The religious communication process involves two communicants, namely a priest (the author) and a potential believer (addressee). The nominative field of the addressee in the religious style requires more detailed scientific studies. The purpose of the article is to analyze the peculiarities of the addressee’s nomination in modern religious epistles of the highest-rank clergy of the Ukrainian churches. The recipient (addressee) of the texts under study is determined not only by the church status (the priest – the monk – the believer), but also by the confessional, eparchian, partly by territorial and professional affiliation and by the subject matter of the epistles themselves. It has been revealed that all the lexemes under study fall into two major categories: nominatives (names) and appellatives (appeals) according to language functional spheres, namely the sphere of representation and sphere of appeal. The authors of the religious epistles use nominatives predominantly in the epistle titles to name the addressees, whom they are appealing to, while appellatives are used in the introductory greetings, at the beginning of the epistle, and are aimed at enhancing the attention of the recipients throughout the text. The addressee’s names are represented by three lexical-semantic groups: “clergy”, “monks”, “believers” with the core lexemes typical of religious discourse. Such lexemes, except for sporadic one-component use, are most often intensified by stylistically marked qualifying attributes. In terms of the structure of emotionally-evaluative expressions, epithet-based nominations dominate, among which we distinguish functionally-marked lexemes (Worthy/Respectable, Reverend, Most Reverend, Godloving, etc.) and commonly used lexemes, mainly adjectives of intimate semantics (Dear, Beloved, Loving) including official-ceremonial – Dear, Honourable. Optional lexico-grammatical structure of appeals is represented by various-style lexemes, which are not typical of the religious style. For example, typical for conversational style appelative lexemes appear to be combined with functionally differentiated attributes of religious semantics. Thus, the lexeme of general use children is often combined with epithets spiritual, church; stylistically marked lexical units pastors, brothers and sisters, conventional for official, business or colloquial styles, are used with the attributes dear, honourable, close to my heart.

ملخص البحث:   يهدف هذا البحث إلى دراسة الوظائف العلائقية للشرط في نماذج من الحديث النبوي الشريف دراسة نحوية نصية؛ وذلك لإبراز مظاهرها من جهة، وبيان دورها البنائي لنص الحديث من جهة أخرى. تناول البحث بداية مفهوم الشرط، ثم التعالق الشرطي بوصفه بنية نحوية نصية، وانتقل بعد ذلك إلى الوظائف العلائقية للشرط في نصوص الحديث النبوي الشريف. قام الباحث بعملية استقرائية تحليلية لنصوص الأحاديث النبوية الشريفة، وقد اختار عينات ممثلة لبنية الشرط في هذه الأحاديث، معتمداً على نسخة "صحيح" البخاري. للبحث منهج خاص تمثل في تركيزه على جانب العلاقات، والدخول في إبراز الوظائف العلائقية من منظور لساني حديث، وليس من منظور وصفي، فالغــرض هو التحــليل والغوص في أعمــاق الأثر اللساني النصي للشرط في نص الحديث، أي: سبر أغوار الشــرط في نص الحديث من منـــظور نحوي نصي، وله أيضاً ميزة خاصة تتمثل في أنه يبحث في كلام سيد الكائنات صلى الله عليه وسلــم، وإنها رحــــلة عذبة، تدفع في النفس السرور والراحة والطمأنينة، وإنه باعث على التعلم الجاد والتعليم الفاعل. انتهى البحث إلى أن وظائف الشرط العلائقية قد أثرت بصورة فاعلة في بناء نص الحديث، وقد تمثلت هذه الوظائف بتأسيس مبدأ الدورية، ثم الوظيفة التسلسلية التوضيحية، وبناء استراتيجية الحوار، والتواتر الإحالي، وتأسيس التوازي، وأخيراً البعد التحديدي بأنواعه: المستقل، والتبعي، والسببي.الكلمات المفتاحية: الوظائف- العلائقية- الشرط- نحو النص- الحديث النبوي.Abstract:This paper attempts to study grammatically and textually the functions of conditional phrase in selected of the Prophet’s Traditions. It aims at pointing out its features on one hand, and explaining its structural role on the other. It begins with the definition of conditional phrase, its relational condition as a textual grammatical structure. The relational functions of condition in the prophetic sayings will be examined afterwards. The researcher uses deductive and analytical approach to examine the sayings from the collection of Ṣaḥiḥ al-Bukhārī in order to find the relational functions of the conditional phrase from the perspective of modern linguistic but not descriptively. This is in order to uncover and analyze the depth of textual linguistic presence of conditional phrase in the Prophet’s Traditions. The study is special in the sense that it studies the Prophet’s Traditions and it   worthy endeavor that brings comfort and excitement to the souls. It brings   to a serious learning and teaching undertaking of the subject matter. The study concludes that functional relational conditions have significant influence on the structure of the sayings. These functions are apparent in the principle of periodicity and have the serial function that aims to explain. It also helps to build conversation strategy, referential succession and the determinative dimension with it categories; independent, consequential and causal.Keywords: Functions– Relational– Condition– Textual Grammar– Prophetic Sayings. Abstrak:Makalah ini membincangkan fungsi-fungsi hubungan bagi frasa syarat dalam hadis Nabi terhadap tatabahasa teks; iaitu dengan menonjol dan menerangkan sifat-sifat serta peranan yang dimainkan oleh frasa syarat sebagai frasa berstruktur.

