Symmetry And Symmetry-Breaking: An Approach To Understanding Beauty, Carol Bier Jan 2005

Symmetry And Symmetry-Breaking: An Approach To Understanding Beauty, Carol Bier

Textile Research Works

Considering the relationship of symmetry and beauty, the author examines three textiles from the collection of Doris Duke at Shangri La in Honolulu. Referring to abstract expressionism of the 20th century as antithetical to symmetry, and the Arts & Crafts Movement of the 19th century as countering the insistency of industrial mass production, Bier explores the relative roles of symmetry and symmetry-breaking in the construction of three embroideries (called suzani, after the Persian and Tajik word for “needlework”), using as her point of departure a recent research initiative, the Shangri La Suzani Project. The study of colors, motifs, stitches, designs …

Manusya, Journal of Humanities

The ineluctable force of globalization is having an immense on local traditions worldwide. Thai cultures, and lifestyles have also received the full brunt of these 'nouvelle' invasions.

Trauma, Repressed Memory, And The Question Of 'Authenticity': Reading See Under: Love And Beloved Through Bhabha, Phrae Chittiphalangsri Jan 2005

Trauma, Repressed Memory, And The Question Of 'Authenticity': Reading See Under: Love And Beloved Through Bhabha, Phrae Chittiphalangsri

Manusya, Journal of Humanities

Trauma and the repressed memory of Jewish Holocaust survivors and African-American slaves are issues that require the notion of 'authenticity' in fictional representation. The Zionist discourse demands that Holocaust fictions be written by true witnesses of the genocide and with respectful seriousness, for the Holocaust is a sacred, incomparable phenomenon in Jewish history. In the same manner, the Black American narrative needs authenticity to articulate the Black's own voice, which has been predominately constructed by White Americans since the early history of America. David Grossman's See Under: Love (1999) nevertheless deals with the problem of 'authenticity' in describing the Holocaust, …


The Significance Of Puccha-Vissajjana In The Buddhist Literature, Pisit Kobbun Jan 2005

The Significance Of Puccha-Vissajjana In The Buddhist Literature, Pisit Kobbun

Manusya, Journal of Humanities

It is a mnemonic technique for conveying and maintaining the teachings in the oral tradition and was kept as a written record until it becomes a tradition technique in composing post-Tipitaka Buddhist literature. When regarding the suttas as a textbook, the use of pucchā-vissajjanā in the suttas is important for the study of dhamma-vinaya. Constructing the suttas according to the …

Beyond The Cockfight: Masculinity And The Thai Dove-Cooing Contest, Wanni Wibulswasdi Anderson Jan 2005

Beyond The Cockfight: Masculinity And The Thai Dove-Cooing Contest, Wanni Wibulswasdi Anderson

Manusya, Journal of Humanities

The Dove-cooing contest in Thailand began as a leisure activity, the hobby of a particular group of men who found peace, pleasure, and enjoyment in listening to the songs of the singing doves. Some hoped for good luck in raising doves with propitious characteristics. The hobby developed into a sport through the initiative of the Association of Dove Breeders in Thailand. The Association's encouragement of dove breeding found enthusiastic support from dove lovers in all regions, especially in Southern Thailand where many prize-winning dives came from. The study presents the training and care of doves, selected scenes of the contest, …


Who Is't Can Read A Woman?': Representation Of Queen Elizabeth I In Cymbeline, Thanomnual Hiranyatheb Jan 2005

Who Is't Can Read A Woman?': Representation Of Queen Elizabeth I In Cymbeline, Thanomnual Hiranyatheb

Manusya, Journal of Humanities

This article is an attempt to read Cymbeline (1608-1610), one of Shakespeare's so-called 'final plays' or 'romances' as a site of cultural responses to the remaining 'presence' of the late Queen Elizabeth I and her cultural associations in the context of the reign of her gender-different successor, King James I. It argues that these responses can be seen in the play's portrayal of two characters in the play, namely the Wicked Queen and to a lesser extent, Imogen, in which the figure of the late queen is played out and marginalized, and proposes that these representations are ways in which …


Miracle Scene': The Sanskrit Figure Of Speech 'Samasokti' In Thai Literary Convention, Kusuma Raksamani Jan 2005

Miracle Scene': The Sanskrit Figure Of Speech 'Samasokti' In Thai Literary Convention, Kusuma Raksamani

Manusya, Journal of Humanities

In Thai classical literature there is a kind of description used in portraying love scenes. Disguised in expressions of double meaning, these passages are, at the same time, rather risque. The portrayal is called 'miracle scene' after the word 'āscarya' (miracle) at the beginning if each passage. The literary device in the description is somewhat similar to the Sanskrit alajkāra, 'samāsokti' in which a second meaning is understood because of the epithets common to both meanings. The paper is an attempt to trace this device in Thai literary convention, gleaning insight from the passage in the masterpieces of different periods. …
