Abstract:
BETWEEN1863AND1865 Gerard Manley Hopkins maintained a “little bk. for sins” as a record arising from his daily examination of conscience (6). Many of the failings seem sexually oriented: “Looking with terrible temptation at Maitland” and “Looking at temptations esp. at Geldart naked” (191, 174). The poet's guilty annotations of the illicit homoerotic pleasures of spectatorship are even more striking when the devout Hopkins associates perverse desire with the contemplation of bodies tortured for a religious cause: “Evil thought slightly in drawing made worse by drawing a crucified arm on same page,” or, even more directly blasphemous, “The evil thought in writing on our Lord's passion” (167, 157).

Abstract:
The article examines the functioning of the temptation motif in the ancient Russian apocrypha Zosima’s Journey to the Rahmans. The methods of implementing this motif in the text are analyzed; its significance in the plot of the work and in the formation of the image of the earthly paradise, with which the country of the blessed is associated in this literary work, is established. The biblical source of the motif is the Old Testament story of the fall of Adam and Eve and the test of the strength of faith, embodied in the temptation of Jesus Christ by the devil in the desert. The heterogenous structure of Zosima’s Journey to the Rahmans, where independent plots are integrated (the legendary story of the Rekhabites and the description of the land of the blessed), determined the varied realizations of the motif temptation in the text. An analysis revealed that the prologue of the literary work already contains an allusion to the Gospel temptation plot (a report of the forty-day prayer of the hermit to God). In the story of the Rechabites’ opposition to the king of Jerusalem and the story of the confrontation between Zosima and the devil, the motif of temptation is a plot-forming one. The story of the hermit’s temptation is formed by two storylines: Zosima's opposition to the devil and the fall of the first people, told by the tempter to intimidate the hermit. The Old Testament sin of Adam was developed in the storyline of Zosima and the Rechabite elder, who denounced the hermit as a «preacher» who involuntarily tried to persuade him to lie. The motif of temptation in Zosima’s Journey to the Rahmans may have been expressed explicitly, or merely be discernible, as in the story about the observance of Great Lent by the blessed or through the symbolic connotation of the numbers used in the literary work. The article also demonstrates that changes in the literary history of the apocrypha were reflected in the implementation of the temptation motif in its text.

Abstract:
Usually, camouflage is interpreted within the frame of deceitful communication. Scholars have mainly provided accounts of camouflage based on strategic-tactical sign emissions within the frame of ecological competition. The dominant key is one of antagonism and belligerence, whereby camouflage and camouflage detection are described as a ‘semiotic arms race’. These views are grounded in a utilitarian means/ends scheme of either strategic or tactical nature. By contrast, in this piece, I invite to conceptualise camouflage as the temptation of relation. Approaching camouflage as a specifically social temptation suggests regarding it as something that inherently exists beyond the functional domain. Three illustrations from the art world of photography are provided: Leo Selvaggio’s URME Surveillance Project, Arno Rafael Minkkinen’s Continental Divide, and Matthew Barney’s Cremaster 5.

Abstract:
Niccolò di Pietro Gerini's painting “The Temptation of Saint Anthony” (1390-1400) serves as a point of departure for this essay. It depicts Saint Anthony during a lapse of self-control as he attempts to resist an alluring mound of gold. Since the mound is in fact made of genuine gold leaves applied to the painting's surface, it works both as a representation of temptation as well as an object of desire affecting the beholder. The aim of this essay is to explore different approaches to materiality before the material turn within the art history discipline by examining two opposing directions within the writing and practice of art history: the tradition of connoisseurship; and the critique of the fetish within the theoretical apparatus of new art history and visual culture studies of the 1980s and 90s. As an expression of positivism within art history, it is argued that connoisseurship be considered within the context of its empirical practices dealing with objects. What is commonly described as the connoisseur's “taste” or “love for art” would then be just another way to describe the intimate relationship formed between art historians and the very objects under their scrutiny. More than other humanist disciplines, art history is, with the possible exception of archaeology, an object-based discipline. It is empirically anchored in the unruly, deep sea of objects commonly known as the history of art. Still, there has been a lack of in-depth theoretical reflection on the materiality of artworks in the writings of art historians before the material turn. The question however, is not ifthis is so, but rather, why?In this essay, it is suggested that the art history discipline has been marked by a complicated love-hate relationship with the materiality of which the very objects of study, more often than not, are made of; like Saint Anthony who is both attracted to and repelled by the shapeless mass of gold that Lucifer tempts him with. While connoisseurship represents attraction, resistance to the allure of objects can be traced to the habitual critique of fetishism of the first generations of visual culture studies and new art history. It reflects a negative stance towards objects and the material aspect of artworks, which enhanced a conceived dichotomy between thinking critically and analytically in contrast to managing documents and objects in archives and museum depositories. However, juxtaposing the act of thinking with the practice of manual labour has a long tradition in Western intellectual history. Furthermore, it is argued that art history cannot easily be compared to the history of other disciplines because of the simple fact that artworks are typically quite expensive and unique commodities, and as such, they provoke not just aesthetic but also fetishist responses. Thus, this desire to separate art history as a scientific discipline from the fetishism of the art market has had the paradoxical effect of causing art historians to shy away from developing methodologies and theory about materiality as an act of resistance.

