Bookmark - Archaeology in the Humanities.Norman Yoffee &Severin Fowles -2011 -Diogenes 58 (1-2):35-52.Since archaeology is fundamentally the study of the human past, which is what the word “archaeology” connotes according to its Greek etymology, it is part of the humanities. However, archaeologists work in teams with scientists and employ quantitative techniques and comparative methods of the social sciences; archaeologists are thus an academic hybrid and are pleased to live in the interstices of many disciplines. In this article we review the history of archaeology in the humanities and explore some new directions in (...) archaeological research. We discuss the enduring questions of origins of the antiquity of humanity, religion and art, the first agricultural villages, and the earliest cities, states, and civilizations. We also consider new agendas in archaeology: historical archaeology, landscapes in the past and present, material studies of the present, and how archaeologists are engaged in modern politics.

- Interfering with Nature.RichardNorman -1996 -Journal of Applied Philosophy 13 (1):1-12.Certain kinds of medical treatment are often held to be morally unacceptable because they are an 'interference with nature'. I suggest a way in which we can make sense of such ideas. We can make significant choices only against a background of conditions which we regard as 'natural', and these will typically include such facts as those of birth and death, of youth and age, and of sexual relations. I argue, however, that such ideas, though intelligible, do not establish any (...) valid moral objection to, for instance, the use of ovarian tissue for assisted conception. (shrink)

- Chardin and the Text of Still Life.Norman Bryson -1989 -Critical Inquiry 15 (2):227-252.It can sometimes be that when a great artist works in a particular genre, what is done within that genre can make one see as if for the first time what that genre really is, why for centuries the genre has been important, what its logic is, and what, in the end, that genre is for. I want to suggest that this is so in the case of Jean-Baptiste-Siméon Chardin, and in the case of still life. Chardin’s still life painting (...) can reveal, as almost no other classical painting of still life can, what is at stake in still life, and what is that made still life one of the enduring categories of classical European painting. Understanding Chardin can force us right back to the fundamentals of the genre, to still life’s origins in antiquity, and to the extraordinary development of the genre in the seventeenth century. Here I will be trying to investigate the genre of still life in the light of what Chardin’s work reveals about it. In a sense I will be treating hardin as a critic, and not only as a painter, though everything he has to say about the genre is said in paint, and not as argument. If we can see Chardin’s work with eyes fresh enough, we can let Chardin reveal to us still life’s inner logic, its specific problems and solutions, and not only his solutions, but the solutions other still life painters look towards. In fact we probably have to turn to a painter to understand what still life is concerned with. It has always been the least discussed and the least theorised of the classical genres, and even today it is hard to find discussions of still life at a level of sophistication comparable to that of history painting, landscape, or portraiture. It is the genre farthest from language, and so the hardest for discourse to reach. There is no obvious tradition of theoretical work on still life, and in these circumstances it is appropriate to turn to a painter’s practice for guidance. But first I need to make some preliminary observations about a striking and defining feature of the genre: its exclusion of the human form, and its seeming assault on the value and prestige of the human subject.Norman Bryson is professor of comparative literature at the University of Rochester and editor of the series Cambridge New Art History and Criticism. He is the author of Tradition and Desire: From David to Delacroix and the editor of Calligram: Essays in New Art History from France . He is currently completing a study of still life painting, Looking at the Overlooked. (shrink)

- The Case for Pacifism.RichardNorman -1988 -Journal of Applied Philosophy 5 (2):197-210.ABSTRACT I present the case for pacifism by formulating what I take to be the most plausible version of the idea of respect for human life. This generates a very strong, though not necessarily absolute, moral presumption against killing, in war or any other situation. I then show how difficult it is for this presumption to be overridden, either by the considerations invoked in ‘just war’theory, or by consequentialist claims about what can be achieved through war. Despite the strength of (...) the moral case against war, people sometimes say that they have no choice but to fight. In the concluding section of the paper I attempt to identify the relevant sense in which this could be said, and I discuss briefly how this affects the case for pacifism. (shrink)

