The Fifty-Fifth Session of the UN Commission on Human Rights
Authors: Dennis Michael J. 
Published: April 2006

The fifty-fifth session of the United Nations Commission on Human Rights took place in Geneva from March 22 to April 30, 1999, and was chaired by Ambassador Anne Anderson of Ireland. The Commission reviewed the state of human rights and fundamental freedoms in the world, adopting eighty-two resolutions, fifty-eight by consensus, and thirteen decisions.More than thirty-two hundred participants represented fifty-three member and ninety-one observer states, over two hundred nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), and some fiftyfive specialized agencies and other organizations. Secretary-General Kofi Annan underscored the priority he attaches to human rights by stating that “the promodon and defense of human rights is at the heart of every aspect of our work and every article of our Charter. ”
Domenico di Leonardo Buoninsegni's Istoria Fiorentina
Authors: Molho Anthony 
Published: April 2006

Domenico di Leonardo Buoninsegni's Istoria Fiorentina has served numerous historians of Renaissance Florence as a source for the political events which occurred in that city in the Trecento and Quattrocento. Being a narration of Florentine history from the Creation to the autumn of 1460 it has provided modern scholars with numerous details which, seemingly, offered fresh and original insights into the evolution of Florentine history, particularly for the later portion of the Istoria in which the events described coincided with the life of the author himself (b. 1384—d. 1465).Unfortunately, since its first partial publication by Giorgio Marescotti in 1580 (reissued in 1581), Buoninsegni's Istoria has been subject to a series of misunderstandings and misinterpretations on one of which, ironically, has rested its reputation among scholars.
Milton's Eve and the Neoplatonic Graces
Authors: Boyette Purvis E. 
Published: April 2006

Some of Milton's classical allusions are stylistically supplemental, but more often than not they function with illuminating homology. Milton's description of Eve as Queen of the Graces is one example of what might appear a passing simple detail:With Goddess-like demeanor forth she went; Not unattended, for on her as Queen A pomp of winning Graces waited still.But on closer reading, one discovers that the allusion embraces large themes, especially when seen through the lenses of Neoplatonism. It is altogether apposite that Ficino regarded Venus, the symbol of love, as the mediatrix between God and man: ‘love is the perpetual knot and link of the universe: amor nodus perpetuus, et copula mundi.’ Following the precedent in Spenser of linking the Graces with flowers, the symbol of fruition, Milton identified the three Graces in L'Allegro (11-16) as the daughters of Venus.
George Joye's Exposicion of Daniel*
Authors: Pineas Rainer 
Published: April 2006

During the Tudor period, Protestant Reformers tended to rely heavily on the Scriptures as a weapon against their Catholic opponents, since they believed that the Scriptures were the ultimate authority for Christian doctrine and conduct. The work of the most important of these, William Tyndale, has already been treated, and it is therefore the intention of this paper to examine the contribution made by one of Tyndale's contemporaries, George Joye.Joye fled to the continent toward the end of 1527 and between 1529 and 1549 produced a large number of polemical works, among them biblical translations and commentary. It is on this latter aspect of Joye's achievement that the present study intends to focus, specifically on his The exposicion of Daniel the Prophete (1545).
Art, Culture, and Mentality in Renaissance Society: The Meaning of Hans Baldung Grien's Bewitched Groom (1544)
Authors: Hoak Dale 
Published: April 2006

For the study of early modern society, Renaissance art often provides an extraordinary means of exploring visually the values and assumptions, attitudes, and modes of perception of those who inhabited, mentally and materially, the world of traditional, preindustrial Europe. The work of Hans Baldung dit Grien (1484/85-1545), a Swabian painter, illustrator, and designer of stained glass, illuminates one of the most familiar and yet least understood aspects of this world, the mentality of those who believed that some women were capable of influencing a man's sexual nature by means of witchcraft.In a series of prints and drawings executed between 1510 and 1544, Baldung portrayed various aspects of the alleged activities of witches. As contributions to the iconography of witchcraft, these Hexenbilder were without artistic precedent.
The Crisis of the Aristocracy inJulius Caesar*
Authors: Rebhorn Wayne A. 
Published: April 2006

