Pedetemptim progrediensis… Lucretius and Morgan
No full textAutorka wykorzystuje w artykule metodę porównawczą w jej wariancie filologicznym by wskazać istotne podobieństwa między myślą Lukrecjusza i Morgana w zakresie ujmowania rozwoju ludzkiej kultury jako całości. Zestawia „katalog wynalazków” oraz opisy zawarte w V księdze De rerum natura… Lukrecjusza z „epokami etnicznymi” wyróżnionymi przez Lewisa Henry’ego Morgana w Społeczeństwie pierwotnym… Oprócz kryteriów ich wyróżnienia oraz celów badawczych wskazanych przez autora Ligi... istotne są również używane przez niego pojęcia powolnego, stopniowego rozwoju (development) oraz postępu. Ważny jest także problem skali umysłu (scale of mind) i rozumu, jako czynników umożliwiających rozwój człowieka i jego kultury. Pod uwagę zostały wzięte zarówno bezpośrednie nawiązania do filozoficznego traktatu, jak i podobieństwa wymagające rekonstrukcji dokonywanej na podstawie drobiazgowej lektury obu dzieł: starożytnego i dziewiętnastowiecznego.In this article author uses a comparative method in its philological variant in order to point out significant similarities between the thoughts of Lucretius and Morgan in scope of taking human cultural development as a whole. She juxtaposes “catalog of inventions” and other descriptions included in Lucretius’ book V De rerum natura with “ethical periods” distinguished by Lewis Henry Morgan in Ancient society. Apart from the criterion of their distinction and research objectives, indicated by the author of The League of Iroquois there are important concepts of slow, gradual development and progress, as well as the problem of the scale of mind and reason, as a factor allowing for both human and cultural development. Taken under consideration here, were both direct references to the philosophical treatise as well as similarities, which required reconstruction on basis of meticulous study of both the ancient and nineteenth-century texts

No full textArtykuł jest próbą analizy terminu legendary literature pojawiającego się w League of the Ho-de’-no-sau-nee or Iroquois Lewisa Henry’ego Morgana. Autorka rozważa poszczególne elementy tworzące legendarną literaturę: bajki (fables), legendy (legends) i przekazy historyczne (historical traditions) oraz ich znaczenie dla funkcjonowania kultury irokeskiej według Morgana. Otrzymany w wyniku analizy schemat obrazuje wzajemne położenie wobec siebie tych elementów oraz ich funkcję w wyobrażeniach Irokezów.This article attempts to analyse the therm legendary literature which appears in Lewis Henry Morgan’s League of the Ho-de’-no-sau-nee or Iroquois. Author considers individual elements forming the legendary literature: fables, legends and historical traditions and their meaning for operation of the Iroquois culture according to Morgan. The scheme obtained as result of the analysis illustrates the mutual position of those elements towards each other and their function in the Iroquois imagery
Traditional tales and contemporary art to promote multiple literacies
No full textStorytelling-based arts projects offer a universal and inclusive pedagogy; challenging prejudices, celebrating diversity and promoting tolerance and resilience in participants. In addition they assist in the development of receptive and expressive language skills, provide a credible basis for understanding folklore, cultural traditions and social values, as well as offering a sound foundation for the pursuit of, and competency in, reading and writing. The contention that art and storytelling are global languages, lies at the heart of the storytelling based arts projects conducted by Australian storyteller, author and musician, Morgan Schatz Blackrose and Swiss Australian artist Roman W. Schatz

Metaphors of Intellectual Capital of a County
No full textGareth Morgan w swojej przełomowej książce pt. Obrazy organizacji zapoczątkował nowy nurt w myśleniu o organizacjach, nazwany postmodernizmem w zarządzaniu. Chociaż jego prace otworzyły wiele nowych możliwości dla badaczy organizacji, wydaje się, że nie zostały w pełni wykorzystane, szczególnie, jeśli chodzi o badania nad kapitałem intelektualnym. Celem niniejszego opracowania jest choćby częściowe wypełnienie tej luki. Autor zdefiniował 14 metafor kapitału intelektualnego powiatu, stworzonych zgodnie z filozofią zaproponowaną przez G. Morgana. Metafory mają na celu umożliwienie lepszego zrozumienia kapitału intelektualnego w instytucjach publicznych, w tym przypadku w powiatach. Metafory opracowane przez autorów zostały ocenione w trakcie badań empirycznych przez wybranych ekspertów, którzy wyrazili swoje opinie na temat ich trafności opisowej. Jako podsumowanie każda z metafor otrzymywała ocenę odzwierciedlającą jej zdolności do