Abstract:

Chinese swordsmen spirit and Western chivalry, as representatives of Chinese culture and Western culture, both embody the spirit of valuing martial arts and the excellent qualities of being kind, honest, brave and justice to others. However, due to the influence of different cultural backgrounds, historical trajectories and national spirits, they exhibit different characteristics. Therefore, this paper analyzes the similarities and differences between swordsmen spirit and chivalry from three aspects: historical origin, social status and the inner power of chivalrous behavior.

Abstract:

The essence of Chinese art is the crystallization of thousands of years of cultural accumulation, permeating the wisdom and emotions of the Chinese nation, and serving as the carrier and manifestation of the national spirit. However, due to historical reasons, a profound lack of this traditional artistic spirit is evident in modern Chinese art education. The most representative example is the complete focus on Western art as the assessment content and criteria in the art college entrance examination. This article will start with the differences between Eastern and Western artistic spirits to e

Abstract:

One of the biggest drivers of current attention to the Holy Spirit in contemporary Western theology is the rise of world Christianity. The reason is not only that pentecostal, charismatic and independent spirit-type movements are prominent globally but also that majority-world theologians are rethinking theology for their contexts, in which concepts of Spirit, spirits and spirituality are already well developed. This article highlights some of the critical issues that this discourse raises and asks what considering the Holy Spirit in world perspective means for the future of pneumatology.

Abstract:

Speculative narratives of (techno)magic such as those offered by feminist technoscience, cyberwitches and techno-shamanism come from knowledge systems long marginalised in a hyper-optimised and hard-science-reliant capitalist discourse. Aiming to de-centre Western rational imaginaries of technology, they speak from decolonial and translocal perspectives, in which the relations between humans and technology are reconfigured in terms of care, relationality and multiplicity of epistemic positions. In this paper, we consider (techno)magic as an act of transgressing a knowledge system plus relation

Abstract:

One of the main achievements of Nietzsche’s philosophy was the doctrine on creative, highly spiritual personalities – “free spirits”. In contrast to such subjects as “will to power”, “eternal return” developed by the German philosopher in the last years of his philosophical activity, the subject of “free spirits” was comprehensive for him. He started his philosophical life with the book of “The Birth of Tragedy” (“cognizing minds”). Later Nietzsche positioned himself as an immoralist, oppositionist of Plato’s metaphysical philosophy. However, on the issue of true philosophers, their views comp

AbstractBoth British and American Black Pentecostals as well as Latin American ones have begun to to develop a social ethic based on a pneumatological perspective.

This article argues that a pneumatological spirituality has socio-political relevance also for Western European Pentecostals.

Though examined gender dynamics as they occur among the Tu in all three of these niches, we found that in the Tu spirit world, there are major male and female spirits who are viewed as having equal status and equal power over the

Often the saiva (or saivo) spirits have been defined as the guardian and helping spirits of the shaman. In this way, Saami shamanism appears as a counterpart to shamanism in Siberia and North America where guardian-spirit beliefs have similarly played a distinctive role. These beliefs should be considered as one of the constituent elements of shamanism. However, the concept of guardian spirits is not necessarily limited to shamans. The intention of this paper is to try to prove the occurrence of a non-shamanic guardian-spirit belief among the Saamis, and to discuss its religio-historical impor

The Filioque is a theological issue that has caused a divide in the Christian Churches, with the Western Churches (Latin Church) and Eastern Churches having different understandings of the procession of the Holy Spirit.

Abstract:

Most Native American groups believed in a form of animism in which spirit essence(s) infused forces of nature (e.g., the wind and thunder), many living plants and creatures, and many inanimate objects. This animism created other-than-human persons in which spirits were fused with matter that allowed them to interact with and even influence humans. Art in Western culture tends to denote “imagination”, and many scholars studying Native American art bring a similar perspective to their analyses. However, many Native Americans do not equate art with imagination in the same way, but instead use art

Based on fieldwork in the Dakhla oasis of Egypt and subsequent analysis, it is argued that interpretations of psychosis as spirit possession offer a broader range of intentionality than biomedical interpretations and therefore broader possibilities of relating to psychotic states.

