Las Lechuzas En La Iconografía Mochica Medio De San José De Moro: El Sacerdote Lechuza, Karim Ruiz Rosell Jan 2023

Las Lechuzas En La Iconografía Mochica Medio De San José De Moro: El Sacerdote Lechuza, Karim Ruiz Rosell

Tejiendo imágenes. Homenaje a Victòria Solanilla Demestre

Cuando en 2005 se encontró la Tumba del Sacerdote Lechuza en San José de Moro (SJM), no era la primera vez que se hallaban representaciones de lechuzas entre los objetos arqueológicos recuperados en el sitio y, ni muchos menos, la primera vez que las encontrábamos en el arte mochica o el arte de la región andina en general. No obstante, significaba la primera vez que un personaje en dicho sitio aparecía con gran parte de su ajuar ligado a la figura de una de estas aves, confirmando la existencia, no solo de esas aves en el ecosistema mochica, sino también …

Durante los últimos años las investigaciones arqueológicas realizadas en el territorio costeño peruano han sacado a la luz distintos objetos artísticos y se han podido interpretar numerosos aspectos relativos al rol que desempeñaron las mujeres, y en particular el papel que ejercieron como mediadoras e interlocutoras en sociedades de ámbito comunitario. Algunas de estas mujeres traspasaron, mediante imágenes (pictóricas y/o escultóricas) la línea divisoria del tiempo para mostrarnos, en el presente, el importante papel que ejercieron y las principales funciones que desarrollaron. En este escrito vamos a acercarnos a conocer cuáles eran sus principales funciones sociales como sacerdotisas, figuras oraculares, …


Rapid Growth In Late Cretaceous Sea Turtles Reveals Life History Strategies Similar To Extant Leatherbacks, Laura E. Wilson Jan 2023

Rapid Growth In Late Cretaceous Sea Turtles Reveals Life History Strategies Similar To Extant Leatherbacks, Laura E. Wilson

Geosciences Faculty Publications

Modern sea turtle long bone osteohistology has been surprisingly well-studied, as it is used to understand sea turtle growth and the timing of life history events, thus informing conservation decisions. Previous histologic studies reveal two distinct bone growth patterns in extant sea turtle taxa, with Dermochelys (leatherbacks) growing faster than the cheloniids (all other living sea turtles). Dermochelys also has a unique life history compared to other sea turtles (large size, elevated metabolism, broad biogeographic distribution, etc.) that is likely linked to bone growth strategies. Despite the abundance of data on modern sea turtle bone growth, extinct sea turtle osteohistology …


On The Ethics Of Selling Psychic Services, Jeffrey Moriarty Jan 2023

On The Ethics Of Selling Psychic Services, Jeffrey Moriarty

Philosophy Faculty Publications

In many places, it is possible to buy psychic services, including tarot card, palm, and mediumship readings. Yet we have powerful evidence that psychic abilities do not exist. This paper asks whether psychic services should be for sale. I begin by considering whether psychics deceive or mislead buyers. Next, I consider a harm-based argument against the sale of psychic services. Finally, I consider an argument in favor of their sale that appeals to expressive considerations. I conclude with a tentative policy recommendation: the sale of psychic services should be permitted. This is so even though much of the money spent …

An “Essential” Solution: Reworking The Essential Facilities Doctrine To Address Big Tech’S Harm To The Marketplace Of Ideas, Kaleb Byars Jan 2023

An “Essential” Solution: Reworking The Essential Facilities Doctrine To Address Big Tech’S Harm To The Marketplace Of Ideas, Kaleb Byars

Articles

Google’s mission statement is undoubtedly altruistic. The Internet overflows with information, and users could not navigate the Internet if an entity did not logically organize that information. On the other hand, should democratic societies accept the convenience that Google and the other Big Tech firms provide if that convenience impairs the marketplace of ideas? Big Tech censorship is at the forefront of current news and congressional consideration. At both ends of the political spectrum, parties agree

Big Tech censorship harms the marketplace of ideas. Republican congresspersons argue Big Tech supports liberal ideas and censors conservative voices, websites, and advertisements. Democratic …

Towards A Literary History Of Quaker Writing In The Atlantic World, Jay David Miller Jan 2023

Towards A Literary History Of Quaker Writing In The Atlantic World, Jay David Miller

