Abstract:
The article is devoted to the little-known literary work of the American cartoonist Jay Norwood Darling. The current study was conducted on the travelogues “Ding Goes to Russia” (1932) and “The Cruise of the Bouncing Betsy. A Trailer Travelogue” (1937). This article aims to reveal and contextualize the features of J.N. Darling’s travel texts as peripheral genres. The main objective of this work is to analyze the deep structures of the travelogues chronotope, based on which the hypothesis will be put forward. Its essence is that the intensity of the crisis time experience in different spaces and through these spaces modifies the involved genre clichés, giving rise to a tragic (for Soviet space) and optimistic (for American space) premonition. The research methodology is based on the study of the interaction between the centre and periphery of the literary system, in particular, the concept of “semiosphere” formulated by Yu. Lotman. Genre analysis includes comparative and contextual methods of studying texts. The cultural-historical method deepens the understanding of the context of Darling’s literary work. Particularly, it is used to discover the historical and social factors that impact the peculiarities of others and one’s own world perception and image reconstruction. Genre analysis of travelogues with various graphic components, including caricatures, involves an intermedia method of studying the semantic connections between visual and verbal in travelogues. The examination of Darling’s travelogues “Ding Goes to Russia” and “The Cruise of the Bouncing Betsy. A Trailer Travelogue”, which inherited different genre traditions, revealed their conceptual and poetic affinities. In both texts, the author investigates the common issues of civilization and its advancement, as well as the significance of technological progress for a human being. The features of the unmanifested future or hidden phenomena of the present are felt more strongly at a distance from the centre, at the intersection of transit paths. Geography in these travels is perceived through anthropological optics, implemented, among other things, through the concepts of the mutual influence of society and space in an unstable world. The experience of alienation is constructed through images of places displayed identically in both travelogues. In Darling’s travelogues, places outside of symbolic meaning come to the fore of the spatio-temporal structure. According to the concept of M. Auger, their features can be attributed to non-places. The key features of the chronotope of both travelogues are the peripheralization of space, the transformation of places into space, and the related process, the representation of non-places. The caricaturists’ texts exhibit genre peripherality through the dual nature of their poetic codes. Behind the secondary nature of the genre constructions of both texts, one cannot help but see individual searches reflected in the unique role and methods of spatial metaphors and imaginary topoi explication. Their semantic and visual density force us to recall and re-estimate the factual writing of the cartoonist in the context of future genre development.

Abstract:
AbstractWith origins in post-war development thinking, the core–periphery concept has spread across the social and, increasingly, the natural sciences. Initially reflecting divergent socioeconomic properties of geographical regions, its relational connotations rapidly led to more topological interpretations. In today's network science, the standard core–periphery model consists of a cohesive set of core actors and a peripheral set of internally disconnected actors. Exploring the classical core–periphery literature, this paper finds conceptual support for the characteristic intra-categorical density differential. However, this literature also lends support to the notions of peripheral dependency and core dominance, power-relational aspects that existing approaches do not capture. To capture such power-relations, this paper suggests extensions to the correlation-based core–periphery metric of Borgatti and Everett (2000). Capturing peripheral dependency and, optionally, core dominance, these extensions allow for either measuring the degree of such power-relational features in given core–periphery partitions, or as part of a criteria function to search for power-relational core–periphery structures. Applied to the binary and valued citation data in Borgatti and Everett (2000), the proposed extensions seemingly capture dependency and dominance features of core–periphery structures. This is particularly evident when, circling back to the original domains of the concept, examining the network of European commodity trade in 2010.

Abstract:
Many inducible genes in yeast are targeted to the nuclear pore complex when active. We find that the peripheral localization of the INO1 and GAL1 genes is regulated through the cell cycle. Active INO1 and GAL1 localized at the nuclear periphery during G1, became nucleoplasmic during S-phase, and then returned to the nuclear periphery during G2/M. Loss of peripheral targeting followed the initiation of DNA replication and was lost in cells lacking a cyclin-dependent kinase (Cdk) inhibitor. Furthermore, the Cdk1 kinase and two Cdk phosphorylation sites in the nucleoporin Nup1 were required for peripheral targeting of INO1 and GAL1. Introduction of aspartic acid residues in place of either of these two sites in Nup1 bypassed the requirement for Cdk1 and resulted in targeting of INO1 and GAL1 to the nuclear periphery during S-phase. Thus, phosphorylation of a nuclear pore component by cyclin dependent kinase controls the localization of active genes to the nuclear periphery through the cell cycle.

