Full textAbstract:
This paper presents oral narratives told about Abuna Gärima, one of the so called Nine Saints, and his evangelical mission in northern Ethiopia. The narratives presented in the paper discuss different issues: where and how did he write his Gospel, which is believed to be the first Ethiopic Gospel, and the oldest known manuscript in the literary culture of the country; the different miracles the Saint performed during his years of service at the monastery; and how he is commemorated in the people’s popular songs and qǝne, a unique style of Gǝʿǝz poetry. These narratives were collected through oral interviews made with individuals who relate themselves to the monastery which is believed to have been founded by the Saint.

Full textAbstract:
The following article explores one way of using Latin sources to increase our understanding and appreciation of the surviving corpus of vernacular prose hagiography in Anglo-Saxon England. Although the saints' legends in prose make up a significant portion of the Old English literary remains, they have been relatively neglected in comparison with the saints' legends in Old English verse, such asAndreas, Guthlac AandGuthlac B, and Cynewulf'sElene. As the standard bibliographies reveal well enough, the prose texts have been studied mainly from the perspectives of language, stylistics, codicology and basicQuellenforschung, and much less than the verse texts for their literary, historical or broadly cultural interest. This is particularly true of the twenty-nine anonymous legends, some of which are not readily accessible in printed versions, and most of which need re-editing. But even the hagiographic writings of Ælfric, which are better known, have been read only occasionally for their narrative contentperse. Primary emphasis has fallen instead on Ælfric's considerable stylistic and prosodic achievements. Moreover, the two most recent monographs on Ælfric's intellectual and doctrinal concerns hardly touch on his saints' legends.

Full textAbstract:
This article considers the architecture of English medieval churches and how it was affected by its function as a setting for the cult of saints. It looks at the impression which the patrons of medieval buildings were hoping to make on the minds and spirits of those who visited them. It is not concerned so much with the functional planning issues surrounding access, security, and the management of pilgrims as it is with the symbolic content of those larger spaces within which the shrine and its immediate surroundings are contained and visually celebrated. Plans, forms, and decoration carrying specific associations with prestigious buildings in Rome are considered in relation to some early medieval buildings. The new work at Canterbury, following the fire of 1174, created a new and influential architectural language adopted by other cathedrals in which aspects of the saint could be signaled by architectural detail and decoration. The article ends with the thirteenth-century Chapel of the Nine Altars at Durham as a setting for the shrine of Cuthbert.

<p>Islam is a religion of compassion. This fact is different from the majority of followers who translate it in all segments of life in a formalistic form, so that the compassionate identity of Islam is often mortgaged. Islam is exclusive with other religions and beliefs. As a result, Islam is also difficult to expand and accused of being a rigid and exclusive religion. Islam that was born and developed in the archipelago practiced by Walisongo is flexible with other beliefs. One of its practices Walisongo succeeded in taking inspiration from the Hinduism of the Hindu Nawa Dewata to become Sufistic trustees. The nine deities in Hinduism were replaced by nine saints who later became known as Walisongo. Through Walisongo's da'wah analysis Islamizing other religions, namely theological approach, games and cultural accuracy, it was found that the change in cosmology of Nawa Dewata became Walisongo because in Islam and Hinduism both contained values of compassion, compassion, and intertwining among creatures God. The saints carried out the takeover by prioritizing three main principles, namely prioritizing the interests of the community over him, compassion as the concept of a human unity with God, and an emotional approach. All three make Islam easily understood as a religion of affection, so that it is easily accepted by Hindus.</p>