Faculty Publications - Department of English

Among eighteenth-century Quaker writers, John Woolman was idiosyncratic, as illustrated by the fact that in his journal he recorded an ac-count of his own death. Needless to say, this was not usually done. Instead, it was conventional for posthumously published Quaker journals to include not only an autobiographical narrative of spiritual development but also additional material written by qualified Friends offering further testimony and giving details about how and when the author died. The first printing of Woolman’s journal in his posthumous Works (1774) is accompanied by such material about his 1772 death in York, England, but this was not …


Environmental Aesthetics And Environmental Justice In Jonathan Edwards’S Personal Narrative And John Woolman’S Journal, Jay David Miller Jan 2023

Environmental Aesthetics And Environmental Justice In Jonathan Edwards’S Personal Narrative And John Woolman’S Journal, Jay David Miller

Faculty Publications - Department of English

This essay examines the relationship between Christian theology, environmental aesthetics, and environmental justice in colonial America. As opposed to the work of secular writers from the early republic like J. Hector St. John de Crèvecoeur and Thomas Jefferson, the Christian environmental aesthetics of Jonathan Edwards and John Woolman have potential to address questions of environmental justice in American literary history, such as tenant exploitation, African enslavement, and Indigenous displacement. Edwards, however, worked in a pastoral literary tradition, which limited his ability to imagine environmental justice due to his commitment to the doctrine of election. Woolman, on the other hand, worked …

The ‘Natural’ Disaster: How Americans’ Obsession With ‘Natural’ Foods Encourages Misinformation, Stifles Innovation, And Harms The Planet, Jillian Guernsey Jan 2023

The ‘Natural’ Disaster: How Americans’ Obsession With ‘Natural’ Foods Encourages Misinformation, Stifles Innovation, And Harms The Planet, Jillian Guernsey

UC Law Environmental Journal

Every day, consumers are bombarded with conflicting messages about what they should and should not eat. In an effort to make healthy food choices, consumers often flock to food products that boast “organic,” “all-natural,” or “non-GMO” labels. But are all of these foods really better? In this note, I discuss the confusion surrounding “natural” food and how it has hindered progress toward more productive and sustainable food systems. First, I examine the hazy definition of “natural” foods and explain why consumers continue to demand natural foods despite their environmental impacts. Second, I discuss how consumers’ single-minded focus on natural foods …

San Pablo Villa de Mitla –ubicado a unos 50 km al este de Oaxaca de Juárez, capital del estado mexicano del mismo nombre– es célebre por sus ruinas precolombinas visitadas desde la época colonial. Pero el pueblo de Mitla –como se lo conoce comúnmente– también es –o más bien era– famoso por su museo: El Museo Frissell de Arte Zapoteco, una institución privada que apareció a principios de los años 50 y reunió la colección de arte zapoteca más importante del mundo, después de las del Museo Nacional de México y del Museo Regional de Oaxaca. Entre estas piezas, había …

Seres Multidimensionales En El Arte Precolombino De América Del Sur. Una Comparación Simbólica, Ana María Llamazares

Tejiendo imágenes. Homenaje a Victòria Solanilla Demestre

Basándonos en la idea de que las culturas originarias de América comparten un lecho cosmovisional y simbólico común, en este artículo comparamos imágenes representativas de dos áreas geográficas y períodos culturales muy distantes entre sí, que también corresponden a tipos expresivos diferentes. De la cultura Chavín del área andina centro-septentrional (1500-300 a.C.) analizamos una compleja figura de un personaje zooantropomorfo portando una vara del cactus San Pedro; imagen que puede considerarse al mismo tiempo una de las evidencias más tempranas de la utilización ritual de esta planta sagrada en el marco del ceremonialismo chamánico en América del Sur. De la …

Las viejas bordadoras de la península de Yucatán, depositarias de la memoria del contenido cultural inscrito en los textiles, desaparecen una a una sin haber trasmitido su conocimiento a las jóvenes generaciones. Ante la alteración de parte sustancial de la cultura vinculada a los textiles, durante cinco años se llevó a cabo una investigación dirigida a salvaguardar este patrimonio en vías de ser olvidado para siempre, la cual demostró el rol de los textiles en los rituales y la relación entre algunos motivos bordados con la cosmogonía maya. Este trabajo científico despertó la inquietud de grupos de jóvenes bordadoras ávidas …

Resumen: Las formas figurativas son representaciones fáciles de ver y de verificar con los modelos; las esquemáticas, en cambio, requieren de observación cercana y precisa para descubrir qué son, por ejemplo, las representaciones de elementos de la naturaleza como la fauna y la flora. Se mostrarán algunas de esas formas que sólo mediante la observación se pueden revelar. Detallar, descubrir y maravillarse es el propósito de este texto.

