One major theme in modernism is the desire to wring the neck of rhetoric. The best modern poetry feels compelled both to accept the metonymic mode of discourse and to transcend it to allow for the full play of human consciousness without making consciousness equal interpretation of experience. Both the symbolist mode of Yeats and Eliot and the objectivism of Williams and contemporary poets can be seen as methods for responding to this problem. Symbolism seeks to complement the objective image by reconstituting versions of Idealism’s Absolute Self. The poet achieves a vision of the fullness of human consciousness by meditating on the implications of his own creative act, a process first adumbrated by Flaubert. Williams, on the other hand, particularly in “The Red Wheelbarrow,” brings the full play of consciousness into objective experience by seeking to render the act of mind as a process sharing the palpable physical qualities of things.

<p align="center"><strong>ABSTRACT</strong></p><p>This research empasizes on digging the consept of Syat{ah{a&lt;t of Sufis where several tasawuf companion showed their psychological condition up on paradoct position, switces themselves on God position. Then, trought researching on Syat{ah{a&lt;t of Sufis in psychological approach, researcher found several conclusions; i.e. (a) etimologically, Syat}ah}a&gt;t means shaking (al-h}arakah); (b) terminologigally, Syat{ah{a&lt;t of Sufis means any speeches that stranged to be heard by its audience when Sufis reached wajd or wuju&gt;d level. The factors that force the Sufis said Syat{ah{a&lt;t were: (1) the strong emotional feelings and rumbled spiritual extasy (wajd), (2) experiences self unification (ittih}a&gt;d), (3) Sufis are in extacy condition (sakr), (4) Sufis hear the signal of divinity within them who invites self-union, so they positioned himself as God, and (5) they loss of self-consciousness; Additionally, the researchers added the other factors, i.e. (1) the Sufis movement comes from tawa&gt;jud (salat, dhikr, meditation, contemplation, thought) on to the wajd or ecstasy level, (2) when Sufis heart is suddenly controlled by Allah Almighty (wa&gt;rid al-il&gt;ahiyyah), so he was no longer able to control their consciousness, and (3) absence of prejudice that the Sufis are united with God, because when that feeling comes, then they really had split (infisa&gt;l). In other hand, Syat{ah{a&lt;t of Sufis in psychological perspective, this study focused on transpersonal psychology, researchers tried to draw the conclusion that remarks Syat{ah{a&lt;t in grammatical word used is a combination of words which are not common to say by common, because the context is only for Allah. Those unusual utterances are manifestation of Sufis psychology themselves, when saying syat}ah}a&gt;t , Sufis do not realize whatever they have been said.</p>

Traditional Norms

Special features of a modern internet poetry-genre «pyrizhok» are reviewed in the article. The investigation of texts, which are not suited to the traditional norms of literature, is based on the scientific understanding of contemporary literary process on the part of literary scholars such as O. Rakitna, O. Yudina, T. Kononenko, K.Rakitna, M. Pekhа. Traditional canonical forms of poetry do not always satisfy the modern recipient, at the same time the new forms have not achieved sufficient evolution. Comparative analysis of traditional forms of concise poetry is made, such as tchastivka (humorous rhyme), kolomiyka (Ukrainian dance and song), sonnet, rubai from the one hand and modern forms of internet lyrics genre of «pyrizhok» and «poroshok» from the other hand. Despite “patties” («pyrizhky») are rather related with folklore, they are created by a particular author, often under the pseudonym. The presence of a particular author is akin to a “patty” with a canonical genre — rubai. This canonical genre is associated with one author — Omar Khayyam. According to authors, Vladyslav Richter is the “patties’” first creator, but his work only gave impetus to the development of the genre. A huge number of unknown authors led the genre into a category of canonical / anticononical. In this work, the complicated and contradictory character of the category “canon” is investigated. The evolution of the terms “canon” and “decanonization” in poetry comes along the process of democratization in literature. Similar features incidental to «pyrizhok» and “сomics” are found namely briefness, laconic brevity, illustrativeness and contextuality. In such a manner all the forms of internet-poetry might be considered as experimentally provocative genre. Decanonization is observed on all stages — from stylistic layer to high-principled accent. «Pyrizhok» reflects social disposition and is a part of decanonization process. In this research the attempt of provingthat «pyrizhok» is one of the most democratic genre of modern poetry is made. It is needed to be investigated by literature specialists.

This concluding chapter makes several arguments. It stresses that hope deserves rather a different reputation than it has. On the one hand, it does not deserve a reputation as either unqualifiedly good or unqualifiedly reliable. Its relation to rational action and a good life is more complex. On the other hand, it is of far deeper philosophical interest and significance than most have recognized. It is revelatory of the structures and operations of reflective human consciousness, and it can be a strategically valuable response to the fact that we are creatures with animal attractions, with the capacity for rational deliberation and choice, and the capacity to be aware of our own epistemic and agential limitations. The chapter pulls together these points and outlines recommendations for the philosophy of psychology and the emotions that follow from this investigation of hope.

