Full textAbstract:
The fine modern scholarship on Athenian law has concentrated on (a) the scope of particular laws, and (b) the technical aspects of the legal process. This paper attempts to examine how the legal system worked in practice.The Athenians classified legal cases in various ways. On the one hand there was a division by subject matter between private cases (dikai idiai) and public cases (dikai dēmosiai), and on the other there was a division according to the procedure involved. There were a number of specialised procedures, but the most important procedural division was between those cases which anyone was free to bring (graphai) and those which only an interested party could bring (dikai in the narrow sense). These divisions on grounds of subject matter and on grounds of procedure overlap, but they are distinct and neither corresponds to the modern European legal division between civil and criminal cases.

Abstract This essay charts the outlines of the historical transition from the artisanal workshop to the artist’s studio and the transition from the artisan to the artist, not through the transition from patronage to the art market but through an analysis of the transformation of labour’s social division of labour. The essay reassesses the discourses on the artist as genius and the artist as worker through a reinterpretation of the elevation of the Fine Arts above handicraft. This sheds new light, also, on the discourse of deskilling in art. This essay argues that the transition from the artisan to the artist is an effect of the social division of labour in which the knowledge, skills and privileges of the master artisan are distributed among a set of specialists.

The article presents some features of Russian-Chinese cooperation in the field of teacher training for China. Moscow Pedagogical State University together with Weinan Pedagogical University not only implements joint educational programs of pedagogical profile, but also forms a new system of educational process management in the joint structural educational division of the Chinese University. The implementation of joint educational programs in the field of preschool education, training of teachers of fine arts and music was the first project based on intergovernmental agreements between Russia and China on the creation of a joint structural educational unit in a Chinese University. The project is related to the development of modern approaches to teacher training for the People’s Republic of China based on the achievements of the Russian model of teacher training.

Full textAbstract:
We tested the hypothesis that engagement in the arts may act as a catalyst that promotes prosocial cooperation. Using “Understanding Society” data (a nationally representative longitudinal sample of 30,476 people in the UK), we find that beyond major personality traits, demographic variables, wealth, education, and engagement in other social activity (sports), people’s greater engagement with the arts predicts greater prosociality (volunteering and charitable giving) over a period of 2 years. The predictive effect of prosociality on subsequent arts engagement is significantly weaker. The evidence is consistent with the hypothesis that the arts provide an important vehicle for facilitating a cohesive and sustainable society. Fostering a society in which engagement in the arts is encouraged and accessible to all may provide an important counter to economic, cultural, and political fracture and division.

Full textAbstract:
Fantastic Art, Dada, Surrealism (1936), curated by Alfred H. Barr at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), New York, was the first major exhibition of outsider art at the epicentre of the art world. The entrance of outsider art in the art museum coincided with the changing role of the curator: from a custodian of fine arts to an exhibition author with creative agency. The disconnection of outsider art from canonized art history and the peculiar appearance of the works and their makers inspired new curatorial narrations and settings. Barr’s inclusive vision of modern art and curation was, however, strongly criticized, and a few years later that vision was replaced by a hierarchical one demanding the exclusion of outsider art from the art museum. The developments at MoMA between 1936 and 1943 exemplify how outsider art served as a catalyst for the curatorial turn in which the division between the roles of curator and artist began to shift.

Full textAbstract:
The bipolar spindle is a highly dynamic structure that assembles transiently around the chromosomes and provides the mechanical support and the forces required for chromosome segregation. Spindle assembly and chromosome movements rely on the regulation of microtubule dynamics and a fine balance of forces exerted by various molecular motors. Chromosomes are themselves central players in spindle assembly. They generate a RanGTP gradient that triggers microtubule nucleation and stabilization locally and they interact dynamically with the microtubules through motors targeted to the chromatin. We have previously identified and characterized two of these so-called chromokinesins: Xkid (kinesin 10) and Xklp1 (kinesin 4). More recently, we found that Hklp2/kif15 (kinesin 12) is targeted to the chromosomes through an interaction with Ki-67 in human cells and is therefore a novel chromokinesin. Hklp2 also associates with the microtubules specifically during mitosis, in a TPX2 (targeting protein for Xklp2)-dependent manner. We have shown that Hklp2 participates in spindle pole separation and in the maintenance of spindle bipolarity in metaphase. To better understand the function of Hklp2, we have performed a detailed domain analysis. Interestingly, from its positioning on the chromosome arms, Hklp2 seems to restrict spindle pole separation. In the present review, we summarize the current knowledge of the function and regulation of the different kinesins associated with chromosome arms during cell division, including Hklp2 as a novel member of this so-called chromokinesin family.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractFor Dewey education is the growth of mental powers, where “growth” has no fixed content but involves the increasing harmonization of individuals with society. That harmonization must respect the uniqueness of each person and his capacity for intelligence. Education aims to develop a model democratic society, which Dewey sees as similar to an ideal community of scientific inquirers. That comparison is highly questionable, however. Dewey's curricular emphases include science, geography, history, literature, and fine arts, the last two of which promote a greater appreciation for all of human life—provided society is not too separated into classes. Related to social division is what he considers the false problems of epistemology, with its separation between mind and world. But Dewey's failure to think more rigorously about the relation of philosophy to science makes his philosophy a poor bulwark against postmodernism.

