Full text

Abstract:

This chapter investigates examples of literary case studies by Alfred Döblin, a medical doctor and a main representative of the 1920s ‘New Objectivity’ aesthetic movement in Weimar Germany. Like fellow poet Gottfried Benn, Döblin brought his professional expertise in medicine to bear on his literary projects. Whereas his contemporaries were preoccupied with questions of social justice, Döblin was particularly interested in gender relations and the nexus between sexuality and crime, and used literature as a metaphorical laboratory to explore shocking and topical themes of the day. With his realistic case studies based on trials and his own expert knowledge of psychiatry, sexology and psychoanalysis, Döblin strove to bridge the gap between highbrow literature and the new empirical life sciences, as well as between his medical practice and his love of literature. His work demonstrates both the benefits and limits of the case study genre as a vehicle for transporting new forms of knowledge. While his attempts to refashion the literary case study as a crime novel by incorporating the latest theories about the human psyche and female homosexuality were of limited success, he achieved greater success with Berlin Alexanderplatz, a modernist novel about crime and sex in the metropolis.

Abstract:

This article considers four of the ways in which measurement practices have been applied to create formal models of culture in the social sciences. It first examines the nature of formal measurement models in the social sciences and compares this mode of scholarship to more hermeneutic styles of research, paying attention to debates over method in the social sciences before and after the cultural turn. It then discusses four different types of formal (measurement) models that have been especially important to the cultural sciences over the last century: pre-cultural turn/non-hermeneutic, pre-cultural turn/hermeneutic, post-cultural turn/non-hermeneutic, and post-cultural turn/hermeneutic. It also cites an exemplar figure for each model, namely, Alfred Kroeber, Claude Lévi-Strauss, Paul DiMaggio, and Harrison White, respectively. Finally, it revisits the problem of how to conceptualize a scientific hermeneutics by comparing the theorization of the practice of data analysis to Paul Ricoeur’s theorization of the practice of text analysis.

Abstract:

Maurice Merleau-Ponty’s phenomenology highlights the bodily, embodied dimensions and forms of non- or post-representational knowing for understanding organizational phenomena and realties as processes. In addition, it focuses on a re-embodied organization and a corresponding sense-based organizational practice. This chapter first considers Merleau-Ponty’s biography and intellectual life before discussing the significance of his ideas for process philosophy as well as organizational theory and practice. In particular, it examines some key concepts such as the living body and dynamic embodiment beyond empiricism and idealism, reversible flesh as elemental carnality and formative medium and chiasm, as well as wild being and be(com)ing. It also looks at Merleau-Ponty’s connections with two other process thinkers, Alfred North Whitehead and Gilles Deleuze. Finally, it assesses the significance of his process-philosophical phenomenology and ontology for organization studies.

Abstract:

This chapter turns to the scientific imaginary as it appears in the realm of art. It asserts that art has very often sought either to parody science or to diminish its claims to truth. Within this important post-Romantic strain of critique, this chapter isolates another voice that has sought to find a common imaginative ground between art and science. The chapter begins with Alfred Jarry's inauguration of the “science of 'Pataphysics” and ends with the literary refraction of Jarry's Gedankenexperimenten in the work of the Oulipo. The latter, in which the terms of art and criticism are uniquely joined, informs algorithmic criticism's emphasis on the liberating forces of (computationally enforced) constraint. Moreover, the chapter argues that this important modernist genealogy points to the primacy of pattern as the basic hermeneutical function that unites art, science, and criticism.

Full text

Abstract:

“Imagination,” a word evidently central to the vocation and sensibility of English Romantic poets, is likewise invoked often as a defining term in American literary history. But what are the theological implications of this crucial category, beginning with Coleridge’s seminal statements about it? How might the human faculty of imagination—often but doubtfully associated with an abstractly ethereal quality of mind—bear upon concrete facts of the world humans experience? And how, in the light of philosophic perspectives, together with Wendell Berry’s provocative reflections on “imagination in place,” might Imagination be understood as integral with the phenomenology of place? Such questions are addressed here by means of themes bearing on the Earthiness of Imagination, the Contemplative Reach of Imagination, and Numinous Layers of Place as Palimpsest. Literary texts analyzed to develop these themes include Whitman’s verse and works by two contemporary writers—poet Marilyn Nelson and novelist Alfred Véa.

