70 a 297 mg EAG kg-1, FRAP de 114 a 1557 µmol ET kg-1, ABTS de 0,5 a 1,9 mmol ET kg-1, DPPH¿ de 72 a 1129 µmol ET kg-1, e ORAC de 1,1 a 12,9 µmol ET g-1. Houve elevada e significativa correlação entre o TFT e cada um dos métodos de CA (FRAP, r2 = 0,8904; p < 0,001; ABTS, r2 = 0,7837; p < 0,001; DPPH¿, r2 = 0,7908; p < 0,001; ORAC, r2 = 0,7431; p < 0,001). Portanto, a maioria das marcas de EVOO apresentaram considerável TFT e elevados valores de CA. No capítulo 3, o objetivo foi otimizar a separação de 17 compostos fenólicos previamente detectados em EVOO. Foi utilizado um planejamento experimental Doehlert, avaliando-se o pH e a concentração do eletrólito. Resolução, tempo de corrida e coeficientes de variação dos tempos de migração foram as respostas. A função de desejabilidade de Derringer foi utilizada para otimizar simultaneamente as 37 respostas. Os 17 picos dos compostos foram separados em 19 minutos em capilar de sílica fundida (50 µm diâmetro interno, 72 cm comprimento efetivo) com bulbo estendido e eletrólito ácido bórico 101,3 mmol L-1 (pH 9,15, 30 kV). O método foi validado e aplicado em 15 amostras comerciais de EVOO. No capítulo 4, o objetivo foi determinar o teor de compostos fenólicos, tocoferóis e ácidos graxos de 17 EVOO monovarietais produzidos em Minas Gerais, durante duas colheitas. Foram quantificados os ácidos palmítico (6-12,6%), palmitoleico (0,2-2,5%), esteárico (1,6-2,2%), oleico (70,8-84,3%), linoleico (3,2-11,7%), a-linolênico (0,6-1,4), araquídico (0,4-0,8%), 9-eicosenoico (0,4-0,9%) e os compostos tirosol (NQ-155,21 mg kg-1), (+)-pinoresinol (2,89-22,64 mg kg-1), hidroxitirosol (ND-37,74 mg kg-1), luteolina (ND-2,23 mg kg-1), a-tocoferol (28,92-232,93 mg kg-1), ß-tocoferol (ND-9,56 mg kg-1) e ?-tocoferol (ND-18,75 mg kg-1). Em geral, os resultados foram similares aos descritos na literatura. O objetivo do capítulo 5 foi determinar o teor de compostos fenólicos em EVOO brasileiros por cromatografia líquida de rápida resolução acoplada à espectrometria de massas por tempo de voo com ionização por electrospray (RRLC-ESI-TOF-MS). Foram analisadas 25 amostras de EVOO do Rio Grande do Sul, Santa Catarina e Minas Gerais e duas colheitas. Foram identificados e quantificados 20 compostos fenólicos das classes dos alcoóis fenólicos, secoiridoides, lignanas e flavonoides. Os teores de compostos fenólicos totais nos EVOOs destacaram-se nas variedades Coratina (364 mg kg-1), Arbosana (255 mg kg-1) e Grappolo (228 mg kg-1). Desta forma, os EVOOs brasileiros são promissores no que se refere ao teor de compostos fenólicos totais, visto que os valores são comparáveis àqueles dos EVOOs de elevada qualidade produzidos em outros países / Abstract: Consumption of extra-virgin olive oil (EVOO) is highly recommended for its benefits to human health. In Brazil, consumption of EVOO, which is imported from other countries, is increasing annually. In the last years, Brazil started to produce EVOO,although in an experimental way. In chapter 1, a literature review highlighting the most relevant studies on the chemical composition and the health benefits of the extra-virgin olive oil is presented. In chapter 2, the aim was to determine