Abstract:
A number of important questions about the theory of form are addressed: the definition of phrase, ritornello form, form as recipe versus form as structure, and the classification of codas. Disputes over the definition of phrase come might be resolved by replacing the rigid task of locating phrase boundaries to one of distinguishing more neatly phrased music, with coordinated structures, to less neatly phrased music. Ritornello form is distinguished from sonata form, and its history as a symphonic form is discussed. An argument is made for separating the theory of form from the study of formal recipes, exemplified surveys of works by Galuppi, Richter, Boccherini, Haydn, and Mozart. Finally, the network model of structure is applied to introductions and codas, leading to a classification of codas into adjunct, integrated, and disjunctive types.

Shamma, Yasmine. Ron Padgett’s Inner-Outer Spaces. Oxford University Press, 2018. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780198808725.003.0005.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter examines a range of poems by Ron Padgett which muse on lived-in spaces. Accordingly, this chapter illuminates the “nuts and bolts” of Padgett’s poems through close readings, coupling formal criticism with “gossip” of interview material to pursue more decisive statements regarding the distinct ways in which this form is unique in the way that it registers sought or actual lived in space. This becomes particularly possible within this close examination of Padgett’s poetry. As Padgett utilizes a particularly supple sense of poetic form, exhibiting a control on the page that reflects a control of thought, over and above the rigid limitations of urban space and structures of inherited form, he constructs metaphors that pursue the explosion of structural constraints. This chapter resists shying away from the ramifications of such explosions, ending this study of spatial poetics in the contemporary moment.

Abstract:
GM1 gangliosidosis is due to beta-galactosidase deficiency. The adult-onset form is characterized by progressive generalized dystonia, often associated with akineto-rigid Parkinsonism. Mild skeletal dysplasia and short stature are good diagnostic clues. GM2 gangliosidosis is due to beta-hexosaminidase deficiency. The adult-onset form is characterized by complex neurological disorders, in which features resulting from cerebellar and motor neuron dysfunction are the most frequent. Movement disorders, psychotic symptoms, mild pyramidal signs, axonal polyneuropathy, autonomic dysfunction, and vertical supranuclear palsy can also be observed. Clinical severity and the rate of progression both vary widely from one patient to another. Diagnosis is based on measurements of enzyme activity and molecular analysis. Physiotherapy, speech therapy and management of swallowing are crucial for these patients’ quality of life and prognosis.

Abstract:
In Japan, as in the west, gardens represent an idealized form of nature in which human beings reshape the natural world according to specific aesthetic paradigms. Unlike Western formal gardens, which are characterized by symmetry and rigid order, Japanese gardens present a more “natural” appearance by articulating the native characteristics of the materials, such as rocks and plants. The philosophy of Zen Buddhism, as well as the time-honored garden design principle of “following the request” show how Japanese garden designers are inspired by—and possibly improve upon—nature in their art and how a respectful attitude toward nature is expressed aesthetically in Japanese gardens.

Abstract:
Progressive supranuclear palsy is a four-repeat tauopathy that is confirmed, like all neurodegenerative disease, at postmortem examination. An expanding group of clinical syndromes are now linked with this pathology in its early stages, although with disease progression there tends to be greater clinical similarity with the classical Richardson’s syndrome, an akinetic rigid form of parkinsonism with a progressive supranuclear gaze palsy and prominent frontal cognitive impairment. Currently, there are no disease-modifying therapies for progressive supranuclear palsy; however, there continues to be interest in immunotherapies targeted at tau pathology. Liaison with colleagues with an interest in palliative neurology is appropriate for patients in the advanced stages of the disease.

