  • Baron Munchhausen and the Syndrome Which Bears His Name: History of an Endearing Personage and of a Strange Mental Disorder
    Baron Munchhausen and the syndrom which bears his name, Vesalius, VIII, 1, 53 - 57, 2002 Baron Munchhausen and the Syndrome Which Bears His Name: History of an Endearing Personage and of a Strange Mental Disorder R. Olry Summary Munchausen syndrome, a mental disorder, was named in 1951 by Richard Asher after Karl Fried rich Hieronymus, Baron Munchhausen (1720-1797), whose name had become proverbial as the nar- rator of false and ridiculously exaggerated exploits. The first edition of Munchausen's tales ap- peared anonymously in 1785 (Baron Munchausen's narrative of his marvellous travels and cam- paigns in Russia), and was wrongly attributed to the German poet Gottfried August Burger who actually edited the first German version the following year. The real author, Rudolph Erich Raspe, never claimed his rights over the successive editions of this book. This paper reviews the extraor- dinary personality of Baron Munchhausen, and the circumstances which led Rudolph Erich Raspe, Gottfried August Burger, and Richard Asher to pay homage to this very endearing personage. Résumé Le syndrome de Munchausen est un trouble psychologique ainsi baptisé en 1951 par Richard Asher, en hommage à Karl Friedrich Hieronymus, baron de Munchhausen (1720-1779), qui s'était rendu célèbre parla narration de ses exploits extravagants. La première édition des aventures de Munch- hausen apparu anonymement en 1785 (Baron Munchausen's narrative ofhis marvellous travels and campaigns in Russia), et fut attribuée à tort au poète allemand Gottfried August Bûrger, celui qui en réalité édita la première traduction allemande l'année suivante. Le véritable auteur, Rudolph Erich Raspe, ne réclama jamais ses droits sur les éditions successives de ce livre.

  • 1 Herakleios' Handlebar: Contextualizing a Change in Imperial
    1 Herakleios’ Handlebar: Contextualizing a Change in Imperial Imagery Joel DowlingSoka A paper presented on November 3, 2012 at the Byzantine Studies Conference In 629 CE, the Emperor Herakleios, finally at peace after decades of war with Khusrow II, grew out his beard. Where he had previously worn a close cut beard, his new whiskers were significantly more imposing.1 They reached down to the middle of his chest and were topped by a handlebar moustache that seems to have been helped along with a good deal of wax. This appearance of the emperor is idiosyncratic for a Roman ruler, to say the least, and represents a dramatic departure from the previous centuries of imperial representation. However, scholarly analysis of Heraclius’ post-629 imperial image has mostly ignored the potential ramifications of this change. There have been a few explanations that focus on a new tendency in the seventh century towards portraiture on coinage. For example, Phillip Grierson, in Byzantine Coins, suggested that the image was either Herakleios reverting to a more youthful hairstyle that he had worn before he became emperor or that the hair had grown out on campaign and he “preferred it that way.2 Taking an almost polar opposite position, Walter Kaegi read the new appearance on the coinage as “reflecting aging and fatigue.”3 This latter description may be accurate enough, Herakleios was getting older, but why did he choose to show the entire empire his age with an image so different from prior Roman images? None of the explanations explain why Herakleios would decide to change his appearance in such a revolutionary way.

  • Representations of Ottoman Masculinity in Kesik Bıyık1
    Modernity as an Ottoman Fetish: Representations of Ottoman Masculinity in Kesik Bıyık1 Müge Özoğlu PhD Student, Centre for the Arts in Society, Universiteit Leiden Abstract Because masculinity was a central part of Ottoman culture and politics, changes in these domains had a fundamental impact on discussions about masculinity. At the turn of the twentieth century, the Ottoman Empire’s dominant role in world politics began to weaken due to the increasing influence of modernity. This generated socio-political anxieties. Ömer Seyfettin’s short story, Kesik Bıyık (Trimmed Moustache), is a good example to use when discussing the influence of modernity in relation to the issue of masculinity. The transformation of a moustache into a fetish object can be read as an allegory of the Empire’s socio-political anxieties caused by the process of modernisation. This paper discusses the way in which Kesik Bıyık allegorically represents the Ottoman Empire’s socio-political anxieties as castration anxiety, and how modernity becomes a fetish throughout the narrative. Key words: castration anxiety, modernity, fetishism, Ottoman- Turkish literature, Ömer Seyfettin -Masculinities- A Journal of Identity and Culture, Aug., 2016/6, 79-101 Masculinities Journal Bir Osmanlı Fetişi Olarak Modernite: Kesik Bıyık’ta Osmanlı Erkekliğinin Temsilleri Müge Özoğlu PhD Student, Centre for the Arts in Society, Universiteit Leiden Özet Erkeklik, Osmanlı kültürünün ve siyasetinin merkezi bir parçası olduğundan bu alanlardaki değişimler Osmanlı erkeklik tartışmalarını da önemli ölçüde etkilemiştir. Osmanlı İmparatorluğu’nun dünya siyasetindeki egemen rolünün modernitenin artan etkisiyle zayıflayamaya başlaması pek çok sosyo-politik endişe doğurmuştur. Ömer Seyfettin’in Kesik Bıyık öyküsü, modernitenin İmparatorluk üzerindeki etkisini erkeklik tartışmaları bağlamında incelemek için iyi bir örnek teşkil etmektedir.

C. 20555 i,4 MEMORANDUM FOR: Those on Attached List FROM: LeMoine J. Cunningham, Chief Section 2, Operating Reactor Programs Branch Division of Quality Assurance, Safeguards, and Inspection Programs Office of Inspection and Enforcement SUBJECT: UPDATED GUIDANCE ON FIT TESTING OF BIOPAK 60-P RESPIRATOR USERS This letter provides updated guidance on fit testing of BioPak 60-P respirator users in response to inquiries from licensees and inspectors regarding implemen- tation of previous guidance (memo to L.R. Greger, RIII, from L.J. Cunningham, IE August 8, 1983 - copy enclosed).- Licensee and inspectors have inquired as to what constitutes an acceptable method for performing quantitative fitting of the wearers of this apparatus as required in footnote 1, to Appendix A of Part 20; specifically, is it acceptable to check the fit of the device (the face to facepiece sealing capability) by testing the user while the user is wearing just the facepiece equipped with a high efficiency filter supplied by the manufacturer of the device. Previous guidance stated that the wearer must don the entire unit for-fit testing since it was 'felt that' fitting the face- piece with a high efficiency filter that is capable of allowing no more than 0.03% leakage would preclude measurement of the required 0.02% leakage or less through the face to facepiece sealing area. However, the 0.03% leakage allowed for high efficiency filters is determined with a more penetrating aerosol (monodispersed) than used in fit testing.
