A Childe Bibliography: A Hand-List Of The Works Of Vere Gordon Childe, Terry Irving, Peter Gathercole

Terence H Irving, Dr (Terry)

There are four sections: (i) books and monographs; (ii) articles and chapters; (iii) reviews; and …

Konnichiwa From Australia, Masako Gavin, Masanori Matsumoto

Masako Gavin

Extract:

Although many Japanese grammar books are available to Australian students, we have found that there are only a few thorough workbooks which provide communicative and written activities to reinforce grammar elements covered in class.

Konnichiwa from Australia has been prepared to supplement this need and this is volume one to four. Although primarily designed for 1st and 2nd year university students leading to Intermediate Japanese, it is also suitable for a wider scope of other learners in the community- secondary schools, Japanese courses in language schools, colleges, technical institutes and other tertiary institutions.

Persistence In Japanese Language Study And Motivation, Masanori Matsumoto

Masanori Matsumoto

The diminishing number of students in second language learning (SLL) at more advanced level of study is regarded as a general problem widely recognized by both teachers and researchers in second language acquisition (SLA) (Ellis, 1994: 508). This indicates that a number of students who start learning a second language terminate the study before they acquire a high proficiency. As Ramage (1990) states, SLL is a long lasting mental and physical enterprise and it usually takes years in order to acquire a command of the language. Given this, persistence in language study should be one of the most important factors …

Putting Children On The Map: Patterning Children's Behavior And Misbehavior In Graffiti From Roman Campania, Katherine Huntley

Katherine V. Huntley

One of the major difficulties in studying children in the ancient world is the identification of their behavioral patterns in the archaeological record. Some argue that children’s activities are random and spontaneous and thus inaccessible to archaeologists (e.g. Hammond and Hammond 1981). Others note that children in the ancient Roman world mostly lacked distinctive roles, spaces and material culture, making evidence of their activities difficult to distinguish from those of adults (e.g. Wallace-Hadrill 1996). This paper tries to shift from the object-focused approach to childhood often employed in Roman archaeology in favor of directly focusing on the activities of children. …

Monsters And The Moral Imagination, Stephen Asma

Stephen T Asma

The article discusses the cultural interest in monsters in the 21st century. The author speculates on the reasons for the interest, citing anxiety after the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, the war in Iraq, or the global financial crisis of 2008-2009. He notes a conference in September 2009 at the University of Oxford entitled "Monsters and the Monstrous." Cultural uses of monsters, he notes, include scolding ourselves for failure to be inclusive, the medievals' punishment for the sin of pride, or the ancient Greeks' warnings of impending calamity. He notes that monster stories can promote the individual's thought about what …

The United States And Iran, Michael Zirinsky

Michael Zirinsky

Since the 1978-79 revolution and emergence of an Islamic Republic, America has been transfixed by images of Iran fomenting terror against the US. Ironically, before 1978 most Americans knew nothing about Iran, leading President Carter famously to praise it, on the eve of upheaval, as an island of stability in the midst of a sea of turmoil. Sad to say, many Iranians also have a hostile view of America, based not on the beneficent idealism which characterized US policy in the Middle East before the Second World War, but on American Cold War activism, including sponsoring a 1953 coup d’etat …

Focalizing On The Fringe: Foucault And Contemporary French-Language Film (Panel Presentation), Mariah Devereux Herbeck

Mariah E. Devereux Herbeck

In the last twenty-five years, a plethora of French and Francophone directors have made films that feature characters marginalized by their socio-economic status, race, religion and / or gender, thus taking these individuals’ stories out of the fringe and placing them center-stage on the big screen. In fact, a trend can be traced in these films whereby when marginalized characters’ narratives are privileged, so-called norms of both filmmaking and society are often examined and questioned. Through the optic of Foucault’s theories of the Panopticon (Discipline and Punish: The Birth of the New Prison)—a structure that bestows upon those located in …
