    From the correspondence of M. P. Drahomanov: two unknown letters to M. V. Vodovozov of 1894

    No full text
    This publication introduces into scientific discourse little-known letters of prominent Ukrainian scholar, politician and publicist M. P. Drahomanov (1841-1895), discovered in the fond of V. I. Vernadsky in the Archive of the Russian Academy of Sciences in Moscow. Two letters written in the latest period of the life of M. P. Drahomanov, which are addressed to young economist and publicist Mykola Vasyliovych Vodovozov (1870-1896), expand the source base not only for M. P. Drahomanov’s biographers. They show his ties with Russian liberals, who later formed the core of the party of constitutional democrats. A preface to the publication contains a biography of M. V. Vodovozov, and the author makes a hypothesis on the history of an acquaintance of the correspondent and the addressee, which could be connected with M. V. Vodovozov’s brother, V. V. Vodovozov, and members of the “Shelter Fraternity”, and through them with M. P. Drahomanov. The analysis of the published letters proves that M. P. Drahomanov endeavored to widen through the “Shelter Fraternity” members his contacts with democratic circles in Russia, and also to find financial support for publishing letters of Bakunin and Struve

    The author publishes V. Brusov’s paper «On Lomonosov». According to V. Brusov, M. Lomonosov is «the father of the Russian literature». Significantly, V. Brusov overlooked M. Lomonosov’s poetry, with a view towards his works on prosody. The publication’s author concludes that V. Brusov intended to write a research paper on M. Lomonosov’s life and creativity

    The long-wavelength view of GG Tau A: rocks in the ring world

    No full text
    We present the first detection of GG Tau A at centimetre wavelengths, made with the Arcminute Microkelvin Imager Large Array at a frequency of 16 GHz (λ = 1.8 cm). The source is detected at >6 σrms with an integrated flux density of S16GHz = 249 ± 45 µJy. We use these new centimetre-wave data, in conjunction with additional measurements compiled from the literature, to investigate the long-wavelength tail of the dust emission from this unusual protoplanetary system. We use an MCMC-based method to determine maximum likelihood parameters for a simple parametric spectral model and consider the opacity and mass of the dust contributing to the microwave emission. We derive a dust mass of Md ~ 0.1 Msun, constrain the dimensions of the emitting region and find that the opacity index at λ > 7 mm is less than unity, implying a contribution to the dust population from grains exceeding ~4 cm in size. We suggest that this indicates coagulation within the GG Tau A system has proceeded to the point where dust grains have grown to the size of small rocks with dimensions of a few centimetres. Considering the relatively young age of the GG Tau association in combination with the low derived disc mass, we suggest that this system may provide a useful test case for rapid core accretion planet formation models

