Abstract:

Con la presente trattazione si è voluto analizzare il rapporto di Luciano, autore satirico e di grande produttività della Seconda Sofistica, con la retorica coeva, in particolare in merito alla moda iperatticista. Uno studio introduttivo del panorama letterario atticista e delle fonti ad esso correlate, introduce un'analisi linguistica e contenutistica dell'opera. Vengono analizzati i processi di creazione verbale: su di essi si costruisce la parodia di Luciano che deride la moda iperatticista nei suoi eccessi linguistici e dimostra infine la scorrettezza grammaticale. Vengono, inoltre, analizzati i modelli soggiacenti all'opera: il background culturale di Luciano utilizza trasversalmente lessico e immagini dell'epica e della tragedia, attinge dalla commedia e dall'ambito medico e ancora si serve dei lexica di autori contemporanei. Un'attenzione particolare è stata dedicata al Contro-simposio ad opera del protagonista, approfondendo i modelli, il rovesciamento di essi e i meccanismi di satira.

Abstract:

The thesis comprises, in roughly equal proportions, a commentary on the first book of Heliodoros Aithiopika (a Greek novel of the third or fourth century A.D.); and prolegomena which treat issues raised by the work as a whole. A literal translation of Aithiopika I is included as an appendix. In the commentary a range of points is covered, including philological and textual points, and questions of literary interpretation, and of the historical background of the action of the novel. Some of the literary points relate to the whole corpus of extant ancient Greek novels. One particularly obscure historical point, the identity of the 'Boukoloi', is given extended consideration. The prolegomena consists of five chapters. The first is a brief survey of the textual tradition of the work. The second examines the question of its date of composition and of the identity of its author, surveying the history of this debate, and showing how the evidence of vocabulary can be used to add weight to the argument in favour of accepting the fourth century date (rather than the third century date favoured by some scholars), and the view that Heliodoros was a Christian. The third chapter disputes the current view that the use of terms for divine agencies in the text reflects a lack of a systematic theology. The fourth chapter asks whether the text bears any traces of the local cult of the author's home town of Emesa, and answers with a tentative affirmative. In the fifth chapter the author considers how his contributions to our understanding of the historical and conceptual background of the text could affect our interpretation of it as a literary work.

Full text

Abstract:

The following text constitutes an attempt to present the French philosopher Gilbert Simondon's genetic ontology through an account of his reconfiguration of the problem of individuation in his doctoral thesis from 1958, L'individuation à la lumière des notions de forme, information, potentiel, métastabilité. The intention is to show how Simondon through this reconfiguration of a classical philosophical problem – in which concepts and schemas from contemporary physics and technology is utilised in a critique of the bi-polar hylomorphic schema as its traditional, substantialistic solution – becomes able to articulate an anti-substantialistic and anti-reductionistic ontogenesis as first philosophy. A systematic philosophical conception that according to Simondon precedes every critical investigation of the subject as well as every scientific ontology – not by establishing a pre-critical position, but by exceeding Kant's critical position: that is, through a displacement toward a conception of the transcendental conditions for the genesis of being and thought as real conditions, rather than conditions of mere possibility. A displacement that in turn appears to respond to the question that frames this basic account of important concepts and schemas in Simondon, namely: in what sense and to what extent is it necessary for philosophical thought to be thought and developed in relation to other forms of thought?

Abstract:

In this thesis I consider ubuntu as a metonym for the particularly African features of South African philosophy. Given that Mbembe critiques African philosophy in general as having failed because it has been subsumed under two unreflective political movements in African thought, I consider whether or not the concept of ubuntu escapes his critique. After developing criteria for measuring the success of any philosophical concept, I conclude that ubuntu is unsuccessful. I then identify the political constraints placed on ubuntu that lead to its failure. These constraints arise from having to validate Africa as a place of intellectual worth. Considering the role of place in these constraints, I argue that a far more productive approach to ubuntu (and South African philosophy in general) is to explicitly incorporate this place into our philosophical project. I use the conceptual framework developed by Bruce Janz to provide a systematic account of place that can be used in formulating South African philosophy. I add to Janz, arguing that philosophy is a response to a particular feature of place: the mystery. By incorporating place into ubuntu, I am able to start developing a philosophical concept which can fulfil the political constraints placed on ubuntu without sacrificing its philosophical integrity. I suggest that ubuntu remains an interesting concept primarily because it promises to respond to the fragmentation of the South African place. I conclude by arguing that ubuntu should be used as the basis for a civic religion which responds to the fragmentation of the South African place. This civic religion will give rise to a significantly distinct philosophical tradition which should not succumb to Mbembe’s critique.

