    The Author of the Alexander Romance

    No full text
    This paper, which is based on a portion of the introduction of the author’s edition of Il Romanzo di Alessandro (Mondadori: Fondazione Valla 2007), surveys the generic components of the Alexander Romance in an attempt to arrive at a definition of the work. The argument builds on Merkelbach’s categorisation of elements and uses Fusillo’s insight into the novel as an ‘encyclopaedic genre’ to propose that ‘historical novel’ is not, as Hägg contended, a misnomer for the work. The main components I discuss are: ‘life’; praxeis; chreiai; Cynic elements, including choliambic poetry and utopian perspectives; and the Egyptian aspects of the narrative. A concluding jeu d’esprit offers a characterisation of the putative author, his antecedents and his process of composition.Richard Stoneman was for 25 years editor for classics at Croom Helm and then Routledge. In 1997 he was appointed an Honorary Fellow in the department of classics, University of Exeter. After retiring from publishing in 2006 he has been pursuing his researches on the Alexander legends and teaching a course on the subject at Exeter. His Penguin translation of the Alexander Romance was published in 1991, and a volume of translated Legends of Alexander the Great appeared from Everyman in 1994. Also in 1994 he co-edited Greek Fiction with John Morgan. His edition of the Greek recensions of the Alexander Romance was published (volume I) by the Fondazione Valla in 2007 – volumes II and III will follow over the next few years – and his Alexander the Great: A Life in Legend appeared from Yale University Press in spring 2008. He is the author of a number of other books on Greek history and travel, and is writing a book on oracles

    Estudio del crecimiento tumoral en un modelo Kirschner Panetta con efecto de Interleucina-2

    Incluye tablas y graficas.El cáncer es una de las principales causas de muerte en el mundo. La Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS) define el cáncer como un grupo amplio de enfermedades que pueden afectar cualquier órgano o tejido del cuerpo, también conocidas como tumores malignos o neoplasias malignas. Cada año, el cáncer causa aproximadamente 10 millones de muertes, lo que resulta en un desenlace trágico para muchas familias. Esta situación es provocada por la proliferación descontrolada de células dañadas que pueden diseminarse por todo el cuerpo. Dada esta realidad, la epidemiología desempeña un papel crucial en el estudio de los diferentes modelos matemáticos propuestos para comprender y combatir el cáncer. La falta de información cuantitativa ha sido un desafío, principalmente debido a las limitaciones en la experimentación con seres humanos. Sin embargo, los modelos matemáticos proporcionan una herramienta valiosa para explorar las dinámicas de la enfermedad y sus posibles tratamientos. El modelo estudiado en este trabajo es el modelo de Kirschner y Panetta, que se basa en el modelo de Lotka-Volterra. Este sistema de ecuaciones diferenciales es fundamental para el estudio de la dinámica poblacional biológica. El modelo de Kirschner y Panetta considera dos ecuaciones diferenciales ordinarias y ha sido modificado para contribuir al desarrollo de modelos epidemiológicos que se basan en factores determinantes, predicciones y control de factores relacionados con la salud y las enfermedades. Estos modelos también estudian la dinámica y distribución de las enfermedades virales en una población.Introducción. -- 1 Marco referencial. -- 1.1 Antecedentes del problema. -- 1.2 Modelo de lotka-volterra. -- 1.3 Mejoras en los terminos de la ecuacion. -- 1.4 Modelo de kuznetsov y taylor. -- 1.5 Modelo de inmunoterapia del tumor kirschner-panetta. -- 1.6 Puntos fijos. -- 1.7 Estabilidad local de puntos fijos. -- 2 Materiales y métodos. -- 3 Resultados. -- 3.1 Puntos fijos del sistema ce-ct-me. -- 3.2 Estabilidad de los puntos fijos del sistema ce-ct-me. -- 4 Análisis de resultados. -- 5 Conclusiones. – Bibliografía. -- Resumen analitico especializado.Informe final modalidad trabajo de grado como requisito para optar por el título de Licenciado en MatemáticasPregradoLicenciado(a) en Matemática

    „... daß einem leid tut, wie er aufgehört hat, deutsch zu sein“ - Alexander von Humboldt, Preußen und Amerika

    AbstractWithin the context of the recent „Prussia Tricentennial 2001“, this paper encourages a different view of Prussia by offering a new look on the writings and activities of one of its most famous citizens, Alexander von Humboldt. Starting with the traditional (and problematic) image of Prussia focussed on the Hohenzollern and, above all, Friedrich II, it highlights the problems between Prussian and German historiography on one side, and the author of „Cosmos“ and his world-wide prestige on the other. Interestingly enough, the tensions or misunderstandings between Alexander and his home country can be dated back to the Humboldt family, i.e. to Wilhelm from Humboldt who noted, in a letter to his wife, how his brother had „stopped to be German“. Alexander von Humboldt's cosmopolitanism and the characteristic development of his scientific conceptions, building a globalized and globalizing praxis based upon a scientific network and continous comparisons in global scale, allow us to discover new dimensions in Humboldtian science and thinking as well as promising perspectives for understanding Alexander von Humboldt's role and significance for transdisciplinary science today -and a different view of Prussia and cultural identity in Europe beyond the well-known stereotypes
