Abstract:

The study of lyric epiphany, essential to any coordination of sociolinguistics and literature, is defined in terms of five considerations (e.g., its role in political rhetoric), and linguistic criteria such as phonic compression. One track in the argument deals with lyric epiphany in ordinary language (e.g., M.L. King's speeches), in prose (e.g., Cather and Tolstoy), and in the long poem. The second, intermittently intersecting track consists of intense analyses of four cases of linguistic epiphany in The Odyssey that involve (1) semantically ramifying root symbols such as the olive in Greece, (2) simile concentration, as in the reverse similes that commute antithetical subcategories, (3) phonic texturing (e.g., alliteration, phonaesthesia), and as a limiting case, (4) epiphany through chiasmus. The conclusions suggest the universal, cross-language and cross-cultural reality of lyric epiphany (e.g., not just classic Russian and Homeric Greek, but Quechua, Eskimo, and Sanskrit and Hebrew religious texts). Lyric epiphany is a subtype of generic epiphany: an intuition or revelation of truth values beyond language and empirical experience. Lyric epiphany, while a component of classical poetics – both Western and Eastern – and a subcategory of ideologies of Primitivism and, within that, of Modernism, is also, like the human body, part of the human experience that can and should be studied as part of cultural linguistics and sociolinguistics.

Abstract:

'Epiphany' comeback trailer is one of the opening music videos in the Love Yourself: Answer album sung and played by Jin, the oldest member of BTS. This video is a representation of the Love Myself campaign message promoted by BTS with Unicef Korea in 2018. Then, the analysis focuses on the mirrored scene in Epiphany's music video which is shown repeatedly three times compared to other scenes. This study uses a qualitative approach, with text analysis using Roland Barthes' semiotics by looking at the denotation, connotation and myth. In addition, data collection by non-participant observation, literature study and documentation. The results of this study indicate that the message of the Love Myself campaign in the Epiphany music video is a reflection of what is happening in the community. When someone tries to look good but if it is done solely for the sake of others it will make oneself miserable. Before someone strives for something for someone else, it is better to put yourself first by loving yourself.

Abstract:

The Polish version of the article was published in Roczniki Humanistyczne vol. 61, issue 2 (2014). The article is concerned with the function of the experience of exile that is a model for literary epiphanies. The starting point is showing the significance of this experience in James Joyce’s presentation of the epiphany that is formative for modern literature. Examples from Czesław Miłosz’s and Zbigniew Herbert’s works are material for interpreting two important reinterpretations of the epiphany based on the experience of exile.

Abstract:

Models of reinforcement learning (RL) are prevalent in the decision-making literature, but not all behavior seems to conform to the gradual convergence that is a central feature of RL. In some cases learning seems to happen all at once. Limited prior research on these “epiphanies” has shown evidence of sudden changes in behavior, but it remains unclear how such epiphanies occur. We propose a sequential-sampling model of epiphany learning (EL) and test it using an eye-tracking experiment. In the experiment, subjects repeatedly play a strategic game that has an optimal strategy. Subjects can learn over time from feedback but are also allowed to commit to a strategy at any time, eliminating all other options and opportunities to learn. We find that the EL model is consistent with the choices, eye movements, and pupillary responses of subjects who commit to the optimal strategy (correct epiphany) but not always of those who commit to a suboptimal strategy or who do not commit at all. Our findings suggest that EL is driven by a latent evidence accumulation process that can be revealed with eye-tracking data.

Abstract:

The aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the bond strength of Epiphany™ resin-based sealer to dentin walls after placement of calcium hydroxide [Ca(OH)2] dressings. Fifteen extracted single-rooted human teeth were instrumented using 2.5% NaOCl + EDTA as irrigants. The teeth were randomly assigned to 3 groups (n=5), according to the intracanal dressing: G1= Ca(OH)2 + saline; G2= Ca(OH)2 + 2% chlorhexidine gluconate (CHX) gel; and G3= saline (control). After 10 days of storage in 100% humidity at 37ºC, the dressings were removed and the root canals were filled with Epiphany™ sealer. After additional 48 h of storage, the specimens were sectioned transversally into 2-mm-thick discs. Push-out tests were performed (1 mm/min, Instron 4411) and the maximum loads at failure were recorded in MPa. One-way ANOVA and Newman-Keuls tests showed a statistically significant decrease in bond strength when a Ca(OH)2 dressing was used before root canal filling with Epiphany™ (G1= 10.18 ± 1.99 and G2= 9.98 ± 2.97) compared to the control group (13.82 ± 3.9) (p< 0.05). It may be concluded that the use of Ca(OH)2 as an intracanal dressing material affected the adhesion of Epiphany™ to the root canal walls, but even though the values were within the acceptable range found in the literature.

