Full textAbstract:
This article intends to unpack how art education motivates students for a creative educational practice in immersive learning, following the author’s research using books to explore The Book Experience as a Place of Epistemological Reflection in Art Education. Questions as to how book making can be understood as a tool for teaching and learning, as a mediator and as a collaborative piece of producing knowledge, were raised during the process of making collective books, along with reflection on author’s articles. Feedbacks reveal a firm evidence of learning through studio practice based pedagogies as spaces of learning.

Full textAbstract:
When Horatio tells Hamlet, “I knew you must be edified by the margent ere you had done” (V.ii. 156-57), we find ourselves amused and bemused trying to imagine what conceiveable edification could be gleaned from a marginal gloss on the courtly gabble of Osric's invitation to the duel. Yet while Horatio was having his little joke about edifying margents, Renaissance commentators, scholarly annotators, translators, editors, printers, and authors of all kinds were busily constructing elaborate scaffolds of printed marginalia around texts both ancient and modern, ranging from Holy Writ to handbooks for New World entrepreneurs and manuals on the courtly art of self-defense. The ostensible and frequently advertised purpose of this marginal material was to make texts more accessible to the “general reader,” to provide the non-specialist working on a difficult text a place to stand that was grounded on more familiar books, ideas, and experience.

Full textAbstract:
This article highlights the significance of books in the personal library of Enoch Robert Gibbon Salisbury (1819–90), now the Salisbury Library at Cardiff University's Special Collections and Archives. The article outlines the research potential of the library. It considers examples of marginalia in the collection and what these reveal about how books were read and consumed. Salisbury's personal inscriptions provide a unique and untapped insight that goes beyond the book, encompassing the histories of reading and the growth of printing in Wales, as well as the motivations and mind-set of an astute collector. A study of these books' marginalia, authors' corrections and the revealing notes and jottings of their collector has major implications for the history of 'book culture', printing and the art of collecting in Wales.

Full textAbstract:
This paper develops and estimates an equilibrium model where heterogeneous firms can exploit two margins of informality: (i) not register their business, the extensive margin; and (ii) hire workers “off the books,” the intensive margin. The model encompasses the main competing frameworks for understanding informality and provides a natural setting to infer their empirical relevance. The counterfactual analysis shows that once the intensive margin is accounted for, firm and labor informality need not move in the same direction as a result of policy changes. Lower informality can be, but is not necessarily associated with higher output, TFP, or welfare. (JEL D22, E26, H26, J46, O14, O17)

Full textAbstract:
What Is International Youth Literature? Why Does It Matter?International youth literature—translated books and English-language imports first published outside of the United States—can be the missing link in diversifying collections. Our diversity discussions tend to focus on multicultural literature that is originally published in the United States. At first glance diverse books from here and abroad can seem indistinguishable since they may have a similar focus or setting—that is, by race, ethnicity, ability, socioeconomic status, etc.—so it is not surprising that international books are often mistaken for multicultural books. Sometimes only a close look will reveal that a book has been translated or was first published in English abroad. Reading international youth literature moves us to the margins for a change and is an opportunity to see what the rest of the world thinks. By paying attention to this literature, we broaden our perspectives and validate international voices.

This research is a literature study on margins and marketing efficiency. This study aims to analyze the margins and marketing efficiency of Bali cattle post covid-19 pandemic. The research method used in this study is a qualitative descriptive method. The type of data used in this study is qualitative data, which is categorized into two types, namely primary data and secondary data. Sources of data are obtained through library research techniques (library study) which refers to sources available both online and offline such as scientific journals, books, and news sourced from trusted sources. The results of the study concluded that based on the marketing margin, farmer's share, and the efficiency of the marketing channel pattern that had been carried out, it was concluded that the Bali cattle marketing system was efficient. This can happen because it is influenced by several factors, namely the general condition of Bali cattle business actors.

Full textAbstract:
The article considers the issue of the researcher's perception of the scanned image of paper sheets: both separate and as part of a book. The importance and timeliness of work on obtaining digital copies of books and sheets with text / photographs was emphasized. The problem is the authenticity of their depiction of a physical object. The methods of scanning and visual features of the image on an electronic screen are characterized, depending on whether the work is carried out to scan a paper sheet in its entirety or minus the margins and edges of the sheet. Currently, there are no technologies for transferring the texture of a paper sheet when scanning, which leads to an erroneous solution to this problem by increasing the clarity of scanning. The greatest authenticity of the image of a physical object can be achieved by scanning the entire sheet, without deliberately separating the margins and edges of the sheet.

Literary critique in the margins. The e-book project in upsala nya tidning and the digitization of literary criticism
 This article examines the journalistic project ”Kulturjournalistik ända ut i marginalerna” in Upsala Nya Tidning 2012–2013 in which e-books with critics’ annotations were published, and discusses it as an example of digital literary criticism. The project was awarded for its renewal of literary criticism. In the article, I explore the characteristics for the critique in the project and the significance of the medium by analyzing two of the books published with marginalia: the novel Dagar i tystnadens historia by Merethe Lindström with annotations by Therese Eriksson, and the short story Nattsidan [Night-Side] by Joyce Carol Oates with annotations from both a critic, Anna Ehn, and from twelve newspaper-readers. I show how the marginalia differs in the two books but also how it in both cases is more inspired by the marginalia in printed books than by the possibilities raised by digital media. Rather than using the advantages of electronic media, the marginalia of the e-books in the project remediates older reading habits and the marginalia of the 18th and early 19th century. The importance of the digitalization in this case is therefore rather the distribution form of the books and the inclusion of the readers as critics.

Gather a group of economists together and ask what most concerns them, and a wide variety of topics would soon emerge: slowing economic growth in the rich nations, the inability of many poor nations to converge toward the rich, rising income and wealth inequality, the increasing dominance of superstar firms, growing profit margins and the decline in labor's income share, globalization and the human costs of outsourcing, deaths of despair, and the threat of climate change. Decade after decade, numerous books have been written about each of these issues. But here we have in one compact package a blockbuster book that deals with all of them.

