This thesis studies al-Ghazali's theory of knowledge, particularly his concept of knowledge of God in his three later works: "The book of Knowledge" of the Ih&dotbelow;ya', al-Munqidh, and Iljam al-`Awamm. From his conception of knowledge of God the first book of the Ih&dotbelow;ya ', to his criticism of various approaches to attaining the knowledge of God in the Munqidh, to his assertion of the best method for attaining the knowledge of God in the Iljam, the aim of the current study is to find out which faculty of man's perception, according to al-Ghazali, is the most appropriate for accessing Divinity. Since al-Ghazali's three works studied here---were composed in different periods, and since the Iljam was completed only a few days before his death, the objective of this study is then to see if there is any change, or development, in al-Ghazali's position regarding the issue of knowledge of God during the later period of his life.

L'Ethique prétend nous conduire comme par la main vers la béatitude et le salut, Elle nous montre le chemin qui nous permet, en associant le plus possible nos affects à des idées vraies, de parvenir à la connaissance vraie et à l'amour de Dieu. A qui s'adresse l' « Ethique » ? Notre hypothèse est qu'elle s'adresse aux mêmes lecteurs que ceux du « Traité théologico-politique » qui philosopheraient plus librement s'ils n'en étaient empêchés par l'idée que la raison doit être la servante de la théologie. Après avoir montré que l'Ecriture Sainte devait être interprétée avant d'être affirmée Parole de Dieu, que la certitude prophétique n'était qu'une certitude morale, Spinoza propose la certitude mathématique de l'entendement, comme véritable parole de Dieu qui parle directement à notre âme, Dieu qui se fait connaître, non comme un Dieu transcendant, mais comme un Dieu immanent, cause efficiente de toutes choses et donc de nos idées claires et distinctes, qui nous permettront de découvrir un Dieu qui agit librement par nécessité de nature, en totale opposition avec les doctrines scolastique et cartésienne. Cette révélation rationnelle n'annule néanmoins pas la révélation prophétique dont la vérité ne se trouve pas dans la spéculation, mais dans les enseignements moraux, et surtout par le message d'amour du Christ, modèle de vie vraie. Mais si le but ultime de chacune des révélations est de jouir de l'amour de Dieu, quelle est en chacune la nature de cet amour ?Ethic purports to lead us, as if by the band, towards beatitude and salvation. It shows us the way which allows us, by associating as much as possible our affects to real ideas, to attain true knowledge and the love of God. Whom does “Ethics” address ? Our hypothesis is that it addresses the same readers as the “Theologico-Political Treatise” does, who would philosophize more f eely would they not be prevented from it by the thought that reason should serve theology. After having shown that scripture should be interpreted before being claimed God's word, that prophetic certainty was just moral certainty, Spinoza offers the mathematical certainty of understanding, as the true word of God which speaks directly to our soul ; God who becomes known not as a transcendental God but as an immanent God, efficient cause of all things and thus of our ideas, distinct and clear, which shall allow us to discover a God which acts feely out of necessity of nature, in outright opposition to the scholastic and Cartesian doctrines. This rational revelation nonetheless does not cancel the prophetic revelation, which truth isn't in speculation, but in moral teachings, and especially by in Christ's message of love, model of true life. But if the ultimate goal of each of the revelations is to enjoy the love of God, what is in each of them the nature of this love?

