- They may be looked upon as forms, ideas, or archetypes; or they may be looked upon as bonds of union, or nexus (nexusses), by which the attributes are held together.
- 1985, Abstracts and Program Statements for Art History Sessions, page 29:
- Progress already made in understanding the nature and extent of iconic intention in Palaeolithic art -- i.e. the relative absence of fictive spatial/temporal nexusses of significant extent and hence of most narrativity in the usual sense; the relationship between figuration and its material substrate, etc. -- offers pointers for work in this direction.
- 2007, Wolfram Elsner, editor, Arms, War, and Terrorism in the Global Economy Today: Economic Analyses and Civilian Alternatives, →ISBN, page 2:
- While there is ample analysis of globalisation, conflict, intervention, the new wars, and a new imperialism and ‘empire’ in economic books now, specific analyses of the nexusses between / • economic theory / • and conflict, war, and terrorism, / • military spending, arms production and financial markets, / • macro- and sectoral economic implications of military spending and arms production, / as well as on civilian alternatives from an ‘economically enlightened’ perspective seem still to be lacking.
