Abstract:
AbstractMegasthenes was an eyewitness to the reign of Chandragupta Maurya, maker of the first India-wide empire (from ca. 321 BCE). The army with which he made that empire depended largely upon the supply of men, horses, elephants, and oxen, a sector which may be called military livestock. Megasthenes’ account of this large sector of government expense and the policies under which it operated gives important testimony about the causes of Chandragupta's success, namely the maintenance of a royal monopoly of horses, elephants, and arms, payment of the soldiers in peacetime and war, the demilitar

Abstract:
Human fatalities caused by wild elephant attacks in India are increasing and are more common in areas close to elephant habitats. Victims are villagers who reside in settlements close to forest reserves. Although they are aware of the presence of elephants in their neighbourhood, they often enter forests to feed cattle or collect firewood. Here, we report three cases of adult males from villages near forests who were attacked by wild elephants. These cases are rather uncommon when compared to other types of cases autopsied at our centre, as during the attack, all three were alone and in remote

Abstract:
Introduction. The article is devoted to the subject of the colonial history of Africa, little-discussed in Russian historiography, – the attempt of the Belgians in the Congo to use elephants in the development of hard-to-reach areas, following the example of the British in India. For this purpose, a special elephant domestication station was founded at the end of the 19th century. Materials and Methods. The source base for the study was L. Rankin's report on the expedition to the Congo in 1879-80, materials published in the Bulletin Agricole du Congo Belge in the 1910s (including report of the

Frans Jansz van der Heiden (1638–81), a Dutch East India Company sailor, accompanied the expedition of Mir Jumla to Assam (1662–63) during the reign of sixth Mughal emperor Aurangzeb (1658–1707) and Süa-taam-laa (1648–63), king of the Ahom kingdom in Assam. Heiden was the eyewitness of the war, history, topography and culture of then Assam. Many historians mentioned that it was W. Glanius who came along with Mir Jumla. But by evidence, W. Glanius was the English translator of the travel account authored by Heiden who was actually a conscripted sailor and accompanied Mir Jumla’s expedition to A

This paper would like to analyse two films, The Elephant Man (David Lynch, 1981) and Blow up (Michelangelo Antonioni, 1966) and one classic myth, Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, through the very poignant figure of the voyeur. We will investigate this observer of the unnamable focusing on two characters, two eyewitnesses: the scientist who discovers John Merrick and the photographer who becomes obsessed with finding a corpse in an amplified picture. Both these voyeurs seem to be in search of the bewitching and sublime darkness that lies within, a search that in a way is inaugurated by the Promethe

Introduction: Our current obsession with the lives of others “Biography—that is to say, our creative and non-fictional output devoted to recording and interpreting real lives—has enjoyed an extraordinary renaissance in recent years,” writes Nigel Hamilton in Biography: A Brief History (1). Ian Donaldson agrees that biography is back in fashion: “Once neglected within the academy and relegated to the dustier recesses of public bookstores, biography has made a notable return over recent years, emerging, somewhat surprisingly, as a new cultural phenomenon, and a new academic adventure” (23).

A comprehensive guide to cryptozoology—the quest to identify animals that have not been officially catalogued by science and to place these unknown animals into their proper zoological categories. In this fascinating two-volume encyclopedia, author George M. Eberhart provides a comprehensive catalog of nearly 1,000 cryptids—unknown animals usually reported through eyewitness accounts and not yet described by science. Cryptids are the stuff of folklore, hoaxes, and genuine scientific breakthroughs. There are 400 now-classified cryptids once considered either extinct or pure fantasy. The cryptoz
