Abstract:
The final phyllosoma of Panulirus cygnus metamorphoses to a non-feeding puerulus that lives on energy reserves accumulated in the final larva, and the metamorphic moult occurs mainly in the slope region adjoining the shelf-break off Western Australia. A review of the literature on field studies, laboratory rearing and nutritional studies of phyllosomal and other decapod zoeal larvae provided no evidence that metamorphosis in P. cygnus (or other shallow-water palinurids) is triggered by a direct environmental cue. It did indicate that metamorphosis results from the culmination of sustained nutrition and reserve energy levels through the later larval phase. Therefore, since the puerulus is secondarily lecithotrophic, it is considered that metamorphosis occurs only after the final phyllosoma has reached some critical, specific, level of stored energy reserves. Appropriate food for later larval development and successful metamorphosis of P. cygnus is more abundant in the shelf-break region (than further offshore) because this is a region of high plankton and micronekton biomass dominated by the Leeuwin Current. It also explains why metamorphosis occurs mainly in the shelf-break region. This review indicates research necessary for evaluation of the present interpretation and of larval recruitment processes in this species.

Abstract:
This study investigates the significance of metamorphosis in Arabic children’s literature, contending that it constitutes not only an extraordinary artistic expression but also warrants meticulous examination. The study's significance lies in its endeavor to unearth the implications of incorporating metamorphosis into children's literature. Through a comprehensive analysis of various examples employing symbolic and psychological methodologies, the study aims to shed light on the underlying reasons for the literary fascination with metamorphosis. Is metamorphosis utilized as a thematic element or a narrative technique? Does it serve to augment the fantastical elements within narratives or to invigorate the imagination of both children and adults? Is its primary function to disrupt established storytelling conventions and provoke intellectual inquiry? Furthermore, the study posits that metamorphosis embodies a philosophical endeavor to engage children in existential and cosmic inquiries by encapsulating the inherent conflicts of the universe. Moreover, metamorphosis encapsulates fundamental dichotomies, encompassing concepts such as reward and punishment, love, and hate. These foundational assumptions underpin the study, which aims to explore them across its various sections. In our humble opinion, the study of literary adaptation has not received the requisite attention in scientific research, especially in children's literature. Therefore, we recommend intensifying studies on this subject and paying attention to it, given its multifaceted implications that can shed light on many fields of knowledge.

Abstract:
Abstract: This article discusses how the seventeenth-century French fairy tale investigates embodiment through the figure of metamorphosis in the examples of Charles Perrault's "The Mirror or the Metamorphosis of Orante" (1661), Charlotte-Rose de La Force's "Les jeux d'esprit" (1701) and "Plus Belle que Fée" (1698), and Marie-Catherine d'Aulnoy's "La Chatte Blanche" (1696). These fairy-tale metamorphoses do not present a rich embodied language, but rather invite us to reconsider the dichotomies between mind and body, at stake in Cartesian philosophy, and between cognition and culture, central to today's conceptualization of the mind as "extended" beyond the body. Deploying the marvelous in playful ways, the conteuses take embodiment beyond the limits of everyday mimesis.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT: This article analyses Petrarch's treatment of Narcissus in his vernacular poetry, focusing on his inclusion of an aspect of the myth not usually found in medieval vernacular rewritings of Ovid's Metamorphoses : the flower which seals Narcissus's metamorphosis. Setting Petrarch's flower-Narcissus in dialogue with passages from the anonymous fourteenth-century Ovide moralisé demonstrates the poet's distinctive treatment of the myth relative to his lyric and romance precursors even as he preserves its significance for dramatizing the ambivalent pleasures of erōs . Desiring 'in the manner of the flower' affects lover and beloved alike, with implications for how we read vegetal metamorphosis in Petrarch.

