Music And Language: Exploring An Artificial Music Grammar, Erica R. Knowles
Music And Language: Exploring An Artificial Music Grammar, Erica R. Knowles
Seton Hall University Dissertations and Theses (ETDs)
Research regarding the brain mechanisms that underlie music and language processing supports two main interpretations: domain-specificity and domain-generality. Evidence from neuropsychology literature, specifically from amusia research, supports domain-specific mechanisms (Peretz & Coltheart, 2003) but recent neuroimaging and behavioral evidence supports overlapping mechanisms, especially for syntax processing (Patel, 2008). The present study used an artificial music grammar in order to test participants' ability to learn a new music grammar as well as to observe a possible interaction between music and language syntax processing. Although participants were able to learn the artificial music grammar, a language task was not affected by errors …

Seton Hall University Dissertations and Theses (ETDs)

Strategic Solutions To Museum Repatriation Issues: Past, Present, Future, Damiano N. Spano
Seton Hall University Dissertations and Theses (ETDs)
Over the last twenty years, international treaties and resolutions have attempted to define cultural property and reach a unilateral consensus regarding the return of these objects. The demand for repatriation has become louder and more common as claims have forced museums to find strategic solutions to reparation issues when the care and safety of objects are at risk. The history of strategic solutions to reparation is not one solely based in the contemporary, it stretches to the past, is being written today, and will remain an issue of the future. Strategic solutions have benefited both the museum and the claimant …