Cette thèse de doctorat est consacrée à la reconnaissance de concepts visuels (VCR pour "Visual Concept Recognition"). En raison des nombreuses difficultés qui la caractérisent, cette tâche est toujours considérée comme l’une des plus difficiles en vision par ordinateur et reconnaissance de formes. Dans ce contexte, nous avons proposé plusieurs contributions, particulièrement dans le cadre d’une approche de reconnaissance multimodale combinant efficacement les informations visuelles et textuelles. Tout d’abord, nous avons étudié différents types de descripteurs visuels de bas-niveau sémantique pour la tâche de VCR incluant des descripteurs de couleur, de texture et de forme. Plus précisément, nous pensons que chaque concept nécessite différents descripteurs pour le caractériser efficacement pour permettre sa reconnaissance automatique. Ainsi, nous avons évalué l’efficacité de diverses représentations visuelles, non seulement globales comme la couleur, la texture et la forme, mais également locales telles que SIFT, Color SIFT, HOG, DAISY, LBP et Color LBP. Afin de faciliter le franchissement du fossé sémantique entre les descripteurs bas-niveau et les concepts de haut niveau sémantique, et particulièrement ceux relatifs aux émotions, nous avons proposé des descripteurs visuels de niveau intermédiaire basés sur l’harmonie visuelle et le dynamisme exprimés dans les images. De plus, nous avons utilisé une décomposition spatiale pyramidale des images pour capturer l’information locale et spatiale lors de la construction des descripteurs d’harmonie et de dynamisme. Par ailleurs, nous avons également proposé une nouvelle représentation reposant sur les histogrammes de couleur HSV en utilisant un modèle d’attention visuelle pour identifier les régions d’intérêt dans les images. Ensuite, nous avons proposé un nouveau descripteur textuel dédié au problème de VCR. En effet, la plupart des photos publiées sur des sites de partage en ligne (Flickr, Facebook, ...) sont accompagnées d’une description textuelle sous la forme de mots-clés ou de légende. Ces descriptions constituent une riche source d’information sur la sémantique contenue dans les images et il semble donc particulièrement intéressant de les considérer dans un système de VCR. Ainsi, nous avons élaboré des descripteurs HTC ("Histograms of Textual Concepts") pour capturer les liens sémantiques entre les concepts. L’idée générale derrière HTC est de représenter un document textuel comme un histogramme de concepts textuels selon un dictionnaire (ou vocabulaire), pour lequel chaque valeur associée à un concept est l’accumulation de la contribution de chaque mot du texte pour ce concept, en fonction d’une mesure de distance sémantique. Plusieurs variantes de HTC ont été proposées qui se sont révélées être très efficaces pour la tâche de VCR. Inspirés par la démarche de l’analyse cepstrale de la parole, nous avons également développé Cepstral HTC pour capturer à la fois l’information de fréquence d’occurrence des mots (comme TF-IDF) et les liens sémantiques entre concepts fournis par HTC à partir des mots-clés associés aux images. Enfin, nous avons élaboré une méthode de fusion (SWLF pour "Selective Weighted Later Fusion") afin de combiner efficacement différentes sources d’information pour le problème de VCR. Cette approche de fusion est conçue pour sélectionner les meilleurs descripteurs et pondérer leur contribution pour chaque concept à reconnaître. SWLF s’est révélé être particulièrement efficace pour fusion des modalités visuelles et textuelles, par rapport à des schémas de fusion standards. [...]This Ph.D thesis is dedicated to visual concept recognition (VCR). Due to many realistic difficulties, it is still considered to be one of the most challenging problems in computer vision and pattern recognition. In this context, we have proposed some innovative contributions for the task of VCR, particularly in building multimodal approaches that efficiently combine visual and textual information. Firstly, we have proposed semantic features for VCR and have investigated the efficiency of different types of low-level visual features for VCR including color, texture and shape. Specifically, we believe that different concepts require different features to efficiently characterize them for the recognition. Therefore, we have investigated in the context of VCR various visual representations, not only global features including color, shape and texture, but also the state-of-the-art local visual descriptors such as SIFT, Color SIFT, HOG, DAISY, LBP, Color LBP. To help bridging the semantic gap between low-level visual features and high level semantic concepts, and particularly those related to emotions and feelings, we have proposed mid-level visual features based on the visual harmony and dynamism semantics using Itten’s color theory and psychological interpretations. Moreover, we have employed a spatial pyramid strategy to capture the spatial information when building our mid-level features harmony and dynamism. We have also proposed a new representation of color HSV histograms by employing a visual attention model to identify the regions of interest in images. Secondly, we have proposed a novel textual feature designed for VCR. Indeed, most of online-shared photos provide textual descriptions in the form of tags or legends. In fact, these textual descriptions are a rich source of semantic information on visual data that is interesting to consider for the purpose of VCR or multimedia information retrieval. We propose the Histograms of Textual Concepts (HTC) to capture the semantic relatedness of concepts. The general idea behind HTC is to represent a text document as a histogram of textual concepts towards a vocabulary or dictionary, whereas its value is the accumulation of the contribution of each word within the text document toward the underlying concept according to a predefined semantic similarity measure. Several variants of HTC have been proposed that revealed to be very efficient for VCR. Inspired by the Cepstral speech analysis process, we have also developed Cepstral HTC to capture both term frequency-based information (like TF-IDF) and the relatedness of semantic concepts in the sparse image tags, which overcomes the HTC’s shortcoming of ignoring term frequency-based information. Thirdly, we have proposed a fusion scheme to combine different sources of Later Fusion, (SWLF) is designed to select the best features and to weight their scores for each concept to be recognized. SWLF proves particularly efficient for fusing visual and textual modalities in comparison with some other standard fusion schemes. While a late fusion at score level is reputed as a simple and effective way to fuse features of different nature for machine-learning problems, the proposed SWLF builds on two simple insights. First, the score delivered by a feature type should be weighted by its intrinsic quality for the classification problem at hand. Second, in a multi-label scenario where several visual concepts may be assigned to an image, different visual concepts may require different features which best recognize them. In addition to SWLF, we also propose a novel combination approach based on Dempster-Shafer’s evidence theory, whose interesting properties allow fusing different ambiguous sources of information for visual affective recognition.

