The sense of a beginning : Bakhtinian dialogic criticism on 'the gospel' in Mark.
Get PDFContemporary literary approaches have caused paradigm shifts in Biblical Studies in the last two decades as it appears in a great deal of Markan studies using narrative, reader-response, deconstructive, feminist, and new historicist approaches. However, literary studies on the Gospel of Mark have not taken into account theoretical questions underlying those approaches. As a result biblical critics are driven by new trends without ever having a chance to examine the critical baggage of the approaches. Consequently, there is a gap of communication between the old and the new one. Therefore this thesis is an attempt to meet the need of enhancing the quality of critical endeavour in biblical studies. In the light of most recent competing critical theories of literature, the first contribution of this thesis is the methodological finding that Bakhtinian dialogic criticism contains the most profound philosophical and practical foundations for solving some crucial theoretical problems in contemporary literary theories. It is a critique to a Saussurian linguistic system of language which becomes the very foundation of modern and postmodern literary criticism. Bakhtinian literary theory shifts the foundation of literary criticism on linguistic signs into the creative activity of the socio-cultural production of human communication. The shift into socio-cultural reality of language communication makes the notion of 'genre' very important to unlock the problem of text and context in literary studies. Since the Gospel of Mark has fascinated most literary critics in Biblical Studies, the problem of 'genre' of this gospel is chosen as the focus of this study. Secondly, as no agreement is reached as to what 'genre' the Gospel of Mark belongs, this thesis makes its contribution to the discussion by locating the problem of 'genre' of Mark in the context of genre theories and argues that the Bakhtinian suggestion to find genre in the socio-cultural sphere by analysing artistic intercourse between narrative agents in Mark has freed the competing analysis from the unresolved problem between the kerygmatic (content oriented) approach and the analogical (form oriented) approach. To achieve finding 'genre' in the socio-cultural sphere, this thesis focuses on Bakhtinian analysis of the process of artistic intercourse between narrative agents. The narrative communicative interrelationships between narrative agents is constructed in this thesis as a 'stereophonic' Bakhtinian model of dialogic communication. This model is an original contribution of this thesis for revising the traditional two dimensional model of narrative communication. Based on this dialogical model of communication, a special role is given to the Bakhtinian 'author-creator' in the realization process of genre through the interaction of polyphonic voices. Through the interaction of voices of the author-artist and the hero we are led to discover a relatively stable type of portraying and controlling reality in Mark, known as the genre of Roman 'satire'. The closest literary affinity is Satyrica by Petronius. This narrative strategy of 'satire' in Mark has its root in the prophetic discourse of the Old Testament which is saturating the speech of the narrator, John the Immerser, the centurion, the people, and even Jesus. Finally, the whole search for Markan 'genre' culminates in the analysis of the realization of genre through the analysis of Bakhtinian chronotope. The reality of the genre of Mark is its social reality that is in its role as dpxrj/ 'beginning'. As the Gospel of Mark proclaims itself as 'a beginning', it defines its claim of socio-cultural 'authority' in early Christianity. It is this 'sense of beginning' which enables the narrating and the narrated world of Mark to interact dialogically
Tierney Sutton Band, jazz (Estados Unidos)
No full textDe las ocho ocasiones en las que ha sido nominada a los Grammy, Tierney Sutton ha recibido siete nominaciones consecutivas a Mejor Álbum Vocal de Jazz, una por cada proyecto que ha publicado en la última década. En 2013 sacó a la luz ‘After Blue’, una reimaginación del legado de Joni Mitchell inspirada en el ‘jazz’. El álbum recibió grandes elogios y supuso la irrupción de Sutton como líder, sin su banda de siempre. Este trabajo cuenta con la participación de Al Jarreau, Hubert Laws, Peter Erskine, Larry Goldings, Mark Summer, Kevin Axt, Serge Merlaud y The Turtle Island String Quartet.
Con una trayectoria de grabaciones y giras que abarca más de veinte años y nueve álbumes, The Tierney Sutton Band —TSB— ha recorrido un camino poco común. Integrada por Sutton y los virtuosos instrumentistas Kevin Axt, Ray Brinker, Trey Henry y Christian Jacob, la agrupación funciona como una verdadera unidad colaborativa (y legalmente constituida), cuyos integrantes toman todas las decisiones musicales y empresariales como socios. En 2011, la TSB recibió una nominación al Grammy por sus arreglos en colaboración, el único reconocimiento que se ha otorgado en tal calidad.
