The Observation
Authors: Ezell Margaret J M 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
No State of Life’s from Troubles free, Grief mixes with our vital Breath: AI;soon as we begin to be, From the first moment of our Birth, We have some tast of Misery: With S[ghs and Tears our Fate we mourn, AI;if our Infant Reason did presage Th’ approaching Ills of our maturer Age, And wish’d a quick Return. When Souls are first to their close Rooms confin’d, 10 Nothing of their Celestial Make is seen, Obscuring Earth does interpose between: Like Tapers hid in Urns they shine. The Life of Sense and Growth we only see, Which Beasts enjoy as well as we: But th’active Mind Which bears the Image of the Pow’r Divine, Cannot exert its Energy:, The streiten’d Intellect immur’d does lie, Shut up within a narrow place, Till Nature does enlarge the Space, And by degrees the Organs fit, For those great Operations which are wrought by it.
On the Death of my Honoured Mother Mrs. Lee: A Dialogue between Lucinda and Marissa
Authors: Ezell Margaret J M

Abstract
Lucinda.What, my Marissa,has Lucindadone, That thus her once lov’d Company you shun? Why is’t from her you thus unkindly fly, From her, who for your Sake cou’d freely die? Who knows no Joy but what your Sight does give, And in your Heart alone desires to live? I beg you by that Zeal I’ve shewn for you, That Tenderness which is to Friendship due, By those dear sacred Bonds our Souls have ty’d, Those Bonds, which Death it self shall ne’er divide; Marissa.Yes, my dear Friend, I your Advice will take, Dry up my Tears, and these lov’d Shades forsake: I can’t resist, when Kindness leads the Way; I’m wholly yours, and must your Call obey: With you to hated Crouds and Noise I’ll go, And the best Proofs of my Affection show: But where soe’er I am, my troubl’d Mind Will still to my Philindabe confin’d; Her Image is upon my Soul imprest, She lives within, and governs in my Breast: I’ll strive to live those Virtues she has taught, They shall employ my Pen, my Tongue, my Thought: Where e’er I go her Name my Theme shall prove, And what soe’er I say, shall loudly speak my Love.
The Offering

Abstract
Accept, my God, the Praises which I bring, The humble Tribute from a Creature due: Permit me of thy Pow’r to sing, That Pow’r which did stupendous Wonders do, And whose Effects we still with awful Rev’rence view: That mighty Pow’r which from thy boundless Store, Out of thy self where all things lay, This beauteous Universe did call, This Great, this Glorious, this amazing All! And fill’d with Matter that vast empty Space, Where nothing all alone Had long unrival’d sat on its triumphant Throne. See! now in every place The restless Atoms play: Lo! high as Heav’n they proudly soar, And fill the wide-stretch’d Regions there; In Suns they shine Above, in Gems Below, And roll in solid Masses thro’ the yielding Air: In Earth compacted, and diffus’d in Seas; In Corn they nourish, and in Flow’rs they please: In Beasts they walk, in Birds they fly, And in gay painted Insects croud the Skie: In Fish amid the Silver Waves they stray, And ev’ry where the Laws of their first Cause obey: Of them, compos’d with wondrous Art, We are our selves a part: And on us still they Nutriment bestow; To us they kindly come, from us they swiftly go, And thro’ our Veins in Purple Torrents flow.

