I have chosen to use the word `` mimesis '' in its Christian rather than its classic implications and to discover in the concrete forms of both art and myth powers of theological expression which, as in the Christian mind, are the direct consequence of involvement in historical experience, which are not reserved, as in the Greek mind, only to moments of theoretical reflection.

As far as atoms and their electron shells were concerned, not only did this yield a better overall description, i. e. the atomic orbital model, but it also provided a new theoretical basis for chemistry

In theoretical computer science, currying provides a way to study functions with multiple arguments in very simple theoretical models such as the lambda calculus in which functions only take a single argument.

Hilbert's funeral was attended by fewer than a dozen people, only two of whom were fellow academics, among them Arnold Sommerfeld, a theoretical physicist and also a native of Königsberg.

The way elemental oppositions are put to work in all texts it's not only a theoretical operation but also a practical option.

Such processes and devices can only be driven by convertible energy, and have a theoretical maximum efficiency when converting energy to work.

* They are very inefficient ; a theoretical maximum of 50 % is obtainable with inductive output coupling and only 25 % with capacitive coupling, unless deliberate use of nonlinearities is made ( such as in square-law output stages ).

For the theoretical studies only, Ettore Majorana also took part in what was soon nicknamed " the Via Panisperna boys " ( after the name of the street where the Physics Institute was ).

Both magnitude (" relative strength ") and " range ", as given in the table, are meaningful only within a rather complex theoretical framework.

Yet the theory entered the mainstream of theoretical physics and astrophysics only with the developments between approximately 1960 and 1975, now known as the golden age of general relativity.

The theoretical maximum efficiency of any heat engine depends only on the temperatures it operates between.

* Although the mean speed of the electron in hydrogen is only 1 / 137th of the speed of light, many modern experiments are sufficiently precise that a complete theoretical explanation requires a fully relativistic treatment of the problem.

The " received view " operates on the correspondence rule that states " The observational terms are taken as referring to specified phenomena or phenomenal properties, and the only interpretation given to the theoretical terms is their explicit definition provided by the correspondence rules.

Gary Fields, Professor of Labor Economics and Economics at Cornell University, argues that the standard " textbook model " for the minimum wage is " ambiguous ", and that the standard theoretical arguments incorrectly measure only a one-sector market.

The unary system is only useful for small numbers, although it plays an important role in theoretical computer science.

Although he privately circulated The Prince among friends, the only theoretical work to be printed in his lifetime was The Art of War, about military science.

They are, in my opinion, the most outstanding figures ( among the youngest ones ), and the following must be borne in mind about them: Bukharin is not only a most valuable and major theorist of the Party ; he is also rightly considered the favourite of the whole Party, but his theoretical views can be classified as fully Marxist only with great reserve, for there is something scholastic about him ( he has never made a study of the dialectics, and, I think, never fully understood it )...

This is the result of the theoretical view that the court is only interpreting the view of the legislature and that detailed exposition is unnecessary.

In 1927 the Court appointed a committee to look at this issue, and it reported that " where there are in fact contending parties, the difference between contentious cases and advisory cases is only nominal ... so the view that advisory opinions are not binding is more theoretical than real ".

The constitutional monarchies of the former British Empire and Western Europe today have almost all real political power vested in the elected representatives, with the monarchs only holding either theoretical powers, no powers or rarely used reserve powers.

The central role of syntax within theoretical linguistics became clear only in the 20th century, which could reasonably be called the " century of syntactic theory " as far as linguistics is concerned.

An often stated ambition of systems biology is the modeling and discovery of emergent properties, properties of a system whose theoretical description is only possible using techniques which fall under the remit of systems biology.

De Lesseps therefore tried to increase revenues by interpreting the kind of net ton referred to in the second concession ( tonneau de capacité ) as meaning a ship's real freight capacity and not only the theoretical net tonnage of the Moorsom System introduced in Britain by the Merchant Shipping Act in 1854.

Since the great flood of these dystopias has appeared only in the last twelve years, it seems fairly reasonable to assume that the chief impetus was the 1949 publication of Nineteen Eighty-Four, an assumption which is supported by the frequent echoes of such details as Room 101, along with education by conditioning from Brave New World, a book to which science-fiction writers may well have returned with new interest after reading the more powerful Orwell dystopia.

