Commentary upon the Gospel according to Saint Luke by Saint Cyril of Alexandria. Part 2
No full textAs the title of this work broadly indicates, it is the translation into English of St. Cyril of Alexandria’s commentary on the Gospel of Luke. This manuscript document had recently been acquired by Oxford University in Syriac. Payne Smith published an edition, but quickly realized that the work would largely go ignored if it were not translated into English. Few scholars of his day were as able to undertake this task as Payne Smith. Cyril represented the extremely influential Alexandrian school of early Christianity that gave the church much of the material that would lead eventually to the doctrine of the Trinity. Needless to comment, Cyril’s own interpretation of one of the Gospels focuses a crucial eye on a major source for understanding early Christianity. Scholars of the Christian Scriptures will find a useful cross-section of early interpretation here, and students of the major figures of the Alexandrian school will garner some of Cyril’s considerable insights into Scripture. This book retains its value to students of many specializations in Late Antiquity.
Robert Payne Smith (1819-1895) was a priest who had studied Classics at Pembroke College, Oxford University. He later became Regius Professor of Divinity at Oxford University. He was eventually appointed the Dean of Canterbury Cathedral. He was most noted for his Syriac lexicon entitled Thesaurus Syriacus.Translated into English from an ancient Syriac version

Christosis: Pauline Soteriology in Light of Deification in Irenaeus and Cyril of Alexandria
No full textThe aim of this thesis is to explore whether and to what extent theosis helpfully captures Paul's presentation of the anthropological dimension of soteriology. Drawing methodologically from Gadamer, Jauss, and Bakhtin, we attempt to hold a conversation between Paul and two of his later interpreters--Irenaeus and Cyril of Alexandria--in order to see what light the development of deification in these later writers shines on the Pauline texts themselves.
In Part 1 of the thesis, we analyse how Irenaeus and Cyril develop their notions of deification and how they use Pauline texts in support of their conclusions. Drawing from Ps 82 both writers ascribe to believers the appellation of 'gods', and they associate this primarily with Pauline texts that speak of the experience of immortality, sanctification, and being sons of God. As believers experience this deifying move the image and likeness of God is restored through a participatory relationship with God mediated by Christ and the Spirit.
In Part 2 we then analyse the anthropological dimension of Paul's soteriology in Rom 8 and 2 Cor 3-5, with excursus on Gal 3-4, 1 Cor 15, and Phil 2-3. In the context of believers' restored divine-human relationship through Christ and the Spirit, Paul speaks of believers being conformed to the narrative of Christ's death and life, which culminates in an experience of divine and heavenly glory and immortality.
In Part 3 we offer a comparison of patristic views of deification and Paul's soteriology. While differences are clear, we conclude that Paul's soteriology overlaps significantly with that of these two later interpreters, such that deification is an apt description of the anthropological dimension of his soteriology. At the same time, christosis is probably a better term in today's context to capture his distinct emphasis on embodying Christ's death and life
SIMBOLIC SEMANTICS IN THE PRAISE OF CYRIL BY CLEMENT OF OHRID
No full textThe paper analyzes the Praise of Cyril by Clement of Ohrid, with a particular reference
to the central part of the Praise which implies the praise to Cyril through a blessing. We will
focus the attention on the arrangement of blessings in the Praise: lips, tongue, face, pupil eyes,
hands, fingers, legs, church. Guided by the literary-theoretical analysis, as well as by theological
and philosophical literature regarding the composition and semiotics of icons in Christianity,
we will try to discover a deeper meaning in the old text, since its high rhetoric turns into
a sacral discourse with eternal truths.Publishe

Clement Hoyler studied for one year at the Northwestern Lutheran College before he transferred to Moravian College and Theological Seminary. Hoyler graduated in 1892, and fifty-one years later the Moravian College and Theological Seminary granted him the degree of Doctor of Divinity as one of its outstanding graduates. Hoyler was ordained a deacon in 1892, and then a presbyter in 1898; he was consecrated a bishop at Lititz, Pa. in 1908. Hoyler was one of the youngest brethren in America ever to have been chosen for this office. Hoyler served for four years in Elizabeth, N.J. before embarking on the pioneer mission in Canada. Hoyler later became the leader of Moravian work in Canada, and the first president of the Canada district. While in Canada Hoyler took advantage of the opportunity to study the surrounding land and made significant contributions to the fields of astronomy, meteorology, and entomology. Clement Hoyler married Mary Gerdsen of Laketown in 1902. Their union was blessed with two children, Cyril and Mabel. Bishop Hoyler also served in Ephraim, Wis., and West Green Bay, Wis.