The article is devoted to the menologion (calendar of saints) compiled in the 20th century for Russian Byzantine Catholics. The latter are a church community with its own Byzantine-Slavic worship and piety, which follow both the Catholic and the Eastern spiritual traditions. Like the entire liturgical literature of the Russian Eastern Catholics, the menologion was created in Rome under the auspices of the Congregation for Eastern Churches, as part of the activities of the Russian Catholic Apostolate, i.e., of the mission of the Catholic Church addressed to Russia and the Russian diaspora in the world. The corpus of service books for Russian, Bulgarian and Serbian Eastern Catholics was called Recensio Vulgata. The menologion under study is contained in the books of Recensio Vulgata and was compiled on the basis of the Orthodox menologia of pre-revolutionary Russia. The compilers of the Byzantine-Catholic menologion did not just select Russian liturgical memories in a certain way, they also included the names of several martyrs of the Eastern Catholic Churches and some additional commemorations of Western saints. According to the compilers of the menologion, the history of Catholic (orthodox) holiness in North-Eastern Russia ended at the turn of the 1440s, when the Principality of Moscow and the Novgorod Republic abandoned the Union of Florence. The menologion reflects the era after the Union of Florence in the events that show the invariable patronage of the Mother of God over the people and the Russian land. The Recensio Vulgata menologion (RVM) contains twelve Russia-specific holidays that honor icons of the Mother of God, nine of which celebrate the events of the period from the late 15th to the 17th centuries. The compilers of the menologion created a well-devised system in which the East Slavic saints, the ancient saints of the Byzantine menologion, the Latin teachers of the Church, the saints of the Byzantine Catholic churches of different eras all are subject to harmonious logic, and harmony serves to organize the whole.

Full textAbstract:
The essence of banks in an economy cannot be underscored enough. However, poor institutional as well as unscrupulous banking and accounting practices could collapse a banking system and wreak an economy-wide havoc due to a contagion. Thus, the impact of bank failures/crises are grave. Given that this paper seeks to comprehensively discuss bank failures in the light of both agency and structural perspectives. Also, the study theorizes the causes of bank failures using Ayee's (2000) concepts and Pierre Bourdieu’s theory of social practice. The study adopted a qualitative methodology and used nine failed Ghanaian banks as cases. A latent content analysis on reports of these recent nine failed banks indicated the banking crises were a reproduction of old social actions, which include weak regulatory supervision, poor corporate gover-nance and risk management practices. Besides, the culture of weak enforcement explained the collapse of the local banks unlike their foreign counterparts who had internalized the culture of their parent companies and also possessed the right cultural capitals. Further, it was observed that weak saints, hungry and deceitful demons, lazy wizards, praise and attention-loving pagans and the neglect of prophets were the issues responsible for the bank crises or failures in Ghana.

Full textAbstract:
During the Middle Ages, the cult of St Winifred was the most important of the many Welsh cults centred on wells. Winifred’s story was recounted in two medieval Lives: the Vita prima by Pseudo-Elerius (c. 1100), written from a Welsh perspective, and the Vita secunda by Robert, prior of Shrewsbury, written after the translation of the saint’s supposed relics to his abbey in 1138. According to these, Winifred (fl. c. 650) was educated by St Beuno in North Wales; and, although she had vowed herself to virginity, she inspired the lust of a local prince, Caradog, who, when repulsed, decapitated her. Where her head fell, a spring erupted; and Beuno restored Winifred to life and killed Caradog with a curse. Winifred subsequently became abbess at Gwytherin and, after her death, the spring’s waters were held to cure the sick miraculously. The spring, at Holywell in Flintshire, attracted countless pilgrims in the later Middle Ages, and Henry VII’s mother, Lady Margaret Beaufort, encased it in a fine building. At the Reformation, however, the cult of saints was abolished, the Twenty-Second of the Thirty-Nine Articles specifically denouncing their invocation.

<p class="abstrak">This article explains the <em>Wali Pitu</em> (the seven saints) as a new form of veneration dynamics in Indonesia, which was built by the sacredness of Bali as the heart of Hindu culture in Indonesia. This phenomenon is unique and interesting, because the seven tombs of Muslim saints are venerated by Hindus of the region. This study uses a qualitative approach with the case-study method, extracting data as documentation from the notes of Toyyib Zaen Arifin during the expedition to search the seven graves, and interviews with members of the Manaqib al-Jamali, guidance, organizers and religious tourism congregations, as well as several caretakers of the tombs. This article describes the sacred construction of the discovery of the seven sainthoods tombs and their cults and their dynamics as a new form of the veneration of saints in Indonesia, one that differs from the other forms of veneration in Java which has been deeply rooted for a long time, such as the <em>Wali Songo</em> (the nine saints).</p><p class="abstrak" align="left"> </p><p><em>Artikel ini berupaya menjelaskan Wali Pitu (tujuh wali) sebagai bentuk baru dinamika venerasi di Indonesia yang dibangun oleh sakralitas Bali sebagai jantung peradaban Hindu.