The essence of the series of essays published by the journal is that with the maximum compactness of the presentation it provides a summary of the main phenomena of world artistic culture, covered in general both from the point of view of the overall historical process and in relation to the various forms of art (literature, fine arts, architecture, music, theater and cinema). At the same time, there is a tendency to overcome the customary categorization of national schools and the division into separate forms of art with the genre specification inherent in each of them, which meets the positive trends of globalization and provides a holistic view of artistic phenomena. The following artistic and historical periods are examined in stages: the Ancient World, Antiquity, the Middle Ages, the Renaissance, the Baroque Era, the Enlightenment, Romanticism, Post-Romanticism, the First Modern Age I, the Second Modern Age, the Third Modern Age, the Post-Modern Age, and as an afterword — “The Golden age of Russian Artistic Culture”.

AbstractIn recent years, the work of the American Monuments Men has been celebrated in popular histories and culture, such as bestselling books by Robert Edsel and a feature film directed by George Clooney (The Monuments Men, 2014). While public awareness of Nazi art looting and the courageous work of American cultural officers is long overdue, these popular narratives elide the role played by women and other Western Allies and fail to address the corps’ greatest failure: the incomplete restitution of Jewish assets. This article explores these factors through a case study of British Major Anne Olivier Popham (1916–2018), who served the Monuments, Fine Arts, and Archives (MFA&A) division in Bünde from November 1945 to October 1947. Drawing on Popham’s diaries held at the Imperial War Museum in London, the author’s interview with her, and British and American archives, the case study yields important insight into personnel recruited by the MFA&A, gender relations among the officers, methodological dilemmas presented by the use of first-hand accounts, and the ongoing need for transnational restitution efforts.

Le but de cet article est d’abord d’enrichir l’exposé sur l’apport des magistri artium dans Le Discours intérieur de Claude Panaccio par l’examen approfondi d’une citation de l’al-Fārābī latin clôturant la présentation de la logique dans la Divisio scientiarum (vers 1250) du maître ès arts de Paris Arnoul de Provence (Arnulfus Provincialis). Ensuite, cet examen accompli à l’aide des diverses versions ou adaptations latines de l’Énumération des sciences (Iḥṣāʾ al-ʿulūm) farabienne (par Gérard de Crémone et Gundissalinus), il ressort que, malgré une certaine dualité dans sa tradition manuscrite, le passage concerné de la Division des sciences d’Arnoul de Provence ne se borne pas à distinguer logos intérieur et logos extérieur, mais considère aussi, comme sa source, un troisième logos, et cela d’une manière susceptible d’affiner la caractérisation de la triade du logos chez al-Fārābī telle qu’en rend compte Le Discours intérieur dans son judicieux rapprochement avec une doctrine parallèle chez Jean Damascène (Ekdosis akribès tès orthodoxou pisteôs ou De fide orthodoxa) interprétée autrement par Thomas d’Aquin à la suite d’Albert le Grand.

The online learning situation certainly requires special adjustments in the field of education. In Junior High School the learning strategy applied by the teacher must be effective in the learning process, so that it can achieve the expected final results. This study aims to reveal online learning strategies in the Cultural Arts class with Music Theory at Sultan Iskandar Muda Junior High School, Medan. Qualitative research with a descriptive approach in explaining the findings of information in the field. The results of this study are there are 3 strategies used by teachers, namely 1) direct learning strategies, 2) indirect learning strategies, and 3) independent learning strategies, using a student-centered learning approach as the subject of study. This online learning strategy is quite effective, because students are not only able to find one starting sign of one scale, but also various starting signs of one scale. The learning strategy carried out by the supporting teacher also makes it easier for students to understand the concept of early signs.

The purpose of the article is to analyze, identify the general and particular in the organization of the compositional space of painting for the most accurate display of the artistic image in the visual arts. The analysis of the main types of space in the composition is given; a fundamental division into realistic and conditional space is proposed in solving the artistic image of fine art; the concept of an artistic image is defined and the main means of conveying its expressiveness in composition are identified. The article discusses the basic concepts, techniques and principles of organizing space on the picture plane in the visual arts. It is determined that the compositional features of the organization of threedimensional space are due to the use of linear, inverse, perceptual, spherical and light-air perspectives of building both its individual elements and the entire structure of the composition of a work of art. The role of space in the creation of an artistic image within the framework of realistic and conditional painting is analyzed. The authors of the article came to the conclusion that the principles and methods of working on realistic and conditional composition have both common and particular. The general techniques for creating a compositional space include the basic laws of composition, such as the organization of the center, balance, rhythm, movement, statics, nuance and identity, as well as the stethoair perspective. The use of the laws of various types of perspective differs (for a realistic solution of an artistic image and space of a composition, linear, perceptual perspectives are used; for a conditional solution of a composition, reverse, spherical perspectives and axonometric methods of constructing a form in space are used). The ways of working with color and shape also differ.

The purpose of the article is to analyze, identify the general and particular in the organization of the compositional space of painting in order to most accurately display the artistic image. The object of the study is the three-dimensional space in the visual arts. The subject is the basic laws of the organization and construction of realistic and conditional space in the visual arts. The analysis of the main types of space in the composition of painting is given. A fundamental division into realistic and conditional space in the solution of the artistic image of fine art is proposed. The concept of an artistic image is defined and the main means of conveying its expressiveness in a composition are identified, namely: format, space, compositional center, symmetry and asymmetry, balance, rhythm, dynamics and statics, color, texture, and so on. The article deals with the basic concepts, techniques and principles of the organization of space on the picture plane in the visual arts. It is determined that the compositional features of the organization of three-dimensional space are due to the use of linear, inverse, perceptual, spherical and light-air perspectives in the construction of both individual elements and the entire structure of the composition of a work of art. The role of different types of space in creating an artistic image within the framework of realistic and conventional painting is analyzed. The results of the work can be used in the educational and creative processes of creating works of fine art, in educational and methodological work, art studies. The proposed systematization of the spatial solution of the image allows us to consider the possibilities of realistic and conventional painting in order to fully reflect the idea and ideological position of the author of the work of art. In the process of analyzing and comparing the organization of the space of realistic and conventional images of the artistic image, the authors of the article came to the conclusion that the principles and techniques of working on the composition have a general and particular. The basic laws of composition, such as the organization of the center, balance, rhythm, movement and static, nuance and identity, from perspective – light-air, work equally for realistic and conventional images. The difference is marked by the use of the laws of different types of perspective (for the realistic solution of the artistic image and the space of the composition, linear, perceptual and light-air perspectives are used; for the conditional solution of the composition, the inverse, spherical perspective and axonometric methods of constructing a shape in space are used), as well as different ways of working with color and shape.

