The common ground between the representations of the Scylding dynasty in Saxo’s Gesta Danorum and Beowulf consists of four generations and this set has already been explored in the legendary context. There is, however, a hidden intervening generation between the third and fourth generations which becomes visible when attention is paid to the succeeding reigns of Balder and Høther, taken along with the birth of Rolf Krake from father-daughter incest in Saxo which means that Rolf’s mother belongs to the generation after his father. This chapter argues that this intervening generation corresponds to that of the young gods in a proposed Indo-European theogony and is that of the death of Balder, while the fifth generation is that of the mortal avenger.

The researchers studied the interplay between architecture and fashion and highlighted the common ground between architecture and fashion design. To enhance visual communication and interest. The study consisted of four chapters, the first of which focused on its methodological framework, in which its problem was determined by the following question: And what's the relationship between them? The purpose of the study was to uncover the relationship between architecture and fashion design and their mutual influence. The second focused on the relationship between fashion design and architectural design characteristics, while the third concerned fashion designers affected by architecture in their work either. (Research procedures) The research methods adopted by the researchers included: By describing the forms of architecture and analyzing the relationship between architecture and fashion design, being a suitable methodology for studying them and completing the study, the researchers identified a set of results that were consistent with the importance, purpose and purpose of the study. 1. The characteristics of architecture and costumes, whether parallel or interrelated or based on a mutual relationship, were originally established for the comfort and beauty of man depending on the dimensions of his body. The study was then concluded with conclusions, recommendations and a list of sources‎.

Black British Literature

The third chapter brings together Caribbean-born migrant writers Claude McKay and George Lamming, and forms a bridge across the divides of period and national literature that usually assign McKay to the Harlem Renaissance and Lamming either to the category of postwar black British literature or Caribbean literature. In allowing these two writers to converge, I argue that a paranational account of modernist internationalism emerges in their mutual formal and theoretical engagement with plotlessness. A lack of a plot, understood in the polysemic terms of a planned-out heteronormative life, a collective political program, and a patch of land to call home, becomes the common ground from which McKay’s Banjo: A Story without a Plot (1929) and Lamming’s The Emigrants (1954) explore the fugitive life and fantasies of colonial black subjects within a securitized Europe. In deforming plot and finding an alternative idiom, rhythm, and structure for the mobility of stigmatized populations, McKay and Lamming’s novels anticipate contemporary theories of cosmopolitics and international law (namely, those of Etienne Balibar, Seyla Benhabib, and Nicolae Gheorghe), which have argued for the accommodation of transience within territorialized models of belonging and citizenship.

The Third World

Abstract The 21st century is a triumph for the era of globalization. An era that tries to make the world, especially the world incorporated in the third world category (developed) like Indonesia to carefully and firmly address all the effects it produces. Globalization is, in essence, a process of generating ideas, then offered to be followed by other nations that eventually arrive at a common point of agreement and serve as a common ground for nations around the world. Globalization as well as nationalism is a concept of a pluralistic. Substantively also contains a contradictory spirit. Nationalism with the spirit of exclusiveness desires loyalty to the nation and state. Nationalism, in any way, tried to convince a nation that felt the same ground, breathed the same air, and drank water from the same source, that is, Bumi Indonesia. To love the homeland that gives the source of life as a gift of Allah SWT. So that every form of natural produce should be utilized as well as possible for the common welfare as a nation. In the process, Indonesia tries to shed tribal, religious, racial and linguistic identity for a cooperation to achieve prosperity. While Islam is one of the religions that desires the unity and unity among human beings. Encourage his people to love and work for the inhabited country. Abstrak Abad 21 merupakan masa kejayaan bagi era globalisasi. Sebuah era yang mencoba  menjadikan  dunia,  khususnya  dunia  yang  tergabung  dalam  kategori dunia ketiga (berkembang) seperti Indonesia untuk secara cermat dan tegas menyikapi segala efek yang ditimbulkannya. Globalisasi pada hakikatnya adalah suatu proses dari gagasan yang dimunculkan, kemudian ditawarkan untuk diikuti oleh bangsa lain yang akhirnya sampai pada suatu titik kesepakatan bersama dan menjadi pedoman bersama bagi bangsa-bangsa di seluruh dunia. Globalisasi  sebagaimana   juga  nasionalisme adalah   sebuah   konsep berwajah majemuk. Secara substansif juga mengandung semangat yang bertolak belakang. Nasionalisme dengan semangat eksklusifisme menghendaki kesetiaan kepada bangsa dan negara. Nasionalisme, dalam rupa apapun sejatinya mencoba meyakinkan bangsa yang merasa berpijak pada bumi yang sama, menghirup udara yang sama, juga meneguk air dari sumber yang sama, yakni Bumi Indonesia. Untuk mencintai tanah airnya yang memberikan sumber kehidupan sebagai anugerah Allah SWT. Sehingga setiap wujud hasil alam harus dimanfaatkan dengan sebaik-baiknya untuk kesejahteraan bersama sebagai suatu bangsa. Dalam prosesnya, Indonesia mencoba menanggalkan identitas kesukuan, agama, ras maupun bahasa demi sebuah kerjasama mencapai kesejahteraan. Sementara  Islam  adalah  salah  satu  agama  yang  sangat  menghendaki adanya  persatuan  dan  kesatuan  antar  umat  manusia.  Menganjurkan umatnya untuk mencintai dan bekerja untuk negeri yang didiami.

