    This study discusses beauty discourse in the era of Romanticism. Beauty discourse was produced through Byron poems from 1813-1815. Byron was one of the leading figures in the Romantic movement who was influential at the time. We use three Byron poems as the main data for this study. These poems are She Walks in Beauty (1814), Sonnet to Genevra (1813), and Stanzas for Music (1815). The concept of beauty produced by the three poems above connects physical beauty and intellectual beauty with natural elements as one of the great themes of the Romanticism era. The concept of beauty at that time was closely related to the romantic society of England. Referring to this reason, Stuart Hall's representation theory and discursive approach by Michel Foucault are used as a tool to analyze the above problems. The results of this study indicate that the concept of beauty in the romantic era (1) emphasizes intellectual beauty or beyond the physical itself as a concept of beauty in that era. In addition, three concepts of beauty, physical beauty, intellectual beauty, and natural beauty will always lead to divine beauty, where all life comes from Him, and (2) The three poems make beauty an instrument to criticize the presence of the industrial revolution at that time which is considered to cause chaos in romantic life

    The Improbabilities of Theoretical Physics & Mathematics

    Traditional representations of physical and mathematical theories are displayed through words in a textbook or with limited visuals. In this concentration, I celebrate the complexity of such theories and give them due representation of their true beauty through art, the form in which beauty often cannot be described with words or simple visuals. In order, the pieces are named The Speed of Light, The Paint Can Problem, Multiverse, Schrodinger’s Cat, Spirographs & Polar Equations, Fractals, Occam’s Razor, Murphy’s Law, Chaos Theory, and The Large Hadron Collider and the Unified Theory of Physics.https://scholarsmine.mst.edu/libcom_stuart_summer2017/1012/thumbnail.jp

    Beauty in Mathematics: Symmetry and Fractality

    Get PDF
    The most important concepts underlying beauty are the concepts of symmetry and fractality, but the relationship of these concepts has not yet remained clear. For centuries, beauty was understood only as a stable order and symmetry. Synergetic worldview allows us to give a new assessment: beauty can be seen as an attractor, the result of self-organization of nature, or the flight of human thought. On the one hand, fractality can be considered one of the manifestations of symmetry in an expansive sense. On the other hand, symmetry can be considered a manifestation of fractality with a finite number of iterations. Thus, the concepts of symmetry and fractality are closely interrelated. Symmetry reveals in beauty a stable order, and fractality reflects in beauty the result of the self-organization of the chaos of nature or the freedom of human thought. Symmetry and fractality are two opposites, mutually complementing each other, aesthetically and mathematically mutually passing into each other. Thus, symmetry and fractals are the most important concepts for the disclosure of the beauty of the universe, which determine their importance for learning. The concept of self-similarity can serve as a basis for acquaintance with fractals

    THE ROLE OF REASON IN PLATO’S PHILOSOPHY

    The world of the Platonic teaching is a realm of changelessness for a heart saddened by the spectacle of inevitable change. It is order for a mind perturbed by a nightmare of endless chaos. It is the cosmos of reason, of which one may have a glimpse in anything of beauty ... It is the pattern which the mind of man may come to know ... (Edman 1927: xxxviii

    Chaos on Set-Valued Dynamics and Control Sets

    Get PDF
    The aim of this chapter is threefold. First, we show some advances in complexity dynamics of set-valued discrete systems in connection with the Devaney’s notion of chaos. Secondly, we start to explore some relationships between control sets for the class of linear control systems on Lie groups with chaotic sets. Finally, through several open problems, we invite the readers to give a contribution to this beauty theory

    Transforming Chaos into Beauty: Intentionally Developing Unity in Church Plants

    Get PDF
    This paper describes how unity can be developed in young church planting contexts. Two dimensions of unity are explored: Task cohesiveness and Relational cohesiveness. Empirically verified approaches to increasing both dimensions of unity in organizations are presented along with applications for church planting

    Chaos and Order in Nature/Creation: A Reading of Genesis l-2:4a in Dialogue with Science and Philosophy

    Full text link
    With inspiration from post-modern scientific theories (complexity theory, chaos theory, relativity theory, uncertainty theory, no-singularity/boundary theory), and from philosophical understandings of nature (ecstatic naturalism and Taoism), the author offers an innovative reading of the Genesis creation stories, focusing on the concepts of order and chaos. While criticizing the dichotomous dualism that underpins the human ordering system, she connects these rich meanings and wisdom signified by nature with theological discourse through a discussion of the infinity of God, the abjection of origin, the autonomy of creatures, and nature's complex and fluid manifestations.ye
