Abstract:
Abstract In recent years, theological interpretation of Christian Scripture has often been distinguished by its wholesale antipathy toward history and/or to historical criticism. Working with a typology of different forms of "historical criticism," this essay urges (1) that historical criticism understood as reconstruction of "what really happened" and/or historical criticism that assumes the necessary segregation of "facts" from "faith" is inimical to theological interpretation; (2) that this form of historical criticism is increasingly difficult to support in light of contemporary work in the philosophy of history; and (3) that contemporary theological interpretation is dependent on expressions of historical criticism concerned with the historical situation within which the biblical materials were generated, including the sociocultural conventions they take for granted.

Coleman, Christina. "Chaucer and narrative strategy." Thesis, McGill University, 1993. http://digitool.Library.McGill.CA:80/R/?func=dbin-jump-full&object_id=68078.

Full text
Abstract:
Many of the stories found in the works of Geoffrey Chaucer are adapted from other sources, a common practice amongst Medieval authors. But Chaucer often draws attention to his derivations by explicitly naming a source for the stories he uses. This strategy is employed in different ways. In Troilus and Criseyde, a false source is cited, but in the Clerk's Tale, Chaucer names the actual source of the story. In this thesis, identification and close examination of Chaucer's source materials reveal his changes to the derived texts, and an analysis of the role of the narrator in each case demonstrates the different narrative strategies he employs. Although Chaucer is clearly using different strategies in the two works, both raise questions about final authority over a text. These questions are the central issues explored in this thesis.

Full text
Abstract:
Fra Angelico's fresco cycle of the lives and martyrdoms of SS. Stephen and Lawrence in the Chapel of Nicholas V (1447-49) communicate in a style which seems to be rhetorical in the sense that they employ numerous strategies which appear to aim at persuading viewers of the truth of the ideological notions the frescoes convey. This fact encourages one to consider the specific pressures which the context of the frescoes' production may have exerted. Commissioned by a pope who had the training of a professional humanist - and who, as a humanist, had interest in the efficacy of rhetoric - these frescoes convey their messages with a persuasive pictorial 'eloquence1 which, in some respects, corresponds to or plays off on humanist definitions of eloquence. The following study attempts to explain what messages these frescoes were meant to communicate, and how their manner of communication is rhetorical. The rhetorical style becomes a method of conveying old ideas in new ways, and may have made the messages more resonant in the context in which they were meant to function. A paucity of primary documentation on the frescoes makes this type of evaluation difficult. Problems in identifying the frescoes' intended audience and working on the troublesome ground between the rhetorical nature of written and pictorial texts also complicates this' investigation. Nevertheless, by considering the problems and aims of Nicholas Vs pontificate, and by closely examining the subject matter, organization, and expression of the frescoes, some indication as to their probable function may be gained.

Full text
Abstract:
William of Ockham's (1285-1349) influence on medieval philosophy has been generally acknowledged. Little, however, has been written on the possibility that his work had an effect on the arts. His radical reversal of traditional epistemology and ontology raised new questions which had great implications for poetry. This study seeks to establish the extent of his influence on one poet, Geoffrey Chaucer (c. 1345-1400), by examining Chaucer's engagement with Jean de Meun (c. 1232-1305) on the theme of language and morality.

Burchiello's poetry has traditionally offered many difficulties of interpretation, and too often been neglected because of its obscure language.
The present work sets its goal not only to restate the validity of the metaphorical dimension in Burchiello, but also to offer an angle through which one can consider his poetic production as the signal of somehow a spiritual anxiety.

Full text
Abstract:
Though much has been made of Chaucer's saintly characters, relatively little has been made of Chaucer's approach to hagiography. While strictly speaking Chaucer produced only one true saint's life (the Second Nun's Tale), he was repeatedly intrigued and challenged by exemplary literature. The few studies of Chaucer's use of hagiography have tended to claim either his complete orthodoxy as hagiographer, or his outright parody of the genre. My study mediates the orthodoxy/parody split by viewing Chaucer as a serious, but self-conscious, hagiographer, one who experimented with the possibilities of exemplary narrative and explored the rhetorical tensions intrinsic to the genre, namely the tensions between transcendence and imminence, reverence and identification, and epideictic deliberative discourse.

Breitenstein, Renée-Claude. "La rhétorique épidictique de François Rabelais." Thesis, McGill University, 2003. http://digitool.Library.McGill.CA:80/R/?func=dbin-jump-full&object_id=19675.

