It may also have brought about new ways of understanding God, the meaning of death, and the role of authority in religious and social life. Cholera induced a public health approach that stressed quarantine, and venereal diseases led to contact tracing. Western medicine, however, failed to cure the epidemics that resulted from imperial expansion into the Americas, Asia, Africa, and Europe.

Reddish tableware had a long tradition in the Levant and its evolution culminated around 150 B.C., in the region between Tarsos and Laodikeia, with the production of Eastern Sigillata A (ESA). More or less simultaneously, but independently, the manufacturing of Eastern Sigillata C (ESC) was initiated at Pergamon. Within a couple of decades the new range of tableware would establish itself in both regions of production, and other pottery production centres picked up the trend with, for instance, the production of Eastern Sigillata D (ESD) in SW Cyprus and the Late Hellenistic predecessor of Sagalassos red slip ware (SRSW) at Pisidian Sagalassos. No doubt, many more regional centres followed suit. The new tableware only gradually made its way, starting to replace other common Late Hellenistic types of fine ware. Only by the end of the Hellenistic period did sigillata become common on most Eastern tables. ESA was clearly in a league of its own, predominating through out the E Mediterranean and beyond. ESD was mainly restricted to Cyprus and the Levant, whereas ESC and Late Hellenistic SRSW remained of regional importance. More research is needed to evaluate the supra-regional demand for ESA in a social context, how this demand may have formed part of wider-ranging commercial activities of Levantine merchants in the E Mediterranean, how the geo-political shifts orchestrated by Rome may have influenced the exchange patterns, and how the other types of Eastern Sigillata and Late Hellenistic tablewares fit into this pattern and relate to prototypes in precious metal, For instance, the island emporion of Delos, handed over to Athens in 167 B.C. and especially favoured by the Romans after the destruction of Corinth in 146 B.C., may have been of crucial importance in establishing the distribution pattern of early ESA. Delos catered to the needs of Italy, which had grown powerful and rich in the 2nd c. B.C., by funnelling large numbers of slaves and a wide variety of luxury products, mainly from the Near East, to Rome. Levantine merchants contributed greatly to the success of Delos by controlling the supply mechanisms. As a result, ESA may have grown into a desirable surrogate for Eastern precious metal plate and thus acquired an esteemed position in the tableware market (cf. Cic, ad Att. 115 [VI.1] 13, dated 50 B.C., on vasa Rhosica )." }, { "paper": "2063962573", "venue": "141988568", "year": "2001", "title": "a new silk road", "label": [ "6303427" ], "author": [ "2683414063" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "the following testimony by john j maresca a vice president of unocal corporation was presented to a congressional committee on february 12 1998 the hearings were held before a subcommittee of the house committee on international relations that was concerned with asia and the pacific the subcommittee dealt extensively wih central asia oil and gas reserves and the shaping of u s policy it has not been our practice to publish documents given the size of mr we need to stick to our last we felt however that an exception had to be made in this case we think you will understand why the editors this article can also be found at the monthly review website where most recent articles are published in full click here to purchase a pdf version of this article at the monthly review website", "title_raw": "A New Silk Road", "abstract_raw": "The following testimony by John J.

In order to illustrate these points, Palestine, within the context of historical geographical research on modern tourism, is considered. Towards the end of the Ottoman period and, more especially, during the British Mandate (1917\u20131948), tourism in Palestine developed greatly, and the country, which had previously only attracted pilgrims drawn by religious factors, began to attract tourists who were drawn by new and varied attraction factors.

The result is this essay. Once I had embarked on such a potentially foolhardy project, the practical question remained: What meaningful generalizations about two centuries of American Christianity could one offer in a relatively short space such as that provided by Church History's \u201cPerspectives\u201d feature?

Similarly, paganism was either dying from the moment of its conception, as its constituent practices fell into abeyance, or it survives to this day.1 The self-understandings of these religions, developed in fractious dialogue with each other, thus yield incompatible narratives and inconsistent periodizations. Assuming rather than interrogating the ontological integrity of their taxonomies, historiography grounded in these perspectives can be erudite but it cannot explain anything.2 If we are now to forge histories of religious change in late antiquity that do more than count Christian conversions or pagan survivals, we must avoid conceptual categories derived from the failed apologetics and willfil misconstruals of pagan-Christian dialogue. We must also shun easy reliance on the distorted and misleading claims to novelty of Christian hagiography, a modern counterpart to the faith that late-antique ecclesiastical historians placed in Providence. We should have asked long ago whether the transfer of charisma from one individual to another did in fact constitute a change in the locus of the sacred. Insofar as that transfer did not require contemporaries to reconceptualize the holiness of individuals or the nature of divine immanence, the answer is no. Change in the religious mentality of late-antique Europe should instead be charted first at an epistemological level, one prior, as it were, to religious or doctrinal commitment. This essay adumbrates such an approach by juxtaposing and conjoining two famous problems: the surge in antiquarianism in the west in the early fifth century and the contest for supremacy between Rome and Constantinople. Scholars have tended to assume that Christians and pagans thought about the sacralization of landscape in very different ways: insofar as paganism consisted of rites bereft of theological significance, pagans (it is assumed) sacralized space through ritual" }, { "paper": "2017763066", "venue": "49405560", "year": "2001", "title": "public lives private secrets gender honor sexuality and illegitimacy in colonial spanish america and liberalism in the bedroom quarreling spouses in nineteenth century lima and shaping the discourse on space charity and its wards in nineteenth century san juan puerto rico review", "label": [ "531593650", "2778289769" ], "author": [ "2033572996" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Public Lives, Private Secrets: Gender, Honor, Sexuality, and Illegitimacy in Colonial Spanish America, and: Liberalism in the Bedroom: Quarreling Spouses in Nineteenth-Century Lima, and: Shaping the Discourse on Space: Charity and Its Wards in Nineteenth-Century San Juan, Puerto Rico (review)", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2334745690", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2001", "title": "heather shore artful dodgers youth and crime in early nineteenth century london royal historical society studies in history new series rochester n y boydell for the royal historical society 1999 pp xiii 193 55 00", "label": [ "74916050" ], "author": [ "2054711909" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Heather Shore.

Leigh Gibson. TSAJ 75. Tubingen: Mohr-Siebeck, 1999. Pp. x + 201. DM 128.00. The Bosporus Kingdom on the north coast of the Black Sea was home to an apparently substantial Jewish community, knowledge of which depends entirely on inscriptions. These have mainly been made accessible to English-speaking readers through the work of Irina Levinskaya, particularly The Book of Acts in Its Diaspora Setting (Grand Rapids: Eerdmans, 1996). Now Gibson has provided a new publication that puts them into a fuller context than has previously been possible. She concentrates on the inscriptions that involve the manumission of slaves in the prayer-house or with the Jewish community as guardian or (in some sense) beneficiary. She seeks to do this by exploring the background of manumission inscriptions written in Greek, as well as Jewish attitudes to manumission before moving on to look at the Bosporan inscriptions themselves. She argues convincingly that nothing particularly Jewish is in the underlying manumission process or its record in inscriptions: \"the Jewish manumissions of the Bosporus fit readily within the models and the possibilities demonstrated by a wide range of Greek manumission inscriptions\" (p. 11). Archaeological evidence shows that there was widespread hellenization in the area, and the presence of a Jewish community was presumably a result of that hellenization. Gibson believes that the practice of recording manumissions in inscriptions was in the interests of owners more than of slaves. The inscriptions were not motivated by affection, and they did not take the opportunity of depicting manumission as the reward for slaves' good behavior. Instead, the owners were willing to incur expense in order to promote their own social standing. Gibson argues that Jewish attitudes to slavery were not as liberal as has sometimes been claimed. She sees Philo as interpreting Jewish law on slavery in the light of GrecoRoman norms, and in a Jewish setting where biblical instructions about slaves were not widely observed. She sums up his attitude this way: \"Slaves were essential, but they should come from other nations, not from kinsmen\" (p. 75)-a view with which Aristotle would certainly have agreed. However, she makes the important point that Jews who were redeemed from slavery to Gentiles by their fellow-Jews would still be kept in some form of servitude. She treats rabbinic discussions of slavery as evidence for the aspects of slave-owning that were of concern to Jews. There is an interesting summary of the texts on Tabi, slave of Rabban Gamaliel and the only slave mentioned by name in the Mishnah. His story, even if not to be taken literally, illustrates that learning in the Torah did not necessarily lead to manumission. She detects an increasing concern with the ritual purification of slaves in later rabbinic writing, perhaps arising from a fear that slaves would manipulate procedures in order to secure their manumission against their owners' wishes. In chs. 5-6, manumissions from the Bosporus are discussed which took place in the context of apparent paganism or of the worship of the \"most high god. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2325391335", "venue": "2765079165", "year": "2001", "title": "the house of kadmos in mycenaean thebes reconsidered architecture chronology and context", "label": [ "181536285", "123657996", "74916050" ], "author": [ "2560812393" ], "reference": [ "1998945835", "2102702585", "2328801437", "2331496987" ], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "The House of Kadmos in Mycenaean Thebes reconsidered: architecture, chronology, and context", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2022842257", "venue": "56601287", "year": "2001", "title": "between two oceans a military history of singapore from first settlement to final british withdrawal malcolm h murfett john n miksic brian p farrell and chiang ming shun", "label": [ "195244886", "5021368" ], "author": [ "2893915089" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Between Two Oceans: A Military History of Singapore from First Settlement to Final British Withdrawal, Malcolm H.

Out of the combined training and research programmes conducted by the University of Asmara have come several major discoveries that change the way that the rise of urbanism is seen in the Horn of Africa. We highlight research showing that between 800 BC and 400 BC the greater Asmara area of Eritrea supported the earliest settled agropastoralist communities known in the highlands of the Horn. These communities pre-date and are contemporaneous with Pre-Aksumite settlements in the highlands of southern Eritrea and northern Ethiopia.\u2019 The agropastoralist settlements around Asmara were vital precursors to later 1stmillennium BC and early 1st-millennium AD urban developments in the southern highlands of Eritrea at Keskese, Matara and Qohaito. Matara, 90 km to the south of Asmara, was an urban centre of between 20 and 40 ha, possibly even larger. It was likely an Aksumite administrative centre that also had a significant Pre-Axumite settlement that has been dated to approximately 500 BC by the French archaeologist Francis Aiifray (1967; 1974), suggesting that the communities around today\u2019s Asmara were the first in the region to show an organic 1 In rrr:eiit piiblications, Kodolfo F\u2018attovich contends that the \u2018Pre-Aksumitc Culture\u2019 period dates from approximately 8001700 BC to 4001300 BC (e.g. Fattovich 1997b; 2000). growth toward demographic complexity. Another urban center, Qohaito, located approximately 70 km south of Asmara, was an ancient garden city (Schmidt &Wright 1995) surrounded by hundreds of satellite towns, villages and homesteads located on the 13x3 km Qohaito plateau (Wenig 1997) and connected to a larger urban hinterland (Curtis & Libsekal 1999). Qohaito remains unexcavated, but survey evidence indicates that its urban character derives from a tradition that goes back to Matara and the communities of the Greater Asmara area. We also discuss evidence that suggests the possible presence of humped cattle (Bos indicus) in the greater Asmara area about 500 BC, revising previous ideas about the arrival of this species in the Horn and assessing what importance it has for the development of a settled agropastoral way of life." }, { "paper": "1526680924", "venue": "3880285", "year": "2001", "title": "tales told by loops whorls and ridges", "label": [ "2780616401", "52119013", "2779732396" ], "author": [ "1779909432" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "suspect identities a history of fingerprinting and criminal identification simon a cole harvard university press cambridge ma 2001 381 pp 35 23 95 isbn 0 674 00455 8 cole offers a critical examination of how the fingerprints came to be seen as a trustworthy technique for identifying individuals and how the craft of interpreting them became a cornerstone of forensics science", "title_raw": "Tales Told by Loops, Whorls, and Ridges", "abstract_raw": "Suspect Identities A History of Fingerprinting and Criminal Identification.

Thus it was no accident that a concomitant response to the crisis provoked by emancipation should have been the colonization movement, which, in advocating the spatial externalization of blacks, proposed an alternative natural barrier with which to effect their separation.49 An objection may suggest itself. If, in the absence of slavery, blacks became anomalous, like Indians inside the frontier, why did white society not seek to eliminate blacks in the same way as Indians-by assimilation? Indeed, in a passage removed from subsequent editions of the Jeffersoniad, Thomas Jefferson himself has been cited as suggesting just this solution to the problem posed by emancipation: \"The course of events will likewise inevitably lead to a mixture of the whites and the blacks and as the former are about five times as numerous as the latter the blacks will ultimately be merged in the whites.\"50 But five to one is not nearly as comfortable a disproportion as fifty or a hundred to one. Not that demography is an answer in itself. Nor is it simply a natural occurrence. Rather, demographic imbalance is a product of history.51 In this case, it represents the difference between one group of people who had survived a centuries-long genocidal catastrophe with correspondingly depleted numbers and another group who, as commodities, had been preserved, their reproduction constituting a singularly primitive form of accumulation for their owners. Moreover, these histories were ongoing. In large areas of the agricultural South, for instance, the ending of slavery did not mean that blacks became anomalous overnight. On the contrary, they continued to furnish a cheap source of labor.52 Even when unemployed, their mere presence as a hyperexploitable alternative depressed white workers' wages. Thus we need to be clear: in the wake of slavery, blacks did not become physically anomalous as labor; they became juridically anomalous as equals. In the case of Indians within, by contrast, their very presence was anomalous-as Gary Nash put it, whites \"coveted Indian land but not land with Indians on it.\"53 Since the oppression of blacks outlived emancipation, we should not allow the discontinuation of slavery to distract us from the continuities that obtain. As Frederick Cooper, Thomas Holt, and Rebecca Scott (one of them, at least) observed of histories that fail to link the slave era to the present, \"Slave labor could be analyzed in economic, social, and political terms, but free labor was often 49 P. J. Staudenraus, The African Colonization Movement, 1816-1865 (New York, 1961). In this connection, it should be acknowledged that the idea of colonization had black support, both at the time (Paul Cuffe, John B. Russworm) and later (Marcus Garvey, who also endorsed a form of segregation). 50 In J. A. Rogers, Sex and Race: Negro-Caucasian Mixing in All Ages and All Lands, 3 vols. (New York, 1940-44), 2: 186. 51 And, as will be argued below, of culture. 52 For a recent account, see Rebecca J. Scott, \"Fault Lines, Color Lines, and Party Lines: Race, Labor, and Collective Action in Louisiana and Cuba, 1816-1912,\" in Thomas C. Holt, Scott, and Frederick Cooper, eds., Beyond Slavery: Explorations of Race, Labor, and Citizenship in Postemancipation Societies (Chapel Hill, N.C., 2000), 61-106. 53 Gary B. Nash, Red, White, and Black: The Peoples of Early North America, 3d edn. (Englewood Cliffs, N.J., 1992), 297. This is not, of course, to suggest that whites have failed to exploit Indian labor. After all, it has been there for the exploiting. The point is that the continuing presence of Indian labor occurs in spite of rather than as a result of the primary tendency of settler-colonial policy.

However, the sheer bulk of the modern edition of his correspondence may give a somewhat misleading impression of the quantity of Mersenne's own letters that have survived. A significant proportion of those seventeen volumes consists, in fact, of letters between third parties which mention Mersenne or relate in some way to his own correspondence. For the year 1641, for example, exactly 100 letters are printed: 54 are letters between third parties, 39 are letters to Mersenne, and only seven are letters by him.2 The discovery of six hitherto unknown autograph letters by Mersenne - addressed to Philip Ernst Vegelin, and located among the Vegelin papers in the Provincial Archive of Friesland at Leeuwarden - therefore amounts to a significant addition to the corpus of Mersenne's own letters.3The recipient of these letters was a talented young Dutchman of German origin, who shared some of Mersenne's scientific and musical interests, and had become acquainted with Mersenne personally in Paris. His name is not unknown to Mersenne scholars: one letter from him to Mersenne is contained in the published correspondence, and the Minim friar occasionally referred to him in letters to a mutual acquaintance.4 However, almost nothing has been written about him, apart from the brief entry in the Nieuw nederlandsch biografisch woordenboek, and virtually no attention has been given to the small but significant role he played as an intellectual intermediary between the Netherlands, France and England.5Philip Ernst Vegelin was born on 10 October 1613; his father, who bore the same name, came from a Protestant family, originally from Fribourg in Switzerland, which had moved to the Rhineland town of Neustadt, in the Palatinate. (The family name was probably derived from 'Vogelin'; the recipient of these letters normally signed himself 'Vegilin', but sometimes used 'Vegelin' - or, when writing in French, 'Veguelin', to indicate the hard 'g'. In later generations the spelling became fixed as 'Vegelin', which is the form used in this article.) Philip Ernst Vegelin senior served under Gustavus Adolphus, and was rewarded with an estate at Claerbergen, in the southern part of Friesland; the full family name therefore became Vegelin van (or 'de') Claerbergen.6Nothing is known of Philip Ernst Vegelin junior's education or early adulthood until the late 1630s, when he evidently spent some time in Paris: before he visited England in 1639 he was already well acquainted with the French engineer and musical theorist Jean Le Maire. This visionary but secretive inventor had developed a new form of musical notation, using individual symbols for notes of different pitch (instead of placing them on a stave); he also designed a new type of lute, called an 'Almerie' (an anagram of his name).7 No doubt it was Vegelin's own passion for music that drew him to Le Maire; it may also be a testimony to his personal charm that this notoriously unforthcoming inventor did apparently share some of his secrets with him. Whether Vegelin had also made the personal acquaintance of Mersenne by this stage is not known, though it does seem likely; he certainly knew of Mersenne's own work as a musical theorist (published in his huge folio volume, the Harmonie universelle) - as one of his later comments, noted by Samuel Hartlib and quoted below, makes clear. Nor is it known how long Vegelin spent in Paris at this time. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2297213266", "venue": "60563828", "year": "2001", "title": "david patterson the hebrew novel in czarist russia a portrait of jewish life in the nineteenth century xiv 321 pp lanham bolder et al rowman and littlefield 1999", "label": [ "74916050", "91304198", "150152722", "162462552" ], "author": [ "2572039680" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "DAVID PATTERSON: The Hebrew novel in Czarist Russia: a portrait of Jewish life in the nineteenth century. xiv, 321 pp. Lanham, Bolder et al.: Rowman and Littlefield, 1999.", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2095250491", "venue": "56601287", "year": "2001", "title": "reform in great britain and germany 1750 1850 t c w blanning and peter wende", "label": [ "6303427" ], "author": [ "2575169714" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Reform in Great Britain and Germany, 1750\u20131850.

The \"textiles\" given by Medea to Creon's daughter are, I suggest, a significant component in the play's construction of Medea's agency and her participation in relations of philia. 4 What can the objects that Medea uses as instruments of ven- geance tell us about the identity of this heroine and the active role she" }, { "paper": "2918903485", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2001", "title": "pieter lagrou the legacy of nazi occupation patriotic memory and national recovery in western europe 1945 1965 studies in the social and cultural history of modern warfare number 8 new york cambridge university press 2000 pp xiii 327 59 95", "label": [ "2781023928", "10187730", "5616717", "195244886" ], "author": [ "2579375571" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Pieter Lagrou.

Nothing could be further from the truth. We share every professional historian's concern for the integrity of the data. Indeed, in other work that we have done, we have 'left our computers' and have both proven keen archival historians.1 Razzell argues that the quality of smallpox recording in the Marine Society dataset is so poor that 'the impact of smallpox on average height cannot be settled by analysis of the Marine Society dataset'.2 We believe that this grossly overstates the problems of the records, and is based on a careless reading of the original records on his part. Furthermore, insofar as his claim that some of the boys who are recorded as escaping smallpox had in fact suffered the disease, the direction of bias strengthens rather than weakens the statistical evidence that smallpox reduced height. At the heart of the reliability issue is the method of recording whether a boy had suffered smallpox. The Marine Society Registrars recorded that a boy had had smallpox by placing a p in the column labelled 'spox', leaving it blank otherwise. Similarly they recorded a person as literate by placing an r in the reading column and a w in the writing column, leaving them blank otherwise. The computerized dataset likewise contains a mark where the original records have one, and a blank otherwise. Interpreting a p in the spox column is thus straightforward: the registrar clearly believed the boy to have had smallpox. The adequacy of smallpox registration thus turns on our interpretation of a blank in the smallpox column. If the registrar was conscientious, a blank in the spox column would indicate that the registrar believed that the boy had not had smallpox. If the registrar was incompetent or negligent, a blank would indicate that he failed either to ask the question or to record the answer. In claiming 'complete inadequacy of smallpox registration' Razzell is arguing that the registrars frequently failed to fill in their registers properly.

To a large extent this is 'auteur' or art-movie cinema. Spanish Cinema concentrates upon that tradition, focusing upon the key films in a period stretching from 1952 to the present day. The term 'auteur' has lately fallen into disrepute. The idea - most actively promoted by Cahiers du Cinema in the late 1950s and early 1960s - that the director is to a film what an author is to a poem, play or novel, has been subjected to much criticism since structuralist and post-structuralist attacks on the author. But even in pre-'death of the author' days film raised its own specific problems about authorship. Nevertheless, since the initial excitement of French critical theory's provocative assault on conventional notions of authorship, and taking into account specific problems related to the collaborative nature of film-making, attempts have recently been made to reclaim some of the ground lost by the author in these critical and theoretical battles. This volume offers lively readings of films by key directors working to a large extent in the art-movie/'auteurist' field, and aims to strike a balance between representative films, directors and periods. Each chapter concentrates on a single film, discussing it in accessible critical language that takes account both of the distinctiveness of film as an art form and of the material and socio-historical contexts in which each film was made." }, { "paper": "2009995330", "venue": "42922845", "year": "2001", "title": "the yeomanry of robin hood and social terminology in fifteenth century england", "label": [ "74916050", "2781119825" ], "author": [ "2662581020", "2649429716" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "The Yeomanry of Robin Hood and Social Terminology in Fifteenth-Century England", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2512304431", "venue": "164398212", "year": "2001", "title": "chaucer and the trivium the mindsong of the canterbury tales j stephen russell", "label": [ "74916050" ], "author": [ "1480638455" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Chaucer and the Trivium: The Mindsong of the Canterbury Tales.

There are several supplementary sources that are valuable as auxiliary, although later, witnesses. The papyri of the Ptolemaic and Roman eras, the scholia, and quotations by post-fourthcentury authors are among the ancient authorities that can give further support to the early Homeric quotations. When taken altogether the picture they create of the fourth-century Homeric text is quite different from our own. There are numerous verses that are seemingly intrusive from the standpoint of the medieval vulgate, the so-called plus verses, and others that are absent, which may be termed minus verses.1 Equally prevalent is variation of phraseology within lines.2 In most cases the variation is of a demonstrably formulaic nature in which one Homeric formula is present in place of another, and the superiority of one or the other reading cannot be assumed. Some scholars are inclined, like Stephanie West, to dismiss most variants preserved in the early papyri. Nevertheless, West concedes that in most cases the plus verses presented by the early Ptolemaic papyri seem no less \"Homeric\" than those that survived medieval transmission. As West summarizes: \"It is disconcerting to have to admit the possibility that authentic lines may have been lost after surviving till the second century B.C.\"3" }, { "paper": "2204879693", "venue": "31769938", "year": "2001", "title": "barbarism and religion i the enlightenments of edward gibbon 1737 1764 ii narratives of civil government by j g a pocock pp xv 339 xiv 422 cambridge cambridge university press 55 boxed set 0 521 63345 1 0 521 64002 4 0 521 77921 9", "label": [ "74916050", "2779321823" ], "author": [ "2988036684" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Barbarism and religion , I: The enlightenments of Edward Gibbon, 1737\u20131764 ; II: Narratives of civil government .

Edited by Richard Alan Ryerson. (Boston: Northeastern University Press, 2001. Pp. x, 294. $60.00.) It would be a shame if this collection of essays were to be lost in the vast shade cast by David McCullough's best-selling biography of John Adams. The fruits of a conference on Adams held at the Massachusetts Historical Society in 1996, these essays offer tightly focused views of various aspects of Adams's life, loosely grouped into such categories as law, diplomacy, statecraft, and political thought. As is usually the case with collections of this sort, some of the essays are more fully developed than others, but all can be read with profit by historians and students of the early republic. John Adams was a notoriously difficult man who seemed to court unpopularity as eagerly as others sought popular acclaim. He has always been, as editor Richard Alan Ryerson points out in his introduction, \"more admired than loved\" (1). Given his critical importance to the winning of American independence-both in preparing the political ground for the Revolution and in devising a diplomatic end to it-his political writings, and his later career as vice-president and then president, Adams's fame would seem to rest upon solid ground. According to Ryerson, however, Adams has never received his due. Perhaps with all the publicity surrounding McCullough's biography, that will now change. Adams's reputation for crustiness and plainspokenness rests in part upon the amplitude and frankness of his writings. No one who has dipped into the Adams correspondence, particularly the letters exchanged between John and Abigail Adams, can be unimpressed with the candor and emotion of his writing, as if every fevered imagining of his brain forced him to put pen to paper. Another crucial element in Adams's character, as William Pencak points out in his essay, is the influence of a number of Massachusetts worthies to whom the young Adams looked as models of manhood and professionalism. All of the three-Adams's father, John Adams Sr., and the lawyers Timothy Ruggles and Jeremiah Gridley-crafted reputations for integrity and candor and carried their unpopularity as a badge that reinforced their own sense of merit. For these men, popular acclaim was the yardstick by which a man's perfidy, incompetence, or greed could be measured. It was a lesson Adams learned well. John E. Ferling examines Adams's formative years through a comparison with the young Thomas Jefferson. Though the two men came from very different backgrounds, they showed striking similarities on their way to successful political careers. Ambitious not only for fame but also for personal independence, the two showed remarkable industry and diligence in mastering the law. For both men, these studies sparked a hunger for knowledge that never dimmed. Gregg L. Lint finds the roots of Adams's success as a diplomat in his methods and attitude: his preference for boldness, frankness, and energy in pursuit of American goals. \u2026" }, { "paper": "1536448912", "venue": "3880285", "year": "2002", "title": "going head to head over boas s data", "label": [ "70036468", "2780422015", "53553401" ], "author": [ "2188333814" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "anthropology studying skull dimensions is commonplace in forensics and paleoanthropology but two new papers offering diametrically opposed analyses of a classic study by franz boas suggest that the technique is still controversial for many anthropologists entwined in the ongoing debate over the", "title_raw": "Going Head-to-Head Over Boas's Data", "abstract_raw": "ANTHROPOLOGY\nStudying skull dimensions is commonplace in forensics and paleoanthropology.

Flanked by the paramilitary arm of the South Carolina Democratic Party--which was made up of local groups known as \"rifle clubs\"--Hampton entered the midlands town of Sumter, South Carolina, an important stop in his gubernatorial campaign tour. In the center of town, a speakers' stand had been erected, and on it a black-robed figure, bound in chains, stood solemnly before a crowd of farmers and townspeople. As the hopeful candidate assumed his position on the platform, the shadowy figure flung off its chains and cast aside its robe of mourning, revealing a beautiful young woman, with skin and dress of white, wearing a tiara emblazoned with the words South Carolina. The journalist Alfred Brockenbrough Williams witnessed the crowd erupt at this performance, with many of the men openly weeping. Late into the night, Williams reported, frenzied horsemen rode through the town crying out \"Hampton or Hell!\" The candidacy of Wade Hampton in the 1876 governor's race seemed to these white South Carolinians to be the chance to restore South Carolina to \"home rule.\" (1) The historiography of southern \"Redemption\" has tended to focus on the ways in which conservative whites used fraud and violence to overturn Reconstruction regimes. Whether the story is told as a heroic narrative of \"redemption\" or as a dream of democracy deferred, the emphasis has centered on votes--whether bought, coerced, or fraudulently counted. (2) No new evidence challenges the role of intimidation and violence in this and other Redemption contests. Former Confederate brigadier general and leading \"straight-out\" Democrat, Martin Witherspoon Gary, certainly believed that for the Hampton campaign to succeed without compromise or cooperation with Republicans, \"every Democrat must feel honor bound to control the vote of at least one negro.\" (3) This article, however, also takes into account Gary's contention that the Hampton campaign must \"get up all the enthusiasm we can among the masses.\" (4) South Carolina Conservatives, like Gary, recognized that these white masses were the key to Democrats' regaining power in postbellum society. They understood, moreover, that power functioned best in a context of cultural consensus. If Conservatives could control the tenets of that consensus in such a way that the white masses acquiesced to domination by the Democratic elite, then Conservative rule would certainly be assured. To this end, in the 1876 campaign Conservatives successfully created and celebrated a public spectacle that drew upon the racial and gendered obsessions of white Carolina culture. The ritual and rhetoric that accompanied the so-called Hampton Days of September and October 1876 depicted the conflict between Democrat Wade Hampton and Republican incumbent Daniel H. Chamberlain as a religious struggle between good and evil (between \"Hampton\" and \"Hell\") and preyed upon white anxieties about ideas of race and gender. As public representations of cultural ideology, the Hampton Days celebrations bring us into a tightly woven network of memory and myth. A close examination of this ideology's manifestation as public spectacle in the Hampton campaign promises two important results. First, it opens a window to the vexed question of southern conservatism. The attempt to define the conservative worldview of the South has generally focused on the lineaments of proslavery ideology or on the planter's relationship to bourgeois capitalism. Eugene D. Genovese's skillful explication sees southern conservatism as \"a variant of transatlantic traditionalism\" that \"expresses a belief in a transcendent order\" and \"accepts social stratification as necessary and proper.\" (5) But this ideology, as the Hampton Days celebrations suggest, lived in public spectacle as well as in the writings and ruminations of the southern learned divines and public intellectuals who populate the pages of Genovese's work. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2107249141", "venue": "31769938", "year": "2002", "title": "king james i and the religious culture of england by james doelman studies in renaissance literature 4 pp viii 184 cambridge d s brewer 2000 40 0 85991 593 x 1465 6310", "label": [ "74916050", "72848699" ], "author": [ "2112303974" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "King James I and the religious culture of England.

As a result, \u201cAnything put on stage in a comedy would become public property and be absorbed into the repertoire, so that all comic poets contributed to it; and all drew on it, although each would aim to give a new and original twist to the material which he borrowed, so that the repertoire constantly evolved. If this was so, then any poet could lay claim to originality . . . and any rival could make a counterclaim of plagiarism.\u201d 1 These remarks have important implications for the study of Old Comedy, not least in exposing the irony of such assertions as that of Antiphanes (Poie\\, fr. 189 K-A), which overstates generic distinctions between tragedy and comedy on the score of originality. Beyond merely acknowledging comedy\u2019s essentially adaptive nature, Heath\u2019s position suggests that a certain degree of allusiveness was, as it were, built into the genre. Unfortunately there are few opportunities to test the potential insights that follow from Heath\u2019s general proposition since the corpus of comic fragments poses so many questions of plot, context, attribution, and\u2014always important for this kind of study\u2014chronology. There is one sequence of plays, however, that has attracted attention since antiquity as an example of comic poets responding to one another and for which valuable insights can still be gained by building on Heath\u2019s thesis.

His central role in the North Berwick witch trials in the early 1590s, coupled with the publication of his Daemonologie later in the decade, place him as a central figure in the debates of the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries. Because of this it has been postulated that he was a driving figure in the witch-hunts of the 1590s in Scotland, and was subsequently instrumental in fuelling similar events after his accession to the English throne in 1603. Although two English editions of the Daemonologie were put to press in the year he took the throne and there was subsequent public interest in the subject, James himself can not really be charged with fuelling interest in witchcraft after he came to the throne of England. As James Sharpe points out, 'A closer examination of James's track-record in instances of witchcraft while king of England . . . reveals that his attitudes were far removed from the propensity for rabid witch-hunting that has been attributed to him'.1James's presence, perhaps unsurprisingly then, is keenly felt in all the books under consideration here, and two of them - Maxwell-Stuart's Satan's Conspiracy, and Normand and Roberts's Witchcraft in Early Modern Scotland - closely engage with the question of James's role in the North Berwick trials and the subsequent witch hunts. In the former it is considered as part of a survey of magic and witchcraft in the later sixteenth century, while the latter is solely concerned with the trials themselves; and in both books Daemonologie is convincingly shown to have had its genesis in the trials which preceded its composition. However, neither paint the picture of James as the instigator of the witch-hunts that followed in Scotland, but rather see them as driven not by the king but the Kirk. Of course the events at North Berwick no doubt lingered in the minds of the populace and had some bearing on what followed, but it was by no means part of a personal quest by James. Indeed the publication of Daemonologie actually marks the end of the witch trials, with James disbanding all the standing commissions to try witchcraft in August 1597, only a few months after the book was published in Edinburgh.James's treatise is one of the key texts for any study of Renaissance occult works in English, and Lawrence Normand and the late Gareth Roberts have certainly provided scholars of witchcraft with a very important and useful resource by reproducing not only the text of Daemonologie, but also Newes from Scotland, and transcripts of the dittays as well as the examinations, confessions, and depositions of those accused of witchcraft. The latter are not found in Pitcairn's Ancient Criminal Trials and appear here in print for the first time. I am also much pleased to find they have even reproduced all the illustrations that accompanied Newes from Scotland.

Firstly the documents themselves are not indexed in the bibliography, but only the introductions to the documents and the essays on the context, which together form the first part of the volume.

After months of passing the hat among countries and private companies, the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) announced earlier this week that it's garnered the $100 million the 3-year effort to construct a so-called haplotype map is likely to cost. But even as the project was announced with considerable fanfare, many details remained sketchy.\n\nThe idea for the HapMap, as it's informally known, arose soon after scientists discovered that the human genome has a surprisingly structured architecture. Thousands of DNA bases, and the patterns of single-base variations among them, fall into roughly the same order in many people. A popular theory is that slight tweaks in those DNA blocks, or haplotypes, could mean the difference between health and ailments ranging from cancer to diabetes. Researchers plan to examine 200 to 400 genetic samples from four populations in Africa, Asia, and the United States. (Previous studies have shown that haplotype patterns differ in part based on migratory histories.)\n\nEnthusiastic about the HapMap's potential to provide medical answers that the full human genome sequence has yet to offer, NIH paved the way, planning a $40 million commitment early this year. Since then, the Canadian government kicked in a little under $10 million and, more recently, the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute in Hinxton, U.K., about $25 million. Japan, China, and the SNP Consortium, a public-private group seeking single-base differences among genomes, are also adding to the pot.\n\nWork is expected to begin as soon as participants at genome centers in the United States and abroad agree on some ground rules for the project, perhaps the most unwieldy collaboration since the sequencing of the human genome. They have yet to determine, for instance, how data collection will be standardized. Also uncertain is precisely how the map will be structured and how the work will be divvied up.\n\n\u201cWe've learned how to find good ways to work together,\u201d says David Bentley, head of human genetics at the Sanger Institute. But he notes that unlike the 3 billion bases biologists knew they'd uncover in the genome project, here no one knows quite what to expect." }, { "paper": "2087642204", "venue": "34740387", "year": "2002", "title": "interpretive challenges in the study of early complexity economy ritual and architecture at paso de la amada mexico", "label": [ "123657996" ], "author": [ "1037915048", "2477004469" ], "reference": [ "589139314", "615675971", "655304392", "1472436416", "1578350729", "1581273072", "1584024769", "1657996913", "1975371729", "1994937300", "2009352913", "2010046976", "2012043036", "2025709959", "2027786223", "2034272959", "2039606797", "2042153105", "2044748297", "2049002555", "2058396369", "2059739799", "2063430066", "2074727951", "2098514282", "2106046972", "2120523108", "2136566272", "2140271755", "2161532865", "2164859621", "2231462318", "2257881333", "2259050819", "2289908060", "2291986940", "2313023633", "2325246631", "2332603768", "2560126567", "2608401856", "2728277008", "2797369771", "2903760147", "3002669245" ], "abstract": "archaeologists studying emergent complexity face significant interpretive challenges as they move beyond societal classification to explore associations of social economic or political variables analyses claiming surprising associations of variable states can no longer be dismissed out of hand but they also need to be carefully scrutinized for weaknesses of logic and evidence previous analyses of architecture and artifact distributions at the early formative site of paso de la amada chiapas mexico have yielded just such surprising results one pointing to significant inequalities between households while the other suggests greater equality after a review of both analyses we argue that it is not necessary to dismiss one or the other it may be that at this early point in the period of settled village life on the chiapas coast significant status differences between residential groups as expressed in architecture had emerged but that they were still tied only ineffectively to the economy as represented by various classes of artifacts", "title_raw": "Interpretive Challenges in the Study of Early Complexity: Economy, Ritual, and Architecture at Paso de la Amada, Mexico", "abstract_raw": "Archaeologists studying emergent complexity face significant interpretive challenges as they move beyond societal classification to explore associations of social, economic, or political variables.

Various sources attribute to him extraordinary achievements: he received cult in his own lifetime; he fought with and overcame the ?Hero of Temesa?, a daimon who in ritual deflowered a virgin in the Italian city of Temesa every year; and he vanished into a local river instead of dying (extant iconography from Locri shows him as a river god receiving cult a century after his death). By taking an integrative approach to Euthymos? legend and cult iconography, this article proposes a new interpretation of the complex. It is argued that Euthymos received cult already in his lifetime in consequence of his victory over the Hero and that he took over, in a modified form, the Hero?s cult. Various considerations, including the role of river gods as the recipients of brides? virginity in prenuptial rites, point to an identification of the Hero as a river deity. In this light it is suggested that the contest between Euthymos and the Hero was conceived as a deliberate emulation of Herakles? fight with Acheloos. The case of Euthymos at Locri, for all its peculiarities, draws our attention to some important aspects of the heroization of historical persons in the Classical period. First, the earliest attested cult of a living person in Greece is to be placed around the middle of the fifth century. Second, heroized persons in the Classical period were not always passive in the process of their heroization, but could actively promote it. And third, a common pattern in the heroization of contemporaries in the Classical period was to accommodate them into existing cults." }, { "paper": "2330131610", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2002", "title": "reviews of books alexander hamilton and the persistence of myth stephen f knott", "label": [ "74916050", "519517224" ], "author": [ "2950767784" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Reviews of Books:Alexander Hamilton and the Persistence of Myth Stephen F.

JSPSup 34. Sheffield Academic Press Ltd, 2001. Pp. 240. $80.00. This revision of the author's doctoral dissertation is presented in four chapters and a conclusion. The first chapter, \"The Study of the Isaiah Scroll,\" includes remarks on scribal aspects of the 1QIsa(a) scroll, the largest biblical text from Qumran. It contains 1,573 well-preserved lines in fifty-four columns. The remarks include research on the scroll that touches on the aims and purpose of his study. He points out that while the bulk of about 1,200 variants between the scroll and BHK are orthographic, they are not all of this nature. Distinct orthographic differences are noted between the first thirtythree chapters of the scroll and the following chapters. He minimizes the suggestion that the scrolls were written by two scribes or that the same scribe used two different Vorlagen and favors E. Y. Kutscher's suggestion that a single scribe copied both sections as he was struggling with a new system of orthography. This conclusion is based on an observation by Kutscher and others that the change in orthography was gradual and not abrupt. The author's primary interest is in the kinds of variants in the scroll. He states that a prejudice that the scroll's variants were due to scribal errors has dominated the discussion. He describes errors as those where the text fails to fit the context and where no other explanations are possible. In short, the scribe of 1QIsa(a) did poor work according to past opinion. He notes, however, that there are writers who have suggested that a number of variants are interpretative readings of that scribe. These authors include W. H. Brownlee and A. van der Kooij. While he appreciates their efforts to pursue this line of thinking, he largely discounts their labors, attributing their analysis to \"scholarly prejudices\" (an oxymoron?). He then appraises Kutscher's extensive work, which fundamentally relegates variants to differences in the linguistic milieu of the Second Temple period. He criticizes Kutscher for failing to analyze the differences for the \"immediate linguistic context.\" By this he means that Kutscher did not utilize scribal conventions in other Qumran texts as well as the scroll's physical presence in the same geographical region. He cites examples of Kutscher's failure to realize differences not due to linguistic adaptation. Nevertheless he concedes that linguistic influences are one facet that contributes to an analysis of interpretive readings. Awareness of Kutscher's work is extensive throughout. Subsequently, he discusses the aims and approach of his own work. Because of the \"stricter framework\" of past critics, all variants were assigned to mechanical errors that either discounted or neglected other possibilities, namely, interpretive readings. This \"stricter framework\" assumed that the Qumran scribes used the same standards of the later Masoretic scribes whose aim was to copy the Hebrew text without any deviations. This viewpoint Pulikottil is right to address. While creative scribal activity at Qumran appears to be beyond question, given the history of scribal activity in the ancient Near East, one cannot assume that the later \"stricter framework\" was not maintained by some non-Qumran scribes, a clear probability given the nature of Scripture. The issue then rests on the attitude and purpose of the Qumran scribes in transmitting a biblical text. Pulikottil asserts that these scribes considered biblical texts as \"changeable and susceptible to further literary growth.\" The author then proceeds to develop his point in an analysis of 1QIsa(a). It is an appropriate starting point because the consonantal text of this scroll is basically the same as the MT. The author states that he will pursue his task by exploring the most important indicators of change, unique readings of the manuscript. \u2026" }, { "paper": "1984307326", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2002", "title": "reviews of books spiritual economies female monasticism in later medieval england nancy bradley warren", "label": [ "74916050", "2776083423" ], "author": [ "2515093207" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Reviews of Books:Spiritual Economies: Female Monasticism in Later Medieval England Nancy Bradley Warren", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "1990172371", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2002", "title": "reviews of books to come to the land immigration and settlement in sixteenth century eretz israel abraham david dena ordan", "label": [ "70036468", "6303427" ], "author": [ "2988386181" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Reviews of Books:To Come to the Land: Immigration and Settlement in Sixteenth-Century Eretz-Israel Abraham David, Dena Ordan", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "613641455", "venue": "119035484", "year": "2002", "title": "the blues in gray the civil war journal of william daniel dixon and the republican blues daybook", "label": [ "81631423", "554144382", "195244886", "139015958" ], "author": [ "2306175296", "2310942679" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "unlike confederate units formed during the civil war the republican blues had been an existing militia organization in savannah georgia for over fifty years a professional fighting unit rather than an assemblage of ragtag volunteers the blues had served under the u s flag before taking up arms against it and after the war they continued their existence in the national guard of the reunited nation the blues in gray combines the unit s daybook with the journal of company commander william dixon to offer a day by day account of many facets of the war from the drudgery of garrison duty to the horror of the battlefield roger durham has interwoven the documents to provide fresh insights from a theater of the war seldom noted by historians the republican blues spent three years on the georgia coast where they came under seven naval attacks at fort mcallister before joining the army of tennessee to defend northern georgia against sherman dixon s journal allows us to follow the course of the war and share his correspondence with family and friends while the daybook lets us observe the unit s administration the volume also offers unusual revelations about the final months of the war including a moving account of the retreat of hood s army from nashville where barefooted soldiers left bloody footprints in the snow with its vivid glimpses of civil war life in both camp and combat the blues in gray provides a confederate soldier s view of the entire conflict not just a segment of service and a rich new source of primary material more importantly it breaks through the stereotype of johnny reb to show us the trials and triumphs of professional military men in thesouth", "title_raw": "The Blues in Gray: The Civil War Journal of William Daniel Dixon and the Republican Blues Daybook", "abstract_raw": "Unlike Confederate units formed during the Civil War, the Republican Blues had been an existing militia organization in Savannah, Georgia, for over fifty years -- a professional fighting unit rather than an assemblage of ragtag volunteers. The Blues had served under the U.S. flag before taking up arms against it, and after the war they continued their existence in the National Guard of the reunited nation. The Blues in Gray combines the unit's daybook with the journal of company commander William Dixon to offer a day-by-day account of many facets of the war, from the drudgery of garrison duty to the horror of the battlefield. Roger Durham has interwoven the documents to provide fresh insights from a theater of the war seldom noted by historians. The Republican Blues spent three years on the Georgia coast, where they came under seven naval attacks at Fort McAllister before joining the Army of Tennessee to defend northern Georgia against Sherman. Dixon's journal allows us to follow the course of the war and share his correspondence with family and friends, while the daybook lets us observe the unit's administration. The volume also offers unusual revelations about the final months of the war, including a moving account of the retreat of Hood's army from Nashville, where barefooted soldiers left bloody footprints in the snow. With its vivid glimpses of Civil War life in both camp and combat, The Blues in Gray provides a Confederate soldier's view of the entire conflict -- not just a segment of service -- and a rich new source of primary material. More importantly, it breaks through the stereotype of Johnny Reb to show us the trials and triumphs of professional military men in theSouth." }, { "paper": "2007470810", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2002", "title": "reviews of books bananas an american history virginia scott jenkins", "label": [ "74916050" ], "author": [ "2649415913" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Reviews of Books:Bananas: An American History Virginia Scott Jenkins", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2035194602", "venue": "34864311", "year": "2002", "title": "interpretations of native north american life material contributions to ethnohistory", "label": [ "2779269003", "104629281", "2780895891", "501303744" ], "author": [ "2575003173", "2480510124" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "bringing together the perspectives of archaeologists ethnohistorians and art historians these tightly integrated case studies highlight the significance of material objects to the study and interpretation of native north american culture history and identity the authors contend that archaeological remains and ethnographic specimens can and indeed should be analyzed in tandem with other souces of historical data e g written texts oral accounts to expand our understanding of native culture change and continuity from the pre columbian era through the present the essays in this collection begin with concrete tangible expressions of native american culture which in most cases were made and used to meet basic human needs or to participate in social and religious life material objects invite interdis ciplinary study because they are a rich source of information about how human societies and social identities were created reproduced and transformed while this volume serves to complement and enhance our historical and cultural understanding of native peoples throughout north america the theoretical approaches and research methodologies showcased here have implications for studies anywhere people left material traces of their activities identities and lives contentspart i ethnogenesis the creation maintenance and transformation of ethnic identity1 ritual and material culture as keys to cultural continuity native american interaction with europeans in eastern arkansas 1541 1682 by kathleen h cande2 the identity of stadacona and hochelaga comprehension and conflict by james f pendergast3 echoing the past reconciling ethnohistorical and archaeological views of ho chunk winnebago ethnogenesis by john p staeck4 the politics of pottery material culture and political process among algonquians of 17th century southern new england by eric s johnson5 emblems of ethnicity ribbonwork garments from the great lakes region by susan m neill part ii change and continuity in daily life6 francois house a significant pedlars post on the saskatchewan by alice beck kehoe7 improving our understanding of native american acculturation through the archaeological record an example from the mono basin of eastern california by brooke s arkush8 cache pits ethnohistory archaeology and the continuity of tradition by sean b dunham9 maple sugaring in prehistory tapping the sources by carol i mason and margaret b holman10 archaeology of a contact period plateau salishan village at thompson s river post kamloops british columbia by catherine c carlson 11 obtaining information via defective documents a search for the mandan in george catlin s paintings by mark s parker millerpart iii ritual iconography and ideology12 images of women in native american iconography by larissa a thomas 13 tlingit human masks as documents of culture change and continuity by barbara brotherton 14 one island two places archaeology memory and meaning in a rhode island town by paul a robinson 15 archaeology and oral tradition in tandem interpreting native american ritual ideology and gender relations in contact period southeastern new england by michael s nassaney this title is published in conjunction with the society for historical archaeologymichael s nassaney associate professor of anthropology at western michigan university is the editor or coeditor of four books including the archaeological northeast eric s johnson a preservation planner at the massachusetts historical commission has written numerous articles and monographs on new england archaeology and ethnohistory", "title_raw": "Interpretations of Native North American Life: Material Contributions to Ethnohistory", "abstract_raw": "Bringing together the perspectives of archaeologists, ethnohistorians, and art historians, these tightly integrated case studies highlight the significance of material objects to the study and interpretation of Native North American culture, history, and identity.

Greek families tended to be small. But family size was not determined by parental choice; it was the result of high rates of infant and child mortality. Until the discovery of the germ theory of disease at the end of the nineteenth century and the advent of modern medicine, child mortality rates everywhere were extremely high.4 In early modern Europe, for example, where good records of births and deaths were kept, it generally took two live births to produce one adult; in other words, every other child died.5 There is no reason to believe that the mortality rate was any different in ancient Greece. Ancient authors allude to the high mortality rate of children and young people. Demosthenes (57.28), for example, provides a glimpse of this reality when Euxitheos states that his father had four cacti6; (usually translated as \"sons,\" but who could have been daughters), born of the same mother as himself, who died and were buried in the ancestral tomb.

Those earlier periods, with the occasional exception of the failed foreign policy efforts of Woodrow Wilson, were ignored or treated as colorful side shows. Analysis was focused on the Cold War, which often was presented as if it had sprung without historical context directly out of the Truman administration's response to the Soviet challenge right after World War II. American foreign policy was viewed simply as the sum of its Cold War components. Events before World War II were reserved for specialists and historians, something that hardly existed for most Americans-without relevance to the modern era. As it turns out-and as many historians knew all along-the United States always had a foreign policy, with underlying themes and motives that grew organically out of the domestic American experience. American foreign policy did not start in 1945, or even 1917. A central political struggle between John Adams and Thomas Jefferson concerned relations with Britain and France, as both David McCullough and Joseph Ellis reminded us.

A use as animal (notably horse) bells, however, was not widespread before the later Roman period. The bells' origins lie in the ancient Near East and Caucasian area, from where they found their way especially to Archaic Samos and Cyprus and later to mainland Greece. Here, the largest known find complex of bronze and terracotta bells, mostly of Classical date, comes from the old British excavations in the sanctuary of Athena on the Spartan acropolis and is published here for the first time.

since 1976, when John Leighly delivered the inaugural Carl O. Sauer Memorial Lecture, I am impressed by how widely my predecessors have ranged in time and space, as befits the celebration of a man whose scholarship was as broad and deep as Carl Sauer's. Some chose topics only tangentially linked to Sauer's own work, but most spoke about aspects of their research that were inspired, directly or indirectly, by his unique geographical and historical vision. On this occasion, I want to follow a somewhat different path by offering a critique of one part of that vision: Sauer's contributions to the study of prehistory. I count myself very fortunate to have been one of those who came directly under Mr. Sauer's influence (Figure 1). Encountering him, and others in the Berkeley Department of Geography in the mid-1950s, was for me a liberating and defining experience. Under Sauer's inspirational tutelage, and responding to the diverse talents of his remarkable departmental colleagues--Clarence Glacken, John Kesseli, John Leighly, Jim Parsons, and Erhard Rostlund--I discovered a new kind of geography, unrestricted in its exploration of time as well as space. Since then I have strayed beyond the institutional bounds of geography into archaeology but, happily, have found the boundary between them to be a comfortably permeable one. In his well-known poem The Road Not Taken, the New England poet Robert Frost regretted, when faced by two roads diverging in a yellow wood, that he \"could not travel both And be one traveller\" (1955, 78). I have found the geographical and archaeological roads to be so intimately intertwined that it has been possible to make one journey along them, and for me, echoing Frost, \"that has made all the difference? That journey started for me on the Berkeley campus, where the discovery of Sauer's kind of geography, intellectually unconfined by the conventional disciplinary boundaries of academia, came as a revelation, especially his bold explorations of the \"farther reaches of human time.\" (1) So for this lecture l have chosen to focus on two aspects of humanity's remote past that fascinated Sauer and have shaped our own world. They transformed mankind's relationship to the planet and can be seen in retrospect as major transitions on Homo sapiens' pathway to what Sauer characterized as \"man's ecological dominance.\" (2) They are, first, the initial dispersal of humans, aided by fire, out of Africa and into Eurasia and, second, the origins and prehistoric spread of agriculture. Sauer made farsighted contributions to both topics, and my purpose is to comment on how our knowledge of each has changed since his time--for today they are subjects of much new research, and not a little controversy. Before turning to the first topic, l want to draw attention to Sauer's attitude toward the interplay of human geography with prehistoric archaeology. This is most explicitly expressed in his presidential address to the Association of American Geographers in 1940, \"Foreword to Historical Geography\" (1941). There, in the section entitled \"The Relevance of All Human Time,\" he points to archaeology's \"specifically geographic dimension,\" commends geographers who have \"concerned themselves with prehistoric settlements and culture,\" suggests that the remit of historical geographers is to study \"human origins and changes throughout all human time\" and concludes--with some asperity--\"Let no one think, therefore, that we are in any sense off-side from the main theme [of human geography] if we work at the farthest reaches of time\" (p. 13). He himself did just that, in a series of scholarly and speculative essays, most of which were published between 1944 and 1962 and provide the background to this lecture.

Abandoning the older quest for a Corinthian heresy, recent studies have rightly tended to understand the factions in Corinth against the background of the conventions of Greco-Roman rhetoric. It should not be overlooked, however, that Paul understood these factions as symptomatic of a grave theological error in Corinth.1 The thesis of this article is that by attempting to excel by worldly stanIMAGE FORMULA4 dards, the Corinthians were running the risk of defining themselves as those for whom the gospel was hidden and thus forfeiting their salvation. After a brief survey of recent research on the factionalism in Corinth, we shall see how Paul's discourse on wisdom in 1 Cor 2:6-16 serves his rhetorical purpose by undermining the basis for the factions. A true comprehension of the gospel is irreconcilable with the bickering that characterized the Corinthian church. In order to demonstrate our thesis, we will show that the divine wisdom in 1 Cor 2:6-16 is to be identified with the gospel, that this wisdom is hidden under its apparent foolishness for those who want to be wise according to the standards of this world, and that the perfect, who receive this wisdom, are all Christians. We will then see that Paul is challenging the Corinthians: Will they side with the wise of this world, or will they show themselves as being among the perfect, that is, the Christians, who have rejected the standards of the world? The factionalism, based on competition by worldly standards, indicates that the former is the case. For Paul, sociology is indicative of theology. The uniqueness of 1 Corinthians, therefore, can be fully appreciated only when the letter is examined in its theological as well as its sociological world. I. The Factions First Corinthians 1:10-4:21 maybe characterized as deliberative rhetoric, the thesis statement being found in 1:10: \"Now I appeal to you, brothers and sisters, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you be in agreement and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be united in the same mind and the same purpose.\"2 The reasons for the factionalism in Corinth were IMAGE FORMULA7 manifold.3 In 1:18-3:23 Paul focuses on the role of wisdom. As has been demonstrated numerous times recently, this discussion reflects contemporary discussions on rhetoric.4 His rejection of persuasive words of wisdom in 2:4, and a number of the terms employed in this context, such as ... , ... , ...5 and the correlation of \"word\" and \"wisdom\"6 are best understood in this light. The population of Corinth consisted mainly of freedmen (Strabo 8.6.23; Epict. Disc.4.1.157), a class that was known to indulge in boasting and self-display, in order to enhance their status.7 Considering that words of the ...-- group occur with significantly increased frequency in the Corinthian letters (36 IMAGE FORMULA9 or 37 times) over against the other Pauline letters (fifteen times in the undisputed letters and once in Ephesians), one may assume that Paul considered boasting to be an issue that needed to be addressed particularly in Corinth. He underscored that boasting in anything save the Lord was excluded (1 Cor 1:31), as the divine election had turned the world's status claims upside down (1:26-28).8 When Paul rejected the use of superior words of wisdom (2:1), he was likely referring to the kind of rhetoric that was concerned with self-display, boasting, and abuse of others. The modifier \"superior\" seems to denote a form of oratory that sought impressive display, in order to be recognized as superior.9 Is it possible to more specific? Bruce W Winter has made a good case that the standards Paul rejects in 1 Cor 1-4 are sophistic standards. \u2026" }, { "paper": "538113", "venue": "173880072", "year": "2002", "title": "questions of identity for historical archaeology peter kosso knowing the past philosophical issues of history and archaeology 200 pages 21 figures 2001 amherst ny humanity 1 57392 907 7 hardback 45 john moreland archaeology and text 144 pages 7 figures 2001 london duckworth 0 7156 2998 0 paperback 9 99", "label": [ "52119013", "507827637" ], "author": [ "2035539665" ], "reference": [ "2000138195", "2049194683", "2060927465", "2534750168" ], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Questions of identity for historical archaeology.

On one hand are the conservationists seeking to preserve significant materials and structures of recent decades in the face of redevelopment and abandonment. On the other are those inspired by social theory who see in the contemporary world the opportunity to explore aspects of material culture in new and revealing ways, and perhaps above all the central question of the extent to which material culture \u2014 be it in the form of objects or buildings \u2014 actively defines the human experience. Victor Buchli's An Archaeology of Socialism takes as its subject a twentieth-century building \u2014 the Narkofim Communal House in Moscow \u2014 and seeks to understand it in terms of domestic life and changing policies of the Soviet state during the 70 or so years since its construction. Thus Buchli's study not only concerns the meaning of material culture in a modern context, but focuses specifically on the household \u2014 or more accurately on a series of households within a single Russian apartment block. A particular interest attaches to the way in which the building was planned to encourage communal living, during a pre-Stalinist phase when the State sought to intervene directly in domestic life through architectural design and the manipulation of material culture. Subsequent political changes brought a revision of modes of living within the Narkofim apartment block, as the residents adjusted and responded to changing political and social pressures and demands. The significance of Buchli's study goes far beyond the confines of Soviet-era Moscow or indeed the archaeology of the modern world. He questions the role and potential danger of social and archaeological theory of the totalizing kind: a natural response perhaps to the experience of the Narkofim Communal House as an exercise in Soviet social engineering. He poses fascinating questions about the relation between individual households and the state ideology, and he emphasizes the role of material culture studies in reaching an understanding of these processes. In the brief essay that opens this Review Feature, Victor Buchli outlines the principal aims and conclusions of An Archaeology of Socialism . The diversity of issues that the book generates is revealed in the series of reviews which follows, touching in particular upon the ways in which routines of daily life \u2014 archaeologically visible, perhaps, through the analysis of domestic space \u2014 relate to structures of authority in society as a whole." }, { "paper": "1595054788", "venue": "3880285", "year": "2002", "title": "dealing with disaster", "label": [ "2776608160" ], "author": [ "2122514833" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "catastrophe culture the anthropology of disaster susanna m hoffman and anthony oliver smith eds school of american research press santa fe 2002 james currey oxford 2002 324 pp 60 isbn 1 930618 14 x 45 isbn 0 85255 925 9 paper 24 95 isbn 1 930618 15 8 16 99 isbn 0 85255 926 7 the contributors discuss a variety of events bhopal the exxon valdez chernobyl mexican earthquakes drought in africa and in the andes the 1991 brush fire in oakland to explore how human actions and natural forces combine to turn hazards into disasters they also discuss how anthropology can help shape more effective responses to natural catastrophes", "title_raw": "Dealing with Disaster", "abstract_raw": "Catastrophe & Culture The Anthropology of Disaster.

Funerary Writings by Chen Liang (1143-1194) Translated by Beverly Bossler These three funerary odes describe how the funeral tablets of Chen Liang's mother's family came to be in his care, how his mother and her sister decided to marry their children together, and how his sister sustained her natal household during a period of family calamity. Along with the commemorative biography that follows, they open important windows on domestic life and family values during the period following the fall of the Northern Song. 5. \"The Customs of Various Barbarians\" by Li Jing (1251 - ?) Translated by Jacqueline M. Armijo-Hussein This description of minority peoples from a Yuan dynasty official's record of his experiences in Yunnan province illustrates how views of gender relations and especially sexual practices served as a measure of the level of civilization among non-Han populations. 6. Selected Writings by Luo Rufang (1515 - 1588) Translated by Yu-Yin Cheng In these writings scholar and philosopher Luo Rufang celebrates women who pursue intellectual and philosophical interests. He also champions the virtue of motherly nurturance and love, which he considered as important as the central Confucian virtues of filial piety and brotherly respect. 7. Final Instructions by Yang Jisheng (1516 - 1555) Translated by Beverly Bossler Composed in prison, these notes instruct Yang's wife and sons how to get along without him. His foremost concerns are three: that his family not become the subject of ridicule, that his sons get along with one another, and that his wife--who had already proven herself the moral conscience of the family--not commit suicide. 8. \"Record of Past Karma\" by Ji Xian (1614 - 1683) Translated by Grace S. Fong This autobiographical essay by the woman poet Ji Xian , with its powerful descriptions of dreams, visions, and personal illness, is unusually self-revelatory of the tensions between her personal religious desires and her obligations to her family. 9. \"Letter to My Sons\" by Gu Ruopu (1592 - ca.1681) Translated by Dorothy Ko Having seen to it that both sons married capable and learned wives, Hangzhou poet Gu Ruopu, virtuous widow and matriarch of the Huang family, decided to divide the family property and establish separate households for them. In this letter Gu outlines her support for the Confucian ideal of familism, but admonishes her sons to recognize women's indispensable roles in the male-centered kinship system. 10. Personal Letters in Seventeenth-Century Epistolary Guides Translated by Kathryn Lowry The large number of epistolary guides and collected letters published in the late Ming include models for letters to family members as well as a few examples of love letters and provide a unique view of the social universe of that period. The love letters translated here show how this genre can be read as a sort of epistolary fiction and raise questions about how people might have consulted letter-writing manuals for reasons beyond social etiquette. 11. Letters by Women of the Ming-Qing Period Translated by Yu-Yin Cheng These short letters, written in the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries, reveal the erudition and wit as well as the spiritual and aesthetic sensibilities of highly educated upper-class women. 12. Selected Short Works by Wang Duanshu (1621 - after 1701) Translated by Ellen Widmer These short selections from the works of one of the earliest anthologists of women's writings display the extraordinary range and breadth of her learning, while revealing her personal, aesthetic, and scholarly sensibilities. 13. Two Ghost Stories from Liaozhai's Records of the Strange by Pu Songling (1640 - 1715) Translated by Judith T. Zeitlin The ghost story, authored by men and narrated from the male point of view, is one of the privileged spaces in Chinese literature for exploring fantasies of gender and sexuality. Such tales often involve a passionate affair between a young scholar and a beautiful female ghost who possesses a surprising degree of corporeality. The two late imperial tales translated here share two related themes: the power of love to triumph over death and the cosmic power of male generativity. 14. Two Biographies by Zhang Xuecheng (1738 - 1801) Translated by Susan Mann These biographies by one of the most distinguished scholars of the Qing period breathe life into views of women that are sometimes dismissed as mere conventions or stereotypes. In both texts we see, through men's eyes, how women took responsibility for setting the standards to measure and criticize men's behavior. 15. Poems on Tea-Picking Translated by Weijing Lu These poems about women at work, written mostly by men and spanning the dynasties from Tang through Qing, display the varied meanings of women's work in the poetic imagery of elite writers and point to the ways in which women as literary subjects supplied a ceaseless range of possibilities for inventive poets over time. The poems also show the subtle relationship between poetry as social criticism and poetry as aesthetic performance in the culture of the late imperial elite. 16. Drinking Wine and Reading \"Encountering Sorrow\": A Reflection in Disguise by Wu Zao (1799 - 1862) Translated by Sophie Volpp In this dramatic tableau the playwright casts herself as the sole speaker. She poses before a portrait of herself cross-dressed as a male scholar and sings to the portrait a sequence of lyrics describing her frustrations as a woman of talent. The text concludes that none but her cross-dressed self-image is a match for the writer herself. Hangzhou poet and official Chen Wenshu, a noted patron of female writers, wrote a collection of poems celebrating this work. 17. A Brief Record of the Eastern Ocean by Ding Shaoyi (fl. 1847) Translated by Emma Jinhua Teng During his eight-month stay in Taiwan in 1847 Ding Shaoyi wrote the Brief Record, which treats sixteen topics, among them: taxes, schools, coastal defense, local products, \"savage\" villages, \"savage\" customs, and marvels. When he returned to Taiwan in 1871 he appended new material to each item in his original account. The passage translated here is Ding's 1871 supplement to his original entry titled \"Savage Customs.\" 18. The \"Eating Crabs\" Youth Book Translated by Mark C. Elliott This anonymous bilingual text, in Manchu and Chinese, reflects the complex ethnic picture in late imperial China, particularly in and around Beijing. Youth books were a form of oral performance very popular in the Qing capital. In this particular one, the story is told of a hapless Manchu bannerman and his shrewish Han Chinese wife who run afoul of a pot of feisty crabs.

There was no more high-profile commentary on this subject than Nikita Mikhalkov\u2019s Oscar-winning Burnt by the Sun (1994). In its mise-en-scene this film is a Chekhovian ensemble piece: a family assembles at its country house, but soon the air is thick with tension as long-standing animosities and disagreements are discharged into the atmosphere. Conflicts\u2014along social, generational, and emotional fault lines\u2014threaten vaguely, but persistently, to erupt into acrimonious skandal. But this is no cherry orchard. Rather, it is a dacha owned by a family from the prerevolutionary Moscow intelligentsia\u2014the older generation remembers receiving here such illustrious guests as Shaliapin and Rakhmaninov\u2014that has now been incorporated into a settlement for artists, writers, performers, and musicians (the acronym, KhLAM, spells a Russian word meaning \u201cjunk\u201d). The daughter of the family, Marusia, has married an Old Bolshevik and civil war hero, Kotov, a rough-hewn national celebrity. This domestic milieu provides the setting for the entrance of the other main character, Mitia, a former sweetheart of Marusia, who, after compromising himself by siding with the Whites, was lured into becoming a Bolshevik agent. Now, in 1936, he is working for the NKVD and, as is revealed in the denouement, has been given the task of arresting Kotov, who is to fall victim to the next wave of the Terror. The film was deservedly admired for its fine acting and high production values. But, like so much of Mikhalkov\u2019s work, it aims for rather more than that, implying nothing less than an interpretation of modern Russian history and society. The broad-shouldered, potent, heroic, nationally rooted, ultimately martyred man of the people (Kotov) stands in opposition to the opportunist, cowardly, villainous, slightly built, childless cosmopolitan intellectual (Mitia). Kotov\u2019s manly qualities are in further contrast to the almost painfully Chekhovian family into which he has entered by marriage.

By marrying epigraphy and death, the contributors to this collection hope to encourage that wider audience to consider the importance of inscribed tombstones. The book opens with an introduction to the ways in which these funerary monuments can illuminate the society and history of Greece and Rome. Subsequent chapters explore such diverse topics as fifth-century funerary sculpture, the commemoration of infants, social and ethnic identity and the relevance of epigraphical corpora. Inscribed tombstones shed light on almost every area of ancient life, ranging from the personal to the political, economic and religious. Epigraphy is the fascinating legacy in stone of the men, women and children of antiquity." }, { "paper": "2275704428", "venue": "164398212", "year": "2002", "title": "si\u00e2n echard arthurian narrative in the latin tradition cambridge studies in medieval literature 36 cambridge eng cambridge university press 1998 pp xi 256 69 95", "label": [ "95407459", "74916050" ], "author": [ "2109846107" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Si\u00e2n Echard, Arthurian Narrative in the Latin Tradition .

Perhaps the most dramatic example of this can be found in Hollywood itself\u2014in film and television (often regarded as the apex of U.S. popular culture). Since at least the middle 1930s, stars and their vehicles have added legitimacy, luster, and funding to progressive and radical causes. Not only Charlie Chaplin, John Garfield, Gregory Peck, Frank Sinatra (sometimes), Humphrey Bogart, and Katharine Hepburn, but also Lucille Ball, Judy Holliday, Marilyn Monroe, and Danny Kaye, and on some issues Rita Hayworth, Betty Davis, Kirk Douglas, Burt Lancaster, and Robert Ryan, not to mention character actors like Jack Gilford, Zero Mostel, Sam Jaffe, Morris Camovsky, Marsha Hunt, Howard da Silva, Jeff Corey, John Randolph, and Anne Revere, could all be counted upon until things got risky (and for most of the last group in particular, far beyond). Hundreds more writers, directors, editors, choreographers, and cinematographers, including some of the most prestigious in the business, were more often directly involved in left politics, although their names were never widely recognized.

This paper examines these relationships through an analysis of mobility and settlement population in the late precontact and early colonial Chesapeake region of the eastern U.S. Drawing on previous accumulations research and two strong archaeological cases that provide critical values, the study develops measures of relative sedentariness and ceramic-discard behavior that can be used to model behavior at sites without stratified deposits or well-preserved architecture. Application of this model to the James River Valley of Virginia produces more reliable dales for the inception of village communities, several centuries following the adoption of maize-based horticulture in the region. The analysis also suggests that the fundamental nature of residential settlement changed dramatically in the study area after A.D. 1200 with the emergence of a settlement hierarchy including relatively large communities with lengthy occupation durations. The creation of a new cultural landscape containing substantial villages, combined with related changes in household and community organisation, is central to the origins and development of the Powhatan paramountcy, one of North America's archetypal complex chiefdoms." }, { "paper": "2116675688", "venue": "203378611", "year": "2002", "title": "paulinus of nola life letters and poems by dennis e trout the transformation of the classical heritage 27 berkeley university of california press 1999 xx 326 pp 55 00 cloth", "label": [ "74916050" ], "author": [ "2434780841" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Paulinus of Nola: Life, Letters, and Poems .

De la Pryme was a learned and inquiring man. He was a model virtuoso, author of Hull's first history and a regular contributor to the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society. In addition, he kept a diary. As a diarist, his main interest was in public affairs. This is a typical entry, from 10 October 1696:OCTOB. 10 Things are very quiet yet, but the Jacobites are of undaunted spirits, and continue their high, impudent, treasonable talkings and discourses, almost as much as ever.New money beginns to grow plentyfull, there is no one almost but has some little quantity. All the mints are now in motion, and they give satisfaction to the country. (de la Pryme, ed. Jackson, 1870, p. 111)On the same day, an acquaintance of de la Pryme in Leeds was writing in his own diary. His name was Ralph Thoresby. At first glance Mr Thoresby seems an unlikely companion for a clergyman or a virtuoso. Thoresby at that time was a leader of Leeds's Presbyterian community. This meant that he was barred from civic posts and university education (although not long after this date he conformed to the Church of England). De la Pryme was a servant of the national church; Thoresby defied it. De la Pryme was a professional man; Thoresby came from a family of merchants. Nonetheless Thoresby and de la Pryme moved in the same antiquarian and Royal Society circles; and as antiquarians they had much in common. Thoresby, like de la Pryme, wrote the first history of his town, and he also made a number of contributions to the Philosophical Transactions.This is Thoresby's diary entry for that October day in 1696:10 morn read Annots. yn at both mills, afte within writing, but spent ye late part of day abroad wth. ye Dr. & Salters about business, so part of Even, rest wth dear Mr. Ib. read Anns. (RLC MS NKS 2935, p. 176)The two men clearly had different ideas about what to put in a diary, and how to put it. De la Pryme records confident opinions on matters of public interest and expresses them in bold generalisations. Thoresby on the other hand records details about his own life which have no impact on anyone else, and yet does not venture to express an opinion on them. Of course different people write different diaries; but it is argued in this article that the difference between these diaries goes beyond that. In fact, there are good reasons for saying they are different in kind, that they belong to different genres.The Pious DiaryIt is argued here that Thoresby's diary is different from de la Pryme's because it belongs to a wider genre which can be called the pious diary. The word 'genre' is used advisedly. Diarists were likely to have been influenced in the same way as other writers - by what they read. Tom Webster has presented evidence that earlier in the seventeenth century pious diaries were confidential, and often burned on the diarist's death. Although he observes considerable similarity between diaries, he argues that this cannot be because they were circulated (Webster, 1996, pp. 39, 49). Webster's conclusions on the confidentiality of diaries however, cannot be applied to Thoresby's diary at the end of the century, nor to many of the diaries of his peers and associates.In Thoresby's circle, many, if not all, diaries were written in the knowledge and expectation that they would be circulated after death, and perhaps before. In this respect, diaries seem in some cases to have been treated rather like the MS collections of poetry and other writings circulated among families and friends, described by Margaret Ezell (Ezell, 1999; Ezell's book includes a section on Thoresby's struggle to have his first book printed). Thoresby knew of and read other people's diaries throughout his life (1658-1725). In the Leeds of his childhood, for example, there was Castilion Morris's diary. Morris was a member of the Leeds Corporation during the Civil War, who kept 'a Journall of Letters & Memorandums of matters of moment, Publick & private begun 14 Dece 1687' (these are printed in the Yorkshire Archaeological and Topographical Journal, 10 (1889), 159-64). \u2026" }, { "paper": "1974085549", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2002", "title": "reviews of books a history of water in modern england and wales john hassan", "label": [ "195244886", "166957645" ], "author": [ "2319115560" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Reviews of Books:A History of Water in Modern England and Wales John Hassan", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2469853482", "venue": "95667342", "year": "2003", "title": "two paths to equality alice paul and ethel m smith in the era debate 1921 1929 by amy e butler albany state university of new york press 2002 x 167 pp cloth 54 50 isbn 0 7914 5319 7 paper 17 95 isbn 0 7914 5320 0", "label": [ "2778222013" ], "author": [ "2153507344" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Two Paths to Equality: Alice Paul and Ethel M.

In the last third of the fourth century, the cult of martyrs and their relics was promoted by Damasus of Rome, Paulinus of Nola and Ambrose of Milan, but remained controversial in the western churches. Roman law forbade the disturbance of dead bodies, especially where magic was suspected. Christians as well as non-Christians were repelled by the veneration of bone, bloodstains and dust, and by the extreme asceticism that was often associated with relic-cult. The sermon Victricius preached, welcoming to Rouen a gift of relics from Ambrose, is here interpreted as an attempt at cultural translation. Victricius deploys a late-antique education in rhetoric and philosophy to make relic-cult and asceticism acceptable. Like many others, he uses the adventus, the ceremonial reception of a visiting emperor or his deputy by local aristocracy and officials, as an analogy for the reception of relics by ascetics and clergy. Exceptionally, he equates corporeal relics with the presence of God; but his unique theology of relics was lost to view." }, { "paper": "2440107464", "venue": "95667342", "year": "2003", "title": "a diplomatic revolution algeria s fight for independence and the origins of the post cold war era by matthew connelly new york oxford university press 2002 xviii 400 pp 45 00 isbn 0 19 514513 5", "label": [ "6303427" ], "author": [ "3152291136" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "A Diplomatic Revolution: Algeria's Fight for Independence and the Origins of the Post-Cold War Era.

The size, internal fittings, and especially the finds of the Hellenistic building-including an archive represented by 2043 stamped clay sealings-indicate that this was a public administrative center, probably housing either the governor of the eparchy of Galilee or the strategos of Coele-Syria. The finds show compelling affinities with the material culture of Hellenistic Phoenicia with a considerable admixture of Greek culture. Some parts of the building were reoccupied shortly after its abandonment by people living in a much less grandiose manner, but whose material culture also reflects Hellenistic Phoenician remains. These discoveries are relevant to larger historical issues, including the Persian administration of the region from the fifth century B.C.E., and relations between the Tyrians, the Seleucids, and the Jews in the first half of the second century B.C.E. The nature and timing of the abrupt dissolution of this administrative base just after the middle of the second century B.C.E. reflect significant changes in the balance of power in the region, which we believe are relevant to contemporary developments in Judaea." }, { "paper": "2161113333", "venue": "85907422", "year": "2003", "title": "belgian settlement and society in the indiana rust belt", "label": [ "166957645", "53553401" ], "author": [ "2161091510" ], "reference": [ "807479", "608807522", "619913596", "620576711", "1558578663", "1572948916", "1968920491", "1981825001", "1992161042", "1997690757", "2000720131", "2014100303", "2015705171", "2027002302", "2030420638", "2040359832", "2045100147", "2046995515", "2071917904", "2074729154", "2081187870", "2081354997", "2082670281", "2085030197", "2103894374", "2104877756", "2156501379", "2312378064", "2314629022", "2316366776", "2318133686", "2320627236", "2322972290", "2323559646", "2327987329", "2334280989", "2497126802", "2752727232", "3036051595" ], "abstract": "at first glance the industrial city of mishawaka near the northern border of indi ana appears to be ethnically homogeneous closer examination however reveals the rich ethnic heritage of mishawaka as it does in so many other rust belt cities from pittsburgh to chicago one of the most fascinating of these immigrant stories is the rise of belgian town on mishawaka s southwest side this study examines residential commercial and social pat terns of this evolving ethnic community during the first three decades of the twentieth cen tury although industrial jobs attracted immigrants to the city creation of a flemish catholic church provided the foundation on which to build a tightly knit belgian community key words ethnic geography flemish indiana mishawaka rust belt d owntown mishawaka indiana reflects an aging rust belt city several store fronts have stood empty for the past two decades as commercial development and office complexes shifted the city s focus farther north to take advantage of access to interstate highways where the old downtown meets the southern banks of the saint joseph river an enormous lot awaits redevelopment this empty space was left behind when the abandoned uniroyal plant formerly the mishawaka woolen manu facturing company was finally demolished in the summer of 2000 people on the downtown sidewalks appear to be ethnically homogeneous like most of indiana s population many of the city s residents are of a long forgotten mixture of german english irish and scottish heritage but mishawaka like other rust belt cities be tween pittsburgh and chicago has many stories to tell of the diverse immigrants who came to work in the city s burgeoning industries in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries one of the most fascinating of these stories is the forma tion of mishawaka s belgian town on the city s southwest side this study illustrates the morphology of an urban immigrant population s residential commercial and social patterns as it evolved from a scattering of resi dences in 1900oo to a mature ethnic community thirty years later the morphology is documented through the use of manuscript census records city directories obituaries newspaper articles local histories and field observations the study contributes a new chapter to the story of belgians in the united states previously scholars interested in belgian settlement focused on walloons in new york bayer 1925 and wisconsin laatsch and calkins 1992 and on flemish rural settlements in southwestern minnesota pansaerts 1989 amato 199o in contrast i explore an evolving community of flemish immigrants and their children in an urban indus", "title_raw": "BELGIAN SETTLEMENT AND SOCIETY IN THE INDIANA RUST BELT", "abstract_raw": "At first glance the industrial city of Mishawaka, near the northern border of Indi- ana, appears to be ethnically homogeneous. Closer examination, however, reveals the rich ethnic heritage of Mishawaka, as it does in so many other Rust Belt cities from Pittsburgh to Chicago. One of the most fascinating of these immigrant stories is the rise of Belgian Town, on Mishawaka's southwest side. This study examines residential, commercial, and social pat- terns of this evolving ethnic community during the first three decades of the twentieth cen- tury. Although industrial jobs attracted immigrants to the city, creation of a Flemish Catholic church provided the foundation on which to build a tightly knit Belgian community. Key- words: ethnic geography, Flemish, Indiana, Mishawaka, Rust Belt. D owntown Mishawaka, Indiana, reflects an aging Rust Belt city. Several store- fronts have stood empty for the past two decades as commercial development and office complexes shifted the city's focus farther north to take advantage of access to interstate highways. Where the old downtown meets the southern banks of the Saint Joseph River, an enormous lot awaits redevelopment. This empty space was left behind when the abandoned Uniroyal plant (formerly the Mishawaka Woolen Manu- facturing Company) was finally demolished in the summer of 2000. People on the downtown sidewalks appear to be ethnically homogeneous. Like most of Indiana's population, many of the city's residents are of a long-forgotten mixture of German, English, Irish, and Scottish heritage. But Mishawaka, like other Rust Belt cities be- tween Pittsburgh and Chicago, has many stories to tell of the diverse immigrants who came to work in the city's burgeoning industries in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. One of the most fascinating of these stories is the forma- tion of Mishawaka's Belgian Town, on the city's southwest side. This study illustrates the morphology of an urban immigrant population's residential, commercial, and social patterns as it evolved from a scattering of resi- dences in 1900oo to a mature ethnic community thirty years later. The morphology is documented through the use of manuscript census records, city directories, obituaries, newspaper articles, local histories, and field observations. The study contributes a new chapter to the story of Belgians in the United States. Previously, scholars interested in Belgian settlement focused on Walloons in New York (Bayer 1925) and Wisconsin (Laatsch and Calkins 1992) and on Flemish rural settlements in southwestern Minnesota (Pansaerts 1989; Amato 199o). In contrast, I explore an evolving community of Flemish immigrants and their children in an urban indus-" }, { "paper": "174031396", "venue": "112292781", "year": "2003", "title": "historical archaeology in the antipodes 2250", "label": [ "507827637", "53553401" ], "author": [ "2159443525", "122957086" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Historical Archaeology in the Antipodes: 2250", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2507844762", "venue": "94891645", "year": "2003", "title": "budge s egypt a classic 19th century travel guide by e a wallis budge mineola new york dover 2001 pp xv 311 10 95 paperback", "label": [ "74916050" ], "author": [ "2156059024" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Budge\u2019s Egypt: A Classic 19th\u2010Century Travel Guide.

Because large buried cultural landscapes can now be revealed, it is argued that an alternative perspective on regional or landscape archaeology may be possible because space can be viewed in terms of tens of hectares as opposed to the tens of square meters typical of archaeological excavations. Moreover, by placing focus on such buried features as dwellings, storage facilities, public structures, middens, fortifications, trails, or garden spaces that are not commonly revealed through most contemporary surface inspection methods, a richer view of archaeology, the past, and cultural landscapes can be achieved. Archaeo-geophysical surveys can also play an important role in Cultural Resource Management (CRM) contexts as feature discovery tools for focusing expensive excavations, thereby reducing the amount needed and lowering costs.

Unfortunately, no scholarship has addressed the means by which victims of the war survived this conflict. This article uses microhistorical evidence from the 1641 depositions for county Cavan to reconstruct the range of possible survival strategies. Philip MacMulmore O'Reilly, a member of the Irish gentry and kinsman to the Cavan rebels, balanced support for the rebellion with attempts to assist endangered Anglo-Protestant settlers. Although deponents questioned O'Reilly's motives, they agreed that he was instrumental in protecting settlers. George Creichton, a Scottish minister and planter, provides a distinctly different example. Despite his religious views and politics, Creichton forged strong ties to neighbouring Irish before the rising. Although in danger, Creichton mobilized a network of friends, kin, and sympathetic neighbours to protect himself and to assist less fortunate Anglo-Protestant neighbours. These two examples reveal the wider existence of early seventeenth-century social relationships that crossed ethnic and religious lines. In the midst of the chaos of 1641, a significant number of settlers benefited from fragmentation in the rebel ranks and often built their survival strategies upon the social relationships that they had forged in more stable times." }, { "paper": "2069199463", "venue": "3880285", "year": "2003", "title": "politically correct or a bad decision", "label": [ "5616717" ], "author": [ "2352090664" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "in his article revisiting a 1930s scandal aacr to rename a prize news focus 25 april p 573 1 douglas starr describes some reprehensible actions by cornelius p rhoads a highly regarded cancer scientist and the originator of chemotherapy who died in 1959 in recognition of his many contributions to its field the american association for cancer research has named a prize in his memory highly coveted this prize has been awarded anually to outstanding young cancer researchers although i do not condone the lamentable statements made by rhoads in an unmailed letter while on a scientific mission in puerto rico i find the politically correct decision to remove his name from the prize at this late date no less inappropriate it so happens that richard wagner one of our greatest operatic composers was an incipient nazi a blatant antisemite and an unrepentant malefactor does his behavior justify a condemnation of his music or should we remove his name from our operatic programs would not such a belated retribution display an equally deplorable intolerance on our part 1 lookup doi 10 1126 science 300 5619 573", "title_raw": "Politically correct or a bad decision", "abstract_raw": "In his article \u201cRevisiting a 1930s scandal, AACR to rename a prize\u201d (News Focus, 25 April, p.