Full text

Abstract:

The thesis consists of a detailed commentary on the Homeric Hymn to Delian Apollo, and prolegomena. The subjects treated in the prolegomena are: (i) the structure of hymns, and of the Homeric Hymns in particular, with a discussion of the context in which the Hymns were performed, concluding that they were probably performed at festivals as preludes to recitations of epic poetry; (ii) the narrative techniques of the Hymns, comparing them to Homer; (iii) the treatment of the gods in the Hymns, discussing the ways the gods are presented in the narratives, and the similarities to and differences from the depiction of the gods in Homer; (iv) the portrayal of Apollo and Delos in DAp, discussing the problems of depicting a god in literature, and the relationship between the myth told in the hymn and Delian cult; (v) the language of the hymn, discussing the history of studies of the Hymns' language, examples of un homeric usage and the relationship of the Hymns to Homer and Hesiod; (vi) the question of whether the hymn was orally composed, discussing the various criteria that have been used to attempt to determine this, and concluding that oral composition cannot be proved but is very likely; (vii) the problem of the hymn's unity, or lack of it, discussing the history of the various theories and concluding that the hymn is not an original unity, and that the Delian hymn was composed as an addition to the pre-existing Pythian hymn; (viii) the date of DAp, concluding that it may have been composed in the second half of the sixth century, possibly for a festival held by Polycrates in 523/2 B.C. The commentary deals with linguistic and literary points, and any religious, historical or geographical issues that are raised by particular passages.

Full text

Abstract:

In this dissertation, the possibility of employing a version of (primitive) recursive arith- metic to build the semantic representations of natural language sentences is explored. This idea derives from the fact that such a formal system differs under several respects from formalisms which have been traditionally employed in formal semantics, based on classical predicate logic. Specifically, in the case of recursive arithmetic, quantifiers are not primitive terms of the language, but they are defined as peculiar recursive functions; additionally, within it they cannot be defined in a way which corresponds to how they have traditionally been conceived, i.e. as “unbounded” quantifiers, whose domain is not necessarily finite. In recursive arithmetic, however, it is possible to convey something equivalent to general assertions, regarding any arbitrarily chosen individual, by using free variables; crucially, such variables do not establish relations of scope with other terms of the language, and their interpretation can to a large extent be assimilated to that of wide scope standard universal quantifiers. In the light of this, it is argued that several linguistic phenomena, attested in natural languages of different families, can be explained in an especially natural way by assuming that the lexical elements and syn- tactic structures involved are correlated with the presence of these free variables with generic value in the logical form of the sentence. In particular, generic indefinites, con- ditionals and habitual clauses are analyzed, in their interaction with the negation and, as for the first two, with quantified noun phrases; in connection with these aspects, the problem of the internal structure of negative indefinite is also addressed; finally, a pos- sible analysis of the Neg-Raising phenomenon in terms of generic variables is offered. Many of the proposals made here have already appeared in the literature, in Löbner (2000, 2013) and, moreover, in Goodstein (1951, 1957) and Hornstein (1984). Some apparent counterexamples to the theory outlined are explained by making appeal to an independently motivated treatment of embedded clauses. It is suggested that the analyzed phenomena, when collectively considered, confirm the validity of the initial project, letting one glimpse new potential scenarios for a fruitful exchange between the philosophy of mathematics and linguistic semantics.
In questa tesi si indaga la possibilità di impiegare una versione dell’aritmetica (primitiva) ricorsiva allo scopo di costruire le rappresentazioni semantiche degli enunciati delle lin- gue naturali. L’idea deriva dal fatto che un sistema formale di questo tipo si differenzia sotto diversi aspetti significativi dai formalismi tradizionalmente impiegati in semantica formale, basati sulla logica predicativa classica. In particolare, nel caso dell’aritmetica ricorsiva, i quantificatori non sono termini primitivi del linguaggio, ma vengono defini- ti come specifiche funzioni ricorsive; inoltre, essi non possono esservi definiti in modo analogo a come vengono classicamente concepiti, ossia come quantificatori “illimitati”, il cui dominio non è necessariamente finito. Nell’aritmetica ricorsiva è possibile, tuttavia, esprimere l’equivalente di asserzioni generali, che riguardano cioè un qualunque individuo arbitrariamente scelto, mediante l’uso di variabili libere; crucialmente, queste variabili non stabiliscono rapporti di portata con altri termini del linguaggio, e la loro interpre- tazione è per gran parte assimilabile a quella dei quantificatori universali tradizionali con portata ampia. Alla luce di questo fatto, si sostiene che diversi fenomeni linguistici, attestati in lingue appartenenti a famiglie diverse, possono essere spiegati in modo parti- colarmente naturale assumendo che gli elementi lessicali e le strutture sintattiche che vi sono coinvolti siano correlati alla presenza di tali variabili libere con valore generico nella forma logica dell’enunciato. In particolare, vengono analizzati gli indefiniti generici, i condizionali e le frasi abituali, nella loro interazione con la negazione e, nei primi due casi, con i sintagmi nominali quantificati; in connessione con questi aspetti, viene toccato il problema della struttura interna degli indefiniti negativi; infine, in termini di variabili generiche viene offerta una possibile analisi del fenomeno del Neg-Raising. Molte delle proposte avanzate sviluppano idee già apparse nella letteratura, in Löbner (2000, 2013) e, soprattutto, in Goodstein (1951, 1957) e Hornstein (1984). Alcuni apparenti proble- mi della teoria delineata vengono spiegati facendo appello a uno specifico trattamento delle frasi incassate motivato indipendentemente. Si suggerisce quindi che i fenomeni analizzati, considerati nel loro complesso, confermino la validità del progetto iniziale, lasciando intravvedere nuovi potenziali scenari per un fecondo scambio tra filosofia della matematica e semantica linguistica.

