Desire And Discourse In Foucault: The Sign Of The Fig Leaf In Michelangelo’S David, Kenneth Colburn Dec 1986

Desire And Discourse In Foucault: The Sign Of The Fig Leaf In Michelangelo’S David, Kenneth Colburn

Kenneth D. Colburn

The article focuses on philosopher Michel Foucault's views for assessing the meaning and significance of the fig leaf placed on sculptor Michelangelo's sculpture, David, examines the motif of the fig leaf in the story of Adam and Eve as a prototype of Foucault's idea of sex as a category of knowledge and employs Foucault's distinction between ars erotica and sciens tia sexualis as the basis for a comparison of classical and modern attitudes towards sex.

Form And Meaning: The Conventionalization Of The Leaf Ornament, Kresten Jespersen Dec 1986

Form And Meaning: The Conventionalization Of The Leaf Ornament, Kresten Jespersen

Kresten Jespersen

As did Owen Jones, Bloomer argues for a modern style of ornament to decorate a modern architecture. Based on formal laws rather than theories of classical or naturalistic imitation, conventionalization can be seen as being explicitly modern. Moreover, deriving from the work of ornament, these laws are dependent on intrinsic rather than extrinsic principles.

The Bahrain Schools, Paul J. Rich Dec 1986

The Bahrain Schools, Paul J. Rich

Paul J. Rich

The history of education in the Gulf includes a number of early school schemes that emulated British elitist secondary education, the sort of pedagogy that one associates with the English public schools. My opinion has been that this emphasis on a traditional and non vocational curriculum was a contributor to the challenges that countries faced that had been under British sway.