Full textAbstract:
Halal in Islam is a wide concept. It does not only cover dietary consumption, indulgence and services but also other matters under the rubric of halal and haram including the divi- sion of matrimonial property. The practice of dividing matrimonial property is often asso- ciated with unfairness to the claiming parties due to the non-clarity of the existing provi- sion in providing appropriate and fair meth- ods. The current provision causes the court to adopt different interpretations in ascertaining allocated shares to the divorced parties. This is mainly because contribution is considered as a sole criterion in dividing the assets. Other factor such as well-being of the minor depen- dent are often disregarded. Thus, the study aims to examine the effective law being used by the court in dividing matrimonial property of those couple who have divorced. Content analysis was conducted on a carefully select- ed sample of unreported cases, collected from six zones representing Shariah Courts in Ma- laysia. A total of 215 samples were selected for the study where analysis was made based on several variables such as the mode of divi- sion, scope of matrimonial asset, elements of consideration and proportion of share. Find- ing of this study indicates that contribution remains as a sole criterion used by the court to determine the share of parties. Thus, this study suggests that in order to commensurate the actual practice of the Shariah Court, it is pertinent that the issue should be resolved by amending the existing law, taking into consideration a lot of other factors for fair and equitable proportions in the division of matrimonial assets thereby preserving the halal status of the property dispersal.

Abstract The article intends to show: a) that the modist Martin of Dacia sides with the traditional reading of the first chapter of Aristotle’s De interpretatione that we find in masters of arts from the first half of the thirteenth century; and b) that the modist Boethius of Dacia is one of the first thirteenth-century scholars to depart from this reading. In fact, Boethius presents us with an account of propositional verification where the terms’ signification is not operational and where the immediate truth-maker of statements like ‘homo est animal’ is an external state of affairs. In Martin’s case, to the contrary, the terms’ signification is operational in his account of propositional verification and the immediate truth-bearer of such statements is a mental composition or division.

The relation of any fine art expresses the elixir of human, physical, and physical world. As civilization grows more and more civilized and cultured, the development of fine arts reaches its peak. Music is a major part of the fine arts. The place of music in Indian civilization is paramount in the fine arts. The great Indian civilization has been underlining the importance of music education since its height. From ancient Vedic and medieval to modern times, the Indian educational system has been concentrating on the education of music; all its parts such as singing, playing and dancing. In the present era, radical changes in the teaching system can be reflected. Divisions like traditional and distance education can also be reflected in the teaching system. Today, the importance of a flexible and alternative system of remote education system cannot be denied. Needless to say that through remote learning, changes in the importance of traditional teaching of music, guruship relations, internal learning method of music and music in life; the importance of all its organs. In the present era, while on the one hand there has been a remarkable change in social and personal life, changes in the teaching method of all subjects can also be targeted. The importance of many new dimensions developed in music education through remote means can be understood. State-of-the-art mediums such as audio, audio, video via Internet, sophisticated equipment of communication, television and radio etc. can be used successfully in music teaching by remote media.The objective of the paper presented is to find a way to solve the problems arising out of it and the benefits of acquiring higher education of Indian classical music through a distance learning system.

They prove an algebraic property of such squares and enumerate by computer all such squares up to n = 6. The original Yemeni square spells out the name Ali in square Kufic script; the reader may be able to find other examples of words in the figures provided in the article.

Full textAbstract:
From a perspective of conceptual economy, rather than the specialized literature on genre, this text discusses what genre divisions can do when applied to cultural artifacts compared to other forms of classification or typology? On which aspect of the artifact is it rewarding for a concept of genre to operate, and what is achieved when extending its use beyond traditional divisions in fine arts, Hollywood movies and popular music? Are there restrictions inherent to the concept of genre itself, explicable in a grammar of the concept? The criteria unfolded by such a grammar seems to be more technical than properly aesthetic, close to the ideal of perfection in traditional normative poetics. With one significant addition, the criteria are always too specific to allow for the perfect example of genre. Perfection belongs to the law of the genre, not to the artifact enforcing the law. Imperfection may indeed explain the resilience of the genre form. What remains is a vertical structure, a model for which even the model example is a fall from grace.

The paper explores selected issues related to the possibility of establishing a selfgovernment civil service in Poland. The analysis was carried out from the perspective of recognizing selfgovernment administration (public administration at the level of local government) as public administration conceived in terms of formal and doctrinal assignment of public administration being part of executive power in the classical triad of power division. Empirical data were demonstrated illustrating the characteristics of appointments as the basis of the employment relationship in the civil service corps, and periodically of the local government employees, as a factor stabilizing staff fluctuation in public administration. The main objective was to find an answer, on the basis of the collected data, to the research question whether local government administration should become a permanent element of professional public administration as an element of the civil service corps.