Abstract:
Abstract The language of arboreal metamorphosis in Lady Mary Wroth’s pastoral song “The Spring Now Come att Last” from Pamphilia to Amphilanthus (1621) may invoke the myth of Apollo and Daphne. However, the Ovidian narrative so central to Petrarchan poetics celebrates the male poet by erasing the female voice. This essay instead explores parallels between Wroth’s poem and the metamorphosis of the Heliades, who turn into poplars while mourning their brother Phaeton in book 2 of the Metamorphoses. Their transformation is predicated on an act of female speech, however precarious and evanescent. This alternative Ovidian scenario offers a model of lyric that capitalizes on the brief resonance that the female voice acquires at the point of vanishing. By deploying it in her song, Wroth not only rewrites Petrarch through Ovid in order to articulate a gendered lyric voice but shows herself a poet attuned to the crucial developments in English lyric of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, in particular the complex relationship between the Petrarchan and the Ovidian legacies.

Full text
Abstract:
The edge of the abyss: Metamorphosis as reality in contemporary Native American literature, approaches the concept of metamorphosis from a metaphysical and philosophical perspective as a culturally defined reality. It focuses on the works of contemporary Native American writers: Leslie Silko, Scott Momaday, Gerald Vizenor, and Louise Erdrich, who address the metamorphic properties of Time and the metamorphic abilities of Man as a continuing link to the supernatural and natural worlds through stories which descend from a history of oral traditions. The Edge of the Abyss explores the use of language and stories as a cultural survival technique for the retention of tribal ideology and world view. It addresses the fine line which exists between Western and Native American concepts of reality in order to re-define metamorphosis within a cultural context. This thesis uses an interdisciplinary approach utilizing anthropological, sociological, shamanistic, literary, and cultural materials in a comparative analysis.

Abstract:
My dissertation reevaluates medieval concepts of body and identity by analyzing literary depictions of metamorphosis in romance. Focusing on examples such as the hag-turned-damsel in the Wife of Bath's Tale, the lump-turned-boy in The King of Tars and the demon-saint of Sir Gowther, I take as my starting point the fact that while those texts pivot on instances of physical transformation, they refrain from representing such change. This pattern of undescribed physical metamorphosis has broad implications for recent work on evolving notions of change and identity beginning in the high Middle Ages. While Caroline Walker Bynum has read the medieval outpouring of tales about werewolves and hybrids as imaginative responses to social upheavals, I consider why such medieval writings ironically focused on shape-shifters but avoided metamorphosis itself. I argue that we can understand why Chaucer and other writers resisted imagining bodies in the process of transforming by examining the history of ideas regarding metamorphosis in the medieval west. While the foremost classical writer on transformation, Ovid, reveled in depictions of metamorphosis, by the late Middle Ages a new religious discourse on change enjoyed prominence, the doctrine of transubstantiation. In its effort to separate substance and accidents, Eucharistic theory strove to detach identity from physical change and exhibited a certain level of repugnance over images of physical transformation. I argue that medieval secular writings address that anxiety over bread-turned-God in moments such as the close of the Wife of Bath's Tale. In a scene that recalls the place of veiling in Eucharistic ritual, the hag uses the bed curtain first to cloak then reveal her newly young and beautiful physique. Ultimately, the corpus of medieval literature on change--a body of work that engages both Ovidian and Eucharistic writings--suggests that identity intertwines with physical metamorphosis in a productive, if problematically unstable, manner.

