Abstract:
The thesis will reconsider the thought and design work of the architect William Richard Lethaby (1857–1931). The research will focus upon Lethaby’s affiliation with the occult, with particular reference to alchemy. The relationship between nineteenth- and twentieth-century architects and occultism has been overlooked, and in many cases intentionally neglected, by scholars and historians. Current scholarship in the field has placed a greater emphasis on twentieth-century proponents of the occult. This detailed study on Lethaby and the occult therefore forms an original contribution to existing

Abstract:
Around 20% of patients, diagnosed with a clinically localized primary cutaneous melanoma, have occult lymph node metastases. Lymphatic mapping and sentinel node biopsy, using pre-operative lymphoscintigraphy, intra-operative blue dye injection and gamma probe localization, in most cases identifies the node or nodes most likely to contain occult metastases, if present. The presence or absence of such metastases is the most powerful prognostic indicator in this group of patients. However, a number of other factors related to the patient and the primary melanoma can be used to determine prognosis

My research on Victor Brauner’s work in the first two decades of his affiliation with the Surrealist group in Paris re-establishes the role played by the Romanian Jewish artist in the definition of automatic Surrealist procedures of painting and mixed-technique objects that relied upon a new and unconventional understanding of the occult. In the three chapters of this study of Victor Brauner’s work in the 1930s and early 1940s, I analyse key notions, such as the fantastic, animal magnetism, and the occult practices of art making in a Surrealist context.

Abstract:
This thesis examines how the occult tradition is an inherent part of the production of vernacular literature during the Elizabethan period. I argue that occult discourses about language are drawn upon by writers of the period who seek to establish an English literature to rival that of the classical tradition. The quotidian nature of occult philosophies which vacillate between the scientific and the magical in the early modern period has been recognised in recent criticism. Taking into consideration the etymological root of the word occult as secret or hidden, this thesis departs from the trad

Abstract:
The ability to identify melanoma patients with progressive disease is central to efficient management. The challenge therefore, is to develop prognostic markers and techniques which will allow the identification of those patients whom, at the time of primary tumor diagnosis, already have micrometastases (occult or clinically undetectable metastases). The use of the reverse transcription-PCR (RT-PCR) technique for the detection of circulating melanoma cells (CMCs) is potentially a powerful tool for identifying those patients at risk for developing metastases.