Anyone looking for it now would never find it: it was demolished many years back to make way for the enormous biochemistry laboratories of a more modern Harvard. The ghosts of its Maya archaeologists–almost all gone now–must wander like disconsolate wraiths among the glassware and computer screens.

Abstract Evelyn Tucker, a Monuments, Fine Arts, and Archives (MFA&A) representative, worked in the US military–occupied zone of Austria, investigating and restituting Nazi-plundered, Austrian-owned cultural property between 1946 and 1949. Her experiences remain hidden despite passing references in the scholarship covering Allied restitution of Nazi-looted, Jewish-owned cultural property, as the literature focuses on postwar Germany, not Austria. She attempted to openly criticize the US Army for the thefts by blaming the Army’s appalling behavior on its lack of understanding US restitution efforts. However, she was incapable of stopping this gross negligence, and her condemnation of the Army led to her dismissal. I argue that contentious political divisions within the Allies’ policymaking in occupied Austria stalled Tucker’s restitution investigations, thus her work deserves critical investigation. Tucker defied expectations, and a thoughtful analysis of her contributions to the restitution process helps us gain a clearer appreciation of the political and cultural chaos of occupied Austria. In relationship to that gap, my archival research sheds light on the underappreciated role of Eve Tucker in her fight for rightful restitution.

Full textAbstract:
The economic shutdown and national lockdown following the outbreak of COVID-19 have increased demand for unpaid work at home, particularly among families with children, and reduced demand for paid work. Concurrently, the share of the workforce that has relocated its workplace to home has also increased. In this article, we examine the consequences of these processes for the allocation of time among paid work, housework, and care work for men and women in Israel. Using data on 2,027 Israeli adults whom we followed since the first week of March (before the spread of COVID-19), we focus on the effect of the second lockdown in Israel (in September) on the gender division of both paid and unpaid work. We find that as demand for housework caused by the lockdown increases, women—especially with children—increase their housework much more than men do, particularly when they work from home. The consequences of work from home and other flexible work arrangements for gender inequality within the family are discussed.

The main purpose of this research is to examine the potential of students who take violin education in Divisions of Music Education, in recognizing and implementing musical dynamics; to introduce the interaction between each other, to measure the impacts of building awareness on musical dynamics during the process of implementation, and to find out whether these cases differ or not, according to the types of high school which the students graduated from and their grade levels. Experimental and descriptive methods have been used together in this study. In descriptive part, a scale consisting of written questions have been used in order to measure the students’ potential of recognizing the musical dynamics. In experimental part, the pretest-posttest design with one group have been used and implemented to 3rd grade and 4th grade students who are studying at AUKKFE Department of Fine Arts Education, Division of Music Education. During the implementation, two records have been filed and these records have been processed to the observation form by the domain experts, by using “Five-Unit Likert Scale”. In the light of the obtained results, it has been determined that; in the implementation of musical dynamics, there are no differences in terms of the grade level and type of high school having been graduated from. While the answers given by the students to the written questions show an accuracy, it has been observed that they obtained low marks in the pretest. The success rate has risen in the posttest with making the musical dynamics in the notes more apparent, and without any guidance. In conclusion, it has been found that recognizing the musical dynamics does not help the implementation process; and building simple awarenesses contributes to the playing of musical dynamics. ÖzetBu araştırmanın amacı; Müzik Eğitimi Anabilim Dallarında keman eğitimi alan öğrencilerin müzikal dinamikleri bilme ve uygulayabilme durumlarını incelemek; incelenen bu iki durumun birbirleri ile etkileşiminin nasıl olduğunu ortaya koymak; uygulama aşamasında müzikal dinamikler üzerinde farkındalık yaratmanın etkilerini ölçmek; mezun oldukları lise türlerine ve sınıf düzeylerine göre bu durumların farklılık gösterip göstermediğini ortaya koymaktır. Bu araştırmada deneysel ve betimsel yöntem bir arada uygulanmıştır. Betimsel kısımda öğrencilerin müzikal dinamikleri bilme durumlarının ölçülmesi için yazılı sorulardan oluşan bir ölçek kullanılmıştır. Deneysel kısımda tek gruplu ön test-son test modeli uygulanarak AÜKKEF Güzel Sanatlar Eğitimi Bölümü Müzik Eğitimi Anabilim Dalı üçüncü ve dördüncü sınıf keman öğrencilerine uygulanmıştır. Uygulama aşamasında iki kayıt alınmış bu kayıtlar, ilgili alan uzmanları tarafından “Beşli Likert Ölçeği” kullanılarak gözlem formuna işlenmiştir. Elde edilen bulgular ışığında müzikal dinamikleri uygulamada, sınıf düzeyi ve mezun olunan lise türü değişkenleri açısından bir farklılık olmadığı belirlenmiştir. Öğrencilerin yazılı sorulara verdiği cevaplar büyük oranda bir doğruluk gösterirken, ön testte düşük puanlar aldıkları görülmüştür. Son testte herhangi bir yönlendirmede bulunulmadan notalar üzerindeki müzikal dinamiklerin daha dikkat çekici hale getirilmesi ile başarı grafiği yükselmiştir. Sonuç olarak, müzikal dinamikleri bilmenin bunları uygulamaya yardımcı olmadığı, basit farkındalıklar yaratmanın müzikal dinamiklerin çalınmasına olumlu katkısı olduğu sonucu ortaya çıkmıştır.

