Abstract:
In April 1204, a Western crusading army on its way to the Holy Land attacked and occupied the Eastern Roman capital of Constantinople in the notorious debacle of the Fourth Crusade. Pope Innocent III had adamantly forbidden the detour but lost control over the army. After the siege was successful, he seems to have wanted at least to use the conquest to effect a forced reunion of the churches East and West. In this frame of mind Innocent later explained to Theodore Laskaris, Emperor of Nicaea, who had complained that an army commissioned to aid the Holy Land had instead turned their crusading swords against fellow Christians, that the conquest was the result of inscrutable divine providence of just judgment. Greek insubordination to Rome was an evil, as he explained, that met the evil of the crusaders’ greed and deception (Registrum, ed. Hageneder, vol. 11, 63). Innocent was not allowed to remain complacent, however; for when the reunion failed to happen and even citizens and soldiers began moving from Jerusalem to the conquered Eastern Roman capital, the pope again reproached the aggressors.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTThe 16S rRNA methyltransferase ArmA is a worldwide emerging determinant that confers high-level resistance to most clinically relevant aminoglycosides. We report here the identification and characterization of a multidrug-resistantSalmonella entericasubspecies I.4,12:i:− isolate recovered from chicken meat sampled in a supermarket on February 2009 in La Reunion, a French island in the Indian Ocean. Susceptibility testing showed an unusually high-level resistance to gentamicin, as well as to ampicillin, expanded-spectrum cephalosporins and amoxicillin-clavulanate. Molecular analysis of the 16S rRNA methyltransferases revealed presence of thearmAgene, together withblaTEM-1,blaCMY-2, andblaCTX-M-3. All of these genes could be transferreden blocthrough conjugation intoEscherichia coliat a frequency of 10−5CFU/donor. Replicon typing and S1 pulsed-field gel electrophoresis revealed that thearmAgene was borne on an ∼150-kb broad-host-range IncP plasmid, pB1010. To elucidate howarmAhad integrated in pB1010, a PCR mapping strategy was developed for Tn1548, the genetic platform forarmA.The gene was embedded in a Tn1548-like structure, albeit with a deletion of the macrolide resistance genes, and an IS26was inserted within themelgene. To our knowledge, this is the first report of ArmA methyltransferase in food, showing a novel route of transmission for this resistance determinant. Further surveillance in food-borne bacteria will be crucial to determine the role of food in the spread of 16S rRNA methyltransferase genes worldwide.

Abstract:
For thirty years after Franklin Pierce's death, the ex-president's reputation remained low in the estimation of historians and the public. Most saw Pierce and his successor James Buchanan as primary culprits in the sectional discord leading to the Civil War. Between 1900 and 1915, however, Pierce's reputation improved, with the sectional healing represented by Blue-Gray reunions on former battlefields like Gettysburg and the election of only the second Democratic president since the war, Woodrow Wilson. This process of healing was particularly difficult in Pierce's home state of New Hampshire. In a classic case of contested memory, the Grand Army of the Republic repeatedly stymied Democratic attempts to raise a statue to the state's only president and criticized Pierce as a traitor and Confederate sympathizer. The Democrats, however, took over the New Hampshire governor's chair in 1913, and the legislature voted to honor Pierce with a statue. In that small early twentieth-century window, Franklin Pierce became a beneficiary of hard-earned sectional reconciliation.

Abstract:
Durante el siglo XIV comienzan a producirse en la corona de Castilla una serie de cambios y transformaciones profundas en sus estructuras organizativas que conducen a un incremento de los recursos fiscales, logísticos y militares disponibles. Este proceso, contemporáneo a otros territorios peninsulares y europeos, llevó a un aumento de las capacidades de reunión y sostenimiento de fuerzas militares en el tiempo y el espacio, a un cambio en la organización y conducción de la guerra, cuyas dimensiones espaciotemporales crecen, y en definitiva a un proceso evolutivo a largo plazo que conducirá a lo largo de la baja Edad Media a la aparición del ejército permanente como instrumento de poder del naciente estado moderno.AbstractA series of important changes and transformations in the organizational structure of the Crown of Castile took place during the fourteenth century and led to an increase in financial, logistical and military resources. This process which ocurred at the same time in other Iberian and European territories produced an increase in the capability to garner and maintain military forces through time and space. As well, it gave way to a change in the organization and the process of war, whose dimensions grew in every sense. In the end, the changes resulted in a long-term evolutionary process during the late Middle Ages that concluded in the rise of a permanent army as an instrument of power in the nascent modern state.

