The fundamental theology of George Tyrrell
No full textIn order to study the fundamental theology of Tyrrell contextually the author presents a perspective of theological trends in the nineteenth century. The author monitors the notions of revelation, dogma, faith and church authority as they structure the fundamental theology of Tyrrell.^ The first aspect of Tyrrell\u27s fundamental theology examined is revelation. By means of the contemporary notion of theological models the author traces Tyrrell\u27s movement from the orthodox view of revelation as doctrine to the modernist one of revelation as inner experience. The author then studies Tyrrell\u27s experiential model from the point of view of its complexity, its place for the conceptual, its communication to others and its relationship to the apostolic revelation.^ The second aspect of Tyrrell\u27s fundamental theology considered is dogma. In his orthodox period, 1886-1899, Tyrrell viewed dogmas as the spoken or written equivalent of that mental language in which Christ and his church (divinely assisted) have embodied the truths of revelation. In his liberal period, 1900-1907, dogmas were not only more clearly seen but more fully as real development required. To save dogmas from their conflict with criticism Tyrrell reinterpreted them. In his final position, 1907-1909, Tyrrell emphasized that dogmas were simply protective and reasserted revelation.^ The third aspect of Tyrrell\u27s fundamental theology studied is faith. Tyrrell rearranged priorities in the act of faith. Against the neo-scholastic orthodoxy of his time he insisted that the appeal of faith to the intellect was secondary and conditional, not primary and causal. The wish to believe is the effectual cause of faith; it intimates that the truths proposed for belief have a place in the life of the intended believer.^ The fourth aspect of Tyrrell\u27s fundamental theology analyzed is church authority. Tyrrell framed his ecclesiology in light of the core concept of the collective mind of the church. The nature of church authority in Tyrrell\u27s thought is spiritual rather than juridical. His liberal position claimed a wide scope for the faithful and put a limit on papal authority; it assumed a democratic as opposed to a monarchic conception of church authority.^ The author ends the study with an evaluation of Tyrrell\u27s thought and that of leading modernists in fundamental theology.

'George Tyrrell and Vatican II'
No full textThe chapter explores the resonances between the work and vision of the modernist theologian George Tyrrell and the 'modernising' Second Vatican Council. While there are clearly parallels and affinities, the author is careful of too close an identity, partly because of aspects of Tyrrell's temperament which would have left him unsympathetic to the Council. Nevertheless there are sufficient analogies to enable a comparative study of the respective ecclesiologies

K-feldspar sand-grain provenance in the Triassic, west of Shetland : distinguishing first-cycle and recycled sediment sources?
No full textSandstone provenance studies can help constrain palaeogeographic reconstructions and ancient drainage system scales and pathways. However, these insights can be obscured by difficulties in geochemically distinguishing or adequately characterising potential sourcelands, or by failure to identify sedimentary recycling. Triassic basins west of Shetland accumulated ~2.5 km of sand-rich sediment. The Middle-Upper Triassic Foula Formation represents fluvial, aeolian and sabkha facies deposited in the northern interior of the Pangean supercontinent. Published U-Pb zircon geochronology and heavy mineral analysis suggest that these sandstones were derived from East Greenland. They contain significant fresh K-feldspar which is likely to be first-cycle and derived directly from its source. Pb isotopic analyses of individual K-feldspar sand-grains show a single, unradiogenic Pb population, consistent with the provenance indicated by U-Pb zircon geochronology. Archaean and Palaeo-Mesoproterozoic rocks – the Nagssugtoqidian Mobile Belt, the Lewisian Complex or equivalents - are the likely source, with terranes south of the Moine Thrust (Grampian, Caledonian and Variscan) ruled out by both the Pb and U-Pb data. However, it is not possible to distinguish between rift flank sources to the east and west, as both areas have similar crustal affinity and/or share the same tectonic history. It is possible that the sediment was derived from the West Shetland Platform and not from Greenland. The comparison of provenance signals from robust and less stable mineral phases provides a means of recognising sedimentary recycling. Robust zircon populations and less stable feldspar in Foula Formation sandstones concur in indicating the same source, suggesting that they are likely to be first-cycle. The Triassic sand supply can be contrasted with that in Upper Carboniferous (Namurian) basins in the north of England where a significant zircon population has no corresponding K-feldspar component. This zircon population is likely to have been recycled from Lower Palaeozoic greywackes from the Southern Uplands Belt or its along strike extension.Science Foundation Irelan
Sand supply, sources and evolution of the mid-Carboniferous Clare Basin, western Ireland: insights from multi-proxy provenance approaches
No full textSedimentary provenance analysis aims to improve the understanding of all factors associated with sediment production, transport and deposition. This has implications for a wide range of geosciences, helping towards reconstructing palaeogeography, palaeodrainage, and palaeoenvironment. However, multiple factors hinder optimum interpretation of provenance signals in sediments and sedimentary rocks. Some of these factors are investigated in this study, including the impacts of sedimentary recycling and sediment storage in the hinterland, prior to final deposition. This project applies a multi-proxy provenance approach to ancient sandstones from the mid-Carboniferous Clare Basin, western Ireland, to answer key provenance analysis questions and also to better constrain sedimentary routing and sources, basin infill, and palaeogeographic evolution. A large provenance dataset is presented here, comprising zircon U-Pb geochronology data from 13 samples (1624 grains), apatite U-Pb geochronology and trace element results from 10 samples (587 grains), heavy mineral analysis of 31 samples and standard petrographic analysis of 57 samples.
