description: Dans l'élaboration de cette thèse, mon objectif était d'entreprendre une adaptation théâtrale et, ce faisant, de mieux comprendre les enjeux du processus de création d'une oeuvre à partir d'une oeuvre existante, en l'occurrence, La Chatte, un roman que Colette a écrit en 1933. Les théories sur l'adaptation théâtrale étant rares, j'ai entrepris une étude de deux des adaptations que Colette a écrites en collaboration avec Leopold Marchand, les pièces La Vagabonde et Chéri qui m'ont servi d'exemples et aussi de contre-modèles pour résoudre les questions de concentration du récit et de transposition scénique. En outre la mise en scène du roman devait relever un défi de taille, l'omniprésence de la chatte, personnage éponyme du roman où elle est traitée de l'extérieur par un narrateur omniscient. De plus l'oeuvre de Colette s'inscrit dans une époque et un milieu social qui trouve peu d'échos dans le public contemporain. Le processus d'adaptation se devait de prendre en compte la réception et d'inclure des éléments, tant scéniques que thématiques, pour rapprocher l'oeuvre originale du spectateur potentiel. L'adaptation a ainsi tirer parti de techniques audio-visuelles et de la familiarité du public avec des traitements modernes sur les plans de la structure, du temps et de l'espace pour créer une pièce qui soit contemporaine tout en rendant justice au roman et à son auteure.

description: Background: Plants are exposed to attack from a large variety of herbivores. Feeding insects can induce substantial changes of the host plant transcriptome. Arabidopsis thaliana has been established as a relevant system for the discovery of genes associated with response to herbivory, including genes for specialized (i.e. secondary) metabolism as well as genes involved in plant-insect defence signalling. Results Using a 70-mer oligonulceotide microarray covering 26,090 gene-specific elements, we monitored changes of the Arabidopsis leaf transcriptome in response to feeding by diamond back moth (DBM; Plutella xylostella) larvae. Analysis of samples from a time course of one hour to 24 hours following onset of DBM feeding revealed almost three thousand (2,881) array elements (including 2,671 genes with AGI annotations) that were differentially expressed (>2-fold; p[t-test] < 0.05) of which 1,686 also changed more than twofold in expression between at least two time points of the time course with p(ANOVA) < 0.05. While the majority of these transcripts were up-regulated within 8 h upon onset of insect feeding relative to untreated controls, cluster analysis identified several distinct temporal patterns of transcriptome changes. Many of the DBM-induced genes fall into ontology groups annotated as stress response, secondary metabolism and signalling. Among DBM-induced genes associated with plant signal molecules or phytohormones, genes associated with octadecanoid signalling were clearly overrepresented. We identified a substantial number of differentially expressed genes associated with signal transduction in response to DBM feeding, and we compared there expression profiles with those of previously reported transcriptome responses induced by other insect herbivores, specifically Pieris rapae, Frankliniella occidentalis, Bemisia tabaci,Myzus persicae, and Brevicoryne brassicae. Conclusion Arabidopsis responds to feeding DBM larvae with a drastic reprogramming of the transcriptome, which has considerable overlap with the response induced by other insect herbivores. Based on a meta-analysis of microarray data we identified groups of transcription factors that are either affected by multiple forms of biotic or abiotic stress including DBM feeding or, alternatively, were responsive to DBM herbivory but not to most other forms of stress.