Full text
Abstract:
This study participates in a tendency of Rabelaisian criticism to consider the Pantagruelian text as a weaving of borrowed forms which rcho surrounding discourses. On thrse grounds, we argue that epideictic rloquence, which comprises praise and blame, forms up a network of recognisable passages. This corpus, which, frora the Gargantua to the Quart Livre, brings together pieces eclectic as much in claim as in structure, is tackled from a generic perspective and analysed in light of their common rhetorical components: dispositio, elocutio and inventio. In accordance with the aesthetic of imitation, which informs the making of texts in the Renaissance, Rabelais recasts models available from his predecessors. However, these textual reshufflings, whether it be a matter of early XVIth Century literary compositions or rehabilitated classical works, is effected through parody. But while the re-evaluation through laughter, in the cases of the Gargantua and the Pantagruel, concerns the occasional poetry of the rhetoriqueurs, parody is brought about within the genre itself in the Tiers and Quart Livres, which comprise paradoxical encomia only. Our interest here is in the modes of parody and the conditions for the provoking of laughter in which can be seen the will to reinvigorate a genre, which had by then become strictly codified. From the first two books to the last a certain way of thinking is being established. With conceptual space allowing such great breadth, the paradoxical encomium introduces into epideictic rhetoric contradiction and equivocation, thereby freeing that genre from its formal constraints. This propensity to paradox is significant for the rhetoric of praise and the textual representation of man. And yet, it is through the parody of the epideictic genre and the often grotesque figures it engenders, that Rabelais participates in the oratory genre, - an anthropology indeed, and, as such, a tool to conceive of man - which conveys the highest conception of the human.

Full text
Abstract:
One can see many poems in the five books of Francois Rabelais. These pieces in verse are sometimes inspired by the "Grands Rhetoriqueurs", or by poets of the like of Clement Marot or Mellin de Saint-Gelais, contemporary to the author. Rabelais reverses and parodies the forms he imitates; likewise these very codified poetic forms are often particularly well-suited to parody. In this case, analyzing the co-text proves to be essential when judging parodies that are often ambiguous and more ludic than they are satirical. Moreover, the poetry encases itself into the work, which in turn follows models of comedy and parody: the comic-epic and the Menippean satire.
Far from being a whim on the part of the author, or a mere nod in the direction of his friends who were poets, Rabelaisian poetry surprises the reader by its variety, which provides a fascinating portrait of the vitality of the poetical debates of the period.

Full text
Abstract:
The works of Edwin M. Duval, especially The Design of Rabelais's "Pantagruel" will act as a springboard for our proposition that Theleme is a New Jerusalem. Through textual analysis of biblical texts and those of Rabelais, we intend to bring to light their intertextual relationships as well as that of certain works pertaining to a New Jerusalem which were of importance during the sixteenth century, namely those of Joachim of Flora, Calvin and Torquato Tasso.
We will begin by presenting a compilation of what has been established about Theleme to date. Following this, we will present Duval's arguments culminating in his two conclusions: firstly, that Pantagruel is a "Christ-Redeemer" for the race of Giants, and secondly, that Pantagruel is an epic of the New Testament. We will then take these conclusions one step further by proposing that just as the New Testament ends with the Book of Revelation, the Rabelaisian cycle Pantagruel-Gargantua is also brought to a close with the advent of a New Jerusalem.
Next, we will present a historical overview of the founding of abbeys up to the time of Rabelais in order to counter the claim that Theleme is an anti-monastery or a counter-abbey. (Abstract shortened by UMI.)

Full text
Abstract:
The expressive systems in architecture consists of two components: the system of forms and the system of meanings, these systems are linked together by unwritten rules, which are a matrix of correlations / implications that determine any meanings associated with any forms. The designer remains unsure of the possible interpretations of his design, because of the variation in the nature of meaning, discovered by the recipient, and this stems from the variation of reliance on the theory of interpretation in this regard. Many studies of architectural semiology indicate some of these theories; Classical theory believes in the natural meaning, which influenced by form's geometry, Pragmatic theory believes in the common meaning, which stems from the use of form within different contexts and according to social custom. The research attempts to explore the aspects of interpretation adopted by two critics, in order to determine the theory adopted by them, so the designer will be aware to the nature and type of meaning comprehended by viewers. The results showed the adoption of common and inclusive meanings, also showed the variation in the role of architectural Expressions in confirming or multiplying the meaning, influenced by contexts and signal types. The conclusion emphasized the importance of historical references, stylistic trend, and spatial contexts in form interpretation.

