Gazera heliconioides subsp. micha H. Druce 1896
No full textGazera heliconioides micha (H. Druce, 1896) (Fig. 13) Castnia micha (H. Druce, 1896) Taxonomic history. Described in the genus Castnia by Druce (1896) but later included in the genus Cabirus by Houlbert (1918). Talbot (1919) mentions that micha “can only be considered as a race and not as a distinct species”. Distribution. This subspecies is known from Bolivia, Paraguay and South East Brazil (Miller 1986; Lamas 1995; Rothschild 1919). Jörgensen (1930) states that it is common in all the Eastern region of Paraguay. It is, apparently, together with Castnia invaria penelope, the commonest castniid species in Paraguay. Jörgensen (1930) mentions that it flies in forested areas, near bromeliads (Bromelia sp. and Ananas sp.). It is frequently found perching close to the ground at the base of leaves or grasses and the way the moth rests and its wing and body coloration (Fig. 20 b) allows it to “disappear” in the surroundings. The first author observed individuals flying in urban places of Asunción, the capital city of Paraguay. He also observed them flying in Sapucay, Paraguarí Department and in Cerro Corá, Amambay Department. Ulf Drechsel (pers. comm.) collected and observed specimens in Sapucay, Paraguarí Department, and in Areguá, Central Department; while Contreras (2009) collected them in Ñeembucú Department. Biology and behavior. Like all taxa in the genus, they have a close resemblance to members of Lycorea Doubleday (Nymphalidae: Danainae), Thyridia Hübner and Methona Doubleday (Nymphalidae: Danainae, Ithomiini), and to Notophyson heliconides (Swainson) (Erebidae: Arctiinae, Pericopini) (Miller 1986; Lamas 1973). Two males were observed by the first author in Paraguarí and Amambay Departments, while flying low and slowly, along paths surrounded with Bromelia balansae Mez, which allowed for easy collection. They also perched close to the ground (Fig. 21). These observations clearly contrast with those made by Contreras (2009) in more disturbed habitats, where specimens were found flying fast, strongly and very high (7–8 m above ground).The host plant is unknown, but we suspect that the larvae feed on Bromelia spp. and/or Ananas spp. Contreras (2009) mentions that Orchidaceae could also be hosts of this species.

Micha Ullman: specific and general
No full textTento text si klade za cíl předvést důležitou edukační interpretační praxi,která souvisí s analýzou edukovaného díla, totiž s budováním zdůvodněnéhokontextu pro vybranou strategii. V první části textu Micha Ullman: sochyna rozhraní nebe – země prozkoumáme dílo autora, který začal tvořit v se-dmdesátých letech a jeho tvorba je kontinuálně vystavována.V druhé části Strategie a její variace: nalezení shodného při vědomí odliš-ností teoreticky zakotvíme odlišnost mezi konkrétní praxí autora a strategiíjako objevenou obecninou. Objevovat strategie, umět je chápat ve spojitostis určitou dobou, znamená, že při významných shodách zároveň zazname-náváme odlišnosti a vsazujeme jev do adekvátního kontextu. Je to jednakvelmi účinná edukativní možnost, jak chápat dějiny oboru v souvislostecha trsech a neutápět se v jednotlivých případech autorských řešení, ale takémožnost, jak pro jednotlivé autory získat výkladový rámec porovnáváníma vyhledáváním shod při podstatných odlišnostech s jinými.This text aims to demonstrate an important educational interpretation prac-tice that is related to the analysis of the educated work, namely to buildinga justified context for the chosen strategy. In the first part of the text MichaUllman: sculptures at the interface of heaven and earth, we will explore thework of the author, who started creating in the seventies and whose workis continuously exhibited.In the second part, Strategy and its variations: finding the same whilebeing aware of differences, we theoretically anchor the difference betweenthe specific practice of the author and strategy as a discovered generality.Discovering strategies, being able to understand them in connection witha certain time, means that in case of significant similarities, we simultaneou-sly note differences and place the phenomenon in an adequate context. It is,on the one hand, a very effective educational opportunity to understand thehistory of the field in contexts and clusters and not to get bogged down inindividual cases of authorial solutions, but also an opportunity to obtain aninterpretive framework for individual authors by comparing and searchingfor similarities in substantial differences with others
On the future of pedagogical utopia
Get PDFIm Ausgang von Platons Theorie der Pädagogik wird eine handlungstheoretische Konzeption des Neuen nach Durkheim, Weber und Mead skizziert. Das Neue, um das es jeder Pädagogik gehen muß, kann keine ausgemachte Utopie, sondern nur das unverwechselbare Neue eines jeden neugeborenen Individuums sein. In Hannah Arendts Theorie der Natalität liegt dazu ein noch nicht entfalteter Theoriekern vor. (DIPF/Orig.)Proceeding from Plato\u27s theory of pedagogics, the author sketches an action-theoretical conception of the new following Emile Durkheim, Max Weber, and George Herbert Mead. The new, with which every pedagogical theory must be concerned, cannot be a straightforward utopia but, rather, the unmistakable new of every newborn individual. In this respect, Hannah Arendt\u27s theory of natality contains a pertinent theoretical core, which has as yet not been fully developed. (DIPF/Orig.

