Phantasmic Encounters in the Arctic: Haunting Materialities Beyond the Ghosts of War
Anthropology of Consciousness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In the vast north, ghostly experiences are common for locals and outsiders alike. Here, we explore how cultural‐natural attributes, like remoteness and extreme seasonal variation, compound experiences of the haunting in visceral ways. This provides the Arctic region with an unusually pronounced baseline of other‐than‐human agency, which in the

European Journal of Philosophy, EarlyView.Abstract This essay aims to reveal the conceptual unity of an ensemble of concepts of organic, animal, and anthropological life articulated by the young Karl Marx between 1842 and 1844. To lay the groundwork for my analysis, I begin with Marx's general account of “life as activity.” I argue that Marx articulates a hylomorphic theory of organic form in ...

Global regularization method for planar restricted three-body problem [PDF]
Serbian Astronomical Journal, 2015 In this paper, global regularization method for planar restricted three-body problem is purposed by using the transformation z = x+iy = ν cos n(u+iv), where i = √−1, 0 < ν ≤ 1 and n is a positive integer. The method is developed analytically and

Motion of Test Bodies in a Quasi-Newtonian Potential. II. Comparison with Experiments
Open Astronomy, 2003 The paper deals with the motion of test bodies in a Quasi-Newtonian potential for which the expressions corresponding to the effects of General Relativity are found. It is impossible to choose the values of parameters of the potential which could be in a

Imaging malaria parasites across scales and time
Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.Abstract The idea that disease is caused at the cellular level is so fundamental to us that we might forget the critical role microscopy played in generating and developing this insight. Visually identifying diseased or infected cells lays the foundation for any effort to curb human pathology.
