This chapter sets the scene for Ti difé boulé. The text begins with a folkloric tone: it is nighttime after people in the village have finished work. Fireflies are flitting about. A woman called Lamèsi announces that Grinn Prominnin, who has been absent for a long time, has returned with news and ideas. This visionary calls a gathering to find out what happened to the narrator’s brothers and sisters—that is, to understand the crises that have occurred within the family over the past two hundred years and to identify “the traces they have left in our blood” (14). The narrator has learned to speak “tongues” and emerges from “the realm of the past” to tell his audience the story of Haiti’s history and what went wrong. The narrator situates the book’s focus in the revolutionary crucible of the years 1789-1820 when the ascendant indigenous elite snatched up the unprecedented successes of the self-emancipated revolutionaries and freedom fighters.

A New Species

Phymaraphiniidae Schrammen 1924 (Porifera: Astrophorina) is a family of lithistid demosponges that has received little attention in the past decades. The systematic problems within this family have not been addressed for a long time due to the absence of new records and material. The genus Exsuperantia Özdikmen 2009 was first described by Schmidt (1879) as Rimella to allocate the species Rimella clava, found in the Caribbean. In 1892, Topsent found what he thought to be the same species described by Schmidt in the Azores, and synonymized it with Racodiscula clava, as he thought this species belonged to the family Theonellidae Lendenfeld 1903. However, Rimella and Racodiscula belong to distinct families: Rimella to Phymaraphiniidae, and Racodiscula to Theonellidae. Due to the fact that the genus Rimella was already preoccupied by a gastropod, it was renamed as Exsuperantia. In result of the poor preservation of Schmidt’s material and the absence of new specimens, the attribution of Topsent’s specimens to the family level remained obscure. Here, we review the genus Exsuperantia based on the analysis of new material recently collected during various research expeditions in the northeast Atlantic Ocean. The comparison of these new specimens with Schmidt’s and Topsent’s type material, allowed us to assign Topsent’s specimens to a new species, Exsuperantia archipelagus sp. nov., and confirm its attribution to the family Phymaraphiniidae (not Theonellidae). Phylogenetic reconstructions using newly generated sequences of the cytochrome subunit (COI) marker also support the assignment of the new species to the family Phymaraphiniidae (not Theonellidae).

The article presents materials from the funds of the Biysk Local History Museum, characterizing small collections of the past decades transferred by the finders to the museum and discovered during the survey of various territories of Altai by B.H. Kadikov - a researcher, and then the director of the museum. These collections contain a small number of finds, so did not attract the attention of researchers. However, the published materials are quite revealing, have a precisely defined location of detection and allow it to be found even after a long period of time. The work describes the finds of M.D. Kopytov near the village of Vyatkino in the Ust-Pristan district of the Altai region, the sites located on the right bank of Bia in the Turochak district of the Altai Republic and at the mouth of the Chemal River in the Chemal region of the republic. The published sites are located in different regions of the Altai region in different physical and geographical conditions. This fact allows to significantly expand the possibilities of finding new archaeological objects in steppe, mountain and taiga areas. In addition, the accounting of these sites, known for a very long time, in the planned construction can facilitate the work of researchers. Keywords: Altai Mountain, archaeology, M.D. Kopytov, B.H.

<p><strong>Abstract</strong><br />Nowadays, more and more people are turning to modern and contemporary style when it comes to choosing furniture for their homes, offices, restaurants, or hotels. In the past we might tend to back the use of natural elements, and one of the many popular products are bamboo. Bamboo as one of the most important non-timber forest products and fastest-growing plants in the world. As it known that bamboo craft is a folk craft products that has been around for a long time and developed hereditary, therefore we should preserve it. At first the user<br />of bamboo furniture is from the family environment which later evolved to reach a wider market. Many craftsmen developed an appreciation of the existing ones to create a new design that is estimated to sell in the market. The hope is to make<br />our bamboo furniture craft products can compete with the products of other countries.</p><p><br /><strong>Abstrak</strong><br />Saat ini semakin banyak orang yang beralih ke gaya modern dan kontemporer dalam memilih mebel untuk rumah tinggal mereka, kantor, restoran, atau bahkan hotel. Dahulu mungkin kita cenderung untuk memilih desain dan gaya klasik, tetapi sekarang ini orang cenderung kembali mempergunakan unsur-unsur alam, dan salah satu produk alam yang banyak digemari adalah bambu. Bambu sebagai salah satu produk non-kayu yang penting serta tanaman yang pertumbuhannya paling cepat di dunia. Seperti diketahui bahwa kerajinan bambu merupakan produk kerajinan rakyat yang telah ada sejak lama dan dikembangkan secara turun temurun, maka sudah<br />selayaknya hal ini perlu dilestarikan. Pada mulanya pemakai kerajinan mebel bambu hanyalah dari lingkungan keluarga yang kemudian berkembang hingga mencapai lingkungan pasar yang lebih luas. Banyak para pengrajin mengembangkan apresiasi yang sudah ada dengan membuat desain baru yang diperkirakan akan laku di pasaran. Harapannya adalah agar produk kerajinan mebel bambu negara kita dapat bersaing dengan produk negara lainnya.<br /><br /></p>