Abstract:
We investigate the explosive synchronization in networks with core-periphery structure. The effects of different patterns of core-periphery networks on explosive synchronization are studied by altering network structural parameters. With the variation of two core-periphery structural parameters, the relative connection strength between core and peripheral nodes, and the relative connection strength among peripheral nodes, we find distinct roles played by structural parameters in the path toward explosive synchronization. Our results show that the order parameter of periphery is closer to that of the core in the synchronization phase with the increment of connections between core and peripheral nodes. In addition, we find that sparser the connections among peripheral nodes are, the easier the whole dynamic network is to reach explosive synchronization. We also discover that if the number of connections between core and periphery scales vary sublinearly with the network size, there exists a novel two-jump behavior of the order parameter of the whole network. Moreover, as the level of the sublinearity increases, the order parameter starts to oscillate in a decaying manner, rather than being increasing monotonically and slowly as in the case of normal explosive synchronization when the coupling strength exceeds a critical threshold. Hence in this regime, it becomes increasingly difficult for the network to maintain stable explosive synchronization even though the underlying network topology is connected.

Abstract:
A study is made of industrialization and the transition in economic structure as it has affected a remote peripheral region of Finland with a predominantly resource‑based economy over the last twenty years or so. The empirical resultsare used to interpret and develop theory of regional development adequate for describing the transition of this peripheral region from an area dominated by primary‑sector production to one characterized by industry and the service sec­tor. The resource‑based peripheral region concerned is the province of Northern Karelia. A region‑level core‑periphery system is outlined in which the organization of the economy, the division of labour, performance potential and environmental relations are examined by regional and spatial analysis and resource analysis. A model is developed for evaluating the performance potential of an economy and proposing alternative paths of development. Development in a periphery is regulated by external impulses (demand, regional policy, etc.) together with the distinctive features imposed on the economy by its past history. This development can be explained by reference to rationaliza­tion in resource processing sectors, profitability difficulties, poor growth propen­sity and special characteristics of the division of labour and the adoption of new technology. The combined effect of these factors, termed here the periphery syn­drome, leads to differences in affluence and in general to regional differentia­tion in the economy. The syndrome is dynamic in nature. The principal problems following the economic transition are shifting away from rationalization in agricul­ture and towards the structure of industry itself. The resource periphery is be­coming an industrial periphery. The conclusions comprise a set of eight conceptual systems of factors which should be taken into account when studying economic transition and industriali­zation in peripheral regions. These concern development with respect to popula­tion, rationalization, regional policy, the spatial division of labour, spatial cost structures, demand, entrepreneurship and resource and environment factors and the influence of these on regional development in the periphery in question. The differences in development between the sectors of industry are of sig­nificance for regional development as a whole, and allowance should be made for these in the theory. Where theories of development in resource peripheries tend to represent outcomes of a number of external and internal factors and ones applying to individual sectors, the explanatory model evolved here comprises theo­retical concepts of a number of different types.

Full text
Abstract:
Peripheral exudative hemorrhagic chorioretinopathy (PEHCR) is relatively rare and especially less known and therefore less often diagnosed condition of the retina periphery predominantly in patients of higher age. Usually temporal periphery is affected. The finding is bilateral in approximately 30 %. Clinically it manifests by multibulbar prominences in periphery, which can sometimes resemble choroidal melanoma. It concerns exudations and hemorrhages under retina (sub-retinal) or under retinal pigment epithelium (sub-RPE). Within weeks or months hemorrhagy is resorbed and flattened and chorioretinal atrophy of various grade remains in affected area, sometimes combined with retinal fibrosis. If the affected area remains limited to the periphery, the central visual acuity does not have to be reduced. Affection is considered to be peripheral form of wet age-related macular degeneration or peripheral form of idiopathic polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy. By differential diagnosis is necessary to exclude especially malignant choroidal melanoma and choroidal detachment. Case report: Own case of 83 years old patient with bilateral PEHCR is described and photo documented. Creation of new prominence - fresh bleeding under retina and RPE in superior periphery – had been captured. Photo documentation of lesion in early stage and in stage of resorbtion after several weeks. Affected areas remained limited to periphery and did not have influence on central vision. That was influenced by degeneration of macula and vitreomacular traction syndrome with distinct epiretinal membrane. Conclusion: PEHCR is less frequent or less diagnosed condition of the retina periphery in old patients. Ongoing exudation and sub-retinal or sub-RPE bleeding. Within weeks heals with chorioretinal scars and subretinal fibrosis. Central vision does not have to be damaged, if lesions do not spread to macula.

