A Mophological Analysis Of Neighborhood Structure - Toles And The Ritual Artifacts Of The Kathmandu Valley Towns - The Cases In Thimi, Mohan Pant, Funo Shuji
A Mophological Analysis Of Neighborhood Structure - Toles And The Ritual Artifacts Of The Kathmandu Valley Towns - The Cases In Thimi, Mohan Pant, Funo Shuji
Manusya, Journal of Humanities
The traditional towns of the Kathmandu Valley are ingrained with varying cultural forms of different historical periods. But the paucity of documented literature and the evident difficulties conducting archaeological work on the existing settlements leave significant gaps in the knowledge of ancient and medieval towns of the Valley. This paper, through the morphological analysis of neighborhood units, known as toles, and their ritual artifacts, of one of the Valley towns—Thimi—attempts to discover the different historical layers of the settlement. In particular, the study finds that the territorial structure of the tole and its ritual artifacts such as the shrine of …
The Emergence Of The Beauty Of The 'Childscape': Rediscovering The Path To The Hidden Dimension Of Architecture For Children, Tipsuda Patumanon
The Emergence Of The Beauty Of The 'Childscape': Rediscovering The Path To The Hidden Dimension Of Architecture For Children, Tipsuda Patumanon
Manusya, Journal of Humanities
A phenomenological writing on the rediscovering the path to the hidden dimension of architecture for children is an attempt to describe the emergence of the beauty of the "childscape". We, as adults, often see our child busily talks to the world. Many stories are created along many paths of his life. What we see depends on how often we give ourselves a chance to look and see… to listen and hear. The voices which come from the distant horizon of our child's world are the same voices with which we once spoke. When there is a fusion of the horizons …

Towards Sustainable Eco-Cultural Tourism For Water ? Based Settlements On The Banks Of Chao Phraya River: Ko Kret, Case Study Nonthaburi Province, Thailand, Suwattana Thadaniti
Manusya, Journal of Humanities
"Ko Kret" is a small island of 4.12 square kilometers in the Cho Phraya River. The community of Ko Kret is a traditional settlement with historical value and identity. The residents are mainly from the Mon ethnic group, and have preserved their culture as expressed beautifully through their lifestyle, architecture and cultural activities, including temples, ancient houses, the style of settlement and the pottery artwork. At present, community development as well as cultural and art conservation facilitate tourism on this island. If the Ko Kret community can both display its way of life and manage the impact of tourism then …
Asian Aesthetic Alive - The Visualising Power Of Contemporary National Style, Mirja Thaulow
Asian Aesthetic Alive - The Visualising Power Of Contemporary National Style, Mirja Thaulow
Manusya, Journal of Humanities
In these times of globalization, it sometimes appears as if all cultural particularities are about to vanish. But, at the same time, a strong current of public affection for national values can be detected all over the world, especially in the visual culture. Here, an international aesthetic of the national is being developed and it can be termed as "the style of the national" or "national style". By employing this term in the analysis of national pictures from two very different Asian countries, Thailand and Uzbekistan, this article will show that Asian aesthetics are very much alive in the present. …
Tripitaka In Practice In The Fourth And Fifth Reigns: Relics And Images According To Somdet Phra Sańgharāja Pussadeva's Pat̥Hamasambodhi Sermon, Prapod Assavavirul-Hakarn, Peter Skilling
Tripitaka In Practice In The Fourth And Fifth Reigns: Relics And Images According To Somdet Phra Sańgharāja Pussadeva's Pat̥Hamasambodhi Sermon, Prapod Assavavirul-Hakarn, Peter Skilling
Manusya, Journal of Humanities
The Tripitaka is not simply an inert collection of manuscripts or books. It is a living thing, a store of ideas that has marked many aspects of social life, from ritual to ethics to mediation practices, to literature, art, and education. The ideas and ideologies of the Tripitaka pervade society. One of the main ways through which the Tripitaka leaves the library and penetrates society is the sermon, which adapts the ideas and ideals of the Tripitaka to suit circumstances and audience. As an example of one sermon genre, the "royally authorized sermon", we translate an excerpt from the Pathamasambodhi …
The Curricular Canon In Northern Thailand And Laos, Justin Mcdanial
The Curricular Canon In Northern Thailand And Laos, Justin Mcdanial
Manusya, Journal of Humanities
Nissaya texts are idiosyncratic vernacular notes composed and used by Buddhist monks in Northern Thailand and Laos between the 16th and early 20th centuries. They evince a particular relationship of the authors with the classical (i.e. originally composed in Pali) scripture of Theravada Buddhism, as well as with their intended audience. They reflect certain understandings of the notions of authorship, textual authenticity, the possibility of translation, and homiletics. A comprehensive study reveals the early development of Buddhist curricula in the region and a detailed study pedagogical methods used in these texts affords us a way to describe the nature of …
Traditional Thai Wisdom As Based On The Pali Tripitaka: A Challenge To Science And Technology, Somparn Promta
Traditional Thai Wisdom As Based On The Pali Tripitaka: A Challenge To Science And Technology, Somparn Promta
Manusya, Journal of Humanities
The Pali Tipitaka as used in Theravada Buddhist countries is considered to play various important roles. In Thailand, the Pali Tipitaka is not only a religious text but also a main source of Thai wisdom. The recent call for a greater role for Thai wisdom mainly comes from the awareness that the Western way of thought that dominates the modern Thai way of life is something that should be seriously examined. This paper will examine one important Western mode of thought which is generally called science and the attempt by Thai traditional thinkers to create Thai wisdom as a tool …
Karma As Moral Justice In Thai Buddhism, Suwanna Satha-Anand
Karma As Moral Justice In Thai Buddhism, Suwanna Satha-Anand
Manusya, Journal of Humanities
This article explores philosophical implications of the Buddhist theory of karma as a framework for moral justice. It investigates in what ways and under what conditions karma delivers justice for the individual. From the analysis of both canonical texts and writings of Thai Buddhist scholars, it becomes clear that the Buddhist theory of Karma implies an understanding of justice as entailing elements of both retributive and consequentialist positions. Lastly, it explores the strengths and the limitations of karma as providing moral justice. This last point indicates a discussion of the necessity of including the collective dimension in any discussion of …
What A True Buddhist Should Know About, P.A. Payutto
What A True Buddhist Should Know About, P.A. Payutto
Manusya, Journal of Humanities
The Pali Canon refers to the set of scriptures in which the Buddha's teachings, the Dhamma "Doctrine" and Vinaya "Discipline", are enshrined. The Pali term Tipitaka "three baskets [of teachings]" denotes the three major divisions of the Canon. As the Buddha clearly stated that the Dhamma and Vinaya were to succeed him as Teacher after his passing away, it follows that the Pali Canon is in effect where Buddhists can still have an audience with their Teacher and learn his Teaching even though he passed away over 2,500 years ago. The First Rehearsal, whose purpose was to collect and organize …