The use of zircon and apatite U-Pb geochronology, heavy minerals analysis, apatite trace elements, and petrographic analysis is proven a powerful combination in the identification of sedimentary recycling in mineralogically mature sandstones. The results enable the identification of multiple source terranes supplying the sandstones of the Clare Basin. A major first cycle southern peri-Gondwanan associated input is identified. Additionally, polycyclic zircon (of Laurentian and Caledonian affinity) and apatite (Caledonian affinity) are established as ultimately being derived from the north but recycled through Old Red Sandstone sedimentary basins to the south (e.g. Dingle and Munster basins). Sedimentary recycling is therefore clearly favoured over intensive first cycle chemical weathering, to explain the mineralogical maturity of sandstones in the Clare Basin. The multi-proxy provenance approach identifies sedimentary sourcing in the Clare Basin as being continuously from the WSW-SSW throughout the entire sampled stratigraphy. Comparing provenance signals from the entire basin, both temporally and spatially, using detrital geochronology and heavy mineral indices, enables a better understanding of hinterland and shelf configuration evolution. Furthermore, southern hinterland uplift, linked with the Variscan Orogeny, is envisaged to impact supply during the later infill of the Clare Basin.
In addition, heavy mineral indices in Tullig Cyclothem deltaic sandstones indicate a link between detrital mineralogy, sedimentary facies and sediment pre-depositional history. Relatively higher apatite-tourmaline index values are seen in channelised sandstones compared to sandstones associated with mouth bar and interdistributary bay facies. The apatite-tourmaline index highlights variations in the extent of chemical weathering experienced by the sediment prior to deposition. Such findings likely indicate that chemical weathering occurring prior to deposition is dependent on the sediment residence time in the hinterland and this signal appears to carry through to ultimate deposition. This highlights the potential of this specific index for use in reconstructing palaeoweathering and palaeoclimate at a deep-geological time scale.
