61	Feng shui: implications of selected principles for holistic nursing care of the open heart patient Murray, Barbara June 01 1900 (has links) This qualitative study sought to explore the Hong Kong Chinese patient's perceptions of an Intensive Care experience and their views on the introduction of feng shui principles focussing on sleep orientations, dietary management and exercise regimes. The study explored the background of feng shui as an authentic traditional Chinese belief. It also explores if incorporating these feng shui principles into the health care setting would provide a positive effect for open-heart patients in an Intensive Care Unit at the Hong Kong Adventist Hospital in Hong Kong. The major inference drawn from this study is that Chinese patients seek culturally related experiences from the health care setting. The Chinese informants showed strong belief patterns in traditional practices of feng shui, however, practiced these within the confines of their homes as these experiences were denied to them in the hospital setting. / Health Studies / M.A. (Nursing Science) Feng shui Balance and harmony Yin and yang theory Transcultural nursing Five Elements Theory Chi Sleep orientation Cardic rehabilitation Diet and exercise 617.412 Feng shui Holistic nursing Heart -- Diseases -- Patients Transcultural nursing Yin-yang Qi (Chinese philosophy) Five agents (Chinese philosophy)

67	Shi in Architecture: the Efficacy of Traditional Chinese Doors Zhu, Qi 20 June 2008 (has links) This dissertation explores the concept of shi manifested in traditional Chinese architecture by examining the efficacy of the traditional Chinese house doors. Three connotations of the concept of shi derived from different philosophical schools of thought during the Warring States Period: the advantageous shi, the authoritative shi and the self-so-doing shi, are re-engaged as the theoretical framework for this study. The three categories of shi correspondingly shed light on the understanding of the craftiness in architectural constructions, the embodied cultural meanings in building elements and the aesthetics achieved by the artful arrangement of building elements. This study also further reveals the essential nature of shi as weak and amorphous in parallel with the weak ontology proposed by Gianni Vattimo. It is this weak and amorphous nature of shi that results in the complexity, diversity and richness of traditional Chinese house doors. This new perspective of examining architecture through the lens of shi also provides a way for looking at the future development of Chinese architecture beyond the limitations of internationalism yet within the realm of a critical local modernity. / Ph.

68	Per Nørgård’s “I Ching” : Analysis of the 4’th movement, “Towards Completion. Fire over Water” Munteanu, Alexandru January 2024 (has links) This thesis covers pretty much everything about the 4’th movement of “I Ching” by Per Nørgård (“IV. Towards Completion. Fire over Water”). I have delved deep into an analysis, that helped me develop my own interpretation and understanding of the piece. While I was doing my research, I discovered fascinating links between music and mathematics, that showed me how much we don’t know and that there are interesting subjects left for us to find. My exploration did not stop there just yet, I also found out about the “I Ching”, an ancient Chinese book, that covers a broad topic, which can be summed up in two words: Yin & Yang. This, combined with a bit of mathematics contributed to the creation of a unique vocabulary that Per Nørgård pioneered, called: “infinity series”. My thesis aim is to promote Per Nørgård’s music, that has not yet been discovered by enough percussionists.

69	《東坡易傳》研究 / Study of "Dongpo Yi Zhuan" 楊子萱, Yang ,Tze Hsuan Unknown Date (has links) 本文共分為九章，三十節。首先點出《東坡易傳》的哲學義理概要及其研究價值，由當時時代背景探究《東坡易傳》興起之源由，進而討論時代背景，瞭解其政治因素對學術思想的影響，從三蘇的思想流變到洛蜀黨爭等。本論文涉及面向包括《東坡易傳》的架構及其內涵、特色，分析蘇軾在《東坡易傳》對〈序卦〉的強調以及對〈雜卦〉的修訂，在《東坡易傳》的思想內涵，討論其儒、道、佛貫穿其中之思想特色，並做一綜述性的小結。而後針對《東坡易傳》卦爻的解釋方法闡述。在五、六、七章分別討論探討《東坡易傳》的宇宙觀、價值觀以及美學三大方面，可以說這三大方面為哲學探討的核心問題，所在這三個章節裡面，分別以宇宙觀、價值觀及美學為主軸，探討幾個重要的觀念。宇宙觀的部分包括其形上思想及「道」，分別論述幾個形上概念在卦爻中出現的情況以及其義理的分析。第六章的價值論即是指中國人所注重的傳統人倫，包括人生哲學、社群生活、家庭、社會、國家等等，本章亦是提出幾個概念作為一主軸思考深入探析，從其心性問題進而討論宋儒注重的性命問題。在價值觀的部分首先會說明宋以前的心性說，然後由蘇軾對前代學者的批評發現其中心思想，批評之後在進而說明《東坡易傳》對「性」論觀點，在美學的部分，第七章乃由《東坡易傳》發現蘇軾這樣一個文學氣質蓋天下的大家，敢批評吳道子，善為文人畫、書法自成一格，為北宋四大家之一，知音律、曉醫藥，堪稱吾所不學無所不能無所不見，對美學思想的把握及闡發。此三個章節的預期效果是希望由宇宙觀、價值觀到美學之間的環節，探討《東坡易傳》對生活世界、對天下萬物的一種生生不息的態度。最後以時代點來作為一檢視標準，將蘇軾的觀點與宋代的同時代的學者比較，例如程頤以及南宋的朱熹，並由其中分歧之處作交互評論，藉以發揮了解其不同的涵義。本論文展望性之角度重新審視《東坡易傳》，一方面探究《東坡易傳》思想的內在困難與種種問題、一方面總結《東坡易傳》的特色與影響，另一方面討論的是《東坡易傳》之發展及其後世價值。東坡易傳蘇軾易蜀學程朱易學美學形上性命陰陽 Dongpo Yi Zhuan Su Shih I Ching Yi Zhuan Chen Yi'sannotated I Ching Aesthetic Metaphysical Study of meaning Yin Yang moral
70	Ecofeminism: towards integrating the concerns of women, poor people and nature into development Nhanenge, Jytte 02 1900 (has links) Ecofeminism perceives an interconnection between the domination of women and poor people, and the domination of nature. This domination is founded on modern, Western, patriarchal, dualised structures, which subordinate all considered as "the other" compared to the superior masculine archetype. Hence, all feminine is seen as inferior and may therefore be exploited. This is presently manifested in the neo-liberal economic development ideal. Its global penetration generates huge economic profits, which are reaped by Northern and Southern elites, while its devastating crises of poverty, violence, environmental destruction, and human rights abuses makes life increasingly unmanageable for Southern women, poor people and nature. Feminism and ecology have therefore come together aiming at liberating women, poor people and nature. They want to change the dualised, reductionist perception of reality into a holistic cosmology. Ecofeminism consequently aims to integrate the concerns of women, poor people and nature into development. / Development Studies / M.A. (Development Studies) Ecological movements Green Belt movement Alternative world-views Systems theory Yin and yang Smuts' holism Economics and technology Feminist critique of science Development ethics Environmental ethics Development theory Post-development Post-modernism Patriarchal domination Global crises Poverty issues Gender issues Environment and development Women Feminism Ecofeminism Chipko movement 304.2082 Women environmentalists Ecofeminism Human ecology Women in development Women -- Social conditions Women -- Economic conditions Sustainable development Environmentalism Conservation of natural resources Women and the environment
