  • Humor, emotion, and interpretive communities in the controversy over Jerry Springer

    Open AccessP S Martins, Paul S MartinARTICLEHumor - International Journal of…2024Referencias: 2

    Satires that tackle religion have always courted controversy. When Jerry Springer: The Opera was originally aired on the BBC in 2005, the show received 63,000 complaints and Christian Voice attempted to prosecute Mark Thompson (the Director General of the BBC) for blasphemy for airing the show. In this article I draw on the work of Stanley Fish and Gerben van Kleef to argue that interpretive communities of emotional readers provide a valuable fra…

  • Introduction to the special issue

    Open AccessP S Martins, Paul S Martin et al.ARTICLEHumor - International Journal of…2024Citada por: 1Referencias: 12

    This paper considers the alleged incompatibility of humour and religion, identifies the need for a multifaceted approach to the study of humour and religion, and spotlights important scholarship on humour and religion. It also outlines how this special issue emerged from an online symposium organized by the editors (Nicole Graham and Paul S Martin) in 2020 titled: The Sacred and The Profanity: Humour, Religion and Ritual, hosted by the University…

  • Cleansing the Palate

    P S Martins, Paul MartinARTICLEIllinois Classical Studies2018Referencias: 8

    This article explores how Lucian’s satire is conceptualized in the Lexiphanes through analysis of the presentation of Lexiphanes’s illness and its diagnosis and cure. Lexiphanes is portrayed as suffering from melancholy, which is diagnosed and cured by Lycinus with the help of the doctor Sopolis. I argue that, by drawing on contemporary medical theory and practice, Lucian aligns himself with Lycinus and figures his satire as an emetic whose parrh…

  • The Bukidnon of Mindanao

    Open AccessFay‐cooper Cole, Fay-Cooper Cole et al.BOOKThe Bukidnon of Mindanao2013Citada por: 7Referencias: 2

    The material presented in this volume was gathered in the first seven months of 1910, while I conducted the R. F. Cummings Philippine Ex- pedition for Field Museum of Natural History (now Chicago Natural His- tory Museum). During that period a detailed study was made of the every- day life, customs and beliefs of the Bukidnon of north-central Mindanao in the Philippines, and collections were made to illustrate that life in the Museum

  • Citizen Participation and Congressional Responsiveness

    Open AccessP S Martins, Paul S Martin et al.ARTICLELegislative Studies Quarterly2013Citada por: 7Referencias: 34

    This article examines the influence of citizen participation, specifically voter turnout, on congressional policy responsiveness. We argue that higher levels of citizen participation signal to representatives greater surveillance of their actions by their constituents and, thus, a higher probability of sanction. Representatives respond to these signals by deploying resources in ways that provide better intelligence of district needs and preferenc…

  • The Third Face of Social Capital

    Open AccessMichele P Claibourn, Michele Claibourn et al.ARTICLEPolitical Research Quarterly2007Citada por: 12Referencias: 18

    This article examines whether political accountability—the heart of a functioning democracy—is enhanced by citizen participation in voluntary associations. The authors contend that involvement in associations offers an easy avenue for acquiring political information, thereby aiding citizens in evaluating the president on the basis of the policies produced by the president. General Social Survey data from ten years, paired with presidential policy…

    Deliberative Choices: Debating Public Policy in Congress. By Gary Mucciaroni and Paul J. Quirk. Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 2006. 296p. $50.00 cloth, $20.00 paper.Gary Mucciaroni and Paul Quirk have done the field a service by reminding us that Congress is a deliberative body, even if it is not always a good deliberative body. The authors foreshadow their findings, stating: “Congressional debate is only moderately realistic and informed…

  • Inside the Black Box of Negative Campaign Effects

    Open AccessP S Martins, Paul S MartinARTICLEPolitical Psychology2004Citada por: 64Referencias: 28

