One of the central topics in Tomasello's The Cultural Origins of Human Cognition is language -- how it evolved, how it develops ontogenetically, and how it enhances our cognitive abilities. But Tomasello discusses language at a fairly high level (e.g., syntax, semantics, and pragmatics). For spoken language to have evolved (biologically or culturally), several changes in the morphology of our vocal tracts had to take place. In addition, speech must be designed to take advantage of certain properties of our auditory systems, some of which may have evolved since the evolutionary lines of humans and other primates diverged. So, in order to really understand the language faculty, and how it evolved, you have to understand speech production and speech perception. With that in mind, here are two good papers on the internet.
The first is a book chapter titled "What Are the Uniquely Human Components of the Language Faculty?" by Marc Hauser and Tecumseh Fitch. Yes, that Hauser and Fitch. But this chapter isn't about the recursion hypothesis. It's a nice historical review of the speech production and perception literature. Unfortunately, since it's a book chapter, the scanned version doesn't include the references, but if they cite something that you think you'd like to read, and you can't find the full reference, let me know, and I will find it for you.
The second source, which is cited by Hauser and Fitch, is a Behavioral and Brain Sciences paper by Peter MacNeilage titled "The Frame/Content Theory of Evolution of Speech Production." It's mostly about speech production, as the title suggests, and contains a lot of great info on the physical aspects of speech, along with a theory about how these and neural organization influenced the evolution of language.

The End - Visions of Apocalypse, I penned a little time-travel short with a Twilight Zone ending. It was called Greener Grass. It didn't "quite" fit the theme of the anthology, although it did plant the seeds for my novel Hollow World. So, I needed a new short story for N.E. White's project.
It was summer, and I had just learned of Ray Bradbury's death. My wife and I were taking a bike ride down to Washington DC, and for part of it, we would be passing through Alexandria Virginia. Thinking about Fahrenheit 451, my favorite work of Ray's, got me thinking about book burning. It was impossible to ignore the irony of being in a city named after the most famed library burning in history. Hence, the idea of the story for N.E.'s anthology came to mind.
Recently, some groups on goodreads chose to read Fahrenheit 451, and I offered them my little short story for free. Then, I made it available to those in "The Dark Room" (a private/secret) goodreads group. Then I figured, why not keep going...and so now I'm making it available through this blog. Just click on the cover or this link. I'll send you a copy in whatever format you wish. I hope you enjoy it.


My mentor memoirs
Updated: Jul 30, 2022
I remember the charming memoirs written by James Herriot about his life as a country vet in Yorkshire (have I got that right?). All Creatures Great and Small is perhaps the most well known, but I devoured the entire series back in the day. However, it was Frank McCourt's memoir Angela Ashes that brought memoir writing to a new level: confessional, honest, brutal at times, but ultimately redemptive. Memoir must traverse the tightrope between brag sheet and sob story in order for readers to be able to relate on a visceral level. We don't just want to read a report. We want to be swept up in story. Readers are not so interested in your successes as in how you got there and how bloomin' difficult it was!
Drinking, A love Story, by Caroline Knapp, is a good memoir to read for story structure as is Wild, by Cheryl Strayed. I haven't read Maid, by Stephanie Land, but it's at the top of my reading list. For over a year, I have been engrossed in writing my own memoir which has the down side of not affording me a lot of time to read. Regardless, when I want to be immersed in beautiful prose about setting and 'place,' I dip into Seven Storey Mountain by Thomas Merton. It's always a good idea to have one's funny bone tickled by a memoir like The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian by Sherman Alexie. In the land of memoirs there is something for everyone. It's learning about our common struggles as human beings and universal values of love, forgiveness, and transcendance that makes memoirs such satisfying reads.

