Funded by the Italian Ministry of Education University and Research in the context of the Interlink program for 2006-2008, the project linked five Italian universities (Firenze, Pisa, Piemonte Orientale, Napoli “L’Orientale” and Trieste) and six European institutions (Central European University, Budapest, University of Paris 8 Vincennes-Saint Denis, University of Zaragoza, University of Saarland at Saarbrücken, London School of Economics and Adam Mickiewicz University, Poznan) over a three years period, providing both organizing and financial support as acknowledged below. The project was directed by the author of the present lines and had its coordinating and administrative seat at the University of Trieste, Department of History and Art History. These essays were first delivered as papers at the final project conference, held in Trieste in October 2008. Discussions during the three-days conference and subsequent re-elaboration over the next year and a half have produced the results which we offer to specialists and fellow researchers in the disciplines of cultural history, social history of ideas and intellectual history. We think nevertheless that the interest of these contributions lies not only in what they offer to academic introduction 9 scholars for the novelty of the research topics and the originality in method and conceptualization, but also in their capacity to suggest perspectives and disclose the complexity of a research field to younger scholars and students. Although they form part of wider individual researches, dealing with themes which each author has been elaborating for some time, and pursuing objectives well beyond the limits of this volume, all of these essays are published here for the first time. It would not be entirely correct to talk of a set of shared principles consciously posited at the outset of this project, as if we had actually moved from clearly formulated common assumptions in accurately planned directions. Such may be the modality of a research project in the natural sciences, involving collaborative procedures, a succession of strictly pre-ordained steps and a division of the experimental tasks leading to common general conclusions. Research methodologies in the human sciences are inevitably less strictly defined and expressed by protocols; above all, they are less conducive to step-by-step or final ‘deliverables’ (I am afraid that such a label risks overrating the practical applicability of this volume). Nonetheless, while respecting the autonomy of inspiration of each partner, some methodological considerations emerged during the course of our project and were refined during our discussions: I would like to recall them very briefly from my personal viewpoint. The first consideration concerns the concept of ‘diversity’, of which our researches tried to explore several expressions and implications. We assumed that ‘diversity’ denotes a perpetual problematic dimension of human collective existence. In any human agglomerate the intellectual apprehension of diversities, or of the self and the ‘other’, is the necessary cultural passage for producing an orderly coexistence at the level of a single society or of groups of societies or nations, where the centrifugal forces and the defense of the particular and the specific tend continually to resurface and check the potential for integration. It has been clearly said by ethnologists and anthropologists that such realities we describe as ‘ethnic groups’, ‘tribes’, ‘peoples’, ‘nations’, but also ‘class’, ‘orders’, ‘ranks’, ‘estates’ or just “the circle of the ‘we’” and the ‘others’, are all based on forms of identity which are not laid down in nature once and forever. They are not ‘natural’, ‘objective’ facts which the scientist’s eye ‘discovers’, ‘describes’ and catalogues in an archive. There is no such thing as an ‘archive’ of diversities and differences, because it is precisely part of the latter’s nature to be modified by historical circumstances and contexts and by human (not necessarily rational or willing) agency. Such identities and such ethnic groups, tribes, peoples, nations, ‘we’ and ‘they’, and so on, are cultural artifacts, crafted through complex processes depending on all those factors which affect and mould perception. The way in which ‘identity’ and ‘diversity’ are perceived and conceptualized in historical societies is a dramatic and highly unstable intellectual and political enterprise. It belongs to those founding acts and performatory discourses recognizable in any social construct at different moments of their historical life. The work of historians and social scientists consists in identifying, interpreting 10 and explaining these founding acts and discourses, their genesis and the way they circulate through languages, discursive acts, symbols, signs and rites. If then ‘diversity’ and ‘identity’ are

  • Requirements of Timely Performance in Time and Voyage Charterparties
    Graduate School REQUIREMENTS OF TIMELY PERFORMANCE IN TIME AND VOYAGE CHARTERPARTIES - AN EXPLORATION OF THEIR IDENTITY, SCOPE AND LIMITATIONS UNDER ENGLISH LAW Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Leicester by Tamaraudoubra Tom Egbe School of Law University of Leicester 2019 Abstract REQUIREMENTS OF TIMELY PERFORMANCE IN TIME AND VOYAGE CHARTERPARTIES - AN EXPLORATION OF THEIR IDENTITY, SCOPE AND LIMITATIONS UNDER ENGLISH LAW By Tamaraudoubra Tom Egbe The importance of time in the performance of contractual obligations under sea carriage of goods arrangements are until now little explored. For the avoidance of breach, certain obligations and responsibilities of the parties to the contract need to be performed promptly. Ocean transport is an expensive venture and a shipowner could suffer considerable financial losses if an unnecessary but serious delay interrupt the vessel’s earning power in the course of the charterer’s performance of his contractual obligation. On the other hand, a charterer could also incur a substantial loss if arrangements for the shipment and receipt of cargo fail to go according to plan as a result of the shipowner’s failure to perform his charterparty obligation timely and with reasonable diligence. With these considerations in mind, this thesis critically explores the concept of timely performance in the discharge of the contractual obligations of parties to a contract of carriage. While the thesis is not an expository of the occurrence of time in all the obligations of parties to the carriage contract, it focusses particularly on the identity, scope, and limitations of timeliness in the context of timely payment of hire, laytime and reasonable despatch.

