Abstract:

The aim of this book is to contribute to a critical assessment of the literature on the creative city and to a clarification of some of the many questions that remain unanswered. It is a collection of essays which, in the first part, addresses concepts and theories of urban development, city marketing and branding, presented as a framework in which the discourse of the creative city is embedded. In the second part, four case studies of cities considered to be emblematic of cultural industries (Manchester, Berlin, Dublin, and a comparative study of Milan and London) serve to illustrate the social production of creativity in specific urban contexts.

Abstract:

The 5th European-African Conference of Wind Engineering is hosted in Florence, Tuscany, the city and the region where, in the early 15th century, pioneers moved the first steps, laying down the foundation stones of Mechanics and Applied Sciences (including fluid mechanics). These origins are well reflected by the astonishing visionary and revolutionary studies of Leonardo Da Vinci, whose kaleidoscopic genius intended the human being to become able to fly even 500 years ago… This is why the Organising Committee has decided to pay tribute to such a Genius by choosing Leonardo's "flying sphere" as the brand of 5th EACWE.

Abstract:

Early Photography in Vietnam is a fascinating and outstanding pictorial record of photography in Vietnam during the century of French rule. In more than 500 photographs, many published here for the first time, the volume records Vietnam’s capture and occupation by the French, the wide-ranging ethnicities and cultures of Vietnam, the country’s fierce resistance to foreign rule, leading to the reassertion of its own identity and subsequent independence. This benchmark volume also includes a chronology of photography (1845–1954), an index of more than 240 photographers and studios in the same period, appendixes focusing on postcards, royal photographic portraits, Cartes de Visite and Cabinet Cards, as well as a select bibliography and list of illustrations.

Full text

Abstract:

This collection of essays offers a critical assessment of Labour in a Single Shot, a groundbreaking documentary video workshop. From 2011 to 2014, curator Antje Ehmann and film- and videomaker Harun Farocki produced an art project of truly global proportions. They travelled to fifteen cities around the world to conduct workshops inspired by cinema history’s first film, Workers Leaving the Lumière Factory, shot in 1895 by the Lumière brothers in France. While the workshop videos are in colour and the camera was not required to remain static, Ehmann and Farocki’s students were tasked with honouring the original Lumière film’s basic parameters of theme and style. The fascinating result is a collection of more than 550 short videos that have appeared in international exhibitions and on an open-access website, offering the widest possible audience the opportunity to ponder contemporary labour in multiple contexts around the world.

Abstract:

Chapter 3 examines Athenian festival culture in the fifth and fourth centuries. It is argued that the process of tragedy’s dissemination began not with the ‘export’ of plays out of Athens, but even at the very moment of their first performance in the theatre of Dionysus. Athens attracted a wide range of visitors to its festivals, who could be both performers and spectators. Here we examine the evidence for the activities of ninety non-citizen musicians, poets, and actors and the contribution they made to the Dionysia and other festivals. We shall see that Athens is best understood as a major Panhellenic centre within a broader network of other Greek cities and sanctuaries.

Abstract:

Chapter 4 concerns performances of tragedy outside Athens in the first half of the fifth century. It considers firstly the contribution made by Doric dramatists in the Peloponnese and Sicily to the development of tragedy. Secondly, it examines the Sicilian context for the performance of plays by Aeschylus (and possibly Phrynichus). Sicily was a major destination for all poets at this time (including Simonides and Pindar) largely because of the patronage of the tyrants of Syracuse and Acragas. It is no surprise that Aeschylus also made the journey west. Finally, it shows why the Aetnaeae and Persians of Aeschylus, plays often associated with Sicily, should be viewed as fundamentally Panhellenic, or at least Pansicilian, in orientation.