I'm delighted to announce the publication of One Level at a Time: Transitioning to Organic Vegetable Production. Published by Canadian Organic Growers (COG), this practical handbook shows conventional farmers (as well as not-quite-organic growers) how to make a comprehensive transition to organic management.
It is based on interviews across Canada with farmers who have undergone transition, and is rooted in extensive research on agronomic techniques, weed management, pest and disease management, soil-building practices, nutrient management, marketing practices, business operations, certification pathways, and more.
Although it is based on the Canadian experience, it is useful for growers in the United States, Australia, the European Union, and beyond. The specific Canadian content is extracted from the text and placed in shaded text boxes, for easy use and comprehension.
The book is useful not only for farmers but also for CEOs, change-makers, policymakers, and global leaders interested in how transformative change occurs. The book includes useful information about how (agricultural) companies overcome knowledge deficits, fears, concerns, lack of capacity, and lack of markets to undertake positive triple bottom-line transformation that benefits society, ecosystems, and financial sustainability.
Oxford University Press's description of Sustainability: A History
"The sustainability movement didn't emerge as a distinct social, environmental, or economic ideal until as recently as the 1980s, but today its presence is felt in nearly every area of our lives.
In this lively and accessible book, Jeremy L. Caradonna approaches sustainability from a historical perspective, revealing the conditions that made possible the movement as it exists today. Sustainability has taken shape in recent decades, fueled by a growing awareness about climate change, peak oil, and the limits to economic growth. Yet Caradonna argues that very few people today have a clear understanding of the movement's historical underpinnings, or even a solid grasp on what exactly Sustainability: A Short History offers a very thorough definition of sustainability, in addition to an overview of its many applications in the 21st century--from permaculture to renewable energy to the local food movement.
But crucially, Caradonna also places these developments within a historical lineage. Covering the period from the 1660s to the present day (and even the future), with particular attention placed on developments within Europe and North America, Caradonna considers the origins of sustainability across many fields. He discusses sustainable yield forestry and changing attitudes toward economics in the late 17th and 18th century; the Industrial Revolution and early critics of modernity; the birth of ecological economics and the environmental movement in the 1960s and '70s; the UN conferences of the 1980s and '90s that gave shape to sustainability and sustainable development; and the emergence of a concrete movement in the last decades of the 20th century."
"The Routledge Handbook of the History of Sustainability is a far-reaching survey of the deep and contemporary history of sustainability. This innovative resource will help to define the history of sustainability as an identifiable field. It provides a unique resource for advanced undergraduates, graduate students, and scholars, and delivers essential context for understanding the current state and future path of the sustainability movement."
I edited this book and wrote some of the chapters in it. There's phenomenal contributions from some of the world's leading scholars on sustainability. Buy it here.
It's also available through Amazon and other outlets.

Forced and Slave Labor in Nazi-Dominated Europe
...Forced and Slave Labor Across Europe, began with Andrej Angrick’s (institution, place) discussion of the use of SS-assigned slave labor in the construction of DG-IV, a main transit road built by the Germans and essential to their assault on Stalingrad and the Caucasus. Sarah Farmer of the University of California–Irvine then addressed the use of foreign labor (“Groupements de Travailleurs Etrangers”) in Vichy France. Finally, Rolf Keller of the Niedersächische Landeszentrale für Politische Bildung examined the contradictory “racism-versus-pragmatism” policy applied to Soviet prisoners of war used as forced and slave laborers in Germany in 1941/42.

Eventually a homeschool mom finds just the right book to light the reading fire. Boys are a little more of a challenge for me because, well, I'm not a boy. They love the books I read to them, no matter what. But finding just the thing for them to delve into solo, that's a little different.
Dan has been particularly challenging. He didn't read very well at all until he was 11 - just this past fall. It does make one worry, but there are studies, "nothing to worry about," yadda, yadda. But I KNOW if he were in *real school* there would have been tests and special ed and probably Ritalin recommendations. It's hard not to compare and just trust the process. At home, one must just breathe deeply, pray and meet the child/student's needs. In October, Dan turned 11 and he was still picking through the sounds of decoding. Dave was nine and half when he hit fluency, so I wasn't overly worried about Dan until he turned 11. Dominic, well, we aren't exactly sure how long he, at 7, has been able to read, but we think he started decoding at three, so he's a pretty good reader thanks only to his own initiative and the *magic* click that just seems to happen for natural readers.
So there we were.
Then one November day, Dan could read a sentence without sounding everything out. Then a paragraph in a chicken catalog - not exactly standard primer material. Then, suddenly, he could read - he knew he could do it, and he, along with Dad and I, breathed a sigh of relief.
But we were still looking for the Book. You know the one from your childhood that made you realize that There's A Whole Big World to Explore Page By Beautiful Page.
For me it was:
The book I remember as being the first book I read to myself and LOVED. It led to so many more : The Betsy-Tacy (Betsy-Tacy Books) , which I loved beyond reason until I discover the March sisters and the Five Little Peppers and the list goes on and on. (I was told that I own more books than a small elementary school library...so you get the idea)
I need my kids to read and to love to read. It's part of why I homeschool - there isn't enough time in the day for good and beautiful stories and books if one is in school all day learning "twaddle."
But back to Dan, and those who know him might, say, well, duh.
His book is:
Well, of course, duh. But one cannot fall in love with this book if one is struggling to decode. This week, the child struggles no longer, he is no longer an emergent reader. He reads. He swallowed this one whole, devouring it in 3 days. All 372 pages of the unabridged (we scorn those 'round these parts) version that I bought on a whim in Hannibal, MO. Now, Nin is required to overnight the rest of the series that is at home to us. Happily, though, Dan has his very own copy of Farmer Boy to cherish and reread.
This afternoon, I believe he will start on either Freckles by Gene Stratton Porter or Laddie: A True Blue Story same author.
I call him Freckles on this blog because he loves that book and has been trying to read it ever since...he has followed along with the Librivox recording for years. But, now, now, it's different, he can savor every word in print.
He's read four books since last weekend - three of the Magic Tree House Series by Mary Pope Osborne and Farmer Boy. Pretty impressive for my boy who could barely read 5 months ago. Congratulations, Daniel!
(in the first picture, Freckles and Padrecito, are exploring a pilot house at the Corps of Engineer Lock and Dam in Utica, IL. Following pictures, Dan caught in the act of reading in a tree)
"THEN Jesus was led by the spirit into the desert, to be tempted by the devil. And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, afterwards he was hungry. And the tempter coming said to him: If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread. Who answered and said: It is written, Not in bread alone doth man live, but in every word that proceedeth from the mouth of God." Matthew 4:1-4
Welcome! The most important bread is the Bread of Life. I am Catholic and do my best to know, understand and live what that means that I might "know Him, love Him and serve Him." My husband, Bud, and I have been married for 24 years and we have seven children. Because of his job, we travel the country in an RV with five of them, learning as we go.


