This study explored the organization of the semantic field and the conceptual structure of moving experiences by investigating German-language expressions referring to the emotional state of being moved. We used present and past participles of eight psychological verbs as primes in a free word-association task, as these grammatical forms place their conceptual focus on the eliciting situation and on the felt emotional state, respectively. By applying a taxonomy of basic knowledge types and computing the Cognitive Salience Index, we identified joy and sadness as key emotional ingredients of being moved, and significant life events and art experiences as main elicitors of this emotional state. Metric multidimensional scaling analyses of the semantic field revealed that the core terms designate a cluster of emotional states characterized by low degrees of arousal and slightly positive valence, the latter due to a nearly balanced representation of positive and negative elements in the conceptual structure of being moved.
'Provinzielle Weite' ist eine Formulierung, die eine Spannweite aufzumachen gedenkt zwischen einem Verständnis von Provinz/provinziell als beschränkter, statischer, nicht weltoffener Lebens- und Denkweise und einer zwar peripheren Position, die aber gleichwohl gesellschaftliche und mentale Veränderungen sensibel wahrnimmt und künstlerische, technische und wissenschaftliche Innovationen in ihrer ganzen "Weite" zu registrieren und produktiv zu verarbeiten weiß. Im besten Fall kann es sogar geschehen, dass die Provinz die Chance des weit Abgelegenen nutzt, die dort gegebenen Spielräume und Eigenheiten produktiv zu wenden, um damit sogar ins Zentrum zurückzuwirken. Mit dieser Schlusswendung und der Nennung eines Zentrums wird in das Begriffsfeld "provinzielle Weite" eingestandenermaßen eine Denkfigur eingeführt, die mit dem Begriffspaar Peripherie und Zentrum umschrieben ist. Der [...] Abschnitt wird sich allein auf Kerner in Weinsberg konzentrieren, um das erstaunliche Phänomen zu erörtern, auf welche Weise es Justinus Kerner gelang, mit geschärftem Bewusstsein in der Provinz und weitab von der großen Hauptstadt zu leben und doch eine selten erreichte, weltoffene, internationale Plattform errichten zu können, kurz, wie es Kerner schaffte, die weite Welt in der Provinz Weinsberg zu implantieren.
The ALICE Collaboration at the LHC reports measurement of the inclusive production cross section of electrons from semi-leptonic decays of beauty hadrons with rapidity |y| < 0.8 and transverse momentum 1 < pT < 10 GeV/c, in pp collisions at √s = 2.76 TeV. Electrons not originating from semi-electronic decay of beauty hadrons are suppressed using the impact parameter of the corresponding tracks. The production cross section of beauty decay electrons is compared to the result obtained with an alternative method which uses the distribution of the azimuthal angle between heavy-flavour decay electrons and charged hadrons. Perturbative QCD predictions agree with the measured cross section within the experimental and theoretical uncertainties. The integrated visible cross section, σb→e = 3.47 ± 0.40(stat) +1.12 −1.33(sys) ± 0.07(norm) μb, was extrapolated to full phase space using Fixed Order plus Next-to-Leading Log (FONLL) calculations to obtain the total bb production ¯ cross section, σbb¯ = 130 ± 15.1(stat) +42.1 −49.8(sys) +3.4 −3.1(extr) ± 2.5(norm) ± 4.4(BR) μb.
Ursine bears are a mammalian subfamily that comprises six morphologically and ecologically distinct extant species. Previous phylogenetic analyses of concatenated nuclear genes could not resolve all relationships among bears, and appeared to conflict with the mitochondrial phylogeny. Evolutionary processes such as incomplete lineage sorting and introgression can cause gene tree discordance and complicate phylogenetic inferences, but are not accounted for in phylogenetic analyses of concatenated data. We generated a high-resolution data set of autosomal introns from several individuals per species and of Y-chromosomal markers. Incorporating intraspecific variability in coalescence-based phylogenetic and gene flow estimation approaches, we traced the genealogical history of individual alleles. Considerable heterogeneity among nuclear loci and discordance between nuclear and mitochondrial phylogenies were found. A species tree with divergence time estimates indicated that ursine bears diversified within less than 2 My. Consistent with a complex branching order within a clade of Asian bear species, we identified unidirectional gene flow from Asian black into sloth bears. Moreover, gene flow detected from brown into American black bears can explain the conflicting placement of the American black bear in mitochondrial and nuclear phylogenies. These results highlight that both incomplete lineage sorting and introgression are prominent evolutionary forces even on time scales up to several million years. Complex evolutionary patterns are not adequately captured by strictly bifurcating models, and can only be fully understood when analyzing multiple independently inherited loci in a coalescence framework. Phylogenetic incongruence among gene trees hence needs to be recognized as a biologically meaningful signal.
