Abstract: The aim of the following essay is to provide a more precise analytical insight into the development of artistic mastery and artistic identity. The professional biography of a young sculptor, told by herself, serves as the qualitative data basis. The interpretation method applied here is a variant of the so-called ‘reconstructive hermeneutics’ developed in a range of own qualitative studies. Theoretical background is Michael Polanyi’s phenomenological knowledge theory. The interpretation discovers interesting stages of the protagonist’s artistic development: hidden influences from childhood and youth, ambivalent experiences during the various studies, a surprising ‘coming out’ as an artist, a sort of ‘inauguration’ and finally a deep trust in her own artistry. The surprising result is not only a profound insight into the complex process of artistic creativity and the paradoxical becoming process of artistic identity, but also the discovery of clear limits of Polanyi’s knowledge model as it ignores the undeniable influence of biographical experience on the tacit knowing of gaining artistic mastery.

Abstract: Jewish practices were reconstructed after the post-Babylonian exile period, helping to build a legalistic interpretation of their laws. From then on, women began to be seen with contempt, contributing to circumcision being seen as a ritual of male predominance over women. The Jewish patriarchal system was inserted women among minorities. The woman began to be discriminated against during the period of her menstrual cycle (pure and impure), because she was not circumcised or for the simple fact of having been born a woman. It is in this context that Christianity arises, based on the discourse of equality, promoted by the baptism ritual announced by John. This rite represents the symmetry idealized by Paul, in which all are equal in Christ Jesus (Gal 3, 28). For the construction and elaboration of this research, the bibliographic research should be used as a method of studies, developed based on published materials such as magazines, books, dissertations and Theses, which will help us in the interpretation of the place of the feminine in the period of the original Christianity and in Paulo.

Abstract: Since ancient China, the Grand Canal has become the backbone of the nation, exerting profound and far reaching influence on Chinese communication and transportation system. Studies concerning the Grand Canal have increased greatly since it entered into the World Heritage List in 2014. However, most researches are focused upon practical issues, such as repairing or restoring relative river canals, scenery spots and museums. Under the more complex and serious conditions of world ecosystem and cultural conflicts, more research work is needed to enhance the theoretical understanding for the Grand Canal and promote the Grand Canal Cultural Heritage globally, aiming to build a community of shared future for mankind. With the guidance of "5Cs" of Operational Guidelines for the Implementation of the World Heritage Convention, this paper discusses better conservation and communication strategies for the Grand Canal by highlighting its outstanding universal value, improving its credibility with scientific conservation of the authenticity and integrity of the Grand Canal, focusing on capacity-building for better convention and application of the cultural heritage resources and encouraging social communities to work together for the global communication of the Grand Canal. Meanwhile, a multi-modal and multilingual database for the historical and cultural resources of the Grand Canal will be established by means of big data, digital technology and all-media technology. It is hoped to provide meaningful reference for the more rational and scientific conservation and communication of the Grand Canal while China is planning to build the National Grand Canal Cultural Park.
