    Moral Good, the Beatific Vision, and God’s Kingdom Writings by Germain Grisez and Peter Ryan, S.J.. Edited by Peter J. Weigel

    For close to half a century, the work of Germain Grisez has been highly influential, and his writings continue to receive considerable attention from philosophers and theologians of diverse viewpoints. His co-author for this work is the professor and noted moral theologian Fr. Peter Ryan, S.J., currently the executive director of the Secretariat of Doctrine and Canonical Affairs of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB). These two eminent scholars explore fundamental questions about Christian eschatology, moral theory, the purpose of human life, and the promise of human fulfilment. The authors examine Christian teaching on the final destiny of persons, investigating the meaning of God's kingdom, the hope of the beatific vision, and the centrality of moral goodness and divine grace in one's final end. This work is an ideal source for students, scholars, ministers and lay persons interested in basic questions of Christian theology, the philosophy of religion, ethical theory, and Catholic doctrin

    Mt Hehuan treeline ecotone change

    This dataset details landcover change interpreted from historic aerial photography from the treeline ecotone of Mt. Hehuan, Taiwan, enabling change in the position and area of montane forest to be calculated at the elevational limit of the montane forest of Taiwan. The associated R files can be run to calculate change statistics presented in the paper 'Montane forest expansion at high elevations drives rapid reduction in non-forest area despite no change in mean forest elevation.' published in Journal of Biogeography - DOI: 10.1111/JBI.13951.The dataset is interpreted from four sets of aerial photography (P1-4) collected in 1963(P1), 1980(P2), 2001(P3) and 2016(P4) across a study are measuring 4072 ha from the Mt hehuan area of the Taiwanese Central Mountain Range. A proportional stratified random sampling design was used to assess change in forest distribution at the treeline ecotone. Sample plots were created that measure 15 x 15 m and slope orientation was used as a basis for stratification using 12 categories of slope aspect and incline attributes calculated from a high-resolution TanDEM-X Digital Elevation Model. Strata were based on four cardinal compass directions (± 45° in either direction) and three inclination classes (0-20°, 21-45° and > 46°). The number of samples taken in each stratum was proportional to the area of the study region occupied by the aspect-incline combination and a total of 2,785 sample plots were interpreted, equivalent to 1.54 % of the study area. Each sample is assigned one of four vegetation classes for each year in the change survey. Areas that meet the FAO Global Forest Resources Assessment (2018) criterion of a forest as an area with at least 10 % canopy cover and trees greater than 5 m in height are classified here as forest. Areas with small trees present within the plot that do not meet the thresholds of a forest as set out by the FAO definition were categorised as establishing forest. The scale of the aerial photography (≤0.5 m pixel size) is sufficient to discriminate differences in tree size based on crown size. Areas with partial removal of the forest canopy between time periods are categorised as disturbed and treeless areas are categorised here as non-forest areas. The R files provided carry out the change assessment for the results presented in the paper publised in Journal of Biogeography (DOI: 10.1111/JBI.13951 ). R files should be run from the master script to as this will set up the change analysis to account for the stratification of sample plots and will then subsequently calculate change statistics for the study area as a whole and by each aspect or incline class

    Lewis Morley, Photographer

    No full text
    Photographer, LEWIS MORLEY - 46 min 37seconds PAL Video/DVD Considered one of the most significant voices of 1960's London, Lewis Morley took one of the most singular iconic images of this period - a naked Christine Keeler on an Arne Jacobson chair. At the height of the Profumo Scandal, this image of sex and power has often overshadowed his remarkable sampling of fringe actors, musicians and fringe-dwellers of London's swinging Sixties. These players included David Frost, Joe Orton, Charlotte Rampling, Peter Cook, Dudley Moore, the first published photo of fashion models Twiggy, Jean Shrimpton and the young actor Michael Caine. Brian Epstein, Clint Eastwood, Judi Dench, Lindsay Anderson, Peter O'Toole, Vanessa Redgrave, John Cleese, Francois Truffaut, Salvador Dali, Tom Jones and Barry Humphries - indeed, almost everyone who was 'The Sixties". In 1971, as Swinging London faded and Britain entered a recession, Lewis and his family emigrated to Australia, where he worked extensively for Australian design & fashion magazines. He continued his portrait work including artists Lloyd Rees, Brett Whiteley, controversial figure Juni Morosi, and writer Peter Carey. The video has Morley discuss his sessions with Caine, Twiggy, Shrimpton, and the background to his working life at Peter Cook's Club 'The Establishment', where he was resident photographer. Morley takes us back in time and behind the scenes of Beyond the Fringe and That Was the Week. Importantly we go to the background behind the Keeler session, and see all thirty proof shots, and that final decision. With over three hundred photographs, including all of Morley's classic moments there are also numerous unpublished images cover his entire career. Created to coincide with the retrospective exhibition of Lewis Morley at the National Portrait Gallery, Canberra from March 15 2003; this film acts as a time-machine so that the viewer can go back with the photographer - to a time when Michael Caine hadn't made a film, Twiggy wasn't a model, Carey hadn't won the Booker and Edna Everadge wasn't yet a Dame.
