'The Cloud of Unknowing': its inheritance and its inheritors
No full textThe thesis attempts a portrait of The Cloud in the context of its
position in the history of Christian mysticism. That the
anonymous work owed much to spiritual writers of the preceding
twelve hundred years is not debatable; what it owed maybe
slightly less obvious. The Cloud is essentially a work of
Dionysian mysticism, and various writers within that tradition
who may have influenced or affected the teaching of The Cloud are
examined. At the same time, however, the anonymous writer owes
much to the western tradition of Augustinian theology, and the
role of this, complementary to the Dionysian mysticism, is also
considered. In Chapter II we look at the theological doctrine
underlying the mystical doctrine of the Cloud corpus. Chapter
III has two major parts, both concerned with the influence of
The Cloud on the subsequent development of spiritual writing in
England. The first considers the relationship with Walter
Hilton. The second examines aspects of Puritan thought which may
indicate that the influence of The Cloud, after the Reformation,
was not restricted to Catholic thought
A Study of Direct Author Subvention for Publishing Humanities Books at Two Universities: A Report to the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation by Indiana University and University of Michigan
No full textThis report was produced as the main deliverable from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation Grant 41400692, “A Study of Direct Author Subvention for Publishing Humanities Books at Two Universities.” The Indiana University team led by PI Carolyn Walters, consisted of Jason Baird Jackson, Scott Smart, Nick Fitzgerald, Gary Dunham and Shayna Pekala. The University of Michigan team led by PI James Hilton consisted of Paul Courant, Sidonie Smith, Meredith Kahn, Charles Watkinson, Jim Ottaviani, and Aaron McCollough. Lead authorship of the different sections in this report is indicated in the opening paragraphs.This white paper presents recommendations about how a system of monographic publication fully funded by subventions from authors’ parent institutions might function, based on research activities supported by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation at Indiana University and the University of Michigan. While the contributors present a strong argument for implementing such an “author subvention” system, they describe a number of challenges and potential unintended consequences. Particular issues discussed include how to determine which publishers would be eligible for support, how best to support untenured faculty, and how to avoid disenfranchising scholars at less well-funded institutions.Andrew W.

Photosynthesis in high definition
No full textPhotosynthesis is the foundation for almost all known life, but quantifying it at scales above a single plant is difficult. A new satellite illuminates plants’ molecular machinery at much-improved spatial resolution, taking us one step closer to combined ‘inside–outside’ insights into large-scale photosynthesis

Managing Digital Assets in a Collaborative Environment, 2016
No full textThis file consists of the slides for a presentation at the joint Annual Meeting for the Society of Georgia Archivists and the Society of Florida Archivists, held in Savannah, Georgia. The presentation focuses on the collaborative approach taken by members of the AUC Robert W. Woodruff Library, in both the Digital Services Department and the Archives Research Center, to build a digital preservation program. Topics discussed include the formation of the Digital Preservation Working Group, the ongoing activities of the ArchivesSpace Working Group, and steps taken to maximize the skills and interaction of staff throughout the AUC Woodruff Library.Delivered as part of a panel session, titled "Practical Tools for Managing Born Digital Collections and Managing Digital Assets in a Collaborative Environment," on October 13, 2016, at the Hilton Desoto Hotel in Savannah, Georgia
Late Pleistocene and Holocene landscape evolution, depositional subsystems, and stratigraphy in the lower Illinois River Valley and adjacent central Mississippi River Valley
No full textThe Illinois Valley is a critical link between major late Pleistocene geomorphic systems in the central United States."A late Farmdalian--early Woodfordian glaciofluvial--catastrophic flood subsystem was characterized by (1) early aggradation on the order of 20-25 m between about 26,000 and 19,500 B.P. in response to glaciation in the upper Mississippi Valley; (2) drainage diversion of the Mississippi River to its present valley about 19,500 B.P. and reworking and net incision of the valley train in the Illinois Valley for the remainder of the late Woodfordian as the Lake Michigan Lobe downwasted and retreated; (3) catastrophic glacial lake outburst floods (""Kankakee Torrent"") between 16,000 and 15,500 B.P. triggered by large influx into proglacial lakes of meltwater from a subglacial reservoir in the Lake Michigan Basin during the Haeger glacial phase of the Lake Michigan Lobe."A terminal Woodfordian lacustrine subsystem existed in the Illinois Valley and other central Mississippi Valley tributaries between about 13,400 and 12,200 B.P.Following an episode of very early Holocene (9800-9700 B.P.) incision and terrace formation in response to downcutting in the Mississippi Valley caused by the latest discharge from Lake Agassiz, and an initial phase of lacustrine sedimentation in a valley-wide lake in response to Mississippi Valley fluctuations, the Illinois River developed a set of natural levees at about the altitude of modern natural levees. During the remainder of the Holocene, the Illinois River remained a sluggish stable river of small sinuosity and gradient under the combined influence of inheritance of an incised channel of small sinuosity, backflooding and aggradation by the Mississippi River, cohesive bank material, and possibly favorable crustal tilting. Broad valley areas below terraces evolved from relatively deep perennial lateral lakes to emergent floodplains between about 8500 and 3000 B.P. as material derived from extensive erosion of loess off the surrounding uplands was deposited in valley lakes and alluvial fans. Many tributary and main valley landscape components were modified by a brief period of increased runoff and flooding between 3000 and 2500 B.P. Shallow semi-permanent and intermittent backwater lakes with limited overbank sedimentation characterized the very latest Holocene valley environments.

Quaternary geology and glacial history of the Haliburton region, south central Ontario, Canada: A model for glacial and proglacial sedimentation
No full textThe pattern of glacigenic sedimentation in the Haliburton region suggests that stagnation is an important element in the regional style of deglaciation in areas of moderate bedrock relief (50-150 m), such as the shield terrane of southern Ontario. The record of subglacial processes and sub-ice environments suggests that stagnation began subglacially during active ice-margin retreat. The style of proglacial sedimentation suggests that topographically controlled subglacial drainage systems were the primary mechanism of sediment delivery to the ice-margin, and the prevalence of ice-contact terraces within these deposits indicates that deposition occurred on and around stagnating ice masses.It is hypothesized that deglaciation occurred by stagnation-zone retreat. Bedrock topography was an important control in the stagnation process, as ice blocks were trapped within bedrock basins of all sizes. Four stages of deglaciation and sedimentation have been recognized: (1) ice sheet thinning, subglacial stagnation of entrapped basal ice, development of topographically controlled subglacial drainage systems, and till deposition; (2) active ice retreat, isolation of ice blocks at the ice-margin, and deposition of high level kame and ice-contact diamicton terraces; (3) downwashing of ice blocks, establishment of regional drainage routes and inundation by proglacial lakes, and proglacial basin-fill sedimentation; (4) post-glacial modification and terracing, and renewed clastic sedimentation within modern lakes.Elevations of shoreline features within the Gull River valley, indicate that an arm of Main Lake Algonquin extended northward from the Kirkfield outlet area into the Haliburton region. Exponential projection of the Main Algonquin water plane from the Kirkfield area, demonstrates that the water plane projected by previous workers is a composite feature comprising progressively younger shorelines from north to south. Therefore, the slopes of previous water plane projections reflect progressively slower uplift rates from north to south producing an apparent flattening of the curve in the zone of assumed isostatic stability, south of the Algonquin 'hinge-line'.Made available in DSpace on 2011-05-07T13:50:54Z (GMT).