- Grouping, Simile, and Oxymoron in Pictures: A Design-Based Cognitive Approach.Norman Y. Teng &Sewen Sun -2002 -Metaphor and Symbol 17 (4):295-316.Researchers have identified 2 distinctive types of pictorial displays, namely, pictorial metaphor and pictorial simile, and offered theoretical explanations of them. Regarding the distinction between pictorial metaphor and pictorial simile, we argue that symmetric image alignment of pictorial components depicting things at the object level is the principal design factor that sets pictorial simile apart from pictorial metaphor and links pictorial simile to pictorial grouping. Based on the idea of symmetric image alignment, an attempt is made to identify and explain (...) a further type of pictorial display, namely, pictorial oxymoron. We propose a hypothesis, called the "image grouping hypothesis," to provide an integrated account of pictorial grouping, pictorial simile, and pictorial oxymoron. The hypothesis can be summed up as follows: Symmetric image alignment of pictorial components depicting things of the same kind is apt for expressing pictorial grouping; symmetric image alignment of pictorial components depicting things of different kinds is apt for expressing pictorial simile; and symmetric image alignment of pictorial components depicting things that can be seen as incompatible with each other is apt for expressing pictorial oxymoron.

- The Rohingya Crisis: A Moral, Ethnographic, and Policy Assessment.Norman K. Swazo &Tawfique M. Haque -2020 - Routledge India.This book provides a history of the ethnic persecution of the Rohingyas in Myanmar and their disputed ethnic and national identity. It focuses on how the crisis has morphed into a geopolitical encounter among Bangladesh, China, India, and Myanmar. It further explores the moral, ethnographic, and public policy issues in the humanitarian response to the crisis of the Rohingya people. The volume analyzes the question of citizenship for the Rohingyas by analyzing historical documents and interviews which chronicle the status and (...) identity of the community and their past involvement in the government and politics of Myanmar. The authors focus specifically on the changing geopolitical context of state formation in South Asia and the tense relationships between Myanmar and its neighbours - Bangladesh, China, and India. The book examines the alliances and disputes in the South and Southeast Asia region, which are predicated on economic and strategic gains, and their impact on the Rohingya crisis. It also looks at the failure of bilateral and multilateral negotiations among these countries to adequately address or alleviate the plight of the stateless Rohingyas. This volume will be of great interest to scholars and researchers of international studies, peace, human rights and conflict studies, sociology, ethnic studies, border studies, migration and diaspora studies, discrimination and exclusion studies, public policy, and Asian Studies. It will also be useful for professionals working in the media, nongovernmental organizations, think tanks, and policy makers, as well as general readers interested in the history of the persecution of the Rohingya people.

- The Cost of Birth Defects: Estimates of the Value of Protection.Norman Waitzman,Richard M. Scheffler &Patrick S. Romano -1996 - Upa.This book uses an incidence approach to look at the economic repercussions of birth defects. The authors investigate eighteen of the most clinically significant birth defects affecting 35,000 newborns each year in our country. Their assessments suggest that the annual cost of these eighteen birth defects, together, is more than eight billion dollars . The authors describe in detail their methodology and data sources while providing thorough accounts of each of the eighteen birth defects. Waitzman, Scheffler, and Romano break new (...) ground by using reports from the California Birth Defects Monitoring Program in order to provide cost estimates. They illustrate to the reader how cost estimates of specific birth defects can be used to justify prevention interventions and strategies. In chapter seven, they provide an important example, showing cost-benefit analysis of a program of folate supplementation of food to prevent neutral tube defects. Contents: List of Tables; Preface; Acknowledgements; Introduction; The Application of Cost-of-Illness Methodology To Birth Defects; The Direct Medical Costs of Birth Defects; Nonmedical Direct Costs of Birth Defects: Developmental Services and Special Education; The Indirect Costs of Birth Defects; Premature Mortality and Heightened Morbidity; An Assessment of Total Costs and Policy Implications; Description of Birth Defects; Description of Major Data Sources; Index.

That this should be the case is due in no small way to the fact that one must be prepared, equivalently, to pay court, woo and win not one—task enough in itself—but two ladies–in–waiting. They are no less than Clio, the Muse of History and the fair Lady Philosophy. In the spirit of monogamy, one may (...) well wish to speak of Cliophil, the Muse of the History of Philosophy.