The 1960S

AbstractHistorical research on domestic servants has a long tradition. Research, however, has become more systematic from the 1960s onwards thanks to social historians, historians focusing on the family, historical demographers and (particularly from the 1970s) women's and gender historians. For a long time, scholars assumed that domestic service (especially by live-in workers) would decline, or even disappear, because of household modernization, social progress, and development of the welfare state. The (largely unexpected) “revival” of paid domestic and care work in the past three decades has prompted sociologists and other social scientists to focus on the theme, opening new opportunities for exchange between historians and social scientists. This article provides a review of the research on these issues at a global level, though with a focus on Europe and the (former) European colonies, over the past fifty years, illustrating the different approaches and their results.

Like most human institutions—the family, the village, the city, the state, customs, laws, the nation—the developmental state was born longbefore anybody thought of naming it. There are debates about when it was born, whether all developmental states (as they are usually characterized)are properly labeled, and whether there have been developmental states overlooked literature. In this paper, it will be claimed, inter alia, that indeed there were developmental states long before economists, political scientists or historians recognized them as such, and that not all developmental states, as conventionally labeled, have been true members of the select club of developmental states.

This article presents the thoughts of Michel Foucault, a cultural historian, philosopher, and intellectual, who brilliantly analyses the historical events of the past as creative criticisms for shaping human attitudes today. Through this historical analysis, Foucault examines the ways in which subjects were formed from classical times to the present. Foucault sees how this process takes a long time, starting from the subject as formed through various discourses to the subject as forming itself. To arrive at the latter, Foucault brings his readers to the classical Greco-Roman era to see how humans live their freedom and responsibilities. He also shows them various practices of the self through meditation and inner examination, as well as the practice of telling the truth (parrhesia) to oneself and to others. All this in the era was known as ethics and also seen as a practice of freedom. For Foucault, life must always be seen as a work of art that requires the attention of the artist from time to time in order to arrive at an art level considered useful and valuable to many people. Foucault calls this an aesthetic of existence, where life is not merely seen as something given, but also that must always be fought for creatively from day to day. Life must be seen as an unstable condition in which there are always cracks, therefore it has to be fixed from time to time. This is what Foucault calls a model of human existence.

The unusual Roman sarcophagus of green volcaniclastic rock that was found in Titel, a small town in Vojvodina (SRB), and is now kept in the Muzeul National al Banatului, in Timi?oara (RO), caused considerable unease among scholars in the past as it could not be convincingly connected with any of the productions in Pannonia and Moesia Superior. Only Silvio Ferri, albeit a long time ago, correctly identified its connection with the sarcophagus production in Sirmium and with the sarcophagus of Asclepiodota in particular, made of Dardagani limestone. Sarcophagi of volcaniclastic rock have only been recorded in the region of Srem and its immediate vicinity, and were all produced in Sirmium. The material most likely arrived there from the south, quarried near the village of Rajici, ca 25 km west of Domavia, in the valley of the River Drina. The structure and decoration of the sarcophagus from Titel reveal it as essentially the type produced by the workshops at Salona using models from Prokonessos. Having said that, its decorative details reveal a more complex picture. The decoration of narrow strips of plant motifs indicates a close relationship between the sarcophagus workshops at Sirmium and the workshops active in the middle and upper valley of the River Drina with its tributaries, with the centre at Skelani (municipium Malvesiatium), which, in turn, had close ties with the Salona production. The use of the Norico-Pannonian volute of Type 6 (after Pochmarski) on the inscription panel frame of the sarcophagus from Titel shows another area of influence - the travertine sarcophagus production of Aquincum - on the appearance of the sarcophagi from Sirmium that freely use these motifs (including Type 7) to form the frames of the inscription and figural panels. Available evidence clearly shows that the sarcophagus from Titel can be attributed to the Sirmium sarcophagus production of the 3rd century, more precisely its second half.

Collection Methods

This study aims to describe the condition of women who work as pottery craftsmen. This type of research is descriptive qualitative. Data collection methods in this study are through interviews, observation, and documentation. The target of this research is women craftsmen of pottery in the village of Wanio, kec. Pancalautang Kab. Sidrap then selected 7 people who became research informants through a purposive sampling technique, with the criteria being women pottery craftsmen who are married, as pottery craftsmen and whether or not they have been working as pottery craftsmen for a long time. The results showed the profile of the life of the first pottery craftsman from the education aspect, the second the health aspect and the third the income aspect. The woman who craftsmen divides her time in carrying out the two domains at once, namely directly making pottery and there are also those who finish work at home before making pottery. The positive impact felt by women in making pottery is that it can help the family economy besides that it can increase a sense of self-esteem, life satisfaction and health is maintained. The negative impacts are lack of time with family and workload.