Shakespeare depicts two laws together perfectly. The spirit of contract and Shakespeare’s humanist ideas are profoundly reflected throughout the play.

A review of the relevant literature shows that there are different currents in interpreting the place that the study of the Iranian Revolution has in Foucault's work.

Abstract:

Rather than simply reflecting on the origins of modernity, it is necessary to critically examine its main story by disseminating its underlying ideas throughout the world. Reevaluating the world through a different lens facilitates the deconstruction of the binary between the Global North and the Global South. This paper’s analysis scrutinizes the ideas introduced by the Moroccan philosopher Taha Abdurrahman in his work entitled "The Spirit of Modernity: A Prolegomenon to Laying the Foundations of Islamic Modernity." This paper illustrates the ability of Global South to offer a novel viewpoint

Abstract:

The classicality of the western architecture establishes its foundation at the beginning of the ancient Greece, is flourished in the ancient Rome and revitalized in the renaissance period, extends to the classicism and the classical revival, and finally is overthrown by the postmodernism. By going through development and prosperity in the past thousands of years, the classical spirit has always played a greatly significant role in the field of western architecture design.

Abstract This study aims to shed light on the richness, essence, and range of πνεῦμα lexemes in Paul’s correspondence to Christ followers in Western Asia Minor and Roman Philippi. I will endeavor to show the import of each occurrence of πνεῦμα or its cognate in these letters and provide a synthesis of the findings at the conclusion. It will become apparent that Paul does not have one consistent referent for πνεῦμα, either to the Holy Spirit or to other spiritual activities. The study will also show that Paul’s use of πνεῦμα lexemes is predicated upon the occasion and provenance of the letter i

Abstract:

The scholarship on Indigenous peoples is deeply steeped in colonization and often assumes a Western perspective. I start this article with my poetry as a female kalaaleq (Inuk from Greenland) poet. I contextualize my writing through discussions on praxis and new knowledge creation through poetry. In this article, I argue for a process of decolonization of written, academic knowledge on Indigenous peoples by inviting Indigenous writers to consider writing in poetry form, which comes from giftedness of inner soul-namely the spirit.Keywords: epistemology; narrative; Inuit worldview; decolonizatio

Abstract:

Modernity is viewed differently in western and eastern/Islamic culture. In western, it is associated more on theissue of secularism, the separation between religious affairs and the state. Another issue is the application of economiccapitalistic system, which concerns with the material life and reduces the spirit of sharing. Besides, the development oftechnology has reduced the quality of interpersonal relationship and has caused worries and psychosomatics. Not allMuslims agree with these issues. However, modernity also gives spirit to the progress of Muslim society. It can make peopleuse thei

Abstract:

In his essay ?The Protestant Ethic? Max Weber explains the specific economic development and the foundation of capitalism in Western Europe due to the appearance of protestant sects and the ?spirit of capitalism?. By doing so, Weber assigns religion a significant place among the factors of social and economic development. Taking Weber?s theory and argumentation as a starting point, this article drafts a thesis on ?orthodox ethic? and determines its role in the development of the ?spirit of capitalism? in orthodox countries. For that purpose this article compares political-historical circumstan

Abstract:

  This article discusses the issues of national spirit and national identity, which are not sufficiently studied in the socio-political and philosophical sciences. Naturally, in modern democratic processes, the spirit of the people is a powerful force, and a dialectical study of the self-consciousness of the people, which is the main driving force of the conceptual knowledge of history.  Accordingly, this issue is systematically retrospectively analyzed by Eastern and Western scholars based on the principles of historicity and modernity. The article shows the significance of the prag

Abstract:

This article presents an understanding of the Spirit as that which creates and sustains an authentic and open form of common life. It develops an insight of C. K. Barrett to illuminate a reading of the fruit of the Spirit in Galatians 5 finding it complementary to the understanding of the interconnecting Spirit developed by John V. Taylor. The sense of the Spirit that derives from these late twentieth-century considerations, as the opposite of the ego, and as a force which fosters community, is one that has the potential to reshape Christian mission in a context where the spiritual quest is fr
