First Published in 1996. This series presents the music of early American composers of sacred music—psalmody, as it was called—in collected critical editions. The purpose of the series is to present the music of important early American composers in accurate editions for both performance and study. This volume presents the music of Elias Mann, a Massachusetts psalmodist active from about 1785 to 1810.
Jacob French (1754-1817): The Collected Works
Jacob French, a student of William Billings, was one of the most talented postrevolutionary composers of Protestant sacred music in New England. He compiled most of his music in three printed tunebooks, comprising choral pieces of great rhythmic and contrapuntal variety. He felt many excellently crafted, expressive compositions that should find interest among today's choral directors and singers.

One-liner: A framework for intelligence analysts to use to think systematically about the potential for the rise of a peer competitor to the United States. The potential emergence of a peer competitor is probably the most important long-term planning challenge for the Department of Defense. This report addresses the issue by developing a conceptual framework of how a proto-peer (meaning a state that is not yet a peer but has the potential to become one) might interact with the hegemon (the dominant global power). The central aspect of the framework is an interaction between the main strategies for power aggregation available to the proto-peer and the main strategies for countering the rise of a peer available to the hegemon. Then, using exploratory modeling techniques, the pathways of the various proto-peer and hegemon interactions are modeled to identify the specific patterns and combinations of actions that might lead to rivalries. The dominant power has an array of options available to limit the growth of its rivals or to change their ultimate intentions.Too confrontational a strategy, however, risks making a potential neutral power into a foe, while too conciliatory a stance may speed the growth of a competitor. Exploratory modeling suggests which attributes of the countries are most important and the sensitivity of the dominant power to perception errors.

A central goal of transportation is the delivery of safe and efficient services with minimal environmental impact. In practice, though, human mobility has flourished while nature has suffered. Awarness of the environmental impacts of roads is increasing, yet information remains scarce for those interested in studying, understanding, or minimizing the ecological effects of roads and vehicles. Road Ecology addresses that shortcoming by elevating previously localized and fragmented knowledge into a broad and inclusive framework for understanding and developing solutions. The book brings together fourteen leading ecologists and transportation experts to articulate state-of-the-science road ecology principles and presents specific examples that demonstrate the application of those principles.

The definitive book on what is known about the Late Pleistocene and Early Holocene archaeological record in the Southeast The 1996 benchmark volume The Paleoindian and Early Archaic Southeast, edited by David G. Anderson and Kenneth E. Sassaman, was the first study to summarize what was known of the peoples who lived in the Southeast when ice sheets covered the northern part of the continent and mammals such as mammoths, saber-toothed cats, and ground sloths roamed the landscape.The American Southeast at the End of the Ice Age provides an updated, definitive synthesis of current archaeological research gleaned from an array of experts in the region. It is organized in three parts: state records, the regional perspective, and reflections and future directions. Chapters survey a diversity of topics including the distribution of the earliest archaeological sites in the region, chipped-stone tool technology, the expanding role of submerged archaeology, hunter-gatherer lifeways, past climate changes and the extinction of megafauna on the transitional landscape, and evidence of demographic changes at the end of the Ice Age. Discussion of the ethical responsibilities regarding the use of private collections and the relationship of archaeologists and the avocational community, insight from outside the Southeast, and considerations for future research round out the volume.

An evolutionary and cognitive account of the addictive mind candy that is humor.Some things are funny-jokes, puns, sitcoms, Charlie Chaplin, The Far Side, Malvolio with his yellow garters crossed-but why? Why does humor exist in the first place? Why do we spend so much of our time passing on amusing anecdotes, making wisecracks, watching The Simpsons? In Inside Jokes, Matthew Hurley, Daniel Dennett, and Reginald Adams offer an evolutionary and cognitive perspective. Humor, they propose, evolved out of a computational problem that arose when our long-ago ancestors were furnished with open-ended thinking. Mother Nature-aka natural selection-cannot just order the brain to find and fix all our time-pressured misleaps and near-misses. She has to bribe the brain with pleasure. So we find them funny. This wired-in source of pleasure has been tickled relentlessly by humorists over the centuries, and we have become addicted to the endogenous mind candy that is humor.

