Abstract:
So compelling has been Robert Browning's voice in the literary canon that it has almost drowned out the Other voice of Elizabeth Barrett Barrett. One of the most impressive pleas to reevaluate the influence between this formidable and formidably married couple came from Flavia Alaya, who documented the mutuality of their political opinions and their shared fascination with the rescue theme. More recently, responding to the feminist wave of reevaluations of all poetic relations, of silences as well as voices, U. C. Knoepflmacher and Nina Auerbach presented some ways we might read the two poets in tandem, considering the manner in which one appropriated the other, for example, or the way their stories created a difference.

Abstract:
Robert Graves, who in his literary and artistic work combined historical legitimacy, mythology and poetic intuition, sought to create a religious concept which is capable of responding to the moral and spiritual expectations of the modern man, and this expectation found its ideal embodiment in his conceptual idea of the Great Goddess. Like other sensitive followers of the Great Goddess, Robert Graves once saw the awakening of the universal spirit. Many poets, such as Robert Graves, William Butler Yates, Aleister Crowley, Ezra Pound, presented themselves as apostles of the Great God, although they could not pass through the abyss of the phenomenal world, drowned in the waters of their own reflections and spirituality, and became instruments of the Great Goddess. In the Graves' concept, the supposed Great Goddess represents the Divine Child as the fruit of a ''mysterious marriage'' in unity with the other half of this child as the unity of opposites, and the new God, symbolized by the Black Goddess (black and white, expresses intelligence),it will create a new state of consciousness. The Black Goddess must assimilate opposites in the human psyche, in other words, a harmonious substitution will take place. Although Robert Graves came up with an important concept related to the new religion, new consciousness, new world order, he is not optimistic about the development of humanity and the transition to a new religion.

Abstract:
Abstract In 1970, J.G. Ballard used a London gallery as a laboratory in which to test ideas he was toying with, ideas that eventually found their way into his 1973 novel, Crash. Ballard found that art and literature were a fecund combination. Considering the richness of his imagery and the complexity of his ideas, it is not surprising that Ballard’s works have gone on to inspire artistic responses. Perhaps the most well known of these is Robert Smithson’s masterpiece, Spiral Jetty, 1970. However, most works inspired by Ballard’s writing respond to vague notions of things Ballardian rather than to a particular novel or short story. In this essay I will focus specifically on recent contemporary Australian artworks which were made in direct response to Ballard’s 1962 novel, The Drowned World, for a 2015 exhibition I initiated and coordinated titled Mapping The Drowned World. Using my own artworks as examples, as well as work made by fellow Australian artists Roy Ananda, Jon Cattapan and Janet Tavener, I will demonstrate that art and Ballard’s literature continue to make a great synergistic team: together they produce more than the sum of their parts.

Abstract:
Embodiment of apocalyptic imagination has been a major theme in which many writers have pointed it out especially from the midst of twentieth century onwards. Earth today is vulnerable and would be so dangerous for future generation from now on. Although, J. G. Ballard's narrations do not create an ordinary apocalyptic apprehension of human abolition, but he enters the core of the apocalyptic theme by intertwining our world with an altering people's psyche who try to develop a new relationship with nature. This paper examines Ballard's The Drowned World (1962) from the view of the human psyche in an apocalyptic setting. It follows and analyzes the characters of Dr. Robert Kerans (a biologist) and his team in which they are transformed in the story – both mentally and physically

Abstract:
A British independent bet its future on proving that fractured basement formations could produce large amounts of oil and gas. Based on its first two wells, the proposition that these highly fractured layers of awful-quality reservoir rock can produce billions of barrels of oil is looking very unlikely, but there might be something of value down there. Last April, Hurricane Energy predicted those two development wells could easily produce 17,000 B/D of oil from rock it said held “half a billion barrels of oil.” Now Hurricane’s ambitious plans and its identity as “basement reservoir specialists” are in tatters. The initial wells were productive but much of what was coming out of the lower one - 205/21a-7z - was water. After 8 months of production the water cut reached 46% from a well that was supposed to be hundreds of meters above the boundary between the oil and water aquifer. That was not the only evidence suggesting there was something wrong with the plan to develop discoveries in the Lancaster field along Rona Ridge in the West of Shetland area. On 8 June, Hurricane’s founder and Chief Executive Officer Robert Trice, a geologist with a keen interest in fractured basement rock, resigned, and the company launched a review of the technical work underlying the plan. Experts were added to the subsurface team, which then made major changes. The most significant change pushed up the depth of the contact point between the oil and water levels by around 300 m, within 1 m below the toe of the lower well. In other words, three-quarters of the reservoir in the original plan was under water. The presentation by Beverley Smith, the company’s interim chief executive officer, was a reminder of how a long-term production test can change a reservoir model, even one based on years of work and the drilling of multiple wells. “Let me start by reminding everyone that we are dealing with a unique and challenging reservoir that was always subject to great uncertainty and where data acquisition has long been problematic,” Smith said. Lowered Expectations Hurricane’s remaining Lancaster well (205/21a-6) is producing more than 12,000 B/D, providing critical cash flow for the company, whose future looks altogether different than it did in the days when it predicted its discoveries could potentially produce 2.6 billion bbl of oil, making it the largest undeveloped resource base in the UK Continental Shelf (UKCS).

