  • Profile of a Plant: the Olive in Early Medieval Italy, 400-900 CE By
    Profile of a Plant: The Olive in Early Medieval Italy, 400-900 CE by Benjamin Jon Graham A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History) in the University of Michigan 2014 Doctoral Committee: Professor Paolo Squatriti, Chair Associate Professor Diane Owen Hughes Professor Richard P. Tucker Professor Raymond H. Van Dam © Benjamin J. Graham, 2014 Acknowledgements Planting an olive tree is an act of faith. A cultivator must patiently protect, water, and till the soil around the plant for fifteen years before it begins to bear fruit. Though this dissertation is not nearly as useful or palatable as the olive’s pressed fruits, its slow growth to completion resembles the tree in as much as it was the patient and diligent kindness of my friends, mentors, and family that enabled me to finish the project. Mercifully it took fewer than fifteen years. My deepest thanks go to Paolo Squatriti, who provoked and inspired me to write an unconventional dissertation. I am unable to articulate the ways he has influenced my scholarship, teaching, and life. Ray Van Dam’s clarity of thought helped to shape and rein in my run-away ideas. Diane Hughes unfailingly saw the big picture—how the story of the olive connected to different strands of history. These three people in particular made graduate school a humane and deeply edifying experience. Joining them for the dissertation defense was Richard Tucker, whose capacious understanding of the history of the environment improved this work immensely. In addition to these, I would like to thank David Akin, Hussein Fancy, Tom Green, Alison Cornish, Kathleen King, Lorna Alstetter, Diana Denney, Terre Fisher, Liz Kamali, Jon Farr, Yanay Israeli, and Noah Blan, all at the University of Michigan, for their benevolence.

  • Ron Numbers Collection-- the Creationists
    Register of the Ron Numbers Collection-- The Creationists Collection 178 Center for Adventist Research James White Library Andrews University Berrien Springs, Michigan 49104-1400 1992, revised 2007 Ron Numbers Collection--The Creationists (Collection 178) Scope and Content This collection contains the records used as resource material for the production of Dr. Numbers' book, The Creationists, published in 1992. This book documents the development of the creationist movement in the face of the growing tide of evolution. The bulk of the collection dates from the 20th century and covers most of the prominent, individual creationists and pro-creation groups of the late 19th and 20th century primarily in the United States, and secondarily, those in England, Australia, and Canada. Among the types of records included are photocopies of articles and other publications, theses, interview tapes and transcripts, and official publications of various denominations. One of the more valuable contributions of this collection is the large quantity of correspondence of prominent individuals. These records are all photocopies. A large section contains documentation related to Seventh-day Adventist creationists. Adventists were some of the leading figures in the creationist movement, and foremost among this group is George McCready Price. The Adventist Heritage Center holds a Price collection. The Numbers collection contributes additional correspondence and other documentation related to Price. Arrangement Ron Numbers organized this collection for the purpose of preparing his book manuscript, though the book itself is not organized in this way. Dr. Numbers suggested his original arrangement be retained. While the collection is arranged in its original order, the outline that follows may be of help to some researchers.

  • 1 Big History, the Big Bang, and the Big Book: the History of Science
    Big History, the Big Bang, and the Big Book: The History of Science Meets the Tradition of Christianity Course Context In the 1980s, historian David Christian embarked on a delightfully daring journey: to narrate the entire history of the world from its origins to the present. Ignoring the sacred cow of academic specialization, in which academics are only encouraged to speak about their immediate areas of intellectual concentration, Christian coined the term “Big History” to refer to the history of the cosmos in all of its fourteen-billion years of glory. Even though he was an Australian historian of Russia, with little formal training in science, Christian began teaching history in a way that no one had quite done before. As David Christian was attempting to understand the evolution of history across fourteen billion years, many conservative Christians were actively vilifying the consensus of scientists when it came to the age of the universe, the age of earth, and the origins of human life. Kenneth Ham, an Australian like David Christian who is also around the same age, is at the forefront of creationist apologetics. Ham founded the Creation Museum and he is president of a highly influential organization that teaches young-earth creationism and rejects the methodologies and assumptions of mainstream science. Who is right, David Christian or Ken Ham? And what difference does it make anyway? Course Description In Big History, the Big Bang, and the Big Book, we will explore the intersection between the history of mainstream science and the beliefs of evangelical Christianity. As we look at each of the major branches of science, we will do so with an eye toward understanding how it impacts the thought and practice of Protestant evangelicalism.