Despite a cluster of contrary indications, scholars have routinely interpreted the story of the three-year famine in 2 Sam 21:1-14 as an internally consistent, homogeneous narrative.1 This perception of the story may derive in part from its place as a link in 2 Sam 21-24, the chain of chapters closing the book of Samuel. Since Julius Wellhausen noted the palistrophe in chs. 21-24 over a century ago, this appendix compiled from disparate elements has tended to invite several kinds of literary approaches: structural analysis concerned primarily with its organization; interest in the lemmatic and thematic links governing its different parts; and a broader redactional view that seeks its meaning within the wider frameworks of the Succession Narrative, 2 Samuel, the complete book of Samuel, and the Deuteronomistic History.2 At least with regard to the Gibeonite episode, the focus on the literary shape and function of the appendix as a whole seems to have distracted scholars somewhat from the task of an internal literary analysis.3 Other studies, whether seeking literary, historical, or cultic significance in the story, by and large fall into one of two categories. Either they attempt to locate the episode as a complete unit within some broader context, such as the historical role played by Gibeon in ancient Israel, or they concentrate on an obscure matter within it, specifically, the manner and meaning of the deaths of the seven Saulides and the significance of Rizpah's actions.4 Of course, such a thumbnail sketch cannot do justice to the studies available, several of which have joined many interests under one rubric to yield a rich mine of analyses and ideas. However, they do all share in having failed to execute a careful literary-critical analysis, which, it turns out, could have led to the edited quality of the text. Two studies have in fact divided the text into sources, but not on the basis of defined, reusable criteria, on something beyond mere intuition.5 In one of the clearest, most comprehensive, yet most concise pieces available on identifying sources, Richard Friedman provides a detailed list of ten such criteria: doublets, terminology, contradictions, consistent characteristics of each group of texts, narrative flow, historical referents, linguistic classification, identifiable relationships among sources, references in other biblical books, and marks of editorial work.6 After applying them to the Pentatuech, he concludes compellingly: The strength of the identification of the four major sources of the Torah is not any single one of the categories enumerated. . . . Rather it is the convergence of all of these bodies of evidence that is the most powerful argument for this view of the Pentateuch (Friedman's italics).7 Werner Schmidt offers a more distilled programmatic outline for scholarly analysis of biblical texts: a) analysis of the text for possible literary unevenness or tension; b) alignment of the textual components obtained into the most likely story or plot lines, namely, not into fragments, which could not have existed independently; c) comparison with the immediate and farther contexts and, with that, fitting them into a broader flow; d) interpretation of the final form of the text.8 The investigation below of 2 Sam 21:1-14 will take its literary-critical cues specifically from disjunctures in both grammar and syntax, on one hand, and narrative flow, on the other. It will follow diction and theme, enlisting the often untapped resource of textual criticism, to establish two independent threads (section I), then relate each one to the larger book of Samuel (sections II-IV).9 Finally, it will assess how intertwining the two threads has had an impact on each one of them, from a variety of standpoints (section V). This analysis has relevance for understanding the methods by which ancient editors brought together multiple textual sources and for evaluating the emergent product. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2087844346", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2003", "title": "reviews of books yellowcake towns uranium mining communities in the american west michael a amundson", "label": [ "53553401", "166957645" ], "author": [ "2144701174" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Reviews of Books:Yellowcake Towns: Uranium Mining Communities in the American West Michael A.

We know that Cahokia was the center of production for large flint clay figurines and effigy pipes (Emerson and Hughes 2000). Similar Cahokia-style figures have been found in the Trans-Mississippi South and the Southeast. We investigated the material used to make these figures using a newly developed nondestructive PIMA SP spectroscopic technology to identify the stone and to determine their source location. These analyses proved that the figures were made of Missioui flint clay from quarries near St. Louis. We submit that Cahokia was the twelfth-century source for the production of these Cahokia-style figures. Outside of Cahokia the flint clay figures were primarily found in Caddoan mortuaries, reinforcing earlier evidence of a strong Cahokia-Caddoan connection. The available chronological and contextual information indicates the flint clay figures left Cahokia after it began to decline in the late thirteenth-century, through various mechanisms of extra-local exchange rather than as part of any systematic prestige-goods network. The association of these highly symbolic figures with Cahokia allows us to reevaluate the indigenous iconography and propose that many of the themes (e.g., fertility and warfare) that later appear in Eastern Woodlands native cosmology such as the Southeastern Ceremonial Complex were first codified here in the twelfth-century." }, { "paper": "2532443497", "venue": "114691300", "year": "2003", "title": "struggle and purpose in postwar japanese unionism by michael h gibbs berkeley university of california institute of east asian studies 2000 xii 322 pp 20 00 paper", "label": [ "6303427", "113684855" ], "author": [ "2486211058" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Struggle and Purpose in Postwar Japanese Unionism .

V ARIOUS GHOSTS HAVE HAUNTED THIS SPECIAL TOPIC. Caroline Weber's essay conjures the ghosts of slaves in Denis Diderot's Lefils naturel. Kari Lokke explores the way Germaine de Stael, Mary Shelley, and George Sand deploy tales of contact with the spirits of the dead to probe a nation's political unconscious, enlisting the dead to galvanize the present into revolutionary action. For Todd Samuel Presner, Hegel's grand sweep of world history is haunted by the ghosts of Jews written out of that history. That PMLA in its special topics has not always wanted to listen to the Spirit of Literature Past is unsurprising, for the desire to listen to history's ghosts is by no means universal. Stephen Greenblatt may have begun \"with the desire to speak with the dead,\" but over the years, many have begun with the desire not to. The Reformation, for example, worked to sever lines of communication with the dead, particularly in the form of prayers for their souls. The dead had once been part of the community, their memories kept fresh by gravestones and remembrance in prayer. In popular belief, the dead haunted the living as ghosts or watched them like an audience, as Shakespeare shows: \"the spirits of the wise sit in the clouds and mock us\" (Henry IV, Part 2 2.2.135); \"when I am in heaven,\" Henry VIII says of baby Elizabeth, \"I shall desire / To see what this child does\" (Henry VIII 5.4.68-69); asked \"what wert thou, if the King of Naples heard thee?\" Ferdinand replies, \"He does hear me\" (Tempest 1.2.434-36)-death having sharpened the king's sensory perception, the father can now hear his son at any time. One hardly needed history when the ancestors lived in the community. But the Reformation labored to oust ancestral ghosts. A favorite target was belief in purgatory, which reformers (Luther, Zwingli, Tyndale) assailed on economic grounds: praying for souls in" }, { "paper": "2072180581", "venue": "3091228", "year": "2003", "title": "origins of the anglophone problem southern cameroons 1922 1961 a constitutional history by v ictor j ulius n goh aldershot ashgate 2001 pp xv 218 40 isbn 0 7546 1401 8", "label": [ "195244886", "531593650" ], "author": [ "2172215451" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "ORIGINS OF THE ANGLOPHONE PROBLEM Southern Cameroons, 1922\u20131961: A Constitutional History .

However, despite the potential of the evidence and the significance of the subject, there has been little discussion of Roman fulling, and the contribution of M. Bradley in JRA 15 (2002) 21-44 is only the second to discuss Roman fullonicae in general. Bradley focuses on the cultural and economic context of fullones (fullers) and fullonicae in Roman society. Although his narrative will prove to be a useful contribution to the debate on Roman fulling, there are good reasons to question some of his conclusions. A major objection concerns the uniformity of his approach. His highly conceptualised profile of the context of Roman fulling underestimates possible regional and chronological variations as well as the multiform nature of human society. Furthermore, he relies too heavily on literary sources and uses epigraphy and material remains merely to illustrate his suggestions. This leads to an over-simplification of the complex relations between various types of data. As I will argue below, these methodological problems seriously undermine his statements about the economic nature of the Roman fullonica , the spatial context of fullonicae , and the social status of fullones ." }, { "paper": "2288183845", "venue": "173880072", "year": "2003", "title": "dance of the cranes crane symbolism at catalhoyuk and beyond", "label": [ "195244886" ], "author": [ "2125132689", "2311257212" ], "reference": [ "121864127", "297474283", "416914516", "596519110", "1493406191", "1516509533", "1522504838", "1568226262", "1575990263", "1616247879", "1925704363", "2050870235", "2075630393", "2108320566", "2197305768", "2258943972", "2297609167", "2330526463", "2491340209", "2795496159", "2796919881", "2797352576", "2798115803" ], "abstract": "in this article the authors reveal the symbolic role of cranes at neolithic catalhoyuk turkey worked bones of the common crane grus grus are interpreted as coming from a spread wing used in dances a ritual practice perhaps connected with the celebration of marriage", "title_raw": "Dance of the Cranes: Crane symbolism at \u00c7atalh\u00f6y\u00fck and beyond", "abstract_raw": "In this article, the authors reveal the symbolic role of cranes at Neolithic Catalhoyuk, Turkey.

In the queue Douglass noticed several of his fellow passengers from the Cunard liner Cambria, among them southerners, who had threatened to toss him overboard during the passage. As be wrote to William Lloyd Garrison, \"[O]f all the faces, expressive of chagrin, those of the Americans were preeminent. They looked as sour as vinegar, and as bitter as gall, when they found I was to be admitted on equal terms with themselves.\" The relative racial equality that Douglass encountered in the Old World alienated him from the United States. At the same time, the shared characteristics of white Americans, regardless of regional origins, became clear. Douglass did not distinguish the southern planters from the other Americans in the group outside Eaton Hall; he noted that they all regarded him with disdain. Indeed, in the eyes of white southerners as well, a European tour had the effect of bridging the political and cultural gaps that increasingly separated them from northerners at home. They did not, unlike Douglass, use the occasion to single out racism as a national characteristic, but touring Europe did inspire planters to reflect upon other qualities they shared with privileged folk like themselves. While European travel did not dissolve planters' loyalty to their section, it did intensify their sense of and pride in belonging to a national community. (1) A tour of Europe provoked such introspection partly because of the ritual nature of travel. Realizing they were engaged in a special enterprise, Americans abroad struggled to find an appropriate voice with which to communicate their experiences. Charles Edward Leverett Jr. articulated this sense of wonder when he wrote his father from the \"celebrated field\" of Waterloo, \"Did you ever think to get a line from that spot, & from your own son on that spot?\" (2) Some rituals, as Steven M. Stowe observes, \"[heighten] ... ordinary experience, creating a sense of being outside normal place and time.\" Travel to Europe was anything but ordinary, of course. Only the wealthy could afford even a brief stint abroad. Yet European travel was simultaneously \"a highly conventional activity.\" The literary critic William W. Stowe argues that it should be understood as \"a kind of secular ritual, complete with prescribed actions, promised rewards, and a set of quasi-scriptural writings.\" (3) Both an exceptional, highly meaningful event and a conventionalized practice, travel in Europe simultaneously allowed planters to situate themselves in the English genteel tradition of the Grand Tour, engaged them in a secular pilgrimage to quasi-sacred sites of Western culture, and empowered them selectively to differentiate themselves from this tradition in ways that affirmed their own nation's superiority. Travel, moreover, had the potential to reshape individual and group identity. As Victor Turner has argued, rituals do not merely affirm or demonstrate cultural verities. They are also transformative, promoting critical inquiry and personal discovery. European tourism, as a quintessentially rule-governed and culturally sanctioned activity, encouraged planting women and men to reflect upon their social and individual identities. Travel often reinforced prior assumptions, such as prejudices about national superiority, but it also led to critical reflection. (4) The introspective effects of travel were less pronounced in the colonial period, when southerners generally crossed the Atlantic to make business connections or for other utilitarian reasons. But planters in the nineteenth century more often traveled for pleasure. (5) If such a tour of Europe was in itself a ritual act, so were many of its constituent elements, particularly reading and writing, sightseeing, and sociability. Though these practices were highly differentiated, together the rituals of foreign travel prompted southerners to reflect on the relationship between their region and their nation. \u2026" }, { "paper": "231325529", "venue": "998751717", "year": "2003", "title": "the defeat of crassus and the just war", "label": [ "167388122", "195244886" ], "author": [ "2094859073" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "The Defeat of crassus and the just war.", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2322376000", "venue": "84742693", "year": "2003", "title": "m bettini classical indiscretions a millennial enquiry into the state of classics london duckworth 2001 pp 160 isbn 0 7156 2970 0 12 99", "label": [ "74916050" ], "author": [ "2107707453" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "M.

The art or practice of describing, or of delineating on a map or chart, particular regions, or districts; as distinguished from geography, taken as dealing with the earth in general, and (less distinctly) from topography, which deals with particular places, as towns, etc. (OED)Now of late that princely fabrick demolished and layd levell with the ground.1For followers of the King during the late 1640s, the world was an extremely disorientating place. It seemed that all the landmarks by which they were accustomed to situate themselves had shifted, and the very land they stood on challenged their understanding. The 'princely fabrick' of England was being torn apart. In Mildmay Fane's poetic survey of Northamptonshire, 'The Cosmography of this County', the poet complains about how the war has disrupted previously fixed spatial relationships and considers how this has led to the dislocation of identity and allegiance:It alwaies in former times stood distinguished by Longetude of east & West & yet held paralell ye Hundreds to all seruices but now it is Lancht wounded & cut through by so many miridian Lines hott fiery Zealots or rather bonte feux fire brands of Cisme & seeds men of all seditions yt it acknowledges noe bounding Tropicke but striues to Lay Leuell in ye Equator both Day & Night a Like. Pesant & Peer noe difference twixt Thrones & Coblers Bulkes2Fane contributes to a Royalist strand of positional or topographical poetry that decries the newly unstable latitudes. The traditional and set ways of mapping the nation have been challenged and upset by the myriad rules and structures of the Parliament. Geographical space itself has been sundered, and this is mapped onto social interaction. The body of state has been physically disrupted and 'wounded' by the weapons of civil war. The aristocracy have been reduced to the same status as the peasant; the boundaries and rules that formerly 'distinguished' between particular social spaces have been transgressed. Hierarchies and hegemonies have been attacked and destroyed, and this levelling now admits 'noe difference', emphasising an equality and egalitarianism anathema to Royalists: 'Pesant & Peer noe difference twixt Thrones & Coblers Bulkes'. This erosion of the crucial difference between class identity and structure is seen as physical and topographical.In his important study Forms of Nationhood, Richard Helgerson charts the progression of English chorographic writing in the early seventeenth century:Service to the country alone - with all the ambiguous meaning the word country then had: kingdom, nation, county, locality, countryside - was displacing service to king and country, just as the latter had displaced service to God and his church or service to one's liege lord regardless of country. The emergence of the country as a single, if variously significant, term for the focal point of allegiance parallels the emergence of the description, survey, or chorography as an autonomous and widely practiced genre.3Helgerson considers this practice of mapping Britain greatly significant in changing attitudes about allegiance and sense of royal authority; the surveys and maps he analyses betray an increasing disestablishment of the centrality of the monarch, emphasizing instead the importance of the people and the landscape in shaping national identity. Chorographic writings emphasized localities and district prerogative. Yet these particularities 'constantly remind us of the whole of which they are part and from which they take meaning even if only by difference' (p. 138). Helgerson further traces the movement from Elizabethan chorographic writing that was rooted in conceptions of place and etymology, towards genealogical accounts of localities. He notes, 'More and more, chorographies became books where country gentry can find their manors, monuments, and pedigrees copiously set forth. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2315373978", "venue": "84742693", "year": "2003", "title": "w clausen virgil s aeneid decorum allusion and ideology beitrage zur altertumskunde 162 munchen leipzig saur 2002 pp ix 255 isbn 3 598 77711 6 94 00 d nelis vergil s aeneid and the argonautica of apollonius rhodius arca classical and medieval texts papers and monographs 39 leeds francis cairns 2001 pp xii 519 isbn 0 905205 97 9 70 00", "label": [ "2780708138", "74916050" ], "author": [ "2939123472" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "W.

Tidbits about a wide range of human foibles were printed under headings that connected them to modern concerns. Sexual tales constituted a small but noteworthy portion of Trivia, joining anecdotes about excessive alcohol consumption, political corruption, and the curse of lawyers. \"NEVER LET A WOMAN IN YOUR LIFE\" included archival material on a \"lady of delicate dress\" who encouraged a drunken \"young coxcomb\" admiring her from behind to \"kiss the part you like best,\" a \"bachanalian\" festival of \"white and red men and women without distinction\" who danced and made \"sacrifices to Venus,\" and information about a cross-dressing \"LADY in Man's breeches.\" Two decades later, an entry on \"CAPITAL PUNISHMENT\" told of a raped woman who selected \"the SEVEREST punishment\" for the man who had raped her: marriage.' In the era of postmodern and feminist scholarship, we might deride these submissions as undertheorized and misogynist. But they had a clear theoretical foundation, grounded in the premise that there is humor to be found in human beings' eternal efforts to scratch the sexual itch. That itch was never the subject of historical inquiry; rather, it was presumed to be unchanging and collectively understood, today as well as 300 years ago. This is precisely why the sexual material-indeed, nearly all material-in Trivia was supposed to be funny: modern readers would be titillated by evidence of a familiar itch being scratched in frank, publicly visible, or deviant ways by the otherwise foreign people of the past. Contributions to Trivia rarely included scholarly treatment-the anecdotes were believed to speak for themselves. \"Nudge, nudge, wink, wink\" seemed to be the desired conclusion, and more often than not," }, { "paper": "1542176279", "venue": "137773608", "year": "2003", "title": "hi tech halo to mark central park s birthday", "label": [ "191920346" ], "author": [ "2102066290" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Hi-tech halo to mark Central Park's birthday", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2060619314", "venue": "176347361", "year": "2003", "title": "studies in welsh word formation review", "label": [ "2780769345" ], "author": [ "2628855366" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Studies in Welsh Word-Formation (review)", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2136283744", "venue": "164398212", "year": "2003", "title": "rosalynn voaden god s words women s voices the discernment of spirits in the writing of late medieval women visionaries york york medieval press in association with boydell and brewer and the centre for medieval studies university of york 1999 pp xi 204 75", "label": [ "170282758" ], "author": [ "2687149610" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Rosalynn Voaden, God's Words, Women's Voices: The Discernment of Spirits in the Writing of Late-Medieval Women Visionaries .

A thirsty crow comes across a flask half filled with water. As it tries to drink the water through the narrow opening of the flask, the crow realizes that it cannot do so because the water level is lower than its beak can reach. Because the crow is smart, it comes up with a solution. It collects pebbles, one by one, and drops them into the flask. Gradually, the flask is filled with pebbles and the water level rises enough for the crow to be able to comfortably drink. The crow drinks the water and, satisfied, flies away. The moral of the story: be smart like this crow. I was wondering if the authors of the recent Brevia \u201cShaping of hooks in New Caledonian crows\u201d (A. A. S. Weir et al. , 9 Aug., p. 981) could try out this experiment with a host of New Caledonian and perhaps some Indian crows.

Like Napoleon, who enlisted several dozen savants for his Egyptian expedition, the squadron commander, Commodore Matthew Calbraith Perry, recognized the historic importance of his voyage and brought along several scholars and curators to record the discovery. Perry\u2019s scientific aspirations notwithstanding, Japan was in fact anything but unknown to the new explorers. Since medieval times, ongoing scholarship regarding Japan had existed in Europe, and however dated and inaccurate, detailed accounts of its people and their customs were widely available to would-be explorers. For three centuries of actual contact, pre1853 European scholarship on Japan showed a growing interest in the racial make-up of the Japanese. As a whole, the racial perspectives on Japan were only an offshoot of a greater discourse, a new scientific worldview that placed mankind within a broader natural system and classified human variety in term of unequal races. The discourse on Japan is fascinating precisely because it was limited and delayed; moreover, it demonstrates bluntly how in a relatively short time the racial image of a group may change, or even be invented, regardless of the group\u2019s own actions. At the turn of the eighteenth century, adverse attitudes to any nonwhite peoples started to affect European attitudes to the Japanese, despite the fact that there was almost no contact between the nations.

The museums reviewed below, the Robben Island Prison Museum, the District Six Museum in Capetown, and the Kwa Muhle local history museum in Durban all make important contributions to this process." }, { "paper": "2463344725", "venue": "95667342", "year": "2004", "title": "behind the backlash white working class politics in baltimore 1940 1980 by kenneth d durr chapel hill university of north carolina press 2003 xiv 284 pp cloth 55 00 isbn 0 8078 2764 9 paper 19 95 isbn 0 8078 5433 6", "label": [ "52119013", "2779446402" ], "author": [ "2758285872" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Behind the Backlash: White Working-Class Politics in Baltimore, 1940\u20131980.

Interpreter Nicolas Perrot translated the message into a Native tongue for the representatives of fourteen Indian nations. He explained that St. Lusson had been ordered to their country \"to take possession, in the Kings name, of all the country inhabited and uninhabited ... to produce there the fruits of Christianity, and ... to confirm his Majesty's authority and the French dominion over it.\" This message was, furthermore, to be shared with the Illinois, the nations of the north, and still other peoples beyond the basin of the Great Lakes.1 Allouez and St. Lusson then conducted a carefully orchestrated pageant to seal the words through action. On a height overlooking the village, they planted a cross in the earth and, near it, a cedar pole on which they affixed the royal arms of France. Three times, voices raised, they claimed all the land between the Northern, Western, and Southern seas as part of the dominion of Louis XIV, His Most Christian Majesty, \"raising at each of the said three times a sod of earth whilst crying Vive le Roy, and making the whole of the assembly as well French as Indians repeat the same.\" The discharge of musketry punctuated the declarations. Pere Allouez explained the great powers, spiritual and temporal, that the cross and the cedar post represented. \"The whole ceremony was closed with a fine bonfire, which was lighted toward evening, and around which the Te Deum was sung to thank God, on behalf of those poor peoples, that they were now the subjects of so great and powerful a Monarch.\"2 The commission given to St. Lusson and the process by which he took possession of the country for the French king brought together the concerns of mercantilist development, religious imperialism, and continental empires." }, { "paper": "2090219404", "venue": "114691300", "year": "2004", "title": "beyond the rhetoric the economics of india s look east policy edited by grare frederic and mattoo amitabh vol 2 new delhi manohar 2003 240 pp 35 95 cloth", "label": [ "6303427" ], "author": [ "2678596654" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Beyond the Rhetoric: The Economics of India's Look East Policy .

The ossuary was reportedly found around Jerusalem. Previous examination suggested that the ossuary and the inscription were genuine. Our research focuses on the authenticity of the patina that covers the inscription (\u201cletters patina\u201d), based on its petrography and oxygen isotopic composition (\u03b418O). We compared the \u03b418O values of the letters patina from the James Ossuary, with the patina sampled from the uninscribed surfaces of the same item (\u201csurface patina\u201d), and with surface and letters patinas from legally excavated ossuaries from Jerusalem. In addition, the results were compared with \u03b418O values of carbonates formed naturally from groundwater in the Judean Mountains. Our results show that the petrography and the \u03b418O values of the letters patina of the James Ossuary differ significantly from the other patinas.

Like Balinese cockfights, muchongolo dancing contests in the Bushbuckridge municipality of South Africa offer metacommentary on everyday life and struggles in the form of a competition. Through the juxtaposition of movements and costumes with the actions of spectators outside the dance arena, and through the lyrics of songs, the dancers enact a confrontation between xintu (the past, tradition) and xilungu (the present, ways of whites). This war of images and words stimulates a critical consciousness about political economic processes that cannot be captured by simplistic labels such as acquiescence and resistance. (Dance, tradition, modernity, Shangaan, South Africa) ********** Few anthropological works are as controversial as Geertz's (1972a) famous study of the Balinese cockfight. Geertz wrote this essay to demonstrate the central postulates of his interpretive approach: that people's actions are signs intended to convey meanings, and that \"doing ethnography is like trying to read (in the sense of 'construct a reading of') a manuscript--foreign, faded, full of ellipses, incoherences, suspicious emendations, and tendentious commentaries, but written not in conventionalized graphs of sound but in transient examples of shared behavior\" (Geertz 1972a:106). He treats the cockfight as an acted text, as a Balinese reading of Balinese experience, a story they tell themselves about themselves. When men engage in cockfights, Geertz suggests, they lay their own public selves on the line through the medium of their cocks. The men engage in status rivalry, a \"deep play\" that transcends calculus of material loss and gain and is a matter of life and death. Geertz finds the text subversive and disturbing. The fight says that beneath the skin of every Balinese man is an animal and that the Balinese experience is really less about poise, grace, and charm, than about jealousy, envy, and brutality. The cockfight reveals these hidden values in the context of the terrible massacres that occurred in Bali after 1965. Critical commentators claim that Geertz does not really show how to access and interpret these unspoken Balinese values. Some of his interpretations, such as his comparisons to Macbeth, are clearly those of the metropolitan scholar rather than those of Balinese themselves (Crapanzano 1986). Second, commentators also question the appropriateness of Geertz's textual metaphor, arguing that it is problematic to collapse data of various sorts (direct observations, interviews, and secondary accounts) into the status of a single type, a text (Kuper 1999). Third, critics claim that whereas Geertz provides a thick description of the actual cockfight, his analysis of the context to which the event relates is thin. Geertz only pays lip service to the history of the cockfight and to the manner in which it relates to the changing political economy of Bali. His general theoretical approach, it is claimed, privileges meaning over all else and hardly speaks about politics, violence, and exploitation (Roseberry 1982 and Scholte 1990). While accepting these criticisms, this article warns against throwing out the proverbial baby with the bath water. Despite the shortcomings of Geertz's analysis, his concern with local representations and with allegory continues to be valid. This is especially pertinent in the study of South Africa, where a one-sided emphasis on political economy often eclipses the valuable insights to be derived from the analysis of cultural meanings (Gordon and Spiegel 1993). (2) This essay aims to demonstrate the validity of Geertz's concerns with reference to an analysis of muchongolo (lit., traditional) dance contests in Bushbuckridge, a remote magisterial district in the South African lowveld. Contra some of his staunch critics, we aim to show that a focus on genres of cultural performance such as cockfights and dances elucidates rather than conceals consciousness about political economic processes. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2319755904", "venue": "40982841", "year": "2004", "title": "the social context of technological change egypt and the near east 1650 1550 bc proceedings of a conference held at st edmund hall oxford 12 14 september 2000", "label": [ "3651065", "6303427" ], "author": [ "2494431179", "2662801731" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "The Social Context of Technological Change: Egypt and the Near East, 1650-1550 BC: Proceedings of a Conference Held at St. Edmund Hall, Oxford, 12-14 September 2000", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "1983203285", "venue": "203378611", "year": "2004", "title": "how the jesuits settled in new york a documentary account by thomas c hennessy s j new york fordham university press 2003 xii 286 pp 24 00 paper", "label": [ "74916050" ], "author": [ "1555926486" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "How the Jesuits Settled in New York: A Documentary Account .

By Timothy Insoll. Cambridge World Archaeology. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2003. Pp. xv, 470; 125 illustrations. $95.00 cloth, $37.00 paper. Timothy Insoll's detailed overview of the archaeology of Islam in sub-Saharan Africa can be read as both an encyclopedic summary of Iron Age archaeology as well as a challenge to begin thinking about the archaeology of religion and religious practice. In many ways, this volume is a much-needed and more nuanced revision of works such as J. S. Trimingham's regional summaries and overviews of the \"influence\" of Islam on sub-Saharan Africa.1 Additionally, it serves as a materialist companion to Nehemiah Levtzion and Randall Pouwels's recent History of Islam in Africa (2000). This ambitious volume focuses on the material correlates of Islam and Islamic practice, delineates what an archaeology of Islam might look like, and how it might be attempted. Insoll rightly indicates that although archaeologists might recognize that Islamic practice was one of most significant processes in the development of many African societies after the seventh century A.D. (through trade, politics, and the social processes of conversion), they have not yet found a cohesive language to investigate and express those themes. The bulk of the volume is a detailed assessment of the archaeology of Islam in seven regions (Ethiopia and the Horn of Africa, the Nilotic Sudan, the East African coast, the Western Sahel, the Central Sudan, the West African Sudan and forest, and \"the African interior\"). Insoll's regional summaries show dexterity in working with the minutiae of regional archaeological sequences. This work perhaps necessarily duplicates a considerable amount of the summarizing done by other fine texts, such as Graham Connah's African Civilizations (2002) and David W. Phillipson's African Archaeology (1993), although it includes numerous more recent findings. Whereas Connah uses archaeological data to demonstrate the processes of Iron Age urbanization and state formation, Insoll's particular contribution is to investigate the processes of religious transformation during similar periods. To accomplish this goal, Insoll first argues that an archaeology of Islam in sub-Saharan Africa requires an integration of multiple sources, including those of archaeology, ethnography, history, architecture, and linguistics. second, Insoll attempts to establish a material baseline for what he defines as two discrete religious traditions: Islam, and pre-Islamic \"African traditional religions.\" These archaeologically detectable manifestations include ritual architecture, diet, domestic spaces, burials, and art. Third, Insoll emphasizes that the archaeology of Islam must be investigated as a process, whereby Islam is contested, resisted, accepted, or integrated, thus bridging his concepts of African traditional religions and Islam. He is careful to note, however, that this is no simple process from one tradition to another, but one where peoples throughout the continent developed syncretic forms of religious practice that resulted in a plurality of Islams. Insoll favors trade between African populations and Muslim traders as the most common reason for conversion to Islam (as seen in the chapters on the Western Sahel, the Nilotic Sudan, the East African coast, and the West African Sudan). \u2026" }, { "paper": "1995277030", "venue": "60563828", "year": "2004", "title": "fa ti fan british naturalists in qing china science empire and cultural encounter xii 238 pp cambridge massachusetts and london harvard university press 2004 32 95", "label": [ "2778495208", "195244886", "191935318" ], "author": [ "2652373956" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "FA-TI FAN: British Naturalists in Qing China: Science, Empire, and Cultural Encounter. xii, 238 pp. Cambridge, Massachusetts and London: Harvard University Press, 2004. \u00a332.95.", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2342344366", "venue": "95667342", "year": "2004", "title": "rivers edens empires lewis and clark and the revealing of america and beyond lewis and clark the army explores the west", "label": [ "195244886" ], "author": [ "2164760655" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "\u201cRivers, Edens, Empires: Lewis and Clark and the Revealing of America;\u201d and \u201cBeyond Lewis and Clark: The Army Explores the West,\u201d", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2330349018", "venue": "34864311", "year": "2004", "title": "demography and cultural evolution how adaptive cultural processes can produce maladaptive losses the tasmanian case", "label": [ "530175646", "166957645" ], "author": [ "2121302573" ], "reference": [ "85835877", "229041738", "373007378", "567061380", "583652906", "584119098", "595565218", "644639925", "651118845", "658824834", "1503023806", "1536881062", "1540602015", "1551911640", "1606802182", "1644240647", "1811781384", "1966931811", "1972470456", "1974333867", "1974454212", "1978301340", "1989020845", "1991102410", "1994420276", "2000737472", "2003112330", "2008571672", "2018672817", "2037589798", "2040376523", "2045565604", "2047647995", "2056140704", "2057164744", "2058409334", "2060822850", "2075519603", "2090587634", "2091416687", "2093280648", "2096334794", "2118125849", "2127150322", "2157639208", "2160481859", "2165287823", "2249883498", "2316012851", "2325901216", "2581320081" ], "abstract": "a combination of archeological and ethnohistorical evidence indicates that over an approximately 8 000 year period from the beginning of the holocene until european explorers began arriving in the eighteenth century the societies of tasmania lost a series of valuable skills and technologies these likely included bone tools cold weather clothing hafted tools nets fishing spears barbed spears spear throwers and boomerangs to address this puzzle and the more general question of how human cognition and social interaction can generate both adaptive cultural evolution and maladaptive losses of culturally acquired skills this paper constructs a formal model of cultural evolution rooted in the cognitive details of human social learning and inference the analytical results specify the conditions for differing rates of adaptive cultural evolution and reveal regimes that will produce maladaptive losses of particular kinds of skills and related technologies more specifically the results suggest that the relatively sudden reduction in the effective population size the size of the interacting pool of social learners that occurred with the rising ocean levels at the end of the last glacial epoch which cut tasmania off from the rest of australia for the ensuing ten millennia could have initiated a cultural evolutionary process that 1 kept stable or even improved relatively simple technological skills and 2 produced an increasing deterioration of more complex skills leading to the complete disappearance of some technologies and practices this pattern is consistent with the empirical record in tasmania beyond this case i speculate on the applicability of the model to understanding the variability in rates of adaptive cultural evolution", "title_raw": "Demography and cultural evolution: How adaptive cultural processes can produce maladaptive losses: The Tasmanian case", "abstract_raw": "A combination of archeological and ethnohistorical evidence indicates that, over an approximately 8,000-year period, from the beginning of the Holocene until European explorers began arriving in the eighteenth century, the societies of Tasmania lost a series of valuable skills and technologies. These likely included bone tools, cold-weather clothing, hafted tools, nets, fishing spears, barbed spears, spear-throwers, and boomerangs. To address this puzzle, and the more general question of how human cognition and social interaction can generate both adaptive cultural evolution and maladaptive losses of culturally acquired skills, this paper constructs a formal model of cultural evolution rooted in the cognitive details of human social learning and inference. The analytical results specify the conditions for differing rates of adaptive cultural evolution, and reveal regimes that will produce maladaptive losses of particular kinds of skills and related technologies. More specifically, the results suggest that the relatively sudden reduction in the effective population size (the size of the interacting pool of social learners) that occurred with the rising ocean levels at the end of the last glacial epoch, which cut Tasmania off from the rest of Australia for the ensuing ten millennia, could have initiated a cultural evolutionary process that (1) kept stable or even improved relatively simple technological skills, and (2) produced an increasing deterioration of more complex skills leading to the complete disappearance of some technologies and practices. This pattern is consistent with the empirical record in Tasmania. Beyond this case, I speculate on the applicability of the model to understanding the variability in rates of adaptive cultural evolution." }, { "paper": "2092011200", "venue": "114691300", "year": "2004", "title": "via peking back to manchester britain the industrial revolution and china by peer vries leiden research school of asian african and amerindian studies leiden university 2003 ii 109 pp 17 paper", "label": [ "191935318", "517468935", "195244886" ], "author": [ "2573264591" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Via Peking Back to Manchester: Britain, the Industrial Revolution, and China .

Where did they come from and how long ago? Did they have a history, and would they have a future? Questions such as these dominated intellectual life in the United States during the nineteenth century. And for many Americans, such questions about the original inhabitants of their homeland inspired a flurry of historical investigation, scientific inquiry, and heated political debate. \"History's Shadow\" traces the struggle of Americans trying to understand the people who originally occupied the continent claimed as their own. Steven Conn considers how the question of the Indian compelled Americans to abandon older explanatory frameworks for sovereignty like the Bible and classical literature and instead develop new ones. Through their engagement with Native American language and culture, American intellectuals helped shape and define the emerging fields of archaeology, ethnology, linguistics, and art. But more important, the questions posed by the presence of the Indian in the United States forced Americans to confront the meaning of history itself, both that of Native Americans and their own: how it should be studied, what drove its processes, and where it might ultimately lead. The encounter with Native Americans, Conn argues, helped give rise to a distinctly American historical consciousness. A work of enormous scope and intellect, \"History's Shadow\" will speak to anyone interested in Native Americans and their profound influence on our cultural imagination. \"History s Shadow\" is an intelligent and comprehensive look at the place of Native Americans in Euro-American s intellectual history. . . .

The growing of flax requires large quantities of water, a need that was supplied by the Nile. This supply was abundant in normal years and limited when the Nile waters receded. oAyy a sh b.

He writes: \u201cIf, Heaven forbid, the boats have been lost, delay their sale (that of the loads of flax) until information reaches you as to the rising of the waters (of the Nile).\u201d Also, Nehorai b.

I remember really squinting at the pages, trying both to read every word of the play and to see it on a stage in my mind. When I finished, I was convinced I had read the dialogue to a painting. What confused me was whether the painting existed before the play or whether Beckett was try ing to create it in the play's performance. I was in graduate school in the early 1980s, when \"both/and\" was the common response to many lingering questions. I realized I could conclude both that there was a real painting behind Beckett's play and that each performance painted a new one. But even as I tried to console myself with this plenitude, I found it an annoying solution. While I was not then aware of a particular painting that corresponded to what I saw while reading, I nonetheless believed the playwright was referring to something specific, material, and real. I began to read the critical litera ture on Beckett (of which I was totally ignorant when I read Godot on the floor of my dorm) and was happy to learn that many others thought that he had a painting in mind when writing the play. These critics nom inated several paintings, and I dutifully went off to explore each con tender. But none came close to the one I saw when reading. I vowed to keep looking and not to write about Beckett until I found the painting. And so it went for almost twenty years. (I am leaving out a few details.) Yet my love for Beckett was always there before me, as was my promise not to write about him until I had found the painting I had seen. As critical interest in Beckett grew after his death in 1989, the nomina tions of specific paintings as the source for Godot increased. I learned that he included a copy of Caspar David Friedrich's painting Two Men Contemplating the Moon in his production notebook for Godot and that he told Ruby Cohn in 1975 that a slightly different Friedrich painting, Man and Woman Observing the Moon, \"was the source for Waiting for PEGGY PHELAN" }, { "paper": "2469927387", "venue": "95667342", "year": "2004", "title": "sounds of reform progressivism and music in chicago 1873 1935 by derek vaillant chapel hill university of north carolina press 2003 xiv 401 pp cloth 59 95 isbn 0 8078 2807 6 paper 19 95 isbn 0 8078 5481 6", "label": [ "2779446402", "52119013" ], "author": [ "2024757382" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Sounds of Reform: Progressivism and Music in Chicago, 1873\u20131935.

Wayne was a cheerful optimist, a trait that served him well. Life did not start easily for him. He was raised on a small cattle ranch in central Montana that went bottom-up during the Great Depression. Following his father's early death he worked his way through the University of Montana, where he met and became a lifelong friend of Senator Mike Mansfield. His bachelor's degree in history only qualified him for a position as an \"under clerktypist\" in the Department of Agriculture in 1937; he was promoted to \"assistant clerk, historical\" in 1940. But Wayne had another purpose for coming to Washington: to start graduate work and become a college teacher. He received his M.A. from George Washington University in 1939. In the course of his subsequent studies for the Ph.D., he took German to fulfill a language requirement; this proved sufficient to land him a position in army intelligence in London and Germany during World War II.

The evidence suggests that the local transmission processes affecting ceramic design were biased towards conformity (i.e., exhibit frequency-dependent bias).

It also publishes for the first time several hundred economic texts from the period. This ambitious combination of new documentation and detailed evaluation of data provides a reference work that will be consulted with profit by scholars. Part I of the volume (pp. 1-181), entitled \"Social Groups and Institutions in Babylonia during the Kassite Period,\" has three principal divisions: (a) offices and occupations, (b) ethnic groups, and (c) institutions and buildings. It assembles a useful compendium of textual data on these topics, including occasional references to unpublished material. The section dealing with offices and occupations (pp. 7-129) is the longest in the book. It discusses governmental officials, including the monarchy (the king, royal family, courtiers), provincial administrators, the judiciary, and town and village supervisors. It covers a variety of occupations including temple personnel, the military, agricultural and pastoral workers, craftsmen, merchants, the learned professions (e.g., scribes, physicians), and slaves. Sassmannshausen describes at length the contexts in which each of these types of officials, professionals, and workers is found, their attested activities, and their relative status in the ration networks documented by the Nippur archives. He adds historical perspective with observations on continuity and discontinuity with comparable Old Babylonian and Neo-Babylonian occupations. Not surprisingly, when one collects and discusses a diverse assortment of textual references arranged separately by office or function, the view tends to be fragmented and static. Though each specialty may be illumined in turn, there is little sense of how the complex political and economic system worked as a dynamic whole. Also, because the discussion sections are philologically oriented and focused for the most part on explicit attestation of the titles involved (s'arru, s'andabakku, etc.), significant connections may be missed: for example, the king (sarru), in the context of water ordeals, is given the title sakkanakku; but such occurrences are discussed only under \"sakkanakku\" in the section on provincial administration, with no cross-reference provided under the main entry for king. One may also question the advisability of providing categorical translations for official titles such as \"Kanzler\"" }, { "paper": "1983454528", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2004", "title": "reviews of books san antonio on parade six historic festivals judith berg sobre", "label": [ "2778484989", "52119013" ], "author": [ "2683861538" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Reviews of Books:San Antonio on Parade: Six Historic Festivals Judith Berg Sobre", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2057083345", "venue": "25370165", "year": "2004", "title": "historical archaeology and the british", "label": [ "507827637", "74916050" ], "author": [ "2126840189" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Historical Archaeology and the British", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2133877735", "venue": "56404657", "year": "2004", "title": "epigraphic geography the tribute quota fragments assigned to 421 0 415 4 b c", "label": [ "2777038452", "53553401" ], "author": [ "2486283342" ], "reference": [ "19998962", "569838377", "624829798", "1988742963", "1990241666", "1995753211", "2019942695", "2027750519", "2037306772", "2044126267", "2049224986", "2076429881", "2094024094", "2116990208", "2315545824", "2317011453", "2319769683", "2322682754", "2323075186", "2329371935", "2333086538", "2798346120", "2974947125" ], "abstract": "in this article the author examines fragments of the athenian tribute quota lists assigned to 421 0 415 4 b c the period preceding the elimination of tribute in ca 413 the epigraphical and historical arguments employed previously in the reconstruction of these lists are on the whole not cogent moreover in some cases epigraphic anomalies such as differences in lettering and the uncertainty of joins may challenge the association of fragments within lists it is suggested that many fragments could equally well be dated to the period following the increased assessment of 425 a period that currently constitutes the sole gap in the reconstructed tribute record", "title_raw": "Epigraphic Geography: The Tribute Quota Fragments Assigned to 421/0\u2013415/4 B.C.", "abstract_raw": "In this article, the author examines fragments of the Athenian tribute quota lists assigned to 421/0-415/4 B.C., the period preceding the elimination of tribute in ca. 413.

This myth associated true, patriotic and ever-victorious English sea-power with political liberty, financial profit and, above all, Protestantism. The public judged successive governments on their willingness and ability to realise this programme. Most of them failed on one or both counts, until the elder Pitt made the myth work, and the French revolutionaries changed the rules. This is a study of things that never happened, or never in the way they were understood and remembered. It is a history of ideas, but not an intellectual history, for it deals with the thoughts of men who were not accustomed to thinking in any profound and analytical fashion. It is a study of the memory of the Elizabethan age as it was shaped into an English national myth' about sea-power, the distorting lens through which generations of public men perceived and understood real naval activity. In this subject historians have sometimes been too apt to believe that political debate had to do with reality, that the issues discussed in parliament and print were real issues. This is curious, for it is a matter of common experience that even in our own day, when information circulates more freely than it ever did in the past, public policy is often formed and discussed in terms dictated more by politicians' preconceptions than by a dispassionate regard for facts. We ought to expect the same thing in a greater degree in the past, and so indeed we find it. For centuries seapower and naval affairs mattered a great deal in English political life, but the shipping which men discussed in parliament was not exactly the same as the shipping which actually put to sea. The English naval myth was built on the events of Queen Elizabeth's reign, but its precise origin does not seem ever to have been located. This may possibly be because it is to be found somewhere where British naval I use the word 'English' deliberately, even for the period after the union of the crowns, because the tradition I want to outline is essentially English. Scotland has, or had, its own ideas about the sea, but they were not the same." }, { "paper": "2943860360", "venue": "173880072", "year": "2004", "title": "timothy insoll the archaeology of islam in sub saharan africa xv 470 pages 125 figures 2003 cambridge cambridge university press 0 521 65171 9 hardback 70 us 95 0 521 65702 4 paperback 25 95 us 37", "label": [ "4445939" ], "author": [ "2944495414" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Timothy Insoll.

In fact, domestic practices are both rooted in social distinctions and used to manipulate them. By expanding analyses to include variation in domestic activities, archaeologists can observe how social variability is expressed in everyday life. The utility of this approach is demonstrated with an example from the Malpaso Valley, Zacatecas, Mexico, where there is strong evidence for complex social organization, but limited indication of status in prestige indices. Analyses of food-related variables, including macrobotanical remains, food preparation tools, and serving vessels from 10 household middens demonstrate a general, though not direct, correlation between involvement in domestic activities and frequencies of the few prestige markers present. The results suggest that the foundation and manifestation of social differences in the Malpaso Valley was not the same among all elite.

Through time, seven independent polities were founded, expanded, and were ultimately incorporated within two levels of regional political administration. I apply new quantitative methods for the estimation of polity territories and explore the processes that resulted in the formation of a regional polity. The resulting boundaries are objective estimates of the location of borders based on energetic efficiency that can be systematically tested against theoretical models. These estimated boundaries provide a basis for exploring the social meaning of territorial divisions.

Foraging models predict that seeds are likely to be utilized only if preferred resources become scarce, or if their own profitability is increased through processes such as domestication or technological innovation. Ethnographic, experimental, and nutritional studies of the small grains used prehistorically in eastern North America suggest that they offered low rates of return (measured as energy per unit time spent) compared to many alternative resources. These estimates rely on the assumption that some degree of post-harvest processing was required to make seed foods palatable and nutritious. That this assumption is reasonable is supported by archaeological and archaeobotanical evidence from rockshelters in eastern Kentucky. Resource stress and technological innovation are unlikely explanations for the adoption of such low-ranking resources in this region around 3500 B.P. However, estimation of return rates does not take account of the lowered significance of time costs in the winter season, when seed processing could take place with little competition from other productive tasks.

The temple was the treasure of Gadir, the most important Phoenician city on the Iberian peninsula and one of the most significant sites in the far western Mediterranean. As such, it must have served as the model for other Phoenician temples and for native architectural experiments during the centuries after its establishment. Its significance is affirmed in the writings of several Roman-period authors whose works span from the first century B.C. to the fifth century A.D. Nothing of the sanctuary survives, and even its location is debated. Only the Roman authors provide some glimpse of the architectural form of the temple itself. Since it began as a Phoenician sanctuary dedicated to Melkart anti never lost its Semitic associations, it is a major monument for understanding the nature of Levantine architectural forms and influences in the far western Mediterranean. Though twentieth-century scholars have referred to the temple, only Antonio Garcia y Bellido attempted a thorough investigation by considering the sources and their possible associations with the archaeological findings from the Levantine region. His work was limited by the archaeological material available to him in 1963, and he concluded that the temple must have closely resembled that which Solomon built in Jerusalem, another structure known only from later literary sources. Forty years of archaeological investigations in the Levant have increased our knowledge of the possible sources on which the Temple of Melkart could have been based. It is also clear that the temple of Solomon could not have been one of them. The sanctuary must have begun as a small shrine, probably similar to the Phoenician shrine discovered at Kommos on southern Crete. As the city of Gadir developed, the sanctuary may well have been embellished and could have begun to assume an aspect more like that of the Phoenician Temple of Astarte at Kition. Later Arabic sources, which describe the ruined temple, refer to a tower in association with it. In its final form the temple may well have come to have a raised central unit, part of a tripartite holy of holies. It was in these various manifestations that the temple provided models for builders of temples and sanctuaries elsewhere in the far western Mediterranean world." }, { "paper": "2727246076", "venue": "93676754", "year": "2004", "title": "review russia and soul an exploration by dale pesmen", "label": [ "2549261", "74916050" ], "author": [ "2885508751" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Review: Russia and Soul: An Exploration, by Dale Pesmen", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2054607184", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2004", "title": "reviews of books old age in the roman world a cultural and social history tim g parkin", "label": [ "125109622" ], "author": [ "2572966942" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Reviews of Books:Old Age in the Roman World: A Cultural and Social History Tim G.

This article seeks to revise this interpretation by showing how these apparently dissonant views intermingled in the study of hysteria. Through a survey of attitudes towards Catholicism and in their treatment of Catholic patients, the article shows how French psychiatrists and neurologists were deeply indebted to religious iconography and experience, despite their vehement anti-clericalism. Because of their hatred of the church, they focused on the treatment of female hysterics who manifested \u2018religious\u2019 symptoms \u2013 demonopathy, mystical states, and stigmata \u2013 in order to amass conclusive evidence of Catholic \u2018superstition\u2019. Their preoccupation with such patients meant, however, that they paradoxically re-embedded Catholicism into their scientific practice by incorporating religious motifs, bodily poses, and iconography into their diagnosis of hysteria. At the same time, their disdain for the Catholic religious imagination meant that they refused to explore the fantasies of their subjects. For physicians like Jean-Martin Charcot and the more subtle Pierre Janet \u2013 a contemporary and competitor of Sigmund Freud \u2013 fantasies of bodily suffering, unearthly physical perfection, and an array of Catholic maternal fantasies associated with images of Mary and Christ were all nothing more than delusions, not the stuff from which an appreciation or understanding of the \u2018unconscious\u2019 could emerge. The result was that French physicians offered no psychodynamic transformation or symbolic reinterpretation of their words or physical symptoms, a resistance that was one reason among many for their hostility to psychoanalysis." }, { "paper": "2035596430", "venue": "14980801", "year": "2004", "title": "zaimokuza reconsidered the forensic evidence and classical japanese swordsmanship", "label": [ "2778627824", "74916050" ], "author": [ "2535716903" ], "reference": [ "2072283453" ], "abstract": "in july 1333 at the battle for kamakura the hojo regency fell many of the fallen from the battle were buried at zaimokuza near kamakura myra shackley made a forensic investigation of some of the zaimokuza remains writing her conclusions in an article printed in world archaeology shackley 1986 shackley concluded that the human remains were all of high class samurai warriors that those discussed had died from head wounds inflicted with refined precision using the japanese sword and that the evidence suggested extremely high battlefield ethics my own analysis of the remains suggested something quite different that the fallen were in fact low class un armoured foot soldiers killed by pole arms wielded by mounted knights no evidence was found to support the notion either of exceptional sword skill or of remarkable battlefield ethics shackley made errors in her use of inter disciplinary material and this article highlights the necessity of using such resources with care", "title_raw": "Zaimokuza reconsidered: The forensic evidence, and classical Japanese swordsmanship", "abstract_raw": "In July 1333, at the battle for Kamakura, the Hojo Regency fell.

In this paper, we provide a broad overview of the final 3500 years of human occupation on the Plateau that includes two primary goals. First, we provide a new chronology of late prehistoric cultural change and stability that integrates data from the Northern or Canadian Plateau and the Southern or Columbia Plateau. Second, we offer new ideas concerning the emergence, dispersal, and diversification of Plateau hunting and gathering societies.

By Jan Assmann, translated by Andrew Jenkins. Cambridge, Mass.: Harvard University Press, 2003. Pp. xi, 513; illustrations. $18.95 paper. The Mind of Egypt is both brilliant and provocative, and will no doubt provide considerable fodder for debate within Egyptological circles. I will focus on what I think are key strengths and weaknesses in Assmann's approach, followed by the ideas that I feel will have the most impact both within and outside of Egyptology. Assmann is best when dealing with topics that are purely textual, like the symbolism of pyramids or the emergence of personal piety as a major religious trend comparable to modern religious movements. His strongest arguments deal with the nature of society and memory in the Late Period and Greco Roman period (c. 664 BCE to 395 CE), and the transmission of Egyptian beliefs into Western tradition through foreign writers like Hecateaus or natives operating in a new medium of history, like Manetho. Archaeologists, however, will find elements of The Mind of Egypt frustrating, particularly the farther back in time one goes. Assmann privileges the textual and monumental record over more prosaic sources. For example, he argues that during the early Old Kingdom (fourth and fifth dynasties c. 2600-2345 BCE), the king and court wielded power over an undifferentiated populace. He bases this argument exclusively on an analysis of titles and texts from the stone tombs that surround the pyramids of the era, and the appearance of rock cut tombs in the sixth dynasty (c. 2345-2150 BCE) containing inscriptions that he argues reflect the establishment of a locally based provincial elite. But as Barry Kemp points out, this reflects an imbalance in the data more than any real-ity in provincial organization.1 Archaeologically, large mud-brick tombs outside the capital suggest the presence of a powerful provincial elite during the early Old Kingdom, but since they are more vulnerable to decay, inscriptions that would reflect this only rarely survive. Assmann develops his most important themes when dealing with his larger vision of the fundamental shifts in the nature and conception of the state. In a refreshing contrast to the awkward traditional divisions in Egyptian history, he sees three key shifts in the nature of Egyptian society and memory, first at the beginning of the Middle Kingdom (c. 1994 BCE), second with Akhenaton and the Amarna Period (c. 1352-1338 BC), and finally with the Third Intermediate Period (c. 1069 BCE). He persuasively argues that the Middle Kingdom kings co-opted the ideology of patronage developed by local leaders, or nomarchs, during the crisis and civil conflict of the First Intermediate Period (c. 2150-2040 BCE). The state ideology shifted from emphasizing the king as a god to highlighting the benefits of pharaonic rule (i.e., the king as champion, provider, etc.). Drawing on anthropological literature, Assmann makes a compelling case that this was designed to provide a strong sense of vertical solidarity that would compensate for the crisis brought about by the failure of divine kingship in the face of famine and civil war at the end of the Old Kingdom (c. 2150 BCE). He also reasons convincingly that a new ideology of justice (ma 'at) also provided horizontal solidarity through a new sense connectivity that promoted an organic cohesiveness between people living in \"constellations\" with connections between individuals, but also between people and gods. Assmann persuasively contends that the next fundamental break came not with Hyksos conquest in the second Intermediate Period (c. 1650 BCE), but rather in the aftermath of Akhenaton's failed monotheistic religious \"revolution,\" or as Assmann characterizes it, Cosmo-theism, a focus on a single divine principle more than the worship of a particular deity. In contrast and reaction to this attempt at enforcing a religious orthodoxy of vertical solidarity, individuals now place god in their own heart without a royal intermediary. \u2026" }, { "paper": "1594082576", "venue": "84742693", "year": "2005", "title": "women writing latin from roman antiquity to early modern europe", "label": [ "195244886", "27793534", "74916050" ], "author": [ "2683588752" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "WOMEN WRITING LATIN:FROM ROMAN ANTIQUITY TO EARLY MODERN EUROPE", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2011382320", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2005", "title": "david williams condorcet and modernity new york cambridge university press 2004 pp xi 306 75 00", "label": [ "74916050" ], "author": [ "2047428214" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "David Williams.

Thus, as boundaries have become sharper between 'religions', so the issue of conversion has grown in political significance." }, { "paper": "2063788725", "venue": "49405560", "year": "2005", "title": "clearing a path theorizing the past in native american studies", "label": [ "53553401" ], "author": [ "2160083395" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Clearing a Path: Theorizing the Past in Native American Studies", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2078826949", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2005", "title": "kai wing chow publishing culture and power in early modern china stanford stanford university press 2004 pp xv 397 49 50", "label": [ "6303427", "191935318" ], "author": [ "2483331185" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Kai\u2010wing Chow.

Challenges in the Archaeology of Native North America", "abstract_raw": "What has frequently been termed \u201ccontact-period\u201d archaeology has assumed a prominent role in North American archaeology in the last two decades. This article examines the conceptual foundation of archaeological \u201cculture contact\u201d studies by sharpening the terminological and interpretive distinction between \u201ccontact\u201d and \u201ccolonialism.\u201d The conflation of these two terms, and thereby realms of historical experience, has proven detrimental to archaeologists\u2019 attempts to understand indigenous and colonial histories. In light of this predicament, the article tackles three problems with treating colonialism as culture contact: (1) emphasizing short-term encounters rather than long-term entanglements, which ignores the process and heterogeneous forms of colonialism and the multifaceted ways that indigenous people experienced them; (2) downplaying the severity of interaction and the radically different levels of political power, which does little to reveal how Native people negotiated complex social terrain but does much to distance \u201ccontact\u201d studies from what should be a related research focus in the archaeology of African enslavement and diaspora; and (3) privileging predefined cultural traits over creative or creolized cultural products, which loses sight of the ways that social agents lived their daily lives and that material culture can reveal, as much as hide, the subtleties of cultural change and continuity. Lo que frecuentemente se denomina arqueologia del \u201cperiodo de contacto\u201d ha adquirido en los ultimos 20 anos un papel prominente en la arqueologia norteamericana.

Bajo semejante predicamento, este articulo aborda tres problemas que se generan al equiparar colonialismo con contacto cultural: (1) poner enfasis en los encuentros de poca duracion\u2014en vez de las relaciones prolongadas\u2014lo que ignora las formas y los procesos heterogeneos del colonialismo, asi como las multiples dimensiones de las experiencias indigenas, (2) poner menor atencion a la intensidad de la interaccion y a los grados de poder politico tan diferentes, lo que no permite apreciar como la gente autoctona negocio en contextos sociales complejos, promoviendo ademas un distanciamiento entre los estudios de \u201ccontacto\u201d y las investigaciones afines sobre la arqueologia de la esclavitud y diasporas africanas; y (3) privilegiar rasgos culturales predefinidos sobre formas culturales novedosas o criollas, lo que impide apreciar las formas en las que agentes sociales vivieron sus quehaceres cotidianos, olvidando a la vez que la cultura material puede revelar, asi como ocultar, las sutilezas del cambio cultural y de la continuidad." }, { "paper": "2001488963", "venue": "165709033", "year": "2005", "title": "ethnogenesis regional integration and ecology in prehistoric amazonia toward a system perspective", "label": [ "2549261", "204852536" ], "author": [ "2557837790" ], "reference": [ "44832669", "129690664", "205517185", "377575422", "384389784", "570097415", "582392054", "591027193", "599952012", "638137861", "646978146", "1488693736", "1491060731", "1493028334", "1517457262", "1525720050", "1537423455", "1562217866", "1565063968", "1571406440", "1687303188", "1865642911", "1974752294", "1982830806", "1990650237", "1991668635", "2000978456", "2003583123", "2006042322", "2009595884", "2010059720", "2010308670", "2012265393", "2016333114", "2016703133", "2017929484", "2021629381", "2023180724", "2026549178", "2026638215", "2043997932", "2056809196", "2060421498", "2065740838", "2066448869", "2066774786", "2082525623", "2083076851", "2085873612", "2086032376", "2093770665", "2094212313", "2095560109", "2102283824", "2107502418", "2110679499", "2124600574", "2141499197", "2144918192", "2146751695", "2152751718", "2155156679", "2159226825", "2161693202", "2168525597", "2170518535", "2181289764", "2205916287", "2221790175", "2247648452", "2314640223", "2315135525", "2315413886", "2328928234", "2331912235", "2332813754", "2332939004", "2405822418", "2481099495", "2489227998", "2497949133", "2498663646", "2501702538", "2503350341", "2517002029", "2797125448", "2913881249", "3136389637" ], "abstract": "this paper critically reviews reconstructions of cultural development in prehistoric amazonia and argues for the primacy of regional and interregional exchange in generating the complex distributions of ethnolinguistic identities traced by linguists and archaeologists in the area this approach requires an explicit abandonment of notions of migrating peoples in favor of modern anthropological understandings of ethnicity and ethnogenesis further the paper discusses the significance of such a regional system perspective on amazonian ethnogenesis for the ongoing debate on the extent of social stratification and agricultural intensification on the floodplains and wet savannas of lowland south america it concludes that the emergence of arawakan chiefdoms and ethnic identities in such environments after the first millennium bc signifies the occupation of a niche defined in terms of both ecology and regional exchange but also that it transformed both these kinds of conditions in these processes ethnicity s", "title_raw": "Ethnogenesis, regional integration, and ecology in prehistoric Amazonia: Toward a system perspective", "abstract_raw": "This paper critically reviews reconstructions of cultural development in prehistoric Amazonia and argues for the primacy of regional and interregional exchange in generating the complex distributions of ethnolinguistic identities traced by linguists and archaeologists in the area.

Only about 6 percent of Africans brought to the Americas came to what is now the United States. Today no more than one-third of the hemisphere s Afro-Americans are in the United States. Latin American slavery persisted longer and more intensely than it did in the United States. The Portuguese and Spaniards began enslaving Africans early in the fifteenth century. Slavery would finally end in Brazil in 1888.2 Comparative slavery has long been a robust field, especially since the 1946 publication of Frank Tannenbaums Slave and Citizen: The Negro in the Americas. But the literature on peoples of African descent in Latin America after emancipation is more uneven. We know a fair amount about some societies, for example, Brazil and Cuba. For others, relatively little is known. There has also been little attempt at a broad synthesis of Afro-Latin history. Historian Leslie Rout's 1976 publication of The African Experience in Spanish America provided a valuable look at slavery, but considerably less information about the postemancipation period. With Afro-Latin America, 1800-2000, George Reid Andrews steps in to fill the breach, giving us a history that moves AfroAmericans from the periphery and closer to the center of Latin American history.3 Andrews s task is formidable.

Ricoeur posits a different concept of identity: not as the same (idem) but as self-same (soimeme or ipse). \u201cThe difference between idem and ipse is nothing more than the difference between a substantial or formal identity and a narrative identity.\u201d In other words, to answer the question \u201cWho?\u201d is to tell the story of a life. The subject, Ricoeur suggests, is both author and reader of its own life. And the story of that life is continuously reconfigured. The permanence of the proper name as narrative identity, unlike the abstract identity of the same (idem), thus includes change within continuity. This notion of narrative identity is not applicable only to individuals but also to groups, which in similar ways constitute their identity by taking up narratives that become, for them, their real history. The story of a group is constituted in time by a series of modifications to these narratives that both preserve and adjust that group\u2019s narrative identity.

Edited by William Beinart and JoAnn McGregor. Athens, Ohio: Ohio University Press and Oxford: James Currey, 2003. Pp. x, 275; maps, illustrations, index, $44.95 cloth, $22.95 paper. This volume collects essays from among the papers presented at a major conference at Oxford University, \"African Environments: Past and Present,\" held in 1999. It is the fourth publication to present papers from this conference.1 The conference itself was a great success, with papers covering the range of environmental histories across the continent and moving from archaeological reconstructions of long-term climate change to current debates over the causes and effects of environmental change. Taken together, all of the publications that came out of that conference give a comprehensive overview of the state of environmental history in Africa. Understandably, then, this volume does not provide by itself a comprehensive picture of either the work encompassed at the conference or the state of the field. This is no fault of the contributions to this volume; they range from interesting to very important; nor perhaps of the editors, given the multiple publication projects that emerged from the conference. This volume is not comprehensive in either geographic scope or in its time scale. Nine of 13 chapters deal with southern Africa, one with Madagascar, one with Uganda, one with Tanzania, and one with British imperial policy. Only one of the chapters covers the era before colonial conquest in any depth. Even Beinart and McGregor's introduction is rather brief, trying to find common themes in the works rather than to present a comprehensive framework for African environmental history (Beinart himself had undertaken such an effort in his inaugural lecture).2 The editors identify several themes exhibited by the essays in the volume. Several, including the titular link between social history and environmental history, are generic to the field. However, a couple of essays are quite striking. In particular, the authors emphasize the use and abuse of landscape in defining not just physical but social space in the form of identity. Perhaps the strongest element of the book is the emphasis on ways of thinking about environments employed by Africans, colonial administrators, colonial scientists, and settlers. In this case, the whole is rather less than the sum of the parts. Several of the case studies presented in the volume are quite telling bits of historical analysis. Emmanuel Kreike carefully reconstructs how people in the Angola/Namibia borderlands shape their environment through the manipulation of trees in ways not always visible to trained observers.

Hearth locations varied considerably, but were virtually always located in areas of low artifact density. Considered in light of ethnoarchaeological studies of hunter-gatherer site structure, our data indicate that the excavated portion of the site was at the periphery of a domestic area and was used for secondary discard and other purposes. Trash appears to have been collected and discarded onto previously existing and continuously visible middens throughout the occupation, and new hearths appear to have been located to avoid these middens.

Africana folklore should be a component of departments and programs in the humanities, whether as a part of folklore studies, anthropology, English, history, black studies, or other canonical fields. As others have argued, music, dance, language, religions, and other forms of Africana traditions play a much more central role in western identity than do many of the core texts in English, philosophy, and religious studies departments. Ironically, however, the canon in the western university and educational system at every level has more to do with the strong hold maintained by an imperialist agenda and a power structure steeped in colonial attitudes than it does with the actual relevance of so many texts and authors to understanding life in modern America. Challenges to the emergence of this area as a field are immense. Despite the long history of scholarship in this area, for example, there is still a dearth of organizations or societies devoted to Africana folklore-no annual or semiannual conferences, or even an active section within the American Folklore Society. Whereas journals focusing on Africana folk traditions and culture exist in small countries such as Jamaica, there are none in the United States. Departmental, racial, and class politics have rendered it difficult for such developments to emerge. Without the sense of there being a field of study, individual studies in this area are likely to seem random rather than in conversation with others-hence, fewer debates to advance our thinking. One of the most difficult aspects of editing this special issue has been the decision about what to call it. The idea was originally proposed as a special issue in AfricanAmerican folklore, but almost immediately it became apparent that the term \"African American\" was problematic, as it has come to refer exclusively to descendants of the first African slaves now living within the United States. Following the categories observed by federal agencies, scholars often purposely or inadvertently deny the status of \"African American\" to black immigrants or their children who arrived or were born in the United States after slavery and have since become citizens. But the profound connections in folklore among people of African descent dispersed throughout the New World argue for a more inclusive, organic rubric under which to be studied" }, { "paper": "2034402486", "venue": "137773608", "year": "2005", "title": "there s more to a colourful life than simply sex", "label": [ "53553401" ], "author": [ "1943105702" ], "reference": [ "2581195162" ], "abstract": "kenton p 2005 correspondence there s more to a colourful life than simply sex nature 436 328", "title_raw": "There's more to a colourful life than simply sex", "abstract_raw": "Kenton, P.

Many Lebanese saw Hariri as Saudi Arabia's man, never quite taking to the swashbuckling way he climbed to the heights of power. But on February 14, when the former prime minister was struck down by a huge bomb that shattered his motorcade as it passed near Beirut's swank hotels and sea front-in the very district his construction company had remade from rubble-Lebanon had its first \"martyr\" in many years.

A Sunni Muslim, he had never bonded entirely with the Christians of East Beirut and Mount Lebanon, but he now became public property, a symbol of national unity. If Hariri's assassins sought to make an example of him for his growing defiance of Syrian power, the aftermath of the crime mocked them.

A seminal contribution to the development of cinema verit&. Jean Rouch's filmic oeuvre is both of these things, but it also stands as a testament to an unwavering faith in the transformative power of fantasy and play. Indeed, placed in historical perspective, much of Rouch's work reflects the effort to channel this power through film and to use the process of filmmaking itself as a visionary form of political engagement. This is perhaps especially true of La pyramide humaine (The human pyramid; 1961), which, like Rouch's other films made during the period of decolonization, is an explosive combination of avant-garde aesthetics and progressive politics (Feld 2003:8).1 Begun in summer 1959 and completed in spring 1960, Pyramide's production coincided with the dramatic climax of independence movements in Francophone Africa. Between September 28, 1958, and October 18, 1960, France divested itself of 15 African colonies, ending its sub-Saharan empire (Launay 1968:160). In 1960, as the question of redefining the relationship between colonizer and colonized loomed large, President de Gaulle proclaimed, \"I consider it absurd and ruinous for colonial people to base their new achievements on the rupture with countries that preceded them in civilization, and opened it to them.... Will these new-born sovereignties, these young sovereignties, be acquired and exercised at the expense of the former colonizer... or through amicable agreement and friendly cooperation?\" (Perville 1993:203). Anxious to reaffirm France's continuing role as a global power and lay claim to expanding postcolonial markets, he championed a paternalistic status quo of \"friendly cooperation\" with Africa. Meanwhile, the Algerian war cast a pall over French foreign policy. In 1961, as fighting continued, Frantz Fanon published The Wretched of the Earth-both a partisan chronicle of the Algerian insurrection, and an optimistic statement of postcolonial chiliasm (Fanon 1991). He characterized decolonization as a total rupture, both politically and spiritually, between the colonizer and the colonized, in which violence acts as a cathartic ritual process, allowing once subjugated peoples to become agents in the undoing of colonial dehumanization. In an earlier work, Black Skin, White Masks, Fanon eloquently described the emergence of a postracist world in terms of blacks and whites distancing themselves \"from the voices of their ancestors so that an" }, { "paper": "2017963219", "venue": "203378611", "year": "2005", "title": "resisting the third reich the catholic clergy in hitler s berlin by kevin r spicer dekalb northern illinois university press 2004 xi 253 pp 36 00 cloth", "label": [ "121578661" ], "author": [ "2217317366" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Resisting the Third Reich: The Catholic Clergy in Hitler's Berlin.

Colonialism therefore no longer exists, neither does imperialism. This hollow proposition panders to the common American ideological discourse according to which the United States, in contrast to the European states, never aspired to form a colonial empire for its own benefit and thus could never have been \"imperialist\" (and thus is not today anymore than yesterday, as Bush reminds us). The historical materialist tradition proposes a very different analysis of the modern world, centered on identification of the requirements for the accumulation of capital, particularly of its dominant segments.

By Christopher A. Conte. Series in Ecology and History. Athens: Ohio University Press, 2004. Pp. xiv, 215; 20 illustrations. $55.00 cloth, $24.95 paper. Christopher Conte has written a history of the struggles over conservation through the twentieth century in the Usambara Mountains of northeastern Tanzania. His work attempts an integrated study of a changing landscape. He charts how the African peoples of the area interacted with the expansion of markets for produce and labor under colonial rule, the alienation of land for both European settlers and forestry projects, the emergence of conservationist and developmentalist programs in the late colonial era, and the promise and failure of populist reform in Julius Nyerere's postindependence Tanzania. He keeps a clear focus on how these developments changed the environments of the Usambaras. One of the great strengths of African environmental history is that it focuses on the way human communities and the environment mutually construct each other. Africanist environmental history bleeds over into social history very easily, unlike some more science-oriented environmental history. Conte to some extent does not follow the Africanist model. He focuses on the history of one region with a changing cast of communities and characters that modify it. This statement is not a criticism; as much as it is important to understand the ways that human communities shape the environments in which they live, sometimes Africanist environmental history focuses too much on the discourses about environments rather than the changes in the environments themselves. The region Conte examines is one of the more interesting in East Africa and one of the best studied. His work nicely complements that of Steven Feierman, John Sender and Shelia Smith, and Patrick Fleuret. The Usambara Mountains are among the Eastern Arc mountains of East Africa, formed perhaps 200 million years ago. Given their age, they have served as refugee areas during the arid periods of the earth's climate (such as during the various glacial ages) for plant and animal species that need more moisture to survive. They are divided into two blocks, East and West. If their geology and biology link them to other Eastern Arc mountains such as the Pares, Taita, and the Ulugurus, their recent history divides them and divides the two blocks from each other. Conte demonstrates the antiquity of human settlement in the forests on the slopes of the mountains. He begins with the development of the \"Mwitu\" culture across the highlands that is ancestral to the intensive agricultural traditions of the peoples living in highland zones from the Great Lakes to the coast. He notes the importance of both irrigation and the coming of the banana in the area. He also highlights the importance of herders speaking a Cushitic language, the Mbugu, who lived in higher and drier elevations than the agricultural Shambaa of the mountains. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2125287912", "venue": "164398212", "year": "2005", "title": "william t flynn medieval music as medieval exegesis studies in liturgical musicology 8 lanham md and london scarecrow press 1999 pp xxii 271 7 tables and 25 musical examples 55", "label": [ "52119013" ], "author": [ "2183336854" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "William T.

It is argued that Titane was not a town but a sanctuary, perhaps the most important sanctuary of the Sikyonia in antiquity. The fortifications previously interpreted as an acropolis wall belong to a fort built later within the sanctuary because of its strategic location close to the southern borders of the city-state. Furthermore, the discovery of early Iron Age material on the site and the early cult practices mentioned by Pausanias show that the sanctuary was established in the Geometric period, i.e. during the period of formation of the polis . Finally, it is suggested that a main reason for the foundation of the sanctuary on the slopes of Vesiza was the sacred demarcation of the southern reaches of the Sikyonian city-state." }, { "paper": "2761890492", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2005", "title": "patricia crone god s rule government and islam new york columbia university press 2004 pp x 462 39 50reviews of books and filmscomparative world", "label": [ "4445939", "2778550701" ], "author": [ "2444217436" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Patricia Crone.

The many political relationships which occur in Laxdaela saga are analysed in relation to those from contemporary sagas from the same area of western Iceland. Since it appears that there is relatively little in common between the political situations depicted in Laxdaela saga and those portrayed in the contemporary sagas, it is likely that Laxdaela saga and the contemporary sagas were actually written down in different periods.

Learning: ... denotes non-USASCII text omitted.) One of the several New Testament interpretations of the death of Jesus is that Jesus was a sin offering whose death effected the forgiveness of the sins of humankind. But the Gospel of Mark makes no explicit connection between the death of Jesus and the forgiveness of sins. The \"ransom saying\" in 10:45 is best translated a ransom \"in substitution for many,\"1 implying that the problem overcome by Jesus' \"giving his life\" was captivity or slavery rather than guilt. A first-century Greek-speaking audience would probably have understood that, although the \"service\" of the Markan Jesus does involve forgiving sins (2:1-12), the narrative taken as a whole suggests that the death of the Markan Jesus performs \"for many\" the service of liberation from bondage to oppression for membership in the covenant community that constitutes a \"house of prayer for all the nations\" (11:17). The \"cup saying\" in 14:24 alludes to Exod 24:8, where the blood is that of a covenant-sealing sacrifice, not that of a sin or guilt offering. Because Matt 26:28 makes the connection by adding \"for the forgiveness of sins\" to the cup saying, some scholars believe that Matthew's reading must have been implicit in Mark. Arguments for an emphasis on forgiveness may be found in the work of Adela Yarbro Collins, Rikki E. Watts, and others.2 However, this question is usually addressed by intertextual arguments somewhat to the neglect of intratextual or narrative analysis. It is the latter that we add to the conversation in the hope of enriching it. In terms of contextual foci, our look at the narrative context falls in the category of the internal literary context (the interrelations of elements of the text), and our look at the cultural context of the authorial audience includes both the internal historical context (the interrelations of the text with other texts) and the external historical context (the broader societal/cultural situation of the text).3 Most of the present article comments on the Markan Gospel in sequence, attending to signals of the significance of Jesus' death in narrative context. Because of the importance of dealing explicitly with those readings that do argue for a connection between the Markan Jesus' death and the forgiveness of sins, however, sustained comments on the cultural context of the Markan authorial audience with reference to 10:45 and 14:24 are intercalated at those points. As with Markan intercalations, it is hoped that center and frame will enrich each other in the act of interpretation. I. HEARING MARK'S STORY Mark's Gospel is a story, a sequential narration of events with a beginning, middle, and end designed to be heard in that order.4 Despite its later liturgical and academic fragmentation, Mark's story works as a whole, and it is the whole Gospel we are regarding as the narrative context of Mark's story of Jesus' death. In addition, Mark's story is designed not for the eye but for the ear.5 Because the first-century context of this whole Gospel was oral, we will listen for echoes (to use an oral metaphor) of earlier scenes in the story of Jesus' death, or (resorting to a visual metaphor) we will be on the lookout for earlier foreshadowings of the death story in the stories that lead up to it.6 Martin Kahler's assertion that \"one could call the Gospels passion narratives with extended introductions,\"7 while reflecting form-critical presuppositions that we reject, nevertheless suggests that Mark's \"extended introduction\" prepares the audience to hear the significance of the story of Jesus' death in a particular way. Kingdom (Mark 1:1-4:34)8 Mark's story of \"The beginning of the good news of Jesus Christ, the Son of God\" (1:1; NRSV, here and throughout unless otherwise indicated) opens at a rapid pace, with \"Isaiah\" pointing to John the baptizer, who points to Jesus of Nazareth. But as soon as the audience is given reason to share the narrator's (1:1) elevated view of Jesus-through the words of the prophet \"Isaiah\" (1:2-3), the baptizer John (1:7-8), and even God (1:11: \"You are my Son, the Beloved; with you I am well pleased\")-the audience is also signaled that being God's son is no easy task. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2326624422", "venue": "30381306", "year": "2006", "title": "epidemiology and culture james a trostle", "label": [ "6303427" ], "author": [ "2500213435" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Epidemiology and Culture.

A significant theme in medieval history was the rise of merchant city-states amidst a variety of fundamentally different and not always sympathetic surrounding societies. The Swahili towns of the East African littoral are good examples, and careful examination reveals both their need to interact positively with their alien hinterlands and the imperative of maintaining a cautiously distinct cultural identity. The South Somali coast community of Brava preserved its own Bantu language (Chimini) and preferred way of doing things long after the medieval trade diasporas that gave it birth had been absorbed by larger and vastly more potent modern historical trends. One such force, during the nineteenth century, was the Zanzibar sultanate that claimed and lightly administered the Banadir ports of which Brava was one. New trade during the century brought both prosperity and vulnerabilities, while widened Islamic horizons and passions too had positive and problematic aspects. At century's end, however, European interests gnawed at Zanzibar's influence, and Brava fell into a zone dominated informally and tenuously by Italy. For the seven years from 1893 to 1900, as the ambiguous transition from Zanzibari overlordship to Italian colonial rule began, a series of five local Islamic judges in Brava created records in Arabic, ostensibly according to the shari'a, for the Italian authorities. The work reviewed here offers Arabic texts and English translations of almost 2,000 of these civil court records-those that have survived. With the support of an insightful historical and social introduction and helpful appendices and indices, these records offer unparalleled insight into the internal workings of the community of Brava on the eve of its final subordination to the outside world. The present reviewer, through introducing the various types of records, will also venture some ideas concerning how these invaluable primary sources might conceivably serve subsequent interpretive historiography. In the years from 1893 to 1900 the town of Brava had a population estimated at 4000 or 5,000 souls. Therefore the approximately 3,000 names that appear in the records, though not all were townsmen, may nevertheless in the wider context of precolonial African historiography be accepted as an unusually comprehensive sample of traditional community life. Given the conventions of naming in the Islamic world, moreover, most of these primary entries in the index of personal names contain also the names of one or numerous forbears. This evidence invites the reconstruction of Brava families through nominal record linkage over at least three generations; in other words, a significant part of the city population throughout the last half of the nineteenth century lies embedded in the names current during the period 1893-1900. Further examination would expose some of the internal dynamics of community politics through the conduct of marital and commercial relations among small or extended native families. By far the most common genre of record was the public acknowledgement of indebtedness (pp. 61-62), sometimes secured by collateral or the support of a third party, and sometimes stipulating a schedule of repayment. The community thus derived some of its cohesion from the complicated network of mutual financial obligations undertaken by so many of its members. Further, this network imposed a structure of obligation upon the community through time; although some loans were repayable upon demand many, and conspicuously most of the biggest, were intended to extend over many years or even decades. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2062033675", "venue": "95667342", "year": "2006", "title": "the fault lines of empire political differentiation in massachusetts and nova scotia ca 1760 1830", "label": [ "6303427", "2778495208" ], "author": [ "161556967" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "The Fault Lines of Empire: Political Differentiation in Massachusetts and Nova Scotia, ca. 1760\u20131830", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "1966285773", "venue": "95667342", "year": "2006", "title": "settling scores german music denazification the americans 1945 1953", "label": [ "2775945889", "154775046" ], "author": [ "2139421173" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Settling Scores: German Music, Denazification, & the Americans, 1945\u20131953", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2125956368", "venue": "56601287", "year": "2006", "title": "palgrave advances in renaissance historiography", "label": [ "52119013", "29598333" ], "author": [ "2616403193" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Palgrave Advances in Renaissance Historiography", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2051356781", "venue": "186893535", "year": "2006", "title": "the new simonides and the question of historical elegy", "label": [ "519517224", "205531365", "182767506" ], "author": [ "2025024608" ], "reference": [ "52005545", "76157717", "356572611", "597906208", "622933255", "631629293", "636210105", "639482352", "641714239", "654795127", "1479748392", "1514156337", "1577769669", "1984497983", "1987445677", "1990775765", "2007827806", "2024944873", "2032798374", "2061360574", "2073932918", "2087769117", "2091046364", "2155315884", "2319259772", "2480910347", "2673090183", "2798795400", "2802866676" ], "abstract": "in this paper i question the validity of the notion of historical elegy as a genre of classical greek elegy my approach is to view elegy as a whole in order to understand first how the greeks themselves used the term elegy and then what we can learn of the contents of other classical elegies that touched upon historical subjects i show that the greeks never attached any descriptive label to elegy whether historical or otherwise and that an elegy that included historical matters could also incorporate myth and look forward to the future while including as well themes now thought of as sympotic", "title_raw": "The New Simonides and the Question of Historical Elegy", "abstract_raw": "In this paper I question the validity of the notion of \"historical elegy\"\nas a genre of classical Greek elegy.

