Signs of local adaptation by genetic selection and isolation promoted by extreme temperature and salinity in the Mediterranean seagrass Posidonia oce…
2023
Adaptation to local conditions is known to occur in seagrasses; however, knowledge of the genetic basis underlying this phenomenon remains scarce. Here, we analysed Posidonia oceanica from six sites within and around the Stagnone di Marsala, a semi-enclosed coastal lagoon where salinity and temperature exceed the generally described tolerance thresholds of the species. Sea surface temperatures (SSTs) were measured and plant samples were collected for the assessment of morphology, flowering rate and for screening genome-wide polymorphisms using double digest restriction-site-associated DNA sequencing. Results demonstrated more extreme SSTs and salinity levels inside the lagoon than the outer…
Meine freie deutsche Jugend und Lagerfeuer: zwei grundverschiedene Erzähltexte über die DDR
2021
The article compares "Meine freie deutsche Jugend", 2003, of Claudia Rusch and "Lagerfeuer", 2003 of Julia Franck. These two texts are partly autobiographical and tell about the life of many young people in East Germany (DDR). The two authors write of traumatic experiences related to the political situation in the DDR which are still alive even today in united Germany in the memory of many Germans.
Eher Trauma als erfüllter Traum: Flüchtlinge aus der DDR in Julia Francks Roman „Lagerfeuer“ (2012) und in Christian Schwochows Film „Westen“ (2013)
2020
This paper aims to investigate the descriptions of traumatic life experiences of refugees from the DDR in literature and film. This essay examines the novel Lagerfeuer (2003) of Julia Franck and the film version Westen (2013) directed by Christian Schwochow. The two East Germans artists show the existential traumas of those people who had to leave their homes from different perspectives and in different artistic genres.