the total phenolic content (TPC) and the antioxidant capacity (AC), as well as the correlation between TPC and each one of the four AC methods, of 15 EVOO brands, each one in three batches, resulting in 45 samples. TPC was evaluated by Folin-Ciocalteu reagent method, while the AC was assessed using FRAP, ABTS, DPPH¿ and ORAC assays. The TPC varied from 70 to 297 mg GAE kg-1, FRAP from 114 to 1557 µmol TE kg-1, ABTS from 0.5 to 1.9 mmol TE kg-1, DPPH¿ from 72 to 1129 µmol TE kg-1, and ORAC from 1.1 to 12.9 µmol TE g-1. High and significant correlation was found between the TPC and each one of the AC methods evaluated in this study (FRAP, r2 = 0.8904; p < 0.001; ABTS, r2 = 0.7837; p < 0.001; DPPH¿, r2 = 0.7908; p < 0.001; ORAC, r2 = 0.7431; p < 0.001). Therefore, most of the EVOO brands presented a considerable TPC and high AC values. In chapter 3, the aim was to optimize the separation of 17 phenolic compounds already detected in EVOO. A Doehlert matrix experimental design was used, evaluating the effects of pH and electrolyte concentration. Resolution, runtime and migration time relative standard deviation values were used as responses. Derringer¿s desirability function was used to simultaneously optimize all 37 responses. The 17 peaks were separated in 19 minutes using a fused-silica capillary (50 mm internal diameter, 72 cm of effective length) with an extended light path and 101.3 mmol.L-1 of boric acid electrolyte (pH 9.15, 30 kV). The method was validated and applied to 15 EVOO samples found in Brazilian supermarkets. In chapter 4, the aim was to determine the phenolic compounds, tocopherols and fatty acids contents of 17 monovarietal EVOOs produced in Minas Gerais state, during two crop years. Compounds identified comprised palmitic acid (6-12.6%), palmitoleic acid (0.2-2.5%), stearic acid (1.6-2.2%), oleic acid (70.8-84.3%), linoleic acid (3.2-11.7%), a-linolenic acid (0.6-1.4), arachidic acid (0.4-0.8%), 9-eicosenoic acid (0.4-0.9%), tyrosol (NQ-155.21 mg kg-1), (+)-pinoresinol (2.89-22.64 mg kg-1), hydroxytyrosol (ND-37.74 mg kg-1), luteolin (ND-2.23 mg kg-1), a-tocopherol (28.92-232.93 mg kg-1), ß-tocopherol (ND-9.56 mg kg-1), ?-tocopherol (ND-18.75 mg kg-1). Some of these monovarietal EVOOs presented results similar to those described in the literature. The aim of chapter 5 was to determine the phenolic compound contents of Brazilian EVOO, using rapid-resolution liquid chromatography coupled to electrospray ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (RRLC-ESI-TOF-MS). A total of 25 EVOO samples from Rio Grande do Sul, Santa Catarina and Minas Gerais states and two crops, were analyzed. It was possible to identify and quantify 20 phenolic compounds, belonging to the phenolic alcohol, secoiridoid, lignan and flavonoid classes. EVOOs from Coratina (364 mg kg-1), Arbosana (255 mg kg-1) and Grappolo (228 mg kg-1) varieties presented the highest total phenolic contents. The results showed that Brazilian EVOOs are promising concerning the total phenolic contents, since the values were comparable to those from high-quality EVOOs produced in other countries / Doutorado / Ciência de Alimentos / Doutor em Ciência de Alimentos

