Historicizing Romantic Sexuality
This volume of Romantic Circles Praxis includes an editor's introduction by Richard C. Sha, essays by Richard C. Sha, Jonathan Loesberg, Elizabeth Fay, Jillian Hedy-Stevenson, Susan S. Lanser, Bradford K. Mudge, Daniel O'Quinn, David M. Halperin, and Andrew Elfenbein.
In How To Do the History of Sexuality, David M. Halperin puts to rest the idea that Michael Foucault meant in the History of Sexuality to separate sexual acts from identity. According to Halperin, Foucault never intended to encourage historians of sexuality to neglect the connections between sexual subjectivities and sexual acts. From this came the idea of creating a volume of essays that would take on the history of sexuality in the Romantic period, and in so doing use Halperin to rethink what we now know to be a pseudo-Foucaultian divorce between acts and identities, a divorce that has made sexual subjectivities before sexology an historical black hole. </p

A Note on Recent Research on the Term the ‘Tatar Yoke’ (Tatarskoe igo)
Research objectives: This essay analyzes and critiques recent research on the genealogy of the expression “Tatar Yoke” (Tatarskoe igo), the standard term for the period of Mongol rule of Rus’, in both Slavic and Latin.
Research materials: This essay is based upon publications from 1984 to the present by Halperin, Ostrowski, Keenan, Rudakov, and Seleznev.
Results and novelty of research: In 1984, Halperin identified the discovery of the earliest appearance of Tatarskoe igo in Slavic dated to the second half of the seventeenth century, made by Lev Dmitriev who did not appreciate its significance. Therefore the term was an anachronism if projected onto thirteenth- to fifteenth-century Rus’. This conclusion remained unchallenged until now. At that time, Halperin did not address the genealogy of the expression in Latin. Ostrowski and Keenan found theoretically the earliest Latin usages (jugum tartarico) in foreign texts from 1521 and 1575. Apparently Ostrowski’s and Keenan’s contributions to the topic escaped the attention of historians in Russia. Rudakov himself found Keenan’s source but failed to notice that it referred not just to the “yoke” but the “Tatar Yoke.” Seleznev has discovered two Latin references from the thirteenth century, one supposedly a translation from a no longer extant Slavic text. Seleznev concludes that the expression “Tatar Yoke” was therefore known at the time and is not an anachronism. The present essay reinterprets the significance of Seleznev’s findings for our understanding of the Latin genealogy of “Tatar Yoke.” The existence of the term in Slavic is suspect, but in Latin clearly it is as old as Tatar rule. However, the significance of both Rudakov’s and Seleznev’s brilliant depiction of how writers both Catholic and Orthodox interpreted the Tatar conquest of Rus’ via analogy with Old Testament narrations of the enslavement of the Hebrews by the Egyptians and the Babylonian Captivity of the Hebrews lies elsewhere. This essay argues that we have to consider that any author familiar with Scripture could easily independently have made the leap from “Yoke” to “Tatar Yoke,” which renders a genealogy of the evolution of the term moot. Historians still need to address how Catholic writers in the thirteenth and sixteenth centuries made that conceptual link, but no Rus’/Russian author did so until the second half of the seventeenth century
La historia política en la renovación historiográfica. El caso de Tulio Halperin Donghi
Fil: Gómez, Analía. Universidad Nacional de Luján. Departamento de Ciencias Sociales; Argentina.Mucho se ha escrito ya sobre Tulio Halperin Donghi. ¿Por qué entonces volver una vez más sobre el oficio de este historiador? ¿Por qué entonces revisitar textos ya comentados y analizados?
