Abstract:
Wide Sargasso Sea is acclaimed as the masterpiece of the British female writer Jean Rhys. In the novel, Rhys reshapes the mad wife of Rochester, Bertha Mason, who is imprisoned in the attic in Jane Eyre. With her own life experience as a white Creole and her experience living in West Indies as a blueprint, setting the abolition of slavery in West Indies in the nineteenth century as the background of the times, Rhys restores Antoinette a real state of survival under colonialism and patriarchy, with a sense of identity loss and confusion. The use of symbolism is one of the most outstanding styles in description. Owing to the use of symbolism, the historical situation of Jamaica under colonialism and patriarchy has been successfully displayed and the abstract moral themes have been vividly conveyed. This paper seeks to set symbolism as a theoretical basis, classify and analyze the symbols in the novel in accordance with their roles in revealing the themes, illustrating a complete interpretation of the complicated racial conflicts and patriarchy oppression in West Indies.

Full text
Abstract:
This article proposes a new reading of the relationship between place and symbolic capital, arguing that certain loci are able to consecrate literary works through inspiration rather than reception, publication and circulation. Taking the city of Bruges as an exemplar, it examines its representation by Baudelaire, Rodenbach and Rilke, arguing that Rilke's poetic transformation enables it to transcend its status as a ‘dead city’ and Decadent trope. By combining the expressive possibilities of Symbolism with elements of the realist chronotope, Bruges can also be read as a future city that performs itself. It thereby provides a different illustration of Pierre Bourdieu's argument that habitus can function as a form of symbolic capital. If, as Pascale Casanova argues, Brussels was the ‘capital of Symbolism’, in this reading Bruges constitutes an alternative Symbolist capital: another example of the capital and its double.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Theory (with a capital T) has become a sensitive point in literary studies. In this paper, firstly, we present a characterization of Theory as genre by investigating its fundamental contradictions, its experiential ground and its symbolic functions. Subsequently, we approach the risks that Theory presents to itself. Finally, we propose two strategies of reading responsibly which modify Theory without falling in its traps.

Abstract:
Reading Ulysses, all kinds of sounds impinge on our ears from all sides. They may be human or nonhuman, loud or low, soft or rough, funny or ridiculous. This paper will explore the different symbolic or metaphorical implications of two distinctive sounds: the church bells and the jingling sound. It seems that few Joycean scholars have attended to Joyce’s manipulating of sounds and their unique stylistic and aesthetic effects, and this paper from a perspective of cognitive phonetics and cognitive psychology, finds that the church bells are the overtone of death, and the jingling sound as well as the tapping sound reveals one major theme of the novel: sexuality.

This study aimed the process of learning to read quickly Student Class V Elementary School 001 Bulang, Batam, Indonesia. This research was pre experimental research using design pre-test and post-test group, samples involved in this study were 36 student. The technique used to collect data in this study is the test pre and post. The pretest was done after learning by symbolic technique. Learning was done for 4 weeks with 80 minutes for each learning session. Training activities was done about 40 minutes during each learning lesson. The result show the student that are able to quick-speed read are the enough which is 118.125 word per minute with reading comprehension content of 62.5% (0.65.5) in the pretest. In the post test, student’s reading speed increased to 179.20 words per minute with reading comprehension content of 73.3% (0.733). Effective speed reading (CAMP) on both tests are classified well at 111.633 words per minute on the pre-test and 179.05 words per minute on the post-test.