Abstract:
El dossier que presentamos en este número tuvo su origen en dos coloquios dedicados a las indagaciones multidisciplinarias en las prácticas de investigación en artes y ciencias sociales. En uno nos centramos en el teatro, la performatividad y el abandono; el otro, lo dedicamos a las heterotopías. Más allá de los temas específicos, nos interesaba interrogar las prácticas de investigación en campos diversos y los diálogos que se podían establecer entre ellas. Buscábamos propiciar un ejercicio colectivo de reflexión a partir de múltiples experiencias y atisbar los lenguajes en uso, las técnicas de investigación, las estrategias analíticas, los modos de interrogación, las imaginaciones involucradas y los puntos donde las rutas conceptuales o prácticas divergían.El diálogo nos condujo a un desafío de límites entre campos formalmente separados, el cual generó tensiones, desfases y discordancias. Una de las más sobresalientes tiene que ver con la “división ocupacional entre el artista y el académico” (Jackson, 177-178): ¿cómo se inscriben las artes escénicas en el espacio formal, disciplinario y disciplinado de la vida académica? Porque nuestros sujetos/objetos de conocimiento, nuestras preguntas de investigación y nuestras “metodologías” parecían converger en estrategias de trabajo, lenguajes, formas de pensar, modos de aproximación e interrogación que, de manera colateral, nos conectan con los estudios del performance y, por consiguiente, nos enfrentan a una cuestión que rebasa con mucho las prácticas de investigación.Por eso propusimos este conjunto de reflexiones a una revista dedicada a las artes escénicas y la performatividad que, además, dedica buena parte de su espacio al mundo del performance. El performance pensado como acción/actuación/actualización, puesta en acto y escenificación de normas y órdenes, subversión y atravesamiento de límites; reproducción y diferencia que alude, al mismo tiempo, a la irrepetibilidad del acontecimiento y a su pertenencia a una estructura que le otorga significación dentro del marco contextual del aquí-y-ahora, es decir, al reconocimiento de que nuestras vidas están estructuradas de acuerdo con modos de conducta repetidos y socialmente sancionados. Todo lo cual sugiere una lucha por el control de una economía simbólica.Los trabajos reunidos aquí tienen en común ese punto de partida. No se puede pensar el performance como un género artístico o como el dominio estricto de una disciplina estética en sí misma, sino como una pluralidad de expresiones. De la misma forma, los referentes de nuestras contribuciones son diversos y heterogéneos: desde prácticas corporales cotidianas como los usos indumentarios hasta la extrema codificación del cuerpo en la danza o el deporte, pasando por experiencias autodenominadas como teatrales, escenificaciones paratópicas y rituales colectivos del duelo. Lo que permite la interlocución entre experiencias y ejercicios tan dispares es su anclaje en lo que Allan Kaprow ha denominado el “arte como vida”, es decir, el arte que mezcla los géneros o los evita: “el principal diálogo de los hacedores del arte como vida no se lleva a cabo con el arte, sino con todo lo demás”.Si bien la confusión de categorías ha ampliado la gama de lo que cuenta como práctica artística, lo que nos interesa de esta experiencia en tanto teatro, imagen y etnografía es una conversación interdisciplinaria que vulnera los límites entre modalidades y borra las fronteras entre los medios, los géneros o las tradiciones culturales. Porque la discusión nos conduce a la toma de conciencia de la “índole contingente, resbalosa y decididamente contextual de la formación de conocimiento” (Jackson, 10). Refrenda la idea de Feyerabend de que no existe una sola fuente del saber, ni una única manera legítima de transmitirlo. El desafío principal de nuestras prácticas epistemológicas consiste en mantenerse como marca de frontera entre campos del saber y desestabilizar la idea de que existe una forma única —estandarizada, universal, normativa— de producir conocimiento.En alguna medida, las perspectivas multidisciplinarias o transdisciplinarias contienen un elemento mítico que anuncia una mutua comprensión o