My dear friend, It was your particular request, before you went to the South Seas, that I should continue my researches into the formation and growth of <italic>Zoophytes</italic>, more particularly of those formerly called <italic>Ceratophytons</italic>, now <italic>Gorgoniæ</italic>; and known in English by the name of sea-fans, sea-feathers, and sea-whips, to which class the red coral should be added. This you thought the more necessary, as the accounts already published of them by the illustrious Dr. Linnæs and Dr. Pallas seemed to make them of a mixed nature in their growth, between animals and vegetables: a thing not easily to be reconciled to the usual operations of nature. I was so fortunate about that time to receive from my right honourable friend the earl of Hillsborough, a most excellent collection of different species of these animals preserved at the sea-side in spirits, by John Greg, esq. F.R.S. of Dominica. This hath enabled me to shew more clearly, that they are true animals, growing up in a branched form, and in no part vegetable.

Learning from the Germans. Race and the Memory of Evil examines German efforts to atone for Nazi atrocities and identifies lessons on how the United States might come to terms with its legacy of slavery and racism. Divided into three parts (German lessons, Southern discomfort, and Setting things straight), the book brings together historical and philosophical analysis; interviews with politicians, activists, and contemporary witnesses in Germany and the United States; and Neiman’s own first-person observations as a white woman growing up in the South and a Jewish woman who has lived for almost three decades in Berlin.

Abstract The article* focuses on two Estonian fairy tale types that have been recorded among the Orthodox Seto minority in the south-eastern corner of Estonia. In the index of Estonian folktales they have been described under tales of magic (fairy tales) as tale types Ee 328C* and Ee 327H*. One of the tale types observed is a masculine folk tale (one with male protagonists), the other can be considered a feminine folk tale with female protagonists despite it seemingly having two main characters of different genders. In both tales the protagonists reach a hostile place after moving through liminality, and both tales can be interpreted as tales of growing up.

Significant Change

This paper primarily presents the trajectory of growing up in South Asia drawing insights from the selected novels about South Asian youths (SA youths). In this process, the paper explores the political interest of the West in non-Western children and youths. The focus is on the exploration of whether contemporary youth literatures have still been reinforcing the image of SA youths as the Other of the European youths, or if there has been any significant change augmented by the recent phenomenon of global connectedness. By laying a framework of these forces for analyzing how they are reflected in the literatures for the South Asian youths by foreign, diaspora and home authors, this paper prepares a ground for further exploration.

The Impact

This article closely examines oral histories of b-boys Aby and Kwikstep, b-girl Baby Love, and poppers Cartoon and Wiggles, and the social choreography necessary to navigate the streets of the South Bronx in the 1970s and 1980s that has an indelible link to four core battling principles as articulated by 1970s b-boy Trac2: survivalism, strategizing, nomadism, and illusionism. By comparing and contrasting foundational elements of battling techniques with life lessons about growing up in the Bronx, the comparison signals the impact of “outlaw culture” within hip-hop, and the counterdominant sensibilities taught in battle cyphers.
