AbstractNo serious study has been published on how Chinese filmmakers have portrayed the United States and the American people over the last century. The number of such films is not large. That fact stands in sharp contrast not only to the number of "China pictures" produced in the United States, which is not surprising, but also in contrast to the major role played by Chinese print media. This essay surveys the history of Chinese cinematic images of America from the early twentieth century to the new millennium and notes the shifts from mostly positive portrayal in the pre-1949 Chinese films, to universal condemnation during the Mao years and to a more nuanced, complex, and multi-colored presentation of the last few decades.

Primary hyperparathyroidism is a common disorder of mineral metabolism characterized by incompletely regulated, excessive secretion of parathyroid hormone from one or more of the parathyroid glands. The historical view of this disease describes two distinct entities marked by two eras. When primary hyperparathyroidism was first discovered about 80 years ago, it was always symptomatic with kidney stones, bone disease and marked hypercalcemia. With the advent of the multichannel autoanalyzer about 40 years ago, the clinical phenotype changed to a disorder characterized by mild hypercalcemia and the absence of classical other features of the disease. We may now be entering a 3rd era in the history of this disease in which patients are being discovered with normal total and ionized serum calcium concentrations but with parathyroid hormone levels that are consistently elevated. In this article, we describe this new entity, normocalcemic primary hyperparathyroidism, a forme fruste of the disease.

The View of Nature and History in Grundtvig and LøgstrupBy Hans HenningsenGrundtvig’s and K.E. Løgstrup’s thoughts move in two different dimensions, but with the same intention of demonstrating that it was not the capacity of man to create culture that first gave significance to the world. But where Grundtvig speaks about history, Løgstrup speaks about »phenomena«, »nature«, and »universe«.While Grundtvig was largely unaffected by Kant, the latter - with his concepts of the selfexistent subject and the idea of the faculty of cognition as productive - became a challenge to Løgstrup. Kant heralds an era whose relationship with the universe is characterized as a »marginal existence«. Our culture became an emancipatory culture which was all to the good, but the era lost its sense of the .pre-cultural. structures in which life is »encased«.The era has also emancipated itself from Grundtvig’s historical view. But a history on the premisses of relativism is no history. Or, in Løgstrup’s words, there is no other history than the history of what is essential in life. Therefore, in reality, Løgstrup’s phenomenological and philosophical endeavours become a defence of history. Grundtvig’s view of nature was determined by his radical prioritization of history. He prefers to view nature as part of the historical life of man, which again determines his use of nature images. In Grundtvig there is no religious interpretation of any experience or perception of nature in spite of the fact that everything in the Creation is to be understood as images of the eternal.In Løgstrup there is no such cautions attitude towards nature. Here nature and sense perception are liberating, but as is the case with Grundtvig, nature is seen as the foundation of man’s life, as immediate experience.Grundtvig’s radical prioritization of history colours his view of art. The Creation itself is the greatest work of art; part of it is the upbringing through which all history must be the object of the individual’s own experience. Among the art forms, poetry ranks highest, with the song above all other forms, while Grundtvig only uses disparaging words about painting and sculpture because these art forms are wordless and preclude changes. Løgstrup, however, attaches much greater importance to sense perception and self-recognition through art.These contrasts may be regarded as what Løgstrup calls uniting opposites; it must be remembered, however, that such disparities cannot be harmonized so as to disappear, but are uniting precisely by virtue of the tension that exists between them. The actual existence of the contrasts does not preclude the possibility that in a wider sense the two views may be contained within the same framework and express a common intention.

