Rare earth element and stable isotope geochemistry (d13C and d18O) of phosphorite deposits in the Gafsa Basin, Tunisia
No full textRare earth elements (REE) and stable isotope compositions (?13C and ?18O) of shark teeth and phosphatic coprolites were analyzed from the Lower Maastrichtian layers of the El Haria Formation and two sequences of the Paleocene–Eocene (P/E) Chouabine Formation in the Gafsa Basin (south western of Tunisia) in order to trace the sedimentological, climatic and oceanographic conditions.The REE chemistry and their distribution in the two archives are the same for each of the studied layers indicating that the coprolites and shark teeth experienced the same early diagenetic environments. However major differences occur between the Maastrichtian and the P/E reflecting changes in the depositional conditions. The Early Maastrichtian burial environment tended to be more anoxic with REE derived from reduced FeO. While in the P/E the REE patterns mimic the modern oxic–suboxic seawater, the REE source from remineralisation of organic coating could have more significance.The oxygen isotope compositions of the structural phosphates (?18OPO4) indicate a stable and warm climate during both studied time intervals. A small offset ( 0.4‰) in the ?18O value between the coprolites and shark teeth show minor thermal gradient between bottom and surface water. The pronounced negative shift of 3–4‰ in ?13C values recorded in the upper part of the Chouabine Formation was ascribed to the Paleocene–Eocene boundary. At the same time the lack of negative change in the ?18O is explained by the semi-closed situation of the Gafsa Basin, which situation also played an important role in the evolution of the organic matters in the sediment resulting in the exceptional low ?13C values.<br/

No full textMusikstädte as real and imaginary soundscapes: urban musical images as literary motifs in twentieth-century German modernism
No full textPhDThis study examines German literary images of musical life as part of the wider sound identity of the modern German city at the turn of the twentieth century. Focussing on a forty-year period from 1890 to 1930, synonymous with the emergence of the modern German metropolis as an aesthetic object, the project assesses, compares and contrasts how musical life in the Musikstädte was perceived and portrayed by writers in an increasingly noisy urban environment. How does urban musical life influence and condition city writings? What are the differences and similarities between the writings on various musical cities? Can an urban textual sound identity be derived from these differences and similarities? The approach employed to answer these questions is a new, cross-disciplinary one to urban sound in literature, moving beyond reading the key sounds of the urban soundscape using urban musicology, sensorial anthropology and cultural poetics towards a literary contextualisation of the urban aural experience.
The literary motifs of the symphony, the gramophone and urban noise are put under the spotlight through the analysis of a wide range of modernist works by authors who have a special relationship with music. At the centre of this analysis are the Kaffeehausliteratur authors Hermann Bahr, Alfred Polgar and Peter Altenberg, the then Munich-based author Thomas Mann and the lesser known René Schickele. The analysis of these particular works is framed in the music-geographical context of the Musikstadt and literary underpinnings of this topos, ranging from Ingeborg Bachmann to Hans Mayer and, once again, Thomas Mann. In analysing these texts, the methodological approach devised by Strohm, who identifies the blending of a range of urban sounds as a definition of urban space and identity, is applied. His ideas combine historical literary
analysis, musical history and urban sociology. They are rarely used in the analysis of the auditory environment.Arts and Humanities Research Council

Rudolf Otto filosofo della religione
No full textLo straordinario successo del Sacro (1917), che ha reso celebre Rudolf Otto, ha provocato, per contraccolpo, la diffusione di una figura stilizzata dell’autore, impoverita dall’oblio toccato al resto della sua produzione e da letture parziali e semplificative. Una ricostruzione genetica del modo in cui Otto impone la nozione di «heilig» nel lessico tedesco specializzato, muovendo da Lutero e opponendo al neokantismo una lettura friesiana del trascendentale, fa emergere la qualità filosofica di una teoria del religioso che rivela convergenze insospettate con la fenomenologia husserliana. The extraordinary success of The Holy (1917) made Rudolf Otto famous, but it also contributed to propagate a simplified figure of the author. The rest of his work was condemned to oblivion, which caused misleading interpretations of The Holy itself. A genetic reconstruction of the way in which Otto established the term «heilig» in the technical German proves to be fruitful. When considering his interpretation of Luther and his Fries-based opposition to a neoKantian approach to the concept of «transcendental», the philosophical relevance of Otto’s theory of religion can be fully recognized, as well as unsuspected links to Husserlian phenomenology