- Slime moulds and the origin of foldback DNA.Norman Hardman -1986 -Bioessays 5 (3):105-111.The genomes of the slime moulds are relatively small when compared with those of higher eukaryotes. They also contain far fewer families of repetitive sequences. Nevertheless, the general patterns of organization of their repetitive DNA are similar. The slime moulds can therefore help us to investigate the structure and evolution of repetitive DNA in “simple” eukaryotes and to understand how these sequences contribute to the architecture and function of the eukaryotic genome. Several questions remain, including perhaps the most important: do (...) repetitive sequences perform some definable function?. (shrink)

- Wrongful Risks And Unintended Consequences.Norman Gillespie -1997 -Jahrbuch für Recht Und Ethik 5.This paper explores whether it is possible to use Kant's writings on law and his Principle of Right to develop a theory of tort liability for the unintended harmful consequences to other persons that materialize from the wrongful risks created by human actions. The paper uses PR to identify such risks, and imputes to their authors the wrongful hindrances of other persons that result from them. PR protects the freedom of action of human agents, but it also permits them to (...) exercise that freedom by assuming or consenting to the creation of risks towards themselves, and the harms that materialize from such risks are imputed to those voluntary risk bearers. The paper also explains how PR entails both strict liability and negligence, in different domains of tort law, as standards of tort liability, so that neither of those standards is the fundamental principle of tort law; that principle, instead, appears to be the the Principle of Right. Der Beitrag untersucht, ob es möglich ist, Kants Rechtslehre und sein Allgemeines Prinzip des Rechts zu benutzen, um eine Theorie der deliktischen Haftung für Fahrlässigkeitstaten zu entwickeln. Fahrlässigkeitstaten sind rechtswidrige menschliche Handlungen, die unbeabsichtigt Gefahren für andere verursachen, durch die schädliche Folgen für diese anderen entstehen. Der Artikel benutzt das Allgemeine Prinzip des Rechts, um solche Risiken festzustellen und ihren Urhebern die daraus resultierenden rechtswidrigen Verletzungen anderer Personen zuzurechnen. Das Prinzip schützt die Handlungsfreiheit. Aber es erlaubt den handelnden Personen auch, diese ihre Freiheit auszuüben, insofern es ihnen gestattet, Risiken für sich selbst zu schaffen. Die dadurch entstehenden Schäden werden dem Handelnden auch zugerechnet, weil er die entsprechenden Gefahren freiwillig übernommen hat. Der Artikel erklärt, wie das Allgemeine Prinzip des Rechts in den verschiedenen Bereichen des Deliktsrechts bald eine Gefährdungshaftung, bald eine Haftung für Fahrlässigkeit begründet. Keiner dieser Standards enthält das eigentliche Grundprinzip des Deliktsrechts. Das Grundprinzip ist statt dessen Kants Allgemeines Prinzip des Rechts. (shrink)No categoriesExport citation Bookmark

- Freedom in America: A 200-Year Perspective.Norman A. Graebner -1977 - Pennsylvania State University Press.Freedom! Freedom! The word "rings" with meaning to each of us! Yet, what does it really mean? Only the tyrant, living in a secure environment and operating above the law, is theoretically free to do as he chooses. For the remainder of society freedom is an elusive condition, circumscribed by a wide spectrum of personal, social, economic, and governmental restraints. Freedom is bounded most fundamentally by the nature of man and the physical universe. Merely to remain alive human beings must (...) accept a myriad of restrictions on individual appetites, actions, and desires. Personal choices are limited by levels of intelligence and the capacity to think. Effective propaganda or advertising can affect the freedom of those unable to analyze or resist it. Poor health and poverty can set serious limits to choice. No less significant are the intellectual and moral limitations which society imposes on those whom it intends to respect and honor. Social customs and mores, and the restraints they impose, set limits of necessity and respectability and thus, for most, the limits of free choice. Freedom is boundless for none. Those are most free who accept personal and social restraints as the necessary price which they and society must pay for minimum of order, decorum, security, and satisfaction. Freedom with restraint for none creates chaos; freedom with restraint for some creates injustice. Thus restraints must be public no less than private, for freedom, in practice, must be limited by regard for the freedom and welfare of others. This book brings together fourteen outstanding and concerned scholars to acquaint readers with the history, nature, and significance of freedom in America since the Declaration of Independence. Its publication should cause the reader to reflect on the meaning of freedom for the future. Following a "stage-setting" introduction, the chapters are organized to cover four essential areas of concern: Foundations of Freedom, Freedom and Governmental Processes, Freedom and the Human Condition, and Freedom and the Physical Environment. As would be expected, various points of view are presented. However, the differences are not over the facts, but over their meanings and their significance for the future. Certainly this is one of the better efforts to capture the meaning of democratic thought in American history. (shrink)
