Nature, Aristotle said, abhors a vacuum. He argued that a vacuum, once formed, would be immediately filled by the dense material surrounding it. Aristotle’s insights into vacuums in the physical world also apply to civil-military relations. Where a vacuum exists in domestic politics because the political parties are weak, unstable, or underdeveloped, the dense material that is the military may fill the void by staging an intervention into domestic politics. But when, as in the July 2016 coup attempt in Turkey, the civilian leaders themselves hold densely concentrated authority—in other words, are powerful, popular, and credible—their attempts to keep the military at bay are far more likely to succeed. Without a vacuum there is no void for the military to fill.

The Oceanic Collection at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science is one of the smallest collections contained within the museum’s World Ethnology Collection, yet it is perhaps one of the largest regional collections of Oceanic materials in the Rocky Mountains—second only to the Denver Art Museum. This article provides the first in-depth look at this collection through an accession-based approach of describing the objects, peoples, and histories found within it. In using the concepts of (re)discovery and wayfinding as material culture research methods, this paper presents a “voyage” through the Oceanic Collection facilitated by collections-based and archival research. The essay ends by reflecting on the Department of Anthropology’s mission statement to curate “the best understood and most ethically held anthropology collection in North America,” and on how this statement can be promulgated through further research on the Oceanic Collection, as well as future partnerships with diasporic Pacific Islander communities living in Colorado.

Methods for the creation and characteristics of composite materials reinforced with carbon, aramid and UHMWPE-fibers based on polymer matrices are considered. The properties of more than 50 composite materials are given. Technologies for their production from wound nonwoven and woven fiber reinforcements are proposed, with regulation of activation, composition and arrangement of components in the material. Experimental methods for studying polymer com- posites, such as wet-pull-out (W-P-O), full-pull-out (F-P-O) and impact break (IB) have been developed. It allows one to study the interfacial interaction of components during the creation of CM, regulate the activation of fibers by non-equilibrium low-temperature plasma and fluo rination, and analyze mechanisms of deformation and destruction of CM, in statics and upon impact with the help of uniform universal samples. Monograph – reference book is intended for scientific and engineering staff, teachers, stu- dents, graduate students, and inventors involved in the development, production and use of poly mer composite materials.

This chapter illustrates how the rise of renewed interest in precolonial South Asian history and literature has rendered the idea that South Asia lacked traditions of historical writing or historical consciousness. The only exception to this trend is the ‘indigenist’ position, heavily indebted to postcolonial studies, which argued that India's lack of historical consciousness should be seen as a virtue — history being an alien, European concept implicated in epistemic and material violence. Scholars working more closely with early materials, however, have developed a number of more refined positions on the question of historical writing in early India. For instance, scholars have claimed that historical consciousness and historical writing were not so much absent in early India as ‘denied’ by the epistemological assumptions of Brahmanical orthodoxy and its ideological quest to place the Veda outside of history.

El libro que Ud. tiene en sus manos, consiste en la publicación de los principales contenidos teóricos y actividades desarrolladas en la materia Culturas Populares y Deporte de la Tecnicatura Superior Universitaria en Periodismo Deportivo de la Facultad de Periodismo y Comunicación Social de la UNLP. En consecuencia, esta obra se escribe para estudiantes que cursan el segundo año de dicha carrera y con la finalidad de ser un material que se utilizará para el dictado de las clases. Como objetivo principal, se propone la articulación entre las prácticas académicas en comunicación social con las prácticas periodísticas deportivas. Es así como, nos sumerge en un ejercicio reflexivo que muestra la importancia que inviste la incorporación de conceptualizaciones “densas” como la cultura, culturas populares e identidad, para lograr agudizar la mirada del periodista a la hora de enfrentarse a los fenómenos sociales, posibilitando un desarrollo crítico de la profesión que solo lo otorga el espacio que ofrece la academia.

