    Juan de la Cruz Contreras Sánchez: El hombre y el maestro ejemplar

    No full text
    No existen dudas respeto a las notables virtudes de Juan de la Cruz Contreras Sánchez, ciudadano ejemplar. Pero esto no es suficiente para destacar su labor tesonera en beneficio de la colectividad cucuteña, porque cuando se revisa su trayectoria profesional, su vocación de servicio, su aporte a la comunidad y su legado docente, se comprende inmediatamente la presencia de un hombre fundamental en el exacto sentido de esta palabra: sujeto esencial, primordial y pilar principal: un hombre de los que Bertolt Brecht llamaría imprescindibles. Este libro tiene como propósito resaltar la vida y obra de Juan de la Cruz Contreras Sánchez, quien forma parte de esa rara especie de sujetos excepcionales, sin pretensiones heroicas, sin rebuscamientos mesiánicos, sin alardes cívicos y sin epopeyas resonantes. Pero eso sí, con la naturalidad de quien procuró estar siempre del lado del bien; este personaje descolló por cumplir con su deber, por exigirse a sí mismo más de lo exigido, por la rectitud de su acción en medio de la displicencia general y por su coherencia vital.Prólogo Capítulo I.

    In Sarbiewski's Circle − Albert Ines' Lyric Poetry

    No full text
    Albert Ines is discussed here as the author of the lyrical poem Lyricorum centuriae (Gdańsk 1655). In the collection there are many religious poems, especially ones taking up Virgin Mary as their subject matter, and hence Ines is described as vates Marianus. Ines' religious poems are bound by a double convention: that of the use of biblical and ancient metaphors; they are also even ”garrulous” because of motives of praise accumulated in a litany-style manner. His reflective poems are more interesting; they are a kind of intellectual-lyric poetry abouding in clever sayings, pointed antitheses, etc. Ines imitates Sarbiewski but being consistent with the rule ”imitari non expilare” he limits himself to only two ”parodies”; and even they are not very typical. The fact that Ines imitates Sarbiewski is also seen in taking up the same subjects in his poems. This similarity is sometimes rather faint so its significance for our interpretation will be limited

    The Story of Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz

    No full text
    abstract: The story of Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz is one of a woman who defied the odds of her time. Sor Juana was a nun born in the 1600's in Mexico. From an early start, she had an endless passion for knowledge and always strove to learn as much as she could. She went on to become a nun at the Convent of Santa Paula and used her intellect to advocate for women's rights. Though met with opposition, she wrote many poems, letters, and even plays which included her strong push for women's equality. However, the name Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz is almost never mentioned in popular feminist discourse, despite Sor Juana being credited as one of the first feminist authors. This paper works to not only tell the story of Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz in detail, but also works to answer the question, "Why do people not know about Sor Juana". By diving into the origins of the Feminist movement in the United States, the dark underbelly of Feminism is uncovered. Primarily, the topic of how racism in feminism has plague the civil rights movement, what damage has been done to people of color because of feminism's history, and how does that pertain to modern day feminism and Sor Juana. By telling her story through both written and visual aids, the voice of Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz is no longer silenced but free to tell her tale and move a generation

    In quest'articolo si riflette sul ruolo giocato dalla riviste letterarie arabe nella diffusione della conoscenza della cultura occidentale. Il movimento di traduzione avviato durante la Nahda (la Rinascita) in Egitto e nella Grande Siria condusse a cambiamenti sostanziali dei canoni estetici, ma suscitò anche un movimento di forte opposizione da parte dei conservatori

    Dall’esclusione all’inclusione. Questioni e possibili itinerari di vita per le persone con impairment intellettivo

    The aim of this paper is continuing to think about the issues relating to inclusion, because of aseries of reasons that will be illustrated by the author. The same concept of inclusion needs tobe disambiguated, in order to act a transformative process that is necessary for the whole societyfor becoming welcoming to all. Exactly as happened in the seventies of the twentieth century,we think that the educational institution is a privileged place for the encounter with the other(and, therefore, capable of triggering the inclusive process). In order to remove the stigmawhichstill is around disability, it is important to promote as much as possible such socialization opportunities.With respect to disability (as will emerge from this paper), it should be reiterated that it is a sociohistorical-cultural construct and, therefore, that it varies with the changing of practices linked toit. In this regard, turning our gaze towards adult life (and towards the institutional practices implementedso far), we think is important to continue to problematize the housing conditions of thosewho have intellectual impairment, in order to imagine solutions which could be different fromthose acted up to now. If implemented, these solutions would allow the identity developmentof the people involved (changing the same meaning of disability)

