Abstract:
Abstract We lost a man - a person always rational, always free and gifted with the soul. We lost a man mainly in the space of language. Instead of a human is “individual” - a measure. This process has already accelerated in the second half of the 19th century. There is no human being anymore, there are individuals with a definable quality, and to segregate and destroy those who do not correspond to the desired image. Also in globally meant social aid. There is a need to go back to seeing the face of each human. Restore everyone.

Abstract:
The Rudolf Kastner trial was one of the three great scandals that rocked Israeli party politics in the 1950s (the others were the negotiations with Germany for Holocaust reparations and the so-called “Lavon affair”). Although Leora Bilsky describes it as an “almost forgotten trial,” it has not been forgotten by subsequent writers: it makes an important cameo appearance in Arendt's Eichmann in Jerusalem; it features prominently in Tom Segev's The Seventh Million (1991); Yehuda Bauer's Jews for Sale? (1994) takes pains to refute the charges against Kastner; and it inspired two novels—Amos Elon's Timetable (1980) and Neil Gordon's cerebral thriller The Sacrifice of Isaac (1995). But the legal opinions have never until now attracted the thought or analysis they warrant, and Bilsky deserves gratitude for remedying this omission. With admirable insight and ingenuity, Bilsky focuses on the construction of the legal opinions as a form of literature. Her reading of Judge Halevi's and Justice Agranat's opinions centers on the way in which law is driven by metaphor—in Halevi's case, the metaphor of contract; in Agranat's, the metaphor of administrative decision making. Her article is a major contribution to our understanding of the Kastner case and to the way that, in a situation of intense moral ambiguity, legal analysis can be predetermined by a choice of metaphors.

Full text
Abstract:
The subject of this thesis is Satan in Milton's Paradise Lost. I begin by observing how major critics and poets from Dryden on have understood this wonderful yet controversial character in Milton's greatest poem. After identifying the Satanist and anti-Satanist schools in this tradition and some of the general features of each school, I proceed to argue my central claim: by virtue of his consciousness, will, reason, and passion, Satan is a character whose nature is not in fact supernatural but fundamentally and essentially the same as that of an exceptional human being. I justify this claim by treating each of these attributes in separate chapters (the first chapter documents both consciousness and will). In making this argument, I take issue with early anti-Satanists, such as Dryden, Addison, Blair, and Johnson, and later anti-Satanists, such as Williams, Lewis, Musgrove, and Fish who fail to recognise Satan's exceptional human qualities, especially his reason. Though I align myself with some of the Satanists I discuss in the opening chapter, I also distinguish myself from them by first providing a distinct description of the specific nature of Satan's consciousness, will, reason, and passion. In so doing, I advance the Satanist critics' understanding of Satan by demonstrating that when all these particular features of Satan's character are taken together he can be seen as an exceptional human being. Thus, I explicitly argue for a claim that Satanists either gloss over or simply assume: Satan is essentially human. And it is because he is essentially human that Johnson is mistaken in claiming that the poem lacks human interest: we are interested in Satan because Satan is like us.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis handles a number of passages in the poems of Dryden and Pope which show that both poets had been deeply impressed by Paradise Lost. These passages are so various and numerous (this is one of the principal claims to novelty of this thesis) that it is no longer possible to maintain that Milton was in different ways an isolated figure. Secondly, the effect on both poets of these passages they admired in Paradise Lost is such as to justify the claim that in important respects Milton made Dryden and Pope. The principal point of this thesis is to provide evidence suggesting that the implied verdict on Paradise Lost which emerges from Dryden's and Pope's manifold uses of the poem in producing their own poetry, is radically unlike any of the verdicts pronounced on Paradise Lost by the most gifted readers of poetry during the years from Wordsworth's death down to the present. In Dryden and Pope there was a common underlying estimate of the permanent worth of Paradise Lost. This finding entails an examination of the nature and development of the divergent tradition, which is traced back to a point in the middle years of the nineteenth century, and has been maintained without substantial addition or modification until recent times. However, the bulk of the thesis is not polemical. God, Man and Nature are the topics which principally stirred the two poets in their reading of Paradise Lost. Nevertheless, neither Dryden nor Pope separated their feelings for Milton's Nature from their feelings for Milton's Man and Milton's God. The nature found by Dryden and Pope was a nature crowned by human nature, but was invisible until they were confronted by the intermingling and interpenetration of the human and the divine. Common to Dryden and Pope was the conviction that Paradise Lost was a unique creation and unique above all because these three elements were so interrelated, and one could never be isolated without involving all the others. The whole question of what constitutes evidence of Dryden's and Pope's contact with Paradise Lost is examined in a separate appendix. Further appendices include lists of all the instances known to me.

