  • A New Paradise Ekkehardt Mueller
    A New Paradise Ekkehardt Mueller There is hardly a human being that does not long for peace, fulfillment, harmony, and happiness or, in other words, for some type of a paradise. The Greek talked about Elysium, the land of the blessed, in which good people would be able to live without worries. Germanic tribes dreamed about Valhalla, a splendid palace, where the warriors would feast on the flesh of boars and drink liquor. They would spent their days with sports, fighting, and hunting. Muslims are looking forward to a garden with abundant food to eat, wine to drink, and noble virgins to serve them. Many have tried or are still trying to create a paradise of their own on this earth. In any case, many yearn for complete satisfaction and perfect bliss. The first two chapters of Scripture talk about a paradise that humanity has lost, the last two chapters about a paradise which we may gain. I. Time and Place of the New Paradise • Rev. 20-21 After the Millennium, when Satan and his followers will be destroyed, a new heaven and a new earth will be created (Rev. 21:1). • Rev. 21:1-2 The new paradise will be found on planet earth, probably because it was here that the drama of redemption unfolded, and it was here that Jesus had lived and had been crucified. II. The Features of the New Paradise 1. The City (Rev. 21:10-27) The New Jerusalem reminds us of the garden of Eden and the temple, and it replaces both. In addition, it is found in stark contrast to the great, but wicked city Babylon (Rev 18:10, 21).

  • Death and the Afterlife in Homer
    Death and the Afterlife in Homer Death and what happens after death are universal concerns for humanity; around the world different cultures and religions contemplate our existence, and try to make sense of both our place in the world and our deaths. Although we no longer (for the most part) follow the religious beliefs of the ancient Greeks and Romans, their exploration of mortality and the afterlife can nonetheless be emotionally powerful and meaningful for us. In what follows, we will consider the presentation of death and the afterlife in some of the earliest Greek literature, Homer’s Iliad and Odyssey. The most common name for the underworld was Hades, a personified god and brother of Zeus, but also a place to which the souls of departed mortals go. Hades is in fact far more commonly mentioned as the underworld than as a personified god in Greek literature, although we do see him as an actual character in some myths, most famously in the story of the abduction of Persesphone by Hades, a tale told in the Homeric Hymn to Demeter. In post-classical times, the term Hades was adopted by Christian authors, including the early Church Fathers, Dante and Milton, to refer to the Christian concept of Hell. The term used is the same, but it is important to distinguish between the Christian conception of Hell and Hades. For Christians, Hell is a place to which the souls of the wicked descend after death, whereas the souls of the good are taken to Heaven to be with God. The ancient Greek concept is extremely different.

  • Studies in Early Mediterranean Poetics and Cosmology
    The Ruins of Paradise: Studies in Early Mediterranean Poetics and Cosmology by Matthew M. Newman A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Classical Studies) in the University of Michigan 2015 Doctoral Committee: Professor Richard Janko, Chair Professor Sara L. Ahbel-Rappe Professor Gary M. Beckman Associate Professor Benjamin W. Fortson Professor Ruth S. Scodel Bind us in time, O Seasons clear, and awe. O minstrel galleons of Carib fire, Bequeath us to no earthly shore until Is answered in the vortex of our grave The seal’s wide spindrift gaze toward paradise. (from Hart Crane’s Voyages, II) For Mom and Dad ii Acknowledgments I fear that what follows this preface will appear quite like one of the disorderly monsters it investigates. But should you find anything in this work compelling on account of its being lucid, know that I am not responsible. Not long ago, you see, I was brought up on charges of obscurantisme, although the only “terroristic” aspects of it were self- directed—“Vous avez mal compris; vous êtes idiot.”1 But I’ve been rehabilitated, or perhaps, like Aphrodite in Iliad 5 (if you buy my reading), habilitated for the first time, to the joys of clearer prose. My committee is responsible for this, especially my chair Richard Janko and he who first intervened, Benjamin Fortson. I thank them. If something in here should appear refined, again this is likely owing to the good taste of my committee. And if something should appear peculiarly sensitive, empathic even, then it was the humanity of my committee that enabled, or at least amplified, this, too.

