Chapter 3 reads Wordsworth’s poetic theory as a far-reaching account of compositional pleasure. It considers the crucial relation between of poetry’s claims to truth and its claims to produce and communicate pleasure, and uses the question of poetic pleasure to explore the tense relation in Wordsworth’s prose between real language and events and the artificial and mechanical operation of verse. It goes on to position Wordsworth’s theory of poetry in opposition to the persistent critical problem of sublimation. In place of the assumption that artistic pleasures must be substitute satisfaction or sheer fantasy, it explores the claim that poetry might disclose existing but unacknowledged pleasure in the world. The challenges and pleasures of metrical verse, it argues, are for Wordsworth constitutive of its retrospective, reparative forms of attention. The chapter concludes by returning to Wordsworth’s poetry and considering how metrical pleasure might function as a form of mourning.

The Way

The way how turâts (a term only found in contemporary Arabic-Islam or tradition) is viewed has been a critical problem. This is because queries about it imply rise and or fall of a civilization. This thesis has at least been proved by facts of history that since the midst 19th century the world of Arabic-Islam thoughts have been moving backward compared to that in the Western-modern thoughts. This research will analyze Muhammad ‘Âbid al-Jâbirî’s thoughts that represented contemporary thinkers. Al-Jâbirî was a muslim intellectual born in Feiji Southeast-Marocco in 1936. His initial acquaintance with philosophical thoughts related to three prominent figures of Karl Marx (1818-1890), Gaston Bachelard (1884-1962), and Louis Althusser (1918-1990). He was grown up in a setting of Maghribi thoughts (Marocco-Andalusia), which was influenced by traditions of French philosophy of Marxian. However, he doubted Marxian approaches in Islamic history context.

Ten years on from the landmark environmental education conference at Tbilisi, it is salutary to reflect on the extent to which some of the distinguishing characteristics espoused in the nineteen-seventies are manifest in environmental education of the 'eighties. The critical problem-solving interest of environmental education recommended in the literature of the 'seventies was consistent with the social/political concerns of the world community at the time—concerns to which the UNESCO environmental education programme was a response. However, this critical problem-solving interest is not commonplace in schools, and still represents a serious challenge to the existing patterns of schooling. Consequently the position that environmental education should entail widespread educational reform is nowadays becoming stronger and more evident.

Lately, the attention and awareness of humankind to protect and maintain environmental sustainability are increasing. Environmental damage today is a big problem and is global, which is now an increasingly critical problem. The world is experiencing the danger of an ecological crisis. This article is intended to describe the Church's ethical-theological attitude in addressing environ-mental issues today is a very crucial issue to consider. Using research that uses qualitative research using descriptive methods based on the Bible and also using library research by analyzing literature both books and journals that discuss environmental issues. Based on ethical-theological studies, it can be concluded that humans are the managers of nature, and preservation of nature is as an implementation of love for others. By understanding this, it is hoped that the Environment, which has been entrusted to humans, needs to be managed wisely, responsibly and productively as possible for the needs and progress of future generations. Abstrak Akhir-akhir ini perhatian dan kesadaran umat manusia untuk menjaga dan memelihara kelestarian lingkungan hidupnya semakin meningkat. Kerusakan lingkungan hidup dewasa ini merupakan isu besar dan bersifat global (mendunia), yang kini menjadi masalah yang semakin genting. Dunia sedang menghadapi bahaya krisis ekologis. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk memaparkan sikap etis-teologis Gereja dalam menyikapi isu tentang lingkungan hidup dewasa ini menjadi isu yang sangat krusial untuk diperhatikan. Adapun pende-katan penelitian yang penulis gunakan adalah penelitian kualitatif dengan menggunakan metode deskriptif berdasarkan Alkitab dan juga menggunakan penelitian kepustakaan dengan cara menganalis literatur baik buku maupun jurnal yang membahas permasalahan lingkungan hidup. Berdasarkan kajian etis-teologis diperoleh kesimpulan bahwa, manusia adalah pengelola alam, dan pelestarian alam adalah sebagai implementasi kasih kepada sesama. Dengan pemahaman ini, diharapkan lingkungan hidup yang telah dipercayakan kepada manusia, perlu dikelola secara bijak, bertanggungjawab dan seproduktif mungkin untuk kepentingan dan kelangsungan generasi mendatang.

