    Cicely y David

    No full text
    “Quien conoce cuidados paliativos en el contexto de enfermedad grave no quiere otra cosa”. Esta frase que he escuchado enunciada de maneras diversas, pero siempre con el mismo sentido, pone de manifiesto el poder transformador de la cultura paliativa. Cicely Saunders, pionera de los cuidados paliativos, fue el motor de un nuevo modelo de atención para quienes se encontraban en el contexto de una enfermedad grave. La obra Cicely y David, ubicada en la Inglaterra de los siglos XX y XXI, cuenta precisamente cómo gracias a la intensa relación entre David Tasma, un inmigrante polaco enfermo de cáncer, y Cicely Saunders sirvió de inspiración para instaurar esta forma nueva y holística de cuidar. El texto acerca al lector, o más bien al espectador, a los valores fundacionales de los cuidados paliativos

    Poetry & sacrament: Being a commentary on the Kensington mass by David Jones

    No full text
    "The Kensington Mass" was the last poem of the Anglo-Welsh poet - painter David Jones (1895-1974). It at first describes the faithful, correct and unthreatened celebration of the introductory rite of the mass. The poem then changes direction and tone when the celebrant kisses the altar, so as to introduce an Emperor troubled by a dream. This alerts the reader that there is a collateral text, a dream poem, where the significance of the transformation is to be found. The Emperor decides to hunt on the morrow to ease his disquiet, and the resources of hunting are exploited as an analogy of the Eucharist. The hunt takes place at dawn - the dawn of the day and the dawn of an era - and the poet wakes up to a scene of loss, unlike the happy promise celebrated by Milton in his Hymn on the Morning of Christ's Nativity. There is a sharp break before the poem's last section, when Peter's denial of Christ reverberates through history, amplified by the treachery of Roncesvalles. This dolorous sound reveals the true and exact character of human existence. The clue to the significance of the last section of the poem and its bearing on what goes before also lies outside the text: the proposal is that it is Jones's distress, obliquely expressed, at the disintegration of the traditional Roman liturgy (a denial and a betrayal) that unifies the composition. The commentary traces what might be called the narrative line of the poem, as above. It also notes some of its influences, salient concepts, underlying shapes, the history of its characters, the sacramental theology that informed his thinking, and the modality of the gloomy assertion at the close

    Meticulously curated and edited by Esther C. Goddard and G. Edward Pendray, The Papers of Robert H. Goddard is a 1700-page 3 volume set published in 1970. The set presents a careful and exhaustive chronological presentation of Robert Goddard’s life through diary snippets, notebook entries, correspondence, publications, speeches, patent outlines, school papers, press, reports and more. This section covers Robert Goddard\u27s life from mid 1930 to mid 1932 when Goddard received his first Guggenheim grant (this one from Daniel) which would bring Robert and Esther to Roswell, New Mexico for two years of rocket research. They would soon relocate to Roswell for a much longer stretch of time, 1934-1942, under grants from the Daniel and Florence Guggenheim Foundation. In April of 1932, Goddard achieved the first flight of a rocket with gyroscopic stabilization. This section contains correspondence by, to, and about Robert H. Goddard from the following people and entities: Charles Greeley Abbot, John C. Merriam, Franz Oskar Leo Elder von Hoefft, Wallace W. Atwood, David Lasser, Ivy Lee, Carl L. Bausch, W.F. Clark, L.T.E.

    Faith at the fractures of life : an examination of lament and praise in response to human suffering with special reference to the theology of Walter Brueggemann and David Ford

