Başan, Osman Aziz. "Great Seljuks in Turkish historiography." Thesis, University of Edinburgh, 2003. http://hdl.handle.net/1842/9424.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The aim of this thesis is to present for the first time in English the corpus of Turkish scholarly writing on the Great Seljuks and to assess the internal consistency of the individual conclusions. In the West, the Great Seljuks are studied in the context of medieval Persian or Arabic history in particular and Islamic history in general [Lambton, 1987; Morgan, 1994a; Frye, 1993; Kennedy, 1994; Hodgson, 1974; Lewis, 1993]. In Turkey, the perspective that has emerged is quite different. According to Turkish scholars, besides Biblical studies and missionary activity, from the 19th century colonialism and industrialization were the main driving forces behind the study of Islamdom. This was because Western powers had to learn the languages and religion of their subjects in order to administer them and for industrialists to sell their goods to them [Koprilli.i, 1940:xxviii-xxix]. The racially and religiously biased Eurocentric histories that resulted also prejudged the Turks' historical role as solely military and destructive, arguing that they had not made a single contribution that furthered civilization [Ibid. 149-50 & 1981 :23; also Berktay, 1983:14-5]. At the Sevres Peace Talks, a memorandum to the Turkish delegation clearly expressed this prejudice Qune 23, 1919). According to the Allies, the Turks had ravaged and destroyed the lands they had conquered in Christendom and in Islamdom, because it was not in their nature 'to develop in peace what they had won in war' [Berktay, 1992:138-9]. It is not surprising, therefore, that Atatiirk initiated the search for a historical identity outside the confines of Islamic history and the West's assertion concerning the superiority of Graeco-Roman culture [Avctoglu, 1979/1 :18-27; Afetinan, 1981 :194ff]. Having said that, the roots of modern Turkish historiography must be sought in the century before Ataturk founded the Society for the Study of Turkish History (April 15, 1931).

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The present study provides an analysis of two different but interrelated historical dimensions. The first dimension, the founding process of Japanese Protestantism, is analysed in its wider historical context on the basis of contemporary scholarship, particuhirly Japanese. A second dimension: the ongoing historiographical interpretation of the founding process, is analysed from the foundation period itse1f up to 1945, against its contemporary historical background. The analytical approach takes account of the forms of history writing as weil as its contents, in an overall comparative perspective applied to the Japanese and the Western material. In the çonclusion the interpretative trends which are identified through the analysis of the second, historiographical dimension, are related to trends in contemporary interpretationof the foundation period. The conclusion thus focus on the relationship between prewar and postwar interpretation of Japanese Protestant beginnings.

Schneider, Ulrich Johannes. "Stäudlin and the historiography of philosophy." Universitätsbibliothek Leipzig, 2015. http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bsz:15-qucosa-161035.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The historiography of philosophy presents many difficulties to anybody addressing its more general features. How easy it would be if we had only one skeptic philosopher - who calls himself a skeptic or is believed to be one - and just one "other" philosopher who is not a skeptic or at least does not want be known as such. The third person would be the historian of philosophy who informs us about what befalls the skeptic philosopher and his skepticism. Does be have many followers or
many critics or both? Does he stick to his opinions throughout his life or does he change them? ls he ignored by the other philosopher or rather criticized by him? The historian would report all of this to us; we would read his story and be in a position to discuss it, to compare it with the skeptic's own writings and with those of his opponent, and so on. Unfortunately, this ideal constellation does not exist. History is more complex; the historians of philosophy reporting on skepticism have