Abstract
Who on thy Holy Hill, my God, shall rest, And be with everlasting Pleasures blest? The Man who blameless is, and still sincere, And who no Judge do’s but his Conscience fear: Whose Practice is a Transcript of thy Law, And whom thy Omnipresence keeps in awe: Who speaks the Truth, and wou’d much sooner die, Than owe his Life to the loath’d Refuge of a Lie. Whose Soul is free from Falshood and Design, And in whose Words Integrity do’s shine: Who scorns to flatter, and by little Arts To purchase Treasures, or inveagle Hearts: Who to his Neighbour has no Mischief done, Do’s spiteful Actions with Abhorrence shun, And cannot be to what’s Inhuman won:

The Greatness of your Birth, the Sublimity of your Station, the vast Extent of your Knowledge, and all those other shining Qualities which have rais’d you to an elevated Height, and given you an undisputed Title to the Respect and Wonder of Mankind; all this stops every Approach to your Royal Highness, and makes you to be view’d only at an awful Distance: But just Reflections on the inviting Sweetness of your Temper, the charming Humility of your Mind, and that condescending Goodness you are pleas’d to express on all Occasions, puts a pleasing Force on all to whom your Fame has reach’d, (and to whom has it not?) powerfully attracts them, and throws your Admirers with a delightful Trem- io bling at your Royal Highness’s Feet; where, together with my self, I beg Leave to lay the following essays.
To The Reader

Abstract
That the Pleasures of the Mind are infinitely preferable to those of Sense, intellectual Delights, the Joys of Thought, and the Complacencies arising from a bright and inlarg’d Understanding, transcendently greater and more satisfactory than those of the Body, than those that owe their Original to the Animal Life, has, through all Ages, been an acknowledg’d Truth, a Truth that comes attended with all the convincing Evidences that can be desired, and will soon be found to be undeniably so by all such as will be at the Pains of making the Experiment.
Of Life
Authors: Ezell Margaret J M 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Would we accustom our selves to speak the strict Language of Truth, to fix Idea’s to our Words, we should not talk so improperly as generally we do, should give Things their true Appellations, call them by their right Names, learn to distinguish between our selves and our Instruments of Action, betwixt immortal Souls and perishing Bodies, betwixt Life and Death, and appropriate each to its proper Subject. We should then know, that to live is essential to a rational Soul; and that when we speak of Dying, we do not understand what we mean. Socrateswas much in the right, when he derided Critofor asking him how he would be buried? What can be more pleasant than to hear him answer, Just as you please, ifyou can but catch me, and if I do not give you the Slip;and then to see him turn to his lamenting Friends, and, smiling, tell them, He fancies thisSocrates, who now discourses with you, is the Thing that shall see Death by and by; he confounds me with my Corps.
Of Self-Love
Authors: Ezell Margaret J M 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
We are born with a strong Desire of being happy; ‘tis a Principle coeval with our Souls, it grows with us, and will prove as lasting as our Beings; ‘tis the Centre to which all our Motions tend, it gives a Byass to our Actions, a sort of Fermentation to our Spirits, makes us press forward, keeps our Thoughts bent, and always ready, with a precipitous Eagerness, a violent Impetuosity to rush on every Appearance of Good, to grasp whatever has but the Resemblance of Happiness, or, what is infinitely more deplorable, too often obtrudes upon us real Evils for seeming Goods:

As there is a Scale of Beings, so there are Degrees of Perfection, Beauties continually flowing from their divine Source in various Measures and Proportions, and dilating themselves through the whole Creation: Wherever we cast our Eyes, we may see them displaying their Charms; by Day shining in the glorious Fountain of Light, by Night glittering in ten thousand Stars; sparkling in Gems, pleasing the Sight in Gold, delighting the Eye in lofty Trees, in the admirable Colours of Fruits and Flowers, in the florid Green of Plants and Grass, and in the amazing Mechanism of Insects and Reptils, those surprizing and inimitable Finenesses which by the help of Glasses are discoverable in their minute Bodies, usefully entertaining it with the exact Proportion of Parts, and the wonderful Variety of Shapes in Birds, Beasts, and Fishes:
The Pleasures of Babel
Authors: Clayton Jay 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Jay Clayton’s new book offers a lucid cutting-edge explication of the often stormy relationship between contemporary literature and criticism. Repudiating the jargon of theory, Clayton systematically makes sense of the movements of the last two decades: deconstruction, feminism. In a wholly original fashion Clayton succeeds in fusing a layman’s guide to recent criticism with a scholarly work that directly engages theories of narrative by applying them to some of the most prominent American writers of our time.
