Abstract:
Resumen Este artículo muestra cómo en su novela El zorro de arriba y el zorro de abajo, José María Arguedas combina su voz de autor con la de figuras míticas antiguas para hacer un alegato más poderoso por la justicia ambiental a favor de los pueblos indígenas en el contexto de la industrialización del Perú moderno. A diferencia de sus anteriores novelas realistas Yawar fiesta, Los ríos profundos y Todas las sangres, que tienen una visión más antropológicamente descriptiva de los indios y sus relaciones con los pueblos colonizadores, esta novela se encuadra dentro del realismo mágico y se centra en el paraíso perdido de Chimbote, una ciudad costera. La imagen que Arguedas nos ofrece de la ciudad explotada como una mujer caída es una crítica profética, que confirma los principios del discurso de Val Plumwood y otras ecofeministas contemporáneas. Este narrador reinterpreta la figura mítica del héroe burlador (trickster) a través de una actualización literaria de los zorros míticos de la cultura Moche con el fin de crear una forma moderna de pensamiento mitológico. A través del diálogo entre dos zorros, el novelista es capaz de trascender el tiempo y el espacio para brindar a los lectores una amplia perspectiva ecocrítica del transcurso de la degradación ambiental y social que la industrialización desenfrenada produce en el Perú del siglo XX.Abstract This paper argues that in El zorro de arriba y el zorro de abajo, José María Arguedas combines his authorial voice with ancient mythical figures to make a powerful call for environmental justice for indigenous peoples in the context of the industrialization of modern Peru. Unlike his previous realistic novels Yawar fiesta, Los ríos profundos and Todas las sangres, which have a more anthropologically descriptive view of Indians and their relations to the colonizing peoples, this novel adopts magic realism and is about the lost paradise of Chimbote, a coastal city. Arguedas’ image of the exploited city as a fallen woman is a prescient critique, which confirms tenets of the discourse of Val Plumwood and other contemporary ecofeminists. Although the mythical “zorros” from the highlands and the lowlands are derived from Moche culture and other Peruvian legends, in his new myth recreated in their dialogue, the “zorros” become “trickster heroes” in a modern age with their mythic voices. Through their dialogue, Arguedas is able to transcend time and space to give the readers a broad eco-critical perspective of the course of environmental and social degradation under rampant industrialization in 20th century Peru.

Abstract:
The city of Mocha in Yemen was one of the most important Red Sea ports of the early modern Arab world. In this essay, I examine the urban structures that governed the needs and practices of merchants in the city during the first half of the eighteenth century. Drawing on contemporary Arabic chronicles, archival European trade documents, historical photographs, and fieldwork in the city, I document the conspicuous absence of a network of public trade structures, like the urban khan, the expected locus of trade in an Arab city devoted to international commerce, and I provide evidence of the use of the merchant's house as the central location for trade activity, commercial negotiations, storage of merchandise, and lodging of foreign merchants. This case study presents a form of commercial interaction that questions a fixed private identity for the house in Mocha and draws on a maritime system of interaction to account for such a unique form of trade in an Arab city that served as an important Indian Ocean port.

Abstract:
AbstractThe paper first situates the trade carried on by private European traders in the overall framework of the Indian Ocean trade in the early-modern period. It then discusses in some detail the trading network of private English merchants in the Western Indian Ocean with special reference to the Surat-Mocha link in the 1720s and the 1730s. The evidence base is provided mainly by the private papers of Sir Robert Cowan, governor of Bombay between 1729 and 1734 and a major English private trader, operating in collaboration with Henry Lowther, chief of the English factory at Surat. Cette contribution replace tout d'abord les activités commerciales menées par les négociants européens dans le cadre général du commerce de l'Océan indien au cours de la période moderne. Elle examine ensuite avec quelque détail le réseau commercial établi par des négociants anglais privés dans le secteur occidentalde l'Océan indien, plus particulièrement les relations instituées entre Surat et Moka dans les années 1720-1730. Les données présentées ont été tirées principalement de la correspondance privée de Sir Robert Cowan, gouverneur de Bombay (1729-1734) et grand négociant privé, associé à Henry Lowther, responsable du comptoir de Surat.

