About Artistic interpretation other types of interpretationInterpretation disambiguation Interpretation An interpretation in philosophy of art , is an explanation of the meaning of some work of art . An interpretation expresses an understanding of a work of art, a poem, performance, or piece of literature. Aims of interpretation One or many There are many different theories of interpretation. On the one hand, there are an infinite number of interpretations for any given piece of art, any one of which may be considered valid. Fact date May 2009 However, it may also be claimed that there really is only one valid interpretation for any given piece of art. The aesthetic theory that people approach art with different aims is called pluralism . People s interpretations of art may be evaluated relative to these aims. The aim of some of these interpretations is such that they may be said to be true or false and the aim of others do not lend themselves to designating truth or falsity to art. Intended interpretation Among those theories which permit for interpretations being named as valid or invalid, are ones which attempt to identify what the artist is trying to accomplish and interpret the art in terms of whether or not the artist has succeeded. In this view there is a single correct interpretation consistent with the artists intention for any given art work.

Noref date November 2009 In mathematical logic , a Herbrand interpretation is an Interpretation logic interpretation in which all Logical constant constant s and function symbols are assigned very simple meanings. Specifically, every constant is interpreted as itself, and every function symbol is interpreted as the function mathematics function that applies it. The interpretation also defines predicate symbols as denoting a subset of the relevant Herbrand base , effectively specifying which ground atom s are true in the interpretation. This allows the symbols in a set of clauses to be interpreted in a purely syntax syntactic way, separated from any real instantiation. The importance of Herbrand interpretations is that, if any interpretation satisfiable satisfies a given set of clauses S then there is a Herbrand interpretation that satisfies them. Moreover, Herbrand s theorem states that if S is unsatisfiable then there is a finite unsatisfiable set of ground instances from the Herbrand universe defined by S . Since this set is finite, its unsatisfiability can be verified in finite time. However there may be an infinite number of such sets to check. It is named after Jacques Herbrand .

The interpretation of tongues is noted in 1 Corinthians 12 10 as one of nine manifestation spiritual gift gifts of the Holy Spirit . This gift is a supernatural enablement for one to interpret unknown glossolalia tongues languages when they are spoken among Christian believers. The gift of interpretation of tongues is that which causes tongues to be beneficial for the edification of the Christian Church church . According to 1 Corinthians 14 26, it is one of the gifts that the Apostle Paul of Tarsus Paul says is necessary for the strengthening of the church. 1 Corinthians 14 13 teaches that if a person is already functioning in the gift of tongues, he should pray that he may also interpret tongues. According to 1 Corinthians 14, in the corporate gathering, if an individual speaks out in tongues, the church should prayerfully and expectantly wait for an interpretation. If there is no interpretation to the first utterance, and yet a second or even a third utterance is given in tongues without an interpretation, at that point, with the obvious absence of an interpreter, those who speak in tongues should do so quietly. Evidently, either someone is not being responsive in giving the interpretation, or it is not God s intention to manifest a message through tongues and interpretation at that time.

An interpretation centre can be a viable solution for effective communication of heritage information in municipalities and rural areas where resources may not exist to establish a traditional, full scale museum , and where heritage can be an important factor for tourism development. Unlike traditional museums, interpretation centres do not usually aim to collect, conserve and study objects they are specialized institutions for communicating the significance and meaning of heritage.

Quantum mechanics cTopic Interpretation of quantum mechanics Interpretations The stochastic interpretation is an interpretation of quantum mechanics . The modern application of stochastics to quantum mechanics involves the assumption of spacetime stochasticity , the idea that the small scale structure of spacetime is undergoing both metric and topological fluctuations John Archibald Wheeler s quantum foam , and that the averaged result of these fluctuations recreates a more conventional looking metric at larger scales that can be described using classical physics, along with an element of nonlocality that can be described using quantum mechanics. A stochastic interpretation of quantum mechanics due to persistent vacuum fluctuations is suggested by Roumen Tsekov. The main idea is that vacuum or spacetime fluctuations are the reason for quantum mechanics and not a result of it how it is usually considered.

