Abstract:
ABSTRACTThomas Adès's third opera, The Exterminating Angel, is based closely upon Luis Buñuel's 1962 film El ángel exterminador, in which the hosts and guests at a high-society dinner party find themselves inexplicably unable to leave the dining room. Initial critical response to the opera too often focused on superficial similarities and discrepancies between the two works at the expense of attending to the specifically musical ways in which Adès presented the drama. This article explores the role that repetition plays in the opera, and in particular how repetitions serve both as a means of critiquing bourgeois sensibilities and as a representation of (loss of) will. I conclude by drawing on the work of Deleuze in order to situate the climax of the opera against the notion of the eternal return, highlighting how the music articulates the dramatic failure of the characters to escape.

Abstract:
Abstract I review biologist Chris D. Thomas’s book (2017) Inheritors of the Earth: How Nature is Thriving in an Age of Extinction and discuss its exposition and prescriptions. Thomas presents a fantastic exposition of the contemporary scientific literature documenting the biological gains mediated by human impacts on the nonhuman world. However, his prescriptions for a conservation ethic leave much to be desired. Thomas employs a philosophically narrow, positivist, and egoist approach to what is relevant when dealing with other sentient, sapient, and often social nonhuman beings. This culminates in an explicitly anthropocentric ethic that dismisses our moral obligations to nonhumans, both as individuals and collectives.

OVERHOFF, JÜRGEN. "The Theology of Thomas Hobbes's Leviathan." Journal of Ecclesiastical History 51, no. 3 (July 2000): 527–55. http://dx.doi.org/10.1017/s0022046900005157.

Full text
Abstract:
In his greatest piece of political philosophy, the Leviathan of 1651, Thomas Hobbes dedicated the astonishing mass of eighteen voluminous chapters solely to the discussion of religious matters. Although his earlier political treatises, The elements of law of 1640 and the De cive of 1642, discussed theological doctrines at some length, they never accorded so great a role to questions of religion and theology as did Leviathan. The two books of Leviathan in which Hobbes promulgated his theological doctrines are almost exactly equal in length to books I and II, and one of the chapters in book III (‘Of power ecclesiasticall’) is in some ways the longest chapter in the work. The kind of contentious eschatological doctrines which Hobbes had been careful to leave unchallenged in his early works, namely the question whether the soul had an independent existence after the death of the body, figured particularly high in Leviathan. Why was it that Hobbes's interest in theology increased so sharply between 1642 and 1651, and what was the particular point of the theology of Leviathan?

Full text
Abstract:
According to Keith Thomas in The Ends of Life: Roads to Fulfilment in Early Modern England, the social value system defining what constituted a life well lived changed dramatically in the period between the Reformation and the Enlightenment, becoming more individualistic and secular, as well as less aristocratic and hierarchical. Although Thomas' subtly argued and beautifully written study draws on a vast array of sources and demonstrates his vast expertise in the fields of early modern intellectual and cultural history, it does contain a number of conceptual and methodological problems that serve to undermine aspects of the argument. Ultimately, a more comparative approach would have proven beneficial, although it is certainly easier to make a case for secularization over time if one chooses to leave out religion.

In this article, Ms. Krieger explores the controversy concerning pregnancy disability leave presented by the case of California Federal Savings v. Guerra in light of Thomas Kuhn's model of scientific paradigm change and Carol Gilligan's theory regarding sex differences in moral reasoning. She argues that the controversy reflects a period of paradigm crisis in equality jurisprudence, brought about in part by the recent inclusion of greater numbers of women into the jurisprudential community.