Abstract:
Scheduled Castes (SCs) comprise 16.6 per cent of India’s population. The distinguishing feature of SCs in Punjab is that they constitute numerical strength, that is, 31.9 per cent (2011 Census). In terms of population share, Punjab accounts for 4.4 per cent of the total SCs’ population in India. During this decade, two more castes, namely, Mochi and Mahatam/Rai Sikh castes, have been notified as SCs in Punjab. Today, it is estimated that the proportion of Dalits may have risen above 32 per cent in Punjab. This article argues as to why the high concentration of Dalit population in Punjab has not translated into success for the Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP). For answering this question, the study examines two aspects, namely, the nature of the party organization and the political strategy of the BSP. The study was qualitative and conducted in the Doaba region of Punjab. It is an analysis of the interactions with 300 respondents of the targeted SCs population and 25 leaders of the BSP and its factional political parties.

Abstract:
Nirmal Kumar Bose, a doyen of Indian anthropology, was very much motivated by the life, philosophy and vision of Mahatma Gandhi. Bose may truly be considered as a Gandhian anthropologist. His journey on Gandhian philosophy started in the 1930s when he left the University and joined the Salt Satyagraha Movement launched by Gandhi. Bose was engaged in Gandhian social reconstruction work in a Harijan slum. The slum was inhabited by the so-called untouchable people, like the Mochi, Hadi and Bauri. Later, along with some of his friends, Bose published Harijan, a journal of Mahatma Gandhi, and a few other writings of Gandhi in Bengali in 1942, when Gandhi initiated the Quit India Movement. In 1946, after the communal strike, Gandhi came to Noakhali on a peace mission. He invited Bose to stay with him as a Bengali teacher and interpreter. During this period, Gandhi often deputed his personal secretary, Pyarelal, for peace work in some villages. During the absence of Pyarelal, Bose had to perform the secretariat work of Gandhi as well. All this moulded the life of Bose on Gandhian thought and philosophy.

Abstract:
Face a la variabilite spatiale et temporelle de la qualite locale de l'environnement, les individus doivent recolter et utiliser des informations pour faire des choix optimaux. Dans le contexte de la selection de l'habitat de reproduction, le succes reproducteur local des congeneres dans un habitat donne a recemment ete suggere comme l'un des meilleurs indices disponibles revelant la qualite locale, car il integre en un seul parametre l'information concernant l'ensemble des facteurs affectant localement la reproduction. Cette these s'est attachee a tester en detail l'utilisation de cet indice dans la selection de l'habitat, en utilisant differentes approches. La stabilite evolutive d'une strategie de selection de l'habitat de reproduction basee sur le succes reproducteur local a ete estimee par une approche theorique. Des approches empirique et experimentale ont ensuite cherche a tester en detail l'utilisation de cet indice dans les decisions de selection de l'habitat (decisions de partir et de s'installer) chez le gobe-mouche a collier ficedula albicollis, ainsi que les processus de recolte de l'information par les comportements de prospection. Le risque de predation au nid, et les couts de reproduction potentiels et perturbations dues aux manipulations, egalement susceptibles d'influencer le choix de l'habitat chez cette espece, ont ete consideres. Ces differentes approches suggerent que l'utilisation du succes reproducteur local comme un indice revelant la qualite locale des differents habitats potentiels dans les processus de selection de l'habitat de reproduction semble etre une strategie largement favorisee et repandue dans la nature, y compris chez des especes pour lesquelles les processus de recolte de l'information devraient a priori etre couteux. Cet indice pourrait cependant etre utilise pour evaluer differentes composantes de la qualite locale, et son utilisation pourrait entrer en interaction avec d'autres decisions strategiques liees a la reproduction.