Abstract:
Always attuned to the dialectical relationship between literary productions and their sociohistorical contexts, the writings of Kenneth Burke refuse to essentialize literary discourse by making it a unique kind of language. This article maintains that Burke’s theory of literature and language as symbolic action is capable of encompassing both these intrinsic and extrinsic aspects without being reducible to either of them. Dramatism is his name for the theory, and its strength derives from its recognition of the necessarily ambiguous transaction between the system of signs and the frame of reference. Nevertheless, there is an essentializing tendency in Burke’s thought. Logology, a perspective on language that achieves fruition in The Rhetoric of Religion (1961), is symptomatic of this tendency. I argue that there is a perceptible discontinuity between the dramatistic idea that literature and language are to be considered as symbolic action and the logological idea that words about God bear a strong resemblance to words about words. Logology— words about words—discovers in theology—words about God—the perfectionism implicit in all discourse. I conclude, however, that despite his flirtation with linguistic essentialism, Burke never loses sight of the fact that words are first and foremost agents of power, that they are value-laden, ideologically motivated, and morally and emotionally weighted instruments of persuasion, performance, representation and purpose. As a form of symbolic action in the world, literature is inextricably linked to society and history—it is not a privileged form of language that exists in its own separate and autonomous sphere.

This research explored the roles of symbolic mapping and relational thinking in early reading and mathematics learning. It examined whether symbolic mapping and relational thinking were predictive of children’s reading and mathematics knowledge; the extent to which these domain-general cognitive scores explained correlations between the two domains; and whether these cognitive scores mediated relations between verbal intelligence and reading and mathematics. Furthermore, the present research explored whether home learning experiences were predictive of children’s symbolic, relational, reading, and mathematics scores. Participants in Study 1 were 86 preschool children from the Boston area. Children completed an assessment of verbal intelligence and a range of symbolic, relational, reading, and mathematics measures. Results showed that reading and mathematics scores were highly correlated; symbolic and relational scores were predictive of domain-specific performance; and symbolic and relational thinking mediated relations between verbal intelligence and reading and mathematics knowledge. These findings suggest that symbolic mapping and relational thinking may provide foundational cognitive skills that support early learning. Study 2 investigated whether home learning experiences were related to children’s symbolic, relational, reading, and mathematics scores. Participants were the 86 parents of children from Study 1. Parents reported the frequency with which they and their child engaged in various activities. Findings showed a significant relation between symbolic learning experiences and children’s reading and mathematics scores, but no relations between learning experiences and children’s symbolic or relational scores. There was a strong association between parents’ beliefs about the importance of mathematics for kindergarten readiness and children’s reading and mathematics scores. The results suggest that homes rich in symbolic learning experiences may best support children’s early learning, but parental beliefs about mathematics may differentiate highly effective and less effective learning environments. Taken together, these two studies contribute to our understanding of the constructs of symbolic and relational thinking as foundations for early learning in reading and mathematics. Findings are discussed in terms of their implications for improving school readiness via increased intentionality in early educational activities

This thesis investigates software as a textual and aesthetic object through research- based artistic practice and arts-based research. Its main particular interest is in how codes (computer codes, more specifically, but positioned in relation to other linguistic codes) exercise control. It engages Pierre Bourdieu's framework of language and symbolic power, Stuart Hall's encoding/decoding model, and Wendy Chun's notion of programability, aiming to discuss how to read codes in ways that create possible semantic and pragmatic negotiations with their imperatives. This document draws a model of reading that accounts for the sociological distribution of authority contained in software. It accepts ambiguity in face of invisibility, examines what is the ontological proximity of the code with the performative effect it generates, and how shifts and manipulations of this relational axis may work to oppose or divert prescriptive command structures. The goal of the project is to reflect upon how art practice can provide different modes of reading codes that may prove themselves pertinent to a less passive engagement with this subtle layer of control of everyday life.

