ABSTRACT In the last two decades, Cairene upper middle class residents have sought different living patterns to improve their quality of life. Since then, Cairo’s outskirts witnessed a major expansion in residential gated communities, in a way that has significantly influenced its general urban fabric. Therefore, it is necessary to examine the satisfaction of human needs within these gated communities, towards the accomplishment of more responsive living environments. To do that, the theoretical framework of this research first studies the backgrounds, classifications and evolution of these gated compounds in Egypt. The research then investigates the different theories of human needs. Residential gated compounds are consequently examined in terms of satisfying human needs, with reference to previously investigated theories. Hence, the theoretical findings are examined empirically in the context of a selected local case study to learn about the satisfaction of the human needs in the studied gated community. Towards this objective, the study employs in-depth qualitative analyses, together with a brief survey that involved 43 local residents, to investigate their perception to the satisfaction of human needs in their compound. At last, both theoretical and empirical findings are synthesized towards helping decision makers and designers in promoting better living environments, and enhancing the overall quality of life.

  • Nag Hammadi, Gnosticism and New Testament Interpretation
    Grace Theological Journal 8.2 (1987) 195-212 Copyright © 1987 by Grace Theological Seminary. Cited with permission. NAG HAMMADI, GNOSTICISM AND NEW TESTAMENT INTERPRETATION WILLIAM W. COMBS The Gnostic heresy alluded to in the NT and widely repudiated by Christian writers in the second century and after has been in- creasingly studied in the last forty years. The discovery in upper Egypt of an extensive collection of Gnostic writings on papyri trans- formed a poorly known movement in early Christianity into a well documented heresy of diverse beliefs and practices. The relationship of Gnosticism and the NT is an issue that has not been resolved by the new documents. Attempts to explain the theology of the NT as dependent on Gnostic teachings rest on ques- tionable hypotheses. The Gnostic redeemer-myth cannot be docu- mented before the second century: Thus, though the Gnostic writings provide helpful insight into the heresies growing out of Christianity, it cannot be assumed that the NT grew out of Gnostic teachings. * * * INTRODUCTION STUDENTS of the NT have generally been interested in the subject of Gnosticism because of its consistent appearance in discussions of the "Colossian heresy" and the interpretation of John's first epistle. It is felt that Gnosticism supplies the background against which these and other issues should be understood. However, some who use the terms "Gnostic" and "Gnosticism" lack a clear understanding of the movement itself. In fact, our knowledge of Gnosticism has suffered considerably from a lack of primary sources. Now, however, with the discovery of the Nag Hammadi (hereafter, NH) codices, this void is being filled.

Unit description This unit offers to students with previous knowledge of Coptic the opportunity for an in-depth study of Coptic language and literature. In the same time it provides an introduction to Coptic palaeography and epigraphy. As a matter of fact, this unit is conceived rather as a research seminar, given that the texts studied are unpublished. The students will treat the texts as editors do, i.e. they will first decipher and edit them and it is only afterwards that they will carry out the translation. Once the palaeographical, codicological, editorial, dialectal and translation issues are addressed, we will undertake the discussion of the content. This semester we will read the following literary and documentary texts: • In Apocalypsim 7-12 (P.Mor.

  • How Reliable Is the Story of the Nag Hammadi Discovery?
    Article Journal for the Study of the New Testament How Reliable is the Story of 35(4) 303 –322 © The Author(s) 2013 the Nag Hammadi Discovery? Reprints and permissions: sagepub.co.uk/journalsPermissions.nav DOI: 10.1177/0142064X13482243 jsnt.sagepub.com Mark Goodacre Duke University, USA Abstract James Robinson’s narrative of how the Nag Hammadi codices were discovered is popular and compelling, a piece of fine investigative journalism that includes intrigue and blood vengeance. But there are several different, conflicting versions of the story, including two-person (1977), seven-person (1979) and eight-person (1981) versions. Disagreements include the name of the person who first found the jar. Martin Krause and Rodolphe Kasser both questioned these stories in 1984, and their scepticism is corroborated by the Channel 4 (UK) series, The Gnostics (1987), which features Muhammad ‘Ali himself, in his only known appearance in front of camera, offering his account of the discovery. Several major points of divergence from the earlier reports raise questions about the reliability of ‘Ali’s testimony. It may be safest to conclude that the earlier account of the discovery offered by Jean Doresse in 1958 is more reliable than the later, more detailed, more vivid versions that are so frequently retold. Keywords Nag Hammadi, discovery, James Robinson, Jean Doresse, the Gnostics The ‘Canonical’ Nag Hammadi Story The story of the discovery of the Nag Hammadi codices in 1945 has attained near canonical status in scholarship of early Christianity. James Robinson’s compelling narrative of how Muhammad ‘Ali al-Samman and his brothers unearthed the jar containing the codices combines skilled investigative journal- ism with tales of intrigue and blood vengeance.1 It is a staple of introductory 1.

  • Making, Remaking and Unmaking Early 'Writing'
    “It Is Written”?: Making, remaking and unmaking early ‘writing’ in the lower Nile Valley Kathryn E. Piquette Freie Universität Berlin Introduction Analysis and interpretation of inscribed objects often focus on their written meanings and thus their status as products of completed action. Attention is less commonly directed to the ways in which past actors intermingled and transformed material substances via particular tools and embodied behaviours — the material practices which give rise to graphical expres- sion and anchor subsequent acts of symbolic meaning (re-)construction. Building on research into the materiality of early writing and related image making (see Piquette 2007; 2008), this chapter focusses on one aspect of written object ‘life histories’ — the processes of remaking and unmaking. I explore below the dynamic unfolding and reformulation of ‘writing’ and related imagery as artefact within the context of a selection of early inscribed objects from the lower Nile Valley (Figure 1). The more portable writing surfaces include over 4000 objects, including small labels, ceramic and stone vessels, stelae, seals and seal impressions, imple- ments, and personal items (Regulski 2010: 6, 242). The geographically- and temporally-related marks on fixed stone surfaces (variously referred to as ‘petroglyphs’, ‘rock art’, ‘rock inscrip- tions’ or ‘graffiti’, e.g. Redford and Redford 1989; Storemyr 2009) also constitute a crucial dataset for questions of early writing and image-making practices in north-east Africa, but fall outside the scope of this chapter. For its basis, this inquiry examines comparatively three inscribed find types: small perforated plaques or ‘labels’ of bone, ivory and wood; stone ves- sels; and stone stelae.