Full text
Abstract:
Children's response to a resistance-to-temptation (RTT) task was investigated under three punishment threat conditions: negative consequence, removing an anticipated reward, and no explicit punishment. Ninety first and second graders participated in the RTT task and seventy-three parents completed the Behavior Assessment System for Children and the Psychopathy Screening Device. As only 4% of children transgressed, results are unclear. Hypotheses tested using approximations of transgression showed no differences in RTT. Children with temperaments characterized by hyperactivity, impulsivity, attention problems, and conduct problems (HIA-CP) had the highest levels of psychopathic traits compared to all others. In addition, spanked children were rated as having significantly more behavioral problems than non-spanked children. Limitations of the current study and suggestions for future research are discussed.

Full text
Abstract:
When the filmed version of The Last Temptation of Christ was released in the United States, it met with significant protests from conservative Christians who felt it was blasphemous. Using the controversy surrounding the film and its reception in Austin, Texas, this is a case study in censorship as a social process and in the cultural conflict it signifies. Certain societal factors must converge to create an art controversy. Through an examination of the film, the groups involved in the protest, and the social and political climate at the time, some of these factors are described. Imbedded in this controversy are the underlying tensions that permeate many modern cultural debates: shifting ideas of the sacred and the profane and definitions of moral authority.

Full text
Abstract:
This study examined the relationship between the resistance to temptation of three-, four-, and five-year-old children and parental attitudes toward child-rearing. Other variables explored included gender of the children, employment status of mothers, and socio-economic status of families. Fifty-two three-, four-, and five-year-old children from two centers were tested to determine their levels of resistance to temptation as measured by Grinder's Bean Bag Instrument. Parental attitudes toward child-rearing were measured by Schaefer and Bell's Parental Attitude Research Instrument (PARI). To determine the difference between the resistance to temptation scores and socio-economic status, gender, and employment status of mothers, Jt tests were employed. No significant differences were found with regard to these variables. Factor analysis of the PARI resulted in three primary factors: Hostility-Rejection, Authoritarian- Control, and Democratic-Attitude. To determine the difference between the Hostility-Rejection scores, Authoritarian-Control scores, and Democratic-Attitude scores of the mothers and socio-economic status, _t tests were employed. There were no significant differences between mothers of a lower socio-economic level and their Hostility- Rejection and Democratic-Attitude scores. However, mothers of a lower/upper socio-economic level showed significantly higher levels of Authoritarian-Control than mothers of an upper socio-economic level. To determine the difference between the Hostility-Rejection scores, Authoritarian- Control scores, and Democratic-Attitude scores of the mothers and employment status of the mothers, t_ tests were employed. No significant differences were found regarding these variables. To determine the relationship between the Hostility-Rejection scores, Authoritarian-Control scores, and Democratic-Attitude scores of the mothers and resistance to temptation scores of the children, a Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient was employed. Results indicated that there was no significant relationship between the Hostility-Rejection scores and the Authoritarian-Control scores of the mothers and the resistance to temptation score of the children. A significant relationship was found between the Democratic-Attitude scores of the mothers and the resistance to temptation score of the children.

Abstract:
Consumers consistently set goals for themselves. Despite good intentions, consumers often deviate from their goals. If consumers understand the benefits that arise from goal success, then why do most consumers fail to accomplish goals? Often, temptations are more appealing than achievement of goals; temptations are tangible while the benefits of a goal are difficult to grasp. An individual who uses his/her imagination to visualize goal success makes the goal more present-minded and attainable (Oettingen 2000). Thus, imagination facilitates self-efficacy, the belief in one’s ability to reach a goal. Higher self-efficacy, then, provides an individual with the willpower to achieve a goal (Taylor, Pham, Rivkin, and Armor 1998). Whereas previous work has examined temptations’ relationship with goals (e.g. Fedorikhin and Patrick 2010; Wilcox, Vallen, Block, and Fitzsimons 2009; Zhang, Huang, and Broniarczyk 2010; etc.), the scope of this dissertation study differs. Rather, the research aim is to identify how consumers can overcome visceral temptations. Thus, the main objectives include: contributing new perspectives on goal research by merging the literatures on imagination and visceral cues, outlining how imagination regulates the impact of visceral temptations, and identifying the underlying mechanism that explains how imagination regulates the relationship between visceral cues and ad-evoked thoughts, through self-efficacy.

