Utilizing a Trinitarian method influenced by Nicholas Cusanus, Sterry’s moral theology is an ethic of universal reform, regarding not only the human person but society at large. Sterry uses the logic of coincidence promoted by Cusanus to argue that all truths, even the contradiction of being and non-being are in reality unified in the ultimate Truth that descends from God. Like the Neoplatonists (and Cusanus), Sterry argues that only the ‘higher’ kinds of intellection, such as the divine and angelic intellects (nous), are set above the ‘wall’ of opposites perceived by discursive reason (dianoia). Sterry sees this contrast between higher and lower reason as indicative of the Triune shape of the mind, which he delineates according to unity (essence), variety (understanding), and union (will) as the proper method for viewing all of reality. This Triune vision of the soul unites philosophy and theology, as it replicates the life of Christ in his birth, death, and resurrection, in the ‘birth’ of divinity in the intellect, the subordination of understanding and discursive reason to God, and the union of the intellect and will in the soul as it is united with God’s vision. The acceptance of the coincidence of opposites not only enables one to participate in the divine Life, but it also illuminates the whole person with divine Virtue, which is the intellectual vision of the soul forming its concepts and loves into their Triune shape of unity, variety, and union. Sterry’s Trinitarian method is inherently practical, as it provides for a broader sense of tolerance and freedom in the individual as well as society as it limits human ambition, specifically the quest for absolute certainty in matters of religion and politics. This study shows how Peter Sterry worked to propose a practical Christian philosophy as the means to universal reform and peace in seventeenth-century England. Resumé Platoniste de Cambridge et ancien aumônier d’Oliver Cromwell, Peter Sterry (1613-1672) a employé la métaphysique néoplatonicienne pour former une philosophie chrétienne qui facilite une transformation complète du soi. Utilisant une méthode trinitaire influencée par Nicholas Cusanus, la théologie morale de Sterry est une éthique de réforme universelle, concernant non seulement la personne humaine mais la société dans son ensemble. Sterry utilise la logique de coïncidence promue par Cusanus pour soutenir que toutes les vérités, même la contradiction de l’être et du non-être, sont en réalité unifiées dans la Vérité ultime qui descend de Dieu. Comme les néo-platoniciens (et Cusanus), Sterry soutient que seules les formes d’intellection «supérieures», telles que les intellects divins et angéliques (nous), sont situées au-dessus du «mur» des opposés perçus par la raison discursive (dianoïa). Sterry voit ce contraste entre une raison supérieure et inférieure comme indicateur de la forme trinitaire de l’esprit, qu’il délimite selon l’unité (essence), la variété (intellect) et l’union (volonté) comme méthode appropriée pour voir toute la réalité. Cette vision trine de l’âme unit la philosophie et la théologie, comme elle reproduit la vie du Christ dans sa naissance, sa mort et sa résurrection, dans la «naissance» de la divinité dans l’intellect, la subordination de la raison discursive et l'intellect à Dieu, et l’union de l’intellect et de la volonté dans l’âme telle qu’elle s’unit à la vision de Dieu. L’acceptation de la coïncidence des opposúx permet non seulement de participer à la vie divine, mais illumine aussi toute la personne avec la Vertu divine, qui est la vision intellectuelle de l’âme formant ses concepts et ses amours dans leur forme trinitaire d’unité, de variété et d’union. La méthode trinitaire de Sterry est intrinsèquement pratique, car elle offre un sens plus large de tolérance et de liberté à l’individu comme à la société, car elle limite l’ambition humaine, en particulier la quête d’une certitude absolue en matière de religion et de politique. Cette étude montre comment Peter Sterry a travaillé pour proposer une philosophie chrétienne pratique comme moyen de réforme universelle et de paix dans l’Angleterre du dix-septième siècle.

    Amy Austin Love of Language as the Language of Love: Image, Reading and Translatio Studii et Imperii in Ramon Llull’s (1232-1316) Arbre de filosofia d’amor (1298) Amy M. Austin University of Texas at Arlington You know, Phaedrus, that’s the strange thing about writing, which makes it truly analogous to painting. The painter’s products stand before us as though they were alive, but if you question them, they maintain a most majestic silence. It is the same with written words; they seem to talk to you as though they were intelligent, but if you ask them anything about what they say, from a desire to be instructed, they go on telling you just the same thing forever. Plato, Collected Dialogues Ramon Llull (1232-1316) was a vernacular author who shaped the literary, cultural, and religious landscape of medieval Iberia, however his literary works in Catalan are often times excluded from discussions of medieval reading and writing practices. This essay will examine how Llull’s vernacular writings contribute to the evolving definition of translatio studii et imperii, or the transference of knowledge and power, providing insight into how medieval knowledge and power were formed, shared, and promoted. I will critically assess the thresholds of the persistence of traditions that imply that translatio was unilateral or one-dimensional. Specifically, Llull’s Arbre de filosofia d’amor (1298) provides necessary insight into how he developed his own theories of reading and writing practices, and shows why Llull remained a vital influence on the literary and cultural production of medieval Iberia.