la integración de los lenguajes y los modos de intervenir sobre ciertas realidades o fenómenos. Nuestra postura fue sospechar de ese horizonte, pero creer en el mito. Los coloquios fueron, en ese sentido, ejercicios rituales para mitologías en ciernes.Nuestro interés común surge de una experiencia singular, pero compartida, de extrañamiento. Por un lado, una de las colaboradoras (Hortensia Moreno) investigó durante largo tiempo prácticas corporales de boxeadoras y se adentró en un mundo repleto de imágenes, rituales, límites y creencias. Por otro, Rodrigo Parrini se encontró con una compañía de teatro en una ciudad de la frontera sur de México —lugar poco acostumbrado al arte de la capital— y comenzó una interrogación sobre las relaciones entre sus propias prácticas etnográficas y las prácticas teatrales que realizaba ese grupo de artistas. ¿Se puede interrogar al boxeo desde la semiótica y el feminismo?, ¿es factible ver en ese deporte un mundo particular y en las mujeres que lo practican sujetos singulares?; ¿podríamos pensar una etnografía que se realiza a través del teatro?, ¿o un teatro que rebasa la escena y se aproxima a los mundos de vida y a las teatralidades que ahí se producen? El extrañamiento del que hablamos surge de ese encuentro fortuito, pero también intencionado, con otros lenguajes y otras estéticas. Extrañarse es el principio de la interrogación, se lea esa actitud como inicio de algo o como un imperativo intelectual.En el teatro o en el boxeo se escuchan muchas voces. Son mundos llenos de sonidos, incluso en los intervalos de silencio que cobijan. Esas voces, que se desplazan con quien las ha escuchado ya no como un mundo sonoro sino como una interioridad bullente, abren diálogos, suscitan asociaciones, crean argumentos. Los artículos que hemos reunido en este número forman parte de ese espacio colmado de referencias e imágenes. En algún sentido, es tanto un mundo de voces como una interioridad parlante. Esa convergencia razonada de la que hablamos antes es también una subjetividad comprometida. Si bien podríamos abordar el arte como una institución o la etnografía como una metodología, preferimos ubicarnos en una posición de perturbación serena en la que los desencuentros produzcan sentidos que no hemos avizorado. Si bien ninguno de los textos que hemos reunido propone rupturas definitivas, todos, a su manera, registran desacomodos importantes: del cuerpo con el sentido, del arte con la conciencia, del deseo con el lenguaje, de la muerte con sus rituales.Al parecer, las formas de vida en el mundo actual experimentan una crisis profunda en lo que Paolo Virno llama sus sustratos de piedra. Crisis que Peter Sloterdijk denomina simplemente “modernidad”, pero que nosotros evitamos nombrar ante la urgencia de una descripción pormenorizada. ¿Son los elaborados rituales mortuorios que realizan los habitantes de una localidad de Guerrero suficientes para resolver colectivamente la desaparición sistemática de personas que ocurre en ese estado mexicano?, ¿cómo ritualizar la muerte de aquellas personas cuyo destino se desconoce y cuyos cuerpos no han sido encontrados? El texto de Anne Johnson se adentra en esas preguntas, mediante su propio involucramiento en las prácticas rituales y una inquietud política afligida por la violencia creciente. El abigarramiento de las imágenes y objetos que se utilizan para recordar a un muerto o para conmemorarlo se contrapone al vacío de la desaparición; la presencia atiborrada, a la ausencia angustiosa. En ese deslinde entre la fuerza socializante de los rituales y la dispersión de la violencia, la pregunta antropológica por el dolor se aproxima a las interrogaciones estéticas: “¿cómo es que, en nuestro contacto con las obras, con las imágenes, se encuentra ya proyectada una relación con el dolor?”, se pregunta Georges Didi-Huberman (48).De la misma forma, en otros escenarios, la pregunta autoetnográfica sobre la producción del género como efecto de los usos del vestir se responde solamente en la experiencia del propio cuerpo. Acá lo que está en juego ya no es solamente el espectáculo de la presentación de sí ante un público en un proscenio, sino sobre todo la preparación del espectáculo: