Abstract:
Abstract The themes of possessions and socioeconomic injustice have caught the attention of scholars of the Epistle of James in recent years. Nevertheless, most biblical scholars still focus primarily on the epistle’s historical aspects, a notable exception being Latin American scholars. Yet, even though many of these have interpreted James from the perspective of their context of socioeconomic exploitation, their readings do not report how people themselves understand and use biblical texts.1 This article explores the themes of wealth, poverty, and marginality in James using empirical hermeneutics. For this purpose, a group of Latino/a pentecostal believers in the southern United States read James 1:1–11 and 5:1–8 in a small Bible study group from the perspective of their religious experience, social marginalization, and economic exploitation. This article includes a report of the group’s reading of the above-mentioned passages, along with theological and practical reflections aimed at churches and practitioners.

Abstract:
How did the Romans do philology? Think in terms of the Latin language, and Varro'sDe lingua Latina, Caesar'sDe analogia, or Quintilian's chapters on grammar might come to mind. Think of commentary on texts, and names like Servius, Asconius, and Porphyrio won't be far away. But few of us, it's probably fair to say, could claim a deep acquaintance with all of those, and still fewer have acquired much sense of the broader picture – and itisbroad – of ancient scholarship in and on Latin. Cue James Zetzel'sCritics, Compilers, and Commentators, a massive and remarkable study of Roman philology from antiquity into the early Middle Ages.

Abstract:
Abstract Perhaps more than any other US composer, Aaron Copland is associated with Pan Americanism, a contradictory and often unbalanced set of practices promoting North-South economic and affective ties since the nineteenth century. Copland visited Latin America on behalf of the US government four times over the course of his career. He also befriended and taught Latin American composers, wrote about Latin American music, and composed several Latin-American—themed works, including the well-known El salón México. Focusing on one such encounter—Copland's three visits to Argentina (1941, 1947, 1963)—this article examines in detail Latin American opinion on Copland's cultural diplomacy, thus challenging the prevalent one-sided and largely US perspective. My analysis of these Spanish-language sources yields new biographical data on Copland while questioning recent assessments of his Latin American experience. I also illuminate the composer's conflicted approach to modernism, intimately connected to his desire to communicate with a broad public and to assert national identity. The crisis of modernism not only played itself out in some surprising ways in Argentina but also informed Copland's profoundly antimodernist vision of Latin American music, one rooted in essentialism and folkloric nationalism and which ultimately prevailed in the United States throughout the late twentieth century.

Abstract:
Na obra de James, há uma reação explícita contra a falsidade e a vaidade como o tom moral dominante. O modo como James julga Renan em particular, e o espírito latino em geral, está relacionado a uma identificação inicial com o espírito germânico através de um contexto protestante. Dentro dessa estrutura, nós veremos que por meio da figura de Carlyle, James opõe-se à moral objetiva da obra para com a sensibilidade gnóstica interior de Renan. Visto que há uma conexão óbvia entre Carlyle e o Calvinismo, o componente da ética protestante na proposta de James torna-se manifesta. Consequentemente, o propósito deste artigo é mostrar que o humor extenuante, como uma característica de coragem e virilidade, possui um tom protestante.

Lattin, James R. "Ultrasound-Induced Phase Change of Emulsion Droplets for Targeted Gene and Drug Delivery." BYU ScholarsArchive, 2012. https://scholarsarchive.byu.edu/etd/3377.

Full text
Abstract:
This dissertation explores the potential of using perfluorocarbon emulsion droplets to add an ultrasound-sensitive element to drug delivery systems. These emulsion droplets may be induced to vaporize with ultrasound; during the rarefactional phase of an ultrasound wave, the pressure around the droplets may fall below the vapor pressure of the liquid forming the emulsion, providing a thermodynamic potential for vaporization. This ultrasound-induced phase change of the emulsion droplet could release therapeutics attached to the droplet surface or aid in drug delivery due to mechanical effects associated with vaporization and expansion, similar to the ability of cavitating bubbles to aid in drug delivery. In contrast to bubbles, stable emulsions can be formed at nano-scale sizes, allowing them to extravasate into tissues and potentially be endocytosed into cells. Perfluorohexane and perfluoropentane were selected to form the emulsions due to their relatively high vapor pressure, low water solubility, and biocompatibility. Acoustic droplet vaporization was explored for its potential to increase ultrasound-induced drug release from liposomes. Liposomes have proven to be versatile and effective drug carriers, but are not inherently responsive to ultrasound. eLiposomes, defined as a liposome with encapsulated emulsion droplets, were developed due to the potential of the expanding vapor phase to disrupt bilayer membranes. The resulting vesicle retains the advantages of liposomes for drug delivery, while adding an ultrasound-sensitive element. eLiposomes were loaded with calcein, a fluorescent molecule, as a model drug in order to quantify ultrasound-mediated drug release compared to release from conventional liposomes. Upon exposure to ultrasound, eLiposomes typically released 3 to 5 times as much of the encapsulated load compared to conventional liposomes, with some eLiposome samples approaching 100% release. Emulsion droplets were also added to the outside of conventional liposomes, but resulted in little to no increase compared to control samples without emulsions. Lastly, in vitro experiments were performed with HeLa cells to explore the ability of emulsion droplets and eLiposomes to deliver calcein inside of cells. Calcein delivery to the cytosol was accomplished, and the emulsion-containing samples demonstrated the ability to aid in endosomal escape.