A model for fluids in metamorphosed ultramafic rocks III. Mass transfer under amphibolite facies conditions in olivine˗enstatite rocks of the Central Alps, Switzerland
No full textThe high grade metamorphic part of the Penninic zone of the Central Alps is characterized by 1 to 100 meters large ultramafic lenses of originally harzburgitic composition. A usually concentric zonation of these lenses indicates a syntectonic hydrothermal alteration related to the regional metamorphism. Five different zones can be distinguished : 1) original rock (mainly olivine-enstatite-chlorite-Cr-Fe-spinel), 2) hydrated zone (olivine-talc-chlorite-Cr-Fe-spinel ± amphibole), 3) hydrated and carbonatized zone (talc-magnesite-chlorite-amphibole-Fe-spinel), 4) zone strongly enriched in Ca, Al and Si (amphibole-chlorite-Fe-spinel ± magnesite, pentlandite), 5) complex marginal zonation (mono-and bimineralic zones of biotite, amphibole and plagioclase). The spectacular zone boundaries allow reconstruction of fluid-rock reactions in detail. Using temperature and pressure estimations of 580-650 °C and 5 kbar, the fluid composition in the various zones can be estimated : CO₂, O₂ and S₂ increase towards the margins of the lenses, X[CO₂] showing values between 0 and 0.9. Aqueous species concentrations like SiO₂, Ca, A1 and Mg also increase towards the margins. The pH is predicted to vary between 5 and 7. Direction and extent of mass fluxes are estimated on the basis of field observations and various assumptions concerning mass and volume of the zones. Whereas Mg and Fe appear to be internally redistributed, large amounts of Si, Al and Ca are predicted to move in from felsic and mafic country rocks, leading to a volume increase of up to 30 %. The only slightly affected country rocks and stable isotope data exclude a local origin of these elements and suggest a more distant source of the fluid phase. The dominant mass transport mechanism for aqueous species is assumed to be infiltration in a fluid pressure gradient. Locally at zone boundaries, composition — distance plots for Fe indicate a combination of diffusion and infiltration.Le domaine le plus fortement métamorphique de la zone pennique des Alpes centrales est caractérisé par la présence de lentilles ultramafiques métriques à hectométriques d'origine harzburgitique. On observe dans celles-ci une zonation souvent concentrique indiquant une altération hydrothermale liée au métamorphisme régional. Du centre au bord, cinq zones ont été distinguées : 1) roche originale (olivine-enstatite-chlorite-Fe-Cr-Spinelle), 2) zone hydratée (olivine-talc-chlorite-Cr-Fe-spinelle), 3) zone hydratée et carbonatée (talc-magnésite-chlorite-amphibole-Fe-spinelle), 4) zone fortement enrichie en Ca, Al et Si (amphibole-chlorite-Fe-spinelle ± magnésite-pentlandite), 5) zone marginale complexe (diverses zones mono-et biminérales à biotite, amphibole ou plagioclase). Les limites de chaque zone sont très spectaculaires et significatives ; elles permettent de reconstruire les réactions d'interaction entre le fluide et la toche. Sur la base de conditions de température et de pression de 580-650 °C et 5 kbar, la composition du fluide dans les diverses zones peut être déduite et nous constatons que CO₂, O₂ et S₂ augmentent vers l'extérieur des lentilles, X[CO₂] variant entre 0 et 0,9. Les concentrations des espèces aqueuses telle que SiO₂, Ca, Al et Mg augmentent également vers l'extérieur. Le pH varierait entre 5 et 7. A partir de critères de terrain et d'hypothèses sur les modifications de volume et de masse de chaque zone, le sens et la quantité de transferts de masse sont déterminés. Alors que Mg et Fe resteraient constants, de grandes quantités de Si, Al et Ca d'origine externe pénétreraient dans les lentilles ultramafiques en provoquant jusqu'à 30 % d'augmentation de volume. Le fait que les roches encaissantes (gneiss, amphibolite, marbre) ne soient guère altérées indique une origine plus lointaine de la phase fluide, ce qui est confirmé par des analyses d'isotopes stables. Le mécanisme dominant de transport des espèces aqueuses serait celui d'infiltration dans la direction du gradient de pression de la phase fluide. Localement, à la limite des zones, le changement de la composition avec la distance de certains minéraux indique une combinaison de diffusion et infiltration.Pfeifer Hans-Rudolf.