to deal with several skeptical philosophers - self-declared or suspected - from ancient and modern times, and with various theories of skepticism - apologetic and polemic, prompted by religious, scientific or other considerations. Most importantly, historians of philosophy are not a third party. This can be learned from Stäudlin's History of Skepticism.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Cette recherche a eu comme objectif de comprendre le concept de «sensible» dans la sémiotique greimasienne et post-greimasienne, sous la perspective de l'historiographie linguistique, en contextualisant son apparition et sa permanence dans les études sémiotiques contemporaines. Dans ce travail, le «sensible» est défini comme un hyperonyme et les autres concepts circonscrits dans son champ sont considérés comme ses domaines : de la corporéité, de la passionnalité et de la sensibilité. Pour chaque domaine, nous avons souligné les termes qui concernent le sensible : corps, affection, passion, émotion, contagion, sensation, perception, esthétique et estésique. On a récupéré le contexte théorique de ces concepts par les principes historiographiques de la contextualisation, l’immanence, l'adéquation et de l'influence, de K. Koerner (1996, 2014), les paramètres de couverture, la perspective et la profondeur et les types de composants heuristiques, herméneutique et de reconstruction systématique de P. Swiggers (2009, 2015) et l’horizon de rétrospection de S. Auroux (2008), en traçant son chemin depuis ses origines en Sémantique Structurale (1966), de A. J. Greimas, et par l'émergence et son impact dans les travaux de J. Fontanille, E. Landowski et C. Zilberberg, qui correspondent à la période que nous avons appelé ici post-greimassienne. Ensuite, on a défini dans quelle mesure le «sensible» a apparu dans la rhétorique et / ou l'immanence des œuvres de sémioticiens choisis. Après avoir établi les déploiements épistémologiques du «sensible», finalement, nous avons défini le lieu historique et épistémologique d'une sémiotique, considérée aujourd’hui sensible ou plus sensible, en explicitant sa pertinence dans les études du langage<br>This research aimed to understandthe concept of “sensitive”in greimasian and post-greimasian semiotics, due to the bias of linguistic historiography, contextualizing its emergence and permanence in contemporary semiotic studies.

In each domain, we highlight terms related to the sensitive: body, affection, passion, emotion, contagion, sensation, perception, esthetics and aesthetics. We retrieve the theoretical thickness of these concepts through the bias of the historiographic principles of contextualization, immanence, adequacy and influence, by K.

Then we define to what extent the “sensitive”appeared in the rhetoric and / or immanence of the works of the chosen semioticists. After establishing the epistemological unfolding of the “sensitive”, finally, we were able to define the historical and epistemological place of a semiotics, considered today as sensitive or more sensitive, explaining its relevance in language studies

Mower, Andrew James. "English historiography of the Crusades, 1550-1660." Thesis, University of East Anglia, 2011. http://ethos.bl.uk/OrderDetails.do?uin=uk.bl.ethos.634034.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This thesis explores English writings about the crusades from 1550 to 1660. It focuses particularly on the political and religious contexts in which matiyrologist John Foxe, schoolmaster Richard Knolles, and Anglican divine Thomas Fuller wrote about the Holy War to comprehend the emergence of three distinct strands of crusade representation in English historiography. These approaches demonstrate that the crusades were repeatedly remoulded and reimagined in early modem England as part of intra-Protestant polemics fought to define the Anglican Church, and to determine how the nation would position herself politically within an increasingly fractured Christendom. Crusade scepticism, coloured by diverse agendas, competed with a conservative vision of the movement that stylistically owed most to medieval historiography, but that was often driven by a growing feat· of radical religious reform. This balanced perspective on attitudes is reinforced by consideration of key crusading themes in plays, sermons, and other 'non-historical' genres. Taking these texts into account acknowledges that early modem readers absorbed lessons about the past from a broad spectrum of sources, while demonstrating the complex relationship between the Reformation and images of the Holy War in English writings. Finally, the thesis argues that continuity in representations was no less important than change; striking within this diverse portfolio of texts is the coherence with which they viewed the crusades' consequences as pertinent to the Ottoman Empire's continuing attacks on Christian lands. This thesis suggests that only at the end of the seventeenth century, in conjunction with a perception that the Ottoman threat to the West had withered, did English writers detach themselves from the emotions of the crusades, to write about them as a distinct historical phenomenon.

