Paaudžu problēmas Gētes jaunā Vērtera ciešanās un Plencdorfa Jaunā Vērtera jaunās ciešanas
2018
Maģistra darba tēma ir paaudžu problēmas Johana Volfganga fon Gētes romānā ''Jaunā Vertera ciešanas'' un Ulriha Plencdorfa ''Jaunā V. jaunās ciešanas'', pamatojoties uz šo divu darbu salīdzinājumu. Maģistra darba pirmajā daļā ir apskatītas Gētes un Plencdorfa biogrāfijas, lai saprastu, kas stāv aiz šiem bestselleriem. Tālāk abi autori tiek izskatīti kā viņu laika pārstāvji, proti, Gēte kā 18. gadsimta pārstāvis un Plencdorfs kā 20. gadsimta pārstāvis. Analizējot šo tēmu, atklājas, ka abas grāmatas bija ļoti populāras lasītāju vidū, taču valdības un tās pārstāvju viedoklis nebija pozitīvs. Darba otrajā daļā ir apskatīti vēsturiski notikumi Gētes dzīves laikā un pirms grāmatas sastādīšanas, t…
Pecat amagat és mitg perdonat.... La polèmica entre mossèn Gudiol i Antoni Bulbena a ran de les edicions bibliòfiles de llibres eròtics
2014
Resum: El desembre de 1911 aparegué a la premsa local de Vic un article que va aixecar molta polseguera entre els bibliòfils de tot Catalunya. Un mossèn –historiador de l’art i gran moralista- acusava un conegut editor de llibres de bibliofília –sense dir-ne el nom-, d’editar llibres luxosos de contingut priàpic (pornogràfic). Aquest fet anecdòtic ens serveix per saber qui era l’editor esmentat, què hi havia de cert en l’»acusació» i com va encaixar el vituperat veure’s exposat a la vergonya pública. La correspondència creuada entre els dos protagonistes, exclusivament per mitjà d’un amic comú, ens facilita l’anàlisi de l’argumentari de l’un i de l’altre. Això ens permet copsar com s’enteni…
Materiality and compositorial errors of a poetical incunabulum: the contribution of textual criticism
2019
L’anàlisi material dels testimonis d’una obra literària forma part de la fase de recensio en un procés de crítica textual, que ha d’anar més enllà de la mera descripció del continent. Cal atendre a la informació que donen aquestes característiques quant als continguts, quant al procés de transmissió dels textos, perquè aquestes dades tindran funcionalitat ecdòtica. Així, aquest treball estudia la materialitat i els errors d’un incunable poètic valencià, que és el primer d’una trilogía d’impresos dedicats a la Immaculada Concepció i patrocinats per Ferran Dies. The material analysis of the witnesses of a literary work is part of the phase of recension in a process of textual criticism, which…
'No speech at my command will fit the forms in my mind': Shaping the Spiritual through Writing and Typing in George MacDonald’s Lilith Manuscripts
2020
International audience; In “Lilith B” (1893), the most extensively rewritten draft of George MacDonald’s fantasy novel Lilith (1895), puzzling triangular-shaped insertions, some handwritten and some typed, although not retained in the later versions of the text, allow for a better understanding of the creative process and show how the material crafting of the manuscript, through collage and combination techniques, played a part in the invention of fantasy. The introduction of the typewriter as a new drafting tool in MacDonald’s writing habits, not only for copying but also for revising, corresponds to a shift in the metaphorical and allegorical system which enables the parallel worlds of th…
Cognitive impairment and its relation with disease measures in mildly disabled patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis: baseline results…
2009
Background Cognitive impairment is a common symptom of multiple sclerosis (MS), but the association between cognitive impairment and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) disease measures in patients with relapsing–remitting (RR) MS is unclear. Objectives To study the prevalence of cognitive impairment and its relation with MRI disease measures in mildly disabled patients with RRMS. Methods Patients aged 18–50 years with RRMS (McDonald criteria) and an Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) score ≤4.0, who were enrolled in the Cognitive Impairment in Multiple Sclerosis (COGIMUS) study, underwent baseline standardized MRI complete neurological examination and neuropsychological testing. Results…
Effects of immunomodulatory treatment with subcutaneous interferon beta-1a on cognitive decline in mildly disabled patients with relapsing-remitting …
2010
The objective of this study was to assess the effects of subcutaneous (sc) interferon beta-1a (IFNβ-1a) on cognition in mildly disabled patients with relapsing—remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS). Patients aged 18—50 years with RRMS (McDonald criteria; Expanded Disability Status Scale score ≤4.0) were assigned IFNβ therapy at the physician’s discretion and underwent standardized magnetic resonance imaging, neurological examination and neuropsychological testing at the baseline and regular intervals for up to three years. This analysis included 459 patients who received sc IFNβ-1a (44 mcg: n = 236; 22 mcg: n = 223; three-year follow up was available for 318 patients). The hazard ratio for c…
Nanostructured CdO thin films for water treatments
2016
Abstract CdO was the very first transparent conducting metal oxide discovered. CdO thin films show electrical and optical properties of interest as photosensitive anode materials for photochemical cells, phototransistors, photodiodes, window electrodes in liquid crystal displays, IR detectors, antireflection coatings, gas sensors and in other solar energy applications. In the present study we report on the spectroscopic, microscopic, electrical and photo-catalytic properties of CdO thin films prepared by a metal organic chemical vapor method. The degenerate semiconducting CdO thin films are useful as photocatalysts for water treatments.
Self-assembled metal-oxide nanoparticles on GaAs: infrared absorption enabled by localized surface plasmons
2021
Abstract Metal-oxides hold promise as superior plasmonic materials in the mid-infrared compared to metals, although their integration over established material technologies still remains challenging. We demonstrate localized surface plasmons in self-assembled, hemispherical CdZnO metal-oxide nanoparticles on GaAs, as a route to enhance the absorption in mid-infrared photodetectors. In this system, two localized surface plasmon modes are identified at 5.3 and 2.7 μm, which yield an enhancement of the light intensity in the underlying GaAs. In the case of the long-wavelength mode the enhancement is as large as 100 near the interface, and persists at depths down to 50 nm. We show numerically t…

Perception, Normativity and Action in Contemporary Philosophy of Mind and Cognitive Science
Working on the background of a view of mind as “in action”, as pragmatically shaped by its own dynamic interactions with the world, emerging from the achievements of contemporary philosophy of mind (from Searle to enactivism)and cognitive science (from Gibson to Goodale and Milner)I aim to propose a view of perception as a form of human activity of which we are responsible, and in which our “commitment” to truth and rationality can take place. Against some recent phenomenalist and antirepresentationalist views of perception I'll try to show that the action-oriented character of perception does not challenge its rational constraint to a right representation of the state of affairs which it i…
