The Design of Virtual Environments with particular reference to VRML
The uses of spatiality
Mnemonic uses of space
There is a historical use of space previously known only to a small group of specialist scholars but more recently influencing a number of designers of information media. This is the Art of Memory, a spatial mnemonic system. Yates classic book on the subject (1966) provides a fascinating in-depth account, but we can summarise the main points of interest here. The assumption of the Art of Memory is that we are predisposed to remember things in the context of place, even where there is no significant connection between the thing remembered and the place where it is located, so that recalling the space is a powerful trigger to the recall of the associated information. According to Cicero's De Oratore, the poet Simonides invented the Art when called upon to name the unrecognisable victims of a physical disaster the demolition of a building full of dignitaries from which Simonides himself escaped through the intervention of the gods. He was able to name the victims by recalling where they had been seated. Such spatial mnemonic techniques were used subsequently during the Middle Ages (it has been argued by Yates and others that the Cathedrals were organised as aids to remembering the scriptures) and later, in the Renaissance, by such as Giulio Camillo (1480-1544), Ramon Lull (1235-1316, his works revived in the 15th Century), Giordano Bruno (1548-1592?), Peter Ramus (1515-1572) and Robert Fludd.

  • Thomas Fuller first related the legend that Sir Walter Ralegh used a diamond to etch the words, "Fain would I climb, yet fear I to fall," on a window pane at Court where Elizabeth I could not fail to see them. As the story goes, the Queen answered Ralegh in rhyme with the corrective "If thy heart fails thee, climb not at all" (Fuller 261). More than a telling vignette of the insecurities of Court life, the narrative of this verse exchange serves to foreground the dialogic nature of poetic practice in the Renaissance. Because dialogue is in some sense circumscribed by the immediacy with which an exchange can occur, it should not be surprising that the flowering of dialogic verse occurred within a manuscript culture. But manuscript transmission alone does not account for the variety of practices evinced by early modern manuscripts. The forms of their communicative acts were determined by Renaissance emphases on rhetoric and dialectic. However ritualized the practice may appear, and however stylized, poetry served a primarily communicative function. Wilber Samuel Howell insists that "Englishmen of these two centuries did not waste their time in the vain effort to deny poetry a primarily communicative function"; it was "considered to be the third great form of communication, open and popular but not fully explained by rhetoric, concise and lean but not fully explained by logic," instead containing "both characteristics at once" (Howell 4).

    Giulio Camillo e il Teatro della Memoria
    Giulio Camillo, or Giulio Camillo Delminio to give him his full name,was one of the most famous men of the sixteenth century.
    He was one of those people whom their contemporaries regard with awe has having vast personalities.
    His Theatre was talked of in all Italy and France;its mysterious fame seemed to grow with the years.
    Frances A. Yates
    The Art of Memory

    This picture is just the web formed by sites that have information about Camillo. So to speak, a representation of the modern Memory Theatre .
    From this modern Memory Theatre I have selected the following materials about Camillo .At the end you find a small FAQ about:
    The secret of Camillo's Theatre revealed
    This article by Peter Matussek The Renaissance of the Theater of Memory is a good introduction to our subject . See for example what has to say about Camillo and the Web: Now, it is in the nature of the dream of a total encyclopaedia that it must remain a dream. In this respect, it is worth noting that Camillo's Idea del Theatro was formulated in the future tense - as if the actual theatre of memory was still to be built. Unfinishability is here no shortcoming, but rather an added value; it does not diminish, but rather intensifies the mystery. The World Wide Web also owes its aura as a pan-mnemistic docuverse to the sfumato of a diffuse presentation of data, whose incompleteness stimulates us to act on hunches and intuitions, and thus produces that feeling of exuberant spatial experience with which passionate web-surfers are filled. The necessarily limited frame of the monitor only augments this experience by its peephole effect; it feeds the voyeuristic fantasy that there is still something infinitely more thrilling to discover than what is actually before one's eyes.

    The Catholic Historical Review

    [Access article in PDF] This slim but important study begins with the statement: "Peter Ramus was a difficult man." The author proceeds to demonstrate the point thoroughly. By the time the reader has finished, it is easy to appreciate why a colleague in the University of Paris denounced him as "either rabid and demented or else perverse and criminal" (p. 1). Skalnik has well integrated the biographical details of Ramus's life into the account of his beliefs and goals, thereby making the analysis of his motivations and those of his many critics plausible and convincing. Skalnik insists that Ramus had an ideology of reform, not so much of religion, as Ramus came to...