Within architecture, tacit knowledge plays a substantial role both within the design process and its reception. This book explores the tacit dimension of architecture in its aesthetic, material, cultural, design-based, and reflexive understanding of what we build. Much of architecture’s knowledge resides beneath the surface, in nonverbal instruments such as drawings and models that articulate the spatial imagination of the design process. Tacit knowledge, described in 1966 by Michael Polanyi as what we ‘can know but cannot tell’, often denotes knowledge that escapes quantifiable dimensions of research. Beginning in the studio, where students are guided into becoming architects, the book follows a path through the tacit knowledge present in models, materials, conceptual structures, and the design process, revealing how the tacit dimension leads to craftsmanship and the situated knowledge of architecture-in-the-world. Awareness of the tacit dimension helps to understand the many facets of the spaces we inhabit, from the ideas of the architect to the more hidden assumptions of our cultures.

Practicing Atheism is a cultural study of contemporary atheism, focusing on how atheists negotiate meanings and values through media. This book examines a variety of cultural products, both corporate driven and grassroots, that circulate messages about what atheism means—what ideas, values, affinities, and attitudes the term denotes. Through the creation, consumption, and exchange of this media, atheism gains positive content, the term signaling much more than lack of belief in god(s) for those who identify with the emergent culture. Primary source materials for this book include grassroots Internet communities, popular television programming, organized atheist events, and material culture representations of the movement, such as those found in atheist fan art. Practicing Atheism argues that atheist culture emerges from a unique tension with religion—a category atheists critique and resist but also, at times, imitate and approximate. Using a framework based on ritual studies, this book theorizes ambivalence, ambiguity, and “in-betweenness” as the essential condition of contemporary atheist culture.

Sweet Spots examines the dense meanings of interstitial spaces in New Orleans architecture and culture. “Interstitial space” refers not only to distinctive features of New Orleans’ houses—high ceilings, hidden passageways, balconies, courtyards and portes-de-cocheres, for example--but also to the relation of such features to the city’s streets and neighborhoods. Thirteen interdisciplinary contributors explore the roles played by “in-between” spaces in expressing and shaping intersections of race, class, gender, and environment in New Orleans. Sweet Spots is rich with visual materials, from maps, architectural renderings and surveys, to postcards, photographs, paintings and drawings.

This chapter is devoted to the rediscovery of Lucretius in the early modern period. Even though Shakespeare had no access to writings by Epicurus, there is a strong likelihood that he knew the De rerum natura by Lucretius, were it only via Montaigne’s Essays. It is Jonathan Pollock’s contention that the prevalence of weather imagery in Shakespeare’s later plays not only results from his propensity to cloud-gazing but also from his interest in Lucretius’s use of meteorological models in order to explain the creation and disintegration of material objects and living beings. Epicurean science recognizes only (atomic) matter and void, it denies the reality of a spiritual “substance” (God or an immortal soul). It would seem that Shakespeare uses Lucretian doctrine as a means of establishing dialectical oppositions: set against Lear’s naive paganism or Cordelia’s redemptive figure, for instance, atomism portrays a world without Divine Providence of any sort, subject to purely material forces.

This chapter includes some additional material on homotopies. In particular, for a smooth variety V, there exists an “inflation” homotopy, taking a simple point to the generic type of a small neighborhood of that point. This homotopy has an image that is properly a subset of unit vector V, and cannot be understood directly in terms of definable subsets of V. The image of this homotopy retraction has the merit of being contained in unit vector U for any dense Zariski open subset U of V. The chapter also proves the continuity of functions and homotopies using continuity criteria and constructs inflation homotopies before proving GAGA type results for connectedness. Additional results regarding the Zariski topology are given.

Inventories have long been used by historians as a source for investigating ‘worldly goods’; here, they are scrutinized anew for evidence of devotional practices in the home. Rosaries, little crosses, Agnus Dei, and coral are just some of the material objects that served to sacralize the home. These same items, densely recorded in the inventories of workshops and private households also figure in dowry contracts and registers of pawned goods. Such documents, drawn up by notaries, afford us new insights into the significance of material things at key moments in the life-cycle. Often invested with amuletic powers, many of the objects under investigation blur the boundaries between religion and superstition and draw attention to the profoundly protective role of domestic devotion.