For centuries, scholarship in the western tradition has centred on printed books as the defining medium by which it expresses and preserves knowledge. Ask in the rare-books library for a source of scholarly understanding about Stonehenge which is a full five centuries old, Caxton’s Chronicle of England of 1482, and you find a printed volume which as a physical object astonishingly resembles a book about Stonehenge of 1982 or of 1998 — in its alphabet of standardized letters adapted from hand-written forms, in its black ink on folded paper, in its binding, in the size, the shape and the number of pages, in the type-size, the line spacing and the margins to the page, in the divisions by paragraphs and chapters, in the ordering, indexing and conventions of its contents. Already old in the 15th century — for these conventions derived from the habits of the copied manuscripts — that standard format shapes scholarly knowledge to this day.

Let's Cut to the Chase: African American Scholars Occupy the Margins of this Expansive Realm Known as Digital Humanities. Do well-intentioned people want more diversity in DH? Sure, they do. Do black folks participate in DH? Of course, we do. But we've witnessed far too many DH panels with no African American participants or with only one. We've paid close attention to where the major funding for DH goes. Or, we've carefully taken note of who the authors of DH-related articles, books, and bibliographies are. We've studied these things closely enough to realize who resides in prime DH real estate and who doesn't. We could speak defiantly about our marginal status the way Toni Morrison once did when she quipped, “I'm gonna stay out here on the margin, and let the center look for me” (87). Yaasss!At the same time, though, it's worth thinking about some of the reasons why African American scholars dwell on the margins of the DH field. The processes by which we pursue graduate study and become participants in the field of African American literary studies account for why we are slow or reluctant to embrace DH. There's also the matter of segregation—our persistent exclusion from projects and opportunities that are ostensibly open to all but invariably involve primarily white scholars. Immersion in the field of African American literary studies and conversations with senior and emergent scholars reveal some of the reasons why we stand so far from the center of the DH community.

Full textAbstract:
Well-written reviews counteract the inertia that can afflict any field, given the pressures on the professorate and the limited resources of academic publishing houses. Between the demands of teaching, publication, production, and university service many theatre professors struggle to keep up with the literature related to their own research interests, let alone read broadly in the field. In such a context, no book—not even an excellent book—is assured an audience. Books that are not easily categorized, that do not fit comfortably in a given discipline, or that address underresearched topics are even less likely to reach a broad audience (and “broad” in terms of academic publishing is clearly a relative term). Reviews create audiences for books that might otherwise sit unnoticed in the margins of a field. Every review implicitly charts important directions for the field; reviews identify central conversations in the academy and indicate how theatre studies can engage these conversations. Reviews help us to be eclectic readers, and we must be such readers if we hope to speak beyond the circle that shares our individual research interests. It is in the spirit of eclecticism that Theatre Survey has instituted the column “What Are You Reading?” asking innovative scholars to share and reflect on the texts that feed their thinking. It is in the same spirit that Theatre Survey reviews a broad spectrum of the books received and invites both junior and senior scholars to propose reviews of books that the journal has not received but that should come to the attention of scholars of theatre and performance studies. Reviews help shape the field. Theatre Survey looks for reviews that cultivate new performance-centered historiographic study, reflecting a diverse range of methodological and critical perspectives.

This article utilizes digital humanities social network analysis to examine Native women’s roles in overlapping familial and economic social ties revealed in two early Dutch account books. Taken individually these records are difficult to fit into broader analyses; many of the individual Native people who appear in early account books are recorded only once or at most a handful of times and rarely appear in other documentary sources. The contrasting structures of two contemporary Iroquois and Munsee social networks reconstructed from these account books illustrates the extent of colonial views into indigenous social life and colonial perceptions of indigenous women within their communities. Where Iroquois women were visible in these networks as bridges between indigenous kin groups, Munsee women were perceived as pushed to the margins of their own kinship networks, illustrating the process of erasure in the settler colonial archive.

Sylvia Walby is a sociologist who has written extensively on gender inequality, patriarchy and feminism in, for example, books such as Theorizing Patriarchy (1990), Patriarchy at Work (1986), Gender Segregation at Work (1989), Out of the Margins (1991), Gender Transformations (1997) and The Future of Feminism (2011). She was a founder of the Feminist Studies Association and the European Sociological Association. Her work theorising social change includes books such as European Societies (1999), Contemporary British Society (2000), Globalization and Inequalities (2009) and the recent book Crisis (2015). In recent years much of her work has been on violence, including The Concept and Measurement of Violence against Women and Men (2017) and work for the UN on violence against women. She is Professor of Sociology and Director of the Violence and Society Centre at City, University of London, UK, and UNESCO Chair in Building Peaceful Societies through Research on Gender Equality. In this interview Sylvia Walby talks to Jo Littler about gender inequality; why feminism is better understood as a project than as an identity; how gender dynamics were sidelined during Covid; ways to understand crises; and what we mean by 'violence'.

Hazrat Makhdoom Mohammad Hashim Thattavi was an internationally renowned great scholar, narrator and capable of speech poet of Sindh. His publications are in Arabic, Persian, and Sindhi languages. He authored books on many Islamic topics, including the Qur'an, tafseer, seerat, hadith, jurisprudence, rules, and beliefs. The number of books is estimated by some researchers to be 300 and some to be higher than 150. Al-Wasiyat-ul-Hashimia also counts in his publications. The thesis writer has commented on this book by Hazrat Thatvi in his thesis and it has been tried to write the style with full research which Hazrat Thattavi has adopted in this book which is a knowledge benefit as well as a scholarly work.The writer has summarized the thesis in the beginning, and then does some work on the biography of Hazrat Thattavi, and later writes under the title of study of the book the style which Hazrat Thattavi has adopted in this book, and tried to prove through his research that the style of writing of Hazrat Thattavi was very unique, and as a writer he has chosen very good words, but the style is such that every man can easily understand his text. Some of the texts as a sample are mentioned in this thesis, then Ideas and subordinates of Hazrat are written under the title of the Theology Analysis, and also discussed the words and phrases, and finally the researcher has edited the result which he reached after his research efforts as well as discussed the margins and the source and references separately.

