El objetivo es analizar los modelos didácticos para la identificación de la competencia investigativa en el perfil del docente universitario. Se utilizó un enfoque cuantitativo, diseño no experimental con alcance transversal y descriptivo. La población estuvo conformada por 60 docentes de la carrera de administración de empresas, turno noche, en siete diferentes áreas de conocimiento (inglés, metodología de investigación, administración, contabilidad, matemática y lógica, economía y marketing y comercio) de una universidad pública del Paraguay en 2013. El muestreo fue la probabilística estratificada, 16 docentes fueron encuestados mediante un cuestionario semi-estructurado en 16 preguntas (abiertas y cerradas). Los resultados más relevantes fueron: 80% de los docentes utilizan de forma permanente la conceptualización como proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje, 73,4% aplican trabajos prácticos de forma frecuente con sus estudiantes, el gran problema que en ocasiones encuentran en los estudiantes es el desinterés 64% y 50% de los docentes no poseen producciones académicas ni científicas. Se concluye que los docentes universitarios siguen implementando los modelos didácticos de la corriente tradicionalista, donde el desarrollado del pensamiento crítico reflexivo no está evidenciado en el docente del siglo XXI, conduciendo de este modo a la no utilización del método científico para el logro de las competencias investigativas.

The development of cesium selective adsorbent is urgent subject for the decontamination of intermediate and high level water from nuclear facilities especially in nuclear accidents. For the selective adsorption and stable immobilization of radioactive cesium, K-Ni- hexacyanoferrate (II) loaded zeolite (FCzeolite) (synthesized zeolite of Hanoi University of Science and Technology) were prepared by impregnation/precipitation method. The ion exchange equilibrium of Cs+ for composites FC-zeolite was attained within 5 h and estimated to be above 97% in Cs+ 100mg/l solution at pH: 4-10. Ion exchange capacity of Cs+ ions (Qmax) for FC-zeoliteX was reached 158.7 and 98.0 mg/g in pure water and sea water respectively. Those values for FC-zeolite A was 103.1 and 63.7 mg/g. Decontamination factor (DF) of FC-zeolite X for 134Cs was 149.7 và 107.5 in pure water and sea water respectively. Initial radioactivity of 134Cs ion solution infect to decontamination factor. KNiFC-zeolite X after uptaked Cs (CsFC- zeolite X) was solidificated in optimal experimental conditions: Mixing CsFC-zeolite X with additive of Na2B4O7 (5%), temperature calcined 900oC for 2h in air. Solid forms was determined some of parameters: Cs immobilization, mechanical stability, volume reduction after calcination (%) and leaching rate of Cs+ ions in solution.
Neurological Deterioration Following Bilateral Burr-Hole Drainage for Chronic Subdural Hematoma: A Case Report
Authors: Y Tomita
Published: September 2021

Background: Spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) is a relatively rare but known pathology that results in brain herniation or sagging due to CSF hypovolemia. SIH can commonly be misdiagnosed when occurring with other pathologies including chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH). Neurological decline caused by SIH is rare, but is often rapid and much more severe. Case description: A 69-year-old man was delivered to the emergency department for loss of consciousness and mild left hemiparesis. Brain computed tomography (CT) revealed increased density over basal cisterns suggestive of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), and CSDH. Cerebral angiography showed dural arteriovenous fistula, but there was no apparent cerebral aneurysm. We first performed trans-arterial embolization using n-butyl cyanoacrylate, followed by bilateral hematoma evacuation. A postoperative CT showed that CSDH was evacuated, but the subdural space was filled with free air. A subsequent CT examination revealed mild re-accumulation of CSDH without significant brain compression. On postoperative day 14 the patient became progressively lethargic, for which he was transferred to the intensive care unit. As gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging and radionuclide cisternography suggested the leakage of cerebrospinal fluid, an epidural catheter was inserted in the head- down positioned patient and an epidural infusion of saline was given for 3 days. The patient stabilized and regained consciousness over 2 weeks. The patient became neurologically intact with imaging showing almost complete parenchymal expansion and resolution of subdural fluid collection. Conclusion: This is an instructive case because the patient deteriorated after the surgery for CSDH, but it is also a unique case because the deterioration occurred over 14 days. This report emphasizes the possibility that SIH should be taken into consideration when there is an unknown reason for early CSDH recurrence and neurological deterioration.
Designing and detailing transverse reinforcement to control bar buckling in rectangular RC walls
Authors: Tripathi Mayank , Dhakal Rajesh
Published: September 2021

