  • What Julian Saw: the Embodied Showings and the Items for Private Devotion
    religions Article What Julian Saw: The Embodied Showings and the Items for Private Devotion Juliana Dresvina History Faculty, University of Oxford, 41-47 George St, Oxford OX1 2BE, UK; [email protected] Received: 28 February 2019; Accepted: 29 March 2019; Published: 2 April 2019 Abstract: The article traces potential visual sources of Julian of Norwich’s (1343–after 1416) Revelations or Showings, suggesting that many of them come from familiar everyday devotional objects such as Psalters, Books of Hours, or rosary beads. It attempts to approach Julian’s text from the perspective of neuromedievalism, combining more familiar textual analysis with some recent findings in clinical psychology and neuroscience. By doing so, the essay emphasizes the embodied nature of Julian’s visions and devotions as opposed to the more apophatic approach expected from a mystic. Keywords: revelations; mysticism; ekphrasis; neuromedievalism; neuroarthistory; psychohistory; Julian of Norwich; visions; sleep paralysis; psalters; books of hours; rosary beads 1. Introduction This paper has a very simple thesis to illustrate: that a lot, if not most of theology, found in the writings of Julian of Norwich (1343–after 1416)—a celebrated mystic and the first English female author known by name—comes from familiar, close-to-home objects and images. Images are such an integral aspect of our existence that the famous neuroscientist Rodolfo Llinás, and many after him, claimed that our brain is about making images (Llinás and Paré 1991; Damasio 2010, pp. 63–88). However, such complicated private visual experiences as dream-visions or mystical revelations are insufficient to synthesise knowledge per se, particularly if understood as aimed at a broader community.

  • A Case Study of Neuro-Autobiographies in the Age Of
    THE VERNACULARISATION OF MODERN NEUROSCIENCES: A CASE STUDY OF NEURO-AUTOBIOGRAPHIES IN THE AGE OF COMPLEXITY ANDREA CLAUDIA VALENTE A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN HUMANITIES YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO MAY 2020 © Andrea C. Valente, 2020 ABSTRACT This dissertation explores the vernacularisation of modern neurosciences which refers to the everyday communication and materialization of neuroscientific concepts for and by a lay population in order to reframe society’s understanding of ‘brain disorders’, ‘mental illness’, and ultimately the ‘self’. Taking this social phenomenon into account, this dissertation examines how neuroscientific knowledge may get ‘entangled’, ‘enfolded’, ‘unfolded’ as in the case study of self-narratives written by professional women with neurological conditions which are coined here as ‘neuro-autobiographies’. The interaction between the neuroscientific knowledge and the autobiographer’s lived experience with a brain condition contributes to a complex process of life-writing and rhetorical expressions, which creates an ecological relation with various agents, contexts, and networks that emerge organically out of noise, disturbances, interruptions, and fluctuations; ultimately, such interactions can challenge the order-disorder of the discourses. In this view, the neuro-autobiographies transcend the concept of a literary genre, once they are considered part of a communication system that is dynamic, non-linear, and self-organized. The theoretical framework developed in this dissertation is interdisciplinary, grounded in concepts from applied linguistics, complexity thought (e.g. complex adaptive systems), women’s autobiography studies, and pedagogical studies. This dissertation applies a qualitative methodology based on discourse analysis (e.g.

Doctoral Committee ______________________________________________ David Flinders, Ph.D. ______________________________________________ Mary McMullen, Ph.D. ______________________________________________ Gary Crow, Ph.D. ______________________________________________ Melissa Keller, Ph.D. April 28, 2015 ii Copyright © 2015 Kimberlee Belcher iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Tree people, those who lose themselves in the earthly smells, vibrant hues, and energizing presence of immaculate plants soaring over them; from childhood, I have been captivated by trees. Tree people can silently identify another and convey understanding that is difficult to articulate; it’s in the ways they understand life. A longtime favorite tree, for me, has been the old and wise Sequoia, whose name means “forever living.” The similar Redwood tree reaches heights over 300 feet toward the sky, can live to be 2,000 years old, and never truly dies. When the main tree dies, sprouts grow out of the tree forming “fairy rings” (trees that form a ring around the original tree). This magnificent entity has the capacity to live on even after its own death. It became a remarkable metaphor for this professional experience; in this moment, doing this work as only the sprout of professional Redwood lineage. If I accomplish only one thing in this work, it is to call upon the wisdom generously and patiently laid before me by my own family, mentors, guides, friends, and pioneering giants on whose shoulders I am uplifted.

    Journal of Education and Future, year: 2013, issue: 4, 1 - 15 The Neuro-Building Blocks of Learning: Improving School Readiness and Overcoming Learning Difficulties Helena Karabulut* Abstract Every child should be given the benefit of a well designed early childhood education as this prepare them for the formal education they will receive in the following ten to fifteen years. The latest researches of how children learn and how the brain functions are fundamentally changing the educational paradigm and with it the approach to teaching pre-school children. This discusses new insights into the neuro-sensory and motor development of children and its implications for child development, school readiness and effective approaches to minimise the effects of learning difficulties. In order for the brain to cope with the demands of formal education, it needs to be exposed to and learn to deal with a rich variety of sensory and motor experiences, both at home and in early childhood education facilities. The sedentary indoor lifestyle dominated by screen time as experienced by many children today will not provide sufficient brain activation, whilst exposure to storytelling and music, and most notable outdoor play, will provide the growing child and the developing brain with a much more challenging and rewarding sensory and motor experience. Early childhood education plays a key role in facilitating healthy neurological development in pre-school children, which will filter through to increased attainment at primary and secondary school level. This article provides recommendations for effective ECD policies for Turkey, based on increased sensory, motor and outdoor play activities. Keywords: Education, school readiness, neurodevelopment, learning difficulties.
