‘A Strange Change Approaching’: Ontology, Reconciliation And Eschatology In Wuthering Heights
No full textWith a focus on Emily Brontë‘s novel in the context of her poetry, Simon Marsden examines ontological identification, reconciliation and notions of community. Marsden suggests that the paradigm of romance is often silently privileged in readings of Wuthering Heights, and that this has significantly shaped critical analysis of the novel’s engagement with religion - resulting in neglect of Christian theology’s concern with the ontological status of the human person and the nature of human flourishing. Marsden’s chapter, with reference to recent theological accounts of human ontology and semiotics (Catherine Pickstock and John Milbank), examines both the refusal of the stranger and patterns of repetition and difference as ways into understanding representations of social fragmentation and the redemptive returns of the second generation. For Marsden, the novel brings into view discourses of agapeic love (distinct from erotic love or simple affection), and forgiveness and the refusal of vengeance. Further exploring Brontë‘s critique of the hypocritical violation of Christian ethics and the refusal of mercy for others in ‘Why ask to know the date - the clime?' and ‘Shed no tears o’er that tomb’, Marsden also considers how Brontë‘s essay ‘Filial Love’ illuminates her interest in the parent/child bond and the animal/human divide

Dora Marsden
No full textDora MarsdenFeminist, publisher, and author. Marsden trained as a teacher. Her commitment to the suffrage movement led to her founding of The Freewoman in 1911. With its title change to The Egoist in 1914, the review devoted itself more to literature. Under Marsden's editorship, it published A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man in 1914 and 1915, and several episodes from Ulysses in 1919 as well as articles on JJ by Ezra Pound and others. In the 1920s, Marsden became a recluse, devoting herself to writing philosophical works, and in later decades was institutionalized with severe depression. William Brockman</p

No full textHermodice carunculata (Pallas) is an Amphinomid po1ychaete commonly found throughout the Caribbean area (Marsden, 1960). It also occurs in the Gulf of Mexico (Hartman, 1951) and off the coast of southern Florida (Mullin, 1923).

At that time, a young physician, Peter Simon Pallas, became interested in these collections. [...

Protecting the third pole ::transplanting international law /
No full textThis highly topical book considers the important question of how best to protect the environment of the Third Pole - the area comprising the Hindu Kush Himalayas and Tibetan Plateau - using the tool of international law; specifically, international environmental law and the law of international watercourses. Following detailed analysis of weaknesses in current legal protections according to comparative legal theory, Simon Marsden recommends three potential options for implementation by policy and lawmakers. The first option is to transplant existing international law, including conventions from the UN Economic Commission for Europe and the Council of Europe. Secondly, transplantation of a comprehensive international treaty, based upon the Alpine and Carpathian regimes, is suggested. The overwhelmingly European focus of the first two options, and possible contextual constraints to implementation, informs a third option: the development of a new treaty, giving appropriate attention to the Asian context on one hand, and the need for access of information and public participation on the other, to ensure effective implementation and compliance. Taking a comparative, interdisciplinary approach, Protecting the Third Pole will be a key resource for legal and policy scholars. NGO's and practitioners will also benefit from its detailed analysis