The Way

Based on the fish tank symbolism in the dream books some features are derived and determined. These features are typical of the reception and feeling of the so-called imaginative pictures which are typical of imagining, feeling, experiencing and realizing of the conceptual-assessing and sensitive impressions. The assumptions connected with the observation of the object, as well as with being there (i.e. in a fish tank), are presented and discussed. These are the features which are determined both separately and mutually and they describe the states in question. The reptiles and fish (mentioned in the title), according to the interpretations quoted, are both the element which fills up a fish tank and the projection of its positive character (or a negativeone in the case of its absence). On the other hand, in a non-visible but perceptible way they become involved with the subject that is observing them in a fish tank and then with a human being and that human being is to some extent identified with that subject. All those elements mentioned above, together with the characterized semantics of those images (i.e. a fish tank with reptiles and fish inside), are the key to understanding the way the human consciousness is able to transfer itself into another existence, with the interpretation of the visible and non-visible world as experienced by the human.

The human consciousness appears to he a duality. On the one hand it is ever creating, and on the other hand it is ever holding fast to that which it has created. These two activities belong, respectively, in the realm of art and in the realm of knowledge. For the purpose of discussion, let us define art as the emergence of new life-forms of the human consciousness, and knowledge as the more or less permanent system of invariants which the human consciousness retains.

<p class="Abstrakabstract">Sayyid Ja'far Sodiq or known as Sunan Kudus is a figure who has an important role in the entry of Islam in Kudus. The multicultural Holy Society has a unique typology in morals, science and economics, known as "Gusjigang", Bagus-having good behavior), Ji (Ngaji-good at reciting the Qur'an) and Gang (Dagang —good at trading). The identity crisis brings human consciousness to explore the wealth, wisdom and excellence contained in local culture, build and strengthen the identity and pride of the nation. Modernization or more accurately said as Westernization on the one hand is able to achieve rapid progress, but on the other hand it fails to achieve prosperity for nature and humans. This study reveals the influence and relevance of Gusjigang from Kanjeng Sunan Kudus in moderating Islam in Kudus in life with a unique format and typology that is able to become a new concept for the development of morals, science and economics (trade) so as to create a prosperous and prosperous society.</p>

Sudden Rise

AbstractWe have developed a model for theH2OandOHevolution in a comet outburst, assuming that together with the gas, a distribution of icy grains is ejected. With an initial mass of icy grains of 108kg released, theH2OandOHproductions are increased up to a factor two, and the growth curves change drastically in the first two days. The model is applied to eruptions detected in theOHradio monitorings and fits well with the slow variations in the flux. On the other hand, several events of short duration appear, consisting of a sudden rise ofOHflux, followed by a sudden decay on the second day. These apparent short bursts are frequently found as precursors of a more durable eruption. We suggest that both of them are part of a unique eruption, and that the sudden decay is due to collisions that de-excite theOHmaser, when it reaches the Cometopause region located at 1.35 × 105kmfrom the nucleus.

Transmission Microscope

We have become accustomed to differentiating between the scanning microscope and the conventional transmission microscope according to the resolving power which the two instruments offer. The conventional microscope is capable of a point resolution of a few angstroms and line resolutions of periodic objects of about 1Å. On the other hand, the scanning microscope, in its normal form, is not ordinarily capable of a point resolution better than 100Å. Upon examining reasons for the 100Å limitation, it becomes clear that this is based more on tradition than reason, and in particular, it is a condition imposed upon the microscope by adherence to thermal sources of electrons.

Life beyond 1MeV – like life after 40 – is not too different unless one takes advantage of past experience and is receptive to new opportunities. At first glance, the returns on performing electron microscopy at voltages greater than 1MeV diminish rather rapidly as the curves which describe the well-known advantages of HVEM often tend towards saturation. However, in a country with a significant HVEM capability, a good case can be made for investing in instruments with a range of maximum accelerating voltages. In this regard, the 1.5MeV KRATOS HVEM being installed in Berkeley will complement the other 650KeV, 1MeV, and 1.2MeV instruments currently operating in the U.S. One other consideration suggests that 1.5MeV is an optimum voltage machine – Its additional advantages may be purchased for not much more than a 1MeV instrument. On the other hand, the 3MeV HVEM's which seem to be operated at 2MeV maximum, are much more expensive.

Summary: My comment is basically restricted to the situation in which less-able students find themselves and refers only to literature in German. From this point of view I am basically able to confirm Marsh's results. It must, however, be said that with less-able pupils the opposite effect can be found: Levels of self-esteem in these pupils are raised, at least temporarily, by separate instruction, academic performance however drops; combined instruction, on the other hand, leads to improved academic performance, while levels of self-esteem drop. Apparently, the positive self-image of less-able pupils who receive separate instruction does not bring about the potential enhancement of academic performance one might expect from high-ability pupils receiving separate instruction. To resolve the dilemma, it is proposed that individual progress in learning be accentuated, and that comparisons with others be dispensed with. This fosters a self-image that can in equal measure be realistic and optimistic.
