The Body
Authors: Thonemann Peter 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
This chapter focuses on Oneirocritica Book 1, which is largely dedicated to the human body and body-symbolism, and examines the ways in which Artemidorus’ conception of the body and its functions might be historically and culturally distinctive. Artemidorus offers us a remarkably detailed and coherent ‘tour’ of the symbolic meanings of the constituent parts of the male and female body, based around a series of polarities (upper and lower, right and left, front and back), which reflect three different dimensions of the social order (status, age, gender). The ways in which bodies are gendered (firmness, dryness, vigour) in Artemidorus’ body-symbolism are discussed in detail, and the extraordinary over-signification of the male penis and under-signification of the female vagina in Artemidorus’ classificatory system are highlighted. The chapter concludes with an extended discussion of the presentation of physical and mental disability in the Oneirocritica.
Sexuality and Gender
Authors: Thonemann Peter 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
The Oneirocritica is a remarkably rich source of evidence for Graeco-Roman ideas about gender relations and male and female sexuality. For Artemidorus, as Foucault recognized, the key to the symbolic meaning of a sex-act in a dream is not the biological sex of the participants, but their relative social status. This chapter deals with Artemidorus’ classification of sex-dreams (varieties of sexual intercourse which are considered to be ‘in accordance with’ or ‘contrary to’ law and/or nature), as well as the symbolic significance of different sexual acts and positions; it is argued that Artemidorus’ sexual ethics are more strongly heteronormative than they have often been considered in previous scholarship. This chapter also explores the marginalization of women’s dreams (and female sexuality) in the Oneirocritica, as well as Artemidorus’ implicit and explicit assumptions about gender relations and female social and sexual roles.
Books and Literary Culture
Authors: Thonemann Peter 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
Quotations from earlier Greek literary works are very frequent in the Oneirocritica, and it is possible to reconstruct in some detail Artemidorus’ knowledge of (and tastes in) ‘classical’ Greek literature. As one might expect, Homer is particularly prominent, but in a manner that suggests that Artemidorus may not have been equally acquainted with all parts of the Iliad and Odyssey. His knowledge of early Greek poetry, tragedy, and comedy, and other ‘high’ Greek literature appears at first sight to be impressively extensive, but patterns of quotation in the Oneirocritica imply that he in fact knew little of this literature at first-hand. It is suggested that Artemidorus provides us with an unusually clear and representative picture of the intellectual and literary horizons of an ordinary ‘middling’ member of the civic elite in the Greek world during the high Roman imperial period.
Status and Values
Authors: Thonemann Peter 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
Artemidoran dream-symbolism is pervaded by status-distinctions: the same dream means different things depending on whether it is dreamed by a slave, a freedman, a poor man, a rich man, a slave-owner, and so on. As this chapter demonstrates, the Oneirocritica is one of our key sources for class dynamics and status-assumptions in Graeco-Roman society, and potentially provides us with rare access into the mindsets and aspirations of subaltern groups in the Greek East, including slaves and the labouring poor. The ideology of work and leisure in the Oneirocritica is explored in particular depth.
Priests of the Law
Authors: McSweeney Thomas J. 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
Priests of the Law tells the story of the first people in the history of the common law to think of themselves as legal professionals: the group of justices who wrote the celebrated treatise known as Bracton. It offers a new interpretation of Bracton and its authors. Bracton was not so much an attempt to explain or reform the early common law as it was an attempt to establish the status and authority of the king’s justices. The justices who wrote it were some of the first people to work full-time in England’s royal courts, at a time when they had no obvious model for the legal professional. They found one in an unexpected place: the Roman-law tradition that was sweeping across Europe in the thirteenth century. They modeled themselves on the jurists of Roman law who were teaching in Italy and France. In Bracton and other texts they produced, the justices of the royal courts worked hard to establish that the nascent common-law tradition was just one constituent part of the Roman-law tradition. Through their writing, this small group of people, working in the courts of an island realm, imagined themselves to be part of a broader European legal culture. They made the case that they were not merely servants of the king. They were priests of the law.
The Emotions of Internationalism
Authors: Scaglia Ilaria 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
By examining a broad range of individuals and institutions engaged in international cooperation in the Alps in the 1920s and 1930s, this book explains how internationalists constructed and used emotions to attain their goals. It undertakes a journey through the most diverse terrains and venues, from the international art exhibitions and congresses organized by the Union Internationale des Associations d’Alpinisme (also known as UIAA, or the International Mountaineering and Climbing Federation), to the summer camps and schools run by transnational bodies such as the League for Open-Air Education, to the international sanatoria for students, workers, and soldiers healing from tuberculosis in the Swiss village of Leysin. Along the way, this study encounters a broad spectrum of state and non-state actors involved a variety of cross-border endeavors, from large-scale infrastructure projects akin to the tunnel under the Mont Cenis, to the League of Nations and its propaganda efforts, to the plethora of smaller international organizations emulating the League’s work in fields as diverse as leisure, health, and education. Through this metaphorical travel, this book thus argues that starting from the nineteenth century and accelerating in the interwar years emotions became a fundamental feature of internationalism, shaped its development, and constitute an essential dimension of international history to this day.