Abstract:

I should like to have completed this process by having this project bound so that it read from right to left instead of the traditional manner in which we have learnt and been taught to read. In partaking of such an activity, it would have been my purpose and intention to share with you my sense of physical discomfort that has situated itself beside me at various stages from the on-set of my research. Because I believe in this process, I have decided to follow a traditional approach, and as you can see it reads as it should from left to right. In the introductory phase of this study, I assert quite unequivocally that this is not a thesis. Instead I promote this as a prolegomena; an interlocutory prolusion. But don't be deceived! This is very much a thesis. It has been researched according to guidelines, formatted according to specifications and ethically undertaken. I want you to believe that it is a thesis. Partially because I have pursued this research in a very serious manner and also because no matter how much we try to avoid becoming enmeshed in a system, ultimately we find that we are. Three years ago I embarked on a quest. At this time, I proposed that I would undertake a study on the Historical Understandings of passion throughout the Western World. This idea came to a sudden and dramatic halt, through the encountering of what I should like to refer to as a series of problems. In order to do justice to my subject, I decided to write about these obstacles, a decision that I hoped would lead me back to my original statement of intent, following their reconciliation. It is Michel Foucault, that I credit with the title for this thesis. After reading his book entitled "This Is Not A Pipe" (1982) I felt a certain sense of inspiration and ethical obligation that I considered worth taking the risk for. Due to no longer writing a thesis on passion, I decided that this could not be called a thesis. It could only be an introduction to my thesis that would speak about why it had become impossible for me to pursue my thesis at this stage. The other reason that this carries the title of this is not a thesis, surrounds my favouring the post-modern over any other position that I have inquired about. This prolusion involves a discussion surrounding many of the problematics associated with my research processes. These include extensively looking at existing methodologies available when undertaking research today. Adjunct to the illumination of these problems, I look at literary disruptions; my penchant for knowledge and my naive aspirations which all contributed to thwarting my journey into completing an adequate study on passion. Included in this prolegomena, are two diagrammatic representations of passion. The first seeks to re-inscribe through re-presenting passion away from its traditional juxtaposition with love or sexual gratification. It re-presents passion as a polyvalent movement that is vastly more complicated than that to which we have come to believe in through out the centuries. Accompanying this depiction, are the traditional notions of passion. This is based on the works of authors such as Aquinas, Daly, Cicero and McLellan. In the conclusion of this prolusion, I suggest that there is a need to re-write a new methodology. One that transcends our current juncture that promotes stances belonging to foundationalism, anti-foundationalism and non-foundationalism. It is my ardent belief, that this is a necessary course of action and will enable the subject of passion to be spoken to as never before.

