The Tenjukoku Shucho And The Asuka Period Funerary Practices, Maria Del Rosario Pradel Jan 1996

The Tenjukoku Shucho And The Asuka Period Funerary Practices, Maria Del Rosario Pradel

Textile Society of America: Symposium Proceedings

A square support fabric measuring 90 centimeters on each side holds the arbitrarily mounted fragments of an embroidered textile known as the Tenjukoku Shucho or Tenjukoku Mandara. The artifact belongs to Chuguji, a Buddhist temple in Nara prefecture, but it is now housed in the Nara National Museum for preservation purposes.2 Despite their fragmentary condition, it is possible to reconstruct the history of the fragments because of the abundance of documents associated with them. An inscription recorded in an eleventh century document indicates that a shucho ("embroidered curtain") depicting Tenjukoku was made sometime in the Asuka period (538 or …

The Death Wish Of Late Modern Euro-American Culture And The Spiritual Wisdom Of The Ancient Native Peoples, Joe Holland Jan 1996

The Death Wish Of Late Modern Euro-American Culture And The Spiritual Wisdom Of The Ancient Native Peoples, Joe Holland

St. Thomas Law Review

In particular, this article addresses certain negative aspects of Euro-American culture. There are, of course, powerfully positive and creative aspects to this same culture. But if one went to a physician because of lung cancer, one would not wish that the physician devote time to praising the good functioning of one's digestive system. Instead, one would wish that the physician address the life threatening pathology. That is what I will do here.

Nature Among The Mormons: An Ecocritical Approach To Mormon Literature, Gail D. Ballard Jan 1996

Nature Among The Mormons: An Ecocritical Approach To Mormon Literature, Gail D. Ballard

Theses and Dissertations

Increasingly, environmentalists have focused on Judeo-Christian tradition as the cause of Western culture's ecological crisis. It is the purpose of this paper to examine the charges against Judeo-Christian tradition and to show how the revealed doctrines of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints provide possible solutions to environmental challenges. The resulting Latter-day Saint environmental paradigm will be superimposed on selected Mormon literature to determine how effectively the doctrines taught by Church authorities filtered into popular Mormon culture.

Despite the inspired teachings of Latter-day Saint prophets, Mormons remain unimpressive in their environmental practices. My research will show that while …

Practicing And Professing Spirit In Law, Emily A. Hartigan Jan 1996

Practicing And Professing Spirit In Law, Emily A. Hartigan

Faculty Articles

God and femininity share similar positions of marginalization within the law and the legal academy: the classic division between home and business and the “feminine world of morality and love and the realm of “tough” survival skills and competition.” This marginalization, coupled with facets of American traditions, preclude progress from being achieved with respect to either, because neither is significantly part of the American public discourse, and the introduction of either is frowned upon within the academy. This marginalization is evinced by the work of people such as Michael Novak, who painted God as a small-time entrepreneur in his endeavor …

On Being A Muslim Corporate Lawyer, Azizah Y. Al-Hibri Jan 1996

On Being A Muslim Corporate Lawyer, Azizah Y. Al-Hibri

Law Faculty Publications

It appears to me that religion subconsciously informs our individual professional practice and that a non-humanitarian form of secularism has quietly shaped our corporate laws. The attendant dissonance causes severe dissatisfaction, and at times even disfunction, in our society. The claim that our present corporate laws are imbued with a non-humanist secularist perspective deserves closer examination from a religious vantage point. Given our constitutional guarantees, our present legal structure appears to place undue burdens on persons of faith in this country. A more just balance between religious and various forms of secular perspectives is, I submit, a worthy goal for …

Communication Networks And Perceptions Of Social Support As Antecedents To College Adjustment: A Comparison Between Student Commuters And Campus Residents, Lilnabeth P. Somera, Beth Hartman Ellis Jan 1996

Communication Networks And Perceptions Of Social Support As Antecedents To College Adjustment: A Comparison Between Student Commuters And Campus Residents, Lilnabeth P. Somera, Beth Hartman Ellis

Journal of the Association for Communication Administration

This article looks at the impact of social support on college adjustment among traditional campus residents and commuters. One consistent controversy concerning the conceptualization of social support concerns what actions, resources, and outcomes should be considered relevant to the provision of social support. As comparisons are made between commuters and campus residents, it appears that the impact of social support on college adjustment in these populations may vary in terms of which type of social support is relevant to various aspects of adjustment. In the context of commuting students, the availability of informational and instrumental network support and the perception …