The Story of Deconstruction
Authors: Clayton Jay 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Song of Solomon (1977), Toni Morrison’s novel about a young black man growing up in the middle of the United States in the middle of the twentieth century, dwells on politics and poetics with equal fervor. The novel dramatizes some pressing contemporary problems racial — inequality, class conflict, terrorism, the oppression of women, and the division between generations; but it also explores some perennial aesthetic topics — the value of oral traditions, the magic of names, the nature of myth and ritual, the power of story and song. This fusion of contemporary politics and traditional narrative forms has created much satisfying fiction, not only in Morrison’s hands but also in those of many other contemporary writers. So perhaps I should ask how Morrison mediates between her interest in storytelling and her political concerns. What link does her novel establish between the narrative forms it celebrates and structures of social, economic, or political power?
Rituals of Change: Ethnography on the Border
Authors: Clayton Jay 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Such reflections trouble Lupe, the narrator of “Bien Pretty,” a Chicana artist whose U.S. education left her Spanish “sounding like the subtitles to a Bunuel film” (153). The stories in Sandra Cisneros’s new collection capture the joys and pains and sorrows of living in two cultures (at least two), in a style that often flits between languages in the same sentence. Her work fleshes out the latest abstraction, “multiculturalism.” It embodies the wonderful, vertiginous, at times terrifying truth that many people in this nation live in more than one culture.
Feminism and the Politics of Community
Authors: Clayton Jay 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
One of the last novels I read while completing this study was Gail Godwin’s Father Melancholy’s Daughter (1991). This moving, intellectually rich narrative has many similarities to a highly praised novel of the late seventies, Mary Gordon’s Final Payments (1978). Both concern young women who have spent years as their father’s primary companion; both explore the influence of religion on the narrators; and both attend to unfashionable topics such as responsibility, tradition, and self-sacrifice.
Brood Care and Social Behavior
Authors: Mahsberg Dieter 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Brood care is generally considered to be “any form of parental behavior that appears likely to increase the fitness of a parent’s off spring” (Clutton-Brock, 1991, p. 8). Sociality is defined as the temporary or permanent cooperation in a group of communicating conspecifics (Wilson, 1971). An extension of parent-offspring interactions beyond the age when young can feed themselves may lead to a social system. Such a scenario, with its roots in parental care, occurs along the subsocial route in the evolution of social behavior.
Evolution of Geographic Variation in Body Size and Life-History Traits
Authors: Myers Chris 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Body size is a fundamental trait affecting virtually every aspect of an organism’s biology. Size influences the metabolic and structural characteristics of individuals and their ability to accommodate cold, heat, water, and other environmental stresses (Bergmann, 1847; Oliver et al., 1979; Calder, 1984), size is often linked to life-history traits of organisms such as fecundity, age at maturity, and life span (Cole, 1954; Gadgil and Bossert, 1970; Oliver et al., 1979; Roff, 1981; Rose and Charles worth, 1981a,b; Speiss and Speiss, 1986), and size influences ecological interactions by affecting an individual’s status as potential competitor, predator, or prey (Morse. 1974; Wilbur, 1975; Peters, 1983; Polis, 1984; Werner and Gilliam, 1984; Ebenman and Persson, 1988). It is no accident that a rich tradition of theoretical and empirical science continues to grow around questions of how body size influences an individual’s life history, population structure, and community organization.
Paleontology
Authors: Jeram Andrew J 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Today’s scorpion fauna reaches its peak of diversity in desert habitats (Polis, 1990), but fossil evidence indicates that the earliest scorpions were fully aquatic. Around 410 MYA the scorpions began a dramatic shift in biology, successfully making the transition from water to land. Once on land they proceeded to colonize a wide range of terrestrial environments, although this took place over tens of millions of years, culminating in the desert scorpions of the present day.