Introduction -- Fantastic metamorphosis as childhood 'otherness' -- The metamorphic growth of wings : deviant development and adolescent hybridity -- Tenors of maturation: developing powers and changing identities -- Changing representations of werewolves: ideologies of racial and ethnic otherness -- The desire for transcendence: jouissance in selkie narratives -- Conclusion -- Bibliography -- Appendix: "The great Silkie of Sule Skerry": three versions.
My central thesis is that fantastic motifs work on a metaphorical level to encapsulate and express ideologies that have frequently been naturalised as 'truths'. I develop a theory of motif metaphors in order to examine the ideologies generated by the fantastic motif of metamorphosis in a range of contemporary children's and young adult fantasy texts. Although fantastic metamorphosis is an exceptionally prevalent and powerful motif in children's and young adult fantasy literature, symbolising important ideas about change and otherness in relation to childhood, adolescence, and maturation, and conveying important ideologies about the world in which we live, it has been little analysed in children's literature criticism. The detailed analyses of particular metamorphosis motif metaphors in this study expand and refine our academic understanding of the metamorphosis figure and consequently provide insight into the underlying principles and particular forms of a variety of significant ideologies.
By examining several principal metamorphosis motif metaphors I investigate how a number of specific cultural beliefs are constructed and represented in contemporary children's and young adult fantasy literature. I particularly focus upon metamorphosis as a metaphor for childhood otherness; adolescent hybridity and deviant development; maturation as a process of self-change and physical empowerment; racial and ethnic difference and otherness; and desire and jouissance. I apply a range of pertinent cultural theories to explore these motif metaphors fully, drawing on the interpretive frameworks most appropriate to the concepts under consideration. I thus employ general psychoanalytic theories of embodiment, development, language, subjectivity, projection, and abjection; poststructuralist, social constructionist, and sociological theories; and wide-ranging literary theories, philosophical theories, gender and feminist theories, race and ethnicity theories, developmental theories, and theories of fantasy and animality. The use of such theories allows for incisive explorations of the explicit and implicit ideologies metaphorically conveyed by the motif of metamorphosis in different fantasy texts.
In this study, I present a number of specific analyses that enhance our knowledge of the motif of fantastic metamorphosis and of significant cultural ideologies. In doing so, I provide a model for a new and precise approach to the analysis of fantasy literature.

Esta pesquisa apresenta a proposta de investigar a figuratividade poética no texto latino, valendo-se do instrumental teórico que nos fornecem a Poética e a Semiótica Literária, tendo como corpus o episódio de “Cíniras e Mirra”, que integra a obra Metamorfoses (livro X, 298-502) de autoria de Ovídio (43 a.C. - 17 d.C.), considerado um dos maiores poetas da Roma Antiga. As Metamorfoses são um longo poema em versos hexâmetros, composto de quinze livros, que trata do surgimento dos elementos que compõem o mundo e da transformação ocorrida com diversos seres mitológicos em uma narrativa contínua. No trecho selecionado para a análise, conta-se a transformação de uma bela jovem na árvore da mirra, após cometer incesto com o próprio pai, Cíniras, rei de Chipre. Em um trabalho desenvolvido como pesquisa de IC intitulado “Poética e Figuratividade: uma análise de ‘Io’ (Ovídio, Metamorfoses, I, 583-747)”, procurou-se concentrar na primeira etapa dos processos de figuratividade, isto é, na figuração do discurso, quando um tema é revestido por figuras semióticas. Tomando os efeitos de sentido captados pela percepção e apreendidos por meio da leitura como dados de base, pretende-se investigar no corpus o arranjo particular da linguagem. Como resultado dessa investigação produziu-se um discurso metalinguístico a fim de reconhecer os recursos da figuratividade poética determinantes da expressão. Ainda, como base para o desenvolvimento do trabalho, será produzida uma tradução de estudo (literal) acompanhada de notas de referência, com comentários concernentes a dados gerais de cultura (mitologia, história, geografia, filosofia, etc.).
This research is a proposal to investigate the figurative poetics in the Latin text, drawing on the theoretical tools provided by Poetics and Literary Semiotics, with the corpus of the episode "Cinyras and Myrrha", integrating part of the Metamorphoses (Book X, 298-502), by Ovid (43 BC - 17 AD), regarded as one of the greatest poets of Ancient Rome. The Metamorphoses is a long poem in hexameter verses, separated into fifteen books. It depicts the creation of elements of the world and the transmutations of several mythological beings, with a narration that takes place in a continuous form. The selected passage for analysis recounts the transformation of a beautiful young woman into the myrrh tree, after committing incest with her own father, Cinyras, the king of Cyprus. In an already developed undergraduation research entitled “Poetics and Figurativity: an analysis of ‘Io’ (Ovid, Metamorphoses, I, 583-747), we have focused on the first step of the figuration process, that being the figuration of speech, when a subject is covered with semiotic figures. Considering the effects of meaning captured by perception and seized by careful reading as database, we intend to investigate in the corpus particular arrangements of language. The result of this research has produced a metalinguistic discourse to recognize the features of poetical figurativity that are determinants to the expression. Furthermore, as a basis for the development of this work, we will produce a literal study translation, accompanied by background notes, and comments concerning general data culture, such as mythology, history, geography, philosophy, etc.