Abstract:
Persons with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) appear to be slower to interpret the meaning of symbolic cues. This could be because they are slower to read the symbolic cue, or because they are slower to select a response to the symbolic cue. Groups of participants with autism (n=11), participants with Asperger syndrome (n=9), and typically developing children (n=16) completed four forced-choice reaction time tasks to examine whether persons with ASD are slower to process the symbolic cue or slower to prepare a response to the cue. The participants completed two control conditions and two orienting conditions using non-predictive central arrow cues. In the Target and Cue conditions, participants gave a speeded response to the appearance of either a target (x) or a central arrow. In the Variable Cue Exposure (VCE) condition, the exposure time to the cue varied (100, 300, 600, or 1000 ms) and was followed by a 100 ms blank screen before the presentation of the target. In the Constant Cue Exposure (CCE) condition, all cues were presented for 100 ms and were followed by blank screens that varied in presentation length (100, 300, 600, or 1000 ms) before the presentation of the target. The results indicated that each group showed a unique pattern of responding. In both the Target and Cue conditions, participants with autism were slower than both Asperger syndrome and typically developing children. In both the VCE and CCE conditions, behavioural effects of the cue were found for participants with autism at longer SOAs than for Asperger syndrome, and at longer SOAs for Asperger syndrome than for typically developing children. These findings support the notion that persons with ASDs are impaired in their preparation of responses as opposed to impaired in reading the meaning of the cue. Further, both the ASD groups showed stronger facilitation effects at longer SOAs than typically developing children, indicating that they were less able to use cue predictability to mediate responding. The differences found between autism and Asperger syndrome are discussed in terms of developmental and clinical distinctions between the groups, and implications for theory and research design.

Full text
Abstract:
This essay argues, with the help of Lacanian psychoanalysis, that Dorian Gray, the protagonist in Oscar Wilde’s novel, fails to abide by the rules governed by the culture of society. It is argued that Lacan’s theories about the mirror stage develop Dorian’s character and his realizations of his true self as part of the culture which shapes him. The mirror is represented by the four characters Basil Hallward, Lord Henry Wotton, Sibyl Vane, and Sibyl’s brother James. Basil, Henry, and Sibyl are all representations of different aspects of the mirror explained by Lacan’s theories, and these three characters help Dorian realize his true identity and self.

Abstract:
Denna uppsats belyser oavsiktliga konsekvenser som kan uppstå när skolpersonal rekommenderar läsvänliga böcker som skildrar utanförskap. Uppsatsen ämnar söka svar på om skolans pedagogiska åtgärd att rekommendera läsvänliga böcker kan ses som en oavsiktlig symbolisk våldföring samt undersöka vilka etiska dilemman som kan uppstå på grund av att böckerna skildrar utanförskap. Pierre Bourdieu och Jean-Claude Passerons teori om symboliskt våld och Donald Broadys teori om ”Den dolda läroplanen” visar att det finns en maktutövning mellan elever och lärare. Robert K. Mertons teori om oavsiktliga konsekvenser visar vilka konsekvenser som kan uppstå till följd av målmedvetna sociala handlingar. Den tidigare forskning som presenteras i uppsatsen pekar bland annat på att ungdomar ser ett samband mellan skolmisslyckanden och socialt utanförskap. Efter textanalys av Kim Olins bokserie samt blogginlägg skrivna av lärare och skolbibliotekarier har resultaten visat att tillhandahållandet av denna typ av läsvänlig litteratur kan ses som en form av symbolisk våldföring samt att det finns ett etiskt dilemma i böckernas innehåll i relation till den tänkta läsaren.
The aim of this essay is to seek an answer to if a schools educational measures in their recommendation of reader-friendly books can be seen as an utterance of symbolic violence and to examine what kind of ethical dilemmas can arise from a book that portrays social exclusion. Pierre Bourdieu and Jean-Claude Passeron’s theories of symbolic violence and Donald Broady’s theory of the hidden curriculum show that teachers wield and exercise a kind of power against and in relation to their students. Robert K. Merton’s theory about unintended consequences exemplifies the kinds of consequences that purposive social action can have. Previous research presented in this essay show that young people often see a correlation between academic failures and social exclusion. After a textual analysis of Kim Olin’s book series about Simon, and blog posts written by teachers and school librarians, our results show that a provision of this type of reader-friendly literature can be seen as an action of symbolic violence against the reciever, and that there is an ethical dilemma to be found in the books subject matter in relation to the intended reader.