Bar buckling in RC structures is a commonly-observed failure mode that adversely affects their deformation capacity. To restrict bar buckling in ductile RC walls, design codes only emphasises on restricting the spacing of transverse reinforcement and does not recognise the importance of the effective stiffness of the ties (which is a combination of the tie leg axial stiffness and spacing) to restrict bar buckling. Therefore, in this paper the design requirements for anti-buckling transverse reinforcement are summarised, and improvements to the current design methodology for anti-buckling transverse reinforcement are proposed. To ensure that the transverse reinforcement detailing in plastic hinge regions is adequate to restrict bar buckling to single tie spacing and the compressive stress deterioration in bars due to buckling is controlled, refinements to the current detailing procedures are proposed. The buckling restraining ability of transverse reinforcement depends on the axial stiffness of the tie legs, while the compressive stress reduction in reinforcing bars due to buckling depends on their unsupported length (in bare bar tests) or buckling length that can include multiple tie spacing (inside RC members). Therefore, restrictions on both the axial stiffness of the tie legs and spacing of transverse reinforcement along the longitudinal reinforcing bars are proposed. The effective axial stiffness of tie legs is controlled by ensuring that the length of the tie legs in the direction of potential buckling is well below the critical length evaluated using a mechanics-based approach. Additionally, compressive stress degradation in reinforcing bars is controlled by limiting the ratio of the transverse reinforcement spacing and the longitudinal bar diameter such that any reduction of compressive stress carried by the longitudinal bars due to buckling at the limiting curvature recommended by New Zealand Concrete Standard is within an acceptable range. Furthermore, recommendations to avoid buckling of unrestrained reinforcing bars in the boundary zone and the wall web are proposed. Using the proposed design methodology, buckling of longitudinal reinforcing bars in ductile RC walls can be delayed and the detrimental effects of buckling on the lateral response of walls can be controlled until the design drift or curvature demands are met.
The Effects of Social Achievement Goals on Social Withdrawal in Middle School Students: The Mediating Effect of Self-Efficacy
Authors: Kim Ye Rim , Park Ju Hee
Published: September 2021

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to examine the mediating effect of self-efficacy in the relationship between social achievement goals (mastery goal, performance-approach goal, and performance-avoid goal) and social withdrawal among middle school students.Methods: The participants in this study were 325 middle school students, ranging from first to third grade from seven middle schools. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Pearson’s correlation coefficients were calculated. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was also used to investigate the mediating model.Results: The results of this study were as follows. First, the level of the social mastery goal and social performance-approach goal decreased students’ social withdrawal, and the level of the social performance-avoid goal increased it. Second, the level of the social mastery goal increased self-efficacy, whereas the level of social performance-avoid goal decreased it. The level of self-efficacy had a significantly negative influence on middle school students’ social withdrawal. Further, the level of self-efficacy partially mediated the relationship between the social mastery goal and social withdrawal, and between the social performance-avoid goal and social withdrawal.Conclusion: In conclusion, the higher the level of social mastery goal, the higher the level of self-efficacy, and the lower the level of social performance-avoid goal, the higher the level of self-efficacy, and, consequently, the lower the level of social withdrawal. These outcomes suggest that it would be helpful to change the type of social achievement goals and that improving the level of self-efficacy of middle school students would contribute to reducing their social withdrawal.
Formen und Funktionen des ciceronianischen Prosarhythmus
Authors: Komenda Sven
Published: September 2021

The book deals primarily with the prose rhythm in Cicero’s orations by performing a colometric analysis and draws on prose rhythm for continuous text interpretation. The core thesis is that Latin word accent already has a constitutive function in respect to prose rhythm of classical Latin. Even in the case of Cicero, a set of five so-called “clausulas” is proven to be essentially sufficient for a rhythmic analysis (in the context of the Trias of compositio, concinnitas and numerus).