    The debate over the effect of negative campaigns on vote turnout has not been settled. At present, studies demonstrating a mobilization effect seem to have the upper hand. However, neither side has offered a compelling theory of the causal mechanisms that connect negative campaigns and voter turnout. This paper identifies three mechanisms of voter motivation—republican duty, candidate threat, and perceived closeness of the election—and tests the …

  • Voting's Rewards

    P S Martins, Paul S MartinARTICLEAmerican Journal of Political…2003

    Scholars have had limited success empirically demonstrating the importance of political participation. This study shows that political participation matters because it influences political rewards. Political participation, specifically voting, acts as a political resource for geographic groups. Voting is a resource because members of Congress seek to maximize the benefits of Federal budget allocations going to their districts. Members of Congress…

  • Ground Sloth Extinction and Human Occupation at Gruta Del Indio, Argentina

    Open AccessAustin Long, P S Martins et al.ARTICLERadiocarbon1997Citada por: 27Referencias: 9

    A new set of radiocarbon dates from a rockshelter in Mendoza, Argentina addresses the question of the temporal overlap between the presence of an unidentified extinct ground sloth (cf., Mylodontidae) and evidence of human activity. Dung balls on the cave floor, evidently deposited by sloth, are overlain by charcoal, apparently of cultural origin. 14 C dates, mostly on charcoal and dung from this shelter, calibrated using recently published curves…

  • Mammoth Extinction

    Open AccessP S Martins, Paul S Martin et al.ARTICLERadiocarbon1995Citada por: 12Referencias: 12

    A harvest of 300 radiocarbon dates on extinct elephants (Proboscidea) from the northern parts of the New and Old Worlds has revealed a striking difference. While catastrophic in North America, elephant extinction was gradual in Eurasia (Stuart 1991), where straight-tusked elephants ( Palaeoloxodon antiquus ) vanished 50 millennia or more before woolly mammoths ( Mammuthus primigenius ). The range of the woolly mammoths started shrinking before 20…

  • Dung of Mammuthus in the Arid Southwest, North America

    Open AccessJim I Mead, Larry D Agenbroad et al.ARTICLEQuaternary Research1986

    The discovery of a unique organic deposit in a dry cave on the Colorado Plateau, southern Utah, permits the first comparison of the physical characteristics and the diet of the dung of the extinct mammoths from the arid Southwest, North America, with that of mammoths from Siberia and northern China, the only other known locations of such remains. The deposit buried beneath sand and rockfall is composed primarily of mammoth dung, estimated at over…

  • Shasta Ground Sloth ( Nothrotheriops shastense Hoffstetter) at Shelter Cave, New Mexico

    Open AccessRobert S Thompson, Thomas R Van Devender et al.ARTICLEQuaternary Research1980

    Seven coprolites of the extinct Shasta ground sloth ( Nothrotheriops shastense ) were recently discovered in the Los Angeles County Museum collection from Shelter Cave, New Mexico. Three dung balls provided radiocarbon ages of 11,330, 12,330 and 12,430 yr B.P. Packrat ( Neotoma ) middens disclose a xeric juniper woodland at Shelter Cave during the sloth's occupation. Plant cuticles from the dung indicate that the ground sloth had a diet dominated…

    In recent years, changes have occurred in the goals of archaeology due to recent advances in methodology, application of the rules of the logic of science, and the uses of sophisticated computer techniques. The author views these changes, placing them into historical context, and discusses not only the emergence of the new paradigm, but also its implications for the field

    P S Martins, John B RinaldoCitada por: 3

    In the season of 1958, a fifty-room pueblo was excavated, located on the ranch of Mr. Mark Davis, who permitted the excavation of the site and to ship back to the Museum all of the materials that were recovered and that are described herein. The site was first reported by Spier (1918). He noted the presence of Hopi-like yellow pottery and Zuni glazes from several other sites in the vicinity. Dr. John B. Rinaldo observed the pueblo in 1956 during …
