Katherine Ann Wiley, Work, Social Status, and Gender in Post-Slavery Mauritania

Geophagists are generally defined by culture, social status and gender, and this paper is to identify the chemical elements of the geophagic material called Machu Rumi. The sample was extracted from the center of the geophagic material. Two micrographs were observed, the 1c micrograph contains: O (8.63%), Al (14.85%), SiO2 (33.07%), Fe (5.93%), K (5.36%), Mg (1.37 %) and Ca (0.81%), these elements are characteristics of the clay minerals, the 1d micrograph, contains: oxygen 62.14%, Silicon 37.80% and Aluminum 0.06%, these elements are present in the clay minerals soils. The results of elemental composition and micromorphology reveals the presence of phyllosilicates, SiO2, Fe, K, Mg, Ca, and Al so the consumption of Machu Rumi would contribute to the benefic geophagy.

The Impact

This history of women’s music in the southern United States—one taking into account regional practices—offers new perspectives into class, social aspirations, and gender; it differs substantially from composer-centric narratives. It is the first study to interrogate the impact of the Civil War on women’s music—how it affected repertory, performance circumstances, and careers. The dissimilar women examined here prove that a single, fixed signifier, such as cultural class, social status, parlor music, or domesticity cannot sufficiently account for southern women’s music practices. Gentility provides a more satisfactory explanation by allowing a nuanced examination of southern women—both white and of color—and their musicking.

This study seeks to provide new insights into the development and use of pray in Early Modern English. The study is based on the sociopragmatically annotated Drama Corpus, which combines the drama text samples of three different Early Modern English corpora, comprising a total of 242,561 words from a time span of 1500 to 1760. We investigate the quantitative distribution of the different forms in which pray appears during this period, and the influence of the variables of social status and gender. The aim of the current study is consequently to shed more light on the sociopragmatic nature of pray forms, and to reach a more profound understanding of their use in the Early Modern English period.

The article analyzes the traditional etiquette of Karakalpaks. Special attention is paid to the customs of greeting on meeting and when performing some ceremonial activities. In both cases, the Karakalpak etiquette is based on the moral attitudes and habits of a traditional society. As with other peoples of Central Asia, the principles of age and gender differentiation and reverence for elders come to the fore. Greeting rituals are addressed to the elders and those who have higher social status, taking place within the framework of the institution of hospitality, as a principle of tolerance and benevolence characteristic of the daily and ceremonial life of the people.

This chapter explores the meanings of “youth” and associated politics of masculinity in Kenya from the perspectives of young and poor men in urban settlements. Specifically, the chapter investigates how the idea of “junior manhood” is connected with efforts to become “men” by providing for loved ones in a context of gross inequality, limited opportunities, and high expectations. Using the example of Mathare in Nairobi, the chapter reveals how young and poor men—who try to live up to a social ideal of men as providers through non-criminal and non-violent means—often fail to gain respect and attain a higher social status, and sometimes adopt more violent socio-economic strategies. The analysis provides important insights into generational, class, and gender relations and how these connect to political mobilization, security, and violence.
