The efficacy of the Association of Art Museum Directors’ online antiquities registry
No full textHigh-profile international legal suits and the gradual establishment of legal precedence for repatriation cases in the U.S. under the National Stolen Property Act and the Cultural Property Implementation Act of 1983 have coincided with the Association of Art Museum Directors (AAMD) adopting codes of ethics and recommended guidelines for member museum acquisitions. When the AAMD Subcommittee on the Acquisition of Archaeological Materials and Ancient Art issued its 2008 report, it established the online Registry of New Acquisitions of Archaeological Material and Works of Ancient Art to help member museums efficiently disseminate information about recent acquisitions with incomplete provenance. This is the first systematic analysis of its contents. Using data from 325 listings (as of January 2012) by eleven participating institutions, this paper argues that museums are not sufficiently vigilant about following the AAMD's 2008 guidelines.M.A.Includes bibliographical referencesby Alyssa Cathleen Hage

The Empathetic Author in the Internet Age: The Victorian Serialized Novel and the Internet Serial as Social Experience
No full text“Alyssa’s essay grew out of an assignment for my spring 2017 seminar on George Eliot’s Middlemarch, a novel that is both critically acclaimed and beloved by (many) readers. Rather than requiring everyone to write a research essay on Middlemarch, I invited students to pursue a topic of their choice that related in some way to novels and readers. I encouraged them, if they had something in mind that they’d always wanted to write about, to take this opportunity to do so. Alyssa chose to write this deeply researched, very insightful essay connecting serialized texts then and now.” – Juliette WellsSerialized fiction was the norm in the 19th century, and now, in the 21st, it’s making a comeback. This paper explores the differences between serialization then and now, paying special attention to the impacts of author-reader interaction. With serial publication, the author and reader communicate during the writing process, but between the 19th and 21st centuries, the purposes and consequences of these communications vary. In the 19th century, flagging magazine sales could be the death sentence to a novel-in-progress; this paper asks how the content of those novels had to adapt itself to minimize the risk of being dropped. Today, the Internet has opened the door to serialization as an alternative to traditional publishing; this paper asks which authors, demographically, take the serialization versus traditional route, and how author-reader interaction has created a print culture of empathy that many find lacking in traditional publishing.
My interest in this topic is personal, as co-writer of the web serial Prairie Song. As I made connections in online serialization, I realized how under-researched Internet serialization is as a contemporary print culture. I wanted to explore the motivations and outcomes of Internet serialization as compared to our cultural baseline for serialized fiction: the works of Dickens, Eliot, and their contemporaries.https://blogs.goucher.edu/verge/the-empathetic-author-in-the-internet-age-the-victorian-serialized-novel-and-the-internet-serial-as-social-experience
