Abstract:
The idea that the borders between different natural species can be easily bridged by metamorphoses was central to the ancient worldview. Humans were believed to be able to undress their human appearance and to transform into any beast whichever, or, conversely, animals were believed to appear as human beings. This belief permeated daily life and ritual practice. The notion of metamorphosis was also central to ancient metaphysics: it affected ideas regarding creation and maintenance of the cosmos, as well as birth and death of living beings. This article demonstrates that developmental psychology can explain both the universal existence of this belief in premodern societies and its disappearance in modern societies. People staying on the preoperational stage cannot avoid believing in metamorphosis because it is an inevitable part of the cognitive patterns of this stage. People staying on the concrete and formal operational stages are in fact no more able to share these ideas because the notion of the invariance of natural kinds is an inevitable part of higher psychological stages. The article points to the fundamental importance of developmental psychology for ethnological research, especially for the study of ancient worldview.

Abstract:
Language and flesh create each other. here you will find three stories, from three ongoing projects, that are each in some way about the metamorphosis between word and body. Each story is an example of my use of fiction writing as a scholarly tool: for understanding a map as a material object, for weaving lives from textual fragments, and for making a little world with little gods as a way of exploring a work of theory. Fiction, here, is an apparatus for paying new kinds of attention, as well as a vehicle for creating stories, worlds, and selves to give to others. Some persistent concerns in my fiction writing have deeply influenced how I pay attention to the documents I work with in my research: concerns with materiality and history, with the legibility of bodies, with fragmentariness and the transformative power of desire, with the nature of selves and flesh as constantly in the process of becoming, with voicing and with fiction as technologies of conversion. (I did not understand, before writing “The Gesture of Smoking a Pipe,” which you'll read below, that there was an important link in Vilém Flusser's work between physical gesture, selfhood, and the calling down of—and metamorphosis of selves into—gods. Now, the connection between movement, identity, and conversion is becoming central to my work as a historian.) Imagining materiality and metamorphoses this way—and practicing the metamorphosis and conversion of documents—has pointed me toward the ways that materiality and material experience emerge out of relations and relationships and the ways that the kind of orientations that relate bodies in space and time leave traces in our documents.

Abstract:
Many have written of imperial qualities perceived or publicized, particularly of those attached to the emperor Constantine. Although only a tediously exhaustive volume could do justice to the whole subject, and any essay which does not embrace the whole runs the risk of being faulted for some omission or other, one may yet justify a particular concern. The subject of the present paper is the tension between form and function, which appears nowhere so readily as in a series of similar literary exercises spanning a number of years, and the demonstration that form will always yield to practical necessity. For example, the rise, fall, and rehabilitation of Maximian through seven of the Panegyrici Latini clearly illustrates the many functions of a standard form. Constantine's is a more complicated case which involves two kinds of form and a certain amount of Augustan posturing.

Abstract:
In this article, I explore the unique affordances of narrative and performance in creating opportunities to linger with Henrietta Lacks. I first unpack the complexity of the story, as we know it, and tease out some of the significant themes. I focus on the metamorphic nature of Henrietta’s narrative and discuss her life, death, extinction and ressurection situated in racism. Without her knowledge, Henrietta Lacks became a research subject. Scientists erased her identity, wishing to conceal their own improprieties in taking her cells without permission. Although her identity was erased, Henrietta’s cells gained immortality before her physical death, and her story is now reiterated in the work of Skloot and other literature, as though the narrative performed a kind of resurrection. I discuss how cell science thrived in part through leveraging different kinds of erasure and resurrection. Then, drawing on my experiences as an educator exploring Lack’s story with grade 9 biology students, I present a theatrical play that weaves together students’ retelling of the story. I hope this article provides opportunities to linger and contemplate the power of science and its role in metamorphic nature-cultures.

Abstract:
The metamorphosis of Warsaw’s Central Station and its underground passages is the story of Poland’s system transformation, of the process of adapting Poland’s economy to the world economy, to the free market model, and of strategies for managing the public space in the face of general commercialization and privatization. Finally, it is the story of the results of these processes for social life. The author, using the category of invisibility, observes the processes and social phenomena that were either brought to the fore or marginalized, or eliminated, from social life during the aesthetic transformation of the station and its underground passages. She shows that ordinarily the ostensible modernization of a structure is in reality a manifestation of the economic and social gentrification of that part of the city. At the same time, seeing the domination of international chains and the short life span of local businesses, and analyzing the division of the underground commercial space between global and local brands, she concludes that it symbolizes the consolidation of the peripheral position of Polish ‘post-transformation’ businesses in regard to global businesses.

Abstract:
Protochordate reproduction and development are influenced by many kinds of environmental factors. For example, spawning, sexual and asexual reproduction, larval behaviour, and life-cycle transitions (metamorphosis) are key processes known to be affected by environmental factors. This review must be restricted primarily to only one group of protochordates, the ascidians or "sea squirts", because information on the reproductive ecology of hemichordates and cephalochordates is limited to only a few studies. Topics discussed in the present review include (i) environmental factors that regulate larval settlement, (ii) how pelagic embryos avoid damage to DNA caused by UV radiation, (iii) the effect of water temperature and food availability on sexual reproduction in colonial ascidians, (iv) environmental regulation of asexual budding, (v) environmental regulation of metamorphosis, and (vi) the possible role of the environment in the evolution of direct-developing ascidians. A novel role for HSP90 and nitric oxide signaling in the integration of environmental factors with cell signaling pathways in ascidians is discussed near the end of this review. Throughout this review, the multiple roles of environmental stress on ascidian reproduction and development are emphasized.

