Abstract:

This study aimed to describe the dynamics of spirituality among the retirement community viewed from the perspective of Maqashid al-Shari’ah and Psychology that are the factors that cause the strengthening of the activities of the spirituality to liberate itself from the situation of post-power syndrome. In-depth interviews and observations, data reduction, data presentation, and verification are the mainstay methods in the data collection and analysis of this study. The results of this study show that the mashlahah (benefit) that is the meeting point between the theory of Maqashid al-Shari’ah and Psychology become a basic need for the retirement community. In their old age, the retirement community precisely strengthens their spirituality. The strengthening factors of their spirituality are the motivation of the fulfillment of the needs of the world and hereafter, free of social conflicts, as well as the awards and respect from their surrounding community because of their devotion and example (social devotion and leadership).

Abstract:

This study aims at revealing the reflection of loyalty in Hemingway’s The Old man and the Sea. The focus of this study only on the character of Manolin, he is a learner of the old fisherman. This study is categorized as qualitative research design which is the data collected in the form of words rather than numbers. It is also used objective approach that the analysis focused only at the novel itself and the interrelationship between its internal parts of the elements. The results reveal that the character of Manolin was reflected loyalty to the old fisherman through his commitment over many challenges, his high attention to the old fisherman, and his devotion to him. It was mentioned as follows: firstly by showing his commitment over many challenges, secondly by showing high attention to Old man (Santiago), and the third showing his devotion to the old man (Santiago). The result presented here may facilitate information that Loyalty is the positive mental attitude that can be learned through the character of Manolin. It is also given to the student in English Education Department to duplicate the loyalty from Manolin because this is a positive attitude and can be used as a moral lesson.

Abstract:

The aim of this paper is to present the cult of icons in the Old Believer communities from the perspective of private devotion. For the Old Believers, from the beginning of the movement, in the middle of the 17th century, icons were at the center of their religious life. They were also at the center of religious conflict between Muscovite Patriarch Nikon, who initiated the reforms of the Russian Orthodox Church, and the Old Believers and their proponent, archpriest Avvakum Petrov. Some sources and documents from the 16th and 18th centuries make it possible to analyze the reasons for the popularity of small-sized icons among priested (popovtsy) and priestless (bespopovtsy) Old Believers, not only in their private houses but also in their prayer houses (molennas). The article also shows the role of domestic icons from the middle of the 17th century as a material foundation of the identity of the Old Believers movement.

Abstract:

AbstractSince the establishment of the Hipparcos Catalog as the defining source of the optical reference frame, densification beyond its ≈ 120,000 stars has been made possible by the utilization of the Tycho-1 Catalog. The ACT, combining the old Astrographic Catalog (AC) data with the Tycho-1 positions, is the best known example of this. The Tycho-2 consortium, led by E. Høg, has performed new reductions on the Tycho data. This not only has increased the astrometric and photometric accuracies of the original 1 million Tycho-1 stars, but also has added an additional 1.5 million stars. The U.S. Naval Observatory led the effort to compute the proper motions of these 2.5 million stars. They are based not only on the AC data but also include over 140 other ground-based catalogs, all directly reduced to the Hipparcos system. The result of these efforts is the Tycho-2 Catalog, available since February 2000. Positions, proper motions, and BT and VT magnitudes are given for 2.5 million stars. The catalog is 99% complete to V=11.0, and 90% complete to V=11.5. Positional accuracies at the mean epochs vary from < 10 mas for stars V < 9 to just under 100 mas for V > 12. Proper motion accuracies are estimated to be 1.3 mas/year to 3.0 mas/year for the same magnitude ranges. Photometric accuracies range from 0.02 magnitudes for the brightest stars to 0.25 magnitudes for the faintest.

Abstract:

Uncertainty regarding the circumstances in which devotion to the image of the Virgin of Guadalupe was established is almost as old as the devotion itself. The earliest surviving version of the legend, which recounts the adventures of the celebrated statue from the time of Gregory the Great to its discovery in the Montes de Toledo by the pastor Gil Cordero - an account dating from the late fourteenth or early fifteenth century - places its reappearance in the reign of the son of Fernando iii of Castile, ‘su fijo Don Alfonso el qual gano las Algesiras e murio sobre Gibraltar’, thus conflating Alfonso x, Fernando iii's son, who died in 1284, with Alfonso x's great-grandson Alfonso xi (1312–50). Attempts to unscramble or to disguise this confusion have a long history too, the earliest being that of the corrector of Ms AHN 48B, who expunged words and phrases and supplied marginal additions to bridge the gap between the reigns of the two Alfonsos.

