Abstrak: Saat ini di wilayah Jawa, keris masih dianggap sebagai sesuatu yang disucikan, disucikan, jimat, sakti, dan sesuatu yang memiliki kekuatan luar biasa. Dengan cara ini, orang percaya bahwa keris dapat mempengaruhi karir, kesehatan, dan karakter peserta didik oleh guru (Sang Guru). Penjelasan bagaimana fenomena itu bisa terjadi dibahas dalam trans-kepribadian, pendidikan psikologi, metafisika, dan budaya. Orang menganggap perannya baik sebagai media pembelajaran yang cocok untuk pendidikan karakter di masa lalu dan sebagai bantuan warisan budaya luhung (Indah) yang diakui oleh UNESCO. Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk memandang dan menempatkan keris secara proporsional sebagaimana mestinya: sebagai kaca benggala penggunaan media pembelajaran modern dalam pendidikan karakter yang harus lebih baik. Tulisan ini kesimpulan dari observasi partisipan yang dilakukan dalam waktu yang cukup lama di lingkungan yang relevan; penjelasannya terutama didasarkan pada beberapa pengalaman peneliti setelah melewati meditasi yang diperpanjang.Nowadays, in the Java region, keris is still considered as something which is sacred, holy, amulets, magic, and something which has extraordinary power. This way, people believe that keris can influence career, health, and learner’s character by the teacher (Sang Guru). The explanation of how that phenomenon can happen is discussed under trans-personality, psychological education, metaphysics, and cultures. It regards its role both as a suitable learning medium for the character education in the past and as an aid luhung (Beautiful) culture heritage admitted by UNESCO. This paper aims to proportionally regard and place keris as it should be: as kaca benggala (mirror) of the use of modern learning media in character education, which has to be better. This paper is not a common-sense, but an inference of a participant observation conducted in a long enough time in a relevant environment; the explanation is mainly based on some experience of the researcher after passing through an extended meditation. Hopefully, our future generation can see the authentic keris, not only as a picture – the way they now see Javanese tiger – and they do not have to go to museums in neighboring countries.

This paper focuses on the fact that the common sense assumption underlying everyday life in a Home for the Aged is the antithesis of the common sense assumption operating in most normal social life, on the outside. The implications of this fact are infinite and ironic. In essence, the Home is oriented toward the least competent. Although typically one tends to think of the advantages of being competent, a significant structural feature of Home life is the way in which being a competent member can work against inmates, as such behavior is, in a very real sense inappropriate, atypical and unprepared for. The following material is based on two years participant observation research in a Home for the Aged in Ontario, Canada.

This article examines the problem of what to wear among Tibetans in Qinghai, China. Starting with recent media coverage, which reported how Tibetan traditional attire is becoming a powerful political statement, I will attempt to illustrate how the dramatic transformations in the way Tibetans dress are not a new phenomenon but an ongoing process of the past fifty years. From the analysis of people’s narratives and extended participant observation, it emerges that the choice of garments is of real concern to many Tibetan people as it communicates messages about the self and their position in the world. I contend that Tibetan men especially have strategically taken to wearing Western-style suits in an attempt to enact Han Chinese economic success.

At a time when the Union between Scotland and England is once again under the spotlight, Remembering the Past in Nineteenth-Century Scotland examines the way in which Scotland’s national heroes were once remembered as champions of both Scottish and British patriotism. Whereas 19th-century Scotland is popularly depicted as a mire of sentimental Jacobitism and kow-towing unionism, this book shows how Scotland’s national heroes were once the embodiment of a consistent, expressive and robust view of Scottish nationality. Whether celebrating the legacy of William Wallace and Robert Bruce, the reformer John Knox, the Covenanters, 19th-century Scots rooted their national heroes in a Presbyterian and unionist view of Scotland’s past. Examined through the prism of commemoration, this book uncovers collective memories of Scotland’s past entirely opposed to 21st-century assumptions of medieval proto-nationalism and Calvinist misery. Detailed studies of 19th-century commemoration of Scotland’s national heroes Uncovers an all but forgotten interpretation of these ‘great Scots’ Shines a new light on the mindset of nineteenth-century Scottish national identity as being comfortably Scottish and British Overturns the prevailing view of Victorian Scottishness as parochial, sentimental tartanry

The world-wide use of scleral contact lenses has dramatically increased over the past 10 year and has changed the way that we manage patients with corneal irregularity. Successfully fitting them can be challenging especially for eyes that have significant asymmetries of the cornea or sclera. The future of scleral lens fitting is utilizing corneo-scleral topography to accurately measure the anterior ocular surface and then using software to design lenses that identically match the scleral surface and evenly vault the cornea. This process allows the practitioner to efficiently fit a customized scleral lens that successfully provides the patient with comfortable wear and improved vision.

This article examines the development of Wagnerism in late-nineteenth-century Spain, focusing on how it became an integral part of Catalan nationalism. The reception of Wagner's music and ideas in Spain was determined by the country's uneven economic development and the weakness of its musical and political institutions—the same weaknesses that were responsible for the rise of Catalan nationalism. Lack of a symphonic culture in Spain meant that audiences were not prepared to comprehend Wagner's complexity, but that same complexity made Wagner's ideas acceptable to Spanish reformers who saw in the composer an exemplar of the European ideas needed to fix Spanish problems. Thus, when Wagner's operas were first staged in Spain, the Teatro Real de Madrid stressed Wagner's continuity with operas of the past; however, critics and audiences engaged with the works as difficult forms of modern music. The rejection of Wagner in the Spanish capital cleared the way for his ideas to be adopted in Catalonia. A similar dynamic occurred as Spanish composers tried to meld Wagner into their attempts to build a nationalist school of opera composition. The failure of Tomás Bréton's Los amantes de Teruel and Garín cleared the way for Felip Pedrell's more successful theoretical fusion of Wagnerism and nationalism. While Pedrell's opera Els Pirineus was a failure, his explanation of how Wagner's ideals and nationalism could be fused in the treatise Por nuestra música cemented the link between Catalan culture and Wagnerism.

Abstract Are historic sites and house museums destined to go the way of Oldsmobiles and floppy disks?? Visitation has trended downwards for thirty years. Theories abound, but no one really knows why. To launch a discussion of the problem in the pages of The Public Historian, Cary Carson cautions against the pessimistic view that the past is simply passéé. Instead he offers a ““Plan B”” that takes account of the new way that learners today organize information to make history meaningful.
