Kontext: Der achtjährige Jeremy, Sohn des Pfarrers Cole, hat sich tagelang inbrünstig auf die Vorstellung von “Dick Whittington” gefreut, die in der Gemeindehalle des kleinen Ortes Polchester stattfindet. Nun ist er am Morgen in Ungnade gefallen und darf seine Eltern und seine beiden Schwestern nicht zur Aufführung begleiten. Sein Onkel Samuel, erfolgloser Maler und schwarzes Schaf der Familie, nimmt ihn trotzdem heimlich mit. Auf der Empore der Gemeindehalle erlebt Jeremy mit allen Sinnen seine erste Theateraufführung, die – ungeachtet ihrer Mängel – die Welt für ihn verzaubert.. Context: For days, eight year-old Jeremy, the son of Reverend Cole, has fervently been looking forward to the play “Dick Whittington”, that is about to be staged in the assembly rooms of the small town of Polchester. Due to him misbehaving in the morning, he is barred from going to the show. But Uncle Samuel, unsuccessful painter and black sheep of the family, takes him along on the sly. On the gallery of the assembly rooms, Jeremy experiences his first theatre production with all his senses, a production which – despite its shortcomings – makes his world “a more magical place than it had ever been before.” […] Uncle Samuel paused at a ...

Abstract:

ABSTRACTIn this article we survey descriptions of Christmas celebrations contained in the diaries and narratives of polar explorers (mostly British) from 1818 to 1912. We find that Christmas was a time almost universally associated with the display of positive emotions, although this was in the context of increased amounts of stress associated with the challenges of over-wintering at high latitudes. Firstly, we argue that Christmas was crucial to the well-being of expedition participants because it opened emotional channels that enabled them to cope with stress. Secondly, we argue that Christmas revealed a play space in which certain types of normally deviant behaviour were welcomed. Thirdly, we argue that Christmas was a major nutritional event for over-wintering crew members, satisfying a need for calories that was rarely met in the everyday rations.

Abstract:

Year upon year the scene is set for what has, for many in Britain, become a strikingly and tangibly familiar image of Christmas and ultimately of childhood. Shepherds fiddle distractedly with their tea-towels. Angels preen their sparkly foil wings and hoist up their white woollen tights. Proudly bejewelled Kings fight over makeshift cardboard crowns. The school nativity play has become an ingrained part of British culture, and perhaps even something of a rite of passage. Despite the continuing prevalence and popularity of this ritualized narrative in British churches and schools, this phenomenon has not, until now, attracted any sustained academic study. This paper discusses four qualitative interviews I conducted in 2016 with parents whose children had recently performed in a nativity play at a non-faith state primary school in London. Examining how these parents interpreted their experiences, understandings, and memories of this dramatized narrative, I consider how the religious/cultural narrative is retold and reinterpreted through and in relation to personal life narratives. I draw upon anthropological and psychological theories of meaning seeking, memory making, and identity construction to explore how personal participation in, connection to, and narration of cultural/religious narratives might impact the type of valueattributed to their contents.

Abstract:

The domestic burning of Yule logs on Christmas Eve is an archaic tradition characteristic of the Christian population in the central Balkans. In the fifty years following World War Two, the socialist state suppressed these and other popular religious practices. However, ethnographic research in Serbia and Montenegro in the late 1980s showed that many village households, nevertheless, preserved their traditional Christmas rituals at home, in contrast to the larger towns, in which they were practically eradicated. Even in the micro-regions, such as the Bay of Kotor, there were observable differences between more secluded rural communities, in which the open hearth is still the ritual center of the house (on which the Yule logs are burned as many as seven times during the Christmas season), and the towns in which only a few households continued with the rite (burning small logs in the wood-stove). In the early 1990s, however, a revival of domestic religious celebrations as well as their extension into the public realm has occurred. This study shows how on Christmas Eve, houses and churchyards (as well as townsquares) are being transformed into sacred places. By analyzing the temporal and spatial aspects of this ritual event, the roles that the key actors play, the actions they undertake and artifacts they use, I attempt to demonstrate how the space of everyday life is transformed into a sacred home. In the end, the meanings and functions of homemaking are discussed in a way that confronts the classic distinction between private and public ritual environs.

Abstract:

