    Gomalia Moore, 1879 This monotypic genus was introduced by Moore (1879) for albofasciata Moore, which is now considered the south Asian subspecies of G. e l m a. The genus is similar to Spialia in structure, differing in the irregular hind wing termen, as well as the different appearance.Published as part of Cock, Matthew J.

    Review of Buddhism & Political Theory by Matthew J. Moore

    No full text
    Buddhism & Political Theory, by Matthew J. Moore, proposes to extract a political theory from the Pali language texts of the Buddhist religious tradition that is palatable to Western academic sensibilities so that it might be ushered into the company of contemporary political and ethical philosophy. Let me introduce you, the book in essence says to the world of Western philosophy, to a long overlooked, unusual, and interesting perspective on political and ethical theory that you really ought to include in your conversations

    Citation expectations: are they realized? Study of the Matthew index for Russian papers published abroad

    No full text
    We consider the "Matthew effect" in the citation process which leads to reallocation (or misallocation) of the citations received by scientific papers within the same journals. The case when such reallocation correlates with a country where an author works is investigated. Russian papers in chemistry and physics published abroad were examined. We found that in both disciplines in about 60% of journals Russian papers are cited less than average ones. However, if we consider each discipline as a whole, citedness of a Russian paper in physics will be on the average level, while chemistry publications receive about 16% citations less than one may expect from the citedness of the journals where they appear. Moreover, Russian chemistry papers mostly become undercited in the leading journals of the field. Characteristics of a "Matthew index" indicator and its significance for scientometric studies are also discussed

    'Woe to you, hypocrites!' : law and leaders in The Gospel of Matthew

    No full text
    This thesis seeks to move beyond the impasse in Matthean scholarship that posits the reason for conflict in Matthew 23 with the authorial community. A framework is developed that allows the possibility that the gospel was received and understood by a widespread, general audience that itself was not necessarily embroiled in conflict. Multiple complementary methods are used to analyze how an ancient audience might expect conflict and work through its development in the narrative. Analysis of comparative biographical literature and of Old Testament references and allusions shows that readers could expect in literature the type and intensity of conflict exhibited in Matthew 23. The gospel's internal narrative development provides unity to the conflict episodes in Matthew 9-23. It also offers rationale for the escalation of conflict for which Matthew 23 is the summary. Chapter One: The Shape of the Discussion surveys representative works including redaction, social scientific, socio-historical, narrative and genre critics, to understand the options for studying conflict in Matthew. Reader-response oriented genre criticism provides language for framing reader expectations. Chapter Two: Expecting Conflict examines expectations that can be associated with Matthew's use of the Old Testament and by comparison with ancient biographies. Chapter Three: The Conflict Builds works systematically through each of the points of contact between Jesus and the leaders of Israel in chapters 9-22 organized by three topics: legal interpretation, the identity and authority of Jesus, and the character of the leaders. Chapter Four: Woe to You takes up the task of examining Matthew 23. The analysis of Matthew 23 identifies three components in the summary of conflict: Jesus presented as the model for his audience, Jesus' final denunciation of the leaders, and the presentation of Jesus as God’s representative. The multi-methodological approach used in this study of Matthew 23 suggests a narrative that invites the reader to rethink how one knows and understands God. The study thereby provides an alternative to the assumption that conflict reflects the immediate experience of a narrowly conceived authorial community

    Should i publish in an open access journal?

    An “author pays” publishing model is the only fair way to make biomedical research findings accessible to all, say Matthew Kurien and David S Sanders, but James J Ashton and R Mark Beattie worry that it can lead to bias in the evidence base towards commercially driven results

    Artful living and the eradication of worry in Søren Kierkegaard's interpretation of Matthew 6:24-34

    No full text
    Danish thinker Søren Kierkegaard published fourteen discourses, across four collections, on Matthew 6:24-34. The repeated readings of the biblical text, whose themes include the choice between God and mammon, worry, what it means to consider the birds and lilies, and how to seek first the kingdom of God, converge with Kierkegaard’s interest in anxiety, despair, worry, subjectivity, indirect communication, choice, the moment, and life before God. Accordingly, the discourses make connections with his larger works, elucidate frequently explored Kierkegaardian themes in recent scholarship, and contribute to his critique of nineteenth-century Copenhagen. Additionally, the collections present an interpretation of each verse and phrase of Matthew’s text and, held up against modern Matthew scholarship, they correlate with and contribute to Sermon on the Mount and New Testament studies. Kierkegaard’s reading of Matthew also holds implications for the practice of biblical interpretation as it promotes the importance of awareness of sin, interestedness, and appropriation as central to proper reading. His emphasis on Christ as the primary exemplar of Matthew’s text adds an additional Christological element to his hermeneutic. Furthermore, the discourses serve as spiritual treatises which provide the reader with theological terminology to help confront the problem of worry and suffering. In light of a human being’s distinctiveness as imago Dei, Kierkegaard elucidates ways an individual may respond artfully to the ongoing possibility of worry, a possibility which the discourses connect with Christian anthropology and external labels associated with possessions and status. The Matthew 6 discourses intimate Kierkegaard’s sympathy with classic Christian spirituality and, in combination with the cultural-ecclesiastical critique, the creative exegesis, and the in-depth analysis of the cause of and cure for worry, his work emerges as an excellent example of spiritual theology

    Ampittia Moore 1881

    Ampittia Moore, 1881 (in Moore 1880 –1882) This genus is found in Africa, where it is represented by three species: A. parvus Aurivillius, A. capenas (Hewitson) and A. kilombero Larsen & Congdon, and Asia, where there are at least five species (Evans 1949). The type species is A. maro (Fabricius), a synonym of A. dioscoroides (Fabricius), which is an Indian species. The biology of the type species has long been known. Thus, Davidson et al. (1897) describe and illustrate the early stages of A. dioscoroides (as A. maro) from around Bombay (Mumbai), where it feeds on rice and grasses, and Bell (1925) gives a very detailed description of the full life history. Bell (1925) states that the ovum is 0.9 x 0.6mm wide x high, “sculptured with 24 meridional ridges from base up to more than three-quarters the height”. Davidson et al. (1897) record that on the pupa “between the eyes in front of the head are two conical excrescences which overhang the eyes somewhat, the two together having the appearance of a small crescent, the horns of which point forwards”. They also observe that the caterpillar “lives absolutely in the open when full-grown. Pupa forms on the stems of grass, or rice, with its head downwards.” Bascombe et al. (1999) illustrate the life history from Hong-Kong.Published as part of Cock, Matthew J.