La Repubblica Di Sandel E L'Lo Incarnato, Richard Dagger
La Repubblica Di Sandel E L'Lo Incarnato, Richard Dagger
Political Science Faculty Publications
Quelli che vogliono conoscere cio per cui Sandel parteggia e cio contro cui combatte, quindi, hanno una buona ragione per dare il benvenuto a Democracy's Discontent. Se credono che la politica americana trarrebbe profitto da una corroborante (per non dire generosa) dose di repubblicanesimo, troveranno anche molte cose salutari nel libro. Come uno che si considera dentro entrambi questi gruppi, io credo che Sandel sia stato saggio a prendere una qualche distanza dal comunitarismo, e ancora piu saggio a sottoscrivere l'enfasi repubblicana sulla formazione dei cittadini e la coltivazione delle virtU civiche. Ma sbaglia nel continuare a opporsi al …

"For Freedom Of The Word", Thorvald Hansen
The Bridge
1£ you were to peruse the pages of Danneuirke, the Danish language weekly, for the first half of the year 1923, you would find the pages filled with articles pro and con concerning the pastoral pledge (praesteloflet). The pastoral pledge is not to be confused with the pastoral vow to remain true to the Orristian faith. No one objected to this. The pledge, on the other hand, was a promise to remain true to the canonical books of Lutheranism. Some had refused to take this pledge and had, accordingly, been denied ordination. This matter was to be dealt with at …

Kristian Ostergaard' S Udvandrer Bogen, Gerald Rasmussen
The Bridge
Kristian Pedersen 0stergaard (Ostergaard in English) was born 1855 in Volstrup, Hjerm parish, near the little town of Struer on the southern shore of the Limfjord. He grew up on the family farm and, like many other Danish farm boys of that day, went to work as a hired hand after eight years of schooling and confirmation. As a farmhand, he spent all of his spare time in reading. At an early age, he began to teach in private schools, first on Fyn and later on Langeland, though he had no formal training as a teacher. Time and again, he …
The Bridge Builders Of Luther Memorial, Wilber J. Williamson
The Bridge Builders Of Luther Memorial, Wilber J. Williamson
The Bridge
The congregation of Luther Memorial Church in Des Moines, Iowa, celebrated its centennial anniversary in 1999, during which time there was a good deal of reflection concerning the historical roots and activities of the church during the preceding one hundred years. Much of the early history of the congregation was closely associated with Grand View College. During the first decades, the school provided worship facilities as well as the pastor services for the emerging congregation. With financial support from the Danish Evangelical Lutheran Church, a building was erected in 1917, which has served as the home for the congregation since …
Emigration From Jystrup And Valsolille, Pia Viscor
Emigration From Jystrup And Valsolille, Pia Viscor
The Bridge
Traveling eastwards across the Danish island of Sjrelland, you turn off superhighway E66 at Ringsted and take highway Al towards Roskilde. Soon, you see a sign pointing to Jystrup and take the short side road to that village. The rolling countryside is idyllic, dotted with small lakes and ponds, tidy farmland alternating with forest. Jystrup lies on the eastern shore of a lake, with the church and village of Valselille on the opposite shore. On a peninsula at the northern end of the lake are ruins of Skjoldenres castle, beseiged and conquered by King Valdemar Atterdag in the mid-fourteenth century. …