Abstract:

AbstractThe theophany in Psalm xviii includes, together with the storm imagery, images of wings/flight and bows/arrows in a combination appearing nowhere else in the Hebrew Bible Hebrew (HB). On the other hand, in the iconography of the ancient Near East, these motifs are often part of a divine apparition, especially to a king in battle. One of the major examples is the winged disc, which in many cases contains the image of a god armed with a bow. We present a number of examples of the motifs of winged gods and bows from Egyptian and Neo-Assyrian sources, both iconographic and textual. In particular, the Neo-Assyrian parallels relate to the theme of the divine glory, kbd, Akk. melammu, and the divine empowerment of the king which assures his victory in battle. In the context of these examples, the theophany (vss. 8-18) and the battle scene (vss. 30, 33-43) can be understood as two perspectives on a single event involving God and the king. This approach leads us to suggest an emendation in the difficult verses, 35-36.

Abstract:

The article develops the concept of “narrative epiphany”, which goes back to V.I. Tyupa’s narratology. This narrative is described as a variant of a narrative intrigue – the enigmatic intrigue of revelation with a particular “chain of clarifications, approximations, touching the content of life that is beyond human experience”. The author analyses the work of two writers – F. Mauriac and I. Murdoch to describe the religious and non-religious (secular) varieties of the narrative of epiphany. Besides typological similarities, The Sea, the Sea and Maltaverne: A Novel About a Young Man of Long Ago demonstrate genetic affinity. The comparative analysis allows the narrative of epiphany at all levels of the structure. Compositionally, it is characterized by the I-narrator of a twofold architectonic organization, when the work seems to be being written in plain view of the reader and appears to have already been completed, with the hero making his way to become a writer. Among other fundamental characteristics of the hero-storyteller are his confidence in his ability for insights and his power over souls and even the fate of other people, which is described as a kind of “witchcraft”. In terms of motives, the narrative of epiphany is characterized by the theme of the relationship between imagination and reality: the motives are verbal formulas of a cave, a tunnel, a crack, darkness, on the one hand, and light, the sun, an exit from darkness, on the other. There is also a motif of the atoning sacrifice, related to the turning point in the hero’s consciousness. The main plot collision can be described as self-deception of the protagonist, his false ideas about the meaning of his own life, and about relationships with others. The main event is related to the realization of previous illusions. The principal feature of the plot deployment of the narrative epiphany is the impossibility of “putting an end”, because the course of life appears as unstoppable, in spite of all the shocks and insights experienced by the hero, thus in the finale the horizon moves back again.

Abstract:

In this article, the author attempts to shed some light on the development of James Joyce’s aesthetic views in the context of the culture of the end of 19 and the beginning of 20 century. Relevance of this work is attributable to necessity of additional systematization of the aesthetic views of James Joyce. In this article, the author analyzes Joyce’s diaries 1903-1904, essays 1899-1902 and his novels “Stephen Hero” and “Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man”. The author considers the main concepts of Joyce’s aesthetic such as “analytic method”, “drama”, “classical temper”, “epiphany”. Considerable attention is paid to artistic rethinking of the aesthetic of Thomas Aquinas in James Joyce’s works. Joyce interprets the aesthetic of Thomas Aquinas in the manner of Walter Pater estheticism. In the context of this rethinking, Joyce’s concept of “epiphany” becomes important. Taken from theology concept “epiphany” is interpreted as a special view of the artist. The author concludes that the Thomist theory of the beautiful is reinterpreted in Joyce's work in the vein of English aestheticism of the late 19th century. The results of this investigation can be used in the works dedicated to modernism and in the teaching of literature of this period.

