Mapping an Atlantic world: circa 1500/ Alida C. Metcalf.
No full text"The year 1500, Metcalf argues, was a turning point in Europeans' understanding of their world in relation to the Atlantic Ocean. In the sixteenth century, cartographers began to conceptualize-and present to the public-an interconnected Atlantic World that was open and navigable, in contrast with the mysterious ocean that had blocked off the Western hemisphere before Columbus. The author contends that early modern cartographers were significant agents in the intellectual history of the Atlantic World"--The Atlantic Ocean on the periphery -- 1500 -- Chartmakers -- The fourth part of the world -- Parrots and trees -- The cannibalist scene.1 online resourc

Young Children's Opportunities towards Development and Attachment at an Orphanage in Uganda
No full textAuthor: Alida Karlman and Emma Jonerud Title: Young Children's Opportunities towards Development and Attachment at an Orphanage in Uganda Supervisor: Bodil Rasmusson Assesor: Malin Arvidson This study was performed at the orphanage Sanyu Babies Home in the capital city Kampala of Uganda and became possible with the financial support through the Minor Field Study (MFS) scholarship from SIDA. The purpose of the study was to view how the employees promoted children’s attachment and development with the existing conditions at the orphanage. We used a qualitative approach in the form of semi-structured interviews as well as participant observations. Two different types of sampling were used, convenience sampling for the orphanage and purposive sampling for the employees. The theories we applied on the analysis was Maslow’s Hierarchy, Erikson’s Psychosocial Theory and The Attachment theory. In our conclusion we recognized deficiencies in the employee’s fulfillment of the children’s needs due to lack of knowledge as well as limited resources. The methods used at the orphanage were influenced by cultural values instead of evidence-based knowledge. Additionally, the extensive use of corporal punishment and special treatment affected the children’s ability to develop and attach. Although, the desire to love and care for all the children were still present. Key words: Orphanage, Uganda, Children's development, Attachment, Cultural aspects
The fetus and fever

We review the consequences of maternal fever and infection for the fetus. Possible consequences include noxious fetal hyperthermia, cytokine-induced damage to tissues and premature labour or abortion.

Combining green-blue-grey infrastructure for flood mitigation and enhancement of co-benefits
No full textAn increment of urban flood risk in many areas around the globe is expected. Thus appropriate flood risk management is crucial. Although strong evidence exists demonstrating that green-blue infrastructure is a sustainable solution to reduce flooding, its adoption is still slow. The objective of this research is to help decision-makers to adopt adaptation strategies to cope with flood risk while achieving other benefits. This work contributes to enhance planning processes for flood mitigation combining green-blue-grey measures. It provides tools and knowledge to facilitate holistic decision-making, in order to ensure safe and liveable urban spaces for current and future conditions.Dissertation submitted in fulfillment of the requirements of the Board for Doctorates of Delft University of Technology and of the Academic Board of IHE Delft Institute for Water Education.BT/Environmental Biotechnolog
The »Gruda« Choir from Rovišće – From Photography to Family and Broader Cultural Meaning
No full textPotaknuta fotografijom Pjevačkoga zbora »Gruda« iz Rovišća na kojoj je vidjela svoju baku, autorica istražuje osnutak i djelovanje seljačkih zborova u bjelovarskom kraju u drugoj polovici dvadesetih godina prošloga stoljeća. »Gruda« je primjer tipičnoga hrvatskoga seljačkoga zbora koji nalikuje gradskomu; sa zborovođom uz note pjevale su se autorske zborske skladbe hrvatskih, ali i stranih autora. »Gruda« je ujedno jedini pjevački zbor iz okolice Bjelovara koji je djelovao pod okriljem Seljačke sloge.Prompted by an encounter with a photograph of the mixed »Gruda« choir from Rovišće, in which she spotted the figure of her grandmother, the author investigates the founding and impact of peasant choirs in Bjelovar county throughout the latter half of the 1920s. In the absence of archival materials, the basic sources were the periodicals Seljačka prosvjeta (1926-1929), Glazbeni vjesnik (1919-1931) and Nezavisnost (1906-1935).
The »Gruda« choir was a collaborative project of local music enthusiasts of different social background, age groups and ethnicities. A large number of its members came from the first and second generation of Czech immigrants who moved to Rovišće at the end of the 19th century and peacefully integrated into the local society. The choir seemed to be a typical example of a former (Croatian) peasant choir, similar to city choirs; with a choirmaster and written music material, the choir would perform harmonized or arranged traditional Croatian folk songs, but also compositions by foreign authors, which was not common at the time. Also, the »Gruda« choir was the only choir in the near vicinity of Bjelovar that originated and actively acted under the aegis of the Seljačka sloga (Peasant Concord), a cultural-educational and philanthropic organization of the Hrvatska seljačka stranka (Croatian Peasant Party). With a self-reflexive final review at the research of a fragment of her own family’s history, the author was given an answer to the question of why she devoted herself to music, even though none of her close relatives were actively engaged in it