The Katu people in Hoa Vang district, Danang city, have a branch on the progress of the ethnic division of the Katu people in Quang Nam province. Their population is 1000 Katu people taking slash-and-burn agriculture as the main economic base and other supporting economic activities such as gathering, hunting, fishing, breeding, and handicraft. However, recently in industrialization and modernization taking place dramatically across the country, the Katu community in Hoa Vang, Da Nang city, has changed all life aspects, especially in material culture. There have been changes in village structure, house patterns, costume characteristics, gastronomy, means of transportation, and tools of production. Some have remained traditionally intact, but some have been lost or transformed. This status is a context with many inevitable and objective reasons that will naturally occur in integration, industrialization, and modernization (Louis Wirth,1945; Michael Jackson, 2013). This article provides an overview of the material cultural change of the Katu community here. Besides, it analyzes\decodes these changing trends from cultural anthropology to find out interventions, active supports, or give predictions intending to minimize the distortion and oblivion of material culture, contributing to preserving the traditional culture of the ethnic group.

Since 1997, I have returned to and revisited textile materials through different types of approaches. As an artist, I have been working with soft sculptures and immersive installations. As an artist-teacher, I sought to (re-)introduced wool felting tradition to teacher students in Norway. As a researcher, I re-turn (Barad, 2014) my approach to wool felting and engage diffractively (ibid.) within teacher education.
I am now still exploiting a performative approach to the subject of arts and craft within teacher education. This approach is conjointly inspired by contemporary visual art form of expressions and by Barad’s performative ontology.
In this text I attempt to convey my working processes as I relate how I started to engage with a performative approach to drawing in the field of arts and craft in teacher education, and how I now aim to enact further a performative approach to wool felting. This approach is inspired by post-humanism perspectives. Consequently, traditional binaries or dichotomies one can find in assumptions related to the humanities, as subject-object and theory-practice (van der Tuin and Dolphijn, 2010), are here deterritorialized to be simultaneously and differently reterriorialized (Deleuze and Guattari,1980). My approach goes thus beyond the theory-practice division to hold an intra-active pedagogy (Lenz Taguchi, 2010) and an ethico-onto-epistemological framework (Barad, 2007). This implies a set of mind considering an intimated relationship between making, being and knowing: all those aspects are present under a creative process, not isolated and nor independent of the process. Adopting a performative approach with my students, I do not necessarily privilege a linear approach and I do not necessarily privilege human agency above non-human entities. Following an ethico-onto-epistemological framework means here to merge the phenomenon of felting (beings) and its written study and analysis (ways of knowing).

It is difficult to frame Anton Raphael Mengs in a specific stylistic movement nowadays that the chronological divisions and the consequent definitions of the art of the Enlightenment are going to be more and more controversial. Because of his eclectic and cosmopolitan activity, his ideas about Ideal Beauty spread across the countries affected by the apprehensions and hopes related to the 18th century. The bohemian painter dedicated his entire life to the study of ancient art; his marble collection of the statues from the great Italian collections interested the artists coming to the Eternal City, and he consecrates esthetic models of different epochs. Mengs never get away from these models – Ancient Greece, Raffaello Sanzio, Tiziano Vecellio, Antonio Correggio. His presence in Spain was favored by propitious circumstances: the coronation of an erudite, educate king, lover of Fine Arts, Charles III of Spain, a king so intimately close to the painter to guarantee him his protection in the difficult relation between Mengs and the San Fernando Academy of Fine Arts in Madrid. The relation between the Institution and the Bohemian get complicated because of the different ideas about the organization of the academy and the education of the students. Because of the little original sources, several matters have not been resolved, for example the issue about the false ancient fresco of Jupiter and Ganymede, or the controversy about the Peñacase, that brought to the final breakup between the artist and the consiliarios in San Fernando Institution. Mengs focused his attention in an even worse matter about the direction of the academy: concretely, which competences had to have the consiliarios and which the teachers. When Mengs asked to be accepted in the academy, he undoubtedly thought that the Institution was structured as the other great one in which he took part in Italy, San Luca National Academy in Rome. Within Mengs’ proposals to raise the level of the Academy in Madrid there was the institution of anatomy and surgery teachings, which intent was to revolutionize the concept of painters and sculptors. In spite of the difficulties that the first painter of Charles III had during his stay in San Fernando, his acting had a fundamental role in developing the Art Theory and particularly in the European artists’ training.

Full textAbstract:
Forager societies tend to value egalitarianism, cooperative autonomy, and sharing. Furthermore, foragers exhibit a strong gendered division of labor. However, few studies have employed a cross-cultural approach to understand how forager children learn social and gender norms. To address this gap, we perform a meta-ethnography, which allows for the systematic extraction, synthesis, and comparison of quantitative and qualitative publications. In all, 77 publications met our inclusion criteria. These suggest that sharing is actively taught in infancy. In early childhood, children transition to the playgroup, signifying their increased autonomy. Cooperative behaviors are learned through play. At the end of middle childhood, children self-segregate into same-sex groups and begin to perform gender-specific tasks. We find evidence that foragers actively teach children social norms, and that, with sedentarization, teaching, through direct instruction and task assignment, replaces imitation in learning gendered behaviors. We also find evidence that child-to-child transmission is an important way children learn cultural norms, and that noninterference might be a way autonomy is taught. These findings can add to the debate on teaching and learning within forager populations.