Full textAbstract:
Mojisola Adebayo and Valerie Mason-John are two distinctive voices in contemporary writing and performance, representing an Afro-Queer diasporic heritage through the specific experience of being black, British, and lesbian. Creating continuities from contorted or erased histories (personal, social, and cultural), their drama demonstrates both Afro-centric and European theatrical influences, which in Mason-John's case is further consolidated in her polemic, poetry, and prose. Like Britain's most innovative and prominent contemporary black woman dramatist, debbie tucker green, they reach beyond local or national identity politics to represent universal themes and to centralize black women's experiences. With subject matter that includes royal families, the care system, racial cross-dressing, and global ecology, Adebayo and Mason-John have individually forged a unique aesthetic and perspective in work which links environmental degradation with social disenfranchisement and travels to the heart of whiteness along black-affirming imaginative routes. Deirdre Osborne is a lecturer in drama at Goldsmiths College, University of London, and has published essays on the work of black British dramatists and poets, including Kwame Kwei-Armah, Dona Daley, debbie tucker green, Lennie James, Lemn Sissay, SuAndi, and Roy Williams. She is the editor of Hidden Gems (London: Oberon Books, 2008), a collection of plays by black British dramatists.

Full textAbstract:
The paper focuses on the episode of the formation of Ivan Franko’s library. Franko was actively interested in books all his life, and his collection was a mobile organism: he followed the new editions, ordered catalogs from everywhere, and generously shared his books. The unique library has survived to this day as part of the writer’s archival collection. Both modern editions and old prints (which are rather numerous) retain evidence of their movements. Gift inscriptions, bookplates, stamps of institutions and organizations, notes and marks on the margins — all these pieces of evidence complement the information about Franko’s circle of communication and creative interests, being an important source for studying his biography. It is impossible to completely reconstruct the history of acquiring the books that form this memorial collection, but a number of facts give grounds for some conclusions on this issue. Franko’s unexpected visit to Kyiv in 1909 is described in many memoirs, but only D. Doroshenko, who accompanied the writer to the bookstores, briefly told what publications his companion was interested in, and which booksellers he met, naming several particular places they visited. The traces of these locations in the books from the collection may serve as proof that the writer brought them from his trip. Now working with Franko’s personal library, the author of the paper is trying to find out which books from Kyiv enriched Franko’s collection. The testimonies by D. Doroshenko, bookplates, ownership inscriptions and stamps, numbers of books assigned by the owner of the library, and other data were taken into account. Many editions of this collection have stamps or stickers of booksellers from different cities and countries, including those that Franko never visited. The writer’s archive also contains book advertisements and catalogs, as well as his correspondence with publishers and second-hand booksellers. Thus, generally linking the collection of Ivan Franko’s library to his travels proves to be not a very productive task.

Full textAbstract:
Minute books (pinkas) constitute one of the most valuable sources for studying the history of the Jewish communal institutions up to the 20th century. They comprise rich and diverse data on the everyday activities of the Jewish people. In the academic language, the word “pinkas” is applied not only to the communal minute books and minute books of the communal bodies but also to private minute books. The article deals with the development of this category of sources which evolved from private minute books dating back to at least the 11th century to the communal ones as well as the minute books of the communal bodies based on the dozen manuscript examples. These are mostly of European origin, however, with a few Eastern additions. This evolution process becomes visible as a result of the analysis of the manuscripts’ internal structure and composition. Special attention is paid to the techniques used to enforce this structure on codicological and paleographic levels. The data at hand suggest that at the beginning of the Modern period some of the minute books were shifted from private to the public domain. This was a response to the demand from the rapidly evolving communal institutions. To suit the widened audience of varying backgrounds the communal minute books compared to those for private use adopted a more uniform structure as well as with a set of “navigation” or referencing tools, such as captions written on margins. The early modern Italian communal minute books tend to be the most structured ones.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Elizabeth Barrett Browning’s imperfect rhymes, criticized since the nineteenth century, strangely resemble her blank verse. This essay argues that her experiments in poetic form should be viewed in relation to her reading and writing of literary history, particularly her intellectual engagement with the work of Henry Hallam. Barrett Browning’s remarks in the margins of Hallam’s books and in a historiographical essay of her own reveal a poet thinking about her craft in the context of a transnational history of poetry. Barrett Browning’s idiosyncratic prosody becomes another means of writing literary history.

