Elkind, Landon. "Conceptual Engineering or Revisionary Conceptual Analysis? The Case of Russell's Metaphilosophy Based on Principia Mathematica's Logic." Dialogue 60, no. 3 (2021): 447–74. http://dx.doi.org/10.1017/s0012217321000317.

Abstract:
AbstractConceptual engineers have made hay over the differences of their metaphilosophy from those of conceptual analysts. In this article, I argue that the differences are not as great as conceptual engineers have, perhaps rhetorically, made them seem. That is, conceptual analysts asking ‘What is X?’ questions can do much the same work that conceptual engineers can do with ‘What is X for?’ questions, at least if conceptual analysts self-understand their activity as a revisionary enterprise. I show this with a study of Russell's metaphilosophy, which was just such a revisionary conception of conceptual analysis.

Abstract:
Arguments are presented for the merit of integrating specimen databases into the practice of revisionary systematics. Work flows, data connections, data outputs, and data standardization are enumerated as critical aspects of such integration. Background information is provided on the use of “barcodes” as unique specimen identifiers and on methods for efficient data capture. Examples are provided on how to achieve efficient workflows and data standardization, as well as data outputs and data integration.

Full text
Abstract:
The ant genus Basiceros is an exclusively Neotropical group known for its cryptic habits. Based on a recent molecular phylogenetic framework, a comprehensive revisionary study of the genus is presented. Nine species are recognized, two of which are described as new (Basiceros browni sp. nov. and Basiceros tumucumaquensis sp. nov.). Basiceros redux (Donisthorpe 1939) is transferred to the genus Octostruma (O. reducta comb. nov.). As part of this revisionary work, taxonomic keys and images to all species and castes are provided. Castes and sexes (including larvae, males, and intercastes) are described for the first time for several Basiceros species. New records considerably expand the distributional range for most species. Natural history data and comments on character plasticity and convergence are also included.

AESCHT, ERNA. "Evaluating nomina of the phylum Ciliophora: examples for increasing work load of serious taxonomists." Bionomina 36, no. 1 (2023): 69–96. http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/bionomina.36.1.4.

Full text
Abstract:
Thirteen examples mainly taken from ciliatology illustrate the increasing work load of serious taxonomists interested in the reliability of nomenclatural information and trying to be Code-compliant. Weaknesses of the “Amendment” of five articles to expand methods of publication of the Code resulted in the increasing vagueness of dating a nomen (and/or even authorship). The statuses of periodicals with two ISSNs (Print and Online), online-only versions not being or incompletely registered in Zoobank and Corrigenda are often questionable. It is necessary to check in detail the nomenclatural availability of novelties included in them. The Zoobank registration of works published on ciliates is of little help in this respect. There was also retrieval inefficiency and bias of the search engine Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) tested for a subset of ciliate nomina (nearly 350 nomina and/or spellings) involved in unavailability, mainly objective synonymy and homonymy. The results clearly indicate that the taxonomic status is privileged and nomenclatural revisionary work, which often is spread over three or more decades, is very fragmentarily recognised. Moreover, the main subcategories of synonymy (including alloneonymy) and the correctness of information on senior and junior homonyms are disregarded. Recent monographies are not adequately represented in online databases and websites, forcing genuine taxonomists (after the promulgation of the revisionary work) to check a second time and often to correct each single record in the internet.

Abstract:
Taking its cue from the rediscovery of H.D.’s works initiated in the 1980s, this article aims to advance the efforts destined to recover the modernist poet’s revisionist legacy and, in particular, her revisionary myth-making. To this end, adopting a myth-criticism interpretative approach, I will analyse one of the most relevant examples of H.D.’s work in this respect: her lyric poem “Eurydice” (1925). In particular, I will examine H.D.’s ‘tactics of revisionary mythopoesis’, that is, narrative strategies which distance her poem from the dominant account of the myth and that enable the poet to contest the established classical tradition. The examination will ultimately bring to the surface H.D.’s invaluable contribution to the re-shaping and re-writing of myth from a female perspective and the way in which she created a different, subverted, version of the classical account.

Putnam, Phoebe. "“Not Quite—Content—”: Emily Dickinson Retouches a Paint Mixed by John Quincy Adams and Oliver Wendell Holmes." PMLA/Publications of the Modern Language Association of America 129, no. 1 (2014): 52–70. http://dx.doi.org/10.1632/pmla.2014.129.1.52.

