    Edition and study (mostly linguistic) of a section of an Anglo-Norman translation of the Bible (14th century) : the Acts of the Apostles in MSS B.N. fr. 1 & 9562

    This Edition and Study of the Acts of the Apostles was undertaken with a view to throwing some fresh light on the problems, linguistic and other, raised by the Anglo-Norman Bible. Although quite often mentioned in books dealing with mediaeval biblical translations, this version had not been studied closely in any completed work, and yet seemed to deserve attention. The existence in Paris of two manuscripts, B.N. fr. 1 and 9562, containing Acts in this, version, at once indicated this section for study, since it restricted the main task of research on the original manuscripts to a single place, while yet providing two manuscripts for comparison

    Here is a well-worn book. Its well-creased cover paper is so thick that it feels like cloth. The front cover features a lovely illustration of Quartet under the title and the branch-bending bear over it. The pamphlet offers seven well-chosen Krylov fables: Spectacles; The Wood-Breaking Bear; The Elephant and the Pug; Quartet; The Sightseer in the Museum; The Wolf and the Cat; and The Fox (and his frozen tail and the wolf). This pamphlet has more than its share of stains, scribbles, and tears, and is thus a testimony to being well used for almost sixty years! There is a separate vocabulary for each fable at the end. It was fun for me to figure out which fables were being presented: The Sightseer in the Museum had no illustration and so was difficult. I had to match size of fable and quoted material within the fable. Enjoyable sleuthing! One last entry on the title-page is Kazaxskoe Godusdarstevennoe Uyeblo-Pedagogiyeskoe Izdatelbstvo.Language note: RussianI.A. Krylo

    Title: Crystal Dynamics and Anharmonic Properties of Bi-Pb-Tl Alloys, Author: Aditya P. Roy, Location: ThodeThe crystal dynamics and anharmonic properties have been investigated in disordered alloys of Bi-Pb-Tl using slow neutron spectrometry. Damping of phonons caused by phonon-phonon interaction and the effect of the force constant disorder on the lifetime of the phonons have been studied in the alloys. Measurements of the coefficients of thermal expansion are reported. An experimental method of determining the lattice frequency spectra by coherent inelastic scattering of neutrons from polycrystalline materials is described.ThesisDoctor of Philosophy (PhD

    Migration and dwelling quality in Rotterdam

    No full text
    The intention of this paper is to establish a statistical correlation between migration and the quality and quantity of houses in Rotterdam and environs at a high level of aggregation. Verification or falsification of correlations involving more variables would require a spectrum of data for all municipalities in the Netherlands which is beyond the scope of this paper. This paper presents primary research data of residential migration and the quality of dwellings in and around Rotterdam. It makes a substantive (historical data) and procedural (research process) contribution to knowledge which is of use to under graduate and post graduate students, as well as to researchers in the town and regional planning field.StedebouwkundeArchitectur

    From Highway to Streetway

    No full text
    The city Utrecht is currently growing towards the A12 Highway and the city Nieuwegein. It is facing complexity problems such as increase in density, population and traffic intensities. However, the Highway (A12) has become a physical barrier and separates the urban fabric of Utrecht. This has a negative impact on the city’s qualities due to noise pollutions (over 65 dB) and air pollutions (exhaust fumes of particulate matter and nitrogen dioxide). Objective of this paper is to propose a residential typology configured with the highway that can transform the unhealthy highway environment into a healthy environment. The highway should be seen as a part of the city instead of dissociates it. Technical solutions for noise and air pollution will be introduced on an urban and building scale that enhances the liveability of the dense city and introduces a neighbourhood where people can also live outside.Architectural Engineering and TechnologyArchitecture and The Built Environmen
