Crossing boundaries: Suzuki Bokushi (1770-1842) and the rural elite of Tokugawa Japan
No full textThis thesis centres on a member of the rural elite, Suzuki Bokushi (1770-1842) of Echigo, and his social environment in Tokugawa Japan (1603-1868). Through a case study of the interaction between one individual’s life and his social conditions, the thesis participates in the ongoing scholarly reassessment of Tokugawa society, which had an apparently rigid political and social structure, yet many features that suggest a prototype of modernity. Bokushi’s life was multifaceted. He was a village administrator, landlord, pawnbroker, poet, painter, and great communicator, with a nation-wide correspondence network that crossed various social classes. His remote location and humble lifestyle notwithstanding, he was eventually able to publish a book about his region, Japan’s ‘snow country’. This thesis argues that Bokushi’s life epitomises both the potentiality and the restrictions of his historical moment for a well-placed member of the rural elite. An examination of Bokushi’s life and texts certainly challenges residual notions of the rigidity of social boundaries between the urban and the rural, between social statuses, and between cultural and intellectual communities. But Bokushi’s own actions and attitudes also show the force of conservative social values in provincial life. His activities were also still restrained by the external environment in terms of geographical remoteness, infrastructural limitation, political restrictions, cultural norms and the exigencies of human relationships. Bokushi’s life shows that in his day, Tokugawa social frameworks were being shaken and reshaped by people’s new attempts to cross conventional boundaries, within, however, a range of freedom that had both external and internal limits

The Suzuki Diaries: Sustainability in Action
No full textGiven the number of gloom and doom environmental films flooding the market, the more optimistic approach of The Suzuki Diaries: Sustainability in Action is refreshing. David Suzuki, geneticist, environmentalist, author and broadcaster, takes his daughter, Sarika, around Europe to investigate some of the more proactive approaches various countries have take that lessen their impact on the environment. Suzuki is quick to note that many of these projects were not done to help the environment, per se, but done for practical, economic and quality of life reasons
Perfluoroalkanesulfonyl linker units for solid phase organic synthesis
No full textDiversity linker units exploit the cleavage step in solid phase synthesis for the incorporation of further diversity into target molecules. A solid-supported perfluorosulfonyl linker unit would allow cleavage of substrates using transition-metal- catalysed cross-coupling reactions. This thesis describes several approaches towards a perfluoroalkanesulfonyl diversity linker from diiodoperfluoroalkanes. Early work concentrated on the reaction of diiodoperfluoroalkanes with eugenol. The resulting perfluoroalkyliodides were attached to Wang resin using Mitsunobu chemistry. However, stability problems prevented the generation of resin bound perfluoroalkanesulfonic acids and the route was abandoned. A bis-perfluoroalkanesulfonyl chloride linker unit was prepared from diiodoperfluoroalkanes by generation of the bis-sodium sulfite salt and subsequent chlorination. Optimisation studies using design software allowed preparation of multigram quantities in 60 - 70% yield. Model solution phase synthesis of bis- perfluoroalkanesulfonamides and bis-perfluoroalkanesulfonate esters showed the feasibility of attaching the bis-sulfonyl chloride to amino resins and loading phenols. Diversity cleavage was demonstrated using Suzuki and Stille reactions and optimised by screening parallel arrays of reaction conditions. Loading the bis-sulfonyl chloride onto TentaGel® gave access to solid supported porfluorosulfonate osters and diversity cleavage was shown using Suzuki reactions. However, the linkage to solid supports proved to be unstable and an additional spacer unit was required if the linker was to find widespread use. To this end, a second generation perfluoroalkanesulfonyl linker unit was developed from ally I alcohol and diiodoperfluoroalkanes. Oxidation to a perfluoroalkanesulfonyl chloride was achieved using a novel reaction employing N- chlorosuccinimide. Several methods for loading this linker unit onto a solid support were investigated but none were successful and this chemistry requires further development before it offers a practical perfluoroalkanesulfonyl diversity linker