Full text

Abstract:

Chapter 3 begins by providing an overview of the key events of eleventh-century England, to serve as a guide for comparing and evaluating both contemporary and twelfth-century retellings of this narrative. It then goes back in time to examine Anglo-Saxon models for leadership from the time of Gildas (writing in post-Roman Britain) and Bede, up to the last versions of ASC written in the eleventh century. The chapter discusses sources from the reign of King Alfred, in which we find early glimmers of the tensions among the responsibilities of kings which occur in a more pronounced fashion in the twelfth century. In considering the immediate reaction to each eleventh-century conquest, it explains that historians in late eleventh-century England saw themselves, the people, and their kings as victims of conquest, and that historians at the time explained the disasters of invasion by employing traditional models of collective sin and providential will.

Durán Castro, Mauricio. El cine como máquina de pensamiento y control. Editorial Pontificia Universidad Javeriana, 2020. http://dx.doi.org/10.11144/javeriana.9789587815252.

Full text

Abstract:

Tanto en su complejidad mecánica como en su articulación con el cuerpo social, el cine puede ser comprendido como una máquina con una doble potencia: por un lado, tiene la capacidad de representar y narrar el mundo y el ser humano; y, por el otro, es un aparato de control y sometimiento de hombres y mujeres, que vigila y registra todo desde cualquier lugar y momento o, de manera más subrepticia, desde el poder hipnótico de sus imágenes, capaz de mover las emociones de las masas. Mauricio Durán Castro examina en este libro esta doble potencia del cine, como una creación que le permite al hombre moderno ampliar su mirada científica y filosófica y, a la vez, atrapar su inconsciente. De esta manera, el cine, con sus creadores y sus espectadores, es estudiado desde las ideas de máquina de guerra, aparato de control, dispositivo de visión y autómata. Este acercamiento crítico invita a revisar la obra de cineastas como Dziga Vertov, Jean Epstein, Sergei Eisenstein, Alfred Hitchcock, Roberto Rossellini, Stanley Kubrick, Alain Resnais, Jean-Luc Godard, Harun Farocki o Chris Marker, a partir de las conceptualizaciones de importantes pensadores del siglo XX, como Gilles Deleuze, Félix Guattari, Walter Benjamin, Michel Foucault, Giorgio Agamben y Henri Bergson.

Abstract:

This journal reprints the history of the Elder Dempster company by Peter N. Davies, from 1852-1972, originally published in 1973. It includes an additional chapter, also by Peter Davies, on the history of the company from 1973-1989, covering its decline and final years. The purpose is to describe and analyse the economic history of the Elder Dempster shipping company and its predecessors, and provide an account of West African and British economic backgrounds. The journal is divided into five parts, each concerning a different era in the company’s history. Part 1 covers the formation of the African Steam Ship Company, which would eventually merge and become Elder Dempster; Part 2 covers the expansion of Elder Dempster and the partnership with Alfred Lewis Jones; Part 3 explores major historical events and their impact on Elder Dempster, including the Great War, the transition from war to peace, and the end of the Royal Mail group; Part 4 concerns the establishment of Elder Dempster Lines Limited, the emergence of successful rival companies, the Second World War and post-war reconstruction, and prediction for the company for the 1970s and beyond, as this part concluded the first edition of the history; Part 5 is a retrospective look at the 1970s and 1980s, and tracks the decline of Elder Dempster and the evolution of the Ocean Group.

Abstract:

Dreaming of Freedom in South Africa examines for the first time the many different texts imagining the future after the end of apartheid. Focused on well-known and obscure literary texts from the 1880s to the 1970s, as well as the many manifestos and programmes setting out visions of the future, this book charts the dreams of freedom of five major traditions of anti-colonial and anti-apartheid resistance: the African National Congress (ANC), the Industrial and Commercial Workers Union (ICU), the Communist Party of South Africa (CPSA), the Non-European Unity Movement (NEUM) and the Pan-Africanist Congress (PAC). The works of a number of South African literary figures are discussed, including Olive Schreiner, S. E. K. Mqhayi, Alan Paton, Karel Schoeman, Jordan Ngubane, Winnifred Holtby, Ethelreda Lewis, Dora Taylor, Livingstone Mqotsi, Peter Abrahams, Richard Rive, Lauretta Ngcobo and Bessie Head. Political thinkers analysed include Nelson Mandela, R. F. A. Hoernlé, Albert Luthuli, Clements Kadalie, A. W. G. Champion, Edward Roux, James La Guma, Alfred Nzula, I. B. Tabata, Ben Kies, Anton Lembede, A. P. Mda and Robert Sobukwe. The theoretical dimensions of the study are orientated in relation to major Marxist critics of utopianism like Marx, Friedrich Engels, Leon Trotsky and Ernst Bloch, as well as to thinkers like Hannah Arendt, Immanuel Wallerstein, James C. Scott and Jay Winter. More than an exercise in historical excavation, Dreaming of Freedom in South Africa raises challenging questions for the post-apartheid present.

