Myth as a primary literary Online phenomenon, with some attention to anthropological and psychological perspectives. TBA Literature Across Borders: Music and Literature – This course is an introduction to the field of Comparative Literature, and is required of all majors and minors. “Literature Across Borders” illustrates the concept and 195:201 practice of comparative literature across historical periods, cultures, and genres. For the Spring 2018 semester 01, 02, 03 we will engage with the topic of “Music and Literature” by looking at musical motifs in literary works, and MH2 (01) literary motifs in musical works. Among our many possible questions: does music as music tell stories, and if 9:50-11:10am M2H3 (02) so, how does musical story-telling compare to literary fiction? Is music a language? Does it make sense to name 9:50-11:10am sound patterns musical “sentences”? Can poetry be described as musical? A work of music as poetic? In the 11:30-12:50pm wake of Bob Dylan’s Nobel Prize for Literature: are song writers poets? Is classical music history? How about M2H4 (03) the literary canon? What makes a musical piece classical and what does this teach us about canonization 9:50-11:10am generally? Do novels have rhythms? Do they have a music? Is the opera novelistic, the novel operatic? What 1:10-2:30pm does music as medium teach us about “language" as medium? Our primary materials will consist of poetry, E. Efe music, films, musical plays and operas, novellas and short stories from a variety of cultural traditions – English, CAC Italian, French, Turkish, Arabic, Russian, German, Indian, American, Japanese, among others. Each week a different distinguished scholar of Comparative Literature and/or Music, from Rutgers and elsewhere, will lecture and/or perform in class, challenging us to think in new ways about literature's relations with music. Assessments will take the form of weekly responses, a midterm and a final paper. Fulfills SAS Core Requirements AHo and AHp. Grading and Requirements: Weekly responses and participation (%30); midterm (%30); final paper (%40). The Global Ecological Imagination – The mainstream media and popular culture represent indigenous and 195:220 aboriginal communities as models for re-imagining our own relationship with nature. Nevertheless, these stories 01,02,H1 can’t help but to be melancholic: the damages brought by modernization seem to be unstoppable; progress is MH2T4 (01) always desirable even if it disappoints us; and indigenous and aboriginal cultures apparently have no choice but 9:50-11:10am to adapt or to protect their way of life by heroic means. In this course we will explore this conundrum from 1:10-2:30pm below. How are indigenous/aboriginal peoples impacted by planetary and local environmental changes? How MH2T5 (02) are they reacting to them? And how are their lives changed by their own responses and activism? We will focus 9:50-11:10am on feature films, documentaries, fictions, and testimonies produced by indigenous or aboriginal intellectuals, or 2:50-4:10pm by authors in close collaboration with such communities. Their stories take place in Bolivia, Brazil, Ecuador, MH2T3 (H1) Haiti, India, New Zealand, Nigeria, Peru, and South Africa. We will learn about the conflict but also the 9:50-11:10am 11:30-12:50pm confluence between traditional aboriginal and indigenous beliefs of the human and the nonhuman, on the one Marcone hand, and modern economic development, scientific knowledge, and Western environmentalism, on the other.

Introduction to the Literatures of South Asia - South Asia as a region includes the Republic of India; the two 195:243:01 modern nations that were formerly part of British India: Pakistan and Bangladesh; Sri Lanka; Nepal; and the TH6 Maldives. A single course could never hope to cover the literatures of all of these nations, and this course will 4:30-5:50pm concentrate only on India, with some attention to Pakistan.

IOO INTRODUCTION HE business of literature is the presentation Tof life, all true literature resolves itself into that. No presentation of life is complete without its sins, and every master of literary art has known it, from the poet King of Israel to Robert Browning. The imagination of the Middle Ages, in many ways more virile and expansive than our own, had a strong grasp of this fact, and realised that it is the sense of fault or error that lies at the root of every forward movement, that there is no real progress unless it is accompanied by a sense of sin.

  • The Sin of Suicide by Jack W
    The Sin of Suicide by Jack W. Hayford Text: Matt. 16:21-26; John 12:20-36; Heb. 10:26-30 In this teaching, we will take a biblical look at both the comforting truth and the demanding truth that calls us to discipleship. Please open your Bible with me to Matthew 16:21. It is here that Jesus declares His high purpose for His Church. Then, having declared the triumph that His Church would experience, He goes on in a further discourse with his disciples to explain that the price of that would be the giving of His life. That offended Peter’s taste, and he speaks what perhaps you or I might have been tempted to say on that occasion. In the wake of those remarks, Jesus speaks some highly important words, which are relevant to the crux of what I have to say in this teaching. Before going any further, please read the text in Matthew 16:21-26, and put a bookmark there. Next, please read John 12:20-36. The sin of suicide The selection of the title of this message was a very difficult one. It was difficult to select words that would sufficiently state what I felt most needed to be said in so brief a statement as a title allows. But it is a general rule of preaching that if what you have to say can’t be effectively set forth in a sensible title, then you are not clear about what you want to say. And what I want to talk about is the sin of suicide.