Full text
Abstract:
This essay presents the discovery that one of Emily Dickinson's least-read poems, “It's thoughts—and just One Heart—,” is an unmarked revisionary reply to a poem by Oliver Wendell Holmes that itself is a revisionary reply to a poem that John Quincy Adams wrote in reply to a poem by Oliver Goldsmith. The stakes of this finding are high, for scholars today still understand Dickinsonian intertextuality within the framework of a famous claim that the poet made in 1862, that she “never consciously touch[ed] a paint, mixed by another person” without “mark[ing]” (overtly identifying) her use of allographic material. “It's thoughts—and just One Heart—” renders this claim null and void, even according to the generous terms with which we currently parse it, and is therefore a poem that compels us to reconsider decades of scholarly consensus about how and to what extent Dickinson engaged in her work with the literature and popular culture of her place and time.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract Financial exploitation can have a devastating impact on the independence and wellbeing of older adults, yet the reasons why some older adults experience financial exploitation remain elusive. Recent work informed by the fields of neuropsychology, neuroscience, behavioral economics, and epidemiology has increasingly demonstrated links between financial vulnerability in older age and serious health outcomes such as cognitive decline and incident Alzheimer’s Disease. Because of this, research on financial exploitation in older age has progressively been made a public health priority, and this has led to a substantial expansion in knowledge on the topic. Despite this beneficial growth in understanding, gaps in knowledge, misconceptions, and ageist viewpoints continue to persist. To address these, this presentation will (1) discuss the potential role of age-associated cognitive changes in financial exploitation, (2) review neuroimaging findings from our group and others relevant to understanding possible brain changes involved, and (3) highlight cross-cultural, interpersonal, and other considerations that need prioritization in future research endeavors. In conclusion, we will present a revisionary model of financial exploitation in older age which considers not only the potential vulnerabilities of the older adult, but also the persons committing the financial exploitation and the contextual factors that may contribute to poorer outcomes. This revisionary model can more effectively inform interventions for the prevention and mitigation of financial exploitation in older age.

The article presents the main features of a theory of responsibility and the conditions that determine who can and cannot be held responsible, with a focus on different types of incapacity for responsible behaviour. The article has four parts. The first three parts answer the following questions: what is responsibility; what is capacity for responsible behaviour; and, what is incapacity for responsible behaviour. Part four answers some possible objections. The answers are based on Antonio Damasio’s understanding of the mind, Manuel Vargas’ revisionary theory of responsibility, and previous work by the author on free will.

Abstract:
Is disgust morally valuable? The answer to that question turns, in large part, on what we can do to shape disgust for the better. But this cultivation question has received surprisingly little attention in philosophical debates. To address this deficiency, this article examines empirical work on disgust and emotion regulation. This research reveals that while we can exert some control over how we experience disgust, there’s little we can do to substantively change it at a more fundamental level. These empirical insights have revisionary implications both for debates about disgust’s moral value and for our understanding of agency and moral development more generally.

Abstract:
Abstract A revisionary reading of Descartes's epistemology has emerged in the literature. Some commentators have argued that Descartes subscribes to passionate epistemology, which claims that epistemic progress in the Meditations requires contributions from the meditator's passions. This paper argues that the passions cannot perform any epistemic work in the Meditations. As such, the meditator's passions do not require us to revise our canonical understanding of the Meditations as an exercise of pure thought. Furthermore, we need not abandon the standard claim that ethical practice emerges in the tree of philosophy only after metaphysics and epistemology have been established.

Abstract:
Insouciance about the reliability of editions of SF titles can sometimes be a source of embarrassment. On the other hand, deciding on an authoritative text is not always a simple matter, especially if the work in question is by H.G. Wells. The Island of Doctor Moreau is a case in point. Wells altered it on no fewer than five occasions subsequent to its original publication; and this continual revisionary process (which no single authorized edition can do justice to) is as much a meaningful aspect of the text as it is a palpable fact of Moreau’s textual history.

Abstract:
Shonen Matsumura (1872–1960), the founder of entomology in Japan, is no doubt among the most influential and prolific entomologists. He produced a series of works, illustrated lists of the insects and described as many as 1200 new species. Unfortunately, most of the types he named and collected from Taiwan were brought to Japan in the late 1940s, and were hard to access by foreign students until relatively recently.Matsumura's type depositions contain brief descriptions and, sometimes, only female specimens were available for his types. This prevented sound revisionary work in Taiwan. In addition, Matsumura did not designate holotypes in his early works but simply indicated how many specimens he had.

