Following the Reformation, Catholic families seeking to educate both sons and daughters in their faith faced many challenges. The penal laws proscribed the creation of Catholic schools in England and forbade parents to send children abroad for education. However, such was the determination to provide Catholic schooling that families were prepared to break the laws and meet the expense of fees and travel. The convents established schools for several reasons. For some orders it was part of their religious purpose to educate girls, others saw it as a means of educating future members, and all needed to secure their convents financially and be self-sufficient. Schooling provided varied significantly. This article, drawing mainly on manuscript sources from convents and some of the families with daughters attending convent schools, considers the scope of the provision of girls' education in the ‘exile’ period and offers some preliminary insights into the experience of pupils.

This concluding chapter explains how the ideologies and social practices propelling the social media sphere bear a striking resemblance to contemporary academe. With its staid, ivory tower facade, the academy might seem far removed from the creative industries, a cluster of professions marked by an aura of bohemian cool. But it is much less of a conceptual leap to understand the creation and dissemination of knowledge as a form of cultural work. And many of the same venerated ideals—autonomy, flexibility, the perennial quest to “do what one loves”—seem to animate workers in both arenas. Indeed, academia is unique among professions that fuse the personal identity of their workers so intimately with the work output, which might well be said of the creative industries.

This chapter examines the re-construction of regional and national identities through acting. In doing so, it dissects the performances of Carmelo Gómez and Silvia Munt, two actors made famous for their multiple and iconic Basque roles. By closely examining their performances, the chapter argues that the actors’ false identities articulate a Basqueness that is at once desirable and desiring, fraught with unattainability; that is, the creation of Basque archetypes by non-Basque actors may ultimately render nonexistent whatever potential promise or threat they contain. Going against the presumption that an actor may be able to breach the gap between his or her personal identity and that of the character, the chapter argues instead that their performances will always be inauthentic, that audiences assume this fact, and that this shades cinematic acting in very important ways.

Creative work is best understood as a process of getting lost. Scholarly work is a creative endeavour. And an endeavour requires total attention. On a superficial level, total attention is a demonstration of scholarly seriousness and discipline. On a deeper level, total attention is a necessary effort for successful scholarship. Yet, do we as scholars see getting lost as a necessary precondition for total attention? The authors whose works are showcased in this special issue of China Information add to our appreciation of marginalization as creative endeavour. They do so by means of scholarship highlighting the creation of marginal existence through the application of labels and locators that stick and shift. They do so, moreover, because of their willingness to share their particular experience of getting lost. That experience includes challenges to professional and personal identity when their own status – whether religious, racial, ethnic, or sexual – is called into question.

Fotografi ekspresi merupakan ungkapan jiwa yang mengutamakan ekspresi jati diri pribadi seseorang yang akan diekspresikan dalam karya seni murni. Ide penciptaan karya fotografi ini berawal dari problematika yang sering dijumpai dalam karya fotografi yang tidak mampu memberikan kesan ataupun sensasi yang merespon emosional kepada khalayak ramai. Dari sebab itu timbul kegelisahan penulis untuk menciptakan karya fotografi dengan subjek color splash dengan action figure, dengan adanya warna yang diolah kreatif menjadi color splash yaitu sebuah cipratan warna yang membentuk kedinamisan pola yang tidak terduga yang mampu memunculkan sebuah sensasi yang mengunsung suatu nilai yang pada ujungnya mampu memberikan impresi di dalam perasaan yang merespon emosional ataupun daya ganggu yang dapat diintepretasikan oleh khalayak ramai sesuai dengan pengalaman-pengalaman pribadi. Metode dalam penciptaan ini diawali dengan penggalian ide dan konsep yang dilanjutkan dengan setudi referensi dan eksplorasi yang kemudian diakhiri dengan keputusan eksekusi. Dari penciptaan karya ini sesuatu hal yang didapat yaitu pengaruh warna di setiap karya, dengan menghadirkan warna yang diolah kreatif menjadi suatu bentuk yang artistik didalam sebuah karya, dapat mengatasi sebuah karya agar tidak lagi menjadi suatu karya foto yang berhenti menjadi gambar indah saja. Tetapi dengan adanya warna didalam sebuah karya foto akan memberikan sensasi yang dapat merespon emosional penikmat karya. Photographic expression is an expression of the soul that promotes expression of one's personal identity to be expressed in a fine art.

Abstract Tomasello offers a compelling account of the emergence of humans’ sense of obligation. We suggest that more needs to be said about the role of affect in the creation of obligations. We also argue that positive emotions such as gratitude evolved to encourage individuals to fulfill cooperative obligations without the negative quality that Tomasello proposes is inherent in obligations.
