    "Die Quelle des Lebens, der Liebe. Des Hasses und des Todes" : Mutter-Tochter Beziehungen bei Herta Müller, Aglaja Veteranyi, Carmen Francesca Banciu und Gabriela Adameșteanu

    No full text
    This article deals with the representation of motherdaughter relationships in novels by Herta Müller, Aglaja Veteranyi, Carmen Francesca Banciu and Gabriela Adamesteanu, all of them born in Romania. Herta Müller and Aglaja Veterani constantly wrote in German, while Carmen Francesca Banciu changed her language after emigrating to Germany and Gabriela Adameºteanu’s language has always been Romanian. Mother-daughter relationships are analysed in regard of female genealogy, but also considering their complexity and ambiguity. It is shown that representations of mother-daughter-relationships are depending rather on individual and psychological criteria than the author’s cultural or ethnic affiliation. Maybe a larger study, which could not be made in this article, could reveal more detailed results

    No full text
    The bestselling Victorian author Ouida reveals in her novels, and, in particular, Held in Bondage, an extraordinary knowledge od Dante, by using characters and themes from the Commedia. The Paolo and Francesca theme actually constitutes part of the plot of the novel and is to be found in many of her other works, short stories and non-fiction writing

    Regulation of maize Ac/Ds transposition by replication and DNA methylation

    No full text
    In maize the transposable elements Activator/Dissociation (Ac/Ds) transpose shortly after replication from one of the two resulting chromatids ("chromatid selectivity"). A model was suggested that explains this phenomenon as a consequence of different Ac transposase binding to holo-, hemi- and unmethylated transposon ends (Wang et al., 1996). It assumes that before replication the element is holomethylated and does not transpose because TPase can not bind to the transposon ends. Shortly after replication one of the two differentially hemimethylated daughter transposons should become transposition competent. However, DNA methylation-mediated replication dependence does not completely explain the behavior of Ac/Ds transposition. In several studies performed in monocot hosts, it was found that in a transient assay Ac/Ds element excision from extrachromosomal geminivirus vectors occurs only during vector replication, although the transfected DNAs were not Cmethylated. In this work the correlation between Ds transposition, DNA replication and DNA methylation in the dicot species Petunia hybrida was studied. Ds reporter vectors harboring TYLCV (Tomato Yellow Leaf Curl Virus) geminivirus replicon sequences and replicating in transfected petunia cells were constructed. It has been shown that the transposition of a Ds element from an extrachromosomal vector in petunia cells is regulated by DNA replication in a methylation-dependent and -independent mode. Holomethylation completely inhibits Ds excision from a non-replicating plasmid, whereas Ds transposition is restored by replication. Moreover, Ds elements that are hemimethylated on one DNA strand transpose in the absence of replication, whereas methylation on the complementary DNA strand results in at least 6.3-fold reduced excision frequencies. These data strongly support the transposition model of Wang et al. (1996). Beyond that, Ds transposition is strongly promoted by replication also in the absence of methylation. It has been shown that in petunia cells, unlike monocot hosts, replication is not a prerequisite for Ds transposition, nevertheless it enhances Ds transposition by at least a factor of 7.5. Moreover, replication promotes the formation of a predominant excision footprint. Implications on the mechanism and regulation of Ac/Ds transposition are discussed

    A DH-Leavened Musicological Toolbox

    No full text
    Graduate-level training in music research methodologies tends to ignore digital humanities work and overlook the use of digital tools created in support of new forms of reading. Training instead focuses on source material in the student’s area of interest. This material includes secondary and primary (archival) resources, as well as information resources, such as: monuments of music and critical editions; indexes; bibliographies and thematic catalogs; dictionaries and encyclopedias; digital libraries of scores or editions; and databases of period-specific newspapers or journals. Graduate students taking research methods courses already have a toolbox built from their experiences as musicians and students of music, including the ability to read and interpret music notation, to understand theoretical and analytical concepts in music, as well as a command of music history, including the canon of musical works. Digital humanities has become a major area of academic endeavor at the “interface of technological development, epistemological change and methodological concerns." An important characteristic of digital humanities research has been its interdisciplinarity. We argue that graduate training in musicology needs to include coverage of methodologies applied by digital humanists in support of new forms of reading, not only to broaden the canon of research topics in musicology, but also to build common ground with researchers of other disciplines. We propose that librarians are well positioned to provide this expertise and training

    A Twitter Case Study for Assessing Digital Sound

    No full text
    Academic and cultural heritage institutions around the world have made measurable strides in the development of digital sound archives oriented towards research and access, but their impact on scholarship and society has been little studied. Traditionally, impact has been measured by citations; yet these are problematic metrics for non-traditional outputs like sound recordings. Social media data provide a promising avenue of investigation for measuring scholarly as well as societal impact. Twitter in particular has been shown to provide a high number of references for cultural and research outputs in all disciplines. This study analyzes Twitter references pertaining to the collections of five digital sound archives: British Library Sounds, Europeana Sounds, the Internet Archive Audio Archive, PennSound and UbuWeb. Using text analysis methods to identify high frequency events and trends, and labeling them with a rubric designed for measuring the impact of digital heritage resources, this study provides preliminary insights on user values as they relate to digital sound collections. Despite the limitations of using social media data, the evidence gathered in this case study characterizes aspects of the use of digital sound collections, and may point to future priorities for the digital preservation of sound.Peer reviewe
