Chiron return
In astrology, the planet Chiron represents the seemingly incurable wound. In the general sense, Chiron represents nothing less than the grand wound of human existence, of incarnate being itself. In a more specific sense, Chiron represents one’s own particular and persistent suffering. In other words, the chronic vulnerabilities shaped by one’s own unique biography, especially as connected to the mother, or more precisely, as connected to a profound wounding related to the loss of the mother. Chiron has a fifty year orbit, meaning that on one’s fiftieth birthday Chiron returns to the place in the sky it occupied at the time of one’s birth. For most, the Chiron return will be a once in a lifetime event. The Chiron return is thus the perfect opportunity to revisit the origins of the seemingly incurable wound as related to the loss of the mother. Chiron Return is a memoir organized around the rape and murder of a mother. The Chiron Return of the daughter, as she approaches her fiftieth birthday, prompts a return to the scene of the crime, both metaphorical and literal, as she seeks to understand more fully the circumstances surrounding the death of her mother.M.F.A.by Dawn Cecile Wals

The Cult of Saint Cecile, a Virgin and Martyr in Polish Religious Songs Exemplified by Songs of J. Łuciuk, M. Świerzyński, A. Chlondowski and Z. Piasecki
The contemporary religious songs in honour of Saint Cecile presented in this work prove that the cult of the Saint Virgin and Martyr is still prevailing in the Catholic Church. The article describes the life of Saint Cecile and provides a brief history of her cult. Presentation of songs in honour of this Patron of music constitutes an essential part of the study. The author begins with an analysis of their melodic aspects focusing, among others, on the kinds of melodies and intervallic scales. The article discusses also rhythmicity and the lyrics of the presented works . It is worth emphasizing that these songs might be used during celebration of Eucharistic Liturgy on the Day of Saint Cecile as well as during other services held in honour of the Roman Martyr
Art Inuit : Formes de l'Ame et Représentations de l'Etre.: Histoire de l'art et anthropologie
Relying on extensive field work, both in remote Arctic communities and outpost camps, and inside Canadian art collections, Cecile Pelaudeix's book presents a critical analysis of the Western perception of Inuit art, the theoretical assumptions underlying art history and anthropology discourse, and proposes a renewed interpretation of Kenojuak Ashevak's work (1959-2002), as well as a new understanding of contemporary Inuit art works at large. The author accords art work a deep meaning by revealing, in a wide range of Inuit art works, an expression of the Inuit soul, an "intensity of being" named tarniq for human beings, which is used to affirm a specific identity, in particular when it comes to feminine works. The method relies mainly on Aby Warburg's iconology. Cecile Pelaudeix shows the limits of a model of linear temporality where cultural time and natural time artificially coincide, arguing that such a model does not allow for a convincing articulation of art and history - as Panofsky had proven - and demonstrates the pertinence of an approach that refers to a heterogeneous conception of time. In a first part, the author shows that the process of analyzing, marketing, and displaying Inuit prints reproduce the western motif of the origin and death of art, familiar to modernism. In a second part, the author examines the relation between cultural time and historical time before relying on Warburg's concept of Nachleben and the anthropological definition of sources, to focus on Kenojuak Ashevak's work. Pelaudeix reveals the meaning of beauty in Kenojuak's works, and shows how the artist's prints are anchored in an Inuit shared vision of the world as well as in the innovative way she promotes the Inuit feminine world and explores deeply the dynamic notions of duality, duel and duos. The third part of the book addresses the question of singularity and diversity in art history: the author extends the method to the analysis of other Inuit artists' work. The book concludes on the relevance of the method in understanding what Féneon called "les arts lointains" ("remote arts"), their singularity which cannot be reduced to a fantasized essentialism, and allows for a new approach to art history, a reconfiguration of its own artistic geography

Maternity Healthscapes: Conceptualization and Index Development
Objectives: This article provides a conceptualization and an index of the multidimensional concept of maternity healthscapes (MHS). Background: Healthscape has emerged as a potential key aspect to improve patient experience. Surprisingly, there has been little effort to delineate the concept of MHS from a design perspective, while maternity wards have unique characteristics and particular challenges. Indeed, patients in maternity wards are usually not acutely ill but can feel highly vulnerable due to the pain, stress, and the many uncertainties surrounding labor and delivery-which can heighten patients' need for intimacy, supporter comfort, and additional supporting services. Thus, healthscapes need to be designed to account for the specificities of childbearing and needs of those patients and their family. Methods: A multidisciplinary literature review and 39 in-depth interviews were conducted with various stakeholders-mothers, midwives, heads of midwives, and chief executives. Results: The authors develop a conceptualization to establish a comprehensive understanding of the dimensionality of MHSs. Based on that comprehensive conceptualization, the authors develop an index providing a census of the aspects in the MHS that various stakeholders-such as healthcare providers, designers, and architects-should take into account when conceiving MHS. Conclusions: Healthcare providers, designers, and architects can use this conceptualization and index to closely monitor and measure for evaluations and further improvements of the MHS, thereby enhancing patient experience in maternity wards.The author(s) disclosed receipt of the following financial support for the research, authorship, and/or publication of this article: Bijzonder Onderzoeksfonds UHasselt/ULi`ege
