‘Why is it that a photograph always looks clear and sharp, — not at all like a Turner?’ John Ruskin & Perceptual Aberration by Lawrence Gasquet

“…The presence of the camera becomes prominent among scientific and artistic discourses of the 19th century; it is also fundamental to John Ruskin’s aesthetic theory, as a close study of several of his writings shows. Photography reveals for instance the existence of some physiological distortions in human perception, and perceptual aberration was analysed at great length by John Ruskin, whether it be revealed by Turner’s art or by the daguerreotypist’s talent or lack of skill. …”

The characteristics of Roman Private Law Sources by K. S. Naumenko

“…It is argued that the key sources of Roman Private Law should be divided into the following groups: laws (leges) – these were normative acts issued by the legislative bodies of the Roman Republic or Empire (the most important laws were the XII Tables (Lex Duodecim Tabularum), which became the first codified law in Roman history); customs (mores) – these were the norms of behaviour which were generally recognised by the Roman public (customs arose from complex relationships between people and resolved certain issues which laws did not regulate); judicial decisions (iudicia) were court decisions that served as an example for subsequent decisions in similar cases (they were considered one of the most important sources of Roman Private Law, as they ensured legal stability and progressive development of law); legal writings (responsa, iura, commentarii) were works of famous Roman lawyers containing legal opinions and views on various issues of law (they became an important source of law as they provided interpretation of laws and established legal practice); agreements (pacta) were agreements between parties on certain issues (they played an important role in Roman Private Law as they provided legal protection to the parties and regulated their relations). …”

Rethinking the <i>Unio Mystica</i>: From McGinn to Ibn ʿArabī by Arjun Nair

“…By unpacking the primary terms involved in such an account—“God”, the “human being/self”, and “union”—from within the conceptual and theoretical horizons of that tradition, it problematizes the prevailing understanding of the <i>unio mystica</i> constructed from the writings of specialists in Christian mysticism. More importantly, it illustrates the payoff in terms of dialogue (incorporating the critique of existing theories) when each tradition operates confidently from its own milieu, developing its own theoretical resources for mysticism rather than prematurely embracing existing ideas or categories.…”