Abstract Sermons lend themselves to ambiguous identification in the study of religions. On the one hand, they are easily recognisable practices, delivered on particular days of the week, or when special occasions or needs arise. They are usually given in clearly defined places at clearly defined times. They are given by designated or recognized individuals that vary according to the respective religious traditions. On the other hand, sermons are speech performances that may and often do vary from one occasion to the next. While prone to a certain formalism, sermon speech acts are open to variation from time to time, and from preacher to preacher. To extend the possibilities offered by sermons for reflection and analysis, I explore some of the theoretical insights suggested for sermons in ritual studies and from the history of sermons within religious traditions. There is no consensus within ritual studies, but there are some useful ideas and suggestions that cover and extend the practices and speech acts that constitute sermons. More significantly, I found the longue durée of the sermon in the Abrahamic traditions of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam to be more resourceful. The historical view of the sermon in comparable religious traditions brings forth enduring elements such as reading texts, employing rhetoric, producing effects (including affect), signifying and challenging authority, and marking time and space. More than the theoretical models for rituals from anthropology and religious studies, this historical perspective brings out the value of the practices and speech elements that constitute sermons.

Tai filosofinis pasakojimas apie Gintaro Varno spektaklį „Nusiaubta šalis“ ir jo istorinį-literatūrinį kontekstą. Pagrindinė spektaklio tema įvardijama kaip Dievo vieta istorijoje. Tekste vartojami „vertikalaus laiko“ ir „istorijos spirale“ įvaizdžiai, būdingi viduramžių menui. Šalia pastebėjimų apie viduramžių teatro specifiką ir jos atspindėjimą spektaklyje tekste vartojamos H. Bergsono, G. Bachelard’o, G. Deleuze’o, P. Ricoeuro įžvalgos į laiko problematiką bei J. Derrida religijos filosofijos intarpai. Spektakliui būdingas virtualus laikų ir vietų daugybiškumas, skirtingų laikų sutraukimas vienoje trukmėje primena Bergsono „filosofinio laiko“ koncepciją. Paradigmos metonimiškumas leidžia traktuoti šį spektaklį kaip sakramentinį teatrą, kuriame performatyvumas bei papildomumo principas sukuria Realaus Buvimo efektą.Pagrindiniai žodžiai: teatras, istorija, vaizdas, laikas, vieta, Realus Buvimas.THE HISTORY OF ONE SPECTACLE (CHRONOLOGY AND TOPOGRAPHY OF „THE DESTROYED LAND“)Marija Oniščik SummaryThe text tells a story of „The Destroyed Land“ – the spectacle by Gintaras Varnas, considered as a spiral journey through time and places, paradigmatically showing the historical view of how the spectacle was born and performed, what literary images from Arthurian cycle gave rise to its plot and setting, what the historical and mythological import lies in the beginning of Grail legend, and what the sacramental meaning follows from it. The philosophical purpose of the text is to investigate the problem of time as it is presented in the spectacle together with treatment of place. It is argued that in the spectacle, there is a medieval view of history as „vertical“ time, presented paradigmatically as a whole, which reminds us of the Bergsonian conception of time with its instantaneous multiplicity. It is also proximate to medieval notion of aeviternity in Thomas Aquinas, as the mean between time and eternity, in which the succession of time treated as the changeableness of place, is compatible with being simultaneously whole. The text also analyses those features of the spectacle, which make it very similar to the medieval theatre with its simplicity of staging originated from liturgical drama. It is stated that here one has a sacred theatre, which has not a referential but a performative function to create a real world akin to the sacramental Real Presence, represented by the image of Grail. From the philosophical point of view, the religious longing for Grail can be treated as Derridian messianicity.Keywords: theatre, history. image, time, place, Real Presence.

