Abstract:
Plagiohammus Dillon & Dillon, 1941 is considered a junior synonym of Hammatoderus Gemminger & Harold, 1873. Four new species are described: Hammatoderus juliae, from Colombia; H. migueli and H. antonkozlovi, from Ecuador; and H. lingafelteri, from Mexico. Hammoderus spinipennis Thomson, 1860, and Hammoderus quadriplagiatus Breuning, 1943 are placed as junior synonyms of Hammoderus thoracicus White, 1858 (= Hammatoderus thoracicus). Consequently, Hammatoderus jacobyi Nonfried, 1894, synonym of H. spinipennis, is also a junior synonym of H. thoracicus. The synonymy between Hammoderus strandi Breuning, 1943 and Plagiohammus olivescens Dillon & Dillon, 1941 is formally established. Plagiohammus mexicanus Breuning, 1950 is provisionally transferred to Monochamus Dejean, 1821, and the type locality is questioned. Eight types are figured for the first time: Plagiohammus strandi; Plagiohammus mexicanus; Plagiohammus confusor Dillon & Dillon, 1941; Hammoderus spinipennis; Hammoderus quadriplagiatus; Hammoderus inermis (Thomson, 1857); Hammoderus sallei (Thomson, 1860); Hammoderus lacordairei (Thomson, 1860).

ZooKeys 1126 (November 1, 2022): 155–99. http://dx.doi.org/10.3897/zookeys.1126.94545.

Full text
Abstract:
Semiaquatic bugs (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Gerromorpha) are predatory insects that occupy a wide range of freshwater and marine habitats, with some secondary transitions to terrestrial life. They currently represent more than 2100 species distributed through all continents, except for Antarctica, and are especially rich in the Neotropical and Oriental regions. Although the fauna from the former region is relatively well known, some areas remain almost unexplored. Such is the case of French Guiana, where only a few species have been previously recorded, several of which based on collections made in the 19th and early 20th centuries. As a result of material recently collected in the territory, the descriptions of Rhagovelia depressa Rodrigues, Khila & Moreira, sp. nov., R. tantilloides Rodrigues, Khila & Moreira, sp. nov. and Steinovelia vittata Rodrigues, Khila & Moreira, sp. nov. (Veliidae) are presented here. New records for 28 species are also provided, of which Cylindrostethus hungerfordi Drake & Harris, 1934, Neogerris magnus (Kuitert, 1942), Rheumatobates mangrovensis (China, 1943), R. trinitatis (China, 1943), Ovatametra obesa Kenaga, 1942, Telmatometra fusca Kenaga, 1941, T. parva Kenaga, 1941 (Gerridae), Mesovelia amoena Uhler, 1894 (Mesoveliidae), Rhagovelia brunae Magalhães & Moreira, 2016, R. elegans Uhler, 1894, R. ephydros (Drake & Van Doesburg, 1966), R. equatoria D.

Abstract:
Valuable components of the Kunstkamera’s museum collection are two sets donated by Academician Nikolai A. Bush (1869–1941). They are organically connected with the personal biography of this famous St. Petersburg and Leningrad scientist – botanist and florist, geographer and glaciologist, researcher of the glaciers of the Western and Central Caucasus, who made his first Caucasian journey in 1894, and in 1939 the last one. The article deals with one of the collections that arrived at the museum in November 1927 and contains wooden objects from Upper Balkaria: household utensils and agricultural implements. The small collection allows revealing some features of the home life and wooden crafts of the inhabitants of the largest of the five Balkarian societies in a broad historical-cultural context.

Bormanis, John Curt. "Oppositional constructions of Jewishness, gender and ethnicity in the works of James Joyce (1882-1941) and Gertrud Kolmar (1894-1943) (Ireland)." Diss., The University of Arizona, 1994. http://hdl.handle.net/10150/186666.

Full text
Abstract:
In this dissertation I explore the role that religious discourses (especially the Hebrew Bible), ethnic nationalist movements, and shifting configurations of gender played in the works of German-Jewish and Irish Catholic writers during the early twentieth century. I focus on the works of Gertrud Kolmar and James Joyce because they take up oppositional and critical positions vis-a-vis not only the dominant forces of their oppression, but also towards the movements and groups which fostered their oppositional consciences. Thus, while Kolmar found a defense against German anti-Semitism in Jewish tradition, she also struggled against the misogynistic discourses within Judaism. And while Joyce was adamant in his rebellion against the British Empire and the English language, he was equally committed to challenging the parochialism, anti-Semitism, and suffocating Catholicism of the Ireland from which he fled at age 22. The works of both authors are important today because they elucidate the inextricably bound nature of ethnic, religious and gender identities, and offer insights into our continuing struggle to deal with these issues and their modern origins in the early twentieth century.

