The One

If a catalogue were made of terms commonly used to affirm the adequacy of critical interpretations of works of art, one word certain to be included would be “plausible.” Yet this term is one which has received precious little attention in the literature of aesthetics. This is odd, inasmuch as I find the notion of plausibility central to an understanding of the nature of criticism. “Plausible” is a perplexing term because it can have radically different meanings depending on the circumstances of its employment. ln the following discussion, I will make some observations about the logic of this concept in connection with its uses in two rather different contexts: the context of scientific inquiry on the one hand, and that of aesthetic interpretation on the other. In distinguishing separate senses of “plausible,” I shall provide reason to resist the temptation to imagine that because logical aspects of two different types of inquiry—science and criticism—happen to be designated by the same term, they may to that extent be considered to have similar logical structures.

This paper examines interest-oriented vs. relationship-oriented social network sites in China and their different implications for collective action. By utilizing a structural analysis of the design features and a survey of members of the social networks, this paper shows that the way a social network site is designed strongly suggests the formation and maintenance of different types of social ties. The social networks formed among strangers who share common interests imply different types of collective action, compared to the social networks that aim at the replication and strengthening of off-line relationships.

Abstract Organo- and hydrogels have been proposed in the restoration field to treat different types of surfaces. The possibility to retain solvents and to have a controlled and superficial action allowed to use these materials for the removal of very thin layers applied on ancient historical objects, when the under paint layers are particularly delicate and water sensitive. In the last years, an increased attention has been devoted to the proposal of more healthy products to guarantee the safeguard of the operators. Few attention has been devoted to the development of green methods which foresee the use of renewable and biodegradable materials. The aim of this paper is to test a green organo-gel for the cleaning of water sensitive surfaces like varnished egg tempera paintings. The gel has been tested experimented on mock ups varnished with natural and synthetic materials and has been validated on a small portion of a Cimabue painting for the removal of two varnishes applied on two different test areas of the painting.

Different Types

Reinforced concrete retaining walls have a vertical or sloping stem cast by the base plate. They are considered suitable for a height of 6 m. It resists lateral pressure on the ground by the cantilever action of the stem, plate on the legs and heel plate. The tendency of the wall to slide forward due to lateral pressure on the ground should be investigated, and a safety factor of 1.5 should be provided against slipping. Consolidated retaining walls are best at a height of 6 m. For a greater height, the pressure on the ground due to the preserved filling will be higher due to the effect of the lever arm, the base produces higher moments, which leads to a higher section for designing stability, as well as to the design structures of the structure. In this paper, structural analysis should be performed in the case of wall retention with different types of joints and span. The cantilever retaining wall and the buttress retaining wall are modeled for different seismic zones.

Philosophical Questions

AbstractI address two related questions. First: what value is there in visiting a museum and becoming acquainted with the objects on display? For art museums the answer seems obvious: we go to experience valuable works of art, and experiencing valuable works of art is itself valuable. In this paper I focus on non-art museums, and while these may house aesthetically valuable objects, that is not their primary purpose, and at least some of the objects they house might not be particularly aesthetically valuable at all. Second: to what ontological type or category do museum objects belong? What type of item should be featured on an inventory of a museum collection? I distinguish between typical objects and special objects. While these are different types of object, both, I argue, are abstracta, not concreta. The answer to the second question, concerning the ontological category of special objects, throws new light on various philosophical questions about museums and their collections, including the question about the value of museum experiences. But it also throws light on important questions concerning the preservation and restoration of museum objects.

Arts-related science activities provide unique opportunities to engage students' strengths and motivate different types of learners (Jolly, 2014). Incorporating arts into the discussion of gene expression and microbiology introduces students to a multidisciplinary approach to STEM and provides an opportunity to explore the use of science in different fields such as design, art, and industry. In this protocol extension students create living works of art on agar plates by “painting” with E. coli that express fluorescent proteins of various colors.

Symbolic Distance

Drawing mainly upon the thinking of Kenneth Burke, this essay overviews a few psychological functions performed within dramatic works of art. It shows how dramatic works of art (e.g. novels, plays, films, and even TV shows) operate as subtle modes of applied psychology: they offer different types of therapeutic benefits for those who produce such works and also for those who read them and/or audience members who witness them. I try to bring out how modes of catharsis as well as means of transcendence are afforded by dramatic form within art. Even more specifically stated, I review some of Burke’s ruminations upon his own semiautobiographical novel, Towards a Better Life, and I outline how dramatic works of art provide adequate symbolic distance for sizing up one’s life situations and for facing various challenges that can otherwise be too difficult to face head-on. Through symbolic and artistic maneuvers, which enable kinds of identification, authors and audience members learn to face their demons and gain new psychological resolves and/or vistas of self-understanding.

Cadastral valuation of real estate and its adequacy is important in terms of replenishment of the budget and legal stability in the existence of the property. The article is devoted to the question of realism of cadastral valuation of real estate objects in 2016 using as an example of land teachings of the city of Kursk. The author made a structural analysis of the components of the cadastral value. A number of problems that affect the reliability of the results are revealed. The approaches used in the implementation of the state cadastral assessment, depending on the types of permitted use. Statistical model of cadastral value calculation is shown on the example of Kursk. The main expert factors which were used in calculation of specific indicators of cadastral cost for the allocated types of the permitted use are displayed. The main factors determining, in the end, the dimension of the cadastral value are highlighted. The article reflects the analysis of a detailed study of the cadastral characteristics of the land plots, which are assigned to different types of permitted use and located in different districts of the city of Kursk. Performed a structural analysis and comparison of the cadastral characteristics of the land. The comparative criteria include: the address of the object, cadastral number, the type of permitted use, the result of cadastral valuation of land for 2016, recalculation of cadastral value based on the value of a unit of land, the appearance of the land (in order to visualize improvements). Based on the analysis of multiple data, conclusions about the need to adjust the results of cadastral valuation in respect of the objects under study, the expansion of correlation factors forming specific indicators of cadastral value.