"The purpose of playing… is to hold, as 't were, the mirror up to nature, to show virtue her feature, scorn her own image, and the very age and body of the time his form and pressure" (Hamlet, 3.2.20-24).In his hagiographic treatment of the life of Sir Philip Sidney, Fulke Greville presents the last events in his hero's existence as constituting a particularly exemplary "tragedy"; he celebrates Sidney's generosity towards a common soldier in need of water, his endurance in suffering pain, and his careful "fashioning" of his soul to meet death when the end appeared inevitable.
Recent Trends in Montaigne Scholarship: A Post-Structuralist Perspective
Authors: Regosin Richard L. 
Published: April 2006

Montaigne scholarship has traditionally drawn its impetus from the identification of life and work and its sense of the overwhelming presence of Montaigne as the subject of his text. Bolstered by the essayist's own protestations of sincerity, of good faith and mutual trust between writer and reader, scholars have read the first-person discourse as affirming the truth of the “I” inside the writing and its unequivocal coincidence with its historical referent. The authorial voice announcing itself as self-portraiture, bearing its own name, has been taken to represent the man, his character and ideas, and to reflect the broader sixteenth-century intellectual and social context.This long-standing reading practice, with its conviction of mimesis, has undoubtedly achieved useful biographical and historical results. Scholars interested in the evolution of Montaigne's thought have shed light on his mode of composition through textual accretion by studying the successive additions and emendations which are identified as strata in the body of the work: A(1580, 1582), B(1588), C(after 1588).
Approaching the Altar: Donatello's Sculpture in the Santo*
Authors: Johnson Geraldine A. 
Published: April 2006

AbstractDonatello designed a lavish high altar for the Santo (S. Antonio) in Padua in the 1440s. This article considers how the interests and concerns of the altar's original beholders may have affected its design and reception. Specifically, pilgrims drawn to the Santo by Saint Anthony's tomb probably would have been impressed by the altar's general magnificence; elite Paduan citizens may have been most interested in the civic associations of the statues displayed on the altar; and the Santos Conventual Franciscan friars may well have interpreted the Antonine narrative reliefs and the altar's overall splendor in light of their growing rivalry with Observant Franciscans.
Adsorption and rheological properties of biopolymers at the air‐water interface
Authors: Baeza Rosa , Pilosof Ana M. R. , Sanchez Cecilio Carrera , Rodríguez Patino Juan M. 
Published: April 2006

AbstractDynamics of adsorption and viscoelasticity of biopolymers (β‐lactoglobulin (β‐lg) + polysaccharides (PS)) at 20 °C and pH 7 have been studied. Protein concentration in the bulk phase was 0.1 wt %, and the concentration of polysaccharides (xanthan gum, λ‐carrageenan, and propylenglicol alginate with different degrees of esterification and viscosity) was varied from 0.1% to 0.5 wt %. The results reveal a significant effect of surface‐active and non surface‐active polysaccharides on the dynamics of the formation and viscoelasticity of adsorbed films at the air‐water interface. The rate of diffusion of the biopolymers increased in the mixed systems, but the effect was more significant at the highest concentration of polysaccharide (0.5 wt %). The rate of rearrangement of the adsorbed films decreased in the presence of polysaccharides as compared to the protein film. Competitive adsorption, complexation and limited thermodynamic incompatibility between β‐lactoglobulin and polysaccharide would explain the observed effects. © 2006 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 2006
Modeling of mass transfer in combination with a homogeneously catalyzed reaction
Authors: Hoorn J. A. A. , Versteeg G. F. 
Published: April 2006

AbstractThe mass transfer rates of a gaseous reactant into a liquid where the reactions are catalyzed by homogeneous catalysts have been evaluated by the numerical solution of the diffusion‐reaction equations according to Higbie's penetration theory. The concentration profiles as well as enhancement factors are discussed as functions of the kinetic rate constants and the diffusion coefficients of the catalytic intermediates. In addition to the complex catalytic model, two simplified models were applied in order to facilitate design calculations. One version was obtained by application of the Bodenstein approximation; the simplest version comprised only the stoichiometric reaction. The Bodenstein model provides a very good approximation except for deviating diffusion coefficients of the catalytic intermediates. The applicability of the stoichiometric model is not as wide as with the Bodenstein model, but for some conditions acceptable approximations are achieved. © 2006 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 2006
Polymorphisms in the vitamin D receptor and their associations with risk of schizophrenia and selected anthropometric measures
Authors: Handoko H.Y. , Nancarrow D.J. , Mowry B.J. , McGrath J.J. 
Published: April 2006