Between 1999 and 2002, during sporadic visits to a Mande village in the Malian region of West Africa known as the \"Monts Manding,\" Jan Jansen worked with Bala Kante, an elder blacksmith whom he justifiably describes as un informateur ideal (p. 7). In traditional Mande society blacksmiths are the acknowledged masters of the occult sciences. As principal communicators with the spirit world they are guardians of power objects, guides and administrators of ritual processes, diviners, and healers. Bom around 1926, BaIa Kante had become the last of his generation of blacksmiths in the village of Farabako (pop. c. 400), and he welcomed the opportunity to impart his store of esoteric knowledge. Poignantly sensitive to the great Mande cultural legacy that is gradually disappearing, Bala Kante laments the loss of ancient ironworking technologies and other traditional knowledge that the men of his generation had learned from their fathers, saying \"[n]ous venerons les anciennes pratiques, nous les suivons jusqu'a present\" (\"we revere the old ways, and we still follow them\") (p. 31). Specifically, owing to the long availability of scrap iron (the now ubiquitous fer de vehicules), the old blacksmith regrets that \"[c]eux qui connaissent le hautfourneau aujourd'hui, leur nombre a diminue' (\"of those who know how to smelt iron today, few remain\"). Observing that \"[ajuparavant nous faisions certains travaux qu'on ignore de nos jours\" (\"formerly, we performed crafts that are no longer known in our day\"), Kante reflects the ever-present Mande spiritual values of his and former generations, with the remark that by no longer commanding the skills to do such work, the men of today \"ont tous failli a leurs obligations totemiques\" (p. 41). The main body of material in this volume consists of fifteen translated texts excerpted from Bala Kante's responses to interview questions. Most of the discourse involves the informant's descriptions of topics directly related to his own craft of iron smelting and blacksmithing, as well as traditions of origin and social institutions presided over by blacksmiths (e.g., seasonal rituals and initiation societies). Additionally, two of the chapters provide interesting insights into local perceptions of colonial-era Europeans. Others offer perspectives on prominent eighteenth- and nineteenth-century figures including Biton Kulubali, Samori Toure, and Al-Haj 'Umar TaI. Even today. Mande family identities are based on traditions of descent from characters in oral epic narrative, and as a member of the Kante lineage, the informant has a nominal (and probably fictive) legendary connection with the thirteenth-century hero Sumaworo Kante, arch enemy of Sunjata who is recalled as \"founder\" of the Mali Empire. Jan Jansen mentions that in the interviews BaIa recited a version of the battle between Sunjata and Sumaworo, but that he found it so confusing he decided to omit it. Any references to iconic cultural figures and events are likely to contribute something, however minor, to our knowledge of the broader corpus, and it is probably best to preserve any references to it, however distorted they might be. This book is the eighth in the series \"African Sources for African History,\" which laudably requires that the original language text be included on the facing pages of the translations (English or French). As such, the series presents (presumably) undistorted transcripts of indigenous narratives in the vernacular, while providing access to otherwise unavailable texts. Collectors of oral sources who publish their original language transcripts expose their translation choices to the squinty-eyed criticism of colleagues, and one can take issue with a couple of examples here: Mande people have some interesting notions about racial distinctions and their relationship with other peoples of the world, and their word farafinna most closely translates as \"blackskin land\" and refers to their own cultural region, not the translators' far too general Afrique (p. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2328594896", "venue": "34864311", "year": "2006", "title": "archaeological and ecological perspectives on reorganization a case study from the mimbres region of the u s southwest", "label": [ "204852536", "166957645" ], "author": [ "2140531833", "239545061", "2078190219", "637941964" ], "reference": [ "94038944", "126442820", "387672510", "415965504", "587417586", "590399652", "621026266", "745924648", "800326677", "834813776", "1502658467", "1544766211", "1731457293", "1965022777", "1972208464", "1972953917", "1977877809", "1984001466", "1988003185", "1992789098", "1994712562", "1997150190", "1999430286", "1999800330", "2002204630", "2002703202", "2003286925", "2003407034", "2005688421", "2010816843", "2011145663", "2015801259", "2021627051", "2021779887", "2023662607", "2029827496", "2030484124", "2032065013", "2045086779", "2056515248", "2058835923", "2069264187", "2078710742", "2079287052", "2080130571", "2082188349", "2085488373", "2092583077", "2096019312", "2096960126", "2105827100", "2110012718", "2116762437", "2125283220", "2145017657", "2154469923", "2156354973", "2175360117", "2254708165", "2254720840", "2306614416", "2317459293", "2317837148", "2329885121", "2336643860", "2479412439", "2485842839", "2487837484", "2504440958", "2586371457", "2587192647", "2787004050", "2790092973", "2802004990", "2900571617", "2974219360", "2990111796", "2990114468", "2991128660" ], "abstract": "collapse and abandonment dominate the popular literature on prehistoric societies yet we know that reorganization is a more common process by which social and ecological relationships change we explore the process of reorganization using the emerging perspective of resilience theory ecologists and social scientists working within a resilience perspective have argued that reorganization is an important component of long term adaptive cycles but it remains understudied in both social science and ecology one of the central assumptions to emerge from the resilience perspective is that declines in the diversity of social and ecological units contribute to transformations in social and ecological systems we evaluate this assumption using archaeological data which offer an opportunity to investigate a time span rarely examined in studies of resilience and reorganization we focus on the 11th to 13th century in the eastern mimbres area of southwestern new mexico a period within which a substantial reorganization occurred much is known about the regional scale changes that resulted in the depopulation of nearly every large village in the mimbres region what some have referred to as the mimbres collapse our analyses examine both continuity and change in aspects of house and village level reorganization", "title_raw": "Archaeological and ecological perspectives on reorganization : A case study from the mimbres region of the U.S. Southwest", "abstract_raw": "Collapse and abandonment dominate the popular literature on prehistoric societies, yet we know that reorganization is a more common process by which social and ecological relationships change. We explore the process of reorganization using the emerging perspective of resilience theory. Ecologists and social scientists working within a resilience perspective have argued that reorganization is an important component of long-term adaptive cycles, but it remains understudied in both social science and ecology. One of the central assumptions to emerge from the resilience perspective is that declines in the diversity of social and ecological units contribute to transformations in social and ecological systems. We evaluate this assumption using archaeological data, which offer an opportunity to investigate a time span rarely examined in studies of resilience and reorganization. We focus on the 11th to 13th century in the eastern Mimbres area of southwestern New Mexico, a period within which a substantial reorganization occurred. Much is known about the regional-scale changes that resulted in the depopulation of nearly every large village in the Mimbres region, what some have referred to as the \"Mimbres collapse.\" Our analyses examine both continuity and change in aspects of house- and village-level reorganization." }, { "paper": "2033723457", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2006", "title": "michael d clark the american discovery of tradition 1865 1942 baton rouge louisiana state university press 2005 pp ix 268 44 95", "label": [ "52119013" ], "author": [ "2649626130" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Michael D.

Dialogue and Drama: Elements of Greek Tragedy in the Fourth Gospel, by Jo-Ann Brant. Peabody, MA: Hendrickson, 2004. Pp. 320. $19.95 (paper). ISBN 1565639073. The purpose of this book is to explore the relationship of the Fourth Gospel (FG) to Greek tragedy (GT). It is not intertextual analysis that Brant undertakes, but rather the more generic study of the influences that the Greek tragedians may have exerted on the Gospel of John. Brant's overarching perspective is that in many ways the form of the FG is a performance text. Theatrical criticism, particularly of the structuralist variety, provides the perspective and tools with which the text is studied. Four chapters examine how Greek tragedy can enlighten the FG's dramatic structure (ch. 1), speeches (ch. 2), characterization (ch. 3), and distinctive portrayal of Jesus's death (ch. 4). As for how the FG could have knowledge of these tragedies when they appear to no longer have been performed publicly in the first century C.E., Brant notes that educational training in Greek was heavily influenced by past classics. Quintilian ranked the great tragedians with Homer as models to be studied, claims Brant. Quintilian appears to place, however, the comedie poets of Aristophanes, Eupolis, and Cratinus as second to Homer in Attic style (lnst. 10.1.65). But there is no need to cavil because Quintilian also holds up the three great tragedians as exemplars (10.1.67). Moreover, I note that another justification for this type of investigation comes from Dio Chrysostom, who placed the works of Euripides on par with those of Homer and Menander for the training of public speakers (Die. exercit. 6-8). Under the rubric of \"Dramatic Structure,\" Brant proposes nine areas of similarity between the FG and the GT. The first two of them concern prologues and epilogues. Although not formally similar, the prologues in each are distinct from the start of the narrative and provide perspective, not shared by the characters, that allows the audience to jump into the story in medias res. Brant also argues that both Euripides and the fourth evangelist (FE) have contrapuntal imagery in their prologues, which sets up the tension in the body of their works, and that the first person plural pronouns in John 1:14 draws the audience into the performance of the Gospel. She provides but two examples of comparable devices to pull spectators into the tragedies, and only one of them, from Euripides' Alcestis, appears to unambiguously do so. As for the epilogues, in both the GT and the FG they encourage the reader's affirmation of the events that have preceded them. The third through sixth areas of dramatic structure which Brant compares are the settings, the entrances and exits of characters, the transitions between episodes, and the unity of composition. Brant contends that the FE is more attentive to the spatiotemporal matrix of the episodes than are the Synoptics, and that this attention is comparable to the careful location of the episodes by the tragedians. The appearance of characters in the FG is also considered by Brant to be more purposeful than in the Synoptics and more in correspondence with the way characters appear in the tragedies. Scenes are often demarcated by the appearances of characters whose ingresses and egresses have dramatic significance. Some transitions in the FG are said to resemble the choral ode (...) in tragedies by apprising readers of the feelings and beliefs of characters. The concern for the unity of composition found in the tragedies is said to be marked in the FG by (1) creating suspense by frequent references to Jesus's death (which, I note, has an analogue in the references to Jerusalem in the Lukan travel section); (2) a plot line with climax and closure; and (3) a logical set of movements within the plot. Peripeteia, anagnorisis, and pathos constitute the final three foci of this chapter. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2332033328", "venue": "45659824", "year": "2006", "title": "j vroom after antiquity ceramics and society in the aegean from the 7th to the 20th century a c a case study from boeotia central greece archaeological studies leiden university 10 faculty of archaeology u of leiden 2003 pp 412 illus 40 9076368104", "label": [ "166957645", "195244886", "74916050" ], "author": [ "1935866826" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "(J.)

Carl Patrick Burrowes has written a perceptive book about press freedom in Liberia. It spans more than a century, beginning in 1830 when the Liberia Herald newspaper was launched and ending in 1970, a watershed that marked nearly three decades of the suppression of free speech. Burrowes opens a two-prong assault on theories about press freedom and the apparent centrality of ethnicity in Liberian history. The book has six chapters. Burrowes evaluates the theories in Chapter 1. He rejects the idea that government domination of the press stems from its interaction with the people and that suppression of free speech is the result of pressure on national security. He demonstrates that the Liberian government's control of the press occurred when its command of \"power resources\" (e.g., operating capital and capacity to employ and influence) surpassed that of institutional rivals like the press and the church. Furthermore, Burrowes discounts the notion that free speech is tied to social diversity and economic development. Finally, Burrowes disagrees that one's Liberian ethnicity determined whether he or she was deprived of civil liberties. He ascribes this assumption to American liberal ideas that viewed African customs as incompatible with modernization; hence, ethnicity, for example, was marked for elimination because of its \"irrationality\" (p. 13). Chapter 2 covers the Colonial Period (1822-1846) when the Liberian settlement of African-American immigrants was governed by administrators appointed by the American Colonization Society. The press evolved during this period, when the government-owned Liberia Herald newspaper and the Methodist Mission's Africa's Luminary were established. Ideological rivalries between the Baptist and Methodist often spilled over in the press. In spite of the Herald's organic ties to the government, it (along with Africa's Luminary) enjoyed wide latitude of freedom. Three factors accounted for this freedom, among which was the fact that none of the leading institutions, e.g., the press, government, or the church, had absolute control over \"power resources.\" In Chapter 3 (Republican Era, 1847-1899), Burrowes recounts that republican principles like press freedom were guaranteed in the constitution. This era witnessed a rise in the number of newspapers; the church accounted for a sizeable portion, while the rest was political. Like the colonial period, press freedom was ensured by the rough equality in the distribution of \"power resources.\" Chapter 4 describes the declension of republican values (1900-1930), which occurred as Liberia expanded beyond its narrow coastal confines and incorporated a number of African customs that undermined civil liberties; for instance, human pawns and coerced labor thwarted the republican ideals of individual freedom. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2111278895", "venue": "85907422", "year": "2006", "title": "the non pennsylvania town diffusion of urban plan forms in the american west", "label": [ "2549261", "53553401", "162462552" ], "author": [ "2141807994" ], "reference": [ "104459986", "1980290357", "2004380241", "2067937462", "2073161156", "2132618470", "2132972739", "2312819610", "2314859258", "2331580004", "2552875196", "2912474533" ], "abstract": "this study is a delayed response to wilbur zelinsky s celebrated article on the pennsylvania town a groundbreaking attempt to typify statistically and otherwise and map a strong regional urban type that has yet to be replicated with similar specificity for any other cultural region of comparable size in the united states according to the model the essence of the pennsylvania town lies in its dense aggregation of spatially mixed functions in regionally distinctive structures closely spaced and often built of brick set along a generally rectilinear lattice of arboreal streets and well kept alleys frequently focused on a diamond shaped central square 1977 138 geographers and other scholars have long understood u s cities and towns to be the loci of progressive economic and social development and modernity within the nation consequently the analytical emphasis has been much more on seeing them as components of a growing functional system displaying a unitary hierarchical and homogeneous character than as an array of regionally distinct urban place types yet for all the obvious functional similarities between cities large and small across the land regional urban traditions have long existed and continue to play a role in national and local life whether in such aspects as political culture ethnoreligious expression building preferences or environmental accommodations zelinsky s portrait of the pennsylvania town is an inspiring attempt to measure and characterize an observable regional urban type but the need for similarly rigorous typifications in other american cultural contexts remains poorly met this study aims to define some equally essential characteristics of a regional complex of towns in the pacific northwest as a contribution to enlarging the basis for comparison though distant the pacific northwest is intimately related to the rich array of cultural forces that shaped towns and cities in the eastern united states as so ably examined in pennsylvania zelinsky s synopsis relied heavily on urban morphology as a reflexive and accessible key to the cultural personality of communities and it showed how systematic townscape features can define and delimit regional urban complexes distinct from those found elsewhere he argued persuasively that the pennsylvania town was and still is qualitatively and measurably different from its colonial origin counterparts in new england the hudson valley virginia and points south but if the pennsylvania town developed so characteristic an identity did it serve as a compelling design template for urban replication on the successive frontiers of the american west james lemon 1972 argued long ago that the pennsylvanian worldview economically liberal tolerant commercial and energetic helped develop the national character as much as if not more than that of the yankee yorkers or of southern culture and at least rural features of the pennsylvania culture region without question spread to key parts of the midwest rose 1988 ensminger 1992 147 180 the latitudinal migration streams that carried eastern seaboard settlement traditions westward have been well documented hudson 1984 1988 meyer 2000 and one might expect the pennsylvania town to have found physical footing in the west in ways similar to that of the new england town featuring the meeting house or church facing a generous central common larson 1975 wood 1997 but zelinsky concluded that the pennsylvania town was an artifact of its time and place and that other forces rose up to redefine towns to the west with different characteristics most notably a greater looseness in overall density and texture associated with more generous physical dimensions 1 it is often argued that urban places by their nature have always been more cosmopolitan than their rural hinterlands well connected as they are by interregional trade and communication with other centers where innovations if not necessarily originating in towns are quickly adopted and diffused through the network", "title_raw": "THE NON\u2010PENNSYLVANIA TOWN: DIFFUSION OF URBAN PLAN FORMS IN THE AMERICAN WEST*", "abstract_raw": "This study is a delayed response to Wilbur Zelinsky's celebrated article on the Pennsylvania town, a groundbreaking attempt to typify, statistically and otherwise, and map a strong regional urban type that has yet to be replicated with similar specificity for any other cultural region of comparable size in the United States. According to the model, the essence of the Pennsylvania town lies in its \"dense aggregation of spatially mixed functions in regionally distinctive structures, closely spaced and often built of brick, set along a generally rectilinear lattice of arboreal streets and well-kept alleys frequently focused on a diamond-shaped central square\" (1977, 138). Geographers and other scholars have long understood U.S. cities and towns to be the loci of progressive economic and social development and modernity within the nation. Consequently, the analytical emphasis has been much more on seeing them as components of a growing functional system--displaying a unitary, hierarchical, and homogeneous character--than as an array of regionally distinct urban place types. Yet, for all the obvious functional similarities between cities large and small across the land, regional urban traditions have long existed and continue to play a role in national and local life, whether in such aspects as political culture, ethnoreligious expression, building preferences, or environmental accommodations. Zelinsky's portrait of the Pennsylvania town is an inspiring attempt to measure and characterize an observable regional urban type, but the need for similarly rigorous typifications in other American cultural contexts remains poorly met. This study aims to define some equally essential characteristics of a regional complex of towns in the Pacific Northwest as a contribution to enlarging the basis for comparison. Though distant, the Pacific Northwest is intimately related to the rich array of cultural forces that shaped towns and cities in the eastern United States, as so ably examined in Pennsylvania. Zelinsky's synopsis relied heavily on urban morphology as a reflexive and accessible key to the cultural personality of communities, and it showed how systematic townscape features can define and delimit regional urban complexes distinct from those found elsewhere. He argued persuasively that the Pennsylvania town was--and still is--qualitatively and measurably different from its colonial-origin counterparts in New England, the Hudson Valley, Virginia, and points south. But if the Pennsylvania town developed so characteristic an identity, did it serve as a compelling design template for urban replication on the successive frontiers of the American West? James Lemon (1972) argued long ago that the Pennsylvanian worldview--economically liberal, tolerant, commercial, and energetic--helped develop the national character as much as, if not more than, that of the Yankee-Yorkers or of southern culture, and at least rural features of the Pennsylvania culture region without question spread to key parts of the Midwest (Rose 1988; Ensminger 1992, 147-180). The latitudinal migration streams that carried eastern seaboard settlement traditions westward have been well documented (Hudson 1984, 1988; Meyer 2000), and one might expect the Pennsylvania town to have found physical footing in the West in ways similar to that of the New England town, featuring the meeting house or church facing a generous central common (Larson 1975; Wood 1997). But Zelinsky concluded that the Pennsylvania town was an artifact of its time and place and that other forces rose up to redefine towns to the west with different characteristics, most notably a greater looseness in overall density and texture associated with more generous physical dimensions. (1) It is often argued that urban places by their nature have always been more cosmopolitan than their rural hinterlands, well connected as they are by interregional trade and communication with other centers, where innovations, if not necessarily originating in towns, are quickly adopted and diffused through the network. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2038108383", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2006", "title": "diane miller sommerville rape and race in the nineteenth century south chapel hill university of north carolina press 2004 pp xiii 411 cloth 59 95 paper 24 95", "label": [ "2779446402" ], "author": [ "2087194487" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Diane Miller Sommerville.

By John Lliffe. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2005. African Studies 107. Pp. xxiv, 404; 5 maps; 8 illustrations. $80.00 cloth, $28.99 paper. Press headlines remind us daily of the consequences of lapses in honorable behavior in militaries, governments, corporations, and other organizations around the world. Yet we usually use the word \"honor\" without much reflection. Scholars have extensively studied the concept of honor, especially in the Mediterranean and North Africa. In this innovative study, John Iliffe takes up this \"most elusive of concepts\" (p. 4), using it to analyze one thousand years of sub-Saharan African history. In Iliffe's estimation, the coming of colonialism was a watershed event that redirected honor concepts without necessarily destroying them. He defines honor as \"a right to respect\" that exists both subjectively and objectively, as well as vertically and horizontally, meaning that honor is always \"a contested category\" (p. 4). In order to understand Africa and its current problems, which are \"so often attributed to lack of honor, to corruption and cruelty and greed,\" Iliffe contends we must understand codes of honor at work in African history because they \"[express] a group's highest values\" and are \"powerful motivators\" that drive people to act in sometimes self-destructive ways (p. 8). The book is divided into two sections. The first examines the role of heroic and householder honor in precolonial Africa and the effects of Islam and Christianity on indigenous notions of honor. The second analyzes the \"crisis of honour\" that occurred in the wake of colonial conquest, leading to the \"fragmentation and mutation\" of these notions. Throughout, Iliffe traces how diverse forms of heroic and householder honor influenced African men and women in all manner of political and social interactions. For example, he explains the problem of corruption in post-independence African politics as having roots in principles of clientage characteristic of precolonial honor cultures, but which were ill suited to new governments based on European models. Similarly, ostentatious displays of wealth by African leaders can be traced to the central role of display within heroic honor, which had deep historical roots in many parts of Africa. Iliffe's sources are varied, including epic and praise poetry, archival materials, and an array of secondary literature. He pays close attention to the vocabularies that existed historically in various African languages to express notions of honor. This technique yields some wonderful results, most notably in his sophisticated chapter on praise and slander in southern Africa, where Iliffe convincingly marshals evidence to show the workings of gendered honor in one precolonial context. By comparing different peoples living in this war-torn region, Iliffe creates a richly textured portrait of how senses of heroic honor were heavily infused with a masculine military ethos. Yet in the same region, householder honor, which emphasized good standing within the community, economic stability, and maintenance of a stable home life and providing for the family, gave women grounds to fight for \"respectability\" when they were defamed by others. \u2026" }, { "paper": "1946368267", "venue": "184237522", "year": "2006", "title": "answers and echoes the libellus responsionum and the hagiography of north western european mission", "label": [ "520712124" ], "author": [ "2340287357" ], "reference": [ "2002735298", "2101764913", "2105343262", "2313408916" ], "abstract": "this article examines three aspects of augustine of canterbury s libellus responsionum through recent scholarship it provides a summary of the libellus s textual context it also clarifies the very contentious issue of just how familiar the libellus was to missionaries not only those preaching in england but also on the continent and specifically augustine of canterbury and boniface finally in light of the pastoral and textual circumstances it explores the largely neglected question of just how the libellus may or may not have illuminated the various literary features and strata of augustinian and bonifatian biography", "title_raw": "Answers and echoes: the Libellus responsionum and the hagiography of north\u2010western European mission", "abstract_raw": "This article examines three aspects of Augustine of Canterbury's Libellus responsionum.

Photos: Women from Finland and Mozambique (Fotos: Mulheres de Mocambique e da Finl\u00e2ndia.) By Magi Viljanen and Rui Assubuji. Maputo, Moz.: Libris Oyi, 2005. Pp. 150. Historians have developed increasingly sophisticated perspectives on historical images beyond the printed word. As V.Y. Mudimbe and Bogumil Jewsiewicki famously observed, \"Africans tell, sing, produce (through dance, recitation, marionette puppets), sculpt and paint their history.\"1 E.S. Atieno-Odhiambo's recent overview essay on African historiographies in Africa Zamani included a section on \"scopic\" representation, focusing on Belgian Congo genre paintings from the 1920s as an example of \"vernacular history.\"2 The continent's people have also photographed their history. Their photographs, like their paintings and sculpture, can provide a window into the past. Historians have long been interested in photographic images of Africa and Africans, but their early efforts often emerged from research in colonial and mission archives. Such archival photographs often featured the colonizers' gaze upon the colonized and the colonizers' photographic portraits of themselves and each other.3 Photographs taken by Africans of Africans, such as the photographic portraits Mozambican Sebastao Langa took of weddings, christenings, and family gatherings in Mozambique from the forties through the sixties, were less apt to show up in colonial and mission archives, but have also captured historians' attention.4 Photographic production along these lines might not always or best be described as \"vernacular history,\" but the range of work is certainly of interest. Mozambique's published and archival photographic collections include the notable set of fifteen photographic albums published in 1929, with the colonial government's support, by photographer Jose dos Santos Rufino. Aside from the requisite portraits of the appropriate political leaders, Santos Rufino's volumes, entitled Albuns Fotograficos e Descritivos de Mocambique,5 were consistently stronger on buildings, infrastructure, and broad vistas than on people. Later photographic collections published during the New State regime, from the 1930s to 1974, followed suit, but made increasing use of aerial vistas. Joao Loureiro's book, Memorias de Lourenco Marques: Uma Visao do Passado da Cidade de Maputo (Lisbon, 2003), follows very much in this tradition. Both views of the city's past are eerily void of people. Perhaps Loureiro chose not to include the photographs that dominated press coverage, the social pages, and municipal events in the late colonial era. By the 1960s and early 1970s such photographs so heavily featured the colony's white minority, they actually seemed to support the surreal logo Portugal had cobbled into the sidewalks of the city's main square, Praca Mouzinho de Albuquerque: \"Aqui e Portugal\"-this is Portugal. In contrast, the two books reviewed here focus explicitly on people, either in formal portraits or capturing them while they are going about their daily or nightly business. The photographs in both collections are not only stunningly beautiful, they are also of great interest to historians, humanists, artists, and social scientists. The text components of both books are printed in English and Portuguese. Although there are few significant errors, the elegant Portuguese is unfortunately inadequately captured by the English translation. The first book, entitled Our Nightly Bread or Nossa Pao de Cada Noite, is a collection of eighty black and white photographs taken by Ricardo Rangel. Rangel is the senior and perhaps best known of Mozambique's many distinguished contemporary photographers. As the founder of the Centro de Formacao Fotografica, he also helped train several generations of photographers, including Rui Assubuji, the Mozambican photographer featured in the second volume, Photos: Women from Finland and Mozambique. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2150276230", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2006", "title": "gretchen murphy hemispheric imaginings the monroe doctrine and narratives of u s empire new americanists durham n c duke university press 2005 pp xi 195 cloth 74 95 paper 21 95", "label": [ "2778495208", "2778828899" ], "author": [ "2002628175" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Gretchen Murphy.

By Jan Kuhanen. University of Joensuu Publications in the Humanities 37. Joensuu, Finland: University of Joensuu, 2005. Pp. 434; 8 illustrations. Jan Kuhanen places the history of disease and colonial medicine in the context of the socioeconomic and political transformations brought to Uganda by British colonial rule. Kuhanen's primary interest is the impact of colonial imposition in the decades following the establishment of the Protectorate in 1894. The author analyzes the creation of a landed oligarchy through the 1900 Buganda Agreement as well as the coercive demands made by the colonial state through forced labor and taxation. What makes Kuhanen's analysis of this period unique is the emphasis he places on nutrition, culminating in a discussion of the relationship between malnutrition, disease, and reproduction. Kuhanen also brings together, in a single narrative, earlier accounts of the sleeping sickness epidemic and the antisyphilis campaign that consumed colonial and missionary endeavors to combat disease in the initial decades of colonial rule. In his reassessment of the syphilis epidemic, he draws his most provocative conclusion that the slow population growth observed in Buganda and Bunyoro was the result of malnutrition rather than venereal disease. According to Kuhanen, colonial imposition contributed to a process of social, economic, and political destabilization that left the peasantry destitute, impoverished, and increasingly vulnerable to \"recurrent food shortages, famines and epidemics\" (p. 242). Poverty, Health and Reproduction is based on a variety of documents including travelers' accounts, colonial reports, and scientific publications and papers, gathered from the University of Joensuu, London, and Uganda. The interpretation echoes the important previous works on Uganda. With the exception of Busoga, a region that figures prominently in sections concerning famine and sleeping sickness, Kuhanen focuses almost exclusively on the kingdoms of Ouganda and Bunyoro. This regional emphasis is most pronounced in the initial chapters that serve to establish the social, economic, and political transformations underlying a series of famines and epidemic and endemic diseases documented in later chapters. The study begins with the precolonial period as a standard against which to measure the impact of colonialism and to illustrate the dynamic and far from idyllic conditions that prevailed prior to colonization. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2357150561", "venue": "93676754", "year": "2006", "title": "a companion to latin american film", "label": [ "74916050" ], "author": [ "2167315606", "2111174134" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "A Companion to Latin American Film", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2001810515", "venue": "31769938", "year": "2006", "title": "goscelin of st bertin the book of encouragement and consolation liber confortatorius the letter of goscelin to the recluse eva edited by monika otter library of medieval women pp viii 181 cambridge d s brewer 2004 40 1 84384 015 4", "label": [ "74916050" ], "author": [ "1994682013" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Goscelin of St Bertin, The book of encouragement and consolation [Liber confortatorius].

Ortelius's Theatrum Orbis Terrarum, the first of the great sixteenth-century atlases, was translated into English in 1606, and Mercator's Atlas followed it thirty years later. Christopher Saxton's wall maps and his atlas of the counties of England and Wales had introduced a new level of cartographic precision to the late sixteenth century, and by the 1650s these new technologies, and the rising expectations of cartographic accuracy and precision which they embodied, had become all but ingrained in the wider culture. Voyages to Guiana, Virginia, and Bermuda had laid the groundwork for English colonies in the Americas so that by mid-century even the most exotic lands had become imaginatively accessible and cartographically familiar. As these outposts of the New World grew more settled, the older sense of 'the strangeness of the boundaries'1 was overlaid with a new domestication. These foreign lands were described and imagined as little extensions of England, still lost in the distance, but now largely wrapped in the comfort of familiar customs, products, and agricultural goods.But if the New World's sense of the foreign and exotic was markedly diminished, it did not simply disappear. It was instead incorporated into a new and changing balance of Old World and New. For while the faith in mapped accuracy and representational power of the cartographic imagination allowed even the world's exotic edges to be folded back into the familiarity of the centre, it also brought a countering pressure in which the very familiarity of the domestic landscape came to be seen through the lens of the exotic. The centre became de-centred, and the aura of mystery and instability linked to distant lands was transmuted, internalized, and brought home to the most domestic of spaces.By the middle of the seventeenth century, the precision and certainty of England's mapped representations stood in sharp contrast to other perceptions in and of the country. The political and social instability of the English Revolution filled the historical moment until even that most ancient and solid of foundations - the enduring nature of kingship, itself - was overthrown. The ability of maps to represent a fixed and orderly country now exceeded the nation's ability to embody it. New levels of political anxiety and instability created an altered relationship between the map and the territory, so that the orderly delineation of geographical outline and landscape would have seemed all but illusory in the face of so much fundamental disruption. In such a revolutionary period, the possibilities of cartography altered to reflect a new relationship of map and nation, signifier and signified. Mapping became an expression of political and poetic licence - a way, not just to represent an ordered country, but to limit and confine the extent of its disorder.In such a period the political and poetic become fundamentally interleaved, and for no one was this more true than Andrew Marvell. As a poet he strove for a unique kind of linguistic refinement, an almost alchemical distillation of order and precision in the face of pervading anxiety. And of the various scientific and cultural discourses he incorporated into his poetry, the cultural power of maps and geography were of particular, and surprising, value. In his hands the discourse of cartographic precision became an unexpected tool for addressing the unsettling ambiguities of historical action. He focused his particular blend of lapidary precision and interrogative intelligence on to the cartographic expectations of his time, and bent them to his use. By inserting a new and lurking instability into the epistemology of precision, he turned the cultural assumptions of cartographic accuracy and objectivity back on themselves as a means of highlighting, not the familiar expectations of fixity and control, but a new and widespread anxiety about political unravelling. \u2026" }, { "paper": "292974972", "venue": "161550498", "year": "2006", "title": "the battle of cassinga 4 may 1978 a historical reassessment part 1 the course of the battle and ensuing controversy", "label": [ "74916050", "29598333", "2778627824" ], "author": [ "2065813280" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "the battle of cassinga between paratroopers of the south african defence force sadf and elements of swapo on 4 may 1978 was shrouded in controversy right from the start these military hostilities in the south of angola occurred against the background of specific events in south west africa now namibia in this article the controversy is examined in detail the importance of oral tradition accounts currently the subject of discussion in south african historiography is acknowledged in this article via verbatim transcriptions of interviews with the commander of the south african parachute brigade maj gen mj du plessis and other relevant role players", "title_raw": "The Battle of Cassinga, 4 May 1978 : a historical reassessment.

Owing to the diversity of occupation strategies, which can combine varying levels of permanence with any number of economic subsistence strategies and behavioral characteristics, archaeologists have remained divided over which methodological approaches are the most suitable. In the southern Levant, sedentary and mobile groups enjoyed a close and persistent relationship, which stimulated a flexible approach to occupation strategies, and allowed for fluctuations in levels of permanence among the same social groups through time. Such fluctuations have generated a problematic material record that can contain signs of both sedentary and mobile behaviors. Examination of the agriculturally marginal Middle Bronze II settlement of Zahrat adh-Dhra\u2018 1, located on the Dead Sea Plain of Jordan, illustrates the difficulties associated with interpreting occupation strategies for southern Levantine sites. The material culture record from the site, comprising evidence for economic subsistence, trade, settlement and behavior, provides at times conflicting signals for a sedentary, semi-sedentary (transhumant), or possibly non-sedentary occupation. Due to a lack of clearly prescribed indices for interpreting the permanence levels of sites, interpretations must rely on a flexible, inductive approach, which seeks to balance suites of evidence in preference to a rigid correlation with ethnographically derived models." }, { "paper": "2316352809", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2006", "title": "barbara caine bombay to bloomsbury a biography of the strachey family new york oxford university press 2005 pp xvii 488 35 00", "label": [ "520712124", "52119013" ], "author": [ "2619118241" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "BARBARA CAINE.

In this article I argue that to Swahili women on the coast, the clothing associated with the fashion repertoire of elite Manyema women also symbolized the desirability of their independence and power, and that elite Manyema women's public presentations of themselves signified a power and independence that both men and women found attractive, albeit for very different reasons. Among Swahili women in the Swahili entrepots of the hinterland, and on the Swahili Coast and in Zanzibar, Manyema women and their fashions became intricately tied to, and invested in, what began as an elaborately patterned rectangular piece of cloth and eventually developed into the iconic cloth we now know as the kanga. This article builds on the work of Fair, Byfield, and Allman and examines the advent of the kanga in an entirely new light.2 Drawing from Swahili texts and the accounts of explorers, travelers, and missionaries, I argue that the kanga came to symbolize the power of an African community with origins in Central Africa and embody notions of Manyema ethnicity. The creation of the kanga is intricately tied to the negotiation of a new ethnicity: an ethnicity that emerged after Zanzibari traders expanded their frontier into the Central African area northwest of Ujiji, destroying existing communities in the process. As the Zanzibar! established their authority with guns and other weapons, they murdered many adult men and enslaved women and children. Despite the devastation of their communities, elements of the indigenous groups moved east across Lake Tanganyika where they forged a new identity as Manyema. Most historical writing on the central route of the East African ivory and slave trade mentions the use of cloth in bargaining for passage through different communities along the caravan path and in the markets of Ujiji, Uvira, and other towns with large market exchanges. However, little attention has been paid to the intersection of the ivory and slave trade caravans and the ramifications of the introduction of these new types of cloths into the Zanzibari entrepots and neighboring African communities. The central route of the East African slave trade connected the peoples of Central Africa to the Swahili Coast and Zanzibar, and forever altered fashion and notions of female sexuality and behavior in Zanzibar and East Africa. While Fair has demonstrated the ways that women by the turn of the twentieth century had made Zanzibar \"the Paris of East Africa,\" we do not know exactly what sparked local entrepreneurs' interest in making kangas or why Swahili women almost immediately coveted and desired to procure kangas.3 What was the impetus that led to this great interest? In this article I present yet another layer to the story of the emergence of the kanga at the time of the abolition of the slave trade in Zanzibar. Indian merchants successfully marketed the kanga to a newly emerging clientele of former slaves who, as free women and men, were able to purchase items that could help them claim a new, free identity. But why was it the kanga that became the object of desire, and not some other item of clothing or jewelry? What did the kanga promise or provide that other things did not? I argue here that the kanga emerged in the context of the ivory and slave trade: it emerged from Manyema women's participation in the caravans and their performance of what it meant to be an elite Manyema woman as they traveled from the area northeast of Lake Tanganyika, across the central route of the East African slave route, into Zanzibar and back again. Connections: Central Africa, Ujiji, Zanzibar In 1857, Zanzibari women favored red and blue kisitu: a length of stained cotton cloth wrapped tightly around the breast that extended to the feet. \u2026" }, { "paper": "1229162338", "venue": "998751717", "year": "2006", "title": "the cambridge encyclopedia of the world s ancient languages", "label": [ "74916050" ], "author": [ "2091010154", "2969417878" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "The Cambridge encyclopedia of the world's ancient languages", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2148551487", "venue": "173880072", "year": "2006", "title": "figures figurines and colin renfrew", "label": [ "52119013" ], "author": [ "2986294411" ], "reference": [ "1599993781" ], "abstract": "are modern artworks really comparable in any serious way to ancient monuments has colin renfrew changed sides in the conflict of reason with intuition in modern archaeology leo klejn thinks so colin renfrew responds below", "title_raw": "Figures, figurines and Colin Renfrew", "abstract_raw": "Are modern artworks really comparable in any serious way to ancient monuments?

Look at Her Legs", "abstract_raw": "SOCIETY FOR INTEGRATIVE AND COMPARATIVE BIOLOGY MEETING\n> SOCIETY FOR INTEGRATIVE AND COMPARATIVE BIOLOGY MEETING, 4\u20138 JANUARY, ORLANDO, FLORIDA \n\nThe fossil Lucy is the most famous example of Australopithecus afarensis , a hominid that lived between 3.9 million and 3 million years ago. Since her discovery in 1974, anthropologists have been arguing over how she moved, because although she looks a bit like a chimpanzee, her pelvis, legs, spine, and skull suggest she walked upright. Nonetheless, her short legs, long arms, and other features indicate that she spent a lot of time in trees.\n\nNow David Carrier, a comparative physiologist at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City, has jumped into the fray with a provocative idea about Lucy's legs. In earlier studies with dogs, he had found that short legs provide mechanical benefits during fights. Pit bulls' short limbs, for example, aid stability and are tough enough to sustain attack without breaking.\n\nCarrier contends that Lucy and other australopithecines also had bodies built for defense against each other: Their short legs may have provided a competitive edge when males battled rival suitors.\n\nThere's no fossil evidence of ancient hominid battles, so Carrier tested his idea indirectly, by analyzing living apes. In great apes, males square off over females, and natural selection has favored large size in these males, with females being more diminutive. Fossil data indicate that males were likewise the brutes of A. afarensis . Other researchers have established that the more competitive the males, the larger the overall size differences between the sexes.\n\nSo Carrier used size sexual dimorphism as a proxy for aggression within a species. Using data in the literature, he was able to analyze nine primate species, including gibbons, chimps, gorillas, orangutans, African monkeys, and humans. He found that the greater the body size difference between males and females, the shorter the relative leg length. To Carrier, this confirms that apes with more male competition tend to have shorter legs. He argued at the meeting that australopithecines' short legs may have helped body stability when males fought each other for females. Thus male-versus-male competition may have outweighed the need for efficient walking or running.\n\nBut others say that so far the evidence is slim. \u201cIt's just storytelling,\u201d says comparative biologist Frank Fish of West Chester University in Pennsylvania. The work \u201cshould generate a lot of controversy,\u201d agrees Roshna Wunderlich, a physical anthropologist at James Madison University in Harrisonburg, Virginia. \u201cHe has a fairly strong correlation, but he needs to establish causality.\u201d Nonetheless, the notion that limbs are shaped by more than locomotion \u201cis a really creative idea,\u201d says Elizabeth Brainerd, a comparative morphologist at Brown University." }, { "paper": "2005649290", "venue": "998751717", "year": "2006", "title": "ruling the later roman empire review", "label": [ "550479007", "195244886", "74916050" ], "author": [ "2647098059" ], "reference": [ "619278509", "2031917882", "2075452716" ], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Ruling the Later Roman Empire (review)", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2009189238", "venue": "203378611", "year": "2006", "title": "ruling eldership in civil war england the scottish kirk and early new england a comparative study of secular and spiritual aspects", "label": [ "551968917", "81631423" ], "author": [ "2499412802" ], "reference": [ "68329908", "586457578", "591615231", "627118397", "652626948", "1484952942", "1511495533", "1559260525", "1573811437", "1973973362", "1976791839", "2000244367", "2016701694", "2022303593", "2027154048", "2042894429", "2057938252", "2064588311", "2080743101", "2080854841", "2083279336", "2089456764", "2140311581", "2323326395", "2325708588", "2796245984" ], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Ruling eldership in civil war england, the scottish kirk, and early New England : A comparative study of secular and spiritual aspects", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2169029844", "venue": "31769938", "year": "2006", "title": "commonwealth principles republican writing of the english revolution by jonathan scott pp xii 402 cambridge cambridge university press 2004 45 0 521 84375 8", "label": [ "74916050", "2777826127" ], "author": [ "2718161959" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Commonwealth principles.

To begin, I would reject three widely accepted notions. First, myths are not sacred narratives. Although many myths claim sacred status, in this they misrecognize their own nature, for they are human stories, like any other. They simply make more exaggerated claims to a more elevated kind of authority. Second, myths are not collective narratives or the speech of any group as a whole. Rather, they are stories that are told and retold in countless variants. Often the authorship of these variants is unacknowledged, forgotten, or deliberately hidden, but in its details each variant advances the specific interests of those responsible for its production, revision, and circulation. These anonymous agents and absent authors misrepresent themselves\u2014and those for whom they speak\u2014as the group as a whole. Third, myths are neither false stories, nor true, but simply stories that claim to speak with authority about issues of deep importance. Sometimes these claims succeed and sometimes they fail, and the same story can change its status over time from myth to fable and back again, since such status is a function of reception." }, { "paper": "1543030876", "venue": "169569900", "year": "2006", "title": "antecedents to modern rwanda the nyiginya kingdom", "label": [ "29598333", "2780974818", "204852536", "74916050", "53553401" ], "author": [ "2608540880" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "antecedents to modern rwanda the nyiginya kingdom by jan vansina madison wise university of wisconsin press 2004 pp 354 maps charts 65 00 cloth 24 95 paper jan vansina has worked on the history of the interlacustrine kingdoms and rwanda in particular for much of his intellectual career in some respects this book represents the fruit of nearly half a century of research and reflection not just on the history of rwanda but also on history and historiography in general it is not surprising then that vansina writes about this topic with ease and with an absolute command of the relevant sources this book vansina s own english translation of the french original is intended to be a work for non specialists in rwanda history to understand and appreciate the history of the country however that may be it is also a radical break with most previous historiographies of the topic and presents the reader with a combination of new insights and interpretations along with a more accessible vision of earlier work that he has published in more technical works while the principal result of vansina s work is a major revision of the received interpretation of rwanda history the book is at the same time a general history delving into the prehistoric background of the region using archaeology and the familiar words and things approach to historical linguistics but this prosaic beginning is followed by a critique of oral tradition that more or less completely abandons the scheme of history set down in the royal traditions and recorded and modernized by more recent rwandaise historians as well as western scholars who follow them vansina shows that the oral traditions are a fairly recent creation the work of a tightly related group of oral historians histologers working if not in direct collaboration at least with considerable interaction and agreement to support claims of the kingdom as it emerged in the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries vansina attacks the traditional chronology by revising the kinglist arguing that many of the stories about early kings are fragments of unrelated stories attached to a fictitious dynasty having dealt this serious blow to oral history as a source however vansina continues using it as his principal means of reconstructing the early history of rwanda as indeed he must since it is the only source available to write the history of the country he does so by arguing that it is still possible to recover usable history from the materials once one extricates the stories from the matrix of analysis created by the court historians and by accepting that the degree of probability that one can attach to any given statement based on tradition is lower than we might have originally thought", "title_raw": "Antecedents to Modern Rwanda: The Nyiginya Kingdom", "abstract_raw": "Antecedents to Modern Rwanda: The Nyiginya Kingdom. By Jan Vansina. Madison, Wise.: University of Wisconsin Press, 2004. Pp. 354; maps, charts. $65.00 cloth, $24.95 paper. Jan Vansina has worked on the history of the Interlacustrine Kingdoms, and Rwanda in particular, for much of his intellectual career. In some respects this book represents the fruit of nearly half a century of research and reflection, not just on the history of Rwanda, but also on history and historiography in general. It is not surprising then that Vansina writes about this topic with ease and with an absolute command of the relevant sources. This book, Vansina's own English translation of the French original, is intended to be a work for non-specialists in Rwanda history to understand and appreciate the history of the country. However that may be, it is also a radical break with most previous historiographies of the topic and presents the reader with a combination of new insights and interpretations along with a more accessible vision of earlier work that he has published in more technical works. While the principal result of Vansina's work is a major revision of the received interpretation of Rwanda history, the book is at the same time a general history, delving into the prehistoric background of the region using archaeology and the familiar \"words and things\" approach to historical linguistics. But this prosaic beginning is followed by a critique of oral tradition that more or less completely abandons the scheme of history set down in the royal traditions and recorded and modernized by more recent Rwandaise historians (as well as Western scholars who follow them). Vansina shows that the oral traditions are a fairly recent creation, the work of a tightly related group of oral historians (histologers) working, if not in direct collaboration, at least with considerable interaction and agreement to support claims of the kingdom as it emerged in the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Vansina attacks the traditional chronology by revising the kinglist, arguing that many of the stories about early kings are fragments of unrelated stories attached to a fictitious dynasty. Having dealt this serious blow to oral history as a source, however, Vansina continues using it as his principal means of reconstructing the early history of Rwanda, as indeed he must since it is the only source available to write the history of the country. He does so by arguing that it is still possible to recover usable history from the materials once one extricates the stories from the matrix of analysis created by the court historians, and by accepting that the degree of probability that one can attach to any given statement based on tradition is lower than we might have originally thought. \u2026" }, { "paper": "1971335519", "venue": "152567572", "year": "2006", "title": "the portico of the danaids a new reconstruction", "label": [ "195244886", "109902967", "112731501" ], "author": [ "2556707919" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "the palatine complex constructed by octavian between 36 and 28 b c included the temple of apollo the portico of the danaids greek and latin libraries and octavian s own residence although excavations of the past 50 years have revealed much of this monumental complex the design and location of the portico of the danaids remain debated this article draws on field research previously published archaeological reports literary evidence and architectural comparanda to argue that the portico stood on the terrace of the temple of apollo and to reconstruct the elevation as a two story doric colonnade in which the statues of the danaids alternated with the columns of the second story in addition to shedding new light on both the location and appearance of the portico this article reveals how the cross fertilization of the orders and arithmetic relationships throughout the elevation generated a coherent aesthetic whole in so doing this study offers new insights into the so called architectural revolution of the triumviral period and highlights the significance of the palatine complex within this shift", "title_raw": "The portico of the danaids : A new reconstruction", "abstract_raw": "The Palatine complex, constructed by Octavian between 36 and 28 B.C., included the Temple of Apollo, the Portico of the Danaids, Greek and Latin libraries, and Octavian's own residence.

In this fascinating account of northern Igboland from the period just prior to colonial rule to the postcolonial period, Nwando Achebe makes clear her disdain for the view that colonialism liberated the African woman from \"oppressive traditional systems.\" Achebe maintains that in precolonial Nsukka women had many avenues to power that colonialism eroded, some completely and permanently. This does not, however, preclude her from acknowledging those ways in which colonialism opened up new opportunities to women. Achebe argues that to discuss political power in precolonial Igbo societies without taking into account the role of the spiritual world in earthly matters does not adequately address the ways in which power actually worked. This is a point worth making; forty years ago the historian of religion Elizabeth Isichei made this same point, but it is not often put in practice.1 According to Achebe, in the \"spiritual political constituency of government,\" \"the female principle\" held greater power than the male, as \"goddesses were the primary figures of power and authority\" (p. 37). Indeed, in reference to men who became \"male priestesses,\" Achebe suggests that these men \"chose to become women in a realm that offers women and the female principle the greatest potential for religious, political, and economic prominence in society\" (p. 230). Based on an extensive body of oral data, the book is organized into five chapters, as well as a preface (\"Nkwado\") and a conclusion (\"Mmechi\"). The first chapter introduces Nsukka, sets out the scope of the author's work, and reviews the literature in the study of Igbo women and Igbo societies in general. The footnotes contain a wealth of sources, published as well as unpublished, and this will certainly be very welcome to other researchers. \"Nsukka Division,\" a colonial creation, is on the northern tip of Igboland, a large tenitory sharing borders with other Igbo Divisions as well as the tenitories of the Igala and Idoma. Much of Nsukka Division did not come under British colonial rule until the 1920s. Chapter 2 discusses \"Medicines and Goddesses, Priestesses and Prophetesses\" in Nsukka. Achebe uses nine case studies to illustrate the ways in which religiosity and the \"female principle\" intersected. Particularly fascinating is the case of Adoro, a wife-manying goddess, who began life as a female medicine created to offer protection to citizens of a community devastated by war. This, the longest chapter, and the last chapter, are the most interesting in the book. Chapter 3 examines the economic life of Nsukka women. We are introduced to two farmers, two potters, a weaver, and a trader. Achebe challenges the dominant thesis that Igbo women did not engage in long-distance trade, arguing that Nsukka women were able to exploit polygyny and childlessness to enhance their trade activities, and that the Nsukka practice of exogamy gave otu ndiomuala (assembly of wives) a wide network of contacts. For long-distance trade women traveled in bands \"made up of as many as 30 women\" (p. 148). Women who did well economically parlayed that success into political and social power by buying titles and luxuries for themselves, their loved ones, and friends. Wealthy women also married wives for themselves as well as for their husbands.2 In the precolonial period, women needed little in the way of capital to embark upon a career. This was to change under colonial rule. In the end, Achebe concludes, colonialism had both positive and negative consequences for women in the economic realm. In Chapter 4, \"Women in Community Politics,\" Achebe reiterates her position that \"the precolonial political structure in Nsukka Division . \u2026" }, { "paper": "2000704068", "venue": "77777823", "year": "2007", "title": "blacks of the rosary memory and history in minas gerais brazil review", "label": [ "2549261" ], "author": [ "2681106610" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Blacks of the Rosary: Memory and History in Minas Gerais, Brazil (review)", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2036637077", "venue": "164635374", "year": "2007", "title": "the fate of a stereotype little paris", "label": [ "550479007", "195244886", "60671577" ], "author": [ "1688532958" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "maladies of the modern romanian cultural consciousness like many other peripheral nations romania has always been in search of strategies for being accepted as a full f ledged member of the western european club throughout the nineteenth and twentieth centuries the interminable debates concerning national identity focused repeatedly on the cultural heritage of the roman empire and the romance origins of the romanian language membership of the national idiom in the club of romance languages was viewed as an irrefutable proof of a western european connection and allegiance eventually for most romanians romance meant french modern france was regarded as the most dignified heir of the late roman empire not only economically and politically but also culturally as a consequence france and its capital city became a mecca for young romanian intellectuals seeking a western european education over the two last centuries the fascination with parisian and french models as well as the effort to transplant french culture in bucharest and romanian culture in paris took many forms among the most notable is the topographic symbol little paris the semiofficial name of the romanian capital during the first half of the twentieth century in this respect romania was not a singular case in eastern europe a series of prestigious urban models such as the fourth rome little paris and the athens of the baltic rim able to meet the local requirements of legitimacy have been manufactured in this way deprived of their plain topographic meaning real urban spaces such as rome paris athens vienna and berlin have been superimposed over various cultural knots such as bucharest riga saint petersburg and budapest to compensate for the lack of a dignified identity each time that a city proclaimed another city its signifiant to legitimate itself in symbolic terms a 1 2 2 1", "title_raw": "The Fate of a Stereotype: Little Paris", "abstract_raw": "maladies of the modern Romanian cultural consciousness.

Membership of the national idiom in the club of Romance languages was viewed as an irrefutable proof of a western European connection and allegiance. Eventually, for most Romanians, Romance meant French. Modern France was regarded as the most dignified heir of the late Roman Empire, not only economically and politically but also culturally. As a consequence, France and its capital city became a mecca for young Romanian intellectuals seeking a western European education. Over the two last centuries, the fascination with Parisian and French models, as well as the effort to transplant French culture in Bucharest and Romanian culture in Paris, took many forms. Among the most notable is the topographic symbol \u201cLittle Paris,\u201d the semiofficial name of the Romanian capital during the first half of the twentieth century.

IS THERE A CHINESE MODE OF HISTORICAL THINKING? A CROSS\u2010CULTURAL ANALYSIS", "abstract_raw": "Taking Chun-chieh Huang's ruminations on the defining character of Chinese historical thinking as a starting point, this essay discusses the ways in which historical cultures and traditions are compared and contrasted and explores some new ways of thinking. It argues that cultural comparisons often constitute two-way traffic (one begins to examine itself after encountering the other) and that attempts to characterize one historical culture, such as that of China, are often made relationally and temporally. When the Chinese tradition of historiography is perceived and presented in the West, it has been regarded more or less as a counterexample against which the \"unique\" traits of Western historical thinking are thrown into relief. Given the hegemonic influence of Western scholarship in modern times, latter-day Chinese historians also valorize the East-West dichotomy. A closer look at this dichotomy, or the characterization of both cultures, reveals that it is not only relative but also relational and temporal. When the modern Chinese appeared impressed by the rigor of Rankean critical historiography, for example, they were essentially attempting to rediscover their own cultural past, for example, the eighteenth-century tradition of evidential learning, in adapting to the changing world. Our task today, the essay contends, is to historicize the specific context within which cultural comparisons are made and to go beyond readily accepted characterizations in order to reassess certain elements in a given culture, to apply historical wisdom, and to cope with the challenges we now face." }, { "paper": "131581464", "venue": "5750412", "year": "2007", "title": "women and history outside the academy", "label": [ "29598333", "2778098723" ], "author": [ "2559677196" ], "reference": [ "614379614", "658004573", "1535241993", "1981787157", "2001405145", "2021003719", "2027749242", "2031483045", "2104079230", "2317927368", "2320908959", "2327545051", "2771115121", "2795418031" ], "abstract": "history dates back to the earliest writings on the subject the rich and long history of women writing teaching and researching in the field ofamerican history however is obscured by narrow disciplinary definitions of what actually counts as history and who is qualified to represent it this article explores the professionalization and masculinization of history within the academy that took place in the second half of the nineteenth century and the contributions of women working as writers teachers archivists and scholars outside the confines of academic history departments emblematic of this important work are the efforts of sarah bolton angie debo dorothy porter molly murphy macgregor and mary kay thompson tetreault bolton s biographies of exceptional women of the nineteenth century debo s ethnohistories of native americans 1 porter s archives of the african diaspora macgregor s national women s history project and tetreault s feminist phase theory and feminist pedagogy2 have broadened the scope method and uses of history acknowledging these women s work expands our view of what counts as history and helps to make the disciplinary practices of history transparent exposing their epistemological and methodological underpinnings to scrutiny an examination of these contributions also serves to correct the misperception that women have come lately to the business of writing history", "title_raw": "Women and History: Outside the Academy", "abstract_raw": "history dates back to the earliest writings on the subject.

This article explores the professionalization and masculinization of history within the academy that took place in the second half of the nineteenth century and the contributions of women working as writers, teachers, archivists, and scholars outside the confines of academic history departments. Emblematic of this important work are the efforts of Sarah Bolton, Angie Debo, Dorothy Porter, Molly Murphy MacGregor, and Mary Kay Thompson Tetreault. Bolton's biographies of exceptional women of the nineteenth century, Debo's ethnohistories of Native Americans,1 Porter's archives of the African Diaspora, MacGregor's National Women's History Project, and Tetreault's feminist phase theory and feminist pedagogy2 have broadened the scope, method and uses of history. Acknowledging these women's work expands our view of what counts as history and helps to make the disciplinary practices of history transparent, exposing their epistemological and methodological underpinnings to scrutiny.

We identify two cycles of population growth and decline, the earlier and smaller peaking in the late-A.D. 800s, the later and larger in the mid-A.D. 1200s. We also identify several episodes of immigration. Formation of aggregated settlements, which we term community centers, is positively correlated with increasing population and the time elapsed in each settlement cycle, and it persists during periods of regional population decline, but it does not correlate with climatic variation averaged over periods. Architectural and land-use practices depleted pinyon-juniper woodlands during the first cycle, but more stable field systems and greater recycling of construction timber resulted in more sustainable management of wood resources during the second cycle, despite much higher population densities. Our estimates for maize production are lower than previous estimates, especially for the A.D. 1200s, when population reached its peak in the study area. Even so, considerable potential agricultural production remained unused in the decades that immediately preceded the complete depopulation of our study area." }, { "paper": "3022421999", "venue": "202848731", "year": "2007", "title": "reviewlandscapes of power and identity comparative histories in the sonoran desert and the forests of amazonia from colony to republic cynthia radding duke university press durham and london 2005 xv xxiv 431 pages us 24 95 paperback", "label": [ "2549261" ], "author": [ "1845188126" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "ReviewLandscapes of Power and Identity: Comparative Histories in the Sonoran Desert and the Forests of Amazonia from Colony to Republic, Cynthia Radding, Duke University Press, Durham and London (2005), xv\u2013xxiv + 431 pages, US$24.95 paperback", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "1994898165", "venue": "65256140", "year": "2007", "title": "roads to change in maya guatemala a field school approach to understanding the k iche by john p hawkins walter randolph adams", "label": [ "179335157" ], "author": [ "2554148708" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Roads to change in Maya Guatemala: a field school approach to understanding the K\u2019iche\u2019\u2013 By John P.

Edited by Benjamin Lawrance, Emily Osborn, and Richard Roberts, Intermediaries, Interpreters, and Clerks is a compilation of papers presented at the eighth Stanford- Berkeley Symposium on Law and Colonialism in Africa convened by the editors at Stanford University in May 2002. The original objective of the conference was to explore how African intermediaries shaped colonial legal institutions, but the papers presented, as reflected in this publication, addressed \"the wider roles of African intermediaries in the making of modern Africa\" (p. vii). They brought to center stage of African colonial historiography the activities of previously marginalized African colonial intermediaries including, \"bush lawyers,\" servants, and messengers, besides interpreters, translators, and clerks. In compiling the present volume, therefore, the editors embraced the activities and impact of African intermediaries in the making of modern Africa as its major theme. The salience and timeliness of Intermediaries, Interpreters, and Clerks hardly requires any exaggeration. For this reviewer especially, whose research covers African interpreters and similar mediators in colonial Senegal, this volume represents an important contribution to African colonial historiography to the extent that it puts the spotlight on the crucial, albeit ambiguous, roles of African go-betweens in shaping relations not only between Africans and Europeans but also among Africans themselves during the colonial period. The chapters by Osborn, David Pratten, and Maurice Amutabi, for example, probe the activities of ordinary African administrative employees in French Guinea, Nigeria, and Kenya, respectively, to reveal how power, authority, and knowledge intersected and mutated. Other contributors include Lawrance, Ruth Ginio, Jean-Herve Jezequel, Ralph Austen, Brett Shadle, and Andreas Eckert, whose essays cover intermediaries in British Lome (Togo, 1914-1920), French West Africa, Mali, Cameroon, Kenya, and Tanzania. West Africa indeed is more extensively represented in the volume than other parts of the continent. Little wonder, therefore, that in addition to the papers selected from among those presented originally at the conference, the editors solicited contributions on South Africa from Roger Levine and Thomas McClendon to give the volume a better geographical balance. Collectively the essays present intriguing analyses of the conflicts and negotiations as well as opportunities and constraints that typified daily interactions in colonial Africa. Thus they help us understand more profoundly that relations between European colonizers and Africans were far more intricate, contradictory, and shifting than conventional binaries, such as colonizer/colonized and collaborator/resistor, would allow us to comprehend. Martin Klein's chapter in the \"Afterword\" complements the incisive and cadenced introduction by the editors and brings the curtain down with insightful comments on the lived experiences of different groups of African intermediaries, some of whose multifaceted functions were performed outside \"the formal structure of the colonial state\" (p. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2333835742", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2007", "title": "thomas summerhill harvest of dissent agrarianism in nineteenth century new york urbana and chicago university of illinois press 2005 pp xi 287 38 00", "label": [ "6303427" ], "author": [ "2506414123" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Thomas Summerhill.

This article looks primarily at how Wotton handled affairs in Venice by monitoring activities at Rome and deploying strategic representations of Rome. The two sections of this article examine different but related aspects of Wotton's activities in Venice in this respect. The first section looks in part at Wotton as supervisor of English travellers to Italy, and particularly Rome, and sets him alongside two other contemporary travellers to Italy: Anthony Munday, who infiltrated the English College at Rome in 1579 and exposed the subversive activities there of Jesuits and English scholars;2 and Thomas Coryat, who tried to cultivate Wotton's acquaintance in Venice in 1608, and whose presence there testifies to an increase in English travel to the signory in the wake of Wotton's appointment. 3 The second section considers Wotton's attempts to stir up anti-Papal feeling during a specific historical incident that dominated his first embassy: the Venetian-Papal split of 1606-07 in which Rome placed Venice under an interdict for its perceived infringement of ecclesiastical liberties - a jurisdictional conflict involving a protracted consideration of the proper limits of secular and religious authority.4Sources of tension between Venice and the Papacy were exacerbated on 17 April 1606, when Pope Paul V issued Venice with a bull of Interdict and Excommunication for its refusal to surrender the two clerics arrested on criminal charges and to annul its decrees prohibiting both the holding of public office by priests and the erecting of new churches without governmental consent. Venice issued an edit declaring the bull to be invalid, dismissed the Papal Nuncio, and expelled the Jesuits from its territories, partly because their obedience to the Pope was seen to challenge their allegiance to the state. Paolo (Pietro) Sarpi stood as advisor to, and apologist for, the republic, his Consolatione della Mente, translated as Rights of Sovereigns and Subjects (1722),5 challenging Rome's encroachments of power, identifying limits to Papal jurisdiction, and reassuring the republic of the invalidity of the excommunication, which he saw as not only undeserved (Venice not having departed from the Catholic faith), but also as a misuse of a spiritual weapon to serve the Pope's temporal ambitions.6 As the second section of this article shows, Wotton sought to exploit this split with the Papacy, and to use it further to cement links between Venice and England, by utilising what scholars call 'the Myth of Venice', which had taken shape by accumulation around discrete historical events that it also served to help navigate.7 Involved in this 'Myth of Venice' were the combined features of its unique constitution, its political independence, and its longevity. There existed a perceived link between the harmonious operation and unimpeachable justice of Venice's governmental system and its continued freedom from external oppression. James Howell's S.PQ.V. A Survay of the Signorie of Venice (1651) begins with a verse 'Upon the Citty and Signorie of VENICE' that includes the lines:Could any State on Earth Immortall be,Venice by Her rare Goverment is She;Venice Great Neptunes Minion, still a Mayd,Though by the warrlikst Potentats assayd;Yet She retaines Her Virgin-waters pure,Nor any Forren mixtures can endure ....8Howell is typical in attributing Venice's duration to the soundness of her constitution, and in using the metaphor of her virginity to signal her resistance to foreign domination. \u2026" }, { "paper": "1986179992", "venue": "49405560", "year": "2007", "title": "the renewed the destroyed and the remade the three thought worlds of the iroquois and the huron 1609 1650", "label": [ "195244886" ], "author": [ "2325475910" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "The Renewed, the Destroyed, and the Remade: The Three Thought Worlds of the Iroquois and the Huron, 1609-1650", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2146674451", "venue": "84742693", "year": "2007", "title": "j osgood caesar s legacy civil war and the emergence of the roman empire cambridge cambridge university press 2006 pp xii 440 illus isbn 978 0 521 85582 2 bound 978 0 521 67177 4 paper 50 00 bound 17 99 paper", "label": [ "195244886", "550479007", "81631423" ], "author": [ "3141101643" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "J.

Several kilometers to my south is South Deep Gold Mine, site of one of the world's richest gold deposits and South Africa's biggest corporate fraud. \"The dinosaur grew an enormous body while its brain remained small, thus evolving itself into extinction,\" declared the mining director Brett Kebble and his fellow con men in their 1996 company annual review as they, in full public glare, spun a vast web of lies. \"The elephant... developed mind and muscle at the same rate, and survives happily to this day,\" they said (Sergeant 74). Backed up by little more than this flimsy promotional spin, and largely unquestioned by auditors, journalists, mining experts, and fi nancial analysts, Kebble issued worthless paper shares for hundreds of millions of investors' dollars, which he frenziedly spent (includ ing on an art award). Ending with his murder, the slowly unraveling Kebble farce has again exposed the status of truth, reality, and cred ibility in South African public life. \"South Africa's a very material istic society,\" South Deep's new chair Gill Marcus, a returned exile, commented on Kebble. \"We're very taken with the glamour and the glitz. We need to find a way of going beyond the appearance to what lies beneath\" (Barron).

TOPIC AND HYPOTHESES Some past discussions of Johannine characters considered them either as symbolic or representative figures;1 others examined characters according to literary theory.2 This study contributes to those efforts with insights drawn from ancient rhetoric, in particular from the encomium genre of the progymnasmata. The encomium, to my knowledge, has not been used-although it ought to be, because the \"encomium\" is the most common form in antiquity for praising a person according to fixed, regular categories (origins, parents, nurture, virtues, and death). This form would most likely have been learned by the author of the Fourth Gospel at the time he learned to write materials for public persuasion. Moreover, this conventional and stereotypical3 view of persons can be found in Judean4 and Greco-Roman literature.5 The encomium, therefore, is the viewpoint of the ancients themselves, the report of a native informant who indicates the conventional topics and content that need to be covered to amplify praise for an honorable ancient person. This study, then, is no mere add-on to Johannine scholarship but a worthy contribution, because it examines the Fourth Gospel in the most likely honorable terms that author and audience would recognize. II. CONTENTS OF THE ENCOMIUM The progymnasmata were the exercises taught in the second level of education to train students for public discourse.7 Recent study of education in antiquity urges us to nuance the conventional, three-stage model found in current scholarship, which Robert Kaster summarized and to which he offered his qualifications. It is generally thought that ancient education consisted of: Kaster offers the following corrections: ancient education was \"a socially segmented system\" laid out along two essentially separate tracks. The most important formal distinction here is the division between the two tracks or segments: the ludus literrarius, providing common literacy for students of relatively humble origins on the one hand;9 and the scholae liberales, catering to a more privileged part of the population on the other.10 The scholae liberales began with instruction in writing for a public or municipal audience, especially the epideictic rhetoric so necessary for civic life.11 As we know, the collection of exercises for public speech and writing, namely, the progymnasmata, contained the cultural rules and values for the encomium, the literary expression of the rhetoric of praise and blame. Extant progymnasmata typically contain the following exercises:12 (1) myths, (2) chreia,13 (3) refutation and confirmation, (4) commonplaces on virtues and vices, (5) encomium and vituperation, (6) comparison,14 (7) prosopopoieia,15 (8) description, (9) thesis for or against something, and (10) legislation for or against a law. Although \"praise and blame\" runs through most of them, it is formally and explicitly taught in the \"encomium.\" The conventional encomium instructs students where to find reasons and data for praise (or blame), which genre is widespread in Greco-Roman and Israelite literature. With great consistency, the encomium instructed authors how to praise someone in terms of the following five categories: I. Origin A. Geography and Generation: country, race, ancestors, parents B. Birth: phenomena at birth (stars, visions, etc.), oracles II. Nurture and Training A. Education: teachers, arts, skills, laws, mode of life III. Accomplishments A. Deeds of the Body: beauty, strength, agility, might, health B. Deeds of the Soul: justice, wisdom, temperance, courage, piety C. Deeds of Fortune: power, wealth, friends, fame, fortune IV. Comparison V. Noble Death and Posthumous Honors Geography and Generation Each category of the encomium was itself a commonplace understood by all the ancients. All knew the basic, invariable content of \"origins,\" that is, origin in a noble land (geography) and from noble stock (generation). \u2026" }, { "paper": "2082735787", "venue": "114691300", "year": "2007", "title": "holy war in china the muslim rebellion and state in chinese central asia 1864 1877 by hodong kim stanford calif stanford university press 2004 320 pp 60 00 cloth", "label": [ "195244886", "191935318" ], "author": [ "2309171241" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Holy War in China: The Muslim Rebellion and State in Chinese Central Asia, 1864\u20131877 .

The concepts will never be the same again. The book is organized into three sections: \u201cProsperity,\u201d \u201cKnowledge,\u201d and \u201cFreedom\u201d (with a crucial introduction and a pensive coda). The headings refer to universalist aspirations; they serve as themes rather than markers of the actual chapter topics. In each section, using a wide range of ethnographic techniques, Tsing explores how various peoples\u2019 ideas and desires come into engagement and how that engagement changes the people, their ideas, and the world. The book has seven chapters, but the chapters alternate with short segments of writing offering particular perspectives that implicitly explore how to take a perspective at all. These segments allow the suggestion that the concerns in them have been generated by the way the chapters themselves rub against each other. Under the first section, \u201cProsperity,\u201d Tsing asks us to consider how global capitalism operates in specific instances, as she puts it, \u201cin friction\u201d (p. 12). A preliminary segment that traces the 1970s dreams of progress before circling around to rage and despair. Chapter 1, \u201cFrontiers of Capitalism,\u201d explores the concept of \u201cfrontier,\u201d the negotiation of what is \u201clegal\u201d (and for whom), and how land is made \u201cpublic\u201d (thereby taking it from people who use it and giving it to others) and then tumbles into the depths of the struggle to control the valuable commodities in the Kalimantan rain forests.

The Western military experience in Asia only underlines his argument; in the study of that history, the \"mat ter\" side of the equation has never been neglected, and the field remains \"war-centered.\" This does indeed provide \"the significant advantage of encouraging transnational and comparative perspectives.\"1 But most scholars in that field have, when framing their questions, paid careful attention to the connections between military operations and the societies, cultures, and peoples that fought in them. That approach was driven more by the nature of the military experience than by a preference for certain methods or techniques. The Western military presence in the region, a product of imperialism, total war, and the Cold War, had to be examined through a broad humanist prism in order to make sense of it. English-language scholarship naturally concentrates on the British and American experiences, with two notable caveats. The literature on the French war in Vietnam remains lively and multifaceted, as does the study of the \"other,\" be it the Impe rial Japanese Army (ija), the Chinese People's Volunteers, or the Vietnamese National Liberation Front. Wayne Lee and Ron Spector have already explored the more familiar American questions related to World War II, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War. My commentary will try to broaden this round table by discussing how recent scholarship examines the military history of the British presence in the \"Malay world\" during and after World War II. While that literature may remain war-centered, revolving as it does around global war and conflicts driven by the Cold War and decolonization, its evolu tion justifies Lee's argument that cultural analysis bolsters, rather than undermines, the importance of contingency in military history. The staying power of clich?s is enormous. Take for example Winston Churchill's de scription of the fall of Singapore in 1942 as the \"worst disaster\" in British military his tory. His assertion cannot stand up to any examination based on consequences; the \"loss\" of the thirteen colonies in 1783 surely outranks even a humiliating defeat in a war the British went on to win. But his label framed a generation of scholarship that emphasized contingency: a shallow British gamble on grand strategy was exposed by a Japanese on slaught that underlined how overstretched the British Empire really was.

Deaths, marriages (in and out) and the coming into adulthood of lineage members mean that there is a constant need for the expansion and reconfiguration of living space, leading Gabrilopolous et al.2 to conclude, with reference to the Tallensi of northern Ghana, that \"[t]he compound is a material manifestation of a family's fortunes.\" The use of non-permanent building materials, such as mud bricks or wattle and daub, in conjunction with often torrential rains during the rainy season, also means that, on a practical level, there is a constant need to refurbish and rebuild the rooms of a compound as they fall into disrepair. Although it is the changing physical form of lineage compounds that have received the lion's share of ethnographic, ethnoarchaeological, and geographical attention,3 it is equally true that the changing form of villages is reflective of the larger social, economic, political, and environmental conditions that the residents must cope with.4 In decentralized societies in particular-where villages are often composed of various, often unrelated, patricians and lineages with differing migration histories-village membership is not fixed, and lineages may migrate to or away from villages as circumstances dictate. While these movements may be caused by economic factors, they are mostly the result of strained (and other) political relations between and within different sections of the village. The spatial relationships expressed in this mobility should thus be seen as a reflection of sociopolitical relations between groups of people within the village community.5 Thus, villages tend to be mobile, far from stable, and very adaptable sociopolitical entities, and this is physically manifested in the changing form, configuration of, and relationship between lineage compounds on the landscape.6 Changes in this physical manifestation thus have the ability to inform us about how people responded to changes in their larger sociopolitical and ecological environment. Villages in West Africa, particularly those of decentralized societies, are vulnerable to fission,7 and can thus be seen as arenas of conflict between interest groups that can radically alter the physical layout and formation of the village. These changes are reflected archaeologically in the settlement organization of past settlements. Increasingly ethnographers and ethnoarchaeologists are using long-term, diachronic village studies to gain insight into how villages in West Africa have been affected by the social, economic, and political processes of the twentieth century and before. In Ghana, Brokenshaw8 observed village life in Larteh over a period of three years, while Mendonsa9 returned to the Tumu area in the 1990s in order to track the changes that had occurred there since his initial fieldwork in the 1970s and 1980s.10 In neighboring Togo, Piot11 examined long-term changes in a Kabre community over the course of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Ethnoarchaeologists have also embraced long-term village studies as a way of isolating patterns and processes of change that are not readily discernable from single seasons of fieldwork. A case in point is Posnansky's12 work carried out between 1970 and 1998 in the village of Hani in Ghana. Here, bi-yearly studies documented the changing forms of village settlement organization, population growth, fluctuations in subsistence and farming patterns, and coping strategies during times of economic hardship and political upheaval. The aspects of village life that do not change, such as house-forms, were also recorded. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2518498806", "venue": "94891645", "year": "2008", "title": "officina magica essays on the practice of magic in antiquity edited by shaul shaked conference proceedings of the institute of jewish studies university college london vol 4 leiden and boston brill 2005 pp x 320 213", "label": [ "543192267", "74481535", "2780273408", "74916050" ], "author": [ "2152904589" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Officina Magica: Essays on the Practice of Magic in Antiquity.

During the Mexican Revolution, he reinvented himself as a revolutionary politico and embraced indigenism. Using the latter, he could celebrate the Maya in the abstract while urging acculturation. Indeed, he represented himself as an authority on the Maya and as a model outcome of indigenista assimilation. Part revolutionary cacique (or boss), part ethnic broker, he used his mastery of Yucatec Maya and populist style to parry demands from below and to accommodate the new political and old economic elites. Still, he resisted self-identifying as Maya, which would have compromised his hard-won mestizo status. His rise culminated in the governorship in 1930.

In the many literary retellings of the period, epic history is often recast as national history, even as the epic narratives themselves are inscribed with allegorical significance. Such is the case in the many poems and plays on the subject of Abhimanyu and his nemesis Jayadrath, including the most famous example in Hindi, Maithilisharan Gupta's narrative poem, Jayadrath-vadh (The slaying of Jayadrath, 1910). In this essay I situate Gupta's poem within the genre of pauranik or mythological literature and read the poem against the Abhimanyu- Jayadrath episode as found in the critical edition of the Sanskrit Mahdbharata to illustrate how Gupta both modernizes the poem and imbues it with nationalist ideology. I ultimately argue that Gupta's Abhimanyu is like a freedom fighter battling an imperial goliath, and his wife, Subhadra, a model for women dedicated to the cause. I also discuss some of the subsequent literature on Abhimanyu which was inspired by Gupta's classic work, and which also re-envisions the story in terms of contemporary political circumstances. India has a long history of reimagining and retelling, in all manner of cultural production, narratives from its treasury of mythic lore. Interest in Hindu mythology surged especially in the late colonial period, here conveniently designated 1910-47, as the period saw a spate of literature and art featuring mythic themes.1 Hindi critics sometimes refer to such literature as \"paurdnik\", in contrast to other genres such as aitihdsik (historical) and sdmdjik (social). The same term is also used in Bengali, Marathi and Gujarati. Pauranik is typically translated as, \"that which relates to the Purdnas\" (a class of Sanskrit literature that tells the \"old\" sacred lore of the gods, especially Vishnu, Shiva, Brahma, and their divine consorts). In this essay I use the term \"pauranik\" interchangeably with \"mythological\", not in the sense that it is untrue, but in the way that \"mythological drama\" is described in the Oxford Companion to Indian Theatre (Ananda Lai 2004: 288). That is, I use the terms adjectivally to refer to modern (since the nineteenth century) literature based on traditional Hindu lore - primarily" }, { "paper": "2060174169", "venue": "165492527", "year": "2008", "title": "women s work in industrial england regional and local perspectives edited by nigel goose", "label": [ "2549261" ], "author": [ "2477721911" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Women's work in industrial England: regional and local perspectives \u2013 Edited by Nigel Goose", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2626406354", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2008", "title": "catharine edwards death in ancient rome new haven yale university press 2007 pp xii 287 35 00 reviews of bookseurope ancient and medieval", "label": [ "528414297", "74916050" ], "author": [ "2182573234" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Catharine Edwards.

After a decade of intensive archaeological study at various fortifications, very little remains known about the political and economic relationships among fortresses on a regional scale that might improve our understanding of the roots of these sociopolitical transformations. In this paper, we highlight the results of a recent neutron activation analysis (NAA) of ceramics from elite and non-elite contexts at a selection of LBA fortresses on the Tsaghkahovit Plain in northwestern Armenia, and offer some preliminary interpretations about political and economic organization and boundary formation.

Rather than being mere recipients of a mission placed unilaterally on their land by zealous missionaries, Lower Yanktonais found common cause with Catholic leaders to establish a local mission school to educate their children." }, { "paper": "2514321624", "venue": "94891645", "year": "2008", "title": "necropolis 2 vols 1 and 2 edited by jean yves empereur and marie dominique nenna etudes alexandrines 7 cairo institut francais d archeologie orientale 2003 pp ix 714 899 figs", "label": [ "48580701", "74916050" ], "author": [ "1993243602" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "N\u00e9cropolis 2.

The unit of analysis is not an archaeological culture or civilization but social groups inextricably involved with other groups in weblike interconnections in which technologies are diffused and modified by other groups caught up in these same processes. Such interconnections can best be traced archaeologically by examining the spread of technologies and subsistence practices. Other macrohistorical perspectives on the past, such as world systems analysis, often demand too much of the archaeological record and are used anachronistically. Prehistory documents the ever-increasing participation of groups in social fields that ultimately converge.

Numerous reigns and empires have occupied the area, leaving behind numerous archaeological remains. The literature and historical evidences show that the city of Pella was located near the sea and its harbor was the starting point of various conquests of famous kings such as Philip the 2nd and Alexander the Great. At present, the ancient capital is located 28\u00a0km inland the large fertile plain of Thessaloniki. Palaeogeographic and palaeoenvironmental studies encourage the idea of a fast infilling of the plain between the 5th century BC and the 5th century AD. Twentieth century authors attest to this, but there are contradictory scenarios due to varying interpretations of literature sources. This research offers a new perspective and understanding of the evolution of the Thessaloniki plain based on chronostratigraphical evidences. Historical references of Herodotus, Livy, and Strabo were used to establish the relations between human occupation and landscape evolution. Crossing these chronostratigraphical data with archaeological evidences and literary sources, it was possible to reconstruct shoreline displacements and landscape evolution during the last 5 millennia." }, { "paper": "2144569883", "venue": "114691300", "year": "2008", "title": "troubled relations the united states and cambodia since 1870 by kenton clymer de kalb northern illinois university press 2007 xi 254 pp 25 00 paper", "label": [ "6303427" ], "author": [ "3162419330" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Troubled Relations: The United States and Cambodia since 1870.

By Randall M. Packard. Baltimore: Johns Hopkins University Press, 2007. Pp. 296. $24.95. One could well describe Randall Packard's book The Making of a Tropical Disease as a magnum opus, a capstone effort that follows his earlier book on tuberculosis in South Africa (White Plague, Black Labor, 1989), his later perspectives on HIV/AIDS, and his current status as director of the Johns Hopkins Institute for the History of Medicine. This book is path breaking in a number of ways, most especially as a comprehensive view of malaria, the world's most deadly infectious disease, and one whose origins and greatest impacts have been in Africa. His study's historical scale is global in geographic terms, but also in its engagement with the methods and data of biomedical fields like epidemiology, immunology, and entomology. Packard frames his study within a rubric of the history of medicine, though its goal and its methods might, in fact, fit even more comfortably in the field of environmental or ecological history, a genre label he chose not to invoke explicitly in the text. Might an acknowledgement of environmental history better place his topic with a broader audience than history of medicine? Or would that suggest a distinction without a difference? Packard's introduction, eight chapters, and conclusion emphasize both historical depth and the geographic range of malaria. His introduction, \"Constructing the Global Narrative,\" offers a few counterintuitive malaria case narratives of the disease from such places as Archangel (Russia), Palm Beach (Florida), and West Bengal (India) to illustrate the geographic range of the disease and the sometimes incongruence of its appearance in surprising social, climatic, or geographic circumstances. Those cases are anomalies he has chosen for effect. Here also is where he lays out an overall thesis (pp. 12-13), i.e., that malaria transmission over time and in particular places has been a direct consequence of human ecology as a dynamic force that stimulated seasonal endemic transmission in some areas and in other places the unexpected \"perfect storm\" [my term] of ecology, politics, and human settlement that flare up as shocking and deadly epidemics. Studying disease in these settings would seem to invite environment as a contrastive canvas, though Packard does not adopt that approach explicitly. In Chapter 1, \"Beginnings,\" Packard lays the foundation of the science of malaria in ways that are clear, but also allows readers to appreciate the complexities of malaria as an interaction of vector, parasite, and human sufferers, as well as its dynamism over time. These biological and ecological factors include the origins of malaria in what ecologists might call \"edge effects\" in changing human ecosystems. He demonstrates this phenomenon by describing the disease's context in Central Africa's Congolia rain forest, the evolution of the life cycle of the protozoan genus Plasmodium as the disease organism, and the emergence of several distinctive species of that organism (e.g., P. falciparum and P. vivax). He then recounts the even more fascinating story of the co-evolution of the specific vectors-mosquitoes of the genus Anopheles-that carry the disease from host to new victims, especially the A. gambiae, a type that prefers human blood (as opposed to livestock or birds) and is the most efficient carrier of the disease-causing agent. Packard's accounts of the science here are complex, accurate, and necessary because the bioscience sets both the actors and the stage. Perhaps most importantly, Packard (p. 25) identifies the disease's key factor for transmission-vectorial density. He makes it clear to the reader that the density and age of the mosquito population is the most critical factor in explaining where, when, and why malaria transmissions occur. Malaria outbreaks are thus a conjuncture of events, not an accident of capricious nature or the evil intent of female mosquitoes. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2752812915", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2008", "title": "jeremy black george iii america s last king the english monarchs new haven conn yale university press 2006 pp xvii 460 35 00reviews of bookseurope early modern and modern", "label": [ "2779650838", "195244886" ], "author": [ "2133228592" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Jeremy Black.

However, the possibility of universal patterns ranging across wars in the size distribution or timing of within-conflict events has barely been explored. Here we show that the sizes and timing of violent events within different insurgent conflicts exhibit remarkable similarities. We propose a unified model of human insurgency that reproduces these commonalities, and explains conflict-specific variations quantitatively in terms of underlying rules of engagement.

In this post-civil war context, even presenting a narrative about a particular individual or family means exposing oneself to the mistrust that marks the many sides of the complex civil war and the distorted hatenarratives constructed especially by those with bad consciences or unsavory ambitions.

An Exemplary Narrative Maryan Muuse Boqor presented her life-story- of which part is represented here- as an \"exemplary narrative.\"2 It is a narrative that abstracts the ideals by which the people whose experiences are recounted here tried to live their lives, in the hope that these values will inspire the current generation of Somali youth.

