Abstract:
Feedback systems that control the leg joints of animals must be highly flexible in adapting to different behavioural tasks. One manifestation of such flexibility is changes in the gain of joint control networks. The femur­tibia (FT) control network of the locust leg is one of the feedback systems most thoroughly studied with regard to its neural circuitry. Despite excellent information concerning network topology, however, actual gain changes and their underlying mechanisms have not yet been examined because of the marked spontaneous variations in the action of the control network for

Abstract:
Corrective flight steering with the hindlegs was investigated in intact tethered flying locusts inside a wind tunnel as well as in animals dissected for intracellular recording and showing fictive flight activity. In intact tethered flying animals, activity in the second coxal abductor muscle (M126) was highly correlated with hindleg steering and was coupled to the elevator phase of the flight cycle. Fictive flight and steering could also be elicited in animals dissected for intracellular recording of motoneurones innervating M126. During fictive flight activity, motoneurones 126 were rhythmic

The paper discusses Vladivostok – “an eccentric city on the edge of cultural space”, in Yuri Lotman’s terms – as a locus of intercultural transfers (both in direct and indirect sense) in Somerset Maugham’s and Maurice Kennedy’s short stories as well as in William Gerhardie “novel on Russian themes” Futility. For Vladivostok (as for St. Petersburg whose natives founded the Pacific fort and became its first residents), railway stations and bridges are the key “topographic indices”, in Vladimir Toporov’s terms.

The article is devoted to the role that various castles played in the historical narrative of Walter Scott. The object of the study was mainly his first novel «Waverly». The question posed in the article is formulated as follows: why did Walter Scott, who distanced his writing from the genre of the Gothic novel and at the same time did not focus his attention on the reconstruction of the knight’s novel (both of them widely used the topos of the castle) fill his novels with the description of castles, making them the main place of action and the condition of the plot intrigues.

Las novelas de Emmanuelle Bayamack-Tam, pobladas por personajes marginales, con múltiples psicopatologías, constituyen un objeto privilegiado para la reflección sobre la inscripción de la locura en la literatura. Tras los pasos de Foucault, la escritora problematiza la producción social y discursiva de la locura; en sus textos, despliega un discurso no sólo sobre, sino también de la locura o más bien de las locuras (polífonas, plurales), montando una palabra excesiva y transgresiva, lunática y lírica, que oscila entre el silencio y el canto.

Abstract:
The short history of the Hollywood novel provides a useful index of the ways that 20th-century U.S. literature has imagined the relation of sign systems to the external reality with which they would coincide. Very early Hollywood novels like Harry Leon Wilson's Merton of the Movies (1922) found their critiques of the nascent film industry on its fictiveness and conventionality, indicting Hollywood for the falsification of reality. Literature in general and the Hollywood novel in particular would serve, by implication, to set the record straight. As modernism in its many permutations supplanted

Abstract:
Simultaneous intracellular recordings were made in locusts from (a) flight motor neurones and (b) output interneurones of the flight oscillator. The insects were mounted with the head at the centre of rotation of an artificial horizon. During fictive flight, these animals responded to simulated deviations from course with the changes in motor output appropriate to course-correction manoeuvres, as previously described. In the motor neurone of depressor muscle MN98 (mesothoracic second basalar) these changes take the form of systematic variation in amplitude in the cyclical depolarization seen i

Rhythmic activity of leg motor neurons could be evoked in isolated locust thoracic ganglia as well as in preparations of two or three connected thoracic ganglia superfused with the muscarinic agonist pilocarpine. Rhythms were always more regular and reliably elicited in single isolated ganglia. When the ganglia were connected, rhythmic activity of leg motor neurons was not usually simultaneously evoked in all six hemiganglia. Typically, some of the hemiganglia were rhythmically active, whereas others showed tonic or highly irregular activity. 2. Action potentials from leg motor neuron pools

In this article, Erika T. Lin explores theatrical performance as a material medium by considering which elements might have been privileged in the dramaturgy of Shakespeare and his contemporaries. After considering the strengths and weaknesses of Robert Weimann’s influential concepts of locus and platea, she offers an alternative model for understanding the authority of performance in early modern England, in which stage geography and actor–audience interactivity, two key components of Weimann’s formulation, are less important than the interplay between representation and presentation.

Abstract:
The oft despised and ignored genre of travel writing was recognized as worthy of scholarly investigation in 1970s thanks to Edward Said’s Orientalism, the wave of deconstructionism, and postcolonialism (Calzati, 2015). For these scholars, travel writers do not present a transparent window to an alien space and its residents even though they normally claim it. For them the representation of the traveled terrain and travelees is an ideological construction which is tainted with the travel writer’s ‘habitus’ and ‘field’ and crafted through fictional devices.