Full textAbstract:
Incunabula are considered a particularly important part of the documentary heritage. 520 incunabula are preserved in eight different Lithuanian memory institutions. The engagement of Lithuanian libraries in the development of the international database of incunabula provenances, Material Evidence in Incunabula (MEI: https://data.cerl.org/mei/_search), intensified research on incunabulistics, as it led to a closer examination of the marks of the former owners. The article presents the latest data on the distribution of incunabula in different Lithuanian memory institutions, as well as analyzes various book marks that were not recorded in Nojus Feigelmanas’ catalog of Lithuanian incunabula or was revised and supplemented, and evaluates their significance in the printed book culture of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. The analysis is performed using the provenance method, however is not limited to property marks, but also includes margins – marks left by a reader on the pages of books, and other marks not related to property or reading, providing significant information on book history, culture and peculiarities of reading at that time.
 In the 15th century, there were no printing houses in the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, so the main spread of books was by trade. The entries with prices identified in the incunabula reveal a relatively early time of purchase of the incunabula and testify that the books in the 16th-17th centuries were an expensive commodity. They usually mention groschen, the common currency in the territory of Lithuania-Poland, less often – florins or ducats. In this case, the large variety of prices does not allow to draw more specific conclusions on the prices of incunabula in the relevant period, but these data as a source of book history will serve in general when studying the value of the old books and the circumstances of their acquisition. Purchase records usually also provide information about a former owner of a book. The article focuses more on lesser-known owners on whom new information has been found or existing data have been updated, attention is also paid to female donators. The article also discusses the records left by the incunabula rubricators, which allows to determine the period of the book entry into the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, as well as to look at them as one of the first readers.
 Various inscriptions left by anonymous owners require the most effort. Entries of the 15th-16th centuries, mostly in Latin, many of which are abstracts of an existing book or notes on it, additions to the text, are still awaiting detailed reading and research. Identified Lithuanian words will be a valuable source of the language history for researchers of the old Lithuanian language. Various marginalia – reviews on a book, notes from everyday life, counting the year of the book, as well as graffiti, different drawings that can be seen as feather attempts, amateur illustrations, caricatures or even as an expression of reading boredom, will be an important material to describe a reader’s relationship to the book at the time, for which the incunabula, like books of other ages, were not only the object of study or research, but also a kind of notebook for important thoughts, synopses, everyday details.

The dominant forces, the torchbearers of civilizations in America, have always silenced marginal voices.Thereligious books have always been the instrumental foundationsfor the whites to retaindominance across the world. Ruthlesswhites like the Aryansdefeated the nativesand enslaved them in their trap. They enforced slavery and imbibed the superstitious notions and outdated religious rituals that never allowed the oppressed to question its authorityon the base of reason and science. In the twentieth century, the emergence of revolutions and the movements for the human rights of the African Americans forced the imperialists to accept democratic values, implement, and administer them in the countries. Under the influence of the dominant oppressive forces, thewhiteskept the downtrodden and oppressed people ignorant about it. The pains and problems of the people did not end with the abolition of slavery and untouchability in both the countries but continuedhorribly in racist, classist, and sexist society. The vintages of slavery resulted from the race and caste are still on display in the slums.The humble dwellers in the slumsstruggle never ending problems caused by the elite dominated industrialism and capitalism in the metropolitan citieswhere there is hardly any room and scope for their growth and emancipation.

Full textAbstract:
With the occurrence pandemic of Coronavirus disease (COVID-19), the World Health Organization and health officials in all countries of the world were forced to comply with quarantine conditions. On the one hand, the stress of this dangerous viral disease, and other hand, staying home for an indefinite period of time does not have pleasant consequences. The announcement of an increase in the number of patients with the disease and the death toll also adds to the emotional excitement. Therefore, to prevent mental and psychological diseases as well as other social harms, people can make it easier and more tolerable of quarantine conditions and issues on the margins of illness, by studying and reading books. Research has shown that studying, especially reading books plays an important role in preventing diseases such as depression and stress. It is difficult to predict when this tragedy will end. But more importantly, the evidence suggests there is a possibility that such cases will be repeated.

This is the newest release in ABC-CLIO’s Documents Decoded series, a range of works devoted to collecting noteworthy primary resources. The subjects covered in the series are wide-ranging and include Women’s Rights, Presidential Power, the Abolitionist Movement, and the Death Penalty. What makes Documents Decoded books stand out among the plethora of primary resource collections available is that expert commentary and analysis are presented literally alongside the text of seminal primary resources. That is, scholarly observation and historical background annotations are actually printed in the margins of the primary resource text. This is a unique approach that seems more accessible and user-friendly than traditional endnotes, footnotes, or isolated explanations.

ABSTRACT: In this study I propose that the floral motifs in the margins of the Newberry Library Book of Hours ms. 52, beyond their function as mere ornamental luxury, have a profound theological meaning related specifically to the Virgin and the history of redemption, and formed a metatext of meanings that alluded to the healing properties of plants and flowers. During the Low Middle Ages, through sensory experiences in the practices of prayer, the idea of paradise as an imagined place of communion, peace and health was evoked and reinforced.

 RESUMEN: En este estudio propongo que los motivos vegetales en los márgenes del libro de horas de la Biblioteca Newberry ms. 52, además de funcionar como ornamentos de lujo y tener un profundo significado teológico especialmente relacionado con la Virgen y con la historia de la redención, formaban un meta texto de significados que aludía a las propiedades curativas de las plantas y flores. Durante la Baja Edad Media, por medio de experiencias sensoriales en las prácticas de oración se evocaba y reforzaba la idea del paraíso como un lugar imaginado de comunión, paz y perfecta salud.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract This article examines conceptions of the Bible in early seventeenth-century England by discussing four instances of antagonism toward the Bible. In 1601/2, a group of papists rent and scattered the Bible and the prayer book in their parish church. In 1602, Katherine Brettergh suffered from a crisis of faith, during which she repeatedly threw her Bible away. Also in 1602, the young boy Thomas Harrison, possessed by the devil, snatched books of the Bible from anyone around him and tore them apart. Around the same time, in Christopher Marlowe’s play about Faustus, Doctor Faustus vowed to burn Scripture. In all four cases, views and emotions regarding the Bible were expressed by violent gestures. What is common to these unrelated episodes is an assumption that the Bible was somehow powerful; that the Bible was not simply Holy Scripture but rather a forceful and efficacious book. In the article I analyse this sense of forcefulness in the Bible. Historians are now paying more attention to the Protestant material Bible and the ways the book was employed as quasi-magical object. The article extends this focus on Bible and power to new directions. I examine notions of power in the Bible, expressed by people on the religious margins – some Catholics, a few Godly, one sorcerer – and I examine the attribution of power to Scripture without clearly distinguishing between textual (referential) and material (magical) uses.