Abstract:

India has been a land of diverse culture and traditions. When we say culture it includes many things like language, social customs, food habits, religion and so on. Of this religion seems to be the most influential factor in the life of an individual. It is something which lends meaning and purpose to our life. It is that which binds human beings to the Divine. And this bond can be established through the practise of Bhakti. The concept of Bhakti is an old one. It emphasises devotion to the personal God. Bhakti movement is an important development in the cultural history of India which originated in the south. The saints of Bhakti movement preached personal devotion to God as a means of attaining Salvation. They made use of local language to spread the ideology of Bhakti. Guru Nanak is one of the most influential saints of the Bhakti movement. In his teaching he incorporated ideas both from Hinduism as well as Islam. He revealed the truth of monotheism, importance of the recitation of God’s name with utmost devotion, need of a Guru for salvation. He tried to bridge the gap between the two communities of Islam and Hinduism and eradicate social problems by focusing on the truth of monotheism and the concept of equality.

Abstract:

AbstractMajor advances in our understanding of the Universe have historically come from dramatic improvements in our ability to accurately measure astronomical quantities. The astrometric observations obtained by modern digital sky surveys are enabling unprecedentedly massive and robust studies of the kinematics of the Milky Way. For example, the astrometric data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), together with half a century old astrometry from the Palomar Observatory Sky Survey (POSS), have enabled the construction of a catalog that includes absolute proper motions as accurate as 3 mas/year for about 20 million stars brighter than V=20, and for 80,000 spectroscopically confirmed quasars which provide exquisite error assessment. We discuss here several ongoing studies of Milky Way kinematics based on this catalog. The upcoming next-generation surveys will maintain this revolutionary progress. For example, we show using realistic simulations that the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) will measure proper motions accurate to 1 mas/year to a limit 4 magnitude fainter than possible with SDSS and POSS catalogs, or with the Gaia survey. LSST will also obtain geometric parallaxes with accuracy similar to Gaia's at its faint end (0.3 mas at V=20), and extend them to V=24 with an accuracy of 3 mas. We discuss the impact that these LSST measurements will have on studies of the Milky Way kinematics, and potential synergies with the Gaia survey.

Abstract:

In the vast and varied written heritage of Metropolitan and Patriarch Nikon, the inscriptions on the “holy things” that were written with the participa- tion of, or on his behalf, occupy a special place. These texts, different in volume and content, exist as notes on sheets of manuscript and early printed books, in the form of belts and compositions of tiled temple decoration, as well as on an- timenes, crosses, icons, bells, liturgical vessels, and seals. Many of them by their origin and location are associated with the patriarchal monasteries — the Resur- rection in New Jerusalem near Moscow, the Iversky Svyatoozersky in Valdai and the Onega Godfather on the Kiy-island. The corpus of the inscriptions, united by the name of the Primate, has never been studied in its entirety and systematically. The authors of the article attempted to fill these gaps by applying an integrated approach in the study. They prepared on the principle of a catalog a register of “holy things” — sacred objects that make up a single whole with the texts present- ed on them. The inscriptions are classified according to the functional purpose of the objects on which they are located. The groups of annals-historical, spiritual- educational, liturgical, historical-topographic, supplementary and owner’s in- scriptions are distinguished. Historical and philological research of texts is com- plemented by an analysis of the symbolic and semantic aspects of their architectur- al and artistic design. The inscriptions appear in the context of the iconic work of Patriarch Nikon, including hierotopic, iconographic and architectural programs, embodied with the participation of masters from Great, Small and White Russia. A comprehensive study allowed us to see the inscriptions and the personality of His Holiness Nikon from a perspective that reveals the richest spectrum of litur- gical, church-historical, patristic and artistic traditions of Old Russia, combined with new trends melted down in the furnace of Orthodoxy.

Abstract:

This chapter reviews the humanist supplement to scholastic theology, concerned more with devotional and ethical matters than the metaphysics of doctrine, yet the former would include a keen defence of the orthodox Eucharistic doctrine as well as conciliar theology which allowed for a political theology that was at once quasi-democratic while respecting order and office. Although a scholastic by method, John Mair shows this training to be used for questions of devotion and authority. Coming from very different backgrounds, Quintin Kennedy and Ninian Winzet offer defence of the Old Faith that is detailed and coherent. The civil ‘republicanism’ of Buchanan and Knox was the occasion of a Reforming Catholicism remaining true to the old faith in these key areas.

Devotion to Prosperity Gospel beliefs and practices assists these Latino immigrants in pursuing the American Dream and helps them adjust to life in America. This chapter highlights the challenges to assimilation for non-white immigrants and explain how these immigrants are engaging in a new form of assimilation. Like European immigrants from previous generations, these Latin American immigrants are planting roots in America and working hard to succeed in this country. But unlike previous immigrants, they are not completely leaving their old land behind to start anew. In a globalized world where international communication is uninterrupted and the transport of goods is simple, immigrants do not have to leave their home countries behind.

