Honour, Masculinity and Corporality in the Officer Corps of Early Eighteenth-Century Sweden
2010
Military honour and physical commitment to serve king and fatherland played a central role in the ideals of the army of Charles XII of Sweden. These ideals were formed within a culture in which the role of the warrior, dictated by a code of honour, was constantly challenged. My main empirical primary sources consist of the archivale records of the Swedish Diet, which included Placement Committee records from the Diet of 1723. An honourable man had the right to a livelihood and a respectable position in society. My aim is to show that, in order to obtain such a position, a military man had to present himself as someone who had offered his body in the service of his king and country. An appea…
La industria del cómic en España: radiografía de ¿un mito o una realidad?
2011
In spite of the importance of figures referred to published titles, or number of copies printed, which help to set publishing strategies and to really know the comic situation in Spain, there are no liable data. We are giving in this article, some enlightening data along with some explanations related to the evolution of the market from 2001 to 2009. The different titles are grouped considering the place they come from (Europe, Asia, United States…), along with their format (album, book, magazine, comic-book…). Using all this information, we can deduce evolution lines, tendencies, futures perspectives in an industry that, despite its precariousness, is facing an increasing number of copies …
Go-betweens, revisited: a historiographical proposal through the trial of an indefinable man (sixteenth century)
2018
AbstractThis article studies the trial of Francisco Mariano, suspected of participation in a conspiracy linking Algeria, Istanbul and the Moriscos in Spain at the beginning of the Alpujarras revolt (1568–1571) and just before the battle of Lepanto. In doing so, it engages with how historians have used the notion of the “go-between,” and proposes a broader definition of the term. Extending the term to a wider range of social actors reveals the fluid mobility of the Early Modern Mediterranean spaces, in contrast to an interpretation of a world constrained by cultural and international borders.
Subjectivity and Femininity: Reading Antigone
2017
With Antigone's lecture, author answer to the question: what is a subject in the feminine? This question allows us to overcome the classic interpretations of Antigone (Hegel, Lacan) and to elaborate a new reading thanks to Kierkegaard, Butler, Derrida, Marion and to the centrality of the theme of love.
A Multimedia Museum Application Based Upon a Landscape Embedded Digital 3D Model of an Ancient Settlement
2012
This paper describes the development of a digital reconstruction of the celtic hillfort “Altburg” (Germany), which was generated in the context of a museums exhibition in the Hunsruck-Museum Simmern (Germany). This model refers to the City GML standard and considers the principles of the London Charter for establishing internationally recognized principles for the use of three-dimensional visualization by researchers, educators and cultural heritage organizations.
Un-rooted grafted cuttings for eggplant plug-transplant production and shipping: simulated transportation and healing requirements
2019
Vegetable grafting is one of the most effective eco-friendly techniques to overcome pests and soilborne diseases in modern cropping systems of fruiting vegetables. Due to the increased farmers’ preference for grafted seedlings of high quality and better performance, the use of vegetable grafted plants is rapidly spreading and expanding over the world and intensive researches on new commercial production systems are under way. However, in many areas of the world, due to the high cost of skilled manpower, the use of grafted plug plants is still limited causing a relatively slow development of the grafting nursery industry. The aim of this work was to evaluate a possible use of un-rooted graft…
Influence of Temperature, Hypercapnia, and Development on the Relative Expression of Different Hemocyanin Isoforms in the Common CuttlefishSepia offi…
2012
The cuttlefish Sepia officinalis expresses several hemocyanin isoforms with potentially different pH optima, indicating their reliance on efficient pH regulation in the blood. Ongoing ocean warming and acidification could influence the oxygen-binding properties of respiratory pigments in ectothermic marine invertebrates. This study examined whether S. officinalis differentially expresses individual hemocyanin isoforms to maintain optimal oxygen transport during development and acclimation to elevated seawater pCO2 and temperature. Using quantitative PCR, we measured relative mRNA expression levels of three different hemocyanin isoforms in several ontogenetic stages (embryos, hatchlings, juv…
The Modern Strategies in the Cyber Warfare
2018
As there is no generally accepted definition for cyber warfare, it is a term that is quite liberally used in describing events and actions in the digital cyber world. The concept of cyber warfare became extremely popular from 2008 to 2010, partly superseding the previously used concept of information warfare which was launched in the 1990s. For some, cyber warfare is war that is conducted in the virtual domain. For others, it is a counterpart to conventional “kinetic” warfare. According to the OECD’s 2001 report, cyberwar military doctrines resemble those of so-called conventional war: retaliation and deterrence. Researchers agree with the notion that the definition of cyberwar should addre…
Moritz Hauptmann in München. Hochschuldidaktik im 19. Jahrhundert
2014
Dass Moritz Hauptmanns Buch Die Natur der Harmonik und der Metrik zur Basis institutionalisierter musiktheoretischer Unterweisung wurde, wie an der Koniglich bayerischen Musikschule in Munchen nachweisbar, mag angesichts des hohen Abstraktionsgrads dieser Schrift verwundern. Besonders der Unterricht in der ersten Dekade an der Musikschule kann als einzigartiges Exempel der systematischen Anwendung Hauptmanns in der Lehre verstanden werden. Der Beitrag erortert die Bedeutung der Schrift Hauptmanns fur die Lehre der wichtigsten Fachvertreter nach Grundung der Musikschule (Peter Cornelius und Josef Gabriel Rheinberger), sowie – als Verfallsgeschichte – in der Zeit nach Cornelius’ fruhem Tod un…
The efficient bovine insulin presentation capacity of bone marrow-derived macrophages activated by granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor c…
1993
Bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMM phi) were shown before to function as antigen-presenting cells. We show here, that the antigen presentation capacity of BMM phi depends on the nature of the antigen and is differently regulated by the lymphokines interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) and granulocyte/macrophage-colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF). When bovine insulin (BI) was employed as antigen, only BMM phi treated with GM-CSF (GM-CSF-M phi) were efficient presenters, but when presentation of the antigens ovalbumin and conalbumin was tested, IFN-gamma-pulsed BMM phi (IFN-gamma-M phi) proved superior to GM-CSF-M phi. The lack of efficient BI presentation function of IFN-gamma-M phi was only obviou…