Full textAbstract:
The article is devoted to Cyrillic handwritten books of the XIII–XIX centuries, created in the Romanian principalities, and stored today in the manuscript collections of the Russian State Library. The uniqueness of the writing system, functioning in the principalities (Wallachia, Moldavia, Transylvania) since their political formation, is that it was a Cyrillic script based on the old Slavic language with a predominant Roman-speaking population. In course of the writing system’ development in the principalities, there was a transition from the Slavic font to the Latin one; the intermediate result of this transition was the creation of monuments written in Romanian language with Cyrillic script. The main stages of this process are considered by reference to the specific examples of unique handwritten books and their fragments that have become objects for collecting by scientists, antiquaries, and Old Believers, whose book collections have formed the basis of the handwritten collections of the Russian State Library. They are the oldest Cyrillic manuscripts and their fragments dated to the XII–XIV centuries, found on the territory of Romania, Slavic manuscripts, produced mainly in monasteries of principalities in the XV–XVII centuries, translations of individual words into the Romanian language in the rewritten Slavic texts in the XVI century; the glosses and comments in Romanian on the margins of Slavic manuscripts in the XVI–XVIII centuries; numerous notes in the Romanian language in the manuscripts of the XVI–XVIII centuries, made by owners and readers; translations of literary monuments, including bilingual (Slavic–Romanian) and trilingual (Slavic–Latin–Romanian) versions in the XVI–XVIII centuries; Romanian–Slavic and Slavic–Romanian dictionaries in the XVII–XVIII centuries; letters and their copies in the Romanian language (sureties) in the XVI–XIX centuries. The article is an intermediate outcome of studying and describing Cyrillic Romanian handwritten books in the collections of the Russian State Library, which will result in the publication of a hard–copy catalog.

Full textAbstract:
In the essay an attempt is made to investigate the processes of construction and reconstruction of meaning in the later books of the Cambridge poet J.H. Prynne. It has been argued that his poetry disturbs the act of meaning-making in a ceaseless experimental reconnection of words taken from multifarious discourses, ranging from economics to theology. Yet, what appears striking in this poetry is the fact that these lyrics take their force from figurative meaning with which the words are endowed in the process of a poem’s unfolding. Prynne appears to compose his lyrics by juxtaposing words that in themselves (or sometimes in small clusters) do yield a meaning but together exude an aura of unintelligibility. We may see this process as aiming at the destruction of what might be posited as the centre of signification of the modern language by constantly dispersing the meaning to the fringes of understanding. The poems force the reader to look to the margins of their meaning in the sense that the signification of the entire lyric is an unstable composite of figurative meanings of this lyric’s individual words and phrases. To approach this poetry a need arises to read along the lines of what is here termed “fleeting assertion”; it is not that Prynne’s poems debar centre in favour of, for instance, Derridean freeplay but rather that they seek to ever attempt to erect a centre through the influx from the margins of signification. Therefore they call for strong interpretive assertions without which they veer close to an absurdity of incomprehension; however, those assertions must always be geared to accepting disparate significatory influxes. Indeed, interpretation becomes a desperate chase after “seeing anew” with language but, at the same time, a chase that must a priori come to terms with the fact that this new vision will forever remain in the making.

There is a library of Soviet scientists Valery Nikolaevich Chernetsov (1905-1970) and Stanislava-Wanda Iosifovna Moshinskaya (1917-1980) in the collection of Tomsk State University Research Library. They have gathered library numbered more than 2000 volumes during their life. It includes various brochures, magazines, prints of articles, abstracts of theses and separate fundamental researches of XVIII-XX centuries on archeology, ethnography, linguistics, folklore studies, history, arts of East Europe, the Urals and Siberia in Russian, English, French, Hungarian, Serbian and Swedish languages. It was an operating library of scientists, which obtains traces of their work such as notes on book margins, sheets with records and photos between pages. Undoubted interest are autographs on books and brochures in studying both reading and communication circles of the Soviet scientists-humanists. The article considers the problem of this library formation. Dedicatory inscriptions on books, abstracts and prints of articles, as well as Valery Nikolaevich's autographs help to solve it. They became an initial cause of this investigation. As the scholars’ field of interests and research activity has been related to studying West Siberia, a considerable part of monographs, paper collections, magazines and prints of articles is devoted to this region. Their library is demanded by researchers, students and teachers of Tomsk State University historical and geographical faculties, as well as archeologists. Based on V. N. Chernetsov and V. I. Moshinskaya’s collection stored in Tomsk State University Library it is possible to track not only the process of its formation, but also to observe the ways of creating personal interrelations of scientists from different corners of the Soviet Union and other countries.

L’étude des livres d’Heures imprimés destinés à un usage liturgique régional est d’un grand intérêt, puisque, dans le contexte de leur standardisation progressive, l’usage régional dans les Heures imprimées se fait de plus en plus rare à la Renaissance. L’objet de cet article est un livre d’Heures imprimé conservé au Département des livres rares et collections spécialisées de l’Université McGill. D’abord considéré comme une édition de Jean Dupré parue à Paris le 12 mars 1495, Harry Bober a suggéré qu’il s’agirait plutôt d’une édition imprimée pour Simon Vostre à Paris en 1507. Notre but premier sera de confirmer l’attribution de ces Heures, malgré l’absence de la page de titre, du calendrier et de quarante et un folios. Outre cela, on se penchera sur les gravures et les bordures qui reflètent le passage d’un style médiéval à un style davantage renaissant, de même que l’influence de l’art italien et allemand.
 There is great interest in the study of the printed Books of Hours intended for liturgical use; for as they were gradually becoming standardized, their regional use began to decline as the Renaissance drew nearer. The object of this article is the printed Book of Hours preserved at the University of McGill’s Rare Books and Special Collections. At first regarded as an edition published by Jean Dupré in Paris on March 12, 1495, it has now been suggested by Harry Bober that it should be considered an edition printed in Paris for Simon Vostre in 1507. Our first goal will be to corroborate the dedication of these Hours, despite the absence of its title page, calendar and forty-one folios. In addition, attention will be given to the engravings and to the margins which reflect the transition from a medieval to a more Renaissance style, as well as the influence of Italian and German art.

