elements: A Pathfinder
This is a computer-generated pathfinder created against the Distant Reader study called elements.
Each Distant Reader study carrel is composed of many individual items. Each item is bibliographically described with author, title, date, summary, and keyword values. Below is a list of the items' most signficant keywords as well as lists of the items themselves. Purpusing the content of this pathfinder provides the student, researcher, or scholar with one way to get their heads around the scope of the carrel. The keywords include:
College; Women; Ibid; Time; Society; Life; People; History; War; Editor; States; Death; Boston; Students; Use; Work; Irish; Press; Language; Water; Film; Movement; State; Brain; System; Trade; Law; Violence; Levels; Energy; Market; Data; Government; City; Massachusetts; Food; Species; Asian; Body; Identity; Wikimedia; Environmental; Adoption; Cells; Reality; Response; London; Derrida; Health; Blood; Shelters; Bush; Hawaiian; Rodriguez; Remittances; Intelligentsia; Blue; Malaria; Alvaro; Corbis; Intelligence; Mod; Dna
Depending on how this pathfinder was created, many of the bibliographic sections will include elaborations on the meaning(s) of the given keywords. These elaborations were generated by feeding the items' summaries to a large langauge model and asking the model to address the question, "What is X?", where "X" is the keyword. The result will be a few sentences of elaboration. Be forewarned. The elaborations are often plausible, but they should not be take as truth. Instead, they should be taken as points for consideration.

- Raptus et Romaunce: Discussing the Incongruities of Chaucer and Feminism by Elements; Morales, Taylor (2022) - As the raptus statutes in England at the time were encompassing to the three di,erent facets of the term—sexual assault, abduction, and theft—when dealing with cases brought to the legal system, it is hard to retroactively pinpoint the exact o,ense that one Geo,rey Chaucer was found guilty of in his case of raptus against Cecilia Chaumpaigne in 1380. Touching on Sidhu’s comparison of William Langland to Geo,rey Chaucer when looking at their ability to use obscene comedy as a vehicle for political challenging, I would like to add that the reason Chaucer was more successful in his critique of the societal status quo— referring to the perceptions of women specifically— because of his physical proximity to London.

- From Mammy to Mommy: Michelle Obama and the Reclamation of Black Motherhood by Querusio, David (2015) - The tension be- tween Melissa Harris-Perry’s and Michelle Cottle’s views of Michelle Obama echoes years of distance between white and black feminisms, as white women vie to free them- selves from the very domestic sphere that black women struggle to enter. Harris, through Philyaw, argues that while white women were fighting for the right to pursue a career instead of motherhood, black women wanted the opposite.

- Elements Fall 2014 Issue by Boboc, Paul; Centrella, Nick; DiRenno, Frank A.; Krasner, Tate; Pinsak, Samantha; Sangimino, Missa; Scollan, Margaret; Vladimirova, Stacia (2014) - When men either chose to adopt the feminine, passive role in the in- teraction, or submit other men to it, they flagrantly ignored the “proper” masculine behavior, and accordingly they were put under heavy scrutiny and regulations in an at- tempt to return things to the status quo. Leon Bat- tista Alberti, who focused mainly on the Florentine family, believed that a man “should do all that is proper to a man” while avoiding womanly activities, inherently contributing to the separation of distinct gender roles.12 Of course, one of the important tasks of a man that Alberti and other au- thors recognized was to be an authoritative figure to both women and other lower status men.

Similarly, Emily Bartels describes how racism is a twentieth century construction, but racist ideol- ogy was already taking hold in pre-imperialist England.3 As “the Moor of Venice,” Othello seemingly takes on the iden- tity of being the sole minority figure in the city, or at least the symbol of racial difference.

- Elements Fall 2013 Issue by Pellissier, Marie; Lu, Tracy; Newhouse, James; Marinello, Claire; Sintobin, Emilie; Dorney, Jordan; Givens, Cameron (2013) - A maternity corset from the collections of the Victoria and Albert Museum indicates just how far a woman might go to preserve her shape during pregnancy: aside from lacing on the sides that could be loosened as the fetus grew, and gussets to accommodate a changing breast, this corset is still fully boned and does not sacrifice fashion for the sake of the pregnant woman or the unborn child.30 This refusal on the part of many women to give up fashionable dress even while pregnant generated many criticisms from doc- tors and dress reformers, who believed that the first duty of a woman was to be a wife and a mother, and so by lacing themselves tightly during pregnancy they were acting against nature itself.