Full text

Abstract:

This book is a ground-breaking study of the phenomenon of migration in and to England over the medieval millennium, between c. AD 500 and c. AD 1500. It reaches across traditional scholarly divides, both disciplinary and chronological, to investigate, for the first time, the different types of data and scholarly methods that reveal evidence of migration and mobility within the medieval kingdom of England. England offers the opportunity for studying migration and migrants over the longue durée, because it has been a recognisable political unit for over a millennium and because a wealth of source material has survived from these centuries. The data vary unevenly in quality and quantity across this period, but become considerably more powerful through multi-disciplinary approaches to data collection and interpretation. Fifteen subject specialists synthesise and extend recent research in a wide range of disciplines, including archaeology, art history, genetics, historical linguistics, history, literature and onomastics. They evaluate the capacity of different genres of evidence for addressing questions around migration and its effects on the identities of groups and individuals within medieval England, as well as methodological parameters and future research potential. The book therefore marks an important contribution to medieval studies, and to modern debates on migration and the free movement of people, arguing that migration in the modern world, and its reverberations, cannot be completely understood without taking a broad historical perspective on the topic.

Full text

Abstract:

This chapter analyzes how Syriac historiography is a rare example of non-etatist, non-imperial, history writing. It was produced, copied, and preserved entirely within Christian church structures. The Syriac-using Christians, however, were divided into numerous rival denominations and communities as a consequence both of the fifth-century theological controversies and of geopolitical boundaries. And since both of these factors strongly influenced both the motivations which underpinned the production of history writing and the forms it took, historians need to have some knowledge of these rival Syriac denominations. Because of internal Christian debates about the relationship of the divinity and humanity within Christ during the fifth century, the Syriac-using churches fragmented. All accepted that Christ was perfect God and perfect man, but differed fiercely about how to articulate this.

Full text

Abstract:

Religious Architecture in Latium and Etruria, c. 900-500 BC presents the first comprehensive treatment of cult buildings in western central Italy from the Iron Age to the Archaic Period. By analysing the archaeological evidence for the form of early religious buildings and their role in ancient communities, it reconstructs a detailed history of early Latial and Etruscan religious architecture that brings together the buildings and the people who used them. The first part of the study examines the processes by which religious buildings changed from huts and shrines to monumental temples, and explores apparent differences between these processes in Latium and Etruria. The second part analyses the broader architectural, religious, and topographical contexts of the first Etrusco-Italic temples alongside possible rationales for their introduction. The result is a new and extensive account of when, where, and why monumental cult buildings became features of early central Italic society.

Full text

Abstract:

The phrase ‘standard of living’ is closely identified with a more-than-century-long debate in both the popular press and academic journals about the effects of the early stages of industrialization on the working class, especially in nineteenth-century Britain. This article explores when and why the consumption of material goods became the measure of the ‘standard of living’, and, secondly, what has led to its displacement in more recent times. These shifts provide insight into changing assumptions about the desirability of household accumulation. The article tracks the state of our knowledge about transformations in living standards from the early modern period on, and examines whether a longer and broad historical view has demoted industrialization as a causal factor. It looks at the promotion of well-being by limiting consumption, political economy and the emergence of a standard of living debate, human capital, public goods, poverty lines, and consumer sovereignty.

Full text

Abstract:

Based on cross-linguistic data from several children each learning one of eight languages and grounded in the theoretical frameworks of usage-based phonology, exemplar theory, and Dynamic Systems Theory, this book explores the patterns or phonological templates children develop once they are producing 20–50 words or more. The children are found to begin with ‘selected’ words, which match some of the vocal forms they have practised in babbling; this is followed by the production of more challenging adult word forms, adapted—differently by different children and with some shaping by the particular adult language—to fit that child’s existing word forms. Early accuracy is replaced by later recourse to an ‘inner model’ of what a word can sound like; this is a template, or fixed output pattern to which a high proportion of the children’s forms adhere for a short time, before being replaced by ‘ordinary’ (more adult-like) forms with regular substitutions and omissions. The idea of templates developed in adult theorizing about phonology and morphology; in adult language it is most productive in colloquial forms and pet names or hypocoristics, found in informal settings or ‘language at play’. These are illustrated in some detail for over 200 English rhyming compounds, 100 Estonian and 500 French short forms. The issues of emergent systematicity, the roles of articulatory and memory challenges for children, and the similarities and differences in the function of templates for adults as compared with children are central concerns.