Full text
Abstract:
Ce travail décrit et interprète les formes esthétiques de violence verbale dans les romans de Louis-Ferdinand Céline et de Réjean Ducharme. Sous le terme invective est rassemblé ce qui concerne la lutte, le conflit, la querelle. Le procédé est envisagé en tant que " fait de texte ", aussi l'étude privilégie-t-elle les dimensions structurale et esthétique du romanesque discursif. Cette thèse étudie la rhétorique et la pragmatique des œuvres de Céline et de Ducharme de façon à en définir la poétique et en comprendre l'influence sur le discours social et littéraire. L'approche théorique intègre la pragmatique, la rhétorique ainsi que la sémiotique narrative, dans la foulée des travaux sur l'énonciation et la parole romanesque ; est aussi adoptée une perspective sociocritique, car il est postulé que l'invective prend son sens par rapport au discours social dont elle révèle les limites, voire les tabous. Ce travail met en évidence que Céline et Ducharme usent des stratégies de la violence verbale écrite et mise en œuvre afin de créer des " imaginaires du défi ". Chez Céline, la violence est tapageuse, elle est tout entière dans la monstration; chez Ducharme, elle est plutôt sournoise, charmeuse. L'invectiveur présenté par Céline confronte la société française, sans craindre l'isolement, envisageant plutôt cette situation comme une marque de l'exception. Les textes de Ducharme, au contraire, accueillent l'esquive comme un mouvement fondateur. Ces attitudes sont différentes, mais l'action n'est pas forcément hiérarchisée, étant entendu que la fuite est aussi un geste de provocation, une façon d'empêcher la réplique
This work describes and interprets the aesthetic forms of verbal violence in Louis-Ferdinand Céline and Réjean Ducharme's novels. The term invective covers fight, conflict, and quarrel. Because this concept is analysed as a " writing fact ", the study privileges the structural and aesthetic dimensions of the fictional discourse. This thesis studies rhetoric and pragmatics of Céline's and Ducharme's novels. It contributes to the definition of the poetics of their works and helps to understand their influence on the social and literary discourses. The theoretical includes pragmatics, rhetoric, narrative semiotics, and also considerations on fictional enunciation. Cultural studies are also used since invective reveals taboos in the social discourse. This work shows that Céline and Ducharme use violence strategies to create challenging writings. These authors have a good standing on the cultural and literary scenes but they break social and aesthetic rules. In Céline's novels, violence is ostentatious; in Ducharme's novels, it's more unpredictable and charming. The actor of violence created by Céline fights the French society and he sees his situation in a glorious way. In a different way of thinking, Ducharme's writings consider dodging as a founding movement. The points of view of the two authors are thus different; however, yet they do not establish a hierarchy since dodging is also a provocative strategy