Abstract:
Lowering the level of spatial socio-economic disparities of territorial development and ensuring the high living standards for population and business environment development are the main key tasks in terms of reforming the administrative and territorial regulation and financial decentralization in Ukraine. This raises the issue of the center and periphery interactions among the dominant ones in the conditions of the socio-economic space development of the country and requires delineation of the influence zones of the centers and activating features of adaptive and stimulating roles, which they perform as "growth poles" and innovative shifts generators in territorial development. The methodological apparatus of the research consists of the general scientific methods for the development of theoretical and methodological foundations of the central and peripheral interactions in the region and the system approach for identification of social benefits of conceptual priorities in the center and periphery interactions in conditions of administrative and financial decentralization. The scientific approaches to the definition of categories "center-periphery" are investigated. The need to outline the dual nature of center-periphery interactions as a phenomenon is emphasized. The comparative characteristics of the center, the semi-periphery, and the periphery are presented. The essence of the center-peripheral interactions in the region is defined as a process of direct or indirect mutual influence of the center and the periphery in the conditions of spatial inequality and socio-economic differentiation of regional development. The classification of the center-periphery interactions in the territorial dimension is proposed. Further research suggests focusing on the substantiation of theoretical and methodological foundations of center and periphery interactions and levels of such interaction in the region in terms of administrative and financial decentralization.

Full text
Abstract:
The definition of the periphery can be made in in different ways, based on the concepts emphisized in different theoretical discussions. Correspondingly, different peripheries appear in Europe from the perspectives of these different definitions. The thesis puts forward five different definitions of the periphery
definition of the periphery based on income and income growth differentials
definition of the periphery by using economic structure, employment and population potentials
definition of the periphery based on welfare conditions
definition of the periphery based on externalities
and definition of the periphery based on endogenous growth dynamics. All these definitions produce different core-periphery maps of Europe. The evidence is based on the use of cluster analysis to identify different groups of regions homogenous in terms of variables that belong to every one of these five definitions. The result confirms that there are different peripheries in Europe. One region that is categorised as core can fall into a peripheral group in a different clasification. This shows that there is not only one type of periphery in Europe, but that different peripheries appear in case of the usage of different variables. The thesis also argues that there is a need for regional policies that do not the define the periphery as a homogenous area by considering only income differentials, but that identifies different peripheries that have different needs and problems, and devise instruments accordingly.

Abstract:
The archaeological remains at Hacienda Tabi provide an opportunity to study the effects of large-scale societal changes on the lives of the Maya who worked on the hacienda. The households, represented by the ruins of the worker’s village surrounding the main hacienda grounds, were at the core of late colonial/independence era Maya life. These households were subject to the forces of acculturation that accompanied the rise and supremacy of the hacienda system during the late eighteenth century. Archaeological excavations at Hacienda Tabi have revealed a re-orientation of social organization during this period. Prior to the formation of the hacienda system, domestic and social organization focused on kinship and extended family subsistence organization. Social status, wealth, and power in pre-hacienda communities were predicated on issues of age, sex, and familial rank within both the extended family and community. The hacienda system brought about fundamental changes in the organization and relations of production. These changes, e.g. the separation of producer from the means of production and commodity based production versus subsistence based production, changed the basis and therefore the form of Yucatecan social organization. Under the new system, the nuclear family rather than the extended family or community became the prime unit of social organization. In the hacienda community status was based on occupation and one’s place within the newly established labor hierarchy. The changing realities of social organization found under the hacienda system are reflected in the settlement patterns and material remains of the workers’ village at Hacienda Tabi. The material culture and types of housing excavated and recorded at Tabi underscore the inequalities engendered within the hacienda system of production. The research conducted at Hacienda Tabi has illuminated the changes associated with Yucatan’s articulation into the greater world system.