Full textAbstract:
The heroes of God scorn apostasy. Bound and thrust into an insanely fired furnace, its flames jetting nine and forty cubits above the oven itself, they stand unconcerned in the midst of it, their bonds wondrously burned away. And the flames do not touch them; rather, the fire bursts out the sides to incinerate the torturers who stoke it. Then an angel of the Lord enters the furnace and thrusts the fire from the saints, who feel the pleasant refreshment of a dewy breeze. In the middle of the fire they stand and praise God. Astonished, their persecutor beholds the trio with the fourth who has joined them, who is like unto the Son of God, and calls the three forth from the midst of the fire. He, too, acknowledges and praises God when he and his court see, no longer through the confusing shimmer of heat, but with indisputable clarity, right before their eyes, the converting proof: no power had the fire over the saints' bodies, and not a hair of their heads had been singed, and neither had their garments been affected.

Full textAbstract:
A large part of Canadian literature being produced today is being done by immigrants and the children of immigrants. Struggling between the dominant culture and the history and traditions of their parents, whom they desire to honor, these writers adopt modes of representation ranging from the elegiac to the ironic.Nino Ricci's first book Lives of the Saints begins from the perspective of Vittorio as an adult, but the narrative that the reader follows is developed from his perspective as a child focusing on his ethnic roots. The narrative structure is two-fold: it is a combination of the objectivity of a child's innocent observations with a child's sense of wonder and magic and a strong influence from the adult narrator's voice.
This thesis will examine the narrative approach, the rhetorical devices and the use of myth that Ricci harnesses in his novel in order to show how his work is marked with ambiguity and paradox which points to the psychological condition of immigrants in Canada. The discussion will also focus on some of the literary models that influenced Ricci's narrative, such as Alice Munro, Carlo Levi and Corrado Alvaro.

