  • Race and Transnationalism in the First Syrian-American Community, 1890-1930
    Abstract Title of Thesis: RACE ACROSS BORDERS: RACE AND TRANSNATIONALISM IN THE FIRST SYRIAN-AMERICAN COMMUNITY, 1890-1930 Zeinab Emad Abrahim, Master of Arts, 2013 Thesis Directed By: Professor, Madeline Zilfi Department of History This research explores the transnational nature of the citizenship campaign amongst the first Syrian Americans, by analyzing the communication between Syrians in the United States with Syrians in the Middle East, primarily Jurji Zaydan, a Middle-Eastern anthropologist and literary figure. The goal is to demonstrate that while Syrian Americans negotiated their racial identity in the United States in order to attain the right to naturalize, they did so within a transnational framework. Placing the Syrian citizenship struggle in a larger context brings to light many issues regarding national and racial identity in both the United States and the Middle East during the turn of the twentieth century.

McWeeny Dean, College of Fine Arts 3 ABSTRACT GUSTAFSON, ADAM R., Ph.D., June 2011, Interdisciplinary Arts The Artistic Patronage of Albrecht V and the Creation of Catholic Identity in Sixteenth- Century Bavaria Director of Dissertation: Dora Wilson Drawing from a number of artistic media, this dissertation is an interdisciplinary approach for understanding how artworks created under the patronage of Albrecht V were used to shape Catholic identity in Bavaria during the establishment of confessional boundaries in late sixteenth-century Europe. This study presents a methodological framework for understanding early modern patronage in which the arts are necessarily viewed as interconnected, and patronage is understood as a complex and often contradictory process that involved all elements of society. First, this study examines the legacy of arts patronage that Albrecht V inherited from his Wittelsbach predecessors and developed during his reign, from 1550-1579. Albrecht V‟s patronage is then divided into three areas: northern princely humanism, traditional religion and sociological propaganda.

Introduction The transition from a British ‘trading-post empire’ in Asia and Africa to an empire forged by annexation is well enough known, as is the institutional alliance between ‘commerce and Christianity’ that accompanied that transition, and many historians have drawn connections between the two.1 Scholars have also observed the centrality of the Bible to British Protestantism: by identifying denominational variants in Bible-reading, con- necting commercial family bibles with Victorian domesticity, and comparing British and German Old Testament criticism.2 This article asks how Victorians made sense of their empire by referring to the Bible, one of their most important travelling companions.

  • 1 the History of Transdisciplinary Race Classification
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Portsmouth University Research Portal (Pure) The history of transdisciplinary race classification: methods, politics and institutions, 1840s-1940s Richard McMahon* Abstract A recently blossoming historiographical literature recognises that physical anthropologists allied with scholars of diverse aspects of society and history to racially classify European peoples over a period of about 100 years. They created three successive race classification coalitions – ethnology, from around 1840, anthropology, from the 1850s, and interwar raciology, each of which successively disintegrated. The present genealogical study argues that representing these coalitions as ‘transdisciplinary’ can enrich our understanding of challenges to disciplinary specialisation. This is especially the case for the less well-studied nineteenth century, when disciplines and challenges to disciplinary specialisation were both gradually emerging. Like Marxism or structuralism, race classification was a holistic interpretive framework, which, at its most ambitious, aimed to structure the human sciences as a whole. It resisted the organisation of academia and knowledge into disciplines with separate organisational institutions and research practices. However, the ‘transdisciplinarity’ of this nationalistic project also bridged emerging borderlines between science and politics. I ascribe race classification’s simultaneous longevity and instability to its complex and intricately entwined