  • Through the Eye of the Dragon: an Examination of the Artistic Patronage of Pope Gregory XIII (1572-1585)
    Through the eye of the Dragon: An Examination of the Artistic Patronage of Pope Gregory XIII (1572-1585). Vol.1 Title of Degree: PhD Date of Submission: August 2019 Name: Jacqueline Christine Carey I declare that this thesis has not been submitted as an exercise for a degree at this or any other University and it is entirely my own work. I agree to deposit this thesis in the University’s open access institutional repository or allow the library to do so on my behalf, subject to Irish Copyright Legislation and Trinity College Library conditions of use and acknowledgement. For Sadie and Lilly Summary This subject of this thesis is the artistic patronage of Pope Gregory XIII (1572-1585). It examines the contribution of the individual patron to his patronage with a view to providing a more intense reading of his artistic programmes. This approach is derived from the individual interests, influences, and ambitions of Gregory XIII. It contrasts with periodization approaches that employ ‘Counter Reformation’ ideas to interpret his patronage. This thesis uses archival materials, contemporaneous primary sources, modern specialist literature, and multi-disciplinary sources in combination with a visual and iconographic analysis of Gregory XIII’s artistic programmes to develop and understanding of its subject. Chapter one examines the efficacy and impact of employing a ‘Counter-Reformation’ approach to interpret Gregory XIII’s artistic patronage. It finds this approach to be too general, ill defined, and reductionist to provide an intense reading of his artistic programmes. Chapter two explores the antecedent influences that determined Gregory XIII’s approach to his papal patronage and an overview of this patronage.

  • II Dante, Purgatorio, II, 7 the Above Quotation Opens Run to The
    II Jack Kelly, GIVlNG UP EVERYTHING Run to the mountain; Shed those scales on your eyes That hinder you from seeing God. Dante, Purgatorio, II, 7 The above quotation opens Run to the Mountain: The Story ofa Vocation, Volume One of the Journals of Thomas Merton. And it tells in just a few words the story that emerges as we wander through the pages of this new and revealing book of Merton's thoughts and musings during his pre-monastery years. We 're with him when he lives on Perry Street in New York; we travel with him during his Cuban adventure; and we join him on the Erie Lackawanna Railroad to Olean where he taught at St. Bonaventure University. 1 read The Seven Storey Mountain when l was a teenager. l remember telling someone that I had not committed a sin since. My jocular comment gave me a spirited sense of self-aggrandizement. Then I forgot about Merton. As the years went by, l dipped into his latest works, but found them too "spiritual" or too "holy." I did not share his zeal for God. Catholicism was a club I'd resigned from in my twenties. I respected j his choice but by being raised Catholic I felt and saw .I the narrow and provincial attitudes it provoked in me and my contemporaries. "If Jesus were to return today, JACK KELLY (CENTER) he wouldn't be welcome in the Catholic Church," one with Robert Lax & Marcia Kelly 12 elderly Episcopal priest pointed out to me. "There's nothing wrong with Christianity," he continued, "It's just that it's never been tried!" I didn't disagree.

  • Envy, Comparison Costs, and the Economic Theory of the Firm Jack A
    Strategic Management Journal Strat. Mgmt. J. (2008) Published online in Wiley InterScience (www.interscience.wiley.com) DOI: 10.1002/smj.718 Received 22 March 2006; Final revision received 16 May 2008 ENVY, COMPARISON COSTS, AND THE ECONOMIC THEORY OF THE FIRM JACK A. NICKERSON* and TODD R. ZENGER Olin Business School, Washington University, St. Louis, Missouri, U.S.A. An economic theory of the firm must explain both when firms supplant markets and when markets supplant firms. While theories of when markets fail are well developed, the extant literature provides a less than adequate explanation of why and when hierarchies fail and of actions managers take to mitigate such failure. In this article, we seek to develop a more complete theory of the firm by theorizing about the causes and consequences of organizational failure. Our theory focuses on the concept of social comparison costs that arise through social comparison processes and envy. While transaction costs in the market provide an impetus to move activities inside the boundaries of the firm, we argue that envy and resulting social comparison costs motivate moving activities outside the boundary of the firm. More specifically, our theory provides an explanation for ‘managerial’ diseconomies of both scale and scope—arguments that are independent from traditional measurement, rent seeking, and competency arguments—that provides new insights into the theory of the firm. In our theory, hierarchies fail as they expand in scale because social comparison costs imposed on firms escalate and hinder the capacity of managers to optimally structure incentives and production. Further, hierarchy fails as a firm expands in scope for the simple reason that the costs of differentially structuring compensation within the firm to match the increasing diversity of activities also rises with increasing scope.