While politicians and scholars have debated the meaning, value, and purposes of multiculturalism for decades, less attention has been paid to the views of a broader group of Britons. In this paper I analyze the meaning of multiculturalism for elite university students in Britain. Many British leaders spend their early adulthood in elite universities. Do they hold the same conceptions of multiculturalism that scholars, the media, and politicians espouse? And, do they express strong support for multiculturalism (as they understand it) as discussions about political division in Britain assume? This paper answers these important questions by analyzing 67 in-depth interviews with undergraduates at Oxford University. I find that students define multiculturalism as a diverse array of ethnic groups living in the same society. Most simultaneously report little impact on their lives. Still, a significant minority express concerns about a perceived lack of integration and impingement on traditional British culture. These findings demonstrate precarious support for multiculturalism even among those who express more tolerant, inclusive understandings of British society related to immigration and Brexit in opinion polls.

The article deals with the analysis of the didactic potentialof advertising as an authentic material used in the study offoreign languages. At the lessons focusing on RegionalStudies issues, advertising texts are thought to be the basis forimplementing all of the education system components: theselection of subject and language material, presentation ofselected material for students, and its further activization.At the same time, the authentic material has certain features,including fragmentation, division into small parts, and mosaics.Manifestations of fragmentation in fiction, painting, music andInternet discourse are systematized. Analyzing the results ofprevious research, promising and retrospective activities inrelation to the main stage of work are discovered, aimed atpartially smoothing the fragmentary nature of the material, workwith it and socio-cultural ideas that are formed in students. Themain part of the article substantiates the effectiveness of anotherway to achieve the integrity and coherence of educationalmaterial. It is about emphasizing the connection between twoadjacent advertising texts, their simultaneous demonstration anduse. The idea of pendant corresponds to this way of organizingmaterial in the fine arts. The logic of the pendant is thatcombining two objects makes it possible to observe, study andcompare, creating a volume. The role of comparison in learningis considered and relevant tasks based on advertising areproposed. It turns out that the students’ heuristic search createsthe optimal psychological basis to obtain objectively correctsocio-cultural information when comparing connections andrelationships between paired texts as well as objects andphenomena that are reflected in them. The principle of pendantis also embodied in the famous game Memory. The pairs areseparate advertising texts of culturally oriented topics («Yearin France: dates, holidays, events», «French regions», «Paris»,«History of France»), which together are able to present anobject / phenomenon / event from different sides, with differentfeatures, in dynamics. The general rules of this game andadditional recommendations on how to play are given. Theactivity content is illustrated by the description of the denotationcard related to the history of France. The proposed methods ofwork may be included in the main activity aimed at forminglinguistic and socio-cultural competency among students withthe use of advertising materials. The didactic material andmethods of working with it can also be used in studying Frenchat the advanced level in secondary school.

UNA FATTORIA ETRUSCA NEL PODERE TARTUCHINOGli scavi della fattoria etrusca rinvenuta nel podere Tartuchino (GR) sono stati compiuti in due successive campagne, eseguite nel 1985 e nel 1986. Lo scopo di questo articolo è quello di fornire una descrizione dei resti strutturali, completata da una ricostruzione della sequenza cronologica entro la quale questi sono stati edificati, un catalogo dei rinvenimenti e, infine, di dare una interpretazione dei dati ottenuti da un punto di vista economico e sociale. Il sito fu frequentato inizialmente durante l'Età del Bronzo, ma nessuna delle strutture scavate può essere riferita a questo periodo. L'occupazione etrusca è datata tra la fine del sesto e il quarto secolo a.C. La più antica struttura individuata è una ambiente rettangolare costruito in pietra con un portico ligneo e un tetto coperto da tegole. Tale struttura fu ingrandita durante la prima metà del quinto secolo e trasformata in un edificio con quattro ambienti principali ed un cortile parzialmente recintato. All'interno di tali ambienti sono stati rinvenute numerose buche di palo, interpretate come i resti di divisioni interne. L'ambiente più grande conteneva un focolare e un pithos interrato che probabilmente veniva usato per la produzione del vino. La fattoria fu abbandonata in seguito ad un incendio. Le evidenze ottenute durante gli scavi circa la produzione di vino, grano e tessuti sono qui usate allo scopo di formulare un'ipotetica ricostruzione dell'organizzazione economica del sito. Vengono inoltre confrontati i dati architettonici con quelli ottenuti da altre strutture scavate in siti dell'Etruria e del Lazio, databili ad eta arcaica e classica.

AbstractHardin’s Tragedy of the Commons has often been cited as the rationale for the privatization of pastures throughout the world, yet rangeland degradation is still widespread. A significant body of ecological research has demonstrated negative impacts from limiting herd movement through fencing. The privatization of pastures has often followed heterogeneous patterns. We use a natural experiment in common grazing areas on the eastern Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau where land use was privatized beginning in 1999 following different land use division patterns. We measure the relationship between land use privatization paths and grassland quality using satellite data from 1989 to 2011 in five different villages, and compare how well herder environmental perceptions match satellite data. We find that rangeland degradation has significantly increased following privatization of land use, and that grassland in small individually managed fenced plots is deteriorating more significantly than in larger fenced areas with group herding. We further find that herders’ had accurate perceptions of the state of their pastures that closely match remotely sensed data.

Full textAbstract:
A normalized gaussian network (NGnet) (Moody & Darken, 1989) is a network of local linear regression units. The model softly partitions the input space by normalized gaussian functions, and each local unit linearly approximates the output within the partition. In this article, we propose a new on-line EM algorithm for the NGnet, which is derived from the batch EM algorithm (Xu, Jordan, & Hinton 1995), by introducing a discount factor. We show that the on-line EM algorithm is equivalent to the batch EM algorithm if a specific scheduling of the discount factor is employed. In addition, we show that the on-line EM algorithm can be considered as a stochastic approximation method to find the maximum likelihood estimator. A new regularization method is proposed in order to deal with a singular input distribution. In order to manage dynamic environments, where the input-output distribution of data changes over time, unit manipulation mechanisms such as unit production, unit deletion, and unit division are also introduced based on probabilistic interpretation. Experimental results show that our approach is suitable for function approximation problems in dynamic environments. We also apply our on-line EM algorithm to robot dynamics problems and compare our algorithm with the mixtures-of-experts family.