Aquí pretendemos analizar a Halperin con el fin de repensarlo en el contexto de la tradición historiográfica en la que inició su tarea como historiador: la llamada renovación o historia social. De ella e se ha dicho que introdujo la historia económica y social a través de metodologías y enfoques renovados. Y si bien esto es cierto no lo es menos que algunos de los historiadores referentes de esta tradición no abandonaron el estudio de temas y problemas propios de la historia política. Creemos que buena parte de las publicaciones de Halperin son un ejemplo de esto último. Es por ello que hemos recortado aquel tramo inicial de la trayectoria de este historiador partiendo de aquellos trabajos publicados desde mediados de la década de 1950, momento en el cual la renovación tuvo lugar en el ámbito universitario, hasta la publicación de Revolución y guerra (1972). Este recorte nos permitirá destacar, el interés del autor por estudiar problemas y temas políticos propios de la primera mitad del siglo XIX, sobre todo sus primeras décadas. Pero además durante aquellos años también se dedicó en distintas publicaciones a temas de su propio presente, que también abordaremos. Finalmente, queremos introducir la discusión que Halperin mantuvo durante aquellos años con el revisionismo, siendo que muchos de sus referentes se dedicaban tanto a la crítica como a la recuperación de un pasado también estudiado por el autor.Much has been written about Tulio Halperin Donghi. So why turn once again to this historian´s work? Why then revisit texts already analysed? We intend to analyse Halperin with the objective of rethinking the context
of the historical tradition in which he began his work as a historian. The so called ´renewal or social history. It has been said that it introduced the economic and social history through renewed methodologies and approaches. Yet many historical referents did not abandon the study of
issues regarding political history. We believe that a large number of his publications are a true example of it. This is why we have extracted the initial section of the historian´s career, taking as reference his published works from the mid 1950´s, when the renewal took place at universities,
up to the publication of Revolución y guerra (1972). Will allow us to highlight the author´s interest in studying problems and political issues from the first half of the 19th century, especially the first decades. During those years, he also addressed the problems of the present time, such as Peronism which will be dealt with here. To conclude, we wish to introduce the discussion that Halperin maintained with the revisionism, as many of his referents not only
dedicated themselves to the criticism but also to the recovery of the past time, also studied by this author
Perspectives of the River Plate around the time of Rosas : an analysis based upon the personal correspondence, private memoirs and published accounts of British settlers, as well as works by creole authors
This thesis draws inspiration from the emergence of cultural studies as an academic
pursuit, in addition to the current renewal of interest in the relationship between
literary works and their socio-cultural milieux, to bring together an assortment of
textual traces pertaining to the River Plate around the era of Juan Manuel de Rosas,
governor of Buenos Aires and de facto dictator of Argentina for most of the period
1829-1852. The main texts analysed range from private documents relating to two
Scottish settler families, through accounts published by British citizens with first-hand
knowledge of the region (Un inglés, Cinco años en Buenos Aires and
Beaumont, Travels in Buenos Ayres and the Adjacent Provinces), to three influential
pieces of early Argentinian literature (Echeverria's El matadero, Mármol's Amalia
and Sarmiento's Facundo). One justification of this apparently eclectic approach lies
in the prominence accorded to the incomer in the thought of liberal Platine
intellectuals, a concern evinced in their literary production.
The methodology involves examining the representation of certain
fundamental topics across this range of written artefacts, observing frequent points of
thematic convergence amongst the various texts. In this fashion, I construct an image
of the River Plate region around the Rosas period, whilst also appraising the degree
to which early British settlers matched the idealized notion of the immigrant present
in liberal creole writings.
The study is divided into four main chapters, supplemented by an
introduction, conclusion and appendix. The first chapter summarizes the historical
context of the young Platine republics; the second deals with the themes of society,
community and family, the third focuses upon religion; the fourth considers
perspectives of politics, dictatorship and civil war. The appendix consists of an
unpublished settler autobiography, a remarkable account of the tribulations faced on
a daily basis in the developing Argentina
Ideas, narrative and politics: Methodological reflections on "Tradición política española e ideología revolucionaria de Mayo" by Tulio Halperin Donghi
Esta propuesta tiene como objetivo analizar algunas cuestiones metodológicas que surgen de examinar la obra Tradición política española e ideología revolucionaria de Mayo de Tulio Halperin Donghi. En especial, observamos la construcción de una narrativa historiográfica que muestra la compleja relación entre las posibilidades que tienen a disposición los sujetos –los agentes– y los condicionantes de los procesos históricos. Por otro lado, este autor presenta un abordaje de las ideas estrechamente ligada al componente político, en particular cuando aparecen acontecimientos que se articulan con pugnas por el poder.This proposal aims to analyze some methodological issues that arise from examining the work Tradición política española e ideología revolucionaria de Mayo by Tulio Halperin Donghi. In particular, we look at the construction of a historiographical narrative that shows the complex relationship between the possibilities available to the subject –agents–and the conditioning factors of the historical process. Furthermore, the author presents an approach to the ideas closely linked political component, particularly when events occur that are articulated with power struggles.Fil: Di Pasquale, Mariano Adrian.

Virtual reality-based conflict resolution: The impact of immersive 360° video on changing view points and moral judgment in the context of violent intergroup conflict
Publisher Copyright: © The Author(s) 2021.We present an experimental study conducted in the context of the Israeli–Palestinian conflict that examined the effect of immersive 360° video on inducing a more critical perception of the ingroup’s actions in the conflict. An immersive experience of a simulated conflict scenario filmed from the outgroup’s point of view led to the judgment of the ingroup actors’ behavior as less moral and less justified compared to watching the same scenario as a two-dimensional video. This effect was not mediated through increased outgroup perspective-taking and empathy but through higher levels of hostile emotions toward the ingroup actors, which in turn were influenced by an increased sense of presence and engagement in the immersive experience. These findings provide initial evidence for the still widely unexplored potential of virtual reality as a new method for conflict resolution.Peer reviewe
