Abstract:
Abstract The attribution of names is a significant process that often highlights concerns over identity, ideology and ownership. Within the fields of minority languages and Celtic Studies, such concerns are especially pertinent given that the identities in question are frequently perceived as under threat from dominant cultures. The effect of concerns caused by this can be examined with reference to revived Cornish, which became divided into three major varieties in the later twentieth century; by examining the names of these varieties, we can draw conclusions about how they are perceived, or we are invited to perceive them. The motivations of those involved in the Cornish language revival are equally reflected in the names of the organisations and bodies they have formed, which equally contribute to the legitimation of revived Cornish. This paper examines both these categories of name, as well as the phenomenon of Kernowisation, a term coined by Harasta (2013) to refer to the adoption of Cornish personal names, and here extended to the use of Cornish names in otherwise English-language contexts. Examining the names that have been implemented during the Cornish language revival, and the ways in which they are used or indeed refused by those involved, gives us an insight into the various ideologies that steer the revival process. Within the context of the precarious nature of Cornish and Celtic identity, we can identify the concerns of those involved in the Cornish revival movement and highlight the role of naming as an activity of legitimation, showing how the diversity of names that occur reflects an equally diverse range of motivations and influences.

Abstract:
Present-day historians of English are widely agreed that, throughout its recorded history, the English language has absorbed linguistic influences from other languages, most notably Latin, Scandinavian, and French. What may give rise to differing views is the nature and extent of these influences, not the existence of them. Against the backdrop of this unanimity, it seems remarkable that there is one group of languages for which no such consensus exists, despite a close coexistence between English and these languages in the British Isles spanning more than one and a half millennia. This group is, of course, the Insular Celtic languages, comprising the Brittonic subgroup of Welsh and Cornish and the Goidelic one comprising Irish, Manx, and Scottish Gaelic. The standard wisdom, repeated in textbooks on the history of English such as Baugh and Cable (1993), Pyles & Algeo (1993), and Strang (1970), holds that contact influences from Celtic have always been minimal and are mainly limited to Celtic-origin place names and river names and a mere handful of other words. Thus, Baugh & Cable (1993: 85) state that ‘outside of place-names the influence of Celtic upon the English language is almost negligible’; in a similar vein, Strang (1970) writes that ‘the extensive influence of Celtic can only be traced in place-names’ (1970: 391).

Abstract:
La tradición ha hecho de la llamada Cornisa oeste de Madrid su imagen más definitoria y distintiva. El Palacio Real y el colindante convento de San Francisco el Grande son sus elementos patrimoniales más significativos. Previa a su desamortización y posterior demolición, el convento ocupaba una vasta extensión de terreno, formada por huertas, patios y claustros ajardinados, que se distribuían de manera orgánica en terrazas descendentes hacia el río Manzanares. En la actualidad un gran vacío rodea su basílica, el único vestigio conventual. Desde el siglo XIX varias controvertidas propuestas han tratado de caracterizar y revitalizar ese espacio indefinido, regenerar su degradado entorno y dar así continuidad paisajística a la Cornisa. El presente estudio pretende valorar la evolución del entorno del convento, intentando explicar el porqué de esa especie de no-lugar, mediante la comparación y revisión de la cartografía histórica, las representaciones existentes y los diferentes proyectos de intervención planteados en la zona.The tradition has made the so-named west Cornice of Madrid the most defining and distinctive image of the city. The Royal Palace and the nearby Convent of San Francisco el Grande are its most significant heritage elements. Before its confiscation and subsequent partial demolition, the convent occupied a vast extension of land, formed by orchards, patios and gardened cloisters, organically distributed on terraces descending towards the River Manzanares. Nowadays, a large empty space encircles the Basilica, which is the only remaining convent vestige. From the 19th Century onwards, several controversial proposals aimed to characterize and revitalize this undefined space, regenerate its deteriorated surroundings and thus provide landscaping continuity to the fragmented Cornice. The present study attempts to assess the evolution of the convent environment and explain the reason of this “no-place” by comparing and reviewing historical cartography, existing representations and the different intervention projects proposed for the area.

Abstract:
Five adjacent eco-stratigraphic units have been considered (listed here, from the bottom to the top): eco-zones Cordaites clercii ... Abiella subovata (7 dominants of the plain sedtmentation level), Quadrocladus pachyphyllus ... Bipemphigus gennisi (29 dominants of the mountain, plain, lowland sedimentation levels), Quadrocladus pachyphyllus ... Echinolimnadia mattoxi (15 dominants of the plain sedimentation level), Elatocladus linearis ... Cornia vosini (13 dominants of the mountain, plain, lowland sedimentation levels), eco-series Ferganiella ... Cornia vosini (11 dominants of the plain and lowland sedimentation levels). The lower eco-zone belongs to Vishkilian (Severodvinian) stage (Upper Permian), the upper one - to the Triassic. The age of the deposits included in the other eco-zones, has been discussed. A complete set includes dominants of the arborescent layer, slope herbaceous cover, lowland herbaceous cover, standing basins, semi-flowing water basins, flowing water basins, coastal basins of mountain, plain, and lowland levels. In the names of the eco-zones the dominant of the arborescent layer of mountain (or plain) level is written to the left, flowing water (or coastal) basin of the lowland level is to the right (through the dot). Eco-zones clearly differ from each other in the composition of the dominants. The clearest boundary is the boundary of the two upper eco-zones. The boundary of the two lower eco-zones is less clear. The least clear boundaries are the boundaries of the eco-zones Quadrocladus pachyphyllus ... Bipemphigus gennisi, Quadrocladus pachyphyllus ... Echinolimnadia mattoxi, Elatocladus linearis . Cornia vosini. It may be prompted to include these three eco-zones in the Taimyrian region-stage, returning its originally suggested volume. It corresponds to the zones from the Clarkina bachmanni to the Stepanocites mostleri.