Kellman, Emma. "Politicized Historiography and the Zionist-Crusader Analogy." Scholarship @ Claremont, 2014. http://scholarship.claremont.edu/scripps_theses/483.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This study offers a look at the ways in which discourse shaped by the contemporary Israel-Palestine conflict serves as a framework for modern historiography on Palestine. It focuses specifically on the variety of historical narratives proffered as to the “truth” of the Crusade period in Palestine, roughly the eleventh through the thirteenth centuries, and their mobilization in political agendas through the Zionist-Crusader analogy. This comparison, a historical analogy likening Zionists to Frankish Crusaders or the State of Israel to the Latin Kingdom of Jerusalem, appears frequently in contemporary dialogue on the Israel-Palestine conflict; it comes from a diverse range of sources and for a variety of political ends, showing that the politicization of history of the contested land is a widespread phenomenon that is limited neither to academic nor political circles. Furthermore, this study argues that common national, religious, or ethnic identities do not guarantee common political conclusions or agreement on the “facts” of the Crusader past. On a broader level, this study investigates the theoretical underpinnings of national histories and their employment as political devices in nationalist movements, as well as explores the role of individual agency in creating and deploying nationalist historical narratives within the framework of the Zionist-Crusader analogy. In the specific context of the Israel-Palestine conflict and the modern State of Israel, this theoretical component focuses primarily on applications of Crusade history to supporting or challenging contemporary political-religious claims to the land of Israel-Palestine.

This article addresses the issue of the pre-legal nature of the Juridical and its stratification in the social and legal level. Also, it contrasts the theory of the will and the theory of the declaration, and refers to the controversy between Emilio Betti and Giuseppe Stolfi about the dispute over the language. The idea of monism is developed in the theory of the Juridical Act quoting Santi Romano and Hans Kelsen, as well as its tensions with dualism. Finally, it takes Juridical Act as historiographical category, and its relationship to the problems of technological society and closes with the gap between private autonomy and Juridical Act.<br>El presente artículo aborda la cuestión de la naturaleza prejurídica del negocio jurídico, así como su estratificación en el plano social y jurídico.

Se desarrolla la idea del monismo en la teoría del negocio jurídico citando a Santi Romano y Hans Kelsen, así como sus tensiones con el dualismo. Finalmente, se trata al negocio jurídico como categoría historiográfica, y su relación con los problemas de la sociedad tecnológica para cerrar con la separación entre autonomía privada y negocio jurídico.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The thesis has been divided into five chapters. The three central chapters reflect paradigmatic shifts in Nigerian historiography. During the colonial era, although a few texts written by Nigerians entered the published literature, most writing was produced by non-Africans, anthropologists and colonial administrators, for the purpose of social investigation and control. With the establishment of Nigerian universities in 1948, academic historians, fuelled by the desire for independence, reclaimed their discipline to write local and national political histories. Encouraged by the concerns of the North American feminist movement of the 1970s, women gained an increasing presence in research and literature.<br>Contrary to earlier arguments, categories for representations of women in history coexist in time. There are periods such as the nationalist era, in which women are almost invisible. When women are present in the literature, however, they are seen both in complementary power relationships with men in certain economic areas, such as trading, and in other areas, such as taxation, subject to male power.

Janzen, Loewen Patricia. "Critical and edifying? A historiography of Christian biography." Thesis, University of British Columbia, 2008. http://hdl.handle.net/2429/3958.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This dissertation argues that edifying dialogue is an appropriate and satisfying component of historically critical biography. It has been a part of biography. The edifying and critical intent is traced through pre-modern biography to demonstrate that this was the case in the Hebrew, Greek, Roman, Early Christian and Medieval eras. Key authors examined include the author(s) of the Pentateuch, the Gospel writers and the authors of the Biblical epistles, Herodotus, Polybius, Livy, Plutarch, Tacitus, Athanasius, Jerome, Sulpicius Severus, and John Capgrave. It can be a part of biography even given the challenges of contemporary theory posed by the extreme positions of positivism and postmodernism (or their chastened re-formulations). Important authors discussed in this section include Arthur Marwick, Keith Jenkins, David Harlan and Peter Novick. It is a part of some biographies meant for a particular audience (such as feminist works). And hopefully it will be increasingly looked upon as the preferred way of writing biography. My dissertation follows these stages. I begin with what biography has been and argue that the Greek and Roman historians believed that the intent of biography was critical and edifying. In fact, critical and edifying intent is notable also in Biblical and medieval biographies. The next section argues that edifying discourse is compatible with both traditional and postmodern theories of history-writing. The third section of the dissertation moves from theoretical considerations to the work of two notable Christian historians, George Marsden and Harry Stout. I note that these two scholars in particular are, in theory, open to my argument but that they can hesitate to engage in edifying discourse in biography. Finally, I briefly examine a few authors who write edifying and critical biography. Toril Moi, Carolyn Heilbrun, and the Bollandists are discussed in this section.