Nanoscale dispensing of single ultrasmall droplets
No full textNanoscale dispensing (NADIS) is a novel technique to deposit material at micrometric and submicrometric dimensions. It has great flexibility in feature shape and choice of deposited material. Due to its expected low cost and short turn-around time, it has the potential to be an interesting tool complementary to standard lithographic processes. Furthermore, NADIS has a great potential in the creation of high-density microarrays used in proteomics or genomics. The key feature of NADIS is the deposition of a liquid through an aperture created in a scanning force microscopy probe tip. The liquid is loaded into the hollow back of the pyramidal probe tip. Upon contact, liquid is transferred from the tip to the substrate surface. The transfer of liquid occurs without any external pressure. The control of the NADIS probe displacement is achieved using a standard atomic force microscope. Two different approaches to fabricate tips with apertures were investigated. The first approach relies on opening the tip during the microfabrication of the probe, whereas the second approach implies a modification of commercially available probes by focused ion beam milling. Both kinds of probes have shown their ability to perform successfully the dispensing of droplets. Nanoscale dispensing has been demonstrated for deposition of ultrasmall single droplets with volumes down toattoliters in a controlled way and with high lateral accuracy. The smallest droplet spacing that has been achieved was less than 500 nm. The size of the droplets and the possible droplet density are largely dependent on the aperture diameter and on the surface wettability. Nanoparticles and fluorescent molecules were also dispensed. In such cases, the liquid is used as a transport medium for the substances to be deposited. By moving the NADIS probe during contact on the substrate, it was possible to write features such as lines with sizes that can be as small as 400 nm. Some theoretical aspects are discussed, in particularly the capillary forces associated with axisymmetric liquid menisci. Experimentally measured capillary forces during the dispensing are compared with theoretically determined values

Sudzuki transcendentālfilozofijas interpretācijā” ir veltīts tam, lai pētītu 20.gadsimta japāņu domātāja Daisecu Teitaro Sudzuki (Daisetz Teitaro Suzuki) darbos pausto Meistara Ekharta – 13.gadsmta vācu filozofa, teologa un mistiķa – domas salīdzinājumu ar budisma mācību. D. T. Sudzuki ir domātājs, kurš izvirza pieņēmumu, ka Meistars Ekharts savos darbos pauž uzskatus, kas ir ļoti tuvi vai pat vienādi ar budisma filozofiju, kaut arī 13.gadsimtā Eiropā budisms nebija zināms.Master’s Thesis “Meister Eckhart's teaching in the interpretation of D. T. Suzuki's transcendental philosophy” is dedicated to research Japanesse scholar of 20th Century Daisetz Teitaro Suzuki’s works where author compares Buddhism with Meister Echart’s – German philosopher, theologian and mystic of 13th Century – teaching. Suzuki was a scholar who assumed that Meister Echart expresses very close relation with Buddhism although Buddhism was not widespread in Europe in 13th Century
A HOMILY OF MEISTER ECKHART PREACHED IN THE ACADEMY OF PARIS ON THE FEAST DAY OF SAINT AUGUSTINE («VAS AURI SOLIDUM»)
No full textThis article is devoted to the study of a little known homily of Meister Eckhart («Vas auri solidum») which he preached on Saint Augustine’s feast day in Paris. Before including the translation of this discourse, the author discusses the specific nature of the so-called academic homily. Preaching a homily was regarded as one of the obligations of a university professor of the time and this task was regulated according to strict guidelines and requirements. Such a homily possessed a specific structure. The author explains its main requirement. This type of homily was meant to explain and interpret a chosen text taken from Holy Scripture. Meister Eckhart actually planned to compose an extended three-part work combining elements of philosophy and theology which was to be known as his Opus tripartitum. One of its parts was to be a collection of model homilies (Opus sermonus). He began this work but did not finish it. Although we today possess only a few sketches and outlines of the Latin homilies of Meister Eckhart, which themselves are characterised by their lack of structure, they provide an excellent understanding of the mind of their author as well as rare insight into the place of Saint Augustine as a master of scholastic thought. In addition, this homily provides the only indication of the place of birth of the renowned mediaeval author. After an in-depth study of the text of the homily, the author concludes that Meister Eckhart borrowed his outline and system of classification from the School of Chartres and especially from Clarembald of Arras, an interpreter of Boethius. Using these sources, Eckhart formulated his idea of the two ways of knowing God: the way of ethics (Augustine) and the way of metaphysics (Aristotle, Dionysius the Areopagite and Boethius
The Godhead as a theological foundation of interreligious dialogue; drawn from the writings of Meister Eckhart and Raimundo Panikkar
