Abstract:
The organization of musical resources in a piece of music is opaque for everyone but for those with the highest levels of musical education. For the average listener, the specific vocabulary of musical organization is usually replaced by metaphorical language relating to inspiration and musical affect, or by a social perspective that rids the music of its specific theoretical language and provides a more relatable perspective of the music as a historical and communal event. We examine the ways in which information architecture and organizational theory can surface the inner workings of music in a relatable and approachable way. We consider music as a series of design resources that composers draw upon and organize according to a series of constraints that create a sense of musical structure to which the listener can relate. After a general introduction to the literature relating to constraints and creativity, we use two historical anecdotes that provide accessible demonstrations of how musicians in the seventeenth and twentieth centuries organized their musical resources both for their own compositional needs and for the purposes of didactic communication.

Abstract:
Abstract Exemplum XI of Don Juan Manuel’s Libro del Conde Lucanor (“De lo que contesçió a un deán de Sanctiago con don Yllán, el grand maestro de Toledo”, ca. 1331‒1335) relates the encounter of Don Yllán de Toledo, a learnèd necromancer, and the ambitious Dean of the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela. Exemplum XI is one of the best known and most celebrated stories in the book for its seemingly preternatural turn in the plot’s action and the characters’ visit to the Other World. The article seeks to identify Don Yllán with Archbishop Julian of Toledo (642‒690), author of the Prognosticon futuri saeculi (687), an important theological tract that circulated widely during the Middle Ages and that served as the basis for the doctrine of Purgatory. The Prognosticon contains illustrative anecdotes of dialogs with the dead and journeys to and from the Other World. As such, it endowed Julian with the legendary reputation of necromancer and probably served as inspiration for Don Juan Manuel’s Exemplum XI of El Conde Lucanor.

Abstract:
Very little critical attention has been directed toward biographical writings on Haydn and Mozart in the second and third decades of the nineteenth century, following the first wave of work by Friedrich Schlichtegroll and Franz Niemetschek (for Mozart, 1793, 1798) and Georg August Griesinger and Albert Dies (for Haydn, 1809, 1810). Examining varied biographically oriented materials in books, short profiles, anecdotes, and fiction, this article establishes contrasting narratives for the two composers during this period: Mozart was regarded as thoroughly immersed in music from beginning to end, born into it as an infant prodigy and dying in the act of writing it for the Requiem, encapsulating a unified life and oeuvre; and Haydn embraced a rags-to-riches, triumph-over-adversity story—poor at birth and in his youth but eventually feted as one of Western music's greatest figures—with full-fledged life-work alignment at death potentially compromised by a perceived decline in compositional powers toward the end. The article also traces influences of one narrative on the other, especially Mozart's on Haydn, including through accounts of Haydn's Creation and death. By explaining the diverging and converging narratives associated with Haydn and Mozart, I identify the second and third decades of the nineteenth century not as a protracted biographical cold spot but rather as a springboard and inspiration for future scholarly endeavor, including the serious, extended studies of Georg von Nissen, Alexandre Oulibicheff, and Otto Jahn (1828, 1843, and 1856 respectively).

Abstract:
PurposeBlake is relatively well-known, but who was J M Robertson? What's his connection with George Spencer-Brown? And how exactly did J M Robertson influence George Spencer-Brown?Design/methodology/approachGeorge Spencer-Brown (1923–2016) is the author (among other works) of the undeservedly little-known book, Laws of Form (1969/2011), which was a key inspiration for Niklas Luhmann (1927–1998). But what inspired George Spencer-Brown? This paper explores two key influences on George Spencer-Brown and his work: the English poet and artist, William Blake (1757–1827) and the Scottish rationalist, politician and author, J M Robertson (1856–1933).FindingsThe paper points to a broken link between George Spencer-Brown's work and Niklas Luhmann's.Originality/valueThese questions are explored from two perspectives: first, George Spencer-Brown's works and their debt to (1) Blake's work, from which he quotes in a number of instances and to (2) J M Robertson's (in particular, the latter's Letters on Reasoning (1905) and Rationalism (1912)); second, my personal connection to Spencer-Brown, who mentored me through Laws of Form and with whom I developed a close friendship involving regular weekly telephone conversations for the greater part of the last four years of Spencer-Brown's life. I share anecdotes and stories that connect George Spencer-Brown and J M Robertson that span George Spencer-Brown's lifetime – from his school days to his dying days. Both Blake's and Robertson's influences are relevant to Spencer-Brown's view of morality. The paper looks at specific connections between Blake's work and J M Robertson's on the one hand and George Spencer-Brown's on the other.