Resumo: Esta pesquisa apresenta três objetivos principais: 1) refletir criticamente sobre as diferentes opiniões de autores do século XX que se debruçaram sobre a produção literária de Ovídio, destacando dela os defeitos e o engenho; 2) oferecer uma tradução do relato mitológico de Níobe, narrado no sexto livro das Metamorfoses de Ovídio (v. 146-312), sem a preocupação de recriar a poeticidade do texto original latino, mas oferecendo equivalência lingüística bastante para a compreensão do texto - seguir-se-ão à tradução notas de cultura sempre que houver necessidade de esclarecer algum termo (mitológico, geográfico, histórico, etc); 3) realizar um estudo semiótico do episódio narrado nas Metamorfoses, que permita ao leitor compreender de que maneira a história (fabula) e sua expressão poética - o modo como o texto foi composto por meio do arranjo das palavras em verso, com todos os recursos permitidos pelo sistema linguístico do latim, reapropriado pelo(s) sistema(s) da poesia - unem-se a fim de construir sentidos que se valem (mas ao mesmo tempo ultrapassam) a mera gramaticalidade. O episódio mitológico de Níobe relata a audácia da esposa do lendário rei de Tebas, Anfião, ao ousar comparar-se à Latona, mãe dos gêmeos Febo (Apolo) e Febe (Diana). A mortal se julgava mais merecedora de receber os incensos e as preces ofertados pelas tebanas que aquela deusa, porque julga sua linhagem e sua numerosa prole (ao todo são quatorze filhos) superiores às da outra.

Abstract: This research has three main goals: 1) to reflect critically on different opinion of twentieth century's authors who have studied Ovid's literature, highlighting its faults and cleverness; 2) to provide a translation of Niobe's mythological account, reported in the sixth book of Ovid's Metamorphoses (v. 146-312), without concerning to recreate the poeticity of the original Latin text, but offering linguistic equivalence enough to the text understanding - the translation will be followed by culture notes whenever it's necessary to elucidate any term (mythological, geographical, historical, etc.); 3) to perform a semiotic study of the episode reported on the Metamorphoses, which allows the reader to comprehend how the story (fabula) and its poetic expression - the way the text was composed by the arrangement of words in verse, with all resources allowed by the linguistic system of Latin language, reappropriated by the Poetic system - unite in order to create valid meanings, but at the same time go beyond the mere grammaticality. The mythological episode of Niobe reports the audacity of the wife of the Thebes' legendary king, Amphion, by daring to compare herself to Latona, mother of Phoebus (Apollo) and Phoebe (Diana) twins. The mortal was thought worthier of receiving incense and prayers offered by the Theban than the goddess since she judges her ancestry and her numerous offspring (together they are fourteen) higher than the other. Such heresy earned her a terrible punishment... (Complete abstract click electronic access below)

Abstract:
In 1912, Franz Kafka gives life to the character Gregor Samsa, who undergoes a metamorphosis capable of transforming him into an insect. The metaphors used in the literature are widely applied as a way of rewriting a story in an attractive, creative and curious way, in this article, however, the possibility is raised that this narrative mentions a recurrent neurological pathology know as Guillain Barre Syndrome (GBS). The patology is characterized by an ascending, symmetrical polyradiculoneuropathy, which is often associated with viral prodromes or post-vaccination periods. In classic GBS, motor symptoms may be accompanied by associated sensory symptoms. During the text, it is possible to notice when Gregor says that “the lower part of his body was, perhaps at that moment, the most sensitive of all”. One of the complications of GBS is characterized by weakness of the oropharyngeal and cervical muscles leading to hypophonic dysarthria as possibly mentioned in the book “an irrepressible and painful wheezing” and as the condition progress the realization that “certainly, they no longer understood their words”. One of the most severe symptoms of Guillain Barré syndrome is the involvement of the ventilatory muscles. We correlated this possibility with the following text: “the shortness of breath was already beginning to manifest itself, since, even in the old days, I did not have a completely reliable lung”. Diagnosis and correct treatment are essential to ensure lower morbidity and mortality in patients. The exposition of technical-scientific arguments associated with citations from the book as the basis of a literary clinical reasoning.