    Jezik in slog v delih Alme M. Karlin

    No full text
    Alma Maksimiliana Karlin (1889–1950) was born in Celje 130 years ago. Since the mid 1920s, she was considered an important world traveler and by the end of World War II Alma Karlin became a very popular and notable German writing author. The volume provides research findings on the linguistic and stylistic aspects as well as some others specific features of Karlin’s literary heritage. The papers are classified according to theoretical, methodological and empirical background and devided into three sections. The contributions in the first part discuss the possibilities of different ap-proaches to studing literary and aesthetic characteristics in Karlin’s select-ed works. Dejan Kos (Maribor) illustrates how Alma M. Karlin’s texts are characterized by an empathetic tendency to transcend the boundaries of her own world through aesthetics and spirituality. The discussion by Sylvia Brä-sel (Erfurt) shows that Karlin does not merely convey knowledge about the world and reflects on entertaining, foreign, and exotic, but also systematically re-presents herself. Alenka Jensterle-Doležal (Prague) describes the ways in which women’s roles and identities are constructed in the novel Svetlikanje v mraku. The analysis of style and language reveals that the author critically asseses woman’s life in a patriarchal society, while advocating racist judgments and prejudices of the time. The article by Melania Larisa Fabčič (Maribor) focuses on Karlin’s autobiography and her style, which is primarily constructed through reflection of emotions, recognized by the reader even when the text does not explicitly demonstrate them. The texts in the second part focus on different approaches of Alma M. Karlin’s textual style. Vida Jesenšek (Maribor) transparently presents the complexity of the author’s style. By implying linguistic, pragmatic and cognitive aspects, the research identifies the connections and mutual correlations between general principles of text’s structure, specific stylistic »meanings« and substantive textual aspects. Inge Pohl (Schwieberdingen) presents the first comprehensive linguistic analysis of the novel Windlichter des Todes, focusing on the archi-tectonic, structure and composition of literary characters and highlightening the function of the narrative perspective and the narrative structure. One of the most outstanding feautres of Alma M. Karlin’s literary texts is conveing emotions. In her research, Hana Bergerová (Ústí nad Labem) demonstrates that Karlin’s describes emotions in different, explicit and implicit, ways. The papers in the third part examine the creative use of language in Alma M. Karlin’s selected works. The reader notices linguistic creativity when rec-ognizing those linguistic meanings or devices in a text which seem unusual, unexpected, or deviating from expected. Urška Valenčič Arh (Ljubljana) studies the use of phraseological expressions in Der blaue Mond’s and compares the original to the Slovene translation. Alja Lipavic Oštir (Maribor) resarches travel texts with a particular emphasis on geographical names. Simona Štavbar (Ma-ribor) proceeds from the assumption that Karlin’s geobiographical texts contain evaluating statements which reinforce social prejudices. It is not surprising, therefore, that there are numerous euphemisms and dysphisms which Karlin uses to »indirectly« denote things, people, and events, concealing or empha-sizing certain judgments. Karlin’s creativity is also reflected in the effective use of word-formations. Inge Pohl (Schwieberdingen) studies neologisms in the novel Windlichter des Todes and describes the word-forming patterns used by Karlin to attract readers’ attention but which also demonstrate her exceptional knowledge of German. The volume offers a scholarly insight into a number of previously unexplored topics related to language and style of Alma M. Karlin’s literary works and outlines possibilities for further researches.Pred 130 leti se je v Celju rodila Alma Maksimiliana Karlin (1889–1950), po-membna svetovna popotnica in zelo brana ter priljubljena slovenska pisateljica, pesnica in publicistka, ki je svoja dela objavljala v nemškem jeziku. Prispevki v monografiji analizirajo in prikazujejo jezikovne in slogovne značilnosti ter posebnosti literarnega ustvarjanja Alme M. Karlin. Razprave so razvrščene v tri vsebinske razdelke glede na teoretska, metodološka in empirična izhodišča. Besedila v prvem