Gagliano, Marco da. Madrigals, Part 4. Edited by Edmond Strainchamps. A-R Editions, 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.31022/b221.

Full text

Abstract:

Il quarto libro de madrigali a cinque voci, the fourth of six books of madrigals by the Florentine composer Marco da Gagliano, was published in 1606. The book is distinguished by the excellence of its music as well as by its varied settings of texts by some of the most celebrated poets of the day. Five of the madrigals use texts by Giovanni Battista Guarini, three by Giambattista Marino, one each by Gabriello Chiabrera, Cosimo Galletti, and Alsaldo Cebà, and a final two-part madrigal for six voices sets a sonnet by the great fourteenth-century poet Francesco Petrarca. In addition to fourteen madrigals by Gagliano, the book contains three by guest composers Luca Bati and Giovanni and Lorenzo Del Turco. Gagliano's madrigals in book 4, in contrast with those of his earlier books, are lighter and show the clear influence of the contemporary canzonetta, which is manifested in their brevity; the discrete sectioning of the music, frequently with concurrent rests in all the voices that separate the presentation of individual poetic lines; the omnipresent syllabic setting of words; and the simpler and shorter motives that are most often presented in a homophonic texture. In some of these madrigals, motives shaped by the melody and rhythm of spoken language might serve well in monodies. Indeed, in his magisterial study of the madrigal, Alfred Einstein went so far as to suggest that some of these madrigals have the effect of polyphonic, imitative arrangements of Florentine monodies.

Abstract:

En su tarea de tender puentes entre la enseñanza especializada y la gestión pública, la Escuela de Posgrado de la Universidad Continental publica Desafíos para el Congreso en el Bicentenario. Se trata de un volumen que compendia la perspectiva de diversos especialistas en la gestión pública, política, economía y la sociedad peruana. Los expertos abordan la realidad peruana y realizan propuestas al Poder Legislativo desde cuatro ejes: visión del país en el bicentenario, reactivación de la economía con desarrollo social, nuevos perfiles ciudadanos (electores, consumidores y emprendedores) y las funciones necesarias para los congresistas electos en una coyuntura crítica para el país. Max Hernández reflexiona desde el psicoanálisis sobre el rol de los congresistas y, al mismo tiempo, inaugura el volumen con una metáfora: la sociedad peruana es un paciente que requiere atención. Así, economistas como Carlos Paredes y Elena Conterno plantean medidas para la reactivación económica sin desatender los principales obstáculos por sortear: la ausencia del análisis de costo-beneficio en la toma de decisiones y la necesidad de identificar al menos cien puestos clave para la gestión estatal, entre diversas recomendaciones. Rolando Arellano y Alfredo Torres abordan los complejos procesos sociales y culturales que conforman a la ciudadanía peruana del siglo XXI: nuevos patrones de consumo, nuevos centros hegemónicos de comercio y tendencias políticas orientadas por nuevos canales de información son aspectos por contemplar para la nueva legislatura. Marisol Espinoza, Carlos Bruce y Jorge Del Castillo aportan, desde su experiencia como excongresistas, consejos para mejorar la eficiencia del cargo, así como su relación con la ciudadanía y los diversos agentes políticos. Aquí los congresistas electos encontrarán una propuesta de hoja de ruta. Quienes los eligieron podrán seguir su aporte a la gobernabilidad y la estabilidad económica.

Abstract:

La obra que hoy ve la luz es el producto del trabajo conjunto de todos los docentes que integran la Cátedra 2 de Derecho Administrativo, Segunda Parte de nuestra Facultad. Desde mi ya muy lejana época de estudiante la dispersión bibliográfica dificultaba el estudio de nuestra disciplina y, en no pocas oportunidades, la necesidad de asumir la lectura parcial de decenas de libros contribuía a que el Derecho Administrativo fuera catalogado como una cuestión árida y poco menos que inabordable. De allí que el proyecto de editar un trabajo de estas características haya estado rondando desde hace décadas para finalmente concretarse a impulsos de un hecho trascendente: la puesta en vigencia de un nuevo programa que viene a reemplazar al que se utiliza desde la década de 1970. La obra se ajusta puntualmente a sus contenidos con el objetivo de que los estudiantes cuenten con un volumen que les permita conocer acabadamente toda la materia, sin necesidad de peregrinar por numerosos libros y artículos sueltos no siempre disponibles en las bibliotecas donde resulta clásico que la demanda supere a la oferta. Naturalmente que las notas bibliográficas y jurisprudenciales consignadas al pie de cada página permitirá, a quien lo desee, profundizar todos y cada uno de los temas abordados. <i>(de la presentación de Carlos Alfredo Botassi)</i>
