The pioneers in thi s illustrious fie14 ware the Sons of St. Benedict , but they had followers and tators in tbe Orders W'Ilioh gradually SPHllg up in tbe Catholic Church. The Cistercians, the Carthusians and t llgUstlD1ans and practically Ill. religiOUS Orders became the t ers of libraries in connection Wit h their monastiC 1nst1tutions, l1brari reserved tor posterity the literary treas s of the ages and gave a tremendous impulse t o the di88 tion ot humll ]mowle ana. cul ture.

This made books available in quality and quantity to practica.lly' every stratum ot humansoolety.

The Evil Savage Other as Enemy in Modern U.S. Presidential Discourse 1 The Evil Savage Other as Enemy in Modern U.S. Presidential Discourse Jérôme Viala-Gaudefroy 1 Most scholars in international relations hold the view that our knowledge of the world is a human and social construction rather than the mere reflection of reality (Wendt 1994; Finnemore 1996). This perspective, rooted in constructivist epistemology, implies that nations are not unquestionable ancient natural quasi-objective entities, as primordialist nationalists claim, but rather cognitive constructions shaped by stories their members imagine and relate.1 This was famously illustrated by Benedict Anderson’s study of nationalism that reached the compelling conclusion that any community “larger than that primordial village of face-to-face contact” can only be imagined (Anderson 1983: 6). The identity of a nation is undoubtedly dependent on stories its members imagine and relate.

After it was released by the Committee, Sen.

Burton’s words invoke the gallery of maps Pope Alexander VII assembled in Castel Gandolfo outside Rome in 1665 and animate Sutton Nicholls’s ink-and-wash drawing of Samuel Pepys’s library in London in 1693 (Fig. 1).2 There, in a room lined with bookcases and portraits, a map stands out, mounted on canvas and sus- pended from two cords; it is Giovanni Battista Falda’s view of Rome, published in 1676.

Paul told us: "...we have many things to say, and hard to be uttered, seeing ye {most Christians} are dull of hearing. For when the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; And are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat. For everyone that useth milk is unskillful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe. But strong meat {the real truth of what is happening in the world today} belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil {are able to understand}." [1] There are many who look but do not see, listen but do not hear as God told us, that True Israel, the Anglo-Saxon, Scandinavian, Celtic and kindred people were: "Son of man, thou dwellest in the midst of a rebellious house, which have eyes to see, and see not; they have ears to hear, and hear not: for they are a rebellious house." [2] They join the latest and current cliche or clique because it has the appeal of the hour.

  • Fiestas and Fervor: Religious Life and Catholic Enlightenment in the Diocese of Barcelona, 1766-1775
    FIESTAS AND FERVOR: RELIGIOUS LIFE AND CATHOLIC ENLIGHTENMENT IN THE DIOCESE OF BARCELONA, 1766-1775 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Andrea J. Smidt, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2006 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Dale K. Van Kley, Adviser Professor N. Geoffrey Parker Professor Kenneth J. Andrien ____________________ Adviser History Graduate Program ABSTRACT The Enlightenment, or the "Age of Reason," had a profound impact on eighteenth-century Europe, especially on its religion, producing both outright atheism and powerful movements of religious reform within the Church. The former—culminating in the French Revolution—has attracted many scholars; the latter has been relatively neglected. By looking at "enlightened" attempts to reform popular religious practices in Spain, my project examines the religious fervor of people whose story usually escapes historical attention. "Fiestas and Fervor" reveals the capacity of the Enlightenment to reform the Catholicism of ordinary Spaniards, examining how enlightened or Reform Catholicism affected popular piety in the diocese of Barcelona. This study focuses on the efforts of an exceptional figure of Reform Catholicism and Enlightenment Spain—Josep Climent i Avinent, Bishop of Barcelona from 1766- 1775. The program of “Enlightenment” as sponsored by the Spanish monarchy was one that did not question the Catholic faith and that championed economic progress and the advancement of the sciences, primarily benefiting the elite of Spanish society. In this context, Climent is noteworthy not only because his idea of “Catholic Enlightenment” opposed that sponsored by the Spanish monarchy but also because his was one that implicitly condemned the present hierarchy of the Catholic Church and explicitly ii advocated popular enlightenment and the creation of a more independent “public sphere” in Spain by means of increased literacy and education of the masses.

Wilson B.A., Simon Fraser University, 2012 Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in the Department of Linguistics Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences Fiona M. Wilson 2015 SIMON FRASER UNIVERSITY Spring 2015 Approval Name: Fiona Wilson Degree: Master of Arts Title: An Investigation of the Impact of Frequency on the Development of Latin to Spanish Examining Committee: Chair: Chung-Hye Han Professor Panayiotis Pappas Senior Supervisor Associate Professor Arne Mooers Supervisor Professor Maite Taboada Supervisor Professor Alexandra D’Arcy External Examiner Associate Professor Department of Linguistics University of Victoria Date Defended/Approved: February 27, 2015 ii Partial Copyright Licence iii Abstract Previous research has suggested a relationship between frequency of use (FoU) and language change (Pagel, Atkinson, & Meade, 2007), but its nature remains unclear. Two research questions were raised in this thesis: 1) whether FoU remains stable over time, 2) whether amount of language change over time can be predicted using FoU. A 1147-word subset of the IDS wordlist (Key & Comrie, 2007) was used to test these questions. The FoU of both Latin and Spanish, and amount of change for each word was measured. There was a lower correlation across time than cross-linguistically, but the effect of genre could not be removed. A weak, highly significant negative relationship between FoU and amount of change was identified, supporting the claim that high frequency words change less than low frequency words. There is an intriguing correlation between FoU and lexical change, but the causal mechanism is not yet understood.
