    Martin Luther: the Face of the Reformation

    No full text
    Gettysburg College owns a portrait of Martin Luther, dated 1547 and signed with the insignia of the Cranach workshop. Having only arrived to the College in 1981, this artwork has not received the attention it deserves. I show for the first time how this work compares favorably to others like it in Germany and Poland, dubbed here as the “Fur Coat Series.” This website seeks to teach about and analyze the portrait to highlight its importance and excellent quality, and reconsider the portrait’s attribution to the Workshop of Lucas Cranach the Younger. You will also learn about Martin Luther, his portraits, and the Cranach workshop, and the roles they played in the Reformation

    Work Environment and Workers’ Smoking: The Impact of Affect and Social Support Among Korean Workers

    No full text
    The main goal of this study is to investigate the causal pathways of work environment and smoking habits. We also tested whether socio-psychic variables influence this pathway. By bridging the affective events theory framework, we compose two categories of work environment according to the affective events theory model: work features and emotional labor. Using the Korean Working Conditions Survey (N = 50,032), we analyzed the mediating effects after inputting negative affect, the interaction effects of social support, to predict smoking behaviors. The results reveal a direct relationship between lower job autonomy and smoking due to negative sentiments and the infringement of working-time flexibility. Lower levels of social support also impacted smoking in interactions with low job autonomy. Therefore, we suggest that work environment, and primarily work features, induces stress-related adverse affects and promotes smoking, while an environment of social support can reduce smoking

    Social Psychology and COVID-19: What the Field Can Tell Us About Behavior in a Pandemic

    No full text
    The COVID-19 pandemic has wreaked havoc in the lives of people around the world. Pandemics are powerful situations that can be examined from a social psychological lens. In this special section, four articles present data collected before and during the pandemic, providing a type of quasi-experimental design that helped examine the impact of the pandemic on social behavior. A number of findings emerged: the pandemic potentially increased instances of cyberbullying; the pandemic may have increased reports that Black-White intergroup interactions are more competitive and discriminatory; the pandemic may have reduced negative attitudes and bias in domestic versus international students in the U.S; and the pandemic may have allowed feelings of helplessness to provide a fear-reducing mechanism. We expand upon these findings by discussing how social psychology can help us understand and modify behaviors related to health and social relations during major threats like a pandemic

    Hans Staden\u27s Warhaftige Historia: How a Tale of Brazilian Captivity Affirmed Staden\u27s Protestant Identity

    Get PDF
    Hans Staden’s Warhaftige Historia detailed his experience as a captive to the Tupinambá in Brazil in the 1550s. The text serves as a gateway into the minds of Europeans in Brazil during this time period. After spending years working for the Catholic Portuguese in Brazil and nine months as a captive, native Hessians viewed Staden as a “foreigner” upon his return to his homeland. Staden used his text as a way to confirm his identity as a staunch Protestant and a devoted Hessian through a dedication to Prince Philipp and numerous allusions to his faith. In addition to solidifying his identity as a Protestant, Warhaftige Historia also allowed Staden to reaffirm his German identity after spending so many years in Brazil. Warhaftige Historia exhibited the tension between French and Portuguese colonizers, who Staden distanced himself from in order to verify his identity as a loyal Hessian. Warhaftige Historia, a highly political and propagandistic piece, served the purpose of affirming Staden’s loyalty to Hessian Prince Philipp and the Protestant faith after spending many years outside of his native land
