    Desa Muck je već nekoliko godina najčitanija slovenska autorica, a njezina popularnost među mladim čitateljima pokazala se i kroz akciju Moja najomiljenija knjiga.1 Naime, autorica je pet puta zaredom primila tu nagradu za seriju knjiga o Anici. Autorica je dosad napisala već 23 teksta za djecu i mladež, a najvidljiviji uspjeh postigla je knjigom Lažljiva Suzi za koju je godine 1997. primila najistaknutiju nagradu na području književnosti za mlade u Sloveniji, nagradu Večernica. Njezina djela za mladež na početku njezinog stvaranja bila su namijenjena tinejdžerima, dok je kasnije, serijom knjiga o Anici Pivnik, doprla i do generacije čitatelja početnika. Popularnost književne serije ponovo se rasplamsala u jesen 2008. kad je Televizija Slovenije počela emitirati seriju, snimljenu prema književnoj seriji Anica. Objavila je također dva zapažena romana za odrasle, Panika i Pješčanik boga djeteta. Desa Muck ima mnoštvo prijevoda, također i na hrvatski, pa se može reći da je u posljednjih nekoliko godina gotovo jedina autorica koja je na polju književnosti za mladež prevođena na hrvatski. Neke knjige iz serije Anica uvrštene su u lektiru. U članku nije predstavljena cjelokupna autoričina književna produkcija, već samo njezina realistična proza, budući da jeFor several years now Desa Muck has been the most popular Slovenian author. Her popularity among young readers has been confirmed by the competition entitled My Favourite Book12. The author has been awarded five times in a row for her series of books about Anica. She has written 23 texts for children and youth, but achieved her most notable success with the book entitled Lažljiva Suzi (Lying Suzy), which brought her the most prestigious award for young adult literature in Slovenia, the Večernica award in 1997. At the beginning of her career as an author for young readers, her books were intended for teenagers. With a series of books about Anica Pivnik, however, she has also managed to reach the generation of beginner readers. The popularity of this literary series saw its revival in the autumn of 2008, as the television show based on the literary series Anica was first broadcast on the Slovenian Television. She has also published two novels for adult readers, Panika (Panic) and Pješčanik boga djeteta (The Sandbox of the Child God). Desa Muck's work has been extensively translated into many languages, including Croatian, which makes her virtually the only youth literature author translated into Croatian in the last couple of years. Several books from the series about Anica have been included into obligatory reading literature. The article does not present the entire literary production of the author, but only her realistic prose fiction, since it has been translated into Croatian for the most part, and as such it is more relevant for present analysis.Desa Muck je že nekaj let najbolj brana slovenska avtorica, njena priljubljenost med mladimi bralci pa se kaže tudi v akciji Moja najljubša knjiga,1 za serijo knjig Anica je avtorica petkrat zapovrstjo namreč prejela to nagrado. Avtorica je doslej napisala že 23 besedil za otroke in mladostnike, med katerimi je najvidnejši uspeh dosegla s knjigo Lažniva Suzi, saj je zanjo leta 1997 prejela najpomembnejšo nagrado s področja mladinske književnosti na Slovenskem, večernico. Njena mladinska dela so bila na začetku njenega ustvarjanja namenjena mladostnikom, pozneje pa je s serijo knjig o Anici Pivnik dosegla predvsem generacijo bralcev začetnikov. Popularnost knjižne serije se je ponovno razplamtela jeseni 2008, ko je Televizija Slovenije začela predvajati nanizanke, posnete po knjižni seriji Anica. Izdala je tudi dva odmevna romana za odrasle, Panika in Peskovnik Boga Otroka. Desa Muck ima precej prevodov tudi v hrvaščini, v zadnjih nekaj letih je skorajda edina prevajana avtorica mladinske književnosti v hrvaščino. Nekatere knjige iz serije Anica so uvrščene med domače branje. V članku ni predstavljena celotna avtoričina knjižna produkcija, temveč le njena realistična proza, saj je le-ta v večji meri že prevedena v hrvaščino in s tega stališča za pričujočo obravnavo tudi relevantnejša

    CTCF regulates positioning of the human cystic fibrosis gene in association with a histone deacetylase