A Deliberative Model of Intra-Party Democracy
Authors: Wolkenstein Fabio 
Published: January 2020

AbstractThis chapter aims to answer the question of how exactly internally democratic parties should look, developing a ‘deliberative model of intra-party democracy’. The main justification of such a model is first, that deliberation can cater better to the demand for political self-expression many citizens share than merely aggregative democratic practices, and second, that deliberation can perform an important critical function within parties, allowing the status quo to be questioned and transformed. The challenge is to devise mechanisms and institutions that can enhance deliberation within parties, and the chapter looks here to the more practice-oriented literature on deliberative democracy and democratic innovations for inspiration. As an instantiation of bottom-up democracy, it is suggested, a deliberative model of intra-party democracy must empower the active members on the ground and offer numerous fora in which they can make their voices heard and bring them to bear on decisions. Chief amongst the institutional design paths suggested are problem-oriented fora, partisan deliberative networks, and larger deliberative conferences. These proposals are discussed in turn, and empirical illustrations of how they could be realised are provided.
Conclusion
Authors: Wolkenstein Fabio 
Published: January 2020

AbstractThis chapter concludes the book. It summarizes the arguments advanced in the book and reflects on three challenges facing the book’s argument: that parties are ultimately unreformable; that the institutional proposals put forward are too vague to be useful for practitioners; and that re-modelling parties with only the participatory preferences of those who seek self-expression and self-actualization in politics in mind risks excluding those who do not hold such ‘post-modern’ participatory preferences. Each of these concerns is warranted and taken seriously but, as the chapter shows, none of them is fatal to the broader argument of the book.
The nouveau roman and Writing in Britain After Modernism
Authors: Guy Adam 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
This book shows the centrality of the nouveau roman to the literary culture of postwar Britain. Emerging in the mid–late 1950s in France, the nouveau roman grouped together a range of writers committed to innovation in the novel, such as Michel Butor, Marguerite Duras, Robert Pinget, Alain Robbe-Grillet, Nathalie Sarraute, and Claude Simon. Transferred to a different national context, the nouveau roman became a focal point for debates in Britain about realism, modernism, and the end of empire. The nouveau roman and the Novel in Britain After Modernism draws on extensive research into archival and periodical sources in order to tell the story of the nouveau roman’s dissemination and reception in Britain. It also looks at postwar writers working in Britain so as to gauge the impact of the nouveau roman in novels of the 1960s and 1970s. Whether in translations of Nathalie Sarraute’s writing by Maria Jolas (one of the founders of the interwar little magazine transition), or in the conservative critiques of the nouveau roman levelled by the circle around C. P. Snow, the question of the legacies of European high modernism is always in view. But equally, for writers like Brian W. Aldiss, Christine Brooke-Rose, Eva Figes, B. S. Johnson, Alan Sheridan, Muriel Spark, and Denis Williams, the nouveau roman also provided the source of aesthetic innovations that could exceed the modernist account of the new. This book uncovers a neglected history of the postwar British literary field, with continuing relevance for contemporary innovative writing.
Rights, Wrongs, and Injustices
Authors: Smith Stephen A. 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
Rights, Wrongs, and Injustices is the first comprehensive account of remedial law’s scope, foundations, and structure. A remedy, it argues, is a judicial ruling, and remedial law is the body of rules governing the availability and content of remedies. Focusing on rulings that are intended to resolve private law disputes (e.g. awards of damages, injunctions, and restitutionary orders), this book explains why remedial law is distinctive, how it relates to substantive law, and what its foundational principles are. Drawing on doctrinal, historical, and philosophical sources, it advances four main arguments. First, the question of what courts should do when individuals seek their assistance (the focus of remedial law) is different from the question of how individuals should treat one another in their day-to-day lives (the focus of substantive law). Second, remedies provide distinctive reasons to perform the actions they command; in particular, they provide reasons different from those provided by either rules or sanctions. Third, remedial law has a complex relationship to substantive law. Some remedies are responses to rights-threats, others to wrongs, and yet others to injustices. Further, remedies respond to these events in different ways: while some remedies replicate substantive duties, others modify duties or create entirely new duties. Finally, remedial law is underpinned by general principles—principles that cut across the traditional distinctions between so-called ‘legal’ and ‘equitable’ remedies. Together, these arguments provide the foundation for an understanding of remedial law that takes the concept of a remedy seriously, classifies remedies according to their grounds and content, illuminates the relationship between remedies and substantive rights, and explains remedial law in terms of general principles, not historical categories.