Abstract: The figurative forms are representation that are easy to see and verify with the models. The schematic ones, on the other hand, require close and precise observation to discover what are, …

El Área Intermedia es el espacio geográfico que incluye parte de la costa caribeña de Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panamá, Colombia y Venezuela. Las culturas que se desarrollaron en este territorio que comunica las dos grandes regiones precolombinas que son Mesoamérica y la Zona Andina enriquecieron su cosmovisión a través de la interacción producida por el intercambio comercial y las migraciones. En este territorio fronterizo que comunica el norte y el sur, se desarrollaron culturas con gran conocimiento en el trabajo de diferentes materiales cerámicos, líticos y en especial metalúrgicos, llegando a desarrollar un alto nivel de conocimiento técnico y …

El material de este estudio lo constituyen cincuenta y siete piezas de tejidos precolombinos de la Zona Andina. Entre estas piezas se encuentran también husos para hilar y madejas de hilo. Todas pertenecen al Instituto de Antropología de la Ciudad de La Habana, y en el momento de ser estudiadas y trabajadas se encontraban depositadas en una bóveda de la Academia de Ciencias de La Habana. Llegué a conectarme con el arte precolombino desde mi perspectiva como pintora, con un ojo sintonizado hacia el uso del color, sus formas y texturas. Me sedujo la manera como en él se resolvían …

The Unfulfilled Promise Of Self-Determination In Court-Connected Mediation, Peter R. Reilly Jan 2023

The Unfulfilled Promise Of Self-Determination In Court-Connected Mediation, Peter R. Reilly

Florida State University Law Review

In the context of mediation, party self-determination refers to the ability of disputants to have power, control, and autonomy in the process. There are numerous process design questions involved in running a mediation, no matter its subject matter. Consider just one example: "Should the mediation be conducted in person, or virtually?" The answer to this question can have a profound impact on the direction and course of a mediation, including its outcome. Yet, in the context of court-connected mediation, disputing parties are not consistently provided the opportunity to give input on how such process design questions are resolved. In fact, …

Eco-Necrotourism And Public Land Management: Last Chance Tourism, Ecological Grief, And The World's Disappearing Natural Wonders, Robin Kundis Craig, Katrina Fischer Kuh Jan 2023

Eco-Necrotourism And Public Land Management: Last Chance Tourism, Ecological Grief, And The World's Disappearing Natural Wonders, Robin Kundis Craig, Katrina Fischer Kuh

Florida State University Law Review

Last Chance Tourism. 500 Places to See Before They Disappear. 100 Places to Go Before They Disappear. As these (real) book titles at-test, climate change, often in combination with loss of biodiversity, has created a new kind of ecotourism, which we term eco-necrotourism—the desire to see natural wonders and rare species before they are lost or transformed forever. As a scholarly topic, eco-necrotourism is a small facet of an emerging necessity for climate change law and policy: the need for planners, managers, lawmakers, and policy writers to consider human psychological responses to climate change and its impacts. However, those responses …


When Originalism Failed: Lessons From Tort Law, Donald G. Gifford, Richard C. Boldt, Christopher J. Robinette Jan 2023

When Originalism Failed: Lessons From Tort Law, Donald G. Gifford, Richard C. Boldt, Christopher J. Robinette

Florida State University Law Review

Two recent Supreme Court decisions upended American life. Opinions released on consecutive days in June 2022 overturned the right of reproductive choice nationwide and invalidated a statute regulating the carrying of concealed weapons in New York. The opinions were united by a common methodology. Pursuant to what one scholar terms “thick” originalism, history, as told by the majority, dictated the resolution of constitutional disputes. This Article explores the use of thick originalism in several celebrated torts cases that raised constitutional issues. These cases illustrate two significant kinds of problems associated with a rigid historical approach to constitutional interpretation. The first …