The purpose of this thesis was to explore the relationships between spirituality and play. Phase 1 involved in-depth interviews with ten Christian participants who indicated relationships between their spiritual attitudes and their play experience. The exploration of the spirituality and play intersection resulted in several primary themes, or features, of play: enjoyment, freedom and creative expression, connection, transformation and meaning. Phase 2 consisted of a large-scale quantitative study designed to investigate the extent to which the sample (N = 346) reflected the features of play. The Play Experience Scale (PES), developed based on conceptual, theological and empirical research and Phase 1 data, aimed to evaluate ten primary features associated with play: freedom, enjoyment, relationships (with self, God, people, and nature), creativity, transformation and meaning. Overall frequency and enjoyment of play correlated with all the features of play, with the exception of the ‘relation to God’ feature. In exploring differences between Christian (n = 187) and non-Christian (n = 159) participants, results showed that non-Christians exhibited significantly greater frequency and enjoyment of participating in play. It was found that Christians scored significantly higher on the overall play experience score, and two features of play: relation to God and relation to nature. Further, Christian sport participants reported significantly higher levels on the PES and the features of enjoyment, relation to others, transformation and meaning, as compared to Christian sport non-participants. Factor analysis of the PES suggested three-factors: creative expression, relation to God, and transformation. Creative expression correlated most strongly with self and nature sources of spirituality; transformation correlated with human-spirituality; and relation to God correlated with theistic and transcendent spirituality. Creative expression correlated with all five categories of playful activity, relation to God negatively correlated with spontaneous and casual play, and transformation most strongly correlated with physical contests and sports. Overall, creative expression and transformation were significantly correlated with playful activity, self-determined motivation, dispositional flow and frequent sport participation. In Phase 3, in-depth interviews were conducted with seven pastors to explore how play could be integrated into church life. Pastors emphasized the capacity for play to develop and strengthen relationships, notably through pedagogical practice, intergenerational activities, and within organized community programs. Altogether, creative expression, transformation and interpersonal connections were the most prominent features of play that emerged from this mixed-methods study. Findings suggest that even though play is evident in the lives of Christians, tensions persist regarding the role of play within work-life integration. Additionally, contrasting perspectives emerged regarding spiritual maturity and relational and spiritual encounters. Future research needs to examine the utility of the PES, explore the ambiguity of spirituality and play, and engage a broader sample of participants, especially pastors. Study findings have implications for pastors, teachers and leaders wanting to incorporate play into ecclesiological and educational life through emphasizing and facilitating the creative, transformative and relational features of play.

Abstract:

The threefold purpose of this study was to assess the extent to which counseling seminary students' beliefs corresponded to the tenets of child-centered play therapy, the amount of training seminary counseling students received in the area of child counseling and play therapy, and the applicability of child-centered play therapy courses in seminary counselor education programs. The researcher pursued this purpose through administration of a survey instrument she developed. The instrument consisted of 22 demographic items and 23 5-point Likert scale items based on the tenets of child-centered play therapy. The sample was comprised of 206 seminary counseling students from 12 Christian seminaries across the United States: 155 female and 51 male participants ranging in age from 21 to 60 years old and including 5.3% African American, 3.9% Asian, 1.5% Biracial/Multiracial, 3.4% Hispanic, 83% White (Non-Hispanic), 2.4% Other. Multiple regression analysis was utilized to determine which demographic variables were significant predictors of respondents' beliefs regarding child-centered play therapy. Results indicated significance at p < .05 level. Specifically, respondents who reported feeling more prepared to counsel children reported beliefs more congruent with child-centered play therapy, and respondents from the Southwestern and Southeastern portions of the United States exhibited beliefs less congruent with child-centered play therapy. Respondents' reports of their gender, age, denominational grouping, counseling theory, previous training to work with children, parental status, and future plans to counsel children did not significantly predict beliefs corresponding to child-centered play therapy. Descriptive data revealed that 83.5% of respondents intended to counsel children after completing their graduate studies, yet only 20.4% of respondents reported having completed coursework in child counseling; thus, they appeared inadequately prepared to work with this specialized population. Implications for seminary counselor education programs are discussed.

Abstract:

Abstract This chapter examines the Dublin production and critical reception of Christa Winsloe’s Children in Uniform, which ran to full houses at the Gate for three weeks in April 1934. The play, which deals with the love between a Prussian schoolgirl and her female teacher, had premiered in Leipzig (1930), run successfully in Berlin (1931), and been adapted for the screen as Mädchen in Uniform (1931) before it was translated into English for a successful London run in 1932-1933. Edwards and mac Liammóir probably saw the original German play in Berlin in 1931. Using the prompt copy, lighting plots, photographs and reviews, the chapter shows how Edwards used expressionistic lighting and sonic leitmotifs to underscore the authoritarian regime within which the relationship between the women develops. In following the Berlin staging, Edwards produced a more subversive version of the play than that seen by London audiences or cinema goers.

Full text

Abstract:

Abstract Coiled Tubing Drilling (CTD) has been growing and developed rapidly through the last two decades. There have been numerous highly successful applications of CTD technology in Alaska, Canada, Oman and the United Arab Emirates (Sharjah Sajaa and Dubai Murgham fields), among other places. Currently, Saudi Arabia has undertaken a campaign for the last seven years that has shown successful results in gas reservoirs. ADNOC initiated a trial Coiled Tubing Underbalanced Drilling (CTUBD) project in the onshore tight gas reservoirs in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates beginning operations 1-December-2019. The initial trial will consist of three (3) wells. The purpose of the trial is to assess the suitability of CTUBD for drilling the reservoir sections of wells in these fields, and further application in others. The reason for choosing coiled tubing for drilling the reservoir sections is based upon the high H2S content of the reservoir fluids and the premise that HSE can be enhanced by using a closed drilling system rather than an open conventional system. The three wells will be newly drilled, cased and cemented down to top reservoir by a conventional rig. The rig will run the completion and Christmas tree before moving off and allowing the coiled tubing rig to move onto the well. The coiled tubing BOPs will be rigged up on top of the Christmas tree and a drilling BHA will be deployed through the completion to drill the reservoir lateral. The wells will be drilled underbalanced to aid reservoir performance and to allow hole cleaning with returns being taken up the coiled tubing / tubing annulus. The returns will be routed to a closed separation system with produced gas and condensate being primarily exported to the field plant via the production line, solids sparge to a closed tank or pit and the drilling fluid re-circulated. The primary drilling fluid will be treated water; however, nitrogen may be required for drilling future wells in the field and will be required regardless for purging gas from the surface equipment during operations. A flare will also be required for emergency use and for start-up of drilling. If the trial proves a success, a continuous drilling plan will be put in place.

