The provisions of Islamic Shari’s carry noble objectives that elevate human society and elevate it to the highest degree of humanity.These objectives possess means for achieving them since these means are the practical mechanism to implement the objectives of the wise legislator.

The distinction between objectives and means is very important. Objectives have their own content and properties and means have their own different properties and ways too. Mixing them leads to a failure in understanding

The sense of death increased due to the frequent strife and killings during the Umayyad era. This sort of feeling typically requires freedom and personality faithfulness. The external poetry is the reflection of the life experience and the external poet’s characteristics of openness and courage.

Alkhawaarij ideas sprung from the Holy Quran but they – Alkhawaarij- were featured by their excessive belief in certain aspects and negligence of others which gave an impression that they would reject the secular life. The dual view of life and death in Alkhawaarij poetry was underestimated as death is a reflection of life, so …

The verb in Arabic language has specific features distinguishing it form the noun. However, there are some exceptions. These verbs may depart from the verb markers; they may be associated with affixes which may change their meanings; they may change the verb’s syntactic case, etc. One of these verbs is the verb “KAFA” (enough). This syntactic phenomenon encouraged the researcher to study the verb kafa and its multi meanings through consulting dictionaries, syntax references, Holy Qur’an parsing and commentaries, and the like.

The Vernacular As Method For Memory And Time: A Philological And Cultural Exploration Of Filipino Concepts For Memory Studies, Jocelyn Martin Sep 2020

The Vernacular As Method For Memory And Time: A Philological And Cultural Exploration Of Filipino Concepts For Memory Studies, Jocelyn Martin

English Faculty Publications

This article proposes the vernacular as a discursive methodological entry point to Memory Studies. A bottom-up approach, this article theorizes memory and time starting from a close-reading of signifiers from the Filipino language, thus allowing its culture to be considered in its own terms first. The first part of the essay examines a set of terms that show equivalences with Western conceptions of memory. The second set of signifiers—(ma)tandà(an), agam, limot/limót and panahon—reveal that they are actually more illustrative of the current trend of movement in Memory Studies; and that they translate more accurately both the non-linear and …

The Hospitality Of The Abyssal Ground Or Perceptual Architectures Of Indeterminacy, Natasha Lushetich Sep 2020

The Hospitality Of The Abyssal Ground Or Perceptual Architectures Of Indeterminacy, Natasha Lushetich

Contemporary Aesthetics (Journal Archive)

There never has been such a thing as solid ground. As profoundly transient beings, all we can hope for is the hospitality of the abyssal ground.[1] Perhaps that is why our everyday aesthetic appreciation of our natural environment is inseparable from indeterminacy, as change and ambiguity but also potentiality; think of the immensely pleasurable journeys through the rapidly changing shapes in fire- or cloud-gazing. But can the same be said of our machinic environment? In this article, I discuss indeterminacy as a generative principle in four realms: elemental, evental, linguistic, and machinic. Anchoring the transubstantiating potential of the four …

Gower´S Queer Poetics In The Mirour De L'Omme, María Bullón-Fernández Sep 2020

Gower´S Queer Poetics In The Mirour De L'Omme, María Bullón-Fernández

Accessus

Gower's Queer Poetics in the Mirour de l'Omme

In the Mirour de l’Omme John Gower describes the allegorical Sins as both deceitful and “hermafrodrite” and later confesses to having engaged in queer practices in his earlier courtly poetry. Gower’s confession and his association of the Sins with intersexuality, I will argue, do not entail ultimately a rejection of queer poetics. In his Life of the Virgin Mary, the final part of the Mirour, Gower deploys a different kind of queer poetics, one that acknowledges the indeterminacies of language but still seeks to stabilize meaning, while intertwining male and female.


The Community Of The Realm: Gower's Account Of The Commons In Book V Of The Vox Clamantis, Robert J. Meindl Sep 2020

The Community Of The Realm: Gower's Account Of The Commons In Book V Of The Vox Clamantis, Robert J. Meindl

Accessus

Gower's stated intention at the beginning of Book III of the Vox Clamantis to survey the three degrees of the world, i.e. the clerics, knights, and farmers, is not forthcoming in exactly the manner he specifies. Instead, he delivers a lengthy critique of the clergy in Books III and IV and then an account of the secular world apart from the nobility in Book V. This book deals with the rural and urban components of late fourteenth-century English society, that is, the gentry and the bound and free agricultural workers on the one hand and the merchants, artisans, and plebs …