Full text
Abstract:
“Bad Habits: Temptation & The Divided Self” is a thesis comprising an original work of fiction and a critical accompaniment, which use the lunatic asylum, the theatre and the uncanny motif of the double, in the context of nineteenth-century Fremantle, to interrogate social conformity and the patriarchal repression of female sexuality. Victorian society polarised women into either selfless, virtuous angels of the house or fallen women beyond redemption. While the former exemplified an unforgiving, patriarchal notion of femininity, the latter bore the stigma of ‘moral insanity’ and, given the right circumstances, could lead to a period of incarceration in the lunatic asylum. Thus, in fledgling Fremantle, psychiatry and the gothic lunatic asylum were deeply implicated in enforcing a patriarchal ideology on women. The Victorian rhetoric of virtue considered women more susceptible than men to the contaminating forces of such cultural phenomena as novels and the theatre. As such, actresses were both cause and effect of social contamination: not quite fallen, but similarly tainted. The protagonist in my historical fiction is an actress who experiences an uncomfortable dual consciousness when on stage as her ‘awareness’ watches from the wings, surveyor of herself surveyed. This duality is further entrenched when she is photographed by a local portrait artist and is admitted to Fremantle’s lunatic asylum for wilful and ‘promiscuous’ behaviour, diagnosed as suffering symptoms of ‘moral insanity’. Deprived of her freedom, she learns to view her past as something shameful and unnatural and is thus triumphant when she makes permanent the cleavage between her new conscience and her old. It is only on her release that she discovers the consequences of that division: an uncanny but inescapable relationship with her living, breathing double. Today, women are bombarded with images of the ideal feminine and girls are sexualised at an increasingly young age, and so a discussion of femininity, as defined by patriarchy, and the way it shapes a woman’s identity are as relevant as it has ever been. “Bad Habits” is designed to evoke a gothic Fremantle in which to explore motifs that arise in the numerous texts on the gothic and the uncanny manifestation of the divided self. These literary texts, read alongside those which analyse the fixation of Victorian society on the bodies, minds and weaknesses of women, have provided the framework for a critical analysis of the finished work.

Full text
Abstract:
Odilon Redon looked to Flaubert's novel, La Tentation de Saint Antoine, as inspiration for much of his oeuvre during the 1880's and 1890's. Redon and Flaubert shared a stylistic taste noted for destabilized meaning and deliberate ambiguity. To understand how Redon accomplished the disruption of a single meaning in his artistic productions, I will use a semiotic analysis of several of the lithographs from his Temptation albums to examine the verbal and visual sign systems, as well as the semiotic potential of the medium of lithography. The third part of the paper will focus on issues not previously addressed in art historical literature: the thesis that Redon empathized with St. Anthony to such an extent that he was continually drawn back to Flaubert's novel for inspiration for both his works in charcoal and lithography that he called his "noirs" and, later his works in color.

Full text
Abstract:
Rematerializing the Art Object examines Eleanor Antin's The Eight Temptations and Carving: A Traditional Sculpture. Temptations re-presents Antin's diet for Carving in a formal language of camp, mocking the dominant avant-garde culture and inspiring a less idea-based interpretation. Section one contextualizes Carving's formal qualities within a broader aesthetic history of photography and sculpture. Section two focuses on how Antin creates an amalgam of Renaissance and Baroque imagery in Temptations. Section three argues that Antin constructs a camp adaptation of the diet reducing the impact of an overly emotional woman and the seriousness of conceptualism to a cliché. Throughout, the thesis centers on the formal and aesthetic manifestations of Antin's humor. A performance within a performance, Temptations's parodic art history denounces pragmatic photography and empowers Antin as an artist and as a woman.

Abstract:
AbstractIn this chapter, I will reflect on medical ethics after the Holocaust by focusing on the rights and responsibilities of the physician to uphold bioethical values in society—which must transcend cultural, professional, and institutional mores. Physicians can do so only if: (a) They are called back to the value of the human person and the physician’s primary duty to uphold his or her good. (b) They acknowledge the hierarchical structure of medical education and resist reflexively the temptation to succumb to its moral dictates. (c) They promote a vigorous right of conscientious objection (CO), so that, if the time comes, they can defend their call to heal even against external pressures from the state, scientific establishment, and/or culture. (d) Finally, they remember those who suffered in the Holocaust both to honor them, and to remind physicians of what the power of medicine has done to degrade dignity, and what it has the potential to do to advance the dignity of all human persons.

