Scott, Niall, and Steve Shakespeare, eds. Helvete 2. punctum books, 2015. https://doi.org/10.21983/p3.0102.1.00.
Full textAbstract:
Not to be confused with metal studies, music criticism, ethnography, or sociology, Helvete: A Journal of Black Metal Theory is a speculative and creative endeavor, one which seeks ways of thinking that count as Black Metal events — and indeed, to see how Black Metal might count as thinking. Theory of Black Metal, and Black Metal of theory. Mutual blackening. Therefore, we eschew any approach that treats theory and Metal discretely, preferring to take the left-hand path by insisting on “some kind of connaturality between the two, a shared capacity for nigredo.” Issue 2 focuses on the theme of Inversions in Black Metal. Nailed at the heart of many a logo, suspended from the neck, held out in Satanic blessing: the inverted cross is one of black metal’s anti-icons. The antithesis of a revelation of light, it signifies an originary blasphemy. Forsaking ascension and mining a path towards the centre of the earth, black metal finds a satanic stain lodged at the core of being. However, the significance of this movement is not bound by a simple reversal. The inverted cross hangs above a swarming logic of inversion: the overturning of Christianity, but also a mimesis of Christian self-desecration; the rejection of certain forms of religion, but also of modernity’s pallid enlightenment; the invocation of strange gods of the earth, even as the earth is cursed. When thought becomes poison, it is no longer so easy to determine which way is up and which way is down. To throw down one’s head, to push oneself into the cursed earth, to occupy the place of the inverted crucified: is this to think-by-not-thinking an unconditioned rapture beyond negation and affirmation?

Full textAbstract:
Physical Education and Psychology have been sister sciences from a long time. Although body and mind seem yet distant concepts, there is enough evidence that those two instances of human existence actually are complementary parts of a single unity: the human being. Professionals from either fields tend to collaborate in the effort to build strong bridges between the psychological and the physical knowledge, however, few books tried to develop a pedagogical strategy to teach Psychology for Physical Education students. This work is the sum of the effort of several Brazilian researchers in both areas who wanted to provide a novel, yet relevant, source of information and to create a stronger connection between the science of movement and the science of mind.

Full textAbstract:
Pairing "big ideas" in marketing with the popular activity of content curation, The Rise of the Curator Class positions curation as a "humanization" movement that is restructuring the internet. Curation is set to overturn the $2.2 trillion global creative industry, revolutionizing how we create, market, and discover content. In the era of content overload and fake news, in which everything to buy, listen to, read, or watch is available online, there is one group of people who have learned to thrive in this climate of superabundance: the curator class, whose influence and power grows as more people look to them as guides. This new curator class is rewriting traditional curation, tackling the overload and making sense of it for others. In the past, curation was available to an elite few. Now, internet platforms such as Pinterest, Spotify, and Twitter empower hundreds of millions of people to curate their ideas for anyone who may be interested, revolutionizing how content is marketed and sold. The Rise of the Curator Class explains how curation is disrupting internet commerce as consumer trust moves farther away from traditional brands and closer to the curators who lead tastes, and it equips readers to think critically about how curation can work for them.

Full textAbstract:
The publication of the potters’ stamps on Gallo-Roman sigillata (Names on Terra Sigillata: An Index of Makers’ Stamps & Signatures on Gallo-Roman Terra Sigillata) offers an unparalleled opportunity for re-examining the movement of sigillata (samian) across the western provinces of the Empire between the first and third centuries AD from production centres in south, central, and eastern Gaul, and in Germany. The potters’ stamps provide a common means for quantitative analysis. This chapter examines examples where there is no decline in volume of supply of samian with distance from production centres, suggesting that this can be explained if the cost of transport was subsidized or met in full by the state, probably through the organization of the cursus publicus. Controlled supply raises further questions about the nature of luxury in the Roman world and, for Britain, of the role of London in the supply system.

Polder, Kristianna. Margaret Fell, Mother of the New Jerusalem. Oxford University Press, 2018. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780198814221.003.0011.
Full textAbstract:
This chapter examines the radical matriarchal identity of Margaret Fell (1614–1702), an indispensable figure in early Quakerism who promoted, funded, defended, and monitored the growth of the movement both in the north of England, where she was based, and across Great Britain. Fell’s identity as the ‘mother of Quakerism’ has been frequently associated with more apparently private roles, such as that of wife and mother. Fell instead lived as a Spiritual Mother in the context of the arrival of ‘the New Jerusalem’, an apocalyptic framework that challenged gendered social constraints and freed women from the curse of mother Eve. Various vignettes from Fell’s biography reveal matriarchal activities that were countercultural and politically assertive. Fell emerges as an autonomous and powerful mother, wife, and Spiritual Matriarch, free from the strictures of seventeenth-century society.

