Cr 5 INTRODUCTION° On February 25th and 26th, lq77, over 650 teachers, parents, admiDistrators: school board members and others spent nearly twelve hours together learning about the current'"state of the art" in working with gifted and talented children. This book contains papers from each of the keynote speakers and selected papers from soille of the, workshop session'leaders. Sidney Parnes, Dorothy Sisk and James Gallagher were instrumental in helping to bring to- gether the most current thoughts on the education of the gifted/talented child. In his paper, "Creative Potential and .the Educational Experience", Sidney J. Parnes states that, 'Failing to use mental resources is wasteful both to society and to the individual himself." He further states that "a common eduCational ohjective is to help each persondevelop his mind to its changing,world, , fullest potential, o educate him to live effectively in a td prepare him to institute changes.where they are needed and to adjust to those changes thJit he is forced to accept." Both of these comments are in- cluded in his ilgsophy of Creative Behavior", which sets the pace for his continuing discussion of the nature of creative behavior and ways offacilita ting the creative process. Dorothy Sisk, in her article, "Teaching the Gifted and Talented", gives a short.look at the histriy of the role.of the federal government in thP education of the gifted and then speaks of ways of developing quality programs' to meet the needs of our gifted/talented population. for - In answer to the quastion, "Why should we have special programs -the gifted?", James Gallagher, in his article, "Needed Programsfor the Gifted", answers that "... the reason why we should allbe interested (in the education' of the gifted). is that we all- bave a'stake in their future, Jpecausethe solu- tion,; to our major societal and cultural problems--the economy, the population'. explosión, Pellution, energy,,and our own drifting sense of purpose.as anation-- will not be solved by a.cavalry charge on a Congressionalresolution. It will be solved only by the liard, extensive work of thebrightest and most highly :-.1otivated persons in our society." Gallagher continues by stating his strong concern for the content of curriculum used in Programs,for gifted children and hosdeveloped a "support system" that represents six.major components that should comprise anysubstantial pronraM for the gifted in order to justify itself as aquality program. The eleven papers-from the workshop session leadershelp to discuss their. current area of i-nterest and how the gifted/talentedchild is made 0 part of their orocir:tm. School divisions in the Northern Virginia area all work with their gifted/talented populations in slightly different ways. Itis not in the difference that we should make note, but.in the common desire to do the best we possibly can for the child who' caes to us as gifted or talented. I hope that this collection.of papers will help in that end. Falls Church, Virginia , Jeffrey H.

  • POPES HORATIAN POEMS.Pdf (10.50Mb)
    THOMAS E. MARESCA OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY PRESS $5.00 POEMS BY THOMAS E. MARESCA Recent critical studies of Alexander Pope have sought to define his poetic accom­ plishment in terms of a broadened aware­ ness of what the eighteenth century called wit. That Pope's achievement can be lo­ cated in wit is still generally agreed; but it now seems clear that the fullest signifi­ cance of his poetry can be found in the more serious meaning the Augustans at­ tached to that word: the ability to discern and articulate—to "invent," in the classical sense—the fundamental order of the world, of society, and of man, and to express that order fittingly in poetry. Mr. Maresca maintains that it is Pope's success in this sort of invention that is the manifest accomplishment of his Imitations of Horace. And Mr. Maresca finds that, for these purposes, the Renaissance vision of Horace served Pope well by providing a concordant mixture of rational knowledge and supernatural revelation, reason and faith in harmonious balance, and by offer­ ing as well all the advantages of applying ancient rules to modern actions. Within the expansive bounds of such traditions Pope succeeded in building the various yet one universe of great poetry. Thomas E. Maresca is assistant professor of English at the Ohio State University, POPE'S POEMS For his epistles, say they, are weighty and powerful; hut his bodily presence is weak, and his speech contemptible.

MARESCA OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY PRESS Copyright © 1966 by the Ohio State University Press All Rights Reserved Library of Congress Catalogue Card Number: 66-23259 MEIS DEBETUR Preface THIS BOOK is an attempt to read some eighteenth-century poems; it is much more a learning experiment on my part than any sort of finished criticism.

  • The Nude Figure in Renaissance Art Thomas Martin
    19 The Nude Figure in Renaissance Art Thomas Martin The establishment of the nude as an independent and vital subject in post-antique western art occurred during the Renaissance and is, along with the use of perspective, one of the most important markers differentiating Renaissance art from medieval art. One factor driving these innovations was the desire to portray a world that conforms to visual reality, where objects decrease in size as they move away from the picture plane, and where human anatomy is rigorously understood. Just as Renaissance artists employed perspective to portray naturalistic spaces, so they also populated those spaces with proportional, anatomically accurate figures and, during the course of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, the occasions when those figures were depicted nude occurred more and more frequently. Naturalism, however, was but one motive for the increased use of the nude, and by the first half of the 1500s, the naked body had achieved a wider and more varied presence in art than had been the case in the Middle Ages or even in antiquity where, with few exceptions, its use was confined to male athletes, heroes, and divinities. This essay will focus on two issues: where is the nude used – i.e., what are its locations – and what are the meanings of its uses? As it is today, the body in the Renaissance was multivalent. European Christian society believed that as a cause of lust and sin, the body was fearful and needed to be covered up. Yet at the same time it was the form the Savior, Jesus Christ, took during his lifetime, and the Catholic Church taught that it is in our very own earthly bodies that, after the last trumpet, we will spend eternity either in bliss in Heaven or in despair in Hell.