Abstract:

The history of humanity is a history of migration rather than an early nomadic ‘prehistory’ and a subsequent ‘history’ of settled peoples. Migrations involve intercultural exchange as well as conflict; a human-agency approach emphasizes that even forced migrants leave their mark, if under severely constrained conditions. This article describes the Homo sapiens' migrations and the ‘agricultural revolution’; cities, civilizations, and seaborne migrations to 500 ce; migrations and societies in 500 bce–1500 ce; the expansion of the Chinese empire and the rise of Europe's Atlantic littoral; people on the move in colonizer, self-ruled, and colonized societies to 1800; nineteenth-century global migration systems; refugee-generation, unmixing of peoples, and forced labor migrations to the 1950s; and decolonization and new global patterns of migration since the 1950s.

Abstract:

This chapter comments on Article 54 of the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court. Article 54 sets out the powers and duties of the Prosecutor with respect to investigations. Article 54 is an effort to strike the balance, to ‘build a bridge between the adversarial common law approach to the role of the Prosecutor and the role of the investigating judge in certain civil law systems’. Paragraph 1 sets out the ‘duties’ of the Prosecutor, whereas paragraphs 2 and 3 discuss the ‘powers’. Although the ‘powers’ refer specifically to the investigative phase, the nature of the duties suggests that they apply to the work of the Prosecutor overall, whatever the stage of proceedings.

Abstract:

‘History, genre, text’ introduces this overview of classical literature, a period spanning over 1,200 years (c.750 bc to ad 500) and explains how these texts survived to this day. The conventional periodization of classical literature — archaic, classical, Hellenistic, and imperial for Greek literature; Republican and imperial for Latin — mirrors the familiar chunks of ancient history. A striking aspect of classical literature is its highly developed sense of genre. But what is genre? Classical literature is characterized by a hierarchy of genres, from ‘high’ forms such as epic, tragedy, and history to ‘low’ forms such as comedy, satire, mime, and epigram.

Abstract:

Antenatal hydronephrosis is the most common abnormality detected during antenatal ultrasound screening (1 in 100–500 pregnancies). Depending on the degree of dilatation, postnatal evaluation with ultrasound and/or renography is indicated to detect urinary tract obstruction. Obstruction can be found at various levels of the urinary tract such as the pyeloureteric junction, vesicoureteric junction (resulting in a megaureter), and lower urinary tract (most commonly posterior urethral valves). The decision to surgically correct obstruction can be challenging to make, and additional markers (both radiological as urinary) are needed but are not yet available in daily practice.

Urinary tract infection is the commonest bacterial infection and cause of septicaemia post kidney transplant, accounting for 40–50% of all infectious post-transplant complications. The risk of a urinary tract infection post transplant is very high with most studies recording at least 50%, and rates as high as 86% have been reported. Clinically overt urinary tract infections are a major cause of morbidity post transplant and are associated with worse graft outcome and increased mortality. This chapter discusses the epidemiology, aetiology, pathology, clinical presentation, investigations, consequences, treatment, and prophylaxis of post-transplant urinary tract infections.

CFTR functions as a transmembrane chloride channel in the apical membrane of most secretory epithelia and the disease thus affects lungs, pancreas, exocrine glands, gut, and liver. In CF-associated liver disease the biliary tract is most commonly involved in a spectrum from asymptomatic to biliary cirrhosis. The liver disease runs from mild and subclinical to severe cirrhosis and portal hypertension. Clinical disease is seen in 4–6% of cases, but there are biochemical abnormalities in 20–50%.

