Dr. Thomas R. Paradise Thesis Director Dr. Noah Billig Dr. Joel Gordon Committee Member Committee Member Abstract Multidisciplinary research and philosophical discourse have long explored the complex relationship between the objective environment and subjective human perception. No two humans perceive, experience, and form attitudes about the same phenomenon in exactly the same way. Individual demographics (sex, age) and group identity (culture, religion, ethnicity, political ideology) have been shown to have a profound effect on perception of phenomena; research has also focused on the effect of the physical environment itself.

  • Memory Trace Fazal Sheikh
    MEMORY TRACE FAZAL SHEIKH 2 3 Front and back cover image: ‚ ‚ 31°50 41”N / 35°13 47”E Israeli side of the Separation Wall on the outskirts of Neve Yaakov and Beit Ḥanīna. Just beyond the wall lies the neighborhood of al-Ram, now severed from East Jerusalem. Inside front and inside back cover image: ‚ ‚ 31°49 10”N / 35°15 59”E Palestinian side of the Separation Wall on the outskirts of the Palestinian town of ʿAnata. The Israeli settlement of Pisgat Ze’ev lies beyond in East Jerusalem. This publication takes its point of departure from Fazal Sheikh’s Memory Trace, the first of his three-volume photographic proj- ect on the Israeli–Palestinian conflict. Published in the spring of 2015, The Erasure Trilogy is divided into three separate vol- umes—Memory Trace, Desert Bloom, and Independence/Nakba. The project seeks to explore the legacies of the Arab–Israeli War of 1948, which resulted in the dispossession and displacement of three quarters of the Palestinian population, in the establishment of the State of Israel, and in the reconfiguration of territorial borders across the region. Elements of these volumes have been exhibited at the Slought Foundation in Philadelphia, Storefront for Art and Architecture, the Brooklyn Museum of Art, and the Pace/MacGill Gallery in New York, and will now be presented at the Al-Ma’mal Foundation for Contemporary Art in East Jerusalem, and the Khalil Sakakini Cultural Center in Ramallah. In addition, historical documents and materials related to the history of Al-’Araqīb, a Bedouin village that has been destroyed and rebuilt more than one hundred times in the ongoing “battle over the Negev,” first presented at the Slought Foundation, will be shown at Al-Ma’mal.

  • Coralliophilidae from the Mediterranean Sea Off the Coast of Israel
    MALAKOLÓGIAI TÁJÉKOZTATÓ MALACOLOGICAL NEWSLETTER 2001 19: 89–91 Coralliophilidae from the Mediterranean Sea off the Coast of Israel H. K. Mienis Abstract: A revision of the Coralliophilidae collected along the Mediterranean coast of Israel confirmed the presence of four species: Coralliophila brevis, Coralliophila meyendorffi, Coralliophila squamosa and Babelomurex carirriferus. The latter seems the most common one. Key–words: Mollusca, Gastropoda, Coralliophilidae, distribution, Mediterranean Sea, Israel. The Coralliophilidae or Coral snails constitutes a gastropod family, which is very popular among shell collectors. Especially the numerous species living in the tropics excell in form and sculp- ture. A most up-todate review of the family was published by Kosuge, S.–Suzuki, M. (1985), however, recently numerous additional species have been described from the Western Pacific. Eleven species have been reported so far from the Mediterranean Sea (Sabelli, B. et al., 1990), but it is rather doubtful whether Coralliobia (Quoyola) madreporarum (Sowerby, 1822), an Indo-Pacific species, has indeed settled permanently in the Mediterranean Sea. The scien- tific name of the latter is a fine example of the taxonomic difficulties encountered in this family. While Sabelli, B. et all., 1990 listed it as a Coralliobia, Kosuge, S.–Suzuki, M. (1985) and Bosch, D. T. et al. (1995) placed it in Coralliophila. These differences of opinion are due to the fact that classification of the Coral snails is based on shell characters only. All the species in the family are parasites and lack a radula: one of the most important taxonomic characters within the Muricacea. The Coralliophilidae occurring off the Mediterranean coast of Israel have been enumerated by Barash, A.–Danin, Z.

    Vol. 7B, I9j8 L. B. HOLTHUIS and E. GOTTLIEB 93 Material of this species was examined from the following localities: Haifa Bay (samples 98, 245), Atlit, Tantura, Caesarea (rock pools, VI. 1946) and Bat Yam. The Haifa specimens were collected at depths of 22 and 29 m, respectively. The carapace lengths of the specimens varied between 4.5 and 23 mm; in two ovigerous females it was 11 and 11.5 mm, respectively. Xantho poressa is also known under the names Xantho hydrophilus (Herbst 1790) and Xantho rivulosus (Risso 1816), both of which are incorrect (see Hol- thuis 1954). The systematics of this and related species of the genus have been dealt with extensively by Drach and Forest (1953). The species inhabits the entire Mediterranean, the Black Sea and the Canary Islands. The records from the E Mediterranean are : Navarino Bay, Methone (=Modon) and Sapientza, S Greece (Guerin 1832, as Cancer cinereus), Phale- ron Bay near Athens (Athanassopoulos 1917), Bosporus (Heller 1863), Istanbul fishmarket (Ninni 1923), near Gallipoli, Sea of Marmara (OstroumorT 1896), near Khania, NW Crete (Lucas 1853, Raulin 1870), Rhodes (Santucci 1928, Tortonese 1947), Cyprus (Heller 1863), Lebanon (Drach and Forest 1953), Sidon ( =Saida), Lebanon (Monod 1931), Israel (Bodenheimer 1935, 1937), Haifa (Steinitz 1933), Caesarea, Israel (Gottlieb 1953), Egypt (Audouin 1826), Port Said (Caiman 1927), near Alexandria, Egypt (Balss 1936).