In the debate on Luther’s Reformatory Discovery two elements come together: the systematic question of how to determine the essential content of reformatory theology, that is, the core of Reformation itself, and the historical question of the point in his life at which Luther reached this insight. The debate arose first in the late 19th century, when the essence of Protestantism was brought into question and scholars tried to find an answer in the writings of Luther himself. This historical and methodological conjunction leads to different results concerning both the religious content of the discovery and the date when Luther discovered it. Two main answers have been given. The first supposes that it is the logical structure of self-annihilation and divine affirmation that is specifically reformatory. Luther came to this insight during his first lecture on Psalms, about 1514. This means that he certainly knew what his new theology contained when the indulgences controversy broke out. The second theory underscores that Luther had to establish a kind of outward kerygmatic reality in order to make the inner conflict and contradiction of sentiments acceptable. He reached this position only in 1518, that is, after the beginning of the controversy over indulgences in 1517. Therefore, the final development of Luther’s reformatory insight took place in the confrontation with the ecclesiastical powers of his day. For many years the debate focused upon a late text by Luther, namely, the preface of the first volume of his Latin works in 1545. It has to be admitted that Luther offered there his own recollection of the beginning of his new theology. But he did so quite briefly, concentrating only on the notion of iustitia passiva. This is a proper term for the content of the reformatory insight, but Luther did not fully explain the spiritual and practical context. Therefore, one must imagine that the Reformatory Discovery came about through a longer process of theological reflection, including its biblical, conceptual, spiritual, and ecclesial consequences. It is significant that the conflict with the Roman Church came up exactly when Luther stressed the externality of God’s Word for establishing the inner status of humankind before God. The church can only be the medium, not the subject, of salvation. And the correspondence to God’s Word means quite simply faith, that is, the acceptance of being accepted by God. One must reckon here with a process that began with Luther’s first lectures in 1513 and came to an end by 1520. Luther’s “On the Freedom of a Christian” of 1520 clearly shows his reformatory discovery fully established.

Point Of Reference

In December 1994 the Revd Philip LS Barrett BD MA FRHistS FSA, Rector of Compton and Otterbourne in the Diocese of Winchester, successfully submitted a dissertation to the University of Wales College of Cardiff for the degree of LLM in Canon Law, entitled ‘Episcopal Visitation of Cathedrals in the Church of England’. Philip Barrett, best known for his magisterial study, Barchester: English Cathedral Life in the Nineteenth Century (SPCK1993), died in 1998. The subject matter of this dissertation is of enduring importance and interest to those engaged in the life and work of cathedrals, and the Editor invited Canon Peter Atkinson, Chancellor of Chichester Cathedral, to repare it for publication in this Journal, so that the author's work might receive a wider circulation, but at a manageable length. In 1999 a new Cathedrals Measure was enacted, following upon the recommendations of the Howe Commission, published in the report Heritage and Renewal (Church House Publishing 1994). The author was able to refer to the report, but not to the Measure, or to the revision of each set of cathedral Statutes consequent upon that Measure. While this limits the usefulness of the author's work as a point of reference for the present law of cathedral visitations, its value as an historical introduction remains.

