Genesis Breyer P-Orridge : Sacred Intent : Conversations with Carl Abrahamsson 1986–2019
No full text"Three decades of conversations with Genesis Breyer P-Orridge, provocateur, artist, gender revolutionary and leader of the bands Throbbing Gristle, Psychic TV and more
Published for legendary artist and musician Genesis Breyer P-Orridge’s 70th birthday in 2020, Sacred Intent gathers conversations between Breyer P-Orridge and his friend and collaborator, the Swedish author Carl Abrahamsson. From the first 1986 fanzine-based interview about current projects, philosophical insights, magical workings, international travels, art theory and gender revolutions, to 2019’s thoughts on life and death in the the shadow of battling leukaemia, Sacred Intent is a unique journey in which the art of conversation blooms to the highest degree." -- Distributor's website
The Genesis of Feynman Diagrams
No full textIn a detailed reconstruction of the genesis of Feynman diagrams the author reveals that their development was constantly driven by the attempt to resolve fundamental problems concerning the uninterpretable infinities that arose in quantum as well as classical theories of electrodynamic phenomena. Accordingly, as a comparison with the graphical representations that were in use before Feynman diagrams shows, the resulting theory of quantum electrodynamics, featuring Feynman diagrams, differed significantly from earlier versions of the theory in the way in which the relevant phenomena were conce
Mirror neurons : a biological genesis of relational
No full textThe genesis of complementarity is explained based on complex neuronal systems among which are mirror neurons. This network is much more than just a mirror because, in its interaction with other brain areas, it makes it possible to configure symmetric and asymmetric relationships. Symmetric relationships are based on incidental or intentional mimicry behaviors based on the minimum difference with respect to the displayed and perceived actions, as well as emotional contagion and empathy. Asymmetric relationships, however, are based on the inhibition of mimicry, which controls the motor responses of the sensorimotor system. We present the brain areas and circuits involved in each case. In this paper, originality is achieved by interlacing the different subsystems of neuronal action with the types of relationships that make up complementarity. It is confirmed that all relationships are complementary from a relational meta-level perspective. In addition, these conclusions are shown in the optics of systemic psychotherapy, in order to reflect on the neurobiological substratum of patients’ dysfunctional relationships, as well, on the different relational positions that the expert can strategically adopt.Fil: Ceberio, Marcelo R.

A study of the works of Juan De Flores, with a critical edition of La Historia de Grisel y Mirabella
No full textPhDMy thesis is intended to throw new light on the
biography of the late-fifteenth-century writer Juan de
Flores and to elucidate various aspects of his role in
the development of the Spanish sentimental romance. To
this end, I have prepared a critical edition of his
romance La hiatQri. a sie Gr i. Bel y Mirak-elle (ca. 1480) in
the three distinct versions in which it is known to have
circulated: (1) an original text (preserved in MS
5-3-20, Biblioteca Colombina, Seville, fos. 69r-86r),
(2) a revised version (preserved in MS 940, Biblioteca
Trivulziana, Milan, fos. 1r-76v), and (3) a second
revision, probably anonymous (preserved in the eight
extant printed editions, which range in date from ca.
1495 to 1562). The edition contains a full corpus of
variants for the printed witnesses, along with
linguistic, exegetical and textual notes. Accompanying
this edition is a textual study (Chapter 3) in which I
establish the relationship to one another of the
surviving witnesses and discuss in detail the work's
genesis. The remaining chapters concern the attribution
to Flores of two works hitherto regarded as anonymous.
In Chapter 1, I argue that the known as La
==na-WQn da la zel a GTaniBla is modelled on GI, 1, Bgl y
Mirabelle, and I adduce stylistic and other
circumstantial evidence to show that Flores is probably
-2-
its author. Employing a similar methodology, I
demonstrate in Chapter 2 that Flores can be identified
as a royal chronicler to the Catholic Monarchs and
author of the GjQai-Qa i. nQQIp1at de 14a Ray! aa Qat4j
-Q4a"
Drawing on information in the chronicle, I provide a
plausible reconstruction of his life at the ducal court
of Alba and illustrate the importance of his
historiographic work for our understanding of his
fictional output. This thesis provides a revaluation of
Juan de Flores as a far more prolific, versatile and
influential author than has previously been recognized
Genesis
No full textThe book of Genesis has been called “the most important book ever written.” As the first book of the Bible, it not only contains or anticipates all the biblical truths, it is also the book that, more than any other biblical book, has impacted the whole of Scripture, and theology at large. Without the book of Genesis, the Bible would be incomprehensible.