Em alguns de seus trabalhos Talcott Parsons descreveu o estabelecimento das sociedades modernas como um processo de diferenciação de diversas esferas de reconhecimento recíproco. Neste texto eu uso a teoria social do reconhecimento de Parsons para examinar características de conflitos sociais recentes. Começo expondo a descrição que Parsons fez das lutas por reconhecimento ocorridas nas sociedades altamente industrializadas de sua época. Depois tomo a concepção de Parsons sobre conflitos por reconhecimento normativamente orientados para indicar tendências que levaram a uma gradual erosão das estruturas de pacificação social postuladas por Parsons nas últimas décadas do século 20. Descrevo as consequências iniciais dessa desintegração como uma “barbarização” dos conflitos sociais. Por barbarizado entendo um estágio da sociedade em que as lutas por reconhecimento social escalaram e se tornaram anômicas, uma vez que não podem mais ser resolvidas nas esferas sistêmicas estabelecidas de negociação. Este texto revela a importância do conceito de reconhecimento para a teoria social ao acompanhar Parsons na análise de transformações estruturais que atualmente emergem em resposta a conflitos sociais. Resumo do editor.
Banater Schnitten, Pariser Stangen, Russische Elegante : zur Reichweite siebenbürgischer Kochrezepte
(2014)
The present paper analyses the gastronomic terms with geographical components, which appear especially in the German cooking books, characteristic for the 19th and 20th century from Transylvania. The linguistic analysis (phonology, morpho-syntax, and semantics) and the pragmatics of these terms help us to reflect the economic, historical and cultural realities of those times; the interethnic interferences from the gastronomic field are as profound as those from the cultural and linguistic field are.
Baldellia ranunculoides : Gewöhnlicher Igelschlauch (Alismataceae), Wasserpflanze des Jahres 2013
(2014)
Von den in Deutschland und auch in Nordrhein-Westfalen gefährdeten Pflanzenarten zählen neben den Ackerwildkräutern die Wasserpflanzen zu der Gruppe von Pflanzen, die am stärksten vom Verlust oder der negativen Beeinflussung ihrer primären Lebensräume betroffen sind. Im Jahr 2013 wurde der Gewöhnliche Igelschlauch (Baldellia ranunculoides) vom Förderkreis Sporttauchen zur "Wasserpflanze des Jahres" gewählt. In Deutschland und in Nordrhein-Westfalen zählt die Art heute zu den bedrohten Arten und wird in den entsprechenden Roten Listen als "stark gefährdet" angegeben. Im vorliegenden Beitrag werden Systematik und Morphologie sowie Lebensraum und Verbreitung dargestellt.
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection leads to the development of hepatic diseases, as well as extrahepatic disorders such as B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (B-NHL). To reveal the molecular signalling pathways responsible for HCV-associated B-NHL development, we utilised transgenic (Tg) mice that express the full-length HCV genome specifically in B cells and develop non-Hodgkin type B-cell lymphomas (BCLs). The gene expression profiles in B cells from BCL-developing HCV-Tg mice, from BCL-non-developing HCV-Tg mice, and from BCL-non-developing HCV-negative mice were analysed by genome-wide microarray. In BCLs from HCV-Tg mice, the expression of various genes was modified, and for some genes, expression was influenced by the gender of the animals. Markedly modified genes such as Fos, C3, LTβR, A20, NF-κB and miR-26b in BCLs were further characterised using specific assays. We propose that activation of both canonical and alternative NF-κB signalling pathways and down-regulation of miR-26b contribute to the development of HCV-associated B-NHL.
The historical account of Aztec Emperor Auitztol's introduction of the great-tailed grackle Quiscalus mexicanus into the Valley of Mexico (1486–1502) is significant because it documents human translocation of wild birds in Mexico over 500 years ago, before the Spanish Conquest of that land. In the present paper, which defends the account from writings that dispute it, I first review the evidence of how the account was obtained and show that its many details are consistent with what is known from other sources about both the great-tailed grackle and the Aztecs (Nahuas). I then review and examine all published criticisms of the account and explain in detail why they are wrong. The critics have to date presented no persuasive evidence to support their speculation that the Aztecs confused, or might have confused, a natural invasion for an introduction. In contrast to these critics, Bernardino de Sahagún’s research group in the 1500s presented a highly credible, peer-reviewed historical account that documented Aztec introduction of the great-tailed grackle. The pioneering work of these Renaissance Mexican scholars continues to stand as one of the most important records of invasive alien species introduction in ancient times.
Autobiographie, Autofiktion, Metafiktion und Literatur : der Fall "Stadt der Engel" von Christa Wolf
(2014)
Hauptthema des "Buches Stadt der Engel" von Christa Wolf (1929-2011) ist die problematische Feststellung der Realität in unseren heutigen Tagen. Dieses Buch, ein Erzählrahmen funktioniert, der alle Diskurse im Text stützt: den romanhaften, den historischen, den autobiographischen. Sogar die surrealistische Figur eines Schutzengels wird dem Leser geboten, eine Figur, die der Protagonistin als Ausländerin in einem fremden Land hilft, Schicksalsschläge wie die "Entdeckung" der eigenen Vergangenheit als IM Margarete der Stasi zu überwinden. Absicht dieses Essays ist es zu zeigen, wie alle diese Diskurse im Text zu einem literarischen Gewebe artikuliert werden.
