Abstract:
The Chant or music used by the Papal choir, and indeed in most Catholic cathedrals and abbey churches is, excepting in some instances, ancient. Gregory the Great collected it into a body and gave it the form in which it now appears, though not the author of it. The chant of the psalms is simple and affecting, composed of Lydian, Phrygian and other Greek and Roman tunes, without many notes, but with a sufficient inflection to render them soft and plaintive or bold and animating…. This ancient music which has long been known by the name of the Gregorian chant, so well adapted to the gravity of divine service, has been much disfigured in the process of time by the bad taste of the middle and the false refinements of the latter ages. The first encumbered it with an endless succession of dull unnecessary notes, dragging their slow length along, and burthening the ear with a dead weight of sound; the other infected it with the melting airs, the laboured execution, the effeminate graces of the orchestra, useless to say the least even in the theatre, but profane and almost sacrilegious in the church. Some care seems to have been taken to avoid these defects in the papal choir. The general style and spirit of the ancient and primitive music have been retained and some modern compositions of known and acknowledged merit, introduced on stated days and in certain circumstances. Of musical instruments, the organ only is additional in St Peters, or rather in the Papal chapel, and even then not always: voices only are employed in general, and as those voices are numerous, perfect in their kind, and in thorough unison with one another, and as the singers themselves are concealed from view, the effect is enchanting and brings to mind ‘the celestial voices in full harmonic number joined’ that sometimes reached the ears of our first parents in paradise, and ‘lifted their thoughts to heaven’.

Résumé: La dissertation offre um aperçu de la danse et comment elle apparaît dans la littérature philosophique. D'une façon plus precise, elle consiste à présenter le panorama avec lequel le thème est discute dans les Dialogues de Platon. En considérant que le philosophe athénien presente la danse de la période classique de l'Antiquité Grecque dans une pluralité d'aspects, nous discutons : (1) l'éducation de la pólis, (2) le sens réligieux des festivals, (3) le caractère mimique de la danse grecque et (4) la santé et la beauté du corps dans les thérapeutiques qui enveloppent l'usage de la gymnastique et des jeux. Dans la second partie, nous exposons une introduction à la danse d'après la pensée de Nietzsche, em considérant les sens, les mots avec lequels la danse est instance de réversion du platonisme
Resumo: A dissertação oferece uma amostra de como a dança aparece na literatura filosófica. Em termos específicos, consiste em apresentar o panorama com que o tema é discutido nos diálogos de Platão. Considerando-se que o filósofo ateniense apresenta a dança do período clássico da antiguidade grega em uma pluralidade de aspectos, discutimos: (1) a educação da pólis, (2) o sentido religioso dos festivais, (3) o caráter mimético da dança grega e (4) a saúde e a beleza do corpo nas terapias que envolvem o uso da ginástica e dos jogos. Na segunda parte, expomos uma introdução à dança no pensamento de Nietzsche, considerando os sentidos e os termos com os quais a dança é uma instância de reversão do platonismo

Abstract:
Of the top thirty tallest statues in the world, 26 are either Buddhas or Bodhisattvas. Buddhists, especially in the 20th century, have been built some of the largest spectacle attractions in global history. The history of these sites in Japan, China, Thailand, Burma, and other places are briefly described followed by the introduction to the contents and the arguments of the book. The book examines the very idea of Buddhist public culture, spectacle culture, and leisure culture, as well as argues that these sites reflect a growing Buddhist ecumenism and the power of affective encounters in teaching Buddhism. It asks the reader to question the very category of “religious” architecture and instead think of the Japanese category of misemono (spectacle attractions) as an unexplored Buddhist category. The theoretical work of Daniel Miller, Miriam Hansen, Johan Huizinga, Michael Taussig, Scott Page, Lauren Rabinovitz, Witold Rybczynski, E.H. Gombrich, Jürgen Habermas, Gregory Seigworth, Eve Sedgwick, Melissa Gregg, Gregory Levine, and others are consulted in developing a material culture approach to the study of modern Buddhist architecture.

Abstract:
In the 1960s and 1970s, improvisational artists explored the use of feedback, both as a creative method and a model of the self in relation to its social and physical environment. As an alternative to centralized authority structures, feedback loops could be used to organize decentralized events or activities. The result would be a self-informing system, or autopoiesis. This idea informed the new field of cybernetics and the social philosophy of Paul Goodman and Gregory Bateson. Max Neuhaus’s realization of John Cage’s composition,Fontana Mix—Feed, made use of this structure, as did his later broadcast works,Public SupplyandRadio Net, and the dance form of “contact improvisation” developed by Steve Paxton. In these works, attention to the dynamics of interaction (“deutero-learning”) fostered an improvisational style based on a heightened environmental awareness rather than an exteriorization of the internal psyche, thus pioneering the postmodern, networked self.

