Abstract:Based upon their conviction that dominant thought paradigms in Western civilization are guilty of overrationalizing the human agent, the unorthodox contemporary philosophers Michel Serres and Michel Onfray attempt to rehabilitate the human body. These encyclopedic epistemologists, who have a marked predilection for scientific explanations of the world and our place in it, deconstruct extreme philosophical positions that correspond to the pervasive doctrine of rationalism. Adopting a rhizomatic vision of knowledge, Serres and Onfray maintain that the human body is one integrated organism in which everything works together in tandem enabling the subject to find meaning in a universe in which nothing has any pre-determined or fixed essence. Urging us to (re-)establish a direct, sensorial connection to the "world of things" to which everything including homo sapiens belongs by honing our deadened senses that have been numbed by the modern lifestyle and the ongoing evolutionary process they refer to as "hominisation," Serres and Onfray advocate in favor of an all-encompassing sensorial, hedonistic, biocentric ethic. In the current Anthropocene epoch, both philosophers convincingly demonstrate that the implementation of an ecocentric ethos linked to somatic communions with the rest of the material world could hold the key to averting the impending anthropogenic crisis.

Abstract:This article attempts to reveal larger patterns similar to those involved in chaos theory that are often overlooked in contemporary Latin American literature, described by literary critics as the most creative milieu of the modern period. The overt reference to modern quantum physics and chaos theory in the work of Jorge Luis Borges has long been recognized. However, it is the authors' belief that this focus on quantum physics and continuums has also long been a part of literary works that form part of the boom movement. The boom period also focuses on the political milieu, which surfaces in Latin American literature as a tradition of the fantastic, or magical realism. These elements are brought together through the kind of time that is only found in quantum physics: simultaneity.
摘要:本文试图揭示与混沌理论相似的更大的模式，这些模式在当代拉丁美洲文学中经常被忽视，被文学评论家描述为现代时期最具创造性的环境。博尔赫斯(Jorge Luis Borges)的著作中对现代量子物理学和混沌理论的公开引用早已得到认可。然而，作者们相信，这种对量子物理和连续体的关注也一直是文学作品的一部分，构成了繁荣运动的一部分。繁荣时期也关注政治环境，这在拉丁美洲文学中表现为幻想或魔幻现实主义的传统。这些元素通过一种只有在量子物理学中才能找到的时间结合在一起:同时性。

Abstract:This article examines Ælfric of Eynsham's use of alliteration within verse pairings and, more significantly, across line divisions, illustrating his technique of extra-linear alliteration within verse runs. This study touches on the Anglo-Saxon listeners' or readers' expectations for alliterative completion within the classical Old English verse line in order to demonstrate the truly unpredictable and exciting alliterative structure of the Ælfrician line and its neighboring verses, paying special attention to Ælfric's later non-hagiographic works Libellus de Veteri Testamento et Novo and Hexameron.
摘要：本文考察了Eynsham在诗歌配对中使用头韵的情况，更重要的是，在跨行划分中，展示了他在诗歌中使用超线性头韵的技巧。本研究触及了盎格鲁撒克逊听众或读者对古典古英语诗句中头韵完成的期望，以展示Ælfrician诗句及其相邻诗句的真正不可预测和令人兴奋的头韵结构，特别关注Ælfric后来的非圣徒传记作品Libellus de Veteri Testamento et Novo和Hexameron。

The catalogues of Dawson’s Book Store, Los Angeles’s longest-standing antiquarian bookstore, established in 1905, show California’s figurative representation in texts and bibliography. The catalogues’ indexing of historical and literary works on California—dubbed Californiana—reveal a specific conceptualization of regionalism structured around topography, travel literature, and historical pamphlets, among other material. The catalogues acted as guidebooks for customers to imaginatively explore California’s colonial past. This understanding of California’s history was juxtaposed with descriptions of a rapidly modernizing Los Angeles, situating Dawson’s at the threshold between a telescoped past and an on-rushing future. The catalogues’ curation of regional space was mirrored by the physical space of the bookstore’s Californiana department. As the catalogues were indexes of the shop’s continually changing stock, they invoke and challenge the structure of libraries, archives, and bibliograpies. This article contributes to discussions surrounding book collecting, regional literature and history, and the intersection of antiquarianism and modernity in Southern California.
道森书店(Dawson’s Book Store)是洛杉矶历史最悠久的古董书店，成立于1905年，它的目录展示了加州在文本和参考书目中的形象表现。目录对加利福尼亚(被称为加利福尼亚)的历史和文学作品进行索引，揭示了围绕地形、旅行文学和历史小册子以及其他材料构建的区域主义的具体概念。这些目录就像指南一样，让顾客富有想象力地探索加州的殖民历史。这种对加州历史的理解与对快速现代化的洛杉矶的描述并置，将道森置于缩小的过去和快速发展的未来之间的门槛。目录对区域空间的管理反映了书店加州部门的物理空间。由于目录是商店不断变化的库存的索引，它们调用和挑战图书馆、档案和书目的结构。本文讨论了南加州的图书收藏、地区文学和历史以及古物收藏与现代的交集。