- Inherited Injustice: Stigma and Gender Discrimination as Barriers to AIDS Prevention in India by Larrabee, Catherine (2015) - As Cecilia Van Hol- len notes, “While the government of India has made prog- ress increasing the availability of prevention of mother-to- child transmission of HIV services, only about one quarter of pregnant women received an HIV test in 2010, and about one-in-five that were found positive for HIV received interventions to prevent vertical transmission of HIV”.10 Despite the successes of PPTCT, the majority of HIV-posi- tive pregnant women in India remain vulnerable to verti- cal transmission. Further- more, a study of pregnant women in western India sug- gests the following: “[A woman’s] HIV risk perception seems more influenced by her socio-demographic status and her couple relationship than by her level of HIV-related knowledge… the significant factors identified in this study point out to the fact that risk perception and hence risk reduction among pregnant women, and probably overall women within stable heterosexual couples, must go far beyond imparting knowledge about HIV and must address the more deep-rooted issues such as partner communication, domestic violence, alcoholism, and lack of education among women.

- Our Lady Of Impossibility: Gendered Standards In Islam And Christianity by Chou, Lindsey (2016) - Given the acceptance of menstruation as “defil- ing,” the conflation of Mary’s virginity with her worth, and the reduction of her identity and value to being the obedi- ent owner of a uterus, it becomes clear that the ways in which we affirm Mary matters are framed within the rules of what matters most for men. She is, by her essence, sacred.15 The melding of this standard set by Fátima with that of Mary blurs the boundaries between Christian and Islamic expectations for women.

- Limitations of Secularization and Western Feminism In the Arab World: Religion, Culture, and Identity by Howe, Emma (2017) - One such significant effect of the dominant “representa- tions” of Western feminism is its likeness to imperialism in its view of particular third world women. in order to adequately address this issue, it is crucial to exam- ine the context in Which these Western theories Were initially developed, taking into account the developmental and consequential failures of the “secularization the- sis,” as Well as the construction of Western feminism and its limitations in the mus- lim World.

- A Pageant Politicized: Women’s Liberation, Miss Black America and Intersectionality in 1968 by Cormier, Haley Sierra (2017) - The women’s liberation protest and Miss Black America thus individually garnered attention for their critiques of the official Miss America Pageant, but did the women in- volved in these contemporaneous protests (and, by exten- sion, other followers of their respective movements) sup- port each other’s goals? The fact that historical scholarship has been influenced by misrepresentative print media accounts of the 1968 women’s liberation and Miss Black America protests— accounts that arose, as I have demonstrated, through omission and framing—underscores the importance of considering journalistic conventions when analyzing press coverage as a primary source.

- “Do not kill them, lest my people forget”: Changes in Attitudes Towards Jews in Twelfth- and Thirteenth-Century England by Reilly, Rebecca Colleen (2018) - since economic reason- ing alone does not explain the treatment of the Jews in the latter half of the thir- teenth century, this essay also examines instances of anti-Jewish violence and suc- cessive plantagenet kings’ policies targeting the Jews, indentifying them as indicators or constructions of religious and national alterity. The later moral preaching discouraging intermarriage and interaction may have been a response to this behavior which, he points out, was either widespread or widely known.10 Attacks on Jews throughout Europe appear in records around the time of the First Crusade, but records from the time do not even seem to evidence a collective English awareness of Jews.11 The “blood libel” legend and accusations of ritual murder that emerge in the mid-twelfth century appear to have been a factor in increasing anti-Jewish attitudes, but it seems more plausible to read the incidences as symptom- atic instead of pathological.

Isocrates writes “[The philosophical arts] require much care, and are the task of manly and idea-filled minds” (17).61 Plato directly satirizes this claim in the Gor- gias when Socrates tells Callicles and Gorgias how he con- ceives of rhetoric (bear in mind that Plato created the word “rhetoric” (rhētorikē) in this dialogue to describe the ora- torical technē and contrast it to philosophy).62 Socrates claims, “It seems to me, Gorgias, to be a non-technical pursuit, but rather, one of the manly and guess-prone mind.

The islands themselves even reflected these dif- ferences to an extreme degree; on islands like Jamaica and Cuba, lush tropical forests dominated the landscape and contrasted sharply with the islands of the sandy and flat Bahama archipelago.1,2 Exoticism, to most Europeans, remained a very broad term at this time, but the consensus on its definition seems to include foreign flora, fauna, climate, societies, and language.

- Trauma, Fear, and Paranoia: Lost and the Culture of 9/11 by Aldrich, Rachel (2015) - If the experiences of the survivors on Lost are any indication, then it is clear that the anger and debates in American society will only serve to further endanger a country that is already living in a world of loss, terror, and trauma. Through the imagery employed, the topics discussed, and the gen- eral themes of the show, Lost is able to hold a mirror to the face of post-9/11 American society and provide a critique of how, if at all possible, Americans can change the reflection they see staring back at them.

