Abstract:
For this issue, Victorians Live takes a global perspective on the afterlife of the Victorians. Using a fine nineteenth-century phrase, Margaret Harris writes of “Victorian Vestiges” in Australia. Carole Silver describes the mix of concealment and display in South Africa's dealing with its Victorian heritage. My essay on a recent American exhibition of the work of Morris & Co. shows the influence of this representative Victorian in California, as filtered through the collection of Henry Huntington for his Library in southern California and with additions for this show by contemporary California collectors. That Morris continues to live into our time is vividly shown in the venues of his global exhibitions, in Australia in a converted nineteenth-century powerhouse, at Yale in the modernist masterpiece of the twentieth-century architect, Louis Kahn.

<p>This paper will attempt to discuss Francis Schaeffer’s life and thought, with special emphasis on his apologetics. The primary resource is one of his books, ‘How Should We Then Live?’ and also several books about Schaeffer from various other authors: (1) Francis Schaeffer’s Apologetics: A Critique by Thomas Morris, (2) Reflection on Francis Schaeffer, edited by Ronald W. Ruegsegger, and (3) Francis Schaeffer: The Man and His Message, written by Louis Gifford Parkhurst, Jr. In his method of apologetical verification, he used of elements of common ground as a point of contact with unbelievers. Unlike the inductive approach, he majors on inner, existential values as well as outer empirical data. In contrast with the pre-suppositional approach, Schaeffer’s method discovers and appeals to factual and personal data in confirmation of his hypothesis.</p><p><strong>BAHASA INDONESIA <strong>ABSTRAK</strong>:</strong> Tulisan ini mencoba untuk mendiskusikan kehidupan dan pemikiran Francis Schaeffer, terutama pada bidang apologetik.

Abstract:
En este estudio se reivindica el carácter multiplánico del signo lingüístico, el papel del mismo en todo proceso cognitivo y el acierto de Saussure al enfatizar la esencia psíquica o mental del significante. Si bien erró al descartar el aspecto material del signo lingüístico, la originalidad y agudeza de su acierto lo hace merecedor de un puesto cimero en la historia de la teoría del signo. También se revisa las teorías del signo de Charles Sanders, Louis Hjemslev y Charles Morris para formular una propuesta que recoge los aportes de los cuatro teóricos precedentes y reivindicar el objeto o referente del signo de Saussure, el aspecto mental tanto del significante como del significado; de Hjemslev, la sustancia de los dos planos del signo; y de Morris, el sujeto de la semiosis, el intérprete. A partir de la lectura de los cuatro teóricos objeto de este estudio y de los que componen y de los que componen el marco teórico se expone que solo Saussure y Hjemslev le dan un tratamiento realmente multiplánico al signo lingüístico; y que la imagen acústica o logogén del significante, y la imagen mental o concepto del significado tienen repercusiones en la didáctica, en la epistemología, en la filosofía del lenguaje y en la logopedia.

Abstract:
In May 1969, Charles Harrison reviewed Morris Louis’ exhibition at the Waddington Galleries in London. Months later, he helped to install the exhibition When Attitudes Become Form at the Institute of Contemporary Arts. Harrison also wrote the catalogue text, published in Studio International. Those two texts marked a significant point in Harrison’s career. They were indicative of his disillusionment with modernist criticism, and of his burgeoning interest in the work of post-minimal and conceptual art. In this respect, the two essays mark a transition from modernism to post-modernism in the space between a formalist analysis of the art object and a more dispersed field of artistic practice, where a changed relationship between art practice, criticism, and curating was taking place. However, in the 2000s, Harrison came to reflect upon this cardinal moment. Harrison referred to his recollected experiences of the late 1960s as a ‘cherished moment of involuntary realism’, opening up issues around art writing which remain pertinent to the practice of art history.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis investigates the work of Morris Louis (1912-1962) in relation to ‘opticality’, a theory developed by the prominent American art critic Clement Greenberg. Between the late 1930s and 1950s, Greenberg developed a comprehensive argument concerning the opticality, or the optical illusion, of abstract painting. This theory influenced common approaches towards Abstract Expressionist painting during the 1940s and 1950s, culminating in Greenberg’s writing on ‘Colourfield’ painting in major texts of the 1960s such as ‘Louis and Noland’ (1960). Through research into the development of Morris Louis’ technique, including several of his major series as well as lesser known works, this thesis argues that our understanding of Louis’ work has been constricted by a narrow perception of the opticality of his 'stain' paintings, and explores Louis' technique in light of alternative interpretations of his work.