Abstract:
For more than a century and a half the identity of Linyphia (Leucauge) argyrobapta White, 1841, the type species of the spider genus Leucauge, has been a mystery and an obstacle for revisionary work on this orb weaving genus. The only known specimen of argyrobapta, the type, was collected by Charles Darwin in Rio de Janeiro during the voyage of the H.M.S. Beagle and was lost after White’s description was published. We designate a neotype for Linyphia argyrobapta (White, 1841) based on specimens collected in the type locality. The common and widespread American species Leucauge venusta (Walckenaer, 1841) is a senior synonym of L. argyrobapta.

Abstract:
AbstractExamining the legacies of European imperialism, this essay traces how the Bible reflects strong affinities with empire and provides ongoing justifications for empire and concentrations of power, including the evolution of the Bible from its production in empires of antiquity and the Bible’s supportive role in the development of modern imperialism. The essay also engages the ambiguities of the Bible as anti-imperial tool. Set within an examination of postcolonial studies as a revolutionary and revisionary discourse, this essay presses for a more vigorous postcolonializing of the Bible in biblical studies. A description of the contemporary features and manifestation of empire forms the context within which further exploration of postcolonial biblical critical work can take place. Following an assessment of previous work in the field, the challenges of intersectional work with queer studies, terrorism studies, technology, and ecological studies are laid out as future tasks.

Abstract We report the first Quaternary record of the big-eyed bat Chiroderma villosum from South America based on a left mandible fragment collected in the Gruta dos Brejões, late Quaternary of northeastern Brazil.

Abstract:
Abstract Robert Stern has argued that Levinas is a kind of command theorist and that, for this reason, Løgstrup can be understood to have provided an argument against Levinas. In this paper, I discuss Levinas’s use of the vocabulary of demand, order, and command in the light of Jewish philosophical accounts of such notions in the work of Martin Buber, Franz Rosenzweig, and Emil Fackenheim. These accounts revise the traditional Jewish idea of command and I show that Levinas’s use of this vocabulary is also revisionary. I show that in light of this tradition of discussion, Levinas’s use is not susceptible to the interpretation Stern proposes and thus that the Løgstrup-style argument cannot be used against Levinas.

Full text
Abstract:
Washington Irving's ‘sketch of the life of the founder of the Islam Faith’, Mahomet (1849), was one of the first works by an American dedicated to explaining Muslim history and its prophetic heritage to Western readers. For its time it was an enlightened work, recognizing many virtues within Islamic belief and practice alike, but nevertheless Irving's presentation frequently challenges Muslim orthodoxy, and has the potential to offend Muslim sensibilities. This article considers the tactics of its first Arabic translator in 1960, the prominent Muslim scholar ‘Alī Husnī al-Kharbūtlī. The translation encourages readers to understand Irving's work as a ‘meeting’ between ‘Western Christian thought and Arab Islamic thought’. It does so through a revisionary procedure commencing with minor shifts in diction, and culminating in comprehensive inversions. Through radical changes to his source, al-Kharbūtlī depicts Irving as Islamic advocate, rather than the Islamic critic he intended to be.

Abstract:
Abstract The genus Myoprocta Thomas, 1903 includes two living species of medium-sized caviomorph rodents of the family Dasyproctidae, the red acouchi, Myoprocta acouchy (Erxleben 1777), and the green acouchi, Myoprocta pratti Pocock 1913. Whereas some recent revisionary work has considered both species to be allopatrically distributed, other reports suggest that both taxa co-occur in eastern Colombia. In this contribution, I revaluate some qualitative and quantitative skull traits within Myoprocta to clarify its taxonomy and distribution. Multivariate analyses of quantitative skull characters support the distinction between M. acouchy and M. pratti, contradicting the findings of some previous authors. Based on these results and the examination of ~100 skins, I concur with the hypothesis that the two species are allopatrically distributed.

Full text
Abstract:
This essay surveys a 20-year period of the author’s studio-based research into “spatial montage” and windowing, elaborating on his use of space imagery in a symbolic system describing the critique of fantasy::reality through symbols that are still used in the contemporary world—how the mythic dimensions of interpreting the “heavens” collide and contradict contemporary scientific interpretations. “Visionary” art is the dynamic focus, with the Moon as the central icon, providing a direct means for the author to consider ambiguities and complexities of symbolic transformation: earlier descriptions of heavens and Earth provide a visionary subtext to scientific exploration. The author considers himself a “revisionary” artist whose work engages the implicit semiotics of visionary film/visual music to problematize the pseudoscientific theories found there.

