Reframing belonging : affective localism and the early fiction of Reino Rinne

2017

ABSTRACTThe early fiction of a novelist and journalist born in the north of Finland, Reino Rinne (1913–2002), is illustrative of the post-war interest in a redefinition of cultural belonging. The aim of this article is to offer a reading of Rinne’s works that throws light on the way they exemplify a post-war articulation of affective localism. What is especially characteristic of the affective localism produced in Rinne’s early fiction is the deployment of certain narrative elements, realism as an aesthetic regime, tropes of spatial belonging and historical myths that are endowed with affective charge. A comparison between Rinne's first novel Tunturit hymyilevat. Kuvaus Lapista 1900-luvun a…

The more you move, the more action you construct : a motion capture study on head and upper-torso movements in constructed action in Finnish Sign Lan…

2020

Abstract This paper investigates, with the help of motion capture data processed on corpus principles, the characteristics of head and upper-torso movements in constructed action and regular narration (i.e., signing without constructed action) in FinSL. Specifically, the paper evaluates the validity of two arguments concerning constructed action: that constructed action forms a continuum with regular narration, and that constructed action divides into three subtypes (i.e., overt, reduced, and subtle). The results presented in the paper support the first argument but not directly the second one. Because of the ambiguous position of reduced constructed action in between subtle and overt const…

Media-induced recovery: The effects of positive versus negative media stimuli on recovery experience, cognitive performance, and energetic arousal.

2017

Recent research has demonstrated that the use of hedonically positive interactive media content contributes to the satisfaction of recovery needs and is associated with recovery outcomes such as higher levels of cognitive performance and increased energetic arousal. The recovery effects of noninteractive media stimuli as well as of media content with negative affective valence, however, are less clear. The present investigation addressed this limitation of prior research on

The Karsikko and Cross-Tree Tradition of Finland The Origins, Change and End of the Custom

1993

According to an East -Finnish custom that came to an end around the beginning of the 20th century, the karsikko (conifer shorn of branches) and the cross-tree were prepared when the deceased was taken for burial. The Roman-Catholic Church and the Reformation introduced into folk beliefs the idea that the deceased did not journey all the way to the community of the dead. Restoring the social order of the community that had been disturbed by death then required that the dead be placed in the intermediary stage dictated by the tripartite division of the rite of passage in status. It was also necessary to establish a boundary between the living and the dead as a precaution against the undesired…

T-CELL-MEDIATED CYTOLYSIS : FROM THE LYSIS OF H-2 NEGATIVE TARGET CELLS TO THE INDUCTIVE EFFECT OF XENOGENEIC SERUM

1979

Publisher Summary This chapter describes the results of a series of experiments. In the first series, evidence was found in favor of some specificity of cytolysis against embryonic antigens at the surface of the F9 cells. In a second series of experiments, it was found that P815 and EL4 cells were lysed. From a systematic investigation of the parameters of this system, two facts emerged. F9 cells were not necessary during the in vitro boost incubation. There was some preferential lysis of targets having the same H-2 as the mice receiving the H-2-less F9. For instance, if F9 cells were injected into B1O mice, and after 2–3 weeks, the spleen cells were incubated for 5 days in conventional tis…

Cutting edge: priming of CTL by transcutaneous peptide immunization with imiquimod.

2005

Abstract CTL are important in combating cancer and viruses. Therefore, triggering the complete potential of CTL effector functions by new vaccination strategies will not only improve prophylaxis of tumor or virus-related diseases, but also open opportunities for effective therapeutic immunizations. Using transcutaneous immunization, we show that epicutaneous (e.c.)4 application of an ointment containing a CTL epitope and the TLR7 ligand imiquimod is highly effective in activating T cells in mice using TCR-transgenic CTL or in wild-type mice. Transcutaneous immunization-activated CTL mount a full-blown immune response against the target epitope characterized by proliferation, cytolytic activ…

Effect of the protein kinase inhibitors, 1-(5-isoquinolinylsulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine H-7 and N-(2-[methylamino]ethyl)-5-isoquinoline-sulfonamide H…

1998

The effects of 1-(5-isoquinolinylsulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine H-7 (a cAMP-dependent protein kinase and protein kinase C inhibitor), n-(2-[methylamino]ethyl)-5-isoquinoline-sulfonamide H-8 (a cAMP- and cGMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitor) and indomethacin (IND, a cyclooxygenase inhibitor) on both the spontaneous metastatic ability of 3LL (Lewis lung carcinoma) tumor cells and anti-tumor host response were studied. The study of tumor progression showed that H-7 and H-8 (2 mg kg(-1) day(-1) , i.p., for 8 days) significantly reduced the mean number of metastases (0.8 +/- 0.2 and 1.0 +/- 0.7, respectively, P0.05) with respect to the number of lung metastases (4.2 +/- 2.1) observed in the con…

Frequency of cytotoxic T lymphocyte precursors to herpes simplex virus type 1 as determined by limiting dilution analysis.

1983

The conditions for establishing a limiting dilution assay to measure cytotoxic T lymphocyte precursors (CTL-P) against herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) were determined. Analysis by Poisson statistics demonstrated that the estimated frequency of HSV-1-reactive cells in the spleens of normal mice was less than 1/250,000. In contrast, mice immunized previously with infectious HSV-1 demonstrated a CTL-P frequency between 1/3,500 and 1/15,670. The generation of a maximum cytotoxic T lymphocyte response required that mice be primed in vivo with infectious virus. Immunization with inactivated virus either failed to elicit detectable CTL-P frequencies or gave frequencies markedly less than thos…