It discusses how Oanh helped run a women's hostel for students, including refugees and girls from the provinces in 1955. It also discloses Oanh's political baptism that came when she saw the Diem regime impose Catholicism on a Buddhist country and use religion as a tool for political domination. The chapter details Oanh's affiliation with foreign and local priests, the Catholic Action Movement, and other groups focusing on social problems in a war–torn society. It chronicles Oanh's devotion to young people, the disabled, the unemployed, the abused, and to old friends from Lycée Marie Curie after she gained a master's degree in social work in the Philippines.

Abstract:

Mexicans and other Latinos constitute 44 percent of Chicago Catholics. Facing a wave of parish closures, the archdiocese’s vitality rests heavily on Latinos. In Pilsen, once home to thirteen parishes, today only three parishes remain. This barrio’s Mexican identity is further challenged by gentrification. Yet Mexican Catholic devotion flourishes in Pilsen in public and unexpected ways, from house shrines and Day of the Dead altars to street Masses and citywide pilgrimages. What developed decades ago in a couple of parishes, most notably, St. Francis, impacts the entire archdiocese. Latinos constitute 17 percent of the US population, and the Mexican-descent population has settled in every state. Chicago’s century-old Mexican population offers lessons for countless dioceses and parishes in the midst of ethnic integration and succession around the nation.

Abstract:

Both patriarchal power and the power of erotic desire create problems for the imprudent. In Decameron 4.1 and “The Merchant’s Tale,” a powerful man accidentally discovers a woman he should control having sex with her lower status lover, prompting horror like a child’s on seeing its parents make love. Ghismonda, Prince Tancredi’s daughter, chooses a heroic death; May, old January’s disgruntled young wife, ingeniously avoids negative consequences. In Decameron 2.7, the beautiful Alatiel is passed from man to man as a sex toy, and an occasion for war and murder, until fortuna provides her an opportunity (kairos) to recover agency through the exercise of pragmatic prudence. In “The Miller’s Tale” fortuna punishes the three men who love Alisoun—her husband and two diametrically opposed suitors—for allowing their desire to be imprudently controlled by their devotion to, or “imprisonment” in, a different genre: fabliau, love lyric, and popular religious drama.

Abstract:

According to the 2001 census, the majority of Slovakia's population statistically follows the Catholic confession of Roman or Byzantine rites. In both rites, the Marian devotion has a consider- able place in religious reflection and spirituality. This study explores the religious discourse of the Marian devotion as it appears in available books and booklets on this topic. The main focus of the chapter is a comparison of the Marian discourse in Slovakia (representing a post-socialist country) and the Marian discourse in neighbouring Austria (representing a ‘Western’ country with no socialist history). For this purpose, a sample of Mariological reflections and spiritual texts was created based on their availability in all Catholic bookstores in the capital of Slovakia (Bratislava) and the capital of Austria (Vienna). The reason for this choice is that these bookstores offer books that mirror the living intellectual and religious brainstorming and reflect Christianity, in par-ticularly the pattern of the Marian discourse of the recent decades in both countries. The study comments on the absence of modern Marian literature in Slovak bookstores. The author also analyses the Marian vocabulary and topics in the both samples. The author distinguishes three existing models of the Marian discourse in Slovakia, all of traditional origin, portraying Mary as an unselfish and patient mother, Mary loving conditionally and restraining God's anger; Mary leading the legions against Satan and crushing his head. All three models are based on the traditional images of Mary and, within the Christian communities, are not understood as contradictory, but complementary. Compared to Western Christianity, the Marian discourse in Slovakia lacks two recurrent models: (1) the progressive 20th/21st century model, and (2) the traditionalist and fundamentalist mod- el. The first model has created a Marian vocabulary and contents representing a self-confident, social and communicative model of Mary. This model presents an alternative to the old models combining mild or triumphant vocabulary with mild or triumphant contents. The second model which is absent among Slovak believers is the Marian discourse of the traditionalist and fundamentalist groups of each age tolerated by official Church structures. These traditionalist and fundamentalist groups return to the old Marian vocabulary and contents that is triumphant, militant and – in this modern version – has an offensive character. This form of discourse, created as a reaction to progressive Christian groups – did not emerge in Slovakia, since there were no progressive Christian movements. Based on the research of the author, the Slovak Marian re- flection and spirituality result from traditional beliefs, having no affinity to Western progressive and traditionalist models. In this regard, it can be stated that Slovakia's isolation from the European spiritual development, which has caused traditional devotion to be fixed in its forms, is, paradoxically, continuing also after the fall of Communism in the era of religious freedom. The comparative discoursive analysis of Mariological literature in Slovakia and its Western neighbour – Austria has showed that the Slovak religious landscape is far more traditional (but not traditionalist) than the current trends in the ‘Western’ religious discourse.

