McWilliam, Paulette S., and Bruce F. Phillips. "Metamorphosis of the final phyllosoma and secondary lecithotrophy in the puerulus of Panulirus cygnus George: a review." Marine and Freshwater Research 48, no. 8 (1997): 783. http://dx.doi.org/10.1071/mf97159.

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.

Abstract:

Current scientific work is devoted to the comparative analysis of how the term "metamorphosis" is given in linguistic dictionaries. The use of the term metamorphosis in various fields of science is based on the analysis of the phenomenon of metamorphosis in their lexical meaning and application, in particular when translating works of art. In this study, we tried to cover the problems and issues related to the subject of metamorphosis in the field of translation. One of the oldest and most difficult problems of translation is the translation of cultural units in modern linguistics, the adequate transfer of the content of texts from one language to another in the process of translation. There are some clear terms and expressions in world languages that cannot be translated into other languages of the world. Those words or phrases are usually closely connected with culture, history and literature of a nation. In linguistics, the phenomenon of metamorphosis is characterized by a semantic transformation or transformation of the image of a concept, event, and an animate or inanimate object. Metamorphosis interprets translation change. Metamorphosis is the leading fantasy motif of evolution in fantasy fairy tales in literature. In this article, we have tried to analyze the lexical meaning, interpretation and scientific definitions of the phenomenon of metamorphosis.

Abstract:

The oeuvre of Julio CortÁzar contains many facets of autoexoticism. In this essay, I engage with a few of his works to examine the notion of autoexoticism in two main aspects: first, the transformation of the self into the other self as a form; second, autoexoticists as those whose notion of the self inhabits their own desirous gaze.Textual examples in Cortázar's literature that illustrate the first aspect are ubiquitous. For instance, in his short story “Lejana” we observe the alteration of Alina Reyes into a beggar in Budapest as she envisages with increasing clarity in her diary, while living in Buenos Aires, another self in Budapest. Her obsession with and fervent desire for this other self culminates in a final metamorphosis into it. The metamorphosis is based on the narcissistic reduplication of her self. In other words, through the externalization and exoticization of her self, she assumes an autoexoticist one.

Abstract:

AbstractThis review examines the recent literature on tsetse (Glossina spp.) metamorphosis behaviour and its regulation. The behavioural events associated with metamorphosis are highly specific and most occur only once during the life of the fly. The review begins with the larva's commitment to metamorphosis and then discusses the behaviour associated with parturition, wandering of the third instar larva, pupariation, pupation and adult eclosion. While certain aspects of tsetse metamorphosis behaviour are common to the higher Diptera, the peculiar reproductive strategy of tsetse has dictated many modifications. Most notable of the tsetse peculiarities are the larva's late commitment to metamorphosis, the contribution by the mother in deciding the onset of the wandering period, the brevity of the wandering period, the involvement of the nervous system in co-ordinating puparial tanning, the tight pack aging of the pupa within the puparium, the long duration of pharate adult development, and the great expansion of the body that occurs following eclosion. A final section discusses the potential for disrupting tsetse metamorphosis.

Abstract:

This article examines the importance of imaginary spaces and places (literary isotopias) in André Malraux’s Les Noyers de l’Altenburg (1943) and Romain Gary’s Education européenne (1945). It analyses the metamorphoses of space and place, together with the relationships between those spaces and the novels’ characters, in order to identify commonality as well as differences between the approaches of the two authors. The roles of nature, art and myth in the two novels are also considered, particularly in the context of war. Moreover, the article takes into account the humanism of both authors against the background of wartime. André Malraux’s crucial concept of metamorphosis finds significant echoes in Romain Gary’s novel Education européenne, particularly in the aspiration to transform the world, change mentalities and remake communities both in the national and international contexts. For both writers, the metaphysical struggle against death is often portrayed as being more important than the military conflict with the enemy. Moreover, the novels of both writers have undergone a number of literary metamorphoses in terms of textual genesis and generation. Although Romain Gary’s work is probably less well known today than that of André Malraux, we may find, in conclusion, that the former’s approach, style and content of thought are actually just as “modern” and appealing to readers nowadays.

Abstract:

AbstractThis essay is a prolegomenon to the general study of Ovid's relations to Renaissance art and art theory. As is well known, the Metamorphoses determined the subjects of numerous works of art during the Renaissance. What is not sufficiently appreciated, however, is the extent to which the ancient poet's sense of "metamorphosis" as a figure of poesis, making or "poetry," helped shape Renaissance notions of poetic transformation in the visual arts. The emergent taste for the non finito in the Renaissance, most notably in the work of Michelangelo, had important roots in Ovidean aesthetics.