Full text
Abstract:
This study arranges symptoms of polarity into a causal sequence# beginning with the origin of contrarieties and ending with the ultimate effect. The origin is considered as the fall of man, denoting both a mythic concept and a specific act of betrayal. This study argues that a sense of separateness precedes the fall or act of separation; the act of separation produces various kinds of fragmentation; and the fragments are reunited through paradox. Therefore, a causal relationship exists between the "fall" motif and the concept of paradox.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis is a study of the influence exerted by John Milton's Paradise Lost on James Joyce's A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man. Its main character, Stephen Dedalus, narrates some remarkable passages of his life, through his childhood and young age, and his passage from a state of innocence to his first sinful experiences, being the first taken by the hands of a woman. This work focuses on Stephen's sins and repentance, his unwillingness to serve, his non serviam, and the whole course of his sins, in which I claim to have been influenced by Milton's characters in Paradise Lost, Adam, Eve, and Satan. The concepts and theories used to define influence used in this work are Harold Bloom's revisionary ratios, Patrick Colm Hogan's psychology and economy of influence, and Luiz Fernando Ferreira Sá's notion of influence as influx and inflow. A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man is Joyce's tentative to propose an alternative to the ones who choose not to serve, as Milton failed to do, and be a true artificer of wor(l)ds.

Abstract:
AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF JAIME MOSS for the Master of Fine Arts degree in MASS COMMUNICATIONS AND MEDIA ARTS, presented on FEBRUARY 13TH, 2014 at Southern Illinois University Carbondale. TITLE: ARCHIVING LOSS: THE PAPER MAN BEHIND THE MASK MAJOR PROFESSOR: Sarah Lewison, H.D. Motyl, Fern Logan, Dru Vratil This paper is companion to the narrative short, The Man Who Burned Paper. Both this paper and the film deal with the subject of identity loss as an archive, building on the work of sociologists Andrew J. Weigert and Ross Hastings. Drawing on several sources, including the work of literary scholars, affect theorists, and an excerpt from This American Life, this paper explores what it is to create and lose an identity both experimentally and existentially. It develops beyond this exploration by reconstructing it through a cinematic format that uses memories, flashbacks, and body doubles to narrate one man's identity construction and his journey to come to terms with its loss. It concludes that while identity loss is a unique experience, reflecting upon the loss and dysfunction it can bring can create space to understand the sorrow and pain that accompanies it. It is with hope that the findings discovered from this deeply personal and challenging process will act as a guide towards future actions that allow for new opportunities that improve the quality of life and a broader mindset.

Abstract This chapter identifies several negative social, cultural and environmental impacts brought about by degrowth of tourism on the Isle of Man, UK. It is pointed out that although the local economy has successfully transitioned to new industries, mainly offering financial services to the international wealthy and global business, the vernacular architecture, community facilities and natural landscapes have been undermined by the loss of tourist interest. Also, the sense of peripherality has been increased as tourism driven connections and exchanges have been lost. For this reason it is argued that in the case of the Isle of Man cautions against the downsides of tourism degrowth should be taken and degrowth needs to be carefully managed if the negative consequences of degrowth are to be appreciated and mitigated.

Abstract:
Luosha Haishi 羅殺海市 (Lz 132) is a very emblematic tale of Pu Songling’s (蒲松齡, 1640–1715), as it involves emblematic themes of Liaozhai zhiyi (聊齋誌異): a critical view of society, an adventure into enchanted lands, and a complex relationship to an independent, powerful woman. The tale tells about the journey of a man who, after having been lost at sea, visits two imaginary worlds. Luosha Haishi reveals its originality when comparing both these places. The first one, the Country of Rakshasas, is a state in which physical appearance determines one’s social status. This society is a satirical portrayal mirroring Pu’s vision of Qing China officialdom. Conversely, the City of the Sea, the character’s second place of stay, is a utopian undersea place where the character knows immediate success. Luosha Haishi thus makes the bitter statement of the impossibility to access glory and richness when one does not wish to hide behind appearances, while for it to occur it would require an ideal world that exists only in imagination.

