Abstract:

Trivers and Willard (1973) argued that, in polygynous species, parents “in good condition” should bias investment toward sons, while parents “in poor condition” should bias investment toward daughters. Biographical evidence on men in the U.S. executive branch—including presidents, vice presidents, and cabinet secretaries—suggests they produced more sons than daughters in the first cohort (Presidents Washington through Garfield), but roughly equal numbers of sons and daughters in the second cohort (Presidents Arthur through Reagan). The same pattern holds for presidents' fathers and sons. Presidents' wills reflect the pattern again: men in the first cohort (Washington through Garfield) favored their sons, overall, slightly more than their daughters; for men in the second cohort (Arthur through Reagan), that bias disappears.

Abstract:

Presidential popularity is often considered a political resource. As a result, polls regularly address presidential approval. Using a content analysis of newspaper articles from the beginning of the Kennedy administration through the conclusion of the first George W. Bush administration, this study examines the relationship between first ladies and first children and presidential approval. Our findings suggest that presidents and first ladies are not necessarily evaluated independently of each other and that the media coverage of presidential children can be both political assets and liabilities to their fathers. Our study, therefore, establishes a foundation and need for future studies pertaining to individuals with close ties to the president.

Abstract:

Presidents are considered as caring and sensitive fathers of their nations whose words of condolences are usually needed in times of grief. One medium through which they express their condolences is through the delivery of tributes to eulogize the dead and sympathize with bereaved families. There is therefore the need to examine how presidents employ the faculties of language to eulogize the dead in their tributes. Premised on the transitivity framework postulated by Halliday and Matthiessen, the present study investigates the use of transitivity patterns in Ghanaian presidential tributes to unearth various experiences and also unveil the implicit relationships that exist between politicians and traditional rulers. The sample for the study is composed of four tributes delivered by Akuffo Addo, Mahama, Kufour and Rawlings to the late Queen Mother of the Ashanti Kingdom, Nana Afia Kobi Serwaa Apem II. The data were manually coded using the consensual coding strategy. The results indicate a preponderant use of relational processes to identify the unique qualities possessed by the late Queen Mother which further unveil the varied relationships between her and the presidents. Other process types such as material, mental, verbal and behavioural processes are used to construe the positive actions carried out by the late Queen Mother during her lifetime, activate the minds and emotions of mourners and sympathizers regarding the loss, posthumously project the late Queen Mother as a legend who needs to be modelled after and present a collective purgation of emotions of pain and agony. The study concludes that, despite the apolitical status of traditional rulers, they still have a latent but cordial relationship with politicians.

Abstract:

Ballard's novels return repeatedly to some scene of trauma to explore the perverse effects that derive from that moment. This essay focuses on three novels. Crash (1973) is most obsessively concerned with the erotics of violence and injury, while Empire of the Sun (1985) and Running Wild (1989) locate the traumatic events in childhood. What Ballard finds is a failure of the representatives of authority (fathers, kings, capital) to found a reliable world, leading children to cling to the often horrible satisfactions of some early experience. The results in Ballard's world include mixtures of masochism and advertising, middle-class terrorism and the fetishization of presidents, war and ecstasy. And what might once have appeared a wild aberration, a violent exercise of the death drive in the pursuit of enjoyment, becomes a way of life. (DAF)

Abstract:

The Chapter I contributed to the book The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump, called “Trump’s Daddy Issues—A Toxic Mix for America,” compared my relationship with my powerful father to Trump’s relationship with his and how it has effected our identity formation and behavior. The piece also exposed the difficulties I have had dealing with my Orthodox Jewish father’s support of Donald Trump’s presidency and the continued impact it has had on our already strained relationship. I offer how my father and I navigate the murky waters through which most fathers and sons, including the Trumps, must travel in the quest for each individual’s striving for identity. Just as there is a price to pay in my family as my father and I work through our unique issues, so too do the effects of the toxic relationship between Donald and his father. The difference is that with the Trumps, there is the risk of a much larger toll on innocent bystanders.

Abstract:

This paper explores the linguistic image of death (LID) of President Emil Hácha in selected Czech newspapers published in June and July 1945 (in Rudé právo and Svobodné slovo). The author verifies certain methods of cognitive linguistics studying the linguistic image of the world in articles thematically related to the passing of this representative of Czech national politics and his funeral. The following aspects are considered to be important: conceptual metaphors, the opposition of I versus the other, and the study of stereotypes and political ethics (conservative versus progressive: the model of the strict father morality versus the model of a caretaker). Before analysing president Hácha's LID, the author tries to place the president's death in a broader context, summarizing characteristic features of LID of imminent Czechoslovak presidents who governed the country in politically critical periods of its history: of T. G. Masaryk and E. Beneš.

Abstract:

I am honored and eager to serve as the 90th SEG president. As I undertake this great responsibility, I am fully aware that I am standing on the shoulders of those presidents who served before me — all of them the visionaries, entrepreneurs, and intellectual foundations of the applied-geophysics industry. Alan Kay, credited as the father of mobile computing, is often quoted as saying, “The best way to predict the future is to invent it.” As 2020–2021 SEG president, I commit to proactively support the difficult decisions necessary to maintain SEG’s legacy of excellence in applied geophysics and to invent an even more dynamic and relevant SEG for the future. Clearly, these times call for us all to be brave and proactive.