Abstract:

Questo lavoro di tesi si concentra sulla teoria dei Form Factors di operatori locali in due dimensioni. Si espone innanzitutto la teoria dello scattering fattorizzato, propria dei sistemi integrabili, per poi trattare sia classicamente che quantisticamente due modelli integrabili massivi, Sine-Gordon e Sinh-Gordon. Viene esposta l'algebra di Faddeev-Zamolodchikov, per mezzo di cui è possibile trovare lo spazio di Hilbert per modelli integrabili come spazio delle sue rappresentazioni. L'attenzione è infine posta sul regime in cui l'ampiezza relativa alla riflessione solitone-antisolitone nella matrice di scattering è nulla; tale caso si ottiene per valori particolari della costante di accoppiamento del modello di Sine-Gordon, coincidenti con i valori di soglia degli stati legati. Due proposte per l'espressione dei form factors per solitoni sono state prese in considerazione, avanzate una da Lukyanov, l'altra da Babelon, Bernard e Smirnov, tentando un confronto.

Abstract:

Thesis advisor: Richard Kearney
This dissertation investigates the possibility of a renewed phenomenological ethics that would ground ethics in the structure of lived experience, so that daily existence is ethically informative and the good is located in the concrete, heartfelt affairs of dwelling in the world with others. Thus far, phenomenological ethics has been deeply influenced by the two schools of Max Scheler’s value ethics and Emmanuel Levinas’ alterity ethics, both of which I argue share a fundamental point of contact in what I am calling Deep Kantianism. That is, phenomenological ethics has been haunted by Immanuel Kant’s non-phenomenological divide between nature and freedom, being and goodness, ontology and ethics. In response, I will suggest a new point of departure for phenomenological ethics beginning with the originary unity of being and goodness as revealed by the love that moves the self beyond herself toward her ground in the other person. Chapter One seeks to establish and identify the problem of Deep Kantianism, or explain what exactly Deep Kantianism is according to its origins. Kant begins his ethics with Hume’s assumption that being and goodness, is and ought, are separate. The implications of this divide threaten to reduce being to bare being without ethical import and to convert the good into an abstract shadow that is irrelevant to the situations of daily life. Chapter Two examines how Scheler in his value ethics shows against Kant that the ethical is only experienced by a being with a heart. The source of normativity is revealed and known through affectivity. However, this insight is troubled by Scheler’s distinction between values and bearers of value that repeats the Kantian distinction between nature and freedom, respectively. Chapter Three focuses on Scheler’s prioritization of love as the fundamental affect of the heart and person in its moving the person outside of herself, a movement that constitutes the person as such. However, this love turns out to not be for the sake of the person but for the value-essence that she bears, again placing the ethical with Kant outside of the realm of Being. Chapter Four begins with Levinas’ discovery that ethics is constituted by the relation to the Other, an ethical relation that is the first relation before any ontological relation, indicating that the self is responsible for the Other. Yet Levinas here is haunted by Deep Kantianism in his denigration of affectivity, which for him is an egoist return to the self that excludes the Other. Chapter Five argues that Levinas’ ethics is permeated by an abyssal nothingness that is exhibited in the destitution of the Other in Totality and Infinity and the passivity of the self in Otherwise than Being. The nothingness that permeates the ethical relation hints at the necessity of a return to the ontological, suggesting that ontology is not, as Levinas maintains following Kant, devoid of ethical implications. Chapter Six turns to Martin Heidegger in his retrieval of a pre-Kantian pathos through his readings of Augustine and Aristotle. This pathos suggests that affectivity is always already oriented toward the things and persons of the world in a way that reveals what is conducive and detrimental to one’s Being, implying a notion of what is good and bad for one’s Being, which Heidegger leaves undeveloped. Chapter Seven conducts a phenomenology of the ground of ethics that is informed by the discoveries made by Scheler, Levinas, and Heidegger. The self begins as constituted by a nothing, demanding that it move outside of itself in the exteriorization of love. This exteriorization directs the self to the concrete other person, the thou, who is revealed to be both the Good and Being as the proper end of love, indicating that the self is constituted by Being-for-the-Other

Abstract:

