early medieval english in nineteenthcentury europe the transnational reception of old english in the age of romantic nationalism

this project adds an essential decentralizing dynamic to the historiography of old english studies by studying the reception of early medieval english in 19thcentury continental europe and going beyond an angloamerican focusmany current linguistic theories modes of literary criticism and editorial and pedagogical practices have their roots in the 19th century investigating this legacy helps to better understand paradigms and institutions that still influence the field today recent researchers typically link 19thcentury engagements with old english to a desire to historically underpin a patriotic sense of englishness or the perceived racial superiority of white americans problematically this angloamerican lens overlooks an important transnational dimension the reception of old english in continental europein the 19th century old english poems were claimed as cultural heritage by various nonanglophone nations including the danes the germans and the dutch these competing nationalistic cultural appropriations happened against the backdrop of a growing interest in old english language and literature across the european continent exploring this transnational reception of old english offers a new perspective on the 19thcentury foundations of old english studies and thus contributes to ongoing discussions about the fields past present and future in terms of diversity and visibilitythis project will identify and analyse interactions with old english across europe to explore how a more geographically diverse genealogy of the field affects our perception of the 19th century as a foundational period for the study of old english the project situated on the intersection of history of humanities and medievalism studies is powered by a bibliographical and relational database and a multidisciplinary multilingual approach it will reveal new insightful materials uncover intellectual networks and put forgotten protagonists in the limelight
european marginals in mediterranean africa race space and environment in tunisia and libya 18811950s

this research project proposes a transimperial historical analysis of the agency ecology and representations of european subalterns in tunisia and libya during the colonial period the presence of marginalised europeans mainly from southern europe in tunisian and libyan societies challenged the dichotomy dividing the colonisers from the colonised this colonial liminality is the fulcrum of the project european marginals in mediterranean africa race space and environment in tunisia and libya 18811950s emma the chronological analysis framework spans the french occupation of tunis in 1881 to the end of colonial rule in libya 1951 and tunisia 1956 the aim is to analyse the intermediate and ambiguous position of these subalterns to show not only the slippery boundaries of a whitenonwhite and europeannorth african identity in a mediterranean colonial context but also how entangled these identities are with social political and ecological frontiers and perceptions this goal will be achieved by an interdisciplinary approach that encompasses cognate field of social sciences as history and anthropology for this reason the project is under the joint supervision of professor francesca biancani mena area scholar from unibo specialist on gender and colonial north african history and professor naor ben yehoyada social and cultural anthropologist at cu specialist on mediterranean mobility this interdisciplinary project is based on multiarchival research encompassing sources from colonial national and private archives and journals press and publications in tunisia italy france united kingdom malta it consists in 7 work packages dedicated to training management research dissemination and communication activities
plasticity of nuclear cycling in response to the environment

the traditional view of proliferation in eukaryotic cells maintains that genome duplication is followed by cellular division into two new daughter cells each containing its own nucleus organisms have evolved diverse strategies to accomplish this feat efficiently whilst acted upon by different selection pressures some of which alter the mode of proliferation altogether strikingly several organisms across the tree of life have evolved to utilize the multiplication of genetic material without the generation of new daughter cells as a successful replicative strategy although the nuclei reside in a shared cytoplasm the dynamics of the nuclear cycles of multinucleate cells vary across organisms from synchronicity such as in the drosophila embryo to asynchronous replication as in the filamentous fungi ashbya gossypii while the fast synchronized divisions in developing drosophila embryos are hypothesized to benefit growth speeds asynchronous divisions are hypothesized to balance replication speed with resource availability while it is evident that the efficient use of resources for regulating the cell cycle control network is fundamental for survival and adaptation to the environment the factors and molecular mechanisms regulating autonomous nuclear cycles in multinucleate cells are largely unknown using a combination of multiplexed spatial transcriptomics classic cell biology approaches highresolution imaging and molecular genetics the proposed project will elucidate the extent to which the environment influences nuclear cycling in two evolutionarily distant eukaryotes the freeliving slime mold physarum polycephalum and the intracellular parasite plasmodium falciparum
forest vulnerability to compound extremes and disturbances in a changing climate

