En 1902, el Departamento de Etnografía del Museo Nacional de Hungría, antecesor del Museo de Etnografía, adquirió una colección de ciento tres objetos arqueológicos costarricenses del Museo de la Corte de Viena. Los objetos habían pertenecido originariamente a un conjunto mayor (de cuatrocientos cincuenta), comprados al director del Museo Nacional de Costa Rica por Karl Wahle, el cónsul austrohúngaro en San José, quien posteriormente los donó al museo de Viena. Una cuarta parte de las piezas, hallazgos arqueológicos de cuatro cementerios en las inmediaciones de la capital costarricense, llegaron a Budapest por intermediación del diplomático húngaro Bela Rakovszky, quien en …

Un Pensamiento Sin Fronteras, Catalina Simmonds Caldas

Tejiendo imágenes. Homenaje a Victòria Solanilla Demestre

Reconocer en la formación de la (nuestra) identidad los aportes que las imágenes visuales han conferido a los distintos soportes mentales, es reconocer en este proceso el que en las lecturas que sobre las imágenes visuales se haga, las líneas conceptuales aprehendidas no son solo mecanismos y métodos, son también estructuras identitarias. La descripción de la significativa trayectoria académica que hacemos hoy, en este homenaje a la Dra. Solanilla, estaría incompleta en gran medida si no nos detenemos en que su aporte es ante todo una construcción humanística, y esta se traduce en un ir más allá de las fronteras …

Wahl. El Abanico En La Cultura Maya, Roberto Romero Sandoval

Tejiendo imágenes. Homenaje a Victòria Solanilla Demestre

En este trabajo analizamos el uso, función y simbolismo del abanico entre los antiguos mayas. En principio, revisaremos las escenas palaciegas plasmadas en las vasijas estilo Códice del periodo Clásico Tardío, porque en ellas advertimos la presencia de personajes de la nobleza portando diversos tipos de abanicos. Entre ellos, destacan: gobernantes, mujeres de la nobleza, enanos, jefes militares, comerciantes y embajadores. En segundo lugar, realizaremos una tipología de los abanicos para descubrir de qué material estaban elaborados. Finalmente, indagaremos en las fuentes escritas y en los diccionarios, los nombres que se le otorgaban a la palabra “abanico”.

La Cerámica Ecuatoriana Del Periodo Formativo. Las Culturas Valdivia, Machalilla Y Chorrera, José Luis Pano Gracia

Tejiendo imágenes. Homenaje a Victòria Solanilla Demestre

Nos proponemos en este artículo hacer una reflexión sobre la cerámica que se produjo durante el periodo Formativo o Preclásico en el área andina septentrional (3500-500 a.C.). En especial, sobre las figuras de cerámica que se desarrollaron en las culturas del país que hoy denominamos Ecuador, principalmente las pertenecientes a los yacimientos de Valdivia, Machalilla y Chorrera. Asimismo, trataremos de establecer las oportunas comparaciones con las que se dieron en las tierras del antiguo México, como es el caso de las pretty ladies o mujeres bonitas que tan abundantemente salieron en las excavaciones del yacimiento de Tlatilco.

De Enredos, Tocados Y Telas: Algunos Apuntes De La Litoescultura Antropomorfa Teotihuacana Bajo La Óptica De Su Indumentaria, Annabel Villalonga

Tejiendo imágenes. Homenaje a Victòria Solanilla Demestre

En la litoescultura antropomorfa teotihuacana la mayor parte de los ejemplares se presentan desnudos y asexuados. Al intentar definir el género, no contamos con muchos elementos, ya que los rasgos faciales inexpresivos y despersonalizados, así como los cuerpos anatómicamente poco diferenciados, no son atributos diagnósticos del género. La indumentaria es, para el caso de la escultura antropomorfa teotihuacana, un aspecto que contribuye a dilucidar el género de dichas esculturas. En este artículo proponemos una revisión de la indumentaria, los peinados y los tocados de las litoesculturas antropomofas teotihuacanas con el propósito de definir su grado de intervención en la asignación …

Evil No More: The Image Of The Witch And Women In The United States From Seventeenth And Twentieth Centuries, Morgan Taylor Peacha

CGU Theses & Dissertations

Women in both colonial America and the twentieth century United States were impacted by the notions of witches and witchcraft. There was an integral change in witchcraft during the era of growing feminism and equality in political status. In the colonial period, what was once a disguise for women's oppression, has become a tool for women's liberation.

Paul R. Williams At Work In Photographs: Tarrying With Cites/Sights/Sites Of Trouble, Denise M. Johnson Jan 2023

Paul R. Williams At Work In Photographs: Tarrying With Cites/Sights/Sites Of Trouble, Denise M. Johnson

CGU Theses & Dissertations

Ariella Azoulay and W. J. T. Mitchell have called for a new users’ manual for photographs, urging that theory finally wrest itself from the authoritative singular gaze of the patriarchal imperial photographer so that the plurality inherent within the ontology of viewing photographs be engaged. Azoulay cogently argues that the photographer is not the only person to act when a photographic event takes place. By turning critical analysis to the photographic subject and advising viewers to both watch and listen to photographs rather than gaze, a space of appearance is activated in which the photographic subject engages in dialogue with …


Piano Instruction: Reframing The Master-Apprentice Model Through The Integration Of Dialogic Processes, Rebecca Holman Williams Jan 2023

Piano Instruction: Reframing The Master-Apprentice Model Through The Integration Of Dialogic Processes, Rebecca Holman Williams

CGU Theses & Dissertations

Private piano instruction is a niche field within the broader spectrum of pedagogy with idiosyncrasies that separate it from the traditional classroom. The learning in a private lesson encompasses cognitive, affective, and motor skills, often all at the same time, in a relatively intimate setting. Historically, this teaching and learning environment has followed the master-apprentice model of instruction. However, with newer research in learning sciences supporting social constructivist frameworks for student learning, a blended pedagogical approach is suggested. Dialogic pedagogy and cognitive apprenticeship are used in tandem with traditional precision training methodologies to foster student learning outcomes of metacognition, agency, …


As Below So Above: Reconstructing The Neo-Babylonian Worldview, Heather Marie Burrow Jan 2023

As Below So Above: Reconstructing The Neo-Babylonian Worldview, Heather Marie Burrow

CGU Theses & Dissertations

To add to our knowledge about a Near Eastern culture, this project examines through textual evidence how the early first millennium BCE Neo-Babylonians thought, reasoned, and wrote in order to partially reconstruct the shared, generally held worldview of the Neo-Babylonian people using the transdisciplinary approach of worldview analysis. Worldviews are what we use to think with, not what we think about. Underlying surficial cultural behaviors are deeper levels of cognition regarding how to reason, perceive the world, prioritize values, prescribe behavior, and explain all of life. Specifically, this work examines the language and logic reflected in the textual archive, believing …

A Historical And Philosophical Comparison: Joseph De Maistre & Edmund Burke, Carl J. Demarco Jr. Jan 2023

A Historical And Philosophical Comparison: Joseph De Maistre & Edmund Burke, Carl J. Demarco Jr.

The Gettysburg Historical Journal

Most historians have focused on the British thinker and statesman Edmund Burke, when discussing the development of Conservatism. He is often considered the “Father of Conservatism” as his principal work Reflections on the Revolution in France inspired generations of conservative thinkers. However, another conservative thinker was writing during the same period as Burke and has been relatively lost to history. Joseph de Maistre, was developing conservative thought at the same time as Burke, but has received little to no credit for the influence he held. The aim of this paper is to show that Maistre was just as influential in …