    Filosofia Theoretica: Journal of African Philosophy, Culture and Religions 19 Page Vol. 4 No. 2 July – December, 2015 APPIAH ON RACE AND IDENTITY IN THE ILLUSIONS OF RACE: A REJOINDER DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4314/ft.v4i2.2 David A. OYEDOLA Department of Philosophy, Obafemi Awolowo University,Ile-Ife, Nigeria Abstract Whether Appiah’s concession in [The Illusions of Race, 1992] that there are no races can stand vis-a-vis Masolo’s submission in “African Philosophy and the Postcolonial: some Misleading Abstractions about Identity” (1997) that identity is impossible , it is worthy to note that much of what is entailed in human societies tend toward the exaltation and protection of self-interest. Self-interest, as it is related to particular or individual entities, to a great extent, presupposes the ontology of different races and identities. Paul Taylor in “Appiah’s Uncompleted Argument: W.E.B. Du Bois and the Reality of Race,” to begin with, asserts that races and identity struggles are real entities as individuals’ : where this can be said to aid and abet racial differences. Though, there are those who lend credence to Appiah’s and Masolo’s explications like Hountondji and Gyekye; however, it is noteworthy that philosophers like Du Bois, Nkrumah, Fanon, Mandela, Senghor, Hallen and Cabral who, in one way or the other, lend credence to Taylor’s claim, could not have said so without taking into consideration, the colonial and anthropological experiences which has, in one way or the other, has affected Africa and Africans. Despite the latter, certain flaws like (i) the failure to acknowledge the utility and global importance of human race or family, and (ii) the failure to recognize the distinctiveness of each existing race, tribe or ethnicities in a diverse political, religious, and culture-biased world, are inherent in Taylor’s, Appiah’s and Masolo’s views coupled with those who lend credence to their views.

GARRETT DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Texas at Arlington August, 2016 Supervising Committee: Kenyon Zimmer, Supervising Professor Sarah Rose Robert B. Fairbanks Copyright © by Bryan A. Garrett 2016 All Rights Reserved ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS August 8, 2016 Though writing can be a lonely process, this dissertation represents a collaborative effort. There are many I would like to thank for their contribution to this work. I am grateful to my dissertation advisor, Kenyon Zimmer, who tirelessly scoured my work in its most disjointed state and provided fresh eyes when mine faltered. He has helped to make the dissertation worth writing, and despite my best efforts, hopefully easier to read. Students of all levels, but especially doctoral candidates at the University of Texas at Arlington, should count themselves fortunate to have Kenyon as their advocate and advisor. I would also like to thank the other members of the dissertation committee, Sarah Rose and Robert Fairbanks, for their advice in providing me new avenues for exploration and their suggestions for improving the document as a whole. I am indebted to Mustaq Ahmad and the Festival of Ideas Global Research Institute for providing the support necessary to undertake research at numerous archives on multiple continents. Any researcher knows the tremendous expense in time and money required for just one trip, but undertaking a number of them can only be done with the support of generous sponsors who share in the pursuit to understand and appreciate the past more fully.

Pavel Duda Supervisor: prof. RNDr. Jan Zrzavý, CSc. Department of Zoology, Faculty of Science, University of South Bohemia České Budějovice 2017 This thesis should be cited as: Duda, P. 2017: Human population history and evolution of culture: A phylogenetic approach, Ph.D. Thesis. University of South Bohemia, Faculty of Science, School of Doctoral Studies in Biological Sciences, České Budějovice, Czech Republic, 263 pp. Annotation This thesis uses phylogenetic and phylogenetic comparative methods to investigate human population history and evolution of cross-cultural variation. Such research requires a robust phylogenetic hypothesis of human populations as a framework. This thesis uses a supertree approach to infer a composite phylogeny of human populations based on published phylogenetic trees based on genetic and linguistic data. It assesses the stability of the inferred supertree topology and identifies individual populations whose phylogenetic position is particularly unstable. It assesses the congruence between genetic and linguistic data and tests hypothesis about language relationships and coevolution between genes and languages on a global scale. The supertree is used to reconstruct the origin and evolution of religious beliefs and behaviors using a global sample of hunter-gatherer populations and a set of phylogenetic comparative methods. This thesis also describes evolution of Central African pygmies, a group of human populations that represents an interesting case of morphological and cultural adaptation in human species, and reviews the history and current developments of phylogenetic (tree building) approaches to cross-cultural variation.
