It became the expectation — rather than the exception — that those in the public eye should write about themselves — not only writers such as Charles Dickens ( who also incorporated autobiographical elements in his novels ) and Anthony Trollope, but also politicians ( e. g. Henry Brooks Adams ), philosophers ( e. g. John Stuart Mill ), churchmen such as Cardinal Newman, and entertainers such as P. T. Barnum.

Among other composers who set Housman songs were John Ireland ( song cycle, Land of Lost Content ), Michael Head ( e. g. ' Ludlow Fair '), Graham Peel ( a famous version of ' In Summertime on Bredon '), Ian Venables ( Songs of Eternity and Sorrow ), and the American Samuel Barber ( e. g. ' With rue my heart is laden ').

In the New Testament e. g. Matthew 1: 1, 1: 18 ; Mark 1: 1 ; John 1: 17 ; 17: 3 ; 9: 22 ; Mark 9: 40 ; Luke 2: 11 ; 22: 2, the word Christ is preceded by Jesus.

According to Partridge ( 1972: 12 ), it dates from around 1840 and arose in the East End of London, however John Camden Hotten in his 1859 Dictionary of Modern Slang, Cant and Vulgar Words states that ( English ) rhyming slang originated " about twelve or fifteen years ago " ( i. e. in the 1840s ) with ' chaunters ' and ' patterers ' in the Seven Dials area of London.

The first 14 verses of the Gospel of John are devoted to the divinity of Jesus as the Logos, usually translated as " Word ", along with his pre-existence, and they emphasize the cosmic significance of Christ, e. g.: " All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made.

Although the more radical consequences of the global communication network predicted by some cyberspace proponents ( i. e. the diminishing of state influence envisioned by John Perry Barlow ) failed to materialize and the word lost some of its novelty appeal, it remains current as of 2006.

Nevertheless, all the distinctive Christadelphian doctrines, down to interpretations of specific verses, can be found particularly among 16th century Socinian writers ( e. g. the rejection of the doctrines of the trinity, pre-existence of Christ, immortal souls, a literal hell of fire, original sin ) Christian Thomasius ( 1704 ), Arthur Ashley Sykes ( 1737 ), Nathaniel Lardner ( 1742 ), Dr. Richard Mead ( 1755 ), Hugh Farmer ( at least in the account of Christ's temptation ; 1761 ), William Ashdowne ( 1791 ), John Simpson ( 1804 ) and John Epps ( 1842 )

For example John Locke held that some knowledge ( e. g. knowledge of God's existence ) could be arrived at through intuition and reasoning alone.

In response to the early-to-mid-17th century " continental rationalism " John Locke ( 1632 – 1704 ) proposed in An Essay Concerning Human Understanding ( 1689 ) a very influential view wherein the only knowledge humans can have is a posteriori, i. e., based upon experience.

Bombieri is also known for his pro bono service on behalf of the mathematics profession, e. g. for serving on external review boards and for peer-reviewing extraordinarily complicated manuscripts ( like the papers of John Nash on embedding Riemannian manifolds and of Per Enflo on the invariant subspace problem ).

The government became ineffective because of large scale internal conflicts ( e. g. Lubomirski's Rokosz against John II Casimir and rebellious confederations ), corrupted legislative processes and manipulation by foreign interests.

One well-known qualitative technique employed in I – O psychology is John Flanagan's Critical Incident Technique, which requires " qualified observers " ( e. g., pilots in studies of aviation, construction workers in studies of construction projects ) to describe a work situation that resulted in a good or bad outcome.

Around this time Major – who in an unfortunate phrase denounced the Labour Leader John Smith as " Monsieur Oui, the poodle of Brussels " – tried to demand an increase in the Qualified Majority needed for voting in the newly-enlarged European Union ( i. e. making it easier for Britain, in alliance with other countries, to block federalist measures ).

Private Eye parodied Sue Townsend's The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole, age 13¾ to write The Secret Diary of John Major, age 47¾, in which Major was portrayed as a naive nincompoop ( e. g. keeping lists of his enemies in a Rymans Notebook called his " Bastards Book ") and featuring " my wife Norman " and " Mr Dr Mawhinney " as recurring characters.

However, although both the gospels and Josephus refer to Herod Antipas killing John the Baptist, they differ on the details and motives, e. g. whether this act was a consequence of the marriage of Herod Antipas and Herodias ( as indicated in Matthew 14: 4, Mark 6: 18 ), or a pre-emptive measure by Herod which possibly took place before the marriage to quell a possible uprising based on the remarks of John, as Josephus suggests in Antiquities 18. 5. 2.

Scholars such as Claudia Setzer have noted the differences between the rationale for the death of John the Baptist presented by Josephus, and the theological variations ( e. g. whether immersion in water can result in the forgiveness of sins, etc.

John Painter states that the difference in the context for the Jewish Wars and the Antiquities may also account for some of the differences in tone between them, e. g. when writing of Ananus in a positive tone in the Jewish Wars the context was Ananus ' prudence in avoiding a war and hence Josephus considered that a positive aspect.

For advocates of the theory that justice is part of natural law ( e. g., John Locke ), it involves the system of consequences that naturally derives from any action or choice.