This project advances the utility of provenance analysis and highlights the need for a multi-proxy provenance approach to fully understand sedimentary routing. For the first time, the Clare Basin infill has been fully constrained through a multi-proxy provenance approach. Learnings from this case study from a well-known Irish sedimentary basin can be applied to other sedimentary successions, with a specific applicability to quartz-rich sedimentary rocks

James Tyrrell, John Locke, and Patriarcha non Monarcha (1681)
No full textIn June 1681, Richard Janeway published Patriarcha non Monarcha, a pseudonymous attack on the works of Sir Robert Filmer, the author of Patriarcha: or The Natural Power of Kings. The author of Patriarcha non Monarcha was James Tyrrell (1642–1719), a close friend and correspondent of John Locke (1632–1704), whose own Two Treatises of Government (1690) would bear a marked resemblance to Patriarcha non Monarcha. In the decades since the appearance of Peter Laslett’s critical edition (1960) of Locke’s Two Treatises, these resemblances have formed the subject of an unusual debate about the nature of Tyrrell’s and Locke’s intellectual exchanges during the period when both were writing confutations of Filmer. In the work of Richard Tuck and David Wootton, Patriarcha non Monarcha is shown to possess a remarkable significance in the textual history of the Two Treatises. The article revisits this debate in the light of significant new evidence. In particular, the article examines a series of provocative claims about the arrangement of printed gatherings — or “collation” — of Patriarcha non Monarcha itself
Provenance of Triassic sandstones in NW European Margin Basins - reconstructing palaeogeography using a multi-proxy approach
No full textProvenance studies endeavour to unravel the history of a sediment, from investigating potential source rocks, to assessing the processes which may have affected sediment during weathering, transport, burial and diagenesis, to evaluating sediment supply over time. The range of information acquired from provenance studies aid reconstruction of source to sink models. These models can help better predict reservoir sandstone distribution and quality in the sub-surface and also help reconstruct palaeogeography. Lower-Middle Triassic sandstones in NW European margin basins form several proven hydrocarbon reservoirs; Wytch Farm oil field in the Wessex Basin, Morecambe gas field in the East Irish Sea Basin, various oil and gas fields in the North Sea, and the Corrib gas field, in the Slyne Basin offshore west of Ireland. As a result, these basins have been extensively studied such that Triassic palaeogeography on and offshore Britain is reasonably well constrained. However, peripheral basins such as the Slyne Basin, offshore western Ireland and the various basins across Northern Ireland are not as well understood. Previous provenance analysis of the Triassic sandstones in the Slyne Basin revealed supply from the north of the basin. These results suggest that basins offshore western Ireland were supplied with sediment from a large-scale fluvial system separate to the Budleighensis river system which flowed north from the Variscan Uplands delivering detritus to the basins on and offshore Britain. The nature and position of the divide between these two Triassic sediment supply systems is unknown. Provenance analysis of the basins across Northern Ireland may offer further insight into Triassic palaeodrainage in NW European margin basins and may help constrain the location of a potential drainage divide. This study applies a multi-proxy approach, utilising standard petrographic analysis, Pb-isotopic analysis of K-feldspar, U-Pb zircon and apatite geochronology, and trace element geochemistry, to investigate the provenance of the Lower-Middle Triassic sandstones in the Slyne Basin and basins across Northern Ireland. Detailed optical petrography provides an insight into the nature of the sandstones in these basins, in particular the diagenetic processes which may have affected the sediment during deposition and burial. This information provides an understanding of the sedimentary environment where these sandstones were deposited and also provides a foundation for the provenance information gathered by the other more sophisticated techniques. Provenance analysis of Lower-Middle Triassic sandstones in the Slyne Basin, offshore western Ireland, utilising U-Pb apatite and zircon geochronology and Pb-isotopic analysis of K-feldspar, revealed mixed Archaean-Proterozoic sources, as well as a minor Caledonian source for the Triassic sandstones in the Slyne Basin. U-Pb zircon and apatite geochronology also revealed a Permo-Triassic source which was not identified by the Pb-isotopic analysis. These results imply palaeodrainage from sources in NW Scotland and Greenland, with minor input from the Irish Massif, confirming that a southerly flowing fluvial system existed offshore Ireland. Although a definitive source is difficult to identify for the Permo-Triassic material, there is evidence that potential sources existed to the north, and detritus may have been supplied to the Slyne Basin through a series of linked basins. The discrepancy between the results from each method emphasises the need for a multi-proxy approach to provenance studies. U-Pb apatite geochronology, apatite trace element geochemistry and Pb-isotopic K-feldspar analysis of Triassic sandstones in basins across Northern Ireland also revealed mixed Archaean-Proterozoic sources with significant input from Variscan sources also detected. Furthermore, the provenance signal showed intermittent switching between these two source areas, to the north and south respectively, over time. These results imply that the basins across Northern Ireland were supplied with sediment by two fluvial systems flowing north and south respectively, with the southerly system probably being an extension of the Budleighensis river system. This infers that the basins across Northern Ireland may have been temporarily connected to the basins on and offshore Britain during the Triassic. In this way provenance results from the Slyne Basin and basins across Northern Ireland provide fresh insight into Triassic palaeodrainage and also help reconstruct and constrain palaeogeography for NW Europe during the Middle-Upper Triassic, while highlighting the importance of a multi-proxy provenance approach which utilises signals from sand grains with contrasting 1) abundance in source areas; and 2) stability in the sedimentary environment
