Abstract:

An understanding of pain presupposes that the sufferer is able to use a language which is understood by all. Pain is always described in the language of experience and this experience, encountered by all, is nevertheless lived alone. The interpretive process provides the framework for this study which explores the experiences of five persistent pain sufferers. They have not had their pain validated by diagnosis and persistent pain has become the centrepiece of their existence. The use of epiphany moments illuminates an understanding of the essence of persistent pain experiences, and sufferers

Coronary heart disease remains a leading cause of chronic illness in the world.

Abstract:

This dissertation is a comprehensive study of the life and work of the Viennese woodwind instrument maker Theodor Lotz. Lotz is central to many of the most significant developments in woodwind instrument manufacture and compositions of late 18th century Vienna, and is associated with some of the greatest players and composers of the day. Despite this, no study has been undertaken into his life and many of his surviving instruments have not been studied. This study corrects this by examining both the biographical and organological aspects of this maker. In Chapter 1, the current knowledge of Lo

Abstract:

This dissertation identifies patterns in biographical drama during the long twentieth century, investigating the persistent popularity of the dramatic re-enactment of historical lives on both stage and screen. It demonstrates the diversity, depth and continuing relevance of a genre which has frequently been dismissed as conservative and unchallenging. The reaction against Victorian hagiography in early twentieth century life writing, coupled with the surge of interest in the potential of psychoanalysis to unlock the mysteries of the ‘inner’ self, led to heightened awareness of the discrepancy

Abstract:

The 'Cosmopolitan Play' is used as a metaphor to reflect the multiple contexts and ways that people act and play with the 'other' in the contemporary global era. The study expands the cosmopolitan perspective by questioning a widely held assumption in much of the existing literature that cosmopolitanism and a 'cosmopolitan stance' (Hannerz 1990) - an openness and willingness to engage with the 'other' - is associated with mobile people. This assumption has led to three dimensions being mainly ignored in the literature, these are: 1) a 'middle group' of movers that are neither mobile elites nor

Abstract:

George Matheson, a Minister of Word and Sacrament in the Church of Scotland in the late Victorian period, was a mystic. Mysticism is not commonly associated with Scottish Presbyterian ministers who stand in the Calvinist branch of the Reformed tradition. In this thesis I discuss the extent to which Mathesonian theology reflects mystical theology, generally understood, and more specifically Hegelian mysticism. Drawing on a significant number of Matheson's writings, I have created a succession of foci which encapsulate Matheson's mystical thought: union with God, the inner life, immortality of t

This is a biographical study of Elizabeth D. Kane (1836-1909), travel writer and wife of Thomas L. Kane, non-Mormon friend of the nineteenth-century Mormons of Utah. Primary source materials are mainly Elizabeth's fourteen diaries (spanning the years 1853 to 1909), letters and narrative accounts. Elizabeth was greatly influenced by Thomas, while maintaining her independence. She was interested in religion and feminist issues, and those interests, combined with her marital relationship, shaped her life's direction. Thomas Kane's interest in the Mormons also influenced Elizabeth's religious and

Situated in the field of creative writing, this project identifies and conceptualises biographical ekphrasis: an emergent subgenre of ekphrasis in which poets respond to both a work of art and to the biography of the artist who created it.

In the Islamic tradition, as in other religious traditions, female saints are relatively few and not much scholarly attention has been given to them.

Rimsky-Korsakov composed his Symphony No. 2, Antar, in 1868, during his apprenticeship to Balakirev and involvement with The Five.

Rimsky-Korsakov revised Antar twice, in 1875 – by which time he was a professor at the Saint Petersburg Conservatory – and 1897. This thesis will examine the original 1868 version of Antar by placing it in the context of his career and the influences that shaped his style.

This thesis is a biography and study of the spiritual pilgrimage of R.J. Campbell (1867-1956). It details Campbell's life, considers the extent to which he was affected by the events of his time, and critically assesses his thought and influence. Chapter One outlines Campbell's formative years and shows the impact of Ulster Presbyterianism and family life upon him. The years 1867-80 are shown to be vital for an understanding of his adulthood and especially his religious leanings. The chapter ends with an account of his conversion to Congregationalism.

In doing so his art became the first example of a truly personal art, to him art was a deeply lived means of spiritual salvation, which he used as a means to transform himself. It was well known that Van Gogh was unstable and felt misunderstood in life, often asking “What is the use?” . He had a method of fusing what he saw in the world, and what he personally felt, int

Abstract:

The main focus of this thesis has been an investigation into the lives of men who have experienced some form of mental health problem. It has been suggested that mental illness may not be the most helpful way of conceptualising these experiences, as it presupposes the validity of the medical model of explanations and meanings. Instead it has been proposed that the term 'emotional distress' allows for the embodied nature of the experiences, and distances them from medical definitions. The key sociological concept used in the thesis is that of biographical disruption, a notion used by Bury (1982

It also questions the tendency to idealize ‘experts’ and disembodied forms of knowledge that are widespread in (higher) education, and even in social and therapeutic work.