Abstract:

Abstract Andrew Schelling recalls and discusses a college course, “World Poetry,” which Norman O. Brown taught at University of California, Santa Cruz, in 1974. The turbulent politics and weird, harrowing culture changes of North America set a context. Brown's class met weekly in a remote meadow ringed by second-growth redwoods. Brown developed his interest in the “law of metamorphosis,” which he thought poetry captures, and put his attention on how the human body changes, producing text as sound or performance. Using two anthologies compiled by Jerome Rothenberg, Brown drew students into a poetry that was physical, raw, multilingual, and perhaps a scriptural base for the era's counterculture. Schelling portrays Brown as a quixotic figure, Sir John Falstaff among scholars. A quick sketch of the “Santa Cruz ecosystem” brings into the mix Gregory Bateson, whose thoughts on evolution paralleled Brown's on poetry, and Jan Willis, veteran civil rights activist and scholar of Sanskrit.

Abstract:

Many have written of imperial qualities perceived or publicized, particularly of those attached to the emperor Constantine. Although only a tediously exhaustive volume could do justice to the whole subject, and any essay which does not embrace the whole runs the risk of being faulted for some omission or other, one may yet justify a particular concern. The subject of the present paper is the tension between form and function, which appears nowhere so readily as in a series of similar literary exercises spanning a number of years, and the demonstration that form will always yield to practical necessity. For example, the rise, fall, and rehabilitation of Maximian through seven of the Panegyrici Latini clearly illustrates the many functions of a standard form. Constantine's is a more complicated case which involves two kinds of form and a certain amount of Augustan posturing.

Abstract:

Language and flesh create each other. here you will find three stories, from three ongoing projects, that are each in some way about the metamorphosis between word and body. Each story is an example of my use of fiction writing as a scholarly tool: for understanding a map as a material object, for weaving lives from textual fragments, and for making a little world with little gods as a way of exploring a work of theory. Fiction, here, is an apparatus for paying new kinds of attention, as well as a vehicle for creating stories, worlds, and selves to give to others. Some persistent concerns in my fiction writing have deeply influenced how I pay attention to the documents I work with in my research: concerns with materiality and history, with the legibility of bodies, with fragmentariness and the transformative power of desire, with the nature of selves and flesh as constantly in the process of becoming, with voicing and with fiction as technologies of conversion. (I did not understand, before writing “The Gesture of Smoking a Pipe,” which you'll read below, that there was an important link in Vilém Flusser's work between physical gesture, selfhood, and the calling down of—and metamorphosis of selves into—gods. Now, the connection between movement, identity, and conversion is becoming central to my work as a historian.) Imagining materiality and metamorphoses this way—and practicing the metamorphosis and conversion of documents—has pointed me toward the ways that materiality and material experience emerge out of relations and relationships and the ways that the kind of orientations that relate bodies in space and time leave traces in our documents.

Abstract:

In Kafka, The Other takes on an alien and otherworldly form. Gregor Samsa, Kafka’s protagonist in the ‘Metamorphosis’, leads an uneventful life until his transformation into a grotesque monster incites the worst in his family. According to Bakhtin, the grotesque in literature and art was used as a form of satire to question the hypocrisy and hegemony of the dominant class. In ‘Metamorphosis’,Gregor morphs into an interstitiality that his family finds extremely threatening. He is no more their own, he is The Other and his grotesqueness is proof of this fact. In this paper, we study the relationship between grotesqueness and The Other in Kafka’s ‘Metamorphosis’.