Abstract:

Out of the intersection of a modernity that shrank miles into minutes with a disjointed temporality preserved by the limitations to fast travel, Madinah newspaper delineated a new space and time. It transformed its geographic isolation into a source of moral authenticity for the modern age. As a modern Islamic voice it wove its local public into the fabric of a history being lived by Muslims in many places. From the fusion of the telegraph and the printing press with centuries-old social and communication networks it fashioned credibility and accessibility; with Western print technology, it preserved the religious significance of traditional calligraphy; with this religious visual authority it elevated the aesthetic of the newspaper form. Embodying as a business the virtuous rhythms of Muslim devotion, it became an indelible part of the life rhythm of its home qasbah and of communities beyond its borders. This indicates that this and other small-town newspapers may have been a key vector by which these political orientations were incubated, nourished, and maintained.

Abstract:

From classical times onward, one of the basic tasks of women was to take care of the household lares, representatives of the ancient gods, whose presence was felt to protect and assist the family. In every dwelling with a hearth female members attended these deities with appropriate rituals. In the form of statuettes, often gilded, as well as framed wooden panel paintings, local deities occupied a prominent domestic space long into the Christian era. When the family converted to Christianity the ancient household gods were replaced by Christian icons, which took over the same role and protected the same space. It seems likely that women's responsibility for, and devotion to, the household protectors was transferred from the old deities to the new Christian God. Although there is no direct evidence for a removal of the older representations in order to institute new ones, when icons are later found in a domestic setting, they are in precisely that part of the home that is the particular preserve of women. It is this association between domestic cult and the veneration of icons in Byzantium that this chapter explores.

The National Library of Romania shares digital resources, providing access to knowledge and cultural heritage, through three online platforms. These are: a) The Traditional Virtual Catalog for the books published before 1993. It is the virtual image of the traditional catalog which is organized alphabetically by author name in the appropriate folders physical drawers. 1,600,000 sheets are structured in 1600 folders, and a folder contains on average 1,000 sheets scanned catalog. Book-to-Book Platform, a crowd-cataloguing tool, provides both search and retrieval of bibliographic information in virtual catalog of books traditionally published before 1993 and the possibility to learn and contribute voluntarily in the development of the catalog by creating associated metadata catalog sheets scanned. Book-to-Book is a collaborative project.Through specialized internships and specialized seminars in National Library of Romania, students from Faculty of Letters are better prepared for integration in labor market, achieving skills and abilities, a good level of professional preparation The platform and database was designed by the students from the Techical University Bucuresti. Accessible at http://bookathon.bibnat.ro/ b) The Online Catalog. The online catalog web component is offered determined by the integrated library system, Aleph and contains bibliographic informations about documents in the library collections since 1993: books, periodicals, multimedia documents, periodical articles culture. In the online catalog, defined by logical databases, The doctoral theses Referential, which provides access to online content thereof (by digitizing paper or archiving electronic content of CD attached by author) and digital library for blind (project Sound of pages) that disabled users have access to requested digitized works. Accessible http://alephnew.bibnat.ro:8991/F . c) The National Digital Library Started in 2009, it was conducted on dedicated library software, Digitool. It is comprised of digital collections created by digitizing special collections of documents in the National Library of Romania, organized by themes or after events. Currently includes the following collections: Historical Archive, Incunabula, Old Romanian books and bibliophile, Potographs of personalities, romanian illustrated postcards, picture postcards, manuscripts, old maps, musical scores, albums with engravings, exlibris, japanese prints, drawings Romanian etc. These collections are the result of research on copyright of items. The metadata and the thumbnails of the digital collections was harvested via OAI-PMH protocol and published in Europeana, keeping the source of the original URL and a digital objects, after a careful analysis of the metadata and a data migration process. Accessible at http://digitool.bibnat.ro/R . Databases have grown steadily and have become e-learning tools for some categories of users. The systems provide open resources, learning and navigating tutorials and contribute to the knowledgeable and creative society.

Abstract:

The old town of Arequipa - Peru was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 2000. The architectural style of the buildings in the city of Arequipa has evolved, adapting to the prevailing architectural trends over time, and to the constant earthquakes that have marked the pattern of its transformation through history. Some of the main identified styles are Andean baroque, neo-colonial, historicist, modernist, and postmodernist. This project proposes a qualitative, historical, spatial, and stylistic analysis of the buildings built in the city according to academic criteria and the collective memory of the inhabitants of Arequipa. The applied method consists of a stage-by-stage evaluation of the main representative buildings in the city using mapping and matrix tabulations from graphic documentation, in situ surveys, academic criteria according to the categories of antiquity, historicity, instrumentality and artistic value. In addition, the study aims to reflect the point of view of the buildings’ inhabitants, whilst becoming a useful tool for them. It will result in the development of a catalog of relevant buildings that will help to understand their representativeness in society.