el trabajo de vestuario, maquillaje, accesorios, peinado; y de manera concomitante, el ensayo de gestos, poses, manierismos, tonos de voz, actitudes, van produciendo un cuerpo que se reconoce a un tiempo como mismidad y alteridad. El trabajo de Alba Pons explora formas de acceso al saber que podríamos caracterizar como un aprendizaje “en el cuerpo”, como formas de re-conocimiento del saber que reside en el cuerpo y no rebasa la esfera de lo común y lo ordinario. Y a la vez, recupera la capacidad reflexiva de las personas en situaciones donde se re-escenifican hábitos, costumbres, rituales, modales o códigos de interacción que determinan prácticas sociales vividas como “naturales”, “normales” o “normativas”.De una forma distinta, y con otros materiales, Antoine Rodríguez interroga las prácticas de un artista y performer queer mexicano que elabora escenas de violencia y de deseo utilizando su cuerpo como escenario, objeto, cuadro o desecho. Las performances de Lechedevirgen Trimegisto son rituales privados que el artista exhibe como ejecuciones públicas que no alcanzan a consumarse. Por eso, en sus prácticas está en juego la capacidad de interpelación política de algunas formas de arte, pero también un modo de elaboración del lenguaje y los afectos transidos por la violencia. Tenemos la impresión que sus trabajos no son pasajes al acto que desplieguen la violencia, pero tampoco simbolizaciones que la desplacen; son más bien un juego en el filo de lo que surge como deseo y lo que perturba como violencia. ¿No es el estigma una marca visible pero también oculta? A Lechedevirgen lo estigmatizan su deseo, su fenotipo, sus prácticas artísticas, dice Rodríguez, y a la vez él transforma su cuerpo en un arma, en un manifiesto de intensidades eróticas y políticas que no propone un discurso cerrado o coherente, sino que saca chispas, incluso con su piel y sus órganos, y suscita nuevas opacidades y brillos inéditos que muestran la intimidad, pero también la ocultan.El testimonio que escribieron Patricio Villarreal y los integrantes de Teatro Ojo, a partir de un laboratorio que realizaron en unos de los coloquios que mencionamos antes, explora un síntoma que se manifestó de forma inesperada en la vida social de México. Didi-Huberman lee un síntoma como “la fisura en los signos, la pizca de sinsentido y de no saber de dónde un conocimiento puede extraer su momento decisivo” (24). Una de sus piezas —México mi amor. Nunca mires atrás abordaba el sismo que acaeció en la capital del país en septiembre de 1985 y que dejó profundas huellas y heridas en sus habitantes. Desde una azotea del Centro Cultural de España en México, ubicado a unos metros del Templo Mayor y la Catedral Metropolitana, el colectivo teatral fue trazando un mapa visual de los distintos puntos donde habían intervenido con sus piezas. Por las ventanas podíamos ver la ciudad y sus edificios emblemáticos. Pero, por otra parte, el edificio de ese centro cultural estaba construido sobre un calmecac, antigua escuela para nobles mexicas, cuyos rastros se habían convertido en un museo de sitio subterráneo. Desde arriba se podía observar el pasado cercano y el futuro de la ciudad; abajo un pasado remoto. Teatro Ojo jugó con las temporalidades heterogéneas que se traslapaban en ese edificio.Unos meses después del laboratorio, el mismo día que se conmemoraban los 32 años del sismo de 1985, otro fuerte terremoto sacudió la ciudad y sus alrededores, mató a varios cientos de personas y dañó miles de edificios. Una fisura social atravesó la urbe; un sinsentido organizado por una coincidencia funesta desordenó las explicaciones y las narrativas sobre los terremotos; emergió un no-saber del que los habitantes de la ciudad podían extraer un momento decisivo de destrucción y pregunta. En torno a ese síntoma, en el que se repite todo como si nunca hubiese sucedido o no dejara de ocurrir, Villarreal y Teatro Ojo elaboran un texto que intenta registrar otros temblores, como los proyectos sismográficos que Aby Warburg imaginó entre las guerras mundiales desde algún sanatorio de Europa o el temblor que afectaba a Derrida en sus últimos años de vida. Sacudidas de la historia, del cuerpo o de los subsuelos.

