Dionysos (Dionysus)
Authors: Leeming David Adams 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
It was told that they [the Titans] surprised the child-god as he was playing with the toys. Jealous Hera had instigated them to this: ... The Titans had whitened their faces with chalk. They came like spirits of the dead from the Underworld, to which Zeus had banished them. They attacked the playing boy, tore him into seven pieces and threw these into a cauldron standing on a tripod. When the flesh was boiled, they began roasting it over the fire on seven spits.
Hiiaka And Lohiau
Authors: Leeming David Adams 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
After celebrating his recovery with feasts and sacrifices to the gods, Lohiau announced to the chiefs of his kingdom that he was about to visit his wife, whose home was on Hawaii, and that he should leave the government of the island in the hands of his friend, the high chief Paoa, to whom he enjoined the fealty and respect of all during his absence.
Heracles (Hercules)
Authors: Leeming David Adams 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Now had come the time for the twelfth and last of the labours that Hercules did for his master Eurystheus. This labour would seem to anyone by far the hardest; for the hero was commanded to descend into the lower world, and bring back with him from the kingdom of Proserpine the terrible three-headed watch-dog Cerberus.
Izanagi And Izanami
Authors: Leeming David Adams 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Izanami continued producing a variety of divinities: the sea, the waves, the mountains, and so on, until finally she brought forth the god of Fire. The private parts of the August Female were so burned in giving birth to this last divinity, that she mortally sickened, and various other divinities came into existence from her vomit (mountains), her offal (mud), and her 5 urine. At last she dies. Izanagi is sick with rage and despair, and as he creeps around her pillow, lamenting, still other divinities spring into existence from his tears.
Heracles (Hercules)
Authors: Leeming David Adams 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Now, Zeus had destined Heracles as one of the Twelve Olympians, yet was lath to expel any of the existing company of gods in order to make room for him. He therefore persuaded Hera to adopt Heracles by a ceremony of rebirth: namely, going to bed, pretending to be in labour, and then producing him from beneath her skirts-which is the adoption ritual s still in use among many barbarian tribes. Henceforth, Hera regarded Heracles as her son and loved him next only to Zeus.
Bear Man
Authors: Leeming David Adams 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
A man went hunting in the mountains and came across a black bear, which he wounded with an arrow. The bear turned and started to run the other way, and the hunter followed, shooting one arrow after another into it without bringing it down. Now, this was a medicine bear, and could talk or read the thoughts of people without their saying a word. At last he 5 stopped and pulled the arrows out of his side and gave them to the man, saying, “It is of no use for you to shoot at me, for you can not kill me. Come to my house and let us live together.” The hunter thought to himself, “He may kill me,” but the bear read his thoughts and said, “No, I won’t hurt you.” The man thought again, “How can I get anything to eat?” but 10 the bear knew his thoughts, and said, “There shall be plenty.” So the hunter went with the bear.
Moses
Authors: Leeming David Adams 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
In the meanwhile Moses’ time was at an end. A voice from heaven resounded, saying: “Why, Moses, dost thou strive in vain? Thy last second is at hand.” Moses instantly stood up for prayer, and said: “Lord of the world! Be mindful of the day on which Thou didst reveal Thyself to me in the bush of thorns, and be mindful also of the day when I ascended into heaven and during forty days partook of neither food nor drink. Thou, Gracious and Merciful, deliver me not into the hand of Samael.”
Abraham
Authors: Leeming David Adams 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
So Michael turned the chariot, and brought Abraham to the place of judgment of all souls. Here he saw two gates, the one broad and the other narrow, the narrow gate that of the just, which leads to life, they that enter through it go into Paradise. The broad gate is that of sinners, which leads to destruction and eternal punishment. Then Abraham wept, saying, “Woe is me, what shall I do? for I am a man big of body, and how shall I be able to enter by the narrow gate?” Michael answered, and said to Abraham, “Fear not, nor grieve, for thou shalt enter by it unhindered, and all they who are like thee.”
Heracles (Hercules)
Authors: Leeming David Adams 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
And now Hercules himself cut down the trees on high Oeta, and with their trunks made a great funeral pyre. He was aided by his friend Philoctetes, who lit the pyre and to whom, as a reward, Hercules gave the famous bow which later was to go to Troy. Now, at the point of death, with burnt and withered flesh, Hercules grew calm again. On top of the pyre he spread the skin of the Nemean lion. He rested his head on his club as on a pillow, and lay down among the flames with peaceful face, as if, after cups of fine wine and crowned with garlands, he were lying on a couch at a banquet.