This is illustrated primarily by an interpretation of the first 300 cola of Pro Quinctio, de lege agraria (second speech) and the 14th Philippic.
Understanding Is Not Enough
Authors: Tajsin Emilia A. ,   Polish Academy of Sciences
Published: September 2021

John Locke was one of the first empiricists of the age of modernity who created a masterpiece on systematic gnoseology, and the first Enlightener whose ideas on ethics, law, and politics, preceded and made possible the 18th century and the Great French Revolution, and inspired the key wordings in the American Declaration of Independence. The slogan “Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness” influenced the course of history becoming the banner “Freedom, Equality, Fraternity” for all revolutionary movements. However, “Possessions” as part of Locke’s slogan is treated and criticized very frequently and on different grounds. The main questions are: Is reason enough for enlightening, and, could property be the fourth slogan of a social revolution? This paper is meant to be a synopsis of Locke’s main ideas, showing their utmost importance for the contemporary world, as well as examining the latest changes in the role performed by the present-day media, now acting as the new means for enlightening.
Separating Politics from Institutional Religion
Authors: Lucci Diego ,   Polish Academy of Sciences
Published: September 2021

Nowadays, more than three centuries after John Locke’s affirmation of the separation between state and church, confessional systems of government are still widespread and, even in secular liberal democracies, politics and religion often intermingle. As a result, some ecclesiastical institutions play a significant role in political affairs, while minority groups and individuals having alternative worldviews, values, and lifestyles are frequently discriminated against. Locke’s theory of religious toleration undeniably has some shortcomings, such as the exclusion of Roman Catholics and atheists from toleration and an emphasis on organized religion in A Letter Concerning Toleration (1689). However, Locke’s theory of toleration, which presents a Christian’s defense of the civil rights of those who have different religious opinions, still provides powerful arguments for the oft-neglected separation of politics from institutional religion, thereby urging us to leave theological dogmas and ecclesiastical authorities out of political life.
Mendelssohn’s Jerusalem (1783) and The Jewish Vision of Tolerance
Authors: Feiner Shmuel ,   Polish Academy of Sciences
Published: September 2021

Moses Mendelssohn (1729–1786) wrote Jerusalem with his back to the wall. His Jewish identity and liberal outlook were challenged in the public sphere of the German Enlightenment, and this was his last opportunity to write a book that would perpetuate the essence of his faith and his values as the first modern Jewish humanist. The work, which moves between apologetics for his faith and political and religious philosophy was primarily a daring essay that categorically denied the rule of religion and advocated tolerance and freedom of thought. Neither the state nor the church had the right to govern a person’s conscience; and, no less far-reaching and pioneering: these values are consistent with Judaism. In the summer of 1783, seven years after the resounding voice of protest against tyranny and in favor of liberty and equality was heard in the American Declaration of Independence, less than six years before the French Revolution, but only two years and two months before his death, the man who was called the “German Socrates,” a highly prominent figure in the Enlightenment, published one of the fundamental documents in Jewish modernity.
From Toleration to Laïcité
Authors: Stenger Gerhardt ,   Polish Academy of Sciences
Published: September 2021

This paper traces the history of the philosophical and political justification of religious tolerance from the late 17th century to modern times. In the Anglo-Saxon world, John Locke’s Letter Concerning Toleration (1689) gave birth to the doctrine of the separation of Church and State and to what is now called secularization. In France, Pierre Bayle refuted, in his Philosophical Commentary (1685), the justification of intolerance taken from Saint Augustine. Following him, Voltaire campaigned for tolerance following the Calas affair (1763), and the Declaration of the Rights of Man (1789) imposed religious freedom which, a century later, resulted in the uniquely French notion of laïcité, which denies religion any supremacy, and any right to organize life in its name. Equality before the law takes precedence over freedom: the fact of being a believer does not give rise to the right to special statutes or to exceptions to the law.
Appraisal of Steven Pinker’s Position on Enlightenment
Authors: Malhotra Ashok Kumar ,   Polish Academy of Sciences
Published: September 2021