Previous issue date: 2012-11-09The objectives were to evaluate the genetic parameters for the daily weight gain (GPD) of different families of Nile tilapia strain GIFT evaluated in fish farming at UEM/Codapar in Maringá and Sgarbi in Palotina, verify the occurrence of genotype-environment interaction and to compare the morphometric characteristics and performance of single sex populations of male tilapia strains GIFT® and Saint Peter reared in mixed system in Fish Culture Station of the Sgarbi, Paraná, Brazil. The cultivation was carried out during the period June to November 2011, totaling 160 days. The system used in the Fish Culture Station of the Sgarbi was a semi-intensive being adopted the density of 2.0 fish m-2. There were housed 480 fish of the GIFT strain and 1400 fish of the red hybrid, totaling 1880 animals, with an average weight of 15 g. The total GIFT population studied consisted of 720 fish, distributed in 19 families. There were used the complete pedigree information GIFT strain since its introduction in Brazil. For performance testing, two groups of fish previously identified with 240 and 480 specimens, were housed in fish farms ponds in Maringá and Palotina, respectively. The fish were distributed to have representatives of all families in both environments. After rearing period the fish assessed in Maringá and Palotina had a final weight average of 417 g and 280 g, respectively. The covariance components, genetic parameters and phenotypic were estimated proceeding to Bayesian inference, using the computer system MTGSAM. There were used the credibility interval (IC) at 5% probability to determine the differences of genetic parameters and variance components in the local culture. The additive genetic variance to the GPD showed values of 0.113 and 0.045 and the residual variance was 0.036 and 0.024, respectively for Maringá and Palotina. The phenotypic variance estimated for GPD in Maringá was higher than that Palotina. The heritability (h2) of the GPD in Maringá (h2 = 0.707) and Palotina (h2=0.575) were considered high with wide credibility intervals. The genetic correlations and phenotypic to the GPD in Maringá and Palotina had values of 0.20 and 0.13, respectively. The estimates of Spearman correlation, based on breeding values for the individual GPD (0.48) and GPD family (0.59) were significant. The estimates of the correlations of genetic parameters to GIFT strains indicate the presence of genotype-environment interaction. The daily weight gains of tilapia in local assessed are characterized as distinct, and may be influenced by different sets of genes. There were collected and individually assessed 190 and 102 tilapia males, respectively of the GIFT and Saint Peter® strains. The average final weight and daily weight gain among the three genetic groups of the GIFT strain showed no significant differences. However all groups of GIFT strain showed average values of performance and morphometric characteristics superior to hybrid strain Saint Peter®. There was a significant difference only for the height of the GIFT strain of tilapia group higher than the bottom. The morphometric characteristics and growth performance are superior to the GIFT strain, regardless of genetic group, compared to Saint Peter®, except for the head length/standard length of tilapia evaluated.
Objetivou-se estimar os parâmetros genéticos para característica de ganho em peso diário (GPD) de diferentes famílias de tilápia do Nilo da variedade GIFT nas pisciculturas UEM/Codapar em Maringá e Sgarbi em Palotina, verificar a ocorrência de interação genótipo-ambiente e comparar as características morfométricas e o desempenho em cultivo monossexo macho de tilápia das variedades GIFT e Saint Peter® cultivadas em sistema misto na Estação da Piscicultura Sgarbi, Paraná, Brasil. O cultivo foi conduzido durante o período de junho a novembro de 2011, totalizando 160 dias. Na piscicultura Sgarbi foi utilizado o sistema semi-intensivo, sendo adotada a densidade de 2,0 peixes m-2. Foram alojados 480 peixes da variedade GIFT e 1400 peixes da variedade vermelha híbrida, totalizando 1880 animais, com peso médio individual de 15 g. A população GIFT avaliada consistiu de 720 peixes, distribuída em 19 famílias. Foram utilizadas informações de pedigree completo, desde sua introdução no Brasil. Para o teste de desempenho, dois grupos de peixes previamente identificados, o primeiro com 240 e o segundo com 480 espécimes, foram alojados em viveiros nas pisciculturas UEM/Codapar e Sgarbi, respectivamente em Maringá e Palotina. Distribuíram-se os peixes para que tivessem representantes de todas as famílias nos dois ambientes. Ao final do período de cultivo, as tilápias GIFT avaliadas em Maringá e Palotina apresentaram peso médio final de 417 g e 280 g, respectivamente. Os componentes de covariância e os parâmetros genéticos e fenotípicos foram estimados procedendo-se a inferência bayesiana, por meio do sistema computacional MTGSAM. Utilizou-se o Intervalo de Credibilidade (IC), ao nível de 5% de probabilidade, para determinação das diferenças dos parâmetros genéticos e componentes de variância nos locais de cultivo. A variância genética aditiva para o GPD apresentou valores de 0,113 e 0,045 e a variância residual foi de 0,036 e 0,024, respectivamente para Maringá e Palotina. A variância fenotípica estimada para o GPD em Maringá foi superior à de Palotina. A herdabilidade (h2) do GPD em Maringá (h2 = 0,707) e para Palotina (h2 = 0,575) foram consideradas altas, com amplos intervalos de credibilidade. As correlações genética e fenotípica para GPD em Maringá e Palotina apresentaram valores de 0,20 e 0,13, respectivamente. As estimativas da correlação de Spearman, com base nos valores genéticos, para o GPD individual (0,48) e GPD das famílias (0,59) foram significativas. As estimativas das correlações dos parâmetros avaliados na variedade GIFT indicam presença da interação genótipo-ambiente. Os ganhos em peso diário das tilápias nos locais avaliados caracterizam-se como distintos, portanto podem ser influenciados por diferentes conjuntos de genes. Foram avaliados individualmente 190 e 102 tilápias machos, respectivamente, das variedades GIFT e Saint Peter® e os valores médios de peso final e ganho em peso diário entre os três grupos genéticos da variedade GIFT não apresentaram diferença significativas. Porém, todos os grupos da variedade GIFT apresentaram valores médios do desempenho e das características morfométricas superiores à variedade híbrida Saint Peter®. Houve diferença significativa apenas para a altura das tilápias da variedade GIFT do grupo superior em relação ao inferior. As características morfométricas e desempenho zootécnico são superiores para a variedade GIFT, independente do grupo genético, quando comparada à Saint Peter®, com exceção da relação comprimento da cabeça/comprimento padrão das tilápias avaliadas.