Abstract:
The Islamic gardens are, even today, one of the great icons of beauty in the world and a symbol of creativity. They are a living and cultural environment that also show the intelligence of the creators in the response to desertification in arid zones. Gardens in Islamic cities are a relevant element in the morphological composition of the city. This article presents a definition of Islamic gardens and their origins, followed by an approach to their characteristics, namely their geographical location, their morphological aspects, as well as the role they play in the city and in the community. A comparison is also made between different Islamic gardens, observing their evolution over time. The review of historical knowledge and literature aims to provide an understanding of the emergence of this garden model, its characteristics and the transformations undergone during the expansion of Islamic civilization in the world. Keywords: Islamic Garden, Islamic City, paradise, Garden metamorphosis Os jardins islâmicos são, ainda hoje, um dos grandes ícones de beleza no mundo e um símbolo de criatividade. São um ambiente vivo e cultural que mostram, de igual forma, a inteligência dos criadores na resposta à desertificação em zonas áridas. Os jardins nas cidades islâmicas são um elemento relevante na composição morfológica da cidade. Neste artigo apresenta-se uma definição de jardins islâmicos e das suas origens, seguida de uma abordagem das suas características, nomeadamente a sua localização geográfica, os seus aspetos morfológicos, assim como o papel que desempenham na cidade e na comunidade. É feito também a comparação entre diferentes jardins islâmicos, observando as evoluções ao longo do tempo.

Abstract:
Abstract Annular shale creep barriers which can guarantee long-term well integrity over the entire lifespan of the well can be stimulated by temperature elevation caused by artificial heating inside the wellbore. Prior work has shown that heating can significantly accelerate barrier formation, but may also damage the shale formation if certain temperatures are applied. This paper reports on the optimum thermal conditions for shale barrier formation based on extensive new laboratory as well as literature data. Thermally accelerated creep behavior was studied for the Lark and the Shetland North Sea shales. Large-scale triaxial equipment was used to study the behavior of shales under downhole stress and pressure conditions while varying temperature. In addition, an extensive literature study investigated the thermal effect of shales used for nuclear containment, such as the Boom Clay in Belgium, Cox Shale in France, and Opalinus Clay in Switzerland. The investigation focused on the impacts of temperature elevation on important shale properties such as creep rate, sealing and self-healing ability, and temperature-induced porosity, permeability, and mineralogical changes. Both the laboratory investigation and the literature study showed that there is an optimum range for artificial thermal stimulation of shale barriers, with an upper temperature of 200°C – 300°C that should not be exceeded. At lower temperatures, thermal pore fluid expansion may lead to effective stress reduction and shear failure on shale bedding planes. In the optimum range, fluid thermal expansion is effectively negated by thermally-induced shale consolidation, and barrier formation is optimally accelerated, which is of great practical value for field implementations. Above the optimum range, irreversible dehydration and metamorphosis of the clay constituent of the shale happen and the shale loses its ability to creep to form a barrier and self-heal. This important result shows that heating inside wellbores to improve/accelerate creep of shales needs to be a controlled, engineered process in order to yield a competent barrier. This favors the use of a temperature-controlled heater rather than a less-controllable exothermic reaction. Shale barriers seal annuli much better and more reliably than cement barriers. Moreover, their self-healing ability offers the ability to guarantee annular well integrity for an indefinite period, including the P&A phase. Thermal stimulation is preferred by operators to accelerate barrier formation without requiring annular access. The findings of this paper provide important theoretical and practical guidance on how to optimally stimulate shale barriers and avoid pitfalls associated with thermally-induced shale damage.