 Abstract
 
 Objective – To determine undergraduate students’ opinions of, use of, and facility with e-books.
 
 Design – A qualitative study that incorporated annual interview and usability sessions over a period of four years. The protocol was informed by interview techniques used in prior studies at Wesleyan University. To supplement the body of qualitative data, the 2014 Measuring Information Service Outcomes (MISO) survey was distributed; the researchers built five campus-specific e-book questions into the survey. 
 
 Setting – A small university in the Northeastern United States of America. 
 Subjects – 28 undergraduate students (7 per year) who attended summer session between the years of 2011-2014 recruited for interview and usability sessions; 700 full-time undergraduate students recruited for the 2014 MISO survey. 
 
 Methods – The method was designed by a library consortium in the Northeastern United States of America. The study itself was conducted by two librarians based at the single university. To recruit students for interview and usability sessions, librarians sent invitations via email to a random list of students enrolled in the university’s summer sessions. Recruitment for the 2014 MISO survey was also conducted via email; the survey was sent to a stratified, random sample of undergraduate students in February 2014. 
 
 Interview sessions were structured around five open-ended questions that examined students’ familiarity with e-books and whether the format supports academic work. These sessions were followed by the students’ evaluation of specific book titles available on MyiLibrary and ebrary, platforms accessible to all libraries in the CTW Consortium. Participants were asked to locate e-books on given topics, answer two research questions using preselected e-books, explain their research process using the above mentioned platforms, and comment on the overall usability experience. Instead of taking notes during interview and usability sessions, the researchers recorded interviews and captured screen activity. Following sessions, they watched recordings, took notes independently, and compared notes to ensure salient points were captured. 
 
 Due to concerns that a small pool of interview and usability candidates might not capture the overall attitude of students towards e-books, the researchers distributed the 2014 MISO survey between the third and fourth interview years. Five additional campus-specific e-book questions were included. The final response rate was 33%.
 
 Main Results – The results of the interviews, usability studies, and MISO survey suggest that although students use print and electronic formats for complementary functions, 86% would still select print if they had to choose between the formats. Findings indicate that e-books promote discovery and convenient access to information, but print supports established and successful study habits, such as adding sticky notes to pages or creating annotations in margins. With that being said, most students do not attempt to locate one specific format over another. Rather, their two central concerns are that content is relevant to search terms and the full-text is readily available. 
 
 Study findings also suggest that students approach content through the lens of a particular assignment. Regardless of format, they want to get in, locate specific information, and move on to the next source. Also, students want all sources – regardless of format – readily at hand and arranged in personal organization systems. PDF files were the preferred electronic format because they best support this research behaviour; content can be arranged in filing systems on personal devices or printed when necessary. Because of these research habits, digital rights management (DRM) restrictions created extreme frustration and were said to impede work. In some cases, students created workarounds for the purpose of accessing information in a usable form. This included visiting file sharing sites like Pirate Bay in order to locate DRM free content.
 
 Findings demonstrated a significant increase in student e-book use over the course of four years. However, this trend did not correspond to increased levels of sophistication in e-book use or facility with build-in functions on e-book platforms. The researchers discovered that students create workarounds instead of seeking out menu options that save time in the long run. This behaviour was consistent across the study group regardless of individual levels of experience working with e-books. Students commented that additional features slow down work rather than creating efficiency. For instance, when keyboard shortcuts used to copy and paste text did not function, students preferred to type out a passage rather than spend time searching for copy functions available on the e-book platform. 
 
 Conclusion – Academic e-books continue to evolve in a fluid and dynamic environment. While the researchers saw improvements over the course of four years (e.g., fewer DRM restrictions) access barriers remain, such as required authentication to access platform content. They also identified areas where training sessions lead by librarians could demonstrate how e-books support student research and learning activities. 
 
 The researchers also found that user experiences are local in nature and specific to campus cultures and expectations. They concluded that knowledge of local user communities should drive book format selection. Whenever possible, libraries should provide access to multiple formats to support a variety of learning needs and research behaviours.

When seen through the lens of the African American freedom struggle, the seemingly minor spaces and places federated by Gérard Genette under the term paratext take on a major role. Entangled throughout the margins and fringes of books and other kinds of texts (especially visual ones), the paratext (e.g., citations, prefaces, typeface) has served as a field through which white supremacy has been transacted indirectly: white-written prefaces to fugitive slave narratives are vivid examples. At the same time, the paratext has also served as a vector through which white power has been resisted. Examining the paratextual issues surrounding Frederick Douglass's Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave and Without Sanctuary, James Allen's exhibition of lynching photography, this essay explores what is gained and lost when the paratext is used as a means of resisting racialized domination.

Faculty in 46 Christian college and university psychology departments reported whether or not they teach explicitly integrative courses. Data analyzed included demographics, books used, course titles, pedagogical content and methods, and course goals. Results indicate that 33 of 46 institutions offer a full or partial course on integration. Most integration instructors are experienced, male, full professors, and typically teach seniors. Younger faculty place more emphasis on a value-committed approach, and women faculty are more likely to use cooperative learning. Instructors identified course goals and key issues suggesting that student outcomes ought to include deepening personal faith, understanding previous scholarly integrative thought, and critically evaluating new issues from a reasonably developed Christian world view. The absence of widespread consensus on form or content suggests that integrative instruction is closer to the margins than the heart of many psychology curricula in Christian institutions.