In 'DARKENED BY LIGHT-Les Po mes De L'Ombres', you will not find anything that is not overshadowed. The title itself may sound confounding to some, though in truth, there can be no shadow without light and it is within those shadows that these little passages have come to me. Not macabre or morbid . . . simply written for those with an appreciation for some things out of the ordinary.
Eterofenomenologia e filosofia della mente in Daniel C. Dennett
Il rapporto tra consapevolezza e cervello (Mind-Body Problem) centrale nella riflessione sul 'mentale' in filosofia e psicologia. L'influente filosofo Daniel Dennett, discutendo una serie di dati sperimentali ottenuti con particolari tecniche di indagine, critica la concezione di un 'Io' centrale, l'idea di identit personale unitaria caratterizzata da continuit della coscienza. Proponendo una metodologia interpretativa detta 'eterofenomenologia', come approccio oggettivo scientifico al mondo introspettivo del parlante (i fenomeni della sua esperienza soggettiva e la sua trama di autonarrazioni), designa il 'S ' come baricentro narrativo del corpo. E definisce 'atteggiamento intenzionale' l'attribuzione di credenze, giudizi, desideri e aspettative, al titolare degli atti linguistici, ritenuto come agente razionale che regola la scelta dei suoi comportamenti. Il rapporto tra l'eterofenomenologo e il soggetto narrante assimilabile alla relazione psicoterapeutica tra terapeuta e paziente. L'originale e singolare teoria di Dennett riveste specifico interesse per filosofi, psicologi, formatori e chiunque opera nel campo delle neuroscienze, della clinica e della didattica.
Irreduzibilität des Bewusstseins und dessen Implikationen bei David J. Chalmers und Daniel C. Dennett
Bachelorarbeit aus dem Jahr 2021 im Fachbereich Philosophie - Philosophie der Gegenwart, Note: 1,7, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universit t M nchen (Fakult t f r Philosophie), Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Die Frage nach dem Wesen des Bewusstseins ist eine der zentralen und auch verbl ffendsten Fragen der Menschheit, die wahrscheinlich seit der Zeit gestellt wird, als der Geist im Menschen erwacht ist und nach Erkenntnis rief. In der t glichen Erfahrung ist das Bewusstsein allgegenw rtig und subjektive Erlebnisse sind auf so einer direkten Art und Weise gegeben, dass niemand unter normalen Umst nden deren Existenz in Frage stellen w rde. Die Neurowissenschaften versuchen seit langer Zeit erfolglos, ein Korrelat des Bewusstseins im menschlichen Gehirn zu finden, und es ist fraglich, ob das jemals gelingen kann. Ren Descartes, sah das Bewusstsein gar nicht im Gehirn verortet, sondern postulierte eine res cogitans, eine eigene Substanz des denkenden Geistes, unabh ngig von der res extensa, der K rperwelt. David J. Chalmers, mit dessen 1996 erschienenen Buch "The Conscious Mind - In Search of a Fundamental Theory" diese Bachelorarbeit sich haupts chlich besch ftigt, fragt nach dem subjektiven Charakter des Bewusstseins und dessen Status in einer vor allem naturwissenschaftlich, physikalisch gepr gten Welt. Im Verlauf dieser Arbeit wird sich zeigen, dass die Existenz des Bewusstseins von Chalmers nicht in Frage gestellt wird, aber es schwierig ist, Bewusstsein zu fassen, da es eben nicht aus der Perspektive der dritten Person erkl rt werden kann. Mit Hilfe u. a. des Zombiearguments zeigt er, dass consciousness nicht global logisch ber dem Physikalischen superveniert, nicht auf das Physikalische reduzierbar ist und das der Physikalismus falsch ist. Er beschreibt einen "Naturalistic dualism", einen speziellen Eigenschaftsdualismus der consciousness als grundlegendes Prinzip "over and above" des Physikalismus betrachtet. Die Darstellung von David Chalmers negativer Theorie im Te