Abstract:
My work concerns the divergent narratives created by fusing varied, often conflicting, textures, colors and fabrics, into a tenuous order. I intend for these otherwise clashing materials to create drama that is simultaneously enthusiastic, epic and ambiguous. While this media's formal properties re an important component of my work, the material's cultural and art-historical associations are also are critical ingredient. In this thesis, I will explore the use of the varied collage material, hierarchical compositions and contemporary influence of 19th Century Romantic themes as they relate to forming a variety of distinctly contemporary narratives in my compositions. I will investigate how my artistic point-of-view is informed by art-history, irony and the work of contemporary painters. Finally, I will discuss how my work engages a contemporary version of the Sublime.

Full text
Abstract:
An edited transcription of the 1879 to 1887 diaries of Mary Lois Walker Morris (1835-1919). Mary Lois, a plural wife in 19th century Utah, went in and out of hiding between 1885 and 1887 to protect her husband Elias Morris from prosecution for illegal cohabitation. Her daily diaries culminate with the court trial of her husband for illegal cohabitation in September 1887. At the trial, she testified falsely, stating that she had been separated from her husband since the beginning of 1883, when in fact the couple did not separate until May of 1885. As a result, her husband was acquitted. Mary Lois and her husband Elias Morris, a prominent builder and businessman, were in a levirate marriage. Mary Lois had married Elias's brother John in 1852 and came across the plains to Salt Lake City with him. In 1855, when John lay dying, Mary Lois promised him that she would marry his brother Elias and raise up children that would belong to John in the hereafter. John's brother Elias agreed and took Mary Lois as a plural wife in 1856. Together, they had eight children, including LDS apostle George Q. Morris and Nephi Morris, a member of the Utah state legislature. Mary Lois's diaries contain detailed information about her own and her children's church meeting attendance, her time as the president of the Salt Lake 15th Ward Primary Association, her work as a milliner, her attitude toward polygamy and her interactions with her husband and children. Her diaries also give evidence of a rich cultural life that included attendance at many plays and concerts and contain conversations and interaction with many LDS people in Salt Lake City at the time. She records information about courtship patterns, housecleaning, leisure activities, reading material and other aspects of daily life in 19th century Utah. In addition, Mary Lois gives political commentary on the anti-polygamy conflict occurring around her and records her own experience in hiding during the raid.

Abstract:
Le scandale et l’indignation constituent deux notions thématique et rhétorique centrales de la prédication religieuse classique que ce travail se propose d’étudier à partir des sermons des trois plus grands prédicateurs du règne de Louis XIV : Bossuet, Bourdaloue et Massillon. La première partie présente les fondements théologiques du scandale avant de suivre l’évolution de cette notion qui intéresse rapidement le droit canon et la morale. La seconde partie de ce travail étudie précisément la notion de scandale dans les sermons des prédicateurs classiques. Elle met en lumière la transposition morale et la généralisation de la notion de scandale à l’âge classique sous la forme du scandale de mœurs. L’analyse des sermons classiques s’attache à dévoiler le fonctionnement de l’argument du scandale et de la passion rhétorique associée, l’indignation. La troisième partie envisage l’efficacité de la parole sermonnaire comme arme pour lutter contre l’omniprésence des scandales parmi les hommes. Elle s’intéresse notamment à l’ambivalence de la parole des prédicateurs et à ses enjeux politiques

