  • T. F. Torrance on the Centenary of His Birth: a Biographical and Theological Synopsis with Some Personal Reminiscences
    T. F. TORRANCE ON THE CENTENARY OF HIS BIRTH: A BIOGRAPHICAL AND THEOLOGICAL SYNOPSIS WITH SOME PERSONAL REMINISCENCES Thomas A. Noble, PhD Professor of Theology, Nazarene Theological Seminary Senior Research Fellow in Theology, Nazarene Theological College, Manchester [email protected] Abstract: Given as a lecture at the meeting of the T. F. Torrance Theological Fellowship on 21st November, 2013, this paper celebrates the centenary of Torrance’s birth. It begins with the world into which he was born and the ethos of the evangelical missionary movement to which his family belonged. Major aspects of his thinking are considered against his biographical background as they became prominent in the development of his theology: the Reformed tradition and his ecumenical endeavours, his profound analysis of the scientic metho of theolog in relation to the natural sciences his focus on the Incarnation and the Atonement, his engagement with the Greek Fathers, and his place in the Trinitarian revival. The review of Torrance’s thought is interspersed with personal reminiscences from several years as Torrance’s student at New College, Edinburgh in the 1970s and from later contact. To return in thought to 1913, the year in which T. F. Torrance was born, is to return to another world. The German Kaiser, the Austrian Kaiser, the Czar of all the Russias, and the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire all still ruled – not to mention his Britannic Majesty, King George V, Emperor of India, presiding over the largest empire the world had ever seen. His Royal Navy dominated the oceans of the world and had been instrumental in abolishing piracy and the slave trade for ever (or so it was thought).

DO BAD THINGS HAPPEN WHEN WORKS ENTER THE PUBLIC DOMAIN?: EMPIRICAL TESTS OF COPYRIGHT TERM EXTENSION Christopher Buccafusco. & Paul J. Heald ABSTRACT According to the current copyright statute, in 2018, copyrighted works of music, film, and literature will begin to transition into the public domain. While this will prove a boon for users and creators, it could be disastrous for the owners of these valuable copyrights. Accordingly, the next few years will witness another round of aggressive lobbying by the film, music, and publishing industries to extend the terms of already-existing works.

Boeckx February L97I .ånne E. Boecks 1972 ABSTRACT The purpose of this study is to explore Sheridan's dramatíc art as ít develops in his minor plays--St. Patrick's Day, The Duenna and å Trip to scarborough--and particularly his comic masterpieces--The Rivals and The School for Scandal. To the Restoration and sentimental modes of comedy, the plays owe many of their themes and Sheridan much of his inspiration and craftsmanship as a comic dramatist. Sheridan, hovtrever, is no mere imitator who mechanically adheres to ej-ther tradi- tion. Rather, to his blending of the Restoration and senti- mental comic modes, he adds his own distinctive comic ingredients. Thus, his Restoration and sentimental models are transformed into a ne\^/ comic mode. This study, then, shows how Sheridan effects a blending of his two inherited traditions. Even more import- antly, it indicates Sheridanrs own artistry and his skill as a transformer, or alchemíst, of comic modes. In Chapter One, a brief summary of the Restoration and sentj-mental modes establishes the nature of Sheridan's basic comic models. Chapter Two, which deals with the minor plays, points to Sheridan's attempt to transform the two traditions into a new comic mode. The third chapter is devoted to a detailed discussion of The Riva]s, one of Sheridanrs more successful efforts as a transformer of comic traditíons.