This thesis presents a critical analysis on the self in relation to the concept of God in writings and discourse of Bediuzzaman Said Nursi. He has lived between 1876-1960 as not only a religious scholar but also as an activist in Turkey. Another particular importance of this study is that Nursi’s ideas about the self in relation to the concept of God have been discussed together with mainstream western and Islamic thoughts. For Bediuzzaman Said Nursi a true understanding of the concept of self is essential to fulfil the true potential as an individual. Dynamic and ever changing structure of the self can be understood by anā which is a subjective tool acting as a unit of measure. In other words it is just an image (anā) on the mirror (nafs), which reflects and shows the Divine Names and Attributes. However if anā and nafs are not guided by Divine Revelation and Sunnah, they can easily claim to be the source and owner of what is reflected on the mirror. Bediuzzaman Said Nursi has a completely different understanding of the universe and the concept of self, compared to many of the western philosophers and thinkers. For him it is important to grasp the reality of things which may ultimately lead to a better understanding of the Divine (m‘arifah). And grasping the reality of things is only possible if one can obtain a stand point to reach out to the meaning of things in a domain not limited to his benefit only. According to him this is possible through a proper understanding of the concepts like nafs and anā.

The project of this thesis is to begin the task of re-assessing the notion of personhood, particularly in respect of its role in the Christian doctrine of the Trinity, in the light of post-structuralist critical theory. Taking Jacques Derrida's critique of western thought as its starting point, the author attempts to undertake a deconstructive reading of the notion of pesonhood and its conceptual background through the texts of philosophy and theology. In Chapter 1 the author portrays, in the style of cultural criticism, the central themes of Hebrew and Greek thought, and tradition has dominated our western thought, yet our Hebraic heritage remains important. In juxtaposing these two traditions the author sets up two terrains upon which the critique will be developed. The critique begins in Chapter 2. The author explores the way in which philosophy has marginalised the polysemous features of language. The author argues that it is in these features, and not in the logical structures of analysis, that the essence of language lies. The author goes on to portray language as risk taking. The author then examines the ways in which philosophy has attempted to master the `flux' of change and temporality by privileging the present. The author establishes, through a re-reading of Husserl, that an escape from the flux is impossible. Using Kierkegaard's notion of repetition, he distinguishes two movements in which Being is possible amidst the flux, viz. recollection and repetition. The author goes on to discuss the approaches of three philosophers, Aquinas, Heidegger, and Derrida, who recognize in Being a differential structure. Three key terms are picked out for special examination: Aquinas' use of the term subsistentia in his understanding of Being per se, Heidegger's notion of the Ereignis, and Derrida's exposition of difference. Finally, the author presents his own account of Being in terms of the movements of recollection and repetition. Here the political and ethical prejudice which underpins the conceptual framework of the tradition becomes exposed. The author then develops an account of personhood drawing on the work of Emmanuel Levinas. Being is to be understood in terms of the relation of identity and alterity, a relation of responsibility. This results in a re-interpretation of the themes of Ereignis, difféance, and subsistentia. The author goes on to examine Levinas' notion of `being in responsibility', explaining it in terms of the movement of repetition. This leads to an interpretation of the meaning of pesonhood in terms of the meaning of the word persona. Finally, the author demonstrates that persons only `come to be' in the context of society, in which `being as responsibility' issues forth as a concern for justice, and it is out of the concern for justice that consciousness is born. On this basis, the author argues that all language is fundamentally theological. If, as Levinas argues, all speech bears witness to the Infinite as a concern for justice between persons in society, then in this witness the Trinity is revealed. The author goes on to discuss the attempts of Moltmann and Zizioulas to explain the Trinity in social rather than ontological terms. Developing their insights, the author goes on to sketch out an account of the Trinity as the foundation and source of the divine life and being, which in turn is to be understood in ethical terms - as infinite justice. The whole argument is presented within the framework of extracts from T.S. Eliot's `Four Quartets', to which the argument adverts, and to which the body of the thesis acts as an indirect commentary.

CONSELHO NACIONAL DE DESENVOLVIMENTO CIENTÍFICO E TECNOLÓGICOSubjacente à teoria dos números ordinais transfinitos de Cantor, há uma perspectiva finitista. Segundo tal perspectiva, Deus pode bem ordenar o infinito usando, para tanto, de procedimentos similares ao ato de contar, entendido como o ato de bem ordenar o finito. Desta maneira, um diálogo natural entre Cantor e Dedekind torna-se possível, dado que Dedekind foi o primeiro a tratar o ato de contar como sendo, em sua essência, uma forma de bem ordenar o mundo espáciotemporal pelos números naturais. Nesta tese, o conceito de número ordinal transfinito, de Cantor, é entendido como uma extensão do conceito dedekindiano de número natural.
Underlying Cantor s transfinite ordinal numbers theory, there is a finistic perspective. Accordingly that perspective, God can well order the infinite using, for that, similar procedures to the act of counting, understood as the act of well order the finite. That s why a natural dialog between Cantor and Dedekind becomes possible, since Dedekind was the first to consider the act of counting as being, in its essence, a way of well order the spatial-temporal world by natural numbers. In this thesis, the concept of Cantor´s transfinite ordinal number is understood as an extension of dedekindian concept of natural number.

