Fraade, Steven D. The Damascus Document. Oxford University Press, 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780198734338.001.0001.

Full text

Abstract:

The Damascus Document is an ancient Hebrew text that is one of the longest, oldest, and most important of the ancient scrolls found near Khirbet (ruins of) Qumran, usually referred to collectively as the Dead Sea Scrolls for the proximity of the Qumran settlement and eleven nearby caves to the Dead Sea. Its oldest parts originate in the mid- to late second century BCE. While the earliest discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls occurred in 1947, the Qumran Damascus Document fragments were discovered in 1952 (but not published in full until 1996), mainly in what is designated as Qumran Cave Four (some ten manuscripts altogether). However, it is unique in that two manuscripts (MS A and MS B) containing parts and variations of the same text were discovered much earlier, in 1896 (and published in 1910), among the discarded texts of the Cairo Geniza, the latter being written in the tenth-eleventh centuries CE. Together, the manuscripts of the Damascus Document, both ancient and medieval, are an invaluable source for understanding many aspects of ancient Jewish (and before that Israelite) history, theology, sectarian ideology, eschatology, liturgy, law, communal leadership, canon formation, and practice. Central to the structure of the overall text, is the intersection of law, both what we would call “biblical” (or biblically derived) and “communal,” and narrative/historical admonitions, perhaps modeled after a similar division the biblical book of Deuteronomy. A suitable characterization of the Damascus Document, to which we will repeatedly return, could be “bringing the Messiah through law.” Because of the longevity of its discovery, translation, publication, and debated interpretation, there is a long history of modern scholarship devoted to this ancient text.

Full text

Abstract:

Historians use cookbooks as primary source documents in much the same way they use any written record of the past. A primary source is a text written by someone in the past, rather than a secondary source which is commentary by a historian upon the primary sources. As with any document, the historian must attempt to answer five basic questions of provenance and purpose if possible. Who wrote the cookbook? What was the intended audience? Where was it produced and when? Why was it written? There are ways the historian can read between the lines of the recipes, so to speak to answer questions that are not directly related to cooking or material culture but may deal with gender roles, issues of class, ethnicity and race. Even topics such as politics, religion and world view are revealed in the commentary found in cookbooks and sometimes embedded in what appears to be a simple recipe. The most valuable of cookbooks and related culinary texts also reveal what we might call complete food ideologies.

Abstract:

The chapter describes ways of managing self-neglect in psychotic patients living in their own homes. Incidence in the general and mentally ill populations is poorly reported in the literature. The impact of the negative symptoms often found in schizophrenia on behaviour and activities of daily living, as well as consequences for physical health and social inclusion, are presented. The case study in this chapter illustrates ways to document assessed risk and to formulate interventions. Interventions need to be presented practically and sensitively within established relationships.

Full text

Abstract:

Four methods were used to document the diet of cheetahs: incidental observations, radio tracking, tracking, spoor, and continuous follows. A combination of continuous follows and tracking spoor gave the best results. Steenbok were the most frequently killed species, but they did not dominate the diet in the same way as Thomson’s gazelle do in the Serengeti. Coalition males have a different diet profile from single males, single females, females with cubs, and sibling groups. For all but single males, the relative occurrence of prey species in the diet reflected its dietary importance in terms of kilograms of meat obtained. Gemsbok calves and adult ostrich were important prey for coalition males and springhares were important for single males. Three individual prey specializations for females were found; namely springbok specialists, steenbok/duiker specialists, and intermediates. Contrary to an earlier study, springbok were not found to be the most important prey species.

Abstract:

This chapter treats newly discovered Bach manuscripts found in the archive of the Leipzig firm Breitkopf & Härtel, which was the most influential music publisher in eighteenth century Europe. Highlights include J. S. Bach’s autograph entries in early Weimar keyboard sources (Toccatas BWV 913/914); sources copied during J. S. Bach’s Leipzig period; and important new sources of instrumental works by three Bach sons. The manuscripts not only illustrate the performance repertoire of Leipzig music societies, such as the Gewandhaus concerts, during the mid-eighteenth century and after Sebastian Bach’s death, but also document the Breitkopf firm’s music distribution activities.

