Significación de la poesía de Philip Larkin
No full textPasadas las experiencias de catástrofe de la Primera Guerra, testimoniadas por Wilfred Owen, y las inquietudes de los años treinta, poetizadas por Stephen Spender (motivos de proyectos realizados o en realización) la poesía de Larkin se concentra en detalles de la vida urbana, cultiva la sátira y enfoca los temas de siempre desde perspectivas inusuales. Detrás del presunto provincialismo cabe indagar hasta que punto una posición local no puede alcanzar la universalidad. La experiencia de las "epifanías" es uno de los puntos conflictivos de la crítica; también el escepticismo de Larkin , el conservadorismo, la oposición entre símbolo y realidad, entre influencia extranjera y tradición nacional. El estudio de sus poemas requiere discernir en el proceso visual de incorporación del mundo y su resistencia a los sistemas.Fil: Montezanti, Miguel Angel. Universidad Nacional de La Plata.

Larkin\u27s Toads
No full textThe article discusses the poem Toads by Philip Larkin and argues that it reveals a deep fear of change in the poet. Critical reaction to the poem is examined, and Larkin\u27s use of syntax and rhetoric is explored. The author\u27s assertion that Larkin\u27s fear of change was related to his political conservatism is also touched on

The China firm: American elites and the making of British Colonial society
No full textWhat roles did Americans play in the expanding global empires of the nineteenth century? Thomas M. Larkin examines the Hong Kong–based Augustine Heard & Company, the most prominent American trading firm in treaty-port China, to explore the ways American elites at once made and were made by British colonial society. Following the Heard brothers throughout their firm’s rise and decline, The China Firm reveals how nineteenth-century China’s American elite adapted to colonial culture, helped entrench social and racial hierarchies, and exploited the British imperial project for their own profit as they became increasingly invested in its political affairs and commercial networks.
Through the central narrative of Augustine Heard & Co., Larkin disentangles the ties that bound the United States to China and the British Empire in the nineteenth century. Drawing on a vast range of archival material from Hong Kong, China, Boston, and London, he weaves the local and the global together to trace how Americans gained acceptance into and contributed to the making of colonial societies and world-spanning empires. Uncovering the transimperial lives of these American traders and the complex ways extraimperial communities interacted with British colonialism, The China Firm makes a vital contribution to global histories of nineteenth-century Asia and provides an alternative narrative of British empire
Fulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov state in D-wave superconductors
No full textRecently a few works have been reported on Fulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov (FFLO)state
in d-wave superconductors in layered compounds. In strong contrast to 3D s-wave
superconductors where the stripe like state appears, the square lattice like state
is formed in d-wave superconductors in quasi-2D system and in a magnetic field within the conducting
plane. Indeed there have been reported that FFLO state in beta-(ET) salts and
lambda-(BEDT)_ 2GaC1_ 4,though they are not conclusive. We review our recent works on this
subject. We propose NMR, STM or transport measurement will provide a definitive test for
FFLO state
