Lithic Collection from the Early Upper Paleolithic Site of Tvarožná X, Czech Republic
All artifact models are freely available for download in the form of 3D PLY files. Specific questions about the site of Tvarožná X, access to the physical collection, and additional materials may be addressed to Dr. Petr Škrdla at the Institute of Archaeology, Brno, Czech Republic ([email protected]). Questions about the data pertinent to the lithic attribute analysis should be addressed to Dr. Gilbert Tostevin ([email protected]) while questions about the microarchaeological study of the site should be addressed to Dr. Gilliane Monnier ([email protected]), both of the University of Minnesota. Refit analyses were accomplished by Dr. Petr Škrdla and raw material identifications were made by Dr. Antonín Přichystal (Department of Geology, Masaryk University, Czech Republic) and Dr. Petr Škrdla. Technical specifics about the 3D modeling process and file structure are provided in the collection’s ReadMe_TvaroznaX_3D.txt file.This dataset is composed of the artifact inventory data and 3D models of the lithic artifact collection from the Early Upper Paleolithic open-air site of Tvarožná-Za školou, also known as Tvarožná X, at roughly 49°11’22.0”N by 16°46’19.6”E, near the modern city of Brno in the Czech Republic. The 3D models represent all of the retouched tools, complete flakes, and cores recovered during the 2008 and 2015 excavation seasons conducted by Dr. Gilbert Tostevin and Dr. Gilliane Monnier of the Department of Anthropology, University of Minnesota, in collaboration with Dr. Petr Škrdla of the Institute of Archaeology, Czech Academy of Science, Brno, Czech Republic. The lithic technology of this assemblage reflects a Bohunician core technology with a large diversity of raw material types, relative to other assemblages attributed to that Early Upper Paleolithic industrial type. The 3D collection is composed of 187 models out of the 645 artifacts (over 2.0 cm in maximal dimension) recovered from the piece-plotting and wet-sieving (through 3x3mm mesh) of the 39.75 square meter excavated portion of this site.United States National Science Foundation Grant Number: BCS-1354095 “The Emergence Of Modern Human Behavior: Excavations at Tvarožná-Za skolou”; Co-PIs: Drs.

Tostevin Blade Flake Models
Dataset consists of one ZIP archive containing 30 virtual flake models, each represented by one OBJ file with an accompanying MTL file, for 60 total files. The flakes were scanned with a NextEngine Inc.’s Desktop 3D Scanner SD (standard definition) or HD (high definition), and then virtually assembled using 3D Systems' Inc. Geomagic Design X and Verify. These models can be viewed with a variety of software, for example http://3dviewer.net/.This dataset consists of flake models representing an experimental archaeological reduction. This Tostevin Blade reduction was knapped by Gilbert B. Tostevin. It and its related flakes are housed at the University of Minnesota's Department of Anthropology Evolutionary Anthropology Labs. These models are of the flakes that were created, or knapped off, as Tostevin made that blade reduction. They were created for the purpose of studying scar directionality in archaeological chipped stone analysis, and formed part of the experimental side of a dissertation by Matthew D. Hunstiger.Hunstiger, Matthew D. (2016). Tostevin Blade Flake Models. Retrieved from the University Digital Conservancy, http://doi.org/10.13020/D64K5D
Lola Lemire Tostevin: A minor perversion.
My thesis examines the work of Ontario writer Lola Lemire Tostevin: five books of poetry, Color of Her Speech (1982), Gyno-Text (1983), Double Standards (1985), 'sophie (1988) and Cartouches (1995), and her first novel, Frog Moon (1994). Although she writes primarily in English, Tostevin's first language is French; I am primarily interested in how she makes use of this fact in both the form and the content of her writing. In examining this linguistic dynamic, I make some use of Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari's Kafka: Toward a Minor Literature. In emphasizing her linguistic and sexual difference, Tostevin "perverts" the traditionalist, male-centred, English language in which she is a "minor" writer. Reacting to painful divisiveness with a "paradigm of multiplicity," she creates a new range of possibilities able to exist within one country, person, or text

The formation of a feminist counterpublic in the poetics of Lola Lemire Tostevin and Daphne Marlatt
In light of Nancy Fraser’s discussion of the formation of feminist counterpublics, this article assesses how Lola Lemire Tostevin and Daphne Marlatt have invented a public language in their writing for articulating the embodied experience of pregnancy. In so doing, I argue that Tostevin and Marlatt not only challenge the exclusion of women’s lives from avant-garde poetics – as diagnosed by Dorothy Lusk in Ogress Oblige – but they also contribute to the formation of a feminist counterpublic for articulating the social, political and physical experience of pregnancy in their writing

Letter from Attorney General Langer to E. H. Tostevin Requesting Investigation of a Liquor Law Violation in Litchville, October 29, 1919.
In this letter, dated October 29, 1919, from North Dakota (ND) Attorney General William Langer to ND State Pool Hall Inspector Earle H. Tostevin Langer requests that Tostevin do everything he possibly can regarding liquor, gambling and cigarette violations in Litchville, North Dakota. Langer includes the text of a letter from Ole J. Belling, Justice of the Peace in Litchville, claiming a current pool hall is in violation of the liquor law along with gambling and the sale of cigarettes. Belling adds that another pool hall is being erected by a gambler and booze fighter, and the license of this pool hall should be rejected.https://commons.und.edu/langer-papers/1340/thumbnail.jp