Two important topics in the book of Ruth are foreignness and the acceptance of foreigners by Judahite society. In order to integrate a Moabite woman into Israel, the biblical author refers to the laws of the Torah to protect the poor-especially widows, orphans, and aliens-as well as to levirate marriage. Thus, it becomes possible to argue convincingly for the integration of a foreign woman into Israel. This article will take a closer look at the legal status of Ruth, with particular regard to Deuteronomic law.1 It will show that Ruth as \"foreign woman,\" a ..., takes the place of an immigrant holding the status of a ..., an alien, in Israel. She, as a woman on her own, as \"the wife of the dead,\" achieves a legal status that is not applied to any other woman in the OT. First, I will discuss the status of Elimelech and his family in Moab and then analyze the situation of Ruth in Bethlehem, focusing on four terms that describe her status: Moabite, ..., and ... Finally, I will draw some conclusions about the status of a poor foreign widow in Judah. I. Elimelech and His Family in Moab Two parallel situations with opposite preconditions can be found in the book of Ruth: Elimelech's and Ruth's.2 The first chapter narrates the story of an Israelite, Elimelech, and his family. Owing to a famine, these people are forced to live in a foreign country-Moab. Later, Ruth arrives as a foreigner in Bethlehem in Judah. Both situations are described in different terms. Even though Elimelech's and Ruth's legal status are not the same, the author of the book tends to relate these two situations to each other. To be sure, everything the book of Ruth tells us about the status of Elimelech in Moab or that of Ruth in Judah is seen from an Israelite perspective. There is no reference to foreigners in ancient Near Eastern legal codes.3 The book of Ruth reflects an exclusively inner-biblical discussion that relates to the Deuteronomic concept of the ... in Israel and uses terminology to denote a social reality that is not envisaged in Deuteronomy. Elimelech's sojourn in Moab is presented in only a few sentences (Ruth 1:1-3). The author describes Elimelech's stay in Moab with the Hebrew verb ... Jose Ramirez Kidd points out that in the Hebrew Bible this verb most often refers to Israelites who live as strangers in other countries; that is, it refers to emigrants.4 Therefore Elimelech is not called a ..., because the noun is used only for immigrants who live in Israel. It seems, however, that Elimelech has an assured status in Moab.5 This suggests that the author of Ruth assumes that what Deuteronomy requires concerning the ... in Israel is equally valid for the Israelite in a foreign country. Obviously, Moab is hospitable.6 Elimelech's sons marry Moabite women, Orpah and Ruth. The author of the book does not consider this problematic, although such unions are not without problems in other biblical texts. As argued by Irmtraud Fischer (and others before), the book of Ruth is written deliberately against a certain interpretation of Deuteronomy that can be found especially in the books of Ezra and Nehemiah.7 Deuteronomy 23:4 rules out the incorporation of Ammonites and Moabites into the assembly of Israel (...), and Deut 7:3 forbids marriage between Israelite men or women and women or men of the nations who live in Canaan.8 These marriages are exactly the kind of relationship that is strictly forbidden by Ezra and Nehemiah.9 The author of the book of Ruth, in contrast, does not comment on this fact,10 which shows that the situation of the Israelite family in Moab does not seem to pose a problem for him/her.11 The men live as aliens in Moab. The women have husbands and sons who provide for their legal status. However, the situation changes after the death of the male family members. Without a male head of the family the status of the Israelite woman in Moab as well as the status of her daughters-in-law is no longer assured. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2316497154", "venue": "152567572", "year": "2009", "title": "royal gift exchange between mycenae and egypt olives as greeting gifts in the late bronze age eastern mediterranean", "label": [ "195244886", "120876096", "166957645", "2781300146" ], "author": [ "2436617133" ], "reference": [ "579175165", "596342972", "617228575", "1006021082", "1560490788", "2334500162" ], "abstract": "contacts between egypt and the aegean during the late bronze age especially focusing on the relation between minoan crete and new kingdom egypt have been the subject of much study the relation between the greek mycenaean mainland and egypt generally is regarded as a more elusive topic and most scholars seem to consider contact between the two a matter of irregular exchange probably not even a direct exchange but via middlemen on cyprus in the levant etc in this paper data on the import of mycenaean stirrup jars generally regarded as containers for olive oil in egypt and the presence of the olive oil in egypt are presented both archaeological and paleobotanical data are examined the aim of the paper is to stimulate new thought on the possibility that contact or rather exchange between egypt and the greek mainland was more than an irregular phenomenon and was instead highly organized involving the active engagement of the ruling elite at mycenae and the pharaonic court at the same time it will be demonstrated that olives or olive oil were of importance in this late bronze age interstate contact", "title_raw": "Royal Gift Exchange Between Mycenae and Egypt: Olives as Greeting Gifts in the Late Bronze Age Eastern Mediterranean", "abstract_raw": "Contacts between Egypt and the Aegean during the Late Bronze Age, especially focusing on the relation between Minoan Crete and New Kingdom Egypt have been the subject of much study.

Both archaeological and paleobotanical data are examined. The aim of the paper is to stimulate new thought on the possibility that contact, or rather, exchange, between Egypt and the Greek mainland was more than an irregular phenomenon and was instead highly organized, involving the active engagement of the ruling elite at Mycenae and the Pharaonic court.

Traditionally, the emergence of metallurgy in this region has been viewed either as peripheral to core developments in Mesopotamia, Europe and the Near East, or as part of a much larger zone of interaction and trade in metals and metal production technologies. Such views have deflected scholarship from pursuing questions concerning metallurgical production, consumption, trade and value, and their connection to local diachronic socio-economic change. This paper examines these key issues through recent research programs in the steppe region, and in so doing offers an important comparative case study for early metallurgy. It is suggested that in order to develop a better understanding of early mining, metallurgy and socio-economic change in the central steppe region, new theoretical and methodological approaches are needed that highlight the unique characteristics of early mining communities and their relationships to micro-regional resources and concomitant local, in addition to long-distance, trade dynamics. These issues are discussed in light of current field research by the authors and their Russian colleagues on the Middle Bronze Age Sintashta development (2,100\u20131,700 BC) in the Southern Ural Mountains." }, { "paper": "2020059976", "venue": "114691300", "year": "2009", "title": "after the war a new patriotism in sri lanka", "label": [ "81631423", "2779598827", "195244886" ], "author": [ "2630495327" ], "reference": [ "1524194708", "1972013074", "2051222863", "2156082777" ], "abstract": "on may 19 2009 the president of sri lanka mahinda rajapaksa dressed in his traditional white sarong and hirt solemnly addressed parli ment the writ of the state now runs across every inch of our territory we have completely defeated terrorism the same day photographs of the corpse of the ruthless rebel leader vellupillai prabhakaran adorned all of the local newspapers with his death the secessionist war was over this endless war that had pitted the lib eration tigers of tamil eelam ltte against the security forces of the govern ment of sri lanka since 1983 it had sunk deep into the psyche of the people of all communities and its terrible violence had elicited much international atten tion and reprimand president rajapaksa then addressed his citizens in the tamil language promising reconciliation and embracing the tamil speaking people in his program of recovery for the ravaged north a northern spring would soon come on the streets of colombo there was a feeling of trepidation while celebrations some spontaneous and others orchestrated by sycophantic politicians peppered the capital the day had been given as a special holiday for the war weary people to celebrate by eating kiribath milk rice and launching peaceful rockets as fireworks are commonly called people waved the lion flag and compared the president to the famous second century bce sinhalese hero dutugemunu another son of the ruhuna southern sri lanka who suc ceeded in conquering anuradhapura from the tamil king elara whom he famously slew with a dart king dutugemunu has long been a folk hero in sri lanka for uniting the country under a single rule in the colombo suburb of wellawatte however where many tamils live shops were kept closed and the mood was more reflective if they felt that prab hakaran s death was a liberation tamil shopkeepers and passersby could not yet say it openly the shadow of the violent outfit that had spread fear and practiced", "title_raw": "After the War: A New Patriotism in Sri Lanka?", "abstract_raw": "On May 19, 2009, the president of Sri Lanka, Mahinda Rajapaksa, dressed in his traditional white sarong and hirt, solemnly addressed Parli ment: \"The writ of the state now runs across every inch of our territory ... we have completely defeated terrorism.\" The same day, photographs of the corpse of the ruthless rebel leader Vellupillai Prabhakaran adorned all of the local newspapers.

A \"northern spring\" would soon come. On the streets of Colombo, there was a feeling of trepidation, while celebrations, some spontaneous and others orchestrated by sycophantic politicians, peppered the capital. The day had been given as a special holiday for the war-weary people to celebrate by eating kiribath (milk rice) and launching (peaceful) rockets, as fireworks are commonly called.

Discussion here focuses on the art historical and religious significance of the terracotta plaques and figurines as well as the political dimensions of cult. The iconography of the plaques hints at male rite of passage ceremonies at a simple spring sanctuary of a goddess charged with natural fertility and human growth. She is depicted in the seventh century as a frontal nude crowned by a polos, an assimilation of a Near Eastern type. It is argued that Roussa Ekklesia functioned as a territorial marker for the state of Praisos, with the beginning of cult activity coinciding with the rise of this polis as a regional power.

association asa meeting in new york marked the fiftieth anniversary of the association s founding it was an apt moment to revisit archaeology s contribution to african historical studies particularly in light of the paucity of archaeological contributions to the association s annual meetings in the years leading up to its golden anniversary despite early optimism around the potential for interdisciplinary collaboration in african historical studies enthusiasm for multidisciplinary perspectives on african history had waned by the closing decade of the twentieth century to the point that historians and archaeologists seemed to look at one another across a gulf created by incompatibilities of sources temporalities analytical goals and theoretical perspectives 1 at the same time a growing interest in recent decades among archaeologists in the study of colonial processes and the effects of global connections that include the atlantic slave trade would seem to reduce the gulf but as archaeologists who have for decades been involved in projects centered on how the daily circumstances of life 2 in african villages were transformed through villagers broader connections we were puzzled by the apparent inattention of historians to the burgeoning literature on the archaeology of african history it seemed to us that many scholars of africa whether historians anthropologists or other social scientists remained unaware of the topical and theoretical shifts that have taken place in african archaeology in the last decade or two it was this that motivated us to organize dual sessions on the archaeology of african history for the 2007 asa meetings in new york one focused on west african cultural dynamics in the era of atlantic connections chaired by ann stahl and another focused on eastern and southern african political cultural and economic transformations ad 800 1900 chaired by adria laviolette we invited our colleagues to reflect on the dynamics of production consumption and exchange and to consider the implications of long standing intercontinental connections for our understanding of african history we invited papers that highlighted the growing concern with questions of cultural process and the specificity of practice in seeking to understand the ways in which african societies of the last thousand years were enmeshed in though not wholly determined by ramifying connections within and outside the continent we sought contributions that illustrated what archaeologists are learning from a renewed engagement with questions of intercontinental entanglements through conceptual and theoretical perspectives that highlight the role of daily action in the production of culture and therefore a shift from the study of culture to the study of culture making practices we also sought contributions that illustrated how our understanding of historical processes is enriched by a study of things by attention to continuities and change in material culture systems and techniques of production 3 the resulting sessions brought together a series of mid career and newly minted professionals to showcase recent archaeological research informed by these perspectives the papers in this special issue three centered on west africa and two on east africa are extended and revised versions of those papers 4 a thread that runs through the contributions focused on west african societies is the value of archaeological sources for investigating how societies in interior regions responded to the shifting landscape of exchange that

meeting in New York marked the fiftieth anniversary of the Association's founding. It was an apt moment to revisit archaeology's contribution to African historical studies, particularly in light of the paucity of archaeological contributions to the Association's annual meetings in the years leading up to its \"golden\" anniversary. Despite early optimism around the potential for interdisciplinary collaboration in African historical studies, enthusiasm for multidisciplinary perspectives on African history had waned by the closing decade of the twentieth century to the point that historians and archaeologists seemed to look at one another across a gulf created by incompatibilities of sources, temporalities, analytical goals, and theoretical perspectives.1 At the same time, a growing interest in recent decades among archaeologists in the study of colonial processes and the effects of global connections that include the Atlantic slave trade, would seem to reduce the gulf. But as archaeologists who have for decades been involved in projects centered on how the \"daily circumstances of life\"2 in African villages were transformed through villagers' broader connections, we were puzzled by the apparent inattention of historians to the burgeoning literature on the archaeology of African history. It seemed to us that many scholars of Africa, whether historians, anthropologists, or other social scientists, remained unaware of the topical and theoretical shifts that have taken place in African archaeology in the last decade or two. It was this that motivated us to organize dual sessions on the Archaeology of African History for the 2007 ASA meetings in New York- one focused on \"West African Cultural Dynamics in the Era of Atlantic Connections,\" chaired by Ann Stahl, and another focused on \"Eastern and Southern African Political, Cultural and Economic Transformations, AD 800-1900,\" chaired by Adria LaViolette. We invited our colleagues to reflect on the dynamics of production, consumption, and exchange and to consider the implications of long-standing intercontinental connections for our understanding of African history. We invited papers that highlighted the growing concern with questions of cultural process and the specificity of practice in seeking to understand the ways in which African societies of the last thousand years were enmeshed in, though not wholly determined by, ramifying connections within and outside the continent. We sought contributions that illustrated what archaeologists are learning from a renewed engagement with questions of intercontinental entanglements through conceptual and theoretical perspectives that highlight the role of daily action in the production of culture, and therefore a shift from the study of \"culture\" to the study of \"culture-making practices.\" We also sought contributions that illustrated how our understanding of historical processes is enriched by a study of things- by attention to continuities and change in material culture systems and techniques of production.3 The resulting sessions brought together a series of mid-career and newly minted professionals to showcase recent archaeological research informed by these perspectives. The papers in this special issue- three centered on West Africa and two on East Africa- are extended and revised versions of those papers.4 A thread that runs through the contributions focused on West African societies is the value of archaeological sources for investigating how societies in interior regions responded to the shifting landscape of exchange that accompanied the rise of the Atlantic trade. Archaeologists working in what Akinwumi Ogundiran terms \"areas of near-perfect documentary silences\" are well positioned to balance our understanding of inter-regional trade networks with insights into domestic economic systems and intra-regional exchange. Too often, historical claims about domestic economies are extrapolated from nineteenth- or early twentieth-century patterns and projected back in time. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2014567596", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2009", "title": "ioannis d stefanidis stirring the greek nation political culture irredentism and anti americanism in post war greece 1945 1967 burlington vt ashgate publishing company 2007 pp xiv 300 99 95", "label": [ "6303427" ], "author": [ "2274348414" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Ioannis D.

This divide between the pre-discursive and the discursive is straddled, I argue, by photographs as historians use them. The reason for photography's dual capacity lies with the complex nature of sight, which is both precogni tive (primarily so, as neuroscience demonstrates), and also culturally encoded. Historians most commonly rely on mute sensuality; they place photographs in books with little com ment, implying that some form of unmediated recognition is possible. Used in this way, photographs cannot serve as the basis for new analyses but may underscore the affective stance of historians toward their topics. Less commonly, historians interrogate photographs much like texts, locating them within the discourses through which they emerged. This strategy treats the experience of sight, in Joan Scott's words, as \"an interpretation that needs to be interpreted.\" Photographs seen as discursive objects may provide understand ing of past political and social relations, but we lose any assurance that we can recognize and intuitively understand their subjects. In short, we risk blindness. I explore these two fundamentally different strategies for approaching photographs, using the concepts of rec ognition and excavation to examine an image made in 1946 by Japanese photographer Hayashi Tadahiko.

Paleoanthropologist Michael Westaway of the Queensland Museum in Brisbane, Australia, and primatologist Colin Groves of the Australian National University in Canberra compared 26 15,000- to 40,000-year-old skulls from the Willandra Lakes of New South Wales, Australia, with skulls of 19 early modern humans, dated at up to 195,000 years old, and five H. erectus skulls from Java (dates uncertain).\n\nPuzzlingly, the Willandra skulls include both light (gracile) and heavy-set (robust) crania. The out-of-Africa camp thinks they all descend from a single population, but some multiregionalists argue that they could have two sets of roots: in robust Indonesian H. erectus and gracile people from China. The researchers looked for signs that the robust Willandra individuals inherited some traits, such as a distinctive brow ridge, from the Indonesian hominins. They found none, they reported in the journal Archaeology in Oceania . \u201cThere were commonalities between the Australian, African, and Middle Eastern people, but the Indonesian specimens stood outside the range,\u201d Westaway says.\n\nBut paleoanthropologist Fred Smith of Illinois State University in Normal says the jury is still out.

Dart's claims, first rejected, were later seen as one of the great scientific discoveries of the twentieth century. This formed one surviving part of a substantial corpus of wild claims made in Dart's writings. These included the taming of fire; the osteodontokeratic; cannibalism and the killer ape; Boskop man; work on racial origins; on exotic invaders into southern Africa from the ancient Near East, the Mediterranean, and China; on phallic symbols; and Stone Age miners. Dart's career and work presents the intriguing circumstance of a scientist and writer who challenged science with a daring proposal which was considered false and was later fully accepted as scientifically valid, and used his reputation to forward numerous arguments which could not stand up to scientific scrutiny.1 Almost every survey of world prehistory, the \"origins of mankind,\" or the history of paleoanthropology and archaeology includes Dart's 1925 achievement. Through this discovery, Dart has entered the literature as one of the great scholar-scientists of the era. Dart's claims were described later that year in Nature by a leader in the field, Sir Arthur Keith, as \"preposterous,\"2 a view echoed by other researchers. It would take until after the discovery of the Transvaal Australopithecines in the later 1930s before the scientific community began to acknowledge the brilliance and accuracy of Dart's claim, and it was the mid 1940s before the major critics stepped back. But already by that date Dart had become a hero in South Africa, and the boldness and originality of his work built his reputation as one of the great figures in interpreting the human record. The conventional image in print is of a scientist ahead of his time, with a major breakthrough that took two decades for the world to recognize. It is therefore ironic that in a very productive career of writing, together with numerous public presentations, the majority of themes and arguments that Dart pursued in archaeology and physical anthropology could indeed be described as \"preposterous\"-clearly so in terms of today's knowledge, but many running directly against the methodology, knowledge, and scientific understanding of his own time. While Dart's description of Australopithecus seems methodologically scientific, his analysis was one of many interpretations in his body of work made with less than strictly scientific methodology, but one that proved sustainable through the later scientific research of others. Most current references to Dart's role are brief and reverential.3 This paper seeks to interpret the enigma of a scientist who doggedly pursued numerous lines of argument seen as false and misguided, but one of which- the identification of Australopithecus africanus-has created his lasting reputation. The career of Raymond Dart, and the fate of his views, raise questions about the nature of science in early twentieth-century \"colonial\" culture and the particular world of white South Africa's emerging ideologies. We argue that the phenomena of Dart's broad-ranging hypotheses in archaeology, biological anthropology and beyond do not have a single cause. They reflect the intersection of his personality, his own non-metropolitan background, his eccentric influences, and the interpretative models of the inter-war period (especially on race), with a white South Africa that embraced the opportunity for a new role in world science alongside specific ideological needs to reinforce its social structure and identity. They also serve to raise questions about the boundary between science and pseudoscience. \"Man of Grit\" Raymond Dart was born in Brisbane, Australia- dramatically so, during the flooding of the town in 1893. \u2026" }, { "paper": "1997866327", "venue": "141988568", "year": "2009", "title": "prophets of the permanent war economy", "label": [ "2780825356" ], "author": [ "2512323435" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "the review of the month entitled the u s imperial triangle and military spending by john bellamy foster hannah holleman and robert w mcchesney monthly review 60 no 5 october 2008 carries on a valuable mr tradition monthly review is one of the few voices on the left that has emphasized the necessity from the point of view of capitalism of this kind of military keynesianism chalmers johnson and seymour melman who have written extensively on this issue have tended to argue that other forms of government spending a renewed new deal is possible this article can also be found at the monthly review website where most recent articles are published in full click here to purchase a pdf version of this article at the monthly review website", "title_raw": "Prophets of the 'Permanent War Economy'", "abstract_raw": "The Review of the Month entitled \"The U.S. Imperial Triangle and Military Spending\" by John Bellamy Foster, Hannah Holleman, and Robert W.

Collectively, the trilogy covers the years 1954-1968, the time in which Martin Luther King, Jr. became a national civil rights leader and a global icon for human rights and racial justice. For Branch, King was nothing less than a heroic, race-transcending political leader who fundamentally transformed American democracy through an innovative nonviolent ethos rooted in Gandhism, the African American church, and Judeo-Christian traditions of militantly passive resistance. But America in the King Years is more than a conventional biography of King. The trilogy presents a panoramic portrait of postwar America during the civil rights movement's heroic age. Branch documents the activities of rural and urban black leaders, white volunteers and clergymen, and far-flung personalities engaged in po litical struggles away from the center of media attention. Unglamorous local leaders, obscure sharecroppers, religious scholars, street speakers, and ordinary citizens thrust into the maelstrom of the era receive varying degrees of attention throughout.1 America in the King Years particularly revels in finely grained portraits of the presidents and powerbrokers whose iconography continues to shape the public's his torical memory of this period. Figures such as John F. Kennedy, Robert F. Kennedy, and Lyndon B. Johnson loom large in the proceedings, as does King's ability to move back and forth, at times almost effortlessly, between America's political elites and its racial underclass. Branch's trilogy thus weaves together social and political history to produce a striking historical tapestry that greatly enriches contemporary under standing of the modern civil rights era.2 Professional historians have, for the most part, been relatively silent regarding" }, { "paper": "2315613305", "venue": "95667342", "year": "2009", "title": "taking on the trust the epic battle of ida tarbell and john d rockefeller by steve weinberg new york norton 2008 xvi 304 pp 25 95 isbn 978 0 393 04935 0", "label": [ "2778627824", "74916050" ], "author": [ "2757052526" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Taking on the Trust: The Epic Battle of Ida Tarbell and John D.

Unlike Christian saints, Cuban orishas maintain a deep connection to the political resistance of societies in which secrecy and community are primordial.

The city of Baalbek, in present-day Lebanon, has been a subject of interest to students of the Bible for more than a millennium. Since the tenth century c.e., many have identified it with Baal-Gad (Josh 11:17) and/or Baalath (1 Kgs 9:18).1 Since the beginning of the eighteenth century, others have connected it, in one way or another, with Bikath-Aven (Amos 1:5). In 1863, these and other suggestions were reviewed by John Hogg in a lengthy treatise.2 The etymology of the toponym, which appears as B'lbk in classical Syriac and as Ba'labakku in classical Arabic, has been widely discussed since the eighteenth century. Many etymologies have been suggested, most of them unconvincing.3 Part of the problem is that a combination of etymologies is needed, for the name of the place changed over the centuries as its religious significance evolved. In this article, I shall attempt to show that the rise and fall of Canaanite religion at Baalbek from the Bronze Age to the Byzantine period can be traced with the help of five toponyms: (1) Mbk Nhrm (Source of the Two Rivers),4 (2) ... (Valley of Idolatry), (3) ... (Baal of Weeping), (4) ... (Spring of Weeping), and (5) B'lbk/Ba'labakku (Baal-Bacchus). All of these are Semitic; the Greek name of Baalbek, Heliopolis, will not be discussed.5 I. MBK NHRM (SOURCE OF THE TWO RIVERS) Toponym 1, probably a poetic toponym,6 is Mbk Nhrm. In the Baal cycle (KTU 1.4 IV 21 and parallels) and in a Ugaritic serpent incantation (KTU 1.100.3), Il's abode is said to be located there. A full review of the literature on this toponym is beyond the scope of this article,7 but one piece of evidence should be mentioned. Othmar Keel, followed by Mark S. Smith, notes that a seal from the Akkadian period at Mari depicts \"a god of the type El enthroned, between the springs of two streams, on a mountain.\"8 If this is really a depiction of Il's abode, it suggests that the latter was above ground, even if the \"source of the two rivers\" was partly subterranean. In my view, the Ugaritic toponym (and perhaps the seal from Mari) should be compared with modern descriptions of Baalbek, such as: \"Baalbek was a natural centre for the upper part of the Beqa'a, being located at its highest level, at the source of two important rivers. . . .\"9 The two rivers in question are Lebanon's greatest rivers, the Litani and the Asi (Orontes), which, according to Ellen Churchill Semple, \"rise in a swampy, indeterminate watershed near Baalbek at an altitude of 3,500 feet.\"10 According to Richard F. Burton and Charles F. Tyrwhitt Drake, the true (scientific) sources of the Litani and the Asi are the 'Ayn el-Baradah and the Nabav el-'Illa, located \"within one short mile of each other\" and only five or six miles west of the ruins of Baalbek.11 The two sources \"are separated by a mere ground wave; . . . whilst two distinct river-valleys, running north and south, have been formed by the erosion of the twin streams.\"12 It has been argued that Baalbek's location explains its rise to prominence as a religious center: A more appropriate setting for the abode of gods who represented such material phenomena as rain and tempest, fertility and growth, would be difficult to imagine. Situated near the highest point of the Beqa'a, controlling the watershed between the Orontes river to the north, and the Leontes river to the south, Baalbek combined aspects of a city in a plain with that of a high place, and was thus predestined to become a centre of religious worship.13 Since Baalbek was occupied already in the Early and Middle Bronze Ages,14 it could well have been a religious center in the Late Bronze Age, when the Ugaritic texts were written (and even in the Akkadian period, when the seal from Mari was manufactured). I suggest, therefore, that Ugaritic Mbk Nhrm refers to the site of Baalbek.15 II. ...

This article suggests that aspects of the Anglo-Scottish relationship need to be reappraised. Using estimates of English payments to the Scots during the 1640s, it will be argued that the Scottish leadership made pragmatic political decisions based on a practical appreciation of the country's military and fiscal capacity. Substantial payouts from the English parliament enabled the Scottish parliamentary regime to engage in military and diplomatic activities that the country could not otherwise have afforded. The 1643 treaty that brought the Scots into the English Civil War on the side of parliament contrasts favourably with the 1647 Engagement in support of the king. It will be shown that, although the English parliament did not honour all of its obligations to the Scots, it does not automatically follow that the alliance was a failure in financial terms." }, { "paper": "106607145", "venue": "44270123", "year": "2009", "title": "the palace revolution the assassination of domitian and the accession of nerva", "label": [ "195244886" ], "author": [ "2286637023" ], "reference": [ "2003726", "139865441", "361438525", "579793830", "587497153", "601977969", "612571631", "612866958", "614339756", "619027734", "632163026", "643264526", "650122074", "656812117", "744852286", "1041245453", "1490863357", "1512418047", "1513776006", "1516688965", "1519477769", "1528736369", "1541632314", "1561051844", "1588698987", "1596159235", "1621445418", "1968659588", "1968819281", "1974089044", "1991515650", "1993132574", "1998575017", "2007592796", "2017441771", "2018731119", "2028772900", "2031725070", "2043762057", "2056859821", "2083252402", "2086778933", "2086947020", "2099811417", "2125386790", "2126513877", "2127016187", "2132865411", "2143070631", "2148051142", "2153651933", "2297234202", "2315460805", "2317915637", "2320632062", "2331408073", "2331646640", "2331768603", "2413753938", "2479088583", "2486819622", "2495908282", "2511447887", "2521052629", "2522055769", "2523683176", "2788165094", "2804052172", "3141106540" ], "abstract": "the events of 18th september 96 were turbulent and epoch making the last flavian emperor was cut down in the palace having no male relative to assume his throne the type of disorder that had followed gaius death did not occur nor was there a civil war or an immediate outbreak of the enraged praetorians rather the denouement of that september day was the curious acclamation of m cocceius nerva an elderly amicus of the dynasty and a man who had survived many reigns 1 given the recent crop of work on both domitian and his successor 2 a new account of the conspiracy of 96 seems appropriate particularly since the problematic idea that nerva was the senate s emperor has once again been mooted 3 this study provides a detailed analysis of the plot against domitian and the accession of nerva i begin with the problem of the sources section ii and then give an account of the emperor s murder and the nature of the plot sections iii iv i continue with an exposition of the roles and motives of the court freedmen domitia the praetorian prefects the imperial amici and nerva himself sections v ix i shall argue that this event was a well planned but small palace conspiracy and that it is best explained with reference to that central but neglected institution of the roman empire the imperial court i conclude section x that the praetorian guard played a major role in the accession of nerva and that the date of the murder may even have been planned by the conspirators to minimise any interference from the senate", "title_raw": "The Palace Revolution: The assassination of Domitian and the accession of Nerva", "abstract_raw": "The events of 18th September 96 were turbulent and epoch-making.

Cocceius Nerva?an elderly amicus of the dynasty and a man who had survived many reigns.1 Given the recent crop of work on both Domitian and his successor,2 a new account of the conspiracy of 96 seems appropriate, particularly since the problematic idea that Nerva was the \"senate's emperor\" has once again been mooted.3 This study provides a detailed analysis of the plot against Domitian and the accession of Nerva. I begin with the problem of the sources (section ii), and then give an account of the emperor's murder and the nature of the plot (sections iii-iv). I continue with an exposition of the roles and motives of the court freedmen, Domitia, the praetorian prefects, the imperial amici, and Nerva himself (sections v-ix). I shall argue that this event was a well-planned but small palace conspiracy, and that it is best explained with reference to that central, but neglected, institution of the Roman empire?the imperial court. I conclude (section x) that the praetorian guard played a major role in the accession of Nerva, and that the date of the murder may even have been planned by the conspirators to minimise any interference from the senate." }, { "paper": "2603298887", "venue": "164398212", "year": "2009", "title": "review peter purton a history of the early medieval siege c 450 1220", "label": [ "74916050", "186857363" ], "author": [ "1794746545" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Review: Peter Purton, A History of the early medieval siege, c. 450-1220", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2000337071", "venue": "150866770", "year": "2009", "title": "the latter days of the genji", "label": [ "545717478", "155405519" ], "author": [ "2193379540", "2188878034" ], "reference": [ "106672821", "1513600300", "1568574183", "2085970179", "2088799869", "2253801540", "2482530098", "2801990551" ], "abstract": "spite of what one of the contributors to this volume calls the precipitous decline in genji literacy p 54 and she is talking just of the late heian period the tale of genji has been indisputably a dominating presence in japan throughout the thousand or so years since it was written what is more as haruo shirane reminds us at the outset i t is also one of the few japanese texts that in the modern period has had a global reach coming to be recognized as part of world literature p 1 the telling phrase here is in the modern period for the tale of genji had scarcely been heard of outside japan before the middle of the nineteenth century let alone translated and that applies as much to the rest of east asia as it does to the world as a whole it is this abiding presence within japan then that is the focus of this book which is a collection of essays on the painterly literary and theatrical reception of the tale of genji from the twelfth century genji monogatari emaki to twentieth century film and manga adaptations the essays in this volume form a rich corpus of work on the long and complex afterlives of what have come to be recognized as the key texts in the japanese literary tradition and as shirane advises in the preface are best read in conjunction with the pathbreaking earlier volume inventing the classics which shirane edited with tomi suzuki 1 in the case of the tale of genji and of the other works discussed in inventing the classics those afterlives are arguably too intricate to be summed up by the term reception lewis cook who in his chapter in the volume under review takes up medieval commentaries on genji describes reception history as a capacious rubric p 129 this is certainly apt not least because of the confusion between genres that cook explores in his chapter and that the broad category reception history unhelpfully masks", "title_raw": "The Latter Days of the Genji", "abstract_raw": "spite of what one of the contributors to this volume calls \"the precipitous decline in Genji literacy\" (p. 54; and she is talking just of the late Heian period!), The Tale of Genji has been indisputably a dominating presence in Japan throughout the thousand or so years since it was written. What is more, as Haruo Shirane reminds us at the outset, \"[i]t is also one of the few Japanese texts that, in the modern period, has had a global reach, coming to be recognized as part of world literature\" (p. 1). The telling phrase here is \"in the modern period,\" for The Tale of Genji had scarcely been heard of outside Japan before the middle of the nineteenth century, let alone translated, and that applies as much to the rest of East Asia as it does to the world as a whole. It is this abiding presence within Japan, then, that is the focus of this book, which is a collection of essays on the painterly, literary, and theatrical reception of The Tale of Genji from the twelfth-century Genji monogatari emaki to twentieth-century film and manga adaptations. The essays in this volume form a rich corpus of work on the long and complex afterlives of what have come to be recognized as the key texts in the Japanese literary tradition, and, as Shirane advises in the preface, are best read in conjunction with the pathbreaking earlier volume Inventing the Classics, which Shirane edited with Tomi Suzuki.1 In the case of The Tale of Genji and of the other works discussed in Inventing the Classics, those afterlives are arguably too intricate to be summed up by the term \"reception.\" Lewis Cook, who in his chapter in the volume under review takes up medieval commentaries on Genji, describes \"reception history\" as a \"capacious rubric\" (p. 129). This is certainly apt, not least because of the confusion between genres that Cook explores in his chapter and that the broad category \"reception history\" unhelpfully masks." }, { "paper": "1973158899", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2009", "title": "a place in biography for oneself", "label": [ "137355542", "2549261", "52119013", "2779840692", "520712124" ], "author": [ "2130159825" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "i was surprised when the editor of the ahr contacted me about contributing an essay on biography for this roundtable the biography i wrote hardly qualifies as a biography in the usual sense of the word a biography of no place from ethnic borderland to soviet heartland does not describe a life or even the life of a community but a territory loosely defined with no political or administrative boundaries it was just a place named by locals and hazily circumscribed by the reach of a certain sandy soil that yielded little in the way of cash crops instead locals gathered berries mushrooms fish and game in forests of soft pine and birch amid streams and rivers that tended to swamp this place the northern forest belt of today s central ukraine in a biography of no place lacks the absolute boundaries of a human body in space and a human life in time why then did i conceive of this history as a biography initially the frame of biography suggested itself to me because of the funereal quality of the landscape this palpable insinuation of decay caught me by surprise when i first arrived in right bank ukraine there i visited villages of mostly elderly some were living in homes of people who had been expelled before during or just after world war ii they pulled out old chests to show me possessions left behind stored carefully for fifty years in case the exiled family returned inevitably someone would take me unbidden to burial mounds to the place where our jews were killed i stumped across weed weary polish cemeteries stepping lightly over cracked headstones and stood at the thresholds of caved in lutheran churches these sites sounded out loss in cacophony echoing across the terrain like an obituary the fact that i made these travels in the mid 1990s when the economy of ukraine was in an extended nosedive when the young and educated were seeking to leave ukraine for russia america israel europe anywhere else when the intercity buses no longer ran and when the city of zhitomir where i lived reduced heat and electricity to a few hours a day and then at times to nothing all suggested endings closings failure", "title_raw": "A Place in Biography for Oneself", "abstract_raw": "I WAS SURPRISED WHEN THE EDITOR of the AHR contacted me about contributing an essay on biography for this roundtable. The biography I wrote hardly qualifies as a biography in the usual sense of the word. A Biography of No Place: From Ethnic Borderland to Soviet Heartland does not describe a life, or even the life of a community, but a territory, loosely defined with no political or administrative boundaries. It was just a \"place,\" named by locals and hazily circumscribed by the reach of a certain sandy soil that yielded little in the way of cash crops. Instead, locals gathered berries, mushrooms, fish, and game in forests of soft pine and birch amid streams and rivers that tended to swamp. This place, the northern forest belt of today's central Ukraine, in A Biography of No Place lacks the absolute boundaries of a human body in space and a human life in time. Why, then, did I conceive of this history as a biography? Initially, the frame of biography suggested itself to me because of the funereal quality of the landscape. This palpable insinuation of decay caught me by surprise when I first arrived in right-bank Ukraine. There I visited villages of mostly elderly. Some were living in homes of people who had been expelled before, during, or just after World War II. They pulled out old chests to show me possessions left behind, stored carefully for fifty years in case the exiled family returned. Inevitably someone would take me, unbidden, to burial mounds, to the place where \"our Jews\" were killed. I stumped across weed-weary Polish cemeteries, stepping lightly over cracked headstones, and stood at the thresholds of caved-in Lutheran churches. These sites sounded out loss in cacophony, echoing across the terrain like an obituary. The fact that I made these travels in the mid-1990s-when the economy of Ukraine was in an extended nosedive, when the young and educated were seeking to leave Ukraine for Russia, America, Israel, Europe, anywhere else, when the intercity buses no longer ran, and when the city of Zhitomir, where I lived, reduced heat and electricity to a few hours a day, and then at times to nothing-all suggested endings, closings, failure." }, { "paper": "2319827560", "venue": "95667342", "year": "2009", "title": "pueblos spaniards and the kingdom of new mexico by john l kessell norman university of oklahoma press 2008 xii 225 pp 24 95 isbn 978 0 8061 3969 2", "label": [ "195244886" ], "author": [ "2317389778" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Pueblos, Spaniards, and the Kingdom of New Mexico.

W. Meinig argued that certain landscapes \"are part of the iconography of nationhood, part of the shared set of ideas and memories and feelings which bind a people together\" (1979b, 164). He identified three \"symbolic\" landscapes, described historically. The first comprised the seventeenth- through nineteenth-century New England village with its central green, or commons, Protestant church, and meeting house. This humanized landscape, according to Meinig, identified American values of democracy and community and the role of religion in shaping the foundation of the nation. As northeastern and midwestern villages and towns grew in the nineteenth century, their Main Streets dramatically represented the growth of commercial interests in the economy. They remain in story and memory today as the nostalgia of small-town community life, and their architecture of marble or granite bank facades and red-brick retail shops gave form to the concept of progress as economic, even as the county courthouse represented the role of law in an emerging society. Finally, Meinig identified the Southern California suburb as the defining landscape of twentieth century America: the single-family house on a small lot, an automobile-centered society of nuclear families, an antiurban spatial rearrangement where race and class were in tension between the former American values of independence and community. All three symbolic landscapes were cultural landscapes; that is, they were constructs of U.S. society, images of social, economic, and political forces on the land. Meinig's choice of artifacts and images that constitute each of the three landscapes points to specific underlying themes in U.S. culture. Meinig described his interest in symbolic landscapes in an autobiographical essay, A Life of Learning: I have paid particular attention to symbolic landscapes as representations of American values and generally tried to use the landscape as a kind of archive full of clues about cultural character and historical change that one can learn to read with ever greater understanding. At the same time landscape is always more than a set of data; it is itself an integration, a composition, and one tries to develop an ever keener appreciation of that. It is here that geography makes its most obvious connection with aesthetics, with writers and poets and painters and all those who try to capture in some way the personality of a place, or the mystery of place in human feelings. (Meinig 1992, 16) The power of Meinig's descriptions enables the reader to conjure up an identifiable image and recognize its symbolic value. These landscape images continue to influence America's understanding of itself and of the conflicting values that shape social and political policies. Perceptions of the natural landscape, however, have equally formed U.S. culture and shaped social, political, economic, and environmental policies. A discourse on nature and its social representation framed America's historical narrative. Perceptions of and meanings attached to nature and landscape have changed over time. As both Donald Meinig and David Lowenthal observed, \"any landscape is composed not only of what lies before our eyes but lies within our heads\" (Meinig 1979a, 34; see also Lowenthal 1961; Meinig 1992, 16). Landscape as nature is but one \"version\" of landscape, according to Meinig. In \"The Beholding Eye\" he offers ten versions of landscape that describe \"the essence\" and \"the organizing ideas\" that \"make sense\" out of what is seen (1979a, 34). Landscape as nature is the initial version in Meinig's typology. It is closely followed by landscape as habitat, artifact, system, problem, wealth, ideology, history, place, and aesthetic. In this article I suggest that \"landscape as nature\" formed America's other symbolic landscape and that its transformation to a humanized landscape reflected perceptual manifestations of the idea of landscape as characterized by Meinig's ten versions (1979a). \u2026" }, { "paper": "2271761027", "venue": "173880072", "year": "2009", "title": "a dugong bone mound the neolithic ritual site on akab in umm al quwain united arab emirates", "label": [ "166957645", "195244886" ], "author": [ "2213902688", "2293566314", "2260314958", "2659582107" ], "reference": [ "136808884", "616121143", "641394428", "1576496260", "1909880476", "1982725436", "1984824646", "1987040141", "1988539187", "1996660587", "2022632997", "2023227730", "2051949782", "2079716710", "2087409703", "2088656357", "2118568993", "2128762617", "2207397666", "2286494866", "2524246806", "2556288685", "2771724098", "2784829377" ], "abstract": "the authors present a remarkable site with a remarkable interpretation a structured platform of dugong bones containing skulls laid in parallel and ribs in sets together with artefacts of the neolithic period they propose that the bones have been symbolically arranged and the mound as a whole had a ritual purpose an interpretation endorsed by analogy with dugong platforms noted in the torres strait in recent times", "title_raw": "A dugong bone mound. the Neolithic ritual site on Akab in Umm al-Quwain, United Arab Emirates", "abstract_raw": "The authors present a remarkable site with a remarkable interpretation: a structured platform of dugong bones, containing skulls laid in parallel and ribs in sets, together with artefacts of the Neolithic period.

Focusing on Sudanese representations of Ethiopia as well as on the causes underlying the conflict, we confront a Mahdist chronicle of particular historiographical significance with a range of historical sources. Departing from a purely jihadist framework of analysis, we highlight various Mahdist conceptualizations of Christian Ethiopia as well as historical, political, military and economic processes conducive to the outbreak of an armed confrontation between the two independent African states. The paper argues that the Sudanese ruling elite resorted to jihadist discourse as a legitimizing device rather than as an inflexible policy, and examines more specific rhetoric instruments meant to justify Mahdist attitudes towards the Christian kingdom. Whereas prophetical visions were used to make the Khalifa's Ethiopian policy acceptable to Mahdist eyes, the ambivalent legacy of early Muslim-Aksumite contacts was reactivated in the framework of a dialogue with the Ethiopian enemy." }, { "paper": "2322425772", "venue": "30381306", "year": "2009", "title": "the first africans african archaeology from the earliest toolmakers to most recent foragers lawrence barham peter mitchell", "label": [ "2778736641", "195244886" ], "author": [ "2677649689" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "The First Africans: African Archaeology from the Earliest Toolmakers to Most Recent Foragers.

However, the only source (the so-called Conversio Bagoariorum et Carantanorum) ever cited to support this \u2018fact\u2019 makes no such statement. While modern printed editions of the Conversio do contain a statement connecting Pribina with Nitra, editors of the text recognize that this connection must have been a marginal gloss that found its way into some manuscripts much later. Assertions that two other sources, the Heimo-Urkunde and the Theotmarbrief, prove that Nitra was a part of a Moravian realm as early as c.830 cannot stand careful scrutiny. The Heimo-Urkunde, an original source dated 888, does not mention Nitra at all. While it does make a passing reference to Moravians, it does not locate them geographically. The Theomarbrief, if its authenticity can be trusted, dates from c.900 and can only establish that Nitra first became a part of the Moravian realm during the reign of Duke Sventibald (c.870\u201394), who conquered it and converted its pagan residents." }, { "paper": "2027399705", "venue": "197577296", "year": "2009", "title": "lois potter and joshua calhoun eds images of robin hood medieval to modern newark university of delaware press 2008 pp 286 65 00 cloth", "label": [ "52119013" ], "author": [ "2496677316" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Lois Potter and Joshua Calhoun, eds.

macroevolutionary approach in archaeology represents the most recent example in a long tradition of applying principles of biological evolution to the study of culture change archaeologists working

Study of Culture Change", "abstract_raw": "The macroevolutionary approach in archaeology represents the most recent example in a long tradition of applying principles of biological evolution to the study of culture change. Archaeologists working within this paradigm see macroevolutionary theory as an effective response to the shortcomings of neo-Darwinian biological evolution for studying cultural evolution. Rather than operating at the level of individual traits, macroevolutionary archaeologists emphasize the role of hierarchical processes in culture change. While neo-Darwinian archaeologists disavow any element of human intent in culture change, to macroevolutionary archaeologists human agency is a key component of cultural evolution that allows cultures to respond to pressures more quickly and with greater degree of flexibility and directedness than found in biological evolution. Major culture change, when it happens, is likely to be rapid, even revolutionary, with periods of rapid change separated by periods of relative stasis of actively maintained stability. The emergence of Neolithic cultures has long been recognized as one of two periods of major revolutionary culture change in human prehistory. Here I examine the record for the Near East, tracing the empirical record for the origin of agriculture in this region, as well as other demographic, social, and ideological components of Neolithic emergence. While the empirical record from the Near East subscribes in a general way to basic principles of macroevolutionary theory, cultural evolution cannot be understood through appeal to principles of biological evolution alone, whether based in macroevolutionary theory or neo-Darwinianism. Instead, the key role of human agency in culture change distinguishes cultural evolution from biological evolution and requires a more pluralistic and less doctrinaire appeal to multiple models of change based in both the biological and social sciences." }, { "paper": "2104268579", "venue": "45659824", "year": "2009", "title": "literature e baragwanath motivation and narrative in herodotus oxford classical monographs oxford oxford university press 2008 pp xii 374 65 9780199231294", "label": [ "74916050" ], "author": [ "2563607432" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Literature (E.)

Livingstone has argued remains the most pressing task for historians of geography: to write \u2018the historical geography of geography\u2019. Born in Scotland in 1778, MacQueen was one of the many \u2018arm-chair\u2019 geographers whose efforts at synthesising contemporary and historical sources were a significant feature of the encounter between Europe and the rest of the world. Indeed, although he never visited Africa, his speculations about the course and termination of the River Niger turned out to be broadly correct. What makes MacQueen a particularly significant figure was the original source of his theory: enslaved Africans in a Caribbean plantation-colony. In this light, a remark that MacQueen's imagination was \u2018taken captive by the mystery of the Great River\u2019 carries a dark double-meaning, because \u2018captive\u2019 knowledge was the very source of MacQueen's interest in African geography. Beginning with MacQueen's time in Grenada, the paper explores a series of personal relations, textual traces and West African ethno-histories to reveal how his geographical knowledge and expertise were bound up with Atlantic slavery. This shows not only how the colonial economy, centred on the Caribbean, underwrote the production of geographical knowledge about Africa, but also how British geographical discourse and practice might be probed for traces of Atlantic slavery and enslaved African lives. More generally, the case of James MacQueen illuminates a broader field of relationships between Atlantic slavery, West African exploration, and the development of modern British geography in the late eighteenth and first half of the nineteenth centuries. Examining these relationships is key to writing a \u2018historical geography of British geography and Atlantic slavery\u2019 and contributes to postcolonial histories of the discipline by revealing the tangled relationships that bound geography and slavery, knowledge and subjugation, that which \u2018captivates\u2019 and those held \u2018captive\u2019." }, { "paper": "1964053699", "venue": "31769938", "year": "2009", "title": "a glazing scheme for archbishop john stafford", "label": [ "527923745", "2781119825", "74916050", "2780480986" ], "author": [ "2642012672" ], "reference": [ "943219316", "1972553393", "1976718201" ], "abstract": "this article examines a document among william worcester s papers at the british library it is argued that the document a selective list of archbishops of canterbury and bishops of bath and wells was intended to form the basis for a glazing scheme to be commissioned by john stafford archbishop of canterbury it is suggested that this may have been intended for croydon palace in surrey an analysis of the list provides information not only about stafford s interests in this commission but his artistic patronage in general the document is set alongside the commissions of stafford s episcopal contemporaries to draw wider conclusions about episcopal patronage of the visual arts in the fifteenth century", "title_raw": "A Glazing Scheme for Archbishop John Stafford", "abstract_raw": "This article examines a document among William Worcester's papers at the British Library.

(1) Unknown to Custer, Black Kettle's band was the smallest and westernmost camp of thousands of nearby Native Americans in the Washita Valley. Of the approximately 250 residents of the camp, possibly 103 Cheyenne and their allies, including women and children, died in the frigid cold and snow-covered landscape. The U.S. Army also took 53 women and children prisoners, destroyed about 50 Indian lodges, and shot 800 horses and mules (Brill 1938; Hoig 1976; Greene 2004; Hardorff 2006). (2) The natural landscape at the Washita battle site has slowly evolved since 1868, and interpretation of the events that transpired there, particularly by descendants of the Cheyenne warriors, non-natives, and local residents, has changed several times. Until recently, commemoration at the battle site has inaccurately or inadequately depicted past events. Because the National Park Service (NPS) is currently revising the interpretation presented at the Washita Battlefield National Historic Site, an opportunity exists to balance perspectives on the events of 1868. Federal officials are supplementing traditional non-native narratives with Cheyenne viewpoints. Previous research focused on the military and political consequences of the Washita battle, and scholars have ignored the significance of changing interpretations (see, for example, Hoig 1976; Greene 2004). In this article I examine the changing interpretation of the battle site and evaluate the conflicting impact of these viewpoints. I used information gathered from repeated visits to the site, details available from the historical record, new oral histories that highlight Cheyenne viewpoints, and informal discussions with Cheyenne and non-native people about Cheyenne sacred sites. My analysis questions the commonly accepted representations of past events at the Washita, gives voice to Cheyenne collective memory, and aids in the creation of an inclusive depiction of the historical and contemporary significance of the Washita Battlefield National Historic Site. INTERPRETING SACRED AND HISTORIC PLACES Geographers have long attempted to interpret sacred landscapes, for they are frequently unifying places that are representative of the perspectives of individuals, communities, and cultures (Jackson and Henrie 1983). Often they are the most valued and revered spaces of a culture, because their widely shared significance outweighs competing values and potential uses of the site (Lamme 1989; Black 2004). To many observers, however, sacred landscapes are intrinsically personal spaces that hold a variety of meanings to different people, meanings rooted in personal memories and family stories that reinforce the sacred nature of the place. Sacred places are locations that transmit both visual and sensory messages to observers, triggering strong emotions regarding personal identity, collective memory, and sense of place (O'Keeffe 2007). Authors of memorialization efforts reshape sacred sites by evaluating historical events based on their own personal understanding (see, for example, Linenthal 1991; Chidester and Linenthal 1995; Alderman 2000; Foote 2003; Blake 2004). In particular, observers sanctify and designate places of violence and tragedy for special commemoration, although often memorialization does not accurately reflect past events (Lowenthal 1976; Foote 2003). Interest groups frequently preserve tragic sacred locations such as massacre sites in order to delineate past inhumane actions, commemorate the dead, and evoke collective feelings that past mistakes will neither be repeated nor forgotten (Mayo 1988). Historic sites are often profane tourist spaces that promote the consumption of national images and identities. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2044905415", "venue": "49405560", "year": "2010", "title": "public indians private cherokees tourism and tradition on tribal ground the national museum of the american indian critical conversations", "label": [ "18918823" ], "author": [ "2337405416" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Public Indians, Private Cherokees: Tourism and Tradition on Tribal Ground; The National Museum of the American Indian: Critical Conversations", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "1702387019", "venue": "173880072", "year": "2010", "title": "new rock art discoveries in the kurnool district andhra pradesh india", "label": [ "58009596", "205783811", "2776381685", "166957645" ], "author": [ "1991073686", "1800370487", "2128423937", "2128617633", "107451963", "2038296559" ], "reference": [ "99000387", "423995787", "562556900", "565571001", "567946716", "606351355", "633273487", "1508445346", "1534516126", "1977998079", "2004866357", "2010509385", "2029027487", "2029508807", "2033723029", "2072612683", "2072741237", "2105768691", "2113170168", "2130308322", "2139110192", "2147269389", "2157489587", "2257419562", "2262879141", "2316189413", "2320561994", "2801773619" ], "abstract": "the authors have surveyed the little known paintings of the kurnool area in central south india bringing to light the varied work of artists active from the palaeolithic to the present day by classifying the images and observing their local superposition and global parallels they present us with an evolving trend from the realistic drawings of large deer by hunter gatherers through the symbolic humans of the iron age to the hand prints of more recent pilgrims and garish life size modern scarecrows here are the foundations for one of the world s longest sequences of rock art", "title_raw": "New rock art discoveries in the Kurnool District, Andhra Pradesh, India", "abstract_raw": "The authors have surveyed the little known paintings of the Kurnool area in central south India, bringing to light the varied work of artists active from the Palaeolithic to the present day.

Local Government and Neo-Traditional Authority in Late-Colonial Northern Sudan*", "abstract_raw": "I know all about councils-talking themselves white in the face And deciding on what suits nobody and doing it all over the place. This quotation from a piece in a 1950s issue of Punch, entitled \"Frustrated Export to New Britain,\" is a cynical comment on the establishment of elected local councils in Britain's imperial territories after World War II.1 It amused the director of local government in Sudan sufficiently for him to keep it among his personal papers. But the image of \"talking themselves white in the face\" hints at how the introduction of \"Local Government\" in the British Empire was part of a wider project of postwar imperial policy to make \"other\" political cultures look less \"other\" and more like the metropole itself. Imperial subjects sitting on councils were now ordering their business in line with metropolitan models of ritualized council meetings, thus partially entering what was still a privileged sphere of whiteness. In doing so, they were imagined by the colonial state to become statesmen of the future, authentically local, yet simultaneously modern leaders of their communities, able to speak both the language of their people and the language of the bureaucratic state. But they were also hoped to form a bulwark against the spread of nationalism among local communities. Local government was thus envisaged as both a disciplinary training ground for future political independence as well as a means of stalling movement towards that very eventuality. The \"second colonial occupation\" of post World War II British-ruled Africa, and the resistance it provoked, has received much attention from historians.2 Nevertheless, among the compelling narratives leading up to decolonization, shifts in the structures of local government have been accorded less study than they deserve.3 Reform of local administration might at first sight fit easily into narratives of late-imperial modernization projects, and moves towards self-government. As \"modern\" institutions of local government, councils were intended to facilitate development, not to hold it back as \"traditional\" authorities might. John Cell writes in a standard history of the British Empire that \"once the British began to think seriously about the possibility of African selfgovernment, Indirect Rule was discarded.\"4 Killingray and Rathbone argue that after World War II \"the educated elite was enlisted as a partner of the colonial state; traditional rulers and the systems of authority slowly assembled in the inter-war years were abandoned and gradually wound down.\"5 But to what extent is this an accurate portrait of postwar local administration? Mamdani takes a far more skeptical view: elected representatives rubbed shoulders with appointed traditional leaders in ethnically defined district councils. Meanwhile on the ground administration remained a chiefly affair. The point of the reform, after all, was to weld together a coalition of traditional leaders and middle strata through a process of concession and conciliation short of doing away with ground-level despotism.6 In this view, then, local government was a cosmetic change, intended to buy time for colonial government to make more effective bargains with an ever more demanding educated elite, while real local power remained in the hands of the established allies of the state, so-called \"traditional\" notables or chiefs. Eckert also argues specifically of late colonial Tanganyika that \"local government\" was really \"indirect rule with a representative outlook.\"7 Anglo-Egyptian Condominium Sudan (in practice a British-ruled territory) was very much a participant in the move towards conciliar forms of local government after 1942. Government rhetoric presented local councils as a \"laboratory for self-government.\"8 Councils were to be defined territorially, not ethnically, bringing together rival groups under a single administrative unit, in order to encourage a broader political outlook that would benefit a future independent Sudanese nation-state. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2139321246", "venue": "197577296", "year": "2010", "title": "david b wilson seeking nature s logic natural philosophy in the scottish enlightenment university park pennsylvania state university press 2009 pp 344 55 00 cloth", "label": [ "74916050" ], "author": [ "2165638703" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "David B.

I argue that within the clear shift towards cultural interpretations of the imperial past, three main areas of analytical concern have taken shape: the importance of information and knowledge in empire building, the centrality of cultural difference within imperial social formations, and the place of imperial networks and patterns of cross-cultural exchange in the operation of the empire. The review suggests that the relationships between the economic and cultural domains of empire require close examination and that historians of empire must remain attentive to the weight and significance of pre-colonial structures and mentalities in moulding the shape of colonial political and cultural terrains." }, { "paper": "2018525110", "venue": "998751717", "year": "2010", "title": "lament studies in the ancient mediterranean and beyond review", "label": [ "195244886", "4646841" ], "author": [ "1761646597" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Lament.

By early 1944, when planning for the D-Day landings was advanced, the problem of the psychiatric battle casualty was considered manageable by careful preparation and clinical understanding. The campaign to liberate Europe offered the newly formed Directorate of Army Psychiatry an opportunity to demonstrate its effectiveness. Psychiatric services were deployed to Normandy to maximize the return of front-line troops to duty. Commanders, however, entertained doubts about the value of military psychiatrists. By offering a sanctioned escape route from battle, some believed that their mere presence undermined the fighting spirit of combat troops. The records of 32 General (Psychiatric) Hospital have been analysed to discover categories of troops most vulnerable to breakdown and to assess the impact of front-line treatments. Infantry soldiers, those most likely to be killed, were disproportionately represented amongst admissions. Senior non-commissioned officers were also at elevated risk of breakdown, some being war weary from earlier campaigns. Probably 36 per cent of admissions returned to combatant duty, and 53 per cent were evacuated to the UK. The scale of psychiatric casualties revealed failures in pre-deployment screening." }, { "paper": "2152160235", "venue": "97521448", "year": "2010", "title": "britannia the failed state tribal conflicts and the end of roman britain by s laycock tempus stroud 2008 pp 253 illus price 18 99 isbn 978 0 75244 614 1", "label": [ "195244886" ], "author": [ "2281007999" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Britannia: the Failed State \u2013 Tribal Conflicts and the End of Roman Britain .

cobweb hangings on the wall in stead of gold and silver brave which formerly twas wont to have with rich perfume in every room delightful to that princely train which again shall be when the time you see that the king enjoys his own again 1in the above quotation from the royalist martin parker s broadside ballad on charles i s absence from whitehall in the 1640s it is made clear that the caroline court of 1625 42 has given way to a less decadent and aesthetically structured space leaving us to wonder if the word court is appropriate at all 2 that the poem dates from the late 1640s is significant as parker remembers the past glories of the court and demonstrates the palace s fall into neglect crucially the quotation reminds us of the need to view a court in a variety of ways for this writer a fixed architectural palace is most certainly a type of court on the other hand another form of court has had to abandon whitehall and london eventually for the oxford colleges correspondingly whereas the quotation focuses on an architectural discourse in every room the poem also brings out the potentiality of a court as a moving space as that princely train signifies the court as more than a mere place and perhaps alludes to early modern progressing culture as typified by the journeys of elizabeth i and james i and even charles s own progresses including the journey to scotland in 1641 3 importantly then the extract allows a variety of definitions of the early modern court to be accessed simultaneously as the meaning of a court can be viewed as open ended perhaps even problematized 4additionally of much importance is the poem s status as a royalist assertion of community and togetherness as the text bolsters this with a reflection on the ultimate royalist structure in the period whitehall palace significantly the poem s title upon defacing of white hall makes it clear that the palace has fallen into decay owing to the king s absence of particular concern though is the point that to remove the king and his courtiers is to deface this architectural structure as a key component has been removed yet it is not at all obvious which of the features missing from the palace are the most decisive for a continuation of a healthy courtly space for instance although the quotation closes with a nostalgic refrain and the assertion of the king s need to reclaim the palace and so enjoy his own again it is unclear if the palace s greatest loss has been monarchical presence or the aestheticized elite culture that charles and his courtiers had fostered at the palace through the embrace of high art for example we can note the emphasis in the extract on the gold and silver brave and the rich perfume we detect also the way in which the assertion of royalism and the accompanying sense of community are partly dependent upon the palace itself as whitehall not only articulates the cause of monarchy in the 1640s but actually represents it in the poem therefore whitehall is able to be a substitute for the king despite its emptiness and loss part of this essay s focus will be the continuation in the 1640s of an absolutist conceptualization of courtly space that always figures architectural permanence and solidity as crucial and of the utmost importance however at the same time we need to examine carefully the implications of this move because one problem of foregrounding the court as a fixed and permanent centre of aesthetic grandeur is that this privileging of an architectural structure downgrades the importance of monarchical

for a time we see White-hallWith Cobweb-hangings on the wall,In stead of gold and silver brave,Which formerly 'twas wont to have,With rich perfume in every room,Delightful to that Princely Train,Which again shall be, when the time you see,That the King enjoys his own again.1In the above quotation from the royalist Martin Parker's broadside ballad on Charles I's absence from Whitehall in the 1640s, it is made clear that the Caroline court of 1625-42 has given way to a less decadent and aesthetically structured space, leaving us to wonder if the word 'court' is appropriate at all.2 That the poem dates from the late 1640s is significant as Parker remembers the past glories of 'the court' and demonstrates the palace's fall into neglect. Crucially, the quotation reminds us of the need to view a court in a variety of ways. For this writer, a fixed architectural palace is most certainly a type of court. On the other hand, another form of 'court' has had to abandon Whitehall and London, eventually for the Oxford colleges. Correspondingly, whereas the quotation focuses on an architectural discourse ('in every room'), the poem also brings out the potentiality of a court as a moving space, as 'that Princely Train' signifies the court as more than a mere place, and perhaps alludes to early modern progressing culture, as typified by the journeys of Elizabeth I and James I, and even Charles's own progresses, including the journey to Scotland in 1641.3 Importantly, then, the extract allows a variety of definitions of the early modern court to be accessed simultaneously, as the meaning of a court can be viewed as open-ended, perhaps even problematized.4Additionally, of much importance is the poem's status as a royalist assertion of community and togetherness, as the text bolsters this with a reflection on the ultimate royalist structure in the period, Whitehall Palace. Significantly, the poem's title, 'Upon defacing of White-hall', makes it clear that the palace has fallen into decay, owing to the king's absence. Of particular concern, though, is the point that to remove the king and his courtiers is to 'deface' this architectural structure, as a key component has been removed. Yet it is not at all obvious which of the features missing from the palace are the most decisive for a continuation of a healthy courtly space. For instance, although the quotation closes with a nostalgic refrain and the assertion of the king's need to reclaim the palace and so 'enjoy his own again', it is unclear if the palace's greatest loss has been monarchical presence, or the aestheticized elite culture that Charles and his courtiers had fostered at the palace, through the embrace of high art. For example, we can note the emphasis in the extract on the 'gold and silver brave' and 'the rich perfume'. We detect also the way in which the assertion of royalism and the accompanying sense of community are partly dependent upon the palace itself, as Whitehall not only articulates the cause of monarchy in the 1640s, but actually represents it. In the poem, therefore, Whitehall is able to be a substitute for the king, despite its emptiness and loss. Part of this essay's focus will be the continuation in the 1640s of an absolutist conceptualization of courtly space that always figures architectural permanence and solidity as crucial and of the utmost importance. However, at the same time, we need to examine carefully the implications of this move because one problem of foregrounding the court as a fixed and permanent centre of aesthetic grandeur is that this privileging of an architectural structure downgrades the importance of monarchical presence. Indeed, a king might be removed from a permanent and fixed court. In this discussion, I excavate the extent to which the Caroline court had become a fixed location at Whitehall as the royalist writers in the 1640s look back to Charles's palace, and through their well-meaning praise, actually reveal a fault line in the king's political discourse, as an architectural court has a magnificence with or without the monarch. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2127614778", "venue": "60563828", "year": "2010", "title": "a petition to a woman at the fatimid court 413 414 a h 1022 23 c e", "label": [ "109901321", "53553401", "195244886", "150152722", "3651065" ], "author": [ "254952183" ], "reference": [ "74376040", "386788707", "561758995", "573679060", "576673202", "589228200", "615958122", "617944443", "620765033", "643253874", "653342346", "1969992001", "1973645087", "1973664265", "1999553907", "2001069484", "2005712981", "2006023448", "2007158573", "2014759434", "2022637822", "2038720483", "2040939622", "2064972069", "2066000120", "2071441018", "2075196623", "2076282524", "2086689796", "2097401563", "2105491619", "2138874936", "2157856036", "2160105694", "2167403493", "2232276463", "2314817965", "2315417010", "2316358382", "2326418565", "2328253025", "2333927209", "2797609906", "2947125355", "2965678099" ], "abstract": "the genizah of the ben ezra synagogue in fustat preserved dozens of petitions addressed to the fatimid and ayyubid chanceries in cairo and decrees that they issued in response this article provides an edition translation and discussion of a petition housed among the genizah documents of the bodleian library directed to sitt al mulk half sister of the caliph al h kim 386 411 996 1021 and head of the fatimid state between his death and her own in 414 1023 geoffrey khan had previously identified two petitions to a fatimid princess housed in cambridge and new york it is likely that they too were addressed to sitt al mulk such documents elucidate sitt al mulk s role in government after her brother s death and provide evidence for the chronicler al musabbih s claim that she received and responded to petitions from subjects the article offers possible explanations as to why petitions such as this one which concerns an ismaili mosque should have found their way to the jewish community of fustat whose members reused and preserved them it also suggests some broader conclusions about the dispersal survival or disappearance of pre ottoman middle eastern archives and documents", "title_raw": "A petition to a woman at the Fatimid court (413\u2013414 a.h. /1022\u201323 c.e. )", "abstract_raw": "The Genizah of the Ben Ezra synagogue in Fustat preserved dozens of petitions addressed to the Fatimid and Ayyubid chanceries in Cairo and decrees that they issued in response.

This is no surprise, given the profession's strong orientation toward regional studies in the first half on the twentieth century and the ongoing concern about the formation of different scalar frameworks today. A survey of the pages of the Geographical Review reflects important shifts in regional approaches, from outlining \"formal\" or \"natural\" regions, to discussions of functional regions based on transportation networks or regional development policies, to more humanistic approaches concerned with regional identity and meaning. Social processes and political problems associated with regionalism have also been discussed in articles ranging from localities such as the Balkans (Cvijic 1918, 1920) to Nigeria (Prescott 1959), Sudan (Roden 1974), and Costa Rica (Hall 1984). Any naturalist notion that regions are \"out there\" waiting to be discovered has long been replaced by a more constructivist one in which regions are understood as social constructs that are formed, shaped, and even created by different agents for distinct purposes (Murphy 1991b). Although regional analyses have played an important role in the journal's offerings, they have never dominated. A search of Geographical Review titles and abstracts from the 1916 to 2004 found nearly 300 articles that contain the word \"region,\" \"regions,\" \"regional,\" \"regionalism,\" or \"regionalization\"--no more than 10 percent of all the articles published. For comparative purposes, Figure 1 shows only the number of regional articles by decade from 1920 through 1999. Admittedly, this methodology may overlook some articles with a strong regional focus, but certain trends are clear: Regional articles have persisted, but they have never dominated the pages of the Geographical Review; regional approaches and understandings have evolved; and after a decline in the 1940s and 1950s, regional analysis, be it humanistic or functional in orientation, has been a constant feature of the journal. [FIGURE 1 OMITTED] A brief essay such as this cannot do justice to the many articles presenting regional perspectives. In selecting articles or issues of the journal, I have been drawn to those regional writings that provoked or challenged geographical orderings of space. What follows is a brief discussion of the kinds of regional approaches displayed in the Geographical Review over almost a century. In particular, I will focus on two special issues of the journal--\"Oceans Connect\" (Wigen and Harland-Jacobs 1999); \"New Geographies of the Middle East\" (Stewart 2005c)--as exemplars of the vibrant regional research offered. I will conclude with suggestions of promising avenues for future regional work. WRITING REGIONS The early years of the journal witnessed concerted attempts to describe the world's \"natural regions\" as part of a basic geographical effort to fill in the map with particularistic place-based information. In this empirical approach to geographical science, natural regions were delimited and described. In the 1920s articles such as \"The Natural Regions of the French Alps\" (Blanchard 1921), \"The Natural Regions of Mexico\" (Sanders 1921), or \"Natural Regions of Czechoslovakia\" (Moscheles 1924) represented this approach. Depictions of natural boundaries, such as \"The Region of Maximum Inaccessibility in the Arctic\" (Stefansson 1920) concerned a natural boundary in the polar region where the American Geographical Society (AGS) actively supported exploration. The notion that writing such regional depictions actually created spatial units that might not otherwise exist was not addressed.

[424][1]) is one of the most exciting recent developments in research on Song Dynasty seagoing trade and technology. Scholarship on this topic has been under way for decades. In 1974, a Song Dynasty ship was unearthed and studied in Quanzhou, Fujian Province. In combination with many other sources of evidence, the find provided rich information on China's early engagement with other societies ([ 1 ][2], [ 2 ][3]).\n\n![Figure][4] \n\nCREDIT: ZHANG WANXING\n\nExperts from and on Quanzhou should have a part in the Nanhai 1 research. Unfortunately, collaboration between cities in China can be especially difficult, both in research and education. As an urban planner who has worked for 17 years on historic preservation in Quanzhou, I have observed the city's efforts to obtain UNESCO World Heritage status on the basis of its importance to China's Maritime Silk Road, an effort in which no Chinese city has yet succeeded. UNESCO encourages multiple jurisdictions to apply together for one \u201cproperty\u201d when the heritage is extended across many geographic locations. To be successful, the Chinese central government must do more to facilitate collaboration among Quanzhou, Guangzhou, and other port cities in China and abroad that contributed to the trade.\n\n1.

The essay first traces the interconnected processes of \"decentering\" history in Western historiography in the half century after World War II: the move to working people and \"subaltern classes\"; to women and gender; to communities defined by ethnicity and race; to the study of non-Western histories and world or global history, in which the European trajectory is only one of several models. Can the historian hold onto the subjects of \"decentered\" social and cultural history, often local and full of concrete detail, and still address the perspectives of global history? To suggest an answer to this question, I describe my own decentering path from work on sixteenth-century artisans in the 1950s to recent research on non-European figures such as the Muslim \"Leo Africanus\" (Hasan al-Wazzan). I then offer two examples in which concrete cases can serve a global perspective. One is a comparison of the literary careers of Ibn Khaldun and Christine de Pizan in the scribal cultures on either side of the Mediterranean in the late fourteenth and early fifteenth centuries. The other is the transmission and transformation of practices of divination, healing, and detection from Africa to the slave communities of Suriname in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries." }, { "paper": "2314368941", "venue": "197577296", "year": "2011", "title": "sheryllyne haggerty anthony webster and nicholas j white eds the empire in one city liverpool s inconvenient imperial past studies in imperialism manchester manchester university press 2008 pp xiv 237 55 00 cloth", "label": [ "195244886", "2778495208" ], "author": [ "2702388434" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Sheryllyne Haggerty, Anthony Webster, and Nicholas J.

A diachronic study of living quarters reveals two organizational approaches based on very different principles. The Bronze Age societies consisted of ephemeral family units: their huts are scattered, being relocated completely and regularly about every decade. From 800 BC onward, nucleated and permanent villages are formed: they are centred around \u2018the house\u2019. This is an institution that shelters generations of a family; it is the basic cell of the social order introduced in the Iron Age when everyday domestic practices were differently organized. Dwelling places become larger and are rebuilt over earlier ones.

Using data on tropical countries collected between 1950 and 2004, the study finds that the probability of new civil conflicts breaking out in El Nino years is double that seen in cooler La Nina years. Overall, these findings suggest that the ENSO may have played a part in initiating 21% of all civil conflicts since 1950. This study represents the first demonstration that the stability of modern societies is associated with the global climate. It has been proposed that changes in global climate have been responsible for episodes of widespread violence and even the collapse of civilizations1,2. Yet previous studies have not shown that violence can be attributed to the global climate, only that random weather events might be correlated with conflict in some cases3,4,5,6,7. Here we directly associate planetary-scale climate changes with global patterns of civil conflict by examining the dominant interannual mode of the modern climate8,9,10, the El Nino/Southern Oscillation (ENSO). Historians have argued that ENSO may have driven global patterns of civil conflict in the distant past11,12,13, a hypothesis that we extend to the modern era and test quantitatively. Using data from 1950 to 2004, we show that the probability of new civil conflicts arising throughout the tropics doubles during El Nino years relative to La Nina years.

That the palace sent offerings caused many scholars to assume the religious sector was dependent on the palaces for its daily maintenance. The sanctuaries were therefore also thought to have been subject to palatial authority. However, more detailed analysis shows that the offerings could not have fully supported the sanctuaries, which eliminates the main argument used to support the idea that the sanctuaries were subject to palatial authority. This also indicates that the offerings cannot be interpreted as part of a real system of redistribution. Like the religious sphere, the individual communities found within palatial territory, referred to as da-mo, or damos, have been seen as subject to the political and economic control of the palace. However, a closer look at the textual evidence shows that each damos maintained a significant degree of independence from the palace. We may therefore posit (at least) three spheres of economic influence in Mycenaean states: the palace, the sanctuaries, and the damos." }, { "paper": "2157675843", "venue": "43579522", "year": "2011", "title": "thomas stothard s illustrations for the royal engagement pocket atlas 1779 1826", "label": [ "554144382", "2779749002", "52119013" ], "author": [ "2133001542" ], "reference": [ "156774436", "608293083", "612437623", "1533439695", "1548212666", "1881282775", "1974562816", "1979766394", "2017901434", "2018714001", "2024044604", "2056933543", "2075671824", "2086007346", "2480346540", "2767509420", "2795580262", "2797612975", "2804579600" ], "abstract": "this essay offers an account of a nowadays very rare late eighteenth and early nineteenth century pocket diary cum almanac for a multifarious audience deriving largely from the middling ranks of british society the royal engagement pocket atlas a contribution to the history of the ephemeral book it sketches the variety of illustrated pocket books in the 1790s and examines both the marketing strategies employed by its publisher and the importance of book illustration for the formation of a canon of literary texts at the end of the eighteenth century considering some of thomas stothard s vignette illustrations for the publication the essay investigates the ideologically representative meanings of these illustrative paratexts and relates them to proliferating cultures of consumerism focusing on the genesis fashioning and long life of the pocket atlas it will explore some of the interpretive narratives of the printed designs and discuss the cultural phenomenon of the almanac for the middle and upper classes as an ephemeral and desirable production of the exploding field of eighteenth century print culture", "title_raw": "Thomas Stothard's Illustrations for The Royal Engagement Pocket Atlas, 1779\u20131826", "abstract_raw": "This essay offers an account of a nowadays very rare late eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century pocket diary-cum-almanac for a multifarious audience deriving largely from the middling ranks of British society, The Royal Engagement Pocket Atlas .

In Europe, the territorial agreements of 1919-20 put forward an ideal of territorial homogeneity, a concept based on the ideal correspondence of state, nation and territory. Meanwhile, in Africa, the French colonizers were also reconsidering their spatial arrangements along the same lines. In this context, the expertise of the social sciences became crucial in defining territory and therefore in political decision-making. At the same time, prominent representatives of the new colonial sciences were responsible for developing and disseminating the idea of the 'artificiality' of African boundaries. This new generation of experts on French colonization considered the borders of Africa to be scars left behind by the old and arbitrary colonial order, which they wished to see replaced by a more humanistic rule. Their discourses, however, offered a vision of Africa based on the continent's exceptional character. In essence, Africa was considered as a continent defined principally along ethnic territorial lines, a logic excluding any political definition of territory. This discourse contributed to redefining the continent as something radically other." }, { "paper": "1992006505", "venue": "202848731", "year": "2011", "title": "the institutionalisation of colonial geography in france 1880 1940", "label": [ "531593650", "125109622" ], "author": [ "2791114534" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "abstract between 1880 and 1900 the conjunction of the development of higher education in france with the renewal of colonial expansion resulted in the creation of the colonial sciences colonial geography played a key role in the development of these new disciplines alongside colonial history ethnology colonial economics and legislation and colonial psychology this paper considers the social history of this field and of the institutions in which colonial geography was formed this involves examination of the study of the teaching of colonial geography in the universities and french grandes ecoles the gradual professionalisation of scholarship and the increase in the number of doctoral theses and book publications which all serve to demonstrate the vigour of the subdiscipline leading to the emergence of a veritable research community under the third republic colonial geography in the universities was characterised by great diversity irreducible to a single or homogenous colonial discourse", "title_raw": "The institutionalisation of \u2018colonial geography\u2019 in France, 1880\u20131940", "abstract_raw": "Abstract Between 1880 and 1900, the conjunction of the development of higher education in France with the renewal of colonial expansion resulted in the creation of the \u2018colonial sciences\u2019. \u2018Colonial geography\u2019 played a key role in the development of these new disciplines, alongside \u2018colonial history\u2019, \u2018ethnology\u2019, \u2018colonial economics and legislation\u2019 and \u2018colonial psychology\u2019.

Central to the book (and critical to answering the question posed in its title) are the interactions between these and other societies, interactions that Wengrow sees as inseparably cosmological and economic. There is a particular straw man to be burned here: the idea that civilizations are bounded and isolated entities that interact infrequently and in exceptional circumstances. The most recent emergence of this straw man, and the one to which Wengrow is responding, is in the idea of an impending \u201cclash of civilizations\u201d promulgated by the late historian Samuel Huntington, who foresaw a future of conflict between China, the Arab Middle East, and the West. Despite its reliance on antiquity, Huntington\u2019s argument is remarkably uninformed by the work of actual ancient historians and archaeologists. Wengrow aims to demonstrate archaeologically the falsity of the isolated-civilizations model. He rightly declares that \u201cstraw men have a habit of resurrecting themselves, even after numerous attempts at incineration. Burning them is not a one-off exercise\u201d (p. 13). Wengrow\u2019s torch is a series of short and provocative essays that proceeds chronologically, starting from prehistoric times, when Egypt and the Near East existed in wider but largely separate worlds, to a Bronze Age (primarily the third millennium BC) in which economic and ritual \u201cimperatives\u201d forced the widespread movement of commodities between them. In the Neolithic world, trade and interaction were already widespread. North African societies, for example, shared traditions of boiling-based cooking that had led to broad similarities in ceramics, and they used the body to inscribe the community into its landscape via burials. The Near East, on the other hand, had grinding and roasting food-preparation technologies, and the body and houses were associated closely via defleshing and physical incorporation of body elements." }, { "paper": "2333482781", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2011", "title": "larry m loguerace ethnicity and disability veterans and benefits in post civil war america foreword by dickthornburgh disability law and policy series new york cambridge university press 2010 pp xxii 215 85 00 reviews of bookscanada and the united states", "label": [ "6303427", "81631423" ], "author": [ "2651361491" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Larry M.

In the autumn of 2010, several thousand Western Saharans (known as Saharawis) set up an encampment at the settlement of Gdaim Izik, a few kilometers east of the territorial capital of El-Ayoun, in order to protest the actions of Morocco, which has occupied the former Spanish colony since late 1975 and whose disputed status has produced a diplomatic impasse of over three decades' duration. The Gdaim Izik camp was designed by its organizers to be a nonviolent way of resisting the political repression, economic corruption and favoritism, and general lack of development and opportunities by Morocco, which has characterized the occupation. News of the camp- as well as the conditions that led to its establishment- spread rapidly by means of electronic social media unheard of only a decade ago, including Facebook and Twitter as well as cell phones and Internet videos. All of this publicity had been steadily restricting- probably permanently- the ability of Morocco to control which information about the territory was accessible to outsiders. But on November 8, Rabat's formidable security forces struck back, forcibly dismantling the camp and injuring and arresting perhaps hundreds of protesters. At least two dozen persons on both sides were killed, and rioting soon spread to the center of El-Ayoun in what was the worst outbreak of unrest in Western Sahara in many years. The actions at Gdaim Izik also captured the attention, however temporarily, of the international mainstream news media, focusing renewed attention on the struggle between Morocco and the Polisario Front, which has always advocated an independent Western Sahara. Gdaim Izik was also an eerie forerunner of the massive unrest in North Africa that toppled Tunisia's dictatorship in January 2011 and Egypt's a month later, and put several other North African and Middle Eastern regimes, including those in Libya, Syria and Bahrain, under severe popular pressure. With the situation in Western Sahara and the region as a whole in such flux, it is essential for interested persons to have a one-volume history and analysis of this long conflict that is both factually correct and takes account of not only Morocco and Polisario, but also other regional and external actors, including France and the United States. The authors of Western Sahara: War, Nationalism, and Conflict Irresolution largely succeed in giving the reader a comprehensive tour d'horizon of the dispute, one that begins with the 1975-91 war between Morocco and Polisario and continues with chapters describing the political rivalries in North Africa, which strongly affected the conflict, the policies of external actors, the development of Saharawi nationalism, and the \"expressions\" of that nationalism with respect both to events in the Moroccan-occupied zone of Western Sahara and in Polisario' s system of refugee camps in the Tindouf region of southwestern Algeria. There is also an extensive treatment of the United Nations effort during the 1990s (and beyond) that at first sought to hold a referendum of self-determination among the indigenous inhabitants of the territory (an endeavor that foundered due mostly to Morocco's extravagant demand that tens of thousands of persons previously disqualified from voting should be allowed to cast ballots after all), followed by a plan for the institution of some form of internal autonomy for the territory under overall Moroccan sovereignty. Prospects for the realization of this alternative are dim, not only because of Polisario's categorical rejection of the concept but also due to the reluctance of some UN Security Council members to countenance a non-referendum solution to the conflict.

The concept has been a significant motivation for modifying the environment in Korea. The zeal held by geomancy practitioners in Korea for improving the local landscape is worth of comparing with the notion, held by medieval monastic monks in Europe, that humanity partners with God to improve creation the earth's environment. (1) This comparison highlights the existence of distinct Eastern and Western cultural geographies in modifying the environment. Some scholars consider feng shui, or Chinese geomancy, a superstition (Needham 1962, 239), the rudiments of natural science (Eitel 1873, title p.), or a quasi-religious and pseudo-scientific system (de Groot 1897, 935). A more recent Western scholar declared that Chinese geomancy still remains as an enigma by stating that \"if there is a subject which should have captivated Western sinologists, it is Chinese geomancy\" (Lemoine 1974, 1). This Chinese art is becoming popular among Chinese immigrants in the West and is attracting considerable attention as a curious and mysterious means of spatial divination. Feng shui is \"the unique and highly systemized ancient Chinese art of selecting auspicious sites and arranging harmonious structures such as graves, houses, and cities on them by evaluating the surrounding landscape and cosmological directions\" (Yoon 2006, 4). This idea has made a tremendous impact on East Asian culture. For instance, Chinese geomancy has influenced the layout of major East Asian cities, including Beijing and Nanjing in China, Seoul and Kaesong in Korea, and Kyoto and Nara in Japan (pp. 217-273). However, this ancient East Asian system of divining locations cannot be easily classified or labeled using a Western term. Simply put, it is not a clear-cut superstition, religion, or science but an art that comprises all three (Yoon 2006, 311; 2007, 104). My aim in this article is to examine an important form of the Korean geomantic idea of pibo--that is, chosan pibo, or the idea of remedying inadequacies of an auspicious place by constructing hills--in order to introduce and expand academic understanding of the concept, which Western scholars have neglected. The article also contributes to and enriches the existing literature on \"human modification of nature\" and \"symbolic landscape\" by adding a new, East Asian geomantic dimension with a relatively unknown Korean idea. Human impact on the environment was a key and popular research topic among geographers, especially Berkeley School geographers, of the early modern period (approximately from the 1920s through the 1970s). Clarence Glacken's 1967 Traces on the Rhodian Shore includes the most significant intellectual inquiry into Western ideas relating to the human impact on the natural environment from ancient times to the end of the eighteenth century. A conference on \"Man's Role in Changing the Face of the Earth,\" organized by Carl O. Sauer and his collaborators and held on 16-22 June 1955, was a monumental event in this research tradition (Thomas 1956). Many historical-cultural geographers including, James Parsons, Robert West, Hugh Prince, and William Denevan, left their marks on this academic tradition (West 1949; Parsons 1949; Prince 1964; Denevan 1978). In the 1980s more biogeographically inclined geographers carried on the tradition; their achievements are reflected in works by Andrew Goudie and Ian Gordon Simmons (Goudie 1990; Simmons 1996). The study of the human modification of nature has continued into the twenty-first century, although by more physical geographers than historical-cultural geographers.

It was revealed that: many of the frontier fortifications described were initially built before the sixth century; the fortified \u03ba\u03bbe\u03b9\u03c3\u03bf\u03cd\u03c1\u03b1 mentioned should be equated with the Dhema Pass; and the commercial settlement of Myropoles is best identified with the modern village of Kato Dhio Vouna. Written in Attic prose, this passage represents a rhetorical exercise, the climax of which turned not on the ancient battlefield of Thermopylae, but rather on a mountain pass and it's highway that neutralized the Thermopylae defenses if they were ever controlled by the enemy. We were told that only the Emperor Justinian's wisdom could grasp this critical fact. Additionally, Procopius employed many rhetorical devices in this narrative: \u03c4\u03cc\u03c0\u03bf\u03c2, \u03c7\u03c1\u03cc\u03bd\u03bf\u03c2, \u03c0\u03c1\u1fb6\u03b3\u03bc\u03b1, \u1f04\u03b3\u03b1\u03bb\u03bc\u03b1, \u1f14\u03ba\u03d5\u03c1\u03b1\u03c3\u03b9\u03c2, \u03c0\u03b1\u03bd\u03b7\u03b3\u03c5\u03c1\u03b9\u03ba\u03cc\u03c2 and employed imperial propaganda, praise, and exaggeration as well. In short, the passage is a classic example of selective story telling that may have found its inspiration in the Hunnic raid of 539/540 and the Herodotean account of the Persian invasion of 480 BC. While Procopius' account remains our best topographical description of the late antique Thermopylae frontier, one can only say that more archaeological questions were left unanswered than were resolved. In short, as an archaeological source, the De aedificiis is a disappointing and vexing resource filled with equivocations. Finally, one may doubt that Procopius ever did visit the Thermopylae frontier, even though during his career he certainly had ample opportunity to do so. His account, therefore, must have been based upon secondary sources, whether imperial archival material, itineraries, or military staff reports and were not the result of personal autopsy." }, { "paper": "1530313844", "venue": "169569900", "year": "2011", "title": "slavery and the birth of an african city lagos 1760 1900", "label": [ "195244886", "2549261" ], "author": [ "2674874243" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Slavery and the Birth of an African City: Lagos, 1760-1900", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2020377895", "venue": "141988568", "year": "2011", "title": "three poems by marilyn buck", "label": [ "2780656516" ], "author": [ "2609895500" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "marilyn buck 1947 2010 spent over twenty five years in prison for politically motivated actions against u s government policies and in support of the black panthers and the black liberation army she wrote these poems behind bars as a way to comprehend the reality of prison and continue her fight as a white woman against injustice particularly u s generated white supremacy paroled in july 2010 she died of cancer twenty days after her release this article can also be found at the monthly review website where most recent articles are published in full click here to purchase a pdf version of this article at the monthly review website", "title_raw": "Three Poems by Marilyn Buck", "abstract_raw": "Marilyn Buck (1947-2010) spent over twenty-five years in prison for politically motivated actions against U.S. government policies and in support of the Black Panthers and the Black Liberation Army.

