AbstrakSilat merupakan seni mempertahankan diri yang terkenal dalam kalangan masyarakat Melayu dan tersebar luas di Nusantara. Namun, tidak semua dalam kalangan masyarakat mengetahui tentang adanya proses perubatan secara tradisional di dalam persilatan dan kedua-duanya amat memerlukan antara satu sama lain. Dalam erti kata lain, perubatan tradisional dalam seni silat telah bergerak seiring dengan pembelajaran ilmu silat dan berfungsi sebagai ikhtiar untuk menyembuhkan pelbagai jenis penyakit. Aktiviti perubatan tradisional di dalam persilatan ini juga masih lagi diamalkan di Kelantan, yang juga terkenal dengan ritual perubatan melalui seni persembahan seperti Main Puteri dan Mak Yong. Walau bagaimanapun proses perubatan dalam seni silat yang dikaji berbeza dengan Main Puteri dan Mak Yong di mana ia tidak dipertontonkan di hadapan khalayak ramai. Mengungkap secara lebih mendalam mengenai perubatan dalam seni silat, pengkaji akan menerangkan objektif kajian ini iaitu apakah jenis penyakit yang dialami oleh pesakit dan bagaimana proses perubatan dilakukan oleh gurulatih. Di samping itu, pengkaji telah menjalankan kaedah pemerhatian serta pemerhatian secara ikut serta dan menemubual beberapa orang gurulatih seni silat itu sendiri. AbstractSilat is an art of self-defense that is well known among the Malay community and is widespread throughout the Malay Archipelago. However, the society might not be aware that in silat there is a practice of traditional healing and both need one another. In other words, traditional healing in silat have been moving along with the learning aspect of the martial art and serves as an effort to cure several illnesses suffered by a patient. Silat healing activities are still being practiced in Kelantan, which is known for its traditional healing rituals through the performance of Main Teri and Mak Yong. The healing process in the Seni Silat Pusaka Gayong Malaysia, Kelantan branch is different from Main Teri and Mak Yong and can’t be shown to the public. In looking deeper into the healing process in silat, the researcher analyses the objectives of this study which covered the types of illnesses experienced by patients and how healing processes were done by the ‘gurulatih’. The research was conducted using the participant-observation method and interviews with a few silat ‘gurulatih’

The chapter first defines the status of the diagram that underlies Schizoanalytic Cartographies as a formal diagram of an informal world. As such, it is itself a figure of the various complementarities that are defined within it. Using foldings of the diagram to organize the text, the chapter subsequently provides an in-depth analysis of the relations between and the superpositions of its four functors: Flows, Phyla, Territories and Universes. Next, it presents the diagram’s inherently ecological parameters. By way of tracing the vectors between its various positions, it defines the diagram as a meta-model of the expressive relation between the world and its creatures. After showing Guattari’s recalibration of the distinction between smooth and striated space, it exemplifies the notion of an expressive ecology in four sections that perform the squaring of concepts (chlorophyll), of the unconscious (Lacan), of aesthetics (Balthus) and of media studies (the analog and digital divide).

In Islām, there are four fundamental factors of social development and change – personality, tradition, accident, and people. The Qur'an says: "Verily never will God change the condition of a people until they change it themselves [with their souls]. (Q-13:11). Therefore, the researcher's aim is assessing the integration of Islāmic values in the teaching of martial arts in the youth for them be good followers of Islām thru inculcation in their minds and their behavior the real sense of a true Muslim. Essentially, this study is descriptive, which aimed mainly to serve as an exposition on the Religion, Traditional Culture, and History of the Muslims in the Philippines and their implication relevance to martial arts. The various data collected through in-depth study, interview and observation showed that Islām prepares people to be a fruitful citizen in the society. It also aimed for the total development of man not only in the religious aspect. Thus, Martial arts play a vital role in Islām not just as a means of self-defense, but as a system of ethics. Man and fighting are by nature intimately related; in fact, history shows that they are inseparable. Locally, the Bangsamoro has a very rich historical foundation in martial arts that is directly derivable from the roots of Islāmic propagation. And as man became civilized, hand-to-hand fighting also became specialized and humanized and, gradually. Thus, the term martial art is recognized today as a specialized field of knowledge which should be inculcated together with education for the total development of the new generations leading to a society imbued with rich morality.

