		Wilfrid and Zoé resumed their close relationship and remained devoted to each other for the rest of their lives.
		Whatever may have been said about it, this agreement stood as a dangerous precedent since it marked the emergence of an increasingly unicultural and English-speaking Canada, a truncated vision of the country foreseen by the Fathers of Confederation.
		He committed the blunder of suspending the proceedings of the house from 19 May to 18 July in order to attend the coronation of King George V and the imperial conference in London, and he thereby enabled his opponents to consolidate their forces.

		Functionalism may be defined as the doctrine that to say that a word has a certain meaning or that a thought has a certain content is to say that the word or thought has a certain functional role in a system of some kind.
		Thus, a person may learn to report that he or she has a certain thought only when he or she does indeed have that thought.

	The Heroic Age: The Ripon Connection?
		Wilfrid was driven from Mercia and Wessex by the influence of Queen Osthryth of Merica, sister of King Ecgfrith, and the Queen of Wessex, who was the sister of Ecgfrith's queen, Irmenburgh.
		Wilfrid's role in the return of Frankish King Dagobert II from exile in Ireland to Austrasia has been suggested to be evidence of his Irish contacts, which could have involved Ráith Máelsigi.
		Wilfrid's support from Mercia (and Wessex) were secondary to the use they put him to in secular and ecclesiastical politics.

	The Heroic Age: The Ripon Connection? Willibrord, Wilfrid, and the Mission to Frisia
		Wilfrid was strongly opposed to the Irish influence in the church.
		Wilfrid was seeking the best route to Rome that avoided Frankish territory as much as possible and hoped for hospitality among the English missionaries, as they were required to provide.
		Wilfrid's role models were Frankish metropolitans such as 'Dalfinus'/Aunemundus and Agilberht, and Germanic lords, who both concentrated on furthering their own political power and wealth (Pelteret 166, 174-5).

	The Life of St Kyneburgha
		Wulfhere may well have considered it politic to appoint the Abbess of Dormundescastre as a 'client ruler' of the buffer territory of the Middle Angles, just as a decade earlier his father had installed Peada as sub-king of this area (25) and Merewahl as governor of the Westerna or Magonsaete on the Welsh Marches (26).
		The enshrinement of the saints may have coincided with the reconstruction of the monastery in stone c.
		One may deduce from this conglomeration of Anglo-Saxon and medieval references to her life that, apart from being revered as a saint, she must also have truly been a fascinating, courageous and probably formidable character to generate so much interest and speculation over a millennium after her death and even until this present day.

	Honore De Balzac - Seraphita (1835)
		Wilfrid had come to urge her to accept his undying devotion; but she reasoned with him as she had reasoned with Minna.
		Wilfrid was thirty-six: he was of middle height and well-proportioned, and he had thick fl hair and brown eyes, with strong features.
		Wilfrid and Minna in their vision understood some of the mysterious words of the being who on earth had appeared to them under the form which was intelligible to each—Seraphitus to one; Seraphita to the other.

		The officer accosted Wilfrid: "But you are not one of us!" He repeated it to the lady: "You see, the man is not one of us!" She assured him that she had seen the uniform when she dropped the feather, and wept protesting it.
		Wilfrid stated boldly that the cloak was taken by him from the Duchess of Graatli's at Como; that he had seen a tall Hussar officer slip it off his shoulders; that he had wanted a cloak, and had appropriated it.
		Wilfrid's embarrassment in standing before a lady in private soldier's uniform, enabled him with very peculiar dignity to declare that his present degradation, from the General's point of view, was a just punishment, and he did not crave to have it abated.

	Seraphita - Chapter II
		Wilfrid rose abruptly and walked to the window that she might not see the tears that rose to his eyes.
		Wilfrid had flung himself into a chair between the two tables and was contemplating with a species of intoxication this picture full of harmony, to which the clouds of smoke did no despite.
		Wilfrid was splendid to behold at this moment,--like Hamlet listening to the ghost of his father as it rises for him alone in the midst of the living.

		Wilfrid is a man, tested by passions; he would clasp you in his vigorous arms and make you feel a hand both broad and strong.
		Wilfrid, as he devoured the pages of the prophet, lived by his inner senses only; the pastor, looking up at times from his book, called Minna's attention to the absorption of their guest with an air that was half-serious, half-jesting.
		Wilfrid, on whom the reading of Swedenborg's first treatise, which he had rapidly gone through, had produced a powerful effect, was already in the corridor putting on his skees; Minna was ready in a few moments, and both left the old men far behind as they darted forward to the Swedish castle.

	Philosophy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Informally, a "philosophy" may refer to a general world view or to a specific ethic or belief.
		One attempt to overturn these doctrines was that of Jean-Jacques Rousseau, who responded to Hobbes by claiming that a human is by nature a kind of "noble savage", and that society and social contracts corrupt this nature.
		Relativists may claim that any statement can be counted as a philosophical statement, as there is no objective way to disqualify it of being so.

	Second sight - music with Wilfrid Mellers
		We aren't surprised when Tatyana agonizedly rejects Onegin's avowal that he had always 'really' loved her since, even if that were true, his patrician pride must have been stronger than his heart's truth.
		Indeed, this may be the key to much of Tchaikovsky's most representative music, which is balanced between the fairy-tale illusion of ballet and the deceptive reality of sometimes shabby rather than grand 'tragedies', here induced by the all-too-human folly of a dim-witted Lensky, an empty-headed Olga, or whomever.
		Compromise between reality and illusion is, of course, implicit in the two worlds of Russian folk lament and the giddy gaiety of Parisian valses and cotillons, and of Polish mazurkas and polonaises, congenial to genteel society, here brutally transplanted in industrial Leeds.

	Music matters. Gordon Rumson reads Wilfrid Mellers' book 'Singing in the Wilderness: Music and Ecology in the Twentieth ...
		Music is not mere titillation for the ears, nor excitement for the pelvis, though it may be those things.
		And so it is, that Wilfrid Mellers may also be the key to making sense of the current collapsing classical music world, declining ticket sales and fading interest in the 'immortal' masterpieces.
		Except, and this is the exception, if music does matter, if music is as serious a path to knowledge as philosophy, poetry, scholarship, mysticism or science, then we must maintain our collected wisdom and draw upon it.

	Wilfrid Sellars
		Although Wilfrid Sellars is best known for his his ground-breaking essay "Empiricism and the Philosophy of Mind" [EPM] and his critique of what he there called "the myth of the given", he was in fact a systematic philosopher par excellence.
		The concept of an occurrent thought is that of a causally-mediating logico-semantic role player, whose determinate empirical/ontological character, and thereby logical space for some form of "identity theory" is so far left open.
		Thus, there are many who would say that it is already reasonable to suppose that these thoughts are to be ‘identified’ with complex events in the cerebral cortex.

		The very smoke of these dwellings was hardly seen, half-hidden as they were beneath the snow, against the weight of which they were protected by long planks reaching from the roof and fastened at some distance to solid blocks on the ground, forming a covered way around each building.
		On a morning when the sun burst forth upon this landscape, lighting the fires of the ephemeral diamonds produced by crystallizations of the snow and ice, two beings crossed the fiord and flew along the base of the Falberg, rising thence from ledge to ledge toward the summit.
		Soft and slender as were his hands, ungloved to remove his companion's snowboots, they seemed possessed of a strength equal to that which the Creator gave to the diaphanous tentacles of the crab.
