Histoire Complete de Joseph
No full textThe Joseph story in Genesis was a subject of great interest to Syriac writers, and in this volume Bedjan presents the Syriac text (in vocalized East Syriac script) of a lengthy and highly praised poem on the subject, sometimes attributed to Ephrem, but more recently to the fifth-century author Balai. The poem consists of twelve homilies (memre) in the 7 + 7 meter, the subjects of which are: 1. On jealousy and the sale of Joseph, 2. Bringing his coat to his father, 3. Going down to Egypt and his sale to Potiphar, 4. His temptation, 5. His imprisonment, 6. His exaltation, 7. His brothers going down to Egypt, 8. Benjamin going down to Egypt, 9. Joseph revealing himself to his brothers, 10. News of Joseph reaching his father, 11. The death of Jacob, and 12. Joseph’s death. An appendix contains a poem on the translation of Joseph’s bones
The Impact Of The Development Of ICT In Several Hungarian Economic Sectors
Get PDFAs the author could not find a reassuring mathematical and
statistical method in the literature for studying the effect of
information communication technology on enterprises, the author
suggested a new research and analysis method that he also used to study the Hungarian economic sectors. The question of what
factors have an effect on their net income is vital for enterprises. At first, the author studied some potential indicators related to economic sectors, then those indicators were compared to the net income of the surveyed enterprises. The resulting data showed that the growing penetration of electronic marketplaces contributed to the change of the net income of enterprises to the greatest extent.
Furthermore, among all the potential indicators, it was the only indicator directly influencing the net income of enterprises.
With the help of the compound indicator and the financial data
of the studied economic sectors, the author made an attempt to find a connection between the development level of ICT and
profitability. Profitability and productivity are influenced by a lot of other factors as well. As the effect of the other factors could not be measured, the results – shown in a coordinate system - are not full but informative.
The highest increment of specific Gross Value Added was
produced by the fields of ‘Manufacturing’, ‘Electricity, gas and water supply’, ‘Transport, storage and communication’ and
‘Financial intermediation’. With the exception of ‘Electricity, gas and water supply’, the other economic sectors belong to the group of underdeveloped branches (below 50 percent).
On the other hand, ‘Construction’, ‘Health and social work’ and
‘Hotels and restaurants’ can be seen as laggards, so they got into the lower left part of the coordinate system.
‘Agriculture, hunting and forestry’ can also be classified as a
laggard economic sector, but as the effect of the compound
indicator on the increment of Gross Value Added was less
significant, it can be found in the upper left part of the coordinate system. Drawing a trend line on the points, it can be made clear that it shows a positive gradient, that is, the higher the usage of ICT devices, the higher improvement can be detected in the specific Gross Value Added

An earlier Foundations covering the messages from these projects has already been published (1). This Foundations places the messages from that work into the Scottish context. It gives an overview of current policies affecting disabled children and their families in Scotland and draws on research carried out north of the border
Solution processable diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP) cored small molecules with BODIPY end groups as novel donors for organic solar cells
Get PDFPJS thanks the Royal Society for a Wolfson Research Merit Award.Two novel triads based on a diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP) central core and two 4,4-difluoro-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene (BODIPY) units attached by thiophene rings have been synthesised having high molar extinction coefficients. These triads were characterised and used as donor materials in small molecule, solution processable organic solar cells. Both triads were blended with PC71BM as an acceptor in different ratios by wt% and their photovoltaic properties were studied. For both the triads a modest photovoltaic performance was observed, having an efficiency of 0.65%. Moreover, in order to understand the ground and excited state properties and vertical absorption profile of DPP and BODIPY units within the triads, theoretical DFT and TDDFT calculations were performed.Peer reviewe
The new enfant du siècle: Joseph de Maistre as a writer
No full textThe essays contained within this volume were first presented at Reappraisals/Reconsidérations, the Fifth International Colloquium on Joseph de Maistre, held at Jesus College, Cambridge on 4 and 5 December 2008.Series editor-in-chief: Guy Rowlands, University of St AndrewsJoseph de Maistre's reputation as a writer is legendary. His style, unique and alive, moulded the French language anew. It sabotaged his attempts at anonymous publication and earned him, through the centuries, the praises of enemies and admirers. Yet the relationship between Maistre's thought and writing remains ill-known. This collection is the first to examine how Maistre's ideas – including his denunciation of the written word – intersected with his writing practices and personas. The essays disclose an author formed by duty and affectionate relationships, by the conventions of public combat, by an intense sense of history, and by the imperatives of Revolution.Introduction: assessing Maistre's style and rhetoric / Richard A. Lebrun -- Joseph de Maistre as pamphleteer / Richard A. Lebrun -- Joseph de Maistre, letter writer / Pierre Glaudes ; translated by Kevin Michael Erwin and Richard A. Lebrun -- Joseph de Maistre: the paradox of the writer / Benjamin Thurston -- Epilogue: the forced inhabitant of history / Carolina ArmenterosPublisher PD