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This dissertation focuses on five closely knit writers who, between 1962 and 1981, produced exemplary historiographic poetry that guided their contemporaries. Al Purdy, John Newlove, Barry McKinnon, Andrew Suknaski, and Margaret Atwood were the chief voices of a literary mode that I term "modernist lyric historiography": a meditative modernist lyric that is self-critical, self-consciously incapable of claiming and skeptical about any claim to authority over history, and fundamentally historiographic (in the sense that it synthesizes, discards, and/or critically evaluates fragments of history). Arguably, Purdy was the inaugurator of lyric historiography: in the early 1960s, he experimented with a modernist lyric attentive to a broad vision of Canadian history. Newlove was one of many poets who saw Purdy's lyric historiography as a mode that could be used to provide insight into neglected prairie histories. As part of their search for more intimate connections to history that could sustain longer, narrative poems, McKinnon and Suknaski adapted lyric historiography to explore the familial past. Atwood reimagined lyric historiography as the search for Canadian "foremothers," proto-feminists that could serve as models for the second-wave feminist movement.Addressing the archives, creative writing, and historical contexts of these five writers, this dissertation proposes two primary claims. First, modernism persisted well into the 1970s (and even beyond) and shared with Canadian postmodernism a sophisticated approach to the idea of "history." Second, modernist lyric historiography was a continued investigation into one's ability to claim authority over historical narratives. Many modernists found some measure of such authority by exploring the most intimate connections to the past, which tended to be literal and figurative familial ones.<br>Cette thèse traite de cinq écrivains, qui, entre 1962 et 1981, ont créé des modèles de poésie historiographique, qui ont guidé leurs contemporains modernistes. Al Purdy, John Newlove, Barry McKinnon, Andrew Suknaski et Margaret Atwood ont été les figures principales d'un mode littéraire que nous appelons «l'historiographie lyrique moderniste». Ce terme désigne une poésie lyrique moderniste et méditative, qui est autocritique, réticente à revendiquer une quelconque autorité sur l'histoire et méfiante de cette autorité lorsqu'elle est invoquée, ainsi que fondamentalement historiographique. Au début des années 1960, Purdy expérimente avec la poésie moderniste sur l'histoire du Canada. Newlove considérait l'historiographie lyrique de Purdy comme une manière d'écrire qui pourrait offrir une nouvelle façon de voir le passé négligé des prairies. McKinnon et Suknaski ont adapté l'historiographie lyrique en examinant le passé de leur famille. Atwood a réinventé l'historiographie lyrique en tant que recherche des «aïeules» canadiennes, des proto-féministes qui pourraient servir de modèle à la deuxième génération de féministes. En tenant compte des archives, de l'écriture et des contextes historiques de ces cinq écrivains, cette thèse propose deux idées principales. Premièrement, nous affirmons que le modernisme a persisté durant l'après-guerre et qu'il partageait avec le postmodernisme canadien une approche sophistiquée et critique de l'histoire. Deuxièmement, nous soutenons que l'historiographie lyrique moderniste consistait en un questionnement persistant sur la capacité de revendiquer une certaine autorité concernant un récit historique.

Thesis (MMus (Music))--University of Stellenbosch, 2010.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Current musicological discourses in South Africa seldom engage with Afrikaans content and
contributions, even though there is an acknowledged large body of writing on music in
Afrikaans. These writings could significantly inform music and general historiographies in
South Africa. This study discusses music-related articles in the following Afrikaans
magazines and newspapers of the early twentieth century: Die Brandwag (1910-1921), Die
Burger (1915-1948), Die Huisgenoot (1916-1948), Die Nuwe Brandwag (1929-1933), Die
Brandwag (1937-1948) and Die Transvaler (1937-1948).
The subject matter of a large proportion of these music-related articles comprises the
history of Western European music. This includes biographies of composers and histories of
stylistic periods, genres and instruments. Despite the physical distance between Europe and
Africa, Afrikaners‘ attraction to Europe borders at times on a feeling of belonging to this
tradition. This cosmopolitan notion of belonging has received little attention compared to
themes of race, language and nationalism in twentieth-century South African historiography.