“My grandmother was born in a hungry 1933. And hunger remained the main theme of her memories…”- columnist CABAR.asia Ak-Maral Azimova tells the story of the women of her family, who created and create their picture of being, organically fitting into it the religion and conscious attitude to their personality.
“Once, a whole flock of sparrows flew into the shed with a hole in the roof where straw was kept. My brother and I were 8-9 years old during these war years. Small, infinitely hungry, we closed the hole, caught the unfortunate birds, plucked and roasted a whole cooking pot. It seemed that we have not eaten anything tastier in our life,” my grandmother once shared.
She was let to go to school only after fulfilling a number of requirements. “Sweep, clean and making bread. If you do everything – you can go, maybe you will become a mullah”- she was told. In galoshes, worn on barefoot everyone walked for a long time. They were cold. Starved. But studied, studied and studied. And then they worked, worked and worked…
My grandmother retired 10 years later then she was supposed to. And only then there was time not only for work. In her declining years, she began to notice that “something has changed around.”
Read also: “On the waves of spiritual memory.” Part 1
Women, who were the same age as my grandmothers not only, began to dress differently, speak differently, and behave differently. Those who were well known also changed. The majority in their past were far from piety, but they did hajj and turned into saints in their own eyes.
All this greatly annoyed her, but nevertheless Namaz entered the life of my grandmother. She did not change her way of life – she dressed, brushed her hair as before, complying with her age and with her predilections for fashionable and comfortable clothes.
I really liked her relationship with God. It was a conscious attitude towards her personality. From the point of view of religious studies, she created her own picture of being. She had her own opinion on everything and could make decisions on her own.
After the untimely death of her son, my uncle, my grandmother installed a small vertical stele on the grave. It has an image of her son in a medical robe, in a cap and with a phonendoscope around his neck – this is how the people he helped remember him.
After some time, the imam of the local mosque came to her personally, and began to accuse her of it, threatening to remove the stele. An elderly woman defended her right to dispose of the grave of her own child and preserve the memory of him for others. Moreover, she did it without selecting expressions – the imam barely took off his legs. Stele remained, one of a kind, surrounded by clay, nameless hills, marked with colored, broken drinking bowls and teapots.