Spanish
Ph.D.
This dissertation examines Irish characters, themes and literary affinities in modern and contemporary Spanish American literature (1944-2011), focusing on novels and short stories by eight authors: El otro Joyce by Roberto Ferro, “Dublín al sur” by Isidoro Blaisten, El sueño del celta by Mario Vargas Llosa, selections from Ficciones by Jorge Luis Borges, Entre gringos y criollos and Quema su memoria by Eduardo Cormick, selected stories by Viviana O’Connell, La importancia de llamarse Daniel Santos by Luis Rafael Sánchez, and The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao by Junot Díaz. As the above list of authors suggests, Irish themes, characters, and intertextualities are present throughout the region’s Spanish-language literature, from some of its most celebrated writers like Borges and Vargas Llosa to contemporary authors such as O’Connell and Cormick. The prologue introduces the historical context of the Irish in Latin America as well as a theoretical framework to support the analyses in subsequent chapters. Each chapter is then dedicated to a different facet of the Irish-Latin American literary connection. Chapter 1 explores the translation of James Joyce into Spanish and the way in which contemporary Argentine writers dialogue with Joyce, problematizing the act of translation. Chapter 2 focuses on the ambiguous nature of Irish characters in Borges’s Ficciones and Vargas Llosa’s historical fiction El sueño del celta. Chapter 3 is dedicated to Latin American writers of direct Irish descendance and their expression of Irishness in the Americas. Finally, Chapter 4 analyzes echoes of Oscar Wilde in Caribbean Latino literature. The central question is how and why these Irish connections manifest themselves in contemporary Spanish American narrative. Ultimately, this dissertation argues that Irish characters and themes present a broader, more hybrid vision of Latin American identity, recognizing the multiplicity of languages, narratives, and selves.

Abstract:
Liminairement l'analyse de trois fictions fantastiques matricielles ("rip van winkle" ; "la legende du val dormant" de washington irving, 1819, et "peter rugg de disparu" de william austin, 1824) permet de reflechir sur le fantastique des origines et les origines du fantastique (f. ) aux ameriques ; sur la rencontre de l'histoire et de la surnature. Les nouvelles de l'etasunien henry james (1843-1916) et de l'argentin julio cortazar (1914-1984); montrent que le f. Permet l'apparition de l'innommable dans le texte et thematise son impossibilite a dire l'indicible. Ces recits mettent en scene une rencontre avec de l'etre la hors langage : une "chose" arrive, visiblement sans cause, et echappe au texte par exces de singularite, de reel. Le recit f. , paradoxalement fonde sur l'impossibilite de sa propre effectuation, pousse l'ecriture realiste dans ses derniers retranchements. Il n'y a pas de mystere dans le recit f. , il y a un mystere du recit f. : l'absence excedante du reel, des sensations irreductibles au langage. Quand ce vide est senti comme du plein, c'est "l'abysse", la "plongee dans le chaos" (james), le "sentiment d'eponge" (cortazar) : une "sensation oceanique" (r. Rolland, s. Freud). Il n'y a pas de theorie globale -monothetique- du f. Mais une theorie chaotique du singulier, une theorie idiographique. Chez james le tigre de la jungle, la chose remontee de l'abysse, le fantome, releveraient d'un mystere : un changement rituel et dramatique de l'etat d'esprit du personnage resultant d'une experience indicible de "la vieille terreur sacree". Ces figures deplacees alterent aussi le conformisme apparent de l'oeuvre. Le "secret" jamesien n'est pas reductible a une message esoterique : l'image dans le tapis oriental, le tigre du bengale, ne sont pas les synecdoques d'une inde voilee, mais d'une deformation, d'un violement du texte presse, taraude (turn of the screw) par ces figures indiennes. Faute de "coin plaisant", ces figures anamorphotiques du tigre et du tapis oriental ne peuvent etre redressees qu'en se situant dans l'abysse. L'ecriture f. De james
As a preliminary, the analysis of three founding works of fiction in the fantastic genre ("rip van winkle ;" "the legend of sleepy hollow," by washington ir ving, 1819, and "peter rugg : the missing man" by william austin, 1824) allows us to ponder on the fantastic aspect of the origin of the universe and the origins of the fantastic genre in the americas, and the concurrence of history and the supernatural. The short stories of the american-henry james (1843-1916)-and the argentinian-cortazar (1914-1984)-illustrate that the fantastic genre allows the appearance of the unnameable in the text, and this process becomes the central, hidden plot of the text. Thes stories evoke a confrontation with the "being here" which is beyond words : the "thing" happens-obviously withou any reason-and this the text cannot capture, because of its uniqueness, because it is so real. The fantastic story paradoxically founded on the impossibility of its own achievement pushes realistic writing into its last strongholds there is no mystery within the fantastic story, there is the mystery of the fantastic story : the gross absence of the r and sensations that cannot be expressed in words. When this emptiness is felt as fulfilment, it is "the abyss," the "plunge into chaos" or the "spongy feeling" (cortazar), an "oceanic feeling" (r. Rolland, s. Freud). There is n absolute unifying-monothetic-theory of the fantastic genre, but a chaotic theory of the uniqueness, an idiographic theory. With james, the jungle tiger, "thing" that has been retrieved from the abyss, the ghost, would be part o some mystery : a ritual and dramatic change of the state of mind of the character resulting from an unformulable