Jesus

Published: November 2023

Abstract
Now upon the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they came unto the sepulchre, bringing the spices which they had prepared, and certain others with them. And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulchre. And they entered in, and found not the body of the Lord Jesus. And it came to pass, as they were much perplexed thereabout, behold, two men stood by them in shining garments: and as they were afraid, and bowed down their faces to the earth, they said unto them, Why seek ye the And as they thus spake, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.
Introduction
Authors: Jařab Josef 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
It should not be too surprising that the terms “modern,” “modernity,” and “modernization” have in the ever growing bulk of critical literature manifested a great deal of openness, indeed a yielding elasticity, when we realize that the very idea at the core of all these phenomena is change. And the dynamic changes themselves that our world witnessed through the early as well as the latter decades of the twentieth century have certainly further contributed to the difficulties marking the effort to define the terms, or, at least, to provide a conceptual description that would bring us closer to a better and fuller understanding of the experience or conceits they should describe. As a matter of fact, all the various concepts of the modern not only reflect changing historical circumstances but are themselves in the ongoing discussion becoming gradually more complex, both in content and application.
Svetasvatara Upanisad
Authors: Olivelle Patrick 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
The Svetasvatara Upanisad, traditionally ascribed to the Black Yajurveda, is a somewhat late text composed under the influence of both the Sarpkhya-Yoga tradition and the emerging theistic tendencies. Its thought and vocabulary are close to those of the other famous theistic document, the Bhagavad Gita. Just like the latter text, the SU appears somewhat chaotic in its presentation because it seeks to integrate numerous and divergent cosmologies and theologies into its religious doctrine. Further, the numerous citations from older vedic texts indicate that the author is attempting to support his doctrines with vedic proof-texts, often presented with new interpretations. It is clear, however, that a major aim of the author is to establish that the God who creates and from whom one expects salvation is one. This point is driven home by the repeated use of the term eka, “one” or “alone.” This Upanisad is named after the teacher of its doctrine, one Svetiisvatara (lit., “man with a white mule”). In his recent study, Oberlies (1988) argues against the commonly held conception that the SU is a “chaotic accumulation of different text-layers” and attempts to demonstrate that the Upanisad is a uniform text presenting a teaching on the god Rudra by amalgamating him with the vedic god Agni.
Fixity And Fluidity In The Narrative Trajectory Of The Acts Of Peter
Authors: Thomas Christine M 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
If fluidity is characteristic of the transmission of the Actus Vercellenses, what was it about this text-and texts like it-that attracted this degree of literary activity? The numerous changes in form and language point to the function of this text for its audience: they tell something about the reception of the text, how its ancient audiences approached and appropriated it. Even at the level of the Actus Vercellenses, there is a marked tendency to alter the text in the course of transmission, whether by translation or excerpting. The text is behaving similarly to oral tradition, with each manuscript representing a new “performance” of the work in another context. Yet this occurs on the level of a written text.
All Nice Wives Are Like That
Authors: North Michael 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Any Number Of writers might have looked back at 1922 as a year of important beginnings, but perhaps only Willa Cather looked at it as a definitive end. In a book of essays published in 1936 under the defensive title of Not Under Forry, Cather announced, “The world broke in two in 1922 or thereabouts, and the persons and prejudices recalled in these sketches slid back into yesterday’s seven thousand years.”1 Though it has always been hard for Cather scholars to explain why she placed this watershed so precisely in 1922, it is not hard to see what it divided. The preface starkly distinguishes the “forward-goers” from “the backward” and ironically addresses itself only to the latter. In this rather chilly way, Cather invites into her book only those readers pleased to have passed forty and proud to be numbered among the “backward;’
The “Tragic Octoroon” in Pre-Civil War Fiction *
Authors: Zanger Jules 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
One of the most important characters of pre-Civil War Abolitionist fiction was the “tragic octoroon.” Presented first in the earliest antislavery novel, The Slave (1836), the character appeared in more than a dozen other works. To sum up, then, the popularity of the tragic octoroon character in pre-Civil War antislavery fiction cannot be explained by suggesting she was simply the nearest thing to a Negro that Northern authors and audiences could wax sentimental about. The attack on the slavery system mounted by the creators of the tragic octoroon was specifically directed toward certain sins implicit in that institution, was particularly appropriate to the audience which it was intended to move and was firmly based on the regional attitudes and moral values of that audience.