Full text
Abstract:
The PhD. dissertation Written Voice examines how Walt Whitman and Henry Miller through books, confined textual products of modernity, strive to awaken the reader to a more perceptive and courageous life, provided that the reader is willing to suspend hermeneutics of suspicion and approach Leaves of Grass and Tropic of Cancer with hermeneutics of hunger. This is examined from linguistic, anthropological and theological vantage point of oral theory (M. Jousse, M. Parry, A. Lord, W. Ong, E. Havelock, J. Assmann, D. Abram, C. Geertz, T. Pettitt, J. Nohrnberg, D. Sölle, etc.). This work thus compares Leaves (1855) and Tropic of Cancer examining their paratextual, stylistic features, their genesis, the phenomenology of their I's, their ethos and story across the compositions. By "voluntary" usage of means of oral mnemonics such as parallelism/bilateralism (Jousse) - along with present tense, imitatio Christi and pedagogical usage of obscenity - both authors in their compositions attack the textual modern discourse, the posteriority, nostalgia and confinement of literature, restore the body, and aim for futurality of biblical kinetics. It is the reader's task, then, to hermeneutically resurrect the dead printed words of the compositions into their own "flesh" and action. The third part of the thesis...

Abstract:
Understanding acumen and politics plus German culture and Western civilisation as diametrically opposed is a German disease which Thomas Mann also succumbed to. Initially, Mann did not regard democracy as an appropriate form of government for Germans as they were not able to love politics: he was therefore just one apolitical individual among many. Eventually, Thomas Mann liberated himself from this prejudiced approach to politics and the apolitical, and came to terms with democracy. From then on, he countered radicalism’s propensity to use violence with republican reason, which led to him being treated with hostility, persecuted and forced into exile. Politics, which was originally alien to him, swept its way into his life and forced him to adopt a standpoint on it, without him ever having become a political person or even a political thinker at heart. His comments on politics did not leave West and East Germans unaffected, especially as the idea of a cultural nation, through which acumen suddenly legitimised politics, was one of the few things which held the seemingly irreconcilably divided nations together. In post-war Germany, Thomas Mann increasingly became a ‘Praeceptor Germaniae’ (one of the country’s most eminent teachers). In this book, prominent experts clearly depict his gravitation towards the republic, his road into exile, his fight against Hitler and his influence on a divided Germany. With contributions by Manfred Görtemaker, Philipp Gut, Helmut Koopmann, Horst Möller, Heinrich Oberreuter, Julia Schöll, Hans-Rudolf Vaget, Georg Wenzel, Ruprecht Wimmer and Hans Wisskirchen.

Full text
Abstract:
In examining the case of Thomas Jefferson, the author shows how the impediments to good moral deliberation—cultural pressures and norms, the complexity of consequences, emotions, and self-deception—played a role in his thinking about slavery. The chapter also shows how these impediments play a role in our own thinking about our treatment of nonhuman animals and how the tools of moral philosophy can serve as a way of dealing with those impediments. We have to learn how to balance our own interests against those of others, and how to balance the interests of loved ones against the interests of strangers. We cannot leave moral action to the mercy of conscience, if we mean by conscience whatever we happen to think is the right thing to do. Employing the tools of moral philosophy in moral education can help us to raise good moral deliberators and, hopefully, good moral agents.

Abstract:
In 1590, Edward Allde printed a slim quarto of thirty-six leaves containing John Lydgate’sThe Serpent of Devision(1422) and Thomas Norton and Thomas Sackville’sTragedye of Gorboduc(first performed in 1561). This article examines the extent and nature of the “cultural reformations” that occurred in late medieval and Tudor England, using the joint publication of the two works as a useful starting point. It considers three types of community: the national communities – Gorboduc’s Britain and Caesar’s Rome – that these texts depict; the imagined communities of readers/spectators that they address; and the Elizabethan political community that they envisage. It also discusses the often interrelated processes of religious, social, political, technological, and cultural change witnessed in the period and analyses the ways in which these processes can be traced through the revisions made to the fifteenth-centurySerpentfor its publication in 1590.