Full textAbstract:
Within the state of Florida, there are three arboviruses of public health importance that can cause neuroinvasive disease in humans: West Nile Virus, Saint Louis Encephalitis Virus, and Eastern Equine Encephalitis Virus. Mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae) within the genus Culex are known and suspected vectors of these diseases. The vectors of these diseases can be present in urban wetland habitats that allow for exposure to residential communities. Vector ecology must be investigated in order to understand the dynamics of disease transmission. In Hillsborough County, Florida the spatial and temporal distribution of these vectors are not well established. An ecological study was conducted in the University of South Florida's Ecopreserve using trapping methodologies to sample the adult and gravid females as well as collect the egg population. Collections were made at three spatial points for the duration of July through December 2013 and compared to meteorological variables. Culex erraticus, a proposed bridge vector of Eastern Equine Encephalitis, was the most abundant adult species and gravid female captured. Culex nigripalpus, primary Floridian vector of Saint Louis Encephalitis and bridge vector of West Nile Virus, was the second most abundant adult species caught as well as the majority of eggs collected. Based on the results collected, the presence of Culex erraticus and Culex nigripalpus was confirmed. The majority of Culex erraticus adults were collected in September and October and Culex nigripalpus adults were the highest in July and August. The results of the gravid and egg collection generated crucial insight regarding methodology for studying vector ecology within this urban wetland habitat. However, modeling at spatial points based on meteorological variables yielded inconsistent results that illicit further investigation regarding these arboviral vectors of disease.

Full textAbstract:
Metteur en scène contemporain dont l’itinéraire personnel est une conséquence de la décentralisation théâtrale, Daniel Benoin tire sa force de création du passage de l’image mentale à sa concrétisation dans le spectacle vivant par l’hybridation de savoirs multiples et de techniques artistiques. Cette étude d’un destin particulier dans un rapport holiste avec l’art dramatique permet une théorisation du processus de création dans lequel un regard croisé entre phénoménologie et pragmatique confirme l’hypothèse d’une empreinte matérielle et stylistique. L’approche comparative d’un grand nombre de représentations et de l’ensemble des répétitions préalables à cinq spectacles (Wozzeck, La Cantatrice chauve, Faces, la reprise de La Cantatrice chauve, Le roman d’un trader) définira cette empreinte comme idiosyncrasique, formelle et originale, le tout commun à l’ensemble de l’œuvre observée. Ainsi, grâce aux concours de pré-images modulables et fécondes, les images mentales primordiales s’installent au cœur de la création et la vision onirique se révèle être l’essence même de la particularité artistique de ce metteur en scène. La recherche entreprise ouvre alors des perspectives renouvelées quant à l’esthétique et à la présence/absence de l’artiste dans des domaines élargis (cinéma, danse, peinture, photographie, musique, écriture)Daniel Benoin, a contemporary stage director whose personal career was a consequence of theatrical decentralization, draws his creative strength from his ability to make mental images become concrete in live shows by using numerous knowledge and artistic techniques in a hybrid way. This project on a distinctive destiny in a holist connexion with Drama enables to theorize about the creation process in which a crossed look at phenomenology and pragmatism confirms the hypothesis of a material and stylistic imprint. The comparative approach of many performances and of all the preliminary rehearsals to five theatrical shows (Wozzeck, La Cantatrice chauve, Faces, the remake of La Cantatrice chauve, Le roman d'un trader) will eventually define this mark as an idiosyncratic, formal and original one, to be found in the whole work which was studied. Thus, thanks to the help of fertile and adjustable pre-images, essential mental images settle in the heart of creation and the oneiric vision turns out to be the very essence of the artistic particularity of this stage director. Therefore the research opens up renewed angles about the aesthetics and the presence/absence of the artist in enlarged fields (such as cinema, dancing, painting, photography, music, writing)