Indeed, as already noted, the Court proceeded on the assumption that the executives involved in the dealings between Du Pont and General Motors acted `` honorably and fairly '' and exercised their business judgment only to serve what they deemed the best interests of their own companies.

The underlying assumption, of course, is that only sight and touch enable us, in any precise and fully dependable way, to locate objects in space beyond us, the other senses being decidedly inferior, if not totally inadequate, in this regard.

What I find appalling -- and really dangerous -- is the American assumption that the Negro is so contented with his lot here that only the cynical agents of a foreign power can rouse him to protest.

He also speaks of Franklin D. Roosevelt's `` puerile '' assumption that `` if only he ( Stalin ) could be exposed to the persuasive charm of someone like F.D.R. himself, ideological preconceptions would melt and Russia's co-operation with the West could be easily arranged ''.

The assumption that Altaic is a valid family, but only consists of Japonic, Korean and Tungusic, appears to be restricted to Unger ( 1990 ).

Central to his behaviour in the later novels is the underlying assumption that particular crimes are only committed by particular types of people.

A null-homotopic map has degree zero, contradicting our only assumption, namely that f exists.

The assumption of differentiability or even continuity is questionable since the Boolean algebra of statements may only be finite.

As seen earlier, exploitation of land and labour is essential for human social advance, but only on the assumption that the product is made available within the area where the exploitation takes place.

The surface / phonological distinction is only descriptive, and devoid of any etiological assumption as to the underlying brain mechanisms.

However, this conclusion is based on the assumption that current evolutionary theory and intelligent design are the only two valid models to explain life, a false dilemma.

The first men were, in this case, a family of gigantic, sensitive mandragores, animated by the sun, who rooted themselves up from the earth ; this assumption not only does not exclude, but, on the contrary, positively supposes, creative will and the providential co-operation of a first cause, which we have reason to call God.

In the 1890s, Planck was able to derive the blackbody spectrum which was later used to avoid the classical ultraviolet catastrophe by making the unorthodox assumption that, in the interaction of radiation with matter, energy could only be exchanged in discrete units which he called quanta.

This includes the methodological naturalism of natural science, which makes the methodological assumption that observable events in nature are explained only by natural causes, without assuming either the existence or non-existence of the supernatural.

Both of these remarks, of course, are made only for the present, on the assumption that both these outstanding and devoted Party workers fail to find an occasion to enhance their knowledge and amend their one-sidedness.

RSA relies on the assumption that it is much easier ( i. e., more efficient ) to perform the multiplication of two ( large ) numbers x and y than to calculate x and y ( assumed coprime ) if only the product xy is known.

Since we've assumed that we can infallibly identify programs for computing squares, we can determine whether t, which depends on a and i, is such a program, and that for every a and i ; thus we have obtained a program that decides whether program a halts on input i. Note that our halting-decision algorithm never executes t, but only passes its description to the squaring-identification program, which by assumption always terminates ; since the construction of the description of t can also be done in a way that always terminates, the halting-decision cannot fail to halt either.

R. F. Littledale criticized the Sun myth theory when he illustrated that Max Müller on his own principles was himself only a Solar myth, whilst Alfred Lyall delivered a still stronger attack on the same theory and its assumption that tribal gods and heroes, such as those of Homer, were mere reflections of the Sun myth by proving that the gods of certain Rajput clans were really warriors who founded the clans not many centuries ago, and were the ancestors of the present chieftains.

This includes not only its selection of animal badges for Cub Scouts, but the underlying assumption that American native peoples are more closely connected with nature and therefore have special wilderness survival skills which can be used as part of the training program.

In the classical account strictly and purely in terms of cyclic processes, the spatial interior of the ' working body ' of a cyclic process is not considered ; the ' working body ' thus does not have a defined internal thermodynamic state of its own because no assumption is made that it should be in thermodynamic equilibrium ; only its inputs and outputs of energy as heat and work are considered.

For processes that involve only suitably small and smooth spatial inhomogeneities and suitably small changes with time, a good approximation can be found through the assumption of local thermodynamic equilibrium.

The proof relies on the assumption that mass is constant ; this is valid only in non-relativistic systems in which no mass is being ejected.

As for the composition date of Mozart's Variations, for a time the variations were thought to have been composed in 1778, while Mozart stayed in Paris from April to September in that year, the assumption being that the melody of a French song could only have been picked up by Mozart while residing in France.

His original 16-bit design was based on the assumption that only those scripts and characters in modern use would need to be encoded:
