Sep. 2021 Ad Maiorem Dei Gloriam An Examination ofJonathan Edwards' Account of God's Seýf-Glorification, Stephen Ralph Holmes King's College, London nry. the Degree ofDoctor -I nesis submittedfor of Philosophy 1999 cz Abstract: -, -, - Ad Maiorem Dei Gloriam: An Examination ofJonathan Edwards'Account of God's Setf-Glorification This work. seeks to explore the theological logic and the appropriatenessof Edwards' mature statement of God's purposes in creating, arguing the thesis that at a crucial point Edwards fails to let his account be sufficiently informed by Trinitarian logic derived from the gospel story. After the introductory material, the development of that mature statement is considered,through a series of Miscellanies entries, before a fuller discussion of End of Creation, in which Edwards' final position, that God created the world for His own self-glorification, is expounded. A brief series of comparisons servesto illuminate the distinctive features of Edwards' account (notably its Trinitarian grammar), and to introduce the line of questioning that is adopted. The central chapters of the thesis examine the working out of this position in Edwards' accounts of creation and redemption, indicating in passing how this theme casts light upon his theological concerns, but chiefly examining the adequacy of the basic account. The result of this is to suggestthat there is a flaw in the area of perdition, and so Edwards' writings on hell are consideredin order to refine the criticism. The thesis concludes that Edwards - failed to apply -his own'Tiinitarian grammar of glorification to his account of hell, and so suggestsan inconsistency in his theology here. This conclusion is used to explore the study of Edwards as a theologian, and also aspectsof the Reformed tradition of theology. *3 Table of Contents: Bibliography ITME PAGE I .................

S' Acknowledgments: A particular form of inflation affects the world of advertising, whereby superlatives become devalued in currency - an example that any traveller on London's tube system cannot have missed concernsmusic compilations; the issuers of 'The Best 60s Album in the World - Ever' should have realised the trouble they were storing up for themselves, and their announcementof 'The Best 60s Album in the World Ever IF was greeted with appropriate hilarity. I mention this only becausea similar form of inflation seems to have been active in Ph.D. stu&nts' acknowledgements to their supervisors. To merely thank Dr X or Professor Y might today be in danger'of suggesting barely-concealed antipathy; to reach for words that express a sense of a happier and more fruitful relationship than most would result in phrasesthat, to my English ears at least, would sound over-effusive in the extreme. When, therefore, I say that my time and my relationship with Professor Colin Gunton have been very happy, that I greatly value his friendship, and that the manner of his supervision and the quality of his advice have contributed substantially to whatever value may be found in this thesis, I can only ask that the words are not discounted, but taken in their natural sense. I am also greatly indebted to the Revd Dr John E. Colwell. John was formerly my tutor at SpurgeonsCollege, and first introduced me to the works of JonathanEdwards. I have been teaching at Spurgeons

  • William Cave (1637-1713) and the Fortunes of Historia Literaria in England
    WILLIAM CAVE (1637-1713) AND THE FORTUNES OF HISTORIA LITERARIA IN ENGLAND ALEXANDER ROBERT WRIGHT Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge This dissertation is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, December 2017 Faculty of English Abstract WILLIAM CAVE (1637-1713) AND THE FORTUNES OF HISTORIA LITERARIA IN ENGLAND Alexander Robert Wright This thesis is the first full-length study of the English clergyman and historian William Cave (1637-1713). As one of a number of Restoration divines invested in exploring the lives and writings of the early Christians, Cave has nonetheless won only meagre interest from early- modernists in the past decade. Among his contemporaries and well into the nineteenth century Cave’s vernacular biographies of the Apostles and Church Fathers were widely read, but it was with the two volumes of his Scriptorum Ecclesiasticorum Historia Literaria (1688 and 1698), his life’s work, that he made his most important and lasting contribution to scholarship. The first aim of the thesis is therefore to build on a recent quickening of research into the innovative early-modern genre of historia literaria by exploring how, why, and with what help, in the context of late seventeenth-century European intellectual culture, Cave decided to write a work of literary history. To do so it makes extensive use of the handwritten drafts, annotations, notebooks, and letters that he left behind, giving a comprehensive account of his reading and scholarly practices from his student-days in 1650s Cambridge and then as a young clergyman in the 1660s to his final, unsuccessful attempts to publish a revised edition of his book at the end of his life.

COTTON MATHER’S RELATIONSHIP TO SCIENCE by JAMES DANIEL HUDSON Under the Direction of Dr. Reiner Smolinski ABSTRACT The subject of this project is Cotton Mather’s relationship to science. As a minister, Mather’s desire to harmonize science with religion is an excellent medium for understanding the effects of the early Enlightenment upon traditional views of Scripture. Through “Biblia Americana” and The Christian Philosopher, I evaluate Mather’s effort to relate Newtonian science to the six creative days as recorded in Genesis 1. Chapter One evaluates Mather’s support for the scientific theories of Isaac Newton and his reception to natural philosophers who advocate Newton’s theories. Chapter Two highlights Mather’s treatment of the dominant cosmogonies preceding Isaac Newton. The Conclusion returns the reader to Mather’s principal occupation as a minister and the limits of science as informed by his theological mind. Through an exploration of Cotton Mather’s views on science, a more comprehensive understanding of this significant early American and the ideological assumptions shaping his place in American history is realized.

