Matilde Serao in Sweden. A Voice of "The New Italy"
No full textThis chapter examines the contemporary reception of Matilde Serao's works in Swedish newspapers from 1885 to the first years of the twentieth century. This analysis provides a historical background for understanding why Serao's masterpiece Il paese di cuccagna (1891) was translated in Swedish as early as 1892. In fact, Serao was already known to the Swedish public through the activity of C.D. af Wirsén, an important conservative critic who reviewed her original work and contributed to establishing Serao's reputation as a major contemporary author. Furthermore, examination of recently digitalized Swedish newspapers shows that Serao's short stories were published on at least twenty occasions from 1888 to 1897. These anonymous translations can be attributed with a high degree of probability to the pen of Ellen Lundberg-Nyblom, the translator of Il paese di cuccagna. Swedish reviewers greeted Serao as a master of vivid description and an insightful painter of human passions. At the same time, the fact that Serao, being a woman, was professionally active as a journalist and a newspaper editor attracted attention of Swedish media, transforming the Neapolitan author into a public figure known to a broader audience.Ce chapitre traite de la réception des œuvres de Matilde Serao dans les journaux suédois, de 1885 aux premières années du xxe siècle. Avant la traduction de son chef-d’œuvre Il paese di Cuccagna (1891) dès 1892, Serao était déjà connue en Suède grâce au critique C.D. af Wirsén, qui l’a présentée comme une autrice contemporaine de premier plan. Les traductions anonymes des nouvelles de Serao, publiées entre 1888 et 1897 et attribuées ici à Ellen Lundberg-Nyblom, ont joué un rôle tout aussi important.</p

among pain, life and death as elements that constitutes her poetic ar
Political Discourse and Neoliberal Reform in Mexico 1988-1994.
No full textPhDThis thesis examines the impact of economic liberalism on the dominant source of
legitimation in Mexico - nationalism - during the presidency of Carlos Salinas de
Gortari (1988-94). It asks whether national ideology remained of value as a
legitimising force given the ways in which neoliberalism challenged its social rationale
and looks at the search for a new basis of consensus. The thesis argues that salinismo
continued to find nationalism valuable to maintaining consensus by providing a
formula which could mediate rival individual and social claims. It analyses
nationalism through the content attributed to the individual and the social in political
discourse of the period.
Chapter 1 argues that a relationship has existed between political economy and
national ideology since Mexico's independence. This has been determined by elites
seeking to establish a state sufficiently stable to enable economic development. In the
20th century, conceptions of nationality provided criteria for "nation-building", the
creation of an integrated citizenry free of divisions which threatened stability. Chapter
2 argues that Salinas continued to find nationalism of legitimising value to his own
state reforms, but adapted it to neoliberal priorities.
Chapters 3 and 4 focus on how Salinas dealt in two instances - landholding and
free trade - with conflicts generated by rival conceptions within nationalism and
neoliberalism of the individual and sovereignty. Chapter 5 examines how intellectuals
reassessed nationalist ideology, and how the new models of community they imagined
reflected the search for a legitimising formula functional to the new political economy.
Chapters 6 and 7 argue that opposition parties on Left and Right also sought such a
formula and assessedth e need to mediate individual and social claims.
The thesis contributes to an understanding of the role nationalism has played in
Mexico's capitalist development, shedding light upon its fate within accelerated
modernisation

Diversidad, abundancia y distribución de las Macroalgas en la zona intermareal rocoso en las playas de Salinas, La libertad y Ballenita (Península de Santa Elena-Ecuador, Octubre-Noviembre 2009).
No full textEl presente trabajo es el resultado del análisis de muestras de macroalgas en la Peninsula de Santa Elena (Ecuador) en 3 estaciones del área rocosa en la zona intermareal que corresponde a las playa de Salinas (Base Naval de Salinas), La Libertad (Puerto Pesquero) y Ballenita (Balneario), las cuales fueron colectadas mediante la técnica propuesta por Dawes (1991), utilizando una combinación de transepto lineal y del cuadrante, realizado para octubre y noviembre del 2009. Se aplico la estadística de Shannon-Weaver para diversidad y Bray Curtis para Similaridad.
Se identificaron una total de 21 especies de algas marinas bénticas, de las cuales 9 corresponde a la División Chlorophyta, 8 especies a Rodophyta y 4 especies a Heterocontonphytas. Las Chlorophytas son las mejor representadas con 9 especies. Se obtuvo su mayor abundancia en la zona de La Libertad, en cambio las Heterocontonphytas su mayor abundancia predomino en la Zona de Ballenita, para la zona de Salinas se mantuvo una abundancia media baja.
En cuanto a la diversidad de especies obtenida, se determinó que fue mayor para la playa de Salinasd con (H’ 2.68), seguida de La Libertad co (H’ 2.51) y Ballenita con (H’ 2.42).
Y la Similaridad entre las Playas muestreadas indica que Salinas y Ballenita tienen una Similaridad de 55% aproximadamente, mientras que La Libertad presenta Similaridad con las otras dos estaciones en un 52%.This work is the result of the analysis of samples of macroalgae in the Peninsula de Santa Elena (Ecuador) on 3 stations in the area rocky intertidal zone corresponding to the Beach Salinas (Salinas Naval Base), La Libertad (Fishing Port ) and Ballenita (Spa), which were collected by the technique proposed by Dawes (1991), using a combination of linear and quadrant transept, conducted in October and November 2009.

Feynman motives
No full textThis book presents recent and ongoing research work aimed at understanding the mysterious relation between the computations of Feynman integrals in perturbative quantum field theory and the theory of motives of algebraic varieties and their periods. One of the main questions in the field is understanding when the residues of Feynman integrals in perturbative quantum field theory evaluate to periods of mixed Tate motives. The question originates from the occurrence of multiple zeta values in Feynman integrals calculations observed by Broadhurst and Kreimer.
Two different approaches to the subject are described. The first, a “bottom-up” approach, constructs explicit algebraic varieties and periods from Feynman graphs and parametric Feynman integrals. This approach, which grew out of work of Bloch–Esnault–Kreimer and was more recently developed in joint work of Paolo Aluffi and the author, leads to algebro-geometric and motivic versions of the Feynman rules of quantum field theory and concentrates on explicit constructions of motives and classes in the Grothendieck ring of varieties associated to Feynman integrals. While the varieties obtained in this way can be arbitrarily complicated as motives, the part of the cohomology that is involved in the Feynman integral computation might still be of the special mixed Tate kind. A second, “top-down” approach to the problem, developed in the work of Alain Connes and the author, consists of comparing a Tannakian category constructed out of the data of renormalization of perturbative scalar field theories, obtained in the form of a Riemann–Hilbert correspondence, with Tannakian categories of mixed Tate motives. The book draws connections between these two approaches and gives an overview of other ongoing directions of research in the field, outlining the many connections of perturbative quantum field theory and renormalization to motives, singularity theory, Hodge structures, arithmetic geometry, supermanifolds, algebraic and non-commutative geometry.
The text is aimed at researchers in mathematical physics, high energy physics, number theory and algebraic geometry. Partly based on lecture notes for a graduate course given by the author at Caltech in the fall of 2008, it can also be used by graduate students interested in working in this area