Abstract:

Three Epiphany homilies survive in Old English, two by Ælfric and one numbered sixteenth among the anonymous homilies in the late tenth-century Vercelli Book. True to early medieval convention for this feast, the homilies by Ælfric are devoted principally to the adoration of the magi and to Christ's Baptism, the two earliest manifestations of Christ's divinity. The Vercelli homily stands apart from these in several respects, perhaps most obviously in that it opens with a Gospel lection from Mt 3.13–17 (on the Baptism) rather than Mt 2.1–16 (on Herod's meeting with the wise men), and is the only medieval vernacular Epiphany homily to do so. As other scholars have noted, this pericope associates the homily with Gallican or Neapolitan rather than Roman use and links it liturgically to a small group of early Insular texts that include the Lindisfarne Gospels, St. Cuthbert's Gospels, and St. Burchard's Gospels — all of which contain lists of Gospel lections derived from a Neapolitan lectionary system. In addition, though a portion of the text has been lost, the Vercelli homily covers a range of themes seemingly out of place with Ælfric's more sober reflections on the feast, and the central portion of the homily in particular recounts a series of marvels associated with Christ's Baptism that has no parallel in medieval vernacular homiletic literature. The focus of that passage is a dialogue between Christ and John the Baptist, beginning just after the lost folio. Christ and John discuss the wonders of the Baptism, and the homilist interrupts them to explain this miraculous event as the fulfillment of an Old Testament prophecy:

Abstract:

For novice students, developing disciplinary literacy in literature courses in English as a Foreign Language education (EFL) at university entails mastering a number of skills. The purpose of this small-scale action research study is to investigate the extent to which two different oral exam formats can serve to make explicit commonly held warrants in the discourse community of literary studies. The material consists of observation notes from Socratic seminars and Thought-Question-Epiphany (TQE) seminars, both of which are analyzed using qualitative content analysis. The results show that most students adopt disciplinary conventions, such as building on each other’s ideas, using critical lenses, showing contextual awareness, and supporting claims with textual evidence. While the Socratic seminar format generates lively discussions, the sole focus on questions prevents students from preparing textual evidence for specific literary elements in the analysis. In the TQE seminar, some students react negatively to the forced inclusion of an epiphany, but the format also gives an opportunity to identify significant quotes in advance and to expand on interpretative ideas prompted by the three components.

Full text

Abstract:

Summary Milorad Pavić’s An Inscription in the Sign of the Virgin (1973) has not been the subject of scholarly investigation yet, although this story manifests a peculiar poetics of epiphany which aims to counter Yugoslavian (post-)modernity immanently by using its own hybrid and fragmented strategies and to restore an allegedly lost totality and transcendentality by focusing on a mythological past. The text is structured as a postmodern play with language and literary conventions; but its ontological, phenomenological, linguistic and geopoetic implications carry a conservative character. Every movement the text makes towards fragmentation is followed by an opposite movement towards a restoration of traditional structures. For these reasons, I propose to label this poetics of epiphany as ‘retro-(post-)modernism’. In this article, I will focus on the mentioned issues by illustrating these opposite movements with the help of the philosophical concepts of Jean-Luc Marion, Martin Heidegger, Jacques Derrida and Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari.

Abstract:

The purpose of this paper is to analyse the patterns of building literary (anti)heroes in the prose of William Trevor based on the novel Felicia’s Journey (1994). As a standard-bearer of new realism in the contemporary Irish and British literature, William Trevor writes novels, novellas, and short stories with humanised characters, which he builds using the mimetic literary method, shapes by psychological descrip- tion, and evaluates according to the criteria of believability. As a Protestant in the Catholic Ireland, an Irishman in England and a countryman in London, the author forges his characters on the front line of the archetypal battle between the good and the evil in man and nature, Ireland and England, the country and the city, the old- world religiousness and the new-world loss of faith. The startling plight of all Trevor’s antiheroes (marginalised, atomised and alienated) initiates their introspective evalu- ation until the cathartic self-awareness is achieved through personal epiphany. The most striking character transformations occur on life’s by-paths which irreversibly lead from virtue to sin, from innocence to experience, from the collective and general to the individual and personal. However, the characters’ epiphanic self-awareness is always and exclusively paid by happiness, the loss of which poses the underlying atmosphere, tone, colour, and leitmotif of each and every Trevor’s literary work.