Introduction
Authors: Aronson Amy 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
Crystal Eastman drafted America’s first serious workers’ compensation law. She helped found the National Woman’s Party and is credited as coauthor of the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA). She helped found the Woman’s Peace Party—today, the Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom (WILPF)—and the American Union against Militarism. She copublished the Liberator magazine. And she engineered the founding the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). Yet today, her legacy is ambiguous. She is commemorated, paradoxically, as one of the most neglected feminist leaders in American history. Why? Eastman was an intersectional thinker and activist, who bridged social movements, linking shared experiences of inequality under one emancipatory rubric. Yet politics and interpersonal alliances kept asking her to choose: one issue, one organization, one primary identification. Expansive, straddling, disquieting to dominant perspectives and institutional rank, Eastman fell through the main planks of historical memory.
Discovering Crystal
Authors: Aronson Amy 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
Crystal Eastman entered Vassar’s class of 1903, rooming with Lucy Burns, later the chief lobbyist of the National Woman’s Party. She then attended Columbia University, studying with John Bates Clark and Franklin Henry Giddings and earning a master’s degree in sociology in 1904. After a year teaching high school, she entered New York University Law School in the fall of 1905, finishing her doctor of law in 1907, second in her class. Beginning in her law school years, Eastman lived in Greenwich Village, first supporting herself by working as athletics director at the Greenwich House Settlement. In this downtown bohemia, she met Progressive and “New Woman” leaders including Lillian Wald, Florence Kelley, Mary Simkhovitch, Madeleine Doty, and Ida Rauh. She also enticed her brother Max to follow her to Greenwich Village, launching his career as a suffrage lecturer and into the editorship of The Masses, the work that would make his name.
From Protest to Dissent: Wartime Activism and the Founding of the ACLU
Authors: Aronson Amy 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
In June 1917, Congress passed the Espionage Act, suspending basic civil liberties in the name of wartime national security. Suddenly, peace work seemed dangerously untenable, even to some in movement leadership. Nevertheless, the American Union Against Militarism (AUAM) voted to test the new wartime laws, campaigning to prevent a draft and devising a new category of military exemption based on conscience. But continuing tensions threatened to rupture the AUAM from the inside. Lillian Wald and Paul Kellogg wanted to resign. Eastman proposed an eleventh-hour solution: create a single, separate legal bureau for the maintenance of fundamental rights in wartime—free press, free speech, freedom of assembly, and liberty of conscience. The new bureau became the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). However, Eastman’s hopes to shape and oversee that work, keeping it focused on internationalism and global democracy, were not to be. The birth of her child sidelined her while Roger Baldwin, arriving at a critical time for the country and the organization, took charge and made the bureau his own.
Regrouping: The Liberator Years
Authors: Aronson Amy 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
On Lincoln’s Birthday, 1918, Crystal and Max Eastman launched the Liberator: The Journal of Revolutionary Progress. The magazine plainly supported Bolshevism, and also served as watchdog for propaganda and misinformation concerning revolutionary revolts. Eastman’s most important writing was her reporting from inside Communist Hungary in August 1919. However, the lived human experiences of revolution she witnessed put her at odds with the Liberator’s star radical, John Reed, and her brother Max. A pacifist and feminist, as well as a radical, she praised the abolition of private property but deplored the bloodshed and repression under the revolutionary government. The experience brought her to a political impasse. Two elemental goals, once aligned, now appeared to be competing claims: justice or peace? In an era of revolutionary victory, how could she make sense of violence perpetrated to achieve the equality and justice she had long believed was the only recipe for world peace?
“Marriage under Two Roofs”: Feminism and Family Life
Authors: Aronson Amy 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
Crystal Eastman ardently pursued equalitarian feminism but also asserted that feminism must have three parts: politics and public policy; wages and the workplace; and—the distinctive final portion—the private domain of love, marriage, and the family. She believed millions of women like herself experienced acute feminist concerns not merely in the battle for economic opportunity in the workforce, or political representation and voice, but also from conflicts between their desire for the rewards of life beyond the home and for the rewards of family as well. She pursued this missing policy analysis for the rest of her life, advocating birth control in the feminist program, the endowment of motherhood, and feminist child-rearing and education. In unpublished articles, she also explored wages for wives and single motherhood by choice. All the while, Eastman was experimenting with a variety of novel approaches to integrating her feminism in own her marriage and family life.