Abstract:

In Book 6 of Apuleius’ Metamorphoses, Lucius contemplates his possible death at the hands of the robbers. After one robber threatens to throw him off a cliff, he remarks to himself how easily such an act would kill him (Met. 6.26):‘uides istas rupinas proximas et praeacutas in his prominentes silices, quae te penetrantes antequam decideris membratim dissipabunt? nam et illa ipsa praeclara magia tua uultum laboresque tibi tantum asini, uerum corium non asini crassum, sed hirudinis tenue membranulum circumdedit. quin igitur masculum tandem sumis animum tuaeque saluti, dum licet, consulis?’‘Do you see that ravine nearby and the sharp rocks jutting into it which will impale you before you hit the bottom and tear you limb from limb? For that wondrous magic of yours gave you only the appearance and hardships of an ass, but in truth it surrounded you not with the thick hide of an ass but with the thin little membrane of a leech. Why not, therefore, take up your manly spirit at last and seek your safety while you can?’Lucius seems to contradict the description of his metamorphosis at 3.24: pili mei crassantur in setas, et cutis tenella duratur in corium, ‘my hair thickens into bristles and my thin skin hardens into hide’. Met. 6.26 suggests that Lucius’ metamorphosis may not be as complete as it initially seemed: his skin is not the thick hide of an ass but the delicate membrane of a leech. This passage is further complicated by a textual dispute: where all modern editions and most translations read hirudinis, ‘leech’, our earliest and best manuscripts have hirundinis, ‘swallow’. I propose that we should restore ‘swallow’ on the testimony of these manuscripts and because it better reflects Lucius’ initial desire for an avian rather than an asinine transformation. My examination of this passage will also highlight the liminal nature of Lucius’ metamorphosis. Despite his apparent physical transformation, he remains caught between the human and the animal worlds in both mind and body.

Abstract:

This study explores Kafka's "Metamorphosis" using a modernistic lens. The study employs a qualitative method, analyzing textual lines through the ideas of modernism presented by Berry (1995). Findings reveal that Kafka employed experimental writing techniques of symbolism and stream of consciousness to depict elements of hope and the human connection with himself. Moreover, "Metamorphosis" contains modernistic themes of dehumanization, existential crisis, fear, violence, and absurdity. All these themes signify the degradation of Samsa to the extent that he ultimately meets his death. This study paves the way for academia to perceive literature in a broader sense rather than confining it to a single lens of interpretation.

Abstract:

Summary The paper characterizes the poetics of the Sorbian poet Róža Domašcyna (*1951). Domašcyna creates diverse methods of metamorphosis in her numerous lyrical works. Different concepts of metamorphosis from Ovid to Goethe as well as concepts of Chinese philosophy are discussed. The novelty of Domašcyna’s concept lies in her language, particularly in the mutation of sound and transformation of all reality. The paper uses “parkfiguren,” a speech composition created together with the composer Harald Muenz, as an example to analyze Domašcyna’s new metamorphosis. It is precisely her extremely uncertain take on metamorphosis that makes this poetic language the language of our present.

Abstract:

Summary: This article analyses literary proteanism in Ramon Vinyes’ narrative and particularly in his short story “El llac d’Atitlán”. In this tale Ramon Vinyes turns into fiction his reflections about literary dynamism and the interconnection between literary systems. Literature facilitates knowledge transfer throughout epochs and cultures. Besides, the literary text is the result of various metamorphoses in which individuality and cultural hegemony play an outstanding role. “El llac d’Atitlán” fictionalises through the imagination of a Guatemalan poet the transfer of Renaissance philosophy in Latin America and its corruption under the influence of North American culture. Intertextuality and self-reference are the mechanisms to reshape knowledge. Literary proteanism becomes apparent through semantic and narratological transformation. Keywords: proteanism, knowledge transfer, intertextuality, self-reference, literary system, imperialism, metamorphosis, Pico della Mirandola, tellurism, Grupo de Barranquilla

Abstract:

ABSTRACT To biologically explain why the orthodontic treatment does not induce pulp necrosis and calcific metamorphosis of the pulp, this paper presents explanations based on pulp physiology, microscopy and pathology, and especially the cell and tissue phenomena that characterize the induced tooth movement. The final reflections are as follows: 1) the orthodontic movement does not induce pulp necrosis or calcific metamorphosis of the pulp; 2) there is no literature or experimental and clinical models to demonstrate or minimally evidence pulp alterations induced by orthodontic movement; 3) when pulp necrosis or calcific metamorphosis of the pulp is diagnosed during orthodontic treatment or soon after removal of orthodontic appliances, its etiology should be assigned to concussion dental trauma, rather than to orthodontic treatment; 4) the two pulp disorders that cause tooth discoloration in apparently healthy teeth are the aseptic pulp necrosis and calcific metamorphosis of the pulp, both only induced by dental trauma; 5) the concussion dental trauma still requires many clinical and laboratory studies with pertinent experimental models, to increasingly explain its effects on the periodontal and pulp tissues.