  • Natural Histories
    chapter 1 Natural Histories “The action of the first human being in this golden age—wrote Linnaeus in a paraphrase of the Biblical story of creation—was the inspection of the crea- tures and the imposition of the names of the species according to genera”.1 The naming of creatures was also very much in the mind of the eighteenth-century Jesuit historian Pedro Lozano (1697–1752). In his Chorographic Description of the Great Chaco (Madrid, 1733), while describing the animals of that land, Lozano enumerated seven species of bees: yamacuá or mongrel bee, yalamacuá or moromoro bee, aneacuá or small black bee, and so on.2 Unlike Linnaeus, whose biological systematics was indissolubly tied to Latin, Lozano classified the bees using their aboriginal names and the implicit native taxonomy.3 He took those names from the vocabulary of the tongue of the Lules written by the Jesuit Antonio Machoni (or Macioni, 1672–1753), who in 1711 founded the reduction of San Esteban de Miraflores for this people from the eastern Andean valleys. As a procurator of the province of Paraquaria in Madrid and Rome, Father Machoni published his Arte y vocabulario de la lengua Lule y Tonocoté and also saw through the press Lozano’s Chorographic Description, the earliest example of the kind of natural history written by Jesuit missionaries in Paraquaria.4 1 Linnaeus, Systema naturae, 12th ed.

  • Lucan's Natural Questions: Landscape and Geography in the Bellum Civile Laura Zientek a Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulf
    Lucan’s Natural Questions: Landscape and Geography in the Bellum Civile Laura Zientek A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2014 Reading Committee: Catherine Connors, Chair Alain Gowing Stephen Hinds Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Classics © Copyright 2014 Laura Zientek University of Washington Abstract Lucan’s Natural Questions: Landscape and Geography in the Bellum Civile Laura Zientek Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Catherine Connors Department of Classics This dissertation is an analysis of the role of landscape and the natural world in Lucan’s Bellum Civile. I investigate digressions and excurses on mountains, rivers, and certain myths associated aetiologically with the land, and demonstrate how Stoic physics and cosmology – in particular the concepts of cosmic (dis)order, collapse, and conflagration – play a role in the way Lucan writes about the landscape in the context of a civil war poem. Building on previous analyses of the Bellum Civile that provide background on its literary context (Ahl, 1976), on Lucan’s poetic technique (Masters, 1992), and on landscape in Roman literature (Spencer, 2010), I approach Lucan’s depiction of the natural world by focusing on the mutual effect of humanity and landscape on each other. Thus, hardships posed by the land against characters like Caesar and Cato, gloomy and threatening atmospheres, and dangerous or unusual weather phenomena all have places in my study. I also explore how Lucan’s landscapes engage with the tropes of the locus amoenus or horridus (Schiesaro, 2006) and elements of the sublime (Day, 2013).

  • Fiestas and Fervor: Religious Life and Catholic Enlightenment in the Diocese of Barcelona, 1766-1775
    FIESTAS AND FERVOR: RELIGIOUS LIFE AND CATHOLIC ENLIGHTENMENT IN THE DIOCESE OF BARCELONA, 1766-1775 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Andrea J. Smidt, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2006 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Dale K. Van Kley, Adviser Professor N. Geoffrey Parker Professor Kenneth J. Andrien ____________________ Adviser History Graduate Program ABSTRACT The Enlightenment, or the "Age of Reason," had a profound impact on eighteenth-century Europe, especially on its religion, producing both outright atheism and powerful movements of religious reform within the Church. The former—culminating in the French Revolution—has attracted many scholars; the latter has been relatively neglected. By looking at "enlightened" attempts to reform popular religious practices in Spain, my project examines the religious fervor of people whose story usually escapes historical attention. "Fiestas and Fervor" reveals the capacity of the Enlightenment to reform the Catholicism of ordinary Spaniards, examining how enlightened or Reform Catholicism affected popular piety in the diocese of Barcelona. This study focuses on the efforts of an exceptional figure of Reform Catholicism and Enlightenment Spain—Josep Climent i Avinent, Bishop of Barcelona from 1766- 1775. The program of “Enlightenment” as sponsored by the Spanish monarchy was one that did not question the Catholic faith and that championed economic progress and the advancement of the sciences, primarily benefiting the elite of Spanish society. In this context, Climent is noteworthy not only because his idea of “Catholic Enlightenment” opposed that sponsored by the Spanish monarchy but also because his was one that implicitly condemned the present hierarchy of the Catholic Church and explicitly ii advocated popular enlightenment and the creation of a more independent “public sphere” in Spain by means of increased literacy and education of the masses.
