General Introduction. The studies presented in this thesis stem from an interest in Roma’s fate which entails a challenge of immense practical importance. Negative attitudes towards the Roma have been a common denominator of widespread rejection, exclusion and outright hostility that marked the eight-century-long Roma history in Europe (Crowe, 2008). In recent years, an increasing ethnic mobility within the European Union enabled the Roma to travel from one country to another to escape discrimination and search for a better life (European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights, 2009). Most of Roma, however, remain excluded from the mainstream population, and face continued poverty and discrimination (Kostadinova, 2011). The goal of this dissertation is to provide an insight into social-psychological mechanisms that underlie this appalling situation of European Roma. We refer to negative attitudes towards the Roma as Romaphobia1. Like other type of outgroup attitudes, Xxxxxxxxxx reflects negative emotions associated with group membership,

General Introduction. Hemophilia Hemophilia is a hereditary clotting disorder which is caused by a deficiency of factor VIII (hemophilia A) or IX (hemophilia B). In the Netherlands the prevalence is around 10 per 100,000, resulting in about 1600 patients1. The severity of the disease is determined by the residual clotting factor activity. Patients with mild hemophilia (>0.05-0.40 IU/ml) show little spontaneous bleeding and bleed excessively only after major trauma; patients with moderate hemophilia (0.01-0.05 IU/ml) may show excessive hemorrhages after minor trauma, while severe hemophilia (<0.01 IU/ml) is characterized by major bleeding occurring spontaneously or after minor trauma. Frequent bleeding in joints results into damage of the synovial tissue and arthropathy. Hemophilia is a genetic recessive X-linked trait and therefore patients are mostly men. Female family members can be carriers of the disorder, which is characterized by a 25% chance of having a son with hemophilia, and a decreased clotting factor activity level.

General Introduction. The principal aim of this book is to study three important construction rituals of the Hindu tradition: the laying of the first stones, the placing of the consecration deposit and the placing of the crowning bricks. These rituals are described in numerous Sanskrit texts on architecture and religion, which date from ca. 7th to 16th centuries AD.1 It is therefore hardly surprising that the present study is based mainly on textual sources. The chief source is the Kâśyapaśilpa, a South Indian treatise on art and architecture and ritual, written in Sanskrit, usually dated 11th – 12th century AD. Three chapters from the Kâśyapaśilpa, which deal with the three construction rituals mentioned above, have been critically edited, translated and provided with a commentary (see Chapter 4). For this purpose, unpublished manuscripts of the Kâśyapaśilpa were collected in various Southern Indian libraries. In order to place the three chapters of the Kâśyapaśilpa in a broader context, the descriptions of the construction rituals given by cognate texts, some of them still unpublished, have also been studied (see Chapter 5). The construction rites play an important role in Sanskrit texts on ritual and architecture. Nevertheless, this topic has thus far largely been neglected by scholars. This is particularly striking in view of the numerous publications, which have appeared on the outer appearance of temples, the technical aspects of temple building and temple worship. With the exception of Xxxxxxxxx (1946), whose interpretations should be treated with caution (see, for example, Chapter 6 note 12), there has never been an attempt to study the construction rituals as a whole and to explain their function and meaning. For those who want to arrive at an understanding of the construction rituals, textual sources alone are not sufficient. The texts are mainly technical treatises, which provide only a very limited interpretation for the actions they describe. Moreover, for the questions about the relation between the textual data and practice the answer has to be sought outside the textual sources. Have rituals, such as those described by the Kâśyapaśilpa and the related works, ever been performed? And if so, were the rituals performed according to the textual prescriptions?