- Dissent in the Wirtschaftswunder: Historical Memory and the German Student Movement by Walker, Alec (2015) - As a student-produced pamphlet described, the protestors were objecting to a leader who had “been shown to have tortured and murdered hun- dreds of politicians, journalists, students, and workers” — a despot who embodied every authoritarian tendencies.22 However, despite various accounts of police brutality and the murder of student activist Benno Ohnesorg, the pro- testors remained peaceful, establishing themselves as the antithetical, historically aware opposition. The movement’s antiauthoritarianism, its main mode of leaving the stric- tures of the university, was also historical in nature, calling into question not only their current leaders, but also the regimes of Adenauer and the Third Reich and what they saw as their repressive tendencies — seeking to engage more with the public and bring it to awareness.25 Rather than a movement of divisive violence, Rudi Dutschke, the SDS, and the students in general sought a universal “coalition of workers and students in the organi- zational form of [revolutionary] councils.”26 Keywords: dutschke; germany; history; movement; power; revolution; society; students

Instead, following Benja- min, Metz re-articulates faith as a “praxis in history and society” that struggles to speak about God from the under- side of modernity.8 In this paper, I read Kendrick Lamar’s “Sing About Me, I’m Dying of Thirst” as a performance of dangerous memory.9 Keywords: death; dying; kendrick; lamar; life; metz; sin; theology; thirst; track; verse
- Convict the Deviant: Masculinity and Rape in Early America by Quigley, Katherine (2016) - itself.40 The rape of a white woman by a black man indicated a sense of manly independence that was highly threatening to white men living in a race-based hierarchy.41 When reviewing Arthur’s narrative, one must understand his actions within the context of the slave system that Ar- thur actively rebelled against. Americans saw British soldiers as rapists and, like black men, they were overrepresented in print accounts of rape.66 The rape of innocent American “In his warning, Arthur connected his fate to racial power dynamics, as he blamed his own rebellion for his execution.” 20 ElEmEnts : : spring 2016 women and girls by the lecherous agents of a corrupt po- litical system was a powerful tool that Americans used to justify their disregard for British authority.67 While this may not have been the prime motivation for Young’s con- viction and execution, this unforgiving image of British soldiers nevertheless impacted how members of the jury and public thought of Robert Young.

- Dreams and Sexuality: A Psychoanalytical Reading of Klimt's Beethoven Frieze by Flythe, Benjamin R. (2016) - The German artist Max Klinger had very recently completed a monumental, polychrome sculpture of the composer and, “intent on being the first venue for the statue’s display, the Secession approached Klinger and proposed to venerate his masterpiece with a new, avant-garde style of exhibition…”8 Their proposal made use of the unique opportunity afforded them by the Secession building; called “Tempelkunst,” they offered to feature Klinger’s Beethoven in a space specially constructed so as to highlight the piece, paying homage both to the art- ist and Klinger himself—all the while highlighting, of course, the art of the Secessionists.9 It is my suggestion that Klimt’s contribution to the fourteenth exhibition, the infamous Beethoven Frieze more so than nearly any of Klimt’s prior or later works, is one that provides an abso- lutely critical key to understanding the psycho-sexual crisis that contributed to the artist’s radical shift in style. [Be embrac’d, ye millions yonder!/ Take this kiss throughout the world!/ Brothers—o’er the stars unfurl’d/ Must reside a loving Father.]”10 Ernst Stöhr, a painter and lesser-known Secession artist, evidently helped Klimt devise the program of the Beethoven Frieze—and he almost certainly wrote the foreword to the exhibition’s pro- gram.11 Having little to do with Beethoven himself “as an historic figure or spiritual leader,”12 Stöhr’s description of the Beethoven Frieze’s content from the exhibition program presents a fin-de-siècle interpretation of the composition of the Ninth Symphony and reads as follows: The three painted walls constitute a coherent sequence.

- Two Separate Persons: Ethnicity and Identity in Trollope's Phineas Finn by Heine, Jennifer (2016) - According to Patrick Lonergan’s “The Representation Of Phineas Finn: Anthony Trollope’s Palliser Series And Victorian Ireland,” “Phineas’s nationality has been ignored because of Trollope’s statement that he believed it was a ‘blunder’ to make his hero an Irishman… it is disappointing that Phineas’s nationality has been ignored or dismissed by literary critics. Jane Elizabeth Dougherty contrasts this in “An Angel In The House: The Act Of Union And Anthony Trollope’s Irish Hero,” claiming that the opposite effect can be discerned: Because Trollope himself called attention to the “blunder”… many of these critics have examined the importance of Phineas’s ethnicity to the story… Clearly, critics have not yet reached a consensus on the tricky subject of the ethnicity of Phineas Finn, and its effects on the characterizations, composition, trajectory, and reception of Trollope’s… novel.3 One can conclude, though, that Phineas’s Irish heritage was originally intended to improve upon the novel’s hero.

