Supplemental Tables for the Manuscript : Effect of an intramammary lipopolysaccharide challenge on the hindgut microbial composition and fermentation of dairy cattle experiencing intermittent subacute ruminal acidosis
No full textOur hypothesis is that a transient subacute ruminal acidosis (SARA) challenge will result in microbial changes due to large undigested carbohydrates bypassing the rumen and being fermented in the hindgut, and these changes will be more prominent after an LPS challenge due to the systemic effects of the LPS. To test this 18 early-lactating Simmental cows were divided into three groups (n = 6), two were fed a SARA-inducing feeding regime, one was fed a control (CON) diet, with either 60% or 40% concentrate, respectively. On d 30, one SARA group (SARA-LPS) and the CON group (CON-LPS) were intramammarily challenged with a single dose of 50 µg LPS from E. coli (O26:B6), while the remaining six SARA (SARA-PLA) received a placebo. Feces from the cows were collected and analyzed for pH and short chain fatty acids SCFA, as well as DNA was extracted for 16S rRNA analysis. Microbial analysis was performed using QIIME2. The data here is a statistical analysis of the operational taxonomic units (OTUs) that were measured in the feces between dairy cows fed either a control or a SARA challenge diet (Supplementary Table 1), the statistical analysis of the OTUs measured in feces of dairy cows fed control diet and receiving a LPS infusion (CON-LPS) or a SARA diet receiving either a LPS (SARA-LPS) or placebo infusion (SARA-PLA; Supplementary Table 2). As well this repository includes a Spearman's correlation coefficient matrix between statistically significant identified genera of fecal microbes and the fermentation characteristics of feces (short chain fatty acids SCFA; pH)

Sara Gossett Crigler Collection - Accession 614
No full textThe Sara Gossett Crigler Collection consists of a microfiche copy of her book titled, Education For Girls And Women In Upper South Carolina Prior to 1890 with Related Miscellaneous Articles: A Compilation by Mrs. Henry Towles Crigler (Sara Gossett Crigler), self-published in Greenville, SC on April 15, 1956. This book also includes many anecdotes and reminiscences of Sara’ family including a section devoted to the slaves owned and later freed after the Civil War by her family. The book is dedicated by the author, Sara Gossett Crigler (1886-1966), to her mother Sallie Brown Gossett (1859-1942) and her aunt Mary Brown Mahon (1861-1948) who were both graduates of Williamston Female College in 1877 and 1879 respectively. The 170 page volume would be useful to anyone doing research on the education of women in South Carolina during the 19th century. The original copy is housed at the South Carolina Historical Society as SCHS 509 and was dedicated and signed by the author, “For the Charleston Library Society” on July 10, 1964.

Materia-autore = Author-Matter
No full textThe etymology of the word author refers to an act of creation, an act of augmentation, from the Latin verb augere. Author instantiates creation, the expansion of the pre-existing. In 1967 Roland Barthes declared the death of the author in his famous essay to state once more that the crisis is that of the author as a single subjectivity and as a term that condenses prestige, undermined by the de-subjectivation strategies of automatism, fortuity and fragmentation of the historical avant-gardes, as well as by the machinic act and by the reproducibility of the second avant-gardes.
Fifty years after Barthes’ paradigmatic formula, this lack of authorship appears to be a successful brand. The ten- sions between the anomie of matter, the law that establishes authorship and the economy that makes the work pos- sible, invoke discordant perspectives. Artists make the self-destruction of their work the real work, and appeal is made for the demolition of architectures, whether by a recognised author or not, in order to re-design, or better still, re-claim the territory. Artificial intelligence consolidates its logics and its design by progressively shedding human ingenuity. The space of criticism becomes, finally, increasingly ephemeral. However, there is an acceptation of criti- cism that is, rather than an individual ‘signature’, an exploration and explanation of how design makes theory.
The binomial author-matter seeks to mark these tensions and contradictions: the featured term author is main- tained to underline the persistence of that prestigious subjectivity, at the very moment when the rhetoric of “mat- ter as an author” promises other forms of authorship
Sara Winthrop Smith letter to Frances Casement, August 14, 1887
No full textLetter written to Frances Casement from Sara Winthrop Smith of Cincinnati, Ohio, August 14, 1887. Winthrop expresses the challenges of generating support for the suffrage movement among the conservative residents of her city, and encourages the creation of clear materials that make the argument for women's suffrage to be more widely distributed.
This item comes from the Frances Jennings Casement Papers, a manuscript collection comprised of letters and association records related to the founding and leadership of the Ohio Woman Suffrage Association. Casement (1840-1928) was born in Painesville, Ohio, and graduated from Painesville Academy and Willoughby Female Seminary. Her father, Charles Casement, supported abolition and women's suffrage and encouraged Frances to be active in social causes. Frances Casement established the Painesville Equal Rights Association in 1883, and shortly after became involved in the Ohio Woman Suffrage Association, serving as its president from 1885 to 1888
Il fantastico nella narrativa di Romana Petri: il caso de "La donna delle Azzorre"
No full textL’articolo propone una lettura del romanzo La donna delle Azzorre di Romana Petri, scrittrice ormai affermata che, sulle orme di Antonio Tabucchi, sceglie il Portogallo come patria elettiva. L’opera, che condensa in sé topoi e stilemi costanti nella produzione dell’autrice, è interpretata alla luce degli studi sul fantastico al femminile, secondo le cui risultanze nella scrittura delle donne l’incontro con il perturbante avviene in un’atmosfera di apertura e accoglienza, molto lontana dagli effetti di sconvolgimento e terrore dell’Unheimliche tradizionale. Lo spazio della sperduta isola di Pico nelle Azzorre, infatti, diviene lo scenario in cui la protagonista e voce narrante fa esperienza della vita dei morti ed entra in contatto con l’oltre, che irrompe nel presente grazie ad un tempo fluido ed osmotico. Attraverso le vicende dei personaggi, portoghesi emigrati in America del nord in cerca di lavoro, si delinea la contrapposizione tra l’universo ctonio dell’isola e la spazialità delle società occidentali avanzate, immerse in un tempo alienato. La scrittura della Petri diventa emblematica del fantastico al femminile, in quanto si fa portavoce di un discorso sulla realtà che veicola un messaggio di libertà e utopia