The objective of this study was to characterize the age, weight and body morphometric measurements of Nellore heifers reared in Cerrado biome. Fifty-six heifers were experimentally exposed with bulls for determining the onset of their reproductive life. Body weight, condition and measurements of the heifers were evaluated every 60 days between 16 and 32 months of age. The following body measurements were registered: withers height, rump height, body length, head length, rump length, ear length, distance between ribs, distance from dorsal spine to belly, distance from ground to belly, head width, rump width, width between ischiums, ear width, cannon bone perimeter, tail implantation perimeter and thoracic perimeter. The average age at the onset of their reproductive life and the mean body weight were 28,74±2,81 months and 333,83±39,13 kg, respectively. Significant difference were observed for the following measurements: withers height, rump height, body length, rump length, head width, rump width, width between ischiums, tail implantation perimeter, thoracic perimeter and body condition score. Higher morphometric measurement values were observed in pregnant animals. The age in which the animals achieved the onset of their reproductive life in this study was similar to the ones described for Zebu females in the literature. In this case, more studies on genetic improvement and management alternatives are needed to anticipate the onset of the heifers´ reproductive life. The body morphometric mensuraments were higher in the pregnant heifers, indicating that the morphometric records can be an important tool to identify precocious Nellore females.

Este trabalho teve como objetivo caracterizar o peso, as medidas morfométricas do corpo e prenhez em novilhas Nelore dos 16 aos 32 meses criadas no bioma Cerrado. Foram utilizadas 56 novilhas da raça Nelore, expostas com touros para a determinação da idade a primeira prenhez. As novilhas foram avaliadas quanto ao peso, condição corporal e morfometria corporal a cada dois meses dos 16 aos 32 meses de idade. Tomaram-se as seguintes medidas corporais: altura da cernelha, altura do posterior, comprimento do corpo, comprimento da cabeça, comprimento da garupa, comprimento da orelha, distância entre costelas, distância dorso ventre, distância ventre solo, largura da cabeça, largura da garupa, largura entre ísquios, largura da orelha, perímetro da canela, perímetro da rabada, perímetro torácico. Os resultados evidenciaram idade aproximada a primeira prenhez de 28,74±2,81 meses com peso médio de 333,83±39,13 kg. Com relação às medidas morfométricas observaram-se diferenças significativas na altura da cernelha, altura do posterior, comprimento do corpo, comprimento da garupa, largura da cabeça, largura da garupa, largura entre ísquios, perímetro da rabada e perímetro torácico, sendo estas maiores nos animais gestantes. Concluiu-se que a idade a primeira gestação das novilhas Nelore observada neste experimento encontra-se próxima ao descrito na literatura para fêmeas zebuínas. Este fato indica haver a necessidade de maiores estudos, relacionados ao melhoramento genético e/ou alternativas de manejo, a fim de antecipar o início da vida reprodutiva. As medidas morfométricas foram maiores nas novilhas gestantes, sugerindo que esta abordagem de mensuração corporal pode ser uma ferramenta auxiliar na identificação de animais precoces.

