The critical approach of 1 new museology in the late 20th century launched a museum practice. The museum invited us to be com- systematic revision of the social and epistemological role pletely free in our approach to the task, and at first we museums play in contemporary culture. New museology highly increased, or at least required, the self-reflexivity deemed it as a double task. On the one hand, there was of cultural displays, however, an increase in reflexivity a chronological exhibition of partly folk, partly artistic, does not involve, in a self-evident way, an increase of intensified experience, which became crucial to our professional and industrial exhibition materials, under contemporary life, especially in the perspective of the title of The living tradition of ryijy – Finnish rugs from somaesthetics. Thus, more recent museological and curatorial approaches, oriented according to the a private collection. On the other hand, the bustle of the corporeal turn in philosophy and social sciences, Design Week and the freshness of art students’ creativity emphasize the effects and consequences of the sensorial range in use within cultural displays. -
Musical Evolution and Human Migration
MUSICAL EVOLUTION AND HUMAN MIGRATION MUSICAL EVOLUTION AND HUMAN MIGRATION: CLASSIFICATION, QUANTIFICATION, AND APPLICATION By PATRICK E. SAVAGE, B.A.(Hons) A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science McMaster University © Copyright by Patrick E. Savage, August 2011 MASTER OF SCIENCE (2011) McMaster University (Psychology, Neuroscience and Behaviour) Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: Musical evolution and human migration: Classification, quantification, and application AUTHOR: Patrick E. Savage, B.A. (Hons) SUPERVISOR: Dr. Steven Brown NUMBER OF PAGES: vi, 76 ii Abstract Musical evolution and human migration: Classification, quantification, and application Patrick E. Savage Master of Science Depratment of Psychology, Neuroscience and Behaviour McMaster University 2011 The cross-cultural study of music is important to our understanding of the evolution of human biological and cultural diversity. Early comparative musicologists failed to develop rigorous scientific methods for studying this, and the modern-day fields of music cognition and ethnomusicology still lack such methods. In this thesis, I describe our attempts to design new methods for classifying and quantifying cross-cultural musical diversity and to apply these methods to the study of musical evolution and migration. Using a new method of classifying songs, we analyzed 421 songs from 16 indigenous tribes in Taiwan and the Philippines. We found striking parallels between musical and genetic diversity, both in the degree of diversity found within each culture and in the patterns of similarities between cultures. These findings suggest that music may be subject to similar processes of evolution and migration as are genes. A new, multidisciplinary, and scientifically-grounded comparative musicology may thus provide a new line of evidence to complement and integrate existing research into the complex relationship between music, biology, and culture. -

Piotr Sobolczyk* QUEERING the WARSAW UPRISING (WITH A
STUDIA HUMANISTYCZNE AGH Tom 14/2 • 2015 http://dx.doi.org/10.7494/human.2015.14.2.193 Piotr Sobolczyk* Polish Academy of Sciences QUEERING THE WARSAW UPRISING (WITH A LITTLE HELP FROM MIRON BIALOSZEWSKI) The essay calls for flling a gap in the studies on Warsaw Uprising concerning the place of queer people. A recent play, Snakepit by Joanna Oparek is considered, and the “scandal” surrounding Elżbieta Janicka’s academic work Festung Warschau is analysed, but the main source of understanding non-normative masculinities and sexualities is Miron Białoszewski’s Memoir of the Warsaw Uprising. The author offers a “paranoid” reading of traces, suggestions, allusions, and “illogical” fragments to build a working metaphor of queer acquaintances as an alternative “map” without the map. Finally he invokes the role of the picaresque narrative convention in representing such paranoid queer relationships. Keywords: Warsaw Uprising, queer, Polish history, Miron Białoszewski, Memoir of the Warsaw Uprising A QUEER HISTORY OF A WORLD WAR II AND A QUEER HISTORY OF THE WARSAW UPRISING A queer history of the Warsaw Uprising is yet to be written. In her recent monograph Płeć powstania warszawskiego [Warsaw Uprising’s Gender] (Grzebalska 2013), written from a feminist viewpoint, Weronika Grzebalska calls for the recognition of the role women played in the Uprising, and includes analysis of interviews with living female participants. Yet in terms of love or sexual relationships this analysis subscribes to a heteromatrix narrative: it suggests that all the relations women engaged in were heterosexual, and there is no mention of dissident sexualities among men which would oppose the dominant military model of masculinity. -
Ethnochoreology As a Mediating Perspective in Irish Dance Studies
Catherine E. Foley Ethnochoreology as a Mediating Perspective in Irish Dance Studies Up until the 1980s, dance in Ireland existed as an important human activity, engaged in for various reasons: socialization, entertainment, competition, per- formance, tourism, ceremonial occasions, and so on. It was not, however, re- searched and examined on a par with other fields of study within the social sciences. From the 1980s on, however, the academic study of dance within the context of culture increasingly gained ground in the West, due to the influence of a number of anthropologists in the United States interested in human move- ment studies.1 Academicians also began to note the work of ethnochoreologists in Europe who, since the 1960s, had been involved in field research and studies of dance in their respective cultures.2 Dance and the role that it played—together with the meaning that it embodied within diverse societies around the world— gradually became a significant field of research and study. Scholars within mul- tidisciplinary fields of study—including anthropology, ethnochoreology, eth- nomusicology, dance ethnology, sociology, philosophy, cultural studies, cultural geography and feminist scholarship—argued for the significance of dance and the body as a way of illuminating and understanding issues relating to human 1.