Abstract:
Robert Scott Duncanson, who lived and worked primarily in Cincinnati, Ohio, but also in Michigan, Canada, and Europe, was one of only a few known African-American landscape painters in the 19th century, and one of even fewer to gain a regional, national, and international reputation. His Blue Hole, Flood Waters, Little Miami River (1851) is painted in a style typical of the Hudson River school: a panoramic view of a quiet and apparently pristine wilderness, known then as a popular beauty spot near Cincinnati (Figure 1). The dense forest that encloses the pool, with broken timber around the edges and two drowned branches projecting above the surface of the water, implies isolation and ruggedness. The small, slightly ragged youths fishing in the foreground, though, are more than generic props; they are an image of the desired effect of nature on the often socially mixed residents of the river bottoms, and of Cincinnati in general. The rustic fisherman absorbed and at ease amid a rugged Western landscape loses himself in nature, but instead of making him wild, the experience refines as it acts “But to bind him to his native mountains more.” The image of the two men – as, for example, opposed to figures of genteel tourists – embedded in their native lakes and forests offered reassurance and evidence to local boosters of the positive impact of nature. Nature, in this concept, exerted a softening, soothing influence on those who experienced it, akin to women's moral influence on those within the domestic sphere.

Abstract:
The article is dedicated to lay people who died an "unexpected death", in other words, those who did not have possibility to make confession before their death. In this heterogeneous group, the composition of which underwent certain changes in the early modern period, were those who drowned or were killed by lightning as well as victims of robbers, and, of course, suicides. Christian burial was possible for them only after a positive decision by the diocesan bishop, which the latter took either after a detailed study of the case by the parish priest or based on the results of a petition submitted by relatives of the deceased (for suicides, such a positive decision could be made if it turned out that the suicide was committed in madness). Of course, the main task of the researcher was to obtain direct and indirect evidence of suicides. The data on Vologda analyzed in the article relates to the 17th century, that for Veliky Ustyug concerns the 18th century. Despite the fact that suicide was criminalized in secular law in the 1715 Military article, the 17th-century Vologda cases turn out to be similar to the 18th-century Veliky Ustyug ones. In both cases, the parish clergy preferred to "negotiate" with the families of the victims, which minimized the number of refusals to Christian burial.

Abstract:
In Sheridan Le Fanu's 1872short story“Green Tea,”the Reverend Mr. Robert Lynder Jennings becomes obsessively engaged in a potentially subversive research project on ancient pagans, and finds himself experimenting with green tea as a stimulant to sharpen his mind, boost his productivity, and maintain his stamina through long, sleepless nights bent over books. One day, while riding an omnibus, Jennings sees two piercing deep red eyes staring at him, and gradually realises that they belong to a small black monkey, which was “pushing its face forward in mimicry to meet mine” (23). At first fancying the creature to be the “ugly pet” (23) of a fellow traveller, Jennings attempts to ascertain the monkey's mood, and “poked my umbrella softly towards it. It remained immovable – up to it –throughit!” (23–24). Gradually, he becomes convinced of the creature's demonic nature, and this grinning, screeching vision persecutes Jennings for the rest of his days, sitting on his books and interrupting him while he studies, shrieking curses and blasphemies to drown out his prayers, soliciting him to perform evil acts, and finally, commanding him to commit suicide, which he does, slitting his own throat with a single-edged razor. In the final analysis offered by Jennings's physician and confidant, the metaphysical doctor Martin Hesselius, a significant contributing cause to Jennings's nightmarish experience was his gradual self-poisoning by green tea.

Abstract:
Bangladesh, with an area of 147 thousand km2 and population of 149.78 million, is prone to natural hazards (PHC, 2011). The objectives of the study were to determine the climatic parameter specially temperature and rainfall pattern, assess hazard, vulnerability and adaptation to climate change. Assessment was made during April to June 2013 in char areas of Kazipur upazila under Sirajgonj district. Primary data were collected through Focus Group Discussions and direct observation of the researcher. Secondary data were collected from various publications of government and non-government agencies. Workshops were also conducted at union and upazila level to justify, validate and improve the findings from village levels discussion. Major vulnerabilities faced by the char (island) people were drown of children and old people, lack of safe drinking water, close institutions, crackdown of embankments and roads, river erosion, stagnant water, infertility of cultivable lands, deposits and on crop field, submerse of crops, float away of fishes from ponds, PPR disease of goats, sell cattle at lower price, migration, increase abduction and robbery, increase lightning and cold wave. The major adaptation practiced by the char people was raise homesteads, articulate extra pipes with the tube wells, repair embankments and roads, plant tree seedlings, cultivate advanced crops, vegetables in floating beds, drought tolerant crops, cold wave tolerant and early maturity crop, vaccinate the cattle, drill deep tube wells and reserve fodder (CVCA, 2012).DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/jesnr.v7i2.22205 J.

Abstract:
Dr. Robert Wilkie should have been a happy man. He was exactly what he wanted to be in life, an emergency physician and hospitalist in a small, close-knit community. His work was a source of pride and pleasure, as were his religious community, his family and ice hockey, the sport he played growing up in Canada. Yes, Dr. Wilkie should have been a happy man, and for the most part, he was. Yet an undertow of melancholy always tugged at him. He usually kept his head above water, but sometimes the tug was so strong he feared he might drown, and this fear would set off a severe bout of anxiety and agitation.

Abstract:
This chapter argues for a robust prevention effort for substance use disorders. It briefly explains how the 1971 war on drugs began and guided (or misguided) our nation’s efforts to combat this illness. It laments how the potentially monumental 2016 surgeon general’s report on substance use in America was drowned out by the presidential election and how its call for empirically supported prevention strategies was ignored.
