This study aims to present a possibility of understanding on this topic, from the perspectives of some teachers who teach in interdisciplinary degrees. For that, the Free Word Association Test (TALP) was applied and semi- structured interviews were conducted with them. The corpus was organized in Word, Wordle and Iramuteq and evaluated according to Bardin's Content Analysis. The results of this study corroborate and, at the same time, ratify the idea of interdisciplinarity as pluriconceptual and polysemic, covering from the simple to the most complex way of understanding the hyperdynamic structure of knowledge, in which we are faced with several possibilities of interpretation, understanding and practices they point, above all, to the subjects' attitudes, as evidenced by the basic literature about this theme.

The Architecture of Joseph Michael Gandy (1771-1843) and Sir John Soane (1753-1837): An Exploration Into the Masonic and Occult Imagination of the Late Enlightenment Abstract In examining select works of English architects Joseph Michael Gandy and Sir John Soane, this dissertation is intended to bring to light several important parallels between architectural theory and freemasonry during the late Enlightenment. Both architects developed architectural theories regarding the universal origins of architecture in an attempt to establish order as well as transcend the emerging historicism of the early nineteenth century. There are strong parallels between Soane's use of architectural narrative and his discussion of architectural 'model' in relation to Gandy's understanding of 'trans-historical' architecture. The primary textual sources discussed in this thesis include Soane's Lectures on Architecture, delivered at the Royal Academy from 1809 to 1836, and Gandy's unpublished treatise entitled the Art, Philosophy, and Science of Architecture, circa 1826.

    A Neglected Argument for the Reality of God - Wikisource 9/2/10 5:08 PM A Neglected Argument for the Reality of God From Wikisource A Neglected Argument for the Reality of God by Charles Sanders Peirce 1908 [Footnote and links not in original] A NEGLECTED ARGUMENT FOR THE REALITY OF GOD. C. S. PEIRCE. I. THE word "God," so "capitalised" (as we Americans say), is the definable proper name, signifying Ens necessarium[1]; in my belief Really creator of all three Universes of Experience. Some words shall herein be capitalised when used, not as vernacular, but as terms defined. Thus an "idea" is the substance of an actual unitary thought or fancy; but "Idea," nearer Plato's idea of ἰδέα, denotes anything whose Being consists in its mere capacity for getting fully represented, regardless of any person's faculty or impotence to represent it. "Real" is a word invented in the thirteenth century to signify having Properties, i.e. characters sufficing to identify their subject, and possessing these whether they be anywise attributed to it by any single man or group of men, or not. Thus, the substance of a dream is not Real, since it was such as it was, merely in that a dreamer so dreamed it; but the fact of the dream is Real, if it was dreamed; since if so, its date, the name of the dreamer, etc., make up a set of circumstances sufficient to distinguish it from all other events; and these belong to it, i.e. would be true if predicated of it, whether A, B, or C Actually ascertains them or not.

  • Royal Image and Political Thinking in the Letters of Assurbanipal
    Royal Image and Political Thinking in the Letters of Assurbanipal SANAE ITO Academic dissertation to be publicly discussed, by due permission of the Faculty of Arts at the University of Helsinki, in Hall 5 on 15 April 2015 at 10 o’clock. University of Helsinki, Department of World Cultures Helsinki 2015 Sanae Ito Royal Image and Political Thinking in the Letters of Assurbanipal Copyright © Sanae Ito 2015 ISBN 978-951-51-0972-9 (Paperback) ISBN 978-951-51-0973-6 (PDF) UNIGRAFIA Helsinki University Print Helsinki 2015 To T. ABSTRACT Assurbanipal, the last great king of the Assyrian Empire (934-609 BC), ruled from 668 BC until at least 630 BC. He had to spend four years suppressing a revolt by Šamaš-šumu-ukīn, his older brother and the king of Babylon (667-648 BC), but his reign was much longer than his predecessors and he controlled almost all the area of the Ancient Near East. One of the essential bodies of research material on his reign is his correspondence, which has never before been studied in detail because much of it has been published in cuneiform copies only. His extant correspondence consists of 359 letters: 72 letters from him (the so-called royal letters) and 287 letters to him. Royal letters are particularly rare in the Assyrian correspondence and Assurbanipal’s royal letters outnumber those of his predecessors, hence this dissertation focuses on them. The letters deal with political, military, and diplomatic matters through the king’s point of view and in his words. The aim of this research has been to find out what image Assurbanipal tried to convey in his letters and how he utilized the image in order to further Assyrian policies.

  • Water Clock and Steelyard in the Jyotiṣkaraṇḍaka
    International Journal of Jaina Studies (Online) Vol. 14, No. 2 (2018) 1-49 WATER CLOCK AND STEELYARD IN THE JYOTIṢKARAṆḌAKA Sreeramula Rajeswara Sarma for Professor Nalini Balbir in friendship and admiration 0 Introduction Mahāvīrācārya, the great Jain mathematician who flourished in Karnataka in the ninth century, at the beginning of his mathematical work Gaṇitasārasaṃgraha, pays homage to Jina Mahāvīra who illuminated the entire universe with saṃkhyā-jñāna, the science of numbers. 1 Indeed, saṃkhyā-jñāna plays an important role in Jainism which seeks to comprehend the entire universe in numerical terms. In this process, the Jains conceived of immensely large numbers, making a very fine and subtle classification of transfinite numbers and operating with laws of integral and fractional indices and some kind of proto-logarithms.2 Kāla-jñāna or kāla-vibhāga is an important part of the saṃkhyā-jñāna, for time too needs to be comprehended in numbers. Jains measured time from the microscopic samaya, which cannot be sub-divided any further,3 to the macroscopic śīrṣa-prahelikā, a number indicating years which is said to occupy 194 or even 250 places in decimal notation.4 But for vyāvahārika or practical purposes, especially for the calendar, the early Jain literature makes use of a five-year cycle or yuga. The basic problem in astronomical time- measurement is that the apparent movements of the two great luminaries who determine the passage of time, namely the Sun and the Moon, do not synchronize. The lunar year falls short of about eleven days in comparison to the solar year and does not keep step with the passage of seasons.

    MILLER ERGONOMICS, SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS Shiftwork An Annotated Bibliography James C. Miller, Ph.D., CPE 10/1/2010 This report is an annotated bibliography. The primary purpose of the report was to gather relevant literature from databases with comprehensive coverage. The references cited herein address the design of shiftwork schedules and the effects of shiftwork on safety, health and human performance in many work environments. No limits were placed upon dates of publication; however, the bibliography generally reaches back slightly more than 30 years. No systematic attempt was made to list technical reports from the governments of other countries than the United States, though some are included. Citations listed within and to the publications cited here, along with keywords suggested by these publications, should allow the reader to search an area of interest almost completely. Subjects covered include shiftwork schedule structure; occupational risk and safety in and for aviation operations, driving, health workers, firefighters, maritime operations, military operations, nuclear power industry, police, and rail operations; individual differences, including adaptation and tolerance, age, gender, lark-owl, and locus of control; fatigue countermeasures including light, melatonin, modafinil, napping, and schedule planning; worker health including working hours, cancer, cardiovascular and respiratory, gastrointestinal, hormones and metabolism, reproductive health, and sleep; cognitive performance; models and software; research needs; and