Abstract:
Traditionally, Arthur Johnston has been judged proxime accessit to George Buchanan in the world of Scottish neo-Latin poetry, and particularly in the versification of the Book of Psalms. The thesis offers a counterpoint to that theme. More of his poetry came under scrutiny at the close of the nineteenth century, when an edition of his Parerga and Epigrammata of 1632, turned scholarly attention to his secular poems. This study examines the poems written between 1599 and 1622 during Johnston’s peregrenatio academica in Europe – poems which depict him at the moment of his emergence onto the public stage, and which offer insights into his life, and the worlds he occupied, during those years. Part one of the thesis will examine his early years and his move into the academic world in Aberdeen and at Heidelberg University. Part two will consider the years he passed as a teacher of philosophy at the Huguenot Academy in Sedan, the independent principality on the northern border of France. It will look, too, at the evidence of his year spent in Padua, where he studied to become a physician. Part three will focus on the years 1619-22 when his longest secular poems were composed. He wrote and published with an eye to achieving a post in the medical circle around James VI and I. The thesis concludes by considering the retreat he made from Europe and London to his home in Aberdeen, and looks briefly at one of the small poems he wrote in 1623-24. Throughout, themes emerge of Johnston’s irenic preferences, and his response to the disturbance to intellectual life brought about by Calvinist division, and by the crisis heralded by the Bohemian Revolt.

Abstract:
Between 1648 CE and 1666 CE, news, rumours, and theories about the messiah and the Lost Tribes of Israel were disseminated amongst diverse populations of Jews, Christians, and Muslims. Employing a world history methodology, this thesis follows three sets of such narratives that were spread through the American colonies, England, the Dutch Republic, the Italian peninsula and the Ottoman Empire, connecting people separated by linguistic, religious, national, and continental divides. This dissertation starts by situating this transmission within a broader context that dates back to 1492 CE and then traces the three-stage process in which eschatological constructs originating in the Americas in the 1640s were transmitted across Europe to the Levant in the 1650s, preparing the minds of Jews and Christians for the return of these ideas from the Ottoman Empire in the 1660s. In this manner, this study seeks to make three contributions to the existing literature. It brings together often isolated historiographies, it unearths fresh archival sources, and it provides a new conceptual framework. Overall, it argues that one cannot understand the growth of apocalyptic tension that reached its peak in 1666 without examining the major historical events and processes that began in 1492 and affected Jews, Christians, and Muslims across the Atlantic and Mediterranean worlds.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter demonstrates the ways in which the two principal criteria for defining Latinx literature—identity and theme—are insufficient in making sense of this body of writing. It looks at three representative cases to demonstrate conclusively that we need a better way to understand the literature we have heretofore labelled Latinx. It examines a white writer (Daniel James) who, under a Latinx name (Danny Santiago), penned in the 1980s a popular Chicano novel of the barrio. It shows how the author of the novel The Madonnas of Echo Park, Brando Skyhorse, further confounds our understanding of identity matters and Latinx literature. He was raised as Native American and only as a teenager discovered he had a Mexican biological father. He has since written a memoir, Take This Man, about his upbringing, race, and ancestry. Finally, the chapter turns to a readily recognizable Latino author, Eduardo Halfon. However, this particular author writes on themes that critics would not readily identify as Latinx.

