Ideas in the Medieval West

Ideas in the Medieval West

Valerie I.J. Flint

Variorum
1988
sidottu
Without denying the real importance of the more ’traditional’ tasks of a historian of ideas or scholar of literature - the edition of a text and research into its sources and influence - Professor Flint’s objective has been to look sideways from the texts, so into the society to which their authors belonged. Her conviction is that no text, and so no idea to which it gave flight, can be properly understood unless it is placed firmly within its immediate historical context, including, of course, consideration of the patrons who bore the expense of producing such works. Within this framework, the author’s attention is directed above all at the ’Christian propaganda’ - the messages a pastor strove to impart - of the 11th-12th centuries, and the reactions discernable within these to Judaism and, even more, - evident even in scientific treatises - to the continued vitality of pagan beliefs and superstitions.

"They told me I wouldn't live to be 2 yrs. old because they found me starving on someone's porch.... I'm 55 now.... They told me I wasn't smart enough and that I didn't need a higher education...... I have an AA, BS and MS. They told me I would never be part of anything worthwhile. I'm a member of MD-Military-Holding-Lodge No. 122 - MWPHGL of Maryland, The Monday Cub (Oldest Social Club for African-American Men in Delaware and maybe the Nation--1876) recently resigned, The Drill Sergeant Association, and Bethel AME Church to name a few. They told me the Army wasn't the way to go and I was wasting my time and the organization wouldn't teach me anything. I was Squad Leader, Platoon Sergeant, Detachment NCOIC, CID Investigator, Drill Sergeant and an EO Advisor for 5,000 Soldiers and Civilians just to name a few. It has taught me a lot. They told me I couldn't run a full marathon. I finished in the top half. They told me I was too small for martial arts--I received a 2nd degree black belt in Hapkido and a Red Sash (Chamber 5) in Kung-Fu. They told me that I will fail in life. The Lord has blessed me with a lovely wife, four grown men (sons), a lovely stepdaughter, and six grandchildren. It was rough getting there, but I'm here." (Started from the bottom) They told me I would never, never find my bloodline. Well, I found my birth mother, father, sisters and brothers and a host of cousins and combined my bloodline to my family that raised me and taught me everything I needed to know about life altogether into one big happy family. I now have two mothers and fathers. THANK YOU FOR TELLING ME THOSE THINGS.... KEEP YOUR HEAD UP, AND LIVE YOUR DREAMS. MAKE NO EXCUSES....
Diary of an Uncertain Psychic

In Diary of an Uncertain Psychic, artist-anthropologist Deena I.J. Newman explores the life and lessons of Elizabeth, a California psychic and radio talk show host. Following the thread of spontaneous inner images, she ties together personal stories and fieldwork experiences in Israel, Ethiopia and the United States. Through vivid graphic narrative, this detailed account tells a story about images through images. In Western culture, the phenomenon of spontaneous inner imagery is often considered unusual or abnormal. Newman challenges this perspective by suggesting that many people experience spontaneous visual, auditory, and kinesthetic imagery and contends that such imagery may be a potential key to understanding psychic and mental processes. She shows how these images may be interpreted differently across different cultures – as spiritual messages, omens, sources of scientific and artistic inspiration, psychological insights, symptoms of mental illness, or simply nonsensical productions of the mind. In visualizing these images on the page, this book invites readers to delve deeper into the complexities of inner imagery – both within psychics and within themselves. Newman illustrates the film-like inner images commonly experienced yet frequently overlooked, revealing the uncertainty involved in translating between images and words. By analyzing Elizabeth’s and her own experiences, Newman underscores the challenges inherent in this translation process.

It is to everyone's benefit for us to have a world of peace and for that reason we must individually seek to identify and confront whatever threatens the prospects of our continuous existence in peace, irrespective of how far it might be from us at the time. The rights enshrined in treaties as individual human rights in various covenants of the United Nations such as the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, ICCPR, (1966) and International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, ICESCR, (1966) are meant to protect and secure people within the territories and governments of the States parties that rectified those covenants with the United Nations. Most people today might have forgotten that just about 400 years ago, the European nations fought a thirty years' religious war (1618 - 1648) that ended with the treaty of Westphalia. Consequently, what is now manifesting as acts of gross human rights violations, and crimes against humanity perpetrated by States that are democratic governments as well as States that are operating religious nationalism, with a menace to the peace and security of the international committee, is watched with passive interest by those who are yet to be affected. Whether it is the United States leading NATO to invade and destroy Libya and render its citizens victims of gross human rights violations, or Russia invading Ukraine in a war of intentional act of aggression and human rights violations, or the Taliban in Afghanistan stripping off the women and girls of Afghanistan of their human rights, the threat to the International Community should be a matter of concern for all. The United Nations Security Council and General Assembly, have a responsibility to devise a means of attending to these threats under the provisions of its Charter.

1.1. THE GROWTH OF TOWNS IN CAMEROON EXHIBITS SPECIAL AND PECULIAR CHARACTERISTICS There are, in the first place, tendencies at work which are reminiscent of the historen of Foumban. an East-Cameroonian town which devel­ oped independentlen of western influences. Situated at a great distance from the sea, this town resembles in many ways a typical European mediaeval city bustling with the activities of guilds and craftsmen living in their different quarters according to their own codes of conduct. Other tendencies at work are those of the traditional structures and authority patterns of the rural family. These have been brought to the towns by the many immigrants from the countryside who in their bewilderment and relative impotence fall back on the old tribal rela­ tionships and traditions which guarantees them parasitic support. There are, above all, new tendencies, unknown in the West, which are caused by the formation of groups at different levels, whose size, composition and sudden formation are quite unique: The youth who proportionately dominate the population pyramid and thus make inordinate demands on state-and family-budgetts. The minor officials and the new money elite, who form a new and frequently corrupt top layer. The young adults who are unemployed or unable to find work of the kind they like. The girls and women who make a living by prostitution in such different ways that the very concept of prostitution becomes vague.

An erotic retelling of Emily Brontë's timeless Wuthering Heights, this reimagining reveals the dark passion and dangerous obsession between Catherine and Heathcliff-the original morally gray hero-in all its forbidden glory. Readers have been enthralled by Emily Brontë's classic novel of the tragic love between beautiful, spirited Catherine Earnshaw and dark, brooding alpha Heathcliff-the restrained desire between the two star-crossed lovers has always smoldered on the page. Now, I.J. Miller invites you back to the stark, raw beauty of the English moors to revisit their explosive love story, leaving nothing left to the imagination ... you've never experienced Wuthering Heights with this much heat. Heathcliff, an orphan, recognizes his soulmate in wild, impulsive Catherine, the only woman who can tame his self-destructive nature. And Catherine cannot deny the all-consuming desire she feels for him, despite his low birth. Together they engage in a fiery affair-one that will possess them, enslave them, and change their destinies forever ... I.J. Miller's adaptation will leave you breathless. Wuthering Nights is not your grandmother's version of the story-and definitely NSFW.