wyjaśniania (subiektywnej) rzeczywistości. Rzeczywistość oczywiście jest rozumiana jako subiektywne odzwierciedlenie poglądów respondentów. Z założenia metafora odnosi się do doświadczeń ludzi, nie do rzeczywistości.Gareth Morgan in his seminal book “Image of Organization” gave birth to a new school of management, which is now called ‘postmodernism in management’. Although it opened up a number of research opportunities, it seems that they have not been fully utilized, especially in the research on intellectual capital. This paper aims to fill this void. The authors proposes a set of 14 metaphors developed according to Gareth Morgan’s school of thought. The metaphors are intended to provide a better understanding of intellectual capital of a public entity, in this case a county. The metaphors developed by the author have been evaluated by experts who expressed their opinions on the quality of the metaphors. During the empirical study each of the metaphors was evaluated as far as its quality is concerned. In conclusion, each of the metaphors is given a rating according to it explanatory value
Hydrologic Controls on Ecosystem Structure and Function in the Great Dismal Swamp
No full textForested peatlands of the Great Dismal Swamp (GDS) have been greatly altered since colonial times, motivating recent restoration efforts. Community structure and function were hydrologically altered by 19th and 20th century ditches installed to lower water levels and enable early timber harvesting. Contemporary forest communities are comprised of maturing remnants from selective timber harvesting that ended in the early 1970s. Red maple (Acer rubrum) has become the dominant species across GDS, encroaching on or replacing the historical mosaic of cypress (Taxodium spp.)/tupelo (Nyssa spp.), Atlantic white-cedar (Chamaecyparis thyoides), and pocosin (Pinus spp.). Moreover, peat soil has been exposed to more unsaturated conditions resulting in carbon loss through decomposition and increased peat fire frequency and severity. Installation of ditch control structures aim to control drainage and re-establish historical hydrology, vegetation communities, peat accretion rates, and fire regime. To help inform restoration and management, we conducted two complimentary studies to test hypotheses regarding hydrologic influences on vegetation, peat depths, and peat fire vulnerability. First, we found thicker peat, lower maple importance, and higher species richness at wetter sites (e.g., higher mean water levels). In our second study, we evaluated the integrated effects of peat properties and water level dynamics on peat fire vulnerability. We found decreased burn vulnerability with increased wetness, suggesting that the driest sites were always at risk to burn, whereas the wettest sites never approached fire risk conditions. Together our findings demonstrate strong hydrologic controls on GDS ecosystem structure and function, thereby informing water level management for restoration goals.Master of ScienceForested wetlands, like the Great Dismal Swamp (GDS) in eastern Virginia, provide valuable ecosystem services, including wildlife habitat, biodiversity, water quality and storage, carbon storage, and many others. Many of these ecosystems have been lost to land conversion, or hydrologically altered. Ditches installed to lower water levels and enable timber harvesting altered GDS ecosystem services. Lowered water levels changed the forest from a historical mosaic of diverse tree species to a more homogeneous forest dominated by one tree species, red maple. Moreover, GDS’s organic soil (peat) has been exposed to drier conditions resulting in carbon loss through decomposition and increased peat fire frequency and severity. To restore GDS ecosystem services, installation of water control structures in the ditches aim to control drainage and re-establish historical water levels (hydrology), forest cover, peat soil development rates, and fire regime. To help guide this hydrology management, we conducted two complimentary studies to test hypotheses regarding hydrology’s influences on vegetation, peat soil, and peat fire vulnerability. First, we found thicker peat soil, lower red maple prevalence, and more vegetation species at wetter sites. In our second study, we evaluated the integrated effects of peat soil properties and water level dynamics on peat fire vulnerability. We found decreased fire vulnerability with increased wetness, suggesting that the driest site was always at risk to burn, whereas the wettest site never approached conditions for fire risk. Together our findings demonstrate hydrology’s strong controls on GDS ecosystem services, thereby informing water level management for restoration goals
