• Augustine

  do what one knows one ought not to be doing, mark him off from ethicists of the classical Greek period. YetAugustine also preserves in his own thinking important strands of ancient Greek thought. Thus, for example, hisdevelopment of the doctrine of the Christian virtues includes an echo of Plato's idea of the unity of the virtues. Hisinsistence that 'ought' does not, in any straightforward way, imply 'can', distinguishes him, not only from hiscontemporary Pelagius, whom he helped brand...

• Bloch, Ernst Simon

  with a non-positivist empiricism, which he terms 'process empiricism' . It is thus to be distinguished from a determinist teleology, which, following the analogy of the acorn and the oak, envisages humanity in terms of a fixed, inevitable future growing out of iron historical trends.

• United Provinces of Central America.

  IV REUNION EFFORTS Efforts to reunite the Central American federation in the 1840s all failed. But unity was still seen as a desirable goal—to give the states more power when dealing withforeign nations and to tie together people with a common heritage. But as conservatives came to power in each of the states, they rejected a restored federation,associating the idea too closely with the hated Morazán and his liberal policies. Carrera’s Guatemala was the first formally to declare itself an inde...

• Cambridge Platonism

  detailed demonstrations of the existence of God, providence and immortality. True to the tradition of Florentine Platonism ( Platonism, Renaissance §4 ), and contrary to Bacon and orthodox Protestantism, the Cambridge men sometimes completely identified the realms of reason and faith, as if nature and revelation were only different hypostases or degrees of manifestation of the divine goodness. They held that the truths of revelation are only a more spiritual form of reason, and the truths of...

• Redshift - astronomy.

• Discuss the ways in which Jamaica Kincaid explores Annie's relationship with her mother in the first two chapters

  parents have trouble expressing their parental affection especially physically either because the parent is imposing a kind of distance between him and the child, or simply because he is not comfortable being involved in this type of contact. From this part, love and affection are explicitly expressed in this: Annie's mother is very lovable and tactile with her daughter. During the early stages of childhood, children are very dependent of affection and a mother's love is also a first step to lov...