Abstract:

AbstractIn dialogue with the remarkably insightful publication "Alexander the Great and Jaddua the High Priest According to Josephus" by Shaye J. D. Cohen (1982-83), this article argues that the story of Alexander-Jaddua meeting in Antiquities may be more persuasively explained as a propagandistic mixture of elements found in several types of ancient dream narratives rather than as a single type such as the soteriological epiphany as defined by Cohen. Cohen's classification relies heavily upon how Alexander's dream narrative functions in the larger context, but the theme and content of Alexander's dream narrative are in themselves not soteriological but a propagandistic divine legitimization of his conquest.

ABSTRACT Resilon is a thermoplastic synthetic polymer-based endodontic material alternative to gutta-percha. It contains bioactive glass and also radiopaque fillers. It has the same handling properties as gutta-percha. For endodontic retreatment, it may be dissolved with some solvents, such as chloroform or softened with heat. The composition of Resilon and its sealer (Epiphany) bond to dentin and form a monoblock. A review of the literature and a discussion of its properties comparing to other root canal filling materials are presented.

It sees Alesha’s fate in the sequel as a “Russian socialist” who will try to build Zosima’s earthly paradise of universal brotherhood, a notion for which there are deep affinities with Dostoevsky’s ideal of a Golden Age of international socialism. It contends that Dostoevsky was influenced by Hegel’s Phenomenology of Spirit for Alesha’s epiphany under the “stars” – where he is at one with the universe, like the more spiritual people of the antique Golden Age – and that this episode initiates his quest to establish Zosima’s paradise on earth or Dostoevsky’s new Golden Age.

Abstract:

The monstrous image created by William Blake in ‘The Tyger’ left the world wrapped in an apocalyptic vision that creates an epiphany of unknown Romantic potentials symbolised in ‘The Tyger’. The apocalyptic vision, deeply rooted in Christian religion, develops into an ominous harbinger of the destruction of the modern world portrayed in W.B. Yeats’ ‘The Second Coming’. The image of the beast marks the difference between two ages, one with strong potentials and the other with fear and resident evil unexplained. I argue that the apocalyptic theory in Christianity has an impact on the development of the image of the beast in both poems, an impact that highlights man’s retreat from Nature into the modern world which may fall apart because of beastly practices.

Abstract:

The dawning of radical consciousness is a key episode in the published autobiographies of Russian worker-revolutionaries. Frequently, this moment of epiphany is linked with the reading of some work of underground, illegal literature. Such is the case with Petr Moiseenko, an active participant in the revolutionary and tabor movements from the 1870s, best known as one of the instigators of the Morozov strike of 1885. In his Memoirs of an Old Revolutionary he states at the outset: "I must begin my memoirs from the time when illegal brochures first came my way: 'The Tale of Four Brothers,' 'The Clever Trick,' 'The Tale of a Kopeck,' and the 'Revolutionary Songbook.' From that time my awakening from the old, religious teachings began."

Abstract:

Two decades ago, renowned developmental psychologist Robert Kegan made a resounding call to investigate and make explicit, the form that undergoes fundamental change during human transformation. He explained that without precise understanding of the form, “there is no transformation” (Kegan, 2000, p. 48). A review of literature found that this literature gap remains and as such, this study aims to clarify “What form transforms as a result of human biopsychospiritual transformation?”  The method to achieve this goal is a concept analysis, which constitutes an empirical examination of a concept described in literature, where a concept---transformation in this case---is the research object. The outcomes illustrate that three structures change form (i.e., transform): the ego, mind, and body. Results reject that consciousness is a human form that transforms. An unexpected finding suggests the content of the life-changing experience (e.g., epiphany) indicates the form that will transform (i.e., the mind) and also the form through which consciousness emerges (i.e., increased consciousness of the mind).

