Quarantine Pests for Europe

by Mark Holderness, Edited by D G McNamara, I M Smith, Peter R Scott.

Data sheets on quarantine pests for the European Union and for the European and Mediterranean Plant Protection Organization. This book is the result of collaboration between EPPO and CAB INTERNATIONAL, sponsored by the Commission of the European Union, to prepare data sheets on pests of plants of quarantine significance for Europe and the Mediterranean region. Coverage extends to insects, mites, fungi, bacteria, viruses, nematodes and parasitic plants. It includes organisms that are found outside Europe and the Mediterranean that present a risk to this region, as well as those that are present but have restricted distribution and are subject to phytosanitary controls. The format of the FAO model data sheet is followed, using standard headings: identity, hosts, geographical distribution, biology, detection and identification, means of movement and dispersal, pest significance (including economic impact, control and phytosanitary risk), phytosanitary measures, and bibliography. The first edition of this book was published in December 1992 and consisted of 188 data sheets, some covering groups of similar organisms. During the intervening four years pests have been added to the EU and EPPO lists and changes have occurred in host range, geographical distribution, taxonomy and pest status of many of the organisms described. All data sheets have therefore been revised, some data sheets covering groups of similar organisms have been split up and 56 new sheets added, resulting in a total of 300 data sheets. The second edition will continue therefore to represent a definitive reference source, not only for those with specific interests in plant quarantine, but also for all concerned with pest management.

The fall and rise of the English upper class

Houses, kinship and capital since 1945

by Daniel R. Smith

The fall and rise of the English upper class explores the role traditionalist worldviews, articulated by members of the historic upper-class, have played in British society in the shadow of her imperial and economic decline in the twentieth century. Situating these traditionalist visions alongside Britain's post-Brexit fantasies of global economic resurgence and a socio-cultural return to a green and pleasant land, Smith examines Britain's Establishment institutions, the estates of her landed gentry and aristocracy, through to an appetite for nostalgic products represented with pastoral or pre-modern symbolism. It is demonstrated that these institutions and pursuits play a central role in situating social, cultural and political belonging. Crucially these institutions and pursuits rely upon a form of membership which is grounded in a kinship idiom centred upon inheritance and descent: who inherits the houses of privilege, inherits England.

Eine fulminant bebilderte Geschichte darüber, seine Bestimmung im Leben zu erkennen – bunt, exotisch und voller Poesie.

Roland Barthes

Die Biographie

by Tiphaine Samoyault, Lis Künzli, Maria Hoffmann-Dartevelle

Roland Barthes hat die Welt in der zweiten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts das Lesen gelehrt. Er hat vorgeführt, wie die alltäglichen Dinge, die Mythen des Alltags, zu verstehen sind; er hat das Alphabet der Sprache der Liebe vorbuchstabiert; er hat die Lust am Text propagiert; er hat die Stellung des Autors untergraben − und in seinem letzten Seminar, der »Vorbereitung des Romans«, gestanden, er hätte sich gewünscht, Romancier zu werden. 1915 in Cherbourg geboren, geht er in den Dreißiger Jahren zum Studium nach Paris. Hier sammelt er erst politische Erfahrung, entdeckt die Freundschaft und seine Homosexualität − und am Ende des Jahrzehnts befällt ihn eine Tuberkulose, die in ihn zu langjährigen Sanatoriumsaufenthalten zwingt. Dieser Abbruch einer normalen akademischen Karriere erklärt das späte Erscheinen seines Buches, Am »Nullpunkt der Literatur« (1957) und ist zugleich verantwortlich für seine Schreib- und Forscherhaltung: die überkommenen unverrückbaren universitären Wahrheiten enthüllt er als eine Form des Nicht-Wissens, an deren Stelle er eine neue Wissensform entfaltet. Die Schriftstellerin und Literaturhistorikerin Tiphaine Samoyault entwirft unter Rückgriff auf bisher unzugängliche persönliche Dokumente von Roland Barthes die erste umfassende, alle Aspekte von Werk und Leben ausleuchtende, Biographie. Als Wissenschaftlerin und Literatin liest sie die Person Roland Barthes und dessen Schreiben - und damit die Bedeutung dieses Autors für unsere Zeit.

A concordance to the rhymes of The Faerie Queene

by Richard Brown, J. B. Lethbridge, J. B. Lethbridge

This book is the first ever concordance to the rhymes of Spenser's epic. It gives the reader unparalleled access to the formal nuts and bolts of this massive poem: the rhymes which he used to structure its intricate stanzas. As well as the main concordance to the rhymes, the volume features a wealth of ancillary materials, which will be of value to both professional Spenserians and students, including distribution lists and an alphabetical listing of all the words in The Faerie Queene. The volume breaks new ground by including two studies by Richard Danson Brown and J. B. Lethbridge, so that the reader is given provocative analyses alongside the raw data about Spenser as a rhymer. Brown considers the reception of rhyme, theoretical models and how Spenser's rhymes may be reading for meaning. Lethbridge in contrast discusses the formulaic and rhetorical character of the rhymes. ;

On trial

Testing new drugs in psychiatry, 1940–1980

by Marietta Meier, Magaly Tornay, Mario König

The heroic story of the invention of antidepressants is a key part of the psychopharmaceutical turn. On Trial revolves around one of its pioneers, psychiatrist Roland Kuhn, who practiced in Münsterlingen, a state-run psychiatric hospital in Switzerland. Kuhn became famous for the 'discovery' of the first antidepressant, Tofranil, and more recently notorious for his numerous trials on often unsuspecting patients. Largely based on the extensive and previously inaccessible sources of Kuhn's private archive, the book delves into the early days of industry-sponsored clinical research in psychiatry. It examines how the clinic, patients, doctors, nursing staff, corporations, and authorities interacted in the trials. Conducted from the 1940s to 1980s, the Münsterlingen drug trials are historicised and situated in the period's evolving landscape of experimentation.

The Duchess of Malfi

By John Webster

by John Brown, David Bevington, John Brown, Richard Dutton, Alison Findlay, Helen Ostovich

More widely studied and more frequently performed than ever before, John Webster's The Duchess of Malfi is here presented in an improved, accessible and throughly up-to-date edition. Starting with the authoritative Revels Plays edition of 1964, John Russell Brown has augmented the notes and collations, and casts new light on Webster's dramatic dialogue and on the stage action. An entirely new introduction encompasses a stage history from its well-documented early performances right through to recent productions in the twenty first century. The bibliography has also been expanded. Students, actors, directors, academics and theatre-goers will find here a reappraisal of Webster's artistry in the greatest age of English theatre. ;