Hurst is one of the two main characters in ‘The Plains of Kallanash’. At the time the story opens, he is thirty six years old.
Like Mia, Hurst’s father was lead husband at a Karning. When Hurst was born, his father Tanist was already on the fourth line, despite being only twenty five. His mother was the fourth wife, and she and Hurst’s father became a settled couple the moment she joined the marriage. Hurst was their first child. The family moved steadily from Karning to Karning, and by the time Hurst was eleven, had reached the border, the eighth line on the western side. Hurst’s mother died when he was twelve, and Hurst grew closer to his father as a result.
When Hurst was eight, a serious illness swept through several of the western Karnings. Adults were unaffected, and younger children emerged unscathed, but it was most serious for the children of around Hurst’s age. Two of his sisters died, and he and several other siblings were left with deformed limbs as a result. Hurst was determined not to let it prevent him becoming a Skirmisher, and he worked relentlessly to overcome his deficiencies.
When he went to the Ring at age ten to be educated by the scholars and Slaves, he focused obsessively on anything relevant to skirmishing skills, and drifted inattentively through the other lessons. By the time he was fifteen, he had won all the junior tournaments, and had no trouble meeting the requirements to become a Higher (part of the ruling elite).
He went back to his father’s border Karning, and set up his own Hundred (a group of Skirmishers), fighting the barbarians alongside his father and uncles. He spent some time with an uncle at a different Karning, and later a couple of years with an older brother, but he always came back to his father.
Hurst could have joined the marriage of two older brothers when he was fifteen, but his father thought he was capable of being lead husband and advised him to wait. When he was nineteen, his father put his name forward to the Voices for marriage, along with a cousin (not Jonnor). Two sisters were suggested for them, and the fathers all agreed, but when the women saw Hurst’s unprepossessing face and his limp, they backed out. A couple of other proposals fell through at an earlier stage. Another opportunity to join some older brothers was also turned down. Hurst wanted to lead his own marriage.
When he was twenty six, his father put him forward again, this time with his cousin Jonnor, to marry sisters Tella and Mia. Hurst was set to be paired with twenty three year old Tella, while eighteen year old Jonnor would be paired with fifteen year old Mia. The month of discovery went well, but when the three fathers arrived to finalise arrangements, things began to fall apart.
Jonnor had a younger brother who would qualify as a Higher that winter. Jonnor’s father devised a plan to wait a year, and then marry Jonnor and his brother to Tella and Mia. The other two fathers were opposed to the idea, but Tanist came up with a way out: let Jonnor be lead husband instead, but keep Mia downstairs for a few years rather than pair her with the much older Hurst. Tanist felt that Jonnor was malleable enough to allow Hurst to lead the skirmishes, and it would give the marriage time to settle and find its own arrangement. Hurst accepted it, realising that this was his only realistic option.
And so they married, but somehow the marriage never quite settled, and Tella’s death ten years later knocked it off its axis and set in train a disastrous sequence of events.


Determining whether a pointer field is pointing at anything¶
Determine whether a pointer field is pointing to anything
Returns TRUE if the specified pointer field is null, i.e. does not point to another object, otherwise FALSE.
A pointer field is a temporary field declared with the !temp declaration and assigned the special type p. It points to the null object until assigned an object identifier. It then points to this object, and may be used as if it were the object pointed to.
The isnull() function makes it possible to distinguish between the pointer itself being null and the object being pointed to having a null value.

Walkinstown Library Performance by Scoil Úna Naofa Orchestra
It was a ‘Haunted House’ at Walkinstown Library on 10th May 2017 as the orchestra played pieces like ‘Paradise Island’, ‘Bohemian Stomp’ and ‘There’s a Ghost in the Living Room’. Orchestra members not only played but also sang telling the story of this spooky visit.
The orchestra really played to their best under the direction of Nicole Hudson.
Well done to all orchestra members for making this a special day at the library for so many.
As the library became an area of creativity rather than ‘silence please’ the orchestra entertained many supporters and surprised visitors to the library. Dr Joanna Crooks spoke about the exciting new government initiative recognising the importance of arts in the community and music in schools, ‘Creative Ireland’ (click for more on this important project)