Su discografía es temática y abundante, y los proyectos anteriores de la TSB han abordado la cultura estadounidense (‘American Road’, 2011), el materialismo (‘Desire’, 2009), la búsqueda de la felicidad (‘On the other Side’, 2007), así como los legados musicales de Bill Evans (‘Blue in Green’, 2001) y Frank Sinatra (‘Dancing in the Dark’, 2003). En esta misma línea, TSB lanzó una nueva grabación en otoño de 2016 titulada ‘The Sting Variations’. Además, Christian Jacob y TSB compusieron la música original de la película de Clint Eastwood ‘Sully’, protagonizada por Tom Hanks y Laura Linney, que se estrenó el 9 de septiembre de 2016.
En los últimos años, Tierney se presentó en el Hollywood Bowl, el Carnegie Hall, el Kennedy Center y el Jazz At Lincoln Center. También es posible escucharla en bandas sonoras de cine y televisión como la de la película nominada al Oscar ‘The Cooler’, así como en anuncios de televisión de BMW, Green Giant, Yoplait y Coca Cola.
Cuando no está de gira, Tierney Sutton trabaja como productora y educadora vocal altamente cotizada. Ha enseñado durante más de una década en la Escuela de Música Thornton de la Universidad del Sur de California (USC) y durante cinco años ha sido directora del departamento vocal de Los Angeles College of Music en Pasadena, California, donde creó un nuevo plan de estudios para vocalistas de todos los géneros. Tierney ha enseñado y se ha convertido en la mentora de algunas de las mejores cantantes de la nueva generación, entre ellas Gretchen Parlato y Sara Gazarek.
En su gira por Colombia, Tierney Sutton Band estará conformado por el pianista Christian Jacob, el bajista Kevin Axt y el baterista Ray Brinker
Overview, aims and scope
No full textThis chapter presents an overview of the volume, introducing the background and setting out the aims and scope of the workshop and this book. Ammonia emissions primarily originate from agricultural sources and present a substantial contribution to a wide range of environmental problems (see as well Sutton et al., Atmospheric ammonia – detecting emission changes and environmental impacts – results of an expert workshop under the convention on long-range transboundary air pollution. Springer, Heidelberg, 2009; Managing the European nitrogen problem: a proposed strategy for integration of European research on the multiple effects of reactive nitrogen. Centre for Ecology & Hydrology, Edinburgh, 2009; The European nitrogen assessment. Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, 2011; Our nutrient world: the challenge to produce more food and energy with less pollution. Global overview of nutrient management. Centre for Ecology & Hydrology, Edinburgh, 2013; Philos Trans R Soc London, Ser B 368(1621):20130166, 2013), ranging from the deposition of acidifying substances and excess nutrients on soils, the formation of secondary inorganic aerosols, climate change and nutrient loads for freshwater and coastal ecosystems (Galloway et al., Bioscience 53:341–356, 2003). Yet, ammonia emissions have to date not been subject to stringent emission control policies, in contrast to sulphur dioxide or nitrogen oxides. As a consequence, ammonia emissions and the agricultural activities they originate from are discussed in detail, with the aim to identify the most promising emission sources and policy options to reduce their harmful environmental effects

Democracy Sausage with Mark Kenny: Truth is trouble with Malcolm Knox
No full textOn this Democracy Sausage Extra, award-winning journalist and author Malcolm Knox joins Mark Kenny to discuss the saga of Israel Folau - former star rugby union player sacked for sharing anti-LGBTQ views on social media - and how free speech got so complicated. The sacking of former star player Israel Folau by Rugby Australia for his comments on social media once again revealed faultlines which had recently been laid bare during Australia’s marriage equality plebiscite. So what did the saga reveal about freedom of expression in Australia? What is the significance of groups like the Australian Christian Lobby in Australia’s public discourse? And, with ‘free speech’ very much a political battleground, what might the future hold?
