Investigating Performer Uniqueness: The Case of Jascha Heifetz
No full textThis thesis is based on the conviction that the greatest musical performers of history can and should be granted the same level of academic scrutiny and study as is so often received by the greatest composers. Composers had the early advantage of producing durable manuscripts, while performers prior to the age of recording were unable to leave more than impressions in the minds of those who heard them. With the recent successes of numerous investigations into performance and recordings, including the CHARM and CMPCP projects, such studies are becoming ever more viable and significant.
The thesis focuses on the violinist Jascha Heifetz (1901-1987) and primarily his performances of the Bach solo violin works (BWV 1001-1006). While there have been studies of individual pieces, of particular performers, and of multiple recordings of the same piece, a study focussing on specific repertoire played by a specific performer is something that has been somewhat overlooked in the literature. The thesis draws on numerous methods to distil what is distinctive and unique about Heifetz. This includes an examination of what and how the performer played, why the performer played that way, and how that way of playing compares to other performers. The study concludes with a discussion of Heifetz’s unique performer profile in the context of violin performance history.
Focussing on one of the most famous and successful performing musicians of the twentieth century along with some of the most frequently played pieces, this case study will suggest research methods and approaches transferable to related studies. The thesis draws on original interviews with former Heifetz students, friends, and colleagues, and on over thirteen months of archival research in the Jascha Heifetz Collection held by the Library of Congress. This array of previously untapped material aided the analytical and empirical investigations into Heifetz’s uniqueness

L’evento, incentrato sulle radicali trasformazioni che la rivoluzione digitale sta progressivamente determinando nella società moderna, ha alimentato un dialogo costruttivo su questioni di estremo interesse per il civilista. La suddivisione del volume in sezioni intende tracciare un fil rouge tra le rinnovate opportunità e le controverse problematiche che le nuove tecnologie, nelle loro infinite declinazioni, possono determinare nel sistema della legalità costituzionale. Per quanto risulti estremamente arduo delineare in modo compiuto il rapporto tra Tecnologie e Diritto, la stringente interferenza tra i due sistemi dovrà necessariamente riflettere l’impronta personalistica e solidaristica dell’assetto valoriale del complesso sistema ordinamentale
Skyler and Bliss
No full textHong Kong remains the backdrop to the science fiction movies of my youth. The city reminds me of my former training in the financial sector. It is a city in which I could have succeeded in finance, but as far as art goes it is a young city, and I am a young artist. A frustration emerges; much like the mould, the artist also had to develop new skills by killing off his former desires and manipulating technology. My new series entitled HONG KONG surface project shows a new direction in my artistic research in which my technique becomes ever simpler, reducing the traces of pixelation until objects appear almost as they were found and photographed. Skyler and Bliss presents tectonic plates based on satellite images of the Arctic. Working in a hot and humid Hong Kong where mushrooms grow ferociously, a city artificially refrigerated by climate control, this series provides a conceptual image of a imaginary typographic map for survival.