    No full text
    AbstractThe nuclear positioning of mammalian genes often correlates with their functional state. For instance, the human cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene associates with the nuclear periphery in its inactive state, but occupies interior positions when active. Treatment with the histone deacetylase inhibitor trichostatin a (TSA) changes the radial positioning of the CFTR gene in HeLa S3 cells. The gene relocates from the nuclear periphery to the nuclear interior. In Calu-3 cells the gene is located in the nuclear interior. To identify potential regulatory elements for the positioning of CFTR, the histone H3 and H4 acetylation patterns of untreated and TSA-treated HeLa S3 and untreated Calu-3 cells were determined by ChIP–chip. Here is a detailed description of the datasets associated with the study by Muck et al. published in the Journal of Cellular Biochemistry in 2012

    The first part of my thesis compares two books of youth authors, Desa Muck and Christine Nostlinger. From Desa's Muck collection Anica I chose two works- Anica in počitnice and Anica in prva ljubezen. From the collection Franceve zgodbe belonging to Christine Nostlinger I chose the books, Franceve počitniške zgodbe and Franceve ljubezenske zgodbe. On the outside both collections are similar. In the case of both authors all of the occurence is being tied up on the main characters, Anica from the collection of Anica and France from the collection Franceve zgodbe. In the literary works of both authors I noticed some similarities. The main characters are completely common children who do not stand out from their peers and both capture events from real life. The language of the authors is adjusted to children with similar age as the main characters. It is easy to understand, simple and sometimes interwines with the youthful manner of expressing. In the second, empirical part I wanted to answer the question if the pupils of the second trinennial are familiar with the authors, Desa Muck and Christine Nostlinger and which of their literary works the know. Analysis of the treated fagments, from the 4th grade textbook Blazno resno popolni of the author Desa Muck and the 5th grade textbook Požvižgamo se na kumaričnega kralja of Christine Nostlinger, show that the pupils did not know the literary work preliminary and got familar with them after they read the fragments

    Animating the image : reflections on character and process in the "The First and Last Loves of Leonardo Lopes"

    No full text
    Includes bibliographical references (leaves 27-30).In reflecting on the process of making the short film "The First and Last Loves of Leonardo Lopes" the author argues against interpretation as a method for working with character and its development. It is contended that the formative unconscious imagers) at the heart of a character requires a director to be more sensory in her/his response and to develop an intimate process of animating the image. The descriptive personal vocabularies of feeling, intuition and sensation are accordingly juxtaposed against prescriptive impersonal intellectual modalities that diminish immediacy as a by-product of its "latent content". Active imagination, poetry and music are seen as more appropriate models for the filmmaker than theories and theses. The author goes on to consider the dialectical reinforcement of interpretive strategies as a result of the economic pressures of the film industry and argues for a more process friendly conception of production. After reflecting on the role and insecurities of the director in a collaborative art form, a motivation is provided for the "natural voice" of the accompanying director's commentary

    Humour in the novels for adults of Desa Muck

    Magistrsko delo je posvečeno analizi humorja v romanih za odrasle Dese Muck, ki je za svoje večdesetletno ustvarjanje na področju žlahtnega humorja leta 2016 prejela Ježkovo nagrado. Predmet analize so vsi do sedaj izdani avtoričini romani za odrasle. To so: Panika (2003), Peskovnik Boga Otroka (2006) in Odred ali Kako osrečiti druge proti njihovi volji (2015). V njih je moč zaslediti značajsko, telesno, poklicno, situacijsko in besedno komiko. Avtorica spretno izrablja različne postopke za ustvarjanje komičnega učinka: karikiranje, ironijo, sarkazem in cinizem. Svoje ocenjujoče razmerje do obravnavane problematike bralcu podaja preko komičnih etoloških književnih vrst. Tako lahko Paniko beremo kot parodijo na ljubezenski roman, Peskovnik Boga Otroka kot družbenokritično satiro, Odred ali Kako osrečiti druge proti njihovi volji pa kot zmes politične satire in groteske z globokim družbenokritičnim sporočilom. Namen obravnavanih romanov nista samo zabava in razvedrilo, saj se v smehu skriva tudi kritičnost. Vsi trije romani za odrasle Dese Muck so torej napisani po zgledu Horacijevega izreka ridendo dicere verum, kar pomeni resnico povedati med smehom.Master\u27s thesis is dedicated to the analysis of humour in the novels for adults of Desa Muck, who in 2016 received the Ježek Award for her decades-long creation in the field of noble humour. The subject of the analysis are all of the author\u27s novels for adults that she has written so far. These are: Panika (2003), Peskovnik Boga Otroka (2006) and Odred ali Kako osrečiti druge proti njihovi volji (2015). In these novels one can find character, physical, profession, situation and verbal comedy. The author skillfully uses various tools to create comic effect: caricature, irony, sarcasm and cynicism. She presents her evaluative relation to the issues of the novels through comic ethological literary types. Thus, the novel Panika can be read as a parody of a romantic novel, Peskovnik Boga Otroka as a sociocritical satire, Odred ali Kako osrečiti druge proti njihovi volji as a mixture of political satire and grotesque with a deep sociocritical message. The purpose of the novels in question is not just fun and entertainment, as laughter also hides criticism. These three of Desa Muck\u27s novels for adults are modelled after Horace\u27s rendition of ridendo dicere verum, which means telling the truth while laughing