Pierwszy rozdział niniejszej pracy poświęcam kilku kwestiom porządkującym, ma on więc charakter przede wszystkim historycznoliteracki. Kościec fabularny baśni dla dzieci autor wziął z Księgi tysiąca i jednej nocy, a u genezy książek tkwi zamówienie wydawnicze. Zanim oba tomy baśni pojawiły się w obiegu, Orient przez wieki oddziaływał na kulturę europejską i w ten nurt wpływów staram się wpisać Klechdy sezamowe i Przygody Sindbada Żeglarza. Po wydaniu tych książek nie rozbrzmiały się liczne głosy recenzentów i literaturoznawców, jednak przez stulecie od momentu druku oba tomy stały się poczytnymi książkami dla młodego odbiorcy. W Polsce żadna inna wersja opowieści zaczerpniętej z Księgi tysiąca i jednej nocy prawdopodobnie nie doczekała się tylu wznowień. Tak więc książki są uznawane przez kolejne pokolenia dzieci, a leśmianologia – poza nielicznymi głosami – zbywa je milczeniem. Postulatem, który jak lejtmotyw przewija się przez tę rozprawę, jest szersze wykorzystanie tychże baśni w badaniach leśmianologicznych. Klechdy… i Przygody… zawierają elementy, obrazy i wątki niejednokrotnie i różnorodnie wykorzystywane przez Leśmiana w poezji, dlatego też postrzegam je jako teksty przemycające istotne wskazówki dla odczytań niektórych sensów zawartych w pozostałych dziełach autora. Poezja z kolei odwołuje się do znaczeń mitycznych, których rekonstrukcji chciałabym się podjąć. Ten kierunek badawczy od Klechd… i Przygód… do poezji pozwoli wskazać, jak baśń – mit zdegradowany naprowadza na sferę mythos zaszyfrowaną w twórczości poetyckiej Leśmiana. Przy tak postawionym problemie badawczym najwłaściwszą metodologią jest nowoczesna wykładnia mitu, czerpiąca z osiągnięć wielu dyscyplin, m.in. antropologii kulturowej, hermeneutyki mitograficznej i osiągnięć nowoczesnej psychoanalizy i psychologii głębi. W związku z wyborem eklektyzmu metodologicznego potrzebna jest konstrukcja czytelnej siatki „pojęć operacyjnych”, która będzie ramą dla ustaleń w części badawczej. Jest to tym istotniejsze, że nawet dwa kluczowe pojęcia – mit i baśń – doczekały się już tylu definicji, że naukowe ich użycie wymaga komentarza. Część analityczna zawiera się w dwóch rozdziałach: trzecim i czwartym. W pierwszym z nich dokonuję rekonstrukcji Leśmianowskiej „filozofii słowa”, by następnie sprawdzić, jak „poetyka sformułowana” przekłada się na Klechdy sezamowe i Przygody Sindbada Żeglarza. Te ustalenia mają na celu udowodnienie, że jak najbardziej zasadnym jest postrzeganie dorobku Leśmiana jako spójnej, bo wynikającej z dość wcześnie wykrystalizowanego światopoglądu autora, całości. Rozważania na temat stylu i roli słowa w obu tomach baśni nie mają charakteru językoznawczego. Korzystam w tej części pracy z ustaleń teorii literatury, ale przede wszystkim jest to propozycja interpretacji tychże baśni dla dzieci jako swoistej autorskiej zabawy słowem, czy też gry językiem, która przeradza się w igranie z konwencją baśni odbywające się we wszystkich warstwach tekstu, tj. w warstwie językowej, świata przedstawionego i ukrytych sensów. Z kolei grę z nadawcą/autorem/Leśmianem może też podjąć odbiorca, ale nie dziecięcy, gdyż dziecko nie rozpozna wszystkich aluzji i nawiązań wpisanych w teksty. Intertekstualność dzieł jest zarezerwowana dla adresata bardziej świadomego i obdarzonego konkretnymi kompetencjami – jako „modelowego odbiorcę” mam tu na myśli kogoś, kto zna twórczość Leśmiana. Dla niego wszystkie sygnały pęknięć baśniowej konwencji czy gry słowem powinny stać się wskazówką i naprowadzać na pozabaśniowe obszary. Chodzi o przekierowanie uwagi w stronę poezji Leśmiana, a na jeszcze głębszym poziomie odbioru – w stronę mitu. Odnosząc baśniowe ujęcia do analogicznych wpisanych w twórczość poetycką, dramaty i ballady, widać, że następuje przesunięcie semantyczne. Bajkem staje się mitemem, gdy ten sam obraz wykorzystany w kolejnym utworze zaczyna konotować problematykę egzystencjalną. Omówieniu takich sytuacji jest poświęcony rozdział czwarty. Wskazuję w nim m.in. na zawarte w Klechdach… oraz Przygodach… postacie, elementy bajkosfery i uwikłania czasoprzestrzenne, by je skonfrontować z poetyckimi odpowiednikami, rozwinięciami bądź przekształceniami. Takie postępowanie badawcze ma udowodnić, że w twórczości Leśmiana mit zdegradowany naprowadza na strukturę mityczną, o ile potraktuje się wszystkie jego utwory jako elementy jednej układanki, a siecią powiązań będą miejsca wspólne. Ze względu na wykorzystaną metodologię i zakres poruszanej problematyki rozprawa ma charakter interdyscyplinarny. Jej zasadniczym celem jest wskazanie, jaką rolę pełnią, czy też mogą pełnić, Klechdy sezamowe i Przygody Sindbada Żeglarza w całokształcie dorobku Bolesława Leśmiana. Postrzegam je jako prolegomena do twórczości poetyckiej – kolejny komentarz do genialnej poezji autora. Są to zarazem baśnie, które prawdopodobnie większość zna bądź kojarzy z dzieciństwa i w tym sensie też je można potraktować jako wprowadzenie do kolejnych doświadczeń lekturowych, wśród których może się znaleźć wybitna poezja ich autora.