O proxecto Bibliodiversidade, as bibliotecas como axentes para educar na diversidade afectivo-sexual, nace do CEXeF, o Centro de Estudos de Xénero e Feministas da Universidade da Coruña. En gran parte inspirado polas iniciativas das bibliotecas municipais da cidade, a prol da oferta e divulgación de material que representa a diversidade afectiva-sexual, este proxecto ten o obxectivo principal de promover o uso destes recursos como ferramenta didáctica nas aulas. Levouse a cabo durante Setembro-Decembro de 2021. Seleccionamos 18 libros para revisar e suxerir posibilidades orientadas a súa incorporación en propostas didácticas. Estes libros corresponden ás etapas educativas dende segundo ciclo de Educación Infantil ata o terceiro ciclo de Educación Primaria. Organizamos 8 mesas de traballo para analizar estes libros e xerar ideas sobre o seu uso nas aulas. A cada unha destas mesas, coordinadas por Ana-María Amigo Ventureira e Almudena Varela Suárez, convidamos a participar unha persoa representante do profesorado, o activismo e as bibliotecas municipais, co obxectivo de intercambiar ideas enraizadas nestes tres ámbitos de experiencia. Gravamos estes debates e tomamos notas extensivas, para logo elaborar esta Guía de Boas Prácticas. Así podemos non só recomendar e describir unha serie de libros que abordan a diversidade afectivo sexual e a ruptura de estereotipos de xénero para idades varias, senón tamén ofrecer algunhas ideas para incorporar estes materiais na práctica educativa. Polo tanto, para cada libro, elaborouse unha breve descrición, puntos positivos e aspectos que se debería cuestionar ou quizais compensar con accións pedagóxicas, apuntamentos para traballar na aula, outros materiais para acompañar o libro e posibles actividades. Ao final de todo, incluímos algúns consellos a ter en conta na selección de materiais, e proporcionamos recursos adicionais variados para seguir informándose e para apoiar a docencia.

The story of Earth’s biosphere is looked at in the round, with a view to understanding correctly terminology such as ‘survival of the fittest’, and getting sound metaphors to underpin our understanding of genetics and natural selection. There is no need to pick Machiavellian metaphors when other less loaded ones will do. The evolutionary process has proved to be creative; it involves a rather lovely use of humble materials to improvise new structures and thus gain access to deeper and richer forms of existence. It is an open-handed process; its random element is a positive promoter of its freedom. Within this same process is the pain and tragedy of all life. None of this denies the truths of arithmetic or engineering; neither does it deny the truths of moral insight and social existence. Our meaning before God and each other is worked out within this tapestry.

In 2008, the South African Broadcasting Corporation (SABC) aired four updatings of Shakespeare’s plays in vernacular languages, using local settings and black South African actors. This chapter offers an analysis of three of these cultural appropriations in order to illustrate the two-way traffic between the global and the local. In this exchange, the raw materials of Shakespeare’s texts are reassembled to work out local anxieties about national identity, race, class, and gender in contemporary South Africa. This chapter probes the relationship of the global to the local in a setting dense with particularities of histories, language practice, and gender, class, and race hierarchies. Shakespeare’s role as a globalized public property, performances disseminated through electronic technologies and international film and television codes, facilitates a complex indigenizing process in post-apartheid South Africa as global and local engage in reciprocal artistic transformation.

The book now looks at a series of passages, most of them rhythmically dense. These show the rhythmic system, and Plutarch’s writing, at its most intense or heavily loaded, and they thus throw light on both of them. Plutarch’s actual writing has not been very closely considered, unlike so many other aspects of him. A commentary format is used for the discussion; the analysis always grows out of the rhythm, but it shows how rhythm bears on the wider interpretation of passages. The first commentary comes from the Life of Timoleon, and provides a climactic encapsulation of his achievements in bringing freedom and peace to Sicily. Plutarch is here seen turning Timaeus or other source-material into exultant rhythmic prose.