Abstract:

Born under the sign of Gemini, between May 14 and June 13, 1265, most likely towards the end of May, in a low-nobility family in Florence, he was baptized on March 26, 1266, with the name of During, later abbreviated to Dante, the name of which he became known for posterity. He died between the 13th and 14th of September 1321 after making a diplomatic trip in the city of Venice representing the city of Ravenna, Dante, possibly suffering from malaria. By spiritist analysis, Dante was a powerful medium, but he lived and wrote in a period dominated by the Church, and, according to Ranieri (2012, p. 57) defined, he was not fully understood where he considered his work to be written only by the poetic aspect and not as a real experience, experienced exponentially in its nocturnal incursions through the astral unfolding and the scenes portrayed present realities of the different spiritual worlds existing on our Planet. Therefore, in this year of 2021, in which Dante celebrates 700 years of death, the present book is a tribute to this poet who presented us with a classic of world literature through a bias previously unexplored.

Although each group had its own name, outside observers have applied the term “Mackenzie Inuit” to them collectively on the basis of shared cultural traits and their proximity to the Mackenzie River, whose resources first attracted them. Information from archaeology, historical records, and local oral histories is drawn upon to formulate an interpretive framework for the origins and development of Mackenzie Inuit over a period spanning 500 to 600 years.

Abstract:

Classic Daoism, led by Laozi (b. ca. 570 BC) and Zhaungzi (369–286 BC), postulates a dao-centric school of philosophy. The author discusses four key principles of dao (the “way” 道‎): wuwei (無為‎take non-egoistic action); (2) guan (觀‎ observation from the perspective of the being observed); (3) qiwu (齊物‎ equality); and (4) rou (柔‎ soft and flexible). To apply these principles in music education, learners would learn in their most natural ways; music, musicians, and learners would be understood from their own vantage points; all perspectives would be treated equally; and educators would be so flexible that they need not worry about what is forthcoming.

Full text

Abstract:

This chapter is concerned with how atherosclerosis risk is modulated by a complex interplay between genetic and environmental risk factors. The contribution of genetics to the variability of atherosclerosis risk is estimated as 50%. Recent genome-wide association studies have led to the identification of over 50 gene variants which modulate atherogenesis. Risk factors for atherosclerosis are also partly genetically determined and some of the variants which play a role in atherogenesis overlap with those modulating its risk factors. However, the current relevance of these findings for clinical practice is limited, mainly due to the small effect sizes of identified risk variants with insufficient discriminatory power, and a large portion of the genetic contribution to atherosclerosis is still unknown. The major promise therefore lies in understanding the pathophysiology of newly identified genes with the perspective of novel therapeutic approaches.

Abstract:

‘Microbial diversity’ considers the vast array of microorganisms—the smallest forms of life—which exist everywhere. The three primary groups of microorganisms are bacteria, archaea, and eukaryotes. Bacteria and archaea are prokaryotes with their genetic material held in a single chromosome. In eukaryotes, most of the genome is held in multiple chromosomes. Over 11,000 species of bacteria have been identified using microscopic identification of cell shape and metabolic activity, Gram-staining techniques, and genetic identification of RNA and DNA sequences. There are 500 named species of archaea, divided into two phyla: the euryarchaeota and the crenarchaeota. There are eight supergroupings of eukaryotes, all of them include single-celled organisms, and five are entirely microbial.

Abstract:

Burgen in Schleswig-Holstein sind bisher die großen Unbekannten der Landesgeschichte. Dieser Band zeigt, wo die bedeutendsten Burgen im Norden lagen und welche Rolle sie für Wirtschaft, Verkehr und Gesellschaft des Mittelalters spielten. Burgen waren Zentren von Macht und Wirtschaft. Im Mittelalter entstanden in Schleswig-Holstein zahlreiche bedeutende Burgenbauten – wenige aus Stein, die meisten aus Erde, Lehm und Holz. Viele davon sind heute daher verschwunden und vergessen. Der von Oliver Auge herausgegebene Band zeigt eine spannende Spurensuche nach den Burgen von früher und danach, was heute von ihnen übriggeblieben ist. Gab es wirklich, wie so oft behauptet, 500 Burgen in Schleswig-Holstein? Wo sind sie geblieben? Machen Sie sich auf die Suche nach dem Faszinosum Mittelalter – mitten in Schleswig-Holstein.