Hydroxyl Functional Group

Using of petro-polymers such as polymethylmethacrylate, polypropylene and polyethylene in the world has been undergoing a critical problem due to significantly decreasing of petroleoum stock as monomer sources. Therefore reducing of the petro-polymer usage should be performed by using natural resources such as modified starches.This study reported addition of an acyl bromide compound to substitute hydroxyl groups on the starch obtains a macro initiator for graft-copolymerizing polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) onto the functionalized starch as starch-g-PMMA through atomic transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) method. The starch activation through the substitution of the hydroxyl functional group creates ability of the starch to transfer a radical atom onto a petro-monomer such an alkylmethacrylate which furthermore polymerize into starch-g-PMMA at mild condition. This paper reported study of the starch activation describing about screening catalysts and acyl bromide compounds, optimizing process variables such as amount ratio of a selected acyl bromide compound to starch and temperature. The functionalized starchs were analysed by 13-CNMR, FTIR, titration and their morphology was observed by FE-SEM.

Sufficiency Economy Philosophy

Waste has become a critical problem in cities around the world. Each year, the world generates 2.01 billion tonnes of municipal solid waste, with at least 33 percent of that not managed in an environmentally safe manner. The currently consumption-driven lifestyle also produces a huge volume of waste each day threatening the world sustainability. Moreover, the ongoing depletion of natural finite resources is also leading the globe to an uncertain future. The purpose of this article is to study the zero-waste concept and the characteristics of zero waste city, to study the principles of sufficiency economy philosophy, and to review the role of sufficiency economy in waste reduction and how it contributes to zero waste city. Documentary study and literature review were used for data collection. The result showed that ineffective waste management including landfill and incineration can be one major cause of waste. Also, overconsumption can be another cause that exacerbates the current waste situation. A zero-waste strategy and the concept of zero waste city can contribute to waste prevention with its proactive-reduce, reuse, and recycle (3R)-principle and to the reduction of wastes sent to landfills and incinerators. Sufficiency Economy Philosophy can also contribute to waste reduction at the consumer side. With the zero-waste strategy and sufficiency economy philosophy, we can achieve waste and pollution reduction and preserve our environment, as well as create sustainability for the future generations.

Pragmatist Philosophy

AbstractA pragmatist philosophy of psychological science offers to the direct replication debate concrete recommendations and novel benefits that are not discussed in Zwaan et al. This philosophy guides our work as field experimentalists interested in behavioral measurement. Furthermore, all psychologists can relate to its ultimate aim set out by William James: to study mental processes that provide explanations for why people behave as they do in the world.

Abstract Culture shapes our basic sensory experience of the world. This is particularly striking in the study of religion and psychosis, where we and others have shown that cultural context determines both the structure and content of hallucination-like events. The cultural shaping of hallucinations may provide a rich case-study for linking cultural learning with emerging prediction-based models of perception.

Abstract Hoerl & McCormack argue that animals cannot represent past situations and subsume animals’ memory-like representations within a model of the world. I suggest calling these memory-like representations as what they are without beating around the bush. I refer to them as event memories and explain how they are different from episodic memory and how they can guide action in animal cognition.

AbstractFe XIV 530.3 nm coronal emission line observations have been used for the estimation of the green solar corona rotation. A homogeneous data set, created from measurements of the world-wide coronagraphic network, has been examined with a help of correlation analysis to reveal the averaged synodic rotation period as a function of latitude and time over the epoch from 1947 to 1991.The values of the synodic rotation period obtained for this epoch for the whole range of latitudes and a latitude band ±30° are 27.52±0.12 days and 26.95±0.21 days, resp. A differential rotation of green solar corona, with local period maxima around ±60° and minimum of the rotation period at the equator, was confirmed. No clear cyclic variation of the rotation has been found for examinated epoch but some monotonic trends for some time intervals are presented.A detailed investigation of the original data and their correlation functions has shown that an existence of sufficiently reliable tracers is not evident for the whole set of examinated data. This should be taken into account in future more precise estimations of the green corona rotation period.
