It explores the insights gleaned from the Art Institute of Chicago’s own attempts at experimental or reconstructive archaeology of a late sixteenth-century breastplate produced with bloomery steel. Experiments affirmed the theory that bloomery furnace production methods and limitations played a role in the gradual development of plate armor.","PeriodicalId":53917,"journal":{"name":"West 86th-A Journal of Decorative Arts Design History and Material Culture","volume":"28 1","pages":"332 - 338"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41881749","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Its most puzzling and “un-economic” aspect is a ubiquitous long-term practice in which communities deliberately destroyed part of the valuable, scarce, and potentially recyclable metalwork. We argue that archaeological evidence shows that this happened in a systematic and selective way. This implies that it was an integral element of the economic system. Value was created by destroying valuables. We argue that this is not unique, but just one specific case of how economies, including modern ones, operate.","PeriodicalId":53917,"journal":{"name":"West 86th-A Journal of Decorative Arts Design History and Material Culture","volume":"28 1","pages":"253 - 258"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44974796","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Agriculture-related archaeological evidence is far scanter and less representative than the evidence now available on such aspects of early Chinese culture as social organization and ritual. Even so, a general trend toward the increased use of metal implements seems to be incontrovertible, especially after the switch from bronze to iron in the middle of the first millennium BCE.","PeriodicalId":53917,"journal":{"name":"West 86th-A Journal of Decorative Arts Design History and Material Culture","volume":"28 1","pages":"344 - 350"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48477822","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Other Worlds: Utopias in the Art of Late Ancient Eurasia 其他世界：古代欧亚大陆晚期艺术中的乌托邦

{"title":"Other Worlds: Utopias in the Art of Late Ancient Eurasia","authors":"J. Elsner","doi":"10.1086/718015","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1086/718015","url":null,"abstract":"This article examines a profound contradiction inherent in the idea of utopia as conceptually formulated by Thomas More in the Renaissance and clearly implicit in pre-humanist utopian, Arcadian, or paradisal imagery and descriptions, reaching back via early Christianity to Greco-Roman antiquity and resonating equally within Asian Buddhism. The idea of utopia from Greek antiquity to ancient India has evoked an optimism not unconnected to the conviction that there is a better place to which we will go after death, such as heaven. This kind of faith can have no rational basis, but the human condition is susceptible to a good deal more than the mere constraints of reason. Arguably, the only philosophically viable utopia is apophatic—that is, a place or state undescribable by any of the concepts or discourses used to define real spaces. Despite clear awareness across Eurasian cultures of the irrationality of a positive utopia (as we still continue to understand the word), their visual productions proceeded to give full vent to this optimism. This article examines a comparative range of such visual approaches across ancient Eurasia.","PeriodicalId":53917,"journal":{"name":"West 86th-A Journal of Decorative Arts Design History and Material Culture","volume":"28 1","pages":"19 - 42"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44536605","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