A neglected Afrikaans discourse on music, however, presents an opportunity to explore the
possibilities of cosmopolitanism in a further interpretation of Afrikaner identity and
understanding of South African history. It is for this reason that the current study is primarily
concerned with tracing the role of musical discourse in Afrikaner society between 1910 and
1948 by investigating notions of cosmopolitanism.
The two theoretical strands of cosmopolitanism that will guide this study concern the
work of Friedrich Meinecke (an early twentieth-century German scholar), and Kwame
Anthony Appiah (who is still active in the field of philosophy). Meinecke‘s work is mainly
concerned with the role cosmopolitan values played in the development of the National State,
with specific reference to Germany from the late eighteenth century to the late nineteenth
century. What attracts Appiah to cosmopolitanism is the freedom it provides for the individual
to create her own identity. To be a citizen of the world need not be a rootless existence, but
allows anyone to be a patriot of the country of her own choice.
Meinecke‘s and Appiah‘s theories of cosmopolitanism, and their different positioning
of the intersecting points between the spheres of the individual, the nation and the globe, will
provide two theoretical frameworks informing the present author‘s attempt to interpret some
of the materials collated for this study. The present writer believes that cosmopolitanism will
prove an appropriate theory to uncover some elements of Afrikaner identity that has hitherto
been ignored.<br>AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Ten spyte van die omvang van Afrikaanse tekste oor musiek is daar in die hedendaagse tyd
min musiekwetenskaplike diskoerse in Suid-Afrika wat bemoeienis maak met inhoude en
bydraes wat in Afrikaans gemaak is. Hierdie Afrikaanse tekste besit die potensiaal om nie net
musiekhistoriografie nie, maar ook algemene historiografie in Suid-Afrika meer geskakeerd in
te klee. Die studie handel oor die musiekartikels in die volgende Afrikaanse tydskrifte en dagblaaie van die vroeg twintigste eeu: Die Brandwag (1910-1921), Die Burger (1915-1948),
Die Huisgenoot (1916-1948), Die Nuwe Brandwag (1929-1933), Die Brandwag (1937-1948)
en Die Transvaler (1937-1948)
'n Groot gedeelte van hierdie musiekverwante artikels bespreek onderwerpe uit die
geskiedenis van Wes-Europese kunsmusiek. Dit sluit onder meer in komponis-biografieë,
sowel as geskiedenisse van stilistiese periodes, genres en instrumente. Die Afrikaner se
belangstelling in Europa grens soms aan =n gevoel van Europese solidariteit, ten spyte van die
fisieke afstand tussen Europa en Afrika. Hierdie kosmopolitiese denkwyse verdwyn dikwels
op die agtergrond ten gunste van ander temas soos ras, taal en nasionalisme in twintigste
eeuse Suid-Afrikaanse musiekhistoriografie. 'n Verwaarloosde Afrikaanse diskoers oor
musiek bied 'n geleentheid om moontlikhede van kosmopolitisme te ondersoek in 'n verdere
interpretasie van Afrikaner identiteit en Suid-Afrikaanse geskiedenis. Dit is om hierdie rede
dat die huidige studie idees van kosmopolitisme wil ondersoek ten einde die rol van die
musiekdiskoers in die Afrikaner gemeenskap tussen 1910 en 1948 te bepaal.
Die huidige studie steun op twee teoretiese modelle van kosmopolitisme soos afgelei
uit die werk van Friedriech Meinecke ('n Duitse geskiedkundige van die vroeg twintigste eeu)
en Kwame Anthony Appiah (hedendaagse filosoof). Meinecke se werk fokus hoofsaaklik op
die rol wat kosmopolitiese waardes gespeel het in die ontwikkeling van die nasie-staat, met
spesifieke verwysing na Duitsland van die laat agtiende eeu tot die laat negentiende eeu. Wat
Appiah aantrek tot die idee van kosmopolitisme is die vryheid wat dit aan die individu bied
om haar eie identiteit te skep. Om 'n wêreldburger te wees dui nie noodwendig op 'n
ongewortelde bestaan nie, maar laat enigeen toe om 'n patrioot te wees in die land van haar
keuse.
