    Pripovednost v Slavi vojvodine Kranjske. Nekaj pripomb k zgradbi Valvasorjevih pripovedk in njihovim fabulativnim elementom / Narrativität in der Ehre Deß Hertzoghums Crain: Einige Bemerkungen zum Aufbau der Sagen Valvasors und ihren narrativen Elementen

    Izvleček (slovensko) Die Ehre Deß Hertzogthums Crain je tako obsežna, kompleksna in bogata knjižna zapuščina J. V. Valvasorja, da še vedno predstavlja častivreden izziv številnim znanstvenikom in raznovrstnim strokovno-znanstvenim področjem. Izmed številnih možnih pristopov k obravnavanju tega kolosalnega dela se sama tokrat lotevam predvsem vprašanja, do kolikšne mere lahko gledamo na njenega avtorja kot na pripovedovalca fabulativno vsaj deloma učinkovitih »ljudskih«1 in tudi siceršnjih zgodb(ic), čeprav seveda v nemškem jeziku. V tem prispevku torej zasledujem narativnost, pri čemer se omejujem zlasti na analizo pripovednih enot, ki sem jih našla v Slavi in jih imenujem »povedke «: ob ugotavljanju njihovih splošnih značilnosti pa hkrati opozarjam tudi na določene pripovedne postopke, ki potrjujejo empirično zaznavano narativnost teh mest. Abstract (Deutsch) Narrativität in der Ehre Deß Hertzoghums Crain: Einige Bemerkungen zum Aufbau der Sagen Valvasors und ihren narrativen Elementen Die Ehre Deß Hertzogthums Crain stellt ein derart umfangreiches, komplexes und reiches literarisches Erbe J.V.Valvasors dar, dass es für zahlreiche und vielfältige fachwissenschaftliche Bereiche noch immer eine ehrwürdige Herausforderung darstellt. Unter vielen möglichen Ansätzen zur Erörterung dieses kolossalen Werkes beschäftige ich mich selbst diesmal vor allem mit der Frage, inwieweit der Autor dieses Werkes als Erzähler von narrativ zumindest teilweise wirksamen »Volkserzählungen”, volkstümlich gewordenen Erzählungen und auch sonstiger Geschicht(ch)en angesehen werden kann, obwohl er diese natürlich in der deutschen Sprache verfasste. Im vorliegenden Beitrag untersuche ich also die Narrativität, wobei ich mich besonders auf die Analyse der narrativen Einheiten beschränke, die ich in der Ehre gefunden habe und nenne sie »Sagen« (povedke). Beim Feststellen ihrer allgemeinen Charakteristika mache ich aber auch auf bestimmte Erzählverfahren aufmerksam, die die empirisch wahrgenommene Narrativität dieser Stellen bestätigen

    A first principles and mean field investigation of the conformational properties of 5CB

    Although the minimum energy conformation of the mesogenic molecule 4-n-pentyl-4′-cyano-biphenyl (5CB) is known to have an inter-ring torsional angle of 37.0° and an alkyl tail which lies perpendicular to the adjoining phenyl ring, less is known about the conformational properties of the alkyl tail. This paper investigates these properties in both the gas and nematic phase by combining first principles density functional theory calculations with the surface tensor mean field model of Ferrarini et al. (Molec. Phys, 1992, 77, 1). By comparing gas and nematic phase conformer populations, it is found that the nematic mean field selectively favours and disfavours certain conformations of the tail. The conformer distribution is discussed with reference to the results of bulk simulation studies and to C—D bond order parameters measured by NMR experiments

    Healthy employee sleep is important for occupational safety, but the mechanisms that explain the relationships among sleep and safety-related behaviors remain unknown. We draw from Crain, Brossoit, and Fisher's (in press) work, nonwork, and sleep (WNS) framework and Barnes' (2012) model of sleep and self-regulation in organizations to investigate the influence of construction workers' self-reported sleep quantity (i.e., duration) and quality (i.e., feeling well-rest upon awakening, ability to fall asleep and remain asleep) on workplace cognitive failures (i.e., lapses in attention, memory, and action at work) and subsequent workplace safety behaviors (i.e., safety compliance and safety participation) and reports of minor injuries. Construction workers from two public works agencies completed surveys at baseline, 6 months, and 12 months. Our results suggest that workers with more insomnia symptoms on average reported engaging in fewer required and voluntary safety behaviors and were at a greater risk for workplace injuries. These effects were mediated by workplace cognitive failures. In addition, workers with greater sleep insufficiency on average reported lower safety compliance, but this effect was not mediated by workplace cognitive failures. These results have implications for future workplace interventions, suggesting that organizations striving to improve safety should prioritize interventions that will reduce workers' insomnia symptoms and improve their ability to quickly fall asleep and stay asleep throughout the night.