Abstract:
Due to the advanced state which Gaelic-English language shift has reached in Scotland, Gaelic learners are now increasingly recognised as having a central role in reversing this process. The present detailed study of adult learners of Scottish Gaelic was undertaken in order to provide an overview of the contemporary world of the Gaelic learner with particular reference to reversing language shift [RLS]. The infrastructure for Gaelic learning is investigated in detail. It is shown that the present facilities for learning the language and for attracting learners tend to be limited, ad-hoc, fragmented and uncoordinated with several significant gaps in provision and with no overall framework or strategic direction. The weaknesses of the Gaelic learning infrastructure have been reflected in the fact that very few Gaelic learners reach fluency. The social identity of the Gaelic learner is investigated next, looking at the position of the learner within the Gaelic speech community and linking this to the question of RLS. It is argued that the learner occupies a somewhat ambiguous social standing within this community, creating both advantages and disadvantages for the individual learner, but offering many advantages from the point of view of RLS. A large scale questionnaire survey of Gaelic learners was undertaken as part of the study, investigating the social background and motivation of learners, their attitudes towards their language and their impact on regenerating the language. In addition to supporting the arguments made both with regard to the Gaelic learning infrastructure and social identity of learners, it can be shown that learners bring many positive benefits to RLS efforts, including enthusiasm, knowledge of Gaelic issues, pro-Gaelic views, strong motivations for learning, and the provision of a market for Gaelic related goods and services. However, the potential for learners at act as significant force in RLS is not currently being fulfilled due to high average age of learners and the failure of a large majority to reach fluency.

Full text
Abstract:
Community-based tourism (CBT) is widely accepted as an effective facilitator of sustainable development that reduces exploitation and brings about benefits for local communities in the least developed and remote areas. However, whilst CBT can be a catalyst for local income and employment generation, its contribution to improving local development is often overestimated and inaccurately identified. This is in part because development and its measurement are mainly assessed by non-locals who do not adequately take into account the opinions of residents. There is increasing concern that most of the impetus and funding for CBT, and its ongoing product viability, is attributable to Western “experts” and development agencies, and that far too little attention has been paid to local perspectives, empowerment, and knowledge. With regard to a CBT context, there is presently no study that adequately explores the local community’s perception of “development”; how CBT contributes to achieving that development; what factors facilitate or inhibit CBT to this effect; and how CBT can be improved so that it serves more effectively to promote development. Additionally, most studies focus on destinations in the classic periphery and neglect the fact that many CBT projects are found in the dynamic interface between the periphery and the rapidly expanding semi-periphery regions that represent the frontier of contemporary economic development in emerging economies such as Viet Nam. Importantly, this interface functions as a gateway to large tourist numbers, indicating a potential relationship between CBT – traditionally considered a manifestation of alternative tourism – and mass tourism.

Full text
Abstract:
Aldo Rossi’s L’archittetura della citta (The Architecture of the City) has proven to be one of the most influential architecture manifestoes of the 20th century. Written against the backdrop of the CIAM and Functionalism it offered a theory of the elements that constitute the architecture of the city. Rafael Moneo writes: “As a critic no one can question the insightful value of Rossi’s oeuvre. From the knowledge of the ancient city it has been possible to make a critique of modern urbanism that has shown its terrible gaps and, therefore, the role that the ancient city has played as an antidote to that has been of prime importance. This has been his most important contribution to the development of current urban thinking.” The last chapter of Rossi’s book emphasizes the importance of investigating the peripheries of the European city, and offers a starting point for this thesis. Moreover, according to Rossi there is a clear relationship between architectural theory and the project, and this thesis explores this assertion in the context of the city of Madrid. No other European city has undergone a similar scale of development in recent years regarding peripheral and infrastructural development. Picking up from Rossi’s final chapter, this thesis asks whether it is possible to establish a theory of the architecture of the periphery of the European city. To arrive at such a theory, Rossi’s methodology, developed for his reading of the traditional city, needs to be supplemented and developed. Here, this work will be started by drawing on the contribution of Rossi’s contemporaries Robert Venturi and Denise Scott-Brown (Learning from Las Vegas ). The gaps left in the theory also requires new approaches for the methodology and its application, and fieldwork techniques are used here that embrace other forms of exploring these territories, including walking and visual tools such as photography, in order to map, and to analyse and understand, these environments. This PhD uses fieldwork to look at different areas developed to the North and South of Madrid, in combination with architectural theory, in order to describe, analyse and understand the architecture of the periphery, and to define the gaps between architectural theory and project. In addition to this understanding of the architecture of the periphery, the thesis also makes a methodological contribution, developing practical and analytical tools and building a theory that offers new ways of analysing other European peripheries.