Full textAbstract:
Surakarta City, a secondary city in Indonesia, has been threatened by floods for many decades due to the overflow of rivers and an inadequate urban drainage system. On top of that, inelastic time-bound city planning has made the city susceptible to ever-increasing flood threats. The local authority has attempted to minimize flood risk through particular structural mitigations of the urban drainage system, which it has authority to do, while the overall responsibility for flood control and river management is under central authority. The different responsibilities of these two different levels of authority have led to gaps and overlaps in relation to the same objects of interest. On one hand, the city authority is concerned with city planning, and on the other hand, the flood control and river management authority is responsible for combatting flooding problems and river management within the watershed. This issue is an interesting point to investigate. In order for Surakarta to become a resilient city, it is imperative to synergize the efforts of these two different levels of authorities. This study aims to find the synergistic and optimal solutions by means of a negotiated planning and management system that involves both authorities. Critical evaluation and assessment of relevant documents, field observations, and measurements, as well as acquiring expert opinions were the main methods used in this study. We propose a ZOPA (Zone of Possible Agreement) model to optimize agreement among the stakeholders. The model essentially highlights the common interests and sets aside the conflicting points among stakeholders. The study found that there are potential points to negotiate with regard to the division of responsibilities through a shared vision of the coordinated institutions and shared planning and management in the direction of synergistic determination.

Full textAbstract:
The complex politics that convulsed Turkestan in 1917 remains one of the least understood aspects of the Russian revolution. A structure of dual power emerged along the familiar liberal-radical divide, but in Turkestan both sides represented the small European (largely Russian) settler population and both were united in an attempt to exclude the indigenous population from participation in the revolutionary process. Parallel political movements developed among the local population, but the axes of division were quite different than those among the settler population. The two political movements interacted in numerous ways throughout the year, producing a pattern of conflict that was in many ways unique in the Russian empire. Western scholarship, hamstrung by lack of access to primary materials, has generally paid little attention to the topic. The slim literature that does exist either attempts to find patterns common to the revolutionary process in the capitals (here visible only among the Russian settler population), and thus to affirm the universality of the revolutionary process; or to understand revolutionary Turkestan through analogy with other borderlands and, not finding patterns deemed normative for the borderlands (for example, a strong assertion of nationalism), is content to stress their absence, taking this as proof of the backwardness of Central Asia. Whether they be William Chamberlin's “primitive Asiatic tribesmen,” or Richard Pierce's “natives” who “stood apart from the revolutionary events,” Central Asians are usually written out of the story of 1917.

Full textAbstract:
How does place structure the gendered division of household labor? Because people’s living spaces and lifestyles differ dramatically across urban, suburban, and rural areas, it follows that time spent on household chores may vary across places. In cities, for example, many households do not have vehicles or lawns, and housing units tend to be relatively small. Urban men’s and women’s time use therefore provides insight into how partners contribute to household chores when there is less structural demand for the types of tasks they typically do. We examine these dynamics using data on heterosexual married individuals from the American Time Use Survey combined with the Current Population Survey. We find that urban men spend relatively little time on male-typed chores, but they spend the same amount of time on female-typed chores as their suburban and rural counterparts. This pattern suggests that urban men do not “step up” their involvement in female-typed tasks even though they contribute little in the way of other housework. In contrast, urbanicity rarely predicts women’s time use, implying that women spend considerable time on household chores regardless of where they live. Implications for research on gender and housework are discussed.

Full textAbstract:
Organizations typically employ a division of labor between specialist creator roles and generalist business roles in a bid to orchestrate innovation. We seek to determine the extent to which individuals dividing the work across roles can also benefit from dividing their network. We argue that collaborating individuals benefit from connecting to the same groups but different individuals within those groups—an approach we label dual networking—rather than from a pure divide-and-conquer approach. To test this argument, we study a dual career-ladder setting in a large multinational in which R&D managers and technologists partner up in their quest for innovation. We find that collaborators who engage in dual networking attain an innovation performance advantage over those who connect to distinct groups. This advantage stems from the opportunity to engage in the dual interpretation of input the partners receive, as well as from dual influencing that helps them to gain momentum for their proposed innovations, and it leads to more effective elaboration and championing of their ideas. In demonstrating these effects, we advance understanding of how collaborators organize their networking activities to best achieve innovative outcomes.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractLusaka is a city originally designed and built for European residents, to meet European needs and comforts. In the colonial period the African residents were either domestic servants living within European households’ compounds or were other contracted wage-labourers who were confined to the areas of south-western Lusaka specifically allocated to them. Europeans preferred male domestic help; women and children living at close quarters were thought to be potentially disruptive and were therefore discouraged from moving into the towns. A gender division between town and country was created; so too were cultural assumptions about gender, housing and employment, assumptions still widely held today.Pressure to find waged employment in Zambia has increased, and as a result the population of Lusaka is growing rapidly and shelter is in increasingly short supply. The article argues that domestic employment is still the largest single segment of the urban wage-labouring population. The historically constructed cultural assumptions about gender and housing have led to differential access to housing for men and women. Now that more and more women are seeking waged employment, the article uses their relation to domestic employment as an instance through which to explore the wider position of women in Zambia, and to initiate, it is hoped, some gender awareness in Zambian housing policy.