Steven Pinker presents four ideals of Enlightenment in his popular book Enlightenment Now: The Case for Reason, Science, Humanism, and Progress. He argues his case brilliantly and convincingly through cogent arguments in a language comprehensible to the reader of the present century. Moreover, whether it is reason or science or humanism or progress, he defends his position powerfully. He justifies his views by citing 75 graphs on the upswing improvement made by humanity in terms of prosperity, longevity, education, equality of men and women, health, political freedom and medical breakthroughs. Though Pinker makes an excellent case for the positive contributions of Enlightenment; however he ignores the negative aspects that are responsible for causing a great schism between the white race and others who are black and brown. The paper highlights some of these negative comments made by such Enlightenment thinkers as Montesquieu, Voltaire, Chambers, Down and Down and others. Through their literary and scientific writings, these scholars and researchers downgraded the black and brown races, thus causing a rift that led to slavery, colonialism and apartheid. The paper reveals these negative aspects ignored by Pinker in his otherwise well-researched book on Enlightenment. Since Pinker presents a one-sided case by including only the positive contributions of Enlightenment, I recommend that he should write a sequel to his present work outlining the negative aspects responsible for numerous political, social and environmental problems facing humanity today. By using dialectical logic in place of logic of contraries, he might be able to synthesize both the positive and negative aspects of Enlightenment. He can then argue that humanity might be propelled to make progress more efficiently at a faster pace toward humanism and world peace.
O Retorno ao Mito. Nietzsche, A Música e a Tragédia
Authors: Ribeiro dos Santos Leonel ,   Philosophy Documentation Center
Published: September 2021

L'auteur essaie de montrer comment le projet nietzschéen déployé dans La naissance de la tragédie (1872) doit être compris à l'intérieur d'un mouvement spéculatif de retour au mythe, en cours dans la philosophie européenne depuis Kant. Ce mouvement se caractérise par le rôle qu'on attribue alors à l'art, comprise soit comme l'expression suprême de la subjectivité, de l'esprit (Gemüt) et de la volonté, soit comme la révélation même de l'Absolu, de l'Etre et de la Nature. Dans l'oeuvre de Nietzsche c'est la musique - l'art romantique par excellence - qui, s'instituant d'abord comme "mythe et monde de symboles", mène la raison et la philosophie à la rencontre du sens du mythe tragique ancien et, par là, aussi à la rencontre de leur lieu d'origine, à la fois historique et essentiel, dans le mythe même.
Teaching (Chinese/Non-Western) Philosophy as Philosophy
Authors: D’Ambrosio Paul J. , Amarantidou Dimitra , Connolly Tim ,   Philosophy Documentation Center
Published: September 2021

In this paper we argue that the approach for teaching non-Western, and specifically Chinese philosophy to undergraduate Western students, does not have to be significantly different than that for teaching philosophies from “Western” traditions. Four areas will be explored. Firstly, we look at debates on teaching non-Western philosophy from the perspective of themes or traditions, suggesting that, as an overarching guideline, it is mote discussion. Secondly, in terms of making generalizations, we argue that no more explanation of the “Chineseness” of Chinese philosophy be offered than the “Germanness” of German philosophy, or “Greekness” of Greek philosophy. Thirdly, that lines of philosophical coherences are not limited to regional or cultural bounds. Finally, that foreign language be used in a way that invites understanding and does not close ideas off to students. In sum, we suggest applying well proven methods of teaching “Western” philosophy to Chinese (and other “Non-Western”) philosophies. After all, value of Chinese and other “Non-Western” philosophies comes not from their being “Chinese” or “Non-Western,” but from being philosophical.