Abstract:
Idaho's population of Pacific dogwood (Cornus nuttallii Audubon) has declined. Propagation of disease-resistant clones would be useful to horticulturists and conservation biologists. In vitro-derived microshoots, incubated for 1 month on woody plant medium supplemented with 6.04 mm calcium gluconate and 4.44 μm benzyladenine, produced an average of 3.1 axillary microshoots per explant. Up to 62% of the elongated microshoots had rooted ex vitro 5 weeks following a 4.5%IBA talc dip. Plantlets resumed shoot growth within 2 months of acclimatization, and 70% survived after 1 year. This protocol is more rapid and efficient than propagation by layering or rooting the difficult-to-root stem cuttings of this species. Chemical names used: 2,3,4,5,6-pentahydroxy-caproic acid (calcium gluconate), benzyladenine (BA), 3-indolebutyric acid (IBA).

Abstract:
Twenty-five dogwood accessions (one Cornus kousa, three C. kousa × C. florida hybrids, and 21 C. florida) were characterized using amplified fragment length polymorphism. Among the C. florida accessions, four were named cultivars and 17 were selections from Tennessee State University's dogwood breeding program. Amplified fragment length polymorphism band profiles obtained from 13 EcoRI/MseI (+3/+3) primer pairs showed the presence of high genetic diversity between species and within the C. florida accessions. Each accession was distinctly different from each other, and the resistant clones clustered into distinct groups.

Abstract:
Handgun treatments of abamectin and oil applied between mid-June and late August caused distinct epidermal rings where drops of spray liquid dried on the surface of pear fruit (Pyrus communis L.). The severity of epidermal injury was related to the concentration of oil in the abamectin spray mixture (abamectin applied without oil caused no fruit damage). Of six pear cultivars tested, `Anjou' was most susceptible to injury, followed by `Cornice' and `Bartlett'. `Sensation Red Bartlett', `Bosc', and `Seckel' showed little or no phytotoxicity symptoms from abamectin and oil treatments with oil concentrations from 0.125% to 2.0% (v/v). On sensitive cultivars, the concentration of oil should not exceed 0.25% (v/v) when combined with abamectin to reduce the risk of epidermal injury. Oil at 0.25% provides for adequate leaf penetration of abamectin and results in commercially acceptable spider mite (Tetranychus urticae Koch) control. Chemical names used: avermectin B1 (abamectin).

Abstract:
And Shall These Mute Stones Speak? asked Professor Charles Thomas in his seminal book of the same name (University of Wales Press, 1994), arguing that in the early medieval period, with its paucity of documentary records, the inscribed standing stones of Cornwall were the best evidence for the existence of early Cornish people. The inference was that, in the modern era, with its multiplicity of sources and data, it was hardly necessary to resort to such devices. However, the ‘mute stones’ of the nineteenth and early twentieth-century Cornish diaspora – the grave stones of Cornish emigrants in cemeteries as disparate as Pachuca in Mexico and Moonta in South Australia – are vivid insights into the Cornish diasporic experience. Their location in often remote areas are testament to the extent of Cornish diasporic dispersal, while the inscriptions on individual gravestones are themselves important sources of social and cultural history. Moreover, these cemeteries and gravestones have served collectively and individually as memorials to the diasporic Cornish, often organised into distinctive ‘Cornish’ sections in graveyards, and are today explicit sites of remembrance – as in the ‘Dressing the Graves’ ceremony performed at Moonta, Wallaroo and Kadina during the biennial ‘Kernewek Lowender’ Cornish festival on South Australia’s northern Yorke Peninsula.

Abstract:
At the end of the fifteenth century the Ottoman Empire won the land at the middle of the eastern side of the Adriatic, between the town of Omiš and the Neretva River. Thus exposing the northern settlements of the island of Brač, which were under the Venetian Administration at the time, to immediate danger from the Turkish invasion. The settlement of Pučišća was particularly vulnerable. Therefore, the settlement was intensively fortified, and a series of thirteen individual small coastal towers was built, after which the entire settlement was named Castello Pucischia in 1600. One of these towers –the Aquila tower– had a key role in defending Pučišća during the Ottoman-Venetian War, also known as the War of Cyprus (1570-1573). The Aquila tower was built at the beginning of the sixteenth century and today it is a well-preserved detached building situated on the Pučišća coast. Despite all the damage and transformations endured in the past, all the tower elements have been sufficiently preserved to reconstruct its original appearance, including the residential character of the overall interior: a stone wardrobe and a built-in stone basin (Cro. pilo), a fireplace, stairs, as well as those of a defensive character: mechanisms for lifting the drawbridge, loopholes, cannon openings, channels for extracting gunpowder smoke. The wooden beams’ supports in the walls above the first floor have also been preserved, as well as the barrel vault over the ground floor and the groin vault over the second floor which are still intact even today. On the external of the tower, the original corbels of machicolations as well as the semi-circular cornice above the escarp are partially preserved. By analysing the remains of the tower and by studying historical and bibliographic sources, a reconstruction of the original appearance of the Aquila tower has been made, both for the external and internal part, including transformations that took place over the time, since its construction to the present day. This has contributed to the knowledge of the typology of Renaissance coastal fortifications as well as to providing basis for potential renovation and reconstruction of the Aquila tower.