Cleanup date June 2009 Thematic Interpretation is the practice of verbal and non verbal communication , using illustrated and non illustrated techniques, used by interpretive naturalists, Natural and cultural interpretive specialists, tour guide s and others to present complex and sometimes dry subject matter in an interesting and engaging way. The technique can involve using analogy analogies and stories that are relevant to the audience avoiding unnecessary details and presenting information on subjects with enthusiasm and appropriate humor. Several learning paradigms are used about interpretation models such as E.R.O.T. Enjoyable, Relevant, Organized, Thematic , and organizing talks around themes rather than topics. There is strong parallel between the field of interpretation as founded by Freeman Tilden and Constructivism learning theory constructivist educational theory, both cognitive Jean Piaget Piaget and social Lev Semenovich Vygotsky Vygotsky . The technique was popularized in the book Environmental Interpretation 1992 by Dr. Sam H. Ham University of Idaho and has become standard reading for many students of interpretive tour guiding. Prior to Dr. Ham s book, two additional contributors to the field of Interpretation are its founder, Freeman Tilden and his seminal book, Interpreting Our Heritage 1957 and Dr. Grant W. Sharpe University of Washington and his important foundation work, Interpreting the Environment . Thematic Interpretation TI also refers to an event in some high school competitive speech leagues such as the National Christian Forensics and Communications Association .

Unreferenced date December 2009 Oral Interpretation is a dramatic art, also commonly called interpretive reading and dramatic reading , though these terms are more conservative and restrictive. In certain applications, oral interpretation is also a theatre art as in reader s theatre, in which a work of literature is performed with manuscripts in hand or, more traditionally, using stools and music stands and especially chamber theatre, which dispenses with manuscripts and uses what may be described as essentialist costuming and stage lighting, and suggestive scenery. The term is succinctly defined by Paul Campbel l The Speaking and Speakers of Literature Dickinson, 1967 as the oralization of literature or more eloquently, if less intelligibly, by Charlotte Lee and Timothy Gura Oral Interpretation Houghton Mifflin, 1997 as the art of communicating to an audience a work of literary art in its intellectual, emotional, and aesthetic entirety . Historically essential to Charlotte Lee s definition of oral interpretation is the fact the performer is reading from a manuscript . This perspective, once the majority view, has long since become the minority opinion on the question so that whether one is or is not reading from a manuscript, the art retains the same name.

Bible related In a biblical context, allegorical interpretation is an approach assuming that the authors of a text e.g., the Bible intended something other than what is literally expressed. The method has its origins in both Greek thought who tried to avoid the literal interpretations of ancient Greek myths and in the Rabbinic literature rabbinical schools of the Land of Israel . Most notably of pre Christian authors Philo of Alexandria expressly refers to its use by his predecessors and uses it himself to discover indications of different doctrines of philosophy in the stories of the Pentateuch. The traces of allegorical and Typology theology typological interpretation can be found later in the New Testament but are further developed in the Epistle of Barnabas and especially by Origen . In the Middle Ages , typology was the dominant Christian allegorical interpretation, which developed sets of correspondences between the Old and New Testaments, believing that the events described in the Hebrew Bible or Old Testament had occurred in order to pre figure events in the life of Christ in the New there were other classes of allegory in the Middle Ages .

Self interpretation Often teachers of religion preachers, monks, rabbis make a claim that their religions are not religions at all &mdash rather are Way of Life, a Reality, or The Truth. From the point of view of another religion s aherents, claims like this are often seen to be diametrically opposed to their own teaching and belief. A Taoist who says for example that Tao is not a religion , rather is a way of life may find a very different view from a Christian minister, or a Hindu priest. The typical claim then, is Despite what another religion may claim, our truth is the real truth, or closer to the real truth. namely God . Hence a claim, by one religion s adherents that its truth is greater than the other. The irony is obvious While each tradition aspires to appear as close to an essential truth &mdash one which transcends material concerns and perceptual appearances, each will have adherents who maintain very localized and material concerns for its own traditional symbols and language. Logically then, it is only by these localized views that one religion s adherents may see others as inferior.