  • Wyclef Jean at the International Balloon Festival
    PRESS RELEASE Embargoed till March 30, 2017 6:00 AM WYCLEF JEAN AT THE INTERNATIONAL BALLOON FESTIVAL SAINT-JEAN-SUR-RICHELIEU, March 30, 2017 – The International Balloon Festival of Saint-Jean-Sur-Richelieu is proud to announce the presence of Wyclef Jean for its 34th Edition. The worldwide superstar Wyclef Jean will be performing on the Loto-Québec stage on Saturday August 12th, to the greatest pleasure of his fans, as well as the supporters of his 90’s Hip Hop group The Fugees. It is clear that Wyclef Jean will have the whole crowd dancing to his many hits, such as «Sweetest girl» and «Divine Sorrow», without mentioning the titles from his most recent album J’Ouvert, including «I Swear», out last February. With influences from jazz to classic rock to reggae, Wyclef Jean knows how to reinvent himself while offering eclectic music. Sometimes pop, sometimes Latin, his creative and adventurous music was often rewarded, as reflected by his three Grammy Awards. His six solo albums sold close to nine million copies throughout the world. The signer-songwriter and producer is also behind numerous worldwide hits interpreted by many other artists including Shakira, Carlos Santana, Whitney Houston and Destiny’s Child. Since this past November, the electro-acoustic ballad «Divine Sorrow», achieved in collaboration with Avicii, is a great success. With over nine million vues on Youtube, this song reminds the public how Wyclef Jean will never cease to create music and will keep on surprising his fans. His last album J’Ouvert is a great example, and can only keep building his fans’ excitement towards his upcomming album Carnival III coming this summer.

    Copyright by David Andrew Harper 2012 The Dissertation Committee for David Andrew Harper Certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Curb’d Enthusiasms: Critical Interventions in the Reception of Paradise Lost, 1667-1732 Committee: John Rumrich, Supervisor Lance Bertelsen Douglas Bruster Jack Lynch Leah Marcus Curb’d Enthusiasms: Critical Interventions in the Reception of Paradise Lost, 1667-1732 by David Andrew Harper, B.A.; M.A. Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Texas at Austin December, 2012 Curb’d Enthusiasms: Critical Interventions in the Reception of Paradise Lost, 1667-1732 David Andrew Harper, Ph.D. The University of Texas at Austin, 2012 Supervisor: John Rumrich Although recent critics have attempted to push the canonization of Paradise Lost ever further into the past, the early reception of Milton’s great poem should be treated as a process rather than as an event inaugurated by the pronouncement of a poet laureate or lord. Inevitably linked to Milton’s Restoration reputation as spokesman for the Protectorate and regicides, Paradise Lost’s reception in the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries is marked by a series of approaches and retreats, repressions and recoveries. This dissertation examines the critical interventions made by P.H. (traditionally identified as Patrick Hume), John Dennis, Joseph Addison, and Richard Bentley into the reception history of a poem burdened by political and religious baggage. It seeks to illuminate the manner in which these earliest commentators sought to separate Milton’s politics from his poem, rendering the poem “safe” by removing it from contemporary political discourse.

Bringing together original historical research on the radical press and close readings of Yiddish avant-garde poetry by Moyshe-Leyb Halpern, Peretz Markish, Yankev Glatshteyn, and others, I show that the development of anarchist modernism was both a transnational literary trend and a complex worldview. My research draws from hitherto unread material in international archives to document the world of the Yiddish anarchist press and assess the scope of its literary influence. The dissertation’s theoretical framework is informed by diaspora studies, gender studies, and translation theory, to which I introduce anarchist diasporism as a new term.

  • Avicii Den Mest Populära Låtskrivaren 2015
    Ny statistik: Avicii den mest populära låtskrivaren 2015 När branschorganisationen Musikförläggarna sammanfattar vilka låtskrivare som låg bakom de mest spelade och köpta låtarna i Sverige förra året är det låtskrivaren, producenten och artisten Tim ”Avicii” Bergling (Sony/ATV Music Publishing Scandinavia) som toppar listan. Av de 100 mest populära låtarna i Sverige 2015 låg Avicii bakom inte mindre än sex stycken. På andra plats hittar vi låtskrivarna Salem Al Fakir och Vincent Pontare (Universal Music Publishing) med fyra låtar. – Det är såklart det bästa som finns för en musiker att låtarna uppskattas så att de spelas mycket. Det ger både uppmuntran och bekräftelse till att fortsätta och att anstränga sig ännu mer, säger Tim ”Avicii” Bergling. Gemensamt för i stort sett alla låtskrivare på listan är att de skriver sin musik ihop med andra (så kallade ”co-writes”) – något som snarare är en regel än ett undantag i dagens musikskapande, i synnerhet när det gäller musiken på topplistorna. Enligt en undersökning som nyligen presenterades av Music Business Worldwide så var det förra året endast två av trettio av världens största låtar som var skrivna av enskilda personer. I Sverige ser vi ett liknande mönster, förra året skrevs till exempel 93 av de 100 mest populära låtarna i samarbete mellan olika låtskrivare. På frågan om det är viktigt att skriva tillsammans med andra idag svarar Avicii: – Ja. Det roligaste för mig är att jag får skriva med dels andra artister jag ser upp till, men även musiker och låtskrivare från andra genrer som inte alltid vore väntade samarbeten. Det blir extra spännande att se vad man får till.