Of African Queens and Afro-American Princes and Princesses: Miscegenation in Old Hepsy *
Authors: Vauthier Simone 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
By 1858, when Mrs. C. W. Denison published Old Hepsy,1 the antislavery novel was a well-established sub-genre. It had its stock characters and its archetypes; especially when written by women, it tended to be firmly centered in the family circle2 and to exploit tear-jerking situations, thus overlapping the “domestic and sentimental novel”; and insofar as it often depicted a tragic octoroon girl, persecuted by a lecherous master who was as likely as not bloodkin to her in the setting of an isolated plantation, it blended motifs and figures inherited both from Richprinces and princesses whom the culture has borne only to deny them full participation in the genealogical line of power are still with us. Nor have the “white Negroes,” princely yet still debarred from their high inheritance-exiles in the American mythical homeland-ceased to figure in the fantasmatic dramas which literature stages for the benefit alike of self and society. Whether as Kingsblood Royal in Sinclair Lewis’ novel of the same title, or as the sophisticated Charles Bon in Faulkner’s Absalom Absalom! (whose fate bears some little resemblance to Hollister’s) or as Amantha Starr in Robert Penn Warren’s Band of Angels, to mention but a few, they still haunt the white “city of words,” still ask the reader to decipher the riddle of America and the riddle of the sphinx.

O peaking on behalf of my species, there’s no locomotive machine like man. I say this on my own account, because with only a few ounces of impulsion I’ve run, for many days, step for step with another machine moved by the force of a hundred or more horses, including its captain and subjects.
Moral Thinking in Management: An Essential Capability
Authors: Paine Lynn Sharp 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
In recent years, many corporate leaders have begun to pay serious attention to ethics.1 Some have introduced special ethics or values programs in their organizations. Many have created corporate ethics offices, board-level ethics committees, or company task forces to deal with difficult ethical issues their companies are facing. Training programs to heighten awareness of ethical issues and integrate ethical considerations into decision making are becoming more common. Such company initiatives vary widely in their design and effectiveness. But most of them rest on the idea that attention to ethics will strengthen the organization and contribute to its performance in the marketplace. In short, many are coming to believe that ethics is good for business.

W. E. B. Du Bois’s Tropical Critique of U.S. Imperialism
Authors: Rowe John Carlos 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Throughout his long career and its many different phases, W. E. B. Du Bois repeatedly criticized the United States for pursuing imperialist aims both at home and abroad. He also is one of the few modern American intellectuals to understand U.S. Imperialism to differ from earlier forms of Eurocolonialism and to antedate considerably the Spanish- American War. For Du Bois, U.S. Imperialism originates in slavery and depends on racism to legitimate colonial practices of territorial conquest, economic domination, and psychological subjugation. William Dean Howells and Mark Twain had criticized the United States for following the leads of England, Spain, and Germany in expansionist ventures around the globe, and Twain certainly understood slavery in the United States to be a colonial phenomenon. Nevertheless, slavery is for Twain a venerable example of human cruelty and just another reminder of how little we have progressed from our feudal past.In its larger aspects the style is lropical-Afrinin. This needs no apology.
Introduction: The Study of Rennyo
Authors: Blum Mark L 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
In the annals of Japanese history, Rennyo (1415-1499) is a figure of enormous influence known primarily for fashioning the Honganji branch of Jodoshinshu into an institution of growing strength at a time when so many others were weakened by profound political, social, and economic disruption, including ten years of civil war. Rennyo created or was at the forefront of new paradigms of religion, economics, and social structure that not only enabled him and his church to survive violent attacks but led to the accruing of unprecedented power and influence among all classes of society, from peasants to courtiers. As a result Rennyo is seen by some as a savior figure, by others as an ambitious daimyo. The more sympathetic view regards him as the “Second Founder of Jodoshinshu,” who not only saved the sect from destruction by its enemies but also, through his energetic and inspired leadership, united many of its disparate communities under the institutional banner of Honganji, put it on sound financial footing, rightly established it as the dominant branch of the sectarian legacy of Shinshu founder Shinran (1173-1262), and in the end ensured the survival of Shin Buddhism as a whole. The less sympathetic view sees Rennyo as a skilled politician who distorted many of Shinran’s philosophical positions in order to create a massive feudal institution of significant wealth, financially fueled by ignorant populations of believers in whose eyes Rennyo had the power to determine their postmortem fate.