Rehypothecation
No full textHow would you feel if even though you were making regular monthly payments, your mortgage bank sold your house? This may seem like an odd question, but this type of situation happens every day in financial markets in a practice known as rehypothecation. Although such practices may be hard for nontraders to understand, rehypothecation is widespread in financial markets. Following the crisis of 2007-2009, the Dodd-Frank Act put restrictions on rehypothecation for derivatives. To understand the scope of these restrictions, we need to understand the role of rehypothecation in financial trades. In this article, Cyril Monnet discusses questions such as: Which party to a financial trade does rehypothecation benefit? Are there limits to its advantages? And how should it be regulated? There are no hard and fast answers to the last question, but the author notes that we can make a more informed decision about the pros and cons of various forms of regulation if we understand the underlying economics.Financial markets ; Financial Regulatory Reform (Dodd-Frank Act)
"An Inauthentic Georgian Epistle Attributed to Cyril of Alexandria"
No full textThis article considers the authenticity of a letter attributed to Cyril of Alexandria that survives only in two Georgian manuscripts. This letter stands at the head of a catena of exegetical fragments dealing with the Pauline epistles, and its author claims responsibility for compiling the subsequent collection of extracts from patristic authors. Although its existence has been known since the early twentieth century, and it was included in Cyril's corpus in the Clavis Patrum Graecorum, a critical edition of the letter was only recently published in 2003. We provide the first modern translation of the letter, and argue on the basis of its contents that Cyril was almost certainly not its author

Le télétravail est-il synonyme d’exode urbain ? Les enseignements du premier confinement en France
No full textInternational audienceThis article explores the potentialities of telework, a topic with rich in scientific literature since the 1980s, which is being updated with its forced generalisation in response to the COVID-19 pandemic emergency. This study analyses the impact of telework on population movements in the singular context of the first lockdown in France (from 17 March to 10 May 2020). Our results highlight that (i) people with a teleworking habit did not increased their change of residency before the lockdown in comparison to people without this habit; (ii) when they moved, a qualitative difference could be observed during the two groups; (iii) if the telework habit contribute to protect people about their occupations, they not necessarily enjoyed more this period than people without teleworking habit. In conclusion, this work aims to contribute to the ongoing reflections on the spatial consequences and the reorganisation of territories, which constitutes a major challenge for political and economic decision-makers.Cet article explore les potentialités du télétravail, un sujet riche en littérature scientifique depuis les années 1980, qui s’actualise avec sa généralisation forcée en réponse à l'urgence sanitaire causée par le Covid-19. Cette étude analyse l'impact qu’a eu l’habitude de télétravailler sur les mouvements de population dans le contexte singulier du premier confinement en France (du 17 mars au 10 mai 2020). Nos résultats montrent que (i) les actifs habitués au télétravail n’ont pas plus déménagé à l’annonce du confinement que les non habitués ; (ii) lorsqu’ils ont changé de résidence, une différence qualitative pouvait être observée entre ces deux groupes ; (iii) si l’habitude au télétravail a permis de protéger les actifs sur le plan professionnel, ils n’ont pas nécessairement mieux vécu le confinement que les autres actifs. En conclusion, ce travail contribue aux réflexions en cours concernant l’arrivée de nouveaux télétravailleurs nés à la suite du Covid-19 sur les conséquences spatiales et la réorganisation des territoires, ce qui constitue un défi majeur pour les décideurs politiques et économiques
