Again, Henley's attitude of defiance which colors his ideal of self-mastery is far from characteristic of a Stoic thinker like Marcus Aurelius, whose gentle acquiescence is almost Christian, comparable to the patience expressed in Milton's sonnet on his own blindness.

The three volumes brought to the fore a characteristic of Trevelyan's prose which remained conspicuous through his later works -- a genius for describing military action with clarity and with authority.

Since the writer had not noticed this characteristic in married students scattered throughout the various sections previous to this experiment, nor, as a matter of fact, in those who were continuing in `` single sections '', he can only conclude that there must have been something `` contagious '' within the specific group which caused this to occur.

It is no coincidence that the hebephrenic patient, the most severely dedifferentiated of all schizophrenic patients, shows, as one of his characteristic symptoms, laughter -- laughter which now makes one feel scorned or hated, which now makes one feel like weeping, or which now gives one a glimpse of the bleak and empty expanse of man's despair ; ;

Recently, for example, a paranoid woman's large-scale philosophizing, in the session, about the intrusive curiosity which has become, in her opinion, a deplorable characteristic of mid-twentieth-century human culture, developed itself, before the end of the session, into a suspicion that I was surreptitiously peeking at her partially exposed breast, as indeed I was.

In a society dominated by middle-class values and working in an institution which transmits and strengthens these social values, it is clear that the educational profession must work for the values which are characteristic of the society.

Therefore employment and education in all the schools in a metropolitan area are related in different ways from those which are characteristic of the comprehensive high school described in my first report.

The subfamily can be easily recognized by its characteristic smell ( the smell of garlic and onions, singular enough to be called " garlic odour "), by the very soft, fleshy leaves and the umbel-like inflorescence at the end of a stem ( scape ), which has small to medium flowers with a superior ovary.

Several other oxidation states are known, which range from + 2 to + 7 and can be identified by their characteristic optical absorption spectra.

As such Anglicanism was, from the outset, a movement with an explicitly episcopal polity, a characteristic which has been vital in maintaining the unity of the Communion by conveying the episcopate's role in manifesting visible catholicity and ecumenism.

Incantations by mystic names were characteristic of the hybrid Gnosticism planted in Spain and southern Gaul at the end of the fourth century and at the beginning of the fifth, which Jerome connects with Basilides, and which ( according to his Epist., lxxv.

His industry in every department was great, and though we find in his system many gaps which are characteristic of scholastic philosophy, his protracted study of Aristotle gave him a great power of systematic thought and exposition.

Unlike his translation of the Pastoral Care, Alfred here deals very freely with his original and though the late Dr. G. Schepss showed that many of the additions to the text are to be traced not to Alfred himself, but to the glosses and commentaries which he used, still there is much in the work which is solely Alfred's and highly characteristic of his style.

Such forms as whom, them, and her derive rather from the old Germanic dative forms, of which the-m and-r endings are characteristic.

One characteristic of the city is its painted gables, for which Aarau is sometimes called the " City of beautiful Gables ".

The northern and western sides consist of stony but fertile plains, which are well cultivated and produce luxuriant crops of grain, with some cotton, vines, almonds, olives and figs, but the most characteristic crop of Aegina today ( 2000s ) is pistachio.

It is a number without which the equation cannot be solved correctly.

Let N be a positive integer and let V be the space of all N times continuously differentiable functions F on the real line which satisfy the differential equation Af where Af are some fixed constants.

Thomas also presents a simple equation for deriving an index of persistence, which weights not only the number of stems ( ' roots ' ) per meaning, but their relative frequency.

This is the principle which we will invoke in every case to set up a functional equation.

Three of the four persons present, all foreign students in Tokyo, had been playing a game of judging popular Japanese foods by the In and Out system, an equation in which Zen philosophy was used as the modifier.

The equation on the left is the Bessel equation which has the general solution

Fermat always started with an algebraic equation and then described the geometric curve which satisfied it, while Descartes starts with geometric curves and produces their equations as one of several properties of the curves.

Therefore the ion speed can be computed with the following equation, which relates kinetic energy to energy gain due to the electric field.

There are two parts to Einstein's theory: the first part consists in the formulation of a diffusion equation for Brownian particles, in which the diffusion coefficient is related to the mean squared displacement of a Brownian particle, while the second part consists in relating the diffusion coefficient to measurable physical quantities.

where A < sub > α </ sub > and B < sub > α </ sub > are any two solutions of Bessel's equation, and C < sub > α </ sub > is a constant independent of x ( which depends on α and on the particular Bessel functions considered ).

It can be symbolically depicted through a chemical equation, which usually involves atoms as subjects.

The effect on cosmology of the dark energy that these models describe is given by the dark energy's equation of state, which varies depending upon the theory.

For example, most ab initio calculations make the Born – Oppenheimer approximation, which greatly simplifies the underlying Schrödinger equation by assuming that the nuclei remain in place during the calculation.

The total energy is determined by approximate solutions of the time-dependent Schrödinger equation, usually with no relativistic terms included, and by making use of the Born – Oppenheimer approximation, which allows for the separation of electronic and nuclear motions, thereby simplifying the Schrödinger equation.