Changing the tradition of history is a natural process of nature. In the context of the Dhrupad singing style in the Indian classical music world, if we take a historical view, the practice of singing Dhruva and Prabandha songs before this style was prevalent. The ritual form of Dhruva songs is found in Sanskrit drama texts from pre- to late India. Dhruva has an important place in terms of song composition.Even in the exorcisms used in the puvarang before the Natyarambha, the Dhruvas have special importance due to the use of musical instruments. Originally, the verses of songs which are used within the play are called Dhruva to make those situations intensified or to intensify the character of the characters in various situations of the play. They are also related to the lyricists due to their use of various parts of the lyricists. इतिहास की परम्परा में परिवर्तन होना प्रकृति की स्वाभाविक प्रक्रिया है। भारतीय शास्त्रीय संगीत जगत में ध्रुपद गायन शैली के सन्दर्भ मं हम ऐतिहासिक दृष्टि डालें तो इस शैली के पूर्व ध्रुवा एवं प्रबन्ध गीतों को गाने का प्रचलन था। ध्रुवा गीतों की परम्परा का क्रियात्मक रूप भरत के पूर्व से लेकर परवर्ती संस्कृत नाटक ग्रंथों में पाया जाता है। गीत रचना की दृष्टि से ध्रुवा का महत्त्वपूर्ण स्थान है।नाट्यारम्भ से पहले पूर्वरंग में प्रयुक्त बहिर्गीतों में भी ध्रुवाएं वाद्यप्रयोग की उपरंजक होने के कारण विशेष महत्व रखती हैं। मूलतः नाट्य की विभिन्न परिस्थितियों में रसानुभूति करा कर उन परिस्थितियों को तीव्र बनाने अथवा पात्रों के चरित्र को उभारने के लिए जिन छन्दोबद्ध गीतों का प्रयोग नाट्य के भीतर किया जाता है वे ध्रुवा कहलताी है। गीतकों के विभिन्न अंगों का इनमें प्रयोग होने के कारण ये गीतकों से भी सम्बन्ध है।

Abstract In traditional administrative models the public servant is emotionally conceptualized in a specific way, namely as a rationally acting and emotionally abstinent person. However, these are also models of observation that are strongly guided on the one hand by normative ideas and on the other by historical master narratives that focus on the development of a specifically occidental rationality. In particular, the emotional turn in historical science inspires us to take a critical view of such assumptions. But other approaches developed in other scientific disciplines also stimulate us to sharpen our historical view of the emotional aspects of bureaucracy: in jurisprudence “Law and Emotions” and in sociology “Sociology of Emotions”. This article presents these scientific approaches and tries to sound out their usefulness for the history of administration. In this way, it also serves as an introduction to this volume of the journal Administory.

This paper argues that “new” sustainable technologies being used to manage human waste—composting toilets, bioremediation, and biodigestion—are essentially reviving the medieval strategy of waste management: containment and reuse of waste, as opposed to the modern strategy of dilution and evacuation. This debate should not occur in a vacuum, uninformed by the motivations for, and history of, the development of the modern system. Therefore, this paper more closely examines the medieval system, which closely linked waste and agricultural production. It then considers the transformation to the modern system, using the design of Leonardo da Vinci's city of Romorantin as a case study. It is argued that this transformation was largely predicated on now-delegitimized miasmic theory, which held foul or corrupt air to be the cause of disease, and that it precipitated larger changes in the urban environment. In light of this historical view it is suggested that contemporary sustainable technologies imply larger changes in the form of human settlement, and that the nature of these changes must be explored further.

This research article considers the activities of the United Nations Organization, international relations, safety and reconciliation of the world states. Moreover, the paper informs about the First President of Kazakhstan N.A. Nazarbayev’s speeches at international UNO conferences of international importance, his world and global initiatives, including the decision to non-proliferation of nuclear weapons that has been supported throughout the world. Obviously, these initiatives have been supported by Secretary General UN Ban Ki – moon and others and have been concluded as one of the most important events and historical missions in modern history. The membership of Kazakhstan in the United Nations, its involvement in solving global problems, views and proposals of Kazakhstan on keeping peace and harmony among the world's nations have been well-recognized throughout the world. Kazakhstan connecting Europe and Asia on the transit route as a Eurasian country is situated geopolitically convenient. It occupies the 9th place on the world map. The population of the country is 18 million. The First President of Kazakhstan N.A. Nazarbayev is a globally recognized politician. Its recommendations and initiatives have been recognized worldwide. Therefore, it is obvious that the history of international relations and the activities of international organizations should be studied from historical view.
