Socially Embedded Benefaction on Delos
This chapter considers the ‘vase festivals’ recorded on Hellenistic Delos as benefactions, and then considers the implications of this approach on our chronology for the period. It argues that the vase festival was a socially constrained form of competitive display, one open only to Delians and others who successfully sought and negotiated this privilege. Through the endowment and the associated display, these individuals claimed and performed a …
Living and Dying on the Factory Floor: From the Outside In and the Inside Out
Part memoir and part reflective essay, David Ranney's Living and Dying on the Factory Floor is an absorbing read. Shakespeare tells us that “old men forget,” but seventy-nine-year-old Ranney has not forgotten much, and he demonstrates that his experience of industrial life forty years ago still holds lessons for labor activists and scholars today. In the late 1970s, Professor Ranney left academia to do manual work in steel fabrication shops, rend…

By 1907, some 200,000 nautical miles of cable criss-crossed the ocean floors. Insulation of the cables from seawater relied on gutta-percha, a natural plastic related to rubber. Gutta-percha is all but forgotten today, but during the Victorian era it was a household word. Ironically, the high-tech Vic…