In 1945 the Red Army occupied Tallinn, Riga, Vilnius, Warsaw, Berlin, Vienna, Prague, Budapest, and Sofia, but behind the army the country lay in ruins. Its people had suffered 25 million premature deaths. The survivors were profoundly weary. Many hoped for reconciliation and relaxation.\r\n\r\nDespite this, in the years immediately following, the Soviet economy and polity returned quickly to their previous form. There was renewed political and economic mobilization. Economic resilience was reflected in rapid Soviet post-war economic recovery. Political resilience can be seen in Stalin\u2019s rapid consolidation of the political system: there would be no reforms for a decade. The rigid hierarchies of party and state control were not loosened up, but were reinforced while their frontiers were pushed outward to the shores of the Baltic and into Central Europe.\r\n\r\nWhat gave the Stalinist political economy its post-war resurgence? I will place the Soviet recovery in a broader European context. The result is a puzzle: across most of Europe there was a clear association between post-war prosperity and economic and social reforms, but not in the Soviet Union. A closer look at Soviet post-war institutions in the late 1940s suggests that if anything they were more centralized, militarized, secretive, and punitive than in the late 1930s. The rapid Soviet economic recovery from World War II becomes less surprising when we take into account the Soviet economy\u2019s very large backlog of unexploited potential, not all of it due to the war. Institutions are still important, though, because ineffective institutions can mean that unexploited potential is never realized.

The fruits of her bibliographical labors alone would have made the exercise well worth undertaking and would make the essay a valuable resource for ongoing scholarship on this subject. But Phillips-Fein has sifted through these offerings thoughtfully and has many judicious and stimulating things to say, both about where that scholarship has been and where it ought to be going in the future. If I have criticisms to offer in what follows, none should be taken to negate the great value of the essay. I think Phillips-Fein makes clear that the profession has come a long way in redressing the egregious failures that were so well described by Alan Brinkley in 1994 and so memorably exemplified by Richard Hofstadter and others in an earlier generation of postwar historians and social scientists. We might wish that the field had come further by now and that there were more scholars on the scene who had entered the field with motives and goals more complex and capacious than the desire to know their enemy, but we should also be grateful for what has been achieved so far, and Phillips-Fein\u2019s essay actually offers very little support or encouragement for the \u201cknow your enemy\u201d school of scholarship. Indeed, the newest scholarship has, she argues, \u201creversed the earlier vision of the Right as a marginal part of American life.\u201d1 Instead, her essay calls into question the reflexive pathologizing of American conservatism and insists on our \u201crecognizing the power of the conservative strain in American politics,\u201d not only in the postwar era but over the entire span of American history. For her, conservatism should be understood as part of \u201ca long tradition with deep historical roots, revitalized at different points in response to various challenges.\u201d The postwar period is therefore best understood not as a period of liberal ascendancy and conservative \u201cbacklash,\u201d but as an era \u201ccharacterized by contest and struggle all along.\u201d This seems to me an admirably accurate statement, and if Phillips-Fein is right that the historiography Less Boilerplate, More Symmetry" }, { "paper": "2067722430", "venue": "94236332", "year": "2011", "title": "glenn ligon and other runaway subjects", "label": [ "85363599", "53553401" ], "author": [ "2602432932" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "in this essay huey copeland examines contemporary artist glenn ligon9s multiple engagements with the history of american slavery particularly as evidenced by his 1993 installation to disembark as copeland shows in casting himself as a runaway slave ligon points up the relationships between the regimes of power violence and resistance that continue to produce black subjects as fugitives in life and in representation", "title_raw": "Glenn Ligon and Other Runaway Subjects", "abstract_raw": "In this essay, Huey Copeland examines contemporary artist Glenn Ligon9s multiple engagements with the history of American slavery, particularly as evidenced by his 1993 installation To Disembark .

Just when we thought it was going to be difficult to say anything new about the Florida Everglades, we now have a human geographer's take on environmental change in rural South Florida. In Raising Cane in the Glades, Hollander uses the domestic and international political economy of sugar to explain the transformation of several hundred thousand acres of Everglades marshland into the nation's Sugar Bowl. Her focus on sugar is reminiscent of Mintz's classic study Sweetness and Power: The Place of Sugar in Modern History (1985), in which the anthropologist memorably used sugar to outline the historic contours of capitalism in Europe and the Caribbean. Hollander, who teaches in the Department of International Relations at Florida International University in Miami, is dissatisfied with conventional explanations for the conversion of wetlands to developed land over the twentieth century. She acknowledges the fact that people of the early twentieth century failed to appreciate the many values of wetlands; but she draws on literatures from global food-systems theory, political ecology and geographical theorizations of regions and places--which she deftly weaves together with much archival material--to examine the discursive and material practices responsible for development (and now environmental \"restoration\") in the Everglades Agricultural Area. Unlike Mintz, who reached farther back in time, Hollander begins her story in the nineteenth century, particularly the postbellum era when roughly two-thirds of Florida remained at least periodically flooded. At that time sugar was the only significant food item for which the United States relied heavily on imports. Although sugarcane accounted for more than 95 percent of the world's sugar in 1839, sugar beets, which can be grown in much cooler climates, accounted for about two-thirds of global sugar production just fifty years later. Beginning in the later nineteenth century, however, business and political leaders in the United States called for investment in domestic sugar production in order to reduce the flow of money out of the country. (Today, similar rhetoric gushes from many Americans who demand expanded domestic oil production in order to reduce dependence on foreign imports.) Accordingly, the U.S. Congress passed the McKinley Tariff in 1890, which marked the beginning of a long history of attempts by the U.S. government to simultaneously stimulate and protect domestic sugar producers through the use of bounties and price supports for homegrown sugar as well as tariffs and quotas on foreign imports. Despite attempts to ensure an adequate supply of sugar at a reasonably steady price, the world price of sugar fluctuated wildly during much of the twentieth century. Prices occasionally skyrocketed (prompting much public protest from consumers as well as from candy and soft-drink manufacturers) and they occasionally plummeted (prompting pleas for help from domestic sugar producers). As Hollander makes clear, changes in U.S. sugar policy have also long been tied to international politics, including disruptions associated with the two world wars and the cold war politics that began in the later 1940s. For example, she points out that shifting U.S. sugar policy severely destabilized the Cuban economy in the 1890s, prompting a revolution against Spanish control; and many contemporaries believed that cutting Cuba's sugar quota to the United States in the 1950s led to the economic turmoil in Cuba that paved the way for Fidel Castro's rise. All the while, Hollander thoroughly documents the nearly constant lobbying of Congress, presidents, and the U.S. Department of Agriculture by a host of sugar interests: sugar-beet farmers in the central and western United States, representatives of Cuban sugar producers (often bankrolled with U. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2018931478", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2011", "title": "steven p millerbilly graham and the rise of the republican south politics and culture in modern america philadelphia university of pennsylvania press 2009 pp vi 304 29 95reviews of bookscanada and the united states", "label": [ "6303427" ], "author": [ "82790600" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Steven P.

That is, in order to enter its realm, those who write in Hebrew must be Jewish. Shammas, I argued, sought to de-Judaize the Hebrew language and turn it into a language shared by all Israelis, Jews and Arabs alike. Now, twenty years later, Teoria Ubikoret has published a different essay of mine, this time on Tuvya haholev (Tuvya the Dairyman), Dan Miron\u2019s Hebrew translation of the great Yiddish writer Shalom Aleichem\u2019s novel Tevye der Milhiker. I claim that while Miron\u2019s Hebrew indeed Hebraicizes Aleichem\u2019s Yiddish, it also moves in the opposite direction; it Yiddishizes Hebrew, giving Yiddish a prominent presence in the Hebrew translation and thus decentering Israeli subjectivity and undermining the cohesive force of Hebrew.3 These essays span two decades.

Re-use is shown to occur widely and is particularly associated with the late fourth to early fifth centuries a.d. , with cut-down bracelets also found in early Anglo-Saxon cemeteries. The making of smaller rings from late Roman bracelets is demonstrated to be part of a wider phenomenon of re-use, repair and recycling at the end of the Roman period in Britain, with attendant implications of cultural and economic change. It is proposed that the transformation of these artefacts was accompanied by changes in meaning which undermine the apparent continuity that is seen in the extended lifespan of the original object. This in turn illuminates the way that wider cultural norms were gradually eroded in the fifth century.

Living with Injustice How should one live? This central philosophical question can be separated into at least two parts. The first concerns the conduct and attitudes morality requires of each of us. The second is about the essential elements of a worthwhile life; it\u2019s about what it means to flourish, which includes meeting certain moral demands but is not exhausted by this. Answering this two-pronged question traditionally falls within the subdiscipline of ethics, broadly construed. Philosophers have also sought to explain what makes a society just or good, to specify the values and principles by which we are to evaluate institutional arrangements and political regimes. This is the traditional domain of political philosophy. This essay addresses a question that arises where ethics and political philosophy meet. Philosophers who attempt to answer the question of how should one live typically abstract away from the concrete sociopolitical circumstances within which individuals make their lives, circumstances that, as it turns out, may be shaped by serious injustices. This kind of idealization has its place. It is often productive to start with ideal theory, where we assume individuals are acting under reasonably just background conditions, using what we learn to better understand what choices we ought to make in our less than ideal, real lives. But there are vexing ethical questions that can be answered only if we theorize them against the background of societal injustice. The question within nonideal theory that I want to take up is how one should live under conditions of serious societal injustice. I am particularly concerned to understand how members of oppressed groups ought to live when the prospects for overcoming their oppression are uncertain or dim. As with ideal theory, answering the question of how the oppressed ought to live is not limited to specifying their moral obligations. It also entails explaining what a life well lived in the face of oppression would involve.

Markers of childhood arrest indicate earlier weaning, likely creating a cycle of rising fertility and competition, but surviving adults appear better off following intensification. Health disparities at farmsteads, including more prevalent anemia, growth defects, lower limb infections, and accidental trauma, are consistent with increasingly competing demands of domestic and corporate modes of production. Although these agricultural settlements in the hinterlands were not severely compromised as predicted by a strictly top down model of provisioning, health risks assumed by farmsteads may have resulted from provisioning to centers and/or corporate lineages while simultaneously mitigating larger risks (e.g., raiding). The greater health risks assumed by farmstead females suggest that they had less control over production and decision-making than women buried at centers, while height and upper body strength at mound centers, in addition to rare but extreme trauma, point to identities that were mapped not only onto the landscape, but onto the bodies of men and women occupying elite spaces." }, { "paper": "2115339147", "venue": "203378611", "year": "2012", "title": "milton and the reformation aesthetics of the passion by erin henriksen studies in the history of christian traditions 145 leiden netherlands brill 2010 214 pp 147 00 cloth", "label": [ "2780273408" ], "author": [ "2142158270" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Milton and the Reformation Aesthetics of the Passion .

One suspects that much of the aura surrounding the city\u2019s name comes from the wholly fictional movie and the associated mystique of Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman. Moroccans are notably marginal in the film, which, in a kind of doubling of colonial occupation, treats Casablanca as an outpost of the Vichy French regime under the thumb of the Nazis.

There is also the Corniche, with its surfing beaches and exclusive cafes, clubs, and hotels. Modern Casablanca, then, aside from its role as Morocco\u2019s financial center, is an ideal location for contemporary Hollywood fantasies such as Casablanca Express, a yarn about Nazi storm troopers kidnapping Winston Churchill and being rescued by a US Marine platoon.

By Joey Power. Rochester, NY: University of Rochester Press, 2010. Pp. 332. $85.00/\u00a350.00. Historian Joey Power probes the ways in which Nyasaland's colonial past shaped late colonial and early postcolonial political processes during and just after the liminal transition to independent nationhood. In so doing, Power historicizes local and territorial political issues and practices during a period of nation-building, and describes the interactions between political leaders of territorial notoriety and their constituents: women, youth, laborers, planters, traditional chiefs, civil servants, and cultural or religious associations. But rather than start after the Second World War, Power begins Chapter 1 with an account of popular anti-colonial uprisings or rebellions that took place in the early twentieth century, culminating in the Chilembwe rebellion of 1915. She does so with an eye to establishing the factors that pushed inhabitants to protest colonial injustices. These included the artificiality of \"traditional chiefs\" appointed and sustained by the colonial administration; the expropriation and unequal distribution of land; systems of taxation that penalized African entrepreneurs and planters while favoring white settlers; and colonial policies that funneled the labor supply onto white-owned farms while leaving African planters unable to compete. Power begins here because the Chilembwe uprising is part of the collective memory rekindled on the eve of Nyasaland's independence as protests of the injustices of colonial rule resurfaced in 1953. In Chapter 2, Power demonstrates the overlap between \"native authority structures\" comprised of chiefs, and the Western-educated elite involved in interethnic, \"native associations\" during the interwar period. In 1944, the latter formed the Nyasaland African Congress (NAC), a political organization representing the interests and goals of clergy, civil servants, small-scale planters and entrepreneurs, and wage workers, as well as those of traditional chiefs seeking \"legal reform or new avenues for economic accumulation.\" In this chapter, Power collapses the conventionally assumed either-or dichotomy between \"traditional\" and \"modern\" in African political processes. Although the NAC membership was comprised of Christianized, capitalistic, and Western-educated elite, these \"modern\" identities did not engender a rejection of ethnic or \"tribal\" identity. In fact, '\"tribal polities'\" remained \"part and parcel of the NAC agenda\" (p. 33). By engaging the notion of clan or \"tribe,\" insists Power in Chapter 3, NAC politicians parochialized national politics and used ethnicity as a mobilizing factor. Local affairs became politicized on a national scale, as political leaders responded to the concerns of their constituents throughout the territory. Because of the salience of tribe as an organizing factor in colonial Nyasaland, only by linking national politics to the parochial could they be made relevant to the population at large. In Chapter 4, Power examines the rallying force of grassroots mobilization against the Central African Federation established in 1953 to bring together Nyasaland with Northern and Southern Rhodesia. Viewing Federation as the harbinger of white settler nationalism and white minority rule, Nyasaland politicians mobilized against the project by launching a noncooperation campaign. A rejection of Federation became, according to Power, the defining factor of Malawian nationalism as politicians portrayed all issues provoking popular discontent throughout the territory's various regions, including land hunger, unpopular agricultural and natural resource rules, and the labor tenancy system known as thangata, as stemming from Federation. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2505513873", "venue": "12279879", "year": "2012", "title": "burmese poetry tectonic shifts", "label": [ "195244886", "74916050" ], "author": [ "2503315402" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Burmese Poetry: Tectonic Shifts", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2155968571", "venue": "203378611", "year": "2012", "title": "augustine s manichaean dilemma vol i conversion and apostasy 373 388 c e by beduhn divinations rereading late ancient religion philadelphia university of pennsylvania press 2010 viii 406 pp 69 95 cloth", "label": [ "2777393896" ], "author": [ "2120679812" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Augustine's Manichaean Dilemma, Vol. I: Conversion and Apostasy, 373\u2013388 C.E .

This is reflected in the archaeological record by a dramatic increase in the Cypriot pottery found in the surrounding region, widely assumed to be the by-product of an (archaeologically invisible) external demand for Cypriot copper. On the receiving end of this relationship, small numbers of imported \u2018luxury\u2019 goods appear on Cyprus. This paper discusses one aspect of exchange that has received little attention in the literature, the presence and significance of quantities of imported transport amphorae (Canaanite jars). These vessels have only rarely been recognized from excavations on Cyprus but recent examination of material from several sites reveals that they are more common than previously assumed. The Canaanite jar evidence may go some way towards redressing the apparent imbalance in goods exchanged and also to illuminate the processes through which Cypriot populations first engaged with the materiality of urban ways of ordering the world." }, { "paper": "1981023245", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2012", "title": "thomas a stapleford the cost of living in america a political history of economic statistics 1880 2000 new york cambridge university press 2009 pp xviii 421 cloth 90 00 paper 29 99", "label": [ "6303427" ], "author": [ "2483603247" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Thomas A.

Morin's biography of Daly is a doorway to consider several tensions that are still relevant today. These include tensions between scientific and \"popular\" geography, geography as a \"militant\" discipline with commercial goals, and, not least, geography as an epistemology and the politics of memory/forgetting; that is, the archive. As hinted by the book title, Civic Discipline, for Daly geography was a popular and civic enterprise. Morin documents how Daly manipulated the press and was in turn manipulated by those with \"geo-commercial\"--and imperial (p. 12)--designs on Africa. Not least of these was King Leopold II of Belgium, and the story of how Daly and the AGS were enablers of the king's appropriation of the Congo is an outstandingly original contribution. For Morin, geography is not just civic but also disciplined, in the Foucauldian sense. For Morin this means telling the story of the dialectic between thought and action: geographical thought and whether it disciplines how people think about the world and act on it. Without the right thought the action cannot take place in the way that it does. In this sense she is tackling the history of those who \"thought out space,\" in the words of Foucault (1984, 244). What were the means by which they did this? From my perspective there are the maps, but Morin also documents the interplay between geographical knowledge and public outlets, such as lectures and the news media. The most remarkable instance of this is how Daly's expertise and position not only as AGS president but also as what Morin calls a \"jurist-geographer\" enabled colonialization to take place in the Congo: \"'Geographical knowledge' thus constituted and deployed by the AGS ... such as reports to influential civic and political bodies, as well as events honoring explorers of Africa such as the infamous Henry Morton Stanley ... shed light on American involvement in colonial Africa\" (p. 21). Morin argues that Daly \"explicitly promoted a type of commercial colonization of Africa\" (p. 163). As she points out, it is little acknowledged that the United States was an active participant in nineteenth-century African colonialization. What motivated Daly--the \"gentle judge,\" as Morin calls him (p. 165)? The answer, pretty clearly, is commercial advantage dressed up in humanitarian language. Whether Daly went along with this or was deceived by Leopold is a biographical detail I will leave aside. (Morin seems to feel that overall he was not \"seduced\" by Leopold.) More important, and for me one of the significant implications of this book is the connection between academic production of knowledge and state and commercial interests. Morin's careful documentation of how this occurred--initially through British explorations of Africa and the search for the source of the Nile and Congo rivers, and later on through the AGS'S own efforts in mapping or \"armchair discovery,\" as Morin calls it (p. 167) and the drive for commercial advantage--copper, coal, tin, sugarcane, and so forth--amounted to an attempt to \"morally uplift Africa out of the depths of slavery\" through trade. Daly's opposition to the Africa slave trade contrasted with his more instrumentalist view of slaveholding in the United States. For one thing, freed slaves created a labor problem and were the \"bane\" of Irish laborers (p. 169). Effectively, Morin is giving us the other side of the story; how practice affected what one thought about an issue. There is no key moral ground here: In Africa slavery obstructed commercial advantage; in the United States the abolition of slavery obstructed commercial advantage. Daly's epistemology was geographically conditioned. \u2026" }, { "paper": "92444655", "venue": "152567572", "year": "2012", "title": "ancient repairs on pottery from olbia pontica", "label": [ "131323648", "2780127596", "130056557", "16678853", "195244886" ], "author": [ "2578229947", "2607612173" ], "reference": [ "320868047", "365646760", "562481213", "577788170", "584100387", "602638732", "620933161", "1500421556", "1966265817", "1975563995", "2026018505", "2030469615", "2043763682", "2065146578", "2066525802", "2072654089", "2093133132", "2318202317", "2322037329", "2334509187", "2472345660", "2480279688", "2487848674", "2521609261", "2522955122", "2564244377", "3183348386" ], "abstract": "ancient pottery repair has become a topic of growing interest to scholars of greek and roman pottery this particular area of study is part of a larger one devoted to the diverse types of pottery reuse in classical antiquity quantification of ancient repairs remains a fundamental problem however and periods of intensified use of repaired pottery have been difficult to identify in this article we offer an overview of the practice of mending broken pottery in the milesian apoikia of olbia pontica in the northern black sea area considering in particular the repairs on tableware from the habitation quarter of the lower city in olbia sector ngs which has recently been extensively published this article presents a diachronic analysis of repair practices in olbia during the period from the sixth to the first century b c e a comparison of the number of pottery repairs in greek settlements in the black sea region with the number in greek poleis of the mediterranean clearly demonstrates that pottery was more extensively repaired in the black sea area than in the mediterranean moreover the fluctuations in the number of repairs in olbia suggest that the practice of mending pottery can be related to periods of crisis especially in the late hellenistic period when the city was under pressure and underwent dramatic changes", "title_raw": "Ancient Repairs on Pottery from Olbia Pontica", "abstract_raw": "Ancient pottery repair has become a topic of growing interest to scholars of Greek and Roman pottery.

Quantification of ancient repairs remains a fundamental problem, however, and periods of intensified use of repaired pottery have been difficult to identify. In this article, we offer an overview of the practice of mending broken pottery in the Milesian apoikia of Olbia Pontica in the northern Black Sea area. Considering in particular the repairs on tableware from the habitation quarter of the Lower City in Olbia (sector NGS, which has recently been extensively published), this article presents a diachronic analysis of repair practices in Olbia during the period from the sixth to the first century B.C.E. A comparison of the number of pottery repairs in Greek settlements in the Black Sea region with the number in Greek poleis of the Mediterranean clearly demonstrates that pottery was more extensively repaired in the Black Sea area than in the Mediterranean. Moreover, the fluctuations in the number of repairs in Olbia suggest that the practice of mending pottery can be related to periods of crisis, especially in the Late Hellenistic period, when the city was under pressure and underwent dramatic changes." }, { "paper": "2009595397", "venue": "3880285", "year": "2012", "title": "the environment makes history", "label": [ "2776608160" ], "author": [ "2123630600" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "through unconventional environmental perspectives on nine familiar episodes in u s history fiege demonstrates the importance of the natural world for understanding the past", "title_raw": "The Environment Makes History", "abstract_raw": "Through unconventional environmental perspectives on nine familiar episodes in U.S. history, Fiege demonstrates the importance of the natural world for understanding the past." }, { "paper": "2324088397", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2012", "title": "the children of the desert and the laws of the sea austria great britain the ottoman empire and the mediterranean slave trade in the nineteenth century", "label": [ "195244886", "2775873757" ], "author": [ "2169808219" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "matteo druscovich was a ship s captain in the austrian merchant marine not a lawyer but he knew something about austrian law there can be no slaves on an austrian ship he declared referring to 95 of the 1852 penal code which stated that anyone who set foot on austrian soil or on board an austrian ship would become instantly free 1 the occasion for his statement was a proposed search of his steamship the mars on june 3 1870 while it was docked at smyrna today s izmir en route from alexandria to constantinople 2 druscovich attempted to forestall the search which would have been conducted by representatives of the british consulate in smyrna looking for slaves on board in order he explained to protect the rights and honor of our austrian flag 3 in due course the british were allowed to search the ship in the presence of the austro hungarian consul what they found showed that more than druscovich s personal honor or even austria s sovereignty over its own ships was at risk the search of the mars like countless other such searches that", "title_raw": "The Children of the Desert and the Laws of the Sea: Austria, Great Britain, the Ottoman Empire, and the Mediterranean Slave Trade in the Nineteenth Century", "abstract_raw": "MATTEO DRUSCOVICH WAS A SHIP\u2019S CAPTAIN in the Austrian merchant marine, not a lawyer, but he knew something about Austrian law. \u201cThere can be no slaves on an Austrian ship,\u201d he declared, referring to \u00a795 of the 1852 penal code, which stated that anyone who set foot on Austrian soil or on board an Austrian ship would become instantly free.1 The occasion for his statement was a proposed search of his steamship, the Mars, on June 3, 1870, while it was docked at Smyrna (today\u2019s Izmir) en route from Alexandria to Constantinople.2 Druscovich attempted to forestall the search, which would have been conducted by representatives of the British consulate in Smyrna looking for slaves on board, \u201cin order,\u201d he explained, \u201cto protect the rights and honor of our [Austrian] flag.\u201d3 In due course, the British were allowed to search the ship in the presence of the Austro-Hungarian consul.

Edited by Andrew Burton and Helene Charton-Bigot. Athens: Ohio University Press, 2010. Pp. vi, 301, index. $64.95 cloth, $29.95 paper. There are excellent demographic reasons to bring out a volume on youth in a part of the world where the median age is 17.5 years. However, as the editors of this volume note, it is not the sheer size of the youth bulge in East Africa, but its potential for unrest which drives \"a fixation shared by academics and journalists alike on youth violence\" (p. 5), linked to a broadly racist notion of Africa as innately and senselessly violent. To the authors' and editors' credit, they resist this apocalyptic fascination and offer insights into more quotidian experiences of East African youth. The psychosocial work of maturation and coming to adulthood, both individually and collectively, have preoccupied East African youth more than the chance to commit mayhem, even when this work has gone on in the shadow of violence or anarchy, as illustrated in James Giblin's chapter on Tanzania's \"Age of Improvement,\" which followed on the heels of the Maji-Maji war. The editors also resist another common assumption, one found most often in Africanist circles, that the story of youth in Africa is the story of rupture and discontinuity between younger and older generations as a result of the destabilization wrought by colonialism. The authors demonstrate that, on the one hand, clashes between young and old predated colonial penetration (as in Richard Reid's chapter on nineteenth-century warfare in the Great Lakes region), and on the other, that the interests and activities of youth often coincided with those of their elders (or with those of particular subsets of their elders, as in James Brennan's chapter on the harnessing of youth energies within TANU). Despite these important correctives, however, this book suffers badly from gender blindness. It might better be called, \"Young Men in East African History,\" because of its overwhelming, nearly exclusive, focus on men. The contributors largely omit more than half of the population they purport to describe, leaving the impression that young women are not historical actors, or more precisely, that historical action is that which is undertaken by men. (Unfortunately, the one chapter that gives young women more than cursory treatment is one of the weakest). In some chapters, women and girls appear to exist only so that young men have something to fight about besides cattle. To their credit, the editors and many of the authors acknowledge this imbalance, but acknowledging it is not the same as problematizing or addressing it.1 There is nothing wrong with a collection that focuses narrowly on male youth, but if this is to be the case, the salience of masculinity as an analytical category needs to be established. However, these contributions do not really engage with masculinity as a concept, concentrating instead on the amassing of empirical information about things men do. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2312843417", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2012", "title": "sergei i zhukrock and roll in the rocket city the west identity and ideology in soviet dniepropetrovsk 1960 1985 baltimore johns hopkins university press washington d c woodrow wilson center 2010 pp xvii 440 65 00", "label": [ "187878255" ], "author": [ "2502544986" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Sergei I.

Second, we find that considerations of edges, into which we fold such things as provinces, peripheries and frontiers, can be greatly enriched by looking at a broad range of musical phenomena, from the liturgy of Ugandan Jews to reggae-infused Polish mountain songs and from the sounds of Mozart's Black contemporary Saint-Georges to Silent Night on the Southern Seas. Finally, drawing on certain ideas from James C. Scott's The Art of Not Being Governed , we argue that paradoxically, in music, the middle often has unusual properties. In other words, musical structure mimics the ongoing battle between those in positions of authority and those who wish to evade that authority. Beginnings and endings, then, tend to be sites of power and convention, while middles attempt to subvert it. While culturally and geographically we may contrast centres and peripheries, in music the centre is often the edge." }, { "paper": "2013013215", "venue": "197577296", "year": "2012", "title": "lisa t sarasohn the natural philosophy of margaret cavendish reason and fancy during the scientific revolution the johns hopkins university studies in historical and political science baltimore johns hopkins university press 2010 pp 272 75 00", "label": [ "6303427", "74916050" ], "author": [ "2022481859" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Lisa T.

Yet looking further than Ma\u1e25m\u016bd's greed for the temple's gold and later the Delhi sultans' appetite for territory, Somnath and most other towns of Saurashtra had long-established settlements of Muslims engaged in international maritime trade. The settlers, while adhering to their own values, respected their hosts and their traditions and enjoyed the support of the local rajas. It is only in recent years that Hindu nationalist parties have revived the story of Ma\u1e25m\u016bd to evoke resentment against the era of Muslim domination, with the aim of inducing communal tensions and gaining political power. The inscriptions and many mosques and Muslim shrines in this Hindu holy city and its vicinity bear witness to the long history of harmonious co-existence between Hindus and Muslims. This paper explores the Muslim culture of Somnath by studying its major mosques. Through an analytic exploration of the typology of the mosques of Saurashtra, the paper demonstrates that while the old centres of power in Gujarat lay outside Saurashtra it is in Somnath and its neighbouring towns that numerous mosques dating from prior to the sultanate of Gujarat still stand. These monuments help illuminate our understanding of early Muslim architecture in Gujarat and its aesthetic evolution from the time of the peaceful maritime settlements to the establishment of the Gujarat Sultanate." }, { "paper": "2161195156", "venue": "164398212", "year": "2012", "title": "stella papadaki oekland byzantine illuminated manuscripts of the book of job a preliminary study of the miniature illustrations its origin and development athens brepols 2009 pp iv 433 plus facsimile pages and 6 foldout tables many black and white and color figures and tables 150 isbn 978 2503532325", "label": [ "2776174103", "104562893", "52119013" ], "author": [ "2477716104" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Stella Papadaki-Oekland, Byzantine Illuminated Manuscripts of the Book of Job: A Preliminary Study of the Miniature Illustrations, Its Origin and Development .

If any readers doubt the influence of borderlands and transnational methodologies on the historical profession, they should explore the September 2011 issue of the Journal of American History. Opening with a historiographical overview by Pekka Hamalainen and Samuel Truett, the issue contains some of the most insightful pieces of scholarship in borderlands and transnational history. Surely, as the special issue's title suggests, such essays signal the shift of borderlands scholarship from \"margins to mainstream.\" Pekka Hamalainen and Brian DeLay have contributed to this shift with their award-winning books. Both Hamalainen's The Comanche Empire and DeLay's War of a Thousand Deserts: Indian Raids and the U.S.-Mexican War break new ground in borderlands, southern, and American Indian history, as well as the histories of American foreign relations, race, and empire. Both focus on the relationships between the peoples, bands, tribes, states, nations, empires, and nation-states within the vast and geographically diverse region of the present-day Texas-Mexico borderlands. Both books situate indigenous peoples such as the Comanches, Kiowas, Apaches, and others as central actors in a larger narrative that destabilizes nation-oriented histories and those rooted in cosmopolitan centers and economic cores. And finally, rather than reading borders and boundaries back into the past, both Hamalainen and DeLay write as if the present-day \"lines in the sand\" were anything but preordained. Hamalainen's The Comanche Empire exhibits a noteworthy breadth and scope. The goal of the book is to tell the story of an unconventional empire that American history has not acknowledged, in part because mainstream historiography has generally interpreted Indians as obstacles to American expansion and doomed to extinction. Hamalainen argues that Comanches created \"an extensive commercial network\" and controlled a vast expanse of \"border markets and long-distance trade\" based on a historically \"dynamic internal [political] development\" (p. 2). Taking advantage of New Spain's weak control of its northern frontier, the more dominant Comanches \"were an interregional power with imperial presence\" (p. 2). Indeed, Hamalainen claims, \"they built an imperial organization that subdued, exploited, marginalized, co-opted, and profoundly transformed near and distant colonial outposts, thereby reversing the conventional imperial trajectory in vast segments of North and Central America\" (p. 3). In short, the Comanche empire crippled Spain and Mexico, and because of that weakness, especially as Americans perceived it, the United States invaded Mexico in 1846. After that invasion, the Comanches maintained functional control of the Texas-Mexico borderlands for another generation, until post-Civil War changes in technology--especially the expansion of the railroad-----enabled massive troop movement and migration across the southern Great Plains. Demography and disease also helped consign Comanches to reservations in the 1870s. This rise in power grew out of the internal political, cultural, environmental, and social characteristics of Comanche bands that were simultaneously fluid yet structured, flexible yet shaped by kinship and gender, and the evolving interplay between Spanish, French, British, and American imperial designs. \u2026" }, { "paper": "189439222", "venue": "112292781", "year": "2012", "title": "beyond reasonable doubt a case for queen anne s revenge", "label": [ "80114427", "53553401", "2779269003", "150007171" ], "author": [ "2695220202", "2601352479" ], "reference": [ "164857039", "230448373", "328496999", "604039263", "611131260", "642882103", "1506443729", "1995377329", "2013546371", "2069908698", "2079230828", "2088018383", "2089277088", "2091834147", "2101800508", "2106389028", "2131294211", "2322189915", "2798203584" ], "abstract": "being able to identify an archaeological site is as fundamental to maritime archaeologists as it is to their terrestrial counterparts identifying a site allows the archaeologist to utilize the historical record better to answer questions about past lives and events often however there are no key artifacts or features that positively identify a site the situation is complicated on high profile sites where the press the public and agencies sponsoring the work want a quick decisive and positive pronouncement while the archaeological profession understands the inherent ambiguity of the archaeological record and wonders how such unambiguous pronouncements can be made on limited data rigorous investigation and testing by an interdisciplinary team such as those focused on the identity of the suspected queen anne s revenge shipwreck however can provide a preponderance of circumstantial evidence that strongly supports the working hypothesis and crosses the threshold of reasonable doubt", "title_raw": "Beyond Reasonable Doubt: A Case for Queen Anne\u2019s Revenge", "abstract_raw": "Being able to identify an archaeological site is as fundamental to maritime archaeologists as it is to their terrestrial counterparts.

Rigorous investigation and testing by an interdisciplinary team, such as those focused on the identity of the suspected Queen Anne\u2019s Revenge shipwreck, however, can provide a preponderance of circumstantial evidence that strongly supports the working hypothesis and crosses the threshold of reasonable doubt." }, { "paper": "2037333112", "venue": "65256140", "year": "2012", "title": "hopkins nicholas sohair mehanna eds nubian encounters the story of the nubian ethnological survey 1961 1964 xxiii 328 pp maps tables illus bibliogr cairo american univ cairo press 2010 22 95 cloth", "label": [ "195244886" ], "author": [ "2608690439" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Hopkins, Nicholas & Sohair Mehanna (eds).

Special attention is paid to narrative paradigms that underlie the Scylla episode and emphasize Odysseus' inability to defeat the monster. I further show that the Cyclops/Scylla contrast serves both as an argument presented to Odysseus' internal Phaeacian audience and an interpretive key for the external audience. in tHe last twenty years, the scholarship on the wanderings of Odysseus\u2014arguably the most famous and beloved section of the Odyssey \u2014has undergone a remarkable shift. Ever since antiquity, an important exegetic tradition, ranging from Heraclitus the Allegorist to Charles Segal, has analyzed the apologoi as a moral or psychological journey, a return to humanity metaphorically shaped as an experience of death and rebirth. 1 By contrast, recent studies implicitly or explicitly influenced by theoretical developments in narratology, pragmatics, and performativity have highlighted the fact that the apologoi are a speech act uttered by the secondary narrator Odysseus to an audience of Phaeacians on whom he depends to escort him home. It is now well established that the apologoi stylistically differ from the main narrative (Goldhill 1991; de Jong 1992; 2001; Beck 2005) and that their emphasis on hospitality" }, { "paper": "2127243662", "venue": "25370165", "year": "2012", "title": "terminal classic maya heterodoxy and shrine vernacularism in the sibun valley belize", "label": [ "195244886", "100134115", "123657996", "179335157", "2779473644", "2779699991", "2778802261", "166957645" ], "author": [ "1514975135" ], "reference": [ "139786746", "579057180", "644984614", "1644932108", "1972286480", "1995995994", "2000477125", "2033773265", "2046685590", "2075903038", "2096623113", "2098039290", "2128603196", "2128606044", "2170001733", "2177338625", "2315787100", "2327816642", "2472113333", "2936620938", "2980852376", "3126349953" ], "abstract": "a monolithic view of classic maya society as dominated by divine rulers who inexplicably ceased to erect monuments with long count dates during the ninth century is examined by reference to new information from terminal classic sites in the sibun valley of belize in this locale and elsewhere the construction of circular one room buildings with striking associated artefacts may be interpreted as signalling social tensions between the orthodoxy of classic maya divine rulers and the more heterodoxic beliefs and practices associated with circular structures built at the end of the classic period the round buildings are contextualized within the diversity of architectural expressions of the sibun valley and also within a peninsula wide network of shrines the chronological placement and character of the sibun shrines is discussed by way of radiocarbon assays obsidian sourced by inaa and raw materials used for groundstone at sites throughout the valley the presence of marine shell and speleothems likely used as architectural adornment found in close association with sibun valley round buildings permits discussion of the manner in which elements of the local effected a translation of heterodoxic tenets into vernacularized shrine architecture", "title_raw": "Terminal Classic Maya Heterodoxy and Shrine Vernacularism in the Sibun Valley, Belize", "abstract_raw": "A monolithic view of Classic Maya society as dominated by divine rulers who inexplicably ceased to erect monuments with long-count dates during the ninth century is examined by reference to new information from Terminal Classic sites in the Sibun Valley of Belize.

He unlatched the door, crept to the bedroom on the first floor, and placed handkerchiefs over the eyes and mouth of the Cashes' five-year-old son, James Bailey Cash Jr., known affectionately to family and friends as \"Skeegie.\" As the intruder had no automobile and with his wife away visiting relatives, he carried Skeegie's limp body across a principal road and through the woods to his house, about fifteen minutes away by foot. Believing the boy to be alive but unconscious, McCall attempted to revive him by artificial respiration and the application of cold water and wet towels, but Skeegie had suffocated within minutes of being stolen. McCall threw the body into a palmetto thicket a half mile behind his house. Vera and Bailey Cash had been married for ten years. Skeegie was their only child, and by all accounts this \"tow-headed,\" blue-eyed boy was happy, healthy, and loved. On the night of his disappearance, Mrs. Cash had bathed her son around nine o'clock, dressed him in white-and-red-striped one-piece pajamas, put him in his crib in the family bedroom, and read \"the funny papers\" to him until he fell asleep around half past nine. She partially closed the bedroom doors, secured the house, and then walked over to see her husband at the general store they owned. She was unaware that McCall, her former tenant, was watching her leave. (1) When Skeegie's parents returned to the house at 10:10 P.M. and found the boy was missing, their white neighbors, who assumed the little boy \"had gone wandering,\" began searching the immediate vicinity. The first ransom note was discovered by 1:00 A.M. It became clear that the Cashes were victims of a \"classic ransom kidnapping,\" defined by sociologist Ernest Kahlar Alix as criminal actions motivated by pecuniary gain, specifically the collection of a ransom payment, and involving the taking of a person against his or her will and secret confinement under duress. Victims were economic commodities to be traded for cash, and there were premiums for keeping them alive. Most states levied harsher or capital punishments if victims were harmed. (2) Hoping their son would be returned to them alive and unhurt, Bailey and Vera Cash used their savings and bank credit to pay the demanded ransom of $10,000 on May 31. (3) However, the manner of Skeegie's disappearance, the evidence of forcible entry into the Cash home, and the ransom notes brought disquieting memories of the kidnap-murder of \"Baby Lindy,\" another blond, blue-eyed boy, in 1932. (4) Indeed, the hunt for Skeegie and his kidnapper constituted the Federal Bureau of Investigation's \"most intensive drive\" since the Lindbergh case and the capture of Bruno Richard Hauptmann; and despite robust southern support for states' rights, in south Florida there was considerable gubernatorial, local law enforcement, and popular support for an extensive and intrusive federal investigation of the Cash case during the summer of 1938. (5) The early 1930s were the high point of ransom kidnappings in the United States, with an estimated two thousand or more abductions occurring between 1930 and 1932 alone, and incidence was perceived to have reached near epidemic proportions by the time Charles A. Lindbergh Jr. disappeared. Such kidnappings provided criminal gangs with a lucrative source of income, as the targets were usually middleclass and wealthy adult citizens (although child victims featured in the majority of ransom kidnappings before 1920). For example, as historian Claire Bond Potter notes, there were twenty-seven \"major kidnappings\" in 1933, which paid ransoms of $40,000 to $100,000. (6) As many scholars have pointed out, the Lindbergh abduction was seen as a symptom of \"a national disease that was destroying the peace and security of [American] citizens and a sign of the ravaged condition of law and order in the nation\"; the crime was a \"cultural and political turning point,\" when \"adult desperation and a sense of loss beyond imagining\" moved out of \"the privatized space of the family\" and into the national psyche. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2274838258", "venue": "162384186", "year": "2013", "title": "folksongs from the beehive state early field recordings of utah and mormon music by elaine thatcher and randy williams review", "label": [ "52119013", "105297191", "2777038452", "2776445246" ], "author": [ "2325804495" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "folksongs from the beehive state early field recordings of utah and mormon music 2008 produced and with liner notes by elaine thatcher and randy williams utah state university press cd 1 on june 30 1958 a group of prominent folklore scholars and enthusiasts gathered for the first meeting of the folklore society of utah featured there was an address titled the material culture of the utah pioneers by austin fife then just completing his tenure on the faculty of occidental college in los angeles in honor of the fiftieth anniversary of that occasion and to draw broader attention to fife s extensive collection of regional folk songs and stories now housed at utah state university the usu press has released folksongs from the beehive state early field recordings of utah and mormon music fife hailed from the mormon country area of southern idaho and northern utah and early in his academic career realized the rich legacy maintained by the purveyors of his own mormon culture accompanied by his wife and able research assistant alta stevens fife he subsequently undertook a seemingly endless series of research expeditions throughout utah and the american west for the purpose of collecting folk songs and stories the fifteen selections on this cd are drawn from the field recordings that they made according to the valuable liner notes compiled by elaine thatcher director of the mountain west center for regional studies at utah state university and her colleague randy williams the fifes documented their activities to the best of their ability p 2 with extensive field notes and transcripts of words and melodies the complete collection of field artifacts and data are housed in the fife folklore collection in utah state university s merrill cazier library special collections and archives of which williams is curator the quality of the field recordings reproduced on this cd is quite satisfactory digital noise reduction techniques have been successful only minimally and rarely does aural debris from the original acetate recordings obscure the voices and words in addition to revealing the textual meaning of the stories and song this recording shows much in terms of vocal characteristics emotive style and even nuance i was struck by the beauty with which these performers told their stories and found it unusual that many sang with what could be characterized as a refined vocal quality this is notable in that most of them were living in remote regions and were not formally trained as a historical artifact alone folksongs from the beehive state is a remarkable collection but the recording becomes especially compelling when we realize that a majority of the people recorded on the disc are elderly theirs are the voices of second and sometimes even firstgeneration utah pioneers we hear the actual voices of those who toiled to carve out for themselves a niche in the west many of whom found personal and religious freedom that had eluded them elsewhere an idiosyncrasy of utah history is that the bulk of its european american story is very recent barely 160 years old the origins of that history were extraordinarily well documented by a literate society that not only valued record keeping but consistently maintained a unique perspective on its own role as founding fathers and mothers as producers thatcher and williams bring this distinctive quality to the fore as they have chosen recordings with texts by community poets and lyricists who were moved and sometimes commissioned to capture their time in poetry and song a case in point is blue mountain a richly descriptive tribute to the history inhabitants and environs of remote monticello utah that was penned in the early twentieth century by the town s poet laureate judge fred w keller he is also the singer on the recording another example is the boys of sanpete county a ballad describing a local tragedy in 1868 in which six boys drowned during a ferry crossing", "title_raw": "Folksongs from the Beehive State: Early Field Recordings of Utah and Mormon Music by Elaine Thatcher and Randy Williams (review)", "abstract_raw": "Folksongs from the Beehive State: Early Field Recordings of Utah and Mormon Music, 2008. Produced and with liner notes by Elaine Thatcher and Randy Williams. Utah State University Press, CD (1).On June 30, 1958, a group of prominent folklore scholars and enthusiasts gathered for the first meeting of the Folklore Society of Utah. Featured there was an address titled \"The Material Culture of the Utah Pioneers\" by Austin Fife-then just completing his tenure on the faculty of Occidental College in Los Angeles. In honor of the fiftieth anniversary of that occasion, and to draw broader attention to Fife's extensive collection of regional folk songs and stories now housed at Utah State University, the USU Press has released Folksongs from the Beehive State: Early Field Recordings of Utah and Mormon Music. Fife hailed from the \"Mormon country\" area of southern Idaho and northern Utah, and early in his academic career realized the rich legacy maintained by the purveyors of his own Mormon culture. Accompanied by his wife and able research assistant Alta Stevens Fife, he subsequently undertook a seemingly endless series of research expeditions throughout Utah and the American West for the purpose of collecting folk songs and stories. The fifteen selections on this CD are drawn from the field recordings that they made. According to the valuable liner notes compiled by Elaine Thatcher, director of the Mountain West Center for Regional Studies at Utah State University, and her colleague Randy Williams, the Fifes documented their activities \"to the best of their ability\" (p. 2) with extensive field notes and transcripts of words and melodies. The complete collection of field artifacts and data are housed in the Fife Folklore collection in Utah State University's Merrill-Cazier Library Special Collections and Archives, of which Williams is curator.The quality of the field recordings reproduced on this CD is quite satisfactory. Digital noise reduction techniques have been successful; only minimally and rarely does aural debris from the original acetate recordings obscure the voices and words. In addition to revealing the textual meaning of the stories and song, this recording shows much in terms of vocal characteristics, emotive style, and even nuance. I was struck by the beauty with which these performers told their stories and found it unusual that many sang with what could be characterized as a \"refined\" vocal quality. This is notable in that most of them were living in remote regions and were not formally trained.As a historical artifact alone, Folksongs from the Beehive State is a remarkable collection. But the recording becomes especially compelling when we realize that a majority of the people recorded on the disc are elderly; theirs are the voices of second-and sometimes even firstgeneration Utah pioneers. We hear the actual voices of those who toiled to carve out for themselves a niche in the West, many of whom found personal and religious freedom that had eluded them elsewhere. An idiosyncrasy of Utah history is that the bulk of its European American story is very recent-barely 160 years old. The origins of that history were extraordinarily well-documented by a literate society that not only valued record-keeping but consistently maintained a unique perspective on its own role as founding fathers and mothers. As producers, Thatcher and Williams bring this distinctive quality to the fore, as they have chosen recordings with texts by community poets and lyricists who were moved-and sometimes commissioned-to capture their time in poetry and song. A case in point is \"Blue Mountain,\" a richly descriptive tribute to the history, inhabitants, and environs of remote Monticello, Utah, that was penned in the early twentieth century by the town's poet laureate, Judge Fred W. Keller; he is also the singer on the recording. Another example is \"The Boys of Sanpete County,\" a ballad describing a local tragedy in 1868 in which six boys drowned during a ferry crossing. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2153936605", "venue": "45659824", "year": "2013", "title": "acosta hughes b lehnus l and stephens s eds brill s companion to callimachus brill s companions in classical studies leiden and boston brill 2011 pp xviii 708 261 9789004156739", "label": [ "74916050", "2780273408" ], "author": [ "2702525372" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Acosta-Hughes B., Lehnus L. and Stephens S.

Historical trends in research objectives, along with assumptions about the entirely mundane character of ground stone tools, have caused much of the variability and many \u201cextra-utilitarian\u201d aspects of these artifacts to be overlooked. This study analyzed grave-associated ground stone from the southern San Francisco Bay Area and employed use-wear analysis (macroscopic and microscopic) and morphological comparisons to investigate potential distinctions in form, manufacturing effort, use, and association over approximately 6000\u00a0years of prehistory. Ground stone morphologies, patterns of use-wear, and the way that ground stone was interred with people changed between the earliest and the latest periods analyzed in this study. During the Late Holocene, ground stone underwent a diversification of form and perhaps purpose. An overtly symbolic dimension associated with mortars and pestles seems to emerge with the addition of highly formalized and expensive flower-pot mortars, very long shaped pestles, and additional embellishments such as shell bead applique and painted designs. Large, costly, highly formalized, and embellished mortars exist alongside smaller, less costly, less formalized milling tools. Archaeological and ethnographic evidence supports the inferred association of certain mortars with feasting and ritual activities. Differences in the representation of some of these forms in male and female graves may reflect changes in the roles of women and men in community ritual and politics." }, { "paper": "2742797348", "venue": "122619383", "year": "2013", "title": "armenian policy of remembrance in the epoch of globalism", "label": [ "195244886", "2776639550", "2777796867" ], "author": [ "34834832" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Armenian policy of remembrance in the epoch of globalism", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "1995735461", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2013", "title": "claus christian w szejnmann and maiken umbach editors heimat region and empire spatial identities under national socialism", "label": [ "2778495208", "6303427", "5616717" ], "author": [ "2336410452" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Claus-Christian W.

Abraham Lincoln's recent electoral victory had broken the South's hold on national politics and seemingly confirmed that northerners, as southern radicals had warned, were intent on changing the country in ways that southerners would not want. Thus, the southern states left the Union in order to preserve the South: its institutions, slavery, and way of life. Through secession, southerners believed they were upholding the ideals of their Revolutionary forefathers, defending the system of government created by the Founders, and protecting their society and cherished rights. Secession was a conservative revolution, a \"counterrevolution,\" a revolution against change. (1) Certainly, this is how Confederate president Jefferson Davis presented the matter. \"Ours is not a revolution,\" he still maintained during the Civil War's waning days; \"our struggle is for inherited rights.\" (2) The eminent Presbyterian divine James Henley Thornwell agreed: \"We are not revolutionists--we are resisting revolution. We are upholding the true doctrines of the Federal Constitution. We are conservative.\" (3) It was the North that had lost its way, had broken the federal compact, had been overrun by fanaticism and abolitionism, and had turned its back on its political and religious traditions. All the South desired was to be left alone. The North had become sick and dangerous, and southerners needed to free themselves before that sickness spread. As one southern essayist wrote in January 1861, the northern states had become a \"cancer,\" and for the health of the South, he urged, \"let us cut it off.\" (4) Despite these avowedly conservative intentions, the requirements and exigencies of war soon forced change on white southerners. Politically, what began as a states' rights confederation was transformed into a centralized nation-state with powers far exceeding those of the U.S. government before 1861. Economically, the agricultural slave states undertook a crash course in industrialization, urbanization, and nationalization. Socially, the pressures of war opened wide cracks in the seemingly solid class hierarchy of the Old South, and slaveholding elites, in the face of unexpected resistance, were forced to make concessions to and even take their cues from nonslaveholders. Slavery itself steadily eroded, and the war that began with Confederate vice president Alexander H. Stephens declaring the institution to be the \"corner-stone\" of southern civilization witnessed the authorization, if not the implementation, of black Confederate soldiers before it was over. (5) In short, the experience of creating a nation and fighting an all-out war for survival produced a series of internal revolutions that transformed southern society into something very different from what slaveholders had seceded to protect. This \"Confederacy as a revolutionary experience\" thesis was most memorably, forcefully, and concisely argued in Emory M. Thomas's classic 1971 book of that title. (6) It remains a dominant theme in Confederate studies and continues to shape the narratives of Civil War monographs and college courses alike. And for good reason: The Civil War was a revolutionary experience, and the South was transformed in ways that few members of the white ruling class anticipated and even fewer desired, even before defeat overtook them and ushered in the most revolutionary change of all--the destruction of slavery. But while the view of secession as a conservative, preservative act was without a doubt the dominant one held by Confederates, it was not universal. Some in the South, from the beginning, saw secession, the formation of the Confederacy, and even the war itself as vehicles for significant social and political change. In their view, the creation of the Confederacy presented a unique moment of opportunity. Inspired by southern independence and encouraged by the unsettled state of southern society, they pushed agendas for change, some of them quite sweeping, before the public eye. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2471899300", "venue": "173880072", "year": "2013", "title": "book reviews george f lau andean expressions art and archaeology of the recuay culture xiv 338pages 70 illustrations 9 colour plates 2 tables 2011 iowa city ia university of iowa press 978 1 58729 974 2 e book 978 1 58729 973 5 paperback 39 95", "label": [ "52119013", "2779650838" ], "author": [ "2685747632" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Book reviews.

Officials saw the legislation as a pragmatic response to a dramatically expanded war, but ordinary Britons were far less tolerant. They argued that the relief acts threatened to undermine a widely shared Protestant British patriotism that defined itself against Catholicism and France. Through an elaborate and well-connected popular print culture, Britons living in distant Atlantic communities, such as Kingston (Jamaica), Glasgow, Dublin, and New York City, publicly engaged in a radical brand of Protestant patriotism that began to question the very legitimacy of their own government. Events culminated in June 1780, with five days of violent, deadly rioting in the nation's capitol. Yet the Gordon Riots represent only the most famous example of this new, more zealous defense of Protestant Whig Britishness. In the British Caribbean and North America, unrelenting fears of French invasions and the perceived incompetence of the government mixed with an increasingly confrontational Protestant political culture to expose the fragile nature of British patriotism. In Scotland, anti-Catholic riots drove the country to near rebellion in early 1779, while in Ireland, Protestants and Catholics took advantage of this political instability to make demands for economic and political independence, culminating in the country's legislative autonomy in 1782. Ultimately, Catholic relief and the American alliance with France fundamentally altered how ordinary Britons viewed their government and, perhaps, laid the foundations for the far more radical political culture of the 1790s." }, { "paper": "2100070104", "venue": "164398212", "year": "2013", "title": "maria r alfoldi edilberto formigli and johannes fried die romische wolfin ein antikes monument sturzt von seinem sockel the lupa romana an antique monument falls from her pedestal sitzungsberichte der wissenschaftlichen gesellschaft an der johann wolfgang goethe universitat frankfurt am main 49 1 stuttgart franz steiner 2011 pp 161 42 black and white figures 4 color figures and 3 maps isbn 9783515098762", "label": [ "52119013", "2780376419" ], "author": [ "2318923329" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Maria R.-Alf\u00f6ldi, Edilberto Formigli, and Johannes Fried, Die r\u00f6mische W\u00f6lfin: Ein antikes Monument st\u00fcrzt von seinem Sockel/The Lupa Romana: An Antique Monument Falls from Her Pedestal .

The visibility of women in the buildings and material culture of the villages is assessed and compared to the evidence gained through interview. Given the acknowledged importance of class as a social structure, analysis and discussion is extended to consider whether it is possible to distinguish women of different classes in the villages. Although largely ignored in many previous historical and ethnographic accounts, it is clear that women have played a key role in these villages, and that they can be detected in the material culture. While the ethnographic evidence and spatial analysis indicate the presence of different classes of women, determining this from the artifactual assemblages alone is very difficult. q ]My story is about ordinary women like myself, whose lives were transformed by events in the late twentieth century.

Yet the way elegy presents the beloved in a position of power over her lover, as Sharon James has observed, \u2018retains standard Roman social and power structures, thus suggesting an inescapable inequity even within a private love affair: rather than sharing goals and desires, lover and beloved are placed in a gendered opposition \u2026 Hence resistant reading by the domina is an anticipated and integral part of the genre\u2019. James's remark is indeed correct for each of the instances in which the domina , or female beloved, speaks directly. When she does so, as James also shows, she speaks at cross-purposes with her lover, following a script that is designed \u2018to destabilize him\u2019 in an attempt to keep his interest. Yet what has not been noticed is that when the beloved is instead male, the situation is quite different. Tibullus' Marathus in poem 1.8, our sole example of a male elegiac beloved-turned-speaker, is the exception that proves the fundamental rule of gender inequity. Marathus, that is, when given the opportunity to speak, does in fact share the aims of a male lover, albeit in pursuit of his own puella . When the gendered opposition so integral to elegy is erased, the beloved no longer protests against the strictures of the genre; when both are male, lover and beloved alike are entitled to speak as elegiac lovers." }, { "paper": "2099546172", "venue": "162384186", "year": "2013", "title": "give my poor heart ease voices of the mississippi blues by william ferris review", "label": [ "139015958", "179454799" ], "author": [ "2107373526" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "give my poor heart ease voices of the mississippi blues by william ferris chapel hill university of north carolina press 2009 photographs bibliography discography index cd of original music dvd of original film william ferris s latest book is a beautiful combination of multimedia that is comprised not simply of three hundred plus pages of text but also of companion audio and video discs cd and dvd for the novice blues or black folk art fan looking for an overview of the history of black cultural forms or an explanation of the main features of these arts this may not be the place to begin give my poor heart ease is neither primarily a history nor an analysis of blues culture instead it is an ethnography that presents the primary sources of a vanishing culture as such ferris has provided a tremendously important resource for future researchers numerous popular and academic books provide broad overviews of blues histories not to mention works that cover particular periods autobiographies or biographies of artists likewise the analysis of the form has been covered repeatedly since at least as early as paul oliver s work and of course there is ferris s own blues from the delta published in 1978 anchor press doubleday give my poor heart ease doesn t present one main story line consequently readers can dive into it anywhere from start to finish as the work contains many narratives blues aficionados and scholars will appreciate ferris s geographical arrangement and they ll recognize the familiar movement from rural roots through small towns to urban offshoots in the first two major sections the third section looking back contains interviews with two giants of electrified late twentieth century blues music willie dixon and b b king the final section contrasts sacred and secular cultures with transcriptions of a rural church service and a small town house party ferris s helpful introduction head notes and epilogue provide the circumstances for each interview facts about the subjects and analysis of the cultural material the readability of some of the longer interviews is hampered by the omission of the interviewer s questions these can be inferred from context but their absence can make the primary voice seem meandering especially when the interviewee is clearly responding to a question that takes him or her in a new direction perhaps ferris simply doesn t have records of the questions and this problem doesn t detract from the importance of these voices if only there were more film and audio recordings of them when speaking at the corinne sternheimer greenfield lecture at arkansas state university in 2011 ferris indicated that his chief regret with his fieldwork in this time period is having been too stingy with the tape and film the technical limitations and expense of the media and technology available to him in the late 1960s and 1970s made it impossible to record everything he now wishes he had preserved these two caveats are mere quibbles in the face of the overall power of this work ferris gives us a remarkable record of african american cultural expression as well as multiple forms of storytelling and song the book presents several different thematic tensions including sacred vs secular black vs white male vs female and rural vs urban much attention for example is paid to the blues and gospel music divide by the speakers in the book and that the two worlds shouldn t mix is expressed repeatedly by both blues player and churchgoer but perhaps most succinctly by rev", "title_raw": "Give My Poor Heart Ease: Voices of the Mississippi Blues by William Ferris (review)", "abstract_raw": "Give My Poor Heart Ease: Voices of the Mississippi Blues. By William Ferris. (Chapel Hill: University of North Carolina Press, 2009. Photographs, Bibliography, Discography, Index, CD of original music, DVD of original film.)William Ferris's latest book is a beautiful combination of multimedia that is comprised not simply of three hundred plus pages of text, but also of companion audio and video discs (CD and DVD). For the novice blues or black folk art fan looking for an overview of the history of black cultural forms or an explanation of the main features of these arts, this may not be the place to begin. Give My Poor Heart Ease is neither primarily a history nor an analysis of blues culture. Instead it is an ethnography that presents the primary sources of a vanishing culture. As such, Ferris has provided a tremendously important resource for future researchers. Numerous popular and academic books provide broad overviews of blues histories, not to mention works that cover particular periods, autobiographies, or biographies of artists. Likewise, the analysis of the form has been covered repeatedly since at least as early as Paul Oliver's work, and, of course, there is Ferris's own Blues from the Delta, published in 1978 (Anchor Press/Doubleday).Give My Poor Heart Ease doesn't present one main story line. Consequently, readers can dive into it anywhere from start to finish as the work contains many narratives. Blues aficionados and scholars will appreciate Ferris's geographical arrangement, and they'll recognize the familiar movement from rural roots through small towns to urban offshoots in the first two major sections. The third section, \"Looking Back,\" contains interviews with two giants of electrified, late twentieth-century blues music, Willie Dixon and B.B. King. The final section contrasts sacred and secular cultures with transcriptions of a rural church service and a small-town house party. Ferris's helpful introduction, head notes, and epilogue provide the circumstances for each interview, facts about the subjects, and analysis of the cultural material.The readability of some of the longer interviews is hampered by the omission of the interviewer's questions. These can be inferred from context, but their absence can make the primary voice seem meandering, especially when the interviewee is clearly responding to a question that takes him or her in a new direction. Perhaps Ferris simply doesn't have records of the questions, and this problem doesn't detract from the importance of these voices. If only there were more film and audio recordings of them. When speaking at the Corinne Sternheimer Greenfield Lecture at Arkansas State University in 2011, Ferris indicated that his chief regret with his fieldwork in this time period is having been too stingy with the tape and film. The technical limitations and expense of the media and technology available to him in the late 1960s and 1970s made it impossible to record everything he now wishes he had preserved.These two caveats are mere quibbles in the face of the overall power of this work. Ferris gives us a remarkable record of African American cultural expression. As well as multiple forms of storytelling and song, the book presents several different thematic tensions, including sacred vs. secular, black vs. white, male vs. female, and rural vs. urban. Much attention, for example, is paid to the blues and gospel music divide by the speakers in the book, and that the two worlds shouldn't mix is expressed repeatedly by both blues player and churchgoer, but perhaps most succinctly by Rev. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2484283919", "venue": "77777823", "year": "2013", "title": "chinese mexicans transpacific migration and the search for a homeland 1910 1960 by julia maria schiavone camacho chapel hill the university of north carolina press 2012 pp xvi 248 acknowledgments notes bibliography index illustrations maps tables 39 95 cloth", "label": [ "2779446402", "52119013" ], "author": [ "2647252480" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Chinese Mexicans: Transpacific Migration and the Search for a Homeland, 1910-1960.

Quotations of Aristophanes are from N. G. Wilson, Aristophanis Fabulae (Oxford 2007); for Sophocles, I have used H. Lloyd-Jones and N. G. Wilson, Sophoclis Fabulae (Oxford 1990). All translations are my own. 2 See A. H. Sommerstein, The Comedies of Aristophanes: Vol. 11, Wealth (Warminster 2001) 5\u20138 on earlier treatments of Wealth. He traces two strands in depictions of Wealth before 388: \u201cWealth-the-blind,\u201d a dispenser of curses about whom authors complained; and \u201cWealth the cornucopia-holding son of Demeter,\u201d best known from cult, and the figure upon which the Titans who form the chorus of Cratinus\u2019 Ploutoi are loosely based. Known comedies titled Wealth(s) that preceded the Wealth of 388 include Epicharmus, Elpis or Ploutos (PCG frr. 31\u201334); Cratinus, Ploutoi (PCG frr. 171\u2013177); Aristophanes, Ploutos (of 408, PCG frr. 458\u2013459); Archippus, Ploutos (PCG frr. 37\u201340). A Ploutos attested for Nicostratus (PCG fr. 23) postdates the extant Wealth. These fragments give no indication of the healing of a blind Wealth, nor do they even suggest whether Wealth was a central character. See also P.

By analyzing how Comanches came to control vast stretches of the southern plains, The Comanche Empire challenges our assumptions about how Native polities and imperial powers (and groups like the Comanches that Hamalainen argues were both) thought about territorial claims and how they employed more nuanced spatial strategies to assert their authority, extend their cultural influence, and control trade and resources." }, { "paper": "2037219255", "venue": "137773608", "year": "2013", "title": "be prepared for the big genome leak", "label": [ "53553401" ], "author": [ "2119296823" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "it is only a matter of time until idealism sees the release of confidential genetic data on study participants says steven e brenner", "title_raw": "Be prepared for the big genome leak", "abstract_raw": "It is only a matter of time until idealism sees the release of confidential genetic data on study participants, says Steven E.

Building upon recent historiographical developments, it challenges the hitherto dominant view that post-Westphalian politics was not only secu- larised, but also characterised by its pragmatism and opportunism between the age of religious warfare and the revolutionary period. Its twelve chapters offer an excellent comparative approach to the international politics of the period and reveal the importance of political, economic and religious ideologies in the decision-making process of its rulers.The first three chapters discuss the partisan ideologies of the Whigs and Tories in England, the former being primarily concerned with the securing of a continental balance of powers, whilst the latter focused on Britain and the Atlantic. All three show in their own way how partisanship shaped England's foreign policy under the later Stuarts and Hanoverians, either by looking at ancient (93-130) or recent (55-92) historical models, or even contemporary anti-models. Here, Steve Pincus's study of Molesworth's Account of Denmark (1693) demonstrates how English fears to wards France did not arise so much from a rejection of Catholicism than from the spread of absolutism which, in Denmark and Sweden, was proving compatible with the Protestant faith (29-54). Similarly, David Onnekink revisits the Dutch annus horribilis (1672) through the conflicting ideologies of the Loevesteiners and the Orangists, thereby debunking the traditionally realist approach to Dutch domestic politics (131-144). It shows instead that the Netherlands were perceived as a threat to both English and French interests, who blamed the Loevestein republican regime and domestic politics for the Dutch commercial hegemony.Economic ideologies also transpire here as a pillar of foreign policy. Ana Crespo Solana contextualises the transformations of the Spanish empire in light of its contested commercial monopoly with the Americas, and shows how the reforms of the Spanish economic model prepared the dynastic transition from Habsburg to Bourbon in the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries (215-242). Gijs Rommelse emphasises the importance of a Dutch raison d'Etat during the Anglo-Dutch wars and ascribes the decline of the Republic's trade to English and French mercantilism (243-266).

By John McCracken. Woodbridge, UK: James Currey, 2012. Pp. xviii, 485; maps, photographs, bibliography, index, glossary. $99.00/\u00a360.John McCracken is one of the masters of Africanist historiography, and this awe-inspiring book represents the summation of a life devoted to the study of Malawi's colonial past. The author of Politics and Christianity in Malawi, 1875-1940 (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1977)-a classic that still merits re-reading as a pioneering analysis of the politics and socioeconomic consequences of African conversion-and of countless influential articles on, inter alia, the histories of Malawian colonial agriculture, conservationism, and policing, McCracken has now delivered his long-awaited magnum opus.Written with McCracken's trademark lucidity and attention to detail, A History of Malawi is explicitly modeled on A Modern History of Tanganyika (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1979), whose author, John Iliffe, was McCracken's contemporary in Cambridge in the late 1950s, and later, colleague in the heyday of the history department of the University of Dar es Salaam. At a time in which global history is all the rage, the unashamedly national framework of A History of Malawi and its understated theoretical ambitions may raise some eyebrows. A close reading of the book, however, shows that McCracken successfully avoids the pitfalls of both nationalist history (\"too narrowly\" focused on \"nation-building\" movements and institutions [p. 3]) and of its \"once fashionable 'underdevelopment' alternative\" (which \"oversimplifies the impact of capitalism\" in Malawi and other imperial peripheries [p. 4]). Rather, what McCracken's approach foregrounds is the dynamic interplay between imperial action and African agency in the shaping of the modem history of a country where widespread economic deprivation and grassroots resourcefulness were-and are-inextricably entwined with one another.Following in the footsteps of his one-time mentor, Terence Ranger, McCracken's understanding of African agency is sufficiently subtle and ecumenical as to make room for much more than overt political resistance to the colonial order. Thus, although religiousand nationalist-inspired revolts occupy a prominent place in the narrative (McCracken devotes one chapter to the Chilembwe Rising and as many as four to African politics between 1943 and 1964, the year of independence), central themes running through many of the book's sixteen substantive chapters also include: the inculturation of Christianity-a process that began earlier and had probably more profound effects in Malawi than elsewhere in British-controlled Central Africa; the experiences of Malawian labor migrants-whom McCracken rightly refuses to cast in the role of powerless victims shorn of ambitions and freedom of action; and the odds-defying emergence of independent African cash-crop producers in a politico-economic context skewed in favor of the interests of a small group of large-scale European planters owning nearly half of the best agricultural land in the southern part of the colony and drawing on a captive tenant labor force. \u2026" }, { "paper": "1971561047", "venue": "52423121", "year": "2013", "title": "shattering empires the clash and collapse of the ottoman and russian empires 1908 1918 by michael a reynolds review", "label": [ "74916050", "195244886" ], "author": [ "2559095588" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Shattering Empires: The Clash and Collapse of the Ottoman and Russian Empires, 1908\u20131918 by Michael A.

The conclusion explores the widespread temple \u201crenovations\u201d by the devout Nakarattar (Nattukottai Chettiar) community in the early twentieth century, and the consequent dismay of colonial archaeologists at the perceived destruction of South India\u2019s monumental heritage, in order to reassess the lives and meanings of Tamil sacred sites.\r\n\r\nKeywords: South India, Tamil, Architecture, Temple, Conservation, Renovation, Chola, Nayaka, Nattukottai Chettiar" }, { "paper": "2048678191", "venue": "165709033", "year": "2013", "title": "identifying mechanisms behind middle paleolithic and middle stone age cultural trajectories", "label": [ "2779117820", "2776258062", "2781290976" ], "author": [ "2601895060" ], "reference": [ "169096441", "243145036", "479701171", "566920042", "626492754", "809551758", "1498021861", "1531146838", "1544024454", "1604244153", "1630206603", "1657865724", "1659958671", "1679672709", "1866187843", "1964926756", "1968456419", "1971289217", "1972539943", "1973502955", "1974181653", "1975141628", "1975560501", "1979543252", "1979573175", "1979643203", "1984111514", "1984505309", "1984807806", "1984909515", "1985216875", "1985419731", "1986268750", "1986709147", "1986713334", "1990376608", "1990568722", "1993805983", "1994263888", "1994321980", "1994573854", "1999798677", "2000541088", "2002972888", "2003365123", "2004510715", "2005405996", "2006433999", "2007049610", "2007853015", "2009028979", "2011303397", "2015237218", "2015345446", "2015516678", "2016470677", "2017384662", "2021886503", "2023352628", "2024141761", "2024501228", "2025726020", "2025924576", "2027815367", "2029466012", "2029753616", "2030484124", "2033751965", "2036584892", "2038686775", "2043840059", "2044832580", "2047369654", "2047706334", "2049696674", "2053190053", "2053376630", "2056466252", "2056604149", "2056868695", "2059111103", "2059809835", "2060716839", "2060886431", "2061277109", "2061516277", "2062056129", "2066524166", "2068211709", "2068587616", "2069729948", "2070885298", "2071568073", "2072651226", "2076039248", "2079110470", "2081638676", "2082376648", "2083989490", "2084859898", "2085876742", "2085904885", "2089626244", "2091159142", "2091259184", "2092415817", "2101778559", "2102434916", "2102892476", "2104835438", "2105607338", "2105869280", "2107195909", "2110761842", "2117029825", "2118436877", "2119752408", "2124362779", "2125524179", "2125948932", "2127150322", "2128506197", "2129427301", "2130307024", "2130799876", "2132462391", "2134696918", "2135377516", "2136017883", "2141637972", "2143826758", "2147027519", "2149212390", "2151424167", "2154839528", "2155815215", "2157084423", "2160336621", "2161411308", "2162396622", "2163121725", "2164738643", "2166765524", "2167074092", "2175713244", "2274815048", "2285261182", "2317395794", "2323589573", "2326396474", "2330349018", "2340314855", "2508592931", "2527760339", "2552474710", "2594637941" ], "abstract": "a critical analysis of the debate that has surrounded the emergence of modern behavior during the last two decades and new ways to study material culture and human environment relationships allow us to design a novel approach with which we can understand the mechanisms that have led human populations to develop the variety of cultures that we recognize today we propose a methodological framework that moves away from narrative explanations for the origin of behavioral modernity and instead focuses on the interplay between cultural adaptation and environmental change we argue that by applying this approach to the many different instances of cultural change as well as stasis that characterized the last 300 kyr of human societies we may identify the mechanisms that have led us to become what we are and if any the underlying trends that guided this process", "title_raw": "Identifying Mechanisms behind Middle Paleolithic and Middle Stone Age Cultural Trajectories", "abstract_raw": "A critical analysis of the debate that has surrounded the emergence of \u201cmodern behavior\u201d during the last two decades and new ways to study material culture and human-environment relationships allow us to design a novel approach with which we can understand the mechanisms that have led human populations to develop the variety of cultures that we recognize today.

Nevertheless, it is a timely contribution to what is clearly becoming an inter- esting field of enquiry, and one that has been pioneered by scholars of the Tudor age. After decades of neglect early modern diplomacy has begun to garner renewed interest, albeit from the perspective of cultural rather than political history, and it is in this spirit that this volume has been produced. The editors explicitly seek to avoid political and military history in favour of what they call 'the textured background to the early modern embassy' (p. 7), and they are interested in the 'backdrop' to formal diplomatic activities, and in a range of activities relating to information gathering, cultural exchange, and the material world. Their goal is to understand how these practices shaped 'the events and milieux in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries' (p. 2). The results seem to fall into three categories.One group of essays investigate a practice that was intimately associated with diplo- macy: intelligence gathering. In their analyses of the circulation of information in Elizabethan England, for example, Jason Powell, Robyn Adams and Stephen Alford con- centrate on the kinds of shadowy characters who were involved in pseudo-diplomatic activity. They appreciate that the Elizabethan state was dependent on semi-private networks of patronage and employment, and they demonstrate that many of the characters who were involved in gathering and circulating intelligence occupied ill-defined roles. Some were independent adventurers, some were politically committed, and some were financially rewarded. Some of them were attached to embassies, some of them used intelligence as a means of cementing their positions within patronage networks, and some of them secured promotion and preferment. Adams's study of William Herle, for example, reveals someone who occupied a 'grey area' by combining the roles of 'diplomat, agent, intelligencer and spy' (p. 64), and who became the point of contact between Lord Burghley and the Earl of Leicester, and the 'hub of information exchange' (p. 71). Alford, meanwhile, uses an exploration of such practices to argue that contemporaries did not draw clear distinctions between domestic and foreign intelligence, or between the gathering and assessment of intelligence and the process of policy-making.A second group of essays deal with the processes and practices involved in letter- writing. As Mark Netzloff usefully reminds us, early modern diplomacy was as much about the epistolary arts as it was about the craft of state, and a series of contributions relate to the nature and role of letter-writing in a diplomatic context. James Daybell explores the role of women in the circulation of news, in court diplomacy and in Catholic communication networks, while Netzloff examines the 'everyday matter ' of ambassadorial life in the household of Sir Henry Wotton, and 'the material practices and social dynamics of letter- writing' (p. 156). Alan Stewart offers a particularly intriguing discussion of the 'materiality' of diplomatic correspondence, and his study of Francis Bacon's 'bi-literal' cipher empha- sises the importance that was placed not just on rhetorical and textual skills but also on careful handwriting. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2074066814", "venue": "45659824", "year": "2013", "title": "murray w m the age of the titans the rise and fall of the great hellenistic navies oxford and new york oxford university press 2012 pp xxviii 356 illus 30 9780195388640", "label": [ "195244886" ], "author": [ "315774856" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Murray W.M.

as the period where new science and new technologies achieved their distinctive modern influence; as an event in the history of media and mediation; as the first modern period to embrace skeptical critique as a settled intellectual stance; as the time when the modern public sphere emerged to challenge political absolutism; as the first epoch to grasp its own historicity and undertake a \"history of the present.\" In The Enlightenment: A Genealogy (Chicago, 2010), a short, lucid, and engaging book, Dan Edelstein offers an alternative account, one that pivots on the power of an influential narrative of Enlightenment. Against the recent tendency to understand Enlightenment as plural in its variety, pan-European in its origin, and as a response to the wars of religion, Edelstein's book offers an Enlightenment that is singular, secular, and made in Paris. From its origin in France, the Enlightenment then undergoes diffusion and adaptation by the many countries that accepted French hegemony and recognized Paris as the cultural capital of Europe.There are several different ways Edelstein makes this account plausible. First, for Edelstein, the Enlightenment is a narrative about the enlightenment of society as a new historical fact. The narrative depends upon the development of \"a new idea of society\" and an interpretation of \"society as becoming enlightened\" (22, 23). The simplicity of this thesis can make it difficult to grasp. The narrative offers a way to understand this homogeneous, substantive, civil society as the new subject of history. Second, Edelstein does not attribute this idea to one or another of the philosophes. Instead, the idea of civil society as the subject of history that had now arrived at a state of steady improvement was catalyzed by a debate within the French academy, which started in 1687, between \"the Moderns\" and \"the Ancients.\" The Moderns argued that both the contemporary literature of the \"Grand siecle\" of Louis XIV and the \"New Science\" of the modern epoch were superior to the literature and science of classical Greece and Rome. In response, the Ancients acknowledged modern scientific achievement but insisted upon valuing and translating into the contemporary period the science and the literature of the classical period as it had been made available by the humanistic scholarship of the previous two centuries. Edelstein is at his most cogent in describing how the dialectical exchange between these two interrelated positions became the common sense of the French Enlightenment and helped to forge a new self-consciousness about modernity as distinct from every previous period. Finally, against the cliche notion that the Enlightenment is most centrally about contesting all forms of knowledge and authority, Edelstein shows how the narrative of enlightenment first developed by academicians like the Abbe Jean-Baptiste Dubos (the real hero of this book) allowed later French philosophes to forge productive alliances with institutions like the university, the absolutist state, and even the official agencies of censorship.This book offers a valuable critical revision of Enlightenment. It helps us to understand one of the oft-remarked features of the period called the Enlightenment: unlike other period designators-like Medieval, Renaissance, or even Romantic-the Enlightenment was a self-designation. By emphasizing that Enlightenment resulted from a self-conscious act of historical narrative, Edelstein makes an appealing, though flawed, case for the singularity of Enlightenment, against the partisans of multiple, distinct but analogous Enlightenments. The narrative of Enlightenment might circulate and travel and be adapted throughout Europe and America, but, according to Edelstein, it started in one place and time: during the academic French debate between the Ancients and Moderns. \u2026" }, { "paper": "1516738882", "venue": "145330833", "year": "2013", "title": "signs streets and storefronts a history of architecture and graphics along america s commercial corridors by martin treu review", "label": [ "169085036", "52119013" ], "author": [ "1915196457" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Signs, Streets, and Storefronts: A History of Architecture and Graphics Along America's Commercial Corridors by Martin Treu (review)", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "1978887694", "venue": "164398212", "year": "2013", "title": "michael e moore a sacred kingdom bishops and the rise of frankish kingship 300 850 studies in medieval and early modern canon law 8 washington dc catholic university of america press 2011 pp xii 434 69 95 isbn 9780813218779", "label": [ "195244886" ], "author": [ "2158190958" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Michael E.

The reasons for this are many, the most important being the limits of the conventional sources, the difficulties for researchers of gaining access to secluded palace interiors, and perhaps above all, the assumption that royal women were of little importance to the power of the rulers they served.1This article examines the circumstances, roles, and experiences of royal concubines in Ngaoundere in today's northern Cameroon in the period ca. 1900-1960. The study is informed by first-hand accounts from former royal concubines.2 Concubinage was a largescale phenomenon in Ngaoundere and the laamiido's3 palace probably contained one of the largest harems in Islamic West-Africa measured by the number of women it contained at the turn of the twentieth century. Approximately 300 concubines still resided inside the palace walls as recently as the mid-1950s.4 The institution of royal concubinage went into decline towards the end of the colonial period, but it has endured until this day.5 The fact that the royal harem system in Ngaoundere remained in operation throughout and beyond the colonial period has made it possible to collect first-hand accounts on the Ngaoundere palace harem. How did women become royal concubines in twentieth-century Ngaoundere? What was their legal and social position, and which activities did they carry out? And did royal concubines, as is often believed, live a life of ease and privilege?The article is based on interviews with former concubines who had spent parts of their lives in the secluded palace interior, and is supplemented with written sources from colonial and missionary archives. The interviews were conducted in Ngaoundere in three phases between 1996 and 2002 .6 The majority of the twenty -five former concubines interviewed had lived in the Ngaoundere palace at various times during the reigns of laamiido Mohammadou Abbo (1929-1939 and 1948-1957), laamiido Aliou (1939-1948) and laamiido Baba Djelani (1957-1961). Having obtained the permission of the laamiido at the time, Issa Malgari Yaya (1973-1997), I began by doing interviews inside the palace with the concubines of his predecessors, who had been allowed to live at the palace during their old age. However, realizing that the women did not talk freely within the confines of the palace, I gradually came to concentrate on former royal concubines who lived on the outside, in the quarters surrounding the palace. These women were all members of the palace community, still spending much of their time at court partaking in the domestic activities of the palace household. This study is also informed by numerous conversations with other members of the palace community.The harem is usually associated with Muslim society, but the practice of secluding women had its precursor in the pre-Islamic civilizations of the Middle East.7 In Subsanaran Africa, large harems existed in the households of powerful rulers in many different societies, both Islamic and non-Islamic.8 Melman has defined \"harem system\" as \"the combination of the seclusion of females with polygamy and concubinage.\"9 I suggest broadening this definition by including non-concubine female slaves, as these normally constituted another important group in large harems.The Muslim harem, typically conceived of as a place of sexual license in Western popular imagination, is undoubtedly a misinterpreted institution.10 The word \"harem\" is the Turkish form of the Arabic harim, derived from the root h-r-m, to make forbidden, sacrosanct.11 A harem is by definition a sanctuary or a sacred precinct, it is a space to which general access is forbidden or controlled.12 In its secular meaning, \"harem\" refers to the private quarters of the family, that is, the physical area of the house allocated to the women of the family. The term \"harem\" was not in use in Ngaoundere, the local denomination being lau kira, literally \"the heart of the compound. \u2026" }, { "paper": "262887625", "venue": "162384186", "year": "2013", "title": "ramblin on my mind new perspectives on the blues by david evans review", "label": [ "2980749", "52119013", "139015958", "105297191" ], "author": [ "2105375622" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "ramblin on my mind new perspectives on the blues ed david evans urbana university of illinois press 2008 pp 430 contributors illustrations index willie dixon a famed blues songwriter known for his chicago blues classics including hoochie coochie man for muddy waters spoonful for howlin wolf and my babe for little walter once said all american music came from the blues dixon s statement contains a bit of exaggeration but there still is no doubt that the blues occupies a significant part of the history of american music and culture david evans the editor of ramblin on my mind new perspective on the blues mentions in the introduction previous writers had almost universally viewed it the blues as either simply a type of folk music or more or less anonymous and unchanging or a root form of jazz worthy of a chapter or two at the beginning of any study of that genre p 1 evans continues what was lacking except among musicians themselves and their immediate audiences was a sense of blues as a distinct type of music with its own personalities stylistic variety and history of musical development p 1 although evans uses the past tense for the above statement the same idea persists today in general or even worse while today s blues music is more popular and widespread than any time in its history evans writes that we hardly hear of the blues in academic disciplines even though the music is prevalent internationally in blues magazines and international club concert and festival circuits for instance in classrooms on music of the americas how much time do instructors spend on the blues do they talk about anything other than a 12 bar aab form with a boogie woogie bass pattern or some major artists furthermore in many academic conferences on american music and ethnomusicology even in national meetings with hundreds of presentations how often do we see papers on the blues in my recent experience there was just one presentation and it was made by a japanese scholar that one was mine in addition for this book review i took a look at ten volumes of journals on american music that i randomly grabbed from my bookshelf to see how many articles on the blues were included i found only one ramblin on my mind is an anthology of ten excellent studies on the blues that fills an important gap in scholarship the book proves that blues music offers scholars a wealth of issues to explore and that blues scholarship is a dynamic area for research the collection of essays offers insight into the blues in an interdisciplinary approach that explores previously older historical aspects of blues music reinterprets familiar material conducts broader surveys and examines blues performances each study leads to a new appreciation of this musical tradition and shows new possibilities for exploration in various fields music theory and history legal practice and history anthropology folklore fieldwork literary study and even kinesthetic study the book consists of essays that include a thorough study of the influence of the west african tonal system and its amalgamation with the european counterpart in skip james s recordings gerhard kubik pre blues compositions in southern vaudeville around the turn of the twentieth century lynn abbott and dough seroff w", "title_raw": "Ramblin' on My Mind: New Perspectives on the Blues by David Evans (review)", "abstract_raw": "Ramblin' on My Mind: New Perspectives on the Blues. Ed. David Evans. (Urbana: University of Illinois Press, 2008. Pp. 430, contributors, illustrations, index.)Willie Dixon, a famed blues songwriter known for his Chicago blues classics including \"Hoochie Coochie Man\" for Muddy Waters, \"Spoonful\" for Howlin' Wolf, and \"My Babe\" for Little Walter, once said: \"All American music came from the blues.\" Dixon's statement contains a bit of exaggeration, but there still is no doubt that the blues occupies a significant part of the history of American music and culture. David Evans, the editor of Ramblin' on My Mind: New Perspective on the Blues, mentions in the introduction: \"Previous writers had almost universally viewed it [the blues] as either simply a type of folk music, or more or less anonymous and unchanging, or a 'root' form of jazz, worthy of a chapter or two at the beginning of any study of that genre\" (p. 1). Evans continues: \"What was lacking, except among musicians themselves and their immediate audiences, was a sense of blues as a distinct type of music with its own personalities, stylistic variety, and history of musical development\" (p. 1).Although Evans uses the past tense for the above statement, the same idea persists today, in general or even worse. While today's blues music is more popular and widespread than any time in its history, Evans writes that we hardly hear of the blues in academic disciplines, even though the music is prevalent internationally in blues magazines and international club, concert, and festival circuits. For instance, in classrooms on music of the Americas, how much time do instructors spend on the blues? Do they talk about anything other than a 12-bar/aab form with a boogie-woogie bass pattern, or some major artists? Furthermore, in many academic conferences on American music and ethnomusicology-even in national meetings with hundreds of presentations-how often do we see papers on the blues? In my recent experience, there was just one presentation, and it was made by a Japanese scholar-that one was mine. In addition, for this book review, I took a look at ten volumes of journals on American music that I randomly grabbed from my bookshelf, to see how many articles on the blues were included; I found only one.Ramblin' on My Mind is an anthology of ten excellent studies on the blues that fills an important gap in scholarship. The book proves that blues music offers scholars a wealth of issues to explore and that blues scholarship is a dynamic area for research. The collection of essays offers insight into the blues in an interdisciplinary approach that explores previously older historical aspects of blues music, reinterprets familiar material, conducts broader surveys, and examines blues performances. Each study leads to a new appreciation of this musical tradition and shows new possibilities for exploration in various fields-music theory and history, legal practice and history, anthropology, folklore, fieldwork, literary study, and even kinesthetic study. The book consists of essays that include a thorough study of the influence of the West African tonal system and its amalgamation with the European counterpart in Skip James's recordings (Gerhard Kubik), pre-blues compositions in Southern vaudeville around the turn of the twentieth century (Lynn Abbott and Dough Seroff), W. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2332514020", "venue": "56601287", "year": "2013", "title": "a commonwealth of the people popular politics and england s long social revolution 1066 1649 by david rollison", "label": [ "2777826127" ], "author": [ "1956304348" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "A Commonwealth of the People: Popular Politics and England\u2019s Long Social Revolution, 1066\u20141649, by David Rollison", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2331604170", "venue": "56601287", "year": "2013", "title": "reconceptualizing the industrial revolution ed jeff horn leonard rosenband and merritt roe smith", "label": [ "52119013", "517468935" ], "author": [ "2154201720" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Reconceptualizing the Industrial Revolution, ed.