Published: September 2021

Introduction: Cleft lip palate (CLP) treatment is challenging and requires multidisciplinary treatment during patient’s whole life. Aim: To present a case report of a life-time CLP rehabilitation that anatomic features required advanced rehabilitation modalities. Design: A 9-year-old patient was diagnosed as unilateral right CLP. Agenesia and poor prognosis of lateral and central right incisor respectively added complexity to multidisciplinary treatment planning. Results: Orthodontic and surgical procedures performed during infancy and adolescence resulted on satisfactory dental alignment. Anatomical limitations required installation of a hybrid dentogingival implant-supported prosthesis at adulthood. After 3 years of follow-up, implants were osseointegrated and peri-implant tissues were stable, with favorable esthetic and functional outcomes. Conclusions: This challenging case of cleft lip palate, on which tooth with poor prognosis and agenesia were identified, required a multidisciplinary treatment during infancy and adolescence in order to provide adequate conditions for implant placement at adulthood. Implant therapy in complex cases of CLP patients requires advanced treatment modalities, that may include guided bone regeneration, periodontal reconstruction and dentogingival prosthesis.

La agravante de discriminación por razones de género fuera del ámbito de la pareja o expareja. Comentario a la Sentencia del Tribunal Supremo número 444/2020, de 14 de septiembre.
Authors: Orejón Sánchez de las Heras Néstor
Published: September 2021

La reforma del Código Penal de 2015 introdujo en el texto punitivo las razones de género como motivo de aplicación de la agravante genérica de discriminación reconocida en el art. 22.4ª. Los supuestos en los que puede concurrir como consecuencia de su relación con los tipos género específicos regulados con ocasión de la Ley Orgánica 1/2004, no son pacíficos por lo que se ha generado debate en torno a si esta circunstancia puede ser aplicable a los supuestos en los que no existe o ha existido vínculo conyugal o relación sentimental análoga a esta, presente o pasada, entre los sujetos intervinientes. Después de varias sentencias dictadas por el Tribunal Supremo, alguna de ellas confusa e incluso contradictoria en este sentido, recientemente se ha podido pronunciar expresamente mediante STS 444/2020, de 14 de septiembre, por lo que el presente estudio pretende analizar esta resolución judicial así como su encaje en la doctrina y la evolución jurisprudencial.
NOTAS SOBRE EL PENSAMIENTO PENAL Y PENITENCIARIO DE CONCEPCIÓN ARENAL
Authors: Vázquez-Portomeñe Fernando
Published: September 2021

Aunque situar a Concepción Arenal en la órbita de la llamada Escuela Correccionalista española es lugar común en la literatura penal y penitenciaria, en realidad practicó un correccionalismo muy atemperado por su creencia en el ser humano y en la necesidad de respetar su libertad, entendida como capacidad de autodeterminación racional. Sus aportaciones a la cuestión penitenciaria, ampliamente reconocidas en el extranjero, supusieron un giro radical en las políticas puestas en marcha en la España del siglo XIX. Su visión del delito como un fenómeno basado en las características individuales y diferenciadoras del delincuente permite identificarla como una de las pioneras de la sociología criminal en nuestro país.

Galskap, makt og kropp. Humor i en psykiatrisk institusjon
Authors: Braathen Espen
Published: September 2021

Humour is a complex and variable social and cultural phenomenon. This article looks at how humour is used and managed by the staff within the context of a Norwegian psychiatric institution. Theories of humour in social scientific writings, are introduced in order to situate its particular anthropological contribution. By locating humor in a psychiatric context we leam that humour is not just sheer creativity and fun, but is part of a host of social processes and cultural influences. The study’s theoretical framework views humour as a device of power, regulation and control. Foucault’s notions of power and knowledge and Gramsci’s concept of hegemony are brought to bear on the use and management of humour as part of the medico-psychiatric gaze, as well as part of hegemonic interests determined by society’s larger ideological and politico-economic structures.
Andine kropsopfattelser. Relationer mellem aymaras kropsbegreb og sundhedssystem
Authors: Hansen Mette Bech
Published: September 2021

The Aymara of Bolivia have different ways of healing their illnesses and use different sources of knowledge in the health system. According to their traditional practice they tend to start curing on a home basis using their own knowledge and experience. Otherwise they may consult the local “curanderos” who exercise different abilities. Resorting to the official medical system is rare. Apart from a specific knowledge of the effects of plants, minerals, and animal ingredients it is shown that their concept of the body influences the choice of healers and healing methods. The body concept is essentially a concept of balancing body liquids and the relation between body and nature. The latter gives evidence to talking about cultural embodiment and using the body as a metaphor of the Andean society.
Krop, sind og sjæl: erfaringer med en kropsterapi
Authors: Hildebrandt Lise
Published: September 2021

