This thesis seeks to account for virginity as the source of Mary' s power to attract. The point of departure is the syncretistic culture of the classical world. Here, patristic use of Old Testament typology recognises the distinctive work of grace in Mary's virginity, thus allowing it to become the determining quality by which her experience is subsequently perceived and universalised. The thesis divides its exploration into the three categories by which Mary is portrayed in the gospels - woman, spouse, mother - concluding its investigation with the end of the nineteenth century and its new understanding of human identity in gender and sexuality. In each category the thesis attempts to identify ways in which the attraction of virginity has functioned through ambiguity (Mary as virgin and mother, mother and spouse of her son) as a positive quality of potency and freedom, rather than as a strictly biological human condition with negative association in contemporary culture. In order to assess the extent ofMary's attraction in periods that lacked the modem forms of articulating self-awareness, the thesis has considered the fabric of devotional practice in religious texts, art, drama and ritual, seeking to allow the perceptions of earlier periods of history (a medium in itself) to challenge our own. As expressions of attraction to Mary, these media have yielded an insight into the power of virginity as a statement of paradisal, heavenly life accessed by grace through male and female human experience. They have also shown virginity to be a source of power that can be exploited for political ends. Finally, the thesis suggests that the power ofMary's virginity has been subversive and liberating in Church and society, thus indicating its neglected significance as a statement about the ambiguity of our nature as human, gendered, and sexual beings. 1 VIRGINITY MATTERS: POWER AND AMBIGUITY IN THE ATTRACTION OF THE VIRGIN MARY A copyright of this thesis rests with the author.

But the reality her myth described is over. 1 It is the intention of this thesis to investigate Mary's power to attract, seeking to address a question that could be regard as problematic: Does virginity matter? For some, the power of virginity might be regarded as a culturally and historically determined category of attraction, a myth applied to Mary. And if we wished to loosen its association with her, could we perhaps qualify Mary's identity as virgin and thereby discover the woman who, as Joseph's wife and the mother of his children lives a life that enfolds the miraculous birth of the word made flesh with an experience more like our own? To what extent would we then locate Mary's power to attract in her identity as virgin, and to what extent in her experience as woman, spouse and mother? Attraction is itself an expression of power. We therefore begin this investigation with a chapter that seeks to identify the source ofMary's power to attract. It charts what her place might be in the Christian tradition that had its formative years in the syncretistic culture of the Mediterranean. The issue that confronts us in that context is whether Mary enters Christian devotion as a figure derived from the slender and sometimes unpromising profile of her in the gospels, or from the assembly of goddesses that enchanted the ancient pagan world. But even the recognition ofMary as human and creaturely, not a goddess, does not eliminate other questions about the - 1 Marina Warner, Alone of All Her Sex: The Myth and Cult of the Virgin Mary (London: Picador, 1985) p. 338. 6 power of her attraction. Might she be a personification of the projection of female human experience into the life of the divine, of God? How relative might this projection be? How does it connect with the figure ofMary in the gospels? Against these questions we set out in the first chapter the early patristic account of Mary's virginity as a scriptural sign ofpre-lapsarian and heavenly life revealed in the new creation of the birth of Jesus.

SEX MORALS AND THE LAW IN ANCIENT EGYPT AND BABYLON. JAMEs BuoNsoN REYNoLDS.' EGYPT. Present knowledge of the criminal law of ancient Egypt relating to sex morals is fragmentary and incomplete in spite of the fact that considerable light has been thrown upon the subject by recent excava- tions and scholarship. We have not yet, however, sufficient data to de- termine the character or moral value of Egyptian law, or of its in- fluence on the Medeterranean world. Egyptian law was, however, elaborately and carefully expanded during the flourishing period of the nation's history.2 Twenty thousand volumes are said to have been written on the Divine law of Hermes, the traditional law-giver of Egypt, whose position is similar to that of Manu in relation to the laws of India. And while it is impossible to trace the direct influence of Egyptian law on the laws of later nations, its indirect influence upon the founders of Grecian law is established beyond ques- tion.

  • Overlord Volume 10 - Capítulo 3
    Overlord Volume 10 - Capítulo 3 O Império Baharuth Tradutor: União Overlord Revisor: Tio Vlad Parte 1 Albedo estava prestes a partir para o Reino em um dia claro e ensolarado, e Ainz foi ao pátio de sua residência para se despedir dela. Havia cinco carruagens luxuosas estacionadas lá. Uma delas era para Albedo e outra para sua bagagem. Uma das carruagens restantes continha presentes para o rei, para dar ênfase na diferença entre o poder do Reino e do Reino Arcano. Em torno destas carruagens estavam 20 Cavaleiros da Morte que Ainz tinha criado. Teria sido muito mais fácil apenas tele transportá-los para o Reino, mas haviam escolhido não fazer isso. Albedo e seu grupo eram os responsáveis por demonstrar o poder do Reino Arcano. Parte disso significava usar monstros no lugar de cavalos para puxar as carruagens. Uma ameaça implícita, por assim dizer. "Então, Ainz-sama, por favor, se cuide por um tempo." "Umu, tenha cuidado. Ainda não encontramos as pessoas que controlaram Shalltear. É por isso que não podemos excluir a possibilidade de que eles possam estar tentando controlá-la, e então usá-la como parte de uma grande aposta para infligir danos maciços em Nazarick. " "Claro. Eu vou ser cuidadosa e nunca deixarei isso acontecer comigo." Albedo estava abraçando um item de classe mundial em seu peito. "Eu acredito que possuir isso deva eliminar o risco de ser hipnotizada por um Item de classe mundial. No entanto, o inimigo pode não estar limitado a usar apenas esse item. Além disso, embora este Item de Classe Mundial que você possui é o mais poderoso contra objetos físicos, não se esqueça que não é muito útil contra alvos individuais." "É assim mesmo? Mas, usarei isto como uma arma principal assim que mudar sua forma..." "É mais fraco do que um item de classe divina especializado.

The Catholic Church officially teaches that Islam is an abomination – a false religion from which people need to be converted and saved. Pope Eugene IV, Council of Basel, 1434: “… there is hope that very many from the abominable sect of Mahomet will be converted to the Catholic faith.” Pope Callixtus III: “I vow to… exalt the true Faith, and to extirpate the diabolical sect [Islam] of the reprobate and faithless Mahomet in the East.” Benedict XVI, General Audience, Sept. 20, 2006: “... I emphasized... my deep respect for the great religions, and especially the Muslims, who ‘worship God…’ ” Notice that he has “deep respect” for not only the false religion of Islam, but other false religions.