This chapter discusses how sixteenth-century Scottish court poets and English translators showed deference towards Du Bartas’ example. Thomas Hudson, John Stewart of Baldynneis, William Fowler, and other poets at James’ court expressed their admiration for Du Bartas’ verse but did not seek to emulate him. The scholar, ambassador, and poet Adriaan Damman composed a Latin translation of Sepmaine that was circulated among continental friends in manuscript, and in a revised print edition to promote James’ reputation abroad. We also see how Du Bartas’ first translators in London, aware of his Scottish connections, also complied with James’ vision of Du Bartas’ significance.

Abstract:
This chapter focuses on Joyce and Irish America. It argues that the phenomenon of Irish emigration to the United States, particularly in the post-Famine period, transformed the culture and society of Ireland in ways in which Joyce was responsive in his writings. The chapter begins with an overview of connections between Ireland and America in the post-Famine period. It then moves on to a discussion of Joyce’s concept of that history as it is expressed in his so-called ‘Triestine writings’ (1907–12). Clear and specific allusions to Irish America are rare in Dubliners, A Portrait, and Ulysses, so the discussion jumps to Finnegans Wake and the significance of Irish America to several key features and characters in that work. It concludes with an analysis of Joyce’s correspondence in the mid-1930s with his son Giorgio as the latter pursued a music career in the United States.

Hirschman has little sympathy for the latter and reserves some unflattering words for what he had seen as a disease in the social sciences—the search for models and paradigms that aim to prove theories rather than understand realities; among other things, the tendency had collapsed into old failurist nostrums Hirschman was combating in Latin America, and that were now infecting North American social science.

Abstract:
James Watt has already been established as a competent eighteenth-century chemist. His role as a chemical correspondent, however, has not been examined adequately. This chapter argues that through well-timed letters Watt circulated vital knowledge between two contemporary chemists, Joseph Black and James Keir. Two case studies in industrial chemistry—the production of alkali and the separation of plated metals—reveal Watt to be an active letter writer who initiated collaboration between business partners and communicated processes promptly. No mere passive conduit of information, Watt was a confidant who encouraged propriety in the manner of correspondence. He was a lynchpin between Black and Keir when the former was fearful of writing the latter, and he censured ill-timed disclosure of industrial secrets. This chapter concludes that future study of Watt’s epistolary exchanges with other chemists will establish more firmly his mediating role in chemical correspondence in the eighteenth-century Republic of Letters.

Abstract:
William James introduced the expression “radical empiricism.” The chapter explains what was supposed to make empiricism radical, and why James thought that was worth trying to do. That requires explaining the connection between radical empiricism and other themes in James’s work, including pluralism and the idea of pure experience. His work belongs to an effort from the latter nineteenth century to make empiricism more consistently empirical by overcoming the legacy of Ockham and nominalism, and it is this anti-nominalist animus that radicalizes James’s empiricism.

Abstract:
The performance of compressors can be improved in two ways by judicious removal from the flow path of the viscous flow in the boundary layers. First, removal of the boundary layer fluid just prior to or in a region of rapid pressure rise, either at shock incidence or more generally at the point of rapid pressure rise on the suction surface of the airfoil, can enable significant increases in the diffusion, hence in the work done by a stage for any given blade speed. Second, removal of the high entropy fluid in the boundary layer minimizes the required compression work in subsequent stages of compression, thereby raising the compression efficiency. Analysis has shown that the latter effect can result in approximately one half point increase in efficiency for each percent of (high entropy) fluid removal. Design studies have been carried out for two different stages to assess the increase in pressure ratio that may be achieved. One stage that has been designed would produce a pressure ratio of 2 at a tip speed of 1000 ft/sec, and may be very attractive for the fan stage of high-bypass turbofan engines. The other stage would produce a pressure ratio of 3 at a tip speed of 1500 ft/sec, and should be attractive as the first stage of a core compressor or the fan stage of a low-bypass ratio engine. An experiment has been completed, to examine the effect of boundary layer removal just prior to shock impingement on the suction surface of blades in a transonic rotor. The suction was implemented on 5 of the 23 blades of the rotor, providing a direct comparison of the flow behavior with and without suction. Analysis of the data has shown that the blades with suction have increased mass flow and that the flow more closely followed the suction surface near the trailing edge. The differences between aspirated and normal blades were most pronounced when the rotor was very close to stall. The third and fourth of the blades in the group with suction appear to be representative of the behavior to be expected of a rotor with suction on all blades. They exhibited improved efficiency and increased mass flow. The rotor as a whole with suction showed different stall behavior than its counterpart without boundary layer control. Future plans include the fabrication and experimental evaluation in the MIT Blowdown Compressor, of one of the two stages discussed above. In this experiment suction will be applied to all the blades in both rotor and stator, so that the increased work enabled by suction can be realized. This research was supported by AFOSR, Dr. James McMichael, and by AlliedSignal Aircraft Engines, Dr. Arun Sehra.