Abstract:
La présente thèse propose une lecture renouvelée des miniatures du manuscrit Bruxelles, KBR, ms. 9631, contenant l’Histoire de Gérard de Nevers probablement enluminée par le Maître de Wavrin dans les années 1460 pour le duc de Bourgogne Philippe le Bon. Cette lecture renouvelée prend appui sur le symbolisme élargi du répertoire plastique et iconographique du Maître de Wavrin. En effet, l’enlumineur use de nombreux procédés pour doter les images de sens. Jeux sur la composition, sur les couleurs, mais aussi sur les mots, provoquent le lecteur-spectateur et l’invitent à faire une lecture dialoguée et ludique. Par le biais de l’équivoque, des pratiques sociales de lecture qui lui sont associées et dont la cour de Bourgogne était férue, l’œuvre s’inscrit naturellement dans le contexte artistique, littéraire et intellectuel de sa production. Selon le prisme d’une lecture oblique reposant sur la parole que suggèrent les images sous la forme d’énoncés prévisibles, l’analyse du cycle iconographique de Gérard de Nevers met au jour la lecture personnelle que l’enlumineur a faite du récit. L’humour et la grivoiserie deviennent des thématiques centrales. En effet, dans les images, le parcours initiatique du jeune chevalier est autant érotique que curial ou guerrier. En conséquence, les rapports de genres et la manière dont ils sont donnés à voir sont au cœur de la lecture que nous proposons et qui démontre que les miniatures du Maître de Wavrin ne reflètent pas les discours dominants ou la misogynie ambiante de l’époque
This dissertation offers a new interpretation of the manuscript Brussels, KBR, 9631 containing the Master of Wavrin’s miniatures of Gérard de Nevers. Probably produced in the 1460’s for the Duke of Burgundy Philip the Good, the images rely on symbolism in the very broad meaning of the term. The Master of Wavrin’s repertoire, based on both plastic and iconographic mechanisms, allows the artist to endow the images with meanings. Playing on compositions, colours and even on the meanings of words, he provokes the spectator and invites him to produce a voiced and dialogical reading of the iconographic cycle. Such an understanding of the manuscript’s function as a game is in keeping with the artistic, literary and intellectual context of the time and the well-know taste of the court for ambiguity and equivocality. A renewed - and oblique - reading of the miniatures, based on the utterances they suggest, allows us to perceive the personal reading the artist made of the text. Since the young knight’s wandering is, in the images, not only a courtly or warlike initiation but also an erotic one, humour and bawdiness become essential themes. As a consequence, the question of gender turns out to be central. And, as this dissertation demonstrates it, the Master of Wavrin’s images do not reflect the dominant discourses or misogynistic views of the time

Doutoramento em Estudos Culturais
Alfred Hitchcock realizou cinquenta e três filmes num período de cinquenta anos. Perante um corpus tão vasto e um interesse, popular e académico, contínuo na sua obra, um dos objetivos desta tese é tentar descobrir quais as componentes dos seus filmes que conduziram a este fascínio. Consequentemente, esta tese pretende refletir, através de uma análise que utiliza metodologias psicanalíticas, sobre dezanove destes filmes e elementos que neles se repetem. A abordagem psicanalítica foi escolhida para perceber se existe um uso coerente de certos elementos que cria um significado simbólico nos filmes em discussão. Haverá elementos usados de forma consistente, com um significado simbólico estável que podem ser interpretados simbolicamente da mesma forma em dois ou mais filmes? E, caso contrário, que diferenças de significado se nos põem? Esta análise é baseada em elementos estruturais repetidos na mise-en-scène dos filmes, tais como escadarias ou quartos de dormir, que foram usados como termos gerais com o intuito de facilitar a investigação dos méritos simbólicos que estes, e outras componentes relacionadas, possuem. As metodologias psicanalíticas usadas incluem conceitos-chave de Sigmund Freud, como o Ego, o Superego e o Id, e de Jacques Lacan, como o Imaginário, o Simbólico e o Real. Ao usar os conceitos que estes dois pensadores psicanalíticos desenvolveram, é esperado que certos padrões simbólicos e temáticos nos filmes de Hitchcock que foram no passado sub-explorados, surjam para uma discussão mais alargada
Alfred Hitchcock made fifty-three feature films over a fifty-year period. In view of such a large corpus and continued popular and academic interest in his work, one of the aims of this thesis is to attempt to discover what components in his films have led to such an interest. As a result, this thesis considers, through an analysis using psychoanalytic methodologies, nineteen of these films and elements which are repeated across these films. This psychoanalytic approach has been chosen to examine if there is a coherent use of certain elements to create symbolic meaning in the films under discussion. Namely, are there elements that can be interpreted symbolically being used consistently with the same stable symbolic meaning in two or more films? And if not, what differences in meaning are there? To aid with this analysis, repeated structural elements in the films’ mise-enscène, such as staircases or bedrooms, have been explored to investigate the symbolic readings they and other related components might offer. The psychoanalytic methodologies being used include key concepts of Sigmund Freud and Jacques Lacan, such the former’s Ego, Superego and Id and the latter’s Imaginary, Symbolic and Real. By using these, and other concepts these two psychoanalytic thinkers developed, it is hoped that certain symbolic and thematic patterns in Hitchcock’s films that have previously been underexplored can be brought to light and discussed.

