Foreword The 5th EPEA International Conference on Education in Prisons, "Bending Back the Bars" was held in Blagdon, England, 1-4 October 1995. There werethree main conference themes that. year; "Promoting the growth of the individual in prison through a broad-based curriculum", "Encouraging Ownership by Staff and Prisoners" and "Building Bridges with the Community". At the time of the 5th EPEA conference, contacts had been taken with the National Prison Administration of Hungary. The NPA in Budapest generously agreed in hosting the EPEA conference in 1997 in cooperation with the EPEA. A working group started the conference planning already in Blagdon. One of the objectives of these conferences is to encourage research and examination of appropriate methods and practical initiatives related to different aspects of prison education, with a view of emphasizing the right to education and reducing recidivismnot as a goal in itselfmore as a valuable future consequence. A further wish has been toinvite countries of central and eastern Europe to take part in the conference. Therefore it was a special pleasure for us to welcome the representatives of these countries. The 6th EPEA Conference had a total of about 130 participants from 23 countries in Europe, Australia, USA and Israel. At this sixth EPEA Conference "Protective Bars", one of our aims was to focus on prison systems and humanisation and look into what part education can takein that development. The title of the conference was meant, in a way, to provoke people and make us thinkabout what different roles the "Wall" or "Bars" can have. Most of us agree in the role of protecting society from criminals by putting them behind bars. This perspective could be right aslong as you do not mean it for life and if the "insideperspective" is to prepare for life outside. Our conference title would also like you to think of a different perspective which,in some countries would mean that the walls or bars actually could protect and facilitatedevelopment and progression inside, as long as the bars exist. This, however, could be ahazardous perspec- tive and need a very carefully thought through policy. With or withoutwalls we believe in what education

Anita Judith Ogurlu 16 February 2016 2 Abstract This thesis examines the life and work of a little-known interwar period German writer Lilo Linke. Documenting individual and social evolution across three continents, her self-reflexive and autobiographical narratives are like conversations with readers in the hope of facilitating progressive change. With little tertiary education, as a self-fashioned practitioner prior to the emergence of cultural studies, Linke’s everyday experiences constitute ‘experiential learning’ (John Dewey). Rejecting her Nazi-leaning family, through ‘fortunate encounter[s]’ (Goethe) she became critical of Weimar and cultivated hope by imagining and working to become a better person, what Ernst Bloch called Vor-Schein. Linke’s ‘instinct of workmanship’, ‘parental bent’ and ‘idle curiosity’ was grounded in her inherent ‘spirit of insubordination’, terms borrowed from Thorstein Veblen.

INTRODUCTION Until 1985, when Darrel Frost published the Catalogue of the Amphibians Species of de World, no comprehensive list of amphibians of Peru existed. Now, Rodriguez et al . (1993) have plublished a preliminary list of Amphibians from Peru with species distribution in ecological regions. Herein, I list all the species of amphibians reported from Peru and annotations on some species listed for Rodriguez et al . (op. cit.). The present list contains the following (family/genus/species): in Gymnophiona: 5/6/16, in Caudata: 1/1/3, and in Anura: 9/44/298, the total is 15/51/316.

This is true both of its societies, often envisioned as ‘lost tribes in the forest,’ and the ‘raw green hell’ of its environment.”1 In many ways, we all know the common mythical images associated with the Amazon: the region that time left behind; the place where stone-age people continue to live; the green heart and hell of South America where western civilizing missions go to die. This mythic vision is strong and reeks of colonialist obsessions with the “backward” racial Other. Nugent went on to argue that, despite rigorous historical research, the Amazon “is so well known through an apparatus of mythic redundancy and hyperbolic, naturalistic excess that attempts to dismantle the stereotypes are largely ineffective.”2 Indeed, despite the countless efforts 1 Stephen Nugent, “Stop Mythologizing the Amazon—It Just Excuses Rampant Commercial Exploitation,” The Conversation, 15 February 2018. https://theconversation.com/stop-mythologising-the-amazon-it-just-excuses-rampant- commercial-exploitation-91343.

  • New Academic Program Proposal for Digital Humanities and Social Sciences
    NEW ACADEMIC PROGRAM PROPOSAL FOR DIGITAL HUMANITIES AND SOCIAL SCIENCES 1. PROGRAM DESCRIPTION AND PURPOSE a. Provide a brief description of the program as it will appear in the institution’s catalog. The bachelor of science degree in Digital Humanities and Social Sciences (DHSS) is an innovative, interdisciplinary major that combines information science and technologies with liberal arts training to provide students with the integrative literacies increasingly necessary for careers in cultural institutions, government, educational institutions, and technology firms. These transferable and sought-after capabilities ensure students leave RIT prepared for leadership as digital citizens. The DHSS program is a collaborative degree program. Students receive a strong foundation in critical thinking, cultural awareness, and communication in the College of Liberal Arts. This program offers a traditional liberal education, which is given new impact through engagement with digital technology. Coursework combines humanities and social science with computational and design training from the Golisano College for Computing and Information Science (GCCIS) and the College for Imaging Arts and Sciences (CIAS) in areas including human computer interaction, database management, geographic information technologies, and interactivity in new media. Students achieve both broad knowledge in digital humanities and social sciences and a specialization in an area of interest through their studies. Students benefit from experiential learning opportunities in one semester of cooperative education or an ternship, team project-based lab courses, and a capstone project. Students are encouraged to study abroad or pursue an international co-op in order to enhance their academic profile. b. Educational and Career Outcomes Educational Outcomes Through interdisciplinary coursework combining theory and application, students will: 1.

PETERS SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ZOOLOGY • NUMBER 145 SERIAL PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION The emphasis upon publications as a means of diffusing knowledge was expressed by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution. In his formal plan for the Insti- tution, Joseph Henry articulated a program that included the following statement: "It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge." This keynote of basic research has been adhered to over the years in the issuance of thousands of titles in serial publications under the Smithsonian imprint, com- mencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Annals of Flight Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Astrophysics Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology In these series, the Institution publishes original articles and monographs dealing with the research and collections of its several museums and offices and of professional colleagues at other institutions of learning. These papers report newly acquired facts, synoptic interpretations of data, or original theory in specialized fields. These pub- lications are distributed by mailing lists to libraries, laboratories, and other interested institutions and specialists throughout the world.