Abstract:
It has been known since the classic work of Wertheim (1891) that visual resolution in the periphery falls off so rapidly that at 20° of eccentricity acuity is reduced by the factor 10 relative to the fovea. Although optical quality deteriorates somewhat in the periphery, evidently a broad range of spatial frequencies may be present but not resolvable in the peripheral retinal image. One wonders what role, if any, these image components play in peripheral vision. During experiments designed to measure resolution in the periphery it became evident that this band of frequencies was more a range of confusion than a range of invisibility. When confronted with a grating well above the resolution limit, subjects were confident that a spatial pattern was present because they could perceive contrast. With practice it became possible for some individuals to perceive, for a fixed stimulus, a cavalcade of gratings of rapidly changing orientation and relatively low spatial frequency. This perceptual ambiguity vanished when the stimulus frequency was reduced to a value near the accepted limit for grating resolution. The most likely explanation for these observations is aliasing caused by the relatively low sampling density of neurons in peripheral retina.

Full text
Abstract:
Shifts in perceived spatial frequency as a function of contrast obtained at 0° and 8° eccentricity of the visual field show that the direction of the shifts may not be constant throughout the range of frequencies tested. The perceived frequency of a grating viewed in the periphery, however, always appears to be of higher frequency than one viewed in the fovea. A multiple-channel model which incorporates retinal inhomogeneity may account for these results. Factors such as (1) receptive field size, (2) perceptual spatial frequency labels attached to the ouputs of mechanisms, (3) relative sensitivity of peripheral mechanisms compared with foveal mechanisms, and (4) relative steepness and nonlinearity of contrast transfer functions following the output of peripheral mechanisms compared with foveal mechanisms, can all influence the appearance of visual patterns. Shifts predicted by larger receptive field sizes in the periphery are consistent with the data whereas those predicted by lower spatial frequencies of perceptual labels in the periphery are not. (The other two factors have only a small effect.)

Full text
Abstract:
We have compared color discrimination thresholds for long-wavelength spectral lights presented to the fovea and to the peripheral retina. Results obtained in the fovea are similar to those obtained by other investigators. Threshold increases as the test wavelength is increased. The slope of the threshold-versus-wavelength function decreases as the stimulus field is moved further into the periphery. Peripheral thresholds are significantly higher on a blue background bright enough to desensitize rods, but they are not bright enough to raise foveal thresholds, suggesting that rod signals contribute to the peripheral thresholds. However, the shapes of the threshold-versus-wavelength functions obtained on the background differ in the fovea and the periphery, suggesting that differences between foveal and peripheral functions are not produced entirely by rods. Foveal and peripheral functions are similar in shape if the peripheral thresholds are obtained with a larger test field.

