The gold(I)-catalysed protodecarboxylation mechanism
No full textThe authors thank the EPSRC and the ERC (FUNCAT) for funding. S.P.N. is a Royal Society Wolfson Merit Award holder.A mechanistic study of the gold-catalysed protodecarboxylation is described. Each reaction step has been investigated experimentally and computationally. More specifically, the activation parameters for the decarboxylation step have been determined through kinetic studies. Further experimental studies on the hydrolysis of the arylgold intermediate have revealed that the protodeauration can become competitive with the decarboxylation process at high conversions. This switch in rate-limiting step has been shown to be pKa-dependent. These studies have been supported by DFT calculations and permit a better understanding of which prevalent features of the reaction mechanism account for the decarboxylation process.Peer reviewe
The Wedding of Charles I and Henrietta Maria, 1625. Celebrations and Controversy
No full textThe union of 1625 between Charles Stuart, the Protestant king of Great Britain, and Henrietta Maria, a Catholic Bourbon princess, was a unique cross-confessional alliance in post-Reformation Europe. The volume brings together literary, art, music, and political-cultural scholars to explore for the first time the variety of celebrations that accompanied the match.
On 11 May 1625 Charles I married Henrietta Maria, the youngest sister of Louis XIII of France. The match signalled Britain’s firm alignment with France against Habsburg Spain and promised well for future relations between the two countries. However, the union between a Protestant king and a Catholic princess was controversial from the start and the marriage celebrations were fraught with tensions. They were further disrupted by the sudden death of James I and an outbreak of the plague, which prevented large-scale public celebrations in London. The British weather also played its part. In fact, unlike other state occasions, the celebrations exposed weaknesses in the display of royal grandeur and national superiority. To a large extent they also failed to hide the tensions in the Stuart-Bourbon alliance. Instead they revealed the conflicting expectations of the two countries, each convinced of its own superiority and intent on furthering its own national interests. Less than two years later Britain was effectively in a state of war against France.
In this volume, leading scholars from a variety of disciplines explore for the first time the marriage celebrations of 1625, with a view to uncovering the differences and misunderstandings beneath the outward celebration of union and concord. By taking into account the ceremonial, political, religious and international dimensions of the event, the collection paints a rounded portrait of a union that would become personally successful, but complicated by the various tensions played out in the marriage celebrations and discussed here

Louis Wolfson: as palavras de escritura fina
No full textIn this paper, we propose to reflect about the functioning of the delirium in the
language, from Wolfson s production, considering two main aspects, his relation with several
languages and his refusal of the language taught by his mother. To make our discussion, we
will start from the articulation between language and psychoanalysis proposed by Jacques
Lacan, begining with the re-reading of Freud and his concepts brought from linguistic area
(based on Ferdinand Saussure).
Freud and Lacan worry about making a distinction between neurosis and psychosis to
define the structural mechanisms of each functioning. Lacan bases on some concepts
proposed by Ferdinand Saussure about the language functioning, principally the linguistic
sign to explain the inscription way of the subject in the language fields and the features of
each structure. Our focus will be destinate to a deepening in the area of the psychosis
structuration. In this way, it will be considered: the concepts concerning such strucuture, like
Verwerfung of the Father s Name, the peculiar organization of the meanings and the
predominance of the metonimic operation in the relation to the methaforic ones. Such
concepts are related to the constitution of the delirium and the logics of the functioning. The
delirium is presented in the phychoses like a possibility of the reconstruction of the reality and
a reorganization of the meaningful chain, wich is marked with a break due to the lack of the
father functioning. Maleval, in the book Le logique du délire, deepens in his conception about
the delirium both in the psychiatry and psychanalysis; the author bases on the psychanalysis
to detach the phases of the elaboration of the delirium, as well asw his way of systematization.
To understand the mechanisms that make the chain of the language funcioting of the
psychosis, as well as the elaboration and the work of the delirium, we base on the reports by
Louis Wolfson ( author of the book Le schizo et les Langues). With this discussion cocnerning
Wolfson s piece, we aim to detach the functioning of specific language and also the peculiar
relation with the meanings, caused by the lack of the father s function and ther relation of the
refusal of mother s wish and the language taught by her. Further more, we search to
investigate the systematization of the delirium from the author s reportrs, considering mainly
the aspects like the refusal of the language taught by his mother, the relation established by
Wolfson With his several other languages chosen to substitute the one that could be his
mother language.Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível SuperiorMestrado em Estudos LinguísticosNeste trabalho, propomo-nos a refletir sobre o funcionamento do delírio na linguagem,
a partir da produção de Louis Wolfson, considerando dois aspectos principais: sua relação
com as várias línguas e sua recusa dos sons da língua ensinada pela mãe. Para realizarmos a
nossa reflexão, partiremos da articulação entre linguagem e psicanálise proposta por Jacques
Lacan a partir da releitura de Freud e dos conceitos trazidos do âmbito linguístico, propostos
por Ferdinand Saussure.
Freud e Lacan preocupam-se em realizar uma distinção entre a neurose e a psicose
para definir os mecanismos estruturantes de cada funcionamento. Lacan se apoiará em alguns
conceitos propostos por Ferdinand Saussure acerca do funcionamento da língua,
principalmente o signo linguístico, para explicar o modo de inscrição do sujeito no campo da
linguagem e as especificidades de cada estrutura. Nosso foco será destinado a um
aprofundamento no campo de estruturação da psicose, e, sendo assim, serão abordados os
conceitos relacionados a tal estrutura, como a foraclusão do nome do pai, a organização
peculiar dos significantes e a prevalência das operações metonímicas em relação às
metafóricas. Tais conceitos se relacionam à constituição do delírio e à sua lógica de
funcionamento.
O delírio se apresentará na psicose como uma possibilidade de reconstrução da
realidade e uma reorganização da cadeia significante, que é marcada por uma ruptura devido à
carência da função paterna. Maleval, no livro Le logique du délire, aprofunda-se na
conceituação sobre o delírio tanto na psiquiatria como na psicanálise; o autor se apoia na
psicanálise para destacar as fases de elaboração do delírio, bem como seu modo de
sistematização.
Para compreender os mecanismos que encadeiam o funcionamento de linguagem da
psicose, bem como a elaboração e o trabalho do delírio, recorreremos aos relatos produzidos
por Louis Wolfson, autor do livro Le schizo et les langues. Com essa reflexão a partir da obra
de Wolfson, objetivamos destacar seu funcionamento de língua específico e, ainda, sua
relação peculiar com os significantes, movidos pela carência da função paterna e uma relação
de recusa ao desejo materno e, portanto, à língua ensinada por sua mãe. Além disso, buscamos
investigar a sistematização do delírio a partir dos relatos do autor, considerando
fundamentalmente aspectos como a recusa dos sons da língua ensinada por sua mãe e a
relação estabelecida por Wolfson com as várias outras línguas escolhidas por ele para
substituir aquela que poderia ter sido a sua língua materna