Full text

Abstract:

Early European accounts document the presence of Labrador Inuit in northern Newfoundland, the Strait of Belle Isle, and the northeastern Gulf of St. Lawrence in the late sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Controversy over the interpretation of the historical record and the extent and nature of Southern Inuit presence has been clarified by recent archaeological research on the Quebec Lower North shore, which demonstrates a series of seventeenth- and eighteenth-century winter sod-house villages in every major region from Brador to Petit Mécatina. House types are similar to those found on the Central Labrador coast, and all contain much Basque and other European material culture, indicating extensive trade contacts rather than the spoils of sporadic raids. The Hare Harbor Inuit settlement at Petit Mécatina is found at a Basque/European whaling and fishing station and appears to have been a European-Inuit enterprise facilitated by the Little Ice Age expansion of Arctic marine mammals.

Abstract:

Food history is part of what we call "public history." Public institutions such as museums, historic houses, national parks, and food production facilities collect, document, preserve, and present knowledge and practices, known as foodways, and as such, play a key role in narrating the production, preservation, service, distribution, and consumption of food throughout history. This article describes the types and styles of food history found in public institutions and looks at notable examples of that history in practice in the United States. It also presents some examples of what is missing, and why, in the institutional (or public) recollection of major stories in food history.

Abstract:

Eduardo Sánchez and Daniel Myrick’s The Blair Witch Project (1999) launched the horror subgenre of “found footage”—pseudodocumentary horror—into the mainstream. The film was marketed as a true story and features the footage of three student filmmakers who got lost on a trip to document the Blair Witch phenomenon. The film was remarkably effective in using simple cinematic techniques to generate an authenticity aesthetic, and in using a suggestive multiplatform advertising campaign, thus capturing audience interest and generating strong emotional responses. The film tapped into evolved defense mechanisms through its depiction of vulnerable youths getting lost in an unknown, hostile natural environment and being hunted by some malignant, apparently supernatural agent. The film’s promise of authenticity, of real horror, made the narrative premise even more salient to audiences.

Full text

Abstract:

Moses Hayim Luzzatto (1707–1746) gathered around him an inner circle of devout Jews who shared his belief in the imminent arrival of the messianic age and who privately identified members of their circle as divinely ordained to usher in the Redemption. To the rabbis of Venice and Frankfurt, however, Luzzatto was a heretic, whose claims to have written works at the dictation of a messenger from heaven could not be genuine. Under pressure from them he was obliged to withdraw a number of such works, and the manuscripts were either lost or destroyed. Yet his known works came to earn him admiration: as a literary figure among the adherents of the Enlightenment, as a great kabbalist and profound mystic by hasidim and even by some of their leading opponents, and as a great ethical teacher by all religious streams. The author of this book spent many years in the study of Luzzatto and his group, and succeeded in tracing a number of the lost manuscripts. In the essays translated in this volume, the author described and annotated the manuscripts which he found, giving the full text of some of the prose works and of all the poems. He was able to correct and add detail to the incomplete picture of Luzzatto and his mystical world. One of the most illuminating documents reproduced here is Luzzatto's version of his ketubah or marriage contract. A second key document is the personal, mystical diary which Luzzatto's second-in-command, Rabbi Moses David Valle, wrote in the margins of his own commentary on the Bible.

Full text

Abstract:

New Guinea, inhabited for approximately 50,000 years, has been the focus of far less archaeological research compared to Australia and Polynesia, to the south and east, respectively. However, the archaeology of this island is significant to perennial archaeological topics including the development of agriculture and social complexity, the explanation and effects of human interaction, the archaeological relevance of paleoenvironmental research, and the intersection of different dimensions of human variation, linguistic, biological, and cultural. This chapter focuses on both the changing subsistence practices of New Guinean populations over some 50 millennia, and the development of interaction and social networks between and within highland and lowland populations over the same time. Although Lapita pottery, often considered a marker of Austronesian migrants, is found in relatively small quantities on New Guinea, post-Lapita ceramics, document production, and exchange systems over the last two thousand years.

Abstract:

Edith Dudley Sylla, “Probability in Seventeenth and Eighteenth Century Continental Europe from the perspective of Jacob Bernoulli’s Art of Conjecturing.” Abstract Jacob Bernoulli’s book The Art of Conjecturing, published in Basel in 1713 based on a carefully written manuscript left incomplete at the time of Bernoulli’s death in 1705, may be considered the founding document of mathematical probability. It brought together the mathematics of games of chance found in Christiaan Huygens’ On Reckoning in Games of Chance with approaches to weighing the probable truth of conjectures in civil, moral, or economic matters. The four parts of Bernoulli’s book are described. Whereas a key concept for Huygens and Bernoulli was expectation, Abraham De Moivre defined probability in terms of relative frequency. The chapter closes with a brief discussion of De Moivre’s De mensura sortis and The Doctrine of Chances.