Abstract:

What is unique to the experience of cinema that has ensured its ongoing popularity across generations of filmgoers? As both a theoretical construct and a real world practice, cinematic experience is necessarily implicated in systems of social and cultural stratification, and thus subject to the drive for symbolic distinction amongst classes. As such, practical logics grounded in specific cultural arbitraries hinder illumination of the complexities of film going, perpetuating epistemological errors based in social ignorance and therefore denying a new understanding of cinematic experience in its embodied state. By uncovering the key theoretical and methodological fallacies informing scholastic knowledge production within the discipline of film studies, the sociological program of Pierre Bourdieu allows for the systematic mapping of cinematic experience as an economy of exchange � an economy engaging specialised categories of patron recognition and appreciation in order to offer an experience of recognised social value. Whilst subject to a range of both theoretical and methodological criticisms, ultimately the deficiencies of Bourdieu�s program are outweighed by the benefits of reflexive sociology in developing the autonomy of the field of film studies, allowing for future film study fully cognizant of the mechanisms of symbolic violence and thus academic knowledge production more attentive to the destructive logic of the open market.

Full text

Abstract:

This thesis -- originally entitled “Reckoning the Unnamed Fabric”, both a cultural study of the poetics of ecological consciousness and the ecology of poetic consciousness -- investigates the post-Romantic legacy informing John Burnside’s (b. 1955) poetry from The hoop (1988) to The Light Trap (2002) as a case study. The thesis argues that a developing aesthetic form and movement in subject derive from Burnside’s increasing involvement with ecological thought and practice. This move to the poetry of the oikos begins with an investigation of the self through the reconciliation of subject with object (or human with nature), and latterly has moved into a sustained reflection upon the idea of dwelling. This thesis relates the chronological development across Burnside’s nature poetry to an aesthetic infused with religious iconography and language, which via an evolving motif-poem of ‘world-soul’ or ‘communal fabric’ increases in its secular and empirical inflection. I read Burnside’s elevation of historical materialism s a progression in Wordsworthian craft and as a result of the poet’s pragmatic reflection on dwelling; I argue that the poetic consolidation of the intrinsic value of nature as an active and guiding spirit promotes nature less as a place for inhabitants than as the site and point of relation. The argument responds to Burnside’s transatlantic perspective from which he questions what it means to live as a spirit, and what a poetics of ecology can achieve in respect to the human subjective lyric and the need to transcend the human into the collective. To address these questions, which are implicit in Burnside's oeuvre, I draw upon Heideggerian poetics and American post-Transcendentalist Romanticism. I locate Burnside’s poetics within philosophical, aesthetic, and ecological frameworks. First, Burnside’s poetry is primarily a poetics of ontology that understands the ‘I’ within the midst of things yet underpinned by epistemology/hermeneutics; second, Burnside exhibits neo-Romantic poetry that has engaged with Modern American poetry -- it is this fusion that I call post-Romantic; third, the ecological constitutes both Burnside’s political stance and his aesthetic-poetic stance. I read the latter as a reflection of Jonathan Bate’s notion of the ecopoem as the “post-phenomenological inflection of high Romantic poetics”, an idea which is most apposite when read in relationship with Burnside’s path towards the metaphysical inscribed in the historical.

