Hypostasis (philosophy And Religion)
Hypostasis (Greek: ὑπόστασις, ''hypóstasis'') is the underlying state or underlying substance and is the fundamental reality that supports all else. In Neoplatonism the hypostasis of the soul, the intellect (''nous'') and "the one" was addressed by Plotinus. In Christian theology, the Holy Trinity consists of three hypostases: Hypostasis of the Father, Hypostasis of the Son, and Hypostasis of the Holy Spirit. Ancient Greek philosophy Pseudo-Aristotle used hypostasis in the sense of material substance. Neoplatonists argue that beneath the surface phenomena that present themselves to our senses are three higher spiritual principles, or hypostases, each one more sublime than the preceding. For Plotinus, these are the Soul, the Intellect, and the One.''Neoplatonism (Ancient Philosophies)'' by Pauliina Remes (2008), University of California Press , pp. 48–52. Christian theology The term hypostasis has a particular significance in Christian theology, particularly in Ch ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Hypostatic Union
''Hypostatic union'' (from the Greek: ''hypóstasis'', "sediment, foundation, substance, subsistence") is a technical term in Christian theology employed in mainstream Christology to describe the union of Christ's humanity and divinity in one hypostasis, or individual existence. The most basic explanation for the hypostatic union is Jesus Christ being both fully God and fully man. He is both perfectly divine and perfectly human, having two complete and distinct natures at once. The Athanasian Creed recognized this doctrine and affirmed its importance, stating that "He is God from the essence of the Father, begotten before time; and he is human from the essence of his mother, born in time; completely God, completely human, with a rational soul and human flesh; equal to the Father as regards divinity, less than the Father as regards humanity. Although he is God and human, yet Christ is not two, but one. He is one, however, not by his divinity being turned into flesh, but by God' ...

Hypostatic Model Of Personality
The hypostatic model of personality is a view asserting that humans present themselves in many different aspects or hypostases, depending on the internal and external realities they relate to, including different approaches to the study of personality. It is both a dimensional model and an aspect theory, in the sense of the concept of multiplicity. The model falls into the category of complex, biopsychosocial approaches to personality. The term hypostasis can cover a wide range of personality-related entities usually known as type, stage, trait, system, approach.Tapu 2001, p. 15 The history of the concept can be traced back to Peirce's hypostatic abstraction, or personification of traits. Different authors have described various ''dimensions of the self'' (or ''selves''), personality dimensions and subpersonalities.Rowan 1990, p. 8 Contemporary studies link different aspects of personality to specific biological, social, and environmental factors. The work on subpersonalities w ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Hypostasis (linguistics)
In linguistics, a hypostasis (from the Greek word ὑπόστασις meaning ''foundation'', ''base'' or ''that which stands behind'') is a relationship between a name and a known quantity, as a cultural personification (i.e. objectification with personality) of an entity or quality. It often connotes the personification of typically elemental powers, such as wind and fire, or human life, fertility, and death. In descriptive linguistics, the term was first introduced by Leonard Bloomfield to account for uses of synsemantic words as autosemantic in sentences such as ''I'm tired of your ifs and buts''. In this sense, the usage meaning of the word is referred to as a whole. The term ''hypostasis'' is considered to be scientifically and culturally neutral, for the purpose of describing name-to-term relationships that, within religion and theology might be termed a "deification", or otherwise by the more pejorative "idolatry Idolatry is the worship of a cult image or "idol" a ...

Hypostasis (literature)
Hypostasis (from Greek ''hypo-'' "below" + ''stasis'' "standing") is the essence of metafiction, a rare, literary moment when characters in fiction become aware of their own fictional nature. Debut The debut of hypostasis in literature occurs in ''Don Quixote'', Part 2, Chapter 2, when Sancho announces to Don Quixote that a book has been written about their adventures. Thus, these literary characters become aware that they are literary characters. This scene so impressed Jorge Luis Borges that he devoted one of his most famous essays to it: ''Partial Enchantments in the Quixote.'''" Modern use In Disney's 1977 animated movie, ''The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh'', Tigger bounces himself to the top of a tree and is then afraid to climb down. This image of Tigger in the treetop is revealed to the viewer to be merely an illustration in a book when Sebastian Cabot, the movie's narrator, says, "Well Tigger, your bouncing really got you into trouble this time."

