At the present time, there exist eight “superpower” states or groups of states in the world. Six of the superpowers are in Eurasia: the European Union, Israel, Russia, China, India and Japan. Only two superpowers-the United States and Brazil-are outside of Eurasia. Eurasia is the center of our planet: seventy-five percent of the world’s population and most valuable minerals are found hear; it is probable birth place of civilization as well as worlds main religious; it has seen full development of mankind,s social evolution, from primitive treble system to liberal democracy. The mythic Garden of Eden was located in Eurasia, home to the first man and woman, Adam and Eve. In Eurasia was the beginning, and Eurasia may be the end. The most motivated and dynamic nations on the planet have existed in Eurasia, including China whose inhabitant make up twenty- one percent of world population, and India, whose inhabitant make up sixteen percent of the world population. Eurasia also home to the world’s largest country, Russia, although its inhabitants make up only 2,2 percent of world population, and at last Eurasia is homeland to the Israel, which have been playing central role in world history. A remarkable historical trace has been left in Eurasia history by Assyrians, the Persians, the Greeks, the Romans, the Huns, the Arabians, the Turks, the Germans, the French, the British, the Spanish, the Portuguese, the Japanese, the Indians, the Jewish, the Russians, and many other nations. For everyone of these remarkable peoples, Eurasia was their homeland. Every one of these nations has been conquerors of other nations, and has aspired to conquer the world. Although these peoples may have been defeated ultimately in their aspiration, they left their mark, and several still exist today among the most advanced, progressive and high-developed of nations. 5 Eurasia had been the birthplace of the greatest and most far- reaching Maritime and Continental Empires. Emporium is a Latin word meaning rules, or command; this notion is as old as history itself, which has consisted mainly of wars and pillaging. Throughout the long history of nations, they have either been conquered by other nation, or on the contrary, they themselves have conquered other nations. These events have happened many times over, in different variations. There may not have been nation that has existed that did not love holding command, giving orders, the fight for sphere of influence, conquering, giving favor for his inhabitants, teaching other nations how to live. Among these nations there was one that stood out, whose success has not been second. During sometimes they have been leader and others can’t do this. Empires and unions of nations have arise and disappeared in every continent, but-previous to modern times-only in Eurasia have empires at the superpower level existed. Empires in Eurasia had vast territories and were usually spread over at list two continents. One of the most prominent empire in world history was Roman Empire. This empire was created by group of people who were initially conquered by neighboring people. These neighbors have been lost in history-no one remember them except specialists-but the Romans have stayed with us. First Romans had shown phenomenal spirit stronghold and engineering. They made the impossible, and become best, chosen nation, and even today we still feel the impulse of the great Roman soul. Romans captured Southern Europe, the western part of Asia, and North Africa. They chose not to target India, China or Central Asia, but limited their domination to the Mediterranean. Within their territory, the Romans created unprecedented system of roads, trade directions and communications, including a postal serves and network of hotels. Mediterranean Sea was Roman Empire inside sea with comfortable ports-cities and shipping within go on by timetable. Great Rome, with its high level of culture and military might, ruled about fifty million people, made a famous constitution, and created the title of citizen. Citizenship in the Roman Empire was guarantee of inviolability, immunity, and respect for personality. In many ways, citizenship in the Roman Empire was similar to the modern-day status of citizen of the United States of America. 6 Rome had trade relation with Eastern and Far Eastern countries, includes China, and made use of the Great Silk Road. The creation and blossoming of the Roman Empire took place about same time as the Han dynasty was flourishing in China. Modern-day Chinese name come from this great dynasty: it was a golden age in the developing of culture, and one of great economic prosperity, for China. Its capital was the largest and wealthiest city in the world. China’s famous bureaucratic system and civil law was established at that time. Confucian philosophy of government and administration in relation to population was consolidated then, and shaped the Chinese way of life. The Chinese administration promoted political expansion and trade, exporting silver, ceramic and large war horses. This breed of horses becomes symbol of Han China. The Chinese would have known about the Roman Empire, its might and wealth. Chinese geographers have know configuration of whole Eurasia continent and location of their Empire. In his zenith in Han dynasty China lived about forty million inhabitants. The Empire had great power and much experience in