    Marie, paradigme de foi de la Nouvelle Alliance. Une analyse narrative de Lc 1,5-2,52

    Get PDF
    Marie, le paradigme de foi de la Nouvelle Alliance Luc exprime sa théologie à travers la narration, rendant l'analyse de ses techniques narratives fort utile pour découvrir les thèmes de son œuvre ainsi que les relations entre eux. L'analyse narrative est particulièrement fructueuse dans les deux premiers chapitres du troisième évangile, sept épisodes entrelacés de matériel exclusif à l'auteur, connu comme le « prologue de l'enfance ». Racontant les naissances parallèles de Jean et de Jésus, ce prologue relie les deux Testaments, montrant que ces naissances miraculeuses sont le début de l'accomplissement des promesses anciennes. Celles-ci annonçaient les ministères de Jean et de Jésus dans lesquels les promesses s'accompliraient pleinement. Ces récits sont structurés par un cadre de promesses et d'accomplissements auquel les acteurs humains répondent selon divers degrés de foi et d'interprétation juste. Non seulement le prologue met-il en valeur l'action divine, la gloire et l'humilité paradoxale de l'incarnation, mais on y retrouve aussi l'axe de la réponse humaine. En effet, tout comme la réponse de foi d'Abraham à la promesse divine fait de lui le père de la première Alliance, la réponse de foi de Marie à une promesse sans précédent et encore plus impossible fait d'elle le modèle de croyant de la Nouvelle Alliance. Dans la seconde phase du prologue, Marie demeure modèle par son choix de méditer. À travers plusieurs techniques narratives, l'évangéliste invite le lecteur à s'identifier à ce personnage humble et empathique. Entourée d'une constellation d'anciens vénérables, dignes représentants du meilleur de l'Ancienne Alliance (Zacharie, Élizabeth, Siméon et Anne) la jeune Marie brille comme le paradigme du croyant de la Nouvelle Alliance qui reconnaît la grâce de Dieu, embrasse sa promesse et médite longtemps sur tout ce qui la bouleverse et l'émerveille de l'action divine, la repassant et la conservant dans son cœur.Mary, the paradigm of the New Testament believer Luke expresses his theology through narration, making close attention to his narrative techniques essential to discover both his major themes and the relations between them. Narrative criticism is particularly useful in the first two chapters of the third gospel, seven interwoven episodes of material exclusive to this gospel, known as Luke's "infancy prologue". Recounting the parallel births of John and Jesus, the prologue looks both back to the Old Covenant hopes and forward to the ministries of John and Jesus to show that these births are answers to the ancient promises. The stories of John and Jesus are structured around a framework of promise and fulfillment to which human actors respond with varying degrees of faith and correct interpretation. In addition to showcasing divine visitation, and the paradoxical glory and humility of the incarnation, the prologue develops the axis of the human response. Just as Abraham's response of faith to the divine promise makes him the father of the covenant people, so Mary's response of faith to an even more impossible and unprecedented promise makes her the first of the new covenant people. Mary's faith shines brightly after Zachariah's doubt; it is praised by spirit-filled prophecy, expressed in song. In the second phase of the prologue, through several narrative techniques, the narrator invites identification with this humble and empathetic character, especially in her choice to ruminate what she cannot fathom. Surrounded by a constellation of venerable elders, representatives of the best of the Old Covenant--Zechariah, Elisabeth, Simeon and Anne--young Mary shines as the believer of the New Covenant who recognizes the undeserved favour of God, embraces his promise and chooses to treasure all that amazes and overwhelms her of divine action in her life

    Mobile Devices for Early Literacy Intervention and Research with Global Reach

    Get PDF
    Extensive work focuses on the uses of technology at scale for post-literate populations (e.g., MOOC, Learning Games, LMS’s). Little attention is afforded to non-literate populations, particularly in the developing world. This paper presents an approach using mobile devices with the ultimate goal to reach 770 million people. We developed a novel platform with a cloud backend to deliver educational content to over a thousand marginalized children in different countries:specifically, in remote villages without schools, urban slums with overcrowded schools, and at-risk, rural schools. Here we describe the theoretical basis of our system and results from case studies in three educational contexts. This model will help researchers and designers understand how mobile devices can help children acquire basic skills and aid each other’s learning when the benefit of teachers is limited or non-existent.Italian Development CouncilMRP FoundationRoanoke County School

    Diseño de un sistema de seguridad electrónica con monitoreo centralizado para protección de una instalación minera

    Get PDF
    La Seguridad Electrónica es una alternativa eficiente para la reducción de pérdidas de bienes en el ámbito empresarial. Actualmente, la Seguridad Electrónica ha ido potenciando su utilidad, convirtiéndose en uno de los elementos básicos de Vigilancia. En las instalaciones industriales, la Seguridad Electrónica consiste de un sistema integrado compuesto de subsistemas de circuito cerrado de televisión, control de alarmas, control de acceso y protección contra incendios, los cuales, además de producir un efecto disuasivo, ayudan a los administradores a vigilar de manera local y/o desde una central de monitoreo el acceso de personas no autorizadas a zonas restringidas. La presente tesis tiene como objetivo el diseño de un sistema de seguridad electrónica para protección de una instalación minera, el cual contará con un centro de control integrado para la administración, control y monitoreo de circuito cerrado de televisión y alarmas. En la presente tesis se describen los conceptos básicos de los sistemas de seguridad electrónica. El desarrollo del sistema de seguridad propuesto incluye tres fases. En la primera fase, se realiza el diseño y arquitectura del sistema. En la segunda fase se presenta la planificación y gestión del proyecto. Finalmente en la tercera etapa se realiza un análisis comparativo que permite comprobar la eficiencia (en empresas a fin de constatar el costo-beneficio a corto plazo) del Sistema de Seguridad Electrónica propuesto frente a personal de Vigilancia.Tesi