Mary Shelley, an all-rounder, who’s a novelist, travel writer, dramatist, author, essayist, and daughter to a feminist and philosopher Mary Wollstonecraft, wrote an amazing piece of a gothic themed literature named “Frankenstein”, the first science fiction novel. Frankenstein is one of the best-presented works on gothic and horror story plots which provides a well-elaborated linkage between society odds and evens. The novel contains a number of framing devices, stories surrounded by other stories in an exotic manner. Shelley wrote this novel in the early eighteenth century when the revolution was in full swing, things were changing and advancement was at the peak. Hence, being a woman, it was quite difficult for Mary Shelley to dominate in the society against the odds. Moreover, she explains her journey and experiences using rhetorical devices that can make ease for readers to grasp the central idea of the text.
“Frankenstein is a feminist critique of science”, this can’t be ideally said to be true but critically Frankenstein shows a relationship between feminine roles and scientific developments. There are no majority female characters in this novel thus, it can’t be said that Frankenstein was a feminist vision of text. But on the other hand, there are a number of events that took place in the body of the novel that points out the feminist perspective of the author. Mary Shelley became the first woman of the nineteenth century, who stepped forward and wrote something using the symbolic tool. She used the character of Frankenstein to portray the conditions of those women who were obliged to play roles in opposition to the culture and demonstrated societal problems using her words.
Mary Shelley constructs a relationship between science and literature using the base ground of metaphors, images, thoughts, and much more to elaborate the essence of women and destruction in society using neo-classicism. She uses the ancient principles and classical style of literature to establish her point in front of the audience. She emphasizes on emotions and imaginations to define several implications created by the revolution that time; for this, she uses metaphors that were sexist and against male dominance. Frankenstein pursuits modern science along with gender politics where she discusses aggressive and dominant male legacy. Furthermore, the author of her novel created a male monster to display the satanic sight of the male dominants and violence in the society that attacks the female sex in all spheres of life.
Moreover, when science is brought up in a relationship with fiction and society, evolution is the process which creates a diverse concept of production reproduction, human behavior, and organisms. Mary Shelley in her novel confirms the most known theory of evolution proposed by Charles Darwin.
The theory elaborates the formation of a living organism in this world. Living things are created by the natural combination of genetic and inherited orders, disorders, and hormones. Mary Shelley uses the base of Darwin theory in order to present her views on the origin of species and to replace God with science. The author presents a conflict between types of science. She divides science into two major categories and termed them as “Bad Science” and “Good Science”. She highlights several implications that are being caused for women especially with the development mode of science. Similarly, a conflict between love and revenge is also visible in this text, when the monster wants love and needs to be accepted by the society but instead, is rejected and declined by the people which leads to the creation of a feeling of revenge and hatred in the monster’s objective against the human life and this gives acceleration to the destruction. If a comparison is carried out, the monster is the women who fights against societal problems and norms to enhance her own image in the humanitarian society but instead is tied up with a number of constraints. Frankenstein’s approach in this novel is described as an attempt made by strong women to gain power and destroy the civilization. This develops a causation relationship between love and revenge.
Hence, Mary Shelley’s scientific ideology is carried out to dominate female in the environment, during revolution necessarily. She wants the society to understand her experience as a woman and to appreciate her value (specifically the gender) on the front.

Lake of the Ozarks Water Safety Council hosts book reading of The Amazing Adventures of Boat Girl, emphasizing water safety for kids
A few years ago I published a children’s boating book called The Amazing Adventures of Boat Girl (often referred to as simply “Boat Girl”). Boat Girl is a story based on my two daughters who were both “born & raised on the water”. They both quickly developed a love of boating and, most importantly, a respect for safety on the water. They have each become self-proclaimed “boat girls” in their own ways.
Two years ago I had the pleasure of being interviewed about Boat Girl by Bob May with Bob’s No Wake Zone, a radio show devoted to boating based in Lake of the Ozarks, MO. The radio interview was a great way for me to highlight the story behind my book – detailing how my two daughters inspired me to write Boat Girl and what the book was all about.
Recently Bob’s friends at Lake of the Ozark Water Safety Council held a book reading at their local library in Camdenton, MO and Bob was kind enough to record the book reading for a segment on his radio show. Trish Creach, co-chair of the council and director of the Camdenton Area Chamber of Commerce, joined Lake of The Ozarks Boating Safety Council Deb Stoner for the reading.
It was great to hear the kids responding to the book and talking about how they too have been on a boat. We also got some great photos showing the kids and Lil Laker – a toy tugboat the Water Safety Council uses to help teach kids about water safety.
Boat Girl Book Reading Video
With a few photos from the event, combined with some images directly from the book and Bob’s audio, I was able put together this video recap of the book reading:

