In Defence of "the Lesser Cousin of History": An Interview with Rohan Wilson
No full textFew branches of postcolonial literature are as contested \ud
as the historical fiction of settler societies. This interview with the Australian historical novelist Rohan Wilson, author of The Roving Party (2011) and To Name Those Lost (2014), explores the intersections between truth, accuracy, and existential authenticity in his fictional accounts of nineteenth-century Tasmania. Wilson offers \ud
a nuanced yet robust defence of fiction’s role in narrating colonial history. He explains his intentions in writing two linked yet distinctive novels of the frontier—one that focuses on the “Black War” of the 1820s and 1830s, and another that explores how racial violence is refracted by capitalism in subsequent decades

KŌDA ROHAN\nTsuyu Dandan and Nineteenth Century English Literature
No full textpdfKōda Rohan recorded explanatory notes for Tsuyu Dandan (1889) as follows. "One: The ineptitude of the writing aside, to say that my literary devices are quite something and that Edward George Bulwer Lytton and William Makepeace Thackeray are really nothing is a big lie, for in fact I indulge in mere magic tricks. The discerning reader will quickly penetrate them."
Here with the coyness of a neophyte author, a self-assertive attitude which emphasizes the use of as a narrative technique can be seen. This study will deal with four questions.
① What function did Kōda Rohan think that narrative technique had in Edo popular fiction? I will first investigate the topology of , clarifying this technique which overflows the boundaries of , , in connection with Lytton and Thackeray. Naturally, this will result in ③ an investigation as to whether or not Lytton and Thackeray were borrowed from Tsubouchi Shōyō's Shōsetsu shinzui, Tō sei shosei katagi, or translations. If so,④ the question of why it was not George Eliot or Charles Dickens naturally arises. Through questions ② to④ I would like to clarify the relationship between Koda Rohan and nineteenth century English literature and to capture anew the stratifications of Rohan's literature.conference pape
Improvement of African indigenous vegetables for stable delivery of micronutrients
No full textAmaranth (Amaranthus spp.) is cultivated in over 80 countries as a preferred leafy green vegetable crop and is often cited as having unrealized potential to reduce multiple micronutrient deficiencies occurring at high rates in the countries where it is cultivated. Despite widespread cultivation and a wealth of genetic resources held by USDA GRIN and international germplasms, amaranth remains designated as an orphan crop due to a lack of development; producers are not often provided with options of cultivars as a leafy green vegetable. The goal of this dissertation research was to narrow the information gap preventing an effective cultivar development platform which serves goals of both farmers and organizations which promote Amaranthus among other indigenous vegetables to reduce prevalence of micronutrient deficiencies. Specific objectives were to: 1) establish breeding priorities to develop breeding lines and cultivars which can meet the needs of farmers and goals of international development goals focusing on orphan crops, 2) screen genetic diversity for traits of interest in entries which can either be utilized as breeding lines or fast-tracked for cultivar development 3) confirm consistency of genotype effect for prioritized traits and observe whether effect of genotype by environment interaction is sufficiently low to successfully select for these traits. Genotype effect on accumulation of Fe content was found to be substantial and consistently significant, with one entry identified which accumulated high-source quantities of Fe across multiple environments including environments in which the mean Fe content across entries to fall well below high-source thresholds. A screening method to verify successful outcrossing events using SSRs was developed to facilitate breeding efforts with this crop which historically has relied on visible markers given the high rate of self-pollination, small, and highly numerous flowers on inflorescences of Amaranthus. The culmination of this study presents a case study of the first characterization of a crop to reliably provide high-source levels of three essential micronutrients which is aligned with the cultural preferences of populations often deficient in those micronutrients where it is cultivated, providing a platform for development of similar commodities toward alleviation of hidden hunger and wide-spread micronutrient deficiencies.Ph.D.Includes bibliographical referencesby David Rohan Byrne
Local orthorhombic phase in zirconium oxide nanocrystals: insights from X-ray pair distribution function analysis
No full textZirconium dioxide (ZrO2) and hafnium dioxide (HfO2) have emerged as promising alternatives to conventional ferroelectric materials. Understanding the crystal phases of these oxides under different conditions is crucial for optimizing their properties. There are several theories for the (anti)ferroelectric properties; however, comprehensive analysis, particularly at the local structure level, is lacking. In this study, we investigate the local structure of ZrO2 nanocrystals using X-ray pair distribution function (PDF) analysis, revealing an unexpected local orthorhombic distortion irrespective of crystallite size. This finding suggests the potential existence of an intermediate orthorhombic phase during the microscopic switching pathway observed in previous studies. Additionally, we explore the influence of crystallite size and surface effects on the PDF. These results contribute to a deeper understanding of the structural dynamics in ZrO2 and offer insights for the design of next-generation ferroelectric materials.RP and JDR thank the University of Basel and the SNF Eccellenza funding scheme (project No. 194172).