Meinecke en Appiah se teorieë van kosmopolitisme, hul onderskeie posisionerings
van die individu, die nasie en die wêreld en die snypunte tussen hierdie sfere, bied twee
teoretiese raamwerke vir die huidige skrywer se interpretasies van die materiaal wat vir
hierdie studie versamel is. Die argument word gemaak dat kosmopolitisme 'n gepasde teorie
bied om voorheen geïgnoreerde elemente van Afrikaner identiteit te ontbloot.

Rice, M. T. "Escalation of commitment behaviour : a critical, prescriptive historiography." Thesis, Coventry University, 2010. http://curve.coventry.ac.uk/open/items/4a1d1bfe-f361-4f8f-3fdd-132444afcaf8/1.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Escalation of Commitment (EoC) behaviour occurs when a Decision Making Unit (DMU), such as an individual or group, continues with a course of action despite receiving negative feedback about it. Much research exists, within multiple disciplines, which attempts to explain why DMUs continue with failing courses of action. To date however, there has been very little critical inquiry of such research. Using a historical research approach, this thesis reviews and critically assesses all existing EoC behaviour research and concludes that a number of serious issues exist. These include the use of multiple labels by authors to describe the phenomenon; the considerable uncertainty that exists regarding which DMUs are subject to EoC behaviour; the existence of multiple, concurrent definitions for each ‘theory label’ and important EoC behaviour concepts, such as escalation, DMU, resource, success, failure and commitment, not being adequately defined. It is contended that these and other issues exist primarily because of the scope of the phenomenon and the resultant high quantity and complexity of research; all of which impair research technique. However, independent, pre-existing research technique issues are also proposed as reasons. Ultimately, it is argued that the state of EoC behaviour research is poor. It is considered that the mere recognition of the issues raised in this thesis will assist in the improvement of the research. Yet this aspect in isolation is deemed inadequate. In response, a prescriptive technique is developed which is bifurcated between resolutely defining the important concepts related to EoC behaviour research and creating an ‘integrated framework’ which includes all existing EoC behaviour determinants from all research disciplines. The proposed framework also identifies a number of new potential determinants of EoC behaviour, including the Autoepistemic Sunk Cost Effect (ASCE), the age of the DMU and anthropomorphic revenge motives. It is suggested that these two prescriptive responses will also promote focussed future EoC behaviour research, designated in the thesis as research direction. This thesis contributes to existing knowledge by not only recognising research issues that have not previously been acknowledged but also by prescribing for these issues through a complete concept exploration, coupled with a complete collective framework.

Browne, Victoria. "Feminist historiography and the reconceptualisation of historical time." Thesis, University of Liverpool, 2013. http://livrepository.liverpool.ac.uk/9297/.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This thesis conducts a reconceptualisation of historical time as a means of reorienting feminist historiography and changing the ways that we construct and approach histories of feminism. Various feminist theorists have argued that feminist theory requires a multilinear, multidirectional model of historical time, to enable productive encounters and exchanges between past and present feminisms, and account for the coexistence of parallel, intersecting feminist trajectories. This is particularly crucial in light of the continuing dominance of the phasic ‘wave’ model of feminist history, which is bound to notions of linear succession and teleological progress, and severely curtails the ways in which diverse feminist histories can be mapped, understood and related to one another. However, whilst alternative, multilinear, multidirectional notions of historical time have been mooted, there is rarely any clarity or elaboration on what exactly what this might mean or how it might work. This, I suggest, is because ‘historical time’ is itself an under-investigated and under-articulated concept. My contribution in this thesis, therefore, is to offer a detailed study of historical time, which makes sense of the idea that historical time is multilinear and multidirectional. In the course of this investigation, I develop a ‘polytemporal’ model of historical time, arguing that historical time is generated through a mix of different temporalities and fields of time, including the ‘time of the trace’, ‘narrative time’, ‘calendar time’ and ‘generational time’. Analysing each of these ‘times’ in turn, the thesis offers a thorough and internally complex account of historical time, demonstrating how thinking history ‘polytemporally’ can work, and how historical time can be understood as multilinear and multidirectional. Further, it offers concrete suggestions as to how this reconceptualised model can translate into a more nuanced and effective feminist historiographical practice, which opens up conversations between past and present feminisms in order to positively transform our presents and futures.