forests play a crucial role not only in providing breathable oxygen supporting biodiversity and regulating water and energy exchanges but also in mitigating climate change currently forests absorb 25 of human co2 emissions but their sequestration potential may be negated by more frequent and intense weather extremes and disturbances in the future megadroughts massive wildfires and widespread tree mortality reported in the last decade might be early warnings of the upcoming threats to forests under climate change yet processunderstanding about the interactions between climate forests and key disturbances is limited consequently impacts of compound extremes and disturbances on forest co2 sequestration potential are not yet realistically simulated in future climate projections by earth system modelsto overcome this knowledge gap forexd proposes a crossdisciplinary conceptual framework placing disturbances as intrinsic components of coupled ecoclimatic variability we will apply novel high spatiotemporal resolution remotesensing data to reconstruct disturbance histories and explore emerging analytical tools to gain understanding about the interactions between climate forests and disturbances we will then develop mechanistic models of forestdisturbance interactions which will allow simulating for the first time compound extremes and disturbances fires droughts insects storms and impacts in a stateoftheart landsurface model the project will build on the pis expertise on ecological monitoring and modelling and strong crossdisciplinary background on ecoclimatology and biogeochemistry to develop a systemic understanding of interactions between climate forests and disturbances forexd will provide fundamental knowledge about forest dynamics and feedbacks between climate and the carboncycle in doing so forexd will make a vital contribution to resolve longstanding uncertainties about forests climate change mitigation potential

objects spaces and material culture gender and politics in early modern european republics venice genova xvxviii centuries

to this day and even in europe gender balance in decisionmaking remains a goal to be achieved this condition has historical roots and the power of informal leadership still remains to be investigated furtherthe predominantly male european republics of the modern age were careful to mark gender boundaries excluding women from the direct exercising of power in republican contexts unlike queens princesses and duchesses the consorts of the men in power did not have the privilege of providing the heir to the throne so traditional historiography has generally considered their role to be very marginal if not entirely irrelevant the aim of the project is to challenge this established idea using new sources and an innovative interdisciplinary methodological approach considering from a comparative perspective two italian republics that maintained their independence until the end of the 18th century venice genoa the investigation will examine the prominence of the doges wives and female relatives the creation and use of gendered spaces the purchase and placement of furnishings in public and private apartments and the display strategies pursued particular attention will be given to clothing jewellery and objects in contact with the body alongside written sources iconographic sources and objects preserved in museums will be analysed taking into account the sensory dimension and the threedimensionality of things the aim is to go beyond the limits of written sources and traditional historiography focusing on material culture in order to reevaluate the identity and role of women in republican political contexts to define their sphere of influence and agency to grasp their attempts to negotiate power and their strategies to promote private and public interests and to bring to light their contribution to the still open path towards gender equality

human subject research and medical ethics in colonial southeast asia

this project is a comparative study of human subject research in colonial southeast asia in the period 18901962 while the most infamous instances of medical scientists conducting unethical experiments on human beings took place in nazi germany and the united states advances in medicine more broadly relied on research on nonconsenting human subjects often in colonial contexts doctors in the dutch british and american colonies in southeast asia too did medical experiments that discounted the wellbeing of their research subjects but the region also has some of the earliest examples of informed consent this project will be the first to study these practicesthe key objective of the project is to define and explain the different ethical practices in human subject research in colonial southeast asia to achieve that objective the project aims 1 to understand the nature and reveal the scope of human subject research in southeast asia and 2 to conceptualize the ethical regimes in the colonies in order to explain differences between ethical decisions of doctors in diverse sociocultural settings to bring these issues into the present the project also 3 examines the afterlife of colonial medicine in the postcolonial world to explore how the legacy of medical research could be used ethically today the projects hypothesis is that the changing context of colonial politics research infrastructure religious beliefs professional tacit codes what i call the ethical regime together with local circumstances explain these changesthe project has a novel anthropologically grounded approach and a threeway comparative method that includes comparisons between the dutch east indies british malaya and the american philippines and between colonies and their metropoles but also traces change over time as such we aspire to gain insight in why human subject research has become unethical in some circumstances and less so in others