Abstract:

The presented contribution analyses – in the context of Jan Zouhar’s research scope and also on the background of the professional interests of the immortalized František Kautman (1927–2016) – the ‘philosophy’ of T. G. Masaryk’s (1850–1937) work. At the beginning, there are new publications on his alleged origin from the family of the Austro-Hungarian monarch, further their fictionalization, the investigation of his late sexual life and, last but not least, the flow of his juvenile correspondence with Zdenka Šemberová (1841–1912). For her, this communication was full of erotic and intellectual hopes which were not fulfilled and led to her lifelong loneliness and resignation, especially after the death of her father Alois Vojtěch Šembera (1807–1882), professor of Vienna Slavonic studies, one of the first opponents of the medieval authenticity of the legendary Czech Manuscripts, all of this on the background of the life of the university and Czech Vienna, where they both lived, and the adjacent Moravia. Masaryk, with his weak knowledge of standard Czech, Šemberová, at that time already a mature lady, record in their correspondence the course of their lives, their opinions, readings, and document their intellectual maturing. Their correspondence represents evidence of the lives of both: Masaryk was gradually becoming a scholar and mainly a politician, and understood their correspondence, from which Zdenka expected also an amorous fulfilment, as a mere practical exercise in stylistics and a confrontation of opinions. Their correspondence throws a new, not always favourable light on the youth of the future Czechoslovak president. Already there, the elementary features of his personality were taking their shapes.

Abstract:

The political leaders of Africa come in all sizes, shapes, and persuasions. There are liberal democratic heads of state and heads of government, presidents and prime ministers; elected democratic leaders who become wily autocrats; strong authoritarians who brook no opposition and respect few freedoms; military men ruling because their followers are well-armed; kleptocrats who govern so that they can steal from the state and its citizens; a few who profess strong support for the public interest; and many who serve clan, family, and narrow conceptions of national “interest.” There are few women. Ideology plays little part in the very different styles and mechanisms of governance that these political leaders display. But nearly all of them are transactional; hardly anyone today is transformational in the manner of several of Africa’s founding fathers, such as Nelson Mandela.

Abstract:

For most of the nineteenth century, George Washington was the visual icon of the nation, its metaphorical father figure and shaper of national character. Almost as soon as Americans started making daguerreotypes, they made daguerreotypes of George Washington. Though he died a full forty years before photography’s invention, the nation’s first president appeared in daguerreotypes of busts, painted portraits, and prints, ironically making daguerreotypes of Washington’s image some of the earliest presidential photographs. Washington was the ideal representative for daguerreotype portraiture, a kind of aesthetic touchstone for carrying the presidential image forward into the photographic age.

Abstract:

Resumen: Este trabajo analiza, por diversos medios, el proyecto de la capilla mortuoria con dos tumbas para el expresidente militar Carlos Delgado-Chalbaud y su padre. El encargo, no realizado, fue el único que, tras varias tentativas, pudo ejecutarse en Caracas, Venezuela. Le Corbusier archivó este proyecto como un “Monument”, y dentro de su trayectoria solo estuvo precedido por otro de carácter funerario dedicado al Mariscal F. Foch en la Porte Maillot de París y, posteriormente, diseñará su propia tumba en Cap Martin. Esto convierte al proyecto de Caracas, prácticamente desconocido, en un caso singular dentro de las tipologías funeraria y religiosa. La reconstrucción planteada se sustenta en la documentación conservada, el análisis histórico de las fuentes documentales, el empleo de la perspectiva clásica y las herramientas digitales para aportar precisiones y avances sobre estudios previos. En paralelo, la comparación con propuestas formales similares, enmarca el objeto de estudio dentro del legado del arquitecto. La pirámide ejemplifica la relación entre hombre y naturaleza, el “juego jugado por el hombre con los elementos cósmicos”, el papel de la forma, y de las trazas reguladoras en un período en el que su racionalismo purista se abre a interpretaciones más expresivas de la forma. En el fondo de esta investigación subyace el interés por comprender el proceso proyectual de Le Corbusier y su idea de arquitectura en torno a los años 50, al tiempo que se reconstruye un proyecto prácticamente borrado. Abstract: By several methods, this work analyzes the project for the mausoleum with two tombs for the former military president Carlos Delgado Chalbaud and his father. The unrealized commission was the only work that could have built in Caracas, Venezuela. Le Corbusier archive this project categorized as a “Monument” and in his career, it was only preceded by another funerary project dedicated to Mariscal F. Foch located in Porte Maillot in Paris, France. Only there was another funeral project: his own grave at Cap Martin. This makes this virtually unknown project in Caracas, a singular case framed within the funeral and religious categories. The proposed reconstruction is based on the preserved documentation, historical analysis of various documentary sources, the use of classical perspective and digital tools to provide clarifications and progress on previous studies. Parallel, comparisons with similar previous and subsequent formal proposals frames the object of study in its entire legacy. The pyramid illustrates the relationship between man and nature “the game played by the man with the cosmic elements”, in a period in which his purist rationalism opens to a more expressive performances in form. In the background of this research lays an interest in understanding the design process of Le Corbusier and his idea of architecture around the 50’s, while a virtually erased project is restored.
