Matthieu d'Aquasparta (v. 1240-1302) est une figure emblématique de la fin du XIIIe siècle. Maître en théologie de l'Université de Paris, son oeuvre est abondante ; franciscain, il est élu ministre général de l'Ordre ; nommé cardinal par Nicolas IV, il est un des plus fidèles alliés du pape Boniface VIII. Pourtant, malgré ses écrits et son parcours politique, Matthieu d'Aquasparta ne connaîtra aucune postérité avant d'être redécouvert au début du XXe siècle. Son oeuvre de théologien acquiert une place croissante dans les analyses des historiens et des philosophes médiévistes grâce aux éditions de ses Questions disputées, publiées par les frères de Quaracchi ; les interprétations s'affinent progressivement : après l'avoir longtemps considéré comme un « néo-augustinien » convaincu, les historiens s'interrogent sur sa place parmi les franciscains de sa génération, son lien avec Thomas d'Aquin et ses rapports avec la tradition aristotélicienne. L'édition de ses six Quodlibets disputés à Paris et à la Curie pontificale offre de nombreuses perspectives de recherches. Ces textes sont conservés principalement dans deux manuscrits, un autographe et une copie corrigée par l'auteur ; il s'agit par conséquent d'un témoignage exceptionnel pour étudier le travail d'un maître en théologie. L’analyse de ses manuscrits (autographes et manuscrits de travail) complétée par l’étude du contenu des questions éditées permettent d’esquisser une introduction biographique du personnage. La diversité des questions quodlibétiques contribue ainsi à éclairer différents aspects de la pensée du maître sur des sujets aussi divers et précis que la forme substantielle unique ou le métier des avocats et des juges. / Matthew of Aquasparta (v. 1240-1302) could be seen for many reasons as an emblematic figure at the end of the thirteenth century. He was a master of theology at the University of Paris and wrote many works ; as a Franciscan, he was elected as Minister general of the Order ; he was nominated cardinal by Nicolas IV and was one of the most faithful allies of Bonifacius VIII. However, in spite of his position as a master of theology and as a cardinal, Matthew of Aquasparta did not become a famous historical figure and only became acknowledged at the beginning of the twentieth century. His work as a theologian became more and more important in the studies of historians and medievalist philosophers, thanks to the editions of his Disputed questions published by the Quaracchi brothers ; the interpretations became more and more refined : historians considered him as a “neo-Augustinian”, but they recently wondered about his place among the contemporary Franciscans, his links with Thomas Aquinas and his connection with the Aristotelian tradition. This work is based on an edition of his six Quodlibeta. It is completed by some studies and commentaries which throw light on his life and on different sides of his work. The master’s Quodlibeta are kept on an autograph and on a copy corrected by Matthew himself ; his manuscripts are important testimonies to study the process of writing and the work of a theologian master. The variety of sources and the diversity of themes in his Quodlibeta (the unicity of substantial form or the ethics of advocates and juges) enables us to understand his historical importance better and to clarify his part in the intellectual and political context at the end of the thirteenth century.

Magister Artium - MA / My study begins by looking at the ways in which ZK Matthews has been remembered. I raise questions about his legacy in the post-apartheid period, in relation to the limited ways in which he has been studied and in relation to the broader politics of memory. What follows this is an analysis of ZK’s political and educational writings, as a new way of thinking about his intellectual contributions to nationalist thought. Chapter one of this thesis will raise questions about the legacy and memory of ZK in the postapartheid moment. I analyze both the popular and the scholarly representations of ZK as have been attempted by people and organizations to remember him. The popular representations of ZK have been produced by the University of Fort Hare, through an exhibition of his life and legacy and an Annual Memorial Lectures. ZK we must recall, was once a student, a lecturer and Rector of the university. On the scholarly side there is only one existing attempt to produce an auto/biography, one by ZK himself and edited with memoirs by Monica Hunter Wilson. The name of the book is Freedom For My People published in 1981. I analyze the circumstances of the production of this book. And secondly I point out that the interest here was on the liberal-Christian view of ZK. It focused on ZK’s relationships with people of different kinds, his service at Fort Hare and the public society, and the ANC. I also provide an analysis of two seminar papers by Paul Rich (1994) and Cynthia Kros (1990), and one long essay by William Saayman (1996). All these studies so not attempt to produce a discourse on the nationalist thought of ZK, rather they focus on limited archival work and they rely on the ambit of liberalism and Christianity to understand ZK.