    Direct chromatographic resolution of carnitine and O-acylcarnitine enantiomers on a teicoplanin-bonded chiral stationary phase

    R-(-)-Carnitine (vitamin B ) plays an important role in human energy metabolism, by facilitating the transport of long-chained fatty acids across the mitochondrial membranes. Its (S)-enantiomer acts as a competitive inhibitor of carnitine acetyltransferase, causing depletion of the body R-(-)-carnitine stock. Consequently, the separation of carnitine enantiomers is very important both to study their biological activities and to control the enantiomeric purity of pharmaceutical formulations. In the present paper we describe an easy, fast and convenient procedure for the separation of the enantiomers of carnitine and O-acylcarnitines by enantioselective HPLC on a laboratory-made chiral column containing covalently bonded teicoplanin as selector. High enantioselectivity factors (a values ranging from 1.31 to 3.02) and short-time analyses characterize the analytical procedure; in addition, analytes are easily detected by evaporative light scattering with no need for preliminary derivatization. The effects of pH and ionic strength of the mobile phase and of the nature of the organic modifier on the enantioselective separations were also investigated

    Analysis of the series Blazno resno written by Desa Muck

    No full text
    The aim of this paper is to define youth prose and to describe characteristics of literary realism or realistic prose in contemporary children’s prose as well as to analyse the work of Desa Muck, namely her series Blazno resno. The paper presents the author Desa Muck, her life, biography and bibliography. The paper presents and analyse the series Blazno resno: Blazno resno o seksu, Blazno resno popolni, Blazno resno zadeti, Blazno resno slavni and Blazno resno o šoli. The books are analysed according to the following procedure: action development and protagonists, time and place, followed by analysis of the main topics and motifs. The discussed works deal with a growing young person, thus ethics and sexuality are important in this process and analysed in this paper. Sexuality appears in Muck's works either directly or indirectly, because it is presented through relationships among people. I used an extract from the book Blazno resno popolni during my pedagogical work in the Slovenian class. I performed the lesson in the 5th grade of primary school when discussing the topic of good manners

    Weed emergence and seedbank after three years of repetitive shallow cultivation in a muck soil field

    No full text
    Frequent cultivation is often used to control weeds in crops such as lettuce. The efficacy of this technique on weed populations has been evaluated, but the effect on weed emergence and seedbanks is less documented. Studies in mineral soil indicate that soil disturbance can increase both weed emergence and seed persistence depending on where seeds are redistributed in the soil profile. Evaluations done in muck soil are scarce. This study evaluated the effect of two and four repetitive shallow (3.4 to 7.1 cm deep) cultivations on weed emergence and the weed seedbank in muck soil. Cultivation treatments (0, 2 and 4 cultivations using a inter-row rototiller) were done in lettuce plots from 2017 to 2019. Weed density was evaluated by species before each cultivation date and after crop harvest. Viable seedbanks were evaluated by collecting soil samples before and after each growing season and placing them in greenhouse flats. Statistical analyses were based on mixed models. Results showed that shallow cultivation modified the emergence patterns of weeds but did not reduce total emergence during the subsequent years or viable seedbanks. After two seasons without seed inputs, total emergence was reduced by 46.6% and the seedbank was reduced by 31.7% regardless of the cultivation treatment. However, the seedbank of the very abundant common purslane (Portulaca oleracea) remained high.The presentation of the authors' names and (or) special characters in the title of the pdf file of the accepted manuscript may differ slightly from what is displayed on the item page.
