Evidence from near-death experience for the existence of consciousness outside the brain
No full textThis paper discusses near-death experience in terms of evidence for consciousness existing outside the brain. The number of near-death experiences has significantly increased over the past few decades due to the advances in defibrillation and CPR techniques. This has made it possible to do Prospective studies in hospitals in an attempt to correlate psychological, physiological and pharmacological causes for near-death experience. Four arguments for evidence of consciousness outside the brain are reviewed and examples from Retrospective studies are given. They are the consistency, reality, paranormal and transformation elements. Retrospective studies provide evidence that near-death experiences have similar elements regardless of demographic data, but the details of the events are not verifiable. Prospective studies carried out in hospitals in Great Britain, America and the Netherlands can confirm through medical records and witnesses that cardiac arrest survivors have conscious experiences during unconsciousness when their brain is dysfunctional. Examples from these studies provide evidence that consciousness exits outside the brain. However, the dying brain hypothesis and the hallucination hypothesis are also looked at as an explanation for these experiences.M.A.L.S.Includes bibliographical referencesby Marianne S Sheeha
Modernism à la Mode: A Presentation on Fashion and Literature
No full textThe Department of English and Communications Studies and the School of Liberal Arts present a panel discussion about fashion and literature with special guest Elizabeth Sheehan, author and professor at Oregon State University.Dr. Elizabeth Sheehan, an assistant professor of English and Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies at Oregon State University, is the author of Modernism a la Mode: Fashion and the Ends of Literature (Cornell University Press, 2018), and co-editor of Cultures of Femininity in Modern Fashion. She has produced groundbreaking publications on modernism, fashion, feminist theory, race, affect, photography, and magazines.Modernism à la Mode argues that fashion describes why and how literary modernism matters in its own historical moment and ours. Bringing together texts, textiles, and theories of dress, Elizabeth Sheehan shows that writers, including Virginia Woolf, D.H. Lawrence, W.E.B. Du Bois, Nella Larsen, and F. Scott Fitzgerald, turned to fashion to understand what their own stylized works could do in the context of global capital, systemic violence, and social transformation. Modernists engage with fashion as a mood, a set of material objects, and a target of critique, and, in doing so, anticipate and address contemporary debates centered on the uses of literature and literary criticism amidst the supposed crisis in the humanities. A modernist affect with a purpose, no less. By engaging modernism à la mode—that is, contingently, contextually, and in light of contemporary concerns—this book offers an alternative to the often-untenable distinctions between strong or weak, suspicious or reparative, and politically activist or quietist approaches to literature, which frame current debates about literary methodology. As fashion helps us to describe what modernist texts do, it enables us to do more with modernism as a form of inquiry, perception, and critique. Fashion and modernism are interwoven forms of inquiry, perception, and critique, writes Sheehan. It is fashion that puts the work of early twentieth-century writers in conversation with 21st-century theories of emotion, materiality, animality, beauty, and history
