Download or read book Recovering Lost Species in the Modern Age written by Dolly Jorgensen and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2019-10-29 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A groundbreaking study of how emotions motivate attempts to counter species loss. This groundbreaking book brings together environmental history and the history of emotions to examine the motivations behind species conservation actions. In Recovering Lost Species in the Modern Age, Dolly Jørgensen uses the environmental histories of reintroduction, rewilding, and resurrection to view the modern conservation paradigm of the recovery of nature as an emotionally charged practice. Jørgensen argues that the recovery of nature—identifying that something is lost and then going out to find it and bring it back—is a nostalgic practice that looks to a historical past and relies on the concept of belonging to justify future-oriented action. The recovery impulse depends on emotional responses to what is lost, particularly a longing for recovery that manifests itself in such emotions as guilt, hope, fear, and grief. Jørgensen explains why emotional frameworks matter deeply—both for how people understand nature theoretically and how they interact with it physically. The identification of what belongs (the lost nature) and our longing (the emotional attachment to it) in the present will affect how environmental restoration practices are carried out in the future. A sustainable future will depend on questioning how and why belonging and longing factor into the choices we make about what to recover.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Gods are immortal men, men are mortal gods." Hermes Trismegistus Extremely Large Telescopes in Chili, past and future trips, new lives in a far planet which has links with ancient teachings of the historical brotherhood organizations, mysterious Freemasons in Scotland, Ancient Egypt, enigmatic Cathars, Templars, Thule, the eternal battle of evil, goodness, black and white, darkness and light. Who are we? Where do we come from and where do we go? For thousands of years, mankind has sought "truth", not even knowing what "truth" is... Without knowing what you were looking for, he kept looking. Does the "truth" find the seekers, Or the seekers find as they are the "truth"? In the not too distant future, mankind discovered that cosmos has no time in fact, the matter has been redefined and it has begun to be judged. It is now possible to travel back and forth between galaxies. This discovery passes through a project called Alfa-Omega. The teams of the most talented people of the planet in their field draw the resources of esoteric teachings from the beginning and even the beginning of mankind. But in this journey, with no idea of what might be the "truth", they will lead to a future that neither we can predict nor a past they desire. As a wise man said, the truth may not be sought after, but it can only be found by those who seek it. V I T R I O L “Visita Interiora Terrae Rectificando Invenies Occultum Lapidem” “Visit the interior of the earth and rectifying you will find the hidden stone.”

Download or read book Fragmentation of the Photographic Image in the Digital Age written by Daniel Rubinstein and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-10-08 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fragmentation of the Photographic Image in the Digital Age challenges orthodoxies of photographic theory and practice. Beyond understanding the image as a static representation of reality, it shows photography as a linchpin of dynamic developments in augmented intelligence, neuroscience, critical theory, and cybernetic cultures. Through essays by leading philosophers, political theorists, software artists, media researchers, curators, and experimental programmers, photography emerges not as a mimetic or a recording device but simultaneously as a new type of critical discipline and a new art form that stands at the crossroads of visual art, contemporary philosophy, and digital technologies.

Download or read book Digital Media written by Megan Alicia Winget and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2011-11-16 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There has been an explosion in the creation and use of digital media over the past quarter century and in particular over the past decade. As the varieties of digital media multiply, scholars are beginning to examine its origins, organization, and preservation, which present new challenges compared to the organization and preservation of traditional media such as books, papers, films, photographs, music scores, and works of art. In order to examine from multiple perspectives issues related to history, preservation, and ontology of digital media, editors of this volume organized an invitation-only workshop on digital media. The participants were carefully chosen to represent a variety of backgrounds and perspectives, ranging from humanities to informationstudies to technology to history to communication theory to fine arts. The book is organized in four parts, each representing a different perspective on digital media: preservation, interaction, organization, and history. The preservation section considers the problems of archiving digital media for long-term preservation. Many digital objects are readily copied but are fragile and not designed for preservation, and this nature of digital objects provides both challenges and opportunities for adapting archival practice. The remaining sections look at the interaction between technological changes and cultural practices, the organization of digital media, and the history of digital media and how technology has changed over time. The wealth of varied perspectives collected together in this volume provides new light on the topic of digital media.

Download or read book Determined Spirits written by Christine Ferguson and published by Edinburgh University Press. This book was released on 2012-04-04 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examines the Spiritualist movement's role in disseminating eugenic and hard hereditarian thoughtStudying transatlantic spiritualist literature from the mid-19th to the early 20th century, Christine Ferguson focuses on its incorporation and dissemination of bio-determinist and eugenic thought. She asks why ideas about rational reproduction, hereditary determinism and race improvement became so important to spiritualist novelists, journalists and biographers in this period. She also examines how these concerns drove emerging Spiritualist understandings of disability, intelligence, crime, conception, the afterlife and aesthetic production. The book draws on rare material, including articles and serialized fiction from Spiritualist periodicals such as Light, The Two Worlds and The Medium and Daybreak as well as on Spiritualist healing, parentage and sex manuals.
