The symbol for Mark the Evangelist is a winged lion. The lion is an ancient symbol for royalty, It is often displayedon the coat of ams for a king and is a Hebrew symbol for David, the great King of tbe United Kirgdom of Israel. The gold lion with wings indicatesthat Ma* told of the loyal dignity of Chdst. Tho symbol for Luke the Evangelist,writer of the third Gospel,is I gold ox with wings. The ox was an animal of sacrifice in alcient times. In the Gosoelof Luke. t]te idea of Jesus'life as a sacrificc for thi sins of humaoityis said to be the primary theme. The fourth Evangelistis John, whose syhbol is a winged eagle.The eagle,whose eyes can seotiny speckson the horizon,is said to be ableto se€irto the mysteriesof heayen.This Gosp€lrcvea.ls the divinity of Christ and gives the readera glimpse into the Khgdom ofGod.

    Sermon, January 3, 2016 2 Christmas Jeremiah 31:7-14, Psalm 84, Ephesians 1:3-6, 15-19, Matthew 2:1-12 By The Rev. Dr. Kim McNamara As I was taking down and putting away our Christmas decorations on New Year’s Day, my dear husband, John, teased me just a bit about my ritualistic behavior. In many ways, he is right. Christmas, for me, is guided by traditional rituals and symbols. Because I live a very busy life and work in an academic setting divided up into quarterly cycles, the rituals I have marked on the calendar help me to make sure I do everything I want to do in the short amount of time I have to do it in. Along with the rituals, the symbols serve as mental touchstones for me; focusing my attention, my thoughts, my reflections, my memories, and my prayers, on the many meanings of Christmas. My own Christmas rituals start in Advent with two traditional symbols of Christmas, the advent wreath and the nativity. On my birthday, which is exactly two weeks before Christmas, I buy a Christmas tree. (I am not sure what the symbolism is, but it sure is pretty.) As I grade final exams and projects for my students, I reward myself for getting through piles and hours of grading by taking breaks every now and then to decorate for Christmas. According to my ritual schedule, grades and Christmas decorations have to be completed by December 18. I then have two weeks to savor and reflect upon the wonder, beauty, and love of Christmas.

  • The Neonian Baptistery in Ravenna 359
    Ritual and ReconstructedMeaning: The Neonian Baptisteryin Ravenna Annabel Jane Wharton The pre-modern work of art, which gained authority through its extension in ritual action, could function as a social integrator. This essay investigates the figural decoration of the Orthodox Baptistery in Ravenna, in an effort to explain certain features of the mosaic program. If the initiation ritual is reenacted and the civic centrality of the rite and its executant, the bishop, is restored, the apparent "icon- ographic mistakes" in the mosaics reveal themselves as signs of the mimetic re- sponsiveness of the icon. By acknowledging their unmediated character, it may be possible to re-empower both pre-modern images and our own interpretative strategy. The Neonian (or "Orthodox") Baptistery in Ravenna is the preciated, despite the sizable secondary literature generated most impressive baptistery to survive from the Early Chris- by the monument.

Michel!Tournier,!Anatole!France!&!Genesis 1 By Vladimir Tumanov Western University Abstract: This article deals with Michel Tournier as a writer of hypertexts. The first chapter of Gaspard, Melchior et Balthazar is considered with respect to two possible unmarked hypotextual connections. The first is a short story by Anatole France entitled “Balthasar,” and the Song of Songs is the key element that connects France's and Tournier's texts. The second is an episode from Genesis which I term The Sister- Wife Hoax. The main concern in this study is the issue of human dignity as it relates to race and sexuality.* 1 Published article here: http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1600- 0730.1999.tb00288.x/abstract;jsessionid=170252514209CDD302FF5ADB79F3046E.f01t01 *I want to thank Lorna Milne, Anthony Purdy and Larissa Tumanov for all their help and advice. Black and White Vladimir Tumanov Orbis Litterarum 54 (4): 301-314. 3 Introduction: Hypertextuality Gérard Genette begins his discussion of hypertextuality with two major requirements: “La dérivation de l’hypotexte à l’hypertexte est à la fois massive (toute une œuvre B dérivant de toute une œuvre A) et déclarée, d’une manière plus ou moins officielle” (16). However, in his discussion of various hypertextual genres, Genette admits that the idea of a “dérivation déclarée” is too restrictive.

Since their inception, the Aircraft Non-Payment Insurance (“ANPI”) product has been used by many airlines, leasing companies and other market participants as an alternative source of finance for new aircraft beyond the traditional sources of aviation finance, including financings supported by the European Export Credit Agencies and the Export-Import Bank of the United States. However, despite becoming more prevalent and even with the recent notable closings of aircraft financings supported by the ANPI product, many aviation market participants still seem unsure what these ANPI products are or how they work. The ANPI product is a similar concept to export credit support that provides an insurance policy (rather than a guarantee) to lenders, who rely on the credit of the insurers underlying the ANPI product. At its core, the ANPI product protects investors from payment defaults by obligors (namely, customers Vedder Price Is Recognized in predominantly made up of airlines and leasing companies, who for the purposes of this note, shall be Multiple Top Deal Awards at Airline referred to as the “Customer”).

You know, I think I am hard pressed to think of characters in scripture who makes such a brief cameo, but who have inspired more imagination and folklore than our beloved magi. We've given them a starring role in our manger scenes, in our Christmas pageants, and in our creches, including our very own festival of gifts where we placed them right in front alongside the sheep and the shepherds and the manger, even though they were never mentioned in Luke's Nativity story at all. We've turned them into kings, though Matthew never mentions such a title. We've even decided there were only three of them because they gave three types of gifts. We've even given them names. Melchior, Caspar, and Balthazar are really cool names. We've spun tales about the different countries they've come from; Persia, India, Babylonia, though Matthew merely says they're from the East. What's more, there are plenty of biblical scholars who would argue that Matthew's account, even after we strip it of all of these myths we've added, is itself very likely apocryphal. In their view, Matthew is an evangelist, not a historian, and he is far less interested in an accurate accounting of the facts than he is in converting skeptical Jews by presenting Jesus as the new Moses.