Abstract:
(I) La technique mathématique incorpore en permanence des questionnements qui ouvrent sur des métaphysiques transversales : métaphysique des notations ; métaphysique de l'expansion symbolique ; métaphysique du caractère irréversiblement et nécessairement synthétique du Calcul. Sur un plan trans-historique, l'exigence ubiquitaire et reproductible de généralisation manifeste un autre aspect de l'irréversibilité du questionnement mathématique, car ce qui est technique exprime et étudie les questionnements dans leur complexité ramifiée-démultipliée. De plus, caractère auto-compulsif du Calcul, nécessité interne des combinatoires, gouvernance transformationnelle des symboles et genèse incontournable du Multiple par l'Un incitent à entrevoir une morphogenèse a posteriori du Concept dans et par le Calcul. Enfin, l'universalité des ouvertures mathématiques montre que les connaissances demeurent potentielles et que les totalisations cachent toujours des connaissances non structuralistes qui sont d'un niveau synthétique supérieur. (II) Est-il possible de caractériser l'espace euclidien tridimensionnel qui s'offre si immédiatement à l'intuition physique au moyen d'axiomes mathématiques simples et naturels ? Plus généralement, est-il possible de caractériser les espaces de Bolyai-Lobatchevskii à courbure constante négative, ainsi que les espaces de Riemann à courbure constante positive, à l'exclusion de toute autre géométrie contraire à une intuition directe ? Les travaux de Sophus Lie, et notamment la Theorie der Transformationsgruppen (2100 pages, 1884--93) écrite en collaboration avec Friedrich Engel, offrent une solution complète et rigoureuse à ce problème soulevé et traité de manière incomplète par Helmholtz. L'introduction historique, philosophique et mathématique ainsi que la traduction française qui sont proposées aspirent à faire connaître un aspect de l'{\oe}uvre monumentale de Sophus Lie qui demeure essentiellement peu évoqué au sein de la philosophie traditionnelle de la géométrie. (III) Le mémoire de doctorat s'achève par une traduction anglaise annotée du premier volume de la Theorie der Transformationsgruppen
The mathematical technique permanently incorporates questionings which open up transversal metaphysics : metaphysics of notation ; metaphysics of symbolic swelling ; metaphysics of the irreversibly and necessary synthetical character of Calculation. At a trans-historical level, the ubiquituous exigence of generalization demonstrates another aspect for the irreversibility of mathematical questioning, because what is technical expresses and studies questionnings in their ramified-demultiplied complexity. In addition, auto-compulsory character of Calculation, internal necessity of combinatorics, transformational governing of symbols, and genesis of the Multiple by the One incite to foresee an a posteriori genesis of the Concept inside and by means of the Calculation; Lastly, the universality of the Open in mathematics shows that knowledges remain potential and that tentative totalisations always hide non-structural knowledges that lie in deeper synthetical levels. (II) is it possible to characterize the Euclidian space which shows up so immediately to the physical institution by means of mathematical axioms that are simple and natural ? More generally, is it possible to characterize the constant curvature spaces of Bolyai-Lobatchevskii, and as well the constant curvure Riemann spaces, excluding any other geometry which contradicts direct intuition ? The works of Sophus Lie, and notably the Theorie der Transformationsgruppen (2100 pages, 1884--93), written in collaboration with Friedrich Engel, offer a complete and rigorous solution to this problem, raised and treated incompletely by Helmholtz. The historical, philosophical and mathematical introduction, ans as well the French translation that are here proposed aim at exhibiting an aspect of the monumental work of Sophus Lie that remains essentially rarely mentioned within traditional philosophy of geometry. (III) The doctoral memoir ends up with an annotated English translation of the first volume of the Theorie der Transformationsgruppen

Full text
Abstract:
R. Boudjedra : un écrivain contestable et contesté par un lectorat. Il a lui-même produit une oeuvre contestaire. En fait, dans cette contestation, de part et d'autre, se laisse entrevoir l'affrontement de l'Orient et de l'Occident ou de la Modernité et de la Tradition ; bref, l'absence de consensus et de tout lien. Tout dans son oeuvre concourt à présenter un univers fait d'analogies et d'oppositions. Le bien et le mal sont donnés dans leur bipolarité et dans l'impossible dialogue des êtres antinomiques. L'auteur, ainsi, pour démanteler l'ordre ancien jugé oppressif, constitue son oeuvre en programme idéologique intransigeant. Le littéraire, aussi polyphonique soit l'oeuvre, est subordonné à l'idéologie : l'esthétique (thèmes, symboles, mythes, narrativité, modèles : L. -F. Céline, C. Simon, G. G. Marquez. . . ) n'est aucunement innocente ; elle a été choisie justement - par un procédé d'identification - pour réaliser ce programme et est considérée comme l'arsenal des moyens que l'écrivain se donne à des fins bien précises. .
R. Boudjedra : a controversial writer whose contentious work has been challenged in debate which reveals a glimpse of the confrontation of East with West, of Modernity with Tradition ; in sum a lack of consensus and absence of all ties. Every element in his work contributes to present a world created of analogies and opposites. Good and exil are prented in their bipolarity and through the impossible dialogue of antinomic beings. In an effort to dismantle an order he judges oppressive, the author constitutes his work with an uncompromising ideological platform. The literary, however polyphonic the work, is subordinated to the ideological : the esthetic (themes, symbols, myths, models : L. F. Celine, C. Simon, G. G. Marquez. . . ) is not unbiased ; it is chosen precisely - by the process of identification - to further the platform and provides and arsenal of means with which the author achieves a very specific end. .