Give ’Round the Clock
Fairfax Library Foundation has created the “Give ’Round the Clock” campaign for United Way’s “Do More 24” day of giving. The campaign will take place on June 6, 2013, and will go from midnight to midnight to encourage ’round the clock giving. Our goal is to raise $1,200 in twenty-four hours to provide additional funding for the Foundation’s initiatives, such as Early Literacy Outreach, funding additional eBooks for the library’s collection, and programming events for the Summer Reading Program. To be part of the Foundation’s “Give ’Round the Clock” campaign, visit United Way’s “Do More 24” website. United Way will feature Fairfax Library Foundation as one of their “Do More 24” participants and—if we meet our goals and United Way deems our campaign worthy —United Way may provide us with additional “award” funds.
We have created the “Give ’Round the Clock” campaign, in which we plan to engage donors digitally and challenge them to help us meet our fundraising goals. Our plan is to enlist 24 donors to each sponsor an hour of the day on June 6th, from midnight to midnight, to help us take advantage of all 24 hours of our campaign. Each hour has a fundraising goal, and our “hourly sponsors” will match what has been raised in the hour they are sponsoring up to that hourly goal.
Please keep an eye out for more information on our June 6th “Giving ‘Round the Clock” Event. If you would like to become an “hourly sponsor,” please email.
As the library braces for more proposed budget cuts, the Foundation turns to the business community asking for them to invest in the library through the Library Foundation. Read more about why an investment in the library is a good business investment.
Keep an eye out for our Corporate Appeal, and consider giving what you can. We ask for your generosity so the Foundation can continue to maintain a strong foundation for library programs and services.
Last year the Library Jubilee! raised over $130,000 to benefit under-funded library programs such as Ready to Read, Changing Lives Through Literature, Summer Reading Program, Foundation scholarships, eBooks and more. One hundred percent of the proceeds will benefit all those live, work, or study in Fairfax County or the City of Fairfax.

Dr. Marsha Hewitt
Dr. Marsha Aileen Hewitt is a full professor in the Department for the Study of Religion at the University of Toronto, and the Faculty of Divinity at Trinity College. She teaches undergraduate and graduate courses in psychoanalytic theory and clinical practice, psychoanalytic psychology of religion, dreams and visions, critical theory and method and theory in the study of religion. Professor Hewitt has numerous scholarly publications in the fields of psychoanalysis, critical social theory, liberation theology and feminism. Her books include From Theology to Social Theory: Juan Luis Segundo and the Theology of Liberation and Critical Theory of Religion: A Feminist Analysis. Her most recent publications include Freud on Religion (2014), “Christian Anti-Judaism and Early Object Relations Theory” (2018), “The Psychoanalytic Occult in Freud and Contemporary Theory” (2017), and “Spirits in the Mind, Gods in the Brain: Contemporary Psychologies of Religious Experience” (2016). Her latest book, published in 2020, is Legacies of the Occult: Psychoanalysis, Religion and Unconscious Communication. Her current project is “A Psychoanalytic Psychology of Religion: Possession, Trances and Transference.”
Dr. Hewitt is also a psychoanalyst in private practice, and a supervisor and Faculty member at the Toronto Institute for Contemporary Psychoanalysis.
How can the concept of ‘projective identification’ help us understand people who hold harmful prejudices, as well as our own selves?
How might engaging our ’empathic imaginations’ more often change our lives and the way we see the world?
Do you often include personal experience into your academic work? Why or why not? How might doing so change the way in which you engage with the material?
What are some ways that teachers can best show care to their students?
Reflecting on your experience of the COVID-19 pandemic, how has it been for you? What has been the hardest part? What has gotten you through it?
Think about a time when someone shared about their trauma or personal history with you. How did you respond? How can we best respond to trauma, such that we do not intensify its harm?
Hewitt, M. (2008). Attachment Theory, Religious Beliefs, and the Limits of Reason. Pastoral Psychology. 57, 65–75.
This paper argues that current social theories about religion and its role in politics and the public sphere could benefit from incorporating insights from attachment theory.
Watch this video of Dr. Hewitt’s talk at the Pacifica Graduate Institute’s 2019 Altered States Conference below:
Introducing Dr. Hewitt
Listen to Dr. Hewitt talk about her focus at the intersection of psychoanalysis and religion.
Learning How Our Worlds Are Created
Dr. Hewitt discusses the way in which our individual minds are actually social minds: the social institutions we are born into shape our attitudes and ways of thinking. She suggests looking at prejudices such as racism or
homophobia psychoanalytically, by asking what psychological work those ideologies are providing for those who hold them. Thinking about an individual’s social context, personal story, and the function of their psychology
is how Dr. Hewitt helps to engage students’ empathic imagination. Empathic imagination allows us to understand others without using pathologizing or colonialist narratives.
Engaging with Students Ethically
Dr. Hewitt talks about the tricky boundaries of including the personal in one’s academic work and in the classroom. On the one hand, engaging with scholarship through your personal experience can help you engage more deeply
with the authors, but there is also emotional risk in this. Dr. Hewitt emphasizes ‘generosity in scholarship’ – the willingness to see other points of view and be expansive in our thinking. Some might think that this is
a quality only for the humanities, whereas science is objective. But it is always we, the thinkers, who are doing the thinking.
What is Trauma?
Dr. Hewitt explains that one of the most damaging aspects of trauma can be how the people around us respond to it. She talks about trauma as ‘laying down tracks’ in the body and consciousness. Religion, in its texts and traditions,
can sometimes reinforce the harmful idea that trauma is something to be accepted. Dr. Hewitt also discusses the way in which the pandemic has traumatized us on a global scale. Now more than ever, it is important for educators
to show deep care for their students.

