The Gothic threshold of Sabine Baring-Gould : a study of the Gothic fiction of a Victorian squarson
No full textThis thesis is a study of the Gothic fiction of Sabine Baring-Gould (1834-
1924), with particular attention given to Baring-Gould’s roles as squire and parson. I
have chosen to analyze two of Baring-Gould’s Gothic works, the novel Mehalah
(1880) and the novella Margery of Quether (1884), both which allow a particularly
profitable examination of the influence of Baring-Gould’s roles on his fiction.
In studying these texts I apply my theory of Gothic fiction as a particularly
modern genre built upon a "Gothic threshold," a meeting point of extreme opposites
which ambivalently contrasts and merges the categories of the modern and the
medieval.
In the first chapter I describe how Baring-Gould’s unique Hegelian-influenced
Tractarian philosophy influenced his creation of the dialectical setting of Mehalah. I
argue that because of this influence Mehalah should be recognized as a significant
contribution to the literature of the Oxford Movement.
In the second chapter I argue that Mehalah’s historical setting in the time of
the French Revolution and the influence of Wuthering Heights reinforce Mehalah’s
use of the “Gothic threshold” structure and contribute to its theme of ambivalent
progress.
In the third chapter I discuss the influence of Baring-Gould’s sermon-writing
on Mehalah and consider connections between Baring-Gould’s role as parson and the
novel’s botched marriage theme.
In the final chapter I discuss Margery of Quether as an innovation in the
Gothic and vampire tradition as perhaps the only Gothic work that directly dramatizes
the Land Law debate and presents that debate as a "Gothic" contest. I argue that
Margery channels Baring-Gould’s tensions as a landowner.
In the conclusion I argue that Mehalah and Margery display Baring-Gould’s
technique of constructing miniature Gothic battles that relate to larger confrontations,
and that the ultimate terror presented in these works is the conclusion of the battle
between ancient and modern forces

Facteurs maternels prédictifs du traitement par insuline dans le diabète gestationnel (résultats d une étude rétrospective de 167 patientes ayant un diabète gestationnel diagnostiqué selon les dernières recommandations françaises de décembre 2010)
No full textL objectif de ce travail a été de déterminer s il existe d éventuels facteurs maternels prédictifs d insulinothérapie dans le traitement du diabète gestationnel, en examinant les différences notables entre deux groupes de traitement (diététique versus diététique et insuline) chez 167 patientes atteintes de diabète gestationnel, diagnostiqué selon les nouveaux critères des recommandations françaises de décembre 2010. Cette étude rétrospective a été menée au Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Dijon entre janvier 2011 et juin 2012. Aucune étude à priori, n a été publiée à ce sujet depuis la parution des dernières recommandations. 121 patientes (75,2%) ont été traitées par mesures hygiéno-diététiques seules, et 40 patientes (24,4%) ont eu de l insuline. Le terme au diagnostic de diabète gestationnel et la prise de poids gestationnelle étaient abaissés dans le groupe de traitement par insuline comparé au groupe de traitement par diététique seule. En analyse multivariée, seule la valeur de la glycémie à jeun du dépistage du deuxième trimestre était un facteur maternel indépendant d insulinothérapie. Cette étude montre qu un diagnostic plus précoce de diabète gestationnel est partiellement prédictif d une insulinothérapie, à l instar d études antérieures. D autre part, les femmes de notre cohorte traitées par insuline ont pris moins de poids que les femmes traitées par diététique seule, sans retentissement sur la morbidité foetale. Enfin, seule la glycémie à jeun de l HGPO était indépendamment prédictive d insulinothérapie. Ce point soulève la question déjà discutée par d autres auteurs du maintien d un test de dépistage en trois temps au deuxième trimestre de grossesse.DIJON-BU Médecine Pharmacie (212312103) / SudocSudocFranceF
A conference as we like it: “Fontanes Briefe ediert”
No full text- A guest post by Selma Jahnke and Sabine Seifert - The Theodor Fontane Archive hosts most of Theodor Fontane’s letters – a real treasure not only for research on the author himself but for a variety of research approaches. Several attempts and efforts were made to edit parts of his correspondence but a complete edition is – even today – still a desideratum. And where could this project be realized more suitably than at the Fontane Archive itself? To think about possible projects, methods and..

De Lingua Sabina: A Reappraisal of the Sabine Glosses
No full textThis thesis offers a reappraisal of the Sabine glosses through the analysis of thirty-nine words, all glossed explicitly as Sabine in ancient sources ranging from the first century BCE to the sixth century CE.
The study of the Sabine glosses found in ancient grammarians and antiquarians goes back to the beginnings of Italic scholarship. Over time, two positions on the Sabine glosses have crystallised: (a) the Sabine glosses are evidence of a personal obsession of the Republican author Varro, in whose work many Sabine glosses survive, and (b) the Sabine glosses are true remnants of a single language of which little or no epigraphic evidence has survived.
By using the neogrammarian observation that sound-change is regular and exceptionless, it is possible to ascertain whether or not the Sabine glosses are likely to be from the same language. This thesis finds that the sound-changes undergone by the Sabine glosses show no broad agreement. The developments are characteristic of different languages – Latin, Faliscan and various Sabellic languages – and many changes are mutually exclusive. This consequently throws doubt on the assertion that the Sabine glosses are all taken from one language. Instead, the glosses should be seen as part of a discourse of the relationships between Romans, Sabines and Sabellic-speaking peoples.
During the Republic, Sabines were central to Roman myth, historiography and political rhetoric. As the Sabines were a distinct people in the Roman foundation myths, but were largely Romanised in the Republican present, they became a convenient bridge between Rome and the Sabellic-speaking peoples of Central and Southern Italy, to whom Greek and Roman writers ascribed myths tracing origin back to the Sabines. This continued into the Empire, when emperors such as Claudius and Vespasian utilised their (supposed) Sabine heritage to gain ideological capital. In light of this, the phenomenon of Sabine glosses cannot be seen as one man’s interest, but as a means of reflecting on Rome’s relations with Sabellic-speaking Italy
KOMPARASI SEJARAH DAN ANALISIS TEKS SABINE SCHMIDTKE
No full textThis study looks at the numerous studies of Islamic theology conducted by Western nations since the early nineteenth century. They studied Muslim thinkers' writings and brought them to the West. Initially, the study of the manuscript was general in nature, but later thinkers narrowed it down to a specific study. Sabine Schmidtke is a modern Orientalist who specializes in manuscripts of Islamic theology, particularly Mu'tazilah theology. In this study, the author employs the library research method to examine Sabine Schmidtke's books and journals on the relationship between Jewish Karaites, Shia theology and Mu'tazilah theology. Based on the author's research, Sabine's comparative historical and textual studies have revealed that the Shia school of thought and the Jewish Karaites sect have adopted Mu'tazilah thought, specifically the thought of Abu al-Husayn al-Basri. They not only adopted ideas, but they also copied and preserved writings found in Yemen in the form of manuscripts.
Keywords: Sabine Schmidtke, Jewish Karaites, Mu'tazilah

Being a team again (a 1000-piece-puzzle)

The last position (contract for a student as a studentische Hilfskraft) that was vacant since Maike changed universities is now filled with Sophia Zeil. Which makes us - still - a bunch of girls, but with an amazing encoding task force. Sabine and Julia are taking care of the Boeckh project. Sophia is helping Sabine and Anna out with the Chamisso corpus as well. Besides being our drama encoding sp..