Abstract:
Le style littéraire de Louis-Ferdinand Céline repose sur l'emploi de la langue parlée populaire. A première vue, la procédure linguistique de Céline peut donner parfois l'impression d'être globalement conforme à la règle générale de la grammaire traditionnelle. Cependant, son champ d'application déborde très largement celui de cette règle. Il consiste à imprimer au langage parlé une certaine déformation de telle sorte qu'une fois écrit, à la lecture, il semble au lecteur qu'on lui parle à l'oreille. Pour ce faire, il a su intégrer dans ses œuvres de nombreux ingrédients, d'ordres divers et parfaitement aléatoires : variations de prononciation, choix de lexies appartenant à la fois aux registres et aux niveaux les plus hétérogènes, syntaxe mêlant tous les degrés de niveau grammatical. D'autre part, il simplifie les démarches en les dépouillant des lourdeurs du dogmatisme et de fausses règles. Il multiplie également les points de vue qui correspondent à l'infinie variété de constructions que pourrait offrir la langue française. Céline est donc un écrivain qui s'oppose à la tradition littéraire en s'ouvrant une nouvelle voie. Son talent et sa célébrité prennent ainsi leur source dans l'originalité de son style
Louis-Ferdinand Céline's literary style lies on the use of the popular spoken language. In fact, his linguistic process looks like to conform to the traditional grammar rule. However, its application field largely overflows the one of this rule. It consists in communicating some distortion to the spoken language so that it seems to the reader that someone whispers something in his ear. To set up his process, Céline integrated in his works many ingredients: variation of pronunciation, choice of the vocabulary belonging simultaneously to the most heterogeneous registers and levels, syntax mixing every degrees of grammar level. He simplified the classical process by casting off many heaviness of dogmatism. He also multiplied the points of view and mistaken rules to the infinite variety of the sentences structure that French could offer. Therefore, Céline is a writer who opposed to the literary tradition and opened a new way of writing in French literature. His talent and his celebrity are probably due to his original style

Abstract:
From the first electric lights in London along Pall Mall, and in the Holborn Viaduct in 1878 to the nationalisation of National Grid in 1947, the narrative of the simple ascendency of a new technology over its outdated predecessor is essential to the way we have imagined electric light in London at the end of the nineteenth century. However, as this thesis will demonstrate, the interplay between gas and electric light - two co-existing and competing illuminary technologies - created a particular and peculiar landscape of light, a 'lightscape', setting London apart from its contemporaries throughout the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Indeed, this narrative forms the basis of many assertions made in critical discussions of artificial illumination and technology in the late-twentieth century; however, this was not how electric light was understood at the time nor does it capture how electric light both captivated and eluded the imagination of contemporary Londoners. The influence of the electric light in the representations of London is certainly a literary question, as many of those writing during this period of electrification are particularly attentive to the city's rich and diverse lightscape. Though this has yet to be made explicit in existing scholarship, electric lights are the nexus of several important and ongoing discourses in the study of Victorian, Post-Victorian, Modernist, and twentieth-century literature. This thesis will address how the literary influence of the electric light and its relationship with its illuminary predecessors transcends the widespread electrification of London to engage with an imaginary London, providing not only a connection with our past experiences and conceptions of the city, modernity, and technology but also an understanding of what Frank Mort describes as the 'long cultural reach of the nineteenth century into the post-war period'.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis examines the early military career and life of Lieutenant General Sir Frank Berryman from 1894 through to the end of his involvement in the Middle East campaigns. It begins with his family background and education on the outskirts of Melbourne before tracing, in detail, his personal life and military career until the end of 1941. The specific focus of this investigation is not just his military education and his role in the Cyrenaica and Syrian campaigns, but also the development of his personality and character. Personality and character provides a window of insight that not only helps to illuminate Berryman?s performance as an officer and his professional relationships but it also allows for a deeper understanding of this complex individual. This thesis argues that these, the 'lost years' and 'forgotten battles' , are integral to developing an understanding of this exceptional officer. In Berryman we see an important staff officer and commander whose place in Australia's military history has been largely overlooked. One of the central themes of this work is that Berryman has been misunderstood and misrepresented within the existing historiography. He was one of the most important figures in the Australian Army during the Second World War and it was during the period covered in this thesis that he established his reputation as a commander and staff officer. Key to this investigation, therefore, is the themes of Berryman's developing leadership and culture of command. This work seeks to reveal the nature and experience of a highly successful officer who is also, to a great extent, representative of a generation of permeant Staff Corps officers who have largely been ignored within the genre of Australian military biography. Ultimately this thesis concludes that Berryman was a central figure in the Australian Army's success in Cyrenaica and Syria. He demonstrated all of the qualities essential for a successful commander and senior officer and it was in these battles and his earlier military and life experiences that set the stage for his exceptional performance and contribution to the success of the Australian Army, not only in the Middle East but also later in the South West Pacific Campaigns.