Boudreaux and thibodeaux (Bt) jokes are a genre of ethnic jokes told by Cajuns in South louisiana. Bt jokes are similar in style to Newfie (Newfoundlanders) jokes of Canada: both function to poke fun at a stigmatized socioethnic group, the members of which are seen as stupid (Davies 1982). Usually Bt jokes are humorous narratives about the eponymous fictional Cajuns, who are portrayed as ignorant, unsophisticated, and generally incompetent, as in the following example: One day tibodeau told Boudreau that he was going to the trade school to make hisself smart. he came home the first afternoon with a \u2019lil homework. the teacher told them to go to \u2019de dictionary and look up ten new words.

Analysis of such dialect performances can reveal which linguistic features are regarded by speakers as most emblematic of their speech variety, since repeated performances of a dialect may lead to increased stylization or reduction of performance may lead to a limited set of linguistic features that most efficiently indexes the target stereotype (Schilling-estes 1998; Johnstone 1999; Chun 2004). in addition, consideration of the social context in which such performances occur can provide insights into the social value of the language variety in question (macaulay 1987). in an effort to better understand locally salient (socio)linguistic stereotypes tied to Cajun english (Ce), i analyzed performances of six joketellers from lafourche Parish, louisiana, to determine whether commonly cited Ce phonetic features were exaggerated while joketelling. Specifically, i examined two consonantal features: Stopping of interdental fricatives [T] and [D] (rubrecht 1971; Scott 1992; Walton 1994; Dubois and horvath 1998a, 1998b, 2000, 2002; Coyne 2008) Non-aspiration of voiceless stops [p, t, k] (rubrecht 1971; Walton 1994; Dubois and horvath 1998a, 2000, 2002; Coyne 2008) and two vocalic features: \u201cshorter, tenser vowels characteristic of Cajun French\u201d (Walton 1994, 102) Unglided/monophthongal tense vowels [i, e, o, u] (rubrecht 1971; Dubois and horvath 2002; Wroblewski, Strand, and Dubois 2009) results indicate that while both consonantal features were manipulated by Bt joketellers, none of the joketellers produced shorter, tenser, or more monophthongal vowels while telling Bt jokes. this patterning may indicate the greater salience of consonantal Ce features within lafourche Parish.

It demonstrates that the STN's order books are an unreliable gauge of general French demand. It goes further. It argues for a nuanced polycentric understanding of the eighteenth-century Francophone book trade, and outlines a bibliometric digital humanities pathway that might lead us there." }, { "paper": "2321272695", "venue": "56601287", "year": "2013", "title": "remaking the british atlantic the united states and the british empire after american independence by p j marshall", "label": [ "53553401", "501832835", "195244886" ], "author": [ "2165209293" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Remaking the British Atlantic: The United States and the British Empire after American Independence, by P.

The focus is on the changing perceptions of people in the midst of their land loss, an area of study that is generally underexamined in academia. In Lady Selborne, blacks were displaced from an area that was agriculturally fertile, close to the city centre of Pretoria and relocated to infertile Ga-Rankuwa on the outskirts of the city. This resettlement resulted in many of those relocated being prevented from engaging in food production, which was in turn an affront to Sotho-Tswana culture and religion with its emphasis on land as lefa: a bequest that has to feed its inhabitants. This mind-set resulted in forced removals and in turn led blacks to disregard environmental issues. Ga-Rankuwa became degraded with litter, soil erosion and dongas, especially in the 1970s, as people realised that there was no hope of returning to Lady Selborne." }, { "paper": "1969710077", "venue": "65256140", "year": "2013", "title": "kuzmanovic daniella refractions of civil society in turkey xiv 211 pp figs bibliogr basingstoke new york palgrave 2012 55 00 cloth", "label": [ "195244886" ], "author": [ "2046065002" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Kuzmanovic, Daniella.

The seizures were controversial: since they occurred at a time when plundering the vanquished was already considered questionable behaviour, they attracted opposition and needed to be justified. The article identifies the resulting repertoire of attitudes, arguing that this repertoire evolved with changing circumstances and was more varied than hitherto maintained. By situating this repertoire in a larger historical context, the article also reassesses the extent to which attitudes were derivative and innovative. It contends that the disputation as a whole did not amount to a decisive rupture in the treatment of foreign cultural property during wartime, but that it was nevertheless remarkable in two respects: concepts from hitherto unrelated subjects were applied to considerations about cultural property; and the perceived conditions under which cultural property could be legitimately transferred were revised." }, { "paper": "2158002220", "venue": "162384186", "year": "2013", "title": "tales of kentucky ghosts by william lynwood montell review", "label": [ "105297191", "81631423", "2776142151" ], "author": [ "2346775579" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "tales of kentucky ghosts by william lynwood montell lexington ky university press of kentucky 2010 pp 211 introduction index of stories by county tales of kentucky ghosts is in a way the type of ghost story book that folklore presses rarely publish anymore all of the tales are oral ghost narratives collected from ordinary residents of western kentucky in the introduction william lynwood montell professor emeritus of folk studies at western kentucky university says that he began gathering stories for this book in 2007 from individuals and from college and university archives in more than seventy counties across kentucky the transcriptions of these stories are for the most part word by word reproductions of the oral versions although the dialect appears to have been edited in places the stories are organized into ten chapters according to their dominant themes cemetery ghosts return of family members as ghosts haunted houses and public buildings civil war ghosts roadside ghosts and odd phenomena headless ghosts animal ghosts and animal tales ghostly lights and screams strange sounds lights and unexplained events and legends and folktales the length of these stories varies from only two or three sentences to three pages many of the titles of the narratives refer to the motifs that are embedded therein e g young lovers killed and lights in graveyard the collection dates of these tales range from 1936 to 2008 with the exception of ghostly noises and secret tunnels p 203 these are unpolished stories told with the kind of narrative flair that one expects to find in oral ghost tales most of the stories included in this volume feature the types of motifs that are commonly found in oral ghost narratives montell has included stories of sham ghosts such as not a ghost but a rat p 114 stories dealing with ghostlore i e folk beliefs regarding ways to deter ghosts such as a dream or reality p 57 and stories of the return of dead relatives to comfort the living such as loving grandmother returns p 23 stories of college ghosts such as ghost of van meter auditorium p 158 stories of people who spend the night in a haunted house on a bet such as noises in house p 140 only a few tales deal with historically haunted places such as haunted hospitals p 54 which is about one of the most famous historic sites in the united states waverly hills tuberculosis sanitarium tales of kentucky ghosts also contains relatively new versions of an old type of ghost story the legend trip in these stories young people test the validity of ghost legends by visiting haunted places montell includes stories that update this old practice by including information on paranormal investigations that use electronic ghost hunting equipment stories like dark figure in a cemetery p 5 have obviously been influenced by popular television programs such as ghost hunters the only special feature in tales of kentucky ghosts is the index instead of indicating the page numbers where the names of people and places can be found montell s index organizes the titles of his stories according to the counties in which they were collected this type of index is especially useful for folklorists and for non academics who are interested in exploring the types of ghost tales associated with specific parts of the state tales of kentucky ghosts holds a unique place in the folklore oriented collections of oral ghost tales", "title_raw": "Tales of Kentucky Ghosts by William Lynwood Montell (review)", "abstract_raw": "Tales of Kentucky Ghosts.

The stories are organized into ten chapters, according to their dominant themes: \"Cemetery Ghosts\"; \"Return of Family Members as Ghosts; Haunted Houses and Public Buildings\"; \"Civil War Ghosts\"; \"Roadside Ghosts and Odd Phenomena\"; \"Headless Ghosts\"; \"Animal Ghosts and Animal Tales\"; \"Ghostly Lights and Screams\"; \"Strange Sounds, Lights, and Unexplained Events\"; and \"Legends and Folktales.\" The length of these stories varies, from only two or three sentences to three pages. Many of the titles of the narratives refer to the motifs that are embedded therein (e.g., \"Young Lovers Killed\" and \"Lights in Graveyard\"). The collection dates of these tales range from 1936 to 2008. With the exception of \"Ghostly Noises and Secret Tunnels\" (p. 203), these are unpolished stories, told with the kind of narrative flair that one expects to find in oral ghost tales.Most of the stories included in this volume feature the types of motifs that are commonly found in oral ghost narratives. Montell has included stories of \"Sham Ghosts\" such as \"Not a Ghost but a Rat\" (p. 114); stories dealing with ghostlore (i.e., folk beliefs regarding ways to deter ghosts), such as \"A Dream or Reality\" (p. 57); and stories of the return of dead relatives to comfort the living, such as \"Loving Grandmother Returns\" (p. 23); stories of college ghosts, such as \"Ghost of Van Meter Auditorium\" (p. 158); stories of people who spend the night in a haunted house on a bet, such as \"Noises in House\" (p. 140). Only a few tales deal with historically haunted places, such as \"Haunted Hospitals\" (p. 54), which is about one of the most famous historic sites in the United States, Waverly Hills Tuberculosis Sanitarium. Tales of Kentucky Ghosts also contains relatively new versions of an old type of ghost story, the legend trip. In these stories, young people test the validity of ghost legends by visiting haunted places. Montell includes stories that update this old practice by including information on paranormal investigations that use electronic ghost-hunting equipment. Stories like \"Dark Figure in a Cemetery\" (p. 5) have obviously been influenced by popular television programs such as Ghost Hunters.The only special feature in Tales of Kentucky Ghosts is the index. Instead of indicating the page numbers where the names of people and places can be found, Montell's index organizes the titles of his stories according to the counties in which they were collected. This type of index is especially useful for folklorists and for non-academics who are interested in exploring the types of ghost tales associated with specific parts of the state.Tales of Kentucky Ghosts holds a unique place in the folklore-oriented collections of oral ghost tales. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2132271955", "venue": "84742693", "year": "2013", "title": "j ebbeler disciplining christians correction and community in augustine s letters new york oxford oxford university press 2012 pp xii 254 isbn 9780195372564 45 00", "label": [ "111936747" ], "author": [ "2264712057" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "J.

By Richard J. Reid. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2012. Pp. 188. $28.95 paper.In this latest edition to the Approaches to African History series, Richard J. Reid attempts all one would expect of a volume dedicated to the history of African warfare: to explain conflict in Africa over la longue duree; to dispel fallacious myths of African fighters as noble savages and bloodthirsty barbarians; and to contextualize African warfare from antiquity to the present with recourse to themes like environment, economy, and polity. This alone would make Warfare in African History a valuable contribution to a field that is both understudied and undertheorized. Yet Reid goes further than this and proposes a striking thesis: warfare in Africa has, on average, been constructive rather than destructive. This assertion is well supported throughout the book, although the notion that \"giving war a chance\" (p. 181) is necessary in Africa will doubtless strike many as controversial.Starting in antiquity and progressing through the centuries, the book suggests a broad pattern of African states being forged in violence, and a deep, distinctively African history of politicized militants. This close alignment of politics and the militance came to its first peak in the thirteenth century with the appearance of Sunjata's and Yekuno Amlak's insurgent empires of Mali and Ethiopia. The points to retain in these early chapters, however, are that in the long run Africa has not been more violent than anywhere else- a felicitous argument for obvious reasons- and that violence has often been a key component in the creation of novel forms of state organization and social development. This contradicts our contemporary focus on peace, which Reid contends is responsible for an anachronistic attitude toward violence that springs from Western experiences in the twentieth century.The book gathers momentum in the second half, which deals with the seventeenthcentury onward. Here a combination of the increased availability of sources and major political and economic changes in Africa produce chapters that effectively demonstrate how war and politics shaped each other in new ways leading up to what Reid terms the nineteenth-century African military revolution. In particular, the Atlantic slave trade led to such developments as the spread of guns, the economic specialization of soldiers, increased state centralization, and the emergence of warfare as a driver of economic development. This laid the groundwork for the nineteenth-century revolution in African warfare, in which the embryonic developments of earlier centuries were intensified and large professional armies emerged, novel organizational structures developed, firearms came into more extensive and effective use, new cultural identities emerged, and highly centralized, urbanized states developed- Samori Toure's polity being a key example. Finally, Reid suggests colonial conquests were successful precisely because they profited from the developments- particularly the increased availability and capacity of soldiersand effectively hijacked a process of sociopolitical change that was being played out with recourse to violence. The implications of this colonial interruption are that it merely postponed the African military revolution, which, Reid contends, is inexorably unfolding in the postcolonial era, and that many of its outcomes will likely be creative and developmental.The strength of the book lies in its ability to marry a comprehensive overview of African military history with a number of compelling contentions. These are: that war in Africa has often been constructive; that the African military revolution of the nineteenth century was a creative, developmental process that was stalled- but not ended- by the pax colonia, and one that continues to unfold in the postcolonial era; and that African war must be considered in the long-term not as a unique African malignancy but as a struggle for development in an especially harsh environment. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2038232892", "venue": "188415705", "year": "2014", "title": "writing fiction living history kanhaiyalal munshi s historical trilogy", "label": [ "2776997653" ], "author": [ "2312833464" ], "reference": [ "610633544", "620302430", "645214415", "1964728648", "2011868680", "2032427395", "2067562289", "2121393013" ], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Writing Fiction, Living History: Kanhaiyalal Munshi's historical trilogy", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2108773412", "venue": "60563828", "year": "2014", "title": "rosane rocher andludo rocher founders of western indology august wilhelm von schlegel and henry thomas colebrooke in correspondence 1820 1837 abhandlungen fur die kunde des morgenlandes xv 205 pp wiesbaden harrassowitz 2013 isbn978 3 447 06878 9", "label": [ "170001528", "195244886" ], "author": [ "257107869" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Rosane Rocher andLudo Rocher: Founders of Western Indology: August Wilhelm von Schlegel and Henry Thomas Colebrooke in Correspondence 1820\u20131837 .

In the course of the 40-minute drive, I took the opportunity to point out the common misapprehension that Bill Monroe came from the southern mountains. They took in my rant, gazing solemnly out at the low rolling hills of Ohio County. Heading to the stage area, we made our way through the ring of concession stands, where my group was wickedly thrilled to see the official commemorative T-shirt for the event, featuring a (blue) Kentucky moon rising above snow-capped peaks. These inverted Dixie cups might have resembled a stylized representation of the mountains of Telluride but nothing to be found in the Commonwealth-as the graphic designer and the event planners very well knew. In a collision between bluegrass geography and iconography, geog- raphy was the inevitable loser.The excellent articles in this special issue balance the common assumption that country music is exclusively and innately southern, and that the many exceptions to this rubric are unnatural deviations-if not downright deviant. Ron Cohen examines the role of collector Alan Lomax in defining a broad vernacular base for the com- mercial style that would come to be identified as \"country\" and hence, by a popular non sequitur, southern. Patrick Huber brilliantly documents the pervasive presence and influence of New York \"citybilly\" recording artists from 1924 to 1932, effectively the gestation period of the music as an identifiable commercial entity. Clifford Mur- phy offers an entertainingly personal examination of the social context of the State of Maine as a \"perfectly authentic\" site for country music, focusing on the writing and career of Dick Curless and the alternate personas of trucker and cowboy as iden- tities not inextricably linked to the South. Also, Paul Tyler attacks sectarianism head- on in his vehement defense of the midwestern element as key to an understanding of the music.Each of these capable scholars takes issue with Bill Malone's thesis that \"[country music] is a creation and organic reflection of southern working-class culture, chang- ing as that society had changed,\" even given his qualification that it is, as well, \"a dynamic element of American popular culture\" (Malone 2003:48). Their evidence is largely based on the history of the music and musicians themselves-and it is impor- tant that this historical record be kept straight. What really happened does indeed matter.But my memory stubbornly returns to those inverted Dixie-cup mountains. What can we infer, when certain expressive forms are so persistently identified (or mis- identified) with a particular region, a particular set of socio-economic and historical circumstance? Perhaps more to the point, why should certain themes of longing, subversion, obsession, struggle, elation, grotesquery, and heartbreak find expression in trappings often borrowed not from personal southern memory, but from the cos- tume-chest of a collective set of agreements about southernness already well in place by the turn of the twentieth century? Stephen C. Foster (1826-64) was only reas- sembling images and themes already firmly established in parlors and minstrel shows when he captivated mid-century audiences northern and southern alike with his lively and plaintive tunes. Their charm was not their fidelity to lived southern experi- ence, but rather their assemblage of ready-to-hand materials identified with the South to express universal sentiments. The songwriters Jack Yellen and George L. Cobb penned \"Are You From Dixie?,\" the beloved paean to Alabama, Tennessee, and Car- oline, in 1915-straight from the heart of Tin Pan Alley. The slight, cheerful ditty was happily embraced by both Vermont-born country artist Ernest Thompson (1924) and the Blue Sky Boys (1939), along with numerous other versions. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2011690721", "venue": "65256140", "year": "2014", "title": "thiranagama sharika in my mother s house civil war in sri lanka xvi 296 pp map bibliogr philadelphia univ pennsylvania press 2011 39 00 cloth", "label": [ "81631423", "6303427" ], "author": [ "1924248219" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Thiranagama, Sharika.

By Eric R. Schlereth . Philadelphia : University of Pennsylvania Press , 2013. vi + 295 pp. $55.00 cloth.Book Reviews and NotesDeists, skeptics, and freethinkers are making a comeback--at least those who lived and wrote in America between the 1770s and 1840s. After a generation or more of relative neglect, the infidels of the revolutionary and early republic eras are once more in the historical limelight thanks to Amanda Porterfield's Conceived in Doubt and Eric Schlereth's new study of religious contest and political formation in the new nation. Persuaded that the roles of Christianity's opponents \"are largely unaccountable in religious histories that emphasize democratization\" (10; think Nathan Hatch's The Democratization of American Christianity here), Schlereth asserts that deists and the controversies they generated played an essential part in shaping early national religion and its effects on American politics. For that reason, he proposes that the spectrum between belief and disbelief be seen as nothing less than an alternative paradigm for plotting the evolution of American religious history in the early national period.As Schlereth tells the story, when the United States began, it had to sort out how its religious diversity and all its competing claims to religious truth could be made compatible with republican political institutions. In other words, what would be the \"relationship between belief and state power\" (240) in the new nation? Disputes quickly arose in the revolutionary and constitutional periods between deists (broadly defined) and their opponents over the bounds of tolerable religious belief and expression. But soon America began to move beyond toleration and commit itself to religious liberty in the late eighteenth century. As that happened, the arbiter of religious truth shifted from the state to the marketplace of ideas, American public opinion. Controversies over infidelity quickly became situated firmly within the public sphere, as evidenced, for example, by the fury aroused by Thomas Paine's The Age of Reason and by the prominent place of religious attacks within Federalist-Republican political contests. In the early republic, the power of persuasion became preeminent and over the course of the next half-century, opportunities for politicized religious expression multiplied with the rise of political parties, the growth of print media, and the formation of voluntary associations. Within these communication contexts, Americans may have occasionally debated one another's actual religious truth claims but far more often, they wrestled over the likely political and social consequences of one another's beliefs. Hosts of American Christians came to see deism and infidelity as irreconcilable with republican virtue; in their view, citizen deists \"brought subversive religious opinions into public life, thereby threatening the nation's very being\" (108). Conversely, in the eyes of some deists, \"Christianity was incompatible with republicanism, thus Christians were potentially traitors\" (108). \u2026" }, { "paper": "1864626304", "venue": "173880072", "year": "2014", "title": "the global implications of the early surviving rock art of greater southeast asia", "label": [ "53570757", "171878925", "2781300146", "2776381685", "166957645" ], "author": [ "1991073686", "2131687046", "2105012282", "2053626166", "2592166133", "952749206", "2918654527", "2622829094", "2212438452", "2265311502", "2264881435", "2440791753", "2617445276", "2342194103" ], "reference": [ "103659896", "597102219", "949575334", "983893352", "1534516126", "1542351551", "1564803909", "1579114137", "1605117814", "1702387019", "1702981386", "1888331363", "1909743210", "1972223841", "1978341251", "1995327099", "1995894942", "2026563563", "2033723029", "2043840059", "2064279152", "2067815437", "2072612683", "2077521462", "2081225124", "2084451883", "2099153774", "2161787382", "2206200213", "2207890680", "2247138541", "2247981662", "2248272447", "2282332074", "2417310498", "2511134382", "2609333924", "2797890762", "2800148544" ], "abstract": "the rock art of southeast asia has been less thoroughly studied than that of europe or australia and it has generally been considered to be more recent in origin new dating evidence from mainland and island southeast asia however demonstrates that the earliest motifs hand stencils and naturalistic animals are of late pleistocene age and as early as those of europe the similar form of the earliest painted motifs in europe africa and southeast asia suggests that they are the product of a shared underlying behaviour but the difference in context rockshelters indicates that experiences in deep caves cannot have been their inspiration", "title_raw": "The global implications of the early surviving rock art of greater Southeast Asia", "abstract_raw": "The rock art of Southeast Asia has been less thoroughly studied than that of Europe or Australia, and it has generally been considered to be more recent in origin.

Virtually all the letters and the one set of journals are or have been privately held. Thanks to individual owners, the letters and diary entries represented in these four works provide chronicles of regiments either not in print or not well represented among Civil War unit histories. The letters are personal, nearly all to family members. The eldest of the four soldiers, Silas W. Haven, a carpenter whose missives appear in \"A Punishment on the Nation\": An Iowa Soldier Endures the Civil War (Edited by Brian Craig Miller. Civil War in the North. [Kent, Ohio: Kent State University Press, 2012. Pp. xii, 228. $45.00, ISBN 978-160635-144-4.]), served in the Twenty-seventh Iowa. There is no other published compilation of letters from the regiment. Haven's oft-expressed rationale for fighting--he saw action in the Red River campaign and at Mobile--was the abolition of slavery, yet, tellingly, he wrote from Arkansas in 1863: \"I don't think that I want to live down here, especially among the Negroes\" (p. 95). Haven was wounded at Fort DeRussy, Louisiana. He was the most overtly religious of these four letter-writers and continued to work for his local Baptist church after the war. Editor Brian Craig Miller's transitional and terse narrative passages are scattered throughout the text; his annotation is based on an amazing array of primary and secondary sources and likewise is to the point. In From Western Deserts to Carolina Swamps: A Civil War Soldier's Journals and Letters Home (Edited by John P. Wilson. [Albuquerque: University of New Mexico Press, 2012. Pp. xii, 280. $40.00, ISBN 978-0-82635142-5.]), the journals and letters of Lewis F. Roe are combined. Not entirely a Civil War source, the book includes material from Roe's service in the Seventh Infantry before the war and in the early campaigns in New Mexico. He left that unit in 1863, but after a few months at home he enlisted in the Fiftieth Illinois, seeing action with General William T. Sherman from Atlanta to the Carolinas, ending in Savannah. Editor John P. Wilson provides many illustrations, mostly period, and maps both original and previously published, along with excellent explanatory passages. He includes a helpful caveat about relying on personal journals as a primary source. Roe was quite literate--in fact he was a teacher after the conflict--but he offers precious few opinions and no soul-searching. Fortunately, Wilson's notes are particularly informative. Guy C. Taylor's letters to his wife, Sarah, were found in an attic and carefully preserved and annotated by Kevin Alderson and Patsy Alderson, who paid ninety-five dollars for \"an old cardboard box\" and its contents (p. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2328883122", "venue": "22496335", "year": "2014", "title": "introduction context concepts and comparison in southeast asian studies", "label": [ "206440729" ], "author": [ "2180309575", "1982103676" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Introduction: Context, Concepts and Comparison in Southeast Asian Studies", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2321244923", "venue": "114691300", "year": "2014", "title": "the invention of religion in japan by jason \u0101nanda josephson chicago university of chicago press 2012 xiii 408 pp 90 00 cloth 30 00 paper", "label": [ "6303427" ], "author": [ "2659644226" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "The Invention of Religion in Japan .

Philadelphia : University of Pennsylvania Press , 2013. 173 pp. $55.00 cloth.Book Reviews and NotesIn this work, a revision of a dissertation written under the guidance of Elizabeth Clark at Duke, Susanna Drake considers the interplay of categories of race, sex, and gender in the construction of Jews and Judaism by some Greek church fathers from the first through the fifth centuries. Tracing the development of the image of the \"carnal Jew,\" she makes use of the works of theorists of colonialism and gender, including Homi Bhabha, Robert J. C. Young, Judith Butler, and Michel Foucault, highlighting Foucault's claim that sexuality represents a \"dense transfer point for relations of power\" (8).Paul, by dichotomizing spirit and flesh, and by associating porneia with Gentiles, inadvertently provided the categories that proved useful to later Christian writers who theorized Jewish difference. Although Paul never associates carnality with Israel, Drake shows how others retained the antithesis and turned it against Jews (99-100). The author of the Epistle of Barnabas , fifty years later, theorizes difference by fusing exegesis and sexuality, arguing, for example, that the forbidden animals in dietary laws are really symbols of illicit sexual practices. Justin, in Dialogue with Trypho , claims Jews' wrong-headed literalist understanding of scripture springs from their lust, as they misread Jacob's multiple wives, or David's affair with Bathsheba.Drake examines five texts to show how Origen, despite his regard for Jewish scriptural experts he consulted (whom he calls Hebraioi ), used Pauline dichotomies of spirit and flesh to differentiate Christians from contemporary Jews (whom he calls Judaioi ). Jewish carnality and literalism in understanding of Scripture are intertwined in Origen's theory of Jewish alterity, providing a contrast to Christian chastity in practice and spiritual understanding in biblical interpretation. Circumcision provides a graphic case, where Jews foolishly \"mutilate the flesh\" because they interpret the text literally. Using Philo's allegorical interpretation, Origen promotes the Christian \"spiritual\" circumcision, expressed as bodily self-control or asceticism.The third century writers Hippolytus and Origen took the already fraught and sexualized story of Susanna and the Elders and turned it to their own uses, with the chaste matron standing in for the church, which was under attack from lascivious Jewish elders. Gender became more complex by the third century, Drake observes, as an ideal of masculine self-control absorbed aspects of an ideal of feminine passivity. The image of the church as the chaste virgin beset by hyper-masculine Jews corresponded to the idea of pure spiritual exegesis sullied by Jewish literalism. John Chrysostom's Sermons Against the Jews provides the most extreme examples of anti-Jewish stereotypes; Jews as dogs or animals fit for slaughter, Jewish men as malakoi , soft and sexually depraved, their women as prostitutes, and the synagogues as brothels. Reversing Paul's image of the olive tree in Romans 11, Chrysostom argues for permanent Jewish exclusion from grace.Drake is not content to examine rhetoric for its own sake, but asks the crucial question of the relationship between rhetoric and violence. Chrysostom's preaching of Jews as pollutants in the community and worthy objects of violence, for example, provided justification for anti-Jewish legislation of the late fourth century. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2315903035", "venue": "84742693", "year": "2014", "title": "review of rutledge s h 2012 ancient rome as a museum power identity and the culture of collecting oxford studies in ancient culture and representation oxford oxford university press", "label": [ "528414297", "74916050" ], "author": [ "2714008742" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Review of Rutledge, S.

In the surroundings of a sanctuary three burials were discovered with outstanding components. One of them, a gold oak wreath, constitutes the object of investigation. At the outset of the study the excavation site and the data of the discovery of the burials are outlined. Then the wreath is analytically presented in terms of typology, technology, craftsmanship and style. In order to incorporate it in a network of precious artefacts, the other four oak wreaths found in Macedonia and dated to the fourth century bc are described and all of them are compared in the search for similarities or differences. Through this procedure three of them, all from Vergina, emerge as belonging to the same artistic tradition and possibly the same place of production. Then the issue of different contexts is addressed. First of all, the burial in question and the particularities of the other two burials with oak wreaths from Vergina are examined, resulting in the articulation of a pattern. The next step comprises a general sketch of the meaning of wreaths in antiquity both in life and in death, while a subsequent brief consideration of funerary assemblages from the same period and region lays emphasis on the symbolic significance of these head ornaments in their contexts. Attention is also drawn to the plant that the wreath imitates, which is connected to Zeus. In this framework the oldest known oak wreath, that of \u2018Philip II\u2019, is evaluated mainly by examining politics as reflected on coinage. The power of such symbols as applied to other members of the same family is put forward. Another level of approach, the evaluation of the wider territorial context, offers insights into the decision to deposit the burial in the area of an intra muros sanctuary in the old and venerated capital of the kingdom. When the results of the study are combined, a working hypothesis emerges that would consider the burial containing the gold wreath as connected to a member of the ruling family. Research turns to the literary evidence and from this it appears that there is a possibility that the burial is that of the illegitimate murdered son of Alexander the Great. The concluding section refers briefly to episodes in the cultural biography of the wreath. In the meantime, until further and holistic study of the three burials and the construction where they were discovered is carried out, the gold oak wreath forms part of exhibitions on various themes as a representative of the assemblages." }, { "paper": "2318663035", "venue": "203378611", "year": "2014", "title": "lutheran churches in early modern europe edited by andrew spicer aldershot ashgate 2012 xxiv 512 pp 134 95 cloth", "label": [ "27793534", "154775046", "74916050", "205783811", "2776858443" ], "author": [ "2274482076" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "proquest denotes non us ascii text omitted lutheran churches in early modern europe edited by andrew spicer aldershot ashgate 2012 xxiv 512 pp 134 95 cloth book reviews and noteslutheran churches in early modern europe is a collection of sixteen articles from historians and art historians addressing topics ranging from theological understandings of church space to church architecture and every aspect of interior space such as decorations epitaphs altars and pulpits vestments organs and music related objects and so forth the chronological scope of the articles runs from the early sixteenth through the mid eighteenth century in many cases most exceptional however is the volume s geographic coverage which not only includes the lutheran heartlands in germany and scandinavia but also places were lutherans were minority communities such as transylvania poland estonia and the netherlands the volume contains 130 helpful black and white images that enable the reader to visualize the authors descriptions as numerous contributors remark this array is made even more complex by a key tenet of early modern lutheranism that compared with other confessions of the time lutherans defined the category of adiaphora especially broadly particularly with regard to material church culture as a result lutheran churches and their interior furnishings exhibit bewildering variety over time and space despite this diversity however four broad themes emerge in the course of the volume first multiple authors emphasize the preserving or conserving power of lutheranism 12 a phenomenon seen particularly in the german lands where without confessional competition in close proximity churches were free to retain their medieval material presence in other places such as norway as oystein ekroll has discovered and the swedish provincial cathedral in turku finland as riitta laitinen finds the broad continuity of church material culture was due to the comparatively slow implementation of the reformation sometimes however the story was more complicated than simple continuity as for example when challenges from other confessions inspired lutherans to re embrace aspects of medieval material church culture and practice what they had earlier viewed with a critical eye vera isaiasz argues that church consecrations once ridiculed by lutherans as catholic superstition reemerged in the late sixteenth century as part of an effort by lutherans to differentiate their own understanding of church space from that of the calvinists evelin wetter demonstrates that the rise of calvinism in late sixteenth century transylvania resulted in the use of pre reformation ecclesiastical vestments by lutherans to distinguish themselves from the starker reformed and in late sixteenth century denmark and northern germany sven rune havsteen has discovered a renewed acceptance of images among lutherans reacting against the calvinist inspired criticism thereof competition from catholics also impacted the material culture of lutheran churches sometimes in unexpected ways emily fisher gray has discovered that in the bi confessional city of augsburg lutheran churches became increasingly filled with ornamentation giving them a rather catholic feel in the paintings on epitaphs and in their placement within lutheran churches maria deiters observes a continuation of the medieval notion of the communio sanctorum in two of berlin s churches clearly the story is not always one of strict continuity a second phenomenon evident throughout the volume is the way in which lutherans adapted and reinterpreted medieval material church culture to fit their own theological notions", "title_raw": "Lutheran Churches in Early Modern Europe .

Edited by Andrew Spicer . Aldershot : Ashgate , 2012. xxiv + 512 pp. $134.95 cloth.Book Reviews and NotesLutheran Churches in Early Modern Europe is a collection of sixteen articles from historians and art historians addressing topics ranging from theological understandings of church space to church architecture and every aspect of interior space (such as decorations, epitaphs, altars and pulpits, vestments, organs and music-related objects, and so forth). The chronological scope of the articles runs from the early sixteenth through the mid-eighteenth century in many cases. Most exceptional, however, is the volume's geographic coverage, which not only includes the Lutheran heartlands in Germany and Scandinavia, but also places were Lutherans were minority communities such as Transylvania, Poland, Estonia, and the Netherlands. The volume contains 130 helpful black-and-white images that enable the reader to visualize the authors' descriptions. As numerous contributors remark, this array is made even more complex by a key tenet of early modern Lutheranism: that compared with other confessions of the time, Lutherans defined the category of adiaphora especially broadly, particularly with regard to material church culture. As a result, Lutheran churches and their interior furnishings exhibit bewildering variety over time and space. Despite this diversity, however, four broad themes emerge in the course of the volume.First, multiple authors emphasize the \"preserving or conserving power of Lutheranism (12),\" a phenomenon seen particularly in the German lands where, without confessional competition in close proximity, churches were free to retain their medieval material presence. In other places, such as Norway, as Oystein Ekroll has discovered, and the Swedish provincial Cathedral in Turku (Finland), as Riitta Laitinen finds, the broad continuity of church material culture was due to the comparatively slow implementation of the Reformation.Sometimes, however, the story was more complicated than simple continuity as, for example, when challenges from other confessions inspired Lutherans to re-embrace aspects of medieval material church culture and practice what they had earlier viewed with a critical eye. Vera Isaiasz argues that church consecrations, once ridiculed by Lutherans as Catholic superstition, reemerged in the late sixteenth century as part of an effort by Lutherans to differentiate their own understanding of church space from that of the Calvinists. Evelin Wetter demonstrates that the rise of Calvinism in late sixteenth-century Transylvania resulted in the use of pre-Reformation ecclesiastical vestments by Lutherans to distinguish themselves from the starker Reformed. And in late sixteenth century Denmark and Northern Germany, Sven Rune Havsteen has discovered a renewed acceptance of images among Lutherans reacting against the Calvinist-inspired criticism thereof.Competition from Catholics also impacted the material culture of Lutheran churches, sometimes in unexpected ways. Emily Fisher Gray has discovered that in the bi-confessional city of Augsburg, Lutheran churches became increasingly filled with ornamentation, giving them a rather \"Catholic\" feel. In the paintings on epitaphs, and in their placement within Lutheran churches, Maria Deiters observes a continuation of the medieval notion of the communio sanctorum in two of Berlin's churches. Clearly the story is not always one of strict continuity.A second phenomenon evident throughout the volume is the way in which Lutherans adapted and reinterpreted medieval material church culture to fit their own theological notions. \u2026" }, { "paper": "1981949595", "venue": "56601287", "year": "2014", "title": "a scottish anti catholic satire crossing the border ane bull of our haly fader the paip quhairby it is leesum to everie man to haif tua wyffis and the redeswyre raid of 1575", "label": [ "53553401" ], "author": [ "2557358019" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "the significance of political commentary and satire in scotland in the aftermath of mary queen of scots s deposition and during the minority of james vi is gradually receiving scholarly recognition many examples survive in the english state papers but few survive in scottish archives and even fewer date from after the end of the marian civil wars may 1573 this article considers a hitherto unknown piece of anti catholic satire taking the form of a fake papal bull the piece opens by bemoaning the woeful state of catholicism in the face of protestant incursion and provides a solution in the form of a dispensation allowing catholic men to take two wives on the first reading this constitutes an amusing critique of the sexual morality of catholics however a reference to the st bartholomew s day massacre reminds readers that the catholic threat from the continent remained palpable the accompanying cover note allows the bull to be dated to circa august 1575 a point when anglo scottish tension was high following the raid of redeswyre circulated amongst pro english scots including former spies negotiating with england following the raid this satire not only commented upon but potentially also tried to direct contemporary politics at a critical juncture for anglo scottish protestant solidarity", "title_raw": "A Scottish anti-Catholic satire crossing the border: \u2018Ane bull of our haly fader the paip, quhairby it is leesum to everie man to haif tua wyffis\u2019 and the Redeswyre Raid of 1575", "abstract_raw": "The significance of political commentary and satire in Scotland in the aftermath of Mary, Queen of Scots\u2019s deposition and during the minority of James VI is gradually receiving scholarly recognition.

This article considers a hitherto unknown piece of anti-Catholic satire. Taking the form of a fake papal Bull, the piece opens by bemoaning the woeful state of Catholicism in the face of Protestant incursion, and provides a solution in the form of a dispensation allowing Catholic men to take two wives. On the first reading, this constitutes an amusing critique of the sexual morality of Catholics. However, a reference to the St Bartholomew\u2019s Day massacre reminds readers that the Catholic threat from the continent remained palpable. The accompanying cover note allows the Bull to be dated to circa August 1575, a point when Anglo-Scottish tension was high following the Raid of Redeswyre. Circulated amongst pro-English Scots, including former spies, negotiating with England following the Raid, this satire not only commented upon, but potentially also tried to direct, contemporary politics, at a critical juncture for Anglo-Scottish Protestant solidarity." }, { "paper": "1972559719", "venue": "34740387", "year": "2014", "title": "copying errors of potters from three cultures predictable directions for a so called random phenomenon", "label": [ "2780087420" ], "author": [ "2329812667", "2124485061", "2581931831" ], "reference": [ "4931210", "179815157", "648759715", "1484547183", "1528493742", "1551283852", "1571159715", "1593742105", "1605999226", "1811781384", "1933657216", "1955756577", "1964827431", "1970188610", "2012413612", "2028006447", "2047815179", "2052411602", "2064529685", "2076840749", "2081781910", "2089682881", "2089745666", "2093735837", "2096220443", "2097731068", "2105460860", "2112700189", "2118125849", "2124669019", "2131290019", "2150561493", "2153676627", "2164233973", "2316012851", "2317997934", "2320588090", "2335360883", "2502823620", "2531097957", "2586839620", "2587597110", "2788462846", "2796402607" ], "abstract": "abstract the impact of copying error on change in artifact morphology is studied through a field experiment with three groups of potters each with a distinct potting tradition one from france and two from india the nine french potters and the 12 indian potters had to reproduce in five specimens four different model shapes with two different weights of clay in total each potter threw 40 pots results show that the variability generated while copying depends on both the difficulty of the task and the cultural learning niches of the potters we conclude that even though unintended the copying error is culturally constrained and therefore its amplitude and directions predictable this is attributed to the cultural selection of motor skills during apprenticeship", "title_raw": "Copying errors of potters from three cultures: Predictable directions for a so-called random phenomenon", "abstract_raw": "Abstract The impact of copying error on change in artifact morphology is studied through a field experiment with three groups of potters, each with a distinct potting tradition (one from France and two from India). The nine French potters and the 12 Indian potters had to reproduce \u2013 in five specimens \u2013 four different model shapes with two different weights of clay (in total, each potter threw 40 pots). Results show that the variability generated while copying depends on both the difficulty of the task and the cultural learning niches of the potters.

The first type, embodied in the Genesis narratives and Greek genealogical traditions, portrays the founders as leaving a distant land to settle peacefully in a new land. The second is exemplified by the central hexateuchal theme of the Israelites\u2019 migration to Canaan by dispossessing the native population as well as the Dorian migration traditions. Several factors indicate that the foundation story genre also became central and foundational in other small kingdoms around the Mediterranean\u2014as indicated, for example, by the Phoenician\u2013Luwian inscriptions referring to bt Mps/Mopsus and related classical sources. The popularity of the genre in the ancient Mediterranean is striking in light of the fact that, while experiencing tribal migrations and wanderings, the great Mesopotamian and Egyptian kingdoms never represented themselves as \u201cimmigrants.\u201d It is suggested that this genre may have emerged with the rise of the new, small-scale kingdoms in the Mediterranean basin toward the end of the second millennium b.c.e. The Phoenician and Greek colonization enterprises of the first third of the first millennium b.c.e. in particular increased awareness of the newly emerging states and focused attention on ethnic identity." }, { "paper": "2024741737", "venue": "31769938", "year": "2014", "title": "crusading in frankish greece a study of byzantine western relations and attitudes 1204 1282 by nikolaos g chrissis medieval church studies 22 pp xlii 338 incl 7 maps turnhout brepols 2012 90 978 2 503 53423 7", "label": [ "195244886", "74916050", "104562893" ], "author": [ "2157170978" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Crusading in Frankish Greece.

It shows how the commonplace connection of John Christie to abortion and Beryl Evan's death was not a given in the wider public, legal, political, and forensic imagination of the time, reflecting the multi-layered and shifting meanings of abortion from the date of the original trials in the late 1940s and 1950s, through the subsequent judicial and literary reinvestigations of the case in the 1960s, to its cinematic interpretation in the 1970s. Exploring the language of abortion used in these different contexts, the article reveals changes in the gendering of abortionists, the increasing power and presence of abortion activists and other social reformers, the changing representation of working-class women and men, and the increasing critique of the practice of backstreet abortion. The case is also made for a kind of societal blind spot on abortion at the time of both the Evans and Christie trials; in particular, a reluctance to come to terms with the concept of the male abortionist, which distorted the criminal investigations and the trials themselves. Only when public acceptance for legalizing abortion grew in the more liberal climate of the 1960s and beyond did a revisionist understanding of the murder of Beryl Evans, in which abortion came to be positioned as a central element, gain a sustained hearing." }, { "paper": "2020224141", "venue": "190270160", "year": "2014", "title": "headhunting and amphitheatre combat in roman london england new evidence from the walbrook valley", "label": [ "10277891", "195244886", "166957645", "2775907305", "176979668", "2778110396" ], "author": [ "2168705519", "2737333315" ], "reference": [ "40434550", "47090170", "64156803", "72414329", "75390988", "148352055", "198435371", "373326166", "584103219", "598714311", "627826855", "651472692", "656901011", "1133652509", "1202729130", "1483610526", "1490715661", "1499796296", "1505984867", "1519032464", "1525480208", "1565408084", "1567433858", "1570811908", "1574296668", "1585290356", "1605570175", "1793568032", "1883806552", "1970543204", "1984211486", "1997036596", "2024623048", "2029329200", "2031793837", "2035480401", "2055192839", "2055256217", "2060962429", "2061951617", "2062729537", "2068499842", "2073666361", "2078606134", "2079623241", "2091625641", "2103170498", "2104234560", "2104670621", "2126198614", "2135428669", "2139750235", "2143805285", "2147777521", "2262702459", "2309169602", "2318331846", "2330669431", "2332590930", "2344344626", "2481731892", "2482018538", "2496269580", "2498565969", "2501545766", "2505274329", "2586905158", "2611222418", "2762440136", "2902675143", "2904653535", "3110867094", "3128236201" ], "abstract": "in 1988 the disarticulated human remains of forty roman individuals were discovered at 52 63 london wall london examination of the sample using techniques employed by forensic anthropology and entomology found that some of the material had been deposited in open waterlogged pits the majority of the sample were adult males who had evidence for multiple peri mortem blunt and sharp force injuries many also had healed injuries suggesting that violence was a common feature of their life despite the fact that this material was recovered from an industrial area in the upper walbrook valley of london the evidence for trauma their context and associated archaeological and environmental evidence reveals that these deposits are markedly different from other published examples of human remains from the walbrook stream and river thames and may represent the remains of headhunting by the roman army and or defeated gladiators", "title_raw": "Headhunting and amphitheatre combat in Roman London, England: new evidence from the Walbrook Valley", "abstract_raw": "In 1988, the disarticulated human remains of forty Roman individuals were discovered at 52-63 London Wall, London.

Bern, Switzerland : Peter Lang AG , 2011. 268 pp. $78.95 paper.Book Reviews and NotesArguing for the inclusion of Christianity in the broad sweep of national historical writing has been an ongoing challenge that religious historians have undertaken in recent decades with varying degrees of success. Certainly in North America the work of historians studying Christianity has yielded tremendous results that have altered the historiography, though they have not always influenced popular perceptions about the role of religious faith in the nation's history. Within the context of Aoteroa, New Zealand, historians have traditionally shied away from dealing with Christianity as part of the national story. This neglect, whether conscious or not, resulted in historian Ian Breward arguing in the late 1970s for the inclusion of religion as part of the broader historical narrative of the nation, which influenced historical writing for the next two decades. Since 2001 there has been a renewed interest in religious history and The Spirit of the Past is one fruit of that new era of scholarship. Comprised of essays that were presented at the Religious History Association of Aoteroa, New Zealand (RHAANZ) conferences since 2005, the volume illustrates the assorted topics and methodologies that religious historians have taken in recent years to examine and analyze Christianity as part of the nation's history.Although the writers of New Zealand's history may have neglected the role of Christianity, religious faith was never far from the public consciousness. Historians Peter Lineham and John Stenhouse, in their two outstanding contributions to the volume, reflect on the debate about the place of religion in New Zealand's history that has, at times, escaped the walls of academia and spilled over into the public square. Essays dealing with popular religion, Roman Catholic women's congregations, missionary work among the MAori, women evangelists, the temperance movement, church as a site of romance, and the issue of mixed-religious marriages, show that Christianity mattered in the everyday lives of ordinary New Zealanders. What also becomes clear is that religion in the history of New Zealand has been deeply influenced by transnational exchanges, primarily among English-speaking peoples, that brought a myriad of voices into the everyday lives of New Zealanders. Although the connection between British imperialism and Christian missions to the MAori may cast a large shadow over the nation, this complicated issue does not dominate the volume but rather is included as part of the map of the religious history of this multicultural nation. In fact, the concluding essay in the volume provides tremendous insight into how the recovery of this troubled missionary past is still vitally important in the present. The final essay provides an account of the 2007 discovery of a missionary station cemetery on the grounds of the Tolaga Bay Area School that contained the remains of Christian MAori who had died, most likely of illness, in the mid-nineteenth century. The essay deftly shows how forgotten places, events, and people are crucial to making sense of New Zealand's complex past, especially since no one remembered this important piece of local religious history. This last account marks out a middle ground between divisive cultural politics and the tragedy of forgetting to show that neither of these options is useful for understanding New Zealand's history. In sum, the story of the lost graveyard illustrates the contribution that the essays in this volume make to the ongoing search for New Zealand's Christian past and why remembering that heritage is important for the country today. \u2026" }, { "paper": "1905766704", "venue": "102499938", "year": "2014", "title": "forging deeper into the wilderness the state of visual anthropology today", "label": [ "177164792" ], "author": [ "2187560015" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Forging Deeper into the Wilderness: The State of Visual Anthropology Today", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2318277398", "venue": "114691300", "year": "2014", "title": "tang china in multi polar asia a history of diplomacy and war by wang zhenping honolulu university of hawai i press 2013 xvi 462 pp 65 00 cloth", "label": [ "191935318", "195244886" ], "author": [ "2591744599" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Tang China in Multi-Polar Asia: A History of Diplomacy and War.

By Alan Wieder. Foreword by Nadine Gordimer. New York: Monthly Review Press, 2013. Pp. xvi, 390; photographs, bibliography, index. $23.95 paper.Oral historian Alan Wieder has produced a rich personal and political biography of Ruth First and Joe Slovo, two principals of the South African anti-apartheid struggle. Told through the voices of \"family, friends, comrades, colleagues, and critics,\" as well as First's and Slovo's own writings, the interwoven stories demonstrate both their power as a couple and the important contribution of each as an individual (p. 21). Based on information gleaned from seventy-five interviews and archival collections in South Africa and the United Kingdom, Wieder's complex narrative situates the lives of First and Slovo in the context of their history, culture, and community.South African Jews of Latvian and Lithuanian descent, First and Slovo were part of a significant group of Eastern European Jews who escaped anti-Semitism in their homelands and embraced the anti-racist struggle in South Africa. Like First and Slovo, many joined the Communist Party of South Africa and focused on economic as well as racial injustice. After the CPS A was banned in 1950, First and Slovo continued to work underground with the reconstituted South African Communist Party and to develop a close collaboration with the African National Congress and other organizations working toward national emancipation. First drew international attention to apartheid atrocities through her work as a journalist, teacher, and academic researcher. Slovo employed his skills as a lawyer to defend political prisoners until the banning of the ANC and his own arrest in 1960. Both First and Slovo spent months in detention-in First's case, in solitary confinement. When the ANC embraced armed struggle in 1961, Slovo became one of its primary strategists, sharing with Nelson Mandela the high command of the movement's armed affiliate, Umkhonto we Sizwe. Forced into exile, First and Slovo continued to combat apartheid, first in London and later in African countries that supported the South African liberation struggle. In 1982, First was assassinated by a parcel bomb sent by apartheid agents. The struggle culminated a few years later. As the system imploded, the government sought accommodation with the opposition. The ANC, SACP, and other anti-apartheid organizations were unbanned in 1990, and Slovo was able to return to South Africa, where he became a central player in the negotiations that brought about the end of apartheid and the establishment of majority rule in 1994.First's and Slovo's own writings and other academic works have focused on the activists' political contributions. Wieder's book does not cover significant new ground in this area, but it does provide additional understanding gleaned from colleagues in the underground whose stories previously had not been told. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2026038040", "venue": "14980801", "year": "2014", "title": "moving on archaeological perspectives on mobility and migration", "label": [ "166957645" ], "author": [ "2400824944" ], "reference": [ "423182157", "438253184", "574470671", "588947610", "598544916", "644520631", "1568957283", "1936774573", "1961273557", "1963578466", "2011044715", "2016333114", "2049218612", "2105692907", "2168564814", "2214868606", "2276765484", "2405056064", "2478048288", "2486358332", "2490118962", "2910150152", "2993261792", "3149743129" ], "abstract": "abstracteven if archaeological explanations and theoretical interests have shied away from migration with the advent of the new processual and post processual archaeologies the reality remains that migration was in all likelihood as common recurrent and widespread a phenomenon in the ancient and distant past as it is today and has been recorded historically in recent periods by way of introduction to this thematic issue on mobility migration this paper offers a brief survey of intellectual developments and signals recent trends", "title_raw": "Moving On: Archaeological Perspectives on Mobility and Migration", "abstract_raw": "AbstractEven if archaeological explanations and theoretical interests have shied away from migration with the advent of the New, Processual and Post-Processual archaeologies, the reality remains that migration was in all likelihood as common, recurrent and widespread a phenomenon in the ancient and distant past as it is today and has been recorded historically in recent periods.

By Toyin Falola. Rochester, NY: University of Rochester Press, 2013. Pp. xiv, 481; maps, photographs, bibliography, index. $ 100.00.The indefatigable Toyin Falola has now produced a set of essays on the African diaspora, focusing especially on how the earlier diaspora has been overlaid by a new diaspora from Africa. The insightful introduction, entitled \"Old and New African Diaspora,\" sets the two great waves of transnational migration in relation to each other, identifying the modem networks that come out of them. Principal emphasis is on modem identities, especially the New African Diaspora as exemplified by the interaction of Nigeria and the new Yoruba diaspora in the United StatesThe work addresses a general audience: all who interact with the New Diaspora and especially cosmopolitan Africans at home and abroad. The author draws on his distinctive experience as a scholar and facilitator of scholarship on Africa. Falola, in addition to his several monographs on Nigeria in recent generations, has edited and co-edited some sixty volumes on recent African history and on Africa in the world. The volumes result especially from the many conferences he has organized at the University of Texas and in Nigeria. These publications highlight his own contributions yet reveal equally the diaspora-based networks of scholarship, cultural production, and enterprise within which he moves. Falola shows, implicitly, how he and others have relied on such networks to produce an impressive quantity of academic and cultural work on the United States, Nigeria, and Africa more broadly.The four chapters of Part 1 interpret the development of black identities in the Old Diaspora, highlighting rapidly but forcefully the experiences of slavery, displacement, and the resultant cultural exchanges. Falola treats the 1839 Amistad rebellion as a turning point, after which assertiveness became more prominent among blacks in the United States and in Africa, as they responded to a century of \"colonization of memory\" and \"colonization of spaces.\" He treats nationalism as a campaign of counter-colonization. This campaign led to the establishment of Black Studies in North American academic life and then to the \"centralization of Africa\" and the \"intellectualization of Blackness\" by a steadily expanding group of black scholars. To convey the varying scales of diaspora identity, Falola uses the terms roots, routes, and roofs, working from local identity to the encompassing pan-African scale.The book's second section provides a historical introduction to modem Yoruba culture and identity. In a manner that focuses more on the imperial heritage of Oyo and British rule than on the earlier heritage of Ife, Falola traces Yoruba dispersal across the Atlantic in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, then turns to Nigeria, chronicling the formation of a coherent Yoruba identity in nineteenth-century Nigeria and under British colonial rule. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2030682173", "venue": "114691300", "year": "2014", "title": "eileen chang romancing languages cultures and genres edited by kam louie hong kong hong kong university press 2012 xi 298 pp 25 00 paper 60 00 cloth", "label": [ "52119013" ], "author": [ "2144140883" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Eileen Chang: Romancing Languages, Cultures and Genres .

Papers presented in this special issue are an output of the international NEOMAP Project (Neolithization and Modernization: Landscape History on East Asian Inland Seas) (2005\u20132012), which sought to apply two key approaches drawn from European Neolithic studies to the archaeology of East Asia: (a) the concept of Neolithization, defined as a long-term and historically-contingent process of culture-change; and (b), the contextual study of this process via the framework of cultural landscape research. This exercise has been highly productive, and provides new insights into a series of unique cultural transformations in East Asia, most of which have a very different sequence and character to those in the European Neolithic. It is hoped that, in turn, these comparative insights into the Neolithization of East Asian cultural landscapes will encourage those working on the European Neolithic to look back over their own regional datasets and critically reflect on some of their deeper assumptions about the internal logic and cultural content of the European Neolithic transition. Given the existence of so many fundamentally different kinds of Neolithic across the broader continent of Eurasia, the overall goal of this special issue is to re-kindle international debates about how best to explain each of these distinctive regional Neolithization trajectories." }, { "paper": "2568396382", "venue": "7015929", "year": "2014", "title": "gaza s bottle rockets", "label": [ "32236832", "3651065", "195244886" ], "author": [ "2571067740" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Gaza's Bottle Rockets", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2319831923", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2014", "title": "piero gleijeses visions of freedom havana washington pretoria and the struggle for southern africa 1976 1991", "label": [ "195244886" ], "author": [ "2118153646" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Piero Gleijeses.

Edited by Karen Kossie-Chernyshev. (College Station: Texas AM cloth, $48.50, ISBN 978-1-60344-976-2.) In 2003 Texas Southern University history professor Karen Kossie-Chernyshev discovered the records of Lillian Jones Horace, a prominent African American teacher, novelist, and publisher, in an archival collection in the central branch of the public library in Fort Worth, Texas. Historians often dream of discovering an unknown or untouched primary source, and now readers can reap the benefit of this rare find in Recovering Five Generations Hence: The Life and Writings of Lillian Jones Horace. This text contains Horace's novel Five Generations Hence, complete with helpful historical endnotes by the editor and a collection of eight scholarly essays that discuss Horace's life experiences and her writings. By helping Horace's writings gain public attention, Kossie-Chemyshev's work contributes to the disciplines of history and literature by recovering the intellectual legacy of one of the first black women in Texas to write a novel and the first African American female publisher in the state. Published in 1916, Five Generations Hence opens with the central character, Grace Noble, a melancholy rural unmarried Texas teacher in her late twenties, lamenting about her life and the dismal social conditions of her fellow African Americans. Noble, the granddaughter of a slave, overcame great adversity to become a teacher. She represented the quintessential ideal of the African American educator, who promoted educational attainment as a key to social advancement. While Five Generations Hence begins as a classic racial uplift novel with Grace as an ardent proponent of the politics of respectability, it offers a surprising twist that complicates this assessment. After much soul searching, Grace finds her life's purpose when she decides to write a manuscript that encourages blacks to emigrate gradually from the United States to an unnamed African country. In the course of promoting her emigration vision, the protagonist espouses prevalent internalized racist views reminiscent of Booker T. Washington's arguments, such as \"the Negro as a race is yet a child.\" when she argues that emigration to Africa would enable blacks to learn the \"great lesson of self-reliance as a race\" (p. 50). While the theme of African emigration is not new in literary texts, it is novel that the idea is conveyed by a black female character. Through Grace's views and the character of Grace's best friend, Violet Gray, an African missionary, Horace engenders black nationalist beliefs by promoting the importance of women's perspectives on missionary work and emigration. Although Grace Noble's book sparks controversy among anti-emigrationists, the character becomes a successful novelist. In another surprising turn in Five Generations Hence, Grace, who has failed to find a romantic partner during the majority of the novel, eventually marries the man of her dreams and has children after years of contentment as a financially independent novelist. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2317857848", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2014", "title": "mark salber phillips on historical distance", "label": [ "52119013" ], "author": [ "2499555697" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Mark Salber Phillips.

Born in Ohio in 1824, Flickinger would visit West Africa twelve times during a career in church work that stretched from the antebellum period into the twentieth century. From his initial trip in 1855 when he helped found the first United Brethren mission in Sierra Leone, Flickinger was an ardent advocate for missionary activity.1 The Sierra Leone mission had finally begun to show promise by the time he wrote his lecture, but many church members still saw it as an expensive failure. Flickinger admitted that he had often been asked, \"Will you after all your efforts to educate & christianize the Africans as found in their heathen condition, be able to make anything of them?\"2 The question revealed widespread doubts about the future of the mission and, even more worryingly, the capacities of unconverted Africans. The question was most striking in its exclusive ascription of agency to Flickinger and his fellow missionaries. Flickinger responded to such doubts by arguing that all human beings shared a common origin and nature, attributing differences between groups to climate and education, and claiming, \"About as large a percent of the African race, in their native country, other things being equal, succeed as white people do.\"3 Among other proofs of African capacity, he noted the intelligence and piety of his African namesake, Daniel Flickinger Wilberforce (Figure 2).4 Fig. 1.Daniel Flickinger. From Daniel K. Flickinger, Fifty-Five Years of Active Ministerial Life (Dayton, Ohio: United Brethren Publishing, 1907).Fig. 2.Daniel Flickinger Wilberforce. From Daniel K. Flickinger, Fifty-Five Years of Active Ministerial Life (Dayton, Ohio: United Brethren Publishing, 1907).Many United Brethren would have already heard this remarkable young African man's story. Born to Christian parents in early 1857 on Sherbro Island, off the southwestern coast of Sierra Leone, he was named in honor of Flickinger, who happened to be visiting a nearby mission station run by the American Missionary Association. After gaining an early education in the mission schools, Wilberforce accepted an invitation to visit the United States in 1871 and by coincidence encountered Flickinger.5 The missionary, recognizing an opportunity to bolster his work in Sierra Leone, arranged for Wilberforce to travel to United Brethren headquarters in Dayton, Ohio and continue his studies. Converting to Christianity soon after his arrival, Wilberforce was welcomed into the United Brethren church by Bishop Milton Wright, father of boys named Wilbur and Orville who would grow up to become the city's most famous sons.6 A gifted student and professing Christian, Daniel Flickinger Wilberforce became the repository of great hopes on the part of United Brethren leaders eager to evangelize West Africa.7 Their dreams, and his presence in Dayton, were signs of ongoing transformations within the small denomination, which had been started by revivalistic German Reformed and Mennonites in Pennsylvania, Maryland, and Virginia, and spread among German-speakers in Ohio and Indiana in the early 1800s. \u2026" }, { "paper": "1571993349", "venue": "169569900", "year": "2014", "title": "local

Writing was new and wonderful, he admitted, and he gave European colonizers credit for cars and bicycles that made travel faster. But otherwise, nothing was new. Martin Southwold, the young anthropologist, suggested that clocks were new, and Lukongwa pointed out that they'd had roosters to wake them up. Surely the gramophone was progress, Southwold asserted, and Lukongwa responded that when they had wanted music, they called people to play-and what was more, those people had danced. No gramophone-or radio-did that. Reaching, Southwold noted that the radio also brought news. Once, Lukongwa asserted, they had all had spirits living in their houses that passed on local gossip. Thus people then had plenty of news. In his fieldnotes, Southwold reported that he was merely able to respond with an \"umph\" as Lukongwa completed his explanation that \"God ... has given us all the things we need; and he gave the Europeans cleverness so that they could make things for themselves.... But you Europeans disobeyed him and came here to Africa to take away our land. You are ... robbers! Look at that Governor [Andrew Cohen], what a bad man he is, always trying to take away the people's land.\"1Sir Andrew Cohen, who Lukongwa so bluntly condemned, was a development governor par excellence, with a vision for the transformation of Uganda that went well beyond writing and bicycles. Arriving in 1952 to be governor of Uganda, he pushed for local political development through a new system of election that would integrate the kingdom of Buganda into the Protectorate of Uganda, providing a Legislative Council that would be able to lead the Protectorate forward, rather than clinging to the region's complex history of treaties, kingdoms, and locally powerful individuals and families. With civil service reforms, he also sought to expand the country's corps of technical experts and develop the country economically, providing scientific help to cash crop farmers in cotton and coffee, and a modem system of land surveying, public health, veterinary services, and more.Lukongwa's vision of good governance, though, like that of many of his Bag anda peers, was local. Buganda mattered. Successful policy and programs would strengthen its clans and kingdom. Cohen's ideas were much larger in scale. He sought to expand the political sphere, foster economic growth, integrate Buganda with Uganda, Uganda with East Africa, and East Africa with the world. The immediate clash between these ideas of how to foster the region's future led Cohen to deport Buganda's kabaka [king] in 1953, triggering a dramatic crisis that shook the region's politics, and triggered a deluge of explanations, spying, lobbying, lawsuits, and anthropology, that recorded a rich archive on development and power that documented not simply perspectives of European experts or project managers, but local, intensely political, observers who spoke for themselves and their people not simply as subjects, but as citizens.2Late colonial Buganda therefore offers a historian an unusual opportunity to think about how indigenous actors critiqued modem views of development not through essential culture, generic conservatism or romantic egalitarianism, but out of an understanding that the overarching centralization, professionalization and progressivism behind modem development policies attacked local actors' ability to control and shape their own economic and political futures. Ganda critics of development policy did not define democracy through elections or economic reforms on a cold war scale of left or right. Instead, they can best be understood as patriots who understood that for local men and women to be politically effective, power had to remain connected to the land, and within a literal arm's reach of the people. \u2026" }, { "paper": "1764436150", "venue": "173880072", "year": "2014", "title": "new era for stonehenge", "label": [ "2780390727", "52119013", "166957645" ], "author": [ "2494994017", "1989378356", "2964149921", "2616546566", "1989892267" ], "reference": [ "247230882", "1569766282", "2021668221", "2038291489", "2097854756", "2129233421", "2129432715", "2158409169", "2168132177", "2345823858", "2460744078", "2473906317", "2587731439" ], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "New era for Stonehenge", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "1606316057", "venue": "119035484", "year": "2014", "title": "the prairie boys go to war the fifth illinois cavalry 1861 1865", "label": [ "195244886" ], "author": [ "2675259551" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "The Prairie Boys Go to War: The Fifth Illinois Cavalry, 1861-1865", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "1595786329", "venue": "184237522", "year": "2014", "title": "flodoard the will of st remigius and the see of reims in the tenth century", "label": [ "74916050" ], "author": [ "2553509647" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "the longer will of st remigius of rheims as preserved in the mid tenth century historia remensis ecclesiae of flodoard of rheims is widely agreed to be a forgery but despite the fact that it is known almost exclusively from flodoard s work historians have never suggested that this document was produced in his day this article contends that the longer will was indeed an original component of the historia read in this context the will can throw new light on the historia itself the career of flodoard and the tumultuous history of the church of rheims in the first half of the tenth century", "title_raw": "Flodoard, the will of St Remigius and the see of Reims in the tenth century", "abstract_raw": "The \u2018longer\u2019 will of St Remigius of Rheims, as preserved in the mid-tenth-century Historia Remensis ecclesiae of Flodoard of Rheims, is widely agreed to be a forgery.

Brooks, 1948\u20132014: A tribute", "abstract_raw": "Christopher Brooks was a member of the Board of Editors for The Seventeenth Cen tuiy since 1987. Born in Salisbury, Maryland, in December 1948, and educated at McDonogh School, Chris initially contemplated a career in journalism before becoming hooked on seventeenth-century English history. Chris spent most of his academic career as a member of the History Department at Durham University: appointed in 1980; promoted to Reader in 1997 and Professor in 2001. Chris was due to retire in October 2014 at the age of 65 and was planning to continue to write for perhaps another decade in the Florida sunshine. Denied the full benefit of what seventeenth-century folk called a \"green old age\", his life was cut short by a heart attack in August 2014. Damn those Gitanes cigarettes! He is survived by his wife Sharyn, who supported him throughout his career in a loving marriage that lasted 45 years to the day.Chris will be remembered as a true scholar, who dedicated his life and an impressive mind to the study of society, politics and the law in early modern England. Chris was in the process of completing a volume on the tumultuous period 1625-1689 for the Oxford History of the Laws of England, having received a Leverhulme Major Research Fellowship to complete this monumental work. Characteristically, Chris was eager to finish this beast of a book, so as to get on with other projects. Chris had long been mulling over the \"common law mind\" and was poised to make a significant contribution to the place of the English legal tradition in intellectual history. He was also keen to join me in a planned project on the legal aspects of inheritance, focusing on the executorship process and the social consequences of wealth dispersal through probate. We had planned to write a book on inheritance together in a few years' time. And he never stopped thinking about the causes and course of the English Civil War, in which the law-abiding society he studied so carefully tore itself apart while disputing the place of high authority.Chris was first \"turned on\" to the study of early modern England while an undergraduate at Princeton, where he was taught by Lawrence Stone among other members of that distinguished Faculty. One of the titans of twentieth-century English historiography, Stone's influence as a teacher had an abiding effect on Chris. Though Stone later chided Chris for taking \"too lawyerly\" an approach, and Chris was the most careful of scholars, he remained surprisingly committed to some of Stone's larger hypotheses. Chris admired Stone's boldness, and believed he had reached deep insights into the nature of English society between the fifteenth and the eighteenth centimes, especially in relation to the history of the family, which revisionist criticism could not entirely disprove.Chris left Princeton in 1970 for an MA at Johns Hopkins, with Wilf Prest his first PhD supervisor, and where he hoped to be taught by the figure many would regard as the most impressive English-speaking historian of the era, J. G. A. Pocock. Before Pocock arrived to replace Prest (who was departing for Australia), however, Prest managed to persuade Chris to transfer to Oxford, where he would have limited funding but abundant access to the manuscript sources necessary for his doctoral project on the English common law and society. His Oxford D.Phil was awarded in 1978, having been supervised by J. P. Cooper of Balliol, whose exacting approach to documentation left as deep a mark on Chris's approach as Stone's ideas. Cooper died of a heart attack while driving to meet Chris to discuss the final revisions to the thesis; crashing his car with the annotated manuscript on the passenger seat. In a rare display of superstition, Chris was always a bit twitchy when his own PhD students submitted their theses and underwent their viva. At Oxford, Chris held a Junior Research Fellowship at Brasenose from 1976 to 1980 and a college lectureship at Wadham. During his Oxford days, he encountered and formed friendships with Andrew Foster, Kenneth Fincham, Anne Laurence, Kevin Sharpe, George Bernard, Martin Ingram and Simon Schama, among many others. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2319429592", "venue": "197577296", "year": "2014", "title": "iain g macdonald clerics and clansmen the diocese of argyll between the twelfth and the sixteenth centuries the northern world series leiden netherlands brill 2013 pp 352 182 00 cloth", "label": [ "74916050", "2780273408" ], "author": [ "2129771799" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Iain G.

It grows 6 meters tall and pushes out many wetland species. We have tried to cut it, poison it, burn it, bury it, till it, and drown it, and yet its tufted heads still sway in the wind. Many a scientist has tried to figure out how to deal with this invasive species, and each has met with frustration.\n\nMiddle-school teacher John Reynolds tried a different strategy: Instead of eradicating the invasive weed, he used it to build a boat. For three months, John harvested the two-story-tall reedy weeds and lashed them together according to his own design.\n\nWhen he finished, I received an e-mail. \u201cWe'll launch this afternoon if you're ready.\u201d In February? In Massachusetts? My blood chilled instantly. But I had to see if it floated.\n\nI donned my waders to protect myself against the 37\u00b0 Atlantic water. John and some of his students were in wetsuits ready to jump in. The boat was twice as long as the truck bed and had a curved bow like a Polynesian reed boat. I thought both the boat and my friend's willingness to jump in the water were crazy.\n\nBut it floated. Even when three people piled on it. It was still floating 2 hours later when the sun inched down the horizon. A seaworthy boat made out of weeds.\n\nScience relies on ingenuity. While converting a two-story weed into boats may not be the most effective management strategy for Phragmites , it's certainly an idea that's worth floating.\n\n [1]: pending:yes" }, { "paper": "2102489111", "venue": "97521448", "year": "2014", "title": "gatcombe roman settlement geophysical surveys 2009 2010", "label": [ "166957645" ], "author": [ "2300204894", "2300821806" ], "reference": [ "48214388", "600197513", "1566794143", "1607924549", "3015951052" ], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Gatcombe Roman Settlement: Geophysical Surveys 2009\u20132010", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2335187866", "venue": "114691300", "year": "2014", "title": "from frontier policy to foreign policy the question of india and the transformation of geopolitics in qing china by matthew w mosca stanford calif stanford university press 2013 xiii 398 pp 60 00 cloth", "label": [ "6303427", "2778571376", "191935318" ], "author": [ "2669832157" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "From Frontier Policy to Foreign Policy: The Question of India and the Transformation of Geopolitics in Qing China.

Although it has received virtually uncritical acceptance by modern Evangelicals in Northern Ireland, few are aware that there was a significant minority of Evangelicals who dissented from offering the movement their wholehearted support. This article examines why one of nineteenth-century Belfast's most controversial Anglican clerics, the Revd William McIlwaine, was very critical of the movement. Not all critics were outright opponents of the revival, however. McIlwaine was one of the revival's moderate critics, who believed that it was partially good. Nevertheless, the awakening's physical manifestations and its impact on theology and church order deeply disturbed him. The article also explains why 1859 was a turning point in McIlwaine's ecclesiastical career, which saw him move from Evangelicalism to a moderate High Church position." }, { "paper": "2014866752", "venue": "3091228", "year": "2014", "title": "land mobility and belonging in west africa", "label": [ "2549261" ], "author": [ "2470278765" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Land, Mobility, and Belonging in West Africa", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2313335954", "venue": "31769938", "year": "2014", "title": "fearful spirits reasoned follies the boundaries of superstition in late medieval europe by michael d bailey pp xv 295 ithaca london cornell university press 2013 55 978 0 8014 5144 7", "label": [ "2776858443" ], "author": [ "2010169913" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Fearful spirits, reasoned follies.

By Michael Brett. Rochester, NY: James Curry, 2013. Pp. xi, 356; bibliography, index. $90.00.African history has come a long way in a short time. At the beginning of the twentieth century the very notion of African history was almost universally dismissed, and it wasn't until the latter half of the century that mainstream historians even began to entertain the idea that African history either could or should be studied. Yet by the beginning of the twenty-first century African history had become an established part of the area studies pantheon, with a host of books and articles being produced every year examining diverse aspects of the history of the continent and its peoples.Until the publication of this intriguing volume by Michael Brett, however, no scholar has taken the time to look back and examine exactly how this transformation in the study and meaning of African history took place. Certainly such an undertaking is overdue. But Brett does not simply provide a historiography of African history. Such would be a useful undertaking, but it would also likely be rather cumbersome and of interest only to those with an already established grounding in the continent's history. Rather, Brett weaves together three distinct yet mutually supporting strands. First is a summary narrative of African history from roughly 10,000 years ago to the present-based largely upon the work of African historians over the past six decades. In the process, he examines both the growth of the concept of Africa as a unit of study and the manner in which scholars have argued for the understanding and significance of African history itself.The balancing act of presenting both a narrative of African history and of the construction of that narrative is a daunting one, and Brett is to be congratulated for the poise and style with which he achieves his goals. His periodization of the narrative into overlapping methodological and chronological units, focusing on the role played by archaeology, ethnography (including oral sources), and written documents is deftly presented. Also crucial to the attainment of his many goals is his choice to eschew footnotes and build the contributions of individual scholars and the dynamic tensions of their debates into the narrative itself. It is in so doing that Brett so successfully weaves together the longue duree of the African historical narrative with the very recent history of the birth of the field itself. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2054314485", "venue": "31769938", "year": "2014", "title": "bigamy and christian identity in late medieval champagne by sara mcdougall the middle ages pp vii 283 philadelphia university of pennsylvania press 2012 36 55 978 0 8122 4398 7 unmarriages women men and sexual unions in the middle ages by ruth mazo karras the middle ages pp vii 283 philadelphia university of pennsylvania press 2012 32 50 49 95 978 0 8122 4420 5", "label": [ "143128703" ], "author": [ "1850251436" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Bigamy and Christian identity in late medieval Champagne.

Historical narratives describe a brutal conquest by Anglo-Saxon invaders with nearly complete replacement of the indigenous population, but aspects of the archaeological record contradict this interpretation leading to competing hypotheses. Rather than replacement, a smaller group of Germanic immigrants may have settled in England as part of the social, religious, and political turmoil happening in western Europe at this time (Dark, 2000; Henig, 2002; Higham, 1992) or rapid acculturation with little contribution from Germanic immigrants may have occurred in the vacuum of Roman abandonment. As the number of Anglo-Saxon immigrants arriving in Britain is one of the focal issues of this debate, strontium and oxygen isotopic ratios, with their ability to identify immigrants in a burial population, offer a technique to test competing hypotheses. We employ oxygen and strontium isotope ratios in tooth enamel to identify the number of continental immigrants in a sample of 19 individuals from the early Anglo-Saxon cemetery at Wally Corner, Berinsfield in the Upper Thames Valley, Oxfordshire, UK. Local variation in bio-available strontium isotope ratios is established using faunal remains from the site and by sampling soils on geological formations within 8 km of the site. The oxygen isotope results show a homogeneous sample that is slightly enriched when calibrated to local meteoric water. One individual with a significantly depleted value may be a continental immigrant. Three others are strontium outliers. With only 5.3% of the sample originating from Europe, the isotopic data support the hypothesis of acculturation. In addition, the isotopic data shows no temporal patterning, although females show a statistically significant enrichment in the oxygen isotope ratio." }, { "paper": "1973737719", "venue": "164398212", "year": "2014", "title": "eleanor a congdon ed latin expansion in the medieval western mediterranean the expansion of latin europe 1000 1500 7 farnham surrey uk and burlington vt ashgate variorum 2013 pp xxviii 398 black and white figures 200 isbn 978 1 4094 5509 7", "label": [ "195244886", "4646841" ], "author": [ "2303818327" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Eleanor A.

By Catherine Cocks. Nature and Culture in America. (Philadelphia: University of Pennsylvania Press, 2013. Pp. [x], 255. $59.95, ISBN 978-0-8122-4499-1.) Tropical Whites: The Rise of the Tourist South in the Americas is a study of America's historical role in the development of the global tourist South, or what Catherine Cocks calls \"the Southland\" (p. 2). Cocks chronicles the rise of tropical tourism in Florida, Southern California, Mexico, and the Caribbean by looking at how late-nineteenth-century Eurocentric depictions of the tropics as \"the white man's grave\" underwent a dramatic transformation during the early twentieth century (p. 2). She argues that \"the historical shift usually understood as the emergence of a modern society, one characterized by cultural pluralism and moral liberalization, owed much to the tourist industry's production of 'tropical whites'--civilized, pale-skinned people with the youthful, sensuous joy of dark-skinned primitives\" (p. 2). Cocks attributes the evolution of the Southland as a popular tourist region to transformations in medicine, horticulture, and transportation. These changes facilitated the shift from environmental determinism to cultural pluralism, which had two major tributaries--romantic racialism and heterosexual liberalism--that \"downplayed civilization's repressive role and emphasized the productive variety of human nature\" (p. 7). Cocks divides her study into seven chapters that trace the rise of tropical tourism in the Southland and its contribution to popularizing cultural pluralism. Her first chapter explores how \"germ theory, phototherapy, and commercial horticulture\" convinced U.S. travelers about the health benefits of the tropics (p. 40). Tourism boosters, especially in Southern California and Florida, successfully capitalized on medical literature from the late 1880s to counter the opposing viewpoints of race theorists, geographers, and imperial officials who stressed the dangers of \"racial degeneration\" (p. 21). In chapter 2 Cocks transitions to a detailed look at the profound impact of advancements in transportation and hotel accommodations, particularly the precursor to modern-day cruise ships: luxury passenger liners. Cocks explains that the U.S.-owned United Fruit Company, along with developers like Henry Plant, played an instrumental role in stimulating Caribbean tourism because they not only made travel more pleasurable but also distanced it from colonization. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2194686598", "venue": "92608454", "year": "2015", "title": "brazilian historical writing in global perspective on the emergence of the concept of historiography", "label": [ "114799590", "206619068", "29598333" ], "author": [ "2261394168", "2501894917", "2400033966" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "this article assesses the meanings of the term historiography in brazilian historiography from the late nineteenth century to circa 1950 suggesting that its use plays an essential role in the process of the disciplinarization and legitimation of history as a discipline the global scale comparison taking into consideration occurrences of the term in german spanish and french reveals that use of the term took place simultaneously worldwide the term historiography underwent a significant change globally having become independent from the modern concept of history shifting away from the political and social dimensions of the writing of history in the nineteenth century and unfolding into a metacritical concept such a process enables historians to technically distinguish at least three semantic modulations of the term 1 history as a living experience 2 the writing or narration of history and 3 the critical study of historical narratives based on the brazilian experience it is possible to think of the historiography category as an index of the transformations of the modern concept of history itself between the 1870s and 1940s a period of intense modification of the experience and expectations of the writing of professional historical scholarship on a global scale", "title_raw": "BRAZILIAN HISTORICAL WRITING IN GLOBAL PERSPECTIVE: ON THE EMERGENCE OF THE CONCEPT OF \u201cHISTORIOGRAPHY\u201d", "abstract_raw": "This article assesses the meanings of the term \u201chistoriography\u201d in Brazilian historiography from the late nineteenth century to circa 1950, suggesting that its use plays an essential role in the process of the disciplinarization and legitimation of history as a discipline. The global-scale comparison, taking into consideration occurrences of the term in German, Spanish, and French, reveals that use of the term took place simultaneously worldwide. The term \u201chistoriography\u201d underwent a significant change globally, having become independent from the modern concept of history, shifting away from the political and social dimensions of the writing of history in the nineteenth century and unfolding into a metacritical concept. Such a process enables historians to technically distinguish at least three semantic modulations of the term: 1. history as a living experience; 2. the writing or narration of history; and 3. the critical study of historical narratives. Based on the Brazilian experience, it is possible to think of the \u201chistoriography\u201d category as an index of the transformations of the modern concept of history itself between the 1870s and 1940s, a period of intense modification of the experience and expectations of the writing of professional historical scholarship on a global scale." }, { "paper": "2346117574", "venue": "49405560", "year": "2015", "title": "marching to the beat of a newer drum cultural continuity and revival in nisga a church armies 1894 1970", "label": [ "175845324" ], "author": [ "2345922022" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Marching to the Beat of a Newer Drum: Cultural Continuity and Revival in Nisg\u0332a'a Church Armies, 1894\u20131970", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2441049358", "venue": "52423121", "year": "2015", "title": "europe on trial the story of collaboration resistance and retribution during world war ii by istvan deak and mass dictatorship and memory as ever present past ed by jie hyun lim et al review", "label": [ "137355542", "195244886" ], "author": [ "2718422957" ], "reference": [ "3127547756" ], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Europe on Trial: The Story of Collaboration, Resistance, and Retribution during World War II by Istv\u00e1n De\u00e1k and: Mass Dictatorship and Memory as Ever Present Past ed. by Jie-Hyun Lim et al.