The Ikkō-shū as Portrayed in Jesuit Historical Documents
Authors: Londo Kinyru Shizuka 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Certain Jesuit historical documents are a valuable resource for remedying this lacuna. Francis Xavier first arrived in Kagoshima in 1549, fifty years after the death of Rennyo. From that time on, many missionaries energetically spread Catholic teachings throughout Kyushu and Shikoku and the Kinai region of Japan. These missionaries made a large number of minutely detailed reports concerning the state of the various Buddhist schools they encountered, including information about their teachings. Records of this sort reach into the first half of the seventeenth century, but because the purpose of this chapter is to illuminate the situation of the ikko-shu during the Sengoku era, it will survey only those records covering the century following the death of Rermyo, that is, up to the end of the sixteenth century.

The Phantoms at San Luis Rey
Authors: Carrillo Adolfo 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Friar Pedro Somera, Prior of the San Luis Rey Mission, was leaving the Refectory, where he had just enjoyed a large break fast, and proceeded to make his way along the broad arches that bordered the vegetable garden. With one hand, he held his Breviary, and with the other, he patted his belly, as if to tell it, “Look how stuffed you are! If you keep that up, we’ll have to roll around instead of walk.” Later, feeling tired, he stretched out in his favorite hammock, drawing in great whiffs of the fragrant air that wafted through the flower gardens.

Abstract
El hombre manda y la mujer gobierna-man rules and woman governs. This Spanish proverb accurately describes the balance of power in our family when my siblings and I were growing up. Although our father was the titular head, our mother ran the household and made most of the day-to-day decisions. If Gustavo was king, Nena was the prime minister. Both in Cuba and in Miami, she was the one who answered our questions, the one who solved problems and averted catastrophes.
Afterword
Authors: Murphy G Ronald 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
As a poet and storyteller he would deny that he was a theologian. Still he has insights that awaken even the theologian. His love of the Two Great Commandments as the key to faith in this life and in an afterlife led him to unusual poetic realizations with the help of the fairy tales. One of these is surely that there is a secret alliance between love and inner beauty on the one hand, and the continuation of life, communion of saints, on the other. Love and life go together and stay together. The God who is love in St. John’s Gospel is not stopped by graves.
Dramatic Development as a Sense of Tradition
Authors: Thiel John E 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
The close relationship shared by the first two senses of tradition derives from their common concern for tradition’s abiding movement. The literal sense finds tradition’s meaning in its durable beliefs, doctrines, and practices, those that have shown themselves to last. By lasting, these beliefs, doctrines, and practices attest to their truthfulness as the Word of God believed and enacted in the Church. This study’s functional approach to the literal sense has called attention to its historical character by noting that the literal sense is not a “letter” preserved to the point of ossification and impervious to history and culture but a sense that flourishes in and through its continual affirmation from time to time and place to place. The sense of development-in-continuity appreciates this developing aspect of the literal sense more than the literal sense does, and in this respect might be conceived as a gloss in sensibility on the more stolid literal sense. The second sense surpasses the literal sense in its esteem for the renewal that any affirmation of constancy entails.
The Problem Of Canonicity
Authors: Backus Irena 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Although, by the early sixteenth century, the Apocalypse had acquired a dubious reputation due partly to the use that radical Franciscans and Hussites made of it, no one since the third century had questioned its place in the canon. The first to do so was Erasmus in his 1516 Annotations. His low view of it was to do partly with the nature of the text itself and partly, no doubt, with the difficulties he had in obtaining a copy of it in 1516. He had previously seen some manuscripts and made notes on them during his visit to England in 1505, but it was only through Johannes Reuchlin that he finally managed to obtain the incomplete twelfth-century manuscript that he published in his Nouum Instrumentum. Reuchlin himself had borrowed the Kommentartext to the commentary of Andreas of Caesarea from the Dominican monastery in Basel. The manuscript, as is well known, lacked Ape 22.16—21,which Erasmus reconstructed. It is commonly supposed that he supplied the missing Greek verses from the Coniplutensian Polyglot in 1527.
Mathematics and the Roots of Postmodern Thought
Authors: Tasić Vladimir 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
This is a charming and insightful contribution to an understanding of the “Science Wars” between postmodernist humanism and science, driving toward a resolution of the mutual misunderstanding that has driven the controversy. It traces the root of postmodern theory to a debate on the foundations of mathematics, early in the 20th century then compares developments in mathematics to what took place in the arts and humanities, discussing issues as diverse as literary theory, arts, and artificial intelligence. This is a straight forward, easily understood presentation of what can be difficult theoretical concepts and demonstrates that a pattern of misreading mathematics can be seen on both the part of science and on the part of postmodern thinking. This is a humorous, playful yet deeply serious look at the intellectual foundations of mathematics for those in the humanities and is the perfect critical introduction to the bases of modernism and postmodernism for those in the sciences.