    Growth, genes, genomes: iInsights into microbial respiration of arsenic and selenium

    No full text
    Arsenic (As) and selenium (Se) are naturally occurring metalloids in the Earth’s crust. Their speciation is governed by the microbial communities in various environments which influences their mobility among the soil, water, and air interface. Microorganisms can utilize As and Se oxyanion as terminal electron acceptors in dissimilatory reduction. These organisms are ubiquitous and phylogenetically diverse. The objectives of the studies in this thesis were to gain an understanding of the metabolism of As and Se respiring bacteria, analyze the genes encoding enzymes involved in respiration and understand how these enzymes are regulated in the presence of various electron acceptors. We were able to isolate two novel As and Se respiring bacteria from different environments; from a wastewater treatment facility in Verona, NJ and an estuarine canal from Chennai, India. Based on 16S rRNA gene analysis, strain S4 was classified as a novel genus and species, Selenovibrio woodruffi and strain S5 as a novel species, Desulfurispirillum indicum. We analyzed the genome of D. indicum and examined the expression of putative reductases to further understand respiratory metabolism of As and Se oxyanions. Five molybdoenzyme genes were identified in the genome of strain S5, three of which we were annotated to encode for a respiratory arsenate reductase arr, periplasmic nitrate reductase nar, and respiratory nitrate reductase nap. Also, an arsenate resistance system, ars, was identified. We were not able to positively identify a selenate reductase gene. Gene expression studies revealed that arr was an inducible gene and the only gene highly expressed during arsenate respiration. Growth studies showed that selenate respiration was inhibited by nitrate. Lastly, we also enriched activated sludge samples for tellurium oxyanion respiring bacteria. Thus, we not only added novel, phylogenetically different organisms to the ever-increasing list of As and Se respiring microbes, we also provided insights into the genes and enzymes involved in As and Se respiration and how they are regulated.Ph.

    Predstava Fragile naslov je diplomske ispitne predstave studentice Ines Zmazek pod mentorstvom doc. art. Hrvoja Seršića na Umjetničkoj akademiji u Osijeku, na Odsjeku za kazališnu umjetnost, smjer gluma i lutkarstvo. Predstava je nastala u sklopu dvogodišnjeg projekta Zavirimo iza pozornice: pioniri europskog lutkarstva. U ovom diplomskom radu autorica opisuje proces rada na predstavi, iznosi činjenice o lutkarima i njihovim životima, te se bavi marionetom kao sredstvom izražavanja. Na kraju autorica zaključuje da joj je rad na predstavi Fragile uvelike pomogao da istraži stvari koje do sada nije imala priliku istražiti, te da se još više razvije kao lutkarica.The play Fragile is the title of a graduate exam presentation by Ines Zmazek under mentorship of assistant professor of arts Hrvoje Seršić at the Academy of Art in Osijek, at the Department of Theater Art, acting and puppetry. The performance was born as part of the two-year project All Strings Attached: The Pioneers of European Puppetry Behind the Scenes. In this graduate thesis the author describes the process of work on the play, the facts about famous puppeteers and their lives, and deals with the marionette as a means of expression. In the end the author concludes that her work at the Fragile show greatly helped investigate things she has not yet been able to investigate and develop even more as a puppeteer

    The aim of this paper is to analyze and interpret the ode by Albert Ines, Ad Virginem Matrem. Cynthiam suam. In cuiusdam diei crepusculo (Lyr. 57). First the author cites the original lyrics written in Latin in Alcaic stanzas, and its poetic translation by the author of this paper. Next, the previous reception of the poem is discussed and the motifs analyzed in the context of intellectual history (time and transience, melancholy of twilight) and sensual experiences and its religious symbolism (contemplation of the sky, the moon as a figure of Virgin Mary). The paper points out the strong bond of the poet with Mary treated as a Muse, guide and object of pure, innocent love
