  • Determination in Apocalyptic Literature from the Wycliffe Bible of 1388 to the United Nations World Conference on Human Rights of 1993
    1 CREATORS, CREATURES AND VICTIM-SURVIVORS: WORD, SILENCE AND SOME HUMANE VOICES OF SELF- DETERMINATION IN APOCALYPTIC LITERATURE FROM THE WYCLIFFE BIBLE OF 1388 TO THE UNITED NATIONS WORLD CONFERENCE ON HUMAN RIGHTS OF 1993 Penelope Susan Keable Thesis presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the School of Studies in Religion at the University of Sydney November, 1994 2 THE TITLE Creators, Creatures And Victim-Survivors: Word, Silence And Some Humane Voices Of Self-Determination In Apocalyptic Literature From The Wycliffe Bible Of 1388 To The United Nations World Conference On Human Rights Of 1993 THE THESIS In contemporary apocalyptic rhetoric, polyvalent figures of victim-survivors augment creator-creature dualism, ancient and current. Particular attention is paid to a shift in the creator-creature motif which was foreshadowed in the writings of Giambattista Vico and has been carried forward into contemporary criticism by Northrop Frye. This pursuit attempts to make available to contemporary concern an appreciation of a variety of concepts of humanity, all of which may contribute to an enhanced toleration of diversity. THE ARGUMENT A very simple argument is pursued against the acceptance of one-eyed visions and univocal utterances in interpretation of apocalyptic rhetoric. It is an argument for paying attention to miscellaneous images and polyvalent utterances. This entails an accommodation in thought of convergent and divergent horizons of imagery. So it is an argument for thoughtful tolerance. 3 ABSTRACT This analysis of apocalyptic rhetoric brings nine generations of the written text of the Johannine Apocalypse into a contemporary (1989-1994) framework which includes phenomena such as self-determination, mutual interdependence and psychoterror.

He was, so the warrant read, subject to deportation under the "Act of October 16 , 1 9 1 8 , as amended, for the reason that you have been prior to entry a member of the following class: an alien who is a member of an organi­ zation which was the direct predecessor of the Communist Party of the United States, to wit The Communist Party of America."^ A hearing, originally arranged for April 7» 1953» but delayed until July 27 because of Corey's poor health, was held; but a ruling was not handed down at that time. The Special Inquiry Officer in charge of the case adjourned the hearing pending the receipt of a full report of Corey's activities o during the previous ten years. [The testimony during the hearing had focused primarily on Corey's early writings and political activities.] The hearing was not reconvened, and the question of the defendant's guilt or innocence, as charged, was never formally settled.

History of Case For one to have a reasonable understanding of the present posture of this lawsuit, some attention should be given to its history. Original Case On May 28, 1982 Ishmael Jaffree, individually, and as father and next friend of his three children, brought an action against the Board of School Commissioners of Mobile County, its Superintendent, various principals and teachers seeking a declaratory judgment and restraining order against the defendants from maintaining or allowing the maintenance of regular religious prayer services or other forms of religious observances in the Mobile public schools. Jurisdiction was invoked pursuant to Title 28, § 1343(3) and (4) and §§ 2201 and 2202. The cause of action, it was alleged, arose under the First and Fourteenth Amendments to the United States Constitution and pursuant to Title 42, §§ 1983 and 1988. In June the action was amended in order to claim class action privileges.