Abstract:
Gastrodia dyeriana King &amp; Pantling [Orchidaceae-Epidendroideae-Gastrodieae], earlier known as an endemic species in India, was first reported from Sikkim. As part of the ongoing revisionary work on the genus Gastrodia Brown, it has been found that the name G. dyeriana is not typified. Therefore, a lectotype has been selected for the name. Moreover, the species was reported from Arunachal Pradesh earlier, which lacked citation of any authentic voucher specimen. During a recent field survey in Arunachal Pradesh, the species was collected from a different location. A detailed description along with photographic illustration, data on phenology, habitat and updated distribution is provided for easy identification. Conservation status of the species has also been assessed during the present study following the IUCN guidelines.

Abstract:
Can social groups, as social groups, sin? Can they be judged? There is an ambivalence in late 20th-century Catholicism in this regard, between a form of personalism on the one hand, in which only individuals are persons and hence moral subjects, and traditional Thomists along with revisionary liberation theologians on the other. This paper argues that we can accommodate the worries of the first group with the more robust social ontology implied by the second. This social ontology can be found both in the work of contemporary analytic philosophers and, inchoately at least, in traditional Aristotelianism, and it allows us to give a more precise account of the metaphysics of structural sin than the alternatives. The paper concludes by suggesting that there is a way in which social groups, as social groups, might face judgment and then persist eschatologically.

Abstract:
The higher classification of the mirid subfamily Bryocorinae has received comparatively little attention. It is not highly species-rich in comparison with other mirid subfamilies but does exhibit extraordinary morphological heterogeneity. In this work we provide a synthesis of the subfamily on a global basis, providing a new key and updated diagnoses of supraspecific taxa. Five tribes are recognised: Bryocorini, Dicyphini, Eccritotarsini, Felisacini and Monaloniini. The genus Campyloneura Fieber is transferred from the tribe Dicyphini to the Eccritotarsini. Analysis of distributional patterns and a survey of host plant associations are provided. Available data on distribution of the main bryocorine lineages are summarised in tabular form and evaluated using UPGMA methods, and geographically structured patterns were detected. The synthesis will enable users to identify bryocorines to tribal level with confidence and provides a classificatory framework for future revisionary and phylogenetic studies.

Abstract I begin by clarifying Tallis’s revisionary terminology, showing how he redraws the lines of the traditional debate about free will by classifying himself as a compatibilist, when in standard terms he is an incompatibilist. I then examine what I take to be the two main lines of argument in Freedom, which I call the Mysterian Argument and the Intentionality Argument. I argue that neither can do the required work on its own, so I ask how they are supposed to combine. I then argue that a commitment to the ontological priority of everydayness, of the kind suggested in chapters 5 and 6 of Freedom, might combine the arguments in such a way as to secure Tallis’s conclusion. I conclude that the argument of Freedom requires positive metaphysical commitment of a kind Tallis has yet to provide.

Full text
Abstract:
This paper examines the poetics of perception and the accompanying moral commitments of William Carlos Williams’s poetry, paying attention in particular to the visual ethos of his work. If in his early years Williams conceptualized the poet’s function as “lifting to the imagination those things which lie under the direct scrutiny of the senses.” One of the chief arguments here is that this emphasis be understood as an expansive and ethically implicating one, rather than in creatively circumscribing terms. “Such war, as the arts live and breathe by,” Williams asserts in 1944, “is continuous.” After establishing the ethical basis for Williams’s poetics, this paper assesses the perceptual politics of his work of the 1940s specifically, and in a number of literary and historical contexts, including: his revisionary engagement with William Wordsworth and the Romantic tradition; his infamous poetic “exultation” at the bombing of London in 1941 and his elegy for President Franklin Delano Roosevelt; and his politically complex and often incendiary poems of social observation in these years. As such, this article both reveals and interrogates the sometimes contradictory ethical engagements and creative procedures that define Williams’s work in a period of profound political crisis.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract Coptotermes (Blattodea: Isoptera: Rhinotermitidae) is an economically important genus. There are many problematic taxa within the genus because of small differences between different species and large variations within the same species with respect to morphology. Coptotermes species, especially those in China, are in need of careful monographic revisions. In this paper, type specimens of 14 Coptotermes species were reexamined. Their relationship was preliminarily studied with statistical methods. The phylogenetic relationships among the 21 species that are recorded in China were investigated based on soldier morphological characters. The cladistic analysis inferred that Chinese Coptotermes species are divided into two main clades and there were some species closely related to C. formosanus Shiraki and C. gestroi (Wasmann), respectively. Based on a comparison of measurement data of the closely related species C. cochlearus Xia and He and C. gestroi in the cladogram, we propose that C. cochlearus is a new synonym of C. gestroi. In the situation where it is difficult to obtain more molecular data of Chinese Coptotermes species, the present work serves as a basis for further revisionary work on Coptotermes.