description: La question du crime organisé (C.O.) occupe une place importante dans les discours politiques de nos gouvernements depuis les années 30. Les médias traitent également abondamment de la question. Les discours portant sur la question sont généralement alarmistes, c'est-à-dire qu'ils dépeignent le C.O. comme étant une menace insidieuse pour laquelle la seule solution possible demeure la répression policière. Or, les discours des différentes agences gouvernementales ne furent pas toujours les mêmes. Plusieurs changements importants sont survenus au niveau du concept même de ce qu'est le C.O. Ainsi, depuis la fin des années 70, le concept servait essentiellement à catégoriser davantage certains groupes minoritaires alors que dans les années 30 il était synonyme de " racketeering " impliquant des policiers, des politiciens et des hommes d'affaires. Comme les discours semblent changer selon les contextes et l'émetteur, nous avons voulu étudier celui d'une agence gouvernementale fédérale canadienne représentant différentes organisations policières dans l'ensemble du pays. L'analyse du discours, selon la théorie de la rhétorique, nous permit de mettre en lumière le processus rédactionnel déployé par le Service canadien de renseignements criminels (SCRC) lors de la création de leurs rapports annuels. Par l'emploi de différentes techniques rédactionnelles (images, statistiques, citations, évènements concrets, etc.) l'agence étatique transmet une image alarmiste et subjective du C.O. au Canada. Cette analyse prend place dans une approche constructiviste, c'est-à-dire que l'on considère le concept du C.O., tel qu'abordé par le SCRC, comme étant une réalité construite et institutionnalisée. Ainsi abordée, cette recherche nous permet de mieux comprendre le discours de l'agence, son processus rédactionnel et la pertinence de ses rapports.
Repeated estradiol administration alters different aspects of neurogenesis and cell death in the hippocampus of female, but not male, rats

description: Estradiol has been shown to have neuroprotective effects, and acute estradiol treatment enhances hippocampal neurogenesis in the female brain. However, little is known about the effects of repeated administration of estradiol on the female brain, or about the effects of estradiol on the male brain. Gonadectomized male and female adult rats were injected with BrdU (200 mg/kg), and then 24 h later were given a s.c. injection of either estradiol benzoate (33 g/kg) or vehicle daily for 15 days. On day 16, animals were perfused and the brains processed to examine cells expressing Ki-67 (cell proliferation), BrdU (cell survival), doublecortin (young neuron production), pyknotic morphology (cell death), activated caspase-3 (apoptosis), and Fluoro-Jade B (degenerating neurons) in the dentate gyrus. In female rats, repeated administration of estradiol decreased the survival of new neurons (independent of any effects on initial cell proliferation), slightly increased cell proliferation, and decreased overall cell death in the dentate gyrus. In male rats, repeated administration of estradiol had no significant effect on neurogenesis or cell death. We therefore demonstrate a clear sex difference in the response to estradiol of hippocampal neurogenesis and apoptosis in adult rats, with adult females being more responsive to the effects of estradiol than males.

description: Cryptolopha montis floris Hartert
 Cryptolopha montis floris Hartert, 1897b: 171 (South Flores).
 Now Seicercus montis floris (Hartert, 1897). See White and Bruce, 1986: 349, and Mees, 2006: 161–162.
LECTOTYPE: AMNH 450579, adult male, collected on south Flores, above 3500 ft, in November 1896, by native collectors for Alfred Everett. From the Rothschild Collection.
COMMENTS: No type was designated in the original description, but Hartert noted that he had a ‘‘number of skins’’. He (Hartert, 1897d: 524) provided no additional information about the specimens when he reported on the entire collection, but did note that Everett’s collectors went inland from ‘‘Nanga Ramau’’ on the south coast into the mountains that rise to about 5000 ft near the sea. See also Mees (2006: 12) with regard to this locality.
 Nine specimens of Cryptolopha montis floris collected by Everett on south Flores came to AMNH with the Rothschild Collection. Hartert (1920: 501) listed as type a male collected above 3500 ft in November 1896. There are four such males. AMNH 450579 bears the Rothschild type label, indicating that this is the specimen that Hartert intended as the type, and it is so cataloged at AMNH. In order to prevent possible confusion in the future, I hereby designate AMNH 450579 the lectotype of Cryptolopha montis floris. Paralectotypes are AMNH 450577 and 450578, males collected in October 1896; AMNH 450580–450582, males collected in November 1896; AMNH 450583 and 450584, females collected in October 1896; and AMNH 450585, unsexed specimen collected in November 1896.

