  • Unforgettable Landscapes
    Unforgettable Landscapes: Attachments to the Past in Hellenistic Armenia Lori Khatchadourian Historical cartographers are quintessential memory specialists. Given the task of determining the relative importance of one hamlet, village, town, or city from another, those who map the past exercise the right to erase the memory of a place itself, along with the memories of the peoples, histories, and monuments through which that place was constituted. As reviewers of the Barrington Atlas of the Greek and Roman World recently wrote, “all maps—in one way or another, aggressively or unconsciously—‘lie’ to us” (Alcock, Dey and Parker 2001, 458). This discriminating duty of the cartographer, when paired with the narrow approach of traditional classical scholarship on the Near East during the Hellenistic era (ca. 323-31 BC), has resulted in rather peculiar maps of the period: undiscovered places that are mentioned in Greek and Roman sources are marked, while archaeological sites whose names do not appear in this particular body of literature are not. The dominant narrative concerning the Hellenistic Near East has radically privileged cities thought to have been havens of Hellenism, due to the celebrated works of Greek art their inhabitants produced. For the student of classical archaeology, the likely impression of the Near East in the enigmatic period between the collapse of the Persian Empire and the rise of the Roman Empire is like that of a photograph with well-focused, fore grounded, Hellenized hubs—such as Pergamon, Antioch, Ephasos—set against a soft-focused, hazy background of 1 places that were perhaps touched by the ripple effects of Hellenism, or stagnantly persisted as vestigially Persian.

  • Dressing for the Times: Fashion in Tang Dynasty China (618-907)
    Dressing for the Times: Fashion in Tang Dynasty China (618-907) BuYun Chen Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2013 © 2013 BuYun Chen All rights reserved ABSTRACT Dressing for the Times: Fashion in Tang Dynasty China (618-907) BuYun Chen During the Tang dynasty, an increased capacity for change created a new value system predicated on the accumulation of wealth and the obsolescence of things that is best understood as fashion. Increased wealth among Tang elites was paralleled by a greater investment in clothes, which imbued clothes with new meaning. Intellectuals, who viewed heightened commercial activity and social mobility as symptomatic of an unstable society, found such profound changes in the vestimentary landscape unsettling. For them, a range of troubling developments, including crisis in the central government, deep suspicion of the newly empowered military and professional class, and anxiety about waste and obsolescence were all subsumed under the trope of fashionable dressing. The clamor of these intellectuals about the widespread desire to be “current” reveals the significant space fashion inhabited in the empire – a space that was repeatedly gendered female. This dissertation considers fashion as a system of social practices that is governed by material relations – a system that is also embroiled in the politics of the gendered self and the body. I demonstrate that this notion of fashion is the best way to understand the process through which competition for status and self-identification among elites gradually broke away from the imperial court and its system of official ranks.

  • The Fiction of Gothic Egypt and British Imperial Paranoia: the Curse of the Suez Canal
    The Fiction of Gothic Egypt and British Imperial Paranoia: The Curse of the Suez Canal AILISE BULFIN Trinity College, Dublin “Ah, my nineteenth-century friend, your father stole me from the land of my birth, and from the resting place the gods decreed for me; but beware, for retribution is pursuing you, and is even now close upon your heels.” —Guy Boothby, Pharos the Egyptian, 1899 What of this piercing of the sands? What of this union of the seas?… What good or ill from LESSEPS’ cut Eastward and Westward shall proceed? —“Latest—From the Sphinx,” Punch, 57 (27 November 1869), 210 IN 1859 FERDINAND DE LESSEPS began his great endeavour to sunder the isthmus of Suez and connect the Mediterranean with the Red Sea, the Occident with the Orient, simultaneously altering the ge- ography of the earth and irrevocably upsetting the precarious global balance of power. Ten years later the eyes of the world were upon Egypt as the Suez Canal was inaugurated amidst extravagant Franco-Egyp- tian celebrations in which a glittering cast of international dignitar- ies participated. That the opening of the canal would be momentous was acknowledged at the time, though the nature of its impact was a matter for speculation, as the question posed above by Punch implies. While its codevelopers France and Egypt pinned great hopes on the ca- nal, Britain was understandably suspicious of an endeavor that could potentially undermine its global imperial dominance—it would bring India nearer, but also make it more vulnerable to rival powers.

