  • Historiographical Approaches to Past Archaeological Research
    Historiographical Approaches to Past Archaeological Research Gisela Eberhardt Fabian Link (eds.) BERLIN STUDIES OF THE ANCIENT WORLD has become increasingly diverse in recent years due to developments in the historiography of the sciences and the human- ities. A move away from hagiography and presentations of scientifi c processes as an inevitable progression has been requested in this context. Historians of archae- olo gy have begun to utilize approved and new histo- rio graphical concepts to trace how archaeological knowledge has been acquired as well as to refl ect on the historical conditions and contexts in which knowledge has been generated. This volume seeks to contribute to this trend. By linking theories and models with case studies from the nineteenth and twentieth century, the authors illuminate implications of communication on archaeological knowledge and scrutinize routines of early archaeological practices. The usefulness of di erent approaches such as narratological concepts or the concepts of habitus is thus considered. berlin studies of 32 the ancient world berlin studies of the ancient world · 32 edited by topoi excellence cluster Historiographical Approaches to Past Archaeological Research edited by Gisela Eberhardt Fabian Link Bibliographic information published by the Deutsche Nationalbibliothek The Deutsche Nationalbibliothek lists this publication in the Deutsche Nationalbibliographie; detailed bibliographic data are available in the Internet at http://dnb.d-nb.de. © 2015 Edition Topoi / Exzellenzcluster Topoi der Freien Universität Berlin und der Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin Typographic concept and cover design: Stephan Fiedler Printed and distributed by PRO BUSINESS digital printing Deutschland GmbH, Berlin ISBN 978-3-9816384-1-7 URN urn:nbn:de:kobv:11-100233492 First published 2015 The text of this publication is licensed under Creative Commons BY-NC 3.0 DE.

  • Hermann Burmeister (1807–1891)
    CHAPTER FOUR HERMANN BURMEISTER (1807–1891) Karl Hermann Konrad Burmeister was born in 1807 in the Prussian Baltic port of Stralsund, until 1815 a Swedish possession.1 In 1827 he began his studies in Halle, under the direction of celebrated physician and botanist Kurt Sprengel (1766–1833). He was awarded his M.D. in 1829 with a the- sis on insect taxonomy. Shortly thereafter, he gained his Ph.D., present- ing an overview of fijish anatomy. The following year he moved to Berlin, taking up a post as surgeon to the Kaiser Franz Grenadier Regiment. He apparently hoped, ultimately, to serve as a military surgeon in the tropics, perhaps in the Dutch East Indies. When this ambition was thwarted, he abandoned medical practice in favor of natural history, remaining in Ber- lin, in close proximity to his friend Alexander von Humboldt. He lectured in Berlin Gymnasien [preparatory schools] then at the University, from 1831 to 1837, when he returned to the University of Halle-Wittenberg, fijirst as Lecturer, then Professor of Zoology. His charge included the Univer- sity’s museum, whose collections expanded greatly under his direction. 1843 saw the fijirst publication of his great Geschichte der Schöpfung [His- tory of Creation], destined to go through several editions in both Ger- man and French. In scope and spirit, the fijirst edition of this work is in many respects a precursor to Humboldt’s Cosmos. The French translation (1870) of the eighth edition of 1867 would contribute greatly to Burmeis- ter’s reputation in Argentina, since at the time few intellectuals could read German, but most knew French.

  • F. Christian Thompson Neal L. Evenhuis and Curtis W. Sabrosky Bibliography of the Family-Group Names of Diptera
    F. Christian Thompson Neal L. Evenhuis and Curtis W. Sabrosky Bibliography of the Family-Group Names of Diptera Bibliography Thompson, F. C, Evenhuis, N. L. & Sabrosky, C. W. The following bibliography gives full references to 2,982 works cited in the catalog as well as additional ones cited within the bibliography. A concerted effort was made to examine as many of the cited references as possible in order to ensure accurate citation of authorship, date, title, and pagination. References are listed alphabetically by author and chronologically for multiple articles with the same authorship. In cases where more than one article was published by an author(s) in a particular year, a suffix letter follows the year (letters are listed alphabetically according to publication chronology). Authors' names: Names of authors are cited in the bibliography the same as they are in the text for proper association of literature citations with entries in the catalog. Because of the differing treatments of names, especially those containing articles such as "de," "del," "van," "Le," etc., these names are cross-indexed in the bibliography under the various ways in which they may be treated elsewhere. For Russian and other names in Cyrillic and other non-Latin character sets, we follow the spelling used by the authors themselves. Dates of publication: Dating of these works was obtained through various methods in order to obtain as accurate a date of publication as possible for purposes of priority in nomenclature. Dates found in the original works or by outside evidence are placed in brackets after the literature citation.

  • Anthropology, Race, and Nation in the Literature of the River Plate, 1870-2010
    “Somos una raza privilegiada:” Anthropology, Race, and Nation in the Literature of the River Plate, 1870-2010 Ashley Elizabeth Kerr Charlottesville, Virginia Master of Arts in Spanish, University of Virginia, 2009 Bachelor of Arts in Latin American Studies, Middlebury College, 2006 A Dissertation Presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Spanish, Italian, and Portuguese University of Virginia August, 2013 © Copyright by Ashley Elizabeth Kerr All Rights Reserved August 2013 i Abstract This study examines the ways in which ethnographic and anthropological theories of race arise and evolve in the literature of the River Plate (travel literature, the novel, poetry, scientific discourse), ca. 1870-2010, through the prism of critical gender and race theory. Beyond presenting potential solutions to the cuestión del indio, concepts such as prehistory, degeneration, evolution, and miscegenation enabled positive representations of the criollo that directly addressed criticisms emanating from both within and outside of the region. Thus, ethnography and anthropology were fundamental to the forging of national, group, and individual identities. The authors studied in the first three chapters are canonical, forgotten, and best-sellers in turn, including Lucio V. Mansilla, Juan Zorrilla de San Martín, Eduardo L. Holmberg, Francisco “Perito” Moreno, Vicente Fidel López, and Clemente Onelli. Although their focuses were distinct, as a whole these texts work to laud the Creole as fit, fertile, and White, while erasing the Indian from the nation due to their alleged innate, or racial, inferiority. The fourth and final chapter is devoted to contemporary romance novels by Florencia Bonelli and Gloria Casañas that aim to subvert and/or repurpose the concepts and ideologies analyzed in the first three chapters.