description: Turmeric oleoresin microcapsules were prepared by complex coacervation of gum arabic (GA) and chitosan (Ch) using genipin as a crosslinker. For this propose, the effect of pH and the biopolymer mass ratio (RGA/ChpH) on the zeta-potential and coacervate yield and their viscoelastic properties were evaluated. A liquid-like behavior was found for all the samples in the small- and large-amplitude oscillatory shear regions, with sample R54.5 having the highest viscoelastic properties. Samples R63, R54.5 and R46 with the highest coacervate yield (∼98%) for each pH chosen to produce the microcapsules. Then, turmeric oleoresin-gum arabic emulsions were produced and characterized. The pH affected the droplet size and charge. At pH 3.0, the droplets were about 50 nm and had a negative charge. At pH 4.5 and 6.0, the droplets were larger but more negatively charged. These emulsions were coated with chitosan and crosslinked with genipin were lyophilized to make microcapsules, showing high encapsulation efficiency (>98%) and low surface oil content (4.5–9.0%). The crosslinked turmeric oleoresin microcapsules showed lower swelling and water uptake in gastrointestinal media than did the uncrosslinked powders. The results of this research will contribute to the knowledge of coacervate systems for nutraceutical applications.

description: Les pratiques sportives alternatives connaissent une croissance importante. Jadis considérées marginales, ces pratiques sportives, telles que la planche à neige, le skateboard ou encore le vélo de montagne, s'institutionnalisent. Le but de cette thèse etait de proposer une explication du processus d'institutionnalisation de l'une de ces pratiques sportives, soit la planche à neige, dans un contexte déterminé, soit le contexte canadien. Le concept de champ développé par Pierre Bourdieu fut mis à contribution pour tenter de (re)construire le champ de ce sport à plusieurs époques différentes afin de voir comment la dynamique d'intéraction entre les différents agents et les différentes institutions a contribue à l'institutionnalisation de la pratique sportive. À ce titre, nous avons remarqué que le processus d'institutionnalisation de la planche à neige au Canada peut être divisé en deux phases: la décennie '80 et la décennie '90. L'opposition entre les skieurs et les planchistes couplée au contexte de pratique particulier de la planche à neige sont les deux vecteurs qui contribuent à former les premières institutions au cours des années '80. Nous les avons appelées les contre-institutions. Pendant les années '90, la croissance du nombre de participants, l'acceptation généralisée des planchistes dans les centres de ski, la création des premières institutions pancanadiennes et l'acceptation du sport aux Olympiques engendrent une augmentation du capital symbolique des institutions et agents reliés à la planche à neige à l'intérieur du champ plus large des sports de glisse canadiens. En retour, cette hausse significative mène, au tournant du siècle, a une institutionnalisation relativement complète de cette pratique sportive. En réaction à ces résultats et pour faire écho aux recherches de Lamprecht et Stamm (2001), nous proposons, en dernier lieu, une discussion critique du terme 'sport alternatif' qui débouche sur la création d'un modèle pour la compréhension de l'institutionnalisation des pratiques sportives en général.
On the validity of area-based income measures to proxy household income

description:   Background: This paper assesses the agreement between household-level income data and an area-based income measure, and whether or not discrepancies create meaningful differences when applied in regression equations estimating total household prescription drug expenditures. Methods Using administrative data files for the population of BC, Canada, we calculate income deciles from both area-based census data and Canada Revenue Agency validated household-level data. These deciles are then compared for misclassification. Spearman's correlation, kappa coefficients and weighted kappa coefficients are all calculated. We then assess the validity of using the area-based income measure as a proxy for household income in regression equations explaining socio-economic inequalities in total prescription drug expenditures. Results The variability between household-level income and area-based income is large. Only 37% of households are classified by area-based measures to be within one decile of the classification based on household-level incomes. Statistical evidence of the disagreement between income measures also indicates substantial misclassification, with Spearman's correlations, kappa coefficients and weighted kappa coefficients all indicating little agreement. The regression results show that the size of the coefficients changes considerably when area-based measures are used instead of household-level measures, and that use of area-based measures smooths out important variation across the income distribution. Conclusion These results suggest that, in some contexts, the choice of area-based versus household-level income can drive conclusions in an important way. Access to reliable household-level income/socio-economic data such as the tax-validated data used in this study would unambiguously improve health research and therefore the evidence on which health and social policy would ideally rest.
The bright future of dark matter and dark energy searches

description: Dark matter and dark energy clearly emerged from recent cosmological surveys as key ingredients of the Universe. Understanding their physical nature might be a way to unlock some of the mysteries in particle physics and General Relativity. In this talk I will discuss how gravitational lensing will have a unique contribution in this endeavor. I will also discuss how future weak lensing surveys, primarily designed to study dark matter and dark energy, will enable the detailed analysis of the physical processes underlying structure formation such as galaxies and clusters of galaxies.

