Rain In The Modern Arabic Poem, Dr. Hussein Yousef Kharyush
Rain In The Modern Arabic Poem, Dr. Hussein Yousef Kharyush
Al-Balqa Journal for Research and Studies البلقاء للبحوث والدراسات
This research discusses the domains and the implicature of rain in the modern Arab poetry. Since the rain is connected to the origins of life, and is a symbol of renewal, the use of rain in the Arab poetry, in this way is considered among daring usages because it recaptures the historical symbols. And it’s used to express something about the Arab situations in this age. Finally, the new meaning dedicates new implicature of rain that is connected to the truth and reality when the poet loses this reality and seeks salvation.

Vowels Between Theoretical Standards And Pronunciation Characteristics, Dr. Samir Stitiah
Al-Balqa Journal for Research and Studies البلقاء للبحوث والدراسات
This research aim at classifying the theoretical and practical principles of vowels. Some of these principles are related to the acoustic features. The acoustic features can be observed in sonority and friction. The contextual criteria are observed in the phonological usages and practical linguistic level. However, the practical criteria can be easily observed in the articulatory features such as narrowing and the obstruction of the air- system. Cardinal vowels represent the duality of vowels, they represent the theoretical and practical aspects of vowels. Cardinal vowels are divided into: primary, secondary, and additional vowels. All cardinal vowels are defined according to …

Imaging The Great Irish Famine: Representing Dispossession In Visual Culture, Preface & Introduction, Niamh Ann Kelly
Books/Book Chapters
‘Niamh Ann Kelly's lavishly illustrated book throws new light on the visual culture commemorative of hunger, famine and dispossession in mid-nineteenth-century Ireland. Located within the discipline of International Memorial Studies, the text and images both challenge and extend our understanding of Famine history. Examining the visual culture since the time of the Famine until the present, Kelly asks, how do we view, experience and represent the past in the present? To what extent does the viewer insert themselves in this complex process? Is there such a thing as ethical spectatorship? Kelly’s sophisticated yet sympathetic study of the “grievous history” …
Gut Feeling, Shelby Fleming
Gut Feeling, Shelby Fleming
Graduate Theses and Dissertations
Through curated space and abstracted sculptures that reference the viewer’s body, Gut Feeling, acknowledges the viewer’s experience as the focal point of the exhibition. I designed the whole gallery as an art object using both positive and negative space. The sculptures act as one unified system that guides the viewer through the exhibition in a counterclockwise rotation inward. The viewer follows the forms as they puncture through the walls of the gallery, while considering their own body’s relationship to the forms being seen. The viewer directly engages with the scale of the forms, sculptural placement, and sensory experience; these elements …

Domestic Life During The Late Intermediate Period At El Campanario Site, Huarmey Valley, Peru, Jose Luis Peña
USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations
This dissertation investigates domestic activities conducted at El Campanario, an important settlement in the Huarmey Valley which is located in the north-central coast of Peru. The archaeological excavations and material analyses conducted at El Campanario for this dissertation revealed the presence of a characteristic ceramic style containing incised and press-molded decoration. This distinctive ceramic style is commonly denominated Casma and can be found along the Peruvian coast between the Chao Valley to the north and the Huarmey Valley to the south. The excavations were conducted in domestic contexts which were identified from the surface based on food remains and large …

Reproducing The New Negro: James Van Der Zee’S Photographic Vision In Newsprint, Emilie C. Boone
Publications and Research
In the summer of 1924, as a departure from his concentration on portraits in his Harlem studio, James Van Der Zee served as the official photographer for the Pan-Africanist leader Marcus Garvey and his organization, the Universal Negro Improvement Association (UNIA). Many of the resulting photographs were published in the organization’s popular, internationally distributed newspaper, the Negro World. The newsprint medium in which the UNIA photographs appeared in reproduction, along with their editorial arrangement on the page, animated a different photographic vision from that of the gelatin silver print studio portraits often celebrated as Van Der Zee’s defining contribution …

Bernard Palissy: Early Career - Securing Patronage And Mimicking Nature In A Moment Of Crisis, Karissa Bailey
LSU Master's Theses
Early in 1562, France was experiencing a state of high religious tension between Protestants and Catholics that would precipitate the outbreak of the Religious Wars on March 1. A week before, Bernard Palissy, a Huguenot potter, wrote a letter to his Catholic patron from prison inBordeaux where he was being held on charges associated with an iconoclastic incident in his home city of Saintes. This letter would later be published as a dedication letter for the pamphlet Architecture et Ordonnance, which featured the description of a grotto commissioned by Anne de Montmorency, Palissy’s patron, seven years earlier. This thesis analyzes …
Centering The Black Woman As A Subject Of Portraiture In Nineteenth-Century French Art, Llyleila Richardson
Centering The Black Woman As A Subject Of Portraiture In Nineteenth-Century French Art, Llyleila Richardson
XULAneXUS
Until the 19th century, artistic depictions of black women by European artists were rare. Often they were relegated to the background as domestic attendants to European noblewomen, serving as symbols of the latter’s colonial wealth and further provide contrast with the darkness of their skin against the aristocratic fairness of their white mistresses. The transition into the 19th century was a turbulent period in European history, especially for France, as the country saw multiple revolts and governmental changes at home. Simultaneously colonization overseas continued to expand, creating previously unheard-of access to foreign cultures and ideas.
Black women became an interesting …

