  • Women Priests, Symbolic Violence, and Symbolic Resistance
    Women Priests, Symbolic Violence, and Symbolic Resistance

    This book explores, from a feminist sociological viewpoint, the ways gender is constructed in the priesthood in the Church of England, and the political, emotional, and spiritual resources generated by women priests in their resistance praxis against a discriminating structure.Despite the increasing numbers of women being ordained, the Church continues to structurally support and legitimise the view that the priesthood should be exclusively male, and women priests still experience gender discrimination and/or differentiation.Drawing on Bourdieu’s notion of symbolic violence, the book aims to fill a gap in the research literature by showing how women priests do not necessarily misrecognise or collude in their domination but engage in hidden resistances and subversions.Based on empirical research, the study reveals that whilst there are barriers to protesting and complaining in conventional ways, there are also significant resistances in how women priests perform their role.The themes addressed are relevant for sociologists of religion and scholars of gender and women’s studies, as well as those with an interest in theology and Christian ministry.

  • Symbolic Logic
    Symbolic Logic

    This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the essential elements of standard (classical) symbolic logic.Key topics covered include: · The characteristic nature and scope of logic as a discipline· The construction of a series of distinctly named formal languages suitable for formal translation· Semantic models· The construction of decision procedures· The execution of proof-theoretic arrangements like natural deduction and proof-sequent systemsThe book covers both the semantics and proof theory of the standard sentential (propositional) logic and predicate (first-order) logic.Other topics covered include: parsing trees,extraction of alternative notations (for instance, Polish notation), Fitch-style proof-theory, sequent and ‘tree’ proof systems, comparisons and contrasts with intuitionistic logic, and presentations of predicate logic models.An ancillary chapter on elements of set theory is conveniently placed at the end and includes insights into the Zermelo-Fraenkel systematization of set theory.The philosophy of logic is also explored. Exercises in the text provide instruction on mathematical induction for the construction of formula, tests for the well-formedness of Polish notation, and functional completeness. Symbolic Logic is essential reading for all philosophy students taking intermediate level formal logic courses and will also appeal to diligent first year students of logic.The text is replete with exercises on both the formal machinery and the philosophical aspects of logic.

  • Isn't that symbolic?

    Yes, that is symbolic. Symbolism is the use of symbols to represent ideas or qualities. When something is described as symbolic, it means that it represents something beyond its literal meaning. It can convey deeper meanings or themes, adding layers of significance to the subject at hand.

  • Are parables both religious, as in the case of Jesus, and symbolic poetry symbolic, and do you think dreams are symbolic?

    Yes, parables are both religious and symbolic poetry. In the case of Jesus, his parables were used to convey moral and spiritual lessons to his followers, and they often contained symbolic elements that required interpretation. Similarly, symbolic poetry uses imagery and metaphor to convey deeper meanings and truths. As for dreams, many people believe that they are symbolic in nature, representing subconscious thoughts, desires, and fears. Dreams often contain elements that can be interpreted as symbolic representations of the dreamer's inner world.

  • What is a symbolic euro?

    A symbolic euro is a representation of the euro currency that is used in a non-monetary context to signify the economic or political significance of the eurozone. It can be used in discussions, presentations, or media to represent the euro currency without actually exchanging physical money. Symbolic euros are often used in educational settings or in political commentary to illustrate concepts related to the eurozone and its impact on the European Union.

  • How does symbolic computation work?

    Symbolic computation involves manipulating mathematical expressions and equations using symbols and rules, rather than numerical values. This allows for the manipulation of complex mathematical expressions, including algebraic, trigonometric, and calculus operations, without needing to compute specific numerical values. Symbolic computation systems use algorithms and rules to perform operations such as simplification, differentiation, integration, and solving equations symbolically, providing exact solutions in terms of symbols and variables. This approach is particularly useful in mathematics, engineering, and scientific research, where exact symbolic solutions are often needed for further analysis and interpretation.

  • Symbolic Exchange and Death
    Symbolic Exchange and Death

    Jean Baudrillard is one of the most celebrated and most controversial of contemporary social theorists.This major work occupies a central place in the rethinking of the humanities and social sciences around the idea of postmodernism. It leads the reader on an exhilarating tour encompassing the end of Marxism, the enchantment of fashion, symbolism about sex and the body, and the relations between economic exchange and death.Most significantly, the book represents Baudrillard's fullest elaboration of the concept of the three orders of the simulacra, defining the historical passage from production to reproduction to simulation. A classic in its field, Symbolic Exchange and Death is a key source for the redefinition of contemporary social thought.Baudrillard's critical gaze appraises social theories as diverse as cybernetics, ethnography, psychoanalysis, feminism, Marxism, communications theory and semiotics. This English translation begins with a new introductory essay.