Full textAbstract:
In this chapter I examine the ways in which female writers and protesters have appropriated the Bible’s first woman in their challenges to female subordination in patriarchal culture, and in their own articulation of what it is to be ‘Woman’. In particular I focus on the significance of the figure of Eve in the history of feminism to demonstrate the importance of women’s voices in the Bible’s reception, as well as to explore the impact Genesis 2–3 has had on the women’s movement. Thus I reflect on the symbiotic relationship between women’s writing and women’s material culture and the biblical text, considering some of the interpretative strategies used within them to demonstrate that not only have women’s readings frequently worked to reject negative, derogatory images of the woman in Genesis 2–3 but that they have also actively appropriated and rewritten Eve as their champion rather than their curse.

Full textAbstract:
Lawrence Reddick (1910–1995) was among the most notable African American intellectuals of his generation. The second curator of the Schomburg Library and a University of Chicago PhD, Reddick helped spearhead Carter G. Woodson's black history movement in the 1930s, guide the Double Victory campaign during World War II, lead the Southern Christian Leadership Conference during the Cold War, mentor Martin Luther King Jr. throughout his entire public life, direct the Opportunities Industrialization Center Institute during the 1960s, and forcefully confront institutional racism within academia during the Black Power era. A lifelong Pan-Africanist, Reddick also fought for decolonization and black self-determination alongside Kwame Nkrumah, Nnamdi Azikiwe, Léopold Senghor, and W. E. B. Du Bois. Beyond participating in such struggles, Reddick documented and interpreted them for black and white publics alike. In The Scholar and the Struggle, David A. Varel tells Reddick's compelling story. His biography reveals the many essential but underappreciated roles played by intellectuals in the black freedom struggle and connects the past to the present in powerful, unforgettable ways.

H R Morris, Charles. The Law of Financial Services Groups. Oxford University Press, 2019. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/law/9780198844655.001.0001.
Full textAbstract:
Abstract Most legal textbooks and practitioners’ guides focus on the impact of financial services law and regulation as applicable to individual legal entities: the application of such law and regulation on a group basis is often a cursory afterthought, or neglected altogether. This book reverses the balance. It fully and systematically addresses how groups of businesses within the financial services sector are regulated. It starts with the company law and corporate insolvency law foundations and how they are established and formed into groups. It then builds up through prudential regulation and resolution-driven principles, focusing on how regulations apply and operate at a consolidated group and sub-group level, to the structural responses from firms and counter-responses from legislators and regulators. It also considers the tensions that arise from the conflicts between authorities and legal systems on a cross-border basis, and between the formal legal system and the powers and agendas of the regulators. The final section applies the principles explored in previous sections to a wide range of transaction types. The book covers intragroup transactions, and the role that regulation plays requiring and restricting the movement of financial resources around groups. The book is up to date as at April 2019, marking the culmination of over 10 years of intense regulatory change. It addresses UK ring-fencing rules and EU and US intermediate parent undertaking requirements, and considers the impact of Brexit and the EU banking reform/risk reduction package.

Franks, Patricia C., Lori A. Bell, and Rhonda B. Trueman, eds. Teaching and Learning in Virtual Environments. ABC-CLIO, LLC, 2016. http://dx.doi.org/10.5040/9798216022831.
Full textAbstract:
Useful to school librarians, teachers, and faculty, this book explains the range of possibilities for creating immersive learning experiences through the use of virtual worlds, virtual simulations, virtual collections, exhibits by libraries and museums, and archives. There is a renaissance occurring in education with immersive learning via virtual applications and environments, even at the elementary school level. This widespread new movement is happening over more platforms than before—Second Life, Open Sim, Unity3D, Curio, and others. Teaching and Learning in Virtual Environments: Archives, Museums, and Libraries presents readers with the scope of possibilities for education in virtual environments today. Written from the perspective of the practitioner, it provides a wealth of teaching tips for virtual environments and for combining virtual environments with other emerging technologies for libraries and education. Chapters describe how recent developments in technology have made web-based virtual worlds more accessible for teaching and learning and discuss the unique benefits and affordances of educating in virtual environments as well as their applications to different subjects. The teaching applications cover the primary and secondary school levels, higher education and graduate-level environments, and even beyond formal education into building immersive "information experiences" for professional training applications, library users, and the general public. The text provides an up-to-date overview for educators, academic and public librarians, and archives and museum staff on recent developments with immersive learning; presents innovative programs and teaching ideas; covers administrative issues; and addresses the student's perspective as well.

Harris, Matthew L. Second-Class Saints. Oxford University PressNew York, 2024. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780197695715.001.0001.
Full textAbstract:
Abstract This book provides a detailed look at how the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints lifted its long-standing ban barring Black men from the priesthood and Black families from access to Mormon temples. Adapting a Protestant teaching that Black people bore a divine curse, and reinforced by a unique Latter-day teaching that Black people were “less valiant” in a pre-earth existence, these twin teachings became the fulcrum that underpinned the church’s priesthood and temple ban. The book discusses how the ban began in 1852 under the church’s second prophet-president, Brigham Young, and ended in 1978 under the church’s twelfth prophet-president, Spencer W. Kimball. The book further highlights how the ban collided with efforts to globalize the church following the Second World War, why it forced LDS church leaders to resist the civil rights movement, why it prompted dozens of universities to boycott Brigham Young University athletic competitions, and, finally, why it led federal authorities to investigate BYU for alleged violations of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The book also details how perceived threats from the Jimmy Carter administration to revoke the church’s tax exemption status provoked a swift backlash from critics who claimed that the church lifted the ban out of political expedience. The final third of the book probes how public pressure led church leaders to repudiate Mormon racial teachings in a seminal essay called “Race and the Priesthood.”