PONTIFÍCIA UNIVERSIDADE CATÓLICA DO RIO DE JANEIROO conceito de Deus é algo que se forma na mente humana. Ao longo da vida, diferentes culturas, povos, línguas e nações sempre acharam a imagem de Deus como seus costumes e experiências. De modo particular, as nossas Igrejas tenham comunicado a mensagem do Evangelho que recebeu através da Sagrada Escritura e transmitidos pela tradição ao longo dos séculos. Quando o verdadeiro espírito da lei é perdida, a conclusão é que a letra mata. Isso é o que aconteceu com o conceito de Deus quando se tornou um motivo de perseguição, exclusão e medo. O teólogo espanhol Andrés Torres Queiruga pesquisa através da reflexão sobre este assunto, envolvendo um repensar da teologia hoje, porque com o advento da modernidade o paradigma de pensamento humano mudou por conta da revolução cultural. A perspectiva de um mundo onde os eventos naturais foram atribuídos a Deus ou ao diabo, de acordo com o que era bom ou ruim, não cabe mais hoje, como a ciência considera o mundo regido por leis naturais autônomas. Nesse caso, esta visão mítica de Deus se torna para a modernidade, supérflua, como a sua explicação causal antiga, trouxe um grande dano para a fé. Queiruga procura em Jesus de Nazaré vida, o núcleo da experiência do Abba. A verdadeira resposta cristã a essa situação, apresenta o rosto terno de Deus revelada pelo Messias. Esta experiência paterna de Deus traz alegria e dá consciência de realização existencial plena para quem encontrar o prazer em sentir a filiação divina.
The concept of God is something that forms in the human mind. Along life, different cultures, peoples, languages and nations have always found the image of God as their customs and experiences. In a particular way, our Churches have communicated the Gospel message they received through the Holy Scripture and handed down by tradition along the centuries. When the real spirit of the law is lost, the conclusion is that letter kills. That s what happened to the concept of God when it became a reason for exclusion, persecution and fear. The Spanish theologian Andres Torres Queiruga searches through reflection on this subject, an involving rethink of theology today, because with the advent of modernity, the human thinking paradigm has changed on account of the cultural revolution. The perspective of a world where natural events were attributed to God or the devil, according to what was good or bad, no longer fits today, as science considers the world governed by autonomous natural laws. In such case, this mythic vision of God becomes for modernity, superfluous, as their former causal explanation, has brought great harm to faith. Queiruga searches in Jesus of Nazareth’s life, the core of Abba’s experience. The truly Christian response to this situation, presents the tender face of God revealed by the Messiah. This God s paternal experience brings joy and the conscience of full existential realization for the one who find pleasure in feeling divine filiation.

Entendue communement aujourd'hui comme la periode historique s'etendant du ive millenaire avant l'ere chretienne au ve siecle apres j. -c. , l'antiquite comme concept prend naissance dans le milieu humaniste des la seconde moitie du xive siecle en italie, puis dans le reste de l'europe aux xve et xvie siecles. L'antiquite est d'abord une idee, forgee par l'interpretation humaniste et renaissante dela culture greco-romaine, et represente alors le temps mythique de la perfection originelle. De cette conception, issue pour une large part des acquis juridiques lies aux redecouvertes successives du prestigieux heritage du droit romain, etait ne un moyen age, ere intermediaire comprise comme decadence culturelle, que la renaissance cloturait precisement en reinventant les valeurs greco-romaines antiques. Cette vision tripartite du temps de l'histoire posait les fondements intellectuels de la periodisation en antiquite. Moyen age, temps modernes. Au cours des xviiie et xixe siecles, l'essor de l'archeologie historique mais aussi prehistorique fait eclater le cadre classique de l'antiquite jusque-la circonscrite a rome et athenes, et assure son passage d'un temps mythique a un temps historique. Les decouvertes de pompei, herculanum ou troie, ainsi que les progres graduels de la connaissance des civilisations egyptienne et mesopotamienne determinent la conscience d'un temps de l'histoire remontant largement au-dela de la grece et meme au-dela de l'histoire, en forgeant un temps de la prehistoire, distingue du precedent par le critere culturel de l'ecriture. A ce titre, la configuration contemporaine du concept periodologique d'antiquite est la traduction scientifique et didactique des mutations epistemologiques successives qui affecterent les temps anciens de l'histoire, et que refletent et consacrent tant la science de l'histoire du droit que les manuels scolaires republicains des dernieres decennies du xixe siecle, 'siecle de l'histoire', et du debut du xxe siecle.