Spring 2018, Congratulations to Regine Criser, Asst Professor of German (Award for Excellent Teaching by Untenured Faculty) & Barbara Duncan, Adjunct Instructor of Cherokee (Award for Excellent Teaching by Part-Time Faculty)
Summer 2017, Regine Criser
has received nationwide recognition with the AATG/Goethe-Institut Certificate of Merit for outstanding achievement in furthering the teaching of German in schools of the United States.
Summer 2017, Peru, Juan Sanchez Martinez
For the past year and a half, Fredy Amílcar Roncalla (Quechua poet in NY) and Juan Sanchez Martinez (Professor of Modern Languages and Indigenous Studies at UNCA) worked on a compilation of poetry and essays based on Quechua epistemologies. Specifically, they researched about Andean understandings of time. Muyurina—a place to move, in Quechua—guided their project as a metaphor that challenges linear visualizations of time. Muyurina means to go and to return, to dance in the womb and in the ceremony, to understand where the future is going because the past is ahead of oneself. Thanks to the University Research Council Grant, on summer 2017 Professor Sanchez Martinez visited some Quechua writers and advocates from Peru such as Gloria Cáceres, Dante Gonzalez, and Hernán Hurtado Trujillo, who contributed in the compilation Muyurina y el presente profundo: poéticas andino-amazónicas. The main objectives of this book are: 1) to propose an alternative perspective on time through oral traditions and contemporary indigenous literatures; 2) to support the indigenous understanding of storytelling as a way of knowledge; 3) and to facilitate a trans-indigenous dialogue between environmental movements and indigenous writers across the Americas. This project has addressed questions such as: What is the connection between biodiversity, traditional knowledge, and native languages? What is the predominant mindset on time in the geopolitical battle for gold, oil, coal, water, medicines, and soil? How can stories and literature defend nature and become a bridge between indigenous knowledge and Western science?
Summer 2017, Spain and the Camino de Santiago
Michelle Bettencourt and Rodger Payne (Religious Studies) led a group of students on an exploration of the rich history in Madrid and Toledo before spending a week in Valladolid, studying at one of Spain’s prominent universities and living with local families. The final week was spent hiking 117 kilometers of the Camino de Santiago (The Way of Saint James), one of the most significant pilgrimages of the Christian world, which dates back to the 9th century. Along the way, they passed through remote villages and towns, visited important architectural and artistic landmarks, and met other Pilgrims from around the world before arriving at the end of the Camino, Santiago de Compostela.
Spring Break 2017 - Greta Trautmann & Maria Cebria - took a group of students to Havana, Cuba. Students were enrolled in either LA 478 (Cultivating Global Citizenship (Trautmann) or SPAN 374 (Cuba Today: Visual Arts, Literature and History (Cebria). Students met with scholars and professionals from various disciplines who engaged them with historical realities as well as with current developments in artistic movements, sustainability and cultural heritage and technology and communication. Non-academic excursions included: guided tour of La Habana Vieja (Old Havana); visits to the Cemetery of Colón; Museum of the Revolution, Contemporary Art Museum (Cuban Collection); visit to Cigar factory and Rum distillery; an overnight trip to the Terrazas biosphere and Vinales. Students also participated in a service project of El espiral community foundation, in which they assisted in re-painting an elementary school in a very modest neighborhood west of the city.
John Gant presented his investigation on Class as Seen in the "Whorehouse Gallery" of La Celestina (1499) at the 25th National Conference of Hispanic and Latino Studies in Dallas, Texas on February 16, 2017.

