    Melancholy of the Beauty. The Hymn to Pulchritudo of St. Augustine

    Get PDF
    In Book X of his Confessions, Augustine calls God Pulchritudo, “Beauty”. This “Beauty” is invoked at a point in his book where we move from biographical elements to a series of philosophical and theological treatises on Creation and Time. Creatures possess beauty, only the Creator is beauty in himself, free of disharmony, and only He can grant access to His beauty. This irruption of Pulchritudo lighting up his memoirs gives Augustine’s life a new meaning. This is where he confesses his transgressions, through hymns of praise, and eventually through a life marked by the longing to eventually meet Beauty. There is great melancholy in the Confessions which the hymn to Pulchritudo gives both the tone and the key to understanding to.YVES-MARIE LEQUIN – dominikanin z klasztoru w Nicei.

    “Why have I become a burden to you?” Disability and Holiness: A Reading of Job 7:20

    Get PDF
    This article explores disability and holiness in light of the neutral theme of burden as it appears in the Book of Job. Job is afflicted by evil and is revolted by it; yet, he ends up accepting this mystery. Job’s example expands the definition of “holiness” to include one of its key elements: the gift of a word of freedom that can give rise to prophetic vulnerability.Theological Faculty of Nice Sophia-AntipolisArambasin, N. “Le corps crucifiĂ©.” Communications 60(1995): 141-154.Eschyle, PromĂ©thĂ©e EnchaĂźnĂ©, 1220 [980].

    Methodological reporting in feasibility studies : a descriptive review of the nursing intervention research literature

    Full text link
    Background In reaction to weaknesses in feasibility studies reporting, the Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT) statement published an extension for feasibility studies in 2016. Aim The aim of this study was to systematically review and appraise the reporting of feasibility studies in the nursing intervention research literature based on the CONSORT statement extension for feasibility studies. Method Papers published prior to January 2018 that described feasibility studies of nursing interventions were retrieved. Components of feasibility studies were coded, and code frequencies were analysed. Results The review included 186 papers. Although most papers (n = 142, 76.3%) included the label ‘pilot’ or ‘feasibility’ in their title, reporting for other components generally did not adhere to one or several CONSORT recommendations. Most papers reported objectives (n = 116, 62.4%), designs (n = 95, 51%), or rationales for sample size (n = 165, 88.7%) that were incongruent with the purpose of feasibility studies. Discussion This review results in two main implications for nursing research. First, we noted that the reporting of feasibility studies is weak. While all papers described feasibility studies, almost half focused exclusively on testing the effectiveness of an intervention. Second, we identified rationales for sample size along with key references that could offer guidance in reporting feasibility studies while being coherent with the CONSORT recommendations

    Combined cardiological and neurological abnormalities due to filamin A gene mutation

    Background: Cardiac defects can be the presenting symptom in patients with mutations in the X-linked gene FLNA. Dysfunction of this gene is associated with cardiac abnormalities, especially in the left ventricular outflow tract, but can also cause a congenital malformation of the cerebral cortex. We noticed that some patients diagnosed at the neurogenetics clinic had first presented to a cardiologist, suggesting that earlier recognition may be possible if the diagnosis is suspected. Methods and results: From the Erasmus MC cerebral malformations database 24 patients were identified with cerebral bilateral periventricular nodular heterotopia (PNH) without other cerebral cortical malformations. In six of these patients, a pathogenic mutation in FLNA was present. In five a cardiac defect was also found in the outflow tract. Four had presented to a cardiologist before the cerebral abnormalities were diagnosed. Conclusions: The cardiological phenotype typically consists of aortic or mitral regurgitation, coarctation of the aorta or other left-sided cardiac malformations. Most patients in this category will not have a FLNA mutation, but the presence of neurological complaints, hyperlaxity of the skin or joints and/or a family history with similar cardiac or neurological problems in a possibly X-linked pattern may alert the clinician to the possibility of a FLNA mutation

    Distinctive phenotypic abnormalities associated with submicroscopic 21q22 deletion including DYRK1A

    Partial monosomy 21 has been reported, but the phenotypes described are variable with location and size of the deletion. We present 2 patients with a partially overlapping microdeletion of 21q22 and a striking phenotypic resemblance. They both presented with severe psychomotor delay, behavioral problems, no speech, microcephaly, feeding problems with frequent regurgi

    Analyse de l’émergence d’un modĂšle de gestion intĂ©grĂ©e de la forĂȘt publique : le cas de la SociĂ©tĂ© des Ă©tablissements de plein air du QuĂ©bec (SÉPAQ)

    No full text
    Le secteur forestier constitue une activitĂ© Ă©conomique majeure Ă  l’échelle du QuĂ©bec. Depuis environ une vingtaine d’annĂ©es, le gouvernement du QuĂ©bec confie Ă  une sociĂ©tĂ© d’État, la SociĂ©tĂ© des Ă©tablissements de plein air du QuĂ©bec (SÉPAQ), la gestion d’établissements rĂ©partis sur l’ensemble du territoire quĂ©bĂ©cois. On en compte actuellement prĂšs d’une cinquantaine couvrant une superficie totale de 78 600 kilomĂštres carrĂ©s et regroupĂ©s en trois secteurs : les rĂ©serves fauniques et la SÉPAQ Anticosti (72 166 km2), le rĂ©seau des parcs nationaux du QuĂ©bec (6368 km2) et les centres touristiques (100 km2). Le prĂ©sent article vise Ă  analyser la dĂ©marche Ă©volutive de gestion intĂ©grĂ©e dĂ©veloppĂ©e, en action, par la SÉPAQ depuis sa crĂ©ation et au fil des diffĂ©rents mandats qui lui ont Ă©tĂ© confiĂ©s par le gouvernement. La mission de la SÉPAQ est d’assurer l’accessibilitĂ© de territoires et d’équipements publics situĂ©s majoritairement dans un environnement forestier, de les mettre en valeur et de les protĂ©ger au bĂ©nĂ©fice de sa clientĂšle, des rĂ©gions du QuĂ©bec et des gĂ©nĂ©rations futures. Cette triple mission est Ă©galement investie d’un rĂŽle de levier de dĂ©veloppement Ă©conomique dans les rĂ©gions oĂč la SÉPAQ exploite des Ă©tablissements. Ce rĂŽle s’est traduit par la mise en place de partenariats avec des entreprises privĂ©es et des ententes spĂ©cifiques avec des organismes du milieu, tant pour le secteur des parcs que ceux des rĂ©serves fauniques et des centres touristiques. Dans cette perspective, la sociĂ©tĂ© a choisi une logique de gestion privilĂ©giant des « liens forts », en associant diverses parties prenantes concernĂ©es par les projets dĂ©veloppĂ©s. De façon plus gĂ©nĂ©rale, cette Ă©tude de cas montre que la logique propre Ă  un systĂšme de gestion intĂ©grĂ©e des ressources ne saurait ĂȘtre comprise uniquement Ă  partir de sa forme actuelle plus achevĂ©e ; elle montre aussi qu’elle est autant la rĂ©sultante d’une dynamique interne Ă  l’organisation, Ă  ses parties prenantes, aux mandats qui lui sont confiĂ©s ainsi qu’aux contingences auxquelles elle doit s’adapter pour y rĂ©pondre, oĂč tous les facteurs contribuent au façonnement d’un modĂšle de gestion qui rĂ©sulte d’initiatives et d’adaptations stratĂ©giques,  tant Ă  caractĂšre Ă©mergent que dĂ©libĂ©rĂ© dans le temps (au sens de Mintzberg et al., 1999)
