Peter Krausz : Les paysages
No full textRetrospective of paintings by the artist of Romanian origin, made between 1992 and 1998 around the concept of landscape - an exhibition conceived as the complement of another one curated by Krausz. Roy discusses this unfamiliar aspect of Krausz's multidisciplinary work, traces its historical references (the tradition of fresco), then describes the 24 works from the four series featured in the exhibition. Finally, the author addresses the issues of expression of sites and stratification of time. Includes technical information on works in the exhibition, and a bibliography on landscape 2 p.; 4 bibl. ref
Letter from Roy E. Weaver to Tsuneo Iwata, April 21, 1942

Weaver, president of First National Bank, Turlock California, to Tsuneo Iwata, president of Turlock Social Club, in regards to mass removal.The Nisaburo Aibara Collection features materials from the Turlock Social Club, a local Japanese-American community group active between 1939 and 1970. It contains documents regarding the Stockton, Turlock and Merced Assembly Centers and Japanese American Citizens League chapters. The Collection also features correspondences with reactions, responses, and preparations for the forced evacuation. Additionally, the Collection has records on the Central California Cantaloupe Company, Turlock Farm Corporation, Turlock Japanese Society, and family records and funeral service programs of Japanese-American residents of Turlock
Evolutionary relationships of Heimioporus and Boletellus (Boletales), with an emphasis on Australian taxa including new species and new combinations in Aureoboletus, Hemileccinum and Xerocomus
No full textBoletellus and Heimioporus, two genera of Boletaceae with ornamented basidiospores, are shown to be distinct genera on the basis of phylogenetic analyses of nuclear ribosomal large-subunit and translation elongation-factor 1α DNA sequences. Comparison of spore ornamentation type-longitudinally ribbed in Boletellus v. punctate, alveolate-reticulate in Heimioporus-are further evidence for distinction. Analyses of multiple accessions from the Americas, Asia and Australia support the monophyly of Heimioporus and a \u27core Boletellus\u27 clade, containing the type species, B. ananas (M.A.Curt.) Murrill, and approximately seven additional species. Tests of alternative phylogenetic topologies could not reject monophyly of a more inclusive group containing the core Boletellus clade and six other species. Heimioporus australis Fechner & Halling, H. cooloolae Fechner & Halling, Boletellus deceptivus Halling & Fechner, B. reminiscens Halling & Fechner and B. sinapipes Fechner, K.Syme, R.Rob. & Halling are described as new species. Phylogenetic analyses also support the following new combinations: Aureoboletus projectellus (Murrill) Halling, A. mirabilis (Murrill) Halling, Hemileccinum subglabripes (Peck) Halling and the new name, Xerocomus tenax Nuhn & Halling
Regional integration fifty years after the treaty of Rome. The EU, Asia, Africa and the Americas.
No full textThe European Union has been the pioneer and undisputed
leader of regional integration processes. Since its inception in
the 1950s, following the Schuman Declaration that set in motion
Jean Monnet’s innovative idea to join together European coal
and steel industries, Europe has offered a useful model for
regional integration. Strengthened by the 1957 Treaty of Rome
(exactly half a century ago), this bold entity was later transformed
into the European Union by the Maastricht Treaty.
Having successfully accomplished its primary goal (“to make
war unthinkable and materially impossible”), the EU is currently
facing challenges associated with its expansion and the deepening
of its pooled sovereignty. On the other hand, the effects
of the EU in international relations are of paramount relevance.
While the forceful transposition of national and regional structures
into other regions is a historical error, the essence of the
EU as a model to be adapted by other regions is a viable
approach to enhance stability and welfare. In this regard, this
volume examines the current challenges of the EU and the perspectives
of regional integration in Africa, Asia and Latin
America
Genève, Bibliothèque de Genève, Ms. fr. 179 : Jean d’Auton, Epistre d’Hector au roy
No full textIn 1511, the Benedictine Jean d\u27Auton (around 1466-1528), chronicler at the court of Louis XII, initiated a contest to write fictional letters to the king. For this contest, he wrote the Epistre d\u27Hector au roy, which was answered, among others, by Jean Lemaire de Belges with his Epistre du roy Loys à Hector. This Geneva manuscript begins with a full-page illustration, executed by an artist named Maître des Entrées, active in Lyon. It depicts Hector presenting a book to a satyr in front of an army of soldiers in armor, some of whom are crowned with the poets’ laurel wreath. The numerous references to antiquity, textual as well as visual, are typical for the humanist milieu of Lyon, which included the owner of this manuscript, Jean Sala, half-brother of the famous author and antiquities enthusiast Pierre Sala.Online Since: 2019-10-1

Australasian sequestrate fungi 18: Solioccasus polychromus gen. & sp. nov., a richly colored, tropical to subtropical, hypogeous fungus
No full textSolioccasus polychromus gen. & sp. nov., the most brightly colored hypogeous fungus known, is described from Papua New Guinea and tropical northern Australia south into subtropical forests along the Queensland coast and coastal mountains to near Brisbane. Phylogenetic analysis of molecular data places it as a sister genus to Bothia in the Boletineae, a clade of predominantly ectomycorrhizal boletes. Ectomycorrhizal trees, such as members of the Myrtaceae (Eucalyptus, Corymbia, Lophostemon, Melaleuca spp.) and Allocasuarina littoralis, were present usually in mixture or in some cases dominant, so we infer some or all of them to be among the ectomycorrhizal hosts of S. polychromus.Cover image—Solioccasus polychromus, an Australasian, tropical to subtropical, hypogeous member of the Boletineae.

Paquimé: Chihuahua
No full textLa información de esta miniguía (1992) se

Brown.Existen argumentos que indican el desarrollo autóctono de Paquimé en el contexto de la Cultura Salado de Oasis América. Otros afirman que fue el resultado de la invasión de una élite del México central. Así se generó un puesto de comercio foráneo dedicado a la producción de plumas de guacamayas, al intercambio de conchas, cerámica, cobre, etc. Di Peso afirma que existieron relaciones con los pochtecas. Los fechamientos de la zona arqueológica están aún en discusión. Di Peso propuso tres periodos y nueve fases. Los estudios de los últimos años mantienen los periodos, pero modifican las f ases.</p
