Abstract The relationship between magyarization and Hungarian civil society during the reform era of Hungarian history (1790-1848) is the subject of this dissertation. This thesis examines the cultural and political activities of three liberal oppositional nobles: András Fáy (1786-1864), István Bezerédj (1796-1856) and Ödön Beöthy (1796-1854). These three men were chosen as the basis of this study because of their commitment to a two- pronged approach to politics: they advocated greater cultural magyarization in the multiethnic Hungarian Kingdom and campaigned to extend the protection of the Hungarian constitution to segments of the non-aristocratic portion of the Hungarian population. -

Philosophical Disputations at the University of Tartu – : Boundaries Of
Philosophical Disputations at the University of Tartu Õäìó–ÕßÕþ: Boundaries of a Discipline Meelis Friedenthala,c , Pärtel Piirimäe b,c aUniversity of Tartu Library bInstitute of History and Archaeology, University of Tartu c Swedish Collegium for Advanced Study e article focuses on the denitions and divisions of philosophical disciplines in the disputations presented at the University of Tartu during the rst two periods of its existence: Academia Gustaviana (Õäìó–Õä¢ä) and Academia Gustavo-Carolina (ÕäÉþ–ÕßÕþ). e classications of philosophy in Tartu are studied in the context of competing traditions of classifying knowledge and the spread of novel pedagogical methods in early modern Europe. ese trends were also reected in the univer- sity statutes that were directly borrowed from the University of Uppsala, the par- ent institution of the academy in Tartu. e article shows that a strong emphasis on Ramist methods of teaching in the Õäìó constitution and a similar prominence given to Aristotelianism in the ÕäÉ constitution aected, to some extent, the pri- orities given to certain disciplines in the faculties but did not always determine the division of responsibilities between professors nor the conceptual tools and con- tents of instruction. Keywords: history of philosophy, history of universities, classication of knowledge, Ramism, Aristotelianism, University of Tartu, early modern period Õ. Introduction: Systems of knowledge in early modern Europe In early modern European academia, new dialectical or logical methods were introduced with the aim of constructing philosophical systems to fa- cilitate the introduction of a given subject to students. Classication and denition were viewed as two of the three central purposes of logic, or as in- struments of human knowledge (next to inductio or demonstration) (Freed- man ÕÉÉÉ, ó). -

On the Religious and Cultural Aspects of Divination in Japanese Society
Audrius Beinorius On the Religious and Cultural Aspects of Divination in Japanese Society LATVIJAS UNIVERSITĀTES RAKSTI. 2016, 813. sēj. ORIENTĀLISTIKA 84.–109. lpp. https://doi.org/10.22364/luraksti.os.813.09 On the Religious and Cultural Aspects of Divination in Japanese Society Zīlēšanas reliģiskie un kultūras aspekti Japānas sabiedrībā Audrius Beinorius Vilnius University, Lithuania Center of Oriental Studies Universiteto g. 5, Vilnius 01122, Lithuania Email: [email protected] This article presents an overview of the multifaceted history of divination and astrology in Japan. The questions addressed in this paper are the following: What was the place of divina- tion in the traditional Japanese society and within ancient bodies of knowledge? What part of traditional science and cosmology does it form? What are the main methods of divination used in Japan? How was divination related to the Shinto and Buddhist worldview and reli- gious practices? What elements of Indian astrology and divination have been introduced by the Buddhist monks to Japan? And which forms of divination are of Chinese origins? Finally, which of the mantic practices are likely to persist even nowadays and why? These and similar questions are discussed, emphasizing some resumptive cross-cultural and hermeneutic meth- odological considerations. The hermeneutical examinations of those practices are significant for the comparative history of ideas and also for understanding of contemporary religious practices and beliefs. Such approach can also assist in revealing the local modes of cultural transmission of knowledge in Asia, methods of social control, and the nature of the cultural norms, that shaped the traditional epistemic field. -