Full text

Abstract:

In “The Early Diaries of Wilford Woodruff, 1835–1839,” Laurel Thatcher Ulrich turns her eye to a source long considered important in early Mormon history that she believes is also a “great American diary.” Examining the handwriting and ornamentation as well as the content of Woodruff’s journals, she shows the close relationship between nineteenth-century writing practices and an emerging religious faith. Ulrich’s essay reminds readers of the ways in which diaries and journals represent not just the thoughts and words of their author, but their lived experiences. Over five years, Woodruff’s ambitious hopes for his new-found religion reframed his responsibilities as a son, brother, husband, and father. The borders and drawings in his diaries, as well as the family records and autograph albums he created for others, document his struggle to reconcile earthly and heavenly bonds.

Full text

Abstract:

This chapter examines the approach of the courts to ‘entire agreement’ and ‘non-reliance’ clauses. Such clauses seek to protect the integrity of the instrument. Modern commercial contracts have spawned a cluster of provisions intended to protect the integrity of the written instrument itself. They do so by restricting its easy modification and the parties' recourse to extra-contractual remedies—clauses requiring variations or waivers to be in writing or evidenced by signatures of senior personnel, clauses negating reliance on statements during negotiations, and entire agreement clauses. The chapter shows that whilst these clauses cannot wholly negate the characterization of the question of whether the agreement is integrated in writing as an issue of fact, they may have the effect of making a judge more sceptical of arguments that the agreement is to be found partly inside and partly outside the four corners of a document.

Abstract:

The marks and signatures of the insolvents recorded in the documents yield a variety of information about modes of self-identification, kinds and degrees of literacy, and income levels. Taking signatures on documents as indexes of literacy—those who were not literate signed with marks of various kinds—we found that a surprisingly large number of petitioners were literate. We also found that the proportion of literate petitioners seemed to go up, indicating a trend towards increasing literacy. This trend may be explained in part by the efforts of official, private, and missionary organizations in Bombay to spread literacy, which was traditionally the preserve of the upper classes and the upper castes. Literacy in English was valued especially highly and corresponds in our study to higher income levels.

Full text

Abstract:

Parasitic wasps of the genus Scelio play an important role in the regulation of orthopteran populations and are implicated in suppressing numbers of numerous pest locusts and grasshoppers. This landmark volume provides a full taxonomic treatment of the sixty species of Scelio found on the Australian continent and reviews in detail the biology and ecology and host relationships of Scelio on a worldwide basis. Taking an international perspective, the text outlines our current knowledge on topics such as host finding, population biology, and methods and techniques for collection and study in the field. The use of Scelio as biological control agents is discussed and comprehensive checklists document the recorded host relationships of each known species worldwide. There is a full taxonomic revision of all Australian species of Scelio, half of which are newly described. Each species description is complemented with high-quality line drawings, micrographs and distribution maps. In addition, an illustrated key to species enables easy identification of species by non-taxonomists. Biology, Ecology and Systematics of Australian Scelio provides wasp taxonomists, researchers of orthoptera and biological control workers with a basis for detailed studies elsewhere on this economically important group of insects.

Abstract:

This book is the true story of a youth that is consumed in a potash mine in Alsace twenty years ago.1 With fascinating precision, it introduces us to the techniques of an exhausting and dangerous job that—at least to my knowledge—has never been described. But its value surpasses, and by far, that of a simple document. In a darkly passionate tone, the author reconstitutes an entire human experience for us—the experience of a “wood-louse of a man who scrapes at the salt nine hundred meters down.” He tells us of his fatigue, his fear, his resignation, his rebellion, his suffering: “A suffering measurable in centigrade degrees, in dry temperature, in liters of sweat lost, in the number of scabs on the skin where the potash penetrates like an acid, like a tongue of fire.” He has us enter into his night: an exhausting obscurity that “consumes both the living strength of man and his thoughts.” Yet something human remains in these annihilated individuals, each of whom feels like “the twin brother of the other.” This humanness is found in the relationships that they maintain with each other. Henri Keller tells us about them ...