Full textAbstract:
They’ve been referred to as the quintessential silent sales force, but they are so much more than fancy clothes hangers. Mannequins breathe life, emotion, and animation into retail environments across the world. They are works of art that tap into the emotions and aspirations of all who engage with them. Profiles of the Mannequintracks the history and evolution of these intriguing figures from the headless models of 1900 right up to today’s virtual mannequins. Exploring shifts in representation of gender, race and body type, this study chronicles the connection between mannequins and movements in art, the humanities, current affairs, and fashion. Beautifully illustrated and engagingly told, fascinating in-depth interviews with creative professionals recount their experiences, philosophies, and stories of the mannequin and its impact on our culture as both a utilitarian object and as an artistic statement. Interviewees include:-Carol Barnhart, former owner and CEO, Carol Barnhart Inc. -Harry Cunningham, former Senior Vice President Store Planning, Design, and Visual Merchandising, Saks Fifth Avenue -James Damian, former President of Hindsgaul Mannequins USA -Paul Olszewski, former National Director of Windows and Internal Flagship Marketing, Macy’s -Barbara Paris Gifford, Curator, Museum of Art and Design (MAD), New York -Ralph Pucci, mannequin designer, gallery owner and entrepreneur -Rob Smith, the CEO and Founder of the Phluid Project, the first gender-neutral store in the retail industry Profiles of the Mannequin is an exposé exploring not only the physical manifestation of the mannequin, but also the philosophies, techniques, and cultural and sociological impact of the creative visionaries who brought these seemingly inanimate objects to life. Mannequins have been referred to as the quintessential silent sales force. While they have fulfilled an important utilitarian function in terms of displaying and ultimately selling apparel, they have assumed an even greater role with a more enduring effect. They cross the line from being a strictly functional selling tool, to an infusion of life, emotion, and animation into retail environments across the world. They are works of art that tap into the emotions and aspirations of all who engage them. Moreover, they are time-honored barometers, measuring the pulse of society, and the heartbeat of culture. The evolving mannequin has consistently responded to current events, social and cultural movements, and nuances of the moment. As such, they provide an engaging historical bookmark, measuring the events and happenings of the times. This book will examine the important contributions of those who have advanced the art of the mannequin. It’s a comprehensive study of the influential authorities whose vision and perspectives serve as a guideline for all studying the social, cultural and historical impact of these sculptural forms. In assembling and documenting the many personalities or ‘Profiles of the Mannequin,’ the author conducted a series of in-depth interviews with colleagues, educators, historians, and industry leaders; including museum curators, designers, fashion forecasters, manufacturers and highly respected visual merchandising directors.

Seibert, Elke. Prehistoric Pictures and American Modernism. Bloomsbury Publishing Plc, 2023. http://dx.doi.org/10.5040/9781350185272.
Full textAbstract:
In April 1937, the Museum of Modern Art in New York hosted an exhibition that served as a catalyst for the appropriation of prehistoric rock art in postwar abstract painting. With the title Prehistoric Rock Pictures in Europe and Africa, it displayed a range of copies from the influential collection of the German ethnologist Leo Frobenius. Largely disregarded in modern American art history up until now, this book highlights the importance of this exhibition to artists such as Josef Albers, Adolph Gottlieb, David Smith, and the American Abstracts Artists group, who sought inspiration from the prehistoric images’ primordial creativity. With a transnational scope, the book brings to the surface new facts about the transatlantic connections between Paris and New York and the importance of communication and collaboration between them. In doing so, Seibert reveals that this debate was about more than just legitimizing abstract art forms from the past, but also about recognizing an autonomous American abstract art. Presenting unseen archival material, letters, and exhibition documentation, Prehistoric Pictures and American Modernism offers a new reading of the development of modern American abstraction, and will hold an important place in the historiography of the movement, its global traditions, and its legacy. This book is about the connection of prehistory and US-American modernism in the first half of Twentieth century, particularly at the Museum of Modern Art.It aims to initiate a valuable collaboration to the historiography of European and Us American art history, cultural history, visual culture, global history, and anthropology. MoMA curator Alfred Barr’s exhibition Prehistoric Rock Pictures in Europe and Africa (April 28–May 30, 1937) served as a catalyst for the appropriation of prehistoric rock painting. This show displayed a range of prehistoric rock art copies from the collection of the German ethnologist Leo Frobenius. It was my aim to situate this special example in a broader context, drawing attention on the modern interactions established between prehistoric, archaic, primitive, and indigenous art, and their reception by European and U.S. avant-garde artists who helped define postwar abstraction. Indeed, largely disregarded in modern American art history until now, this book highlights the vital importance of this exhibition to artists such as Josef Albers, Adolph Gottlieb, David Smith, and The American Abstracts Artists group. With unseen archival material, letters, and exhibition documentation, this book will hold an important place in the historiography of modern American art, its global traditions, and its legacy.
