  • IS and Cultural Genocide: Antiquities Trafficking in the Terrorist State
    JSOU Report 16-11 IS and Cultural Genocide: Antiquities Trafficking Howard, Elliott, and Prohov and Elliott, JSOUHoward, Report IS and Cultural 16-11 Trafficking Genocide: Antiquities JOINT SPECIAL OPERATIONS UNIVERSITY In IS and Cultural Genocide: Antiquities Trafficking in the Terrorist State, the writing team of Retired Brigadier General Russell Howard, Marc Elliott, and Jonathan Prohov offer compelling research that reminds govern- ment and military officials of the moral, legal, and ethical dimensions of protecting cultural antiquities from looting and illegal trafficking. Internationally, states generally agree on the importance of protecting antiquities, art, and cultural property not only for their historical and artistic importance, but also because such property holds economic, political, and social value for nations and their peoples. Protection is in the common interest because items or sites are linked to the common heritage of mankind. The authors make the point that a principle of international law asserts that cultural or natural elements of humanity’s common heritage should be protected from exploitation and held in trust for future generations. The conflicts in Afghanistan, and especially in Iraq and Syria, coupled with the rise of the Islamic State (IS), have brought renewed attention to the plight of cultural heritage in the Middle East and throughout the world.

August 2013 ABSTRACT From the late 1970s on, as competition intensified, British broadcasters searched for new ways to cover the escalating budgets for top-end drama. A common industry practice, overseas co-productions seems the fitting answer for most broadcasters; for the BBC, however, creating programmes that appeal to both national and international markets could mean being in conflict with its public service ethos. Paradoxes will always be at the heart of an institution that, while pressured to be profitable, also carries a deep-rooted disapproval of commercialism.

The research question addressed is: How have The New Yorker cartoonists’ views of Carroll’s (1991) CSR components changed over time? This study adopts a mixed methods methodology – qualitative visual methods (cartoon analysis) and quantitative counting of instances of presence of certain elements or lack thereof.

  • Looting Matters for Classical Antiquities: Contemporary Issues in Archaeological Ethics
    Present Pasts, Vol. 1, 2009, 77-104, doi:10.5334/pp.14 Looting Matters for Classical Antiquities: Contemporary Issues in Archaeological Ethics DAVID W. J. GILL Swansea University Forty years have passed since the 1970 UNESCO Convention on the Means of Prohib- iting and Preventing the Illicit Import, Export and Transfer of Ownership of Cultural Property. In spite of this there have been major scandals relating to the acquisition of recently-surfaced antiquities by public museums and private individuals. The Italian government has obtained the return of over 100 antiquities from North American col- lections and these have been displayed in a series of high profile exhibitions. Greece and Egypt have made successful claims on other material. Some dealers appear to be willing to handle material that surfaced along similar routes in spite of this increased awareness of the problem of looting. North American museums have now adjusted their acquisition policies to align them with the 1970 Convention. The first decade of the 21st century has seen a major change in the attitude to recently- surfaced antiquities. The seizure of the photographic archive in premises belonging to Gia- como Medici in the Geneva Freeport has allowed Italy to request the return of well over 100 objects (Watson 1997; Watson and Todeschini 2006; Gill and Chippindale 2007b; Silver 2009). A series of high profile North American museums have been handing over millions of dol- lars’ worth of acquisitions without resorting to the courts (Gill and Chippindale 2006; Gill and Chippindale 2007a; Gill and Chippindale 2008; Gill 2009e). The defence that the objects were purchased ‘legally’ whether in Switzerland, the United Kingdom or North America no longer holds.

  • Roz Chast: Cartoon Memoirs, Celebrating Almost Four Decades of Outstanding Artistic Accomplishment
    ROZROZ CHAST: CHAST: CARTOON CARTOON MEMOIRS MEMOIRS . DISTINGUISHED . ILLUSTRATOR . S ERIES . Like many readers of The New Yorker and other popular publications, I have always been drawn to Roz Chast’s singular wit, and look forward to each new cartoon recounting the exploits of characters whom I feel I have come to know. Inspired, as Norman Rockwell was, by life’s small moments, her intelligent, expressive drawings prove that fact can be stranger than fiction, and that one need not go far to find comic relief in our crazy, irrepressible world. Norman Rockwell Museum is honored to present the art of this distinguished illustration master in Roz Chast: Cartoon Memoirs, celebrating almost four decades of outstanding artistic accomplishment. The exhibition offers the first presentation of original works from her acclaimed visual memoir, Can’t We Talk About Something More Pleasant?, which chronicles the lives of her aging parents with heartfelt humor and emotion. The full range of the Chast’s talents and the breadth of her career are also revealed in her legendary cartoons for The New Yorker; book illustrations for Around the Clock, What I Hate from A to Z, Marco Goes to School, and 101 Two-Letter Words, among others; intricately-painted Ukrainian character eggs; and one-of-a-kind hand-made storytelling rugs. The Distinguished Illustrator Exhibition Series honoring the unique contributions of exceptional visual communicators is presented by the Rockwell Center for American Visual Studies, the nation’s first research institute devoted to the art of illustration. The Distinguished Illustrator series reflects the impact and evolution of published art, and of Norman Rockwell’s beloved profession, which remains vibrant and ever-changing.

