Here Referred to As Class 18A (See Hyman 1980:187)
WS1 Remarks on the nasal classes in Mungbam and Naki Mungbam and Naki are two non-Grassfields Bantoid languages spoken along the northwest frontier of the Grassfields area to the north of the Ring languages. Until recently, they were poorly described, but new data reveals them to show significant nasal noun class patterns, some of which do not appear to have been previously noted for Bantoid. The key patterns are: 1. Like many other languages of their region (see Good et al. 2011), they make productive use of a mysterious diminutive plural prefix with a form like mu-, with associated concords in m, here referred to as Class 18a (see Hyman 1980:187). 2. The five dialects of Mungbam show a level of variation in their nasal classes that one might normally expect of distinct languages. a. Two dialects show no evidence for nasals in Class 6. Two other dialects, Munken and Ngun, show a Class 6 prefix on nouns of form a- but nasal concords. In Munken Class 6, this nasal is n, clearly distinct from an m associated with 6a; in Ngun, both 6 and 6a are associated with m concords. The Abar dialect shows a different pattern, with Class 6 nasal concords in m and nasal prefixes on some Class 6 nouns. b. The Abar, Biya, and Ngun dialects show a Class 18a prefix with form mN-, rather than the more regionally common mu-. This reduction is presumably connected to perseveratory nasalization attested throughout the languages of the region with a diachronic pathway along the lines of mu- > mũ- > mN- perhaps providing a partial example for the development of Bantu Class 9/10. -
A Very Short History of Cyberpunk
A Very Short History of Cyberpunk Marcus Janni Pivato Many people seem to think that William Gibson invented The cyberpunk genre in 1984, but in fact the cyberpunk aesthetic was alive well before Neuromancer (1984). For example, in my opinion, Ridley Scott's 1982 movie, Blade Runner, captures the quintessence of the cyberpunk aesthetic: a juxtaposition of high technology with social decay as a troubling allegory of the relationship between humanity and machines ---in particular, artificially intelligent machines. I believe the aesthetic of the movie originates from Scott's own vision, because I didn't really find it in the Philip K. Dick's novel, Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep (1968), upon which the movie is (very loosely) based. Neuromancer made a big splash not because it was the "first" cyberpunk novel, but rather, because it perfectly captured the Zeitgeist of anxiety and wonder that prevailed at the dawning of the present era of globalized economics, digital telecommunications, and exponential technological progress --things which we now take for granted but which, in the early 1980s were still new and frightening. For example, Gibson's novels exhibit a fascination with the "Japanification" of Western culture --then a major concern, but now a forgotten and laughable anxiety. This is also visible in the futuristic Los Angeles of Scott’s Blade Runner. Another early cyberpunk author is K.W. Jeter, whose imaginative and disturbing novels Dr. Adder (1984) and The Glass Hammer (1985) exemplify the dark underside of the genre. Some people also identify Rudy Rucker and Bruce Sterling as progenitors of cyberpunk. -

Youth Uprising the Lettrist Alternative to Post-War Trauma
Please, return this text to box no. 403 available at museoreinasofia.es Youth Uprising The Lettrist Alternative to Post-War Trauma Lettrism was the first art movement after the Second World War to reintroduce the radicalism of the first avant-garde trends, particularly Dada and Surrealism, and became a communicating vessel for the Neo-avant- garde trends that followed. Lettrism is conceived as a total creative movement, a movement that doesn’t forsake any medium or field of action: poetry, music, film, visual arts or drama. Isou managed to place Lettrism ‘at the vanguard of the avant-garde,’ in contrast with the decline of Dada and Surrealism. During this period Lettrism acquired the true dimension of a group, although the first differences appeared almost at once, producing a split that some years later and in concurrence with other cells of rebe- llious creativity would give rise to the Si- tuationist International. By order of mem- bership, the individuals who joined the first Lettrism is one of the few avant-garde isms that still have a secret history. With the ex- Lettrist group included Gabriel Pomerand, ception of France, its native and almost exclusive soil (radiant Paris, to be more precise), François Dufrêne, Gil Joseph Wolman, the movement was only known superficially, remotely and partially. Ironically, Lettrism Jean-Louis Brau, Serge Berna, Marc’O, is often referred to as an episode prior to Situationism, given the mutual disdain and the Maurice Lemaître, Guy-Ernest Debord, ruthless insults the groups levelled at each other. Furthermore, it is a very complex move- Yolande du Luart and Poucette. -

These chiefly support our dissertation, research and publication grants, our travel grants for modern topics, February 15, 2019 programs like Emerging Scholars workshops, and the cost of networking and social events including receptions. The costs Dear Members of the Italian Art Society: of events, especially, have risen dramatically in recent years, especially as these have largely been organized at CAA and I have generally used these messages to RSA, usually in expensive cities and often at even more promote upcoming programing and events, to call expensive conference hotels. The cost of even one reception attention to recent awards, and to summarize all the in New York, for example, can quickly balloon to activities we regularly support. There are certainly no overshadow our financial support of scholarship. It will be a shortage of such announcements in the near future and significant task for my successor and our entire executive I’m certain that my successor Mark Rosen will have committee to strategize for how we might respond to rising quite a bit to report soon, including our speaker for the costs and how we can best use our limited resources to best 2019 IAS/Kress lecture in Milan.

69. Il Novecento (15)
Blitz nell’arte figurativa 69. Il Novecento (15) Il linguaggio figurativo trovò maggiore spazio nell’Espressionismo, opponendosi al Dada che tanta parte ebbe, e ha tuttora, nell’arte moderna, soprattutto in versione Surrealista. Però, la figurazione adattata ai nuovi concetti si caricò di una responsabilità che appare superiore a quella dei tardi dadaisti. In particolare modo, gli Espressionisti moderni, attivi fra le due guerre mondiali e maggiormente dopo la Seconda, cercarono punti di riferimento precisi, sconosciuti ai cultori dell’onirismo. Questi ultimi hanno avuto, e hanno ancora, il pregio di presentare varie suggestioni e dunque varie possibilità di aprirsi a un reale privo di finalismo e di determinismo. La relatività delle cose non è un vicolo cieco, bensì la chance di aprire nuovi orizzonti. Come rovescio della medaglia, abbiamo spesso una sorta di resa a questo programma che, infatti, diventa un manierismo destinato all’inefficienza. Il linguaggio figurativo tradizionale è invece costretto a cercare punti di appoggio e, insieme a una specie di possibile chiusura, esso offre visioni che richiedono profonde riflessioni: magari banali anche nella consistenza, talvolta però più incisive e prolifiche di quanto costatabile e ipotizzabile. Si dimostra che la manipolazione della figura, fatta non a caso, fatta cioè non seguendo il mito del gesto, può arricchire la dinamicità dell’alfabeto usato dalle arti figurative dalla notte dei tempi. A questo punto, ispirazione Dada e rigore analitico perseguito con mezzi classici, trovano contatti, pur se solo raramente riescono a condizionarsi a vicenda. La finalità è la conoscenza possibile e probabile. Si tratta di una conoscenza nuova che chiama in causa l’intera personalità umana scaturita da esperienze pratiche, molto avanzate rispetto al passato, e da interrogativi sentimentali eterni che ora reclamano una risposta: talvolta, negli animi più sensibili e attenti, in modo disperato, per quanto mascherato da una sicurezza formale o semplicemente esecutiva. -
