Das ästhetische Element in der historischen Erkenntnis. Croce und Windelband
No full textThe author makes a comparison between Benedetto Croce’s academic
writing of 1893, La storia ridotta sotto il concetto generale dell’arte, and Wilhelm
Windelband’s Rektoratsrede of 1894, Geschichte und Naturwissenschaft. By means
of this comparison, which is focused on the concepts of intuition and interest, the author
can reconstruct the dense network of sources of the theory of the history outlined by the
young Croce and by Windelband: from Lazarus to Simmel, from Köstlin to Labriola
A quantitative screen for metabolic enzyme structures reveals patterns of assembly across the yeast metabolic network
No full text© The Author(s), 2019. This article is distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution License. The definitive version was published in Noree, C., Begovich, K., Samilo, D., Broyer, R., Monfort, E., & Wilhelm, J. E. A quantitative screen for metabolic enzyme structures reveals patterns of assembly across the yeast metabolic network. Molecular Biology of the Cell, 30(21), (2019): 2721-2736, doi:10.1091/mbc.E19-04-0224.Despite the proliferation of proteins that can form filaments or phase-separated condensates, it remains unclear how this behavior is distributed over biological networks. We have found that 60 of the 440 yeast metabolic enzymes robustly form structures, including 10 that assemble within mitochondria. Additionally, the ability to assemble is enriched at branch points on several metabolic pathways. The assembly of enzymes at the first branch point in de novo purine biosynthesis is coordinated, hierarchical, and based on their position within the pathway, while the enzymes at the second branch point are recruited to RNA stress granules. Consistent with distinct classes of structures being deployed at different control points in a pathway, we find that the first enzyme in the pathway, PRPP synthetase, forms evolutionarily conserved filaments that are sequestered in the nucleus in higher eukaryotes. These findings provide a roadmap for identifying additional conserved features of metabolic regulation by condensates/filaments.We thank Douglass Forbes for comments on the manuscript, Susanne Rafelski for the gift of the pVTU-mito-dsRed plasmid, and Brian Zid for the gift of the pKT-mNeonGreen plasmid.

Jesus Christ as Poetic Symbol: Wilhelm Bousset’s Contribution to the Faith-History Debate
No full textWilhelm Bousset, a leading member of the religionsgeschichtliche school and author of a seminal work on early Christology, Kyrios Christos, is typically regarded by reviewers of his work as a classic nineteenth-century liberal who sought a secure foundation for faith in the historical Jesus. However, this view of Bousset fails to appreciate the significant development of his theological perspective on the relationship between faith and history, a perspective that underwent a profound shift due to the influence of the English historian Thomas Carlyle and the Kantian philosopher Jakob Friedrich Fries. It is the influence of these two figures that enables Bousset to justify a full-scale flight from history and to seek faith’s foundation elsewhere, in the poetic symbol of Jesus Christ. The resulting solution to the problem of faith and history represents a unique and compelling alternative to the solutions of the leading theologians and New Testament scholars of the early twentieth century
Family altruism and incentives
No full textThe author builds on the altruistic model of the family, to explore the strategic interaction between altruistic parents, and selfish children, when children's efforts are endogenous. If there is uncertainty about the amount of income the children will realize, and if parents have imperfect information, the children have an incentive to exert little effort, and to rely on their parent's altruistically motivated transfers. Because of this, parents face a tradeoff between the insurance that bequests implicitly provide their children, and the disincentive to work prompted by their altruism. The author shows that if parents can credibly commit to a pattern of transfers, they will choose not to compensate children in bad outcomes, as much as predicted by the standard (no uncertainty, no asymmetric information) dynastic model of the family. Alternatively, parents may choose to forgo any insurance, and offer a fixed level of bequest, to elicit greater effort from their children. The optimal transfers structure that the author derives, reconciles the predictions of the altruistic family model, with much of the existing evidence on inter-generational transfers, which suggests that parents compensate only partially, or not at all, for earnings differentials among their children. Moreover, the author shows that Ricardian equivalence holds in this setup, except when non-negativity constraints are binding.Economic Theory&Research,Environmental Economics&Policies,Health Economics&Finance,Educational Sciences,Safety Nets and Transfers
Wilhelm of Moerbeke’s Translatory Activity in Relation to Some Aristotle’s Treatises
No full textThe paper consists of two parts. In the first part the author confronts the results of modern research with the earliest mention on the translatory activity of Wilhelm of Moerbeke which comes from the 14th c. from Stams. It is pin-pointed here that after R. A. Gauthier's research one cannot bring the contacts with St Thomas Aquinas down to the formula „ad instantiam”, and the translations of Aristotle are not crucial for the relation between these two Dominican fathers. The contemporary stylistic analysis as a method of identifying the translator proves that the Middle Ages' tradition is right to the fact that Moerbeke worked on all Aristotle's writings on natural philosophy and on the whole Metaphysics. This analysis negates, however, that Moerbeke is the author of the revision of Ethics. The Middle Ages' note does not mention anything about Wilhelm's translations of Aristotle's logic. This paper discusses then the accuracy of the term „transtulit” in view of the fact that half of the translations of Aristotle by the Flemmish translator are revisions. Moerbeke both in those passages where he approved of the ancient translation and in those where he changed it he did it with every responsibility as a translator.
In the second part the author discusses some common questions concerning the research on the revisions on Metaphysics, Physics, De generatione et corruptione and De anima. It is concerned first with a common Greek model used by the translator (this does not concern De anima) which turned out to be, thanks to G. Vuillemin-Diem's research, the code Vindobonesis phil. gr. 100 which once belonged to Wilhelm. Then the author discusses the following questions: the division of the manuscriptial tradition of those treatises into a numerous Paris tradition and few independent evidences of the Italian origin, complex character of the revisions' autographs, the problem of double revisions of those treatises which comes out in the light of the analysis of differences as to the number and character of the elements of revision which occur in the tradition. Finally, the author writes about a different circulation of two versions of particular treatises which is illustrated by the diagram placed at the end of the paper