AbstractMany individuals with visual impairments have residual vision that often remains underused by assistive technologies. Head-mounted augmented reality (AR) devices can provide assistance, by recoding difficult-to-perceive information into a visual format that is more accessible. Here, we evaluate symbolic and alphanumeric information representations for their efficiency and usability in two prototypical AR applications: namely, recognizing facial expressions of conversational partners and reading the time. We find that while AR provides a general benefit, the complexity of the visual representations has to be matched to the user’s visual acuity.

Abstract:
Abstract Using the universal grammar of reading and the system accommodation hypothesis (Perfetti, 2003) as theoretical frameworks, this chapter reviews a wide range of linguistic evidence that supports script relativity. Universality and specificity found according to script features are discussed with respect to the operating principle (alphabet vs. logography), psycholinguistic gran size (phoneme vs. syllable), graph configuration (linearity vs. block), symbolic representation (arbitrariness vs. iconic quality), graph complexity (traditional characters vs. simplified characters), and multi-script representation (phonogram Kana vs. Ideogram Kanji). Linguistic skills associated with reading in terms of orthography, phonology, morphology as well as cross-linguistic and cross-scriptal transfer are reviewed. Next, based on the reviewed literature, each criterion for causality from script to cognition through reading as a multifaceted cognitive activity is checked. Although the existing literature did not aim to directly test script relativity, research findings collectively suggest script effects on readers’ thought and cognition.

Abstract:
In this article, Stefan Schubert explores a trend in contemporary popular culture of combining elements of narrative and play via a case study of Neil Patrick Harris's Choose Your Own Autobiography. He introduces play and narrative as intermingling symbolic forms that come with particular affordances. The article then analyzes the 'mechanics' of Harris's text by investigating how these affordances shape the experience of reading the autobiography, and it connects these characteristics to the book's politics. Schubert argues that these ludonarrative elements allow the autobiography to portray the multiplicity of Harris's identity and to self-consciously highlight the constructedness of life-writing stories.

AbstractThe chapter outlines the undeniable importance of affects, friendships, collective and mutual care and support among LGBTQ people in Italy, reading them as forms of resistance to the general absence of a formal recognition of LGBTQ rights by the Italian state or to the limits of existing legislation. The author starts by introducing some relevant characteristics of the Italian socio-economic and political context and their consequences on the rights and the intimate lives of LGBTQ people. The text then explores the stories of participants, first describing the material and symbolic consequences of the lack of laws protecting LGBTQ rights and then identifying and unpacking some strategies through which participants cope in daily life, namely, working around the law and building networks of care.

