This version of the chapter is in EnglishThe essays in this volume each probe an aspect of the relationship between parliamentary constituencies and interest groups in the workings of the parliament at Westminster between the mid-sixteenth and mid-nineteenth centuries, during which period it went from being the representative assembly of England and Wales, to include Scotland after 1707 and Ireland after 1801, rendering it a truly ‘British’ parliament.

Komponieren für die Arbeiterschaft: Huldreich Georg Früh als Festspielkomponist
No full textIn seinen Lebenserinnerungen beschreibt Kurt Früh die Zusammenarbeit mit seinem Bruder Huldreich Georg mit Wärme und aufrichtiger Bewunderung: 1 Damit spricht der Theatermacher; Schriftsteller und Regisseur Früh eine Epoche der Volksbühne Zürich an - die 193Oer-Jahre -, die als ihr Höhepunkt bezeichnet werden kann.2 Nach einer Orientierungsphase, die wenig politisch bestimmt war und in der auch schwankhafte Stücke aufs Programm gesetzt wurden, entwickelte sich die Bühne ab 1932 zu einem Spielort des proletarischen Theaters mit Verbindung zum Schaffen Bertolt Brechts und mit starken Banden zur Sozialdemokratie. lmmer stärker wurde aber auch der Einfluss der Kommunistischen Partei der Schweiz, an deren Veranstaltungen die Volksbühne beteiligt war.+ ID: 589925 + Serientitel: Schriften der Eugen und Yoshida Früh-Stiftun
Integrated urban flood design in the United States and the Netherlands
No full textSpatial design integrates social, cultural, economic, and political perspectives with natural site conditions and man-made construction to plan for sustainable urban development. The current flood-risk-related challenges induced by climate change place pressure on designing cities in which both natural and man-made conditions can be imbalanced. Creating a purely engineered line of flood defense to restore this balance does not always work. The idea of living more closely with water includes the discipline of spatial design more into flood risk management than the current dominant paradigm. Following the probability approach defined as risk = probability × consequences, the current Dutch paradigm is focused on reducing the probability with dikes; the United States focuses on reduction of consequences by evacuation and recovery. This chapter focuses on urban design and planning strategies for reducing flood risk not just by a flood defense line such as a dike, but also reducing risk by means of urban development behind the dike. Integrated urban flood design must integrate site-built environment characteristics and natural systems, and simultaneously solve challenges posed by hazards. Effective design, therefore, must be conducted on the basis of hydraulic engineering knowledge, leading to spatial designs that introduce resilient urban qualities. Two cases for this approach are presented and compared: Vlissingen, the Netherlands and Galveston, Texas, United States.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository 'You share, we take care!' - Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Environmental Technology and DesignSpatial Planning and Strateg
Research Note: The Organization and Utilization of Archives Related to Postwar Japanese Art– UCLA Library's Yoshida Yoshie Collection as Example
No full textThe author took the opportunity to observe the archive-related institutions at University of California (UCLA) while attending the “Engaged Critic, Radical Art: Yoshida Yoshie in Art and Performance” symposium, held at UCLA on February 20, 2018 to commemorate the gift of the materials donated by the art critic Yoshida Yoshie (1929-2016).
As more and more of those who played important roles in Japan's postwar art have died, frequently their archives have been received by public institutions. On the other hand, those involved in the arts and their descendants have often turned not to Japanese institutions, but rather to overseas institutions with more experience in handling archives and offering more opportunities for their utilization, when they decide on donations and transfers of archives. One of the biggest reasons for such decisions is the fact that Japan has yet to create a fully functional system whereby archives related to modern and contemporary art can be received and utilized as research materials. For this reason, the author set out to personally experience the practices of overseas institutions that are leaders in the field and then reflect on those findings in this project.
This article is a report on the UCLA Library's Yoshida Yoshie Papers. The efforts of those involved meant that the materials were not scattered prior to their receipt by the UCLA Library and other appropriate institutions. I further confirmed the entire scale of the Yoshida Yoshie Papers, based on the currently publicly available information and my own observations. This article presents the methods used at the UCLA Library, specifically how they described their archival materials in the finding aid which utilizes ISAD(G) and how information is presented on their website.journal articl
Discovery of the Yamato Meteorites in 1969
No full textAbstractThe first discovery of Yamato Meteorites by an inland survey team of the Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition (JARE) in 1969 was reported by Yoshida et al. (1971). However, there are important events, issues, and data related to this discovery that have so far not been published. Prior to the author's departure for Antarctica, M. Gorai suggested the author to consider collecting meteorites during the trip. On 21 December 1969, when geodetic measurements for the 250 km span of a triangulation chain were approaching its completion, members of the inland survey team collected three stones on the surface of the ice sheet in the southeastern marginal area of the Yamato Mountains. The author realized that these rocks were possibly meteorites, recalled the suggestion by M. Gorai, and requested all members of the team to collect other possible meteorites while conducting the geodetic survey. After returning to Japan, the nine stones collected in Antarctica were all identified as meteorites by M. Gorai. The concept of a mechanism by which meteorites became concentrated in the area in which they were found, involving the flow, structure, and ablation of the ice sheet, was developed in the field in 1969 during the collection program, and was mentioned briefly in Yoshida et al. (1971); a schematic figure was shown in a Japanese newspaper in the same year. With all these as background, further collections of meteorites in the Yamato Mountains were conducted in the 1973 and 1974–1975 seasons, and a project involving the collection of meteorites was formally incorporated as an important component of the work undertaken by the geology group within JARE from the 1975–1976 season onwards
A rare case of adenocarcinoma of the bladder following ileocystoplasty
No full textThis is a report of a case of well-differentiated adenocarcinoma found 14 years after ileocystoplasty. Total cystectomy and right ureterocutaneostomy were performed, and the origin of this tumor was proved to be the ileal part of ileocystoplasty. This is a rare case of adenocarcinoma in the ileal part of ileocystoplasty, because a review of the literature revealed only three other such cases