What strategies are visual artists and filmmakers using to criticise the social and economic conditions shaping our particular historical moment? This question is answered by considering the methods and political implications of artists or filmmakers working in a contemporary western art context today. Leading into extended analyses of works by Frances Barrett, Claire Denis, Angela Brennan, and Alex Monteith, the book considers two forces that have informed contemporary artmaking: the economic conditions that began changing social realities from the 1970s forward; and the current tendency of the political aesthetic to move away from direct political content or didacticism to a concern for the sensate effects of materials. This is framed by Jacques Rancière’s ‘distribution of the sensible’ and Walter Benjamin’s historical materialism. As historical ground for understanding the contemporary condition, Artmaking in the Age of Global Economics pays particular attention to the divisions that opened up between progressive writers, theorists and artists in the late 20^th century. Suggesting an alternative approach to understanding art’s historical antecedents, it avoids received art-historical narratives or canonical figures, refuting both the autonomy of art as well as the separation of artist from the work they produce. It locates, instead, contemporary art in a worldly context of responsibility that opens up to an ethics of practice. [211]

Surveying the history of Native Americans of the South from ancient times through the early twenty-first century, this chapter draws on oral tradition, material culture, climatology, and historical documents. Like all Native North Americans, Southern Indians have a dynamic past. They repeatedly adapted their societies to meet challenges arising from climate change 10,000 years ago, population growth during the Mississippian era, population collapse due to the introduction of new diseases following contact, warfare, and slaving in the colonial era, Indian removal, and ongoing US racial discrimination and imperialism. While pointing out diversity within the region, as well as the ties that linked Southern Indians to other people and places over time, this chapter also marks the cultural characteristics that make Native peoples of the South a distinctive group, namely their traditions of matrilineal kinship, dense populations, their long history of agriculture, and distinctive art forms and architecture.

Oxford Studies in Ancient Philosophy provides, twice each year, a collection of the best current work in the field of ancient philosophy. Each volume features original essays that contribute to an understanding of a wide range of themes and problems in all periods of ancient Greek and Roman philosophy, from the beginnings to the threshold of the Middle Ages. From its first volume in 1983, OSAP has been a highly influential venue for work in the field, and has often featured essays of substantial length as well as critical essays on books of distinctive importance. Volume LIII contains: an article on several of Zeno of Elea’s paradoxes and the nihilist interpretation of Eudemus of Rhodes; an article on the coherence of Thrasymachus’ challenge in Plato’s Republic book 1; another on Plato’s treatment of perceptual content in the Theaetetus and the Phaedo; an article on why Aristotle thinks that hypotheses are material causes of conclusions, and another on why he denies shame is a virtue; and a book review of a new edition of a work possibly by Apuleius and Middle Platonist political philosophy.

This chapter describes a considered, thematic, and stylistic account of the viewing experiences of three films by Paul Thomas Anderson and their backgrounds—Punch-Drunk Love (2002), There Will Be Blood (2007), and The Master (2012). Writer Geoffrey O'Brien, in his essay on The Master, captures the feel of Anderson's recurring landscape of disconnection. He goes on to speak of the expressionist treatment of milieu in the films, as though in each narrative there is an attempt both to acknowledge the claims of material reality and at the same time to reconfigure the real. The chapter also examines the contradictory pressures at work in the avowedly autobiographical, densely verbal Magnolia, which may have necessitated a change in Anderson's method and technique in the films that followed.