    Peter Uetz (2000)
    How Many Reptile Species?
    species stat and the diversity To overcome such shortcomings we started an online database of reptile species about 3 years ago (Uetz and Etzold 1996). This list currently contains 7,870 extant reptile species and provides not only synonymies and distribution data, but also attempts to give references for every single species. The database has been assembled mainly from published monographs and checklists and from submissions by individual contributors. Currently, it contains original references for about 60% of the known reptile species and provides links to photographs of more than 1000 species on the World Wide Web. Eventually the database should serve as a guide to descriptions and keys in the literature or even contain them as online information. Together with the recently established amphibian species checklist ( http://www.mabnetamericas.org /; see also http://research.amnh.org/herpetology/amphibia/index.html ), our database completes the lists of more than 50,000 vertebrate species names that are available online now. The majority of reptile species are the lizards (4,470 species) and snakes (2,920), whereas the turtles (295), crocodiles (23) and tuataras (2) represent only 4.1% of all living reptiles. 51% of known reptiles species belong to one of only 3 families: the colubrid snakes (about 1,850 species), the skinks (1,200) and the geckoes (1,000). Fig. 1 summarizes the assignment of extant reptile species to their families. Furthermore, we assembled a preliminary world reptile diversity map that illustrates species richness in different geographic areas of the world (Fig. 2). The database is easily queried for individual countries or subordinate areas, although incomplete data yield more erroneous results for national and subnational regions like states or provinces.

    Abstract
    This paper discusses the importance of Samuel Daniel's "Delia" through its structure and the creation of the modern sonnet. The author explores Daniel's influences including Sir Philip Sidney and Shakespeare, and his use of the Petrarchan writing mechanisms. Further this paper examines the significance of the sonnet to the English Renaissance and European poetry. From the paper: "Samuel Daniel's Delia presents to the modern reader a nearly perfect mechanism through which to contemplate the structure of the sonnet in English as it first came to be incorporated into the common practice of this language. His use of Petrarchan forms and metrical traditions demonstrates that the sonnet when it first entered into wide use in the Renaissance was indeed a direct carry-over from the Italian, a mimicking by English writers of the Italianate structure of neoclassicism, a harkening back to Rome and so to Athens."

    Paradigm , No. 3 (July, 1990) What is a Textbook? David Hamilton School of Education,
    University of Liverpool My purpose, today, is to give some time to a question that, presumably, most of us have thought about (e.g. Michael, 1990). In my case, the question 'What is a textbook?' arose as an adjunct or footnote to my work on schooling (see Hamilton, 1989, p. 51, note 46). Conceptually, I did not find it difficult to identify textbooks, like curricula, with the organization and conduct of schooling. But, as many educationists have discovered, it is much easier to locate a phenomenon in logical space that it is to locate it in historical space. In other words, could I find any evidence for my supposition? When, for instance, did the textbook appear? Perhaps the fundamental conceptual problem is to find a way of distinguishing textbooks from schoolbooks. Not surprisingly, my own stance is that textbooks visibly reflect pedagogic considerations. That is, a textbook is not just a book used in schools. Rather, it is a book that has been consciously designed and organized to serve the ends of schooling. To this extent, then, textbooks are organically linked to the changing circumstances of schooling. Indeed, it should be possible to 'read off' forms of schooling from the textbooks that accompany then.

    Contents
    Index Previous Next A Brief History of Rhetoric and Composition Classical Rhetoric: Stages of Composing, Functions of Discourse The formal study of rhetoric in the West began in Greece in the fifth century B.C.E. with the Sophists [ ], followed by Isocrates [ ], Plato [ ], and Aristotle [ ]. The main line of Greek rhetoric was extended by Roman rhetoricians, notably Cicero [ ] and Quintilian [ Scholars traditionally regarded classical rhetoric as a system with the built-in assumption that one first finds knowledge and then puts it into words. In our own day, in the context of a renewed interest in the Sophists, this view has been challenged by a number of historians of rhetoric, who argue that knowledge is actually created by words (see Jarratt [ ] and Swearingen [ Scholars have also emphasized classical rhetoric's sorting of discourse forms according to social function. Many classical rhetorics divide oratory into three categories. Deliberative speeches, primarily devoted to political purposes, aim to persuade hearers to choose or avoid some future course of action. Forensic speeches, used primarily in legal situations, aim to accuse or defend someone involved in a disputed past action. Epideictic speeches, produced in classical times on ceremonial occasions, aim to help hearers see some present event or person as worthy of praise or blame. Epideictic orations may make more use than others of literary ornaments and vocal pyrotechnics. Although these classical categories for oral discourse have been reshaped by later rhetoricians, the premise that discourse can be classified according to social function has been persistently influential. In eighteenth-century American colleges, for example, discourse was classified according to its use by clergymen, lawyers, or politicians. Contemporary composition scholars have redirected the interest in social function to analyses of the ways in which audience or social context affects the interpretation of written text.

    J. David Hoeveler. Creating the American Mind: Intellect and Politics in the Colonial Colleges Historian J. David Hoeveler undertook a daunting task in Creating the American Mind , where he examines the intellectual, theological, and political forces exerted upon, as well as by, nine colonial colleges and the individuals who gave them particular institutional personalities. A significant part of this project was his use of intellectual biographies of certain influential colonials, who helped create and who attended, administrated, or taught at the nine colonial colleges. Hoeveler ably illustrated how these men, through their intellectual productions and involvement with the colleges, helped shape the colonial sociocultural landscape or, as the title indicates, the American "mind."