This essay compares Wordsworth’s and Arnold’s conceptions of nature and suggests reasons for the differences found. Both poets were keenly sensitive to the leveliness of the external world, and found in nature a soothing and healing power for the troubled mind of man. Both derived sensuous enjoyment from the beauties of nature, and found in nature permanence, peace, and tranquillity. The fundamental difference in their doctrines of nature is in their conceptions of abstract nature. To Wordsworth, nature was a benevolent force which actively participated in the moral and spiritual growth of man. His was a doctrine of joy and optimism. To Arnold, nature was a great and indifferent force which man must transcend. His was a doctrine of stoicism and pessimism. The differences are mainly due to the progress in science and thought from the mid-eighteenth to the mid-nineteenth century. Wordsworth inherited the eighteenth century belief in a benevolent and all-powerful Deity, who manifested his goodness in nature. By a synthesis of this philosophy, the assumptions of associationist psychology, and his own experience, he explained the moral and spiritual growth of man. Wordsworth believed that through love of nature, man was led to love of his fellow man and of God. He believed that nature participated in man’s moral growth, through the senses, with the aid of some super-sensuous power – ‘a superadded soul’, an ‘auxilier light’, which he believed to be the imagination. Through semi-mystical and visionary experiences, he became convinced of the unity between the soul of man and the soul of nature. This was the source of his joy in nature. Arnold took for granted many of the assumptions of nineteenth century science regarding nature. Through these, and his own search for truth, he lost faith in a benevolent force in the universe. He saw no evidence of harmony or teleological purpose in nature. He found in nature only an edifying example of tranquility, steadfastness, and stoicism. The central tenet of his doctrine was of the superiority of man over nature, through his reason and conscience. On a broader basis, the change in attitude to nature between Wordsworth and Arnold is due to the changed conception of men’s place in the Chain of Being. In the eighteenth century, man held the most important earthly place in nature’s Chain of Being. In the nineteenth century, he lost that place. The Industrial Revolution created a materialistic world in which only the fittest survived economically. Biologists and zoologists reduced man to the level of all other creatures. He lost his favoured place in the Chain of Being, and for him nature lost all order and purposiveness. A pessimistic view of nature was logical and common. / Arts, Faculty of / English, Department of / Graduate

Peter's faith in the context of Jesus's epiphany on the sea. Analysis of an excerpt from the gospel according to Matthew 14, 22 - 33 with respect to the experience of faith of the Apostle Peter. The study deals with the analysis of an excerpt from the gospel of Matthew about Jesus's epiphany on the sea (Mt. 14, 22 - 33) with regard to actions of the Apostle Peter. The first part is dedicated to the text of the pericope itself, its origin, placement and function in the gospel of Matthew. Literary and textual analysis is performed mainly by comparison with analogical excerpts from other gospels, especially the gospel of Mark. Due to this, the unique message of Matthew's gospel, which is Peter's behaviour as the answer of faith to the manifestation of Jesus's divinity, is revealed. The evangelist thus unravels a vast composition about the church. The figure of the Apostle Peter, his role and meaning within the whole text of the gospel is the subject of the second part of the thesis. The picture of the first disciple is characterized not only by an exemplary faith, but also by a failure and an example of human weakness. This fact leads to the question about what was the goal that the evangelist followed by describing the negative aspects of Peter's actions. The third part deals with the fundamental...

