LITERARY HISTORIOGRAPHY AND THE PROBLEM OF THE AUTHOR: MIHAI IOVĂNEL’S “HISTORY” AND RECENT DEVELOPMENTS IN AUTHORSHIP STUDIES
No full textLiterary Historiography and the Problem of the Author: Mihai Iovănel’s History and Recent Developments in Authorship Studies. The present paper examines the dynamics between literary historiography and authorship studies and the way in which these problems related to Mihai Iovănel’s recent History. Ciorogar argues that authorship theories have always determined the workings of canonicity. Furthermore, the metamorphoses of literary histories could be viewed, he insists, as a series of conceptual revolutions. Consequently, arguments related to authorship have given rise to both new fields of research and disciplines. Finally, Ciorogar also suggests that the evolution of literary criticism and theory is more or less coeval with the history of auctorial models.

REZUMAT. Istoriografia literară și problema autorului: Istoria lui Mihai Iovănel și noi dezvoltări în studiile de auctorialitate. Lucrarea de față examinează dinamica relațiilor dintre istoriografia literară și studiile de auctorialitate, precum și modul în care aceste două problemă se raportează la recenta Istorie publicată de Mihai Iovănel. Teza principală e aceea conform căreia teoriile auctoriale ar determina modurile de funcționare a canonicității. Mai mult, metamorfozele istoriilor literare ar putea fi privite ca o serie de revoluții conceptuale. În consecință, argumentele și dezbaterile centrate în jurul conceptului de autor au dat naștere atât unor noi domenii de cercetare, cât și altor discipline. În cele din urmă, textul sugerează că evoluția criticii și a teoriei literare reprezintă, astfel, istoria modelelor auctoriale.

Lucian Rotariu, Jilava: O radiografie socială a unui penitenciar, Editura Ars Docendi, București, 2016, 190 p.: Jilava: A social radiography of a prison, Lucian Rotariu, Ars Docendi, Bucharest, 2016
No full textThis paper is a review of Jilava: O radiografie socială a unui penitenciar (en. Jilava: a penitentiary’s social radiography) written by the sociologist PhD Lucian Rotariu. Doing time is a topical subject in the studies conducted by scholars from social disciplines. In his book the roles, norms, social relations and conditions observed in a Romanian prison are analyzed from a sociological perspective. Using a qualitative approach, the author interviewed 38 inmates from Bucharest-Jilava Prison. Following a pointillist perspective, where each social sequence has a place and time in the inside world, the author managed to offer an honest, equidistant and professional study for all the social actors (researchers, practitioners) interested in the prison subject
Mihai Sin – suprafețele prozei
No full textThe author clings from the very beginning to the substance of the harmlesss immediacy. Inside the benign, daytime writing, expressed through small, seemingly insignificant gesture, it is revealed, exasperatingly and unsettling slowly, the hideous figure of the absolute evil, it is revealed the bordering hell, the hell itself, on the line where the fragile human faces its intrinsically evil, but also its infernal otherness. Without any irony, but with the addition of substantial steel lucidity, the writing of Mihai Sin is a frowning aspect of French moralism, a mix of prose, essays and pamphlets, and vision is that of an angry Candide, a Candide obviously more skeptical than Voltaire himself. The great stake is actually the moral manifesto, ultimate and realistic at the same time. It’s about death, about all its forms, from the individual to that of an entire world
SOME THEORETICAL SHORTCOMINGS IN MIHAI IOVĂNEL’S “HISTORY OF CONTEMPORARY ROMANIAN LITERATURE: 1990-2020”
No full textSome Theoretical Shortcomings in Mihai Iovănel’s History of Contemporary Romanian Literature: 1990-2020. This paper is an analysis of some of the concepts (posthuman, capitalist realism, transnational) used in Mihai Iovănel’s History of Contemporary Romanian Literature: 1990-2020, pointing out the way in which the author borrows some terms from current global debates and uses them as labels, without their theoretical backgrounds and foundation. This echoes another misunderstanding in Romanian literary studies, that of the term postmodernism, which is, Clinci argues, another example of self-colonization.

