THE ANATOMY OF FAVORINUS JAPONICUS BABA (NUDIBRANCHIA-EOLIDOIDEA)
No full textFavorinus GRAY, 1850 is a splendid genus, the distinctive characters of which were introduced in parts by ALDER & HANCOCK, 1855, and somewhat more effectively by ODHNER, 1939 (see also MACNAE, 1954a, pp. 17-19). Eolis alba A. & H., 1844, Atlantic, forms the type of the genus. A series of species were added to this genus by the senior author (F. pacificus BABA, 1937; F. japonicus BABA, 1949; F. perfoliatus BABA, 1949; and F. mirabilis BABA, 1955), and it was revealed that the rhinophores in Favorinus are either simple, or bulbed, or even perfoliated according to different species. Here F. japonicus BABA was taken up for special study in anatomy, with the hope to understand the various genetic features more profoundly than before. Apparently this species is one of those nearest to the type of the genus, particularly in having bulbs on the mid-length of the rhinophores

"Strilni kamen" s Baba lokve
No full textThe author analyzes the prehistoric stone axe-hammer found at the Baba lokva medieval settlement site in Kaštela (14th to 17th centuries), observing it from the aspect of mythological perception
of such finds as apotropaic objects (amulets, talismans). Drawing numerous ethnological parallels in Croatia, Bosnia and other parts of Central Europe and archaeological parallels in northern Croatia (Ludbreg – Iovia, Paka fortification) and Dalmatia (Begovača – Biljane Donje), the author argues that the Baba lokva axe was used to protect dwellings from lightning or, perhaps, as a personal protection of its owner who carried it. It is a custom that has been preserved since the prehistoric pagan (proto-Slavic and proto-Indo-European) times, surviving to this day as part of traditional culture.Autor obrađuje nalaz prapovijesne kamene sjekire-čekića na srednjovjekovnom naseobinskom lokalitetu Baba lokva u Kaštelima
(14. – 17. st.) s aspekta mitološkog poimanja takvih nalaza kao apotropejskih predmeta (amuleti, talismani). Pomoću brojnih etnoloških paralela u Hrvatskoj i Bosni, kao i u široj srednjoeuropskoj regiji, te arheoloških paralela u sjevernoj Hrvatskoj (Ludbreg – Iovia, utvrda Paka) i u Dalmaciji (Begovača – Biljane Donje) dokazuje da je sjekira s Baba lokve bila u funkciji zaštite nastambi od groma ili možda osobne zaštite vlasnika koji ju je nosio. Radi se o običaju koji je preživio kao sirvival iz poganskih prapovijesnih vremena (praslavenskih i praindoeuropskih) i zadržao se do naših dana kao dio

Walt Whitman and Tatsui Baba
No full textAfter the setback of the Civil Rights Movement, Tatsui Baba went over to the U.S. in 1885. In the U.S. he was mostly engaged in lecturing, first in California and later in New York and Philadelphia. Meanwhile he met and made friends with S. Burns Weston, the first president of the Philadelphia Ethical Society. Baba became a member of the Society, probably at his suggestion, and gained an acquaintance with Horace Traubel, the author of With Walt Whitman in Camden, who was one of the founders and an active member of the Society. Before long Baba's consumption got aggravated and he died at the University of Pennsylvania Hospital on November 1, 1888. Baba himself never met Whitman, but Traubel told Whitman about Baba and, finding him deeply interested in Baba, took one of Baba's pamphlets on Japan ("The Political Condition of Japan") to him a couple of months later. Whitman's impressions of the pamphlet seem to have been somewhat complex. He had been favorably inclined toward Japan and had a rather idealized image of her. Japan as he found in Baba's pamphlet, however, was quite different from what he had expected, for Baba's aim in this work was to show and bitterly criticize the despotism and incompetency of the Japanese Government. Whitman said to Traubel, "I read it through-every word of it: there are curious institutions over there which we all ought to know about……(and) we can only come to know from such native sources." This remark shows both his surprise at what Baba had to say and his keen interest in Japan. Unfortunately, he was never to meet this valuable "native source," because Baba had already been dead more than twenty days when Whitman read this pamphlet.5KJ00004530573departmental bulletin pape