No full textInterreligious dialogue has emerged in the last twenty-five years as a unique response to the global situation. The dissertation focuses on the spiritual dimensions of dialogue, and proposes an interreligious foundation based on Meister Eckhart\u27s desert of the Godhead and on Raimundo Panikkar\u27s speculative work in cross-cultural spiritual hermeneutics. Part One of the dissertation deals with the historical background of dialogue, and investigates the early field of comparative religion, and the theocentric and Christocentric approaches. Further the spirituality of dialogue is explored with reference to the writings of Teilhard de Chardin, Ewert H. Cousins, Leonard Swidler, and others; and the author presents and critiques the contributions of Wilfred Cantwell Smith and Seyyed Hossein Nasr. Next, a detailed study of Raimundo Panikkar\u27s speculative cosmotheandrism is considered in light of the overall dialogic project. In this study, the author attempts to uncover both the historical developments in scholarship which have contributed to the current dialogic atmosphere and the underlying assumptions, questions, and concerns of the interreligious theologian. In order to explore these issues, the author considers the main methodological, epistemological, and hermeneutical approaches currently being discussed in interreligious scholarship. In Part Two, these various approaches to dialogue are seen in light of the mystical theology of Meister Eckhart. Here the dissertation looks toward a theological foundation of dialogue in Meister Eckhart\u27s theme of the God beyond God. Particular attention is given to his notion of the desert of the Godhead, the dynamism of reality, and the oneness beyond distinction as important contributions to interreligious scholarship. The author investigates the ramifications of Eckhart\u27s mysticism to interreligious dialogue and how his doctrine of God can be fruitfully applied to the interreligious question. Finally, the author presents a speculative foundation for dialogue based on a multidimensional notion of Ultimate Reality

Questions on the Attributes (of God): Four Rediscovered Parisian Questions of Meister Eckhart
No full textAmongst his surviving works, Meister Eckhart's Quaestiones Parisienses are regarded as 'one of the most famous sets of texts that medieval thinking has produced'. Until recently, only five of such Quaestiones were known: three that were dated to Eckhart's first magisterium in Paris in 1302/3, the other two from his second in 1311/12. Two years ago, the author of this essay (re-)discovered four more Quaestiones Parisienses which had previously been excluded as dubious or spurious texts and therefore did not enter the critical edition of Eckhart's Latin works in the standard Kohlhammer edition. This essay reports the story of their first discovery by Martin Grabmann, traces the history and reasons for their being disputed, reinvestigates the problem of authenticity, and advances arguments that suggest that they are genuinely authored by Meister Eckhart and date from his second stay in Paris.</p
Meister Eckhart Versus Nicolas of Cusa: Anti-Cusanian Argumentation in «De Ignota Litteratura» by John Wenck
No full textIn his polemical work «De ignota litteratura», which was composed against «De docta ignorantia», John Wenck of Herrenberg, a professor of theology at the university of Heidelberg, cites three excerpts from three German works of Meister Eckhart: «Liber benedictus» German sermons 2 and 6 (numeration according to the critical edition of J. Quint). Comparing the cited passages from these Eckhart's texts used in the treatise by John Wenck with a Latin version of the German sermon «Intravit Iesus in quoddam castellum» in the Ms. Koblenz, Landeshauptarchiv, Abt. 701, Nr. 149, ff. 10v-13v, the author of this paper comes to conclusion that the main object of the critics in «De ignota litteratura» was not only Cusanus and his theories of docta ignorantia and coincidentia oppositorum, but also an attempt to rehabilitate some teachings of Meister Eckhart in the Latin translations of his German sermons made during the Late Middle Ages. It seems to be very possible that a collection of Latin translations of the vernacular sermons and other works by Meister Eckhart was made and circulated among mystical circles on the Upper and Middle Rhine in 14th and 15th centuries.
There is no doubt that John Wenck touched in his polemical treatise the core issue in the late mediaeval debates on the Eckhart heritage and its compatibility to the dogmatically uncontroversial Christian theology and philosophy. His main point is obvious: Had Cusanus not read the German works by Meister Eckhart, he would not have constructed the bold and unconventional ideas of docta ignorantia and coincidentia oppositorum at all, and without intoxication by Eckhart's heterodoxy he would not make an attempt to write a treatise like «De docta ignorantia».
To conclude, the whole point of John Wenck's polemics with Nicolas of Cusa lies ultimately in dealing with formulations and ideas from the German texts of Meister Eckhart. Cusanus, who surely knew German Eckhartian and pseudo-Eckhartian tradition, would not surprisingly like remember and analyse them in «De docta ignorantia» and «Apologia doctae ignorantiae». Unfortunately, Wenck doesn't hesitate not to forget these controversial texts condemned in the bulla «In agro dominico» (promulgated by Pope John XXII in March 27, 1329) and by the theologians at the university of Heidelberg in 1430. In his critics on Nicolas of Cusa he can find no better parallel to the doctrines of docta ignorantia and coincidentia oppositorum of Cusanus than the teachings on the detachment, the birth of God in the intimate depths of the human soul, and the unity of the soul with Godhead advocated by the German Dominican friar Meister Eckhart