Full textAbstract:
L’engouement du Moyen-Âge pour le mythe troyen se traduit tout particulièrement à travers sa figure centrale, Hector. Benoît de Sainte-Maure, qui s’appuie sur la tradition homérique telle que l’a transmise la littérature latine tardive (Ilias latina, Éphéméride de la guerre de Troie de Dictys de Crète, Histoire de la destruction de Troie de Darès le Phrygien), fait du fils de Priam le héros incontesté de son œuvre, le Roman de Troie, et glorifie les exploits de ce guerrier à la prouesse exemplaire. Ce texte constitue le jalon majeur de la construction du mythe d’Hector à l’époque médiévale, dont témoignent les réécritures en prose ou en vers, même si, parallèlement, l’histoire de Troie continue d’être transmise par le texte latin de Darès ou sa traduction. À ces deux traditions s’ajoute celle qui naît de l’œuvre de l’Italien Guido delle Colonne, l’Historia destructionis Troiae, réécriture latine du roman de Benoît au XIIIe siècle. Cependant la notoriété de la figure d’Hector s’exprime aussi dans des œuvres où le personnage tend à se dissocier du destin de sa cité et apparaît seul ou associé à d’autres héros, troyens ou non, pour servir de référence en terme de bravoure, ce qui lui vaut de figurer parmi les Neuf Preux. C’est pourquoi le personnage va continuer d’évoluer indépendamment du roman de Benoît et de ses réécritures directes, ce qui se perçoit aussi bien dans la chanson de geste que dans les récits arthuriens. Les valeurs qu’il incarne intéressent aussi bien l’auteur de l’Ovide moralisé que Christine de Pizan. Figure exemplaire, presque archétypale, Hector est aussi un personnage protéiforme dont l’histoire ne cesse d’être réécrite par la tradition médiévaleIn the Middle Ages, the interest in the Trojan myth focuses particularly on its main character, Hector.Using the Homeric tradition inherited from the late Latin literature ( Ilias latina, Ephemeridos belli troiani by Dictys of Crete, De Excidio Troiae historia by Dares the Phrygian) as a basis to his work, Benoît de Sainte Maure makes Priam’s son the uncontested hero of his novel, The Roman de Troie, in which he praises the feats of this exceptional warrior.This text greatly contributes to the construction of Hector’s myth during the Middle Ages, as shown by its rewritings in prose or verse, although the story of Troy was also transmitted via Dares’ Latin text or its translation.In addition to these two traditions, another one appeared in the 13th century with the Italian Guido delle Colonne whose Historia Destructionis Troiae is a Latin rewriting of Benoît’s novel.However, Hector’s fame also asserts itself in other works in which the character tends to dissociate himself from his city’s destiny and appears alone or associated to other heroes, Trojan or not, to serve as a reference in terms of bravery, which earned him his place among the Nine Worthies.That is why this character continues to evolve independently from Benoit’s novel and its rewritings, as can be seen through epic poetry and Arthurian tales.Both Christine de Pizan and the author of Ovide moralisé take an interest in the values he embodies.Hector is a model, almost an archetypal figure as well as a character whose story never ceased being rewritten by Medieval tradition