Full text
Abstract:
The aim of the paper is to emphasize the importance of source criticism in etymological research. It is widely known that the main sources for the early history of toponyms in the Carpathian Basin are the charters created in the medieval Hungarian Kingdom, because these official documents contained a large number of vernacular proper names embedded in the Latin text. However, it is important to mention that the medieval charters were produced by the chancery and places of authentication along specific principles and needs. I argue that this circumstance must always be considered during the interpretation of the data. I will show some examples illustrating that – in certain cases – we have to take into account the nature of the sources in the reconstruction of the genesis of place names. My goal is to offer a brief outline of this issue through my own investigations.

Full text
Abstract:
Since its rise as an autonomous field in the seventies, Urban Design has been a conglomerate of diverse concepts and value outlooks.The present approach, which is an a posteriori propositional expression of applications in actual practice and education, presents both theory and method by means of ten points. The approach is basically generated by formal considerations, thus originating in and focussing on aspects which cannot be expressed through theory and methods of other disciplines. It starts with systematic, conventional and objective studies which are then connected to a system of manipulations – the rules of game – which emphasize interpretation and are clarified by narrative and formal metaphors. The ‘rules of game’ set a framework of no a priori preferred contents, which is then applied according to local characteristics, needs and potentials. This conceptual – interpretative framework imposes a structural, consistent and hierarchical system on the factual data, so as to assure the realization of two apparently opposed values: (1) unity and phenomenological qualities and (2) free development and unfolding of the design that .The propositional expression of the approach aims at its exposure to explicit evaluation and criticism.

Abstract:
The city wall of Lastra a Signa: integrated digital survey methodologiesThe survey of the Lastra a Signa city walls (built between the second half of 1300 and the first half of 1400) is the result of three different survey campaigns made in 2006-2007-2008 and of the following data processing carried out as part of a Master thesis. It is a paradigmatic example of the overcoming of the concept of “survey as a mere measurement and graphic representation of a certain element”, by using a methodology protocol. At that time, survey operations became more complex because it was necessary to coordinate with a scientific basis the different survey phases: preliminary documentation, data taking with several instruments, data processing, data filing and cataloguing, two-dimensional representation of plans, cross-sections and elevations, wall decay interpretation and building materials analysis. The survey subject became a dynamic and ever-changing process, thanks to the introduction of digital survey and the availability of new technologies. This paper describes the methodologies that were used in each different part of the survey campaign, of the data cataloguing operations and of the representation process, underlining the importance of the strict hierarchy of the acquired and rendered data. This hierarchy allowed to manage information obtained from topographic, laser, direct and photographic survey, and then to discretise, clean, georeference and make two-dimensional representations of the acquired data. Ultimately, it allowed creating a database that contains all these elements and ensures that the archived data can be updated in the future.

Among the elements of the spiritual tradition conducive to religious pluralism is the ‘mirror’ concept: every human is seen as a mirror of God in three aspects: reflecting the at- tributes and names of God as His work of art, reflection through dependence on God, and reflection through actions God commands or commends. Since only the last aspect is vol- untary, every human, regardless of creed, is a mirror of God in at least the first two aspects. This is a potent argument for peaceful coexistence in religious diversity. The perspective of the spiritual tradition is emphatically inclusive and compassionate and naturally lends itself to non-violence, going beyond mere tolerance to hospitality and friendship. There are impor- tant impediments that prevent this perspective from having a greater impact: (1) the literalist opposition to flexible interpretation of concepts from the Qur’an and the Prophetic tradition, and the wide definition of innovation or heresy (‘bid`a’); (2) deviations of some Sufi orders and subsequent criticisms by orthodox Muslims; and (3) the impact of the politicisation of religion by some groups and political moves by certain Sufi orders. This paper argues that the only approach that has a chance of influencing the majority of contemporary Muslims in positive ways without being open to criticism is the ‘balanced’ spiritual tradition, after the style of the Companions, sometimes called tasawwuf, which strives to harmonise the outer dimensions of Islamic law and worship with the inner dimen- sion of spiritual disciplines firmly rooted in the Qur’an and Prophetic tradition. This paper will present an analysis of this ‘balanced’ spiritual tradition in Islam, from Ghazali, through Rumi, to Gülen.