Abstract:
FERREIRA, Roquinaldo Amaral. Cross-cultural exchange in the Atlantic World: Angola and Brazil during the Era of the Slave Trade. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2012. 262 p. Fabiana Schleumer Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP/Guarulhos) “A África e a formação do Mundo Atlântico”[1], obra primordial para a expansão e o fortalecimento dos estudos sobre o Mundo Atlântico no Brasil, trouxe novas e importantes indagações. Abordou os aspectos cotidianos da vida dos africanos na África e nas sociedades coloniais do Atlântico, enfocando a cultura, a religião e as relações de trabalho. Posteriormente, Diáspora negra no Brasil, livro organizado pela historiadora Linda Heywood, prossegue as discussões sobre a África Central e suas relações com o Brasil[2]. Desde então, o campo dos estudos sobre o Mundo Atlântico tem crescido de modo significativo entre os pesquisadores brasileiros. O livro Cross-cultural exchange in the Atlantic World: Angola and Brazil during the Era of the Slave Trade (2012), de Roquinaldo Amaral Ferreira, historiador brasileiro, Vasco da Gama Chair na Brown University e diretor associado do Center for the Study of Slavery and Justice, na mesma instituição, se alinha a esse debate: dialoga com a História e com a Historiografia do Mundo Atlântico, com especial atenção às relações entre Angola e Brasil. É imperioso destacar a respeitável contribuição do autor para a temática. Na forma de artigos[3] e capítulos de livros[4], Ferreira tem participado de modo marcante no processo de reescrita da História de Angola e suas conexões atlânticas[5]. Em “Atlantic microhistories”, o autor faz uso de informações biográficas para a reconstrução das microdinâmicas sociais, culturais e comerciais existentes em Angola no século XVIII e início do século XIX[6]. Erigido sobre sólidos postulados historiográficos, o livro de Ferreira representa um avanço significativo no processo de reescrita da História de Angola e do Brasil, pois se distancia da visão factual, política e econômica, isto é, da concepção macro-histórica, presente na historiografia angolana. O autor procura, com base na micro-história, desvendar o cotidiano e as tensões de Angola na era do tráfico de escravos e o uso de fontes históricas existentes nos arquivos e nas bibliotecas de Angola conferem singularidade ao seu trabalho. Fartamente documentado, o autor não se detém em exaustivos debates historiográficos, mas se concentra na exploração de conjuntos documentais variados: cartas, ofícios, petições, certidões, requerimentos, relatos de missionários e processos inquisitoriais, permitindo que os elementos desse corpus dialoguem entre si. Cross-cultural exchange in the Atlantic World está dividido em seis capítulos, distribuídos em 262 páginas, e faz parte da série African Studies, da Cambridge University Press. Cada capítulo apresenta ao leitor um personagem histórico a partir do qual o autor tece considerações sobre as relações entre Angola e Brasil. O livro divide-se em duas seções. A primeira abrange os três primeiros capítulos e tem como foco o estudo do tráfico itinerante feito por sertanejos e tumbeiros. Já a segunda, dos capítulos quatro a seis, atém-se às questões de caráter religioso, cultural e político. No primeiro capítulo, “An expedition to the Kingdom of Holo”, o personagem principal é Francisco Roque Souto, homem branco, que durante 22 anos serviu na Bahia como capitão de mar e desempenhou um papel importante na economia de Luanda. Assim como outros “homens de mar em fora”, Francisco controlou o tráfico com os sertões e alcançou uma posição de destaque. Sua história é o ponto de partida para a compreensão do papel dos sertanejos e suas funções no tráfico itinerante angolano. Em “Can vassals be enslaved?”, o autor mantém o foco nas questões relacionadas ao tráfico sertanejo no interior de Angola, porém, detém-se no estudo dos africanos vassalos, que viviam em territórios onde o Soba era aliado dos portugueses. Além disso, discute os perigos do tráfico itinerante, bem como suas relações com os mercadores costeiros de Luanda e Benguela. Os tumbeiros e o impacto de suas estratégias de ação ganham destaque ao longo do texto. No terceiro capítulo, “Tribunal de Mucanos”, Ferreira relata a história dos escravos Jorge Inácio e Francisca, discutindo os frágeis limites entre a escravidão e a liberdade. O Tribunal dos Mucanos foi um espaço para o apelo à liberdade e à solução dos problemas cotidianos, fundamental para cativos e nascidos livres, tendo representado a possibilidade de mudança na condição de escravização, incorporando às suas funções, a partir de sua expansão no século XIX, o caráter punitivo. Em “Slavery and society”, Ferreira apresenta e discute a escravidão em Luanda e suas implicações. O censo de 1781 apontava que 52.329 indivíduos eram escravos, ou seja, metade da população. Para cada homem branco civil havia aproximadamente três escravos em condições de porte de arma. Luanda era uma cidade miscigenada, por onde perambulavam pedreiros, carpinteiros, caixeiros, alfaiates, costureiras e ferreiros, indivíduos e classes sociais que poderiam ser encontrados no espaço social das tabernas, locais de reunião de pessoas de diferentes níveis culturais. Ao mesmo tempo, o “lazer” era um espaço de inclusão e não diferenciação. As habitações permanentes configuravam-se