Abstract:
Kerala has been a destination for many economists from all around the world for its ‘unique model of development’. The basic sustainable indicators of human capital attainment of Kerala, despite its low income, are probably an exception in the human capital theory. Professor Amartya Sen, on many occasions, cited a ‘new paradigm of social development’ in the state. Many world bodies like UNDP, WHO, UNICEF, etc. have acknowledged this at different times. The development paradigm of Kerala had been a source of inspiration for the preparation of the Human Development Index (HDI) in 1990. The strong record of basic health has made the state comparable with developed countries.

Abstract:
This paper examines the factors that make up a high-quality youth-sport experience for special-population children. It is important to note that special-population youth are often very similar to nondisabled children (e.g., seeking enjoyment in sport), but they experience different contexts and socialization experiences such as fewer opportunities and more barriers to sport participation. The author first examines positive factors in the youth-sport experience and discusses mastery experiences and the generation of positive affect. He also discusses how sport can promote feelings of belongingness, freedom, and independence. In the second part of the paper he discusses how the youth-sport experience can contribute to a negative experience by examining bullying and teasing, as well as “inspiration porn.” Inspiration porn is a relatively new concept in the disability literature that has not been discussed in a sport context. The author proposes a five-component model that links anecdotal reports of inspiration porn to theory, thus providing a basis for future research on inspiration porn. Throughout the paper he examines research in each area, theories used, important findings, salient take-home points, and future research directions and imbues the paper in a disability social-relational model that asserts that individual, social, environmental, and cultural factors all play a role as proximal and distal influences in the sport experiences of special-population youth.

Abstract:
Social media, such as Facebook and Twitter, have been used by young Arabs for many purposes such as reporting breaking news, posting special events, launching political campaigns, announcing family gatherings and sending seasons' greetings. Another emerging type of timeline posts is creative writing in English. Some Arab Facebook users post lines of verse, short anecdotes or points of view, express emotions, personal experiences, and/or inspirational stories or sayings written in literary style. A sample of Facebook creative writing pages/clubs, and creative timeline posts was collected and analyzed to find out the forms and themes of creative writing texts. A sample of Facebook Arab creative writers was also surveyed to find out the reasons for their creative writing activities in English. This article describes the data collection and analysis procedures, and reports results quantitatively and qualitatively. Implications for developing creative writing skills in foreign/second language learners using Facebook are given.

Abstract:
The inspiration for the article is Zbigniew Rokita’s book “Kajś. A Tale of Upper Silesia”. It allowed the author to reflect on the issue of ethnic recognition of a human being as the basis for constructing an ethnic identity. The theoretical context consists of two theses: the first one (following Hannah Arendt) says that human beings always come to this world as new, as strangers, and to make their humanity more real, they need to act and speak; the second thesis (following Martin Heidegger) refers to the “truth of being” and proves that human habitation in the world is complicated. Attempts to understand the relationship between ethnic recognition and identity allowed the author to formulate the thesis that ethnicity is nothing else but knowledge about one’s family, community and the land inhabited by generations. The recognition of ethnicity itself can have three stages: 1) anecdotal identity; 2) attractive identity; 3) patched identity.

Abstract:
The main objectives of this study were (a) to elucidate young tennis players’ use of music to manipulate emotional states, and (b) to present a model grounded in present data to illustrate this phenomenon and to stimulate further research. Anecdotal evidence suggests that music listening is used regularly by elite athletes as a preperformance strategy, but only limited empirical evidence corroborates such use. Young tennis players (N = 14) were selected purposively for interview and diary data collection. Results indicated that participants consciously selected music to elicit various emotional states; frequently reported consequences of music listening included improved mood, increased arousal, and visual and auditory imagery. The choice of music tracks and the impact of music listening were mediated by a number of factors, including extramusical associations, inspirational lyrics, music properties, and desired emotional state. Implications for the future investigation of preperformance music are discussed.

