Investigating potential radiocarbon anomalies around the time of the Minoan eruption of Thera
The date of the Thera eruption has been a subject of intense debate since the mid-20th century. In recent years, the disagreements have escalated with the introduction of IntCal20. The increased number of annual measurements around the time period of the eruption has highlighted potential fluctuations in the atmospheric radiocarbon record, shedding new light on the date of the disastrous event. The Centre for Isotope Research in Groningen has alr…
Caveat emptor !—wiggle-matching European wood samples (AD 46–AD 286)
This study suggests that there may be considerable difficulties in providing accurate calendar age estimates in the Roman period in Europe, between ca. AD 60 and ca. AD 230, using the radiocarbon calibration datasets that are currently available. Incorporating the potential for systematic offsets between the measured data and the calibration curve using the ΔR approach suggested by Hogg et al. (2019), only marginally mitigates the biases in calen…
The Nature of Scientific Explanation
Issues regarding scientific explanation have been of interest to philosophers from Pre‐Socratic times. The notion of scientific explanation is of interest not only to philosophers, but also to science educators as is clearly evident in the emphasis given to K‐12 students' construction of explanations in current national science education reform efforts. Nonetheless, there is a dearth of research on conceptualizing explanation in science education…
“I got to see, and I got to be a part of it”
Constructing causal mechanistic explanations of observable phenomena is a key science practice that is often challenging for students as most mechanisms involve interactions of unobservable entities and activities. In this study, we examined how gesturing with a computer simulation that depicts the molecular mechanism of thermal conduction supported middle‐school students in constructing causal mechanistic explanations. We designed a gesture‐augm…
Supplying Theology's Missing Link
This essay argues that there is a serious deficiency in all sub-disciplines of theology, in their failure to ask the further question of how any of them might then seriously engage the believer in their conclusions. Philosophy of religion, biblical studies and systematic theology are surveyed in turn, to explore further the nature of this missing link, in imaginative engagement. While visual art is used to illustrate how this could be provided, i…
Annual Variation in Atmospheric 14 C Between 1700 BC and 1480 BC
In 2018 Pearson et al. published a new sequence of annual radiocarbon ( 14 C) data derived from oak ( Quercus sp.) trees from Northern Ireland and bristlecone pine ( Pinus longaeva ) from North America across the period 1700–1500 BC. The study indicated that the more highly resolved shape of an annually based calibration dataset could improve the accuracy of 14 C calibration during this period. This finding had implications for the controversial …
Perceptions of the Rule of Law
Objectives The purpose of this article is to determine whether judicial insulation influences how individuals assess the rule of law. Methods We employ panel data models using data collected by the World Bank and other sources to differentiate the influence of two kinds of judicial insulation—designed (de jure) and implemented (de facto)—on individuals’ perceptions of the viability of the rule of law in their country. Results We find that while i…
Realism and religious experience
In this article three types of objection to a realist account of religious experience are explored: (1) the unusual character of its object; (2) its unusual accompanying conditions; and (3) the conflicting content. In response to (1) it is noted that despite divine freedom not all types of encounter preclude predictability, while parallels are drawn with perception of other complex objects such as persons. At the same time the whole notion of sim…
Investigating the Interhemispheric 14 C Offset in the 1st Millennium AD and Assessment of Laboratory Bias and Calibration Errors
Past measurements of the radiocarbon interhemispheric offset have been restricted to relatively young samples because of a lack of older dendrochronologically secure Southern Hemisphere tree-ring chronologies. The Southern Hemisphere calibration data set SHCal04 earlier than AD 950 utilizes a variable interhemispheric offset derived from measured 2nd millennium AD Southern Hemisphere/Northern Hemisphere sample pairs with the assumption of stable …

Britain and the American South
Britain and the American South: From Colonialism to Rock and Roll edited by Joseph P. Ward, with essays by R. J. M. Blackett, Kathryn E. Holland Braund, Holly Brewer, S. Max Edelson, Franklin T.

In this volume of collected essays, historians analyze central aspects of the cultural exchanges between Britain and the American South. Along with the Spanish and the French, the Britis…
Attacking Slavery from Within
IT IS DIFFICULT TO THINK OF A FIGURE IN SOUTHERN HISTORY MORE NOTORIOUS in reputation, but the subject of so little rigorous scholarly investigation, as Hinton Rowan Helper (1829-1909). While many essays and biographical sketches have been written over the years, few have been based upon archival research, and basic details concerning Helper's life and career, particularly his family background, remain shrouded in mystery. (1) The controversy tha…

Variations of Radiocarbon in Tree Rings
The Queen's University of Belfast, Northern Ireland and University of Waikato, Hamilton, New Zealand radiocarbon laboratories have undertaken a series of high-precision measurements on decadal samples of dendrochronologically dated oak ( Quercus patrea ) and cedar ( Libocedrus bidwillii ) from Great Britain and New Zealand, respectively. The results show a real atmospheric offset of 3.4 ± 0.6% (27.2 ± 4.7 14 C yr) between the two locations for th…
The study of intraindividual differences by means of dynamic factor models
Study of reactive elements of behavior such as those responsible for mood disorder, arousal, and impulsivity often requires use of statistical models that involve time-bound relationships. P. C. M. Molenaar (1985) prposed the dynamic factor model for the analysis of multivariate repeated data. Conducting dynamic factor analyses using traditional structural equation programs is difficult because specification of such models involves extensive prog…

No Heaven Without Purgatory
If Purgatory is given a role at all in modern conceptions of the after–life, it is likely to be at most of the kind found in Hick and Rahner, in providing a second chance for those of whom it might be argued that they have had no proper opportunity in this life. Apart from its intermediate character, however, this account has very little in common with the traditional conception, whereas it seems to me that philosophical reasons, partly conceptua…

Hereditary Rank and Ethnic History
Various studies have shown that ethnic identities reflect current social alignments more than genuine differences of origin. This paper argues that ethnicity is fostered by systems of hereditary rank--the reverse of assimilation in societies with open hierarchies. Hence, societies with hereditary ranking systems may describe their past with a rhetoric of ethnic diversity, but the rhetoric may bear little or no relation to historic facts. As a soc…

E. A. Robinson's Later Poems
T HE public response to the narrative poems of Robinson which appeared after Tristram was chilly. The poems were praised, but usually with a hovering air of disappointment or uneasiness. The enormous popular success of Tristram, largely the result of the friendly advertising efforts of Robinson's literary admirers, has blinded critics, if not to the true value of the later poems, at least to their significance in Robinson's career. It is still to…