ruling. Some specialists think that if Han dynasty decided to conquer all of Eurasia, they may very well have succeeded. The Chinese thought that they were center of a “Heavenly Empire,” and had no intention of conquering everyone under the sky: they limited their activity to trade. Despite their large reach, neither Rome, nor the Han dynasty China, was superpower whose goal was to conquer the world. The first superpower of this kind was the Mongols, who occupied three-fourth of Eurasia. Their leader Genghis Khan, declared he should be conqueror of the world. He and his descendents ruled most of the known world, include China. Genghis Khan’s grandson Kublai Khan, establish China’s new Yuan dynasty, a brilliant period in China’s history. Early have thoughts that Mongols beginning conquer the world because in their country was bad climate. The people who live their looking food outside of Mongolia and become nomadic. Last times scientific research show opposite repercussion. Really in thirteenth centuries Mongolia have excellent climate and people feeding very good, appropriate Mongols feeding their hours more better than other countries and because of this Mongols cavalry become, strongest, fastest and very mobile at that time. The Mongol Empire was in many ways a unique empire. They 7 did not give the world new technological achievements, but they give the world something more important: they brought nations closer together. The Mongols built bridges and roads; people began studying foreign languages; European miners worked in China, and Chines doctors appeared in Europe. Mongols establish a post office system, and improve communications between hotels. They had high level military innovation: they conquered the world with one hundred thousand fighters. The Mongol Empire was the first world Empire who had ideological aspiration-conquer every corner of our planet. In large degree it was a Sino-Mongol combine empire. After some centuries, the descendents of the Sino-Mongol Empire created the Sino-Soviet Empire, which peaked in the mid-twentieth century. This Empire existed for ten years, and then ceased being. The first half of this Union- China-continuous to the present day. The second half-the Soviet union- ceased to exist after seventy years. The Roman Empire was a Maritime Empire surrounding the Mediterranean Sea. The Han and subsequent dynasties in China, as well as the Russia-Soviet Empires, were Continental Empires. Eurasia has been the location of two dozen Maritime and Continental Empires: the Macedonian, Parthia,

Gabrielli All rights reserved 2014 iii ABSTRACT SOLIDARITY MEDIATION IN THE FRENCH STREAM OF MYSTICAL BODY OF CHRIST THEOLOGY Name: Gabrielli, Timothy R. University of Dayton Advisor: William L. Portier, Ph.D. In its analysis of mystical body of Christ theology in the twentieth century, this dissertation identifies three major streams of mystical body theology operative in the early part of the century: the Roman, the German-Romantic, and the French-Social- Liturgical. Delineating these three streams of mystical body theology sheds light on the diversity of scholarly positions concerning the heritage of mystical body theology, on its mid twentieth-century recession, as well as on Pope Pius XII’s 1943 encyclical, Mystici Corporis Christi, which enshrined “mystical body of Christ” in Catholic magisterial teaching. Further, it links the work of Virgil Michel and Louis-Marie Chauvet, two scholars remote from each other on several fronts, in the long, winding French stream.

  • An Etymological Study of Mythical Lakes in Iranian "Bundahišn"
    Advances in Language and Literary Studies ISSN: 2203-4714 Vol. 6 No. 6; December 2015 Australian International Academic Centre, Australia Flourishing Creativity & Literacy An Etymological Study of Mythical Lakes in Iranian Bundahišn Hossein Najari (Corresponding author) Shiraz University, Eram Square, Shiraz, Iran E-mail: [email protected] Zahra Mahjoub Shiraz University, Shiraz, Iran E-mail: [email protected] Doi:10.7575/aiac.alls.v.6n.6p.174 Received: 30/07/2015 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.7575/aiac.alls.v.6n.6p.174 Accepted: 02/10/2015 Abstract One of the myth-making phenomena is lake, which has often a counterpart in reality. Regarding the possible limits of mythological lakes of Iranian Bundahišn, sometimes their place can be found in natural geography. Iranian Bundahišn, as one of the great works of Middle Persian (Pahlavi) language, contains a large number of mythological geography names. This paper focuses on the mythical lakes of Iranian Bundahišn. Some of the mythical lakes are nominally comparable to the present lakes, but are geographically located in different places. Yet, in the present research attempt is made to match the mythical lakes of Iranian Bundahišn with natural lakes. Furthermore, they are studied in the light of etymological and mythological principles. The study indicates that mythical lakes are often both located in south and along the "Frāxkard Sea" and sometimes they correspond with the natural geography, according to the existing mythological points and current characteristics of the lakes. Keywords: mythological geography, Bundahišn, lake, Iranian studies, Middle Persian 1. Introduction Discovering the geographical location of mythical places in our present-day world is one of the most noteworthy matters for mythologists.