Abstract:
This chapter introduces the origins of neoleftism. The origins of neoleftism as a distinct organizational phenomenon is dated twenty years ago after the end of World War I wherein Germans developed radical left politics on the margins of Social Democratic and Communist parties. The Nazi regime turned fascism into an existential threat for the left everywhere. The chapter clarifies using the German group called New Beginning as the main case study. New Beginning uses Karl Mannheim's anecdote of class, generation, and ideology blending in the composition of social movements as an inspiration. The chapter also includes how the politics of youth went beyond short-sighted ageism.

Abstract:
Planning For The Future requires an accurate assessment of what Brown accomplished either directly and indirectly, and what it failed to do. Such a critique is difficult because Brown has become a legal land­mark, an American icon embraced as a symbol of the nation’s ability to condemn racial segregation and put the unhappy past behind us. Indeed, the Brown decision has become so sacrosanct in law and in the beliefs of most Americans that any critic is deemed wrongheaded, even a traitor to the cause. Certainly, few veterans of the efforts to implement Brown through the racial-balance model are objective about the obstacles they faced. A typical response when confronted with their meager progress might be: “Sure, school integration has not worked because real integration has not been tried.” And despite its short-lived effectiveness in desegregating public schools, no one will deny the statistics of improved performance by some of the minority students who attended desegregated schools and their often-positive anecdotes of achievements under fire. The general view remains that Brown was the primary force and provided a vital inspirational spark in the post–World War II civil rights movement. Defenders maintain that Brown served as an important encouragement for the Montgomery bus boycotters, and that it served as a key symbol of cultural advancement for the nation. Even my progres­sive law students accept the view that Brown achieved more than it did. When I shared my alternative Brown decision (see chapter 3) with my constitutional law class, most students resisted the notion that affirming and enforcing “separate but equal” would have led to more progress than occurred under Brown. Nonetheless, my New York University colleague Paulette Caldwell and I both teach against the view of Brown as the icon of equality. At a dinner honoring Professor Caldwell, one of her students, Stacie Hendrix, told the gathering that she had viewed Brown v. Board of Education as a symbolic victory intended to change the state of race relations in America.

Abstract:
The original 1968 constitution of the International Association for Mathematical Geology provided that a newsletter be distributed to members. Initially the newsletter drew limited attention and consisted of little more than membership lists and postings of proposed revisions to the by-laws. As time went on, the content expanded to news of conferences and topics of interest to the geoscience community. Then a newsletter event sparked extraordinarily wide interest among the membership: the appearance in 1975 of a series on the life and contributions of R.G.V. Eigen. The idea was born during a luncheon hosted by John Harbaugh at the Eldridge Hotel in Lawrence, Kansas. Because Manfred Eigen was a guest, the conversation naturally turned to the sad neglect of the memory of his illustrious namesake. It was also observed that geomathematiciaiis owed a special debt to R.G.V. Eigen as the earliest author of a mathematical geology paper. Clearly, the IAMG News Letter would be an ideal forum to recall the achievements of this great pioneer, as an inspiration to the society members and as a simple matter of justice. The publication of the series resulted in a number of letters to the News Letter editor, John Davis. Most of the correspondents threw light on previously unknown incidents in Eigen's life as well as contributing items on Eigen's colleagues and rivals. Other, more cynical readers claimed to find an uncanny resemblance between pictures of Eigen and D.F. Merriam. However, the voices of these skeptics were stilled as anecdotal evidence of Eigen's career poured in from around the world. To ensure that the legacy of this legendary Father of Mathematical Geology will be preserved for future generations of mathematical geologists, much of the currently known Eigen material from the News Letter series and ensuing correspondence is summarized here, as well as a previously unpublished account of Eigen's meeting with Lewis Carroll. Rudolf Gottlieb Viktor Eigen (1833-1876) is remembered by all mathematical geologists for his elucidation of the matrix properties that bear his name.