  • Manet : A Symbolic Revolution
    Manet : A Symbolic Revolution

    What is a 'symbolic revolution'? What happens when a symbolic revolutions occurs, how can it succeed and prevail and why is it so difficult to understand?Using the exemplary case of Édouard Manet, Pierre Bourdieu began to ponder these questions as early as the 1980s, before making it the focus of his lectures in his last years at the Collége de France.This second volume of Bourdieu's previously unpublished lectures provides his most sustained contribution to the sociology of art and the analysis of cultural fields.It is also a major contribution to our understanding of impressionism and the works of Manet. Bourdieu treats the paintings of Manet as so many challenges to the conservative academicism of the pompier painters, the populism of the Realists, the commercial eclecticism of genre painting, and even the 'Impressionists', showing that such a revolution is inseparable from the conditions that allow fields of cultural production to emerge.At a time when the Academy was in crisis and when the increase in the number of painters challenged the role of the state in defining artistic value, the break that Manet inaugurated revolutionised the aesthetic order.The new vision of the world that emerged from this upheaval still shapes our categories of perception and judgement today - the very categories that we use everday to understand the representations of the world and the world itself. This major work by one of the greatest sociologists of the last 50 years will be of great interest to students and scholars in sociology, art history and the social sciences and humanities generally.It will also appeal to a wide readership interested in art, in impressionism and in the works of Manet.

  • Perspective as Symbolic Form
    Perspective as Symbolic Form

    Erwin Panofsky's Perspective as Symbolic Form is one of the great works of modern intellectual history, the legendary text that has dominated all art historical and philosophical discussions on the topic of perspective in this century.Finally available in English, it is an unrivaled example of Panofsky's early method that placed him within broader developments in theories of knowledge and cultural change.Here, drawing on a massive body of learning that ranges over Antique philosophy, theology, science, and optics as well as the history of art, Panofsky produces a type of "archaeology" of Western representation that far surpasses the usual scope of art historical studies.Perspective in Panofsky's hands becomes a central component of a Western "will to form," the expression of a schema linking the social, cognitive, psychological, and especially technical practices of a given culture into harmonious and integrated wholes.Yet the perceptual schema of each historical culture or epoch is different, and each gives rise to a different but equally full vision of the world.Panofsky articulates these different spatial systems, demonstrating their particular coherence and compatibility with the modes of knowledge, belief, and exchange that characterized the cultures in which they arose.Our own modernity, Panofsky shows, is characterized by its peculiarly mathematical expression of the concept of the infinite, within a space that is necessarily both continuous and homogeneous.

  • How to create a symbolic link?

    To create a symbolic link, you can use the `ln` command in the terminal. The basic syntax is `ln -s target link_name`, where `target` is the file or directory you want to link to, and `link_name` is the name of the symbolic link you want to create. For example, to create a symbolic link named `link_to_file` that points to a file named `original_file`, you would use the command `ln -s original_file link_to_file`. This creates a symbolic link that can be used to access the contents of the original file.

  • What are examples of symbolic matrices?

    Some examples of symbolic matrices include the identity matrix, which is a square matrix with ones on the main diagonal and zeros elsewhere; the zero matrix, which is a matrix where all elements are zero; and the diagonal matrix, which is a matrix where all off-diagonal elements are zero. These matrices are often used to represent specific mathematical concepts and operations, and they can be manipulated symbolically without specifying their numerical values.

  • How do you solve symbolic matrices?

    To solve symbolic matrices, you can use techniques such as Gaussian elimination, matrix inversion, or eigenvalue decomposition. Gaussian elimination involves performing row operations to transform the matrix into reduced row-echelon form, from which you can solve for the unknown variables. Matrix inversion involves finding the inverse of the matrix and then multiplying it with the right-hand side to solve for the unknown variables. Eigenvalue decomposition involves finding the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the matrix, which can be used to solve systems of linear equations. These techniques can be applied to symbolic matrices by using algebraic manipulation and solving for the unknown variables.

  • What is a symbolic equation 2?

    A symbolic equation 2 is an equation that represents a relationship between two or more variables using symbols and mathematical operations. It is a way to express a mathematical relationship without specifying specific numerical values. Symbolic equations are often used in algebra and other areas of mathematics to represent general relationships and to solve for unknown variables. They are also used in physics, engineering, and other scientific fields to model and analyze real-world phenomena.