Abstract:
Abstract Geomechanics plays an important role in stimulation design especially in complex tight reservoirs with very low matrix permeability. Robust modelling of horizontal stresses along with rock mechanical properties helps to identify the stress barriers which are crucial for optimum stimulation design and proppant allocation. A comprehensive modeling and calibration workflow showcased the value of geomechanical analysis in large stimulation project of Ostracod-Magwa, a compex shallow carbonate reservoir in the Awali onshore field, Bahrain. For the initial Geomechanical model regional average rock properties and minimum stress values from earlier frac campaigns were considered. During campaign progression, advanced cross dipole sonic measurements of the new wells were incorporated in the geomechanical modeling which provided rock properties and stresses with improved confidence. The outputs from wireline-conveyed microfrac tests and the fracturing treatments were also considered for calibration of the minimum horizontal stress and breakdown pressure. The porepressure variability was established with the measured formation pressure data. The geomechanically derived horizontal stresses and elastic properties were used as input for the frac-design. Independent fracture geometry measurements were run to validate the model. The poro-elastic horizontal strain approach was used to model the horizontal stress magnitudes. This approach shows variability of the stress profile depending on the elastic rock properties. The study shows variable depletion in porepressure across the field as well as within different reservoir layers of Magwa and Ostracod. Ostracod is more depleted compared to the Magwa reservoir with porepressure values below hydrostatic (~7 ppg). The B3 shale layer between Magwa and Ostracod reservoirs could be established as a stress barrier with 1200-1500 psi closure pressure. The closure pressure in Ostracod varies in the range of 1000-1500 psi while the range in Magwa is 1100-1600 psi. In the Magwa reservoir a gradual increase of closure pressure with depth is observed, while no such trend is apparent in the shallower Ostracod formation. Geomechanical models served as a key input of the integral frac optimization workflow that resulted in increasing the well productivity by more then double compared to previous stimulation campaigns. The poroelastic horizontal strain model to predict the horizontal stresses from cross-dipole sonic data provides higher stress variability and ultimately yields a high resolution stress profile. This model calibrated with direct closure pressure measuremtns is crucial for successful stimulation design in complex reservoirs with very low matrix permeability. Geology Overview and Problem Statement The Ostracod and Magwa formations are shallow reservoir development targets over the Awali field in the Kingdom of Bahrain. The depth of these reservoir ranges from 1400-1800 ft TVDSS and are represented by shallow marine limestones, which are composed of bioclastic, packstone/wackestone with occasional dolomites, chert, lime mudstone, and scarce pyrite. The reservoirs are represented by a triple porosity system which consists of matrix porosity, secondary natural fractures porosity and bioturbation enhanced porosities that can be associated with dissolution (micro-vugs). The Ostracod reservoir exhibits intense natural fractures towards the base whereas the upper part of the reservoir is associated with a combination of both, vugs and natural fractures. The section is heavily interbedded with numerous shale barriers which gives an average net-to-grows (NTG) ~ 35% with gross thickness ~150-200 ft. On the other hand, Magwa reservoir is represented by thicker limestones where the secondary porosity is mostly represented by bioturbated units resulting in a higher average NTG ~75% with gross thickness up to 150 ft. The reservoirs are heavily faulted, ~140 faults identified by manual seismic interpretation and more than 800 faults observed on the well log data by missing/repeating sections over total of ~2000 wells. Production from the reservoirs started from early 1960's mainly by perforation of watered/gas out wells from the lower producing horizons, followed by active drilling camping in 2011-2015 ~250 wells and minor drilling in 2016-2019. New drilled wells had a so-called "flash" production exhibits a high oil production rates followed by rapid production decline with the long low rate tail production. Long production history and active development drilling however did not provide good recovery factor for the reservoirs – after more than 55 years of development the current recovery factor is ~5%. At the same time, a recent new well drilling campaign provided only marginal economic production results, which opened the area for production enhancement opportunities. Based on historical production analysis and numerous acid stimulations performed on the field it was concluded that acid stimulations demonstrated a good immediate production response however the effect was not lasting more than 3-6 months (AlJanahi et al. 2020). And one of the key contributors to this effect on top of the natural depletion was the geological structure of target reservoirs – the reservoirs are not clean carbonates – they are heavily intercalated with shales. The effect of increased connected reservoir volume to the wellbore was not lasting for long due to possible fine migration and did not provide enough vertical connectivity and good lateral extension. Based on above observations, hydraulic fracturing was considered as an option for the production enhancement which could potentially provide good lateral and vertical reservoir connectivity with the wellbore and would not be heavily affected by time, or at least the effect of operation will last longer than observed historically. However, a hydraulic fracturing campaign was performed on the field in the period 2010-2011, despite good production results the incremental production after hydraulic fracturing was insignificant comparing with the wells without the fracturing. After analyzing observed results coupled with post fracturing evaluation it was concluded that the actual achieved hydraulic fracture geometry was not enough to outpace non fractured wells in these reservoirs. Based on numerical simulation studies it was concluded that the higher effective half-length and higher conductivity of a hydraulic fracture could provide better production results with much longer effect in time. Therefore, the question of achievable fracture geometry, its distribution laterally and vertically was pushed into the forefront.