Radioresistance of Scorpions
Authors: Goyffon Max , Roman Vincent 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
The first indication that scorpions had unusually high resistance to ionizing radiation came in 1960 from nuclear weapons testing by France in the Sahara; near ground-zero the only animals to survive the detonations were scorpions (Androctonus sp.) and some Coleopteran beetles (Pimelia sp.). The resistance of these animals to irradiation was soon confirmed in laboratory tests (Vachon et al., 1963, 1964), and repeated in the field by Allred (1973) at the Nevada test site in the United States. Since that time several studies have sought to identify the characteristics of animals that determine susceptibility to ionizing radiations (Goyffon, 1975, 1983).
Cavalieri’s Geometry of Indivisibles and Guldin’s Centers of Gravity
Authors: Mancosu Paolo 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
The passage from classical Greek mathematics to seventeenth-century mathematics is marked by two dramatic events: the widespread use of infinitary techniques in geometry and the algebraization of geometry. At first independent, they show a close interaction later in the century. In this chapter I shall begin the analysis of the relevance of the use of infinitistic techniques for the philosophy of mathematics, and in later chapters I shall deal with the issue of analytic techniques.
It is often said that the Greeks avoided recourse to the infinite in their mathematics. However, one should be careful here. The remark is correct only if referred to the formal expositions found in Greek mathematical texts. Indeed, it is quite well known that heuristically the Greeks appealed to infinitistic techniques, as witnessed by Archimedes’ Method, a short treatise rediscovered in 1906 which contains, in the form of a letter from Archimedes to Eratosthenes, an explanation of Archimedes’ heuristic strategies for the discovery of theorems in geometry concerning areas, volumes, and centers of gravity. Archimedes explains in his Method how to exploit in geometrical investigations mechanical considerations and indivisibilist techniques, where the latter denomination refers to the idea of considering a plane figure (or a solid) as being “constituted” by lines (or planes).
The Problem of Continuity
Authors: Mancosu Paolo 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
In chapter 1 I mentioned that one important issue in the historiography of mathematics is whether there is a continuity or a discontinuity between the mathematics practiced by seventeenth-century mathematicians and the previous developments. In particular, the issue has been dealt with extensively in connection with Descartes’ achievements vis-à-vis the Greek mathematical tradition. By bringing into the picture the epistemology of mathematics two further problems can be raised. In the introduction to chapter 1 I have already pointed out the connection of such problems to the debates on continuity and discontinuity in the history and epistemology of physics.
The first problem, which has already been raised in the literature, is that of the continuity between the Renaissance epistemology of mathematics and later, especially seventeenth-century, epistemologies of mathematics. Since we have established that the Quaestio enjoyed considerable success in the seventeenth-century we are now in a position to deal with the problem of continuity between Renaissance and seventeenth-century epistemologies of mathematics. The most basic level at which continuity can be claimed is simply by remarking that many seventeenth-century scholars involved in debates on the nature of mathematics did so within the framework provided by the Renaissance Quaestio.
Strategies for Secondary Prevention
Authors: Stone Peter H , Sacks Frank M 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
The last two decades have witnessed dramatic changes in the care of patients with coronary heart disease (CHO). Coronary care units, which developed in the late 1960s, proved to be effective in identifying and treating arrhythmias that complicate acute myocardial infarction (Ml), but mortality due to pump failure remained high (Goldman 1982). In the 1980s and early 1990s, early reperfusion strategies using thrombolytic therapy or primary percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) to limit infarct size and preserve left ventricular function, further improved survival after MI (Anderson 1993). A simultaneous advance in cardiology has been the appreciation that various post-MI treatment strategies could be implemented routinely to reduce the incidence of recurrent MI, congestive heart failure, and cardiac death following an index MI (i.e., “secondary” prevention).
The time course of mortality and cardiac complications following acute MI is characterized by a very high risk period in the first month or so after the index event, followed by a high-risk period for the next 6 months, and then a subsequent period of low and constant risk (Figure 18.1). Prompt initiation of therapies to prevent cardiac complications after MI is therefore essential to provide meaningful protection; most studies of secondary prevention begin within 1 to 3 weeks of MI and maintain therapy for at least one year. This chapter focuses on randomized, placebo-controlled, and blinded studies that use this strategy of secondary prevention. In some studies the investigational therapy begins in the first few hours following MI and continues for the next few weeks or months. The observed effect thus may be due to a reduction in the initial infarct size and not to the effects of more sustained chronic therapy. This therapeutic strategy addresses both reduction of acute infarct size and secondary prevention, so such studies will not be reviewed in this chapter.