  • (Italian for “Pity”), Which Depicts the Virgin Mary Holding the Body of Her
    hominisaevum: The Pieta (Italian for “pity”), which depicts the Virgin Mary holding the body of her son Jesus Christ after his death, has been created in many different forms by various painters and sculpture. Of all the great paintings and sculptures on the Pieta the one by Michelangelo stands out from all the rest. Michelangelo was relatively unknown to the world as an artist. He was only 24 when he was formally commissioned on Aug. 27, 1498 by Cardinal Jean Bilheres de Lagraulas, the French king’s envoy to the pope, to do a life size sculpture of the Virgin Mary holding her son in her arms. It was to be unveiled in St. Peter’s Basilica for the Jubilee of 1500. In less than two years Michelangelo carved from a single slab of marble, one of the most magnificent sculptures ever created. His interpretation of the Pieta was far different than ones created previously by other artists. Michelangelo decided to create a youthful, serene and celestial Virgin Mary instead of a broken hearted and somewhat older woman. Tuvo gran afición por la compañía de los animales, como por su perro Terranova «Boatswain», en cuya tumba escribió: Aquí reposan los restos de una criatura que fue bella sin vanidad fuerte sin insolencia, valiente sin ferocidad y tuvo todas las virtudes del hombre y ninguno de sus defectos. Byron, John William Godward - Mischief and Repose [1895] A young woman reclines on a tiger skin on a marble ledge while her companion teases her with a dress pin. They are dressed in diaphanous robes fashioned after chitons worn by women in ancient Greece.

    The Basalt Desert of north-east Jordan is today one of the most thinly populated areas of the Middle East, peopled only by nomads and settled bedouin. It is also one of the richest areas for archaeological remains. Best-known are the immense prehistoric hunting traps, first spotted by RAF pilots in the 1920s, known as ‘kites’ - thousands survive. Scattered at various places amongst these are what appear to be small settlements though some are extensive enough to be thought of as ‘villages’. They often lie on high ground near areas of mud-pan which frequently floods in winter and where water can be conserved by creating deep pits. The ‘huts’ are usually curvilinear. Forms vary but the most striking are Wheel-houses. In their ideal form they consist of a small stone built inner circle (the hub), stone walls radiating outwards from it (spokes) to a large outer stone wall (the rim). In some instances there is a further element: a ring of small circular enclosures. Many others are far more amorphous and have been called ‘Jellyfish’. Some ‘huts’ are as much as 50m in diameter and may date back to the sixth millennium BC. They have been identified widely but this photograph shows one of the most extensive groups on the western side of the Azraq Oasis. The view is north-east (APA05/DG106, 3 October 2005) taken using a Nikon digital SLR. Image and caption courtesy of David Kennedy and Robert Bewley. 5 About 5km due north of Wadi Musa lies the famous Neolithic village of Beidha, tucked away in a bay in the red sandstone hills of Petra and well-known since Diana Kirkbride’s excavations of almost half a century ago.

  • Vietnam, the Draft, and the Columbia Strike
    Chapter 12: Vietnam, the Draft, and the Columbia Strike The thing the Sixties did was to show us the possibilities and the responsibility that we all had. It wasn’t the answer. It just gave us a glimpse of the possibility. John Lennon The American foreign policy trauma of the Sixties and Seventies was caused by applying valid principles to unsuitable conditions. Henry Kissinger1 When great changes occur in history, when great principles are involved, as a rule the majority are wrong. The minority are right. Eugene V. Debs2 The Sixties, of course, was the worst time in the world to try and bring up a child. They were exposed to all these crazy things going on. Nancy Reagan3 A. The War in Vietnam I entered Columbia College in the fall of 1963. President Kennedy was still alive, and while he was alive the war in Vietnam did not seem (from America) like all that big a deal. The prevailing strategy of containment did imply a need to support the anti- Communist government in South Vietnam against what were seen as encroachments 1 He was President Nixon’s National Security Advisor, later Secretary of State, and prime henchman during the war in Vietnam and Cambodia. He said this many years later, in The Guardian, December 16, 1992. 2 Eugene Victor Debs (1855-1926), was the leader of the Socialist Party and its candidate for President four times between 1904 and 1920 (in 1900 he had run as a Social Democrat). In 1918 he made a speech advocating resistance to the wartime draft and was arrested and tried under the Espionage Act.