Abstract:
AbstractOne of the paradoxes of the misinformation and ‘fake news’ debates are that they require a greater degree of trust in media, digital platforms and governments in order to combat conspiracy theories, when in fact distrust of media, digital platforms and governments is part of a wider crisis of trust in institutions and expertise. This suggests that we need a more sophisticated analysis of the politics of expertise and how they intersect with both policies towards digital platforms and shifts in the political sphere. Drawing upon the work of Thomas Piketty on shifts in electoral politics, and Pippa Norris on the rise of populism, it is argued that debates about tech policy are largely played out between educated elites from ‘liberal’ and ‘cosmopolitan’ perspectives, which leaves them open to populist critique. One of the reasons why there are greater calls to regulate digital platforms is the rise of political populism, which can leave digital activists in a political bind: they favour measures to rein in the power of ‘Big Tech’ in principle, but are very wary of any measures perceived to increase the power of nation states with regards to the Internet.

Abstract:
Chapter two argues that Thomas Pringle’s experiences of exile and displacement informed his editorial contributions to The History of Mary Prince (1831), the first narrative of a black woman’s life published in Britain. While critics have looked at Pringle’s contributions to emphasize the intercultural aspects of the History and slave narratives more generally, few have attended to the transnational elements of Pringle’s own background. In 1820, the collapse of his family’s fortune forced Pringle and his family to leave Scotland and sail for the Cape Colony, where he led a party of Scottish immigrants to newly opened settlements along the frontier. Tensions with colonial officials forced Pringle to leave, and he resettled in London, where he became secretary of the Anti-Slavery Society and crossed paths with Prince. As a product of a Scottish diaspora, Pringle’s contribution manifests a partial identification with Prince, while providing its own distinct expression of dispossession..

Abstract To paraphrase: Pick an action that you regard to be wrong, clearly wrong. For me, torturing people just for fun would be a good example. Then make a list of all the natural features of the action that make it wrong. (Leave aside supernatural features, such as divine approval.) For instance, torturing people just for fun involves causing intense pain in humans, solely for the enjoyment of the one who inflicts the pain. If your list of natural, wrong-making features is really complete, can you conceive of another action with the very same features that is not wrong? No, says Swinburne.

Abstract Although the Hardys did not get away from Wimborne in April 1883, they were able to do so at midsummer, when the second year of their lease expired. ‘We leave this place in the latter part of the month—much to my exhilaration, ‘ Hardy told Gosse on 12 June. ‘A man has been here to look at our furniture, which he “carries in his eye” (so he says) till he has made an estimate for removing it. ‘¹ But if Hardy was glad to turn his back on Wimborne, the time spent there had been by no means unproductive. It had provided him with a comfortable and undemanding context in which to recover from his illness. It had given him the opportunity to get the ‘feel ‘ of Dorset again without having to confront the kinds of social pressure that the return to Dorchester would bring. And it had allowed and even compelled him to undertake that reconsideration of his whole career—past, present, and future—which would eventually bear fruit in The Mayor of Casterbridge and the other major achievements of the next several years.

Abstract:
The majority of this chapter is dedicated to exploring the most controversial and destructive incident of Johnson’s management of Latin American policy, the intervention in the Dominican Republic in April 1965. By considering the decision to intervene, the period of occupation, and the Organization of American States (OAS)–supervised elections that followed, the impact and significance of the first use of US forces in the hemisphere since the 1930s can be thoroughly unpacked. A turning point in Johnson’s presidency, the intervention was in some respects a success, with few casualties and the eventual election of a US-friendly government. However, it also severely damaged relations with Congress and the press, alienated masses of Latin Americans, undermined trust in the OAS, and convinced Thomas Mann to leave government service after more than twenty years. This use of force occurring at the same time as American troops were introduced in Vietnam, its relevance is readily apparent.

Abstract Although young James Rapier was hoping to return south when the Civil War commenced, he had at least found religion and had settled into a steady life teaching in Buxton. His uncle Henry had committed himself to raising his family on a farm. Henry’s brother John Rapier Sr., after debating whether or not to leave Florence, had decided to ride out the southern troubles at home. But two of Sally Thomas’s family were still birds unwilling to perch. Both her son James Thomas and her grandson John Rapier Jr. continued to feel uncomfortable about worsening conditions in the South, so that when John Jr. took passage from Minnesota heading south along the Mississippi, he intended to return to the Caribbean, where he had traveled with his uncle James Thomas. James, too, was unsettled. But unlike John Rapier Jr., he had not given up on the Midwest.

