The Archaeology of Ancient Japanese Gardens
This article summarizes the results of archaeological research on some 20 Japanese garden sites dating from the fourth to twelfth centuries a.d., emphasizing the site plan, remains of structures, stone groupings, and ponds. Associated plant remains from five sites are tabulated and briefly discussed. I introduce some early Chinese and Korean antecedents and provide historical context. Gardens with rectangular ponds were introduced from the contin…
William Morris, News from Nowhere , and the Hammersmith Bridge
This article discusses a central symbol in William Morris’ News from Nowhere (1890): that of the ‘bridge’. I argue that Morris’ use of the Hammersmith Suspension Bridge as a ‘gateway’ to his imagined journey up the river Thames to Lechlade was stimulated by the alterations and rebuilding work carried out on the bridge in the 1880s. The article traces the debates and developments surrounding the bridge during the period when Morris had moved into …
Technology Roadmapping for mission-led agile hardware development
Despite several decades of dedicated R&D, fusion, a potentially world-changing energy source, remains decades away from commercialisation. The majority of development thus far has been via publicly-funded programmes led by government laboratories focused on scientific research and in which commercialisation strategy and innovation play a minor role. Generally, such programmes follow a linear model of innovation in which commercial aspects are not…

Victorian Writers and the Stage
This book examines the dramatic work of Dickens, Browning, Collins, and Tennyson, their interaction with the theatrical world, and their attempts to develop their reputations as playwrights. These maj
Victorian Writers and the Stage
Text and Performance
Browning’s conception of stage authorship is founded on a historically inscribed notion that poetry and theatre can sustain the same text. Browning’s experience of reading and watching the playwrights of the classical canon (the Shakespeares and Jonsons) at Drury Lane and Covent Garden, and reading Greek and Roman dramatists, led him and many of his higher-brow contemporaries to imagine a synthesis of text and performance that would add status to…

Different and Better?' Scottish Joint-Stock Companies and the Law, c. 1720-1845
This paper examines the legal status of joint-stock companies in Scotland in the period between the ‘Bubble Act’ of 1720 and the reforms of company law in Britain in the mid-1840s. Historians have generally contended that Scots company law was ‘different and better’ than English law. In this paper, however, we question the assumption that the legal personality of the unincorporated company in Scotland gave it a significant advantage vis-à-vis its…
Debating Jomon Social Complexity
People of the Jomon period (currently dated from about 14,000 b.c. to the first millennium b.c.) began to make lacquer ornaments as early as 7000 b.c. and by the fourth millennium b.c. were creating elaborately decorated, low-fired pottery vessels that appear to have been used for feasting. In the Final period of the Jomon, grave goods appear in a substantial percentage of burials. Without reliance on agriculture, Jomon people appear to have achi…
Jomon hot spot
The earliest postulated sedentary villages in Japan have been found in southern Kagoshima Prefecture, Kyushu Island. The Incipient Jomon period site of Sojiyama, dated to around 13,500 bp is thought to be a wintering site, while Kakoinohara, of similar date, is thought to have been occupied throughout the summer. The Earliest Jomon period site of Kakuriyama, Kaseda City dated to around 9800 cal. bp, is thought to have been occupied throughout the…
The social context of early pottery in the Lingnan region of south China
Late Pleistocene and early post-Pleistocene communities in East Asia experimented with pottery production and the domestication of plants and animals. What was the nature of the social organisation of these early small-scale societies? Some North American writers consider pottery making to be a 'prestige technology' sponsored by aggrandising individuals. However, examples from south of the Nanling Mountains and other areas have simple tool assemb…

Shareholder Democracies? English Stock Companies and the Politics of Corporate Governance during the Industrial Revolution
Much remains unknown about the political dimensions of business during the classic period of the British industrial revolution, c.1770‐1850. This article focuses upon one aspect of those politics, namely the internal relations between company directors, managers and shareholders. Its object is to search for ‘shareholder democracy’ in action, through a study of the governance of stock companies in the insurance industry, based upon the surviving r…

Ceramic Ecology of the Ayacucho Basin, Peru
The paper examines some of the interrelationships of environment and ceramic specialization in the area around the village of Quinua, Department of Ayacucho,Peru. The study reveals that agricultural land dependent on rainfall provides a significant limiting factor in the development of full-time ceramic specialization. Furthermore, the complex series of Quinua ceramic styles depends upon a diverse set of ceramic resources which are mined nearby i…
An Evolutionary Approach to the Southeast Asian Cultural Sequence [and Comments and Reply]
Recent archaelogical work has directed attention toward Southeast Asia. However, while the substantive results of this research are significant for tracing worldwide prehistoric developments, the integration of these findings into a regional archaeological framework continues to be a problem. Most traditional chronological-developmental frameworks of Southeast Asian prehistory were patterned after the European paradigm of five prehistoric ages. I…

The Prehistory of Oceania [and Comments and Reply]
The prehistory of Oceania is best approached through the cooperation of a number of disciplines, including archaeology, physical anthropology, linguistics, ethnology, and ethnobotany, to name perhaps the major five. As a result of intensified cooperation over the past decade, it is now possible to write a prehistory of Oceania with which other scholars might agree at least in general terms. This paper is such an attempt, and refers particularly t…

The Chinese Neolithic
Early food production, featuring at least two and probably three separate suites of plants, occurred in at least six different regions in China. Gradually, the earliest stages of village life and plant-animal domestication are becoming clearer, and Chinese archeologists are attempting to reconstruct the societal context of these developments. Late Neolithic sites, shedding light on the indigenous evolution to state-level societies, are now being …

Continuity and Local Evolution in the Neolithic of South China
The Neolithic of South China (and of the Far East generally) has traditionally been reconstructed on nuclear-diffusionist models; chronologies and local culture sequences in South China have been related to the rise of agriculture and Neolithic technology in North China, and their subsequent spread into the South, often seen to have resulted from a movement of peoples out of the "nuclear area." Recent data now suggest a generally contemporaneous …

The social aims of Chinese archaeology
From its early stages, on 16 March 1967, the Department of State Affairs and the Central Army decreed the protection of cultural objects and books, and during the summer, 1971, a large exhibition in Peking featured an immense range of archaeological materials, all uncovered in the past few years (Kung, 1972). Archaeology may be studied as one of the best-documented humanities in contemporary China
