Intermedialitāte P. Handkes darbos
2018
Intermedialitāte – mākslu mijiedarbība, kas pieprasa estētisko izpratni un pamatojumu. Daudzi 20. gs. autori atsaucās uz pagātnes māksliniekiem un mākslas darbiem, kuri kļūst par iedvesmas avotu un turpmāk par estētiskām pozīcijām. Īpaši lielu iespaidu un ietekmi uz rakstniekiem 20. gs. literatūrā atstāj franču gleznotājs, klasiskā modernisma tēvs Pols Sezans. Viens no iedvesmotajiem rakstniekiem ir austriešu rakstnieks un dramaturgs Pēteris Handke. Šī darba mērķis ir izpētīt intermedialitāti, t. i. vārda un attēla attiecības, izskatīt, aprakstīt literārās mākslas un glezniecības saiknes problemātiku P. Handkes darbos. Analīze tiek veikta, izmanto…
POLYPHENOL OXIDASE ACTIVITY FROM THREE SICILIAN ARTICHOKE (CYNARA CARDUNCULUS L. VAR. SCOLYMUS L. (FIORI)) CULTIVARS: STUDIES AND TECHNOLOGICAL APPLI…
2010
Several papers helped with the development of more methods to control browning, or study thermal polyphenol oxidase (PPO) inactivation, but did not provide any solutions to technological process problems and food process improvement. Artichokes [ Cynara cardunculus L. var. scolymus L. (Fiori)] are susceptible to browning; this alteration could affect and reduce the suitability for its use, fresh or processed. Within this study, the catecholase and cresolase activities of PPO from three different Sicilian artichokes cultivar were characterized with regard to substrate specificity and enzyme kinetics, optimum pH and temperature, temperature and pH stability, and inhibitor test; all of the res…
Relationship between static posturography and gait analysis with the dizziness handicap inventory in vestibular patients
2012
[EN] Objective: The posturography evaluates postural control abnormalities in patients with vestibular disorders. On the other hand, the Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI) questionnaire quantifies the impact of these diseases on the patient’s daily life. This paper has aimed to know the relationship between posturography test results and the DHI scores. Material and Methods: A total of 29 subjects with vestibular diseases underwent a static posturography and gait analysis. The system used was NedSVE/IBV. The patients also answered DHI questions. Results: We found a statistically significant positive correlation between static posturography outcomes and physical-functional DHI scores. A stat…
Fitness testing in tennis: Influence of anthropometric characteristics, physical performance, and functional test on serve velocity in professional p…
2021
The aims of this study were to examine the relationship between anthropometric variables, physical performance, and functional test with serve velocity regarding tennis players’ level and to design regression models that effectively predict serve velocity. A sample of sixteen male tennis players participated in this study (national level = 8, professional level = 7). Anthropometric measurements (body mass, height, body mass index and body segments) and physical test (hand strength, countermovement jump, jump on serve, and serve velocity) and functional test (medicine ball throw overhead and shot put) were performed. No differences in anthropometrics and physical test were found between nati…
Effects of prenatal acute stress on the behavioural reactivity in handled and non-handled rat progeny
2003
The effects of prenatal stress are dependent on the intensity and duration of the stress treatment: chronic, uncontrollable stress causes an impairment in the normal adaptive responses to physical and physiological stimuli whereas acute and mild stress facilitates the morphological development of fetal brain neurons. The presents study was designed to investigate whether a single stress exposure during pregnancy may exert a facilitatory effect on the behaviour of the juvenile progeny. The effects of a postnatal handling procedure have been also investigated. One-month prenatally stressed rats (PSR) whose dams had been restrained for 120 minutes at the 16th day of gestation, showed an increa…
Thermal and non-thermal preservation techniques of tiger nuts' beverage "horchata de chufa". Implications for food safety, nutritional and quality pr…
2017
"Horchata de chufa" is a traditional Spanish beverage produced from tiger nuts (Cyperus esculentus L.). Due to its richness in nutritional compounds, it is highly perishable and its conservation by pasteurization and/or adding preservatives is required. Although efficient, conventional thermal treatment for pasteurization induces changes in the nutritional and sensory properties. Replacing conventional pasteurization by non-thermal technologies such as pulsed electric fields, ultraviolet, and high pressure, combined with moderate temperatures (<40°C) allows a reduction of energy consumption, along with the preservation of the most thermo-sensitive molecules. Accordingly, this review deals w…

Body, Nature, Language: Artisans to Artists in the Commodification of Authenticity
1969
This article examines processes of authenticating and selling handicrafts at the conjuncture of cultural pride and economic profit in two peripheral sites (Finnish Sámiland and rural Québec), under shared conditions of late capitalism and globalising political economies. These conditions (re)structure traditionalist and modernist discourses about artisans' historical bodies, their connections to the local land (nature), and how they interactionally authenticate and sell their products through language. Under these conditions, the commodification of authenticity pushes artisans and handicrafts beyond being emblems of national belonging and collective tradition, and toward individualised, art…

Abstract Peer review is not only a quality screening mechanism for scholarly journals. It also connects authors and referees either directly or indirectly. This means that their positions in the network structure of the community could influence the process, while peer review could in turn influence subsequent networking and collaboration. This paper aims to map these complex network implications by looking at 2232 author/referee couples in an interdisciplinary journal that uses double blind peer review. By reconstructing temporal co-authorship networks, we found that referees tended to recommend more positively submissions by authors who were within three steps in their collaboration netwo…