Abstract:
This chapter explores opera—established as the antithesis of musical priesthood—as a site of debate over musical sensuality including the gendered discourse on opera and the critique of purity in those composers who, in Wagner’s words, “failed” to write opera with their “chaste and innocent hands.” A generation of revolutionary music critics, including Rudolf Benfey and Ludwig Eckardt, applied these Wagnerian values to Brahms with negative results, depicting purity as his weakest characteristic. Brahms’s own potential libretti and styles of opera in the 1860s and 1870s seem to explore alternatives to the Wagnerian Gesamtkunstwerk, from genres such as the oratorio to Singspiel, and topics including Carlo Gozzi’s eighteenth-century fairy-tale plays. Two of Brahms’s works from this period, the Op. 57 Daumer lieder and Op. 50 Rinaldo, contain dramatic and erotic elements that inspired some contemporaries to hope Brahms would take the next step toward an opera.

Abstract:
This essay opens up a new perspective on migration through the lens of waste, tracing the effects of war, border securitization, and global capitalism on a local scale. The analysis of Afganistanbul (2018), a short documentary produced by a team at Kadir Has University in Istanbul where the book in hand originated, captures the predicament of undocumented waste workers in the city who lack the means to continue their journey to Europe or return to their homeland, while resources and revenue in the global recycling business circulate freely. Following the film in its close-up on a specific site of life and labour, this essay teases out competing aspirations among local and migrant city dwellers, arguing that representations of migrant experiences are prone to the temptation of poverty porn and calling on spectators to consider their own implication in interlocking systems of inequity.

Abstract:
Attention is focused on the art of sketching meaning, amplifying the plot of “the Temptation of St. Anthony”. Starting in the late middle Ages, the plot becomes the occasion for developing the problem of the miraculous. For centuries, the artist's attention has been focused on horrors and torments, then on temptations and longing. The bestiary serves as an occasion for developing the wonderful, the terrible, and the ugly. If in the Renaissance the attention is focused on torment and horror, in the New age the interest is shifted to seduction and vicious beauty. The interest in hallucinations poses the problem of combining the charming and the disgusting to Surrealists. Over the course of the epochs, the aesthetic meaning of the “Temptation” story is transformed from the frightening infernal, invading reality as le merveilleux, to the psychosexual energy of the unconscious, generating le merveilleux sexuel.

Abstract:
Nowadays information technology represents a significant tool for assisting students in improving their achievements in many legitimate ways. In the same time, frequently enough, the same devices can become dishonest friends for some students who exploit them for evading their academic assignments. Such cases of academically dishonest uses of information technologies are influenced by a wide range of reasons. Ignorance or confusion over the nature of originality, unclear rules regarding academic dishonesty, underdeveloped moral reasoning, unsatisfactory teaching environments can be some of these reasons. In some other cases, students cheating practices seem to be "the easy way out", while creativity and originality represent a more demanding option. The present paper attempts to explore such practices of technology-enabled cut and paste plagiarism. The fact that more and more tech savvy students can "copy, paste and send" academic papers represents a real concern taken into consideration by the two authors. The issue of cyber plagiarism is considered a serious threat to academic integrity; in the same time, starting from the assumption that internet-based plagiarism undermines the educational goals established in a certain context, consequences on students' performances and development are also considered. In approaching this issue, the two authors combine their own teaching experiences in an action research type approach and they critically analyse "cyber cheating" existent in their students' graduation papers. For an in depth understanding of the phenomenon, a collection of investigations are revised and compared. The aim of the study is not only to identify dishonest practices identified over the past years in "ready-to-go" papers received, but also to find efficient addressing solutions.

Abstract:
Passionate about travel, the writers of the Pasoptist era were also tempted to explore the Orient, a sumptuous land full of miracles. In the memorials and travel diaries of Ion Heliade Rădulescu, Dimitrie Bolintineanu, Vasile Alecsandri et. a., the colorful, picturesque and bizarre, of the places visited, the unusual atmosphere of this universe are evoked. Contemplative, the Romanian writers expose in detail the coordinates of the oriental space – a mixture of human entities, of sumptuousness, luxury and misery. All of them still experience the feeling that they have entered a real Babylon. The exotic element is highlighted in geographical, ethnographic, cultural-spiritual descriptions, etc. The journey of the writer-travelers through such lands stimulates not only the initiatory adventure, but also the act of writing.

Abstract:
Collaboration of engineers with diverse technical background such as those found in cross-functional teams has been addressed as a key for successful system development. Similarly, the benefit of team-based-project class is increasingly emphasized in curriculum development. In a team project, however, there is always a temptation for a team member to free-ride on other team members’ efforts (i.e., receive the same credit without contributing to the project). This paper presents an analytical model in which two engineers work on a team project, as well as individually on separate projects. The engineers receive the same performance evaluation on their team project (whether they actually contribute to the project or not), but independent evaluations on their individual projects. This paper uses the model to identify conditions that discourage free-riding and encourage collaboration between two engineers. The results of the analysis and implications to team projects in industry and in curriculum are discussed.