He focuses on the nation-state, but is devoid of nationalist commitment of any sort, differing from the position of Jeremi Suri, for instance, whose recent work Liberty's surest guardian broadly promotes a more positive view of America's world role. Indeed, Mann sometimes appears to be rather more hostile to what he sees as the counterproductive \u2018imperialism\u2019 of his adopted country than, say, Messrs Chavez and Putin. He wants to inflect history with theory, but has little time for post-modernism.

Although the domestic has been an important focus of theoretical discussion, there is not an adequate archaeological theory on the public, and the study of the public is often confused with that of elite strategies. We believe that this theoretical imbalance strongly shapes interpretations of early Maya society, leading to the problematic assumption that the domestic existed before the public. Jurgen Habermas's concept of public sphere provides a logical starting point for the exploration of this issue. At the lowland Maya site of Ceibal, Guatemala, a public ceremonial complex was built around 1000 B.C.E. when some groups began to adopt a sedentary and agricultural way of life, but some populations probably maintained residential mobility and a mixed economy for the next few centuries. During this period of profound social change, the new public sphere probably served as an arena of negotiation between diverse groups through communal rituals. The construction of minor temples and the disappearance of figurines several centuries later signal a transformation of domestic ritual through its integration into a more homogeneous system of ritual practice rooted in earlier public rites.

The border wars in Kansas and Missouri continue to complicate our understanding of the Civil War. Building on the work of scholars like the late Michael Fellman, a contributor to this volume, who interpreted the border conflict as \"a war of all against all\" and the scene of \"the worst guerrilla war in American history,\" Bleeding Kansas, Bleeding Missouri: The Long Civil War on the Border confirms and extends recent scholarship on the topic (p. 4). The collection breaks new ground by looking at the border wars across geographical lines, and, by offering a variety of approaches, the essays help readers navigate the complicated political and ideological world of the people who lived through the conflict. The book also considers how later generations have remembered the war on the border. Following a useful introduction by the editors, Fellman argues that the violent guerrilla war on the border resulted from a long tradition of Christian crusading that motivated men to kill others in the name of God. Victimizing their own, dehumanizing the enemy, and fighting for a cause that required blood sacrifice, the warriors in the border region descended into \"an endless cycle of revenge\" (p. 13). Later historians sanitized cultural memory by making the border one of the \"exceptions to the rule of civility\" in the Civil War (p. 23). The editors divide the remaining chapters into three parts, the first of which looks at how the issue of slavery changed the border region. Kristen K. Epps argues that while slaveholding in the region was relatively small-scale, it played an essential role in the economic life of those who lived there before the 1850s. Westward movement was seen as progress, and slavery was vital to that progress given the scarcity of labor on a sparsely settled frontier. Nicole Etcheson argues that concepts of law and order explain why the proslavery citizens perceived the influx of antislavery immigrants as a threat. The proslavery side thought that its adherents followed the rules and saw themselves as the defenders of law and order, while they sincerely believed that those who opposed slavery were dangerous fanatics who brought anarchy to the border region. Kristen Tegtmeier Oertel delves into the intersection of race and gender in the language used by participants who tried to demean the manhood of the other side. Pearl T. Ponce's political analysis of the Lecompton constitution insightfully explores the efforts and failures of leaders like James Buchanan. The essays in the second part show how the border wars escalated as the national conflict began. Tony R. Mullis demonstrates that the U.S. Army tried to respond to free-soil guerrillas in 1860, arguing that although the army was largely ineffective, their efforts taught them important lessons that they later put to use against proslavery irregulars during the Civil War. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2603091700", "venue": "3880285", "year": "2015", "title": "university releases sex harassment report on astronomer geoff marcy", "label": [ "2779121111" ], "author": [ "1974920718" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "University releases sex harassment report on astronomer Geoff Marcy", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2200057334", "venue": "164398212", "year": "2015", "title": "emilia jamroziak survival and success on medieval borders cistercian houses in medieval scotland and pomerania from the twelfth to the late fourteenth century medieval texts and cultures of northern europe 24 turnhout brepols 2011 pp xvi 215 5 maps and 2 tables 95 isbn 978 2 503 53307 0", "label": [ "74916050", "195244886" ], "author": [ "2002139408" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Emilia Jamroziak, Survival and Success on Medieval Borders: Cistercian Houses in Medieval Scotland and Pomerania from the Twelfth to the Late Fourteenth Century .

To this end, zooarchaeology can reveal how food preferences become enmeshed into the transformation of identity. Zooarchaeological analysis from the Early Bronze I (EB I) village of Horvat \u2018Illin Tahtit, Israel, finds a clear overrepresentation of cattle forelimb parts relative to hindlimb parts. The results of a correspondence analysis of faunal data from late fourth/early third millennium assemblages in the Levant and Egypt shows that this pattern of forelimb overrepresentation is most common in Late EB I when the intensity of Egyptian-Levantine relations peaked. I suggest that while Egyptians clearly accorded high status to cattle forelimbs, their Levantine contemporaries, who did not have materially inscribed social rankings, defined cattle forelimbs according a cultural logic unrelated to status." }, { "paper": "2116100794", "venue": "114691300", "year": "2015", "title": "avant garde art groups in china 1979 1989 by paul gladston chicago university of chicago press 2013 vii 155 pp 35 50 paper", "label": [ "191935318", "52119013" ], "author": [ "2150322110" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "\u2018Avant-Garde\u2019 Art Groups in China, 1979\u20131989 .

Ed. Helena Simonett. (Urbana: University of Illinois Press, 2012. Pp 330 + glossary, list of contributors, index, 39 images.)Ridiculed as the old-world instrument of minority ethnic groups, the accordion has also been largely dismissed as a topic of historical or folkloristic inquiry. This edited volume rights this wrong and traces the accordion from its central European roots to 11 regional forms in the Americas. The text is well balanced with seven chapters on accordion traditions in the United States and four chapters on traditions in Central and Southern America. Additional chapters provide more background on the origin ofthe accordion, accordion jokes, and the accordion compositions of William Schimmel.The accordion, we learn, was invented in Europe, probably in the 1820s or 1830s, and it was in mass production by the 1850s. In its earliest years, it was an instrument of the middle and upper classes, since its cost prohibited use among the poor. Ironically, as the industrial revolution brought the price of such instruments within the reach of common folk, and while the accordion served in some ways to sever people from folk music traditions, it also provided a bridge for traditional forms to be carried over into the twentieth century. Ironically, the clanky metal industrial squeeze box also became a folk symbol in its own right.In each chapter, we see how the accordion was physically altered to get the \"right\" sound for the local taste. In fact, the accordion is a prime example of a modified instrument, and therefore it is an embodiment of the evolving forms studied by folklorists of all stripes. Like any enduring folk art or craft, the accordion was successful because it was adaptable. Although generally manufactured in Germany or in adjacent countries, the accordion was carried to the New World by immigrants and marketed there in population centers. But musicians in the Americas were not content with the manufactured sounds, and they were constantly tinkering with the instrument so that it could match their voices and produce the desired keys. Because it was loud and mobile, the accordion could work as a stand-alone instrument to provide a beat and a melody for dances, or it could accompany a band.The varieties and particularities of each tradition of accordion music in the Americas are on clear display in this book, described as they are by those who know them best. Among the cajuns of Louisiana, the accordion gradually replaced the fiddle at the end of the nineteenth century and remained popular until amplifiers allowed guitars and other instruments to flood the dance halls. Also in Louisiana, the creole, French, and African catholics adopted the accordion extensively. For both groups, the accordion was a symbol of the minority group, a subversive element to help retain group identity and culture.Most of the contributors would describe themselves as musicologists, so it is of no surprise that those interested in musicology will gain the most from the text. For those with little or no musical training, however, the text can be difficult to parse at times. We learn, for example, that the cajuns tuned their instruments for more vibrato and preferred diatonic scales. \u2026" }, { "paper": "761918150", "venue": "160669930", "year": "2015", "title": "the chronology of roman trade in the indian ocean from augustus to early third century ce", "label": [ "206440729", "2778633791", "550479007", "195244886", "181536285" ], "author": [ "2113089458" ], "reference": [ "180618509", "401683741", "407158318", "577733291", "577828419", "609551431", "623205011", "1475132562", "1576961059", "1592345795", "1774238742", "1910013949", "1985783710", "2001088088", "2013406981", "2017166575", "2032423019", "2045062395", "2048180479", "2050272364", "2069652790", "2094666008", "2122911806", "2125541197", "2132910468", "2161326461", "2297961747", "2315100875", "2316779878", "2322183070", "2325464122", "2468049844", "2480198156", "2484311829", "2495039219", "2495165395", "2521003796", "2535982196", "2587989286", "2588605740", "2746862461", "2791761995", "2792067506", "2793774650", "2797214157", "2945373623", "3023787726" ], "abstract": "the archaeological and numismatic evidence for roman trade in the indian ocean from the augustan annexation of egypt up to the early third century ceshows that the most intense period of contact and exchange was in the late first century ce the arguments presented here challenge two major positions which assert either a peak during the julio claudian period or a continuing intensity of contact until at least the late second century ce", "title_raw": "The Chronology of Roman Trade in the Indian Ocean from Augustus to Early Third Century ce", "abstract_raw": "The archaeological and numismatic evidence for Roman trade in the Indian Ocean from the Augustan annexation of Egypt up to the early third century ceshows that the most intense period of contact and exchange was in the late first century ce.

Pp. 194. $34.95 paper.Tan Taylor attacks what he considers to be two myths: that \"Africa\" is now \"rising,\" that is, that the once popular image of utter despair has been replaced by an equally erroneous image of inevitable, universal progress; and that the BRICS-Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa-are either a single block or the new source of independent or progressive development. Instead, Taylor argues, Africa's post-colonial ruling classes have gathered any newly created wealth to themselves, and that each of the BRICS (he leaves out South Africa in his study because it is too small) has in its own way perpetuated, if diversified, new types of dependency. The major contribution of this short book is to suggest-even if he does not establish-an alternative way of thinking about current African political and economic development that flies in the face of mainstream thinking.To see the BRICS as threatening \"the capitalist core\" with a new set of alternatives, he tells us, is \"spectacularly wrong\" (p. 3). Trade with the BRICS has grown dramatically, doubling since 2007 to $340 billion in 2012, and expected to reach $500 billion by 2015. However, the apparent sudden realization that Africa is well integrated into the world order should not have been news. This has been the case for decades, and the terms of the \"global system\" have not altered: trade remains mainly the export of raw materials with little change in the percentage of manufacturing or in the transformation of agriculture. The failure to improve democratic governance has perpetuated rule in the interests of small African elites and international capitalist interests. Whatever increase in GDP that has occurred has been in investment for the extraction of gas, oil, minerals, and other natural resources. Structural change that would enable higher worker productivity has not occurred and its absence perpetuates the development of underdevelopment. The BRICS might denounce U.S. neo-liberalism, but have no agenda to change the world, and are, foremost, competitors seeking global advantage. They are not fellow underdeveloped economies but giant economies \"capable of the same form of exploitation as the West\" (p. 14).Taylor ties the spurt in Sub-Saharan growth, especially since 2004, not to ''correct\" economic policies-the accommodation to neo-liberal global interventions-but to the huge increase in demand for commodities by the rising economies of China, India, and other emerging economies. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2573764354", "venue": "4789869", "year": "2015", "title": "witches tea plantations and lives of migrant laborers in india tempest in a teapotwitches tea plantations and lives of migrant laborers in india tempest in a teapot by chaudhurisoma lanham md lexington books 2013 191 pp 80 00 cloth isbn 9780739149942", "label": [ "2776971686", "2549261" ], "author": [ "2572979921" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Witches, Tea Plantations, and Lives of Migrant Laborers in India: Tempest in a TeapotWitches, Tea Plantations, and Lives of Migrant Laborers in India: Tempest in a Teapot, by ChaudhuriSoma.

These results demonstrate that the variant prayer terminologies attested in the hadith reflect popular usages that were still commonplace at the time when North Africa was conquered, and underscore the conservatism of non-Arabic Islamic religious terminology in and around the Sahara." }, { "paper": "2196338465", "venue": "173880072", "year": "2015", "title": "the future of archaeological theory", "label": [ "166957645", "174016839", "195244886" ], "author": [ "3183170994" ], "reference": [ "348056565", "416795070", "583938785", "649437594", "900507864", "1480505396", "1513162255", "1521685458", "1525609378", "1567243727", "1573107679", "1654521368", "1831180961", "1972228575", "2002710484", "2023115679", "2023311075", "2032135421", "2038039435", "2038819784", "2074005221", "2074549830", "2085681779", "2098327524", "2108248050", "2121690840", "2152720521", "2165673991", "2476859206", "2483633121", "2484729184", "2977898048" ], "abstract": "in this latest contribution to our archaeological futures series julian thomas reflects on the current state of western archaeological theory and how it is probably going to develop over the next few years archaeological theory has not ossified in the period since the processual post processual exchanges the closer integration of archaeological thought with philosophical debate in the human sciences has gradually given rise to a theoretical landscape that would have been unrecognisable 30 years ago wherein new materialisms figure significantly", "title_raw": "The future of archaeological theory", "abstract_raw": "In this latest contribution to our \ufffdArchaeological Futures\ufffd series, Julian Thomas reflects on the current state of Western archaeological theory and how it is probably going to develop over the next few years.

One of these structures is evident by the psalm's use of chiasmus; the other is evident by the psalm's use of meter. The identification of these two conflicting structures indicates a two-stage composition of Ps 60. Examination of the chiasmus within the psalm and a consideration of its two-stage composition elucidate the date of Ps 60. While most scholars date Ps 60 to sometime between the late eighth century and early sixth century BCE, careful observation of the psalm's structure and political references indicates that the two-stage composition of Ps 60 dates to the Hasmonean and Herodian periods. Building on a second- and first-century BCE date for the two-stage composition of the psalm, a text-critical analysis of the psalm indicates that the Greek version of the psalm reflects a Hebrew Vorlage that predates the MT version of the psalm. Consequently, proto-MT Ps 60 seems to date to the end of the first century CE.craig evan andersoncraigevananderson@gmail.comAzusa Pacific University, Azusa, CA 91702Psalm 60 is one of the most politically oriented psalms in the Hebrew Bible.1 In order to understand the psalm properly, therefore, it is crucial to identify effectively the psalm's historical context.2 Despite ample scholarly investigation, however, the historical context of Ps 60 has remained elusive. For the past two centuries, scholars have proposed a range of dates for the psalm that spans nearly a millennium. In the nineteenth century and the early twentieth century, many scholars argued for a date as late as the Hasmonean period.3 Yet other scholars have dated it to as early as the time of David or Solomon.4Since the publication of an article on Ps 60 by Ulrich Kellermann in 1978 and, furthermore, since the publication of Hans-Joachim Kraus's commentary on the Psalms, which was instrumental in popularizing Kellermann's argument, scholars have formed a loose consensus dating the psalm to the last few years of Jerusalem before the Babylonian destruction of the city in 587 BCE.5 Kellermann's argument on behalf of this date rests largely on the confluence of two historical phenomena to which Kellermann believes Ps 60:6, 11 refer. Kellermann interprets ... in v. 6 as a reference to archers representative of \"die Gefahr aus dem Norden,\" and he understands v. 11 as indicative of a time of military conflict between Judah and Edom.6 On the basis of this observation, Kellermann notices that the one time that Judah faced invasion from a northern enemy while simultaneously standing in conflict with Edom was during the Babylonian invasion at the beginning of the sixth century BCE. Historically, it seems likely that Edom opportunistically capitalized on Judah's weakened state during the Babylonian invasion by launching incursions into Judean territory.7Following the publication of Kellermann's article, commentaries on the Psalms and articles on Ps 60 have followed suit, routinely dating Ps 60 to the fall of Jerusalem at the beginning of the sixth century BCE.8 Most scholars see a two-stage composition for Ps 60.9 The first stage consists of a Josian oracle in vv. 8-10.10 The second stage consists of the early-sixth-century communal lament that was built around this oracle in vv. 3-7, 11-14.Yet, despite the consensus that has formed around an early-sixth-century date for Ps 60, there are some major problems with this date, which, I believe, ultimately originate from a form-critical misreading of the psalm. Consequently, before I can directly address the problem of dating the psalm and propose an alternative to this date, a form-critical analysis of Ps 60 is in order.I. Form-Critical Analysis of Psalm 60Scholars almost unanimously affirm that Ps 60:3-14 features a tripartite structure. One of the clearest indications of this is the meter that the psalm employs: vv. 3-7 and 11-14 are arranged as bicola, while vv. 8-10 feature tricola. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2335557437", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2015", "title": "james whidden monarchy and modernity in egypt politics islam and neo colonialism between the wars", "label": [ "195244886", "531593650", "4445939" ], "author": [ "2240415644" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "James Whidden.

What it does tell us is that the killing marked the birth of a great hatred between Alazais's kinfolk and Pons. The notary who wrote the act, Peire Aycart, had no word comparable to the German word faida and its cognates or the Italian vendetta to describe a structural relationship of animosity of this kind. Instead, he used the classical Latin word inimicitia, meaning \"enmity\" or \"hatred,\" quite literally, \"unfriendship\" or \"unkinship.\" By late March or so, fellow laborers were actively involved in settling the affair. On 4 April 1355 the hostile parties met in the convent of the Augustinians of Marseilles in the presence of several leading citizens of Marseilles, and unfriendship turned to friendship as the two parties exchanged the kiss of peace and sealed the contract with a marriage. The marriage linked Alazais's son, Johan Borgon, to a female cousin of Pons Gasin named Bertomieua Bohiera. Pons paid his cousin's dowry of fifty royal pounds.2 In this as in many cases of homicide in fourteenth-century Marseilles, the authorities prudently kept to the wings, preferring not to meddle overmuch in deep enmity. The word inimicitia and its cognate enmitas occur frequently in the judicial records and notarial peace acts of late-medieval Marseilles, somewhat more often but in essentially the same context as two other words used to describe hatred, the classical Latin odium and the late Latin rancor. Although the semantic field covered by this quartet overlaps with another moral sentiment, namely, anger or wrath, conveyed by the words ira and furor, the two sentiments were often used in distinct ways, both in Marseilles and in other sources from the Latin Middle Ages.3 \"Hatred,\" as Robert Bartlett has pointed out, was a conventional term of medieval secular jurisprudence used to describe an enduring public relationship" }, { "paper": "2516016351", "venue": "121755651", "year": "2015", "title": "david grubbs records ruin the landscape john cage the sixties and sound recording durham n c duke university press 2014 248 pp", "label": [ "52119013", "6791728" ], "author": [ "2650467151" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "David Grubbs.Records Ruin the Landscape: John Cage, the Sixties, and Sound Recording.

Box of booklets: maps, ills. London, U.K.: Visual Editions, 2013. $50.00, isbn 9780956569240. Where You Are is no ordinary book: in fact, except for having an isbn, it is not a book at all. Rather, it is a collection of sixteen booklets packaged in an 8.6 by 5.3 inch (21.8 by 13.5 cm) box that is 2.2 inches (5.6 cm) deep. Each booklet has a different author, none of whom is identified as the lead author, editor, or compiler; hence the byline with sixteen names, much like papers in particle physics. The only physical commonality of the booklets is their typefaces, thick paper, and fold size: all sixteen fit neatly in a two-part container, with a top and bottom that fit together like a typical gift box. Even so, four are not booklets but large sheets--all different sizes--folded to fit neatly in the box, although one of them (Tao Lin's \"The Lunar Hamsters of 8G-932,\" which narrates the experiences of three fictional hamsters and illustrates their interlocking burrows on a multicolored vertical cross-section) includes a small booklet stapled to one of the fold lines. What's more, most of the other contributions--I've given up calling them booklets--include foldout pages, have folded illustrations attached, or use the inside of the booklet's front and back covers for photos, maps, or other kinds of artwork. Because each contribution has a distinctive design, color, and theme, this eclectic collection is the epitome of the catchphrase \"no two are alike.\" And because Where You Are is a mind-boggling smorgasbord of book designs, I would have appreciated some discussion, perhaps an appendix (perhaps even a URL to an online supplement or a reference to a forthcoming article) describing how the project was designed and executed, and the specifications and cost of each component. Although booklet or quasi-booklet might offend whoever inserted \"Book of Maps\" in the subtitle, I willingly concede that maps is an appropriate descriptor if we accept, as I do, that a map, broadly construed, is as much a spatial narrative as an attempt at the concise, understandable description of the whole or part of a planet, even a planet that exists largely in its author's imagination. Although the physical form (booklet) is so easily confused in this case with the underlying intellectual concept (map), that the sixteen contributions are indisputably maps makes the collection valuable to anyone, me included, who needs reminding that cartography is about far more than transformed geometries and standardized symbols. Where You Are is a collection of stories in which both aesthetics and spatiality compete for the reader's attention. Reviewers of multiauthored works are typically cautioned to avoid chapter-by-chapter descriptions, which could be impossible here without greatly exceeding the length of a typical GR review. More germane is a critique of the editor's (or editors') goal or overarching theme, which I had hoped to find in the short introduction printed on the underside of the top cover--the only instance here in which format compromises legibility if not content. Its author is Will Gompertz, arts editor at the BBC and a prominent figure in the British art scene, whose 435-word foreword is merely an extended promotional description, distilled into a fifteen-word blurb on the box bottom (back cover), which includes a 104-word endorsement by blogger Maria Popova. Although Gompertz compares the \"wonderfully diverse and diverting ... collection of essays and images\" to the \"beautiful design [and] rich content\" of Ordnance Survey topographic maps, he was apparently not involved directly with the project, and so reveals nothing about how contributors were recruited or how their efforts were coordinated. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2238202965", "venue": "146822473", "year": "2015", "title": "review of islamic geometric design by eric broug london thames hudson 2013", "label": [ "74916050", "4445939" ], "author": [ "3043938311" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Review of \"Islamic Geometric Design\" by Eric Broug (London: Thames & Hudson, 2013)", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2280376077", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2015", "title": "stephen legg prostitution and the ends of empire scale governmentalities and interwar india", "label": [ "6303427", "2778495208" ], "author": [ "2150876830" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Stephen Legg.

The motif depicts a man combatting a snail (Fig. 1). Appearing a few years later also in Flemish and English marginal illumination, the theme and variants thereof were represented with notable frequency throughout the first quarter of the fourteenth century. Its humorous and satirical implications, perfectly adapted to the predominant spirit of Gothic droleries, do not suffice to explain its popularity, particularly since its introduction into the margins marked the beginning of an artistic tradition which persisted throughout the Middle Ages. Considered for the present study are over seventy marginal representations of the theme culled from twenty-nine manuscripts.' Of these, the majority eleven North French, seven Franco-Flemish, and four English examples were produced between about 1290 and 1310. Of the remainder, illuminated between about 1310 and 1325, three are Flemish, three are English, and only one is North French, reflecting a waning of interest in the motif, particularly in France. The manuscripts, which include psalters, hours, breviaries, pontificals, and decretals as well as a Lancelot du Lac, a Tristram, and a Recueil de poesies morales, range in artistic quality from relatively provincial works with limited ornamentation to superb productions with elaborate marginal programs. A feature common to both groups of manuscripts, however, is a distinct preference for travesty, genre, and literary themes rather than for fantastic imagery or grotesquerie. Although apparently unrelated to immediately adjoining illustrations or textual passages, the motif often appears in marginal programs dominated by monde renverse' themes involving men and hares.2 This is the case, for instance, in the first volume of the breviary of Marguerite de Bar (British Museum, Yates Thompson MS. 8),3 the closely related pontifical for Reynaud de Bar (Cambridge, Fitzwilliam Museum, MS. 298),4 and the Gorleston psalter (British Museum, Add. MS. 49622).5 The relatively frequent depiction of snail combats in English marginal illumination is noteworthy as themes of this type are proportionately far rarer in English manuscripts than on the continent." }, { "paper": "333103675", "venue": "55827047", "year": "2015", "title": "merab saul s mute and muffled daughter", "label": [ "2779699991" ], "author": [ "2704091323", "2483257167" ], "reference": [ "412063453", "568855284", "575716875", "575790744", "576299467", "578722769", "597525895", "598070255", "607023338", "634050948", "634948370", "646041710", "651979996", "655845873", "658822108", "1550752840", "1554074915", "1575098469", "1606092850", "2000161952", "2040115018", "2047300201", "2072715698", "2075581984", "2086078917", "2110515285", "2797360583", "2961807618", "2995546809", "3098841454" ], "abstract": "merab saul s older daughter is first mentioned in the genealogy of the royal family in 1 sam 14 49 merab s name returns only twice after that in the short episode of her proposed betrothal to david in 1 sam 18 17 19 merab s fleeting appearance here may lead us to wonder about her life and character at first she is presented as a princess and a potential bride for david in the end she is the wife of adriel the meholathite merab present yet absent is not the only character in this scene also involved are the two men who in practice govern her destiny saul and david hovering above the voices of these two men as they haggle over her fate is merab s silence which is not broken even when she is given to adriel the meholathite merab is just one more item in the list of conditions that saul sets for david in their dialogue but meant in fact to be a death trap for her intended husband nowhere in this proposal of marriage is there any reference to her feelings or emotions both merab and adriel are enveloped in silence and are ostensibly not involved in the events linked to the house of saul the article examines the figure of merab daughter of saul and wife of adriel the meholathite underlying the discussion are the questions about her place in the story and the very need for her to appear in it", "title_raw": "Merab, Saul's Mute and Muffled Daughter", "abstract_raw": "Merab, Saul\u2019s older daughter, is first mentioned in the genealogy of the royal family in 1 Sam 14:49.

Hovering above the voices of these two men as they haggle over her fate is Merab\u2019s silence, which is not broken even when she is given to Adriel the Meholathite. Merab is just one more item in the list of conditions that Saul sets for David in their dialogue\u2014but meant, in fact, to be a death trap for her intended husband. Nowhere in this proposal of marriage is there any reference to her feelings or emotions. Both Merab and Adriel are enveloped in silence and are ostensibly not involved in the events linked to the house of Saul. The article examines the figure of Merab, daughter of Saul and wife of Adriel the Meholathite. Underlying the discussion are the questions about her place in the story and the very need for her to appear in it." }, { "paper": "2605143089", "venue": "205284143", "year": "2015", "title": "contested heritage multi layered politics and the formation of the sacred space the church of gethsemane as a case study", "label": [ "163443529", "195244886" ], "author": [ "2650261328" ], "reference": [ "2020514659", "2033728157", "2066417640", "2072505729", "2073333327", "2075349563", "2115810456" ], "abstract": "the article analyses the processes that preceded the construction of sanctuaries in the holy land through the prism of the church of gethsemane in jerusalem deconstructing and uncovering layers of political power struggles which led to its formation and present shape this study based on extensive archival research and a field survey demonstrates how the reconstruction of the basilica of gethsemane and hence the concretization in stone of some of the most depicted evangelical traditions was not merely the result of an ecumenical consideration in fact it reflects the narrow and sometimes very down to earth interests of various denominations and political forces the study also demonstrates how the unique setting of the holy land encouraged simultaneous multi layered political processes comparing the case study of the church of gethsemane to those of other symbolic and national religious monuments the church of the holy sepulchre the basilica of sacre coeur in paris and the cathedral of christ the saviour in moscow", "title_raw": "CONTESTED HERITAGE: MULTI-LAYERED POLITICS AND THE FORMATION OF THE SACRED SPACE \u2013 THE CHURCH OF GETHSEMANE AS A CASE-STUDY", "abstract_raw": "The article analyses the processes that preceded the construction of sanctuaries in the Holy Land through the prism of the Church of Gethsemane in Jerusalem, deconstructing and uncovering layers of political power struggles which led to its formation and present shape.

Walkowitz (review)", "abstract_raw": "City Folk: English Country Dance and the Politics of the Folk in Modern America. By Daniel J. Walkowitz. (New York: New York University Press, 2010. Pp. xv + 335, preface, acknowledgments, notes, bibliography, index.)The history of the English Country Dance (ECD) movement since the beginning of the twentieth century winds complex pathways from England to America, intersecting with a variety of educational, scholarly, and political phenomena. Its shifting cultural meanings and progressive political applications make the ECD movement an ideal case study of twentieth-century liberalism and remind us of the many agenda-driven contexts in which folk arts movements and folklore scholarship operate. In City Folk, cultural historian Daniel J. Walkowitz traces this complex development, using it as a \"prism through which to examine ... the culture of liberalism\" (p. 3). Walkowitz ties his account explicitly into ongoing anxieties about modernism, authenticity, and the identity of \"the folk\" in contemporary folklore studies. At issue is some contemporary scholars' desire to view folk culture as an antimodern alternative to industrial society, \"an imagined subject from the rural past that contemporary and largely urban-suburban dancers revive\" (p. 3). Dismissing the modern/ antimodern dichotomy as misguided, Walkowitz argues for an \" alternative modern view, seeing the folk as rooted in a local culture with its own political resonance\" (p. 4). It is a compelling viewpoint, though one that lurks far beneath the surface of the book until its final chapters.City Folk divides into two parts: part 1 recounts early twentieth-century progressivism and its relationships to early folk revivalism in England and the United States, while part 2 concentrates on the postwar revival and the political culture of the modern ECD movement. Although Walkowitz rightly points out that his early chapters do not take a strictly chronological approach, they are certainly historical. Chapter 1 locates early twentieth-century ECD as part of the progressive response to the physical stresses of urban industrial society, particularly for the more \"fragile\" populations of women and children. The folk dance movement emerged as a type of physical exercise, connecting directly to the establishment of physical education programs in American schools and the playground movement. In chapter 2, Walkowitz ties ECD to the progressivist project of the bourgeois middle class and to a liberal effort to \"build an inclusive American identity\" in the face of increasing nativism (p. 50). He describes the work of Elizabeth Burchenal, one of several key women in the development of the American folk dance movement, and posits early twentieth-century folk dance as both a political response to the \" historical crisis\" of industrial society, and as a type of physical exercise infused with political and even moral power.Chapters 3, 4, and 5 take the reader back and forth between England and America, offering a revised account of Cecil Sharp's seminal career with an emphasis on his involvement with the English folk dance movements on both sides of the Atlantic. Sharp's collaborations and confrontations with Burchenal, Mary Neal, Maud Karpeles, and Lily Conant (nee Roberts) underscore the political complexities of his scholarly and cultural agendas. Among the many historical revisions in this part of the book, Walkowitz draws emphatic attention to Maud Karpeles's vital role as Sharp's true collaborator, and rehearses some of the great struggles they overcame during their fieldwork together. Sharp's dance-related discoveries in Kentucky confirmed his beliefs about the survival of English peasant culture in the United States, and in this context, Walkowitz provides brief but valuable discussion of some of the dances themselves, along with more substantive examinations of Sharp's recordings for Victor and Columbia in the 1910s.Part 2 of City Folk opens with chapter 6, which takes us to the beatnik and folkie scene around New York's Washington Park and describes the broadening of the ECD movement in the second half of the twentieth century with the influx of new ethnic groups from the folk song movement. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2202942600", "venue": "152567572", "year": "2015", "title": "memory tradition and christianization of the peloponnese", "label": [ "74916050", "2780630068", "123657996" ], "author": [ "2077735752" ], "reference": [ "267860702", "435624565", "596980507", "626768028", "654762023", "1251187247", "1515810707", "1590074225", "1826324693", "1976172376", "1985619996", "1987608986", "1988099165", "1994935961", "2004386511", "2004792922", "2007179301", "2013995882", "2027052431", "2047559128", "2050319968", "2061409709", "2087202583", "2095255812", "2102490041", "2105273044", "2307063435", "2322657775", "2323282246", "2764327842", "2774726023", "2915744539", "3166743603" ], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Memory, tradition and Christianization of the Peloponnese", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2285088513", "venue": "45659824", "year": "2015", "title": "m canevaro the documents in the attic orators laws and decrees in the public speeches of the demosthenic corpus oxford university press 2013 pp 389 75 9780199668908", "label": [ "74916050", "203115093" ], "author": [ "2015634039" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "(M.)

By Edward E. Baptist. (New York: Basic Books, 2014. Pp. [xxviii], 498. $35.00, ISBN 978-0-465-00296-2.) The Half Has Never Been Told: Slavery and the Making of American Capitalism would have been a big, important, and much-debated book even if the Economist hadn't decided to review it. Edward E. Baptist's first book--Creating an Old South, a close look at middle Florida, that threshold of competing empires and migrations--was very well received, and it linked up nicely with the work of new southern studies scholars who were pushing their histories and their literary criticisms deeper south into the Americas and farther west into the borderlands. (1) His much-anticipated second study, simply by virtue of the author's already polished reputation, would have been closely read and debated by scholars of slavery and the South. But, of course, the unsigned Economist review of The Half Has Never Been Told, appearing in early September 2014, was not just a simple critique; it was also in spectacularly bad taste. Illustrated not with a historical image but with a photo of actress Lupita Nyong'o, in her role as \"Patsey\" in the 2013 film adaptation of Solomon Northup's Twelve Years a Slave (1853), the brief review questioned Baptist's emphasis on the role of slavery in the making of American capitalism and reminded the readers of the magazine of much more traditional things, like \"Yankee ingenuity,\" the Protestant work ethic, and the readily available land of the sprawling republic. Surely, the reviewer suggested, these things--and not slavery--explained the success of the grand republic. (2) What got the most attention, though, were the last few lines of the review. \"Mr Baptist has not written an objective history of slavery,\" it concluded. \"Almost all the blacks in his book are victims, almost all the whites villains. This is not history; it is advocacy.\" In the days following the publication of the review, the response of readers--including a great number of professional historians--was overwhelming. The Economist pulled the review from its website just twenty-four hours after originally posting it and issued a public apology to Baptist. (3) Even now, months later, it is still hard to fathom an alternative vision of slavery--one in which (reversing the review's complaint) the whites were victims and the black were villains. And it is harder still to discuss the book--to take it seriously, to interrogate it, to subject it to careful evaluation--without being drawn into the wake of the late unpleasantness. For all the wrong reasons, the Economist's review--and all of the attending fireworks--revealed a lot about the many different ways to read The Half Has Never Been Told. The magazine's revolting confusion of a character from a popular movie with the figures in the historical backdrop and the reviewer's desire for some more benevolent interpretation of the American past, some better accounting of American success, tell us a great deal about the persistence of racism. Just as certainly, Baptist's conviction that the review \"revealed just how many white people remain reluctant to believe black people about the experience of being black\" and that it demonstrated \"a wider, more subtle pattern in how black testimony often gets treated--sometimes unknowingly--as less reliable than white\" clarifies the aims of the book. For Baptist, it isn't just that the reviewer was terribly wrongheaded; it is also that she (or he) seemed to prioritize the words of white folks over those of enslaved African Americans. This, Baptist argues, is what historians and their publics have been doing all along, which has resulted in a profound misremembering of slavery and a willful ignorance of important source material that has always been ready for inquiry but dismissed simply because it is black.

Rioters targeted the railway, official colonial residences, and the farms and houses of chiefs and headmen, all symbols of the forced labor demands of the colonial government and rural elites and chiefs. Colonial investigators concluded that the unrest was the direct result of a failure to re-shape economic and social relations after the legal abolition of slavery in 1928. This paper traces two particular resonances of post-slavery history in Sierra Leone, from the abolition of slavery in 1928 to the riots around decolonization in 1955-56. The first was the state-led efforts to engineer a transition to freedom for ex-slaves that would keep them engaged as willing workers. The second was the ways in which Sierra Leonean elites sought to control the labor of the ex-slave classes by relegating them to the position of a marginalized \"youth.\"Long-standing practices of exploitation of the labor of the \"youth\"-unmarried men, women, and children-as laborers, apprentices, and servants continued despite the legal abolition of so-called \"domestic slavery\" in 1928. The legislation was couched by a series of caveats allowing the colonial government, in collaboration with a small chiefly elite, to continue to coerce unpaid labor for infrastructure and development projects. The policy of indirect rule also allowed chiefs and other elites considerable latitude to profit from unpaid labor. This \"communal labor\" came under increasing criticism through the 1930s with a series of strikes and protest movements that challenged both the authority of Sierra Leonean elites to coerce labor as well as the British imperial notion that the African laboring classes needed to be forced to work. In the post-war period, \"communal labor\" was gradually replaced by \"community development,\" a scheme that also relied on the coercion of labor.In the interaction between the colonial government and Sierra Leonean workers and political activists discourses drawn from the slave trade abolition period were used to press home political agendas and explain social relations in Sierra Leone. The prejudices of Europeans, forged in the pro-slavery rhetoric of the eighteenth century, are evident in colonial racist assumptions and superstitions about the need to force Sierra Leoneans to work. The paternalistic logic of abolition, which held that ex-slave classes were in need of \"human development\" to become functioning workers, was carried over into these development schemes. In response to these schemes, the ex-slave classes and those who campaigned on their behalf frequently raised the connection between imperial labor policies and indirect rule, and the earlier depredations of slave traders. Resistance to these labor policies was framed as a transnational resistance of Africans and the African Diaspora against exploitation with the links between Africa and her Diasporas reaffirmed through memorialization of the slave trade.The Logic of AbolitionSierra Leone was chosen in 1787 as the location for a radical slave trade abolitionist plan to establish a settlement of free Black colonists in Africa. The colony's backers believed that the colony would demonstrate how the African Diaspora could be re-settled in Africa and effectively transfer ideals of free trade, civilization, and Christianity to indigenous communities. This \"Province of Freedom\" would serve as an example to the rest of the world of how Africa could be integrated into global trade systems, without recourse to the trade in slaves. Despite its hopeful, almost utopian origins, by the onset of the nineteenth century, the settlement was beset by disease, hunger, and hostility from its neighbors.1 At this point, Zachary Macaulay was appointed Governor and promoted a system of apprenticeship to \"civilize\" the ex-slaves who formed the majority of the new colonists. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2345635509", "venue": "3880285", "year": "2015", "title": "ancient african helps to explain the present", "label": [ "53553401", "185554395" ], "author": [ "1902577500" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "human evolution tracing the migrations of anatomically modern humans has been complicated by human movements both out of and into africa especially in relatively recent history gallego llorente et al sequenced an ethiopian individual mota who lived approximately 4500 years ago predating", "title_raw": "Ancient African helps to explain the present", "abstract_raw": "Human Evolution\nTracing the migrations of anatomically modern humans has been complicated by human movements both out of and into Africa, especially in relatively recent history.

Between 1944 and 1985, the dictator Enver Hoxha invested in archaeology to secure an Illyrian myth for an unstable republic, which, in 1913, was carved out of the western Ottoman Empire. The first generation of communist archaeologists was trained in the Soviet Union; they in turn mentored subsequent generations. As a result, with the advent of democracy, almost no archaeologist had first-hand experience of Western European or American archaeology. The few who had engaged with Western Europe (Neritan Ceka, Aleksander Meksi, Genc Pollo) changed careers and entered politics (Hodges 2014). After the first elections, the 1990s, bearing the bitter scars of communism, were exceedingly confusing and practically complicated for Albania's archaeologists. And yet the Institute of Archaeology has tenaciously held its place in Albanian society, and, under the leadership of the adroit Muzafer Korkuti (Hodges & Bejko 2006), and now Luan Perzhita, there has been a steadying direction that can be readily detected in this encyclopaedic volume arising from a conference held during the centenary celebrations of the Republic of Albania." }, { "paper": "2606050847", "venue": "114691300", "year": "2015", "title": "moral nation modern japan and narcotics in global history by miriam kingsberg berkeley university of california press 2014 304 pp 60 00 cloth isbn 9780520276734 60 00 e book isbn 9780520957480", "label": [ "206619068" ], "author": [ "2101215102" ], "reference": [ "2333459804" ], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Moral Nation: Modern Japan and Narcotics in Global History.

By E LIZABETH A. M EYER . Stuttgart: Steiner, 2013. Pp. 201. The conventional history of Molossia in the fourth and third centuries, as told above all by Peter Franke, N. G. L. Hammond, and Pierre Cabanes, is a history of rapid insti- tutional change marking the development of a highly unusual state\u2014a hybrid of mon- archy and federalism. 1 A relatively typical northwestern monarchy, in the hands of the Aeacid dynasty, was transformed circa 400 BCE into a koinon, some form of represen- tative government encompassing multiple cities and ethn\u0113, following the Molossian seizure of the sanctuary of Zeus at Dodona, which had previously been in the hands of the Thesprotians living to the west of the sanctuary. This state expanded significantly in the mid-fourth century by making territorial acquisitions and granting these new populations representation in the Molossian state. Following the death of the Molos- sian king Alexander I in 331/0, the state expanded further, now incorporating all of Thesprotia, and renamed itself accordingly: \u201cApeiros,\u201d or \u201cthose of the Epirotes who are allied.\u201d This new Epirote state was governed by a robust constitution that imposed narrow confines around the activities of their kings, including the remarkably active Pyrrhus and his son Alexander II. The state of Apeiros was transformed yet again in 232 BCE by the death of the last member of the Aeacid dynasty. The Epirotes now fully embraced federalism in a form that was relatively standard for third-century Greece and proceeded without a monarch, but their long-standing alliance with the Macedonians eventually led the Epirotes to clash with the Romans, resulting in the defeat at Pydna and the complete desolation of the region at the hands of Aemilius Paullus in 167. Elizabeth A. Meyer offers us a new history of the Molossian state to 232, arguing that \u201cthe Molossians\u201d and the \u201ckoinon of the Molossians\u201d appearing in official documents before that date represent \u201ca self-identifying community rather than . . . a constitutional entity\u201d (p. 78). This community and the Aeacid kings remained in partnership with one another until the end of the dynasty in 232, but the kings were the sovereign rulers of the state. This new history is based above all on a critical reappraisal of the dating of the in- scriptions from Dodona, which has in the past been done primarily, if not exclusively, on the basis of letter forms. But M. notes that because of the variety of media (stone and bronze) used at Dodona, and the variety of incising techniques even on a single medium ( pointille and repousse), \u201clinear dating by letter-form, if rigidly applied . . . and if ap- plied without taking the medium of the inscription into account, leads only to hopeless confusion\u201d (p. 29). Instead, M. compares letter forms in the same medium and incising 1. Peter Robert Franke, Die antike Munzen von Epirus (Wiesbaden, 1961); N. G. L.

However, the importance of writings by pre-Humboldt/ Ritter thinkers cannot be overlooked as having laid the groundwork for academic geography in the United States. One geographer who influenced geographical education in the early history of the United States was Jedidiah Morse (Figure 1), whose textbooks became staples in American classrooms as the first geography texts developed by and for the new nation. He has even been described as the \"First American Geographer\" (Brown 1951) and the \"Father of American Geography\" (Chamberlain 1939; Griffin 1988; Baker 1996; Martin 1998; Warf 2010), although his role as \"one of America's leading authors and religious controversialists\" (Jackson 1999, 3) may have deprived him of a fatherhood that could pass the test of time. The purpose of this research is to clarify Morse's role in the development of American geography and to address the question of why his influence has been largely overlooked by all but the most dedicated scholars of the history of our discipline, his \"Father of American Geography\" title notwithstanding. Was his work simply forgotten or forgettable? We argue that Morse's religious stridency and its apparent contradictions in his own life, mixed with a healthy dose of impolitic behaviors with the intelligentsia of the time, overshadowed the message of his geography. In addition, Morse's legacy was soon drowned by a wave of \"new\" geographies that rendered his approach easily assailable and subject to official irrelevance. On the other hand, we should not overlook the possibility that, not unlike other writers, his true impact on geography in early America has been understated and that his reputation can be partially restored in the lens of hindsight, as with other examples provided by James Ryan (2002). Perhaps Morse is not forgettable so much as forgotten. Toward this end, we examine Morse's formative years, particularly in terms of the religious influences that came down his family line. We review his travels that, one can surmise, stimulated and shaped his interest in geography. We follow with a brief review of the geography books that were available at the time of Morse's writing and how Morse may have been different. We then enter the world of religious and intellectual ferment that both energized and tormented Morse the geographer, and often laid bare embarrassing conflicts between his stated beliefs and public actions. Out of these surrounding circumstances, we examine the post-Morse impact on geography, focusing on whether Morse created a variant of American geography that should be more honored than ignored today. JEDIDIAH MORSE: LIFE AND TIMES Jedidiah Morse was born in Woodstock, Connecticut, on August 23, 1761. Woodstock was a hotbed of vigorous religious debate from its founding in the 1680s. Its settlers had mistakenly believed it to be in Massachusetts, where free-speech rights were protected more aggressively under the Cambridge Platform than in Connecticut, where some of the clergy's independence had been usurped under the Saybrook Platform (Moss 1995). As Morse's ancestors and their neighbors came to feel that their rights of free speech were being compromised, they felt emboldened to support clergy who preached passionately and controversially in a rebellious local culture, all amid the fervor of the First Great Awakening of the 1730s to 1750s. With both his grandfather and father in the clergy, Morse was born into this spirit of piety, determination, and staunch defense of free speech that set the tone for his later life (Moss 1995). After graduating from Yale in 1783, Morse entered a period of uncertainty in his life, as he vacillated between becoming a minister or finding another calling, including writing: \"The little book which accompanies this will show you which way my principal attention has been for these three months past. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2320913052", "venue": "152567572", "year": "2016", "title": "book review of mochlos iii the late hellenistic settlement the beam press complex by natalia vogeikoff brogan edited by jeffrey s soles and costis davaras", "label": [ "74916050", "195244886" ], "author": [ "2100182087" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Book Review of Mochlos III: The Late Hellenistic Settlement.

Braddick, Oxford Handbooks in History, Oxford, Oxford University Press, 2015, 640 pp., \u00a395.00 (hardback), ISBN 978-0-19-969589-8Where are we at, now, with the study of \"the English Revolution\"? It has been a long time since such a label became contentious, even longer - of course - since it was posited as a way of integrating the socio-political struggles of mid-seventeenth-century England into a grander European, or world, narrative of modernisation. As Mike Braddick notes in his introduction to this volume, the sustained revisionist reaction against Whig or Marxist \"progressive accounts\" of mid-century events has moderated, modulated, and dissipated since its first emergence, and revisionism itself \"is now being historicised\" (4).It might seem odd, therefore, that a volume with a title such as this should emerge just now. What is left of the English Revolution? Well, as the volume's contents make clear, its Englishness is a clear casualty of recent debates - or rather, the notion that its Englishness allows it to be studied in splendid, sui generis insularity. Braddick's introduction makes it clear that the volume is actually concerned with the rather less snappily-titled topic of \"Civil War and Revolution in England, Scotland, and Ireland.\" (Whither, here, Wales? Not entirely absent in the rest of the volume, thankfully, though its awkward status within the three kingdoms and four nations makes it a fitful presence). And fully nine of its 33 chapters are explicitly concerned with developments outwith England, while the treatments of transnational topics or areas of concern elsewhere in the volume often show commendable awareness of the more-than-Englishness of so much of the political and cultural activity traced here.So what of the revolution? The volume is in the - in this instance - happy situation of permitting the term as a structural presence, but allowing its informed and careful critique in its chapters. Thus, what could have been a real constraint becomes an advantage. Braddick's contributors, for the most part, rise to the challenge of thinking through a label which none of them are willing to employ as an uncritically organising principle. To this extent, the fecundity of current scholarship on mid-seventeenth-century turbulence is fully represented here.Indeed, this is one of the collection's real strengths. Braddick has wisely chosen to represent the multiple dimensions and perspectives through which scholarly enquiry into these revolutionary years has taken place by organising his chapters according to overlapping and varying categories. So an initial section on \"Events,\" which encompasses excellent essays by Julian Goodare, Richard Cust, Joseph Cope, the editor, Laura Stewart, Micheal O Siochru, Philip Baker, Derek Hirst, David Smith, and Tim Harris (a veritable A-list of contributors, this), provides a series of overviews, framed by the demands of narrative but always analytical, of the terrain invoked in Braddick's title for his introductory chapter (plus Wales). \u2026" }, { "paper": "2531248141", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2016", "title": "bruce l batten and philip c brown editors environment and society in the japanese islands from prehistory to the present", "label": [ "204852536", "2779938274", "195244886" ], "author": [ "2986557392" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Bruce L.

This kingdom (ca. 920\u2013713 Bc), situated on the eastern side of the Amanus Mountains in what is now the Islahiye valley (Fig. 1), was ruled by a dynasty of kings with a mix of Aramaean and Luwian names who followed the Neo-Hittite practice of decorating gates and palace facades with relief-carved sculpture, but whose known inscriptions are exclusively written in West Semitic languages (see Table 1). We present here the first edition of this new inscription fragment from Pancarli (hereafter, Pancarli), the first legible Hieroglyphic Luwian stone inscription from the territory of Sam\u02beal-Y\u02beDY.

Following the edition of the new inscription, these two alternatives are explored in light of accumulating evidence regarding the emergence of the Iron Age Syro-Hittite kingdoms following the collapse of the Hittite Empire1 and the strategic use of old and new epigraphic traditions by their rulers." }, { "paper": "2394210700", "venue": "30381306", "year": "2016", "title": "living and leaving a social history of regional depopulation in thirteenth century mesa verde donna m glowacki tucson university of arizona press 2015 312 pp 60 00 cloth isbn 978 0 8165 3133 2", "label": [ "125109622" ], "author": [ "2715739005" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Living and Leaving: A Social History of Regional Depopulation in Thirteenth-Century Mesa Verde.

They are all the more valuable because of the significance of their subject, James Ussher, arguably one of the most important figures in the early seventeenth-century historyoftheBritishIsles.Ussher's concerns ranged widely. One important theme comprises the policy and administration of the Church of Ireland in which, as Archbishop of Armagh, he was perhaps the most important figure of his generation. This had ramifications in terms of national political developments in the reigns of James I and Charles I and of European affairs more broadly in the era of the Thirty Years War. With this went a concern about the pastoral state of the Irish church, in which Ussher was involved with men like William Bedell, while he also had significant links with figures like John Dury and hence the Hartlib Circle, through whom he sought to promote his concern for pastoral theology more broadly. In addition, Ussher was one of the most formidable controversialists of his day, unafraid of debates with international figures like Cardinal Bellarmine, and also involved in doctrinal wrangles with local Catholics like the Jesuit, William Malone. Lastly, Ussher was a notable historical scholar, whose contacts included such luminaries as William Camden and Sir Henry Spelman, while his well-known chronological studies brought him into contact with such eminent figuresasJohn Selden and Thomas Lydiat. Hence, his correspondence represents a treasure trove, throwing important light on all of these facets of his activities.The history of the correspondence is a somewhat complicated one. As the editor explains in her lucid introduction, a crucial role was played by Richard Parr, whose apologetic Life of Ussher, published in 1686, included an extensive, if selective, collection of Ussher's letters. On the other hand, Parr was a typical seventeenth-century editor in that, having published the letters, he then often destroyed the originals, and 267 of them are now only known through his edition. Parr was succeeded in the early nineteenth century by Charles Elrington, who devoted two volumes of his 17-volume edition of Ussher's Works to his correspondence, reprinting the letters published by Parr and adding to them, though his attempt to place them in a chronological sequence was rather thwarted by his discovery of extra letters after the main series had been set in type, while his edition also has other flaws which are itemised in the new one. Further letters have appeared at intervals since, not least in Alan Ford's important article in Archivum Hibernicum in 1991-1992, which presented for the first time various telling letters from Ussher to Archbishop William Laud in the 1630s, when Irish affairs experienced a crisis that foreshadowed the Civil War. However, Elizabethanne Boran has added a huge quantity of new letters, no less than 213 out of the total of 680 included in the edition. She has located these in repositories as far afield as Basel and Geneva, while others are in slightly unexpected locations such as the Centre for Kentish Studies at Maidstone, and details of a couple are derived from the 1892 catalogue of a dealer in autograph letters. These new additions to the corpus range widely, and, while some importantly supplement the epistolary exchanges that were already well known, there are also some intriguing more minor items, for instance, a letter of 1612 from an otherwise unknown correspondent, Robert Chambers, concerning apocalyptic interpretation (vol. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2330832456", "venue": "164398212", "year": "2016", "title": "thomas a fudge the memory and motivation of jan hus medieval priest and martyr europa sacra 11 turnhout brepols 2013 pp xiv 292 80 isbn 978 2 503 54442 7", "label": [ "2779403001" ], "author": [ "2557372202" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Thomas A.

Such power struggles, while profoundly affecting the people whose lives were disrupted, are soon forgotten among those who have no direct exposure to the consequences of those struggles. but Americans remember the Spanish civil War because many Americans chose to join the fight, literally or politically, on the side of the Spanish republicans. The Spanish civil War was both a true civil war (an internal struggle for power within a nation) and an international struggle between defenders of democracy and promoters of fascism; some historians have elevated the significance of this war as having been in some respects the first phase of World War ii.Lehrer was correct, of course. A million people-Spaniards and foreigners alike-joined the fight for the Spanish republic against Francisco Franco's nationalist forces, and the collective idealism of the left-wingers inspired hundreds of topical songs. reflecting varied cultural perspectives of people from all the regions of Spain and from at least 53 countries, those songs reflected the shared belief that good would conquer evil and that singing was an effective weapon for achieving victory on the moral battlefield. The insurmountable problem for all those defenders of liberty was that the fights they faced on actual battlefields were anything but fairly fought-the nationalist cause was augmented by technologically devastating war machinery provided by italy and germany, as evidenced during the April 27, 1937 nazi bombing of guernica, a city in Spain's basque region.The leftists who assisted the Spanish republicans-including communists, socialists, and all manner of intellectuals and creative types- were unable to stem the tide of fascism in Spain, but their commitment to the cause of preserving a democratic society on europe's iberian peninsula left a powerful and lasting legacy of literature, visual art, and music. memorable writings about the Spanish civil War (including novels like ernest hemingway's For Whom the Bell Tolls; poetry by such Spanish-l anguage masters as Federico garcia lorca, Antonio machado, and cesar Vallejo; and nonfictional works like george orwell's Homage to Catalonia) have been widely read and studied for decades; while visual artwork representing the war, including such paintings as pablo picasso's Guernica, photography by documentary masters like robert capa, and motion pictures ranging from the legendary 1937 propaganda film The Spanish Earth to guillermo del toro's popular 2006 feature movie Pan's Labyrinth, are among the truly iconic images produced in the Western world during the twentieth century.The Spanish civil War also inspired a dazzling array of songs written in several languages. certainly soldiers with guitars on the frontlines in Spain, as well as their non-fighting supporters overseas, chronicled many aspects of the Spanish civil War, but most of the songs composed in response to that war are not well known today within the english-speaking world. previous compilations available in the united States have attempted to convey to American, and mostly uninitiated, listeners the historical contexts behind a relatively small canon of songs about the war. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2512732697", "venue": "56601287", "year": "2016", "title": "the thirteenth century visitation records of the diocese of hereford", "label": [ "53553401" ], "author": [ "2116749010", "2318237477" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "The Thirteenth-Century Visitation Records of the Diocese of Hereford", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2267064282", "venue": "92608454", "year": "2016", "title": "the reverend bayes vs jesus christ", "label": [ "2779989315", "29598333" ], "author": [ "2554587268" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "the bayesian perspective on historiography is commonsensical if historiography is not certain like a priori knowledge or sense data and it is not fiction historiography is probable richard carrier s book argues for a bayesian probabilistic interpretation of historiography in general and of the debate about the historicity of jesus in particular jesus can be interpreted as a historically transmitted reference of jesus as a bundle of properties or literally carrier devotes too much energy to debating literalism that confuses evidence with hypotheses but evidence preserves information to different degrees it is true or not carrier proposes to apply objective frequentist bayesianism in historiography despite the difficulties in assigning values he argues that ranges of values can determine historiographical hypotheses carrier does not analyze in bayesian terms the main method for bayesian determination of posterior probabilities in historiography inference from multiple independent sources when the prior probability of a hypothesis is low but at least two independent evidential sources such as testimonies support it however unreliable each of the testimonies is the posterior probability leaps the problem with the synoptic gospels as evidence for a historical jesus from a bayesian perspective is that the evidence that coheres does not seem to be independent whereas the evidence that is independent does not seem to cohere carrier s explanation of some the evidence in the gospels is fascinating as the first bayesian reconstruction of structuralism and mimesis historians attempted to use theories about the transmission and preservation of information to find more reliable parts of the gospels parts that are more likely to have preserved older information carrier is too dismissive of such methods because he is focused on hypotheses about the historical jesus rather than on the best explanations of the evidence i leave open questions about the degree of scholarly consensus and the possible reasons for it", "title_raw": "THE REVEREND BAYES VS.

Richard Carrier's book argues for a Bayesian, probabilistic interpretation of historiography in general and of the debate about the historicity of Jesus in particular. Jesus can be interpreted as a historically transmitted reference of \u201cJesus,\u201d as a bundle of properties, or literally. Carrier devotes too much energy to debating literalism that confuses evidence with hypotheses. But evidence preserves information to different degrees; it is true or not. Carrier proposes to apply objective, frequentist Bayesianism in historiography despite the difficulties in assigning values. He argues that ranges of values can determine historiographical hypotheses. Carrier does not analyze in Bayesian terms the main method for Bayesian determination of posterior probabilities in historiography: inference from multiple independent sources. When the prior probability of a hypothesis is low, but at least two independent evidential sources, such as testimonies, support it, however unreliable each of the testimonies is, the posterior probability leaps. The problem with the Synoptic Gospels as evidence for a historical Jesus from a Bayesian perspective is that the evidence that coheres does not seem to be independent, whereas the evidence that is independent does not seem to cohere. Carrier's explanation of some the evidence in the Gospels is fascinating as the first Bayesian reconstruction of structuralism and mimesis. Historians attempted to use theories about the transmission and preservation of information to find more reliable parts of the Gospels, parts that are more likely to have preserved older information. Carrier is too dismissive of such methods because he is focused on hypotheses about the historical Jesus rather than on the best explanations of the evidence.

Instead, home rulers developed an armed strategy of their own in response to the advent of militant extra-parliamentary politics. Having taken over the Irish Volunteers in spring 1914, Redmondites began to arm their supporters in defence of self-government. Separatists were scornful of these efforts, and it is true that Redmondites initially saw this activity primarily in political terms. But the outbreak of war persuaded Redmond that the eventual return of loyalist soldiers to Ireland at the end of the conflict could be decisive if the Ulster crisis resumed. Believing that nationalists needed to plan for this contingency, Ireland\u2019s prime minister-in-waiting resolved to use the war to build a home rule army. Initially, pro-war nationalists hoped that this could be achieved through the Volunteers becoming a government-sponsored home guard, but War Office opposition forced Redmond to the conclusion that only British military service could ensure a sufficient force to secure the future of self-government. Though this strategy of armed constitutionalism had unravelled by Easter 1916, that it was attempted suggests that late Redmondism should not be conceived of only in terms of Redmond\u2019s public rhetoric of orange and green reconciliation through common battlefield sacrifice." }, { "paper": "2549632868", "venue": "7015929", "year": "2016", "title": "an app to save syria s lost generation", "label": [ "195244886", "166957645", "2776869366" ], "author": [ "2601466971" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "An App to Save Syria's Lost Generation?", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2509911356", "venue": "164398212", "year": "2016", "title": "miriam edlich muth malory and his european contemporaries adapting late medieval arthurian romance collections arthurian studies 81 cambridge uk and rochester ny d s brewer 2014 pp ix 186 99 isbn 978 1 84384 367 2", "label": [ "74916050" ], "author": [ "2680269352" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Miriam Edlich-Muth,Malory and His European Contemporaries: Adapting Late Medieval Arthurian Romance Collections.

It focuses on the case of Guna people from the San Blas Archipelago of Panama who, in the 1940s, carved some wooden figures in the likeness of General Douglas MacArthur and used them as auxiliary spirits in collective healing rituals. By appealing to anthropological reflections on the notion of style, the article suggests a correlation between stylistic variations in forms of visual art, sociality, and power. It exploits the potential of style analysis for interpreting historical phenomena from an anthropological perspective. It is argued that there is a strong link between the stylistic changes in Guna woodcarving and the sociopolitical transformations that occurred in the middle of the twentieth century. The Guna figures of MacArthur are the outcome of a stylistic switch toward individuation, paralleled by the creation of strong political subjects called upon by the historical events of the first half of the twentieth century in San Blas. Finally, the case of cross-cultural appropriation discussed in the article shows the potential of ethnographic studies of local lived worlds in furthering the understanding of global events such as World War II." }, { "paper": "2318117680", "venue": "87435064", "year": "2016", "title": "the drowned the saved and the forgotten genocide survivors and modern humanitarianism", "label": [ "2549261", "195244886" ], "author": [ "1997121083" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "The Drowned, the Saved, and the Forgotten: Genocide Survivors and Modern Humanitarianism", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2522910075", "venue": "35022163", "year": "2016", "title": "the ely memoranda and the economy of the late anglo saxon fenland", "label": [ "64280408" ], "author": [ "2155524242" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "The Ely memoranda and the economy of the late Anglo-Saxon fenland", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2506805834", "venue": "202848731", "year": "2016", "title": "another darkness another dawn a history of gypsies roma and travellers", "label": [ "195244886" ], "author": [ "2096052661" ], "reference": [ "1916348101" ], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Another Darkness, Another Dawn: A History of Gypsies, Roma and Travellers", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2574627404", "venue": "60563828", "year": "2016", "title": "linda rui feng city of marvel and transformation chang an and narratives of experience in tang dynasty china x 197 pp honolulu university of hawai i press 2015 57 isbn 978 0 8248 4106 5", "label": [ "52119013", "191935318" ], "author": [ "2970904210" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Linda Rui Feng: City of Marvel and Transformation: Chang'an and Narratives of Experience in Tang Dynasty China. x, 197 pp. Honolulu: University of Hawai'i Press, 2015. $57.

A single gravesite received the successive deposition of dozens or sometimes hundreds of individuals. While cremations or even full-fired inhumation layers are often found within these funerary deposits, the actual role of fire is still poorly understood. Recently discovered within the important archaeological complex of Passy (Yonne, France), the burned collective grave of La Truie-Pendue provides an outstanding case study to examine the use of fire within Neolithic funerary rites. In this study, we develop a new contextual approach to bone alterations in order to reconstruct the original circumstances of combustion and to examine cultural motivations for the use of fire. Results of spatial statistical analyses indicate that the fire event was the first step of a procedure that sealed the grave, closed the access to the dead and signaled the end of the grave's history. Similar sealing procedures were usual elsewhere during the Late Neolithic. Finally, this study demonstrates the value of using GIS as a tool to optimize taphonomic analyses of widely fragmented and commingled skeletal assemblages." }, { "paper": "2335067831", "venue":

In 1661, the first British soldiers and some of their families arrived, beginning what was designed to be a colony modelled on an English village, and conceived as an outpost that would open up other parts of Africa. It occupied a strategic spot across from Spanish-controlled Gibraltar and was to be a kind of open harbour for Mediterranean and Atlantic trade, clandestine barter, and (chiefly) a base for the British fleet in its increasing skirmishes and battles in the Mediterranean basin.It was also the first British colony in the lands of Islam.The colony did not last and by 1684 it was relinquished. Although it had been given extensive financial support, and at one time garrisoned over 3000 soldiers and their dependents, it was always harassed by the armies of Mulay Ismail, the ruler of Morocco (reg. 1672-1727), who had initiated a war of reconquest to liberate the European-occupied outposts around his shores. At the same time, the colony failed to generate the revenues that King Charles had initially thought it would.Much has been written about Tangier from the classic Tangier: England's Lost Atlantic Outpost1 to the edition of Sir James Halkett'sdiar 2 and of John Luke'sjournal3 along with numerous studies that focused on the naval and international role that the colony played in seventeenth-century British history. During the 20-odd years of British presence in Tangier, dozens of treatises were printed in London about it, ranging from descriptions of battles to celebrations of flora and fauna, with authors encouraging emigration to a land of fertility and abundance. There were accounts about the building of the mole in the harbour as well as about heroes and casualties. At the National Archives in Kew, there remains a vast record of the daily life of the community, consisting of court records about wife beating and drunkenness, sexual license and food shortages. Many maps and diagrams of the colony were drawn showing its borders and English site names: York Tower, CharlesTower,theIrishTower(which still stands) and others.From this extensive record of the history of Britain's occupation of Tangier, Professor Karim Bejjit selects 18 texts which he divides among four categories: Beginnings (1661-1666); Apologias (1676-1679); Crisis (1680) and Departure (1681-1684). The chronological arrangement of the selections helps to show the changes and fluctuations in the colony at the same time that they reveal the transformation in attitude both in Tangier and in London, ranging between triumphalism and despair, victory and final defeat. Before every text, Bejjit adds a brief introduction about the political and social context. The texts are wide-ranging in their coverage: from the first declaration of Charles II identifying his goals in the colony to general promotion literature: Tangier was advertised as another location of settlement and expansion into the resource-rich regions of North Africa - a location that was near to England and less dangerous to reach than the North American shores. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2291306087", "venue": "119035484", "year": "2016", "title": "ancestors of worthy life plantation slavery and black heritage at mount clare by teresa s moyer review", "label": [ "53553401", "52119013" ], "author": [ "2409448524" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Ancestors of Worthy Life: Plantation Slavery and Black Heritage at Mount Clare by Teresa S.

An advantage in learning ability, for example, would ensure that modern humans replaced Neandertals, even though the initial discrepancy in population size was large. Although the reality of the Neandertal demise is likely to have been more complex (for example, there may have been cultural exchange between Neandertals and modern humans as well as competition), these models affirm the likelihood that cultural sophistication held sway.\n\nProc.

In these somewhat static expositions, the role of trackways as places in themselves, and their long-term importance in constructions of social identity and memory, are often overlooked, as are the complex relationships between people and animals within the landscape. Recent theoretical ideas concerning relational agency and identity, materiality and movement have much to offer in terms of our archaeological understandings of these features. This paper explores the interpretative potential of such approaches using case studies of Iron Age and Romano-British trackways from Yorkshire and Nottinghamshire. Integrating theories of identity, embodiment, materiality, relationality and practice highlights the sedentarism of previous explanations, and allows for much more nuanced accounts of highly dynamic, mobile meshworks, where agency resided in complex constraints and affordances between people, animals and the materiality of the lived-in landscape." }, { "paper": "2762109075", "venue": "202848731", "year": "2016", "title": "lions loose on a gentleman s lawn animality authenticity and automoblity in the english safari park", "label": [ "166957645" ], "author": [ "2059935110" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "abstract when the english safari park first appeared in the grounds of longleat house in wiltshire s rolling countryside in the spring of 1966 it was the first time that visitors to an animal park in europe were awarded the freedom of the road as they meandered through captive animal spaces in search of eye to eye encounters with exotic animals from the comfort of their cars this kind of park where the illusions of both wildness and freedom in captivity might be said to be at their most intense has however received almost no attention from scholars not least in the arena of zoo histories but also in the fields of environmental histories and historical geographies more widely moreover while historians of environment and technology have increasingly considered roads and automobility they have rarely been examined in relation to wildlife this article focuses on the earliest years of europe s first drive through safari park it illustrates that these kinds of human animal geographies reveal much about the ways in which humans animals and technologies combine and interact with each other in the forging of various hybridities in so doing it raises important questions about what constitutes authenticity and artificiality the story of the emergence of the english safari park is at its heart a narrative of trouble in the safari park and well beyond spatial categorisations human and animal natures and interspecies encounters in captive worlds were disrupted disputed and reconfigured", "title_raw": "Lions loose on a gentleman's lawn: animality, authenticity and automoblity in the English safari park", "abstract_raw": "Abstract When the English safari park first appeared in the grounds of Longleat House in Wiltshire's rolling countryside in the spring of 1966, it was the first time that visitors to an animal park in Europe were awarded the freedom of the road as they meandered through captive animal spaces in search of eye-to-eye encounters with exotic animals from the comfort of their cars. This kind of park, where the illusions of both wildness and freedom in captivity might be said to be at their most intense, has, however, received almost no attention from scholars, not least in the arena of zoo histories but also in the fields of environmental histories and historical geographies more widely. Moreover, while historians of environment and technology have increasingly considered roads and automobility, they have rarely been examined in relation to wildlife. This article focuses on the earliest years of Europe's first drive-through safari park. It illustrates that these kinds of human-animal geographies reveal much about the ways in which humans, animals and technologies combine and interact with each other in the forging of various hybridities. In so doing it raises important questions about what constitutes authenticity and artificiality. The story of the emergence of the English safari park is, at its heart, a narrative of trouble. In the safari park, and well beyond, spatial categorisations, human and animal natures, and interspecies encounters in captive worlds were disrupted, disputed and reconfigured." }, { "paper": "2604567067", "venue": "197577296", "year": "2016", "title": "david a johnson new delhi the last imperial city britain and the world basingstoke palgrave macmillan 2015 pp 261 99 00 cloth", "label": [ "6303427" ], "author": [ "2644491663" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "David A.

Gregory P. Fields. (lincoln: university of nebraska Press, 2013. Pp. lxi + 256, appendix, bibliography, list of contributors, index, 75 illustrations, 4 maps.)The preservation of the lummi tribe's tradition of carving totem poles is an important topic to this volume's contributors. The writers provide an interdisciplinary perspective and have much useful to say about this traditional art in a book that, on the surface, provides a life history of Joe hillaire. he is the father of Pauline hillaire, who is also known as \"Scalla,\" and she is credited as the author of the book. The story is told, however, through a compendium of essays, rather than an entirely linear and discursive treatment of material culture. This approach provides certain advantages by way of joining together diverse expertise.The first half of the book is mainly a biography. Through the voice of his daughter, we learn that Joe hillaire was not solely an experienced and beloved carver of the lummi tribe of the coast Salish people in the state of Washington, near the canadian border. he also was a diplomat and evangelist, even a renaissance man in art and politics. in the often overlapping essays, facts from Joe hillaire's life story are in many places repeated in the text. There are moments when it is easy to sympathize with hillaire, an always-smiling, friendly ambassador of his people, but one must question whether the complexity of conflict in his life has been passed over in this unabashedly positive treatment.The book would have been made much more readable had its best section, that by barbara brotherton, an art historian at the university of Washington, served as the introduction. only here, after sifting through much introductory material, does the reader find the central point of the call for preserving totem pole carving traditions. brotherton explains that Joe hillaire's work was part of a generational strategy of advancing knowledge about native American culture. This strategy arose in the 1930s, when the uS government ended its failed policy of assimilating native Americans. The monumental poles carved by hillaire were important artistic expressions for preserving the traditions of the tribe, not only because the work of carving was a performance art that linked the hands of generations, but also because the product was a physical manifestation of tribal stories, capable of communicating traditions. That is to say, brotherton values hillaire as a link in a cultural chain as a preserver of folkways. his performance was as important as his craft. What is more, hillaire worked within a tradition, but was able to adapt it to modern purposes. brotherton notes that, for the lummi, totem poles served as \"a strategic invention to record fragile knowledge that had only been orally transmitted\" (p. 63). but the importance of totem pole carving went further because it allowed for communication with those outside of the tribe \"with the objective of reducing conflict and effecting change\" (p. 54).Within this context, it becomes easier to see the important role that Joe hillaire played in his community, and readers can better understand why he was involved in political action. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2424016831", "venue": "102499938", "year": "2016", "title": "the modern spirit of asia the spiritual and the secular in china and india by peter van der veer princeton princeton university press 2014 296 pp", "label": [ "191935318" ], "author": [ "2114790632" ], "reference": [ "610982635", "1990962294" ], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "The Modern Spirit of Asia: The Spiritual and the Secular in China and India by Peter van der Veer.

I argue that the colonial project of dialectology, which emphasized the differentiated linguistic terrain of indigenous society, operated at two opposing levels. On one hand, the study of Judeo-Arabic contributed to the idea of homogeneous orality attributed to native languages, which despite their diverse relationships with literate textuality were made to appear divorced from locally established systems of writing. On the other, the historical and affective relationship between Jews and their Arabic dialect was figured in terms that stressed Jewish alienation from their mother tongue and thereby cast native Jews as differentiated objects of francophone linguistic reform. I pay particular attention to the material mechanics of ethnographic methodology, orthographic entextualization, and editorial arrangement through which colonial dialectologists rendered the Jewish dialect as an essentially oral and Arabic dialect, despite the countervailing circulation of Judeo-Arabic texts written in the Hebrew script. This investigation contributes to our understanding of how dialectology operated as a colonial science through which the hierarchical social categories of colonial rule were established, sustained, and manipulated against the backdrop of linguistic practices that never fully conformed to their colonial representation." }, { "paper": "2276443866", "venue": "173880072", "year": "2016", "title": "weapons of war rapa nui mata a morphometric analyses", "label": [ "2549261", "53553401" ], "author": [ "2443735199", "2487790910", "2281230369", "2798842318" ], "reference": [ "203038931", "564320318", "573327562", "600098743", "603498006", "617391700", "641542986", "1527788686", "1586854694", "1830430673", "1908401022", "1986442311", "1993017254", "2000727201", "2003586495", "2005054321", "2010554486", "2024020258", "2045289734", "2054331542", "2072069831", "2072978290", "2081693689", "2081858996", "2100983000", "2166414652", "2175379876", "2182635481", "2187772451", "2276921262", "2288202390", "2315400786", "2339839043", "2407451985", "3007919998", "3156220549" ], "abstract": "traditional explanations of rapa nui history invoke environmental degradation and warfare to explain the collapse of the island s social and economic structure one element in these reconstructions are the stemmed obsidian points known as mata a which some have envisaged as spearheads produced in the context of endemic warfare morphometric analysis shows however that mata a were not specifically designed for interpersonal violence but were general purpose tools that may have been used for peaceful tasks such as ritual scarification this discovery provides further evidence against the theory of the violent collapse of rapa nui society", "title_raw": "Weapons of war?

This article examines the reception of the Company in England, showing how its architects sought to link the plantation process to the advancement of a global Protestant mission. The ambition drew Company leaders into debates over the reshaping of church institutions on both sides of the Atlantic. In England, the mission became a vehicle for the promotion of Protestant \u2018comprehension\u2019, as a bid to unite the different streams of the reformed religion, and widen the fold of the established church. However, the Company was frustrated by the confessional antagonisms that entered into domestic politics. Divisions between congregations thwarted missionary collaboration, and stirred doubts in England and America over the relationship between colonization and the \u2018Protestant interest\u2019. The article will identify the conflicts within the Restoration church as a formative factor behind competing ideas of overseas expansion, and a substantial obstacle to the emergence of the Protestant mission as part of the colonizing strategies of the English crown." }, { "paper": "2547975625", "venue": "119035484", "year": "2016", "title": "joe the slave who became an alamo legend by jr ron j jackson and lee spencer white review", "label": [ "2776142151", "52119013" ], "author": [ "2635707772" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Joe, the Slave Who Became an Alamo Legend by Jr. Ron J.

Another is how Yavanas living near the Gulf of Barygaza and the western Ghats in western India came to call themselves by a term borne centuries earlier by Greeks living in regions of northern India. By probing these issues, the article sheds light on how travellers and expatriates from Roman Egypt, and the Greek language and culture that they often carried with them, fit into the multilingual and multicultural web of a connected Indian Ocean.

By Wayne Flynt. Religion and American Culture. (Tuscaloosa: University of Alabama Press, 2016. Pp. xiv, 386. $39.95, ISBN 978-0-8173-1908-3.) Southern Religion and Christian Diversity in the Twentieth Century is a compilation of previously published articles and recent lectures by Wayne Flynt, historian of southern religion and professor emeritus at Auburn University. Flynt began his lengthy career focused on poor white southerners but soon became a chief contributor to the emerging field of southern religious history, concentrating primarily on his home state, Alabama, and his natal denomination, Southern Baptist. He published his first article on these topics in 1968, and they remain the central focus of his scholarship. The title, like many, is deceptively general. The works here rarely engage southern Christianity broadly or examine diversity. Although southern Methodists and Presbyterians are treated, they appear in dedicated chapters, and only one essay addresses white southern evangelicals as a distinct group. Flynt admits in the preface that the volume does not treat non-evangelicals or African American churches. Thus, his consideration of Christian diversity is not comprehensive and is instead limited to a few pages in the later chapters where recent demographic changes are briefly mentioned. Flynt states that his central thesis is one \"of religious diversity embedded within seemingly impervious religious orthodoxy\" (p. xi). But of the fifteen essays, only two fail to include or focus on Southern Baptists, and nine explore the Social Gospel movement and Progressive reform in the South. It seems Flynt's focus is twofold: how white southern evangelicals, primarily Southern Baptists, worked out their own version of the Social Gospel in the early twentieth century and how the denomination moved from its traditional stance on the separation of church and state to engage politically and establish its values in the public realm. In his introduction to the second article, Flynt explains that his \"disagreement\" with historians of religion and C. Vann Woodward on the limits of the Social Gospel in the South heavily influenced his own scholarly interests. This focus is clearly visible in the essays he has chosen to highlight his career. Scholars interested in southern religion will find rich material conveniently included here. Flynt is a meticulous researcher interested in biographical narratives. The essays reveal the intertwined relationship of politics, reform, and evangelical religion in detail. Flynt uses his autobiography combined with the life story of Rev. Charles Bell to highlight the risks and limitations of fighting racial discrimination in twentieth-century Alabama. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2765438557", "venue": "86102577", "year": "2017", "title": "an aqueous territory sailor geographies and new granada s transimperial greater caribbean world by ernesto bassi review", "label": [ "195244886" ], "author": [ "2765507804" ], "reference": [ "635720273", "638433489", "1569768613", "1969385862", "1988087823", "1996512047", "2015668417", "2148464194", "2484726040", "2506624024" ], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "An Aqueous Territory: Sailor Geographies and New Granada's Transimperial Greater Caribbean World by Ernesto Bassi (review)", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2607300455", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2017", "title": "robert lawrence gunn ethnology and empire languages literature and the making of the north american borderlands", "label": [ "2549261", "2778495208" ], "author": [ "2186397105" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Robert Lawrence Gunn.

By Phil Jamison. Music in American Life Series. (Urbana: University of Illinois Press, 2015. Pp. xx + 276, 57 black-and-white photographs, 2 line drawings, 3 maps, 4 tables, glossary.)In the Fall semester of 2013, I taught a course entitled the History of Music in Appalachia; two years later, I expanded the title to include \"and Dance.\" Two new books enabled the difference. The first was Susan Spalding's Appalachian Dance (University of Illinois Press, 2014), winner of the 2015 Weatherford Award. Phil Jamison's monograph Hoedowns, Reels, and Frolics was published the month before classes started. Prior to these offerings, I could find no suitable works. While Spalding gives us a very useful set of case studies, Jamison ranges more widely and provides us with more context, filling a long and blatant lacuna in Southern Appalachian folk dance studies.Jamison's non-traditional academic background prompted his interest in Appalachian dance and aided his research. He started as a young banj o player in a band that provided music for a community-based square dance in central New York (Northern Appalachia). One night, the caller did not show, and Jamison filled in as best he could. As he continued playing and calling, the question of \"Where did this come from?\" started working on him. Later, he moved to western North Carolina and became a member of the Green Grass Cloggers, a group instrumental in the revitalization of traditional dance, both group and individual. He now teaches at Warren Wilson College and coordinates Old Time Week at the Swannanoa Gathering.Jamison starts where almost everyone writing about the Southern Appalachian region has to begin: countering the mythic stereotype. Everybody seems to \"know\" that it is strictly Scots-Irish. Cecil Sharp was absolutely sure that he was witnessing pure English dance forms. So go the various misimpressions. Jamison quickly hones in on the exceptional diversity of Appalachia in general, and Appalachian dance in particular. He points out the more obvious Scots-Irish component, plus the Native American and just a touch of English. Disproportional influences, however, include French and, critically, African American.In eighteenth-century America, French dancing masters enjoyed great popularity among the elites-those who could afford them. Jamison discovered that nearly all of these masters owned or employed African American fiddlers. The fiddlers took the dance forms to the slave quarters, beginning an extraordinary example of the folk process, with dance moves percolating through race, class, and ethnic cultures, each placing their own stamp on them. Here, we see the real genius of Jamison's work, tracing a folk process through oral cultures of over a century ago. By examining the various influences and their evolutions, Jamison comes up with an excellent working description of the identifiable, particular ingredients of Southern Appalachian group dance.

Link (review)", "abstract_raw": "Southern Crucible: The Making of an American Region. By William A. Link. (New York and other cities: Oxford University Press, 2015. Pp. xx, 585, plus index. $49.95, ISBN 978-0-19-976360-3.) For college instructors seeking a comprehensive narrative text capturing the entirety of southern history, William A. Link's Southern Crucible: The Making of an American Region serves as the finest survey produced to date. The breadth of coverage, analytical depth, historiographical relevance, and lucid but concise prose make for a superb volume accessible to undergraduates of all levels as well as to general readers. Southern Crucible successfully integrates the social, political, cultural, and economic history of the South and deftly places the region within its national context. Released as either two separate volumes divided chronologically at the end of Reconstruction, or as in the case under review, a combined and complete text, Southern Crucible takes readers from before European contact to the present. Beginning with a discussion of the demographic origins and environmental context of human settlement in the South, Link incorporates both Native American civilizations as well as Spanish and French coastal settlements in places that became part of the American South. From there the story proceeds with the development of a slave plantation system and British (and British-descended) settlers forcibly expanding that system into the Old Southwest. Taking in much of the latest scholarship on the Civil War, emancipation, and Reconstruction, Link provides as good a depiction of the war experience as any to be found in a survey text. The real strength of the book lies in the second half, as Link's expertise in the transformation of the New South shines through. The emergence of the Jim Crow system, continued impoverishment of the region, textile-based industrialization, and mass migration characterize the story from the 1880s to the 1920s. Chapters on the mid-twentieth century incorporate technological and social changes associated with World War II as the South simultaneously experienced the black freedom movement and the growth of Sun Belt suburbs. Link concludes by remarking how the modem South has remade America as a whole by assuming a greater degree of cultural, economic, and political power than at any other time since the Civil War. If there is a single, overarching argument driving the narrative it is the centrality of race and the \"clash of identities\" that gave shape to the plantation system and to the post-Civil War social order (p. xii). Link is careful to identify the instability of racial ideology, however, especially when emancipation, the Populist movement, the Great Depression, and the collapse of legal segregation briefly imperiled the class structure. \u2026" }, { "paper": "2611357055", "venue": "114691300", "year": "2017", "title": "a chinese traveler in medieval korea xu jing s illustrated account of the xuanhe embassy to kory\u014f translated annotated and with an introduction by sem vermeersch honolulu university of hawai i press 2016 xx 367 pp isbn 9780824856441 cloth", "label": [ "74916050" ], "author": [ "2136350424" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "A Chinese Traveler in Medieval Korea: Xu Jing's Illustrated Account of the Xuanhe Embassy to Kory\u014f.

In this context, this article critically assesses the recent voluminous literature on the British world: a unit increasingly distinguished from British imperial history and defined by the networks and identities of global Britishness. The article argues that the British world, while making valuable contributions to the historiography of empire and of individual nations, fails ultimately to achieve sufficiently clear definition to constitute a distinctive field of study and neglects the crucial concerns of imperial history with politics and power, while flattening time, space, and neglecting diversity. While highlighting many key concerns, other methodologies such as settler colonialism, whiteness studies, or revivified imperial history are better placed to take these on than the nebulous concept of a world.

