  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Burning Man, Catharsis on the Mall and Caps of Liberty
    Liminalities: A Journal of Performance Studies Vol. 15, No. 1 (2019) The Cultural Heroes of Do-ocracy: Burning Man, Catharsis on the Mall and Caps of Liberty Graham St. John “Are they red Smurf hats?” I queried my neighbor, as we spy three cats in weird hats taking the stage. These unassuming pied pipers are about to incite the Burnerverse. I’m inside The Marriott’s sprawling Davis Hall, at the 2017 Burning Man Global Leadership Conference, Oakland, California. Over six-hundred par- ticipants — “community leaders” from regions near and far in Burning Man’s global movement — have assembled. Crowned by red felt caps with their conical tops pulled forward, the trio are Roman Haferd, Adam Eidinger, and Josh Car- roll, co-founders of Catharsis on the Mall. While Burning Man1 is an epic community arts event mounted annually in Nevada’s Black Rock Desert, it is much more than the raising and destroying of its eponymous effigy. The event, known as Black Rock City, is built by an organ- izing body — a nonprofit today known as the Burning Man Project — that is motivated by an imperative to propagate a uniquely civic culture well outside the boundaries of its prototype event. Addressing a proliferation of the social uses of art in a period of political turmoil, and paying attention to a uniquely agentive Graham St. John, PhD, is a cultural anthropologist specialising in event-cultures.

Declaration I hereby declare that I worked on the thesis on my own and that I used only the sources listed in the bibliography. Brno 30.3. 2018 …………………………………….. Jan Chalupa Acknowledgements I would like to express my gratitude to Mgr. Radek Vogel, PhD. for his patience, guidance and precious advice during writing this thesis as well as the help with the topic. Abstract Although many research studies were devoted to etymologically themed works, there is no publication that is concerned specifically with male fashion. Therefore, this thesis focuses on the development of the terminology of male fashion. The aim of this thesis is to ascertain the etymological background of the terms of male fashion concerning the language origin, time period and word formation. The first part of the thesis is devoted to outlining the related of linguistic concepts, followed by a brief history of the English language and a brief history of fashion. The last chapter is devoted to the analysis of the terminology that is based on the corpus included in the appendix.

  • 1. Customs October 1928
    1. Customs October 1928 I’ll admit it. I never expected to get out of Russia alive. And that was before I was targeted as the man who murdered Stalin. At half past four, the sun’s already below the tree line, and I know I’ll be lucky if I live to see it rise another morning. The afternoon shadows lengthen around me, stretching languorously toward the stone-gray building that squats between me and the Russian border. Impossibly tall fences prickling with barbed wire march away on either side, disappearing into the woods. I have to squint my eyes to make out the birches and pines outside the pool cast by the floodlights above. Details run together in a grainy haze. There is no movement, no sound. The countryside surrounding the customs office is as dead as a pigeon in Moscow. Standing, I press my hands against my cheeks, trying to squeeze some warmth back into them. Even through my gloves, I can feel the roughness of the stubble on my face; with any luck, it will alter my appearance. It’s the only disguise I have. A new layer of powder crunches under my Belleville combat boots as I approach the steel- plated door of the customs office. After almost a full day of steady snowfall, the sky has finally cleared. The cold clings to me, a second skin underneath my woolen clothing. I can’t feel the doorknob beneath my palm. This is a problem. Unless I can get my hands warmed again, and fast, my chances of living through this are even worse.

  • The Material Culture of the Red Army 1941-1945
    Government Issue: The Material Culture of the Red Army 1941-1945 by Brandon Michael Schechter A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in Charge: Yuri Slezkine, Chair John Connelly Victoria Frede-Montemayor Alexei YurchaK Spring 2015 Copyright © 2015 Brandon Michael Schechter All Rights Reserved Abstract Government Issue: The Material Culture of the Red Army 1941-1945 by Brandon Michael Schechter Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor Yuri Slezkine, Chair This dissertation uses everyday objects to explore the meaning of the changes in Soviet society during the Great Patriotic War. The war was a fundamental shift in relations between citizen-soldiers and the state. It was also the greatest threat to the survival of the Stalinist state and Soviet people. The state survived by providing soldiers with the necessities and motivation to defend it. The former included rifles, boots, spoons and shovels, while the later encompassed harsh discipline, concern for well-being, and a shift to celebrating the accomplishments of the Russian Empire. All of this played out in objects, from underwear Kept lice free, newspapers and booKs to occupy soldiers' time and lamps to light their bunKers, to the introduction of medals depicting Russian Imperial heroes. Focusing on things (e.g. uniforms, weapons, tools, personal possessions) allows us to see the intersection of ideology and everyday life, of prescription and practice. Every chapter presents a different object or series of objects and uses them to both provide an ethnography of life in the Red Army and to highlight an aspect of the changes that tooK place in Soviet society during the war.