Abstract:
Although Lewis’s emphasis on the Incarnation is well known, his emphasis on the doctrine of the Trinity is less well known because it is less concrete, more subtle, and expressed in his creative imagery. The theme of God as “the Great Dance”—borrowed from Gregory of Nazianzus—is communicated through an image of dynamism and movement rather than a static, inert object. To imagine the Trinitarian God as the Great Dance is to say that the inner life of God is social and relational, seeking to draw the rest of creation into that Dance which has been going on in God forever. The idea of the social Trinity is a backdrop for seeing human redemption not so much in juridical and legal terms but in terms of the Self-Giving, Self-Living Life at the heart of reality seeking to live and grow in our lives. How, then, could those who participate in that Life of unending beatitude not experience and reflect joy, love, and peace?

Full text
Abstract:
There is a saying attributed to the eighteenth-century Ukrainian philosopher Gregory Skovoroda that has long stayed in my mind. Skovoroda wrote that “we must be grateful to God that He created the world in such a way that everything simple is true and everything complicated is untrue.” I have always suspected this statement to be very profound, and I would like to believe it. I often do believe it. As I write these words, I am pretty sure that I believe it. But I can’t say that I am 100 percent free of doubt. Gregory Skovoroda came of simple peasant stock and lived in the days before multinational corporations, environmental management, lengthy tax returns, and global free trade. I know that great wisdom is supposed to be timeless, unaffected by changing circumstances, yet I wonder if exceptions can be made for times like ours. The trouble is that so many of the things I used to think were simple have turned out to be complicated. At times, usually around six in the morning when I am still in bed and life seems grim, I even wonder whether anything is simple anymore. Take the case of overpopulation. Any ecologist worthy of the name knows two things about overpopulation: first, it is bad; and second, the United States, because of its excessive per capita consumption, is already over populated. In this country, ecological, social, political, cultural, and economic systems have all been strained past the breaking point by the burden of too many people consuming too much. True, most citizens do not yet perceive the magnitude of the danger. The root causes of our worst problems rarely appear in plain view. As the biologist and social critic Garrett Hardin once wrote, “Nobody ever dies of overpopulation”; the death certificate—if there is a death certificate—lists something more tangible such as tuberculosis or AIDS. It is difficult to acknowledge distant ultimate causes such as over population when there is something easier and closer at hand to blame. Nevertheless, increasing numbers of people, even some economists, are beginning to recognize the simple idea that the world and its wealth are finite and that population growth must stop.

"Genetic Principles." In DNA Fingerprinting, edited by Lorne t. Kirby. Oxford University Press, 1993. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780716770015.003.0005.

Abstract:
Genetics is the study of heredity. Each individual’s makeup, or phenotype, is determined by nature and modified by environmental factors. DNA identity analysis is based strictly on heredity, and only in the rare case where a human had a bone marrow transplant would the white blood cell genotype differ from that inherited. Difficulties can arise with specimens because of DNA degradation or contamination by extraneous materials, and mixed cell populations could be present in tumorous tissue. The analyst must always be cognizant of these complicating factors. The concept of the gene was advanced by the Moravian monk Gregor Mendel in 1865 based on observations he made after crossing different varieties of garden peas; these experiments are considered the beginning of the discipline of genetics. (The term gene was actually coined by the Danish plant scientist W. Johannsen in the early 1900s.) Mendel formulated two laws. The law of segregation or separation states that two members of each gene pair (alleles) in a diploid organism separate to different gametes during sex cell formation. The law of independent assortment states that members of different pairs of alleles, if located on separate chromosomes or far apart on the same homologous chromosome pair, assort independently into gametes. These laws are basic to the understanding of biological family relationships and play a critical role in such contemporary issues as paternity testing and immigration disputes. The basic unit of life is the cell. Cells are microfactories in which raw materials (amino acids, simple carbohydrates, lipids, and trace elements) are received, new substances (proteins, complex lipids, carbohydrates, and nucleic acids) are produced, and wastes are removed. The thousands of different enzymes required for the myriad ongoing chemical reactions are key to the efficient functioning of cells. Each cell has the ability to self-replicate using the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) code as the blueprint, raw materials as building blocks, and enzymes as catalysts. It has been estimated that the average human being is composed of approximately 100 trillion cells—a considerable amount of DNA.