In Aristotle's Politics , in which the assessment of Sparta is more complex and nuanced, one finds a critique of contemporary Spartan institutions as well as praise for Lycurgus as a great lawgiver who established the laws of Sparta (Arist. Pol. 2.1269a69, 2.1273b20). Most other ancient sources often remark upon the unchangeable features of some Spartan institutions as a key aspect of Spartan e\u1f50\u03bd\u03bf\u03bc\u03af\u03b1.

Lester Grabbe, in particular, has critiqued Barthelemy's portrayal of Aquila as a zealous follower (\u201cun chaud partisan\u201d) of Akiva and of his characteristic manner of exegesis (especially the inclusive sense he gave the accusative particle \u2019\u0113t ). If there are real reasons informing this conventional depiction of Aquila, for Grabbe, \u201cno isolated theory linking a particular translation with a particular figure of Jewish literature can truly claim serious attention,\u201d without considerably more information about how the whole spectrum of Greek recensional activity interacted with all the diverse forms of ancient Jewish interpretation. Grabbe offers an important critique. At the same time, he requires a considerable advance in our knowledge. Indeed, given many irremediable uncertainties touching the precise information Grabbe would demand, it is not clear how far conclusions in this area can ever be entirely distanced from conjectures." }, { "paper": "2737826841", "venue": "87435064", "year": "2017", "title": "mostafa minawi the ottoman scramble for africa empire and diplomacy in the sahara and the hijaz stanford calif stanford university press 2016 pp 240 85 00 cloth isbn 9780804795142", "label": [ "2778495208", "2776395653", "195244886" ], "author": [ "2737258248" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Mostafa Minawi, The Ottoman Scramble for Africa: Empire and Diplomacy in the Sahara and the Hijaz (Stanford, Calif.: Stanford University Press, 2016).

Yet death and the emotions it provoked would have been familiar aspects of daily life in Mycenaean Greece. The dead had to be dealt with and moved on through various rites until they became a safe part of the landscape and memory of individuals and communities. In addition to anthropological and psychological research on death and grieving, we have several categories of evidence that can allow us a glimpse of the emotional world of death in LBA Greece: the Homeric poems the Iliad and Odyssey, iconographical representations of death, funeral practices and mourning, and the archaeological material itself \u2013 the tombs and offerings. In this paper, I introduce the various categories of evidence and draw on them to support an imaginative reconstruction of an event that happened, but which is not recorded in any historical sources \u2013 the death and burial of a great king of Mycenae. I argue that using emotion as a lens through which to view the evidence can sometimes allow deeper interpretation and enable fuller historical reconstructions of lived lives and experiences." }, { "paper": "2760228507", "venue": "56601287", "year": "2017", "title": "the guardians the league of nations and the crisis of empire by susan pedersen", "label": [ "2778495208" ], "author": [ "2047773994" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "The Guardians: The League of Nations and the Crisis of Empire, by Susan Pedersen", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2771414610", "venue": "173880072", "year": "2017", "title": "exotica as prestige technology the production of luxury gold in western han society", "label": [ "191935318", "2549261" ], "author": [ "2774691581" ], "reference": [ "45718845", "68877018", "244013304", "420480716", "568369113", "576673856", "608399521", "1485476344", "1529458896", "1962201379", "2027545252", "2063722201", "2065425060", "2077064209", "2090938614", "2123340226", "2123484512", "2288026447", "2319121174", "2328453658", "2505637443", "2550485615", "2597544831", "2798134934", "3129194106", "3151556341" ], "abstract": "the recent discovery of the tomb of liu fei king of jiangdu in eastern china has provided a unique insight into the significance of early gold production in western han society the recovery of luxury gold ornaments from mortuary contexts shows that hierarchical social order and status were maintained through the bestowal of these items upon the dead production of this gold not only entailed the control of organised local labour but also the co opting of methods and stylistic attributes associated with foreign territories the influence of external aesthetics on local production may have helped imbue these artefacts with the prestige and significance that they carried for the elites who bore them into the afterlife", "title_raw": "Exotica as Prestige Technology: The Production of Luxury Gold in Western Han Society", "abstract_raw": "The recent discovery of the tomb of Liu Fei, King of Jiangdu, in eastern China, has provided a unique insight into the significance of early gold production in Western Han society.

In addition to his removal from office, Antipater was ordered by Alexander to leave Macedonia for the East, bringing with him fresh levies to replenish those that comprised Craterus' own contingent of veterans from Opis. Though Craterus left Alexander's court shortly thereafter, neither man can be said to have made the journey speedily or directly. A range of reasons has been given to explain Craterus' slow advancement, including the construction of infrastructure to allow the transportation of military resources from east to west, the poor state of his health, and the need to recruit more men. By the time of Alexander's death in June of 323, Craterus and his forces had only reached the province of Cilicia in southeastern Anatolia. Antipater's immediate reaction to his new role is not recorded, but what is known is that he remained steadfast in Macedonia, seemingly in defiance of Alexander's orders.

Paratactic structure in correlatives is diagnosed by the presence of a resumptive adverb. We show that the correlative use of resumptive adverbs is sensitive to both clause-internal and clause-external variables: mood, subclause-internal particles, negation, subject type, subclause weight, text type, translation.

In particular, it examines improvised \u201cMuslim hospitals\u201d that were opened in order to isolate North Africans from French civilian society. Colonial and military officials believed that North Africans, presumed to be warlike, pathogenic, and promiscuous, could corrupt and be corrupted by the French public. Yet while existing literature tends to highlight the dehumanization of North Africans at the hands of military and medical authorities, this article, drawing from personal correspondence, photographs, and military and medical records, reveals a more ambiguous daily reality. I argue that the individual needs and desires of wounded North Africans and of French nurses, as well as material limitations and contingencies, created spaces for an unprecedented series of humanizing personal encounters. In military-medical \u201ccolonies within the metropole,\u201d these soldiers found themselves caught between a newfound sense of affinity with the French public and a starker sense of the boundaries of colonial practice." }, { "paper": "2809579559", "venue": "160669930", "year": "2018", "title": "the politics of s\u016bqs in early islam", "label": [ "195244886", "143128703", "206440729", "4445939", "3651065" ], "author": [ "2664802811" ], "reference": [ "276755589", "563905601", "587630314", "606614202", "608241041", "635115816", "653482211", "772989038", "1515812170", "1556097672", "1584428635", "1642685842", "1971972949", "1986273439", "2004564958", "2009698217", "2018260183", "2029300433", "2039638342", "2042193718", "2042443734", "2047286345", "2056031118", "2070690798", "2076384132", "2078612688", "2081068534", "2089150635", "2094679990", "2144797643", "2166634567", "2198499502", "2276300030", "2286135963", "2326420431", "2327620708", "2409608425", "2481285812", "2497566020", "2519103361", "2564239934", "2600414157", "2640436488", "3145699760", "3147829186", "3158069422" ], "abstract": "in the early middle ages while byzantium was impoverished and anatolian cities were evolving into fortified kastra the islamic near east enjoyed an age of economic and demographic growth exploring the formation of s q s and the rise of the umayyad and early abb sid states this article argues that the arab islamic aristocracy s involvement in establishing s q s reflected a desire to exert power and build legitimacy despite their physical resemblance to late roman and sasanian bazaars early islamic s q s functioned differently and their specificity exemplifies an evolution of labour patterns from 700 to 950 in particular the social rise and increasing religious involvement of merchants this article places the archaeological evidence in dialogue with the literary although the islamic material is central comparisons in the paths of trade and economic life between the middle east and western europe provide ways to identify the divergences between east and west after the fall of rome", "title_raw": "The Politics of S\u016bqs in Early Islam", "abstract_raw": "In the early Middle Ages, while Byzantium was impoverished and Anatolian cities were evolving into fortified kastra , the Islamic Near East enjoyed an age of economic and demographic growth.

This paper revises previous studies of the Arcesilas Cup's subject and its similarities to Egyptian illustrations of the weighing of the heart spell. Next, it explores how exchange and consumption in the sixth-century Mediterranean can be used to make sense of the cup's unique subject.

This article focuses on three sites from the Mashantucket Pequot Indian Reservation in southeastern Connecticut, dating between the 1740s/1750s and the 1780s. By considering the differences among them, archaeologists can begin working toward new understandings of Pequot Indian survivance. That research pathway starts with a reconsideration of Indian work in the 1700s, in which household subsistence labor is distinguished from household surplus labor and labor products from labor time. This tactic allows for more in-depth, contextual studies of furnishings and foodways, in which the differences amongst site assemblages become clues to changing reservation ecologies, social exchange networks beyond the reservation, everyday household rhythms, and acts of \u201cquiet defiance.\u201d" }, { "paper": "2795641285", "venue": "117099692", "year": "2018", "title": "deliberating life and death paul s tragic dubitatio in philippians 1 22 26", "label": [ "2776421488", "2779699991" ], "author": [ "2493802506" ], "reference": [ "419362357", "575018762", "580252508", "606826051", "612852264", "618703502", "642625184", "1491812079", "1600820744", "1751149448", "2002352445", "2007982357", "2017887743", "2031854994", "2049499825", "2094740984", "2171970329", "2461233115", "2801356027", "3121705788" ], "abstract": "dubitatio is a complex figure of speech in which a speaker explicitly weighs her or his options in the course of making a difficult decision dubitatio was typically used to display a protagonist s character as revealed in her or his decision making in philippians 1 22 26 paul uses dubitatio to draw the readers into his deliberations whether to commit suicide in prison in so doing he not only reveals to them his own character but their character as well in as much as it is their inordinate grief over his imprisonment that will ultimately determine paul s decision dubitatio occurs already in homer but it was made famous in greek tragedy where it largely defined the genre the tragic dubitatio was parodied in subsequent comedy and by the roman period was beginning to appear in other genres including political oratory various poetic genres history and epistle paul s apt use of dubitatio in phil 1 22 26 shows an obvious familiarity with the figure by attending to paul s use of dubitatio in phil 1 22 26 we can arrive at a fresh and convincing interpretation of this challenging crux interpretum", "title_raw": "Deliberating Life and Death: Paul's Tragic Dubitatio in Philippians 1:22\u201326", "abstract_raw": "Dubitatio is a complex figure of speech in which a speaker explicitly weighs her or his options in the course of making a difficult decision.

In so doing, he not only reveals to them his own character but their character as well, in as much as it is their inordinate grief over his imprisonment that will ultimately determine Paul's decision. Dubitatio occurs already in Homer, but it was made famous in Greek tragedy, where it largely defined the genre. The tragic dubitatio was parodied in subsequent comedy and, by the Roman period, was beginning to appear in other genres, including political oratory, various poetic genres, history, and epistle.

For the Orleans as for the Bourbons and the Bonapartes, exile was a fundamental aspect of nineteenth-century royalism. Deprived of the French throne, Louis-Philippe\u2019s heirs nonetheless remained highly engaged with the political culture of Victorian Britain and the British Empire. Studying the interactions between the Orleans and their British hosts challenges existing narratives about the stagnation and decline of the Orleanist cause after 1848 as well as the divergence between French and English variants of liberalism. Taking as its focus Henri, duc d\u2019Aumale, and his nephew Philippe, comte de Paris, this article charts the family\u2019s evolving ambitions, divided between building a new home in Britain, and keeping the prospects open for a possible restoration in Paris.\r\n\r\nThe Orleans engagement with Britain is traced through several channels. Firstly, through their participation in British elite sociability, thanks to their devoted champion and neighbour in Twickenham, Frances, Countess Waldegrave. This London hostess played a central role in facilitating the family\u2019s interests and favourable press coverage. Secondly, through the Orleans\u2019 engagement with global politics in the mid-nineteenth century, in which British perspectives helped to reshape their own vision of France\u2019s imperial future. Thirdly, through their exploration of British parliamentary debates and the problems of industrial society. Far from simply prolonging the vision of the July monarchy, this article suggests that the Orleans\u2019 engagement with questions of mass politics was more dynamic and extensive than previously believed. Although the revised and vicarious vision of liberalism formulated by the Orleans during the London exile was never applied after the family returned to France in 1870\u201371, it continued to inform and constrain the subsequent development of French monarchist politics." }, { "paper": "2900332183", "venue": "137773608", "year": "2018", "title": "the us opioid epidemic a kaleidoscopic celebration of ice and exploring ancient egypt s known unknowns books in brief", "label": [ "195244886" ], "author": [ "2158091316" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "The US opioid epidemic, a kaleidoscopic celebration of ice, and exploring ancient Egypt\u2019s known unknowns: Books in brief", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2786519593", "venue": "119035484", "year": "2018", "title": "the yankee plague escaped union prisoners and the collapse of the confederacy by lorien foote review", "label": [ "2778944870", "195244886", "2778059882" ], "author": [ "2785983404" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "The Yankee Plague: Escaped Union Prisoners and the Collapse of the Confederacy by Lorien Foote (review)", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2801233644", "venue": "202848731", "year": "2018", "title": "place gender and the making of natural history hannah im thurn in british guiana 1895 1897", "label": [ "2549261", "531593650", "2778571376", "67805463" ], "author": [ "2916457622", "2161873202" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "abstract in 1895 the forty year old hannah im thurn nee lorimer embarked on a new life as a colonial wife in the tropics having just married the explorer and administrator everard im thurn she accompanied her husband on a two year sojourn in british guiana where they lived in morawahanna a remote settlement near the venezuelan frontier this paper contributes to a broader historical geography of the field sciences by providing a glimpse into relations across the porous boundaries between the private and the public the domestic and the official that shaped the production of natural history knowledge in the colonial context by piecing together evidence from family letters photographs drawings and sculptures produced in british guiana we seek to make hannah s presence in the historical record and in everard s scientific and administrative life more visible in particular the paper contributes to the increasing body of work on gender and science which has begun to unravel the entangled histories of personal partnerships that have shaped modern science", "title_raw": "Place, gender and the making of natural history: Hannah im Thurn in British Guiana, 1895\u20131897", "abstract_raw": "Abstract In 1895, the forty-year old Hannah im Thurn (nee Lorimer) embarked on a new life as a colonial wife in the tropics, having just married the explorer and administrator Everard im Thurn.

The \u201cCharacter\u201d dates from a period in which Bolingbroke wrote very little, and it is thus a crucial addition to his biography as well as an early exposition of his theory of opposition politics. Moreover, study of the essay shows that Bolingbroke drew extensively on the example of Pulteney when formulating his idea about the necessity of a systematic opposition party, not fully formulated until On the Spirit of Patriotism (1736). The \u201cCharacter\u201d thus sheds further light on the important relationship between political practice and theory in the age of Walpole." }, { "paper": "2802078950", "venue": "77777823", "year": "2018", "title": "polygamy and the rise and demise of the aztec empire by ross hassig review", "label": [ "195244886", "2778495208" ], "author": [ "2802580624" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Polygamy and the Rise and Demise of the Aztec Empire by Ross Hassig (review)", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2792815433", "venue": "97521448", "year": "2018", "title": "cartimandua s capital the late iron age royal site at stanwick north yorkshire fieldwork and analysis 1981 2011 edited by c haselgrove cba research report 175 council for british archaeology york 2016 pp xxix 530 illus price 40 00 isbn9781902771984", "label": [ "166957645" ], "author": [ "2164699289" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Cartimandua's Capital?

Earlier work saw Chavacano as the result of relexification of an originally Portuguese-lexicon creole towards Spanish within an immigrant group known as the Mardikas in the 17th century. Their language would subsequently have spread from their new home town to the other locations where it is currently spoken. More recently, however, it has been claimed that Chavacano emerged independently in different places, in the second half of the 18th century, and that the creators were people of mixed Chinese-Filipino origin. We take issue with both the older and the more recent hypothesis, arguing the varieties are indeed related, and that proto-Chavacano emerged around the beginning of the 17th century in the Manila/Cavite area among Spanish military forces and various non-European groups in their service." }, { "paper": "2886347042", "venue": "203378611", "year": "2018", "title": "my temple should be a house of prayer the use and misuse of carolingian churches", "label": [ "83009810" ], "author": [ "2886927299" ], "reference": [ "18767557", "167265932", "416569329", "574647954", "579591996", "585863342", "622194871", "622675317", "633286162", "653406980", "756900715", "849162762", "1481513083", "1498642788", "1544115525", "1552543225", "1974217793", "1984746224", "1989887325", "1991970544", "2039178251", "2048562581", "2089029652", "2090057626", "2094906336", "2105767269", "2137062914", "2147930207", "2152864383", "2160074708", "2183342609", "2253875142", "2320549711", "2334164783", "2970742573" ], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "\u201cMy Temple Should Be a House of Prayer\u201d: The Use and Misuse of Carolingian Churches", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2895334394", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2018", "title": "william s kiser borderlands of slavery the struggle over captivity and peonage in the american southwest", "label": [ "2776787076", "195244886" ], "author": [ "2122913714" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "William S.

Why were Buddhist movements identified as both the locus for resistance to colonialism and the central means of constructing colonial modernity? Part of the reason lies in how religion served as both a European technique of colonial governmentality and a local repository of techniques for comprehending and responding to change. More than this, religion seems to have offered a multivalent medium for a variety of innovations. Pali examinations were central to Buddhist reform in colonial Burma at the turn of the twentieth century but also fomented conflicts between the colonial state and monastic factions over the purpose of language study.

Through the Whitman debate and other early twentieth-century historical battles, Protestant providential narratives of history were purged from academic textbooks and providential historians marginalized from the academy. Taking a cue from the evolutionary schemas of religious studies scholars, professional historians cast tales like the Whitman legend\u2014and the providential narratives that undergirded them\u2014as primitive myths unfit for a modernizing society.

As a text, Ambiguous Africa does not quite render the subtlety of the French original but beyond its translational shortcomings, Balandier's book is also shown to conduct an in-depth analysis of late colonialism in sub-Saharan Africa. This era is characterized by a high degree of cultural anxiety on the part of the colonizers and the colonized. Echoing other anti-colonial thinkers of the period \u2013 Balandier was a regular contributor to Presence Africaine \u2013 he records the environmental, artistic, psychological, and linguistic devastation generated by the colonial process in this part of the world. Balandier's assessment is pessimistic, but he identifies the ability of some unassimilated African intellectuals and members of messianic movements such as Matswanism and Kimbanguism to challenge the hegemonic status of the colonial Ur-Text. This emancipative move relies on vernacular intellectual and cultural resources and is driven by an attempt to re-write and translate biblical stories anew. It is argued here that this process of indigenous re-appropriation, however ambiguous it might have been assessed by Balandier, is postcolonial for it bears witness to a partial de-canonization of the colonial source text." }, { "paper": "2800840771", "venue": "119035484", "year": "2018", "title": "midnight in america darkness sleep and dreams during the civil war by jonathan w white review", "label": [ "195244886", "81631423" ], "author": [ "2799574527" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Midnight in America: Darkness, Sleep, and Dreams During the Civil War by Jonathan W.

I had just started my Ph.D. studying invasive species on a remote oceanic island, where I would be spending most of the next 3 years bashing through rainforest to count invertebrates. My supervisor had done his own Ph.D. here on Christmas Island in the Indian Ocean 2 decades earlier. He had found me a place to stay and introduced me to the handful of other ecologists who were managing the national park or conducting their own research, but I wasn't working directly with them. Everyone else attached to my project was more than 5000 kilometers away\u2014and so were my friends, family, and entire support network. I told myself I could manage on my own.\n\n![Figure][1] \n\nILLUSTRATION: ROBERT NEUBECKER\n\nDespite my enthusiasm about my research, it wasn't long before I began to feel lonely. At times, I struggled to find the motivation to get out into the field. I was suffering from a sense of isolation that is not uncommon for Ph.D. students, which in my case was amplified by literal isolation.\n\nI hesitated to reach out to the locals\u2014a small community that developed after the island was first settled at the end of the 19th century. I was worried that socializing would distract from my work, and I was nervous that the locals might not welcome an \u201coutsider.\u201d But I eventually realized that the only way I would get through my remote Ph.D. was to reach out and create a new support network.\n\nMy first move was to visit the epicenter of any small remote community: the local pub. One afternoon, after a long day in the field, I finally dropped in for a beer. Almost immediately, someone asked how long I had been working at the power station. I was confused, but then I realized I was wearing a work shirt bearing the company logo, which I had gotten at the secondhand shop. We both had a laugh after I explained who I was and what I was doing. This shirt confusion turned out to be a great conversation starter: I ended up having that same introductory chat with a bunch of people over the next few weeks. Soon, each visit to the pub involved catching up with friends and talking about different aspects of my research, which helped keep me motivated about my work.\n\nConnecting with the community helped with more than just my emotional well-being. When I asked a new friend to help me assemble some fences I needed for my experiments, for example, he said he was more than happy to\u2014but not if he needed to do it the way I had planned. My friend, who was a builder, suggested a bunch of practical improvements to the design, and together we were able to get the fences up with much less trouble. I don't think I would have been able to get the experiment done without him.\n\nMy final step in becoming a full member of the Christmas Island community was to give something back. Quite a few people on the island played music, and afternoon acoustic guitar shows were not uncommon, but rock 'n' roll gigs at the pub were unacceptably rare. So along with some friends, I sniffed out equipment scattered around the island; helped organize musicians into bands; and headlined the show with a raucous set of White Stripes songs, complete with my own blues guitar stylings (although attendees were far more impressed by the drummer's skills). It felt like everyone on the island attended the show, and some were still talking about it years later.\n\nSince finishing my Ph.D., I have moved twice for research positions, and each time I have found myself in new communities. The surroundings haven't been as extreme, but again, in the beginning, I was tempted to ignore any feelings of isolation and focus solely on work. But I knew better. I remembered how reaching out to the welcoming and supportive local community during my Ph.D. not only helped me get through the isolation, but also improved the quality of my work.

At present, the oldest surviving examples are the mainly geometric tattoos on the individual known as Otzi, dating to the late 4th millennium BCE, whose skin was preserved by the ice of the Tyrolean Alps. In the Egyptian Nile valley, the arid climate has also promoted extensive soft tissue preservation. Here we report on the tattoos found during the examination of two of the best preserved naturally mummified bodies from Egypt's Predynastic (c. 4000-3100 BCE) period, making them the earliest extant examples from the Nile Valley. Figural tattoos that mirror motifs found in Predynastic art were observed on the right arm of one male and the right arm and shoulder of one female, demonstrating conclusively that tattooing was practiced in prehistoric Egypt. These findings overturn the circumstantial evidence of the artistic record that previously suggested only females were tattooed for fertility or even erotic reasons. Radiocarbon testing and datable iconographic parallels for the motifs indicate that these tattooed individuals are nearly contemporaneous with the Iceman, positioning them amongst the bearers of some of the oldest preserved tattoos in the world. At over five thousand years of age, they push back the evidence for tattooing in Africa by a millennium and provide new insights into the range of potential uses of tattoos in pre-literate societies by both sexes, revealing new contexts for exploring the visual language of prehistoric times." }, { "paper": "2802618940", "venue": "165492527", "year": "2018", "title": "mikolaj szoltysek rethinking east central europe family systems and co residence in the polish lithuanian commonwealth volume 1 contexts and analyses volume 2 data quality assessments documentation and bibliography oxford peter lang 2015 pp x book reviews", "label": [ "2777826127" ], "author": [ "2984560863" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Mikolaj Szo\u0142tysek, Rethinking east-central Europe: family systems and co-residence in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.

However, someone who had killed an innocent person inadvertently was allowed to take up residence in a city of refuge where he (the legislation appears to be focused on males) would be shielded from being killed by this avenger. After the death of the high priest, the inadvertent killer could leave the city and return home safely. This paper analyzes the six most common and substantial explanations for why an inadvertent killer could leave a city of refuge and return home after the death of the high priest, and shows why they cannot be correct. Another explanation is then offered, the basic elements of which are as follows. An inadvertent killer was confined to a city of refuge in order to equalize the circumstances of the killer and his family/kin group with the circumstances of the victim and his family/kin group: specifically, the confinement of the killer in a city of refuge removed his presence and labor from his family/kin group just as the death of the victim had removed his presence and labor from his family/kin group. The legists behind Numbers 35:9\u201334, however, deemed it right and fair to limit the duration of that equalization to what the victim and his family/kin group had actually lost: the unfulfilled balance of the victim's natural lifespan. Since there was no way to know when the victim's natural lifespan would actually have come to an end, the legists availed themselves of the high priest's representational function, and used his death to represent when the natural death of the victim would have taken place. An inadvertent killer was, therefore, released from confinement after the high priest died, and his circumstances were normalized." }, { "paper": "2889931028", "venue": "122619383", "year": "2018", "title": "neptune to the common wealth of england 1652 the republican britannia and the continuity of interests", "label": [ "195244886", "531593650", "2778495208" ], "author": [ "2160301236" ], "reference": [ "109036548", "111353120", "1533241069", "1546184038", "1550135860", "1979106071", "1983780682", "1989871288", "1992556715", "2003133945", "2014840192", "2026287751", "2057564880", "2070527843", "2072665408", "2093280941", "2099230538", "2116510526", "2129879863", "2145342295", "2314581339", "2315873383", "2330793875", "2479627325", "2554582930", "2607477558", "2616230790", "2622017874", "2726008487", "2750466505", "2780554602", "2794317304" ], "abstract": "in the seventeenth century john kerrigan reminds us models of empire did not always turn on monarchy in this essay i trace a vision of neptune s empire shared by royalists and republicans", "title_raw": "Neptune to the Common-wealth of England (1652): the republican Britannia and the continuity of interests", "abstract_raw": "In the seventeenth century, John Kerrigan reminds us, \u201cmodels of empire did not always turn on monarchy\u201d.

They are prominent symbols of local, regional and national identity recognised both at home and abroad. Castles occupy large areas of land at the centre of most Japanese cities, shaping the urban space. Many castles have their roots in the period of civil war that ended in the early seventeenth century, and now house museums, parks and reconstructions of historic buildings. The current heritage status of Japan\u2019s castles obscures their troubled modern history. During the imperial period (1868\u20131945), the vast majority of pre-modern castles were abandoned, dismantled or destroyed before being rediscovered and reinvented as physical links to an idealised martial past. Japan\u2019s most important castles were converted to host military garrisons that dominated city centres and caused conflict with civilian groups. Various interests competed for control and access, and castles became sites of convergence between civilian and military agendas in the 1920s and 1930s. This paper argues that castles contributed both symbolically and physically to the militarisation of Japanese society in the imperial period. The study of these unique urban spaces provides new approaches to understanding militarism, continuity and change in modern Japan." }, { "paper": "2800622538", "venue": "119035484", "year": "2018", "title": "literary cultures of the civil war ed by timothy sweet review", "label": [ "195244886", "81631423" ], "author": [ "2801472336" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Literary Cultures of the Civil War ed. by Timothy Sweet (review)", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2801762370", "venue": "173880072", "year": "2018", "title": "symbolic equids and kushite state formation a horse burial at tombos", "label": [ "195244886", "72423040", "2777798969" ], "author": [ "2489906631", "2519007445", "2632918364", "2598373262" ], "reference": [ "3822129", "95345914", "137935996", "410459376", "578447486", "600170176", "619947448", "641597676", "1540711987", "1543069387", "1558972412", "2003648616", "2012924291", "2016330492", "2043488627", "2049624734", "2069075538", "2072576926", "2081773151", "2146687568", "2167452694", "2251855154", "2255928960", "2333851071", "2488544864", "2504615157", "2507574122", "2517577397", "2625157511", "2732384409", "2752637767", "2755245481", "2788031089", "2789733478", "2921893373", "2940484059", "2993932767", "3135382233", "3206145082" ], "abstract": "the recent discovery of a well preserved horse burial at the third cataract site of tombos illuminates the social significance of equids in the nile valley the accompanying funerary assemblage includes one of the earliest securely dated pieces of iron in africa the third intermediate period 1050 728 bc saw the development of the nubian kushite state beyond the southern border of egypt analysis of the mortuary and osteological evidence suggests that horses represented symbols of a larger social political and economic movement and that the horse gained symbolic meaning in the nile valley prior to its adoption by the kushite elite this new discovery has important implications for the study of the early kushite state and the formation of kushite social identity", "title_raw": "Symbolic equids and Kushite state formation: a horse burial at Tombos", "abstract_raw": "The recent discovery of a well-preserved horse burial at the Third Cataract site of Tombos illuminates the social significance of equids in the Nile Valley.

A diachronic study of the contrast reveals a generalization about which consonant pairs are more or less likely to undergo merger, and an acoustic-phonetic study of Russian points to the aspects of synchronic phonetic variability that correlate with merger. We then use the methods of the acoustic theory of speech production and synchronic phonology to further understand the development of the sound change.

Drawing from a dataset of 338 instances, and from a language pair that has never been studied in-depth before, this paper examines Cypriot Greek - English compound verbs. Cypriot Greek is a non-standardized Greek linguistic variety, and the native language of Greek Cypriots living on Cyprus and overseas. These bilingual verbs are comprised of the verb kamno (\u2018do\u2019), or less occasionally \u029dinome (\u2018become\u2019), and more often than not an English non-finite verb form. This study examines this construction so as to uncover its characteristics and the role that each part in the construction plays; the study shows what kind of formations made with kamno or \u029dinome + an English language element have been found in the data, and whether they are all instances of bilingual compound verbs. It also aims to explain how their formation is possible since neither Greek nor English has this construction in monolingual discourse ( Gardner-Chloros, 1995 ), and why BCVs arose in the first place given that Greek has another way to use verbs from other languages. Employing the work of Muysken (2000) and Backus (1996) , this study shows that there are four different types of constructions in the data involving the verb kamno or \u029dinome and an English element but asserts that only those with the two parts of the construction forming a single predicate should be regarded as BCVs. It is argued that even though the Greek language does not have a construction with kamno or \u029dinome and a Greek non-finite verb, the occurrence of BCVs is possible because of a Greek native construction which involves kamno + a Greek derived noun. The study then claims that speakers seem to find English non-finite verbs to be congruent ( Sebba, 1998 ) with the Greek derived noun and use them in its place in the bilingual constructions." }, { "paper": "2911459141", "venue": "40982841", "year": "2018", "title": "leadership social memory and judean discourse in the fifth second centuries bce edited by diana v edelman and ehud ben zvi worlds of the ancient near east and mediterranean equinox 2016 ix 296 pp paperback 29 95", "label": [ "195244886", "3651065", "4646841" ], "author": [ "2911455406" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Leadership, Social Memory and Judean Discourse in the Fifth\u2013Second Centuries BCE, edited by Diana V.

The rise to power for this group coincided with a significant amelioration of the shallow-water estuarine environment of Estero Bay during the Warm Medieval Period. We interpret this commitment to place as a way for successive members of this lineage to transmit political and social capital. We propose that prior to the sixteenth century the Calusa, and the broader landscape these groups inhabited, were organized much like the great houses were at the community level. A series of small polities participated in a fluctuating heterarchical system, that were likely the result of political jockeying of high ranking houses at larger settlements. We argue that long-lived houses with their accrued political and social capital were in the best position to take advantage of events that afforded the differential exercise of agency among their peers, allowing for new, novel, and seemingly more complex engagements. We use this case study to examine the role of collective action for the development of the Calusa Kingdom observed by the Spanish explorers during the sixteenth century, and its broader comparative lessons for state building among similarly organized societies." }, { "paper": "2884083744", "venue": "27801547", "year": "2018", "title": "roll me a great stone a brief historiography of megalithic construction and the genesis of the roller hypothesis", "label": [ "166957645", "36700096", "60671577", "507827637", "195244886", "29598333" ], "author": [ "2758416731" ], "reference": [ "1215896481", "1765117268", "1817316264", "1964436719", "2030955910", "2053647533", "2065293002", "2105961490", "2148718005", "2170287582", "2195708234", "2200993405", "2253254841", "2315392361", "2483715585", "2494557485", "2526445254", "2606656028", "2796297207", "2796587640", "2796642102", "2944739927" ], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Roll Me a Great Stone: A Brief Historiography of Megalithic Construction and the Genesis of the Roller Hypothesis", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2772906583", "venue": "152567572", "year": "2018", "title": "building the labyrinth arthur evans and the construction of minoan civilization", "label": [ "2780756628", "195244886" ], "author": [ "328749868" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Building the Labyrinth: Arthur Evans and the Construction of Minoan Civilization", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2895783136", "venue": "14980801", "year": "2018", "title": "resilience and persistence of ancient societies in the face of climate change a case study from late bronze age peloponnese", "label": [ "120876096" ], "author": [ "299937325", "2182169551" ], "reference": [ "69093356", "149457084", "162760534", "615389818", "625099518", "627677046", "1507640843", "1544598223", "1569445135", "1589043484", "1825812394", "1953024298", "1965903777", "1966415295", "1971985805", "1988760712", "1996223294", "2012059361", "2025812575", "2032679622", "2045293728", "2045883512", "2046499434", "2057374630", "2069664212", "2079936026", "2090341044", "2103007609", "2103747899", "2105827100", "2114464372", "2116831140", "2134094596", "2173758925", "2209125498", "2223689858", "2224362246", "2238109065", "2297179351", "2317601308", "2322531065", "2327029737", "2327762863", "2329890978", "2333723831", "2336643860", "2341928579", "2412894425", "2470909152", "2478116136", "2482677293", "2487751938", "2492772471", "2497856390", "2527188311", "2549818457", "2552474710", "2591230632", "2729805997", "2736948566", "2770925918", "2779931587", "2791218406", "2946717367", "2989979315" ], "abstract": "instances of resilience and persistence in ancient societies during periods of climate stress are necessary as counter weights to simplified collapse archaeology the authors offer an evaluation of", "title_raw": "Resilience and persistence of ancient societies in the face of climate change: a case study from Late Bronze Age Peloponnese", "abstract_raw": "Instances of resilience and persistence in ancient societies during periods of climate stress are necessary as counter weights to simplified collapse archaeology.

These vertical journeys made it possible to view landscapes and geographical areas from above. Mountaineers as well as balloonists reported that their high altitude experiences were stupendous and exhilarating. They also expressed similar problems in communicating panoramic views, which generated experiments in the visual representation of landscapes. This article analyses and compares two such visualisations: one by Swiss natural philosopher Horace-Benedict de Saussure (1740\u20131799), and one by British balloonist Thomas Baldwin (1742\u20131804). Both images use the technique of anamorphosis with a circular form. With this design, Saussure and Baldwin aimed at accurately depicting a 360-degree view as well as phenomenologically simulating a literally elevated position. The article interprets the images by close reading of the verbal descriptions by Saussure and Baldwin, and also by discussing their circular visions in the contexts of visual culture, mountaineering and ballooning in the late eighteenth century. These representations of views from above are investigated as significant documents in the cultural history of the horizon." }, { "paper": "2948737649", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2019", "title": "brian fagan fishing how the sea fed civilization", "label": [ "122302079", "195244886" ], "author": [ "2103008155" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Brian Fagan.

But with declining demand for whale meat a number of experts predict Japan9s whaling will become a niche operation for a niche market." }, { "paper": "2953286155", "venue": "56601287", "year": "2019", "title": "identifying with nationality europeans ottomans and egyptians in alexandria by will hanley", "label": [ "195244886", "2777138209" ], "author": [ "2625006450" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Identifying with Nationality: Europeans, Ottomans, and Egyptians in Alexandria, by Will Hanley", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2946766930", "venue": "203378611", "year": "2019", "title": "on the idea of a national church reassessing congregationalism in revolutionary england", "label": [ "2780480986", "74916050", "172173919", "2779191449" ], "author": [ "2946402928" ], "reference": [ "381657163", "421235017", "563563738", "568577281", "585194588", "588768443", "602781298", "620851634", "633162068", "636139159", "655166569", "1207918003", "1261286372", "1484952942", "1486429448", "1491858959", "1505807950", "1506596990", "1559973556", "1563408833", "1586629633", "1589784467", "1592159888", "1601992002", "1863373556", "1942871049", "1965745672", "1987144136", "1990428145", "2003581508", "2018566560", "2048980152", "2054374592", "2061832637", "2066918316", "2083279336", "2089071681", "2089933733", "2098499908", "2121554361", "2131284495", "2287228782", "2296508424", "2323326395", "2332846897", "2335474478", "2478505128", "2487468082", "2493043647", "2495795426", "2501223420", "2506967213", "2506985012", "2560316023", "2588154369", "2597809543", "2604257318", "2604472197", "2741309468", "2900100939", "2977416783", "3119270662", "3154600302", "3179873444" ], "abstract": "in 1641 the congregational minister thomas goodwin delivered a series of sermons to his independent church in london expounding the letter to the ephesians in characteristically meticulous detail goodwin had recently returned to england after a brief but formative period of religious exile in the netherlands and as the sundays passed his auditors were surely moved by the oratory of a speaker so blessed with a rich invention and a solid and exact judgment the minister s breadth was equally impressive the sermons opened up a cornucopia of christian themes flowing from one topic to the next as goodwin s capacious mind found stimulus in the scriptural text seemingly eager to follow every possible digression application and excursus goodwin s unhurried pace required thirty six sermons simply to exhaust the epistle s first chapter and yet amid this abundance of subject matter one issue in particular arrested goodwin s attention while delivering his thirty fifth discourse on ephesians goodwin paused to consider what he described as the great question of these times and alternatively the great controversy of the times by the middle of 1641 goodwin s world was experiencing an unprecedented upheaval england had been invaded by scottish covenanters the archbishop of canterbury had been arrested and imprisoned and the king had been forced to call a parliament he would be unable to dissolve yet goodwin s great controversy turned not upon political or cultural convulsion but rather upon a seemingly obscure point of ecclesiastical polity a question not often considered by modern historians and even less often fully appreciated the great question of these times said goodwin was whether yea or no many congregations many churches united in one may not be called one particular church what did this strangely worded question mean to goodwin and his hearers and why did the future president of magdalen college and religious adviser to the lord protector deem this rather specific query the very hinge upon which the nation s future turned to answer these questions we must consider how the early modern english mind understood the idea of a national church for though he does not explicitly invoke the term it was as we will see a concept embedded at the very center of goodwin s great controversy", "title_raw": "On the Idea of a National Church: Reassessing Congregationalism in Revolutionary England", "abstract_raw": "In 1641, the Congregational minister Thomas Goodwin delivered a series of sermons to his independent church in London, expounding the letter to the Ephesians in characteristically meticulous detail. Goodwin had recently returned to England after a brief but formative period of religious exile in the Netherlands, and as the Sundays passed, his auditors were surely moved by the oratory of a speaker so \u201cblessed with a rich invention and a solid and exact judgment.\u201d The minister's breadth was equally impressive. The sermons opened up a cornucopia of Christian themes, flowing from one topic to the next as Goodwin's capacious mind found stimulus in the scriptural text. Seemingly eager to follow every possible digression, application, and excursus, Goodwin's unhurried pace required thirty-six sermons simply to exhaust the epistle's first chapter. And yet, amid this abundance of subject matter, one issue in particular arrested Goodwin's attention. While delivering his thirty-fifth discourse on Ephesians, Goodwin paused to consider what he described as \u201cthe Great question of these times\u201d and, alternatively, \u201cthe great Controversy of the times.\u201d By the middle of 1641, Goodwin's world was experiencing an unprecedented upheaval\u2014England had been invaded by Scottish covenanters, the archbishop of Canterbury had been arrested and imprisoned, and the king had been forced to call a parliament he would be unable to dissolve. Yet Goodwin's \u201cgreat Controversy\u201d turned not upon political or cultural convulsion but rather upon a seemingly obscure point of ecclesiastical polity, a question not often considered by modern historians and even less often fully appreciated: \u201cthe great Question of these times,\u201d said Goodwin, was \u201cwhether yea or no .\u00a0.\u00a0. many congregations, many Churches united in one may not be called one particular Church.\u201d What did this strangely worded question mean to Goodwin and his hearers, and why did the future president of Magdalen College and religious adviser to the Lord Protector deem this rather specific query the very hinge upon which the nation's future turned? To answer these questions, we must consider how the early modern English mind understood the idea of a \u201cnational church\u201d\u2014for though he does not explicitly invoke the term, it was, as we will see, a concept embedded at the very center of Goodwin's \u201cgreat Controversy.\u201d" }, { "paper": "2944071637", "venue": "197577296", "year": "2019", "title": "douglas m haynes fit to practice empire race gender and the making of british medicine 1850 1980 rochester studies in medical history 42 new york university of rochester press 2017 pp 246 99 00 cloth", "label": [ "2778495208" ], "author": [ "2944674626" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Douglas M.

This quote from E.T. Leeds, a pioneer of Anglo-Saxon archaeology during the first half of the twentieth century, was inspired by his excavation of settlement remains at Sutton Courtenay, then in Berkshire. Leeds's excavations were actually a breakthrough moment, resulting in the first identification of early medieval settlement structures other than those associated with ecclesiastical sites. In spite of this, the frustration and disappointment with the character and quality of the Sutton Courtenay site are all too apparent in Leeds's assessment. As an expert in Anglo-Saxon artwork, how could he reconcile the skill and craft of fine metalwork, with the ephemeral and impoverished settlement with which he was now dealing? Likewise, where were the great charismatic halls of monumental construction that populated such literary sources as Beowulf ? The excavation of the graves of Sutton Hoo, two years after investigations at Sutton Courtney came to a close, served only to amplify the disparity between settlement and burial archaeology\u2014put simply, burials were viewed as richer, grander and far more interesting." }, { "paper": "2948141890", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2019", "title": "john h hanson the ahmadiyya in the gold coast muslim cosmopolitans in the british empire", "label": [ "501832835", "195244886" ], "author": [ "2396532509" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "John H.

This study documents and interprets the cultural systems influencing shifts in identity during maturation in hunter-gatherers from Point Hope, Alaska through archaeological mortuary practices. Grave goods, body position, body orientation, and burial depth (underground versus surface) were recorded for Ipiutak (1500\u20131100 BP) and Tigara (800\u2013400 BP) cultures. Age was estimated using tooth formation. No age differences in burial depth were found, likely reflecting environmental constraints. Changes in body orientation, body position, and grave-good allocation were found between three and four years with another increase in grave-good allocation after age six. A larger age range of individuals without grave goods was found at Tigara. Changes in bodily orientation and position likely reflect beliefs surrounding the soul. The initial presence of animal implements may represent gifting of amulets, while increases in these items at later ages indicate continued maturation. Differences in the age ranges of individuals without animal implements between the two sites may reflect stronger delineations of social prestige at Ipiutak. These findings hint at the complex relational pathways associated with the formation of identity in prehistoric hunter-gatherer communities." }, { "paper": "2972094503", "venue": "3880285", "year": "2019", "title": "genome of nearly 5000 year old woman links modern indians to ancient civilization", "label": [ "195244886" ], "author": [ "2476458194" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Genome of nearly 5000-year-old woman links modern Indians to ancient civilization", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2944246760", "venue": "197577296", "year": "2019", "title": "radical steele popular politics and the limits of authority", "label": [ "2779473644" ], "author": [ "2944576715" ], "reference": [ "80118670", "571597432", "628489732", "640276985", "973454186", "1497425735", "1527672157", "1599914884", "2005844013", "2027798311", "2052765739", "2074277259", "2076227450", "2078171780", "2122163025", "2166042810", "2313899054", "2320693273", "2494756571", "2571295395" ], "abstract": "in modern critical imagination richard steele is almost always seen as joseph addison s friend and collaborator as half of the periodical essay writing team devoted to the promotion of civility urbanity and a moral and well mannered lifestyle scholars focus almost exclusively on the tatler the spectator and steele s sentimental drama the conscious lovers 1722 virtually ignoring his substantial canon of party journalism and pamphlets partly because of steele s bitter and extensive quarrel with jonathan swift or because most scholars assume that swift got the best of him he is now rarely taken seriously as a political player in late stuart and early hanoverian england this essay focuses on steele the party writer and especially on his attitude toward religio political authority and the sanctity of vox populi though steele is now described as like addison not so enthusiastic about the potential for public politics he was for excellent reasons regarded by contemporaries as a writer not only trying to politicize the people but actually succeeding in doing so this essay attempts to recontextualize steele s polemical contributions he has been read alongside addison and other whig wits but he rarely figures in discussions of the history of political ideas in early eighteenth century england in discussions of debates about authority resistance and the nature of obligation about public religion and liberty of conscience the political implications of heterodoxy and the use of reason as a challenge to dogmatic clerical authority", "title_raw": "Radical Steele: Popular Politics and the Limits of Authority", "abstract_raw": "In modern critical imagination, Richard Steele is almost always seen as Joseph Addison's friend and collaborator, as half of the periodical essay-writing team devoted to the promotion of civility, urbanity, and a moral and well-mannered lifestyle.

Partly because of Steele's bitter and extensive quarrel with Jonathan Swift\u2014or because most scholars assume that Swift got the best of him\u2014he is now rarely taken seriously as a political player in late Stuart and early Hanoverian England. This essay focuses on Steele the party writer\u2014and especially on his attitude toward religio-political authority and the sanctity of vox populi . Though Steele is now described as (like Addison) \u201cnot so enthusiastic about the potential for public politics,\u201d he was for excellent reasons regarded by contemporaries as a writer not only trying to politicize the people but actually succeeding in doing so. This essay attempts to recontextualize Steele's polemical contributions; he has been read alongside Addison and other Whig wits, but he rarely figures in discussions of the history of political ideas in early eighteenth-century England, in discussions of debates about authority, resistance, and the nature of obligation, about public religion and liberty of conscience, the political implications of heterodoxy, and the use of reason as a challenge to dogmatic clerical authority." }, { "paper": "2963952069", "venue": "77777823", "year": "2019", "title": "urban slavery in colonial mexico puebla de los angeles 1531 1706 by pablo miguel sierra silva review", "label": [ "2549261", "531593650" ], "author": [ "2062022751" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Urban Slavery in Colonial Mexico: Puebla de los \u00c1ngeles, 1531\u20131706 by Pablo Miguel Sierra Silva (review)", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2986402654", "venue": "36953782", "year": "2019", "title": "chronicling the merovingians in hebrew the early medieval chapters of yosef ha kohen s divrei hayamim", "label": [ "195244886", "150152722", "91304198", "29598333", "143128703" ], "author": [ "2734894418" ], "reference": [ "182309169", "359726015", "416105938", "561144871", "564734155", "583085822", "589597523", "591321077", "601294910", "657172439", "1435428499", "1483346592", "1509810791", "1520177815", "1520723488", "1535125622", "1563533614", "1564261532", "1970234494", "2001180548", "2015393795", "2018196723", "2024664682", "2035911494", "2048562581", "2149643804", "2209545707", "2314584723", "2330602296", "2505165185", "2529771759", "2766882848", "2774304057", "2782305428", "2786239017", "2796002249", "2796753000", "2797774349", "2804201490", "2903908923", "2953714157", "3110032070", "3111981756" ], "abstract": "yosef ha kohen 1496 ca 1575 was a jewish italian physician and intellectual who in 1554 published a chronicle in hebrew titled sefer divrei hayamim lemalkei tzarfat ulemalkei beit otoman hatogar or the book of histories of the kings of france and of the kings of ottoman turkey it was as its name suggests a history told from the perspective of two nations the french and the turks ha kohen begins his narrative with a discussion of the legendary origins of the franks and the history of their first royal dynasty the merovingians this composition is unique among late medieval and early modern jewish works of historiography for its universal scope and even more so for its treatment of early medieval history for this part of the work ha kohen relied extensively on non jewish works which themselves relied on still earlier chronicles composed throughout the early middle ages ha kohen thus became a unique link in a long chain of chroniclers who worked and adopted merovingian material to suit their authorial agendas this article considers how the telling of merovingian history was transformed in the process especially as it was adapted for a sixteenth century jewish audience", "title_raw": "Chronicling the Merovingians in Hebrew: The Early Medieval Chapters of Yosef Ha-Kohen's Divrei Hayamim", "abstract_raw": "yosef ha-kohen (1496\u2013ca. 1575) was a jewish italian physician and intellectual who in 1554 published a chronicle in hebrew titled sefer divrei hayamim lemalkei tzarfat ulemalkei beit otoman hatogar , or the book of histories of the kings of france and of the kings of ottoman turkey . it was, as its name suggests, a history told from the perspective of two nations, the french and the turks. ha-kohen begins his narrative with a discussion of the legendary origins of the franks and the history of their first royal dynasty, the merovingians. this composition is unique among late medieval and early modern jewish works of historiography for its universal scope, and even more so for its treatment of early medieval history . for this part of the work, ha-kohen relied extensively on non-jewish works, which themselves relied on still earlier chronicles composed throughout the early middle ages . ha-kohen thus became a unique link in a long chain of chroniclers who worked and adopted merovingian material to suit their authorial agendas. this article considers how the telling of merovingian history was transformed in the process, especially as it was adapted for a sixteenth-century jewish audience." }, { "paper": "2946365025", "venue": "119035484", "year": "2019", "title": "race place and memory deep currents in wilmington north carolina by margaret m mulrooney review", "label": [ "166957645" ], "author": [ "2945260094" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Race, Place, and Memory: Deep Currents in Wilmington, North Carolina by Margaret M.

Archaeological demography as a tool for gender archaeology also permits a move away from the female empiricism of simply adding women into archaeological narratives, to provide an alternative framework for the analysis of gender roles and practices.

Framing them as archives, women mobilize these collections as central elements in a larger, ongoing Kurdish project of historical critique, which seeks to resist hegemonic state narratives that have long denied and marginalized Kurdish voices. While recognizing the critical intervention such archives make, the article contends that, to be heard as \"history\" with a legitimate claim to authority, subaltern voices often have to rely on the very hegemonic forms, genres, and discourses they set out to challenge. This means that subaltern projects of historical critique walk a fine line between critique and complicity, an insight that nuances narratives that would approach subaltern voices predominantly from a perspective of resistance. At the same time, this article argues that a more complete picture of subaltern archives requires us to attend to the voices they contain not just as metaphors for resistance or political representation but also as acoustic objects that have social effects because of the way they sound. By outlining the affective qualities that voice recordings held for the Kurdish women who archived them, the article shows how their collections participated in carving out specific, gendered subject positions as well as forging a broader Kurdish sociality. Paying attention to history's \"acoustic register\" (Hunt 2008), this suggests, promises to open up perspectives on subaltern historiography that go beyond binary frameworks of resistance and domination, critique and complicity." }, { "paper": "2904507792", "venue": "31769938", "year": "2019", "title": "the political bible in early modern england by kevin killeen cambridge studies in early modern british history pp xii 310 cambridge new york cambridge university press 2017 75 978 1 107 10797 7", "label": [ "74916050" ], "author": [ "2904384008" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "The political Bible in early modern England.

A scenario well known to Beowulf scholars alleges that after Beowulf has slain the monsters and gone home, Hrothulf, nephew of the Danish king Hrothgar, will murder prince Hrethric to gain the throne when the old king dies. This story, that many Anglo-Saxonists assume is integral to the ancient legend of these kings, is a modern misreading of the poet's allusions to events associated with the Scylding dynasty - a legendary history that the poet arguably takes care to follow. The present essay, in two parts, first shows how the idea of Hrothulf's treachery arose and became canonical under the influence of prestigious English and American scholars, then finds fault with this idea, refuting its proof from Saxo Grammaticus and showing how some Anglo-Saxonists have doubted that Beowulf supports an interpretation making Hrothulf a murderer. But when the poet's allusions to future treachery are ambiguous, at least for modern readers, in order to exonerate Hrothulf fully one must go to traditions about the Scylding dynasty outside the poem. Scandinavian regnal lists (including one that Saxo himself incorporates) consistently contradict the event the Saxo passage has been used to prove, as they agree on a sequence of Scylding rulers with names corresponding to those of persons in Beowulf. Attention to this traditional sequence exposes Hrothulf's murder of Hrethric as a logical impossibility. Moreover, the early medieval method of selecting rulers suggests that neither did Hrothulf usurp the throne of Denmark. In sum, careful scrutiny of the best Scandinavian evidence and rejection of the worst reveals Beowulf's treacherous Hrothulf to be a scholarly fantasy." }, { "paper": "2987474102", "venue": "119035484", "year": "2019", "title": "sanctifying slavery and politics in south carolina the life of the reverend alexander garden 1685 1756 by fred e witzig review", "label": [ "195244886" ], "author": [ "2644033112" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Sanctifying Slavery and Politics in South Carolina: The Life of the Reverend Alexander Garden, 1685\u20131756 by Fred E.

Some, however, question whether the symmetry seen in many Acheulean bifaces is intentional at all, with suggestions that it is merely the result of a bias in hominin perception or an inevitable consequence of bifacial flaking. In this paper we address the issue of intention in biface symmetry. First, we use transmission chain experiments designed to track symmetry trends in the replication of biface outlines. Secondly, we use archaeological data to assess the symmetry of Acheulean bifaces from British, East African and Indian assemblages in relation to reduction intensity; the degree of bifaciality; and the symmetry of four Middle Palaeolithic bifacial core assemblages.

As professional miracle-workers, pawangs were employed to spearhead a broad range of socio-economic activities in western Malaya. As pivots of cults joined by Malay peasants, pawangs were venerated as heirs of agrarian prophets and saints from earlier Islamic periods, and esteemed for their fertility rituals and miracles in contemporary forests and ricefields. This article analyses the elaborate Islamic genealogies of pawangs and popular historical traditions that were recorded in these texts, and investigates how these documents were informative about the religio-economic sensibilities of cultivators. This article also pays particular attention to how pawangs negotiated with a variety of Islamic and African spirits in Malayan forests, to lead forest clearing and rice production and to mobilize labourers. It further presents explorations into the social and spiritual cosmopolitanism of pawangs and peasants upon the modern Malay frontier, whose labour and connected histories are yet to be written." }, { "paper": "2966585982", "venue": "86102577", "year": "2019", "title": "reflections on settler colonialism the hemispheric americas and chattel slavery", "label": [ "531593650", "195244886" ], "author": [ "2170443745" ], "reference": [ "414425044", "1589200216", "1988499468", "2018276495", "2018916914", "2030850143", "2083815151", "2293901324", "2321040462", "2324941729", "2481263035", "2604556219", "2672082960", "2762897792", "2890488299" ], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Reflections on Settler Colonialism, the Hemispheric Americas, and Chattel Slavery", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2987840168", "venue": "94236332", "year": "2019", "title": "slow protest in the occupation of cambodia s white building", "label": [ "2549261" ], "author": [ "2988759960" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Slow Protest in the Occupation of Cambodia\u2019s White Building", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "2944647949", "venue": "122619383", "year": "2019", "title": "the concept of nature in early modern english literature", "label": [ "172173919", "2776608160" ], "author": [ "2649746402" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "are humans a help or a hindrance to the natural world are we an intrinsic part of the biosphere curbing nature s luxuriant tendencies as milton puts it through our consumption of plants anim", "title_raw": "The Concept of Nature in Early Modern English Literature", "abstract_raw": "Are humans a help or a hindrance to the natural world?

By combining the study of abundant literary and epigraphic sources, we have attempted to place the inscription in its historical context, correcting certain earlier scholarly assumptions, making new suggestions about the motivations of the numerous contributors, and examining the modalities of the refoundation of Thebes." }, { "paper": "2913934824", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2019", "title": "jan lanicek arnost frischer and the jewish politics of early 20th century europe", "label": [ "195244886", "150152722" ], "author": [ "2643818519" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Jan L\u00e1n\u00ed\u010dek.

The specific type of loom weight (discoid) recovered is a Cretan form, and this evidence of Cretan influence is also seen in a wider range of material culture features at these settlements during this period. Weaving is a complex skill and learning requires contact between novice and expert practitioner over an extended period of time; the introduction of a new weaving technology therefore raises the question of how the necessary technical knowledge and know-how was transferred from one individual or community to another. The archaeological indicators of this new technological practice, the loom weights themselves, are objects that very rarely travel, except with their owners; the presence of loom weights manufactured from non-local ceramic fabrics at some of the southern Aegean sites can therefore provide a window into the patterns of mobility through which the new technology is likely to have spread. Both in the Bronze Age and subsequent Archaic and Classical periods, weaving was closely associated with women. Loom weights thus constitute archaeological markers for the craftswomen who used them. This paper explores the insight they can offer into female networks of teaching, learning and craft practice in the second millennium bc ." }, { "paper": "2986337939", "venue": "65256140", "year": "2019", "title": "rubin dominic russia s muslim heartlands islam in the putin era xiii 345 pp maps bibliogr london c hurst co 2018 20 00 paper", "label": [ "4445939" ], "author": [ "2811201740" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Rubin, Dominic.

The predominant mortuary ritual in the Early Agricultural period was inhumation, possibly emphasizing a variety of identity intersections of the dead and the mourners in the treatment of the body while creating collective memories and remembrances through shared ways of commemorating the dead. An innovation in funerary practices in the form of secondary cremation appeared in the Early Agricultural period and was slowly but broadly adopted, representing new social dynamics within the society. Thereafter, secondary cremation became the main funeral custom. During the Early Preclassic period, the variation in body position and the type and quantity of objects found with individuals decreased. It is possible that the vehicle for displaying different identity intersections changed and was not placed in the body, per se, as much as in previous periods. However, the transformation characteristics of these funeral rituals and the increase in community investment could have fostered the building or reinforcing of stronger social ties that highlighted a \u201ccollective identity.\u201d" }, { "paper": "3110664360", "venue": "114691300", "year": "2020", "title": "beauty in the age of empire japan egypt and the global history of aesthetic education by raja adal new york columbia university press 2019 xvii 268 pp isbn 9780231191166 cloth", "label": [ "195244886", "2778495208", "206619068" ], "author": [ "2689678440" ], "reference": [ "2106079939" ], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Beauty in the Age of Empire: Japan, Egypt and the Global History of Aesthetic Education.

Ranjit Singh's kingdom has been studied for the extraordinary authority it exercised over warring Sikh factions and for the strong challenge it posed to political rivals like the British. Scholarly exploration of cultural efflorescence at the Lahore court has ignored the role of performing artistes, despite a preponderance of references to them in both Persian chronicles of the Lahore court and in European travelogues of the time. I demonstrate how Ranjit Singh was partial to musicians and dancers as a class, even marrying two Muslim courtesans in the face of stiff Sikh orthodoxy. A particular focus is on Ranjit's corps of \u2018Amazons\u2019\u2014female dancers performing martial feats dressed as men\u2014the cynosure of all eyes, especially male European, and their significance in representing the martial glory of the Sikh state.

The story is a fundamentally optimistic one. In 2019 global life expectancy was approaching 73 years. In 1800 it was probably about 30. To understand the origins of this transition, we have to look at the historical sequence by which so many causes of premature death have been vanquished over time. In England that story begins much earlier than often supposed, in the years around 1600. The first two 'victories' were over famine and plague. However, economic changes with negative influences on mortality meant that, despite this, life expectancies were either falling or stable between the late sixteenth and mid eighteenth centuries. The late eighteenth and early nineteenth century saw major declines in deaths from smallpox, malaria and typhus and the beginnings of the long-run increases in life expectancy. The period also saw urban areas become capable of demographic growth without a constant stream of migrants from the countryside: a necessary precondition for the global urbanization of the last two centuries and for modern economic growth. Since 1840 the highest national life expectancy globally has increased by three years in every decade." }, { "paper": "3099487558", "venue": "180173593", "year": "2020", "title": "the northern necropolis of gebelein in light of old and current fieldwork", "label": [ "166957645" ], "author": [ "281118698", "3101550894", "2645278399" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "the northern necropolis of gebelein was a place of important discoveries e g an archive of old kingdom papyri the tomb of unknowns and the tomb of the general iti ii several excavations have t", "title_raw": "The Northern Necropolis of Gebelein in Light of Old and Current Fieldwork", "abstract_raw": "The Northern Necropolis of Gebelein was a place of important discoveries, e.g. an archive of Old Kingdom papyri, the Tomb of Unknowns, and the Tomb of the General Iti II.

To interrogate outward Cahokian movements as diasporic, I reassess relationships between Cahokia and the Angel polity on the northeastern Mississippian frontier. I approach Mississippian communities through a relational framework as ever-emerging assemblages constituted by both human and non-human actors. This framework emphasizes ethnogenesis as a process of diaspora whereby dispersed groups are in a perpetual state of community-making outside of, but in reference to, a homeland. I focus on an analysis of the Angel assemblage of Ramey Incised pottery, a power-laden Cahokian object, and determine that Angel Ramey exhibits local paste signatures in what are otherwise primarily Cahokian-style pots. Further, I contextualize artifactual connections with socio-spatial practices of Angel communities and demonstrate that aligning residential structures and communal features to a Cahokian cosmography was a principal part of community-identity-making throughout the Angel polity. Ultimately, I argue that relationships with Cahokia motivated ethnogenesis in Angel communities." }, { "paper": "3016522001", "venue": "197437610", "year": "2020", "title": "jorge l giovannetti torres black british migrants in cuba race labor and empire in the twentieth century caribbean 1898 1948", "label": [ "2778495208", "2549261" ], "author": [ "279569606" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Jorge L.

Although Protestant missions during this period remained small in scale on the Catholic island, the views of British and American missionaries evidence how international perceptions of Dominicans transformed in the early twentieth century. Thus, this article makes two key interventions within the literature on Caribbean race and religion. First, it shows how outsiders\u2019 ideas about the Dominican Republic's racial composition aimed to change the Dominican Republic from a \u201cblack\u201d country into a racially ambiguous \u201cLatin\u201d one on the international stage.

Several narratives have been propagated by social media and, in some cases, national policies were forged in response. Now that many thousands of virus sequences are available, two studies analyzed some of the key early events in the spread of SARS-CoV-2. Bedford et al. found that the virus arrived in Washington state in late January or early February. The viral genome from the first case detected had mutations similar to those found in Chinese samples and rapidly spread and dominated subsequent undetected community transmission. The other viruses detected had origins in Europe. Worobey et al. found that early introductions into Germany and the west coast of the United States were extinguished by vigorous public health efforts, but these successes were largely unrecognized. Unfortunately, several major travel events occurred in February, including repatriations from China, with lax public health follow-up. Serial, independent introductions triggered the major outbreaks in the United States and Europe that still hold us in the grip of control measures.\n\nScience , this issue p. [571][1], p.

Sin embargo, al regresar a la Coleccion Morton, tambien identifico rastros\u2014archivos y esqueleticos\u2014de eventos pasados y pueblos que contrarrestan las historias oficiales y, al hacerlo, senalan la fragilidad de este proyecto nacionalista y los procesos de racializacion. francaisJ'utilise ici une approche bio-historique afin d'examiner la connexion entre l'effort engage au 19eme siecle pour la construction d'une nation aux Etats-Unis et la collection de cr\u00e2nes, notamment de \u00ab specimens \u00bb, constituee par le Dr. Samuel Morton. Des sites globalement disparates sont representes dans la Collection Morton, bien qu'environ 25% soient Amerindiens. Morton a fait l'acquisition de ces defunts a la suite de l'expansion coloniale et des conflits militaires ayant modifie les frontieres nationales des Etats-Unis. Les evenements ayant precipite l'expulsion des natifs du Sud-Ouest, avec une attention particuliere apportee a la Floride, sont eloquents. Durant ce processus, les recits transmis par les Americains \u00ab blancs \u00bb sur les interactions avec les \u00ab Indiens \u00bb se sont solidifies pour devenir l'histoire officielle, alors que les etudes craniometriques de Morton reifiaient les categories racialisees. Cette \u00ab strategie bio-politique \u00bb axee sur deux volets a produit des notions hegemoniques de la citoyennete americaine ayant privilegie la couleur de peau Blanche. Cependant, en me penchant a nouveau sur la Collection Morton, j'identifie egalement des traces\u2014d'archives et squelettiques\u2014d'evenements et de personnes du passe venant contrebalancer les histoires officielles, et qui ce faisant, soulignent la fragilite de ce projet nationaliste et des processus de racialisation. EnglishHere I use a biohistorical approach to examine the connection between 19th-century nation building in the United States and physicians\u2019 collection of crania, notably \u201cspecimens\u201d amassed by Dr. Samuel Morton. Globally disparate places are represented in the Morton Collection, though roughly 25% are Native Americans. Morton acquired these decedents as a result of colonial expansion and military conflicts that revised the national borders of the U.S. Events precipitating removal of natives from the Southeast, paying special attention to Florida, are demonstrative. During this process, \u201cWhite\u201d Americans\u2019 retellings of interactions with \u201cIndians\u201d solidified into official history, while Morton\u2019s craniometric studies reified racialized categories. This two-pronged \u201cbio-political strategy\u201d produced hegemonic notions of American citizenship that privileged Whiteness. In returning to the Morton Collection, however, I also identify traces\u2014archival and skeletal\u2014of past events and peoples that counterpoise official histories and, in so doing, point to the fragility of this nationalist project and racialization processes." }, { "paper": "3016480532", "venue": "97521448", "year": "2020", "title": "julius verus and the abandonment of antonine scotland", "label": [ "6303427", "154775046", "2778571376" ], "author": [ "2161810323", "2421224070" ], "reference": [ "372015265", "638295961", "659268696", "1590543587", "2039571873", "2063616332", "2124979083", "2132111831", "2133272967", "2332685552", "2520492633", "2567677199", "2769144743", "2770356546", "2788917395", "2885282696", "2946094791", "2981395262", "3008923819", "3016008838", "3023915814" ], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Julius Verus and the Abandonment of Antonine Scotland", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "3038804008", "venue": "137773608", "year": "2020", "title": "a guide to r the pandemic s misunderstood metric", "label": [ "53553401" ], "author": [ "2571644275" ], "reference": [ "3009468976", "3021923959", "3023063175" ], "abstract": "what the reproduction number can and can t tell us about managing covid 19 what the reproduction number can and can t tell us about managing covid 19", "title_raw": "A guide to R - the pandemic's misunderstood metric.", "abstract_raw": "What the reproduction number can and can\u2019t tell us about managing COVID-19.

To combat this, we analyzed thirteen double burials potentially related to childbirth death events, thereby containing an adult and a perinate. The specimens were excavated from the archaeological area identified as \u201cForli Campus\u201d (Forli, Italy), that dated to 17th-18th centuries AD and was adjacent to a hospital in use at that time. This period witnessed the development of medical techniques and novel approaches in obstetrics in Europe, with the introduction of lying-in hospitals and maternity wards. We here tested if the double burials were ascribable to childbirth death events and thus represent the first reported cases of the hospitalization of childbirth in the history of medicine. A multidisciplinary analysis was undertaken to achieve this aim, combining anthropology, archaeology, paleopathology and archaeogenetics. In five burials the adult individual was recognized as a female in fertile age and the non-adult individual was assigned as perinate. Mitochondrial DNA analysis highlighted different haplotypes among the individuals of these burials, and these results, combined with the archaeological and anthropological data do not support a possible maternal relationship between them. This study is novel in testing the hypotheses of childbirth deaths, through a reliable approach in the interpretation of these archaeological contexts. The analysis of ancient DNA in this particular application proves a useful strategy to support and complete the interpretation of archaeological and anthropological data, showing that a general assumption of mother/child relations within such burials can be misleading." }, { "paper": "3011196606", "venue": "121755651", "year": "2020", "title": "resisting enchantment questioning aestheticism modern chinese literature and the public sphere", "label": [ "205310680", "41555743", "191935318" ], "author": [ "3012489660" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "abstractif indeed aestheticization and enchantment are perennial traits of state discourses and practices in china it is perhaps unsurprising that a countertradition in modern literature should em", "title_raw": "Resisting Enchantment, Questioning Aestheticism: Modern Chinese Literature and the Public Sphere", "abstract_raw": "AbstractIf indeed aestheticization and enchantment are perennial traits of state discourses and practices in China, it is perhaps unsurprising that a countertradition in modern literature should em..." }, { "paper": "3037057242", "venue": "42980227", "year": "2020", "title": "prehistoric art as a boundary object technology and temporality of south african petroglyphs", "label": [ "542509070" ], "author": [ "317338892" ], "reference": [ "122806571", "192050550", "583938785", "640526560", "1179481012", "1480619479", "1483994231", "1488561102", "1971670344", "1989829348", "2004703097", "2025160862", "2027147934", "2032135421", "2042349004", "2053010460", "2054673774", "2061235837", "2072308779", "2072996528", "2077034950", "2083482985", "2090414493", "2121688977", "2152707901", "2157154485", "2162237094", "2257368936", "2284907100", "2322936232", "2329603239", "2410704834", "2460900251", "2487330303", "2505026416", "2589231888", "2591311467", "2617713476", "2622325364", "2754080278", "2754512900", "2772957601", "2896769259", "2949054045", "2950131785" ], "abstract": "decades ago i argued for the limited analytic purchase of the term art i was then primarily concerned with the relatively recent invention of the present day category the lack of local and archaeological specificity when art was discussed in broad classificatory lumps and the minimal reflection on the geopolitical ground of archaeological practice while i continue to find little analytic value in the term art when used to describe a broad range of prehistoric materials i offer a defense of its transactional nature i embrace the term art to show some of the classificatory work the term has done and the potential it may have if decoupled from certainty i will show that the category prehistoric art has been historically controlled through networks of materials archives and scholars as a contrasting point of reference the concept of a boundary object a productive term in science studies might allow for a far greater flexibility and inclusion of different communities to participate in the conversation about art to illustrate my point i discuss technologies and temporalities of art at wildebeest kuil northern cape south africa", "title_raw": "Prehistoric Art as a Boundary Object: Technology and Temporality of South African Petroglyphs", "abstract_raw": "Decades ago I argued for the limited analytic purchase of the term \u201cart.\u201d I was then primarily concerned with the relatively recent invention of the present day category; the lack of local and archaeological specificity when \u201cart\u201d was discussed in broad classificatory lumps; and the minimal reflection on the geopolitical ground of archaeological practice.

Alongside the extensive metropolitan property that Grenville brought to her marriage was Hope estate, a Jamaican plantation upon which worked 379 enslaved men, women, and children. Using legal records, family papers, and correspondence, the article examines the ways in which Grenville negotiated her position as a married woman and substantial property-owner, and considers what it meant for a married woman to \u2018own\u2019 property, landed and in the form of other human beings, in the late eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century aristocratic world. Examining her absentee slave-ownership alongside her metropolitan property-ownership highlights the complex intersections between race, class, and gender across both metropole and colony. In doing so, the article makes an important contribution to the rapidly expanding scholarship exploring female property-ownership in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Britain, hitherto almost entirely metropolitan in focus. It demonstrates how seamlessly enslaved property could be integrated into aristocratic forms of property-ownership and transmission, and highlights the important role that women played in bringing slave-ownership \u2018home\u2019 to metropolitan Britain." }, { "paper": "3089819604", "venue": "173880072", "year": "2020", "title": "archaeological evidence of early settlement in venice a comment on ammerman et al 2017 corrigendum", "label": [ "166957645" ], "author": [ "2099002385", "2119006875", "2664905212" ], "reference": [ "2800499547", "2904798049" ], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Archaeological evidence of early settlement in Venice: a comment on Ammerman et al.

Making use of a wide variety of unexplored and underexplored original sources, the article contends that early modern consumer culture in Iran was grounded deeply in the ever-widening patterns of exchange and use that had developed slowly over the course of the previous centuries. The discussion below takes the growing popular interest in a few key psychoactive substances as a useful barometer of the dynamics of mass consumption, and chronicles how the slow and ever-expanding use of alcohol, opium, and cannabis (or a cannabis-like product) in the medieval period led to the popularity of coffee, tobacco, older drugs, and still other commodities in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. The aim here is to use the history of drug culture as an entry point to scrutinize the emergence of early modern consumerism among the elites and the non-elites in both urban and rural areas of the Middle East. In doing so, this article reconstructs the cultural and social history of recreational drugs prior to and during the early modern period, and elucidates the socio-economic context that helped bring about a \u2018psychoactive revolution\u2019 in the Safavid state (1501\u20131736)." }, { "paper": "3093805438", "venue": "77777823", "year": "2020", "title": "puerto rico and disasters aftershocks of disaster puerto rico before and after the storm edited by yarimar bonilla and marisol lebron chicago haymarket books 2019 pp xiii 384 illustrations index 50 cloth 17 paper", "label": [ "166957645" ], "author": [ "2664937173" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Puerto Rico and Disasters - Aftershocks of Disaster: Puerto Rico Before and After the Storm.

This is not because the Indus civilization was not a complex society, rather, it is because there are common assumptions about distributions of wealth, hierarchies of power, specialization, and urbanism in the past that are simply incorrect. The Indus civilization reveals that a ruling class is not a prerequisite for social complexity." }, { "paper": "3095493307", "venue": "3880285", "year": "2020", "title": "the vibrant lives of neanderthals", "label": [ "2779879524", "53553401" ], "author": [ "2586643947" ], "reference": [ "2809300215" ], "abstract": "over the past several decades many academic and popular writers have attempted to narrow the long entrenched gulf between humans and neanderthals focusing for example on the misinterpretations and racist presumptions of the 19th and early 20th centuries out of which the dim view of our evolutionary cousin arose or on more recent paleoanthropological archaeological and genetic evidence suggesting that they interbred with our ancestors and displayed a range of sophisticated behaviors in her new book kindred rebecca wragg sykes nevertheless brings something new to this discussion", "title_raw": "The vibrant lives of Neanderthals", "abstract_raw": "Over the past several decades, many academic and popular writers have attempted to narrow the long-entrenched gulf between humans and Neanderthals, focusing, for example, on the misinterpretations and racist presumptions of the 19th and early 20th centuries out of which the dim view of our evolutionary cousin arose, or on more recent paleoanthropological, archaeological, and genetic evidence suggesting that they interbred with our ancestors and displayed a range of sophisticated behaviors.

The following article analyses the fortifications of eight EBA sites, as well as other markers of warfare, and argues that the period's fortifications were not as tactically efficient as they seem. Furthermore, other markers of war are generally missing. It seems that the period's fortifications were built mainly to demonstrate a town's might and power while deterring potential attackers. Taking into account the rise of social complexity during the period, they were also used to consolidate the society through the construction process and possibly to control movement and serve as a boundary marker. Incipient leaders, who planned and coordinated the construction, used possible threats and the construction process to aggrandize themselves as being the \u2018protectors\u2019 of the settlement." }, { "paper": "3048593040", "venue": "77777823", "year": "2020", "title": "a great fear luis de onis and the shadow war against napoleon in spanish america 1808 1812", "label": [ "195244886" ], "author": [ "2964475779" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "A Great Fear: Lu\u00eds de On\u00eds and the Shadow War against Napoleon in Spanish America, 1808\u20131812", "abstract_raw": "" }, { "paper": "3004274657", "venue": "165709033", "year": "2020", "title": "of house or bush the cultural psychodynamics of infanticide in northern ghana", "label": [ "2549261" ], "author": [ "2257789873" ], "reference": [ "320137926", "571560059", "599647040", "618380357", "621513809", "642100544", "1486145806", "1502120253", "1511120382", "1528006154", "1545361542", "1550172030", "1554006359", "1557415113", "1577645938", "1679875037", "1751153560", "1934571096", "1936894706", "1989622333", "1992626922", "1995663808", "2034529348", "2041877184", "2046612400", "2056649924", "2084420740", "2145366744", "2153911634", "2260812391", "2318598525", "2418334610", "2422268323", "2614281755", "2955024920", "2955983670", "2970810439", "3130564868" ], "abstract": "in northern ghana the nankani people describe how disabled or ill children and those whose births coincide with tragic events are spirit children sent from the bush to cause misfortune and destroy", "title_raw": "Of House or Bush: The Cultural Psychodynamics of Infanticide in Northern Ghana", "abstract_raw": "In northern Ghana, the Nankani people describe how disabled or ill children and those whose births coincide with tragic events are spirit children sent from the bush to cause misfortune and destroy..." }, { "paper": "3128059837", "venue": "3091228", "year": "2020", "title": "abolition in sierra leone abolition in sierra leone re building lives and identities in nineteenth century west africa by richard peter anderson new york cambridge university press 2020 pp xiv 293 99 99 hardcover isbn 9781108473545 80 00 e book ibsn 9781108667876", "label": [ "4445939" ], "author": [ "2623096394" ], "reference": [ "598966063", "2009203195", "2075523788", "2765574367" ], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "ABOLITION IN SIERRA LEONE - Abolition in Sierra Leone: Re-Building Lives and Identities in Nineteenth-Century West Africa.

around the planet, the United States observes the bitter anniversaries of two tragedies: its most damaging volcanic eruption and its largest marine oil spill. Forty years ago, on 18 May 1980, Mount St. Helens volcano erupted in Washington state, claiming 57 lives and triggering an enduring legacy of downstream sediment and hydrogeologic disruptions (see the Perspective by J. J. Major on page 704). Just 10 years ago, the Deepwater Horizon explosion and oil spill began on 20 April 2010 and continued to release oil for 87 days into the Gulf of Mexico from a damaged deep-sea well before it was finally capped. Eleven rig workers died in the explosion. As we all continue to struggle with the current pandemic crisis, it is an opportune time to ask what lessons in the response to previous catastrophes should not be forgotten.\n\nThe first lesson is that the battle is usually won or lost in the myriad actions that are taken in the days, weeks, and years before it has even begun. The \u201cjust in time\u201d installation of a seismic network on Mount St. Helens that gave warning of the pending eruption surely saved lives in the nearfield of the blast zone, but overengineered river drainage systems were unable to accommodate the sediment load resulting from the volcanic collapse. Any interventions that make systems more resilient can facilitate recovery from disasters\u2014a lesson that was dramatically demonstrated during the Deepwater Horizon spill, which affected a region already stressed from excess nutrient loading, hypoxia, overfishing, diversion of natural sedimentation for flood control, and pollution.\n\nAs a corollary to the first lesson, in preparing for the next emergency, expect the unexpected. Emergency managers, policy-makers, regulators, and even scientists too often assume that the next crisis will be \u201cjust like the last one.\u201d Not even scientists predicted the magnitude of the eruption at Mount St. Helens, which released more energy than Hurricane Katrina (2005) and produced the largest landslide ever recorded in human history. In the United States, there are historically explosive volcanoes within reach of major metropolitan areas (Mount Rainier\u2014Seattle/Tacoma; Mounts Spurr and Redoubt\u2014Anchorage) that could create a very different death and damage scenario than isolated Mount St. Helens. Oil spill responders were training for another Exxon Valdez tanker spill (1989), not for a Deepwater Horizon deep-sea blowout. The offshore industry is prepared now for another deep-sea blowout in the Gulf of Mexico, but nations also need to be ready for a spill far from a major industrial port and/or with a very limited weather window (e.g., the Arctic).\n\nScenario planning can be effective both for determining which prior actions will build resilience and lessen the impacts of disasters and for preparing for the unexpected. This approach was used effectively during the Deepwater Horizon oil spill for considering a range of scenarios for what might happen next, to prevent a legacy of problems that cascade from the environment to people and the economy. Cross-disciplinary teams of experts developed a wide range of future possibilities of what could go wrong (e.g., remobilization of offshore oil during hurricanes), even if improbable, and what actions could prevent or mitigate the worst consequences of those scenarios (e.g., closing the freshwater intakes to the city of New Orleans prehurricane). The scenarios proved eerily prescient.\n\nBoth of these lessons apply to the current pandemic. Its death toll in any region is varying with the prior health status of the population, the quality of the health care system, and the early precautions taken in the months and weeks after the first report of the disease to mitigate its spread. Any longer-term actions to curb obesity, reduce the incidence of diabetes, and eliminate respiratory afflictions caused by polluted air, smoking, and other factors are beneficial to public health even without a major pandemic. Undertaking scenario planning now can prevent unfortunate surprises as nations work to reopen their economies, reestablish travel and tourism, cope with the staggering levels of unemployment, and adjust to new norms in personal and professional lives engendered by the pandemic.

It draws from a new collection of 20 oral histories recorded in communities affected by Category-Five Cyclone Yasi (2011) in Far North Queensland, homing in on the combined narrative of wildlife conservationists Daryl Dickson and Geoff Moffatt. This life-narrative approach also allows space for the richness of detail that oral history offers in contextualising, in a sense actualising, a cautionary tale on our imminent future. Dickson and Moffatt\u2019s story is one of human and non-human environmental interconnection, where disaster is experienced as the loss of \u201cwild things\u201d (the rich biodiversity of the Wet Tropics, encountered in everyday life) and is remembered in discourse of environmental (in)justice. The chapter focuses especially on segments of their story that engage with the social politics of belonging in cyclone country, illuminating the ways discourse on weather and climate disaster sits at the intersection of biography, culture, politics and place. Indeed, their story of the experience of Cyclone Yasi reinforces a transpersonal ecology, where the memory of disaster is written into the future. In turn, this chapter argues for the value of oral history in opening up space for difference in disaster storytelling, for survivors grappling with an altered sense of the human place in a warming world." }, { "paper": "3011517283", "venue": "40982841", "year": "2020", "title": "between the highland polity and philistia the united monarchy and the resettlement of the shephelah in the iron age iia with a special focus on tel \u02bfeton and khirbet qeiyafa", "label": [ "58009596", "195244886" ], "author": [ "2117486009" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "the shephelah one of judah s 8th century b c e settlement hubs was sparsely settled during the iron age i when only a small canaanite enclave survived in its eastern part the resettlement of t", "title_raw": "Between the Highland Polity and Philistia: The United Monarchy and the Resettlement of the Shephelah in the Iron Age IIA, with a Special Focus on Tel \u02bfEton and Khirbet Qeiyafa", "abstract_raw": "The Shephelah, one of Judah\u2019s 8th century b.c.e. settlement hubs, was sparsely settled during the Iron Age I, when only a small Canaanite enclave survived in its eastern part.

The two most numerous categories of resettled laborers created by these imperial policies were the mitmaqkuna and yanakuna, who together represented at least a third of the total subject population. The Inkas resettled them, often far from their homelands. They were responsible for the daily provisioning of Inka settlements and keeping the peace among conquered populations. Despite their central role in Inka state consolidation and economy, we know little about these populations outside of ethnohistorical interpretations of their privileged status relative to normal tribute-paying communities. Because ethnohistoric documents were written with Inka and Spanish state interests in mind, archaeological evidence is crucial to evaluate their lived experiences. We compare the ethnohistoric and archaeological evidence of the lives of the mitmaqkuna and yanakuna in two regions: the mitmaqkuna site of Yanawilka in the Vilcas Huaman province and the yanakuna site of Cheqoq in the rural Inka heartland of Cuzco.

The entangled scripts \u2013 Chinese characters, Shan, Burmese and English \u2013 as well as the materiality and the visual codes of these documents bring into view forms of contact that did not last long. Contextualising these maps with other kinds of sources \u2013 including Scott\u2019s diaries and administrative reports \u2013 allows us to reconstruct their production as part of processes of intelligence gathering and frontier settlement. By tracing the more or less willing role of Burmese clerks, notables, guides and interpreters in the cartographic processes implemented by the English on the ground, we can reintroduce these actors into a history of cartography that has long been Eurocentric. Doing so reveals how the British had to rely on indigenous knowledge to control a territory quite unknown to them during the early years of colonisation." }, { "paper": "3091950419", "venue": "197577296", "year": "2020", "title": "huw j davies spying for wellington british military intelligence in the peninsular war campaigns and commanders series 64 norman university of oklahoma press 2018 pp 328 39 95 cloth", "label": [ "49504249", "195244886", "558872910" ], "author": [ "3091968122" ], "reference": [], "abstract": "", "title_raw": "Huw J.