Mapping transference : problems of African literature and translation from French into English
No full textAlthough a number of African literary works have been
translated from French into English since the middle of this
century, research and debate on their translation has remained
scanty, fragmentary, and scattered in diverse learned journals
and other short publications. This thesis seeks to broaden the
scope of research by mapping out aspects of transference in
translation in terms of analysis and transfer strategies that
have been, or could be, used. A selection of major translated
works have been compared with their originals, to give textual
examples indicative of transfer strategies.
Current issues in African literature as well as typical
features of the literature in French and English have been
explored in order to examine differences between them and English
and French literatures. The implications of these differences (at
the levels of content, cultural setting, peculiar use of English
and French, and the target audience) for translation are
considered, and a brief historical survey of the translation of
African literature provides insights into how translators have
approached, and continue to approach, literary texts as well as
cope with their target readership. Furthermore, dominant trends
in literary translation studies (mainly in the West) are explored
to determine if, and in what ways, they relate to translation
studies in Africa.
The analysis of transfer strategies focuses on the
distinctive features of francophone African literary texts,
drawing on relevant Western literary translation theories and
models, on African literary theory and criticism, as well as on
other disciplines likely contribute to an informed understanding
of the texts. Finally, a case study applies the analysis to a
text which is translated, and transfer strategies discussed
15th Eurasia Conference on Chemical Sciences (EuAsC2S-15) - 5th-8th September 2018, Rome, Italy
No full textPure Appl. Chem. 2019; 91(10): 1549–1552 Preface Luciana Dini*, Daniele Passeri, Cristian Vergallo and Marco Rossi 15th Eurasia Conference on Chemical Sciences (EuAsC2S-15) – 5th–8th September 2018, Rome, Italy https://doi.org/10.1515/pac-2019-0904 Keywords: 15th Eurasia Conference on Chemical Sciences; EuAsC2S-15; Eurasia 2018. Around 1985–1986, Prof. Bernd M. Rode from the University of Innsbruck (Austria) suggested with Prof. Hitoshi Ohtaki (an International Steering Committee Member of the International Conference on Solution Chemistry, ICSC) to organize an international conference on solution chemistry in Thailand. ICSC was scheduled in 1988 and, thus, it was not possible to organize the new conference in Thailand before that year. Upon invitation of Prof. Ivano Bertini of Florence University (Italy) by Profs. Rode and Ohtaki to join this first committee, the three founders discussed the proposal and changed Prof. Rode’s original idea to the creation of an international conference called Eurasia Conference on Chemistry of Solutions (EuAsC2S) aimed at deepening friendship among chemists in the Eurasian supercontinent, and supporting them with the help of chemists from Countries in other continents, such as USA, Canada, and Australia. This could be achieved with the organization of the international Eurasia series of conferences of world-top quality and class, mainly in developing Asian countries with the participation of a world-wide friendship network. Through this conference Worldleading researchers were invited, with whom scientists, especially young ones from developing countries, could exchange information, opinions, results, and visions to emphasize scientific activities in their countries. Under such a vision of the three founders, Profs. Rode, Ohtaki and Bertini, the First Eurasia Conference on Chemistry of Solutions (1st EuAsC2S) was held in Bangkok in 1988 (http://xray.kaist.ac.kr/euasc2s/). In the same year, the logo of the conference (EuAsC2S) was proposed by Dr. Sunt Techakumpuch of Chulalongkorn University (Thailand). Eurasia Conference on Chemistry of Solutions changed its name to Eurasia Conference of Chemistry in Seoul (Korea) in 1990, and then, again to Eurasia Conference on Chemical Sciences in 1992 in Guangzou (China), due to its expansion to all areas of chemistry, now involved in the conference. All previous conferences of this series had been organized in Asiatic countries, while the first to be organized in Europe was the 12th in Greece. Chairman of 12th Eurasia was Emeritus Professor of Chemistry Nick Hadjiliadis. Every Chairman of Eurasia Conferences on Chemical Sciences is a member of the International Organizing Committee (IOC) at each conference and has a general supervision of the organization. The Chairman of the National Organizing Committee (NOC) is responsible for the organization of the conference with the cooperation of the National Article note: A collection of invited papers based on presentations at the 15th Eurasia Conference on Chemical Sciences (EuAsC 2S-15) held at Sapienza University of Rome, Italy, 5–8 September 2018. *Corresponding author: Luciana Dini, Sapienza University of Rome, Department of Biology and Biotechnology “Charles Darwin” (BBCD), Piazzale Aldo Moro n. 5, 00185 Rome, Italy; and CNR Nanotec, 73100 Lecce, Italy, e-mail: [email protected] Daniele Passeri and Marco Rossi: Sapienza University of Rome, Department of Basic and Applied Sciences for Engineering (SBAI), Via Antonio Scarpa n. 14 00161, Rome, Italy Cristian Vergallo: University of Chieti-Pescara “G. d’Annunzio”, Department of Pharmacy, Via dei Vestini n. 31, 63100 Chieti, Italy © 2019 IUPAC & De Gruyter.

Indeed, 2018 was the 30th birthday of EuAsC2S-15 conference. Also, 2019 is the 100th birthday of IUPAC, which endorsed EuAsC2S-15 conference. Finally, 2019 has been declared the International Year of Periodic Table, celebrated by IUPAC by realizing a periodic table of young researchers (https://iupac.org/100/pt-of-chemist/). EuAsC2S-15 saw the presence of about 120 attendees from 30 countries (Fig. 2). 40 % of attendees were women, which represents a satisfying result in terms of promotion of gender equality. Overall, the number and the provenience of attendees led to a broad, stimulating programme with over 80 lectures (including those by Nobel Laureate Prof. Jean-Marie Lehn, Fig. 3) along with 38 poster presentations. The most scientifically relevant of them have been selected for these two special issues of Pure and Applied Chemistry. Fig. 1: Prof. Luciana Dini during the EuAsC2S-15’s opening ceremony.
