Prudlo.The nature of mendicancy as it developed among various religious orders during the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries is the subject of considerable debate. In spite of this, little in the way of a comprehensive review of the phenomenon as a whole has been undertaken. What has been done has either been order-specific (with an emphasis on the Friars Minor) or has focused on points of special conflict regarding the mendicant ideal (University debates, Spiritual Franciscans). Little work exists on the roots of mendicancy, or on the creative ways in which mendicancy was understood (and deprecated) in various quarters. Few studies try to bring together both the theory and practice of religious mendicancy. The effect that events had in molding and changing the mendicant ideal is also often neglected, as are the ways in which it was independently and creatively appropriated by individuals and groups. Needless to say, all of this is strange for a movement that most are content to label “Mendicant.” Perhaps it may even be the case that “mendicancy” is not useful as a descriptive concept. The purpose and intention of this handbook is to offer an analysis of the term and to present an up-to-date and comprehensive introduction to the phenomenon of religious mendicancy in the central and later middle ages. It provides a contextualized guide that will introduce the central issues in contemporary scholarship regarding the mendicant orders. This project approaches the controversies from a multitude of angles and unites in one volume the insights of different disciplines such as social and intellectual history, literary analysis, and theology. The present work is divided into three main sections, I) The origins and foundations of medieval mendicancy, II) The development and articulation of mendicant ideals, III) The reception and appropriation of mendicancy in the middle ages. The chapters herein serve as a solid point of departure for advanced students and scholars.Brill's companions to the Christian tradition ;v. 24.FriarsEuropeHistoryTo 1500Church historyMiddle Ages, 600-1500Electronic books.FriarsHistoryChurch history271/.060940902Prudlo Donald1976-956098MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910456686903321The origin, development, and refinement of medieval religious mendicancies2164299UNINA05298nam 2200685 450 991078816860332120220701192145.01-78355-208-5(CKB)2670000000601167(EBL)1987846(SSID)ssj0001494642(PQKBManifestationID)11909560(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001494642(PQKBWorkID)11449434(PQKB)11310054(Au-PeEL)EBL1987846(CaPaEBR)ebr11032371(CaONFJC)MIL750734(OCoLC)905308486(CaSebORM)9781783552078(MiAaPQ)EBC1987846(PPN)228050111(EXLCZ)99267000000060116720150330h20152015 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrMastering R for quantitative finance use R to optimize your trading strategy and build up your own risk management system /Edina Berlinger [and seventeen others]1st editionBirmingham, England :Packt Publishing,2015.©20151 online resource (362 p.)Community Experience DistilledDescription based upon print version of record.1-78355-207-7 1-336-19448-0 Includes bibliographical references at the end of each chapters and index.Cover; Copyright; Credits; About the Authors; About the Reviewers; www.PacktPub.com; Table of Contents; Preface; Chapter 1: Time Series Analysis; Multivariate time series analysis; Cointegration; Vector autoregressive models; VAR implementation example; Cointegrated VAR and VECM; Volatility modeling; GARCH modeling with the rugarch package; The standard GARCH model; Exponential GARCH model (EGARCH); Threshold GARCH model (TGARCH); Simulation and forecasting; Summary; References and reading list; Chapter 2: Factor Models; Arbitrage pricing theory; Implementation of APTFama-French three-factor modelModeling in R; Data selection; Estimation of APT with principal component analysis; Estimation of the Fama-French model; Summary; References; Chapter 3: Forecasting Volume; Motivation; The intensity of trading; The volume forecasting model; Implementation in R; The data; Loading the data; The seasonal component; AR(1) estimation and forecasting; SETAR estimation and forecasting; Interpreting the results; Summary; References; Chapter 4: Big Data - Advanced Analytics; Getting data from open sources; Introduction to big data analysis in RK-means clustering on big dataLoading big matrices; Big data K-means clustering analysis; Big data linear regression analysis; Loading big data; Fitting a linear regression model on large datasets; Summary; References; Chapter 5: FX Derivatives; Terminology and notations; Currency options; Exchange options; Two-dimensional Wiener processes; The Margrabe formula; Application in R; Quanto options; Pricing formula for call quanto; Pricing a call quanto in R; Summary; References; Chapter 6: Interest Rate Derivatives and Models; The Black model; Pricing a cap with Black's model; The Vasicek modelThe Cox-Ingersoll-Ross modelParameter estimation of interest rate models; Using the SMFI5 package; Summary; References; Chapter 7: Exotic Options; A general pricing approach; The role of dynamic hedging; How R could help a lot; A glance beyond vanillas; Greeks - the link back to the vanilla world; Pricing the Double-no-touch option; Another way to price the Double-no-touch option; The life of a Double-no-touch option - a simulation; Exotic options embedded in structured products; Summary; References; Chapter 8: Optimal Hedging; Hedging of derivatives; Market risk of derivativesStatic delta hedgeDynamic delta hedge; Comparing the performance of delta hedging; Hedging in the presence of transaction costs; Optimization of the hedge; Optimal hedging in the case of absolute transaction costs; Optimal hedging in the case of relative transaction costs; Further extensions; Summary; References; Chapter 9: Fundamental Analysis; The Basics of fundamental analysis; Collecting data; Revealing connections; Including multiple variables; Separating investment targets; Setting classification rules; Backtesting; Industry-specific investment; Summary; ReferencesChapter 10: Technical Analysis, Neural Networks, and Logoptimal PortfoliosThis book is intended for those who want to learn how to use R's capabilities to build models in quantitative finance at a more advanced level.