In his poems, Paul Celan does not use words such as territory, border, border crossing, and only very rarely the word space. I would like to reconstruct the traces of ?Heimat? in Celan (in a number of poems from different periods ?Heimat? plays an important role), and perhaps try to describe what Heimat might have meant for the young Paul Antschel (his real name). That is to say, I would like to understand whether ?Heimat? is synonymous with what Celan speaks about, many years after his name change, in the address given on the occasion of the Georg-Buechner-Preis: ?Ich suche auch, denn ich bin ja wieder da, wo ich begonnen habe, den Ort meiner eigenen Herkunft.? In the poems written at the time when Antschel is learning Hebrew as well as reading Martin Buber (Israel Chalfen) for the first time, I look for some basic figures Celan ties to his life in Bukovina at the time, in the environment of Czernowitzer Judentums. Aside from the works by Israel Chalfen, Else Keren and Elke Guenzel, I would like to make use of a book published some ten years ago, a detailed listing of Celan?s Paris library. I would like to consult this archive in the coming period, since Celan punctuated the margins of many of those books with evocations of his early creative period.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Janet Mock—writer, activist, television host, director—has become a leading voice for transgender women of color in the twenty-first century. In 2014, Mock published Redefining Realness with Atria Books. Shortly thereafter, Mock became a New York Times best-selling writer and garnered the critical praise of folks such as bell hooks, Melissa Harris-Perry, Oprah Winfrey, and more. Hooks described Mock’s work as a guide to transformation, Harris-Perry situated her work in the deep tradition of life writing in African American literature, and Winfrey called her a “fearless new voice” who “changed my way of thinking.” In 2017, Mock published her second memoir, Surpassing Certainty, marking a rare moment in which a transgender woman-of-color writer released a second book with a major publisher. During our conversation at Babbalucci, a restaurant in her beloved Harlem neighborhood, Mock reflected on her first book in light of the writing of her sophomore release. She also shared insight about writing love and dating storylines for transgender women of color, an amplified focus in Surpassing Certainty, and she discussed the dynamics of disclosure in narrative and life. Further, she ruminated about what constitutes home for her and how to write about space and place. Such remarks importantly center her Hawaiian roots and her multi-ethnic identity. Finally, Mock offered her most recent thoughts on being a trans woman of color in the public sphere in a turbulent national climate—particularly for folks on the margins of the already-marginalized.

Ouvrages précieux pour leurs propriétaires successifs, les livres d’Heures sont parfois riches en renseignements sur les premières familles qui les ont conservés. Certains livres d’Heures sont ainsi augmentés d’un livre de raison, offrant mémoires, évènements marquants et chronologie des temps forts d’une famille, consignés sur les pages de garde ou dans les marges laissées blanches. Peint en Bourgogne, le livre d’Heures ms. McGill 154 (v. 1480–1490) contient un livre de raison du couple Guillaume Tabourot et Jeanne Bernard (née en 1582), couvrant les années 1606 à 1645. Guillaume Tabourot (1573–1644) était le fils du célèbre littérateur Étienne Tabourot, seigneur des Accords. Cette contribution propose une transcription commentée du livre de raison Tabourot-Bernard. Le texte autographe consigné par Guillaume Tabourot reflète bien la montée et réussite sociale des Tabourot au sein de la haute société bourguignonne, où ils s’investirent dans les affaires parlementaires et municipales, mais aussi s’engagèrent dans des projets artistiques et architecturaux.
 Books of Hours are precious objects for their successive owners, for they are often rich in information concerning the earliest families who kept them. Certain Books of Hours are thus augmented by a livre de raison, supplying recollections, noteworthy occasions, and a chronology of the major events in a family’s history, which have been recorded on flyleaves or in the page margins. Painted in Burgundy, the Book of Hours McGill, MS 154 (v. 1480–1490) contains a livre de raison of the couple Guillaume Tabourot and Jeanne Bernard (born in 1582), covering the years 1606 to 1645. Guillaume Tabourot (1573–1644) was the son of the famous poet and author Étienne Tabourot, Seigneur des Accords. This contribution offers a transcription with commentary of Tabourot-Bernard’s livre de raison. The autographed text recorded by Guillaume Tabourot clearly reflects the rise and social success of the Tabourots within Burgundian high society, being involved in parliamentary and municipal affairs as well as artistic and architectural projects.

Between 1490 and 1525 various German print shops produced a great number of rather short texts that were the subject of university lectures as fascicles for students. Wide margins and line spacing left room for hand-written notes taken during the lecture course. Many of such annotated copies allow us to assume that the annotations are not textual commentaries in the usual sense. Rather, they are examples of a media practice indicating the tension between orality, handwriting, and printed books, especially since both the oral lecture course and the individual notes represent processes of transmitting and storing knowledge in which the text that is being explained does not even play a central role. We may compare them to modern, frequently collaborative practices that pursue aims going beyond straightforward models of text explication, which may help us develop more precise descriptions as well as a deeper understanding of the hermeneutics of textual annotation.

AbstractThis essay sheds new light on the controversial fourteenth-century poet and compiler Lodewijk van Velthem. Specifically, the article considers the possible relationships between The Hague, Koninklijke Bibliotheek, MS 129 A 10, the manuscript containing the famous Lancelot Compilation, and Leiden, University Library, MS BPL 14 E, the only extant manuscript with Velthem's entire Fifth Part of the Spiegel historiael. A note written at the end of the manuscript in The Hague naming Velthem has been interpreted in different ways, either as a note of the manuscript's ownership, or as the attribution of the compilation to Velthem. Other scholars have considered Velthem the 'corrector' of the manuscript. The relatively low quality of these two manuscripts, as well as the types of annotations made in the margins of MS 129 A 10, however, can be explained when we consider both books as the poet's working copies, as manuscripts which formed part of Velthem's own literary archive.