como mecanismos de controle social, cabendo às populações locais morar em lugares afastados da região central. A expulsão dos sujeitos dos espaços centrais também fica demonstrada no tráfico com o Brasil, pois para cá foram enviados condenados por crimes como feitiçaria. Já no quinto capítulo, “Religion and culture”, Ferreira analisa, com cuidado e rigor, a história de Mariana: mulher negra, livre, viúva, nascida em Luanda, fluente em português e quimbundo, acusada pela Inquisição portuguesa de bruxaria. Segundo o autor, ela teria se envolvido afetivamente com Fernando Martins do Amaral, um soldado carioca, enviado a Luanda como degredado, por ter cometido um assassinato no Rio de Janeiro. Mariana foi acusada pela Inquisição portuguesa, entre outras coisas, de ter erigido um santuário para o demônio, e pode ser considerada uma “ganga”, isto é, uma autoridade religiosa digna de poder e respeito em Luanda e Benguela. Durante, no mínimo, dez anos ela presidiu cerimônias religiosas, cerimônias estas que, de acordo com o autor, contestavam a ordem colonial. Tais cerimônias representam um exemplo das características do meio urbano em Luanda, onde a religião atravessou diversos estratos sociais, mantendo próximos não só os escravos e os negros fujões, mas também os distintos membros da elite local da época. No capítulo final, “Echos of Brazil”, Ferreira destaca as relações existentes entre Angola e Brasil, afirmando que não eram apenas de questões comerciais e culturais, pois os acontecimentos se revestem de uma dimensão política, e cita o processo de Independência do Brasil, em 1822, como um de seus pilares, um elo entre Benguela e Rio de Janeiro. Por fim, no epílogo, “Rebalancing Atlantic History”, o autor faz uma síntese dos debates e mudanças que, nos últimos vinte anos, têm norteado os estudos sobre o Mundo Atlântico e seus desdobramentos. Nesse contexto, merecem destaque os trabalhos desenvolvidos por Toby Green, James Sidbury e Jorge Cañizares-Esguerra. Ferreira conclui o livro defendendo que, por meio da metodologia da micro-história e do conceito de Mundo Atlântico, é possível compreender e analisar a História de Angola e do Brasil para além das dimensões estanques que predominaram em suas respectivas historiografias. Em suma, mostra-se urgente a tradução de Cross-cultural exchange in the Atlantic World. Precioso tanto na forma como no conteúdo, o livro de Ferreira constitui uma inovação nos estudos sobre o Mundo Atlântico, abordando novas questões, apontando caminhos e instigando reflexões.

Abstract:
Abstract In northern Uganda, more than 50,000 people were recruited by the Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA) between the late 1980s and 2004, mostly by force. Around half of those taken were children (under 18 years old). A large number were never seen by their families again, but more than 20,000 returned through aid-financed reception centres. Endeavours were made to reunite them with their relatives, who were mostly living in insecure displacement camps. Relatively few were subsequently visited, even after the fighting ended in 2006. Thousands of vulnerable children were largely left to their own devices. This article draws on research carried out in 2004–06 and from 2012 to 2018, and compares findings with other publications on reintegration in the region. It argues that implementing best-practice guidelines for relocating displaced children with their immediate relatives had negative consequences. The majority of children who passed through a reception centre are now settled as young adults on ancestral land, where they are commonly abused because of their LRA past. With few exceptions, it is only those who spent a long period with the LRA and who are not living on ancestral land who have managed to avoid such experiences.

Abstract:
Extended periods of parent-child separation is a stressor that some families face due to vocational factors, immigration, incarceration and other interruptions in family living arrangements. Research suggests that these families are at increased risk for child behavioral and academic difficulties, mental health issues, and other psycho-social challenges. Within military families, extended periods of separation are relatively common, but are also compounded by additional risks that accompany a military deployment. The present study employed a cross-sectional mixed-methods research design to examine adaptations that occurred across the deployment cycle in a sample of 28 military couples (with at least one child), who had recently experienced a deployment. Quantitative analyses showed that the military parents found the post deployment period more challenging than the pre deployment period, while the home parents rated the deployment period as the most challenging. Additionally, a number of interesting associations were found; for example, increased military risk during deployment was linked with higher relationship satisfaction and reduced mental health challenges after deployment. Qualitative analyses supported these interesting findings and provided examples of common resilience factors across these families along with additional indicators of how these military families adapted to separation and reunion. Results are discussed in regards to how they align with family systems theory and previous research in the area.