Performing a conference: SCENARIO Forum 2014
Get PDF"Finally a place where I don't have to explain the basics of what I do. Now we can get to the interesting questions!" was one common tenor in the many fascinating conversations I found myself having at the SCENARIO Forum conference. In various different keys, this sentiment wove through the papers, presentations, and workshops by applied theatre practitioners, performance artists, foreign language teachers/researchers representing a spectrum of languages and age groups from preschool to university, drama teachers, researchers from areas like second language studies, neuroscience, and cultural and literary theory, education specialists, and various hybrids of those categories. The SCENARIO Forum International Conference on Performative Teaching, Learning, and Research was held May 29-June 1, 2014, on the campus of University College Cork (UCC), Ireland. It was, in a way, the live manifestation of the work of Manfred Schewe (UCC) and Susanne Even (Indiana University Bloomington, IN, USA), who co-founded the online journal SCENARIO1 in 2007 and have co-edited it ever since. The focus of the journal is the use of drama and theatre in additional language teaching and it has cultivated a diversity of perspectives and genres since its inception, not least by being bilingual (German/English). It is the only ..
Grounded, Witness of War
No full textabstract: For my Barrett Honors creative project, I performed George Brant's emotionally gripping and timely one-woman play entitled "Grounded" which tells the story of a fighter pilot who was recommissioned to fly drones after becoming pregnant. The effects of the demanding routine of a drone pilot are masterfully captured as the pilot endures a decline in psychological state caused by the daily circumstances of a pilot fighting in drone warfare. In addition to the performance, I kept a written journal on which I have reflected and summarized in my thesis. The creative project has indeed been one of my most challenging, yet rewarding experiences in performance thus far. With the incredible guidance of Micha Espinosa and Jennifer Linde, I was able to achieve a feat of memorizing and performing an hour and ten minute play that really tested my capacity as an actor. It expanded my skill set as an actor and allowed me to play a female role that escapes the "ingenue role" that I have been cast as constantly in my performance career. I have divided my reflection journal into four separate sections: Statement of Purpose, Background Information on Drone Warfare, Character Development and Methodological Process, Performance Reflection and "Talk-Back." These sections guide the reader through my development from the beginning of the process all the way to final performance
Masse et fascisme
Get PDFL’époque du fascisme s’est annoncée comme une époque des masses, plus précisément des masses fascinées ou séduites par des chefs (Führer). Lorsque l’ouvrage majeur du sociologue Max Weber fut publié en 1921 à titre posthume, l’un de ses chapitres fut déjà consacré à la « domination charismatique » pour nommer, à travers le concept de « charisme », les qualités d’une personnalité « qui font qu’elle est perçue comme un chef, qui le font apparaître comme un émissaire de Dieu ou comme une personn..

Distributions of particulate Heme b in the Atlantic and Southern Oceans-Implications for electron transport in phytoplankton
Get PDFConcentrations of heme b, the iron-containing component of b-type hemoproteins, ranged from 500). High chl a:heme b ratios resulted from relative decreases in heme b, suggesting proteins such as cytochrome b6f, the core complex of photosystem II, and eukaryotic nitrate reductase were depleted relative to proteins containing chlorophyll such as the eukaryotic light-harvesting antenna. Relative variations in heme b, particulate organic carbon, and chl a can thus be indicative of a physiological response of the phytoplankton community to the prevailing growth conditions, within the context of large-scale changes in phytoplankton community composition