La thèse ci-présente a pour objectif d introduire une discussion concernant le corps dans la psychose et les contributions du concept de lettre chez Lacan. Pour ce faire, nous ouvrons avec une réflexion à propos du concept de corps chez Freud et quelques différences fondamentales par rapport au corps organique tel qu il est pensé par la médecine. Nous introduisons ensuite des réflexions concernant la spécificité du corps dans la psychose à partir de Freud. Quelques contributions à propos du corps chez Lacan sont également abordées : sa relation avec la construction de l image spéculaire, le concept de phallus et d objet a. Nous apportons alors quelques contributions à propos du concept de lettre chez Lacan ainsi que son importance dans la discussion du corps dans la psychose. Le choix du concept de lettre chez Lacan est justifié par l intérêt de construire et de vérifier une hypothèse selon laquelle il peut être possible, pour le sujet psychotique, de construire un corps sans nécessairement passer par la référence phallique ni non plus par la métaphore délirante, mais par un travail d amarrage et de nouage des trois registres à partir d un bricolage des restes, des bouts de parole, ce que Lacan nomma la lettre.
Esta tese tem como objetivo introduzir uma discussão sobre o corpo na psicose e as contribuições do conceito de letra, em Jacques Lacan, para este tema. Para isso, abrimos uma reflexão sobre o conceito de corpo, em Sigmund Freud, e algumas diferenças fundamentais com relação ao corpo orgânico, tal como pensado pela medicina. Em seguida, introduzimos reflexões sobre a especificidade do corpo na psicose a partir de Freud. Também são abordadas algumas contribuições sobre o corpo, para Lacan, sua relação com a construção da imagem especular, o conceito de falo e de objeto a. Traremos, então, algumas contribuições sobre o conceito de letra, em Lacan, e sua importância para discussão sobre as possibilidades de construção de um corpo na psicose. A escolha pelo conceito de letra se justifica pelo interesse em construir e verificar uma hipótese, a saber, de que o sujeito psicótico pode construir um corpo sem passar pela referência fálica, nem pela metáfora delirante, mas sim por um trabalho de amarração e enodamento dos três registros – real, simbólico e imaginário –, a partir da bricolagem dos restos, cacos, pedaços da palavra, aquilo que Lacan chamou de letra.

The ancient Arabs used poetry not only to entertain themselves in the midst of their harsh life in the Arabian desert, but also to proclaim their cultural values, which were the moral-spiritual and material basis of their nomad society. Composing poetry therefore was almost a sacred rite for them. Its recitation in particular, was a main feature of certain ritual customs held annually during the aswaq (sg. suq , festival) season. The most common themes touched upon were the attributes of which a tribe may have been particularly proud, such as its victories and generosity to the vanquished, the bravery of its heroes in battle and on hard journeys, the beauty of its women and of nature, the genealogy of the tribe, and prayers to the Almighty.Through verse the ancient Arabs expressed how they conceived of their deities, whether, idols representing various gods and goddesses, or Allah. These verses make it clear that Allah alone was not represented by any idol, allowing us to infer that He was regarded as superior to other deities. This thesis, therefore, attempts to show how the ancient Arabs expressed through poetry their belief in Allah as the Lord of Gods, which was the true nature of their ancestral belief, the h&dotbelow;anifiyya, the religion of their forefathers Abraham and Ishmael.

This study focuses on three basic issues raised in the writings of Dietrich Bonhoeffer (1906-1945): (1) The "weakness of God," which goes hand in hand with the "scandal of the cross"; (2) Freeing Christianity from the concept of religion; (3) The "world come of age": its relevance for believers and non-believers alike. An enlightened critique of religion in no way equates joining the 'death of God' school; and the current demise of the visible church does not herald the downfall of Christian faith. The conclusion expresses the firm hope that a world shaped by two thousand years of Jesus' influence will find the basic orientation it needs for a renewed Christianity.Cette étude axée sur l'héritage de Dietrich Bonhoeffer (1906-1945) examine trois questions : (1) la « faiblesse de Dieu », étroitement reliée au "scandale de la croix" ; (2) le christianisme libéré du concept religieux ; (3) le « monde parvenu à maturité » et sa pertinence pour le croyant et pour le non-croyant. Une critique éclairée de la religion ne signifie pas qu'il faille joindre le mouvement dit de la « mort de Dieu », et l'actuelle pauvreté de l'église visible n'annonce en rien la fin de la foi chrétienne. La conclusion exprime l'espoir qu'un monde modelé sur l'enseignement de Jésus pendant deux millénaires trouvera les réponses fondamentales dont il a besoin dans un christianisme renouvelé.