The Oxford Handbook of Musical Repatriation is an edited volume comprising thirty-eight chapters from contributors working in regions all over the world. This collection highlights studies exploring sonic repatriation in its broadest sense in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. “Sonic” or “musical” repatriation refers primarily to the return of audiovisual archival materials to the communities from which they were initially recorded or collected. Repatriation is overtly guided by an ethical mandate to “return,” providing reconnection and Indigenous control and access to cultural materials—but as the chapters in this collection reveal, there are more dimensions to repatriation than can be described by simply “giving back” or returning archives to their “homelands.” The volume provides a dynamic and densely layered collection of stories and critical questions for anyone engaged or interested in archival work and repatriation projects. Its chapters constitute a body of thoughtful explorations that demonstrate through contemporary examples how negotiating ownership of and access to sonic heritage crosscuts issues involving (and challenges assumptions regarding) memory, identity, history, power, agency, research, scholarship, preservation, performance, distribution, legitimacy, commodification, curation, decoloniality, and sustainability. These examples set a precedent for musical repatriation, while also problematizing the historically transactional nature of returning archives. The Handbook explores these interdisciplinary streams and provides a dynamic space for critical analysis of archives and musical repatriation.

The situation that gave rise to a crisis of atheism was in part literary, in part ideological. The rediscovery of Lucretius’ De rerum natura and Book X of Diogenes Laertius’ Lives of Eminent Philosophers brought the philosophy of Epicurus to prominence and led to a revival of ancient atomism. These works became textbooks for the new mechanical philosophy of nature, which was a revival of ancient Greek atomism, and provided reasons and arguments for materialism and a naturalized ethics. They denied divine creation and providence and the future life, attributing such beliefs to mere superstition. Because these views were integral to the new philosophy, they could not be ignored. The upshot of all this was a crisis in belief.

This book challenges the claim that winning “hearts and minds” is critical to successful counterinsurgency campaigns. Good governance, this conventional wisdom holds, gains the besieged government popular support, denies support to the insurgency, and makes military victory possible. The book argues that major counterinsurgent successes since World War II have resulted not through democratic reforms but rather through the use of military force against civilians and the co-optation of rival elites. The book offers new analyses of five historical cases frequently held up as examples of the effectiveness of good governance in ending rebellions — the Malayan Emergency, the Greek Civil War, the Huk Rebellion in the Philippines, the Dhofar rebellion in Oman, and the Salvadoran Civil War — to show that, although unpalatable, it was really brutal repression and bribery that brought each conflict to an end. By showing how compellence works in intrastate conflicts, the book makes clear that whether or not the international community decides these human, moral, and material costs are acceptable, responsible policymaking requires recognizing the actual components of counterinsurgent success — and the limited influence that external powers have over the tactics of counterinsurgent elites.

One of the most fundamental features of the universe is randomness or chance, even if some religions have sought to deny its existence by attributing every unexpected turn of events to the mystery of divine will. Turning randomness into purpose is one of the primary tasks of enchantment. This chapter explores the history of material devices and ideas about chance from the ancient world to the present. It shows how chance is a vital ingredient in enchantment, whether it is overtly used in casting lots or the random opening of a book, or staunchly denied in the narrative work of resolving the mysteries of providence. The agency of images in the process propels the interpretation of tarot cards or reveals divine will in apparitions. Marks become signs in the practices of enchantment, and images at work make the world go one’s way.

This chapter examines the role played by woodcutters, carpenters, cabinetmakers, and stonemasons in St. Louis during its earliest years, 1766–1770. Charles E. Peterson, one of the founding fathers of preservation architecture in the United States, wrote three seminal pieces about colonial architecture in the middle Mississippi Valley. Since Peterson, however, there has been no comprehensive study on Illinois Country architecture. Drawing largely on extant manuscripts in the archives of the Missouri History Museum, this chapter compares St. Louis's early buildings with those in other Illinois Country communities (Kaskaskia and Ste. Genevieve), those on the Gulf Coast, and those in French Canada. It also looks at a number of prominent woodworkers in early St. Louis, including Jacques Denis and Pierre Lupien dit Baron. Finally, it considers some of the features of Illinois Country houses and the materials used in their construction, primarily timber.