Abstract:

This study aims to present the socio-economic and spiritual-religious specifics of the Syrian Kurds. The dominant agrarian livelihood of the “foreign Kurds” stimulates the preservation of the tribal-clan profile of their social structure. This directly reflects on the stability and strong resistance of the specific conservative political culture in which the political center is differentiated, due to non-social parameters. If religion (in a nuanced degree, ethnicity) plays a major role in the formation of the nation-building and state-building process among neighbors, Arabs and Turks, then in the Kurds, especially the Syrians, a similar function is played by the family cell. The main points in the article are: The Syrian Kurds; Armenians and Christians – Assyrians; The specific religious institutions of the Kurds. In conclusion: The main conclusion that can be drawn is that the Kurds in Syria are failing to create a large urban agglomeration, which pushes them to be constantly associated with the agricultural way of life. Even the small towns that were formed did not get a real urban appearance, as their inhabitants had numerous relatives who remained to live in the countryside.

Abstract:

Our aim in this research is to discuss the correspondence with the Ottoman State during the Crimean War, as well as the opposition of Sheikh Shamil, with whom the Russians encountered during their invasion of the North Caucasus. Crimea is a Turkish country, has historically been a place of invasion by various foreign forces due to its geographical location and strategic location. The growing appetite of the Tsarist Russian Empire, the main purpose of which was to capture Istanbul and the right to vote in the straits, led to the beginning of the Crimean War. The Russian leadership began the war, by taking advantage of the privileges granted by the Ottomans to Christians Catholics in Jerusalem, the Armenians in Anatolia and the Greek Greeks. Although the Ottomans ended their relations with the Russians, but the Russian army went on a new offensive. Despite the fact that they did not openly declare war, they captured Eflak (Romania) and Bogdan (Moldova). On October 4, 1853, the Ottoman State declared war on Tsarist Russia. On the other hand, as far as the interests and power of the Ottoman State in Crimea were weakened, the Turkish rulers approached the Russians and over time fell victim to the Russian leadership's plan. Key words: North Caucasian, Ottoman, Russia, Sheikh Shamil, Crimean War

Abstract:

Global international project of the 70-80-s of the XVIII century envisaging a new distribution of Europe based on the areas of the Ottoman Empire is reviewed in the article. This topic acquires a final feature in a conceptual form in the correspondence between Catherine II and the Emperor of Austria and the Holy Roman Empire Josephus II under the name of "Greek Project". The article is a scientific fragment of a monograph, reviewing the Greek Project in regard of the Caucasus for the first time in historiography. Initially, Soviet historiography strictly separated itself from the Greek Project, since the objective research of the latter would ensure presenting the Russian Empire as an aggressive state. Afterwards, the research of this project was converted into a narrow political framework and presented as a plan to conquer Crimea. The Greek Project can be unequivocally considered as a key to the history of Georgia of 50-80-ies of the XVIII century. A number of studies have shown that numerous problematic questions remain unanswered until the present day without considering the Greek Project. Patience and tolerance shown by the King of Kartli - Kakheti Erekle II towards the Russian intrigues cannot be explained without the Greek Project. Georgia acquires qualitatively different and desired form of all time through the implementation of the Greek Project. The Greek Project is an attempt to create a Christian global political model, a political background that can serve as a precondition for the restoration of a real united Caucasian Home, ensuring a guarantee of irreversible development and security for all royal principalities and khanate in the Caucasus. This is the reason, the state oriented thinker Erekle II, avoids responding with aggression to the permanent intrigues of Russia. Erekle II tries to get involved in this great political game as a sovereign of a full-fledged political entity. Such attitude of Erekle is a guarantee of success for the Imperial Court of St. Petersburg. However, Russia chooses a completely different way - confronting Erekle's benevolent alliance with hostile, imperial sentiments. The main message of these sentiments is that a united Caucasus, independent Georgian kingdoms for Russia is considered to be an anti-Russian phenomenon. This consistent and hostile attitude towards the Caucasus became the reason for the failure of Russian policy - it could neither establish a model of Christian globalization nor neutralize the Ottomans. Therefore, the study and understanding of the referred problem is rather important to determine the directions and priorities of modern political processes.