Chingota, Felix L. B. „The use of the concept 'fear' in Deuteronomy to denote the relationship between God and Israel“. Thesis, University of Aberdeen, 1991. http://digitool.abdn.ac.uk:80/webclient/DeliveryManager?pid=128372.
Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAnnotation:
This thesis aims to clarify the exclusive use by the Deuteronomic writers of the root hskip 0.75cm to denote the relationship between God and Israel. This problem is raised by the fact that there were other roots - break vskip 0.2cm and hskip 0.6cm - which they could have used. In trying to explain the Deuteronomic use of the root hskip 0.75cm the insights of semantic theory according to which 'meaning' is defined in terms of 'sense-relations' a term contracts with other terms in the vocabulary of a given language have been used. Also used are the insights of field meaning analysis according to which the meaning of a term is defined in terms of its relationship with other terms within its lexical field. In this connection, the 'sense-relations' which the hskip 0.75cm contracts are compared with those which the other roots contract. In this way, the particular usage of the break root nobreak hskip 0.75cm vis-'a-vis the other roots is clarified. The work is, thus, accordingly divided into two parts. The first part deals with the description of the uses of the roots in the lexical field of 'fear' in Deuteronomy (chaps. 2 and 3), and a comparison of these uses (chap. 4). Part two begins with a description of the Deuteronomic context (chap. 5). This is followed in chapter six by a description of the uses of the break root nobreak hskip 0.75cm in Deuteronomy. The conclusion of this thesis is that hskip 0.75cm was appropriately used to denote the relationship between God and Israel because of its usage as a superordinate term in general and abstract terms, and because it is used in family context to denote the relationship of a child to his parents. Linguistics is a useful tool in biblical interpretation.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAnnotation:
This study presents a comparative analytical investigation of two divergent yet parallel doctrines of self-realization. John Dewey, a distinguished American thinker, represents a naturalist pragmatist conception of self-realization on the one hand, and 'Allama Tabataba'i, a renowned Muslim philosopher, an Islamic perception on the other. While Dewey is considered a spokesperson for modern American pragmatist and humanist thought, 'Allama may be seen as typical of Islamic Shi'i thinking. In dealing with their conceptualizations of self-realization, the intention in this study is to focus on some significant aspects of the human self, to rediscover its potentiality and to determine the wisdom behind self-realization from a comparative perspective. After outlining the two thinkers' scholarly backgrounds, instructional contexts, sources, methods, works and purposes, the study examines certain specific issues. It investigates their understandings of human nature, and explores their positions on moral experience and human character, as well as on the arts and sciences as vehicles for self-realization. As its final chapter, the study elaborates the basic elements and manifestations of self-realization as depicted in Dewey's and 'Allama's systems of thought. This research aims at clarifying the parallels, similarities and differences that exist between the two scholars, through an in-depth comparison of their respective naturalist and Islamic approaches and attitudes.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAnnotation:
Cette thèse porte sur la commande non linéaire des systèmes mécaniques sous-actionnés, ces systèmes possédant moins d'actionneur que de degrés de liberté. La dynamique interne de ces systèmes est souvent instable ce qui les rend difficiles à commander et requiert des méthodes de commande spécifiques. La contribution de cette thèse est la proposition de deux approches de commandes originales dont le but est la génération de cycle limites stables sur toutes les coordonnées du système mécanique sous-actionné. La première approche de commande est basée sur la linéarisation partielle par retour d'état et l'optimisation de trajectoires de référence. La seconde approche est basée sur les travaux récents sur la commande sans modèle, une technique de commande qui permet de contrôler un système sans avoir besoin de modèle mathématique préalable de sa dynamique. Ces deux approches de commande sont appliquées à un système mécanique sous-actionné particulier: le pendule inversé stabilisé par roue d'inertie. Plusieurs scénarios sont proposés, à la fois en simulation numérique et en temps-réel sur une plate-forme expérimentale. Les résultats obtenus attestent de la capacité des contrôleurs proposés à stabiliser le système autour de cycles limites stables en dépit de la présence de perturbations externesThis thesis is focused on non linear control of underactuated mechanical systems, thoses systems with less actuators than degrees of freedom. The internal dynamics of such system is often unstable making them particulary difficult to control. Thus specific care must be taken when designing controlers for such systems. The main contribution of this thesis is the design of two new control schemes for stable limit cycles generation on all coordinates of underactuated mechanical systems. First control approach is based on partial feedback linearization and reference trajectories optimization. Second approach is based on recent work on model free control,a control scheme which doesn't require prior mathematicalmodel of the controlled system dynamics. The proposed approaches are applied to an inertiawheel inverted pendulumtestbed. Several experimental scenarios are proposed, both in numerical simulation and in realtime implementation. Obtained results demonstrate the ability of both controllers to stabilize the system around stable limit cycles and to reject external disturbances