Siborongborong is the first region that produces the largest kampung chicken with an average population of 83,349 heads.This study aims to identify the characteristics of kampung chicken marketing institutions and marketing channels, analyze marketing margins, farmer's share, profit ratio, and marketing costs for kampung chicken, as well as analyze the marketing efficiency of kampung chicken in Siborongborong. The method used in data collection is snowball sampling, while data collection in this study is primary data and secondary data. Primary data was collected through interviews using questionnaires and direct observation of farmers, middlemen and consumers. While secondary data is obtained from the Central Statistics Agency and other agencies related to research as well as from literature, books, or journals that can be used as references to support primary data during research. The results of this study indicated that two marketing institutions are involved, namely breeders and traders. There are two marketing channels, namely the first channel: farmers - retailers - consumers and the second channel: farmers - collectors/agents - retailers - consumers. Marketing analysis can be seen from several calculations, namely, the margin share where in this analysis channel II (IDR. 21,000) is greater than channel I (IDR. 15,000). Farmer's Share channel 1 (77.09%) is greater than channel II (67.69%). In channel II (3.79) profit ratio is greater than channel I (1.82) and in channel II marketing costs (IDR.7.613/kg/month) is greater than channel I (IDR. 5.304/kg/month). The marketing efficiency of kampung chicken is seen from its marketing efficiency, each channel has been efficient with a value between 0-33%.

Full textAbstract:
There are questions about what it means to do ‘Jewish philosophy’ from a post-religious perspective, and what it means to do ‘psychoanalysis’ from a post-Jewish one. Of psychoanalysis’ Jewish roots, there can be little doubt: not only were the great Founder and most of the little founders of the movement Jewish, but there are traditionally Jewish components of its whole stance, its Weltanschauung. Textual analysis characterized by interpretive flamboyance accompanied by an utterly rigid, even obsessive focus on the detail of each word, letter or gap; a critical space on the social margins; a tendency towards self-reflection and admission of, even enjoyment in, one's own neurotic impulses – these are the terms of the Freudian encounter, and they have trickled down through the movement's history, sometimes stronger, sometimes less so. That psychoanalysis was the paradigmatic ‘Jewish science’ scorned by the Nazis should not be taken to mean that it was not actually ‘Jewish’ in important ways, and that its peculiarly subversive, disruptive analysis of psyche and society did not have some important Jewish sources ( Frosh 2005 ).

Full textAbstract:
Not only scientific, but also public interest is caused by the cookbook of the interwar twenty years with the statement of its experience of food practices and gastronomic culture of that time which till now remained on the margins of bibliographic studies. Meanwhile, it continued the best traditions of Ukrainian culinary book publishing in the early twentieth century (published by Emilia Levytska and Leontyna Luchakivska). The emergence of numerous Western Ukrainian culinary publications during the 1920s and 1930s demonstrated a tendency to strengthen and popularize Ukrainian culinary discourse with its national traditions in their organic combination with the best examples of European cuisine, highlighting food culture with an emphasis on healthy and balanced nutrition. All this became possible due to the intensification of the process of forming the national identity of Ukrainians, increasing interest in the native language, culture, as well as modernizing the structure of all public and private life. The analyzed array of book editions is 25 titles, of which — 18 units of cookbooks and 7 editions of the auxiliary segment (technological food direction). Books on purely culinary topics are classified into encyclopedias, textbooks, cookbooks and manuals in terms of their genre affiliation. Geographically, only Lviv (9 editions) and Kolomyia (8 editions) are represented as the main publishing centers of Galicia. The authors of a number of books were extraordinary figures of their time: writers, politicians, publishers, journalists, teachers, representatives of famous Galician families (O. Kysilevska, O. Zaklynska, O. Franko, O. Lishchynska), who left a noticeable mark in the history of Ukrainian culture. Other personalities were less fortunate, they left their descendants only their culinary world, and their names and destinies due to lack of documentary evidence are unknown not only to the general public but also to researchers of the subject (M. Horbacheva, M. Velychkovska, P. Slyuzarivna, H. Onyshkevych). The Ukrainian cookbook of Galicia of the interwar twenty years is interesting not only for its selection of recipes and translation of culinary experience in our time; as one of the nation-building elements, it shows an interesting perspective for the conceptual understanding of the historical past. Everyday things, such as food, reveal not only the past (Ukrainian culinary traditions), but also the fact that in our culture it is worth respecting, returning or renewing. Keywords: cookbook, Galicia, interwar twenty years, gastronomic culture, Ukrainian.

Full textAbstract:
The article is dedicated to the publishing projects of doctor Haas, a Moscow medical man and philanthropist, and is based on the materials of the ecclesiastical censorship archival holdings. Haas published books aimed at the reforming of convicts who went to Siberia through transit prison. ‘On the margins’ of his enlightenment activities missionary publishing projects, addressed to the educated urban society, were established. Haas could not confine himself to working with prisoners; he wanted to offer the Russian society Christian literature following the traditions of post-Tridentine spirituality. By this time, books and reading had taken shape as a specific sociocultural institute in the educated noble society, where the knowledge of French was acquired from childhood. In such circumstances Haas aimed to ensure not the influence, but the assimilation of Western (Roman Catholic) Christian texts into the Russian culture. The state ban on proselytism rendered the implementation of the most of these projects impossible. However, the institute of the ecclesiastical censorship itself did not rouse inner remonstrance in him. The opinions of Haas and of censors, governmental officials, who regulated the publishing, concerning conversion were hardly divergent. All of them assessed religious conversion positively. The censors followed the orders of the government, accepting in Haas’s publishing projects everything that was in line with state legal norms and political attitudes of those times. The censors did not contradict when the members of the Prison Committee preached Christian kindness to rude and aggressive prisoners. But Haas’s attempts to promote Catholic authors in educated circles turned out to be inacceptable.