Abstract:

The present paper discusses Dostoevsky’s Crime and Punishment as a novel that pushes the boundaries of psychological analysis in literature. Following L. S. Vygotsky’s approach to psychology of art, the commentary intends to delve into the structure of the novel to find the unique psychological perspective that is embedded in it. The analysis focuses on the opposition between fragmentation and unity in the novel’s structure and character portrayal, as well as on the epilogue as a moment in the narrative that fully unveils the anti-psychological nature of this literary work. The depiction of a deeper reality that cannot be grasped by a linear biographical-scientific understanding of personality is simultaneously the core of the novel’s anti-psychologism and its unique psychology, one that encompasses a metaphysical and spiritual realm in which epiphany finds its meaning. Lastly, we hope that this analytic and sensible effort can somehow contribute to enriching the contact with Dostoevsky’s literature, an experience that is in itself irreplaceable.

Abstract:

Abstract As a prominent representative figure of American Language poetry, Charles Bernstein has incorporated many themes concerning “nothingness” into his poetry. Contrary to the traditional Western philosophy that defines the concept of “nothingness” as meaninglessness and agnosticism, “nothingness” in Bernstein's poetics is endowed with profound poetic and aesthetic implications. Bernstein studied the works of Zen-Taoist philosophy in his early years. Understanding the Zen-Taoist connotations of “nothingness” is an important new dimension in interpreting Bernstein's echopoetics. Bernstein integrates the anti-traditional ideas in Zen-Taoist philosophy and aesthetics with the experiment of American avant-garde poetry. “The transformation between Xu (emptiness) and Shi (Being),” the beauty of “speechlessness,” and the expression of “defamiliarization” show the “epiphany” of language and the “nature” of language. The Chinese traditional Zen-Taoist philosophy is an important part of Bernstein's echopoetics.

Abstract:

It is of inestimable value to see one's work through the eyes of others. the book that is written is not the one that is read, especially when the readings, like those by the contributors to this cluster, come from different disciplinary perspectives. Whether it is Carina Ray's interpretation of a transnational African cosmopolitanism, Jesse Weaver Shipley's rhythmic repetitions as if of a jazz symphony, Adélékè Adéeko's rememory of other African cities, Anjali Prabhu's detection of autobiographical evasions, Alissa Trotz's invocation of South-South dialogue, or the urban analogs to Accra that Paul Lemos Horta sees in the 1001 Nights, for me each reading of Oxford Street, Accra has been an epiphany.

Abstract:

The article presents the perceptions and viewpoints of the Armenian medieval literary men concerning the spiritual symbol. Being anchored in the pan-Christian perception of the symbol, it laid the basis of the symbolic-allegorical thinking of the Armenian spiritual culture. In the history of the Armenian medieval literature and art studies, the analysis of symbols, in essence, the discovery of the epiphany in them, which is the fundamental meaning of the culture, have often been neglected. Today there is a necessity to analyse the spiritual culture in a new way to dig out its ideological – world outlook basis conditioned by the artistic and the festival and ritual functions of the different types of art. Such a research also enables us to comprehend the aesthetic, artistic and doctrinal - philosophical merits of the spiritual culture (literature, miniature, architecture, etc.) created throughout the centuries and still unknown to us in a new way, to review the system of criteria and ideological-methodological basis of the evaluation, which bears a great significance for the complete and precise perception and evaluation of the Armenian art and literature of the Middle Ages.

Abstract:

The article showcases the distinctive characteristics and analytical powers of the narratological approach to examination of a literary text as a system of episodes comprising a unique subject of the artistic whole. The author specifies the typological concept of the narrative picture of the world as the basis for accurate understanding of epic literature. An analytical description of the system of episodes in the short story The Bishop [Arkhierey] reveals the consistency of Chekhov's masterpiece with the precedential (in this case, evangelical) picture of the world. The story's narrative content is examined as an artistic actualisation of a sacred historical event in an incident of a private quotidian existence. The proposed interpretation of the story polemicises with that offered by the German narratology scholar W. Schmid, who denies the eventfulness of the protagonist's metamorphosis and views his epiphany with skepticism.