The Continuum

This qualitative inquiry examined eighty-one transcribed student and teacher discussions and interviews and researcher field notes to determine the type of talk that occurred as the teacher invited small groups of students to take part in dialogue prompted by literature. Four themes emerged from the data: teacher's knowledge, processing time, various forms of scaffolding, and oral rubrics. During in-depth analysis of ten selected transcripts, additional themes of the nature of critical talk emerged. First, students explored critical concepts such as recognizing a need for action, becoming aware of injustices, and challenging the status quo. Also, student talk scaled the ladder of abstraction, offering concrete examples that made their discussions more applicable to their lives, while at the same time traveling up the ladder, abstracting the is sues to begin to explore larger more systemic causes of particular injustices. Second, some students believed that they were changed by the interactions while others felt as if they had gained new understandings of particular concepts, issues, or beliefs. A continuum of the type of student talk shows how students' talk moves among social talk, fundamental text talk, socio-interpretive text talk,critical talk, and critical conversations. As students traverse along the continuum, various needs can be met. As teachers recognize where students' talk is on the continuum, they can lead students to deeper literature study discussions. In order to help students take a more critical approach when discussing texts, teachers must scaffold the talk and provide the time for students to grapple with critical concepts.

AbstractThe paper is organised around the notion of embodied technique. The recent attempts to formulate scientific methodologies for the reconstruction of medieval fighting techniques based on a study of premodern fight books raise questions about the epistemological status of these (re)constructed techniques developed by modern practitioners of Historical European Martial Arts (HEMA).Approaching the subject from a perspective of cultural history and martial arts studies, the following questions are discussed: What is technique and how is it related to practice? How is technique acquired and transmitted? How can technique be recorded? And finally, how can historical records of technique be understood, interpreted and converted into practice?Following Ben Spatz, technique is defined as the knowledge content of specific practices and the semiotic references between practice, technique, and symbols referring to embodied technique are discussed. By looking at the intersubjective communication of subjective fighting skills and relying on the work of Michael Polanyi, the possibility to record the “tacit knowing” of these skills as explicit knowledge is questioned. Given the low knowledge content of the fight books in regard to the execution of the referenced techniques, modern HEMA techniques therefore are to be addressed as purely modern constructions based on modern fighting practices instead of as reconstructions of medieval technique. The discourses in HEMA are also compared to a similar debate in musicology, where the status and the “authenticity” of attempts to recreate the sound of medieval music based on interpretations of early musical notation systems was vividly discussed until the early 2000s.Fighting techniques are furthermore addressed as elements of complex fighting systems that only exist within a given historical culture of fighting and are transformed when transferred to another societal context.

The hereby reviewed book by Jacek Łukasiewicz entitled Poeta Grochowiak has been an impressive and monumental undertaking, yet it fulfils only some of the pro­mises made by its author. According to the reviewer, the fact of its release offers grounds for a discussion of the status of theory and the validity of abandoning it in favour of a reading devoid of methodological regime which elevates the importance of pleasure. The main problem which emerges after reading Łukasiewicz’s opus magnum is the issue of selecting the recipient of the monograph (a regular person or a specialist), which in turn conditions the mode of study of the poet’s output. Łukasiewicz’s monograph amplifies the conviction that Grochowiak’s poetic works should be read using new methodologies, which could indicate the poet’s innova­tion in terms of increasing the value of objects and animals as the most important components of his universe. According to the reviewer, what requires justification the most is the need to comment on nearly all poems from the poet’s released collec­tions, which is supposed to be facilitated by the researcher’s identification of seve­ral categories around which his narration centred. The book was divided into two parts. The first part is predominantly chronological, while the second part follows a contextual organisation, which considering the book’s size causes problems in the form of repeated discussions of several poems. The reviewer noted the fact that some were subjected to careful reading several times while other, especially those not released, did not receive a sufficient amount of attention. Additionally, Łukasie­wicz did not attempt to define the gravity of the topic of the most recent world war in Grochowiak’s output or to reconstruct the poet’s polemic with Julian Przyboś during the mature stage of the former’s creative life. An in-depth analysis is also demanded for poems discussing the suffering of animals and inter-species commu­nity, which Łukasiewicz deemed noteworthy yet his comments to those do not help readers find indications of eco-critical awareness in Grochowiak’s works. The new monograph devoted to the output of the author of Kanon sheds new light on many problems and biographical contexts as the critic knew the poet, yet some issues re­quire further study. Poeta Grochowiak as the crowning of Łukasiewicz’s efforts into the study of the poet’s output is impressive, yet there is no doubt that a panoramic view does not guarantee noticing every detail, and it is in details that Grochowiak’s poetic sensitivity is lodged.