Basata in larga parte su fonti inedite scoperte dall'autrice durante due missioni di ricerca in Etiopia, il lavoro di tesi è dedicato alle tradizioni agiografiche sulla cristianizzazione dell’Etiopia, e in particolare al ciclo agiografico dei Nove Santi – monaci di origine bizantina che, secondo la tradizione locale, avrebbero evangelizzato la popolazione del regno di Aksum tra il V e il VI secolo. Nella prima parte della tesi vengono presentate le fonti e discussi i principali problemi storici, storico-culturali e agiografici legati non solo alla presenza storica di questi santi in Etiopia e al loro effettivo contributo al processo di cristianizzazione del Paese, ma anche relativi alla composizione dei loro racconti agiografici e all'apporto che questi ultimi sono in grado di fornire per ricostruire gli eventi legati all'introduzione del cristianesimo e del monachesimo in Etiopia. Nella seconda parte vengono pubblicate le edizioni critiche di due racconti agiografici dei protagonisti di questo gruppo. / Mostly based on unpublished sources discovered by the author in the course of two fieldworks in Ethiopia, the thesis is devoted to the study of the hagiographic traditions about the Christianization of Ethiopia, with a special focus on the hagiographic cycle of the Nine Saints – Byzantine monks who, according to the local tradition, are claimed to have evangelized the population of the Aksumite kingdom between the fifth and the sixth century. In the first part of the work the sources are presented and the main historical, cultural-historical and hagiographic problems are discussed. These problems deal with the historical presence of these saints in Ethiopia, their actual contribution to the process of Christianization of the Country, the compositions of their hagiographic texts and the contribution they are able to provide to the reconstruction of the events related to the introduction of both the Christian faith and the monasticism in Ethiopia. The second part of the work offers the critical editions of two hagiographic texts about the protagonists of this group of monks.

Lugar de Trabajo: Instituto de Virología Dr. José María Vanella. Facultad de Ciencias Médicas. Universidad Nacional de Córdoba. 2019. 48 h. con Anexos. tabls.; grafs.; maps. Contiene Referencia Bibliográfica.Los virus Saint Louis encephalitis (SLEV) y West Nile (WNV) son arbovirus que se mantienen a través de la transmisión biológica vectorial entre artrópodos y vertebrados. La red de transmisión estaría integrada por mosquitos del género Culex como vectores y aves Passeriformes y Columbiformes como hospedadores. Estudios previos demuestran que un amplio número de especies de aves silvestres se encuentran expuestas a estos virus en las provincias de Chaco, Tucumán y Córdoba (Argentina). El objetivo de este trabajo fue evaluar la actividad temporal de los virus SLE y WN en comunidades de aves residentes y migratorias en un foco de transmisión enzoótico, en la localidad de La Para, Provincia de Córdoba. Las aves fueron capturadas, determinadas taxonómicamente y se obtuvo una muestra de sangre para la detección de anticuerpos neutralizantes (Ac NT) para SLEV y WNV. Se analizaron 860 muestras durante dos períodos de actividad (primavera-verano-otoño) correspondientes a los años 2013 y 2014. Con el objetivo de determinar el efecto de la estación, especie aviar y período de actividad viral sobre la presencia /ausencia de anticuerpos en aves para los virus SLE y WN, se construyeron Modelos Lineales Generalizados y se realizó la selección de los mismos en base al criterio de Información de Akaike (AIC). Se utilizaron imágenes satelitales a fin de obtener los valores medios y máximos de NDVI ( Índice de vegetación de diferencia normalizada) con el propósito de analizar el posible efecto de esta variable ambiental sobre la actividad viral. El modelo que mejor explicó la presencia/ausencia de anticuerpos para SLEV fue el de estación, pero ninguna de las variables analizadas logró explicar la presencia/ausencia de Ac NT para WNV. No se observó un efecto de los valores de NDVI sobre la presencia/ausencia de Ac NT ni sobre la seroprevalencia por estación para SLEV. El análisis serológico realizado durante este trabajo permitió detectar la actividad enzoótica y endémica para ambos virus en un parche de espinal, confirmando hallazgos de trabajos anteriores. Sin embargo, se observa una disminución de los valores de seroprevalencia para ambos virus comparando períodos previos. El SLEV presentó un pico de actividad durante el otoño de cada período. En cuanto al WNV, se observaron dos picos de actividad en el segundo período estudiado: en primavera y en otoño. La alta y constante seroprevalencia para el SLEV en Columbina picui, confirma el rol de esta especie como amplificador de este virus en este ecosistema. Las variaciones estacionales observadas podrían ser el resultado de las variaciones poblacionales típicas de los mosquitos vectores. Las diferencias observadas en el grado de exposición de las especies aviares a estos virus podría indicar la utilización de distintos mosquitos vectores por parte de estos. Este trabajo realiza un nuevo aporte al conocimiento sobre la temporalidad de los virus SLE y WNV y las especies aviares potencialmente implicadas en las redes de transmisión del sitio analizado.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter discusses the life of a little-known saint, Hadid, who resided in the Nile Delta in the thirteenth century, and some aspects of the Christian demography of the northwestern part of Lower Egypt during his life. Anba Hadid was born in Sinjar on Lake Burullus and spent most of his life as a priest in the village of Nutubis al-Rumman, located north of Fuwwa on the Rashidi branch of the Nile. He died in 1286. The seemingly unremarkable character of Hadid's life and miracles suggests that there were other local saints like him during the Islamic period whose stories are not recorded.