Full textAbstract:
In order to increase the effectiveness of health-enhancing activities experts along with other factors point to the need for a rational building of various structural elements of the training, namely: training sessions, micro-, meso-, and macrocycles. The previous analysis the practical work of specialists in the field of health-enhancing activities shows that their main attention is directed to the study of the peculiarities of building complex training sessions with a successive solving of tasks. At the same time, complex training with parallel solving of tasks, for the most part, remains outside their attention.
The purpose of the article, research methods. The purpose of the study is to expand the theory of building of the complex training sessions with parallel solving of tasks.
Objectives of the study:
To analyze the theoretical approaches of building health-enhancing training
To develop general approaches to the building of health-enhancing training sessions with parallel solving of
Theoretical research methods such as: analysis and synthesis, deduction and induction, systematization were applied analyzing of the literature.
As a result of the analysis of literature it was find out:
The systematization inherent in the practice of sports is not applied in the theory of health-enhancing physical culture while planning a training sessions. Such systematization involves the division into selective training sessions and complex training sessions with successive and parallel solving of Although practical planning take place within these frameworks.
As a result of the analysis of literature it was find out:
The building of the complex training sessions with successive solving of tasks are more researched in the theory of the health-enhancing physical culture;
Health-enhancing training sessions with parallel solving of tasks can be based on the use of both exercises - with wide impact (dance movements, health-improving forms of martial arts, fitball, ) and exercises with limited impact (locomotion, strength exercises, gymnastic and flexibility exercises) with certain features methods of their application.

Full textAbstract:
In conducting fieldwork among perpetrators of state violence, it is a major methodological problem to gain access to competing factions within the research population. Ethnographers often succeed in finding access to at least one faction but this successful rapport might then immediately close off other factions that mistrust the ethnographer’s politics, intentions, or alleged sympathies. The ethnographic challenge is to find intermediaries or switchboard operators, as they are called in this article, who have established informal channels of communication between hostile factions. Switchboard operators have the following characteristics: discretion, neutrality, lack of formal power, disinterestedness, trustworthiness, and they act as a conduit of communication. This article describes how switchboard operators were located in Argentina, and how they played a crucial role in my fieldwork among a broad spectrum of military perpetrators who had terrorized the Argentine people between 1976 and 1983 with enforced disappearances and state repression.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractThis paper explores gendered impact of home-based work (HBW) on the capability to balance work with non-work in double-earner families with dependent children in two countries with distinct models of division of labour: Poland and Sweden. At first, I critically engage with the WLB conceptualization in HBW studies and try to address identified gaps. Driving from the theoretical concept of ‘burden of responsibilities’ and setting it in the capability approach, I propose to operationalize the capability to balance work with non-work as a latent construct, observed through two indicators of the burden of unpaid work responsibilities related to one’s engagement in paid work. To simultaneously measure this capability as a latent construct and the impact of HBW on this capability, I estimate a simple structural equation model for each country. The results show that men in both countries have higher capabilities to balance work with non-work than women, but the difference between genders is smaller in Sweden. I also find that HBW is related to lower capability to balance work with non-work for mothers in both countries and for fathers in Sweden only. The results of this study show that in a relatively gender equal society (Sweden) the negative impact of home based work on the capability to balance work with non-work affects both genders. On the contrary—in a more traditional society (Poland), men are able to ‘escape’ the trap of double burden of paid and unpaid work when working from home while women do not.

Full textAbstract:
The objective duality of the world, man and mankind should correspond to the pairing of Oriental studies and Western studies, however, science and pedagogy know only the first, or orientalistics. This monopoly was the result of the formation of the modern system of sciences in the field of the global domination of the West, representing the East as its opposite — the Non-West and / or interpreting interaction with it in value-asymmetric categories of culture and barbarism. The publication in 2006 of the Russian translation of E. Said's famous anti-Eastern book “Orientalism” and the scientific and educational reform of 2010-2013, provoked a discussion of Russian orientalists in the sense of the concepts of the East and the scientific status of Oriental studies as a complex and supra-branch discipline, which is either a syncretic underscience, or a synthetic superscience. Similar problems have been discussed in Russian Sinology since the 19th, since of all the highly developed cultures of the East, Chinese is the most syncretic, and the science about it is the most synthetic. In traditional China, there were no divisions customary for the West into philosophy and religion / theologians, philosophy and science, humanitarian and natural disciplines, fine and applied arts, etc. Russian Sinology, created at the beginning of the 18th century, corresponded to this specificity, simultaneously with “cutting a window to Europe” to address similar government requests. In the USSR, it was divided into classical Sinology, which was concentrated in Leningrad, with an emphasis on philology and wen-yan, and Soviet Sinology, which was concentrated in Moscow, with an emphasis on history, social studies, and bai-hua. As a result, it was possible to find the most complete reflection in accordance with the standards of classical sinology of the 6-volume encyclopedia “Spiritual Culture of China” (2006-2010). The results of this convergence were also recorded by the 10-volume “History of China from Ancient Times to the Beginning of the 21st Century”, which largely inherited Soviet Sinology (2013-2017). After analyzing these historical phenomena, the article describes the main achievements and problems of Russian Sinology over the past decade and the challenges it faces in the light of the modern rethinking of the scientific status of all oriental studies.

The European Commission or a national competition authority can jointly and severally impose a fine on infringing companies for the purpose of achieving compliance with the competition law. The division of the fine within the group is then regulated by the national law of the Member States. However, the legislation of the Member States is unclear and not uniform when it comes to how such a division is to be realized.