This chapter comments on Article 50 of the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court. Article 50 sets out the official and working languages of the Court. The ‘official languages’ of the Court are Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Russian, and Spanish. The ‘working’ languages of the Court are English and French. In practice, it seems that the Court works largely in English. The Presidency may authorize one of the other four official languages to be used as a working language when the language is understood and spoken by the majority of those involved in a case before the Court and if any of the participants in the proceedings so requests, and more generally whenever the Prosecutor and the defence so request.

Abstract:

Neutropenia is defined by an absolute neutrophil count <500 per mm3. Chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression represents the main mechanism accounting for neutropenia, although various bone marrow disorders might also result in impaired granulopoiesis. Neutropenia, especially when profound and prolonged, is a major risk factor for severe bacterial and fungal infections. Early initiation of empirical broad-spectrum antibiotic therapy represents the cornerstone of the treatment of febrile neutropenia. A number of infected neutropenic patients may exhibit organ failures, such as acute respiratory failures and/or severe sepsis requiring intensive care unit (ICU) admission. This chapter discusses the particularities in the management of neutropenic patients in the ICU, including outcome and criteria for ICU admission, management of antimicrobials with respect to the current epidemiological trends, and other measures specific to this subgroup of patients.

Full text

Abstract:

This article discusses trade across Europe and Asia up to 1750. It describes merchants, towns, and mercantile strategy in ca. 3500–143 bce; trade under the aegis of empire, ca. 560 bce–600 ce; China, Islam, and the Mongols in 589–1500; and Europe in the East, ca. 1100–1750. In Asia Minor, distribution clusters near the source-points, then fall off in proportion to distance. What is clear is that the habit of exchange extends far back into the human past. This article's discussion deals with long-distance traffic in luxury goods, and only for Eurasia and parts of Africa. While evidence of ancient trade is not lacking elsewhere, it is only for Eurasia that one can track the local connections that would eventually be knitted into a global framework. From about 3500 bce, commercial institutions slowly radiated outwards from southern Mesopotamia.

Full text

Abstract:

Using data from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System, we examine the impact of the Great Recession on subjective well-being (as measured by life satisfaction) and attempt to identify disparate effects by age. We find that those approaching retirement age (aged 55 to 64) experienced reduced life satisfaction after the recession, whereas younger working-aged adults did not. The disparate effects by age cannot be explained by income or unemployment trends, but may be explained by wealth effects. For example we find that the life satisfaction of those approaching retirement age, but not of younger working-age adults, is closely correlated with wealth indices (e.g. the Case–Shiller Housing Price Index and the S&P 500 Index).

Martin, Philip. Migration Costs of Returning Workers. Oxford University Press, 2017. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780198808022.003.0005.

Full text

Abstract:

This chapter analyzes data on what workers—interviewed as they returned from jobs in Gulf Cooperation Council countries—paid several years earlier at home to get their jobs. The most important finding is the big difference in cost by corridor. The gap between the highest and lowest cost corridor was 9 to 1, reflecting the average $4,400 paid by Pakistanis returning from Saudia Arabia versus the $500 paid by Filipinos returning from Qatar. Earnings gaps were much smaller, ranging from a low of $350 a month for Ethiopians returning from Saudi Arabia to $600 for Indians returning from Qatar. The fact that costs vary much more than earnings suggests that differing conditions in migrant-sending countries might explain why some workers pay much more than others.