Over the last years, Monteiro Lobato has been rightfully accused by Brazilian and Latin American scholars of expressing racist and eugenic ideas in his body of work. In this article, we take a step further and add to this traditional portrait of his literary production an analysis of the impact of a new set of technological media during the first decades of the twentieth century on his writings. We discuss how these two main issues – i.e., technology and race – played out in Lobato’s historical representation of Brazil’s past and future and the influence that the United States could play in it. We show how a revisionary and racist version of the United States’ history and the ideal of an American technological prosperity in the 1920s inspired one of Lobato’s most contentious novels, the technological dystopia O Presidente Negro, ou O Choque das Raças, published in 1926.&#x0D; &#x0D;

Abstract:
In their monumental work Flora Indica, Hooker and Thomson (1855) described two new species under the genus Delphinium Linnaeus (1753: 530), namely D. viscosum Hooker f. &amp; Thomson (1855: 52) and D. glaciale Hooker f. &amp; Thomson (1855: 53) from the Sikkim Himalaya. In due course of revisionary studies in the genus Delphinium from India, the taxonomic difficulties associated with D. viscosum were addressed and resolved as a complex (Agnihotri et al., 2016). A thorough search of various national and international herbaria (BM, BSI, CAL, E, GH, JE, K, MEL, MH, NY and S: acronyms according to Thiers 2017 onwards) and a detailed study of both D. glaciale and D. viscosum complex have revealed that three names remain surrounded by uncertainty in typification. Therefore, a lectotype for the names D. glaciale, D. viscosum subsp. viscosum and D. viscosum subsp. gigantobracteum is selected here from amongst the original material.

Abstract:
The diversity of Rubus in South America is much understudied and a taxonomic framework needs to be established as a basis for future revisionary and phylogenetic work. Our review identified 110 names based on South American specimens which were published since 1767. Each name was then classified according to its botanical description and type material. Additionally, where necessary, we suggest appropriate lecto-, neo-, or epitypes. A comprehensive list of synonyms is provided and representative herbarium specimens for each country are cited to tentatively document geographical range. In total, we accept 46 species of Rubus recorded across South America, propose 19 new synonyms, restore R. organensis, previously a synonym of R. brasiliensis, provide a replacement name for the latter, and include new country records of R. azuayensis, R. laegaardii and R. rusbyi. This checklist serves as an essential starting point for future monographic and evolutionary studies on Rubus in South America.

Abstract:
Building on an ample foundation of (often feminist) revisionary literary scholarship, which over the last decade has fostered a substantial reexamination of “sentimental” texts created by late eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century American novelists, recent studies of sentimentality in nineteenth-century American culture have continued to expose its political import, social complications, gender paradoxes, and racial construction. Once dismissed as shallow tearjerkers, American sentimental novels, which often drew on the example of British fictional models from Samuel Richardson'sPamela(1740) andClarissa(1747-1748) to Charles Dickens'sA Christmas Carol(1843) andLittle Dorrit(1857-1858), have recently been recognized as “the most radical popular form available to middle-class culture.” By now, Leslie Fiedler's despair in the face of the alleged artistic impoverishments of these books has been abandoned by many critics, who, bypassing or modifying Fiedler's aesthetic imperatives, now prefer to ask pointed questions about the “cultural work” that these books have performed within American society.

This checklist contains taxonomic information and distributions for 720 drosophilid species, including all species descended from the most recent common ancestor of the Hawaiian Drosophilidae and all adventive species present in the Hawaiian Islands. The ancestor of the Hawaiian Drosophilidae colonized the archipelago roughly 25 million years ago and now includes 689 described taxa. This includes species placed in the genus Scaptomyza (273 spp), only some of which are Hawaiian endemics (148 spp), and all endemic Hawaiian Drosophila (416 spp). There are also 33 adventive species that have been introduced to Hawaii in the past ~200 years. Taxonomic placement, to the level of species subgroup, and all references related to replacement names and synonyms are included. This is the first comprehensive list to be published in over a decade and includes many recent changes and additions to the fauna, including 130 new species names. This checklist will serve as the basis for future revisionary work on the endemic Hawaiian Drosophilidae, particularly the genus Scaptomyza.&#x0D;