  • Study Guide for “Science & Religion”
    STUDY GUIDE: HAVE SCIENCE AND RELIGION ALWAYS BEEN AT WAR? THE DRAPER-WHITE THESIS By Dr. Joshua M. Moritz VIDEO SUMMARY: There is a popular conception that the historical relationship between science and religion has always been one of conflict or even all-out warfare. Historians of science call this the “conflict thesis.” In this video, historians of science Dr. Lawrence Principe and Dr. Edward Davis examine the historical roots and social context of the conflict thesis. Principe and Davis explain that the conflict thesis can be traced primarily to the popular works of two 19th century Americans: John William Draper and Andrew Dickson White. Principe and Davis argue that Draper and White’s use of the language of “conflict” and “warfare” falls far short of the historical reality. Nevertheless, the popularity of these two works and the global influence of these two works still inform current views of how science and religion intersect. CONTRIBUTORS Dr. Lawrence M. Principe is the Drew Professor of the Humanities at Johns Hopkins University in the Department of History of Science and Technology and the Department of Chemistry. He is author of The Scientific Revolution: A Very Short Introduction (Oxford University Press, 2011). Dr. Edward (Ted) Davis is Professor of the History of Science at Messiah College in Mechanicsburg, PA. He is co-editor (with Michael Hunter) of The Works of Robert Boyle (Taylor & Francis, 2000). DISCUSSION QUESTIONS In this film, historian of science Dr. Lawrence Principe and Dr. Ted Davis explain that Draper and White’s views were rooted in the social and political movements of the time.

  • Viking, Pagan Or Folk? Distinguishing Possibilities for Metal Sub-Genres
    ČLANCI ALEXANDER HOFMANN VIKING, PAGAN OR FOLK? DISTINGUISHING POSSIBILITIES FOR METAL SUB-GENRES Izvorni znanstveni članak / Original Scholarly Paper UDK: 78.036 "19/20" aBStraCt The different sub-genres of metal music, which have formed in the last decades, are not only of interest due to their diverse and unique characteristics, but also evidence a variety in metal music whereby its clichéd black and gloomy world gains a bit of color. This multitude of sub-genres will inevitably lead to musicians, fans and even researchers no longer being able to differentiate between the genres. With Viking, pagan, and folk metal, this interesting process of fusion is already taking place, although it is possible to distinguish Viking and pagan at least from folk metal. Keywords: instrumentation, metal sub-genres, musical analysis, popular music introDuCtion During the last few decades many different metal sub-genres have developed, from the classic, and especially from the extreme, metal genre. Comprising bands such as Ensiferum, Finntroll, Korpiklaani and Turisas – surprisingly only Finnish bands – so-called folk metal is one of these sub-genres, which became part of the metal mainstream during the 2000s.1 For Spracklen the popularity of Finnish folk metal is based on commercialization, while other possible reasons could be the national distinction from Norwegian black and Swedish death metal, or, at least in Finland, a phase of increased inclusion of folk elements in popular music. “The combination of a nationally institutionalized folk tradition and the transnational genre of […] metal”2 is also mentioned by Neilson as a reason for the success of Finnish folk metal.

  • How Supporters of Evolution Encourage Violations of the Establishment Clause
    ZEAL FOR DARWIN’S HOUSE CONSUMES THEM: HOW SUPPORTERS OF EVOLUTION ENCOURAGE VIOLATIONS OF THE ESTABLISHMENT CLAUSE Casey Luskin† I. INTRODUCTION The common stereotype in the controversy over teaching evolution holds that it is the opponents of evolution who are constantly trying to “sneak religious dogma back into science education.”1 While perhaps in some instances this caricature is not entirely undeserved,2 the mainstream media and legal community pay scant attention to incidents where proponents of Darwinian evolution transgress the boundary between church and state erected by the Establishment Clause. By documenting ways that evolution advocates encourage violations of the Establishment Clause—in some instances, explicitly advocating state endorsement of pro-evolution religious viewpoints in the science classroom—this Article will show the impropriety of the common “Inherit the Wind stereotype.”3 To be sure, one area where proponents of evolution do not violate the Establishment Clause is in the mere fact that public schools teach the scientific evidence supporting neo-Darwinian evolution (evolution).4 In the foundational 1968 case Epperson v. Arkansas, not only did the U.S. Supreme Court plainly rule under the presumption that teaching evolution is † Casey Luskin, M.S., J.D., Esq. is Program Officer in Public Policy and Legal Affairs for the Discovery Institute.