delu monografije nakazujejo različne pristope k preučevanju literarno-estetskih posebnosti. Dejan Kos (Maribor) ponazarja, kako besedila Alme M. Karlin zaznamuje empatična težnja po preseganju meja lastnega sveta s pomočjo estetike in duhovnosti. Razprava Sylvie Bräsel (Erfurt) teme-lji na pregledu izbranih besedil z vzhodnoazijsko tematiko. Prikazano je, da Karlinova s pisanjem posreduje védenje o svetu, razvedrilno prikazuje tuje, eksotično in pri tem sistematično ter ciljno gradi svojo samopodobo. Alenka Jensterle-Doležal (Praga) predstavlja roman Svetlikanje v mraku in prikaže načine, kako so v romanu oblikovane ženske vloge in identitete. Analiza pripovednega sloga, samosvoje metaforike in groteskno-nenavadnih primer kaže, da Karlinova kritično ocenjuje življenjsko okolje ženske v patriarhalni družbi, obenem pa zagovarja tedanje rasistične predsodke. Melanija Larisa Fabčič (Maribor) razpravlja o njeni literarnosti pisateljičine avtobiografije, ki je povezana z ubesedovanjem emocij. Prispevek dokazuje, da logično‑semantično sklepanje bralcev omogoča njihovo prepoznavanje tudi takrat, ko površinska podoba besedila izrecnih poimenovanj emocij ne izkazuje. Prispevki v drugem delu monografije prikazujejo različne pristope, s katerimi lahko jezikoslovno proučujemo literarna besedila. Vida Jesenšek (Maribor) pregledno predstavi kompleksnost in raznolikost besedilnega sloga. Če ga analiziramo z jezikoslovnih, pragmatičnih in spoznavnih vidikov in ga razume-vamo v relacionalnem smislu, lahko razumemo povezave in soodvisnosti med splošnimi načeli besedilnega oblikovanja, posebnimi slogovnimi »sredstvi« in vsebinskimi besedilnimi značilnostmi. Inge Pohl (Schwieberdingen) podaja prvi celoviti jezikoslovni opis dela Windlichter des Todes. Izpostavi funkcij-skost pripovedne perspektive in pripovednostrukturno realizacijo tematike. K temeljnim značilnostim večine literarnih besedil Alme M. Karlin sodijo načini ubesedovanja čustev in njihovo vzbujanje pri bralcih. Hana Bergerová (Ústí nad Labem) obravnava dve geobiografski besedili s toposom ‘Južno morje’ in dokazuje, da Karlinova dosega čustvenost na različne načine. Odvisno od funkcije besedila in želenih učinkov pri bralcih se odloča za eksplicitne in implicitne oblike ubesedovanja čustev, pri tem pa izrablja različne ravnine oz. sestavine jezikovnega sistema. Razprave v tretjem delu monografije preučujejo ustvarjalno rabo jezika pri Almi M. Karlin. Bralec opazi jezikovno ustvarjalnost, ko posamezna jezi-kovna sredstva ali načine ubesedovanja občuti in dojema kot nenavadne, nepričakovane, odstopajoče od običajnega. Urška Valenčič Arh (Ljubljana) proučuje rabo frazeoloških izrazov v delu Der blaue Mond in jo primerja s slovenskim prevodom. Zanima jo sporočanjska in umetniška ustreznost prevoda posameznih leksikalno-skladenjskih enot. Ugotavlja, da Karlinova frazeološke izraze skladno z besedilnimi funkcijami tudi smiselno prenavlja. Alja Lipavic Oštir (Maribor) raziskuje zemljepisna imena in uvodoma predstavi njihovo vlogo v besedilih. Zemljepisno lastno‑ in občoimenskost povezuje z besedilnimi lastnostmi oz. s pisateljičinimi sporočanjskimi namerami, oboje pa obravnava glede na postopke prevajanja, parafraziranja in metaforizacije, ki jih Karlinova v besedilu udejanja. Simona Štavbar (Maribor) domneva, da geobiografska besedila Alme M. Karlin vsebujejo vrednotenjske izjave in utr-jujejo družbene predsodke. Karlinova s številnimi evfemizmi in disfemizmi, s katerimi stvari, ljudi in dogodke »posredno« poimenuje, prikriva ali poudarja vrednostne sodbe. Koncepti/pojmovna polja ‘rasa’, ‘spol’, ‘prostitucija’ in ‘tabu’ so pri Karlinovi pogosto olepšanipisateljica z njihovo različno rabo posredno ubeseduje tudi lastne vrednostne sodbe in nazore. Alma M. Karlin učinkovito izrablja besedotvorne možnosti nemškega jezika. Inge Pohl (Schwieberdingen) proučuje ustvarjalno rabo priložnostnih tvorjenk (okazionalizme) v romanu Windlichter des Todes. Dokazano je, da so okazionalizmi funkcionalno po-membni ‒ na bralca učinkujejo (predvidoma) na poseben način (emocionali-zacija, dramatizacija, vzbujanje asociativnih povezav, jezikovna ekonomija), Almi M. Karlin pa omogočajo samopredstavitev, saj z njimi dokazuje, da izvrstno obvlada jezik. Monografija obravnava doslej neraziskana področja, ki so povezana z jezikov-no-slogovno podobo literarnih del Alme M. Karlin. Odpira nova pomembna raziskovalna vprašanja o jeziku in slogu Alme M. Karlin in spodbuja nadaljnji znanstveni razmislek