Bibliography: pages 163-166.The paradox evident in these quotations from Barth's writings forms the centre of his theology. On the one hand, humanity is incapable of speaking of God. On the other hand, it is imperative for humanity to speak of God. This dilemma is resolved by God's act for humanity in Jesus Christ, giving rise to a human response of faith and obedience. Humanity can speak of God only because God has revealed Godself. Hence, all theology and praxis begins doxologically, in praise for God's initiative of grace. This thesis proposes that Barth's perception of this initiative of God is best expressed in the concept of the revolution of God, which provides a paradigm from which to recover the liberative and humanising intention of his theology. This theology implies human praxis which participates in the divinely instituted process of transforming human reality. In this way Barth simultaneously speaks of God and humanity, without confusing the deity of God and the humanness of humanity. This provides a way beyond both quietism and the legitimation of power, choosing instead permanent confrontation with power in the interest of true humanisation.

St. Augustine believed that we are created to aspire to a perfection that aligns our relationships in such a way that we function out of a sense of respect for ourselves and the universe in which we live. In so doing we explore the possibilities of creativity and happiness. His thinking moved from the context of classical Greek thought into a Christian one. By living and recording the dilemma of being unable to act as his intellect mandated, he developed an innovative concept of will. He believed that we are motivated to act through our loves but we have a divided will that can only move towards integration if we love correctly. This necessitates an inward journey.The thesis of this paper is that if one subscribes to Augustine's beliefs there are serious implications for education. The following authors are cited to develop these implications in a modern philosophical and educational setting: Charles Taylor, Iris Murdoch, Israel Scheffler and Bob Samples. Finally, a brief resume of relevant teaching approaches and materials is offered.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAnnotation:
Two texts by Nishitani, written ten years apart, reflect a very different position on the nietzschean question of the overcoming of nihilism. Although a student of Heidegger's at Freiburg between 1936 and 1939, Nishitani shows no evidence of a heideggerian influence in The Self-Overcoming of Nihilism. In this period (1949), he considers, contrary to Heidegger, that the affirmative aspects of nietzschean philosophy constitute a radical overcoming of nihilism. It is only in What is Religion? (1961) which appears in 1982 as Religion and Nothingness (English translation) that his view changes, reflecting more closely a heideggerian position. Nietzsche's concept of the Will to Power is evidence for Nishitani that Nietzsche enmeshed still in a philosophy of "Being", remains within traditional Western metaphysics. Because in Nishitani's view, Western metaphysics is nihilist, he finally concludes that Nietzsche did not overcome nihilism.This development in Nishitani's thought is considered, in a concluding perspective of the present text, as evidence of the markedly more profound influence of Heidegger on the later, more mature work of Nishitani.

Many LGBT members are caught between two seemingly conflicting identities: their religious identity and their sexual identity as a homosexual. This study specifically examines how Christian LGBT individuals attempt to reconcile their identities. In order to uncover the lived experience of LGBT members, qualitative interviews were conducted with eleven members of the LGBT community. Using a thematic analysis, results indicate that 1) some LGBT individuals compartmentalize their sexual and religious identities through cost/benefit analysis and self-silencing and 2) others reconcile their two identities through broadening their concept of religion, emphasizing the relational connections with God, and distinguishing between Biblical literalists and God. Further, discussion of Spiral of Silence, Muted Group Theory, and Null Persona as the theoretical lenses are used to draw implications of these findings. This study seeks to open up dialogue concerning sexuality and religion in order to garner a more welcoming environment for LGBT Christians.

This study analyses local processes of appropriating Christianity in anglophone Cameroon. It centres upon Christian communities which were established under the auspices of the Swiss/German Basel Mission (BM). Earlier research on the BM in Cameroon deals mainly with metropolitan, colonial and institutional dimensions of mission history. Other related work on the relevance of the missionary enterprise to specific areas and peoples barely extends beyond the 1920s. With few exceptions, "native" agents - African clergy, sub-clergy and lay people - and their functions in mediating Christian faith have received little attention during the period under review here. Thus the necessity to overcome this limitation is addressed by placing African agency at the core of my thesis, employing a comprehensive comparative approach. The study takes up two suggestions put forward by several serious scholars from the mid-1960s: first, to recognise Christian advance in Africa as a black advance and second, to shift the emphasis from metropolitan mission history to local histories of religious encounters and Christianity. Bearing this reorientation in mind, the present research interlaces two strands of historical reconstruction. The first strand maps out the broader context of interaction between the key parties who influenced the BM's agenda: European missionaries, colonial officials, merchants, planters and African Christians and non-Christians. The second strand relates to local levels of contest or accommodation between African traditional belief systems and social institutions on one side, and "native" agents, evangelism and conversion experiences on the other. African participation in the evangelisation programme is examined from several vantage points. The partially overlapping themes are presented in seven chapters. They include the impact of the First World War, connections between colonial rule and missionary activity, linkages between religion and economic development, the role of traditional authorities (precepts and practices of chiefs and secret societies) in legitimising religious change, the vemacularisation of Christianity, nationalism and autonomy, and conversion, Christian adherence, and "native" agency. To conclude, the path from foreign missionary control to African church leadership is appraised. Written sources, interviews and photographs feed into a multi-pronged approach geared to elaborate the social-historical dimension of the missionary enterprise. The analysis of encounters with Christianity through biographical evidence is combined with reflections on the political, economic and social transformation of the mission field. Through its comparative framework the study seeks to add to a large picture of the interplay between colonial rule, Christian movements and the evolving concepts of traditional authority, identity, and modernity in 20th century sub-Saharan Africa.

