Praesphaerammina, a new genus of Cenozoic deep-water agglutinated foraminifera from the Carpathian flysch deposits
No full textThe genus Praesphaerammina Kaminski and Filipcscu is newly described based on a revision of the type species Cystammina subgaleata Vasicek 1947. The genus differs from the Holocene genus Sphaerammina Cushman 1910 emend. Loeblich and Tappan 1964, in possessing a less embracing final chamber and in its interio-areal to areal aperture that lacks any tooth. The definition of the subfamily Sphaeramminae is accordingly emended as well. The genus is common in the Eocene of the Carpathian flysch deposits, but the type species Praesphaerammina subgaleata (Vasicek 1947) is also observed in the Caribbean region and West Africa, where it ranges into the Miocene
NICOLAE FILIPESCU ȘI CONSERVATORISMUL IDEALIST
No full textNicolae Filipescu was a conservative, action-oriented politician who pleaded for idealism in politics. His belief was that the era of liberal mimetism could only be overcome by a true idealistic reaction, which meant deeply assuming an ideal in politics, not just the option for a change in the surface of public life. He is one among the few Romanian authors who claim that politics of the idea is more important than the policy of deed, and that means a party policy that has the right philosophy and morality. However, Filipescu's idealism is vitalist, Anglo-Saxon orientated and does not deny the idea of material success, but on the contrary
A look over the microhistory: the Filipescu boyars from Drajna, Prahova county
No full textThis paperwork shows a piece of history regarding a boyar family, Filipescu, from Drajna, Prahova County. The reason of our choice was that we need to rediscover the past of our aristocrats in a region that was considered to be the attribute of the free peasants.
The aristocratic families that lived in this area, Filipescu, Balaceanu, Macovei etc. had a great influence on the inhabitants, their deeds being remembered by their vassals.
We have used in our research, instruments of oral history, such as the interview and the photography, and regarding the field of interest, this paper-work can be integrated in the area of local history. We tried to show how influential the boyars were in the community, taking into consideration both positive and negative aspects.
For this study, we have used primary sources, the manuscript of a descendant of the Filipescu family, Dumitru Kretzulescu-Warthiadi, agricultural engineer, the holder of an impressive collection of documents. We have also seen secondary sources, for example the volumes of Nicolae Iorga and Dumitru I. Brezeanu Teisani, Documents from the Teleajen Valley
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
The response of modern benthic foraminiferal assemblages to water mass properties along the southern shelf of the Marmara Sea.
No full textSimulation of the ELIGANT-GN array performances at ELI-NP for gamma beam energies larger than neutron threshold
No full textPerformance of the ELIGANT-GN array being developed at ELI-NP was evaluated using dedicated GEANT4 simulation code. The array is designed to consist of 17 LaBr3:Ce and 17 CeBr3 detectors as well as 33 BC501A and 29 6Li-glass detectors. The energy and time responses of the detectors were studied giving information on gamma and neutron absolute detection efficiencies of the array. A planned day-one experiment regarding the gamma and neutron decay from GDR in 208Pb is discussed and, based on simulations, the data analysis procedure is proposed. The detection efficiencies as well as the count rates estimations are presented

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