The Diplom's Thesis "Mariology of Louise M. Grignion de Montfort and Leo XIII" The Marian worshiper Louis Maria Grignion of Montfort worked in France as a Catholic priest and missionary at the turn of the 17th and 18th centuries. Grignion, the promoter of the rosary prayer and marian veneration, which Pope Leo XIII blessed in 1888, on the 50th anniversary of his ordination to the priesthood, left in his writings a spiritual message and taching, the elements of which we find in the works of Pope Leo XIII. This Pope is the author of Marian encyclicals promoting the rosary prayer. The tematic similarity in his view of the figure of the Virgin Mary and her influence in history appears in both, Grignion and Leo XIII, in the field of mariological expression and in the inseparable trinitological basis of mariology. The first chapter of this work contains the biography of the priest and missionary Louis M. Grignion of Montfort. It is followed by a biography of Gioacchino Pecci, the pope of the Roman Catholic Church since 1887. The second chapter clarifies the periodic conditionality of Grignion's works and outlines his partial mariology and Marian veneration. The third chapter maps the thinking of Louis M. Grignion implicitly present in the Marian encyclicals of Leo XIII on a general level and then in the...

The thesis deals with the introduction of methods used in the repairs of historical and listed buildings, focusing on timber and masonry load-bearing structures. The text describes the causes and types of structural defects, as well as possible ways of rehabilitation and is also supplemented by examples of their use in practice. This should create a sample book to show which options can be selected and what needs to be considered when restoring individual elements, so that the whole process of repairs is in accordance with the principles of monument care. Possible approaches and methods of reconstruction process of listed building are then demonstrated in the ongoing overall renovation of the pilgrimage site in Horní Police, which is a national cultural monument. The work focuses on the individual buildings of the complex, the Church of the Visitation of the Virgin Mary, the ambit that surrounds it and the entrance tower with a bell tower. The author also presents the history and description of the place of pilgrimage. Keywords Monument care, masonry load-bearing structures, timber load-bearing structures, rehabilitation, restoration, reconstruction, pilgrimage site, Horní Police, Church of the Visitation of the Virgin Mary

Working in its first part introduces the basic points of Marian spirituality. It shows her sources in the Old and New Testaments. The following are presented and analyzed its theological basis and are also compared various doctrinal truth doctrine of the Virgin Mary looking chosen saints of important theological figures with attitudes Joseph Ratzinger - Pope Benedict XVI. In the second half of the work is shown in the way he lived and understood Marian spirituality during his pontificate. The final section is intended to Benedict's thoughts, which are developed by individual elements of Marian devotion.

The aim of the thesis is to evaluace the altars with the central theme of Our Lady of Italian prohnance of the 14th and 15th centuries from the collection of Tommaso degli Obizzi, today in the National Gallery in Prague. The introduction will be assessed for czech and foreign literature on the topic. Then will be recalled the circumstances of the origin of this collection and the way how these works came from Konopiště chateau to the National Gallery in Prague. Next part of the thesis will be focused on five altarsplates, which will be interpreted by formal. Thes e works will be processed accordingly katalog system. Finally, work will evaluace those works and thein importance in the kontext of collecting in a wider context.

In my work I deal with the place of pilgrimage of the Virgin Mary on the Holy Mountain in Příbram in the interwar period. In the newly established Republic of Czechoslovakia, tense relations between Church and State has prevailed. Even iconoclastic acts are documented from that time. My assumption is that the Holy Mountain functioned as a place that helped to bring together believers, unite Catholics, and restore the faith. A catholic group called Matice Svatohorská was founded to focus on repairing extensive grounds and spreading the awareness of the Holy Mountain and the cult of the Virgin Mary through a published journal. Through an analysis of this journal I want to capture the resources that Catholic leaders used in consolidating and expanding the Catholic Faith in Bohemia. Through the analysis of the journal I want to know how the magazine reflected the relationship between church and state and what additional information reflects. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Lisa Horn (M. A.) verfasste einen religionsgeschichtlichen Beitrag mit dem Titel: Jungfrau, Himmlische, Gottesgebärerin. Der Kult der antiken Göttinnen Artemis und Aphrodite als Kontext früher Marienverehrung? Konzentriert auf die fünf ersten nachchristlichen Jahrhunderte und einige signifikante religiös-kultische Transfer-Zentren in Zypern und Kleinasien (etwa Ephesus) gilt das Erkenntnisinteresse der Verfasserin den Differenzen und Kontinuitäten in den Mythologien und Kulten der zwei antiken Göttinnen Artemis und Aphrodite sowie der frühchristlichen Figurierung und Verehrung Marias. Mit Hilfe verschiedener Quellensorten wird forschungsgestützt argumentiert, dass das erstarkende Christentum ältere pagane, polytheistische (und selbst hoch hybride) Kulte und Gottheiten synchretistisch adaptierte. Deutlich wird, wie die matristischen, in den beiden griechisch-römischen Göttinnen noch erinnerten Aspekte von gleichzeitiger Jungfräulichkeit und Mütterlichkeit einerseits mit dem Vorstellungskomplex von der menschlichen Empfängnis eines ‚Gottessohnes‘ andererseits verbunden und zur Deutung der ‚jungfräulichen Gottesmutter Maria‘ genutzt wurden, um so, funktionsgeschichtlich gelesen, den androzentrischen Wegfall weiblicher Gottheiten kompensieren zu helfen.