Abstract:
Martha Adriana Muusses werd op 27 september 1894 geboren in Purmerend als dochter van uitgever Jan Muusses (1847-1909) en diens tweede vrouw Trijntje Ruardi (1860-1920). Ze overleed op 27 oktober 1981 in Laren, 87 jaar oud. Evenals de klassieke godheid Janus had Martha A. Muusses twee gezichten. Ze vertaalde met bijna even groot gemak uit het Zweeds in het Nederlands als uit het Nederlands in het Zweeds en is daarmee een goed voorbeeld van een bilaterale cultuurbemiddelaar. Haar bijdrage aan de receptie van de Nederlandse literatuur in Zweden was aanzienlijk. Zo introduceerde ze Nederlandse auteurs als Henriette Roland Holst (1869-1952) in Zweden. Haar belang als cultuurbemiddelaar voor de Zweedse literatuur ligt in haar vertalingen van met name Zweedse modernistische poëzie. Ze vertaalde gedichten van onder meer Karin Boye (1900-1941) en Harry Martinson (1904-1978) in het Nederlands. Haar vertalingen verschenen in een tijd waarin het beeld van Scandinavische literatuur in Nederland werd gekleurd door het stereotype beeld van ‘Blut und Boden’ literatuur. Wellicht raakte Muusses daarom na de Tweede Wereldoorlog uit beeld als cultuurbemiddelaar. Zij vertaalde geen lijvige boerenromans, maar liet een klein oeuvre na van vertalingen van Zweedse poëzie van de belangrijkste dichters.

Abstract:
Abstract From The Girl Friend (1926) to Pal Joey (1940} drama critic Brooks Atkinson (1894-1984} was the man who introduced New York Times readers to the originality and pleasures of Rodgers and Hart shows. Atkinson consistently gave these shows high marks. Even when “in one of their workmanlike moods” (Atkinson’s characterization of Higher and Higher), a Rodgers and Hart musical gave their New York Times critic enough to encourage theatergoers to attend. One rare exception was Chee-Chee, which Atkinson indicted as “their most pretentious production and the least entertaining:’ Due to his service as a war correspondent from 1941 to 1946, Atkinson missed the premiere of By Jupiter, the revival of A Connecticut Yankee, and the debuts of Oklahoma! and Carousel, but between his return as a drama critic and his retirement in 1960 he reviewed Rodgers and Hammerstein’s final seven shows and a return engagement of Oklahomaf’s national touring company. In reviewing Pal Joey Atkinson praises the production as “well-staged” and “expertly done,” lauds Gene Kelly’s “triumphant” debut performance as an actor and a dancer in a musical, and singles out “Bewitched” as “one of Richard Rodgers’s most haunting tunes” in a score filled with “wit and skill:’ But for a reviewer who the previous year found the good-natured Too Many Girls “humorous, fresh and exhilarating,” the “high class” Pal Joey is undermined by its “ugly” topic, a “joyless” book, and depraved characters, and “offers everything but a good time.”

Abstract:
The 1940s witnessed the appearance of a handful of scientists who, defying the specialism characteristic of most of 20th-century science, strode easily across borders erected to protect disciplinary territories. They were people who, had they been familiar with the poetry of the Nobel laureate Indian poet–philosopher Rabindranath Tagore (1861– 1941), would have shared his vision of a “heaven of freedom”: . . .Where the world has not been broken up into fragments by narrow domestic walls. . . . Norbert Wiener (1894–1964), logician, mathematician, and prodigy, who was awarded a PhD by Harvard at age 17, certainly yearned for this heaven of freedom in the realm of science as the war-weary first half of the 20th century came to an end. He would write that he and his fellow scientist and collaborator Arturo Rosenbluth (1900–1970) had long shared a belief that, although during the past two centuries scientific investigations became increasingly specialized, the most “fruitful” arenas lay in the “no-man’s land” between the established fields of science. There were scientific fields, Wiener remarked, that had been studied from different sides, each bestowing its own name to the field, each ignorant of what others had discovered, thus creating work that was “triplicated or quadruplicated” because of mutual ignorance or incomprehension. Wiener, no respecter of “narrow domestic walls” would inhabit such “boundary regions” between mathematics, engineering, biology, and sociology, and create cybernetics, a science devoted to the study of feedback systems common to living organisms, machines, and social systems. Here was a science that straddled the no-man’s land between the traditionally separate domains of the natural and the artificial. Wiener’s invention of cybernetics after the end of World War II was a marker of a certain spirit of the times when, in the manner in which Wiener expressed his yearning, scientists began to create serious links between nature and artifact. It is inevitable that this no-man’s land between the natural and the artificial should be part of this story.