Improving depth perception in 3D environments using funneling illusion

description: A key challenge facing 3D interface designers, and operators who teleoperate remote environments is to develop effective techniques to depict objects in 3D space on a 2-dimensional physical medium; a flat computer screen. Spatial relationships among objects, their sizes and locations are of high importance for users in order to be able to locate and manipulate these objects. In particular, depth perception (z dimension) is a main challenge for researchers who have designed many depth cues in order to overcome it. The main trend of providing depth perception is stereoscopy; other approaches utilize shading and shadow, motion, reference frames, size, perspective and others. These visual cues, including stereoscopy, have certain limitations. In this work, we propose to exploit human sensory modality for perceiving depth in teleoperated 3D environments where complex visual information - which may distract the operator - is presented. We exploit the funneling illusion phenomenon to provide a high resolution tactile depth display on the forearm. It utilizes stimulus location perception rather than stimulus intensity perception. One psychophysical experiment is conducted to study the resolution of the funneling illusion method on the forearm, and another experiment to evaluate its performance in a Telepresence and teleaction (TPTA) system scenario where a fragile dangerous object is being manipulated. Experiments show that our approach can replace the visual feedback methods and outperforms the stimulus intensity perception method.

 Now Seicercus montis paulinae Mayr, 1944. See White and Bruce, 1986: 349, and del Hoyo et al., 2006: 679.
HOLOTYPE: AMNH 308004, adult male, collected on Mount Mutis, 1800 m, 04.35S, 124.15E (Times Atlas), Timor Island, Indonesia, on 26 February 1932, by Georg Stein (no. 3328).
COMMENTS: The AMNH number of the holotype was cited in the original description. Paratypes are AMNH 345936–345951, all collected on Mt. Mutis.
 The expedition of Georg and Clara Stein to Timor was supported by J. Sterling Rockefeller, with the cooperation of Erwin Stresemann in Berlin. After World War II, in January 1956, a portion of the collection was sent to ZMB. The following paratypes of paulinae were among those specimens: AMNH 345937, 345940, 345946, 345947, and 345950. I did not find AMNH 345944, and there is no indication in the AMNH catalog of its whereabouts. It is not in ZMB (S. Frahnert, personal commun.). Unfortunately, Stein was unable to publish his field notes for his Timor collection as he had done for his collection from the Weyland Mountains in New Guinea; his home and all of his notebooks were destroyed during World War II (Stresemann, 1967: 186–187).

description: Psychology has had difficulty accounting for the creative, context-sensitive manner in which concepts are used. We believe this stems from the view of concepts as identifiers rather than bridges between mind and world that participatein the generation of meaning. This paper summarizes the history and current status of concepts research, and provides a non-technical summary of work toward an ecological approach to concepts. We outline the rationale for applying generalizations of formalisms originally developed for use in quantum mechanics to the modeling of concepts, showing how it is because of the role of context that deep structural similarities exist between the two. A concept is defined not just in terms of exemplary states and their features or properties, but also by the relational structures of these properties, and their susceptibility to change under different contexts. The approach implies a view of mind in which the union of perception and environment drives conceptualization, forging a web of conceptual relations or �ecology of mind�.

description: Since late 1992 the possibility of establishing holding companies in the PRC to streamline different investment projects under a corporate body gains more and more attention in the community of multinational companies. Although the possible scope of business outlined in the Interim-Regulations (that had been promulgated by MOFTEC in April 1995) did not meet all the hopes and expectations of potential investors, the number of approved holding companies keeps on growing. The reason for the success of the new organizational concept can be seen in the actual and future improvements, which might be achieved through a holding group structure. These can be located in different important aspects of investments. By nature they are economical, but also hidden structural, organizational and strategic resources can be realized. Even innovative intercultural concepts of management and communications can possibly be developed within the holding network.

