    Emil Fahrenkamp: Bauten und Projekte für Berlin

    No full text
    Thema der vorliegenden Arbeit ist die umfassende Aufarbeitung und Dokumentation der Bauten und Projekte Emil Fahrenkamps (*1885, 1966) in Berlin und Potsdam-Babelsberg sowie die kritische Einordnung seiner Arbeiten in den Kontext der Baugeschichte des 20. Jahrhunderts. Den zentralen Untersuchungsgegenstand bildet, neben der gebaudespezifischen Erfassung der Bau- und Planungsprozesse und der Gebaudebeschreibung Fahrenkamps grosstadtische Arbeiten und Entwurfe in ihrem gesellschaftlichen Kontext zu analysieren. Zeitlich umfasst die Arbeitsphase Fahrenkamps in Berlin die Jahre zwischen 1920 und 1945, in denen er seine bauliche Aktivitaten sowohl fur private Bauherrn als auch fur offentliche Auftraggeber etablieren und ausbauen konnte. Emil Fahrenkamp galt bisher als ein Vertreter der Moderne in Deutschland. Dieses fest gefugte Bild entstand durch die einseitige Gleichsetzung seiner Architektur mit dem Shell-Haus, das in den Jahren 192932 nach seinen Planen in Berlin errichtet wurde und das zur Ikone grosstadtischen Bauens in der baugeschichtlichen Bewertung geworden ist. Die vorliegende Arbeit sucht diese Sicht auf Emil Fahrenkamp kritisch zu hinterfragen und zu differenzieren. Indem sie exemplarisch seine Arbeiten fur Berlin aufarbeitet, gelingt eine neue Sicht seiner architektonischen Intention und damit eine Neubewertung seiner Bedeutung in der deutschen Baugeschichte des 20. Jahrhunderts.Architectur

    The role of Prdm9 in the house mouse hybrid sterility model

    No full text
    (English) Hybrid sterility is a phenomenon representing reproductive isolation between closely related species and thus assuring the process of speciation. Hybrid sterility is a complex polygenic trait and the most significant advance in its study is achieved in Drosophila melanogaster. Nearly half century ago Forejt and Ivanyi mapped the first hybrid sterility genetic locus in vertebrates (Hybrid sterility 1, Hst1) in crosses of wild mice with laboratory inbred strains where the male offspring is sterile. Further mapping of the locus led to discovery of a gene called PR domain zinc finger protein 9 (Prdm9), a histone methyltransferase, whose deficiency causes meiotic arrest and sterility in mice. Furthermore, it was found that Prdm9 defines the hotspot placement in meiotic recombination by posting trimethylation marks on lysine residues 4 and 36 of histone 3 hence explaining the observed defects in its absence during meiosis. Nonetheless, its exact role in molecular mechanism of hybrid sterility is yet unclear. Prdm9 expression is present during the stage of formation of meiotic DNA double-strand breaks and is a hint about the time of hybrid sterility initiation. Phenotypically in the case of male mouse hybrid sterility is observed incomplete chromosome synapsis, meiotic arrest at mid-to-late..

    Choral Works of Emil Hradecký

    No full text
    This thesis deals with the figure of contemporary Czech composer Emil Hradecký with a special respect to choral compositions. In the first chapter the author introduces Emil Hradecký as a mUSlC teacher, composer and publisher. In the following chapter she describes Hradecký's music work in general, inc1uding his methodological handbooks and instructive pieces. The core of the thesis is the part which focuses on Hradecký's choral works. It contains a complete list of his choral works and analysis of several works which il1ustrate his various compositional styles. The significance of this thesis is in its survey of Hradecký's choral works, especially due to the fact that a monograph about this composer has not been published yet. The author hopes that this thesis might contribute to extending of the general knowledge about this composer