According to author Jacques Doukhan, DHL, ThD, “The book of Genesis is…the ideal place to start our study, not only because it will help us understand our origins and destination, but also because it teaches us how to engage with and reach out to others. In the process we will be surprised by a God of love and mercy, whose first revelation is reported in the book of Genesis.” (Publisher web site)https://digitalcommons.andrews.edu/books/1021/thumbnail.jp
A New Framework for the Citation Indexing Paradigm
No full textA new citation indexing paradigm is proposed: the cascading citation indexing framework (c2IF, for short). It improves the way research publications are assessed for their impact in promoting science and technology. Given a collection of articles and their citation graph, citations are considered at the (article, author) level. Each one article is uniquely identified by means of the Digital Object Identifier (DOI, http://www.doi.org). To identify each one author uniquely, a Universal Author Identifier (UAI) scheme is established. In addition to the citations directly made to a given (article, author) pair, citation paths that target each one citing article are also considered. The granularity of the paradigm is further increased by introducing the concept of the chord, whereby a citation path of length one co-exists with paths of length two or higher, involving the same source- and target- articles. The c2IF output emerges in the form
of a medal standings table, analogous to the one that ranks teams at athletic events: when two (article, author) pairs receive the same number of (direct) citations, the one that is cited by more popular articles (i.e. articles that comprise targets to a larger number of paths in the citation graph), is assigned a higher rank value
The intertextual reception of Genesis 1-3 in Irenaeus of Lyons
No full textThis thesis explores the intertextual nature of Irenaeus’ reading of Genesis 1-3. In this study, we assume a different mode of investigation than previous works on Irenaeus’ use of scripture. Drawing from contemporary discussions on intertextuality in Fishbane, Boyrin, Hays, and Young, we challenge a tradition of investigation into Irenaeus’ exegesis that has marginalized the significance of scriptural networking inherent to his hermeneutic. This perspective is evident in the previous works on Irenaeus’ reading of Genesis in Orbe, Jacobsen, Kannengiesser, Steenberg, and Holsinger-Friesen. This thesis, on the other hand, brings together an appreciation for Irenaeus’ hermeneutic with respect to his exegesis of Gen 1-3. We show that in every instance Irenaeus interprets Gen 1-3, not in isolation, but in correlation with other texts by means of a variety of intertextual reading strategies that shape his theological polemic. In chapter one we investigate the nature of Irenaeus’ hermeneutical orientation based upon studies of patristic exegesis and his own descriptions of the exegetical task. We show that Irenaeus purposes to interconnect texts in his refutation and exegesis and we formulate a methodology that appreciates his reading of Gen 1-3 within this theological networking of texts. In chapters 2-6, we provide a literary analysis of the echoes, allusions, and citations of Gen 1-3 in each book of Adversus Haereses. In each case we isolate the allusions to Gen 1-3 and the corresponding interrelated texts that form a hermeneutically symbiotic relationship with Gen 1-3. We show how these textual relationships yield a more comprehensive appreciation for the meaning and function of Gen 1-3 in Irenaeus. In chapter 7 we conclude with a summary and cumulative evaluation of the intertextual relationships fashioned with Gen 1-3 and the reading strategies that guide his intertextual use of Gen 1-3. In doing so, this thesis exposes the intricacies of Irenaeus’ theological and intertextual reading of Gen 1-3 and the various ways that Irenaeus harmonizes scripture

El “Triunfo de la Santa Cruz” en los flores sanctorum: pervivencia en castellano de un texto latino medieval
No full textThe Castilian legendaries or flores sanctorum printed in the sixteenth century reproduce a history of the battle of Las Navas de Tolosa whose origin is in a Medieval Latin text preserved in the “Office of the Feast of the Holy Cross” of the Cistercian Lectionary of Las Huelgas. This study analyzes the genesis and transmission of this history, as well as joining the Castilian legendary and possible authorship
Families and God-human Interactions in Genesis
No full textThis study carefully analyzes the themes found in various interactions between God and humans in the book of Genesis, viewing them through the lens of family. The majority of the texts that record direct verbal communication between God and humans reveal that God initiates such encounters in order to develop and define healthy families. Themes found in the God-human interactions parallel previous conclusions in family studies research regarding family rituals. Motivated by insights from the behavioral sciences, this work contributes to the scholarly discussion surrounding families from a theological perspective and also provides practical implications for modern-day families