The South American Mammal collection at the Museo Geologico Giovanni Capellini (Bologna, Italy) Colligo, 3(3). https://perma.cc/UF7Y-ZFWQ Summary: Near the end of the 19th century, Professor Giovanni Capellini KEY-WORDS acquired a rich collection of fossil mammal remains from South America, Giovanni Capellini which became part of the permanent exhibit in the Museum that bears his Florentino Ameghino name. We investigate the private correspondence of G. Capellini, in order Hermann Burmeister to collect historical data on the collection. This correspondence includes a 19th century letter from Florentino Ameghino, which proves that he was born in Mo- historical collection neglia (Genova), Italy. Combining results from the letters found and the Paleontology revision of the taxonomy of the specimens, we conclude that most of the correspondence collection was probably sent from Argentina by the German zoologist Carl Hermann Conrad Burmeister between 1863 and 1866.

Adult Leptodactylus mystacinus are of mod- erate size, the head is as wide as long, and the hind limbs are moderately short (see Table; Heyer and Thompson 2000 pro- vided definitions of adult size and leg length categories for Leptodactylus). Male vocal sacs are not visible externally or at best are weakly expanded laterally and shghtly darker than fe- male throats. Male snouts ai'e more spatulate than those of fe- males. Male forearms are not hypertrophied. Males lack asperi- ties on the thumbs and chest. One or two pairs of dorsolateral folds (indicated by dark/light outlining in indifferently preserved MAP. Distribution of Leptodactylus mystacinus. The type locality is o specimens) are present: one distinct more dorsal pair extends indicated by a circle. Dots mark other localities. A dot may represent from behind the eye (often with a gap with the fold beginning at more than one site. Published locality data used to generate the map a level above the tympanum) to the upper groin; a second pair, should be considered as secondary sources of information, as we did either complete or interrupted, extends from above the forearm not confirm all specimen identities.

    Rev33-01 16/3/09 14:19 Página 89 Sandra Carreras* ➲ Una carrera científica entre Prusia y Argentina: el itinerario de Hermann Burmeister En 1861 Hermann Burmeister, quien por entonces tenía 55 años de edad y ya había desarrollado una importante carrera científica en su país, renunció a su cargo de catedrá- tico de Zoología de la Universidad de Halle para hacerse cargo de la dirección del Museo Público de Buenos Aires, posición en la que permaneció hasta su muerte, ocurrida en 1892. A su funeral, que fue costeado por el Estado, asistieron el presidente de la nación, Carlos Pellegrini, varios miembros de su gabinete y representantes de las principales ins- tituciones científicas del país. Pocos años después se aprobó una ley que ordenaba la construcción de un monumento en su honor, el cual fue inaugurado en 1900. Semejantes honores dedicados a un científico extranjero no eran habituales en la vida pública de la Argentina de aquellos años. ¿Cómo se explica entonces que Burmeis- ter recibiera tanto reconocimiento? Un primer indicio para responder esta pregunta puede hallarse en las reflexiones que Ángel Gallardo, uno de los sucesores de Burmeister en la dirección del museo, expuso en 1916 en el prólogo de la traducción al castellano de una de las obras de éste: La muerte sella y consagra la nacionalidad adoptiva y en cierto modo se muere por la nueva patria, en la cual se ha formado un hogar y a la que pertenecen los hijos y la obra. Los últimos treinta años de la fecunda vida del doctor Burmeister pueden considerarse pues los de un sabio argentino (Gallardo 1916: 10).

  • Between Art and Science
    ABSTRACT W. H . HUDSON BETWEEN ART AND SCIENCE by Joshua Imhoff William Henry Hudson is known best as the author of romances set in South America, essays praising the English countryside, and as a devoted bird preservationist. Yet few realize that Hudson spent the first ten years of his adulthood as a bird collector and amateur scientist in the wilds of his homeland, Argentina. Using a biographical approach, this thesis focuses on Hudson’s early career as a naturalist. It will examine his role within the scientific community to contextualize the increased professionalization of science during the mid-nineteenth century, concentrating on the tension between observation- based naturalists and society-based professional scientists. W. H. Hudson: Between Art and Science A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Miami University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Arts Department of History by Joshua L Imhoff Miami University Oxford, Ohio 2009 Advisor__________________________ Andrew Cayton Reader____________________________ Kimberly Hamlin Reader____________________________ Kevin Armitage Table of Contents Chapter 1: Introduction 1 Chapter 2: Preparations 7 Chapter 3: Correspondence 16 Chapter 4: Hudson in London 31 Chapter 5: Conclusion 41 Bibliography 43 ii Chapter 1: Introduction In 1870, the Proceedings of the Zoological Society of London published a letter by a young naturalist from Argentina, William Henry Hudson. The letter claimed that Charles Darwin, the most eminent naturalist of the age, misrepresented the habits of an Argentine woodpecker in his work The Origin of Species. Darwin wrote that the woodpecker never visited trees and had adapted to life on the treeless Pampas of Argentina.