Abstract:
First of all, we need to overview at the history and essence of Sufism in order to understand the place of the Sufism system and the teaching of Khurramism in this system. “Sufism“ or “tasavvuf“ are essentially of the same meaning. Both terms are used parallel to express the same belief system. Sufism had been a widespread religious-philosophical, mystical moral-ethical thinking and behavior system in the Middle Ages. There are various versions on the origin and essence of this term. The Sufism and the tasavvuf system have had proper and similar features with a number of religions, religious - philosophical and faith systems of human-cultural development up to it. One of these systems is Khurramism. The Khurramism was the ideology of the Khurramid movement, which took place in the late eighteenth -early ninth century. The Khurramid movement had a political, as well as religious-irfani, religious-philosophical-mystical character. The religious faith and values of this movement is the subject of disputes so far. In the historical literature, the words “Khurramids “ or “Khurramdinler “ have appeared since in the time of the Abu Muslim rebel. Among the ideological views of Khurramids known to science, there are some points considered important by them that they indicate the presence of religious-ideological views, and these views were later included in the Sufism system. There were three basic aspects of the religious beliefs of Khurramids: 1) Hulul - God's personification in man; 2) Tanasukh – (reincarnation, metamorphosis as a scientific term) - the pass of the soul from one body to another; 3) Rijat -rising from the dead; Resurrection. They are purely religiousphilosophical- mystical elements. The Sufism system and the Kizilbashlik widely embrace the religious and ideological principles of Babek and Khurramism, and we have also tried to talk about these issues in our articles. Keywords: Sufism, Khurramism, Hulul, Tanasukh, Rijat.

Abstract:
The present study aims to trace the guidelines of an ongoing phenomenon, the transition, reflected in post-Soviet Romanian literature, especially the transition seen and experienced by children. Two novels are analyzed: „Kinderland” by Liliana Corobca and „Children’s Crusade” by Florina Ilis. Regardless of the aesthetic stakes, the texts have at the center of the action the experiences of the infantile self, its formative and deforming events that denounce the political and social context of the current period. They are barometers both of the era and of the literature that was published in these years.

Abstract:
The work deals with Adrian Makedonov’s long-term study of the creative heritage of Nikolai Zabolotsky. Over the course of 20 years, Makedonov published a number of articles about the poet, which resulted in one of the first monographs about him (“Nikolai Zabolotsky. Life. Creativity. Metamorphoses”, 1968). The researcher tried to give a holistic analysis of the poet’s creative fate and the development of his artistic skills. This became possible as a result of a pains-taking analysis of all works available at that time, and at all levels of the poetic text (from the system of images to the features of versification). Repeatedly Makedonov entered into polemics with other researchers, in particular with Yu.M. Lotman, defending his view both on Zabolotsky’s poetry and on the methodology for studying poetic text. The issue of controversy is touched upon in the work.

Abstract:
In the contemporary epoch, globalization, spurred by rapid advancements in information technology (IT), is conjectured to be a significant driver of economic growth. This research embarks on unravelling the nuanced interrelations among globalization, IT, and economic growth through a bibliometric analysis of extant scientific literature. Employing VOSviewer for the bibliometric scrutiny, an exhaustive sample of scholarly articles from Scopus was meticulously examined. The principal objective was to ascertain the thematic nucleus within this academic ambit. The findings accentuate that trade and financial globalization, technological innovations, and economic development are the cardinal themes. Particularly, the analysis sheds light on the convoluted relationships of economic growth intertwined with trade globalization and IT. However, an important observation made is that the dividends of global trade are not equitably distributed across countries globally. As a consequence, while numerous sectors flourish owing to digitization, others wrestle with structural metamorphoses. This inequity, amalgamated with technological progressions like automation and digital transformation, foments escalating sentiments of scepticism, protectionism, and reticence towards globalization among certain scholarly factions, notwithstanding other experts extolling the myriad benefits of the globalization trajectory. The research method's meticulous bibliometric approach, utilizing VOSviewer, has enabled a holistic understanding of the prevalent discourse, thereby providing a robust foundation for future inquiries into this multifaceted interplay.