Issue Content

This book gives a compositional, truth‐conditional, crosslinguistic semantics for evidentials set in a theory of the semantics for sentential mood. Central to this semantics is a proposal about a distinction between what propositional content is at‐issue, roughly primary or proffered, and what content is not‐at‐issue. Evidentials contribute not‐at‐issue content, more specifically what I will call a not‐at‐issue restriction. In addition, evidentials can affect the level of commitment a sentence makes to the main proposition, contributed by sentential mood. Building on recent work in the formal semantics of evidentials and related phenomena, the proposed semantics does not appeal to separate dimensions of illocutionary meaning. Instead, I argue that all sentences make three contributions: at‐issue content, not‐at‐issue content, and an illocutionary relation. At‐issue content is presented, made available for subsequent anaphora, but is not directly added to the common ground. Not‐at‐issue content directly updates the common ground. The illocutionary relation uses the at‐issue content to impose structure on the common ground, which, depending on the clause type (e.g., declarative, interrogative), can trigger further updates. Empirical support for this proposal comes from Cheyenne (Algonquian, primary data from the author’s fieldwork), English, and a wide variety of languages that have been discussed in the literature on evidentials.

John Macfarlane

When a group or institution issues a declarative statement, what sort of speech act is this? Is it the assertion of a single individual (perhaps the group’s spokesperson or leader) or the assertion of all or most of the group members? Or is there a sense in which the group itself asserts that p? If assertion is a speech act, then who is the actor in the case of group assertion? These are the questions this chapter aims to address. Whether groups themselves can make assertions or whether a group of individuals can jointly assert that p depends, in part, on what sort of speech act assertion is. The literature on assertion has burgeoned over the past few years, and there is a great deal of debate regarding the nature of assertion. John MacFarlane has helpfully identified four theories of assertion. Following Sandy Goldberg, we can call these the attitudinal account, the constitutive rule account, the common-ground account, and the commitment account. I shall consider what group assertion might look like under each of these accounts and doing so will help us to examine some of the accounts of group assertion (often presented as theories of group testimony) on offer. I shall argue that, of the four accounts, the commitment account can best be extended to make sense of group assertion in all its various forms.

The characters of the apical system of a series of Holectypus hemisphæricus from the same horizon at two localities in Dorsetshire are analysed and described. It is found that the average relations of the plates of the system are different at the two localities, although certain numbers of identical forms occur at both. Out of 189 specimens (from both localities), 40 show serious departures from the normal type. These abnormalities are of three classes. One, the most prevalent, consists in the presence of madreporic pores on genital 3, in addition to the normal perforation of genital 2. This is regarded as a “progressive variant” in the direction of Discoides. The second, occurring in three specimens, consists in the interpolation of a supernumerary plate within the system. It is suggested that this may be either a “regressive variant” towards Acrosalenia, or a “progressive variant” towards Nucleolites (as illustrated by N.orlicularis). In neither case would this variation coincide with actual phyletic sequence, so that it is styled “parallel variation”. The third type of variant, seen in one specimen only, combines both the first and second types, and in addition shows an absence of genital 5 and a corresponding increase in the size of the posterior oculars, which meet round the back of the system. The variation in this specimen is interpreted as being “progressive” towards Discoides, “parallel progressive” or “regressive” towards Nucleolites or Acrosalenia respectively, and “progressive” towards Conulus. There are indications of a different series of variants in the Holectypus depressus from the Cornbrash. The high percentage of variation in the composition of the apical system of Holectypus is regarded as an indication of the evolutional activity of the genus, and of its near approximation in time and phylogeny to the common origin of many of the groups of Irregular Echinoids.

AbstractThis article investigates some of the institutional and poetic practices around the idea of Hindustani in the period 1900–47. It charts the establishment of the Hindustani Academy in 1927 and explores some of its publishing activities as it attempted to make a positive institutional intervention in the Hindi–Urdu debate and cultural field more broadly. It then considers some aspects of poetic production in literary journals, including those associated with the Academy. Ultimately, it is an attempt to explore the grey areas that existed between Hindi/Hindu and Urdu/Muslim in the pre-Independence decades, and to make the case for studying the literature of both traditions simultaneously, along with emphasizing that attempts at compromise—including the perennially contested term ‘Hindustani’ itself—must be taken on their own terms.