Emergence of Ethnochoreology Internationally: the Janković Sisters, Maud Karpeles, and Gertrude Kurath
Elsie Ivancich Dunin Emergence of Ethnochoreology... DOI: 10.2298/MUZ1417197D UDK: 394.3:793.3 39:929 Јанковић Љ. 39:929 Јанковић Д. Emergence of Ethnochoreology Internationally: The Janković sisters, Maud Karpeles, and Gertrude Kurath Elsie Ivancich Dunin1 University of California (Los Angeles) Abstract A fifty-year (1962–2012) period has been shown as a history of ethnochoreology supported by living memories of members of the International Council for Traditional Music (ICTM) Study Group on Ethnochoreology. Recently uncovered and juxtapositioned correspondence of three predecessors within earlier years of the International Folk Music Council (IFMC) broadens the history. This article reveals the emergence of ethnochoreology during the 1950s with publications of the two Janković sisters in Serbia with that of Gertrude Kurath in the United States, alongside correspondence with Maud Karpeles, the unheralded founder of the IFMC. Keywords ethnochoreology, Janković sisters, Gertrude Kurath, Maud Karpeles, IFMC (International Folk Music Council) Introduction The publications of Ljubica and Danica S. Janković2 overlap contemporaneously with dance research writings of Gertrude Prokosch Kurath,3 who in the United States (U.S.) is honored as a pioneer of ethnochoreology (also known as dance ethnology). Although never meeting, the Janković sisters and Kurath are linked through the International Folk Music Council (IFMC) launched by Maud Karpeles in 1947. Her vision of an international commission of dance scholars, such as Janković and Kurath, is evidenced through correspondence in the IFMC/ICTM archives located in the National Library of Australia. Other communications linking Janković and Kurath with folklorists, ethnomusicologists, and anthropologists are found in the Cecil Sharp House with the Vaughan Williams Memorial Library in London and various university-based archives in the United States, such as the Cross-Cultural Dance Resources at Arizona State University, Lilly Library at the University of Indiana in Bloomington, and more. -

They can be the starting point for a new understanding of what is the ‘material basis’ in social and cultural theory. Based on three decades of compara tive studies in body cultures, some methodological and theoretical observations are concluded. They propose directions for a future phenomenology, history, and anthropology of practice. Body culture studies open perspectives for a new way of thinking dialectically and for a humanistic materialism. They contribute to inter-bodily democracy. 1. The body asa material base The body is the material base of our existence as a human being. The body tells our story: Who am I, who are we? On one hand, the body is a part of human existence, which the individual is not free just to choose freely. On the other hand, the body is not determined from the very beginning. Between the given body on one hand and intentional body management on the other, body culture devel ops in a process, which is historical and collective. -

Arani Introduction Outside Europe, the conflicting memories of Germans, Poles and Jews are hard to understand. They are informed by conflicts before and during the Second World War. In particular, the impact of Nazism in occupied Poland (1939–45) – including the Holocaust – is difficult to understand without considering the deceitful propaganda of Nazism that affected visual culture in a subliminal but crucial way. The aim of this chapter is to understand photographs of the Nazi occupation of Poland as visual artefacts with distinct meanings for their contemporaries in the framework of a specific historical and cultural context. I will discuss how Nazi propaganda deliberately exploited the faith in still photography as a neutral depiction of reality, and the extent of that deceit through photojournalism by the Nazi occupiers of Poland. In addition, I will outline methods through which to evaluate the reliability of photographic sources. For the purposes of reliability and validity, I use a large, randomized sample with all kinds of photographs from archives, libraries and museums in this study.
