    The article discusses the background to the erection of the huge church tower in Bjälbo, Östergötland, Sweden. It also focuses on medieval women as founders of churches. The author maintains that new dendrochronological dating of the tower could mean that founder of this building piece was not one of the male members of the important Bjälbo dynasty, but Ingrid Ylva the mother of Birger Jarl

    Francis Bacon's science of magic

    Get PDF
    This thesis seeks to explain how Francis Bacon promoted a materialist ontology whilst at the same time designating the goal of his inquiry into nature "true natural magic. " It attempts to establish the precise relationships among Bacon's concepts of matter, inquiry and magic in terms of his novel conception of nature. Baconian matter forms the basis of Bacon's substantive natural philosophy; it is highly potent and the unique source of operative power. In its unhampered or "free" state, nature takes the easiest and most economic route leaving a reservoir of unused possibility. To access the benefits of this unexploited potential, the Baconian mage experimentally and methodically deflects nature from its habitual course. Thus Baconian operational power is derived from constraining or binding nature so as to activate matter's dormant powers. For Bacon, magic is the artful constraint of nature. Through harnessing the primitive and archetypal powers of matter, Baconian magic would achieve what the magical and alchemical traditions had attempted haphazardly. Magic constitutes the capstone of Bacon's reform of natural philosophy and it relies fundamentally on a plenipotentiary matter. The inquiry prepares and guides the mind in its efforts to achieve that goal. Although these themes are often fragmented by commentators, they form a coherent natural philosophical foundation for Bacon's Instauratio magna. Their reintegration requires a return to Bacon's texts. A close reading of Bacon's works demonstrates a complex but internally coherent substantive philosophy. By placing Bacon's materialism centre-stage, in conjunction with thorough and detailed exegesis, longstanding disputes over central Baconian concepts can be resolved

    Global climate change is causing more extreme droughts, as well as subtler chronic changes in precipitation patterns. Both chronic and extreme precipitation change can alter ecosystem structure and function, and these alterations may affect how systems respond to future extreme climatic events. Understanding how legacies of various past precipitation changes may alter the effects of future extreme droughts will be important for predicting ecosystem responses to climate change. We investigated how ecological legacies of experimentally-imposed chronic and extreme precipitation changes altered the impact of an extreme drought on an economically-important grassland ecosystem.Top Scholars for University-Wide Graduate Programs

    Codependency and Enmeshment: A Fusion of Concepts

    No full text
    Codependency and Enmeshment have been used interchangeably in psychological and psychotherapeutic practice. The commentary offers a discussion of the conceptual development of both concepts, highlighting the historical differences and similarities. It suggests that there are specific schemas and modes which operate within the scope of both concepts. The Bacon & Conway 2021 Model is introduced to describe the schemas and modes associated with enmeshment and codependency. The conceptual model of enmeshment of codependency is offered with the intention to help the reader to identify and find ways to address these patterns. A fictional case scenario was offered to illustrate the discussion. Further research is currently being developed to offer a robust empirical base for the model proposed

    "Report Author: Ingrid C. Garrison"--Page 18.; "April 21, 2016."; Includes bibliographical and internet references (page 12)."Arboviruses (arthropod-borne virus) are commonly spread to humans through the bites of infected mosquitoes, ticks, sand flies, or midges. This report focuses on those arboviruses transmitted by mosquitoes. West Nile virus is the leading cause of domestically acquired arboviral disease in the United States and Kansas.
