Canon Auto Zoom 518 Super 8 Camera
No full textCanon provides imaging, optical, and industrial products, such as lenses, cameras, scanners, medical equipment, printers, and semiconductor manufacturing equipment. In April 1964, Eastman Kodak announced a new 8mm film standard: Super 8. This standard had a larger image size than regular 8, and the film was contained in an easy-to-handle cartridge. The new standard severely impacted other manufacturers, leading others including Canon to develop its first Super 8 model: the Zoom 518 Super 8. This camera was the first movie camera to use ABS on its exterior, which later became standard.“MarketLine Company Profile: Canon Inc.” 2022, Canon Inc.

The Muratorian fragment and the development of the canon
Full text linkThe traditional consensus that the New Testament Canon was formed by the end of the second century has been weakened by the results of modern studies. The traditional viewpoint now depends primarily upon the evidence of the Muratorian Fragment. Albert C. Sundberg, Jr., in his argument for a revision of the history of the Christian Canon, has called for the redating of the Muratorian Fragment. Through a careful analysis of the Fragment's traditional dating, and of its place within the history of the Canon, this study will confirm Sundberg's theory. The second century date of the Fragment is ultimately dependent upon the simple Latin phrase, nuperrime temporibus nostris, within a series of references to The Shepherd of Hermas. Sundberg has attempted to broaden the common interpretation of this phrase, but the commonly held interpretation is dubious in itself because of the known poor transcription and the suspected careless translation of the Fragment, and because the other references to The Shepherd are erroneous and late. No other references within the Fragment support a conclusive second century date. Within the history of the Christian Canon, the Fragment, if traditionally dated, is a serious anomaly in terms of concept, form, and contents. There is nothing to distinguish the Fragment from the fifteen undisputed Catalogues which appear in the fourth and early fifth century, and nothing to suggest that the Fragment is earlier. Indeed, there are numerous elements within the Fragment that are unparalleled in the West or are exceptional until later. The cumulative evidence is too siqnificant to be dismissed because of one, most likely incorrect, association of Hermas with Pius of Rome. The Muratorian Fragment redated as a fourth century Eastern document, possibly originating from Palestine or western Syria around 375, is a more reasonable conclusion of the evidence available
El canon y la tradición judeocristiana
No full textSi nuestra noción de clásico irremediablemente remite a la Antigüedad grecolatina, nuestra noción de canon hace lo propio con la tradición judeocristiana.

Affect and digital caregiving: challenging the performing arts canon with a ‘dig where you stand’ database
No full textThis article addresses the affective dimensions of caregiving in relation to materials outside the canon, influenced by Caswell and Cifor’s notion of radical empathy. The article employs the author’s positionality and lived experience, using specific examples to illustrate ‘zones of friction’ where the dominant discourse and its processes of canon formation show themselves, and how radical empathy can expose and destabilize the performing arts canon. The author begins to use these examples, and the feelings they evoke, as a waymarking tool for the application of methodologies such as ‘dig where you stand.’ This data collection methodology, by recording a wider and more inclusive range of participants as of equal value to performing arts work (in this case), brings Caswell and Cifor’s ‘caregiving’ to more stakeholders. The notion of ‘transforming affect into substantial data’ exemplifies the article’s engagement with the canon to articulate the potential for transformation

unboxing the canon - Episode 5: Taken from the Headlines
Full text link“Taken from the Headlines” considers European history painting, its roots and its legacies. What exactly are history paintings? And why are they significant in the canon of Western art? In this episode of “Unboxing the Canon” Dr. Steer examines these questions along with some historical examples before turning to the present moment to consider how artists use this genre today and reflect on some of its limitations. This episode covers the concept of istoria and Renaissance narrative paintings, dramatic 19th century history paintings in France and their relationship to politics, and contemporary Indigenous work dealing with the trauma of the residential school system in Canada.HRI at Brock Universit
Concept of canon in literary studies: critical debates 1970-2000.
Full text linkThe present thesis focuses on the critical dialogues on the literary canon developed
between 1970 and 2000 in the United States as a crucial juncture for the consolidation
of the notion of canon as a scholarly subject matter within the field of literary studies.
By taking stock of the abundance of scholarly contributions on the literary canon
produced at this time, this thesis pursues two aims: first, it initiates a process of
systematisation of the scholarly material on the canon produced during the last thirty
years of the twentieth century; second, it focuses on a selection of particularly
influential works that have furthered the understanding of specific aspects of the notion
of canon.
Two introductory chapters outline respectively the historical and the theoretical
background of this research. Chapter One explores the historical framework within
which the canon started to receive increasing critical attention inside and outside U.S.
academia. In particular, it observes how the historical and cultural phenomenon known
as the Culture Wars came to bear upon the way in which the notion of canon was
perceived and treated by critics and scholars. Early and later examples of canonical
criticism are juxtaposed so as to argue that the absorption of debates about the definition
of national cultural heritage within U.S. academia influenced the terms in which the
canon was being discussed, privileging oppositional rhetorical strategies over the more
moderate tones of early theoretical approaches. Chapter Two draws on Jan Gorak’s
work in The Making of The Modern Canon: Genesis and Crisis of a Literary Idea
(1991) to explore the history of the concept of canon and of its associations with the
diverging attitudes adopted by critics in relation to the canon in the period in exam.
The second part of this thesis constitutes of three case studies that illustrate the
significance for our understanding of the concepts of canon, canonicity and canon
formation, of three texts published in the 1990s by Harold Bloom, John Guillory and
Henry Louis Gates, Jr. Each chapter observes how these studies contributed to clarify
the relationship between the idea of canon and that of tradition, between canon and
ideology and, finally, between the canon and the anthology, respectively.
Chapter Three locates Bloom’s The Western Canon: The Books and Schools of Ages
(1994) in relation to his earlier theory of the anxiety of influence and argues that
Bloom’s account of canon formation relies on his definition of tradition as the agonistic
struggle between poets and their predecessors. Chapter Four is a close reading of John
Guillory’s Cultural Capital: The Problem of Literary Canon Formation (1993) and
explores the political ideology underlying its selective use of the work of Pierre
Bourdieu, Antonio Gramsci and T.S.Eliot. Finally, Chapter Five engages with Henry
Louis Gates, Jr.’s attempt to establish a canon of African American Literature through
his role as editor of the Norton Anthology of African American Literature (1996)
Foundations of a Sociology of Canon Law
Full text linkThis "Open Access" book investigates the legal reality of the church through a sociological lens and from the perspective of canon law studies, the discipline which researches the law and the legal structure of the Catholic Church. It introduces readers from various backgrounds to the sociology of canon law, which is both a legal and a theological field of study, and is the first step towards introducing a new subdiscipline of the sociology of canon law. As a theoretical approach to mapping out this field, it asks what theology and canon law may learn from sociology; it discusses the understanding of “law” in religious contexts; studies the preconditions of legal validity and effectiveness; and based on these findings it asks in what sense it is possible to speak of canon “law”. By studying a religious order as its struggles to find a balance between continuity and change, this book also contributes to the debates on religious law in modernity and the challenges it faces from secular states and plural societies. This book is of interest to researchers and students of the sociology of law, legal studies, law and religion, the sociology of religion, theology, and religious studies. This is an open access book