Abstract:
The PhD dissertation entitled A Materiality of Sound: Musical Practices of the Moche of Peru examines the role of sonic practice within the Moche culture, a complex polity that flourished on the north coast of Peru between 100 and 900 AD. Music, as a cultural expression of sound, plays an important part in every known human society. Instead of accepting that such a significant aspect of human social life, as sound should remain forever beyond the reach of archaeological inquiry, A Materiality of Sound investigates the durable material traces of sound, such as instrumentation and architecture, using modern recording and acoustic measurement technologies. These techniques permit the exploration of aural experience and sound use in past contexts. The foundation for the archaeological inquiry of sound and music derives from the phenomenology of Merlau-Ponty (1962); a theoretical standpoint stating that humans experience and interact with the world through all our senses simultaneously. Archaeological interpretation tends to focus on the visual aspects of the world, with the implications that past peoples also privileged sight above all other senses. In order to interpret the choices and strategies employed by past societies, one must consider that the visual may not represent the only, or most valued, sense involved. This dissertation presents two primary arguments. First, the efficacy of Moche theatrical performances resides in the intersensorial interaction of the visual and the auditory. Moche sound producing artifacts consistently display exterior decoration, and performances depicted in Moche art regularly include specific sound producing artifacts. This repeated confluence of sound and image creates “multi-media” objects, in which image and sound potentially amplify the effects of each other. These multi-media objects generate a new experience of “sound-image,” the efficacy of which derives from the interaction between sound and image in a single object. A “sound-image” stimulates the intersensorial nature of human experience in a specific way, perhaps invoking the generative power of these objects to create action and communicate presence. Without the presence of “sound-image,” the efficacy of a Moche performance could not be achieved. Second, this dissertation argues that the desire to create specific multi-sensory experiences, which include sound, acted as a driving force behind the creation of Moche performance spaces and material culture. The construction of performance spaces, whether monumental huaca structures or smaller platforms and plazas, requires planning the structure, procuring resources and organizing labor. Architecture does not present space co-opted as a stage for performance, but an actively constructed and desired space. Moche iconographic depictions of platforms and plazas utilized as the settings of performances that included sonic practices indicates that at least one of the roles of these spaces was as stages for Moche theatrical performance.

Abstract:
This chapter looks at two accounts of the French 1737 bombing of Mocha to make the concluding case that cultural and religious differences in the ports and emporia of Yemen were often understood in material terms and that the anxieties and discomforts generated by the cross-cultural encounter were expressed most readily through a language of things. It validates material culture as an important tool that served to assert, but also to evaluate, merchant identity and standing across the early modern western Indian Ocean.

Abstract:
This chapter addresses the conflict between the Peoria and the Mesquakie Indians, hostilities that historians today call the Fox Wars. To counter potential British inroads into French trade turf, and to nullify the effects of illegal traders in Wisconsin, Antoine de la Mothe Cadillac invited the Mesquakie to settle near his new post at Detroit, in the Lower Peninsula, where other regional tribes had previously settled. Unfortunately for the tribe, by the time the first Mesquakie group—led by a chief named Pemoussa—arrived at Detroit in 1712, Cadillac was no longer commandant of the post. Soon after the Mesquakie had settled near the fort, they created unrest by stealing livestock and taunting other tribes. Later, an Illinois chief named Makouandeby threatened the Mesquakie; this would inspire the Mesquakie to attack the Illinois for years to come. Mortal enmity was now sealed between the Mesquakie and their allies and the French and their Indian allies. Makouandeby's insults were added to a long list of grievances that the tribe held against the French and now, against the Illinois. This affront to Mesquakie honor was yet another reason why the Fox Wars grew to become so violent. It ensured that the Starved Rock Peoria would become targets of Mesquakie wrath and reprisals.

Abstract:
Sent by the French crown, commandant general Jean-Baptiste Le Moyne, Sieur de Bienville, established La Nouvelle-Orlans on the banks of the Mississippi river in 1718, negotiating with the native Chitimacha and facing epidemics, tribal wars, and foot shortages. Born in 1680 in Montreal, Bienville became a French naval cadet and joined his brother Pierre’s crew, Sieur d’Iberville, at 16. With Iberville, Bienville travelled the Mississippi Valley, trading with and learning from the Native Americans. Events of note include Bienville’s conflict with governor La Mothe Cadillac and Bienville’s negotiations with the Natchez royalty that ended with breaking ground at New Orleans. Due to conflicts with French officials, Bienville was recalled to Paris in 1723, and Company of the Indies took over New Orleans governance. Tensions arose between the settlers and Natchez, worsened by the actions of Étienne de Chépart, who was eventually killed in a Natchez attack. The new governor, Étienne Boucher de Périer, violently retaliated against the Native Americans, and Company of the Indies officials responded to its catastrophic losses by washing their hands of Louisiana. In 1732, the king sent Bienville back as governor.
