Cubed Circle Newsletter 241 – Consistency Is Hard
Cubed Circle Newsletter 241 – Consistency is Hard As many of probably noticed, we have been posting late and sporadically for the last month. This was, obviously, not our intention, but with the second semester eating into my free time, staying up to date is a tall order. Even without the newsletter itself seeing weekly publication the site has still remained up to date on a weekly basis, thanks primarily to co-author Ben Carass, as well as guest writers Paul Cooke and Leslie Lee III. But, the newsletter has survived for well over 241 weeks, and will hopefully thrive in the years to come. I have attempted to make provisions for publishing related tasks which should minimize the risk of major delays (obviously there will be some regular delays, as this late issue can attest), but we have some fail safes in place in order to keep this to a minimum. With all of this said, we have a great issue for everyone this week with Paul Cooke discussing the Pro-Wrestling Only Greatest Wrestler Ever project and his personal experience with the poll, Ben covers the news including tons of results from Japan and the Lesnar USADA violation, the Mixed Bag returns with a look at comedy wrestling, Ricochet/Ospreay, and a potential WWE match of the year -- plus Ben also looks at last Sunday's Battleground show and the first RAW of the brand split (a very good show). Also, for those unaware, we now have an official Twitter account @CubedCircleWres allowing the banger to unprecedented highs at @BenCarass and @RyanClingman. -

" African Blues": the Sound and History of a Transatlantic Discourse
“African Blues”: The Sound and History of a Transatlantic Discourse A thesis submitted to The Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Music in the Division of Composition, Musicology, and Theory of the College-Conservatory of Music by Saul Meyerson-Knox BA, Guilford College, 2007 Committee Chair: Stefan Fiol, PhD Abstract This thesis explores the musical style known as “African Blues” in terms of its historical and social implications. Contemporary West African music sold as “African Blues” has become commercially successful in the West in part because of popular notions of the connection between American blues and African music. Significant scholarship has attempted to cite the “home of the blues” in Africa and prove the retention of African music traits in the blues; however much of this is based on problematic assumptions and preconceived notions of “the blues.” Since the earliest studies, “the blues” has been grounded in discourse of racial difference, authenticity, and origin-seeking, which have characterized the blues narrative and the conceptualization of the music. This study shows how the bi-directional movement of music has been used by scholars, record companies, and performing artist for different reasons without full consideration of its historical implications. i Copyright © 2013 by Saul Meyerson-Knox All rights reserved. ii Acknowledgements I would like to express my utmost gratitude to my advisor, Dr. Stefan Fiol for his support, inspiration, and enthusiasm. Dr. Fiol introduced me to the field of ethnomusicology, and his courses and performance labs have changed the way I think about music. -

Forum on Public Policy The Third Culture—A Conversation About Truth And Reconciliation: An African Americanist’s Reflection On The “Two Cultures” Debate In Post-Modern Society Josephine R.B. Wright, Professor of Music and The Josephine Lincoln Morris Professor of Black Studies, and Chair, Department of Africana Studies, The College of Wooster Abstract C. P. Snow launched the "Two Cultures" debate in 1959 during the Cold War era. While lamenting a widening gulf in communication between scientists and literary theorists, he championed the supremacy of scientific inquiry over canonical Western European literary traditions of his day. Globalization has forced many academics in the United States to (re)think how they prepare students today for leadership in a world overwhelmingly populated by peoples of non-European ancestry. At stake in this debate is the political contention over culture--specifically, whose culture is more valued than others and whose culture will be privileged in contemporary society. Such a topic should command greater attention within the academy, if we as educators hope to promote better understanding by students of diverse peoples and cultures around the world. One marker of globalization has been the widespread exportation of African-American music from the United States, a phenomenon documented as early as the antebellum period. Most black American musical traditions before 1960 evolved historically within a defined social-political framework of racial oppression, and any attempt to isolate the music from these realities obfuscates its connection to a collective history that all Americans at some level share. (Re)examination and "interrogation" of accessible historical documents (often selectively suppressed in standard American textbooks) help promote a "Third Culture." Such inquiry lays bare the irony/ contradiction of excluding widely exported repertories of music, arguably the principal representations of what is uniquely “American,” from Western canonical traditions. -

Birthday Greetings to Paul Oliver
Long May Your Banjo Ring! Birthday Greetings to Paul Oliver A couple of months ago, British blues writer Alan Balfour sent an e-mail to a private Internet discussion group we're both on, mentioning that the legendary blues scholar, writer and researcher Paul Oliver would celebrate his 70th birthday in June. The idea of a festschrift at least on a blues magazine level, was immediately proposed, and I began calling and e-mailing Paul's colleagues in the blues world to ask for contributions. Almost everyone I contacted said that no matter how busy they were with the pressures of their current workload (and many were professionals with very full plates), all they needed was a deadline and they'd have their offering ready. Several mentioned to me that Oliver had been their inspiration, the reason they had gotten into blues in the first place; still others cited him as the role model, whether personally or simply through his work, that they had tried to emulate in their own careers in the world of blues scholarship. I have no idea how many pages long Paul Oliver's CV is by now, but even a short list of the books he's written would fill an entire page of this magazine. Such seminal works as The Story of the Blues, Savannah Syncopators, Songsters and Saints, Conversation With the Blues, Blues Fell This Morning and more taught many neophyte blues fans the history of the music and musicians, while the magazine articles and liner notes he has written in the past four decades are uncountable. -
ON SYMMETRY and ASYMMETRY in Literaturet Rebecca[3Oa]

PAVLOV1C EE.N.-Croatian Center, Trg Republike 7, 41000 Zagreb Croatia, Yugoslavia and N. TRINAJSTIC The Rugjer Bo~kovi~ Institute, EO.B. 1016, 41001 Zagreb, Croatia, Yugoslavia Abstract--An attempt is made to investigate whether or not the principles of symmetry and asymmetry operate in literature. The result of the analysis is that certain (near) symmetric and/or asymmetric patterns may be found in literary works. Commonly, the authors use some convenient symmetric (asymmetric) figure, either as a descriptive means or as an underlying core around which their stories unfold. A structure of a literary work may also be interpreted in terms of symmetric and/or asymmetric objects. Sometimes a graphic shape of a work, most often of a poem, possesses symmetry. The content of a literary work may likewise be associated with some symmetric or asymmetric configuration. The citations from several literary works are included. Symmetrisch oder nicht- das ist die Frage. Werner Gilde[ 1] INTRODUCTION Symmetry is an enormous subject[ 1-3]. The concept of symmetry is one of the most fundamental concepts in science[I-21], but also appears as a significant principle in nature, fine arts, and many human creative--and other--activities[ 1-3,22-27a]. Mathematics lies at its foundation. Symmetry, as an artistic conception and a medium of expression, has been with us since man's earliest attempts to communicate. -