 Now Sylvia atricapilla gularis Alexander, 1898. See del Hoyo et al., 2006: 693.
SYNTYPES: AMNH 595658, male, and AMNH 595659, female, collected on Santiago Island, Cape Verde Islands, in February 1897, by Boyd Alexander. From the Rothschild Collection.
COMMENTS: Alexander did not designate a type in the original description, saying that he had collected five specimens and describing male and female. The description was based entirely on Santiago Island specimens, and only the two listed above from that island came to AMNH with the Rothschild Collection. They were not listed as types by Hartert and had not previously been included in the AMNH type collection.
Hazevoet (1995: 140) did not support the recognition of a separate subspecies in the Cape Verde Islands, having noted that the birds described by Alexander as having the ‘‘chin and upper throat umber-brown’’ were stained by pollen. Alexander, however, also noted a difference in song.
 See Cibois (2003) and papers cited therein for evidence that Sylvia is a babbler and for a discussion of the taxonomic implications.

description: South-East Asia's metropolitan areas have been facing enormous change and growth within the past three decades. Globalization and Nationalization are the bases of both political and social conflicts within these rapidly changing developing economies. This article focuses on the special situation of Indonesia, whose capital Jakarta has become the focus of internationalization in the late sixties, when President Suharto established his 'New Order' programme. Special emphasis is put on economic, social and demographic development within the metropolitan area of Jabotabek, a 24 million megalopolis developing around the core city and focus of international investment, that is heavily dependent on national stability in order to cope with growing competition within the Asia-Pacific area. In addition to increasing urban-rural linkages and the prevalence of state and islamic influence, the rapid polarization of Indonesia's society is likely to prevent Jakarta's (politically desired) rise to a global city. The findings presented are based on the results of an interdisciplinary research project ("Migration in Third World mega-cities"), which is presently being carried out by the Department of Geography at the University of Vienna.

description: Friendship is a significant aspect of our lives. We make friends, engage in activities with them, and share an emotional bond with them. However, despite its familiarity and prevalence, there is no common agreement regarding what constitutes friendship and what its proper role in our lives is. Some people consider it an intrinsically good relationship and prioritize it in their lives and conduct, and others view it as a valuable relationship, alongside other relationships, having no primacy or priority of its own. My purpose in this dissertation is to critically examine friendship and to determine its proper nature, content and value in our lives. I discuss the above issues with specific reference to three major moral-political traditions. These are virtue ethics, deontology, and utilitarianism. I focus on a leading representative of each tradition, namely, Aristotle, Kant and Mill. Both deontology and utilitarianism, Kant and Mill, construe friendship in terms of certain abstract universal moral principles. They contend that, as a moral person, one must accord equal considerations to both friends as well as non-friends. That is, one must act impartially in friendship. Against Kant and Mill, Aristotle holds that a friendship is a personal relationship, and that it is inherently incompatible with impartiality. He argues that friendship either is virtue or necessitates virtue, and as such, it is an essential constituent of a good life and flourishing existence. Aristotle's view that a good friendship and a good life require effective moral co-operation with others in society has generated interest in the present times. On the one hand, it is argued that Aristotle provides us with a fulfilling account of friendship and a good life. On the other hand, it is claimed that Aristotle's view is in disagreement with an individual's freedom of choice, and inconsistent with the central tenets of present-day liberalism. In this thesis, I argue that Aristotle provides us with an enriching account of friendship, and that his view of friendship and the good life is fully compatible with an individual's free choice and moral autonomy. I further argue that Aristotle's view complements liberalism; hence, it is a mistake to see these views as adversaries.

description: Besides the detrimental impact of an aging population on state pay-as-you-go pension schemes, Asia's rapid industrialization as well as urbanization continues to decrease the importance of the traditional family-based (informal) old-age support substantially. Especially, predominantly agrarian societies like China and Indonesia have to build-up formal pension systems. Except for Japan, state pay-as-you-go pension scheme are not common. In most countries corporate pension schemes exist, while only in Malaysia and Singapore individual retirement accounts managed by a national agency are mandatory; therefore, its capital stock being of economic relevance. Due to higher returns of privately run pension funds, recent reforms in Asia have led to a spreading of (mandatory) occupational pension schemes on a defined-contribution basis, leaving only the supervision and regulation in the hands of the government. At the same time, less strict portfolio regulation as well as a general trend towards increasing the retirement age is observable. Nevertheless, these reforms provide only first steps towards the construction of fully formal pension systems in Asia.