Abstract We have three main sources for our knowledge of Aquinas’s life. The first is the text of his canonization process (Naples 1319). Then there are two early biographies. One is by William Tocco, who knew Aquinas personally. The other is by Bernard Gui, whose account depends partly on that of Tocco, but may also incorporate independent and reliable information. Putting these documents together allows us to form a generally credible outline of Aquinas’s career. But they also leave us with many unanswered, and probably unanswerable, questions. Hence we find that the three most recent biographies of Aquinas differ significantly on a number of issues. They do so, for example, even when it comes to the year of Aquinas’s birth, which can arguably be placed anywhere from 1224 to 1226.

Abstract Doktor Faustus attempts the impossible: to encompass and explain the German catastrophe. What happened to Germany and what was done by Germans under Hitler was horrible on such a scale that it defies the resources of artistic imagination to formulate it and perhaps even casts doubt on the possibility of an adequate tragic art in modern times. But to defy means to challenge. How could Thomas Mann have refused the challenge? He had spent a lifetime evolving means for just such a task, learning to say the general-by allegory, symbol, myth-through the particular. In Der :(,auberberg he had embodied complex truths about an earlier phase of German history and society in the fate of a single individual. Besides, he was at root an Erlebnisdichter. He had put too much of his substance into the fight against Hitler, brooded too much over what made Hitler possible, suffered too much from the distortion of his country and its culture to be able to leave the account artistically unsettled.

Abstract Merchant William Bell resolves to leave Salt Lake City and Utah as war with the approaching troops appears to be inevitable. Bell has married into the Benbow family, which had supported Brigham Young and others in their missionary efforts in England but now wants to leave Mormonism and Utah. Young sends a letter with Bell’s company to Isaac Haight and John D. Lee to ensure this company passes through southern Utah safely. Jacob Hamblin prevents yet another assault on an emigrant train when he protects them from a contemplated attack near the Muddy River. Meanwhile, Thomas L. Kane visits President Buchanan about Young’s warning. Buchanan brushes Kane’s concerns off until he receives word of Mormon militiamen burning the army’s supply trains. Buchanan and Secretary of War John Floyd then lobby Congress for funding for more troops to send to Utah, while Kane departs for Utah as an emissary of peace.

Full text
Abstract:
Some historically successful engineering inventions have been designed by trial and error as was the famous case of Thomas Edison’s light bulb. No contemporary design researcher would advocate a tedious, trial-and-error methodology as the basis for engineering practice. The 21st century engineer is expected to create innovative solutions to real world problems with limited resources and limited time. Successful engineering design methods are those that substitute trial-and-error with practice-based guidance (e.g., TRIZ), mathematical analysis (e.g., optimization), general problem-solving strategies (e.g., functional decomposition and synthesis), or good cognitive thinking strategies (e.g., Synectics). This research is placed in the last category, studying the cognitive processes that can be observed in recorded work of engineering designers. This study is the first step in research intended to go further into the designers mind and reveal new insights about the design process. This paper presents a cognitive coding scheme model to organize and categorize designer “thinking” as recorded in design documentation. The product of this research can be used to instruct curriculum on teaching the design process for students and professional engineers.

This study aims to present the philosophical-religious and political-social theses of Martin Luther, as well as the time-specific social construction in which his concepts were born. The research methodology is philosophical-historical, implying the following content of the text: Introduction; Erasmus of Rotterdam and Thomas More - they are perceived as harbingers of free thought in Europe, but at the same time, in principle, both Erasmus and More remained to a greater or lesser extent convinced Catholics. It is no accident that most of their works are studies of religious texts; The Reformation was a consequence of violent socio-economic and political transformations; Martin Luther; A conclusion outlining the influence of Luther's theses and how his teaching played an extremely important role in creating a paradigm in interfaith relations in the Middle Ages. The Reformation was not only the cause of the Western Schism (1374-1417), which modeled relations in Europe and the Christian world. It created a system of international relations, parts of whose profile leave imprints to this day.