The article presents Ma-uri massage as a therapeutical practice, an institution and an experience with the body. The aim of the article is to give examples of non-dualistic experiences with the body. The main point of the article is that Ma-uri massage as a healing activity challenges the Western body/soul dualism and the related definitions of the body and perceptions of reality. The article opens with an account of context and data, followed by a brief description of the Ma-uri Institute and recruitment of potential Ma-uri masseurs. This is followed by descriptions of Ma-uri massage. Leaming techniques and therapeutical processes are presented under the subtopics “Body and Cosmos”, “Perceptions of Person”, and “The Body as a Symbol”. The article ends with proposals for future research within the area.
Kroppens komplekse videnskabelighed. Nye perspektiver på alternativ behandling
Authors: Johannesen Helle
Published: September 2021

The numerous conceptions of the body exposed in alternative therapies challenge traditional, Western, biomedically dictated conceptions of the body, disease and healing. The apparent heterogenity could lead to a discharge of alternative body concepts and related therapeutic interventions, but as a large portion of patients experience effect of a variety of alternative treatments, the need for a conceptual framework encompassing heterogenity at several logical levels emerges. For this purpose the author proposes the concept of “the complex body”, in which cultural, social, and natural features are recognized as integral aspects of the individual body, treatment, and the healing process. The body is conceptualized as a complex field of potentials, to be explicated and unfolded in interaction with specific therapeutic concepts and techniques. Underlying the obvious variety within alternative therapies, a common focus on the body as structure, disease as de-structuration, and treatment as re-structuration is revealed. Treatments are rarely aimed at destruction of disease agents or pathologies, but most often aim at a general strengthening - re-structuring - of the patient, biochemically, physiologically, mentally, culturally or socially. Examples from reflexology, biopathy and kinesiology support the validity of a concept of the complex body, which leads to a reconsideration of scientific and scholarly approaches to evaluation of effects of alternative therapies.
Om hvordan socialvidenskabelige og medicinsk videnskabelige indgangsvinkler kan forenes i en antropologisk medicinsk erkendelse
Authors: Aggernæs Bodil
Published: September 2021

1 1987 tog jeg valget og forlod antropologi til fordel for et andet fag, medicin. Jeg havde

pa det tidspunkt afsluttet 2. semester pa 2. del og var naet til et punkt, hvor antropologien

virkede handlingslammende pa mig. Jeg folte mig fastlast i betragterens rolle. Hvornar

ville jeg vide nok til at kunne forsvare at handle? Hvad var rigtigt, og hvad var forkert,

nar rammerne for ens opgave var at forsta „det anderledes" pa dets egne præmisser?

Jeg folte, at jeg efterhanden sad inde med en viden, som gav mig et utroligt ansvar.

Samtidig oplevede jeg, at faget i sig selv som et analytisk redskab gjorde det vanskeligt

for mig at tage konsekvens af min viden udover gennem en afrapportering, hvis konsekvenser jeg oplevede, men sjældent var herre over.

Sporgsmal som folgende blev for mig mere og mere presserende: Hvordan ville man

som antropolog kunne pavirke den medicinske verden uden at kunne stille en alternativ

medicinsk virkelighed i stedet? Pa hvilket grundlag kunne man som antropolog tillade

sig at stille en anden medicinsk virkelighed i stedet? Hvordan kunne man som antropolog

forma at gore sin viden meningsfuld for medicineren uden selv at vare mediciner

med deraf folgende indsigt i medicinsk begrebsverden og rationalitet?