Text in German with summaries in German and English / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 204-212) / Das Matthäusevangelium ist in seiner literarischen Form eine Erzählung. Jesus und die Bedeutung seines Lebens sowie der göttlichen Sendung bilden dabei die zentrale Rolle. Die narrative Exegese ist somit für die Untersuchung der Lehrmethoden Jesu in der Darstellungsweise von Matthäus besonders dazu geeignet, die Lehrmethoden zu analysieren und literarisch zu charakterisieren. Eine Untersuchung der Lehrmethoden Jesu zeigt, dass Jesus auf besondere Art und Weise die Jünger schult, begleitet und herausfordert. Dazu werden zentrale Texte aus dem Matthäusevangelium, in denen die Lehrmethoden Jesu und der Lernprozess der Jünger deutlich werden, zunächst identifiziert, eingegrenzt und narrativ untersucht. Mit diesen Ergebnissen werden in einem weiteren Schritt die Lehrmethoden Jesu mit erlebnispädagogischen Methoden verglichen. Auf dieser Grundlage werden die Darstellung und Charakteristik der Lehrmethoden Jesu erarbeitet, um so mögliche nicht-offensichtliche Bedeutungen der Darstellung von Jesu Lehrtätigkeit und seinen Methoden zu entdecken. / The Gospel of Matthew is a narrative in its literary form. Jesus, the meaning of his life, and his divine mission constitute the central message of the Gospel of Matthew. The narrative exegesis of Matthew is especially suited to the analysis and literary characterization of the teaching methods of Jesus. Numerous passages show what special methods Christ used to instruct, accompany, and challenge his disciples. Essential passages of the Gospel of Matthew which reveal the teaching methods of Jesus and learning process of the disciple are first identified, then narrowed down, and finally analyzed in their narrative. The results of Jesus’ teaching methods are subsequently compared with contemporary experiential education. The presentation and characteristic of the teaching methods of Jesus are compiled in this manner in order to discover possible non- obvious meanings in the account of the teaching of Jesus and his methods. / New Testament / M.

"Architecture of Acupuncture" refers to one way an architect may begin a design project. This thesis was a one-year collaborative effort with my Masters Diploma Professors, Peter Zumthor and Miguel Kreisler, at the Academy of Architecture in Mendrisio, Switzerland, in 2001. To begin, a surgical study of a place just south of Pavia, Italy, was conducted and analyzed to determine the most appropriate program for that place, and again analyzed to determine the most appropriate image and material for that program. I located points in the immediate area of the site where 1.water, 2.road, 3.built mass, and 4.event, intersect on the site and called these "points of convergence." The points of convergence were used to map out a unique way in which the site can be read. These are the acupuncture points on the body of the place. The project is an Industrial Fish Farm. It is the largest fish farm in Europe and sells fish to all of Northern Italy, Switzerland, Germany, Austria and France, while also serving fresh fish daily to the small towns of Mezzana Corti, Tre Re, and Cascina della Colonne approximate to it. The Farm is one and a half kilometers of concrete water-filled fields inserted into an irregular shaped land-form between two 18 foot tall existing earth dams. The attitude of the Farm is a sensitive one in regard to the flat and quiet farming communities around it. The space the Fish Farm occupies cannot be seen unless from the roads which each run on top of the dams themselves. Two new structures are the only things that can be seen from outside the dams. One is a tower building. One is a line building. The line building is a restaurant, ninety meters long. The Restaurant enhances the industrial program by offering back to the people of the nearby towns an opportunity to actively interact with the new farm. The Restaurant is clamped to the South Dam Road, which is used for public traffic around perimeter of the site. The tower building is the Operations Building. It acts as an aircraft control tower does for an aircraft carrier, consolidating all built mass into one central structure. The Operations Building is a landmark at the midpoint of the concrete fields. It is clamped to the North Dam Road, dedicated to the daily functioning of the Farm. Both structures are shack-like and cheap; both made well of steel and corrugated metal. All built things inside the body of the Farm, including the two buildings, adopt in their appearances an "insect image" from the machines used to harvest the fish. They are raised up on long and thin steel legs so as to lightly touch the still water they stand in. / Master of Architecture

In the middle decade of the thirteenth century, the Benedictine monk and historian Matthew Paris drew four regional maps of Britain. The monk's works stand as the earliest extant maps of the island and mark a distinct shift from the cartographic traditions of medieval Europe. Historians have long considered the version attached to the monk's Abbreviatio Chronicorum – the Claudius map – as the last and most thorough of Paris's images of Britain. However, scholars have focused on the document's limitations as an accurate geographic representation and have failed to consider critically Paris's representation of Britain with an eye towards its political implications. This thesis is an examination of the elements of the Claudius map, in context with the monk's historical writings, to argue that Paris's map of Britain should be studied as an aggressive cultural artifact through which the monk posited imperial English claims to suzerainty over the whole of the island.