  • Divine Comedy Purgatorio a Performance of Physical Visual Theatre and Poetry
    Divine Comedy Purgatorio A performance of Physical Visual Theatre and Poetry Production: Jack and Joe Theatre with the support of Tuscany Region (2011) In collaboration with: Festival di Segesta, La Città del Teatro di Cascina, Comune di San Casciano V.P. e circuito dei Teatri di Pietra Idea and directing: Adriano Miliani Actors: Adriano Miliani, Sergio Licatalosi, Tiziana Scrocca e Luca Stetur Original Soundtrack: M° Massimo Barsotti Set design: Adriano Miliani, Mirella Lampertico e Riccardo Macinai Sound design: Matteo Ciardi Sound and light: Marco Falai e Tommaso Checcucci Video: Tommaso Branconi Organizzazione: Mirella Lampertico Since 1300 Divine Comedy has been a part of our culture, beloved everywhere, it has been able to go beyond its time and to live in eternity. Starting from the end of Inferno going on through to the Purgatorio, the show takes this less well-known cantica as its inspiration. Dante and Virgilio walk inside a set made of air, almost impalpable. Blowing up and deflating itself it changes, in continuous movement, shapes and colours dancing, following the two protagonists during their journey. The main thread of such a modern and multi varied language performance is the original Dante’s text. A Comedy (ours!), Divine (the one of the poet!) A fantastical journey through the Purgatorio, a place comparable to our earthly life, suspended between good and evil, staggering between value and cowardice, modesty and vanity, where all the protagonists will be judged according to their faults (in an age of corruptions and loss of values). DIRECTOR’S NOTES: Ah servile Italy, grief’s hostelry! A ship without a pilot in a great tempest! No lady thou of Provinces, but brothel.

The essence of sin, evil, and unrighteousness 1. Not defined by our behavior; it is defined by the inner orientation of our being: hence, at essence, it is not what we do, but who we are 2. At its essence, it is not our orientation toward others, nor toward ourselves, nor toward created reality; at its essence, it is our orientation toward OUR CREATOR a. Sin (evil, unrighteousness) is a rejection of and hostility toward God: it can manifest itself in anything from an out-and-out hatred of God to a benign neglect of and indifference toward God b. Sin is a hostility toward God that manifests itself in a hostility toward everything that is connected with God i. hostility to his values and priorities (A) hostility to goodness (B) hostility to truth… etc. ii. hostility to his sovereign rule (A) hostility to his purposes (B) hostility to his promises (C) hostility to his providence…etc. 3. At essence, sin describes our orientation of hostility toward our creator; but it is reflected, as well, in our wrong orientation toward others, toward ourselves, toward truth, toward goodness, and toward created reality a. Accordingly not every manifestation of sin “victimizes” another human being (to blaspheme God, to not love truth, to act self-destructively at no one else’s expense, etc.) page 1 REFORMATION FELLOWSHIP “Notes on the New Testament Understanding of Sin” J.A. “Jack” Crabtree June, 2009 i.

Ah me! how hard a thing it is to say What was this forest savage, rough, and stern, Which in the very thought renews the fear. So bitter is it, death is little more; But of the good to treat, which there I found, Speak will I of the other things I saw there. (Inf. I) Finding himself lost in a gloomy forest at the start of Dante’s The Divine Comedy, the Pilgrim is heartened when he sees the sun and believes that he has found an escape route, only to be thwarted by a panther, a lion and a she-wolf who impede his path. As a result, he ‘must begin by descending into an understanding of the evil in which he has become unconsciously entrapped before he will be free for the ascent’ (Royal 1999: 41). In Inferno, which is the first part of his epic journey into a landscape of sin and redemption, Dante presents a vision of human existence in which ‘Hell abides both in the afterlife and on Earth.

Over four hundred years later, Dante's sexual ideology would evolve into misanthropy and misogyny in T.S.