Certaine Qvaeres To the bayter of Women.
Authors: Speght Rachel 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Although (curteous Reader) I am young in yeares, and more defective in knowledge, that little smattering in Learning which I have obtained, being only the fruit of such vacant houres, as I could spare from affaires befitting my Sex, yet am I not altogether ignorant of that Analogie which ought to be used in a literate Responsarie: But the Bearebayting of Women, unto which I have framed my Apologeticall answere, beeing altogether without methode, irregular, without Grammaticall Concordance, and a promiscuous mingle mangle, it would admit no such order to be observed in the answering thereof, as a regular Responsarie requireth.
Wherfore (gentle Reader) favorably consider, that as that Painter is not to be held unskilfull, which having a deformed Object, makes the like portraiture; no more am I justly to be blamed for my immethodicall Apologie, sith any judicious Reader may plainely see, that the Bayter of Women his pestiferous obtrectation is like a Taylers Cushion, that is botcht together of shreddes, so that, were it not to prevent future infection with that venome, which he hath, and daily doth sweate out, I would have beene loath to have spent time so idlely, as to answere it at all: but a crooked pot-lid well enough fits a wrie-neckt pot, an unfashioned shooe a misshapen foote, and an illiterate answere an unlearned irreligious provocation. His absurdities therein contayned, are so many, that to answere them severally, were as frivolous a worke, as to make a Trappe for a Flea, and as tedious as the pursuite of an Arrow to an impotent man. Yet to prevent his having occasion to say, that I speake of many, but can instance none, I have thought it meete to present a few of them to his view, as followeth, that if Follie have taken roote in him, he may seeke to extirpate it, and to blush at the sight of that fruit, which he hath already brought foorth; a fruite I call it (not unfitly I hope) because a Crabbe may so be termed, as well as a good Apple.
Mortalities Memorandvm, With A Dreame Prefixed, Imaginarie in Manner; Real! In Matter.
Authors: Speght Rachel 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Amongst diversity of motives to induce the divulging of that to publique view, which was devoted to private Contemplation, none is worthy to precede desire of common benefit. Crone kept close in a garner feeds not the hungry; A candle put under a bushel doth not illuminate an house; None but unprofitable servants knit up Gods talent in a Napkin. These premises have caused the Printing presses to expresses the subsequent Memorandum of Mortalities, by which if oblivious persons shall bee incited to premeditation of, and preparation against their last houre, when inevitable Death seazing on them, shall cease their beeing upon earth, I shall with Jacob say, I have enough: I levell at no other mark, nor aye at other end, but to have all sorts to mark and provide for their latter end. I know these populous times afford plenty of forward Writers, and critical Readers; Myself hath made the number of the one too many by one; and having bin touch with the censures of the other, by occasion of my mooseling Melastomus, I am now, as by a strong motive induced (for my rights sake) to produce and divulge this off-spring of my indevour, to prove them further futurity who have formerly deprived me of my due, imposing my abortive upon the father of me, but not of it. Their varietie of verdicts have verified the adagie quot hominess, tot sententiot, and made my experience confirm that apothegm which doth affirmed Censure to be inevitable to a publique act.
BOOK II

Published: November 2023

Abstract
I have in the former part made a short explanation of the parts of both sexes, that are needful for this use, but yet some think that there is no need of describing the parts of them both, because some have written that the Generative parts in men, differ not from those in women, but in respect of place and situation in the body;1 and that a woman may become a man, and that one Tyresias 2 was a man for many years, and after that was strangely metamorphos’ d into a woman, and again from a woman to a man, and that in regard he had been of both sexes, he was chosen as the most fit Judge to determine that great question, which of the two Male or Female find most pleasure in time of Copulation.