Abstract:
There has been a fast-growing demand for cybersecurity professionals to defend cyber space and information systems. With more and more programs and course offerings in cybersecurity popping up in higher education, it is important to have a consistent and reliable quality standard to guide and evaluate the training and preparation of qualified cyber defense workforce. The national Centers of Academic Excellence in Cyber Defense Education (CAE-CDE) designation program jointly sponsored by the US National Security Agency (NSA) and Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is a rigorous national standard with specific criteria for maintaining the quality of cybersecurity education. This article explains the CAE-CDE program criteria and requirements and discusses the important role of the special designation in improving cyber defense education and workforce development. This article illustrates the educational value and quality impact of the CAE-CDE program with three case studies: (1) University of Missouri – St. Louis; (2) American Public University; and (3) Robert Morris University.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter talks about another great cultural fashion that hit Paris, one deeply steeped in the biomedical science of the day: a vogue for picturesque and satirical books called “physiologies.” It analyzes physiologies' cultural, social, and, above all, scientific settings — focusing on the journalistic or formal aesthetic qualities of the texts. The early physiological craze shows how conventions of medical writing had begun to influence general approaches to literary form and content. The chapter then examines the emergence of the physiological literary genre in the 1820s and 1830s, focusing upon four of the genre's defining works: Dr. Jean-Louis Alibert's La Physiologie des passions (1825), Jean-Anthelme Brillat-Savarin's La Physiologie du goût (1825–1826), Honoré de Balzac's La Physiologie du mariage (drafted in the 1820s, but published in 1830), and Dr. Morel de Rubempré's La Physiologie de la liberté (1830) — the last which appeared in the aftermath of the July Revolution. It focuses upon how these works emerged from techniques of analysis and narration found in physiological medicine, as authors and editors capitalized upon the successes (and scandals) associated with the new physiological science, as it emerged in the early 1800s, but also how these texts engaged particular political and ideological realities of the post-revolutionary decades.

Abstract:
Gathering together common themes from works by Barth, Gaiman, Byatt, Selick, Ferrante, Morrison, Bloom, Rushdie, and Patchett, a brief Conclusion reflects on the ubiquity of the descent motif and its status as a literary space in the context of postmodernism’s critiques of the canon. Underworld mythology lends itself to postmodern interrogations of authenticity, history, and authorial proprietorship. Further uses of the underworld tradition include artist Anish Kapoor’s “Descent into Limbo,” Oliver Sacks’ memoir Awakenings, Andrew Sean Greer’s novel Less, and Louise Glück’s Averno. The Other Worlds imagined in catabatic fiction contribute to these themes with implied correspondences between dreams and ghosts.

Abstract:
As Morrison and Stone began excavating at St. John’s in 1972, they encountered structures constructed or repaired with hole-set posts. Like a fence with wooden posts, these were buildings whose walls were attached to posts whose feet were set in post holes and held in place by having dirt compacted around the post feet as the post holes were back filled. At St. John’s, they discovered that the most accurate way to dimension an earthfast building was not from archaeological drawings, but directly from the dirt. At van Sweringen’s coffee house, through tedious experiments, they learned the best way to dimension hole-set timbers. Their refined excavating techniques allowed them to diagnose the phase two van Sweringen kitchen as a side-wall reared structure and the print shop as a bent-reared structure. Morrison and Stone’s research benefited from collaboration with architectural historian Cary Carson, historian Lois Carr, and housewright John O’Rourke--O’Rourke’s construction of a seventeenth-century plantation exhibit served, in part, as experimental archaeology. The 1970s was an exciting period of archaeological discovery throughout the Chesapeake. In 1981, under the leadership of Cary Carson, these discoveries were published as “Impermanent Architecture in the Southern American Colonies.”