April 2019). http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/acrefore/9780199381135.013.8062 Summary Depictions of the underworld, in ancient Greek and Roman textual and visual sources, differ significantly from source to source, but they all draw on a common pool of traditional mythic motifs. These motifs, such as the realm of Hades and its denizens, the rivers of the underworld, the paradise of the blessed dead, and the places of punishment for the wicked, are developed and transformed through all their uses throughout the ages, depending upon the aims of the author or artist depicting the underworld. Some sources explore the relation of the world of the living to that of the dead through descriptions of the location of the underworld and the difficulties of entering it. By contrast, discussions of the regions within the underworld and existence therein often relate to ideas of afterlife as a continuation of or compensation for life in the world above.

  • HESPERIDES and HEROES: a NOTE on the THREE-FIGURE RELIEFS 77 Knife, That This Is a Moment of Dark Foreboding
    HESPERIDESAND HEROES: A NOTE ON THE THREE-FIGURERELIEFS (PLATES 11-14) flflHOUGH not a scrap of the original reliefs has been found, Thompson's attri- bution to the Altar of the Twelve Gods of the four famous three-figure reliefs known to us from Roman copies is one of the more important results of the Agora excavations for the history of Athenian sculpture in the late 5th century.1 The dating and interpretation of these reliefs is also vitally related to the history of other monu- ments of the Agora. I should like, therefore, to suggest a modification of Thompson's views on these points. Before Thompson's discovery that the dimensions of the reliefs admirably filled the spaces flanking the east and west entrances in the parapet surrounding the altar (P1. 12, b), the originals had generally been attributed to a choregic monument. This was because two of the reliefs, the Orpheus and Peliad reliefs (P1. 12, d, e), are notably tragic in their impact, including the elements of irony and reversal of fortune which we commonly associate with Attic tragedy. The two others, Herakles, Theseus and Peirithoos in the underworld (P1. 12, a, c) and Herakles in the Garden of the Hesperides (P1. 11, a-d), could also well be drawn from the subjects of tragedies performed in Athens.2 In order to interpret the last two in the same spirit as the first two, however, it was necessary to resort to the subtle language of literary interpretation rather than to the simpler language of art. No one could doubt, on looking at the Peliad with the " ' The Altar of Pity in the Athenian Agora," Hesperia, XXI, 1952, pp.

  • The Manhattan Project John Kenneth Christopher Hunt a Thesis in The
    The Manhattan Project John Kenneth Christopher Hunt A Thesis in The Department of English Presented in Partial Fulfllment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in English at Concordia University Montreal, Quebec, Canada Dr. Darren Wershler, Project Supervisor April 2017 © John Kenneth Christopher Hunt 2017 1 2 ABSTRACT The Manhattan Project is a book of lyric poetry that chronicles the discovery of nuclear energy and its subsequent use as both a weapon and a fuel source. The book is grounded in the aesthetic positionality contained in scholar Joyelle McSweeney`s concept of the `necropastoral`, a liminal zone where disparate spaces, such as the classical `urban` and `pastoral`, become blurred. The Manhattan Project examines the enduring impossibility of sufciently responding to the continuing repercussions of the nuclear age and its post-nuclear contaminants through a kind of `resurrection` of lyric meditation, further mutated by both formal constraints and conceptual frameworks. 3 TABLE OF CONTENTS I.

  • Eurydice Dramaturgy
    Purpose and Goals Eurydice Dramatur﵋: As part of a Christian institution, the Northwestern College Theatre Department values the integration of faith with artistry. We believe that all truth is God’s truth and seek to produce work that glorifies Him and points others to His truth, even if that work would not be deemed distinctly “Christian.” For our audiences, however, connecting their Christian faith to the stories they saw onstage is not always an easy feat. As the production dramaturg (literary advisor Relating Myth to Christian Audiences and researcher) for this spring’s production of Eurydice, one of my main goals was to assist in this task. While Eurydice is inspired by a deeply old myth from the Greco-Roman tradition, many of its themes are incredibly similar to ideas upheld in the Christian tradition. This presentation outlines these connections Rachel Smart by first explaining the mythos surrounding the story of Orpheus and Eurydice, then discussing Biblical parallels to this myth in the tale of the death of Lot’s wife and the harrowing of hell theology, before finally comparing and contrasting the Christian, Jewish, and Greek understandings of life after death. Orpheus and Eurydice Mythos Biblical Parallels: The Death of Lot's Wife Biblical Parallels: The Harrowing of Hell While the stories that make up the canon of Greek mythology have a The Bible contains its own story warning against looking back while in The Harrowing of Hell is a Christian doctrine of the Patristic and vast quantity of sources, the major two versions of the Orpheus myth are flight.
