| long nose cat: Crania Aegyptiaca Samuel George Morton, 1844 |
| long nose cat: Crania Ægyptiaca Samuel George Morton, 2019-11-27 In 'Crania √Ügyptiaca,' Samuel George Morton presents a groundbreaking exploration of Egyptian craniology, meticulously cataloging cranial measurements of mummified remains. Through his innovative empirical approach, Morton seeks to establish a scientific basis for understanding racial types and their relationship to civilization. His style, rich in detail yet methodical, employs meticulous statistical analysis, positioning the work within the broader 19th-century context of anthropometry and physical sciences while foreshadowing the contentious debates around race and biology that would follow. As such, 'Crania √Ügyptiaca' not only challenges contemporary understandings of anthropology but also reflects the period's fascination with the intersection of science and imperialism. Samuel George Morton, a physician and one of the early figures in American anthropology, was deeply influenced by the intellectual currents of his time, including the burgeoning field of comparative anatomy. His professional background in medicine and his exposure to various cultures through his anatomical studies propelled his interest in race and human variation. Yet, while his work aimed to contribute to the scientific understanding of human diversity, it also uncritically mirrored the prejudices of his era, raising ethical questions still debated today. I recommend 'Crania √Ügyptiaca' to scholars and enthusiasts of anthropology, history, and social sciences for its pioneering methodology and its audacious attempts to categorize human variation. This book serves as both a historical artifact and a cautionary tale, reflecting the complexities and implications of scientific inquiry in the context of race. Engaging with Morton's work offers valuable insights into the roots of contemporary debates on ethnicity and identity. |

| long nose cat: Murlo and the Etruscans Richard Daniel De Puma, Jocelyn Penny Small, 1994 Murlo and the Etruscans explores this and other mysteries in a collection of twenty essays by leading specialists of Etruscan and classical art, all of whom have been associated with the Murlo site. Numerous photographs and drawings accompany the essays. The first eleven chapters survey specific groups of Etruscan objects and challenge the view of Etruscan art as provincial or derivative. Interpretations of the magnificent series of decorated terra cotta frieze plaques and other architectural elements contribute to an understanding of Murlo and related Etruscan centers. Plaques depicting a lively Etruscan banquet offer a way to detect differences between Etruscan and ancient Greek society. The remaining nine chapters treat various aspects of Etruscan art, often moving beyond ancient Murlo, both geographically and temporally. They examine funerary symbolism, sculpted amber, and amber trade contacts along the ancient Adriatic Coast; depictions of domesticated cats; votive terra cottas of human anatomical parts and how they help in understanding Etruscan medicine; and the adaptation of Greek style, myth, and iconography in Etruscan art. These essays will have a broad impact on the study of the ancient Mediterranean. They will certainly be required reading not only for Etruscologists but for anyone with an interest in the world of classical antiquity. The range of subjects, moving in wide arcs around the archaeological site at Murlo, brings the site into focus in a way that a series of standard archaeological site reports could not.--Kenneth Hamma, J. Paul Getty Museum There is a fine and commendable interweaving and intertwining of thoughts and scholarly research throughout Murlo and the Etruscans. It will be a useful reference source for the art of Etruscan coroplast, wherein lies the forte of the Etruscan sculptor!--Mario A. Del Chiaro, University of California |

| long nose cat: Kinesic Intelligence in the Humanities Guillemette Bolens, 2023-12-20 This research collection showcases how kinesic intelligence is fundamental to human communication and our ability to produce complex meaning, exploring its manifestations across a range of humanities disciplines, and connecting our past with our social and cultural future. The book defines kinesic intelligence as a higher-order intellectual competence that allows human beings to interact and grow cognitively and intersubjectively through sensorimotricity and interpersonal movement. Understood in this way, kinesic intelligence can offer insights into the development of humans’ meaning-making abilities and, in turn, society and culture more broadly. Recognizing the power of the humanities in furthering sociocultural development, the collection features perspectives from scholars across a range of topics, including the multimodality of language acquisition in children; young adults in clinical psychology and medical humanities; nonverbal communication in history; legal language and reasoning; literature and cognitive studies; the internet and multispecies anthropology; and sensoriality in history and art. Foregrounding the impact of the humanities in promoting new understandings of human intelligence, this volume will be of interest to scholars in cognitive legal and literary studies, multimodality, anthropology, history, medical humanities, and those with an interest in the real-world impact of the humanities. |