Abstract:
Cain resumes the biblical story of the genesiacs brothers to recount it in a heterodox way. Based on the canonical biblical texts, the ethical perspective of David Maria Sassoli and in ideological discourses, José Saramago (re)reads the life of the murderous brother by a desacralizing bias, establishing a process of discursive reorganization of the Bible and, consequently, of Christianity – an ideology rooted in the social thought that the writer Portuguese intends to resolve. Our proposal is to probe such ethical assumptions questioned by the novel. Thus, we will focus on the figure of the protagonist to reflect on postures, symbolic representations, narrative functions and ideological expressiveness. Let us, through our reading, decommthe kaleidoscopic clash that the skilled narrator stages to present an ethical proposal in dialogue with renewing ideals of today's society.

Abstract:
A technical problem is identified and needs to be visualised through developing a graphic model and completing drawings. The basic knowledge of the writing and reading technical drawings is learnt in the Engineering Graphics course. In this paper drawings are treated as semiotic signs applying Peirce´s triadic model of representation. The representation of an object (future product) can take different forms: icons, indexes and symbols. On the other hand, for the image of an object, there must be three modes: iconic relation - firstness, indexical relation – secondness, and symbolic relation – thirdness. Various forms of graphic representation of the spur gear, i.e. icon, index and symbol, are presented.

Abstract:
This paper will argue that the connections that exist between architecture and political powers are located in representational functions of architecture. Representation is defined here as a culture-specific process of establishing the relationships between reality and the signs created to symbolize that reality. Architecture of Guatemala provides a unique material to study how representational constitution of symbolic places reflects an ideological struggle of two different cultures. To substantiate this point, I will expand on Tzvetan Todorov’s observations made in “The Conquest of America” and show how they could enhance our understanding of the symbolic function of architecture. The discussion of representational attributes and workings of architecture will be informed by a comparative reading of three cities in Guatemala: Mayan ruins in Tlkal, colonial city of Antigua, and indigenous Chichicastenango. My objective is to test the workings of this critical inquiry against the geography of power that these three cities represent.

Abstract:
The history of built environment reflects the rise and fall of political systems, their conflicts, social contradictions and ultimately, the state of being of particular civic societies over time. Former symbols of power, such as ancient monuments, palaces and churches still express their symbolic, economic, cultural and political value which constituted in different ages the motivation for their being. Today these are replaced by new symbols of contemporary economic forces which through skyscrapers express global tendency and power shifts. While such edifices are recognizable embodiments of power and political systems of their time, less visible, yet equally potent, are the shifts and voids in power relations. To fully comprehend the role of architecture in expressing and supporting power structures, it is important to question the concept of architecture as a mere act of presence (construction) and consider instead the void and its complementary aspects: absence, erasure and ideological need for demolition, as expressions of power. This paper considers power within the parameters of void, which extend beyond the notion of “tabula rasa” that has characterized many urban transformations. By considering the emblematic case of Via dell’ Impero, analyzing various ‘iconic’ works of architecture for their role in expressing power of institutions and individuals, and identifying dispersion as an underhanded way of exercising power, this paper proposes a more complex reading of urban transformations. It offers moments of reflection and a shift in research focus in terms of how the void is used today to express and support present power relations.

Abstract:
The Baldaquin of the Saint Peter’s Basilica in Rome represents the spiritual core of the building and holds a distinctive meaning for the complex and the people in it. This piece, defined for this research as architectural furniture, conditions the use of the space it belongs to, affects its scale, gives purpose to its routing, and defines the symbolic reading of the whole.This monumental object is used as a reference, and its personal, social, spatial, and functional implications are relayed across the field of architecture to the domestic space. An approach to furniture to create a home molded to the needs and desires of the individual and the society he belongs to is detected in the pieces of furniture by Ettore Sottsass and Joe Colombo, presented in the exhibition Italy, the new domestic landscape in 1972. This paper intends to indicate those concepts embodied in a selection of four contemporary housing renovation projects that have used furniture as a complex design element to shape homes.