It provides an overview of the ways in which multiple tranches of debt provided by different lenders and lending groups are made available to a project and includes an analysis of various clauses found in the principal financing documents, with particular focus on financial covenants and the ways in which lenders seek to regulate the project company’s cashflows. The chapter also discusses a number of the key intercreditor issues that arise in the context of multi-sourced financings and looks specifically at the following agreements which commonly form part of the contractual matrix for a project financing: credit agreements, common terms agreements, accounts agreements, intercreditor agreements, ECA facility agreements, mezzanine facility agreements, and equity bridge facility agreements.

Its occurrence and outcome are a combination of the nature of the organism, the site at which it is found, and the competence of the host defensive (immune) system. There are around 1500 documented agents that are infectious for man. This chapter reviews the epidemiology of infective organisms.

Abstract:

Chapter 7 focuses on Dibao’s influence on family expenditures. The chapter documents the high expenditure demands on healthcare and education faced by most Dibao families across urban and rural areas. While Dibao has enabled urban recipient families to spend more on both of these items, it has helped rural families pay for healthcare but not education. Meeting survival needs is not found to be a priority in the use of Dibao money for either urban or rural recipients, suggesting that these families may be maintaining a bare-minimum level of livelihood while having to meet urgent health or education needs. In both urban and rural areas, Dibao receipt is associated with reduced spending on leisure. Rural Dibao receipt is also associated with reduced spending on alcohol, tobacco, gifts to others, and social insurance contributions, while the same effect is either not found or not examined in urban Dibao.

Full text

Abstract:

This chapter describes the process of codification a process which has been accelerated in recent years following the setting up of a Commission Supérieure de Codification in 1989. Today's codes are aimed at clarifying, and making more accessible, law which has become more complex owing to the increasing number of statutes in particular areas. The most common current method of codification used is the restatement in one place of the law in a particular area which was previously to be found scattered in different documents. The Commission, meanwhile, has not only introduced a number of new codes but also redesigned existing ones found to be in need of reshaping. These codes are the result of the work carried out by ministries involved in the task of producing a draft in their relevant area. It is clear that, today, codification is less an ideological enterprise than a technical exercise.

While reports of child sacrifice in the ancient Andes are often sensationalized to captivate popular audiences, the study of the practice provides archaeologists with an important means of investigating power and sociopolitical dynamics in antiquity. This chapter discusses the significance of the terms ‘child’ and ‘sacrifice’ in the Andes and examines the evidence of child sacrifice from ancient contexts in Andean regions of modern-day Peru and Bolivia. It considers data on sacrificial practices from dives sources, such as descriptions in ethnohistorical documents, representations in architectural design and portable art, and direct evidence found in the archaeological record. Finally, various approaches to the study of these sacrifices and possible avenues for future analyses are outlined.

Abstract:

The Incas used the quipu, a knotted cord device, for administrative and historical record-keeping. This chapter summarizes the modern scholarship on the quipu, which uses colonial documents and analyses of the construction and numerical composition of surviving quipus. Seventeenth-century sources describe how quipu records were calculated using the yupana, a simple device for performing basic arithmetic functions. Most of the extant quipus are found in museums or private collections, removed from their original context, but the recent discovery of several quipus that were left at the coastal site of Inkawasi when it was abandoned offer a unique opportunity to consider how they were used to register the movement of staple goods moving in and out of an Inca imperial storage facility.

Abstract:

This chapter focuses on the scribes who produced legal documents in the village of Djeme (western Thebes) in the eighth century CE. One specific formulaic component is used as the key case study to examine the degree of variation found between these writers. Scribes can be grouped together based not only on their use of this formula, but in conjunction with their palaeography and orthography. Variation between these features was not arbitrary, but was influenced by the professional networks (‘text communities’) within which they worked. The use of particular formulae was not necessarily a personal one, but reflects the type of training that each person received. In this, the practice of using two scripts for the use of different languages is key, highlighting the importance of extralinguistic elements when considering variation.

Abstract:

There are three puzzling structural features of global human rights practice. First, the scope of recognized rights is often extremely broad, rather than being more narrowly focused on things fundamental or basic to human existence. Second, many rights may be limited by any laws that meet the proportionality requirement, thereby undermining the idea that rights are trumps or firewalls that have priority over competing policy concerns. And third, the kind of things that can be found on lists in international, regional, or national human rights documents vary considerably between jurisdictions and instruments. This chapter explains how a rights practice that has such a structure can be made sense of within the liberal rights tradition, appealing to the idea that it effectively institutionalizes a general right to justification in a way that is sensitive to relevant differences across different contexts.
