  • “Angels Affect Us Oft”: Angelic Imagery in the Poetic Works of John Donne John Donne Is Widely Considered One of the Most Im
    1 “Angels affect us oft”: Angelic Imagery in the Poetic Works of John Donne John Donne is widely considered one of the most important poets of the English Renaissance. Known for both his highly intricate and occasionally sexual romantic poems as well as his religious poems, he was one of the most complex artists of his age. Donne was born in 1572 into a recusant Catholic family. His father was well respected in the community, and was able to escape persecution during his lifetime. He died in 1576 and Donne’s mother remarried, this time to a Catholic doctor. His mother was the great-niece of Sir (and Saint to Catholics) Thomas More, and religious persecution was a constant in his family for most of his formative years. Donne lived in fear of persecution for most of his early life, and as a young man lost many opportunities because of his religion. He was not allowed to complete his degree at Oxford due to his faith and his refusal to take the Oath of Supremacy. His biographer Isaac Walton asserts that he then transferred to Cambridge to complete his degree, but there is no mention of this in the historical record.1 His younger brother Henry died in prison after being caught harboring a Catholic priest. Donne had cause to question his faith. Donne converted to Anglicanism by 1615 and was ordained in the Church of England, after much encouragement from James I, eventually becoming Dean of St. Paul’s Cathedral in 1621. Despite his conversion and the publishing of several anti-Catholic works, Catholic imagery, themes and ideology still dominate many of his religious poems.

All of the things that we see on television and read about in books and newspapers are vividly planted in our minds for us to decipher and do with what we will, to our advantage or to our disadvantage. In all of this downloading of exposure to the modern world, we tend to pick out people that we admire, that we wish we could be like, and that we might call our heroes. But how many of them are really worthy of our admiration or of our imitation or exhibit a heroic character that one might call Christ-like? Wouldn’t you want your hero to be an extraordinary person? Heroes can come in all shapes and sizes, are of all ages and kind, and might be living or dead. It is good to have those people in our lives who’ll help us work toward striving to be that better person, to have that better life, and who’ll inspire us to reach the ultimate goals that we seek to accomplish.

  • Conceptual Trends in the History of Systems Philosophy
    International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Vol. 1 No. 11 [Special Issue – August 2011] Conceptual Trends in the History of Systems Philosophy Robert Drury King Assistant Professor, Department of Humanities Sierra Nevada College 999 Tahoe Boulevard, Incline Village, NV Email: [email protected] Abstract This article charts the history of the concept of system in order to establish a set of conceptual trends in the philosophy of systems. Establishing the importance of the German Idealists, and especially Hegel, in this history, we then focus on the system of Leibniz since he marks a decisive turn toward the problem of individuation within the systematic, ontological immanence so important to Hegel and later, Gilles Deleuze. We also concentrate on the Kantian system, however, because the system ontologies of Hegel and Deleuze are defined most clearly as post-Kantian projects. Finally, the article defines the problem of “system individuation” as a recent historical trend in systems philosophy, a project unique to both Hegel and Deleuze. Key Words: system, individuation, autopoiesis, German Idealism, Hegel, Leibniz, Kant, Deleuze 1. Introduction Little attention has been paid to the historical development of the concept of system in order to understand what is meant by the term. Yet work outside of philosophy—work in experimental embryology, developmental psychology, sociological theory, even the physical and chemical sciences—has converged on a conception of system which first found decisive focus in the German Idealist philosophical tradition. To be sure, the widespread, even casual, use of the term in the 20th and 21st centuries—we speak readily of „ecosystems,‟ „political systems‟—owes a conceptual debt to the German Idealists who first formalized the notion of system as a philosophical concept in its own right.

  • Ballad Opera in England: Its Songs, Contributors, and Influence
    BALLAD OPERA IN ENGLAND: ITS SONGS, CONTRIBUTORS, AND INFLUENCE Julie Bumpus A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF MUSIC August 7, 2010 Committee: Vincent Corrigan, Advisor Mary Natvig ii ABSTRACT Vincent Corrigan, Advisor The ballad opera was a popular genre of stage entertainment in England that flourished roughly from 1728 (beginning with John Gay's The Beggar's Opera) to 1760. Gay's original intention for the genre was to satirize not only the upper crust of British society, but also to mock the “excesses” of Italian opera, which had slowly been infiltrating the concert life of Britain. The Beggar's Opera and its successors were to be the answer to foreign opera on British soil: a truly nationalistic genre that essentially was a play (building on a long-standing tradition of English drama) with popular music interspersed throughout. My thesis explores the ways in which ballad operas were constructed, what meanings the songs may have held for playwrights and audiences, and what influence the genre had in England and abroad. The thesis begins with a general survey of the origins of ballad opera, covering theater music during the Commonwealth, Restoration theatre, the influence of Italian Opera in England, and The Beggar’s Opera. Next is a section on the playwrights and composers of ballad opera. The playwrights discussed are John Gay, Henry Fielding, and Colley Cibber. Purcell and Handel are used as examples of composers of source material and Mr. Seedo and Pepusch as composers and arrangers of ballad opera music.
