Frost and Wegner Family Collection 1871-2003 Bulk dates: 1903-1969
No full textThe central figures of this collection are Ismar Frost and his wife Rose Frost, née Wegner; many of the documents were also created or owned by Rose’s parents and siblings. The collection consists of private correspondence, professional and official correspondence, a large amount of restitution documents, personal documents and family photographs. It also holds fiction and non-fiction writings by Ismar Frost’s and others.The bulk of the private correspondence was created in the years 1903-1964. There is a large amount of official correspondence and restitution documents. Personal documents of Ismar, Rose, Rose’s parents and other family members include celebratory materials and documents of students’ fraternities. Photographs depict the Frost and Wegner family during their celebrations and vacations from the late 1800s to the 1970s.The following individuals are mentioned in this collection:Aron, Frederick S., 1888-1962; Feblowicz, Gertrud, 1885-1962; Frost, Ismar, 1889-1972; Frost (née Wegner), Rose, 1895-?; Gromotka, Elisabeth; Klein, Ernest L. Wegner, Arnold, 1893-1949; Wegner, Baruch, 1857-1928; Wegner, Bryan, 1939-; Wegner (née Leon), Rose, 1909-?; Wegner, Sally (Steven), 1901-1968.Videotape removed to the A/V CollectionIsmar Frost’s parents were the merchant Josef Frost (1858 –1893) and Marie Frost (née Adler, 1854 –1928). Ismar was born on December 9, 1889 in Oppeln (today Opole, Poland). He studied law at the University in Breslau (Wrocław). After serving in the army during World War I, he finished his training as a lawyer and moved to Berlin where he opened his own practice.Ismar’s brother Georg (1891-1964) was a physician. He and his wife Alice (née Jacobsohn) emigrated to Montevideo, Uruguay.Rose Frost née Wegner was born on April 26, 1895 in Ostrowo (Province of Posen). She moved to Berlin during World War I where she later met Ismar. Rose and Ismar Frost were married on March 16, 1924. They had no children.Rose's parents were Baruch Wegner (1857 - 1928) and Amalie Wegner (née Ledermann, 1863 – 1916). They were married in 1883. Baruch sold agricultural and other machinery; his brother Jacob was married to Amalie’s sister Auguste. One of Amalie’s brothers, Saul Ledermann moved to the United States around 1900.Rose had two brothers and one sister: Arnold (1883-1949); Gertrud (1885-1962); and Sally (who later changed his name to Steven, b.1901). Arnold served in World War I and was married to Käthe Jonas; they had two sons, Hans and Kurt. Gertrud was married to the attorney Max Feblowicz; they had one son, Ernst. Sally was a dentist and was married to Rose Leon; they had one son, Bryan (born1939) and one daughter, Marian (born 1945.) All the siblings and their spouses managed to flee the Nazis and immigrated to the United States.Photographs removed to Photograph Collectiondigitize
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
Are there new models of computation? Reply to Wegner and Eberbach
No full textWegner and Eberbach[Weg04b] have argued that there are fundamental limitations
to Turing Machines as a foundation of computability and that these can be overcome
by so-called superTuring models such as interaction machines, the [pi]calculus and the
$-calculus. In this paper we contest Weger and Eberbach claims
Biosynthesis of cladospirone bisepoxide, a member of the spirobisnaphthalene family
No full textThe biosynthesis of cladospirone bisepoxide (1) was investigated by feeding C-13-labeled acetate to growing cultures of the fungus Sphaeropsidales sp. (strain F-24'707). C-13 NMR spectral analysis demonstrated the polyketide origin of both naphthalene units. The origin of two epoxide oxygens was confirmed as from air by cultivation of the strain in an O-18(2)-enriched atmosphere. The [O-18]incorporation pattern into palmarumycin C-12 (11), the putative precursor of 1 led to the hypothesis that the carbonyl oxygen of 1 is derived from water by exchange of an oxygen atom. inhibition of the biosynthesis of 1 with tricyclazole, an inhibitor of the 1,8-dihydroxynaphthalene (DHN) melanin biosynthesis, confirmed the connection of both biosynthetic pathways