Oliver Gloag welcomed documentary film-maker Dominique Dubosc to show a screening of LIP, or the Taste for Collective Action (in French with English Subtitles) March 6. The historical strike by workers of the clock-making factory of LIP (1973-74), because of the importance of the questions it raised, the way it was organized inside the factory, momentum and popularity, became one of the great French social events of the second half of the twentieth century.
Regine Criser hosted the Symposium on Diversity, Decolonialization, and the German Curriculum, March 3-5. She welcomed 30 German scholars and educators from across the United States, Canada, and South Africa to participate. Their goal was to leave our campus with an action plan on how to diversify and decolonize their respective curricula and connect the German programs to larger institutional and national social justice discourses.
It is our great honor to share with you that our dear Juan Sánchez has received the National Prize for Literature in Colombia for his book of poems titled Altamar:
On October 13th, 2016, at the National University Theater Camilo Torres in Medellín (Colombia), the 34th National Prize for Literature was given this year to Juan Guillermo Sánchez Martínez, who participated with his book of poetry Altamar (High sea). As Luz Helena Cordero Villamizar, Horacio Benavides and Gustavo Adolfo Garcés explain in the judges’ concept, Altamar was chosen among 80 books because of "the rhythm of the poems, the confluence of voices from various indigenous American languages, and the poetic voice in-between roots and rootlessness ... ". In the following months the book will be released by the Universidad de Antioquia Publisher.
At the International Conference Comunication, Identity and Interculturality hosted by CIESPAL (https://www.unca.edu/sanchez-national-literature-prize), Juan G. Sánchez Martínez accepted a new position as President of SOLEI, The Latin American Society of Intercultural Studies. He will be leading the organization of the 2018 Conference in Colombia.

Elena Adell and Greta Trautmann, along with colleague Steve Elliott-Gower from Georgia College and State University are building a Faculty Development Initiative in Havana, Cuba for December 2015 (CoPlacCuba 2015:Cuba in a Global Context). Twenty faculty members from fifteen different COPLAC institutions will join these three for six days in Havana this December. Faculty represent disciplines from the natural sciences, social sciences and humanities, and will listen to Cuban scholars and experts give talks on topics ranging from natural resource management and ecotourism, to economic realities and changes on the island, to the role and the presence of civil (non-government) agencies in Cuba. Academic presentations will be complemented with excursions in the city, as well as one to Terrazas, a sustainable community and natural biosphere near Havana.

In recognition of the central role occupied by public libraries in the social and intellectual life of Iowa communities, the Carver Trust offers directed support for the establishment, expansion and enhancement of community-based library facilities and services. Grants of up to $80,000 are generally awarded for construction, renovation and/or furnishings and equipment needs, including technology-based initiatives that link libraries across multiple sites. Projects emphasizing library patronage among youth are especially encouraged.
Since 1991, the Trust has awarded over 350 grants, totaling over $12 million, to public libraries throughout the state of Iowa.
The Trust does not provide grants specifically targeted to making libraries handicapped accessible, although the Board certainly recognizes that need. In addition, while we understand that combining library services may be beneficial to a community, as a matter of policy, the Trust does not provide funding for joint school/community library projects or facilities.
In general, 20% of total need, up to a maximum of $80,000, is used as a funding guideline for all public libraries representing state codes A through I. However, each project is evaluated on its own merits, recognizing that, in some cases, such guidelines may not be appropriate. Further, once a facility has successfully secured a grant award from the Carver Trust, no additional applications for funding will be considered for a period of at least five years.
- General guidelines, outlined in the Application Process section of this site, must be followed in the preparation of all proposals.
- Requests may be made for general capital needs such as building or renovation projects; equipment needs associated with the installation of new circulation systems and improvements to the technological infrastructure of the new facility; resource-sharing structures involving multiple sites and other related needs.
- A minimum of 50% of the total project cost must be secured or pledged before application can be made to the Trust.
- Local investment and volunteer involvement are major factors in project evaluation.
- Current and projected usage patterns should be addressed in all funding requests, as well as the various forms of educational programming offered at the site.
- Future funding for library activities beyond the timeframe of the proposed grant period should be addressed.
- Public library measures of quality and performance, as endorsed by the State Library of Iowa, will be considered in areas of staff certification, long-range planning and a community-wide study.
Consideration of Requests for Funding
The Carver Trust reviews all proposals on a case-by-case basis. Each proposal is evaluated on its own merits, with the understanding that resources and circumstances vary from one community to another. Current funding of library projects is routinely reviewed in light of other grant requests, the availability of funds and the expressed interests of the Board of Trustees, which makes all final funding decisions. Should questions arise prior to the submission of a formal proposal, applicants are encouraged to contact Trust staff.