Abstract:
Le sentiment d'appartenance nationale au sein de la population réunionnaise semble une constante dans l'histoire de la colonie et n'a jamais été durablement remis en cause. Le travail proposé confirme pour la période étudiée sa vigueur, particulièrement à l'occasion des conflits coloniaux et mondiaux. Mais il montre aussi que cette adhésion inclut la conscience d'une singularité qui n'est pas seulement la conséquence de la géographie mais aussi le fruit de l'histoire. Le sujet permet de croiser une approche d'histoire sociale et d'histoire des représentations sur une séquence coloniale cohérente qui englobe les prémices de la Troisième République jusqu'au processus de départementalisation. En proposant de « dénationaliser le national » par le biais d'une étude se penchant sur les principes identitaires en situation coloniale, il s'agit de mettre en évidence la spécificité des processus d'acculturation en situation coloniale et l'interconnexion des territoires coloniaux (île Maurice et Madagascar) dans la définition d'un sentiment d'appartenance en cours de construction. La première partie sur le sentiment d'appartenance en situation coloniale cherche à poser les enjeux et la méthode de la recherche. La deuxième partie se penche sur les liens entre le colonialisme et le sentiment d'appartenance nationale en focalisant l'analyse sur l'impérialisme réunionnais comme vecteur d'une reconnaissance commune au reste de la Nation. La troisième partie prend en compte les différentes manifestations de patriotisme et leur influence sur la définition d'un sentiment d'appartenance nationale. Enfin, la quatrième partie se focalise sur les vecteurs de l'acculturation nationale en tenant compte du rôle de l'école, de l'église et de l'armée dans la construction d'un sentiment d'appartenance nationale spécifique à La Réunion, sentiment auquel les élites ont apporté leur concours tout en étant les principales bénéficiaires de la quête d'une reconnaissance de la Nation
The feeling of national membership among the Reunionese population seems to be a regular fact in the colony history and has never been really questioned. This work confirms its strength in the period in study, and more particularly during the colonial and world conflicts. But it also shows that this support includes the conscience of a singular feeling, which is not only the consequence of geography, but also of history. This subject allows us to mix a social historical approach with a historical representation approach on a coherent colonial period, which goes from the beginning of the Third Republic up to the region establishment. By suggesting to « denationalise the national » through a study dealing with the identity principles in a colonial situation, we mean to focus on the particular acculturation processes in a colonial period and the interconnection of colonial territories (Mauritius, Madagascar) in defining a constructing feeling of membership. The first part deals with the feeling of membership in a colonial period and tries to analyse what is at stake in the research methods. The second part studies the links between colonialism and the feeling of national membership and focuses on Reunionese imperialism as a trigger to a recognition shared by the rest of the Nation. The third part takes into account the different signs of patriotism and their influence on the definition of what a feeling of national membership is about. Finally, the fourth part focuses on the triggers of national acculturation while taking into account the role of school, church, and the army in the building up of a typical Reunionese national membership feeling, shared by the elite which mainly benefited from the quest of a recognition from the Nation

Abstract:
This chapter talks about the Ye family of Fuqing, whose most famous member, Grand Secretary Ye Xianggao, has provided an account of how his family tried to restore contact with their soldier-kin on the northern frontier. Registration as a military household entailed more than simply providing soldiers to serve in the army. It carried valuable tax exemptions. It exposed the household to potential threats and blackmail from their neighbours. The chapter also talks about distinct regulatory regimes that affected everyday life for military households. There was the civilian household registration regime, access to which insulated a family from conscription at the cost of higher corvée exactions. There was the original conscription system, whereby family members in the home village were vulnerable to conscription. And there was the reformed conscription system after the localization policy was put in place, which effectively insulated the family from conscription and enabled them to reduce their corvée obligations.

Abstract:
This chapter recounts that on November 7, 1868, Ulysses S. Grant gained election to the presidency, leading to William T. Sherman succeeding him as general-in-chief. Throughout, Sherman had abstained from political activities, but he did express enthusiasm for Grant’s win. He also made early preparations for the move to Washington. Before Grant and Sherman’s ascents to greater responsibility, they were able to enjoy one last wartime swansong with 2000 former comrades at a joint reunion of the societies of the Armies of the Cumberland, Georgia, the Ohio, and the Tennessee in Chicago on December 15–16, 1868. At the meeting, Grant and Sherman discussed the future structure of the army. Grant assured Sherman that he intended to make the arrangements that he had introduced as general-in-chief permanent. The long duel between the commanding general and secretary of war waged since 1836 over who should direct the army would be finally decided in favor of the general-in-chief. On the same day of Grant’s inauguration, he sent to the Senate his nomination of Sherman in the rank of General of the Army of the United States. The following day, John M. Schofield issued the executive order stipulating that Sherman would succeed as commanding general.

