Historical study isn’t something that everyone immediately associates with modern technology. Karawansary wants to help change that – history doesn’t always have to be printed on paper. We recognize the power of the web for conveying ideas, whether as a blog post or a podcast. And because we view dialogue and debate as critical to a full understanding of history, forums and social-networking sites like Facebook play a key role in our work.
Geophysical Monitoring for Geologic Carbon Storage
Storing carbon dioxide in underground geological formations is emerging as a promising technology to reduce carbon dioxide emissions in the atmosphere. A range of geophysical techniques can be deployed to remotely track carbon dioxide plumes and monitor changes in the subsurface, which is critical for ensuring for safe, long-term storage.
Geophysical Monitoring for Geologic Carbon Storage provides a comprehensive review of different geophysical techniques currently in use and being developed, assessing their advantages and limitations.

Comprehensive examination of how Indigenous peoples have been represented in Argentine film.
Affectual Erasure examines how Argentine cinema has represented Indigenous peoples throughout a period spanning roughly a century. Cynthia Margarita Tompkins interrelates her discussion of films with the ethnographic context of the Indigenous peoples represented and an analysis of the affective dimensions at play. These emotions underscore the inherent violence of generic conventions, as well as the continued political violence preventing Indigenous peoples from access to their ancestral lands and cultural mores. Tompkins explores a broad range of movies beginning in the silent period and includes both feature films and documentaries, underscored by archival and contemporary film stills. She traces the initial erotic projection, moving through melodrama to the conventions of the Western, into the 1960s focus on decolonization, superseded by allegorical renditions and the promise of self-expression in late twentieth-century documentaries. Each section includes an introduction to the sociohistorical events of the period and their impact on film production. Analyzed chronologically, the films evidence different stages in the projection of the hegemonic Argentine imaginary, which fails to envision the daily life of Indigenous peoples prior to conquest or in colonial times―and remains in denial of their existence in the present.
In the nineteenth century, American tourists, scholars, evangelists, writers, and artists flocked to Palestine as part of a “Holy Land mania.” Many saw America as a New Israel, a modern nation chosen to do God’s work on Earth, and produced a rich variety of inspirational art and literature about their travels in the original promised land, which was then part of Ottoman-controlled Palestine. In American Palestine, Hilton Obenzinger explores two “infidel texts” in this tradition: Herman Melville’s Clarel: A Poem and Pilgrimage to the Holy Land (1876) and Mark Twain’s The Innocents Abroad: or, The New Pilgrims’ Progress (1869). As he shows, these works undermined in very different ways conventional assumptions about America’s divine mission.
