otheruses2 HumanitasHumanitas is an interdisciplinary academic journal journal published by the National Humanities Institute . It is known for its affiliation with traditionalist conservatism . The journal seeks to foster among its readers and contributors a spirit of open inquiry, a willingness to subject cherished doctrines to challenge and look beyond conventional categories of thought. Humanitas explores issues of moral and social philosophy, epistemology, and aesthetics, and the relations among them, such as the moral and cultural conditions of knowledge. Favorable to an historical understanding of life, Humanitas explores the simultaneous tension and union between universality and particularity, and the interdependence and opposition of creativity and tradition. Fruitful new thinking will resist reductionism and will, for example, distinguish between contrasting strains within modernity and postmodernity. Its editor in chief editors are Joseph Baldacchino and Claes G. Ryn .

Prize crew is a term used to indicate a number of crew members of a ship chosen to take over the operations of a captured ship. In the early days of sailing and up into the American Civil War , capturing enemy ships was quite common. As a result, warships optimistically carried extra crew members for use as prize crews . Prize crews were required to take their prize to appropriate prize court s, which would determine whether the prize crew had sufficient cause to have the title of the prize awarded to them. Today, as evidenced by results of sea battles during World War I and World War II , ships generally were sunk, not captured. Therefore, prize crews were no longer an integral part of a ship s complement. If, however, a ship was captured, a prize crew would be selected from the winning ship s complement. Examples See USS Nightingale 1851 for prize crew and prize court example. in 1939, the SS City of Flint 1919 SS City of Flint was captured by a German warship in the Atlantic and sailed to Norway. As Norway was neutral, the German prize crew were eventually interned and the vessel returned to her American owners. In 1941, a Royal Navy prize crew sailed the captured, German, U boat U 570 from Iceland to the United Kingdom. At the end of World War II, USS Bangust DE 739 Bangust DE 739 selected a prize crew to board Japanese submarine I 14 . USS Hanna DE 449 Hanna DE 449 placed a prize crew on the Japanese Tachibana Maru at the end of World War II . U.S. Coast Guard cutters capture vessels during drug interdiction operations, and then bring them to port using prize crews.