  • Antoni Tàpies and Ramon Llull: Towards a Modern Art of Combination
    ANTONI TÀPIES AND RAMON LLULL: TOWARDS A MODERN ART OF COMBINATION Emilie A. Hobert A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS May 2012 Committee: Dr. Andrew Hershberger, Advisor Dr. Allie Terry-Fritsch © 2010 Emilie Hobert All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Andrew Hershberger, Advisor The works of Spanish artist Antoni Tàpies (1923-2012) draw heavily from the themes of the Spanish Civil War and the Catalan region. These topics have been widely discussed in relation to his art. Scholars also frequently examine the relationship between Tàpies’s work and Eastern thought as a major theme throughout his career. While several commentators have noted the influence of Western medieval mystic Ramon Llull (c. 1232 - c. 1315) on Tàpies’s art, this topic has not been given sustained critical attention. This thesis paper argues that the relationship between Tàpies and Llull is not merely stylistic. A close examination of Tàpies’s writings reveals a deeper metaphysical connection between Tàpies’s methodology as an artist and Llull’s methodology as a theologian. I argue that Tàpies employs Llull’s metaphysical model of the “Art of Combination” in his artwork to produce a deeper meaning for the viewer. I demonstrate this claim by an appeal to Tàpies’s writings as well as a formal analysis of his paintings and prints. Finally, I argue that Tàpies’s use of Llull’s Art of Combination can be situated in Tàpies’s wider system of a secular religion, where art has replaced the social function that religion once filled.

Newkome, Ph.D. ____________________________ ____________________________ Faculty Reader Date Howard Ducharme, Ph.D. ____________________________ Faculty Reader Matthew Crawford, Ph.D. ii ABSTRACT This dissertation is about death and its relationship to religion in late seventeenth- century England. The primary argument is that while beliefs about death stemmed from the Reformation tradition, divergent religious reforms of Puritanism and Arminianism did not lead to differing approaches to death. People adapted religious ideas on general terms of Protestant Christianity and not specifically aligned with varying reform movements. This study links apologetics and sermons concerning spiritual death, physical death, and remedies for each to cultural practice through the lens of wills and graves to gauge religious influence. Readers are reminded of the origins of reformed thought, which is what seventeenth-century English theologians built their ideas upon. Religious debates of the day centered on the Puritan and Arminian divide, which contained significantly different ideas of soteriology, a key aspect of a good death in the English ars moriendi.

  • Erasmus Policy Statement (Overall Strategy)
    Erasmus Policy Statement (Overall Strategy) Institution's international (EU and non-EU) strategy. In a world increasingly globalized, interconnected in real time and with important migration flows, it is very important that a professional knows, communicates, works and lives with people belonging to different cultures, sometimes very different from his own. For this reason, it is essential that in his formative stage, at home, or outside, the student interact with people who come from other parts of the world and, without abandoning his roots, values and beliefs, is open to them. Obviously, to speak other languages is important, especially English. However, speak other languages is necessary, but not sufficient. What matters is to be open-minded and wishing to understand the diversity and learn from it. Aware of its relevance, the University Ramon Llull (URL) gives a great importance to the international dimension with the goal of offering to our students the possibility to end up being good professionals able to do their job inside and outside their country, regardless of the sector. To make it possible, our centres have many agreements with foreign universities in all continents with which they exchange students, develop joint programs, conduct research or make benchmark. Being the Ramon Llull University (URL) a federation of schools, we harmonize the overall strategy with the one of each URL member. The main goal is to give to our community (students, professors, staff…) the opportunity to have a truly international experience. To select a university partner, we look at several aspects like, for example, their prestige, the disciplines they offer, the level of the demand of our community to develop exchanges or projects with them; where they are located, for geographical balance and security reasons; the structure of their programs or their research lines.