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The Khārijites are usually regarded as the first faction to separate from the early Islamic community. They are viewed as rebels and heretics, constituting the first sect within early Islam. This thesis seeks to examine the narrative role and function of Khārijism in the historiographical tradition of the formative period of Islam. To that end, it looks at the major Islamic chronicles of the 3rd and 4th centuries AH/9th and 10th centuries CE and investigates their portrayal of Khārijite history. The analysis covers the period from the apparent emergence of the Khārijites at the Battle of Ṣiffīn in 37 AH/657 CE until the death of the Umayyad caliph ʿAbd al-Malik b. Marwān in 86 AH/705 CE. The thesis’ methodological approach is based on the premise that the historiographical works under study need to be approached as literary artefacts, as texts rather than databanks that can be mined for hard facts in order to reconstruct early Islamic and thus Khārijite history ‘as it really was’. This literary analysis of the source material on Khārijism leads to two major conclusions: first, there is hardly any narrative substance to the Khārijites as presented in the sources. Instead, the reports on Khārijite activities are mostly made up of structural components such as names and dates on the one hand, and topoi and schemata on the other. Consequently, no distinct and tangible identity, literary or otherwise, emerges from the material, pointing out the pitfalls of positivist approaches to Khārijite history and by extension early Islamic history in general. This phenomenon is directly connected to the second conclusion: the historiographical sources approach Khārijism not as an end in itself, but as a narrative tool with which to illustrate, discuss and criticize other actors and subject matters. The thesis is divided into six chapters. Chapters One and Two address those characteristics of and topoi in the representation of Khārijism that pervade the source material across the entire period investigated here. It emerges that the historiographers’ major concern in the depiction of Khārijism is the discussion of the perils of the rebels’ militant piety that threatens the unity and stability of the Islamic community. Chapters Three to Five look at the periods of ʿAlī’s caliphate, Muʿāwiya’s rule and the second fitna as well as t he reign of ʿAbd al-Malik, respectively, and identify the specific narrative purposes of Khārijism in the portrayal of each period. Chapter Six offers a number of observations on the early historiographical tradition as derived from the analysis over the preceding five chapters, addressing issues such as whether it makes sense to distinguish between proto-Sunnī and proto-Shīʿī sources. The Conclusion summarizes the main findings of this thesis and provides some suggestions regarding future research on Khārijite history and thought as well as early Islamic history in general.

South Africa has had three periods of historiographical change. As South Africa has
transitioned from colonialism, to apartheid, to democracy, historiography has been
influenced by those in power. Post-1994 and with the onset of a democratic
government, the Nation sought to create a new historiographical framework. However,
as this attempt to build a National historiography developed questions could be raised
as to whether this historiography was inclusive of a variety of sources?
This dissertation looks at three areas regarding South African historiography. First, the
current role of Churches in South Africa in fostering historiography. Second, the
theological framework of "Ras, Volk en Nasie", the "Kairos Document", and the "Belhar
Confession". Third, the depiction of South Africa by the Church of Scotland's National
magazine "Life and Work" during 1975 – 1985.
By looking at this time period, the thesis shows that as various strands of theology
developed in South Africa, these changes had connotations within the Church of
Scotland. Life and Work shows a distinct change in attitude towards the Dutch
Reformed Church and the Black Consciousness movement.
