'A local habitation and a name A Kristevan reading of human growth in religion, with a reference to John and Charles Wesley'
No full textThis study is concerned with the concept of human growth and change: it juxtaposes processes of growth and change in psychoanalytic therapy and those in a religious context. In both situations the relationship between growth and development and the idea of becoming 'good' is considered. Kleinian, Post-Kleinian and particularly Kristevan theory is used to elucidate facilitators of change in psychoanalytic therapy and in the context of Christian faith. The emphases in the theory used here differ from those of more traditional developmental theorists in the study of religion, which rely heavily on ego-psychology and self-psychology, and focus on the autonomous ego and the degree of maturity of forms of religion. By contrast, the emphases here are on the split self, on unconscious drives, phantasies and affects, and on the non-cognitive apprehension of truth. Through an examination of the lives of John and Charles Wesley, the thesis examines the possibility of growth occurring in the context of so-called 'immature’ forms of religion, the means by which this might occur, and the extent to which change is governed by an individual's mental structure and psychological defences. The Kristevan reading allows a less cognitive, 'ego-driven' study of the growth to 'goodness' than does that of the developmental theorists. It thus questions the validity of traditional classifications of forms of religion. It elicits differences between the historical subjects, which demonstrate the importance of personality factors in facilitating or hindering growth. Finally, it enables an exploration of Charles Wesley’s hymns which reveals evidence of erotic and imaginary elements, and the possibility of triadic openness in what some would see as an 'immature' form of belief. This examination also questions Kristeva's own assertion that religious symbolism cannot adequately 'sublimate' the 'abject'

John Wesley Hunt: Pioneer Merchant, Manufacturer and Financier
No full textWhen John Wesley Hunt came to Kentucky in 1794, his plan was to open a general store in Lexington. A canny judge of business opportunity, he soon expanded his activities and became one of the responsible figures of Kentucky banking and finance. In another kind of venture, he imported fine stallions from the East, significantly improving the bloodlines of thoroughbreds and trotters in the Bluegrass.
John Wesley Hunt tells the story of Hunt’s business exploits against the background of life in frontier Lexington. James A. Ramage reveals how his innovative solutions to the financial problems of the frontier gave rise to the prosperity and culture of Lexington in the nineteenth century

Letter from Dillon Wesley Throckmorton, Minister, Trinity Methodist Church, to Caleb Foote, 1942
No full textLetter from Dillon Wesley Throckmorton to Caleb Foote: "1. The Japanese families here are anxious to be evacuated and resettled together, to that end we have place_ a plea with the W.C.C.A. That means I have no families for you to suggest to mid-west FOR folk. 2. The list will be sent you soon. Miss Round promised me Tuesday night she would get it out to you right away. Some time she is a bit slow doing things. I have written a letter announcing the next meeting for her. 3. The Methodist Aid committee for the Japanese Evacuation which we formed here last week has already done several small things to stone for the sins of our time, with the Japanese people. We have some real heart breaks here. I think I have answered the three requests. Funds seem to be a great difficulty with us. Some send direct to the N.Y. office, etc., others feel that we must do something here for a few needy cases, so we have been unable to send any your way yet. I know when they get your news sheet they will want to help however so getting the list to you right away is important. Success and service to you, Dillon."Personal correspondence, organizational records, government documents, publications, and other papers created or collected by Joseph R.