Abstract:
There are a lot of the dynamic meanings - important messages for the west civilization - in the antique tradition, deeply rooted in every medium. The authors of this text are showing us a lot of problems, connected with the ontological statue of text, context and relations among (not only between) sender and receiver, during the creating antique meanings in the different kinds of the communication. To be able to describe contemporary metamorphosis of the antique tradition they (the authors) are presenting us the most important changes in the west cultural reading - „through" the Internet - the antique heritage.

Abstract:
Ovid’s remarkable and endlessly fascinating Metamorphoses is one of the best known and most popular works of classical literature, and perhaps the most influential of all on later European literature and culture. Loved for its vast repository of mythic material as well as its sophisticated manipulation of story-telling, the poem can be appreciated on many different levels and by audiences of very different backgrounds and educational experiences, whether it is for the tale of Pyramus and Thisbe or the endless but endlessly fascinating debate over the generic status of this epic which breaks all the rules and yet somehow must be included in any canon of Roman epics. The key to metamorphosis can be said to be not just transformation but also transgression, an especially significant issue in today’s culture and society. The actuality of Ovid’s Metamorphoses thus is remarkably strong, and that shows in the new scholarly approaches to the work. This anthology presents a number of recent developments, which, while representing different kinds of approach, explore the effects of transformation and transgression of borders in new ways. The main three aspects are transformations into the Metamorphoses (from what did the mythic narratives evolve), transformations in the Metamorphoses –(what new understandings of the dynamic of metamorphosis can be achieved), and how were the Metamorphoses transformed in later times, acquiring new meanings. So, transformation is explored as a form of transgression of states, or even the transcendence of mythic narrative.

Abstract:
Mary Zimmerman’s dramatic adaptation of the Metamorphoses (1998) follows the staging of the Odyssey and represents a further instance of her ongoing engagement with the classical world. By filtering the Ovidian myths through a network of allusions (to Rilke, Jung, and Freud, among others) she reminds her audiences of the consolidation of classical myth within the Western tradition. At the same time she uses the play to meditate upon issues such as unbridled greed and capitalism, anorexia, and emotionally damaged ‘rich kids’. Her play is also underpinned by a profound sense of loss and grief. The innate sorrow of the play was heightened still further when audiences came to watch it after the 9/11 attacks, and their response to the play was informed by the horrors and deaths that they had experienced within their own communities.

Abstract:
The influence of the Metamorphoses on Western culture is of such magnitude that the preceding tradition is at risk of vanishing from sight. Nonetheless, Ovid’s poem obviously stems from the Greek tradition. On many points, Ovid’s sources have been mapped and precursors pointed out. This chapter’s exposé turns the perspective in a most illuminating way: instead of looking for similarities, it uses the conclusions of previous research to define more closely what actually makes Ovid different from his precursors. In this way, the chapter is able to define a number of instances where Ovid on the one hand utilizes tradition, but on the other hand also transforms it and approaches metamorphosis in new ways. The instances the chapter maps span a wide register: state of origin and destination of the transformation, kinds, causes, and reversibility of metamorphosis, aetiological and genealogical functions, issues of continuity and communication, et cetera. Applying this perspective, the chapter paves the way for a number of new, future studies.

Abstract:
Ovid often displays a remarkable attention to the psychology of female actors, but the question is to what extent this attention can be regarded as truly sympathetic and empathetic, and to what extent it is objectifying. Rather than treating this question in one or a few passages, this chapter approaches the problem systematically. The chapter explores the rules which seem to apply to gender through transformation, including those instances that are actually metamorphosis of gender. Thus, not only a well-known example like Teiresias but a number of others are summoned to detail how Ovid does in a variety of ways sensitively represent female subjectivity—but only in negative contexts. Metamorphosis of gender goes almost exclusively in one direction. The chapter suggests the possibility of holding in tension both sympathy and objectification, arguing that there is a disproportionate emphasis on women’s (as opposed to men’s) experience of metamorphosis and that this is combined with the power relations which make certain kinds of metamorphosis a negatively feminizing process.

Abstract:
This paper shows numerical analysis on dynamic deployment behaviors of membrane structure models embedding inflatable tubes. To treat their nonlinearity, one kind of nonlinear elasto-dynamic analysis methods characterized by modified stiffness matrix is applied. Analyzed models were proposed for future membrane structure systems inspired by insects' metamorphoses. In this paper, we focus on a balance between two kinds of deployment forces: centrifugal forces due to rotation of a central satellite and extension forces due to inflation of embedded tubes. We present numerical results of deployment behaviors of rectangular and hexagonal membrane models. Details of the numerical method are also discussed. Numerical results of the rectangular membrane model provide that there exist minimum values of maximum strain energy of membrane elements at appropriate gas filling time for each rotation rate. This means that we could control deployment behaviors by regulation of inflation rate of embedded tubes and rotation rate of a central satellite bus. Numerical results of the hexagonal membrane model provide that the case of deployment with gas injection shows more smooth deployment behavior without local deformation. In the case of deployment without gas injection there appears to be local deformation with high strain energy density.