Abstract:
This chapter offers a reading of Toni Morrison’s 2012 novel Home, telling the story of a Korean War veteran’s return to the USA and his attempts to find his way in the racially segregated America of the 1950s. Discharged from the army and suffering from what we would now call post-traumatic shock syndrome, Frank Money reluctantly heads to Atlanta to find his sister and bring her home with him to Georgia—in this way, Home not only reverses the northward journey of the Great Migration, but it re-routes Odysseus’ itinerary in interesting ways. Homer’s Odyssey ends rather abruptly, and our delight at the romantic reunion of Odysseus and Penelope distracts us from the poem’s less than satisfactory way of dealing with the violence of war and the challenges of bringing that violence home. Where The Return of the Soldier focuses on the disorientation that follows from its protagonist’s inability to negotiate a successful return home from war, Morrison’s novel draws upon the restorative powers of nostalgia to reconstruct Lotus at the novel’s conclusion as a new and better home than the one Frank left behind, conjuring an image of return that is not defined as the romantic reunion of husband and wife but one that looks instead to the brother–sister family bond to attend to the themes of violence and redemption at the individual, familial, and collective levels.

Abstract:
Chapter 5 investigates how, back “home” in Britain, British military officers’ production of ornithological knowledge in the British Mediterranean helped reformulate notions of nation and “British birds.” It focuses on Captain Philip Savile Grey Reid (1845–1915), Royal Engineers, as a homeward-bound officer to Aldershot, Hampshire, to understand how ideas and practices of ornithology circulated back to Britain. Designated as “home of the British Army,” Aldershot was an integral site in the transimperial network of military garrisons across the British Empire, connecting England to the Mediterranean, India, British North America, South Africa, and the West Indies. The home station became an important posting for the reunion of family, friendship, military, and ornithological networks in England; its location in Hampshire allowed imperial military officers to ramble in the English countryside, fostering temperate cultures of nature through proper conduct in the collecting and documenting of British birds. Central to this chapter is an understanding of transimperial processes in the shaping of British military culture and the designation of national birds.

Abstract:
Many have argued that the mosaic that decorates the apsidal dome of Santa Maria in Trastevere is not a Coronation of the Virgin, but rather must be defined as a Triumph of the Virgin or Virgin in Glory. The reason for this is partly that the Virgin is not shown as she physically receives the crown from her son, Christ, and partly that the two are seated on a common throne, a synthronos. This chapter focuses on the meaning of Christ’s embrace gesture. Besides its typological significance as a reference to the bride and bridegroom from the Song of Songs, this gesture is important to understanding the picture as part of a cycle comprising several episodes, including the Virgin’s death and resurrection. The arm of Jesus and the hand he places on Mary’s shoulder must thus be read as an allusion to the soul’s reunion with God.

Abstract:
During and after the Civil War, Union army soldiers and veterans attempted to make sense of their military camping experiences, which could exemplify generational camaraderie, political organization, and national belonging. This chapter follows the career of John Mead Gould, a soldier from Portland, Maine who kept an extensive diary and published a camping manual in 1877. It also discusses the role of the Grand Army of the Republic, a veterans’ organization that organized reunions in the form of annual encampments as part of a campaign to lobby the government for veterans’ pensions. Its form of camping put forward the veteran as a new exemplar of the ideal citizen for a modern commercial age. Veterans claimed a meaningful place in a world where the nation’s social and economic underpinnings were in flux and understandings of citizenship, manhood, work, and success were shifting under their feet.

Abstract:
Christian Platonic hierarchy shapes Spenser’s epic: a hierarchic family triad, three stages of fall and of recovery. Spenser radically revises this allegory, blamingman, whomwoman lovingly seeks to cure. Books 3-5 show Britomart’s chaste power defeating all males, freeing woman from mastery and self-induced suffering. Theintellective allegory of books 1 and 2reform higher reason, then lower reason, each intripartite form:a triadic family, triple temptings, three-phasetraining of the spiritual and then natural bodies, ending withatriadic Eden.The passional allegory of books 3 and 4 is again transcendent, then immanent. Britomart brings female ascendancy by chaste skill with arms and providential goals. Sheunfolds in three heroic Graces (Florimell, Belphoebe, Amoret). In these passional books the male counterparts (Artegall, Marinell, Timias, Scudamour) are paralyzed;virtuous reunion comes by female prowess and endurance, aided by mothers and female deities. A female theologyrests on virginity and marriage, immaculate conception, Trinitarian identity, epiphanic unveilings, female endurance of a Passion. The sensate allegory of books 5 and 6 subject even Gloriana/Mercilla and Arthur toconfusing materialism. Does the ontological ‘dilation’ of books 1-6 (narrowing images of Duessa, Timias, and satyrs-salvages)show despondency about Irish terrors, or prepare for reversal in books 7-12?