Prinsen og det halve kongerige. En beretning fra det inkaiske landskab
Authors: Raahauge Kirsten Marie
Published: September 2021

This article is formed as a narrative interpretation of the dramatic conflict which took place between the two royal brothers Huascar and Atahuallpa, both Incas of Tawantinsuyu, ‘the unit of the four regions’, the Indian name for ‘the Inca empire’. The article is also an unfurling of a formal-structural figure in Incaic perception and categorization, namely the division into two halves, also to be found in certain terms of the guec/iua-language of the Incas. The analysis further treats the play between the two halves - when it concems towns: moieties - and the entirety, as well as the relationship between this structure and the conception of the Incaic landscape as space. The key in this interpretation is the Incaic categorization of the landscape as structured through the figure pairs of two halves which on a higher level are interconnected in an entirety. These two halves are supported by various pairs of metaphors implying either symmetry or asymmetry between the two positions. It is argued that this categorization was crucial for the structural relations that defined the positions of the brothers Huascar and Atahuallpa and eventually for the fali of Tawantinsuyu.
Slægt og rum i Inkariget. En fortolkning
Authors: Olsen Keld Anker
Published: September 2021

In the Spanish manuscripts of the 16th and 17th centuries conceming the Inca empire, accounts of a succession of Inca rulers and their descendants are often represented. Modem anthropologists have accepted the statements of the Spanish chroniclers about the existence of a dynasty in the Inca empire, as well as the individual rulers as the main characters in the history of the empire. Against this general agreement, the anthropologist Zuidema has put forward the hypothesis that descriptions and the summaries of the sources should not be understood literally. Often the Spaniards did not understand that their Indian informants sought to describe a particular spatial organization in the Inca empire by means of a temporal succession. Hence, according to Zuidema, several of the so-called rulers represented contemporary chiefs of important social groups of the empire. As a contribution to a discussion of the different ways of reading the sources, the article presents the hypothesis that the Spaniards’ Indian informants described the presence of the royal family in time and space by means of an abstract structure of five elements. It is suggested that the structure is pan-Andean and older than the Inca empire.
Sprog og rumlig orientering i livsverdenen
Authors: Wichmann Søren
Published: September 2021

The article claims that language and culture should not be studied separately. Examples from linguistic expressions of space in Danish, Hopi, Yutatec Maya, and Tlapanec are drawn upon to support this view. In Danish, different lexical items describing domestic space are introduced into discourse by different prepositions according to a system revolving around integration and centrality that seems to reflect actual behaviour. It is suggested that this behaviour be studied. A review of studies of linguistic conceptualization of domestic space in Hopi (Whorf & Malotki) and Yucatec (Hanks) shows that lexical structure alone does not pinpoint cultural characteristics - a study of language use is all-important. This is also the case of Tlapanec motion verbs which make a contrast between ‘base’ and ‘non-base’. The correct use of these verbs requires a culturally transmitted knowledge of what belongs where in the world - as do many other forms of behaviour. These observations are followed by a short review of other studies in the field of language and spatial orientation. Finally, the conclusion again stresses the need to integrate linguistic and anthropological thinking.
Gudernes rum og menneskenes univers. I de mayatalende lakandoneres verdenssyn
Authors: Marion Marie-Odile
Published: September 2021

In their mythology, the Lacandons - Indians living in the rain forest of Chiapas, Mexico - conceptualise a tripartite space of heaven, earth, and the underworld. The Lacandons perceive themselves as placed by the gods in the middle of a cosmic space that is created, delimitated and controlled by the two great celestial bodies: the couple of sun and moon. Through a detailed analysis of the symbolic representations of the sun and the gods of wind and rain, it is shown how all the most important features of the Lacandon universe is thought of as the outcome of complex interactions between solar and lunar principles. On the one hand, the workings of the sun (male) and the moon (female) create and recreate the essential qualities of the meteorological, climatic, and ecological spaces that constrain the forms of productive life. On the other hand, the Indians conceptualise the opposition, the alternation, and the complimentarity that characterise the relations between sun and moon as homological to the social forms of Lacandon reproduction. The ambivalent, complex, and multifacetted dialectics of lunar and solar principles reveal that cosmic equilibrium centres round the male-female bipolarity. It is argued that although the male qualities of the sun are considered higher and dominant, it is in faet the mythic image of the moon that metaphorises stability, completeness and totality.