Abstract:

Demanding Taxation, disciplining, and even at times requiring the sacrifice of life, the State is undoubtedly one of the most influential and important structures within a subject's existence. Nonetheless, despite these great demands, very few subjects actually choose or construct the State they inhabit. On the contrary subjects rather find themselves born into these great structures which transcend their existence. Consequently understanding how subjects come to learn about, and relate to, these great structures they are thrown into is vital for both an understanding of politics and the human condition generally. In this thesis I will explore an alternative approach to investigating the subject and State relationship: The ‘Subjective approach'. Inspired by the thought of Danish Philosopher Søren Kierkegaard, the aim of this approach will be to explore the encounters that the subject has with the State, what perception of the State is given to subjects in these encounters, and how the relationship between subject and State grows out of such encounters. The aim of this thesis is therefore to provide prolegomena to such an approach. I shall aim to outline why such an approach should be considered for investigating subject and State relations, and explore how one may begin articulating such an approach.

Full text

Abstract:

Various disciplines such as rhetoric, marketing, and psychology have explored persuasion as a social and argumentative phenomenon. The present thesis is predominantly based in cognitive psychology and investigates the psychological processes the persuadee undergoes when faced with a persuasive attempt. The exploration concludes with the development of a concrete model for describing persuasion processing, namely The Subjective-Probabilistic Interactive Model of Persuasion (SPIMP). In addition to cognitive psychology, the thesis relies on conceptual developments and empirical data from disciplines such as rhetoric, economics, and philosophy. The core model of the SPIMP relies on two central persuasive elements: content strength and source credibility. These elements are approached from a subjective perspective in which the persuadee estimates the probabilistic likelihood of how strong the content and how credible the source is. The elements, however, are embedded in a larger psychological framework such that the subjective estimations are contextual and social rather than solipsistic. The psychological framework relies on internal and external influences, the scope of cognition, and the framework for cognition. The SPIMP departs significantly from previous models of persuasion in a number of ways. For instance, the latter are dual-processing models whereas the SPIMP is an integrated single-process approach. Further, the normative stances differ since the previous models seemingly rely on a logicist framework whereas SPIMP relies on a probabilistic. The development of a new core model of persuasion processing constitutes a novel contribution. Further, the theoretical and psychological framework surrounding the elements of the model provides a novel framework for conceptualising persuasion processing from the perspective of the persuadee. Finally, given the multitude of disciplines connected to persuasion, the thesis provides a definition for use in future studies, which differentiates persuasion from argumentation, communicated information updating, and influence.

Abstract:

This dissertation explores the transmission of the letters of Pope Leo the Great (pope, 440-461). In Chapter 1, I set out the contours of Leo’s papacy from external sources and from the letters, showing the significance of these letters for understanding his papacy and its context: our vision of the mid-fifth century would be much scantier without them. After discussing the letters in context and as sources, I conclude this chapter by examining the varied editions of his letters from Giovanni Bussi in 1470, through the only full edition, that of the Ballerini brothers in the 1750s, to the partial editions of Eduard Schwartz and Carlos Silva-Tarouca in the 1930s, a tribute to Leo’s enduring importance. Chapter 2 deals in detail with the pre-Carolingian canonical collections of Leo’s letters, beginning with the earliest in the late 400s and early 500s. Through these collections, I trace the ongoing significance of Leo for canon law as well as noting the links between early Italian collections, e.g. Teatina, Sanblasiana, and Quesnelliana, and postulate that one Gallic collection, Corbeiensis, was the source of another, Pithouensis. I also question the concept of a ‘renaissance gélasienne’ while still admitting the importance of this period for canonical activity. Chapter 3 deals with the letter collections gathered in relation to the Council of Chalcedon (451) – the old Latin version, Rusticus’ version, and the later Latin text, assessing their relationships and importance for our knowledge of Leo as well. Chapter 4 is an exploration of Leo’s letters through the Carolingian and post-Carolingian Middle Ages. The Carolingian explosion of manuscripts is the most important assessed, and I deal with Leo’s various collections in the period, especially Pseudo-Isidore, and demonstrate their relationships and those between them and the earlier collections. To give the reader a sample of the editorial implications of my scholarship, I include as an appendix an edition of Ep. 167 with an apparatus detailing the most significant manuscripts and a translation of my edition as a second appendix. This popular letter exists in different recensions, so it serves an important key to Leo’s text criticism. The third appendix is a conspectus of the letters.