Abstract:
Artificial or “bionic” limbs have been the subject of considerable research, TV shows, and dreams by children. The “Six Million Dollar Man” show was about a man who received artificial limbs after his own were lost in an accident. To get students interested in practical engineering, the current work showcases a simple artificial arm that produces greater force than a typical man, demonstrates the capability of Rubber Muscle Actuators (RMA), and provides a portable “arm wrestling platform” for student recruitment efforts. The actuators for “Kingsville Arm One & Two” are McKibben-like actuators made from fiber-reinforced elastomeric composites. These actuators offer excellent strength-to-weight ratios and contract similar to a human muscle. RMAs produce greater force and have less “blow-outs” than typical McKibben actuators because of optimized braid angles and ends that transfer loads through the braid fibers. Kingsville Arm One (KA1) was developed in just two weeks. It consisted of carbon/fiberglass/epoxy composite tubular bones, a metal clevis “elbow” and four RMAs. With considerable effort, a very large student was able to overcome the force generated in an “arm wrestling” contest. KA1’s actuators had end attachments that transferred loads well and enabled flexibility, but easily tore and had air leaks. Kingsville Arm Two (KA2) had new “bones” and RMAs. Although slightly smaller diameters, the KA2 RMAs produced comparable forces to the KA1 RMAs and had molded end attachments. The rigid ends did not allow as much rotation as expected and necessitated using just 2 RMAs. With only two RMAs, KA2 produced approximately the same “arm strength” as KA1. Future work will focus on flexible but durable RMA molded ends, life-like skins and a realistic “hand.”

Abstract:
Vehicles traveling through busy roads and highways waste a huge portion of their kinetic energy. Up to five percent of the car’s energy is lost due to braking. In an effort to save energy it is possible to harvest some of this lost energy through a mechanical device built into the road. With over 1 billion cars, there is a huge potential for a man made untapped energy to be collected and harvested. This presentation focuses on designing a mechanical system that collects the energy of cars passing over a depressible flapping road rumble panel. As the car passes over the flap, the panel depresses and turns a directional shaft. The energy of many panels is collected and is summed up in a continuously turning flywheel. The collected mechanical energy can then be converted into electrical energy. The panels would be located where car drivers encounter deceleration ramps, when approaching a stop sign or entering a toll plaza. The analysis of this active road rumbles concept involved 1) designing a prototype using a computer drawing software such as SolidWorks, then 2) modeling the system mathematically to figure out all the important and intervening parameters factoring in the expression of the equation of motion of such systems, and then finally 3) building a physical prototype to analyzes the performances of such systems. The SolidWorks drawings for the model have been created. The dynamical model used free body diagrams and Newton’s second laws to determine the different loads and the equation of motion of the road rumble system. The mathematical model took into consideration the parameters of a shock absorber with a spring/mass/damper system. The kinematic equations of the shaft and flywheels were used to determine the speed and acceleration of the power train. A physical prototype was tested manually for time and frequency responses. It has been found that the energy collecting flywheel is lightly damped and loses a small part of its energy to friction. A feasibility study was conducted to evaluate the economic viability of such system. The harvested energy was estimated by measuring the RPM of the flywheel, and it was found that such system have an acceptable return on the investment. It is envisioned that such harvesting energy systems can be used in many ways one of them is to empty a huge offshore silo tank filled with sea water and producing peak electrical energy by allowing the sea water back into the silo through a hydraulic turbine.

Abstract:
Communal forests occupy one million hectares in the Northern of Portugal and Galicia. Since centuries ago, “Baldios” and “Montes Veciñais en Man Común” (MVMC) played an essential function in the economy of their owner communities. This role was lost all through the last century due to the enormous afforestation and the decrease of agriculture. The restitution of democratic regimes returned the communal forests tenure to the communities. Given the extension and high average area, our paper aims to research its potentialities and limitations of contribution to rural development. Two case studies, one in North Portugal and another one in Galicia, allow identifying the individual and collective traditional uses and the achievements made with revenues linked. Both Galician and Portuguese realities exhibit similarities and complementary benefits, and needing social and economic innovation to make a better use of rural resilience. Communal lands and small-scale business projects could maintain the network of local produce markets with attractive aesthetic values as well as biodiversity conservation. The comparison of the different criteria shows economic aspects are the most valorised by the stakeholders. The management decision of collective forests was the alternative mixed by the communities and the Forestry Services as the best one to complete the main objective of sustainable rural development. As a final conclusion of our work, remarking that the communities owning these forests currently seem to have the conditions to successfully manage their properties if the commoners are able to mobilize and adequate organize the communities.