PreColumbian Textile Conference VIII / Jornadas de Textiles PreColombinos VIII (2019)
En el hallazgo de Llullaillaco los motivos de tocapu y cumbi se reiteran en importantes textiles que visten a los niños ofrendados y en otros en forma de miniatura vistiendo a las estatuillas que conforman el ajuar. Tanto las miniaturas antropomorfas de metal (oro y plata) como las de mullu (spondylus) están vestidas con uncu (túnica), yacolla (manto) y llautu (o vincha) y llevan una bolsa o chuspa con los mismos diseños que las prendas que visten los niños. Nuestra comprensión del significado de tocapu se basa en cómo ha sido descrito por los cronistas, asociado a veces íntimamente con …

El análisis textil es un aporte fundamental para la recontextualización de individuos momificados y dentro de este contexto un caso interesante es el de la momia exhibida en el Museo del Instituto de Anatomía de la Universidad de Philipps, Marburg, Alemania. Este individuo, de sexo masculino, confirmado por la tomografía computarizada realizada en el año 2018, y acompañado de un ajuar textil y diversas ofrendas, se encuentra en relativas buenas condiciones de conservación y, de acuerdo a la escasa información disponible, habría ingresado a dicha institución alrededor de 1892-1893 procedente de la ciudad de Arica. En este trabajo se presentan …

A raíz de la ejecución del Proyecto de Rescate Arqueológico Parcial en Cerro la Horca, fue posible el registro de diversas evidencias materiales las cuales han puesto de manifiesto nuevas interpretaciones sobre la ocupación del sitio. La recuperación de material textil y su respectivo análisis ha permitido identificar y definir diversos estilos textiles, entre los que podemos citar: Lambayeque, Huarmey, Chancay, Serrano, Chimú e Inca los mismos que revelan la compleja y variada interacción socio-cultural de los diversos grupos étnicos que convivieron en esta parte baja del valle del Fortaleza, durante el Periodo Intermedio Tardío y Horizonte Tardío.

Two-Headed Serpents And Rayed Heads: Precedents And Reinterpretations In Paracas Necropolis Imagery, Ann H. Peters
PreColumbian Textile Conference VIII / Jornadas de Textiles PreColombinos VIII (2019)
The Necropolis of Wari Kayan and other tombs of the Paracas Necropolis mortuary tradition present an astonishing diversity of textile styles, and an even greater diversity of imagery. More than 100 different motifs can be distinguished and tracked among the documented mortuary contexts. While is it not likely that our sample of 45 mummy bundles includes all important variants of any particular motif, in many cases it is possible to propose a sequence of reinterpretations of a key icon. By documenting the known assemblage of images and artifacts we can perceive what icons and styles are predominant, recurrent or unusual. …

Ancient Peruvian Textiles In The Vatican Museums And Their Link To The Musée Du Trocadéro Collections, Jean-François Genotte
PreColumbian Textile Conference VIII / Jornadas de Textiles PreColombinos VIII (2019)
The Vatican Museums keep a small collection of about sixty textile fragments mostly Lambayeque, Chimu and Chancay dating back to Late Intermediate Period. Unfortunately, the archaeological provenance of these items is not known. This paper offers a first overview of the history of the collection, describing its contents and, in more details, its most interesting fabrics. We will then suggest that some fragments of the Vatican collection might have been part of textiles once kept in the Musée du Trocadéro, and nowadays preserved in the Quai Branly Museum in Paris.

La colección incluye numerosas mochilas Ika. Estas son en fique, algodón y lana, para diferentes usos. Tanto los motivos de los diseños como los colorantes y las fibras utilizadas expresan cierto grado de sincretismo. Aunque la mayoría de los diseños son tradicionales, se observa algunos animales domésticos y la cruz, al parecer resultado de la influencia de la misión de padres capuchinos establecida …

El presente artículo tiene por objetivo presentar la lógica de funcionamiento de una gramática del color en los textiles tarabuco de los Andes Meridionales (centro-sur de Bolivia). Poniendo foco en el sistema de k’uychi, un dispositivo prescriptivo de gradación cromática (degradé), se pretende demostrar como él funciona como mecanismo de construcción de un lenguaje expresivo, coherente con los fundamentos cosmológicos andinos.

Urban Palimpsests: Studying Enlightenment Influences In The Post-Earthquake Rebuilding Of Lima And Lisbon, 1746–1765, Emily Chung
Urban Palimpsests: Studying Enlightenment Influences In The Post-Earthquake Rebuilding Of Lima And Lisbon, 1746–1765, Emily Chung
The Forum: Journal of History
Urban renewal has long existed as a vessel for the assertion of authority, embodying hierarchy, policy, and culture in the most tangible way with architecture and civic landscaping shaped to accommodate the upper strata of society. Particularly interesting to study through this lens is the latter half of the eighteenth century which marks the turning point between royal absolutism and the emergence of competing forms of power in the European Empire, through the growth of the Enlightenment movement. This paper offers a comparison of two imperial cities, Lima and Lisbon, which due to similarly tragic earthquakes, were provided the opportunity …

Se presenta la síntesis de una investigación destinada a identificar representaciones textiles en los iconos de la litoescultura Tiwanaku. Previamente ya habíamos usado un análisis componencial para segregar motivos y elementos en sus tres principales figuras: Personaje Frontal, Personajes de Perfil y Banda Faja. Luego se ubicaron sus referentes textiles en colecciones arqueológicas de Chile, Perú y Bolivia para precisar patrones de distribución espacial de las prendas y su iconografía en las distintas zonas que estuvieron en la órbita de Tiwanaku. Además, este estudio ha sido complementado con una exploración de los saberes ancestrales acerca de los iconos que están …