Immunosuppressive and glucocorticoid therapy for the treatment of ANCA-asssociated vasculitis
Authors: Neumann Irmgard 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV) is a systemic, potentially organ and life threatening chronic autoimmune disease. With current management strategies, such as high-dose glucocorticoids in combination with cyclophosphamide or rituximab, outcomes have progressively improved with overall remission rates of 70–90%. However, relapse rates after discontinuation of therapy are consistently high, and treatment-related toxicity, mainly driven by glucocorticoids, still determines morbidity and quality of life. Prevention of relapses while minimizing adverse events is a major goal of long-term treatment, but the optimal duration of maintenance therapy and the role and utility of glucocorticoids in this context remains controversial. This review of induction and maintenance treatment of AAV aims to offer practical advice on immunosuppressive therapies and patient care, addressing individual risk factors and their therapeutic implications. It will discuss benefits and harms of the use of glucocorticoids, particularly focusing on recent advances in steroid sparing concepts.
INCORPORATING KENAF AND OIL PALM NANOCELLULOSE IN BUILDING MATERIALS FOR INDOOR RADON GAS EMANATION REDUCTION
Authors: Mocktar Farah Aini , Abdul razab Mohammad Khairul Azhar , Mohamed noor An’amt 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
This study aims to reduce radon gas emanations in the indoor environment by incorporating kenaf and oil palm nanocellulose that act as nano-fillers into building materials. Fabrication of composite brick was carried out according to the MS and ASTM standards. In this research, 40, 80, 120, 160 and 200 ml of nanocellulose were used to replace the usage of sand, stone and cement materials, respectively. Kenaf and oil palm nanocellulose were utilised to reduce the internal and surface porosity as well as to replace the radon resources (stone), which indirectly reduced radon gas emanation. Radon gas emanated from each composite brick was measured within 10 consecutive days in an airtight prototype Perspex room using Radon Monitor Sentinel 1030. A compression test was also carried out to investigate the physical strength of the fabricated composite bricks. The results showed that 40 ml of kenaf and oil palm nanocellulose was the optimum amount in reducing the radon concentration, where the radon readings were 1.4 and 0.93 pCi per l, respectively. Meanwhile, the brick with no nanocellulose exhibited the highest radon reading of 3.77 pCi per l. Moreover, the Young modulus for the composite brick of both kenaf and oil palm nanocellulose was 28.92 and 27.8 N per mm2 compared to the control brick, which was 27 N per mm2. The results proved that radon gas emanations were reduced by 62.86% for kenaf and 75.3% for oil palm by incorporating the organic nanocellulose, which has high potential towards a healthy indoor environment.

Published: January 2020

AbstractN6-methyladenosine (m6A) RNA methylation is one of the most abundant modifications on mRNAs and plays an important role in various biological processes. The formation of m6A is catalysed by a methyltransferase complex containing a key factor methyltransferase-like 3 (Mettl3). However, the functions of Mettl3 and m6A modification in liver lipid and glucose metabolism remain unclear. Here, we show that bothMettl3expression and m6A level increased in the liver of mice with High Fat Diet (HFD)-induced metabolic disorders, and overexpression ofMettl3aggravated HFD-induced liver metabolic disorders and insulin resistance. Hepatocyte-specific knockout ofMettl3significantly alleviated HFD-induced metabolic disorders by slowing weight gain, reducing lipid accumulation and improving insulin sensitivity. Mechanistically, Mettl3 depletion-mediated m6A loss causes extended RNA half-lives of metabolism-related genes, consequently protects mice against HFD-induced metabolic syndrome. Our findings reveal a critical role of Mettl3-mediated m6A in HFD-induced metabolic disorders and hepatogenous diabetes.
Wolbachiaaffect behavior and possibly reproductive compatibility but not thermoresistance, fecundity, and morphology in a novel transinfected host,Drosophila nigrosparsa

Published: January 2020

AbstractWolbachia, intracellular endosymbionts, are estimated to infect about half of all arthropod species. These bacteria manipulate their hosts in various ways for their maximum benefits. The rising global temperature may accelerate species migration and, thus, horizontal transfer ofWolbachiamay occur across species previously not in contact. We transinfected and then cured the alpine flyDrosophila nigrosparsawithWolbachiastrainwMel to study its effects on this species. We found lowWolbachiatiter, possibly cytoplasmic incompatibility, and an increase in locomotion of both infected larvae and adults compared with cured ones. However, no change in fecundity, no impact on heat and cold tolerance, and no change in wing morphology were observed. AlthoughWolbachiaincreased locomotor activities in this species, we conclude thatD. nigrosparsamay not benefit from the infection. Still,D. nigrosparsacan serve as a host forWolbachiabecause vertical transmission is possible but may not be as high as in the native host ofwMel,Drosophila melanogaster.
