    Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão. Programa de Pós-Gradução em Letras/Ingrês e Literatura Correspondente.Analise da construção da ambigüidade na narrativa do filme Laranja Mecânica, de Stanley Kubrick (1971). Investiga a relação identificação-afastamento que o filme promove entre o protagonista e o espectador, assim como o modo peculiar como o filme trata a violência. Observa um movimento em direção à ambigüidade que se desenvolve ao longo da obra do diretor, iniciando com estruturas e personagens mais tradicionais, abandonando gradualmente as posições morais seguras. Três filmes são também discutidos como uma amostra da obra do diretor, de modo a traçar a evolução de seu estilo e sua visão de mundo: Dr. Fantástico ou Como Aprendi a Parar de me Preocupar e Amar a Bomba (1963), 2001- Uma Odisséia no Espaço (1968) e De Olhos Bem Fechados (1999)

    The genome sequence of the small elephant hawk moth, Deilephila porcellus (Linnaeus, 1758)

    No full text
    We present a genome assembly from an individual male Deilephila porcellus (the small elephant hawk moth; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Sphingidae). The genome sequence is 402 megabases in span. The majority of the assembly (99.99%) is scaffolded into 29 chromosomal pseudomolecules, with the Z sex chromosome assembled

    Red-shouldered hawk (Buteo lineatus) predation on multiple life stages of anurans in Bryan County, Oklahoma

    On 14 April 2016 at 10:54 CDT, from approximately 20 m away,Caldwell (KC) observed a Red-shouldered Hawk (Buteo lineatus) takinga large tadpole (>5 cm in length) from the surface of an experimentalpond tank at Southeastern Oklahoma State University in Bryan County,Oklahoma. The tank is one of 12 tanks in an outdoor aquatics facility, allof which are 6 m in diameter and 2.5 m deep. KC was unable to identifythe species of tadpole; however, the only anuran species observed in thetanks at the time were bullfrogs (Lithobates catesbeiana) and southernleopard frogs (L. sphenocephalus). The hawk immediately perchedon top of the 2.5 m high perimeter fence surrounding the tanks andconsumed the tadpole

    The genome sequence of the elephant hawk-moth, Deilephila elpenor (Linnaeus, 1758)

    No full text
    We present a genome assembly from an individual female Deilephila elpenor (the Elephant Hawk-moth; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Sphingidae). The genome sequence is 414.1 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 30 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the Z and W sex chromosomes. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 15.37 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 11,748 protein coding genes

    Dendrochronology and the Complex History of the William Hawk Cabin, Salt Lake City, Utah

    No full text
    The William Hawk Cabin is considered one of the oldest pioneer structures in Salt Lake City, Utah. Tradition suggests that it was originally constructed in 1848 inside the "Old Fort" established by Mormon settlers in 1847, and then moved to its current location between 1850 and 1852. We examined tree rings from 23 Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii var. glauca) and eight white fir (Abies concolor) timbers in the cabin to (1) evaluate and refine the suggested range of construction dates of 1848-1852, (2) verify or refute the suggestion that the cabin was originally constructed within the Old Fort, (3) identify any evidence of use of deadwood, timber re-use, stockpiling, or renovation, and (4) determine the provenance of the timbers. We built a 209-year floating chronology from 36 cores crossdated visually and verified statistically with COFECHA. Statistically significant (p < 0.0001) comparisons with established regional chronologies indicated that the Hawk Cabin chronology extends from 1651-1859. Cutting dates ranged from 1832-1860, with strong clusters in 1846 and 1851-1852, and a weaker cluster in 1855. The 1851-1852 cluster accounted for over half of the cutting dates, suggesting that a version of the cabin was built by 1852, and the later timbers were incorporated as part of a major renovation in or after 1860. The 1846 cluster may reflect wood salvaged from road building efforts by the Donner-Reed Party, and suggests that a version of the cabin may have been originally built in the Old Fort, although probably not by Hawk. These results confirm the historical significance of the William Hawk Cabin, and the complexity of its construction history argues for large sample depths in dendroarchaeological studies in semi-arid regions. © 2016 by The Tree-Ring Society.This item is part of the Tree-Ring Research (formerly Tree-Ring Bulletin) archive.