  • Book Section Reprint the STRUGGLE for TROGLODYTES1
    The RELICT HOMINOID INQUIRY 6:33-170 (2017) Book Section Reprint THE STRUGGLE FOR TROGLODYTES1 Boris Porshnev "I have no doubt that some fact may appear fantastic and incredible to many of my readers. For example, did anyone believe in the existence of Ethiopians before seeing any? Isn't anything seen for the first time astounding? How many things are thought possible only after they have been achieved?" (Pliny, Natural History of Animals, Vol. VII, 1) INTRODUCTION BERNARD HEUVELMANS Doctor in Zoological Sciences How did I come to study animals, and from the study of animals known to science, how did I go on to that of still undiscovered animals, and finally, more specifically to that of unknown humans? It's a long story. For me, everything started a long time ago, so long ago that I couldn't say exactly when. Of course it happened gradually. Actually – I have said this often – one is born a zoologist, one does not become one. However, for the discipline to which I finally ended up fully devoting myself, it's different: one becomes a cryptozoologist. Let's specify right now that while Cryptozoology is, etymologically, "the science of hidden animals", it is in practice the study and research of animal species whose existence, for lack of a specimen or of sufficient anatomical fragments, has not been officially recognized. I should clarify what I mean when I say "one is born a zoologist. Such a congenital vocation would imply some genetic process, such as that which leads to a lineage of musicians or mathematicians.

A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE HEADSCARF IN FRANCE, TURKEY, AND THE UNITED STATES BY HERA HASHMI* INTRODUCTION In July 2009, a man stabbed and killed a pregnant woman wearing a headscarf in a German courtroom during an appellate trial for his Islamophobic remarks against her.1 Her death led to outrage around the world, and she became known as the "martyr of the veil," a woman killed for her religious belief.2 Yet it was just a simple piece of cloth that evoked this violent reaction. Such Islamaphobic sentiments seem to be spreading throughout various parts of the world. In 2004, France banned headscarves and all conspicuous religious symbols from public classrooms.3 In 2005, the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR)4 upheld Turkey's headscarf ban barring thousands of headscarf-wearing women from attending schools, universities, and entering government buildings in a country where a majority of the population is Muslim.

  • Understanding Regional Dispersion of Police- Recorded Crimes in Turkey from the Routine Activities Theory Perspective
    UNDERSTANDING REGIONAL DISPERSION OF POLICE- RECORDED CRIMES IN TURKEY FROM THE ROUTINE ACTIVITIES THEORY PERSPECTIVE Türkiye'de Polise Kayıtlı Suçların Rutin Aktiviteler Teorisi Açısından Bölgesel Dağılımı Tuba TOPÇUOĞLU* Özet u çalışma, 2004 ve 2006 yıllarına ait polis kayıtlarını kullanarak Bhırsızlık, gasp, cinayet vc yaralama/darp olaylarının Türkiye'deki coğrafi dağılışını inceleyip sosyal çevrenin bu dağılışa etkisini anlamaya katkıda bulunmayı amaçlamıştır. Belirtilen her suç kategorisi için iller üç gruba ayrılmış (düşük suç oranı, orta suç oranı, yüksek suç oranı) ve sonrasında rutin aktiviteler teorisi ışığında iller arasındaki yapısal farklılıkların bu gruplar arasındaki suç oranı farklılıklarını açıklamaya etkisi incelenmiştir. Sonuçlar, incelenen teorik model ile kısmen uyumludur. Bulgulara göre hırsızlık ve gasp suçları hem coğrafi dağılım hem de belirleyici etkenler açısından benzerlik göstermektedir. Hedef uygunluğu (kişi başı gayrî safi yurt içi hasıla ve sanayileşme düzeyi) ve korumacılığın (hane halkı sayısı ve işsizlik oranı) ölçümünde kullanılan değişkenler bu suçların dağılımını belirleyen en güçlü etkenler olmuştur. Kişiye karşı suçların ise farklı etiyolojisi var görünmektedir. Korumacılık (işsizlik oranı ve hane halkı sayısı) ve maruz kalma (şehirleşme oranı) ölçümü için kullanılan değişkenler yaralama/darp suçlarının dağılımını belirleyen en güçlü etkenler iken, kullanılan hiçbir değişken cinayet suçlarının dağılımını yeterli ölçüde açıklayamamıştır. Bu bulgular hem araştırmanın kusurları hem de sonraki araştırmalar