AbstractThe association between vitamin D levels and skeletal growth has long been recognized. However, exposure to low levels of vitamin D during early life is also known to alter brain development, and is a candidate risk factor for schizophrenia. This study examines the association between four polymorphisms in the vitamin D receptor (VDR) and 1) risk of schizophrenia, and 2) three anthropometric variables (height, head size, and head shape). Four single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs; rs10735810/FokI, rs1544410/BsmI, rs7975232/ApaI, and rs731236/TaqI) in the VDR gene were genotyped in 179 individuals with schizophrenia and 189 healthy controls. No significant associations were detected between any of the four VDR SNPs and risk of schizophrenia. Patients were slightly but significantly shorter compared to controls. Of the four SNPs, only rs10735810/FokI was associated with any of the anthropometric measures: the M4 isoform of this SNP was significantly associated with larger head size (P = 0.002). In light of the evidence demonstrating a role for vitamin D during brain development, the association between polymorphisms in VDR and brain development warrants closer scrutiny. Am. J. Hum.

AbstractObjectiveNoninvasive brain imaging tests can potentially supplement or even replace the use of intracranial electroencephalogram (ICEEG), an invasive, costly procedure used in presurgical epilepsy evaluation. This study prospectively examined the agreement between magnetic source imaging (MSI) and ICEEG localization in epilepsy surgery candidates.MethodsPatients completing video monitoring with scalp EEG who had intractable partial epilepsy based on ictal electro‐clinico‐anatomical features were screened. Forty‐nine enrolled patients (mean age, 27 years; range, 1–61 years) completed MSI and ICEEG studies. Decisions about ICEEG and surgery were made at a consensus conference where MSI could only influence ICEEG coverage by indicating supplemental coverage to that already planned by an original hypothesis.ResultsThe positive predictive value of MSI for seizure localization was 82 to 90%, depending on whether computed against ICEEG alone or in combination with surgical outcome. The kappa score of agreement for MSI with ICEEG was 0.2744 (p < 0.01)InterpretationMSI yields localizing information with a high positive predictive value in epilepsy surgery candidates who typically require ICEEG. This finding suggests that enough clinical validity exists for MSI to potentially replace ICEEG for seizure localization. Ann Neurol 2006;59:835–842
Reaktionen bei sehr tiefen Temperaturen: Gaskinetik in einem neuen Bereich
Authors: Smith Ian W. M. 
Published: April 2006

AbstractDank Fortschritten bei den experimentellen Techniken, insbesondere der Entwicklung von CRESU (Cinétique de Réaction en Ecoulement Supersonique Uniforme), können mittlerweile viele molekulare Gasphasenprozesse bei sehr tiefen Temperaturen studiert werden. Dieser Aufsatz beschäftigt sich mit Reaktionen von Molekül‐ und Atomradikalen mit neutralen Molekülen. Mithilfe der CRESU‐Methode wurden bereits Geschwindigkeitskonstanten für fast 50 Reaktionen bei Temperaturen bis 13 K gemessen. Die überraschende Schnelligkeit vieler Reaktionen zwischen elektrisch neutralen Spezies bei diesen tiefen Temperaturen liefert Anhaltspunkte für das Verständnis der Chemie der etwa 135 Molekülarten, die in interstellaren Wolken identifiziert wurden. Die theoretische Behandlung dieser Reaktionen beruht auf der Vorstellung, dass eine Reaktion stattfindet, wenn das langreichweitige Potential zwischen den Reaktanten diese in engen Kontakt bringt. Die astrochemischen Zusammenhänge, die theoretischen Ansätze und die Abschätzung von Geschwindigkeitskonstanten für diese Reaktionen werden diskutiert.