Abstract:
The peripheral areas of Tirana have witnessed a significant development in recent years, reflecting the rapid urbanisation of the city and population growth. The expansion of the city, especially after the 1990s, combined with insufficient legislation to regulate territorial growth, has led to the emergence of informal settlements on the outskirts of Tirana. Consequently, a double city has been formed, with differences between the center and the periphery in terms of urban structures, types of development, resident population, etc. Despite this, it should be noted that the peripheral regions are closely connected to Tirana and are considered an important part of the city's urban structure. Since the suburbs are not separated from the core of the city, it is difficult to tell where they begin and end. Therefore the exact definition of a suburb still remains a question: what exactly constitutes a suburb and how does it differ from the city center in terms of characteristics? This study aims to redefine the concept of the periphery based on different theoretical frameworks and identify the peripheral areas of Tirana through a Geographic Information System (GIS) anal- ysis to determine their distinctive features. By explaining the concept of the periphery, this thesis presents a comprehensive and detailed un- derstanding of the periphery and related terms. Also, the thesis presents an innovative approach by developing an integrated matrix of indicators that will be integrated into the GIS system, serv- ing as a tool for similar studies in Albania. The objective of the study is to provide guidance to planning institutions and stakeholders, wheth- er public or private, to identify peripheral areas and implement appropriate policies and strategies for their sustainable development.

Davis, Elizabeth Thorpe. "Modeling shifts in perceived spatial frequency between the fovea and periphery." In OSA Annual Meeting. Washington, D.C.: Optica Publishing Group, 1987. http://dx.doi.org/10.1364/oam.1987.wt5.

Full text
Abstract:
Reported frequency shifts between the fovea and periphery1 are quantitatively modeled here using data for spatially localized stimuli; test stimuli were presented in either the superior or inferior visual fields. The model assumes a set of frequency channels in which a nonlinear contrast transfer function (CTF) follows the output of each channel and the labeled channel outputs are combined in a weighted average. Frequency tuning, overall sensitivity, and nonlinearity of CTFs for a set of channels are assumed to change as a function of visual field eccentricity. Parameter values for these factors were based on published reports2 or on measurements obtained for observers tested previously in the frequency shift paradigm. Theoretical predictions using the latter parameter estimates produce closer fits to the data. Furthermore, although frequency shifts were slightly larger for test stimuli presented in the superior than inferior visual field, these differences are not significant. Parameter estimates for superior vs inferior visual fields of these observers also do not differ significantly. However, an important question remains: Why don’t observers perform like ideal observers and perhaps alter the perceptual frequency labels of peripheral mechanisms to eliminate frequency shifts between fovea and periphery?

Full text
Abstract:
Those familiar only with regular sampling theory must be somewhat surprised by recent research reports of the recognition of supra-Nyquist signals in near-peripheral vision and the detection of more peripheral sub-Nyquist signals by aliased energy.1 Although in the first case the recognition could be based on the information in sub-Nyquist aliases and in the second case subsampling at later stages is possible, both effects are also consistent with irregular sampling and different detection mechanisms for the different regions. In particular, if we assume that detection is based on sensor units with Gabor-functionlike receptive fields, we can simply include units tuned to supra-Nyquist frequencies in the near periphery but omit high-frequency sub-Nyquist units in the far periphery. This argument also requires highly irregular sampling in the far periphery to scatter aliasing noise to lower frequency units. A quantitative assessment of these arguments is based on computer simulations of signal and noise output as a function of sensor unit parameters and sampling array irregularity.

Full text
Abstract:
Peripheral contrast thresholds have been measured in many stimulus conditions, and the effect of the cortical magnification factor on sine wave grating detection thresholds is well known. Very little, however, has been done to determine the behavior of suprathreshold contrast perception in the periphery. In the experiments described here, perceived contrast functions were determined for 2° sine wave grating patches of 2,4, 8, and 16 cycles-/deg at the fovea and at four peripheral locations using the method of magnitude estimation. The peripheral locations were distributed over the range of eccentricities for which each stimulus was visible (e.g., 0-40° at 4 cycles/deg and 0-10° at 16 cycles/deg). Experimental results demonstrate two main points: (1) When perceived contrast values at a given spatial frequency are combined across eccentricities, the data are well fitted (R2 ≃ 0.9) by a single power function of contrast minus threshold with an exponent near 0.5. This same equation describes the data, at all spatial frequencies studied, implying that similar mechanisms mediate contrast perception in fovea and periphery at both low and high spatial frequencies. (2) While suprathreshold behavior of the 2° grating patches remains remarkably uniform in the fovea and periphery, thresholds increase dramatically with eccentricity. This implies that contrast perception and contrast detection may be mediated by different mechanisms.
