50. Book Genres in the Religions of Scripture
In the history of the formation of genres of confessional literature between the individual religions of Scripture, there are common patterns. There is a similarity, firstly, in the composition of genres and, secondly, in the relative chronology of the addition of individual genres in their system. However, this is a similarity, not a coincidence.
The main directions in which the genre development of confessional literature proceeded are as follows.
A record of the teaching originally distributed by word of mouth. It's not really a genre change.
The addition of the religious canon; the result is a list of canonical books and works.
The addition of the second most important (after Scripture) opus of highly authoritative texts that fill in the meaningful gaps in Scripture and provide a detailed commentary on it. These works, like the Scriptures, are attributed a sacred character.
The development of theology, or theology.
On the basis of dogmatic theology, the church hierarchy develops a summary of the dogma - a creed and a catechism.
A special genre subsystem is formed by texts used in worship. These are various liturgical books and collections of prayers.
The mystical principle, which lives to some extent in various religions, is associated with a special, most whimsical and poetic layer of confessional literature - mystical and esoteric texts.
The sermon is initially present in the religious communication of people, before any written fixations of religious content. The introduction of people to the Revelation of God sent to people through a prophet begins with a sermon.
All religions of Scripture come to the need for a certain interpretation, explanation of the sacred text - due to their inherent increased attention to the authoritative word and the desire to retain its original meaning. Elements of commenting on the sacred text, sometimes appearing already in Scripture, over time become the main content of works of a special genre - interpretations.
In Judaism and Islam, a set of fundamental legal norms is already formulated in Scripture. In the future, as the legal needs of societies grow, this initial connection between dogma and law will become the basis for the formation of special church-secular jurisdiction and the corresponding confessional genres and texts.
In cultures based on the religion of Scripture, around the "core", the fundamental texts of the dogma, a diverse and extensive literature of a transitional or mixed, confessional-secular character is formed.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven
09.05.2024
Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

Energy from space for Starship
08.05.2024
Producing solar energy in space is becoming more feasible with the advent of new technologies and the development of space programs. The head of the startup Virtus Solis shared his vision of using SpaceX's Starship to create orbital power plants capable of powering the Earth. Startup Virtus Solis has unveiled an ambitious project to create orbital power plants using SpaceX's Starship. This idea could significantly change the field of solar energy production, making it more accessible and cheaper. The core of the startup's plan is to reduce the cost of launching satellites into space using Starship. This technological breakthrough is expected to make solar energy production in space more competitive with traditional energy sources. Virtual Solis plans to build large photovoltaic panels in orbit, using Starship to deliver the necessary equipment. However, one of the key challenges ... >>
| Random news from the Archive CC3200 - Cortex-M4 microcontroller with built-in WiFi
09.08.2015
The new CC3200 system-on-a-chip from Texas Instruments includes a fully functional WiFi core and a powerful 4 MHz Cortex-M80 microcontroller and a wide range of familiar peripherals. The chip allows you to create complete devices of the Internet of things, using a WiFi network to access the Internet and a variety of wired interfaces to communicate with the outside world.
All resources of the built-in microcontroller are available for the user application - 4-channel 12-bit ADC, 4x16-bit timers, UART, SPI, I2C and SD/MMC interfaces. The multimedia capabilities of the chip include a serial interface for I2S audio transmission and a parallel interface for connecting a video camera. To achieve high data processing speed, the chip has a direct memory access controller (32-channel DMA) and a hardware accelerator for protecting transmitted information - an AES-256 encryption unit.
Applications for CC3200:
Smart home and intelligent building;
Security and access control systems;
Industrial telemetry and wireless sensors;
Wireless transmission of sound and video;
Intelligent power supply networks (SmartGrid);
Access to the Internet and cloud services for any embedded device.
The CC3200 Wi-Fi subsystem includes a separate ARM core that performs all wireless data transfer tasks in a transparent mode for the user and does not require the resources of the Cortex-M4 microcontroller, which is completely at the disposal of the developer. From this point of view, the CC3200 can be viewed as a CC3100 chip to which an external microcontroller with a Cortex-M4 core was simply added. The CC3200 WiFi radio operates in the 802.11 b/g/n standard and can act as both a base station ("distribute the Internet") and act as a client, connecting to any regular WiFi router. The air speed is up to 72 Mbps, while the real data transfer rate reaches 12 Mbps in TCP connection mode.
The CC3200 differs from other similar solutions by supporting a larger set of secure WiFi network connection modes and provides a reliable secure connection based on TLS/SSL protocols.
The undoubted advantage of the CC3200 is the ecosystem created by Texas Instruments, which includes Wi-Fi and TCP / IP protocol stacks built into the chip, inexpensive debugging tools, sample programs for typical WiFi tasks, and open development of finished WiFi devices for which a complete schematic, list of elements, PCB layout and source code of the executable program.