    No full text
    This thesis explores the role of lament and praise in the respective theological approaches of Walter Brueggemann and David Ford for the purpose of examining how Christian faith transforms human response to suffering. The first three chapters trace Brueggemann’s engagement with Israel’s lament psalms, beginning with his observation that their typical dual form mirrors the collective shape of Israel’s psalter as well as all biblical faith. Influential interactions with sociology eventually lead Brueggemann to propose faith not simply as response to God’s faithfulness, but rather through rhetorical tension maintained between conflicts perceived in aspects of scripture such as praise and lament. We critique this view of irresolvable textual tension for leaving Brueggemann with an unresolved understanding of divine fidelity which obscures biblical expectation that God will respond faithfully to human lament. The fourth and fifth chapters concern David Ford’s consistent engagement with praise and subsequently, Christian joy. His early collaborative scholarship proposes praise as the result of faith in who God is through the suffering person and work of Jesus Christ. Nevertheless, continued ethical concerns lead Ford to identify Christian faith as an inextricable relationship between joy and responsibility resulting from “facing” Christ’s life and suffering death. We critique Ford for failing to clarify how such “facing” is made possible through who God is in Christ, rendering faith merely the result of human expression of Christ’s example, and thus obscuring any real reason for praise amidst suffering. Beyond a synthesis of Brueggemann and Ford’s respective approaches to lament and praise, the final chapter argues that a trinitarian approach to Christ’s atonement is necessary to propose how God confronts both suffering and sin thereby producing faithful human response amidst persistent evil. We conclude by arguing that a trinitarian understanding of praise cannot be proposed apart from either who God is in Christ’s atonement or how the atoning Christ is humanly faithful in lament

    Promoting a Department of Peace: An Exploration of Affective States and Political Perceptions

    No full text
    Two studies investigated the relationship between emotions and political proposals affecting national security. Study One examined the extent to which proposals, ostensibly undertaken to produce security, may actually increase anxiety. Participants (N = 131) were exposed to proposals for either missile defense or a Department of Peace, which either included or excluded information concerning the proposal\u27s author. Neither proposal affected general anxiety level, but participants exposed to the proposal for missile defense reported feeling less secure that the nation could be protected from attack. Belief in efficacy was relatively low, significantly lower than the modest belief in efficacy reported by those exposed to the proposal for a Department of Peace. Ratings of effectiveness were not significantly biased by author affiliation. Study Two examined the impact of induced affective state on judgments of program efficacy. University students (N = 36) were emotionally primed with comforting or threatening stimuli intended to affect feelings of anxiety. They were then exposed to either a proposal for missile defense or a proposal for a Department of Peace and asked to rate the proposal\u27s effectiveness. Priming efforts were successful in manipulating feelings of anxiety, but perceived efficacy was not affected. However, level of anxiety was positively correlated with the judged efficacy of missile defense and negatively correlated with the efficacy of a Department of Peace. Participants rated a Department of Peace as more effective than a missile defense program. Their comments suggest ways for engendering public support for the creation of a U.S. Department of Peace

    The neglected 95%, a challenge to psychology\u27s philosophy of science

    Responds to the comments of LoSchiavo F. M. and Shatz M. A. (see record 2009-13007-013); Webster G. D., Nichols A. L., and Schember T. O. (see record 2009-13007-014); Stroebe W. and Nijstad B. (see record 2009-13007-015); and Haeffel et al. (see record 2009-13007-016) on the author\u27s original article (see record 200814338-003) regarding the assertion that American psychology focuses too narrowly on Americans while neglecting the other 95% of the world’s population. The author indicates that the four comments were well chosen in that they represent quite different reactions to his article. In this rejoinder the author addresses the issues raised in each of the comments, first the two supporting comments and then the two opposing comments. Following this, he addresses the more general problem that cuts across the comments: American psychology’s dominant philosophy of science. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved

    Self-esteem in pure bullies and bully/victims: A longitudinal analysis

    No full text
    Past research on the self-esteem of bullies has produced equivocal results. Recent studies have suggested that the inconsistent findings may be due, in part, to the failure to account for bully/victims: those children who both bully and are victims of bullying. In this longitudinal study, we examined the distinctions among pure bullies, pure victims, bully/victims, and noninvolved children in a sample of 307 middle school students. Analyses of cross-sectional and longitudinal results supported the importance of distinguishing between pure bullies and bully/victims. In addition, results revealed some interesting sex differences: girls in the pure bully and bully/victim groups reported significant increases in self-esteem over time, with girls in the pure bully group reporting the greatest increase, whereas boys in these groups reported no significant changes in self-esteem over time. © The Author(s) 2010