L'explosion de la quantité de documents multimédias, suite à l'essor des technologies numériques, a rendu leur indexation très coûteuse et manuellement impossible. Par conséquent, le besoin de disposer de systèmes d'indexation capables d'analyser, de stocker et de retrouver les documents multimédias automatiquement, et en se basant sur leur contenu (audio, visuel), s'est fait ressentir dans de nombreux domaines applicatifs. Cependant, les techniques d'indexation actuelles rencontrent encore des problèmes de faisabilité ou de qualité. Leur performance reste très limitée et est dépendante de plusieurs facteurs comme la variabilité et la quantité de données à traiter. En effet, les systèmes d'indexation cherchent à reconnaître des concepts statiques, comme des objets (vélo, chaise,...), ou des événements (mariage, manifestation,...). Ces systèmes se heurtent donc au problème de variabilité de formes, de positions, de poses, d'illuminations, d'orientations des objets. Le passage à l'échelle pour pouvoir traiter de très grands volumes de données tout en respectant des contraintes de temps de calcul et de stockage est également une contrainte.Dans cette thèse, nous nous intéressons à l'amélioration de la performance globale de ces systèmes d'indexation de documents multimédias par le contenu. Pour cela nous abordons le problème sous différents angles et apportons quatre contributions à divers stades du processus d'indexation. Nous proposons tout d'abord une nouvelle méthode de fusion "doublement précoce " entre différentes modalités ou différentes sources d'informations afin d'exploiter au mieux la corrélation entre les modalités. Cette méthode est ensuite appliquée à la détection de scènes violentes dans les films. Nous développons ensuite une méthode faiblement supervisée pour la localisation des concepts basiques (comme les objets) dans les images qui pourra être utilisé plus tard comme un descripteur et une information supplémentaire pour la détection de concepts plus complexes (comme des événements). Nous traitons également la problématique de réduction du bruit généré par des annotations ambiguës sur les données d'apprentissage en proposant deux méthodes: une génération de nouvelles annotations au niveau des plans et une méthode de pondération des plans. Enfin, nous avons mis en place une méthode d'optimisation des représentations du contenu multimédia qui combine une réduction de dimension basée sur une ACP et des transformations non linéaires.Les quatre contributions sont testées et évaluées sur les collections de données faisant référence dans le domaine, comme TRECVid ou MediaEval. Elles ont participé au bon classement de nos soumissions dans ces campagnesA consequence of the rise of digital technology is that the quantity of available collections of multimedia documents is permanently and strongly increasing. The indexing of these documents became both very costly and impossible to do manually. In order to be able to analyze, classify and search multimedia documents, indexing systems have been defined. However, most of these systems suffer quality or practicability issues. Their performance is limited and depends on the data volume and data variability. Indexing systems analyze multimedia documents, looking for static concepts (bicycle, chair,...), or events (wedding, protest,...). Therefore, the variability in shapes, positions, lighting or orientation of objects hinders the process. Another aspect is that systems must be scalable. They should be able to handle big data while using reasonable amount of computing time and memory.The aim of this thesis is to improve the general performance of content-based multimedia indexing systems. Four main contributions are brought in this thesis for improving different stages of the indexing process. The first one is an "early-early fusion method" that merges different information sources in order to extract their deep correlations. This method is used for violent scenes detection in movies. The second contribution is a weakly supervised method for basic concept (objects) localization in images. This can be used afterwards as a new descriptor to help detecting complex concepts (events). The third contribution tackles the noise reduction problem on ambiguously annotated data. Two methods are proposed: a shot annotation generator, and a shot weighing method. The last contribution is a generic descriptor optimization method, based on PCA and non-linear transforms.These four contributions are tested and evaluated using reference data collections, including TRECVid and MediaEval. These contributions helped our submissions achieving very good rankings in those evaluation campaigns
