Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

Idealist Fictions: Crossing F. H. Bradley and Samuel Butler
No full textIn this essay, I examine the relationship between late Victorian idealist philosophy and the development of fiction. More specifically, I examine the ontological arguments of British Idealist F. H. Bradley and author Samuel Butler, showing how idealism and fiction are intertwined in their writings, creating a cross-genre, hybrid style that I refer to as “idealist fiction.” By focusing on the ways in which both Bradley and Butler radically disintegrate human subjectivity by extending it into its vibrant, agential natural surrounds, I contend that Victorian idealist fictions offer powerful ethical and aesthetic concepts that can broaden our understanding of Victorian culture, shedding light on the development of the novel in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries
Il dolore comune. Butler dopo Kant
No full textThe author shows how the political reflexion of Butler is a radicalisation of the Kantian one. The theme of pain ,which Heidegger already debated on a rational and non-emotional basis, constitutes for the philosopher the point from which you start to think about the community today
Studies of Artists: An Annotated Directory
Get PDFThis annotated directory documents more than 80 different studies of artist populations. The directory provides information about how the researcher in each study has defined the artist and identified the population. Studies are arranged by type of artist population and, within each category, by study date. Each entry indicates, in so far as possible from available materials, the study investigator, the artist population, the way in which artists were identified, sampling procedures, number of respondents and response rates, and publications based on the study. This directory should provide researchers and other interested parties with a range of definitions, identification methods, and sampling procedures currently used in studies of artists. The introduction to the directory provides a critical overview of the numerous methods for identifying and defining "artists."

As You Like The Quem Quaeritis Trope
Get PDFThe title of Shakespeare\u27s first major comedy, As you Like it, lends itself to word puzzlements, even though it is doubtfully that the author meant by this that everyone should take the title or the play itself simply as he or she sees it. The Epilogue reminds us of that, even as Rosalind urged the audience to like as much of this play as please you (12-13) {1}, so the dramatist himself meant that he was writing as he hoped people would like it
Leodonta Butler 1870
No full textLeodonta Butler, 1870 Leodonta is most closely related to Pereute (Braby et al. 2007). Robert (1987) briefly reviewed the species-level classification of the genus and recognized six species, although he questioned the status of one taxon. Lamas (2004) subsequently recognized only five species, treating L. chiriquensis (Staudinger, 1884) as a subspecies of L. tellane (Hewitson, 1860). Leodonta occurs from Costa Rica (D’Abrera 1981; Robert 1987; DeVries 1987) to Venezuela, and along the Andes to Peru and Bolivia (Robert 1987; Constantino et al. 2004; Lamas 2004). Most species occur in cool to cold montane forests between 1200 m and 3200 m a.s.l. (though more generally between 1500 m and 2800 m a.s.l.) on the eastern slopes of the Andes and adjacent mountain ranges of northern South America (Constantino et al. 2004). The life history has not previously been reported for any of the species in the genus, although several authors predicted that the immature stages of Leodonta would be associated with mistletoes (DeVries 1987; Constantino et al. 2004). In addition to our reared material of the immature stages, we examined a series of pupal exuviae of L. tagaste (C. Felder and R. Felder, 1859) and L. tellane preserved in the BMNH and INBio collections, respectively. The BMNH material was collected from Ecuador in 1886 and comprises four specimens in poor condition. One specimen is labelled as follows: “ BMNH DES Rh. 3164 Leodonta tagaste. main coll.”, “ZAMORA Equater mars 86”, “32.21. Ex Coll. Dognin. 1921”, “Joicey Bequest. Brit. Mus. 1934–120”; the three other specimens are labelled similarly except with “Rh. 3165” on first label for one pupa, and “Rh. 3166” for the two other pupae, which are mounted together. The pupal specimens closely resemble L. tellane. Further details of the INBio material for L. tellane are provided below.Published as part of Braby, Michael F. & Nishida, Kenji, 2010, The immature stages, larval food plants and biology of Neotropical mistletoe butterflies (Lepidoptera: Pieridae).