Livor Mortis
Livor mortis (Latin: ''līvor'' – "bluish color, bruise", ''mortis'' – "of death"), postmortem lividity (Latin: ''postmortem'' – "after death", ''lividity'' – "black and blue"), hypostasis (Greek: ὑπό, ''hypo'', meaning "under, beneath"; στάσις, ''stasis'', meaning "a standing") or suggillation, is the second stage of death and one of the signs of death. It is a settling of the blood in the lower, or dependent, portion of the body postmortem, causing a purplish red discoloration of the skin. When the heart stops functioning and is no longer agitating the blood, heavy red blood cells sink through the serum by action of gravity. The blood travels faster in warmer conditions and slower in colder conditions. Livor mortis starts in 20–30 minutes, but is usually not observable by the human eye until two hours after death. The size of the patches increases in the next three to six hours, with maximum lividity occurring between eight and twelve hours after death. T ...

Hypostatic Abstraction
Hypostatic abstraction in mathematical logic, also known as hypostasis or subjectal abstraction, is a formal operation that transforms a predicate Predicate or predication may refer to: * Predicate (grammar), in linguistics * Predication (philosophy) * several closely related uses in mathematics and formal logic: **Predicate (mathematical logic) **Propositional function **Finitary relation, o ... into a Relation (philosophy), relation; for example "Honey ''is'' sweet" is transformed into "Honey ''has'' sweetness". The relation is created between the original subject and a new term that represents the Property (philosophy), property expressed by the original predicate. Description Technical definition Hypostasis changes a propositional formula of the form ''X is Y'' to another one of the form ''X has the property of being Y'' or ''X has Y-ness''. The logical functioning of the second object ''Y-ness'' consists solely in the truth-values of those propositions that have the c ...

Hypostasis Of The Archons
The ''Hypostasis of the Archons'' or ''The Reality of the Rulers'' is an exegesis on the ''Book of Genesis'' 1–6 and expresses Gnostic mythology of the divine creators of the cosmos and humanity. Text's origin and content The text was found among those included in the Nag Hammadi library, in CG II, in 1945. It is tentatively dated in the third century CE and is thought to originate from a transitional period in Gnosticism when it was converting from a purely mythological state into a philosophical phase. The beginning and conclusion to the document are Christian Gnostic, but the rest of the material is a mythological narrative regarding the origin and nature of the archontic powers peopling the heavens between Earth and the Ogdoad, and how the destiny of man is affected by these primeval happenings. The work is presented as a learned treatise in which a teacher addresses a topic suggested by the dedicatee of the work. The treatise begins with a fragment of cosmogony, which ...

Hypostatic Gene
A hypostatic gene is one whose phenotype is altered by the expression of an allele at a separate locus, in an epistasis event. Example: In labrador retrievers, the chocolate coat colour is a result of homozygosity for a gene that is epistatic to the "black vs. brown" gene. The alleles determining whether the dog is black or brown, are that of the ''hypostatic gene'' in this event. See also * Epistasis Epistasis is a phenomenon in genetics in which the effect of a gene mutation is dependent on the presence or absence of mutations in one or more other genes, respectively termed modifier genes. In other words, the effect of the mutation is dep ... * Bombay phenotype References Further reading {{cite book , last = Hartwell , first = Leland , author2=L. Hood , author3=M. Goldberg , author4=A.

Holding Current (electronics)
The holding current (hypostatic) for electrical, electromagnetic, and electronic devices is the minimum current which must pass through a circuit in order for it to remain in the 'ON' state. The term can be applied to a single switch or to an entire device. A simple example of holding current is in a Spark gap. In the most basic of circuits, if the current falls below the holding current even briefly, the circuit is turned 'OFF' (becomes blocked). However, complex circuits and devices may have different delays built-in between the time the current falls below this level and the time the device turns 'OFF'. Whether a device turns 'ON' when current is restored is a design issue. The current necessary to restore the circuit to the 'ON' state, called the "threshold current" (See threshold voltage), may be much greater than the holding current, or only very slightly more. Nevertheless, where the device is designed to turn back 'ON' upon restoration of the current and where the device ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Reification (fallacy)
Reification (also known as concretism, hypostatization, or the fallacy of misplaced concreteness) is a fallacy of ambiguity, when an abstraction (abstract belief or hypothetical construct) is treated as if it were a concrete real event or physical entity. In other words, it is the error of treating something that is not concrete, such as an idea, as a concrete thing. A common case of reification is the confusion of a model with reality: " the map is not the territory". Reification is part of normal usage of natural language (just like metonymy for instance), as well as of literature, where a reified abstraction is intended as a figure of speech, and actually understood as such. But the use of reification in logical reasoning or rhetoric is misleading and usually regarded as a fallacy. Etymology From Latin ''res'' ("thing") and -''fication'', a suffix related to ''facere'' ("to make"). Thus ''reification'' can be loosely translated as "thing-making"; the turning of something abstra ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
