Book excerpt: Comment prévoir l’inconnu et contrôler l’inattendu ? Les Anciens ont tenté de répondre à ces questions en interprétant des signes dans lesquels il reconnaissaient des messages divins. Ce recueil permet de comparer la diversité de leurs questionnements dans les sociétés polythéistes ou monothéistes de la Méditerranée antique. Il interroge premièrement la construction rituelle des signes au sein des institutions divinatoires ; deuxièmement, des phénomènes naturels spontanés, qui, apparus hors de toute institution, ont néanmoins valeur de présages ou d’avertissements ; troisièmement, l’intentionnalité manifestée à travers l’intervention divine dans l’histoire des peuples ou les vies singulières ; quatrièmement, l’épistémologie des signes dans des élaborations philosophiques ou théologiques qui éclairent la tension entre données oraculaires et contrôle ritualisé des signes, entre données révélées et argumentations raisonnées visant à neutraliser les injonctions du destin. How to foresee the unknown and master the unexpected? Ancient people tried to answer those questions by interpreting signs considered as divine messages. In this volume, the writers compare and examine this manifold questioning in the polytheistic and monotheistic societies of the ancient Mediterranean Sea. In the first place, it is shown how signs were ritually constructed within instituted practice of divination ; second, how, although some spontaneous natural phenomena appeared out of any instituted context, may nevertheless constitute omens or monition ; third, how the gods’ intervention may reveal a sort of intention in the course of national history or individual life ; finally, the essays study the epistemology of signs at work in some philosophical or theological elaborations, which may enlighten the tension between oracular evidence and ritual control of signs, and between revealed facts and reasoning arguments intending to neutralize the injunctions of the divine.

Book When Form Becomes Substance

Download or read book When Form Becomes Substance written by Luciano Boi and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-11-30 with total page 607 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This interdisciplinary volume collects contributions from experts in their respective fields with as common theme diagrams. Diagrams play a fundamental role in the mathematical visualization and philosophical analysis of forms in space. Some of the most interesting and profound recent developments in contemporary sciences, whether in topology, geometry, dynamic systems theory, quantum field theory or string theory, have been made possible by the introduction of new types of diagrams, which, in addition to their essential role in the discovery of new classes of spaces and phenomena, have contributed to enriching and clarifying the meaning of the operations, structures and properties that are at the heart of these spaces and phenomena. The volume gives a closer look at the scope and the nature of diagrams as constituents of mathematical and physical thought, their function in contemporary artistic work, and appraise, in particular, the actual importance of the diagrams of knots, of braids, of fields, of interaction, of strings in topology and geometry, in quantum physics and in cosmology, but also in theory of perception, in plastic arts and in philosophy. The editors carefully curated this volume to be an inspiration to students and researchers in philosophy, phenomenology, mathematics and the sciences, as well as artists, musicians and the general interested audience.

Book Musique et geste en France de Lully    la R  volution

Download or read book Musique et geste en France de Lully la R volution written by Jacqueline Waeber and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2009 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Domaine partagé entre arts de la scène et arts visuels, l'étude des interactions entre musique et geste est encore peu visitée par la recherche interdisciplinaire. S'adressant à des musicologues, des historiens de l'art, du théâtre et de la danse, le présent ouvrage invite à l'exploration des diverses facettes du jeu scénique, tel que pratiqué sur une période allant de la tragédie lyrique sous le règne de Louis XIV à l'avènement du mélodrame théâtral et à l'essor du Grand Opéra au cours des premières décennies suivant la Révolution. Les treize études de ce volume portent sur l'émergence de nouvelles pratiques dramaturgiques dans le domaine de la danse et du geste au cours des XVIIe et XVIIIe siècles. Sont également mises à jour les influences réciproques entretenues dans la France de l'Ancien Régime avec d'autres courants artistiques, tels que le ballet en action viennois ou les traditions théâtrales foraines héritées de la commedia dell'arte. Le volume est agrémenté de nombreux exemples musicaux, facsimilés et documents iconographiques, et offre en annexe le texte complet de deux pièces inédites, L'Acte Pantomime ou la Comédie sans paroles (1732) et Le Réveil des Vaudevilles (1749).

Book Karel Appel  a gesture of colour

  • Author : Jean-François Lyotard
  • Publisher : Leuven University Press
  • Release : 2009
  • ISBN : 9058677567
  • Pages : 273 pages

Download or read book Karel Appel a gesture of colour written by Jean-François Lyotard and published by Leuven University Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Karel Appel. A gesture of colour is the first of a series of five volumes, bringing together the most important writings of Jean-François Lyotard (1924-1998) on contemporary art and artists. The book he devoted to the art of Karel Appel (1921-2006) is without doubt one of the most complete and inspired texts of all the writing included in the series. Neither the original French manuscript nor the English translation has ever been published before, and their presentation face to face should constitute a considerable plus. In this book, Lyotard presents Karel Appel's "matterism" as an offer of presence, presence deferred -- it is the visual where every predicate is suspended, the visual touched, "gesture" of colour more than property of colour, appearance at the edge of the abyss. Christine Buci-Glucksmann's epilogue situates Karel Appel. A gesture of colour within the whole of Lyotard's writings on art and his subsequent work."--P. [4] of cover.

Book Sign Languages of the World

Download or read book Sign Languages of the World written by Julie Bakken Jepsen and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2015-10-16 with total page 1018 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although a number of edited collections deal with either the languages of the world or the languages of particular regions or genetic families, only a few cover sign languages or even include a substantial amount of information on them. This handbook provides information on some 38 sign languages, including basic facts about each of the languages, structural aspects, history and culture of the Deaf communities, and history of research. This information will be of interest not just to general audiences, including those who are deaf, but also to linguists and students of linguistics. By providing information on sign languages in a manner accessible to a less specialist audience, this volume fills an important gap in the literature.

Book Papers Presented at the Fourteenth International Conference on Patristic Studies Held in Oxford 2003

Download or read book Papers Presented at the Fourteenth International Conference on Patristic Studies Held in Oxford 2003 written by Frances Margaret Young and published by Peeters Publishers. This book was released on 2006 with total page 596 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Papers presented at the Fourteenth International Conference on Patristic Studies held in Oxford 2003 (see also Studia Patristica 39, 40, 41 and 42). The successive sets of Studia Patristica contain papers delivered at the International Conferences on Patristic Studies, which meet for a week once every four years in Oxford; they are held under the aegis of the Theology Faculty of the University. Members of these conferences come from all over the world and most offer papers. These range over the whole field, both East and West, from the second century to a section on the Nachleben of the Fathers. The majority are short papers dealing with some small and manageable point; they raise and sometimes resolve questions about the authenticity of documents, dates of events, and such like, and some unveil new texts. The smaller number of longer papers put such matters into context and indicate wider trends. The whole reflects the state of Patristic scholarship and demonstrates the vigour and popularity of the subject.