    Dit verslag beschrijft de stabiliteit van een aantal stortsteenkonstrukties die afwijkt van een recht doorgaand talud zonder overslag . De konstrukties zijn dammen met een lage kruin, geknikte stortsteen taluds en stortsteen taluds met een glad boventalud. Uitgangspunt daarbij zijn de resultaten van M 1983 deel I (twee stabiliteitsformules) en van M 2006, het bermonderzoek . Voor de lage dammen zijn 31 proeven uitgevoerd. Bij de analyse zijn ook de resultaten van een aantal andere (buitenlandse) onderzoeken betrokken . Voor de overgangskonstrukties zijn in totaal 18 proefseries uitgevoerd, waarbij elke proefserie bestond uit 2-6 stappen met opklimmende golfhoogte. Lage dammen kunnen worden onderverdeeld in drie typen, reef type konstrukties, traditionele konstrukties met de kruin boven swl en konstrukties met de kruin beneden swl. Voor aIle drie typen zijn ontwerpformules en/of ontwerpgrafieken afgeleid. Voor de overgangskonstrukties zijn eveneens relatief eenvoudige ontwerpgrafieken bepaald.Steenzettingen - TAW/EN

    Mental Disease and Imputability: intervalla insaniae and Regime of Custody. From D. 1.18.14 (Macer De iudiciis publicis libri XIV) to the Contemporary Debate

    No full text
    The Macer's passage preserved in D. 1.18.14 (together with Ulpian's D. 1.18.13.1 and Modestinus' D. 48.9.9.2) faces the matter of the imputability of a subject author of a crime, but unfit to plead because of mental disease. In our fragment the principle which denied the imputability in such a case, already existing in the Roman legal system, is restated in a rescript sent by Marcus Aurelius and the son Commodus to the functionary Scapula Tertullus concerning a certain Aelius Priscus, murderer of his mother. The emperors ask to investigate the possible presence of simulatio dementiae and mainly intervalla insaniae prescribing the measure of the detention, if necessary also in prison. The fact forces us to reflect about the high level of dogmatic speculation of the Severan jurists. In more criminological sense, instead, the main problem is represented by the social value given to a homicide inside the family and in particular toward a parent, a crime so atrocious to be perceived by the public opinion, now as much as in the past, “unnatural” or better even “against-natur”, on the basis of a kind of self-protection mechanism

    Wave turbulence of a rotating array of quantized vortices in the T → 0 temperature limit

    No full text
    The dynamics of quantized vortices in the zero temperature limit T0T \rightarrow 0 is currently of great interest, particularly in the case of the Fermi superfluid 3^3He-B. Here we study wave turbulence, generated by the librating motion of a rotating cylindrical container filled with 3^3He-B, in the limit of vanishing viscous forces at temperatures T0.2TcT \leq 0.2 T_{c}. The polarization of the quantized vortices with respect to the axis of rotation is measured using non-invasive NMR techniques. We observe a decrease of the polarization when the librating motion is started, and a two-stage relaxation process when the modulation of the rotation velocity is stopped. The first relaxation process is associated with the dissipation of large-scale flow stored in inertial waves and the solid body rotation of the vortex array. From the decay of these energy reservoirs we determine the rate of energy dissipation of large-scale flow. The later second process is related to the relaxation of Kelvin waves on individual vortices. This process is monitored by the recovery of the polarization. The existence of a Kelvin wave cascade at the lowest temperatures is currently a central open question. We supply some evidence for the cascade