It argues that underrepresented stories about South Africa allow for a holistic
historiography. Churches in South Africa have an opportunity to use their position
within society to develop this holistic historiography and thus, historiography becomes
a practical theological issue.<br>Dissertation (MTh)--University of Pretoria, 2017.<br>Church History and Church Policy<br>MTh<br>Unrestricted

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Based on historical and musicological texts and acts from the nineteenth to twenty-first century, this thesis proposes the concept of plastic resistance as an epistemological method to analyse the psychical and political perceptions of Beethoven’s life and music. Relying on the philosophy of Fichte and Lacan, I contend that the psychopolitics of this reception/resistance history is predicated critically on the musicians’ and listeners’ ability and affect to posit musical semantics unconsciously. I further argue that, during the negotiation of mastery, autonomy and subjectivity, the musical acts of composing, analysing and performing are influenced by psychical and political aesthetics. These affective resistances are buttressed by the psychoanalytical structures of neurosis, psychosis and perversion. The thesis is divided into five chapters with the first two chapters setting the historical and theoretical backgrounds to various subjective actions and reactions that have created or destroyed musical meaning. The rest of the thesis place specific focus on more recent approaches to Beethoven’s piano sonatas and string quartets, as well as the plastic properties of their material resistance. In the first chapter, I trace a macrohistory of Beethoven reception in Western Europe and the United States from the nineteenth century to the present day. After an explication of the theoretical constitutions of the psychical resistance and the musical unconscious, I apply the ideas of inclusive and extractive resistances to show how the different attitudes towards Beethoven’s music result in creative and destructive institutions of musical hermeneutics. I reinforce the thesis of plastic resistance in the subsequent three chapters. First, the act of notation as embodied in sketch processes traverses the imaginary, fantasmatic and hysterical phases, but only a mode of critical mastery can direct listeners towards sound musical knowledge. Second, the dialectical nature of musical meaning readily predetermines the psychotic capacity of the analytic act; analysts arguably become occupied with negotiating their semantic uncertainty with chance operations. Finally, musicians embody a form of performative perversion by externalising their plastic intimacy through affective gestures and subjective speech acts during rehearsals, interpretations, and performances. In conclusion, plastic resistance has exerted a significant psychopolitical force and transformed the epistemologies of Beethoven historiography.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The theoretical framework of this study is intended to explore the potential Alain Badiou's theory of event, truth, and faithful subject may provide for understanding literature. This study applies this framework to John Ruskin's late and lesser-known work Fors Clavigera: Letters to the Workmen and Labourers of Great Britain (1871-1884). Both Ruskin's fragmented style in Fors Clavigera and his notion of historical truth developed therein have been read as madness and as reactionary romanticism. I examine key metanarrative moments in Fors Clavigera where Ruskin reflects on his historiographical choices and methods. Through my analysis, I show how Badiou's theory provides a way of better understanding Ruskin's historiography as deliberately purposeful and philosophically engaging.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
John Dewey was America's foremost authority on many of the critical issues in the twentieth century. Dewey dedicated his professional career as an expert on the major branches of philosophy.
A neglected aspect of Dewey's philosophy is his writings on historiography, the philosophy of history, and his influence on American historians. Dewey affected several generations of historians from the Progressive historians to the practical realists of today.
This study evaluates Dewey's pragmatism as a legitimate strain in American historiography. James Harvey Robinson and Charles Beard claimed Dewey as an influence. Later historians such as Richard Hofstadter and Joyce Appleby insist his methods make for more responsible-minded historians.
There is enough material from American historians to assert that Dewey and Deweyan pragmatism influenced and still impacts historians into the twenty-first century.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The Mamluk Sultanate that dominated Egypt and Syria over slightly more than two centuries and a half (647-922/1250-1517), witnessed the development of a prodigious historiographical production. While the historiography of the Turkish Mamluk period (647-792/1250-1382) has been the object of thorough analyses to determine the patterns of interrelations amongst its authors and the respective value of its most important sources, that of the Early Circassian Mamluk period (roughly, the last quarter of the fourteenth/eighth and the first years of the fifteenth/ninth centuries) has not as of yet received proper attention. In this dissertation, this historiographical production has been surveyed and subjected to an analysis, the methodology of which was pioneered by Donald P. Little, one that consists of close word-by-word comparison of individual accounts in the works of Syrian and Egyptian authors who wrote about this period. The focus here was on specifically non-biographical historical material contained in mostly annalistic works. Amongst the results obtained during this research was the ultimate reliance, at different degrees and depths, of all historians on the works of five authors, namely Ibn Duqmaq (d. 809/1407), Ibn al-Furat (d. 807/1405), Ibn Hijji (d. 816/1413), al-Maqrizi (d. 845/1441) and al-'Ayni (d. 855/1451), but especially the first three.