Abstract:
In a world stressed by a cultural crisis, carachterised by excessive abstraction and virtuality (ex: R.Reich’s Symbolic-analysts or/and R. Florida’s Creatives), observing self built city constitute not an escape but an exploration to change our point of view and find a new path of development. Self building involves at any scale, a practical attitude and return to an psychosomatic interaction among inhabitants and built environment. Focusing in self-building can become a Slowskij’s “estragement” to reactivate different sensibilities, for a new philosophy in contemporary design. Morphological reading of self-built environments has a double importance: for self-built cities themselves, to give response to the need of social cohesion, for a restructuring that traduces these needs into building and transforms the plural individual needs into a collective urban structure; for the enrichment that this reading can give to the architectural community culture, a new panorama where we can search new path to go over the crisis; The paper focuses on the scales that goes from building and construction material scale to urban fabric scale. Starting from the observation of a brick’s furnace, through the observation of an original constructive system, up to the aggregation of each built organism in the urban fabric it will be possible to read and interpret the formative process and to evaluate, through design experience cases, some new path for the contemporary design that come from this interpretation of self-built: design as a formative process re-activation, artisanal-not authorial sensorial design; References G.

Abstract:
Comprehensive park management to fulfill the NPS mission requires an accurate inventory of the geologic features of a park unit, but Comprehensive park management to fulfill the NPS mission requires an accurate inventory of the geologic features of a park unit, but park managers may not have the needed information, geologic expertise, or means to complete such an undertaking; therefore, the Geologic Resources Inventory (GRI) provides information and resources to help park managers make decisions for visitor safety, planning and protection of infrastructure, and preservation of natural and cultural resources. Information in the GRI report may also be useful for interpretation. park managers may not have the needed information, geologic expertise, or means to complete such an undertaking; therefore, the Geologic Resources Inventory (GRI) provides information and resources to help park managers make decisions for visitor safety, planning and protection of infrastructure, and preservation of natural and cultural resources. Information in the GRI report may also be useful for interpretation. This report synthesizes discussions from a scoping meeting for Redwood National and State Parks (referred to as the “parks” throughout this report) held in 2004 and a follow-up conference call in 2019. Two GRI–compiled GIS data sets of the geology and geohazards of the parks are the principal deliverables of the GRI. The GRI GIS data are available on the GRI publications website http://go.nps.gov/gripubs and through the NPS Integrated Resource Management Applications (IRMA) portal https://irma.nps.gov/App/Portal/Home. Enter “GRI” as the search text and select a park from the unit list. Writing of this report was based on those data and the interpretations of the source map authors (see “GRI Products” and “Acknowledgements”). A geologic map poster illustrates the geology GRI GIS data set and serves as a primary figure for this GRI report. No poster was prepared for the geohazards GRI GIS data set. Additionally, figure 7 of this report illustrates the locations of the major geologic features in the parks. Unlike the poster, which is divided into a northern and southern portion to show detail while accommodating the parks’ length, figure 7 is a single-page, simplified map. The features labeled on figure 7 are discussed in the “Geologic History, Features, and Processes” chapter. To provide a context of geologic time, this report includes a geologic time scale (see "Geologic History, Features, and Processes"). The parks’ geologic story encompasses 200 million years, starting in the Jurassic Period. Following geologic practice, the time scale is set up like a stratigraphic column, with the oldest units at the bottom and the youngest units at the top. Organized in this manner, the geologic time scale table shows the relative ages of the rock units that underlie the parks and the unconsolidated deposits that lie at the surface. Reading the “Geologic Event” column in the table, from bottom to top, will provide a chronologic order of the parks’ geologic history. The time scale includes only the map units within the parks that also appear on the geologic map poster; that is, map units of the geohazards data are not included. Geology is a complex science with many specialized terms. This report provides definitions of geologic terms at first mention, typically in parentheses following the term. Geologic units in the GRI GIS data are referenced in this report using map unit symbols; for example, map unit KJfrc stands for the Cretaceous (K) and Jurassic (J) Franciscan Complex (f), Redwood Creek schist (rc), which underlies a portion of the Redwood Creek watershed (see “GRI Products”).