Full textAbstract:
The Natural Resource Condition Assessment (NRCA) Program aims to provide documentation about the current conditions of important park natural resources through a spatially explicit, multi-disciplinary synthesis of existing scientific data and knowledge. Findings from the NRCA will help Salinas Pueblo Missions National Monument (SAPU) managers to develop near-term management priorities, engage in watershed or landscape scale partnership and education efforts, conduct park planning, and report program performance (e.g., Department of the Interior’s Strategic Plan “land health” goals, Government Performance and Results Act). The objectives of this assessment are to evaluate and report on current conditions of key park resources, to evaluate critical data and knowledge gaps, and to highlight selected existing stressors and emerging threats to resources or processes. For the purpose of this NRCA, staff from the National Park Service (NPS) and Saint Mary’s University of Minnesota – GeoSpatial Services (SMUMN GSS) identified key resources, referred to as “components” in the project. The selected components include natural resources and processes that are currently of the greatest concern to park management at SAPU. The final project framework contains nine resource components, each featuring discussions of measures, stressors, and reference conditions. This study involved reviewing existing literature and, where appropriate, analyzing data for each natural resource component in the framework to provide summaries of current condition and trends in selected resources. When possible, existing data for the established measures of each component were analyzed and compared to designated reference conditions. A weighted scoring system was applied to calculate the current condition of each component. Weighted Condition Scores, ranging from zero to one, were divided into three categories of condition: low concern, moderate concern, and significant concern. These scores help to determine the current overall condition of each resource. The discussions for each component, found in Chapter 4 of this report, represent a comprehensive summary of current available data and information for these resources, including unpublished park information and perspectives of park resource managers, and present a current condition designation when appropriate. Each component assessment was reviewed by SAPU resource managers, NPS Southern Colorado Plateau Network (SCPN) staff, or outside experts. Existing literature, short- and long-term datasets, and input from NPS and other outside agency scientists support condition designations for components in this assessment. However, in some cases, data were unavailable or insufficient for several of the measures of the featured components. In other instances, data establishing reference condition were limited or unavailable for components, making comparisons with current information inappropriate or invalid. In these cases, it was not possible to assign condition for the components. Current condition was not able to be determined for six of the ten components due to these data gaps. For those components with sufficient available data, the overall condition varied. Two components were determined to be in good condition: dark night skies and paleontological resources. However, both were at the edge of the good condition range, and any small decline in conditions could shift them into the moderate concern range. Of the components in good condition, a trend could not be assigned for paleontological resources and dark night skies is considered stable. Two components (wetland and riparian communities and viewshed) were of moderate concern, with no trend assigned for wetland and riparian communities and a stable trend for viewshed. Detailed discussion of these designations is presented in Chapters 4 and 5 of this report. Several park-wide threats and stressors influence the condition of priority resources in SAPU...