  • Is God an Obstacle to Science
    Is it Creation, Evolution or Intelligent Design? Was there a “Big Bang”? What is a “Black Hole?” Are the so-called Dinosaurs mentioned in the Bible? Are Science and Religion compatible Friends or incompatible Foes? (This study is jam packed with Bible quotations … For the sake of flow, biblical passages are sometimes repeated for emphasis and convenience) “For we cannot do anything against the truth, but only for the truth” (2Cor 13:8)… “Truth cannot contradict truth, and will never go against God, for he is the one and only Absolute Truth” (All Heavenly Faiths’ stance) "When you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth" (Attributed to Sherlock Holmes - TV fictional character-) “Numberless are the world’s wonders, but none are more wonderful than man himself” (Sophocles) “Fate determines what will happen to us, while ideas, convictions and intentions are no more than phosphorescent epiphenomena” (Joseph W. Krutch) PRELUDE “I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hid these things from the wise and prudent, and have revealed them unto babes” (Matt 11:25). Although he opposed Christianity and passionately defended paganism, Lycaeus Proclus (410- 485AD), the Greek philosopher and dialectician, wrote this opinion in one of his commentaries: “The first principle in NeoPlatonism is the One (to Hen). It is the principle which produces all Being. For this reason, the NeoPlatonists thought that the One could not itself be a being. If it were a being, it would have a particular nature, and so could not be universally productive of all being.

  • The Head As Subject Matter in Sculpture by Lewis Daniel Acker A
    The head as subject matter in sculpture by Lewis Daniel Acker A thesis submitted to the Graduate Faculty in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF APPLIED ART Montana State University © Copyright by Lewis Daniel Acker (1965) Abstract: The purpose of this thesis is to come to a fuller and clearer understanding of my own position in relationship to the most prominent subject matter of my work - the human head. I hope to accomplish this by two means: 1. The study of the feelings of a variety of master sculptors towards the subject of the head; 2. The writing of my own personal convictions concerning my philosophy of sculpture in general and the place of the head as subject matter in my own work. There is only one specific conclusion involved in this paper besides the hope that it will give me a better understanding of myself and my work and perhaps provide me with more intelligent questions. The single conclusion is that in spite of the wide variety of sculptors discussed they have one thing in common - a background built on the study of the human figure. This study is missing in much of today's art. Perhaps a new outlook towards the examination and investigation of the figure can provide a needed revitalization and direction for art on all levels.

  • Marwood Hill
    MARWOOD HILL The day came for us to leave for the airport. Destination: London. Our four boxes of treasures had long gone by air and would hopefully be waiting for us at Marwood Hill. We arrived at Heathrow exhausted and took the bus into town and then a taxi to my mother’s flat. Margie slept that night in The Slit, I was on the sitting-room floor and the boys camped under the dining-room table. My mother was delighted by our arrival and in hindsight I see that our coming back to England filled the final years of her life with joy. She loved Margie and the boys and of course I was still her baby. Getting old can be a very lonely and sad affair, so our arrival must have been a blessing in her eyes. Next morning we went to Paddington and boarded the express to Exeter and changed trains for Barnstaple. I had rung the taxi driver I had met in August and told him the time of arrival and he promised to be there to meet us. England was in the grip of a cold winter that was a far cry from the sun- soaked beach of Portsea we had enjoyed only a couple of days before. The friendly taxi driver was waiting for us when the train pulled in and we set off up the hill towards Guineaford. The excitement mounted as we turned left down the lane that led to the house, passed the church hall and rectory and drove through the gates of Marwood Hill.

  • Words of Faith
    STATEMENTS ON AND ABOUT POVERTY, HUNGER, HELPING AND CHARITY FROM THE ANALECTS OF CONFUCIUS (Quotations in this collection are drawn from The Essential Confucius, translated by Thomas Cleary, Harper: San Francisco, 1992.) Confucius said, "To guide a state, be serious and faithful in its affairs; be economical and love the people, employing the citizens in season." - 1:5 Confucius said, "Be dutiful at home, brotherly in public; be discreet and trustworthy, love all people, and draw near to humanity. If you have extra energy as you do that, then study literature." - 1:7 A pupil asked Confucius, "If one is poor but does not curry favor, or is rich but not haughty, how would that be?" Confucius said, "Fine, but not as good as one who is poor but takes pleasure in the Way, or one that is rich but still courteous." - 1:15 Confucius said, "Exemplary people understand matters of justice; small people understand matters of profit." - 1:16 Confucius said, "When government is done by virtue, it is like the North Star abiding in its position, with all the other stars surrounding it." - 2:1 One of the elder statesmen of Lu asked Confucius, "How would it be to make the people serious and loyal, and thus enthusiastic?" Confucius said, "Preside over them with dignity, and they will be serious. Be filial and kind, and they will be loyal. Promote the good, instruct the unskilled, and they will be enthusiastic." - 2:20 Confucius said, "If people are not humane, what is the use of rites? If people are not humane, what is the use of music?" - 3:3 Confucius said, "If people are in high positions but are not magnanimous, if they perform courtesies without respect, or if they attend funerals without sadness, how can I see them?" - 3:26 Confucius said, "It is beautiful to make humaneness one’s home.