Individual Objects

The core idea of mathematical structuralism is that mathematical theories, always or at least in many central cases, are meant to characterize abstract structures (as opposed to more concrete, individual objects). As such, structuralism is a general position about the subject matter of mathematics, namely abstract structures; but it also includes, or is intimately connected with, views about its methodology, since studying such structures involves distinctive tools and procedures. The goal of the present collection of essays is to discuss mathematical structuralism with respect to both aspects. This is done by examining contributions by a number of mathematicians and philosophers of mathematics from the second half of the 19th and the early 20th centuries.

Political Economic

“Young ladies don't understandpolitical economy, you know,” asserts the casually misogynistic uncle of Dorothea Brooke in George Eliot'sMiddlemarch(1871) (17; bk. 1, ch 1). Although Eliot's heroine resents both her uncle's remark and “that never-explained science which was thrust as an extinguisher over all her lights,” her attempt to teach herself political economy in the novel only seems to confirm her uncle's assessment (18; bk. 1, ch. 1): Dorothea gathers a “little heap of books on political economy” and sets forth to learn “the best way of spending money so as not to injure one's neighbors, or – what comes to the same thing – so as to do them the most good” (805; bk. 5, ch. 48). Naively likening “spending money so as not to injure one's neighbors” to “do[ing] them the most good,” Dorothea fails to grasp the self-interest at the core of nineteenth-century political economic thought and so misunderstands the subject matter before her: “Unhappily her mind slipped off [the book] for a whole hour; and at the end she found herself reading sentences twice over with an intense consciousness of many things, but not of any one thing contained in the text. This was hopeless” (805; bk. 5, ch. 48).

Contemporary discussions about practical reason or practical rationality invoke four competing views, which, by reference to their historical models, can be named as follows: Aristotelian, Hobbesian, Kantian, and Nietzschean. The subject matter of this chapter is a defence of the Kantian conception of practical rationality in the interpretation of discourse theory. At the core lies the justification and the application of the rules of discourse. An argument consisting of three parts is presented to justify the rules of discourse. The three parts are as follows: a transcendental-pragmatic argument, an argument that takes account of the maximization of individual utility, and an empirical premise addressing an interest in correctness. Within the framework of the problem of application, the chapter outlines a justification of human rights and of the basic institutions of the democratic constitutional state on the basis of discourse theory.

Titles in the Core Text series take the reader straight to the heart of the subject, providing focused, concise, and reliable guides for students at all levels. A declaration of trust must be ‘certain’, meaning that a settlor must declare the terms of the trust with sufficient ‘certainty’ or precision for the trustees to know what they must do, or the intended trust fails. This chapter discusses the ‘three certainties’, following Knight v Knight (1840): certainty of intention; certainty of subject matter; and certainty of objects, in both the traditional family and commercial contexts. The first concerns the question whether what the putative settlor did or said amounts to a declaration of a trust over his property. The second requires that the property that is to form the trust corpus is identifiable. The third requires that the intended beneficiaries, the ‘objects’ of the trust, are identifiable.

AbstractThe aim is to show how formations of discourse can be seen as the subject matter for the historian of religions, drawing on structuralist and hermeneutic approaches. Although these may differ on important theoretical and methodological issues, I find the way in which they correspond, namely by pointing to the topic of discourse as their field of investigation, even more important. In this article a discourse is understood as a framework of communication, and the focus is laid upon religious discourse as a special kind of authorization. In ancient Greece, for example, "authors" such as Homer and Orpheus were the authorities of two different discursive traditions. The analysis of discourse can present us with a view of how certain frames of communication were interacting by means of contest, and how, eventually, it was the very strategy of authorization that was contested. Hence, what has often been seen as a paradigmatic shift from mythos to logos could more fruitfully be viewed from a discursive angle than from a perspective of different mentalities. Discourse analysis, as presented in this article, is a way of coming to terms with the process of transformation by regarding dynamic properties of communication, that is, as interrelated strategies on connected levels of system and event.