Abstract:
Almost any neurological disorder can produce a disorder of movement but the ‘movement disorders’ include the akinetic rigid syndromes, hyperkinesias, and some tremors. It can sometimes seem, especially with the use of videotape recordings, that diagnosis of movement disorders is mainly a matter of correct visual recognition. Such an approach is not recommended and can lead to mistakes unless, as in other areas of medicine, the history is considered first and the physical signs second. Obvious examples include the family history in Huntington’s disease, developmental history in dystonic cerebral palsy, and neuroleptic drug treatment in patients with tardive dyskinesia. In addition, a single disorder may give rise to several different types of involuntary movement. For example, Huntington’s disease may give rise to an akinetic rigid state, chorea, myoclonus, tics, or dystonia. Patients with Parkinson’s disease taking levodopa may show different types of movement disorder at different times of the day.In akinetic rigid states the diagnostic issue will be whether the patient has idiopathic Parkinson’s disease or one of the other Parkinsonian syndromes. With involuntary movements, the first step in diagnosis is to classify these as dystonia, tics, tremor, chorea, or myoclonus. It must be remembered that involuntary movements are merely physical signs, not diagnostic entities, and that they do not always occur in a pure form; for example, patients with dystonia may have additional choreiform movements or tremor. If more than one form of abnormal movement seems to be present, the diagnosis should be based on the most obvious one. The next step is to decide on the cause of the movements and at this stage the diagnosis must be based upon an accurate and complete history as noted above.The movement disorders are often associated with abnormalities of the basal ganglia and, to some extent, vice versa. This is not entirely correct. Disturbances of basal ganglia function certainly have profound effects on movement with the development of bradykinesia, rigidity, tremor, or the various forms of dyskinesia. However, it is not correct when considering the pathophysiology of movement disorders to regard the basal ganglia as an isolated movement control centre. In fact, they are an important but poorly understood component of a much wider motor system. It is also important to remember that the basal ganglia are involved in the processing of limbic and other cognitive processes which may also be disturbed by basal ganglia dysfunction.

Full text
Abstract:
Reports of fatal febrile, hypertensive, tachycardic neurotoxic cases followed quickly on the introduction of potent new neuroleptic drugs in the 1970s. Patients became mute, rigid, posturing, and staring, showing the signs of catatonia. Labeled the neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS), attention was first given to neuroleptic blockade of dopamine receptors as the cause, but treatments with dopamine agonists (bromocriptine) and muscle relaxants (dantrolene) offered little benefit. When catatonia was recognized, treatments with benzodiazepines (lorazepam, diazepam) and induced seizures (electroshock, ECT) led to clinical relief and the saving of lives. The recognition of NMS as catatonia stimulated a revision of the century-long view of catatonia as a form of schizophrenia, with calls for catatonia to be considered independent of schizophrenia.

Abstract:
Children must learn to navigate the complex world of social interdependence. This chapter discusses the central characteristics of interdependent interaction, reviewing recent research from social psychology. It then explores the repertoire of skill necessary for successful navigation of interdependence, and how rigid coercive aggression might impede success. It combines a dynamic systems framework with developmental and family research on social interaction in dyads and larger groups. In this view, elements of emotion, thought, and action assemble at each moment during real-time interaction, conditioning and being conditioned by the ongoing flow of that interaction. These elements come to form coordinated ensembles at the individual, dyad, and group level, and over time self-stabilize into coherent styles, including coercive aggression and prosocial orientations. The chapter then focuses on how these styles develop, and concludes with discussion of directions for future research and intervention.

Full text
Abstract:
A psychodynamic perspective attempts to understand the symptoms of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and obsessive-compulsive personality disorder (OCPD) in terms of excessive, maladaptive efforts to cope with perceived dangers posed by aggressive or sexual impulses and in terms of distorted information processing and rigid cognitive styles that are intolerant of ambiguity. The psychodynamic perspective also sees OC phenomena against the backdrop of normal childhood development and the vicissitudes of conscience formation, as well as culturally defined notions of ordered boundaries/transgressions and cleanliness/pollution. This perspective provides valuable insights into the subjective experience of patients with these disorders. Similarly, although psychodynamic therapy in its classic form appears to be ineffective for the core symptoms of obsessions and compulsions, the psychodynamic approach can be very helpful in understanding what patients make of their symptoms and in forming a therapeutic alliance that facilitates more evidence-based approaches.

Lunn-Rockliffe, Katherine. French Romantic Poetry. Edited by Paul Hamilton. Oxford University Press, 2016. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oxfordhb/9780199696383.013.7.

