Holotypus. ZSH H-KU–793, designated here. Derivatio nominis. Refers to the location from which the material was collected (Falkenberg, Bavaria, Germany). Locus typicus. Falkenberg, Bavaria, Germany. Stratum typicum. Schrattenkalk Formation, Upper Schrattenkalk, lower Aptian. Diagnosis. Columnocoenia having 24+s4 septa (often 26–28, up to around 40 in largest corallites) and corallite diameter ranging between 3–4.5 mm; in areas of intense budding, corallite diameters range between 1–2 mm having septa of 20 or less. Distance of corallite centers is 3–6.5 mm. Description. Massive, plocoid colony; corallites are subcircular to elongate in outline. Costosepta arranged radially in corallites of up to around 2 mm in diameter, becoming bilaterally arranged in larger corallites. Three complete cycles with the beginning of a fourth cycle are present in corallites of 3 mm in diameter or larger. Comparison. The new species differs from other Lower Cretaceous species in having larger corallites (C. ksiazkiewiczi MORYCOWA, 1964: 2 –3.5 mm; C. bucovinensis MORYCOWA, 1971: 1.2–2.3 mm; C. elachia BARON- SZABO, 2002: 0.9–1.3 mm). From most Upper Cretaceous species C. falkenbergensis differs in having smaller corallites (C. lamberti ALLOITEAU, 1957: 6 –8.5 mm; C. oppenheimi BEAUVAIS, 1982: 4–6 mm). From the Upper Cretaceous C. hofergrabensis (BEAUVAIS, 1982), the new species differs in having a greater number of septa (always more than 3 cycles of septa in C. falkenbergensis; a maximum of 3 cycles of septa in C. hofergrabensis). Material. ZSH H-KU–793 (Falkenberg, Germany) (holotype); additional specimen (paratype): SNSB-BSPG– 1997 V 85 (BARON- SZABO coll.) (Schrattenkalk Fm., Upper Schrattenkalk, Kürental area, Germany, lower Aptian) (for locality coordinates see APPENDIX TABLE 5). Distribution. Lower Aptian of southern Germany (Upper Schrattenkalk, Bavaria), middle Aptian of Romania. Remarks. MORYCOWA & MARCOPOULOU- DIACANTONI (2002, p. 47–48) already suggested that the Schrattenkalk material assigned to ksiazkiewiczi differed from MORYCOWA’ S species in having larger corallites.Published as part of Baron-Szabo, Rosemarie Christine, 2021, Upper Barremian-lower Aptian scleractinian corals of central Europe (Schrattenkalk Fm., Helvetic Zone, Austria, Germany, Switzerland), pp. 1-199 in Zootaxa 4960 (1) on page 79, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4960.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/469378

Bridging Hebrew and Yiddish: Dvora Baron’s Multilingual Vision in “Ogmat Nefesh”
No full textDvora Baron’s “Ogmat Nefesh” exemplifies the complexities of early 20th-century Jewish multilingualism, offering distinct Hebrew and Yiddish versions of the story to explore intersections of gender, ideology, and identity. This paper draws on theoretical frameworks from Harshav’s concept of the “language of power”, Miron’s notion of “amphibianism”, Even-Zohar’s polysystem theory, and Brenner’s “lingering bilingualism” to examine how Baron’s bilingual authorship shapes her narrative strategies and critiques systemic inequities. Through close readings of key passages, it analyzes how her linguistic choices influence character portrayal, narrative tone, and thematic emphasis across the two versions. Situating “Ogmat Nefesh” within the historical contexts of Eastern European and Palestinian Jewish communities, the study also considers Baron’s engagement with Zionist and diasporic frameworks and her feminist critique of patriarchal structures. Finally, Baron’s personal experiences of exile and literary seclusion further illuminate the interplay between individual circumstances and cultural production in her work. By engaging with secondary scholarship and feminist perspectives, this study highlights Baron’s contributions to early 20th-century feminist writing and her enduring relevance to debates on multilingualism and cultural identity in Jewish literature

Practical approach to diastolic dysfunction in light of the new guidelines and clinical applications in the operating room and in the intensive care
No full textThere is growing evidence both in the perioperative period and in the field of intensive care (ICU) on the association between left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) and worse outcomes in patients. The recent American Society of Echocardiography and European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging joint recommendations have tried to simplify the diagnosis and the grading of LVDD. However, both an often unknown pre-morbid LV diastolic function and the presence of several confounders—i.e., use of vasopressors, positive pressure ventilation, volume loading—make the proposed parameters difficult to interpret, especially in the ICU. Among the proposed parameters for diagnosis and grading of LVDD, the two tissue Doppler imaging-derived variables e′ and E/e′ seem most reliable. However, these are not devoid of limitations. In the present review, we aim at rationalizing the applicability of the recent recommendations to the perioperative and ICU areas, discussing the clinical meaning and echocardiographic findings of different grades of LVDD, describing the impact of LVDD on patients’ outcomes and providing some hints on the management of patients with LVDD. © 2018, The Author(s)
The nature of Christian mysticism in the thought of Baron von Huegell and George Tyrrell
No full textThis thesis seeks to establish the place of Baron von aigel and George Tyrrell in the revival of interest in mysticism at the beginning of the present century. Though leading figures in the modernist movement in the Roman Catholic Church, their collaboration on the subject of mysticism was central to their friendship and work. They helped to
retrieve the central concerns of mystical theology after a retreat from mysticism which had affected the Church since the condemnation of Quietism in 1699. Their account of Christian mysticism, which involved a critique of Buddhism, neo-Platonism and pantheism, rested on a worldaffirming
attitude to creation, a balance between divine transcendence
and immanence and the articulation of a legitimate panentleism. It also involved a positive acceptance of the bodily-spiritual unity of human nature and ordinary experience as the locus of mystical encounter with
God.
Their account also emphasised the reality of direct contact between God and the individual, and the affective and cognitive dimensions of mystical experience. They asserted the centrality of mystical union as a dynamic communion of life, love and action which is the primary goal of the Christian life. They emphasised the necessity of contemplation, understood not as passive inaction, but as a profound energising of the soul. Asceticism, the embracing of suffering, self-discipline and a right ordering of human affection, was also judged indispensable. Moreover,
they believed that only in the context of the intellectual and institutional elements of religion, does mysticism find its true theological locus in Christian life and reflection. Their comprehensive definition of mysticism opened up the possibility of understanding both the uniqueness of Christian mysticism, and the reality and value of non-Christian forms of mystical experience as genuine encounters with the divine. Accepting a universal call to mysticism, they held the mystical way to be the way to full humanity which is also the individual's realisation of divinity