The researchers evaluated five target behaviors: joy, emotional synchronicity, initiation of engagement, compliant re- sponse, and no response.7 Kim, Wingram, and Gold found that the frequency of joy events steadily increased over the course of 12 sessions in music therapy conditions, whereas joy events remained stable at zero in toy play sessions.8 Similarly, children initi- ated engagement with the therapist more in music therapy than in toy therapy.

- Venezuela in Crisis: A Backgrounder by Mejia, Jorge Steven (2018) - This collapse of Puntofijismo ran parallel with the emergence of an alternative political project of special relevance to contemporary Venezuela: Hugo Chávez’s Bolivarianismo. This duality, while seemingly contradictory, helps to situate contemporary Venezuela within its prior development (e.g., pacted democracy and a rentier economy), but also account for contingencies (e.g., Chávez’s 1999 constitu- tional reform and regime hybridity).

- Alternative Truths: The Construction Of Narratives In The Rodney King Trial by Kim, Soyeon (2016) - Yet, the video of King’s beating in 1992 was the first time that the problem of po- lice brutality appeared on the national radar, though many black people contend that this problem of police brutality existed long before 1992 and that the Rodney King case was only the first time it was caught on tape.7 Thus, the local and national outrage at the verdict was unsurprising: the video “clearly” showed that the beating was a case of police brutality, that excessive force was used against Rod- ney King, and that King consequently suffered a multitude of injuries—and yet, all four policemen in the Rodney King case were not convicted. Thus, rather than a whole that represented one thing—i.e., the police brutally beating Rodney King— the video became a series of distinct images and events, from the police’s perceived signs of aggression from King, to the police making the reasoned decision to contain this threat, to the strikes with the batons themselves.28 These still images made King appear more active than in the video, and therefore gave the jurors an illusion of move- ment and power to King, which they were quick to believe due to their ideology.

- Food for Thought: How Food and Economics Intersect in Rural Ecuador by Stone, Lindsay (2018) - The availability of both new foodstuffs and new socioeco- nomic hierarchies, which were established after the arrival of the Spanish conquerors, also led to a decreased con- sumption of many traditional foods. Ultimately, as a result of socioeconomic influences and Ecuador’s history of colonization, repression, and class- stratification, food in Ecuadorian society can be seen to function in a semiotic manner, endowed with meaning according to cultural signification and its dissimilarity from other foods.

- Let the Sun do the Work: Analyzing the Economic and Environmental Performance of Residential PV-battery systems in Massachusetts by Elements; Rostad, Thomas (2022) - The “Lifetime NPV” model makes it very clear that government subsidies still play a crucial role in supporting the economic viability of PV battery systems in Massachusetts. The “Year One Energy Flows” model quantifies a household’s hourly energy flows over a year under three scenarios that use the same annual hourly electricity consumption profile: Baseline scenario represents a household with neither solar panels, nor battery system, Standalone PV scenario represents a household with solar panels, but no battery system, and PV-battery scenario represents a household with both solar panels and an integrated battery system.

One way to mini- mize the cost is to decrease the amount of material by us- ing thin film solar cells. Keywords: absorption; cells; dots; energy; quantum; solar; urbach; value; voc; voltage
Market
- Positive Law vs. Good Intentions: The Legality of the Comcast-Time Warner Cable Merger by Tune, Harrison (2015) - It is also worth noting that extensive and reactionary government involvement in areas such as ISP markets should be ad- vised against because of the dangerous precedent and in- centives that could be established as a result. As per antitrust statutes, this proposed transaction is cur- rently under review by the U.S. Department of Justice, which is responsible for the regulation of mergers that substantially limit competition in a given market.1 The De- partment of Justice considers two primary aspects con- cerning horizontal mergers — the lessening of competi- tion and the over-consolidation of market share that confers a monopoly.2 In the case of the merger submitted by the Applicants (Comcast Corporation and Time Warner Cable, Inc.), the Department of Justice considers the change in competi- tion caused when two companies in the same market merge and the increased market share they will control as both a Multichannel Video Programming Distributor (MVPD) and an Internet Service Provider (ISP).

We can perform similar calculations for An where n ≡ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 (mod 6), thereby allowing us to quickly find An for any n. Hence, we can easily determine An for any n, allow- ing us to rule out many composite dreibens. Keywords: mod