REZUMAT. Câteva probleme teoretice în Istoria literaturii române contemporane: 1990-2020 a lui Mihai Iovănel. Acest text este o analiză a câtorva concepte (postuman, realism capitalist, transnaţional) utilizate în Istoria literaturii române contemporane: 1990-2020 a lui Mihai Iovănel, care arată cum autorul împrumută unii termeni din dezbaterile globale actuale și le folosește drept etichete, fără baza sau fundalul lor teoretic. Acest lucru reia o altă problemă a studiilor literare românești, cea a termenului de postmodernism, ca un alt exemplu de autocolonizare.

Evoluții politice și geostrategice în regiunea Mării Negre înainte și după căderea comunismului. Elemente pentru o sociologie a relațiilor internaționale: Political and Geostrategical Evolutions in the Black Sea Region before and after the Fall of Communism. Elements for a Sociology of International Relations
No full textThe end of the Cold War also brought the end of the bipolar geopolitical system. The regional level of analysis regained its pre-Cold War importance. The text investigates the context in which the Black Sea region received a new strategic shape and, simultaneously, a new geopolitical importance. The instruments used by this analysis are especially those of the sociology of international relations. A special accent regards Romania's position in the Black Sea security complex

No full textRegulation of gene expression during maize endosperm development
No full textMy dissertation consists of two chapters that have been formatted into two manuscripts. Both of them relate to endosperm-specific gene expression in maize by a multigene family. Multigenic traits are very common in plants and cause diversity. Nutritional quality is such a trait and one of its factors is the composition and relative
expression of storage protein genes, known as zeins in maize. They represent a medium-size gene family distributed over several chromosomes and unlinked
locations. Two inbreds were selected to analyze allelic and non-allelic variability among the α-zeins. Genes were copied to unlinked sites before and after
allotetraploidization of maize, but before transposition enlarged intergenic regions in a haplotype specific manner. Once genes were copied, expression of donor
genes was reduced relative to new copies. Epigenetic regulation appeared to have contributed to silencing older copies because some of them could be
reactivated when endosperm was maintained as cultured cells. Bisulfite sequencing of the promoter region also showed distinct methylation patterns of
separate gene clusters as well as different tissues, possibly reflecting position effects on regulatory mechanisms as a result of inserting copies at unlinked
locations. Seed mutants with non-vitreous endosperm play an important role in the regulation of α-zein gene expression. Although a number of genes affecting
endosperm vitreousness have already been isolated, it has been difficult to clone opaque7 (o7) – the last in the series of three high-lysine corn mutants – mainly
because of its low penetrance in many genetic backgrounds. To overcome these difficulties, a combination of map-based cloning and transposon tagging was undertaken. An o7 candidate gene, based on map position, contained a 12-bp deletion in the second exon of an acyl-CoA synthetate (ACS)-like gene. A second allele was generated by transposon tagging, with a Dissociation (Ds) element inserting ~500 bp downstream of the deletion, in the same exon. Although zein synthesis appeared to be unaltered in o7-ref and protein accumulation changed only slightly, PBs exhibited striking membrane invaginations. A plausible model consistent with these observations is that the ACS enzyme plays a key role in membrane biogenesis and that altered PBs render the seed non-vitreous.Ph.

Chen-like Inequalities for Submanifolds in Kähler Manifolds Admitting Semi-Symmetric Non-Metric Connections
No full textThe geometry of submanifolds in Kähler manifolds is an important research topic. In the present paper, we study submanifolds in complex space forms admitting a semi-symmetric non-metric connection. We prove the Chen–Ricci inequality, Chen basic inequality, and a generalized Euler inequality for such submanifolds. These inequalities provide estimations of the mean curvature (the main extrinsic invariants) in terms of intrinsic invariants: Ricci curvature, the Chen invariant, and scalar curvature. In the proofs, we use the sectional curvature of a semi-symmetric, non-metric connection recently defined by A. Mihai and the first author, as well as its properties