Abstract:
This report sheds light on challenges faced by Transgender persons in Indian prisons. The report analyses the international and legal frameworks in the country which provide the foundation for policy formulations with regard to confinement of LGBT+ persons, with particular reference to the Transgender community. This report also documents the responses received to right to information requests filed to prison headquarters across the country, which in addition to providing the number of Transgender prisoners in Indian prisons between 1st May 2018 to 30th April 2019, also provides relevant information on compliance within prisons with existing legal frameworks relevant to protecting the rights of Transgender persons in prisons, especially in terms of recognition of a third gender, allocation of wards, search procedures, efforts towards capacity building of prison administrators etc. The finalisation of this report has involved an intense consultative process with individuals and experts, including representatives from the community, community-based organisations as well as researcher and academicians working on this issue. This report aims to enhance the understanding of these issues among stakeholders such as prison administrators, judicial officers, lawyers, legal service providers as well as other non-state actors. It is aimed at better informed policy making, and ensuring that decisions made with respect to LGBTI+ persons in prisons recognize and are sensitive of their rights and special needs.

Abstract:
In this paper we examine the evolution of the relation between ethics and economics. Mainly after the financial crisis of 2008, many economists, scholars, and students felt the need to find answers that were not given by the dominant school of thought in economics. Some of these answers have been provided, since the birth of economics as an independent field, from ethics and moral philosophy. Nevertheless, since the mathematisation of economics and the departure from the field of political economy, which once held together economics, philosophy, history and political science, ethics and moral philosophy have lost their role in the economics’ discussions. Three are the main theories of morality: utilitarianism, rule-based ethics and virtue ethics. The neoclassical economic model has indeed chosen one of the three to justify itself, yet it has forgotten —deliberately or not— to involve the other two. Utilitarianism has been translated to a cost benefit analysis that fits the “homo economicus” and selfish portrait of humankind and while contemporary capitalism recognizes Adam Smith as its father it does not seem to recognize or remember not only the rest of the Scottish Enlightenment’s great minds, but also Smith’s Theory of Moral Sentiments. In conclusion, if ethics is to play a role in the formation of a postcapitalist economic theory and help it escape the hopeless quest for a Wertfreiheit, then the one-dimensional selection and interpretation of ethics and morality by economists cannot lead to justified conclusions about the decision-making process.

Full text
Abstract:
Sublimation of ice is rate-controlled by vapor transport away from its outer surface and may have generated landforms on Mars. In ice-cemented ground (permafrost), the lag of soil particles remaining after ice loss decreases subsequent sublimation. Varying soil-ice ratios lead to differential lag development. Here we report 52 years of sublimation measurements from a permafrost tunnel near Fairbanks, Alaska, and constrain models of sublimation, diffusion through porous soil, and lag formation. We derive the first long-term in situ effective diffusion coefficient of ice-free loess, a Mars analog soil, of 9.05 × 10⁻⁶ m² s⁻¹, ~5× larger than past theoretical studies. Exposed ice-wedge sublimation proceeds ~4× faster than predicted from analogy to heat loss by buoyant convection, a theory frequently employed in Mars studies. Our results can be used to map near-surface ice-content differences, identify surface processes controlling landform formation and morphology, and identify target landing sites for human exploration of Mars.

Kállai, Péter. How to Lose (the Almost) Guaranteed Representation – Recent Developments concerning Roma Parliamentary Representation in Hungary. European Centre for Minority Issues, March 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.53779/djpm0924.

Full text
Abstract:
As the Roma National Self-Government in Hungary failed to draw up its electoral list for the 2022 elections, it seemed that nobody would represent the most populous minority in Parliament; at least not within the framework of the preferential mandate system. This blog post covers the circumstances and developments behind this paradoxical situation and explains how uncompromising political wings have caused this outcome. The incumbent Roma minority advocate in Parliament and his allies worked hard to prevent anyone else from obtaining the first position on the electoral list and thus becoming a member of parliament, while the other political wing within the Roma self-government ruled out the re-election of the sitting advocate. As the author points out, however, the main problem lies in the very nature of the system, namely in the lack of real internal competition. Interestingly, as recent developments show, other Roma politicians may get elected on the party lists of both sides of the political spectrum.