Full text
Abstract:
French Romantic poetry marked a dramatic break with a national tradition of verse which had been inherited almost unaltered from the seventeenth century. During the eighteenth century, the neo-classical conception of poetry as a rule-governed and highly stylized art had continued to prevail; verse was characterized by a solemn tone and narrow lexis, and there was a rigid distinction between poetic genres. Whereas Romantic poetry in England and Germany seemed already to allow the imagination free reign, in France poets needed first to reject these neo-classical conventions. Victor Hugo declared in the preface to hisOdes et balladesof 1822 that ‘La poésie n’est pas dans la forme des idées, mais dans les idées elles-mêmes’ (poetry lies not in the form of ideas but in the ideas themselves), and the French Romantic poets were all in different ways engaged in reshaping the forms of poetry to suit their individual purposes.

Abstract:
Chapter five argues that the best way to grasp William Faulkner’s oeuvre is through the paradigm of the short story cycle because of his use of limited localities, interstitial temporalities, and formative kinships; this approach pushes against a mountain of criticism that expects and measures the unity of his work. The form, with its privileging of multiple, competing narratives, is ideally suited to articulating the crises of history and subjectivity that Faulkner dramatizes. Faulkner’s achievements in the cycle reach an apex in Go Down, Moses (1942), which is his most sustained treatment of black-white relations. Go Down, Moses explores both continual and heightened moments of interracial intimacies. The stories most sharply narrate the crises that the white McCaslin line faces when grappling with their unacknowledged kinship with the black Beauchamp line. This chapter demonstrate that the cycle dramatizes the production of provisional racial identities, because they do not depend upon rigid distinctions, essential characteristics, or defined origins.

Full text
Abstract:
This book examines a repertoire of homophonic vernacular partsongs composed around the turn of the seventeenth century, and considers how these partsongs exploit rhythm, meter, phrase structure, and form to craft harmonic trajectories. Giovanni Giacomo Gastoldi, Thomas Morley, Hans Leo Hassler, and their contemporaries engineered a particular kind of centricity that is distinctively tonal: they strategically deployed dominant harmonies at regular periodicities and in combination with poetic, phrase structural, and formal cues, thereby creating expectation for tonic harmonies. Homophony provided an ideal venue for these experiments: spurred by an increasing demand for comprehensible texts, composers of partsongs developed rigid text-setting procedures that promoted both metrical regularity and consistent phrase rhythm. This rhythmic consistency had a ripple effect: it encouraged composers to design symmetrical phrase structures and to build comprehensible, repetitive, and predictable formal structures. Thus, homophonic partsongs create and exploit trajectories from dominants to tonics on multiple scales, from cadence to sub-phrase to phrase to form. Ultimately, this book argues for a model of tonality—and of tonality’s history—that centers not pitch, but rhythm and meter. Metrically oriented harmonic trajectories encourage tonal expectation. And we can locate these trajectories in a variety of repertoires, including those that we traditionally understand as “modal.”

Abstract:
This chapter examines how the Arab Spring was gradually sectarianized, leading to the emergence of more rigid and puritanical sect-based identities and inter-communal conflicts across the Middle East, extending even further outside of the region and across the Muslim-majority world. Using the social movement theory concept of “framing,” it considers how various political and armed actors involved in the Syrian civil war and the conflict in Iraq, including actors such as the Iranian government, Hizbullah, Sunni and Salafi actors in the Arab Gulf states, and Sunni rebel and other militant jihadi organizations such as Jabhat al-Nusra/Jabhat Fath al-Sham, Islamic State, Jaysh al-Islam, and Ahrar al-Sham, have drawn on competing historical narratives and memory in combination with contemporary events to produce a thoroughly modern but also selectively “historicized” social mobilization narrative meant to encourage activism from their target audiences. The ways in which clashing historical memory and narratives are deployed in regional conflicts, which constitutes a form of re-fighting the past in the present, are analyzed. Specific historical references, such as the invocation of Shi‘i legendary heroes of Karbala such as Abu al-Fadl al-Abbas, which are deployed as rhetorical weapons in geopolitical contests over power and political dominance, are also considered.
