Masochistic dreams
Masochistic dreams, as defined by Beck (1967), are reportedly more prevalent among women and individuals with past or present depression. However, it is unclear whether these prevalence differences are a function of depressogenic personality traits or fluctuating mood symptoms. In the present study, 30 men and 30 women without histories of major depression slept two consecutive nights in a sleep laboratory and reported their dreams from each REM …

Palace and Jihād in the Early ʽAlawī State in Morocco
The early ʽAlawī state has repeatedly been described as heavy and efficient military government. In practice it functioned as a relatively loosely-knit tribute state. The achievement of its notable and long-lived second sultan Ismāʽil (1672–1727) was to shed the aegis of Fez, his economic metropolis, and set up an increasingly gigantic palace, beside a market town, as an independent political base. His central government there was characterized b…
Melanesians in North Queensland
the interlude of the Pacific Island migration to Queensland should not be overlooked. Social aspects of the presence of the Melanesians in colonial and contemporary Queensland2 had been largely neglected in a concentration on the politico-economic history of this subject, until the formative post graduate research of Peter Corris into the socio-cultural experiences of the Pacific Island migrants.3 Both written sources and fieldwork in Queensland …
Shilluk Trade and Politics from the mid–seventeenth century to 1861
From the mid-seventeenth century until 1861, the Shilluk, notoriously successful raiders, dominated the White Nile. Their population was largely concentrated in the riverain strip which is Shilluk-land today, yet they had undisputed control of the river down to Eleis, and raided as far north as the confluence with the Blue Nile. This ascendancy was based upon the canoe: the characteristic Shilluk tactic was the surprise mass canoe-raid upon herds…