Stepping off the paper trail? Rethinking the mainframe era at the Public Archives of Canada

description: During the 1960s and 1970s, Canadians increasingly used computers and computerized processes for government and business purposes. By the 1980s, some began to have personal computers at home. This thesis examines the experiences of emerging computerization by focusing on the Public Archives of Canada during this period. The 1960s saw the first computer projects at the Public Archives, although these efforts had mixed reviews. Many archivists feared that automated information retrieval would compromise the quality of their service, and professional position, while others argued that computers were a necessary efficiency to meet the growing demands on their institution. Overall, the decade of the 1960s was one in which many archivists encountered computers, computerized processes and computer records for the first time, and they responded with a range of feelings and reactions. By the outset of the 1970s, a select group of advocates proposed the concept of a Machine Readable Archives. When the creation of this division was approved in 1973, its staff members formed a distinct professional community within the Public Archives. They held a complex position as the computer "haves" of the federal archives and records management community, and the relative "have nots" in their communication with departmental computer personnel. The Machine Readable Archives became the hub of attempted communication and cooperation among all of these players, during the period of major technological development during the 1970s and early 1980s. By the time of the Machine Readable Archives' closure in 1986, computers were frequently used as an archival tool. A survey among archival leaders in the mid-1980s concluded that archivists, once a technologically conservative profession, had not only adopted the use of computers into their repositories, but most of them were optimistic about their profession's role in the evolving technological environment. Archivists' changing views of computers paralleled the increasing acceptance and familiarity of computer technology within Canadian society. To accommodate computerization, many Canadians adapted their work processes, and negotiated new work relationships. In Canada during these years, individuals responded to computers, personally and professionally, in complex and contradictory ways that reflected both reservations and excitement. The Public Archives of Canada, and especially the Machine Readable Archives, provide a significant focus to analyse this dynamic and changing milieu as Canadians engaged with the technological and cultural transformations of the era.

Curruca nigricapilla

description: Curruca nigricapilla Brehm
 Curruca nigricapilla Brehm, 1831: 417 (Sie bewönt unsere Fichtenwälder).
 Now Sylvia atricapilla atricapilla (Linnaeus, 1758). See Hartert, 1918a: 32, and Shirihai et al., 2001: 45, 53.
SYNTYPES: AMNH 455553 and 455554, male and female (tied together), collected in ‘‘Renthendorfer Nadelholz’’, Germany, on 30 June 1830. From the Brehm Collection via the Rothschild Collection.
 COMMENTS: In his list of the Brehm types, Hartert (1918a: 32) listed both of these specimens as types. Three other Brehm specimens cataloged as nigricapilla came with the Rothschild Collection. AMNH 455555 and 455556 were exchanged to ZFMK; if they are labeled nigricapilla by Brehm, they are also syntypes. AMNH 455557 from Dalmatia, May 1822, was also collected early enough, but because Dalmatia was not included in the range of the form, I do not consider it a syntype. Renthendorf is at 50.48N, 11.58E (USBGN, 1959).

description: Background: Recent pathological studies have suggested that thalamic degeneration may represent a site of non-dopaminergic degeneration in Parkinson's Disease (PD). Our objective was to determine if changes in the thalami could be non-invasively detected in structural MRI images obtained from subjects with Parkinson disease (PD), compared to age-matched controls. Results No significant differences in volume were detected in the thalami between eighteen normal subjects and eighteen PD subjects groups. However significant (p < 0.03) shape differences were detected between the Left vs. Right thalami in PD, between the left thalami in PD and controls, and between the right thalami in PD and controls using a recently-developed, spherical harmonic-based representation. Conclusion Systematic changes in thalamic shape can be non-invasively assessed in PD in vivo. Shape changes, in addition to volume changes, may represent a new avenue to assess the progress of neurodegenerative processes. Although not directly discernable at the resolution of standard MRI, previous pathological studies would suggest that the shape changes detected in this study represent degeneration in the centre median-parafascicular (CM-Pf) complex, an area known to represent selective non-dopaminergic degeneration in PD.
"La conciliation au lieu de la coercition": La politique de désaveu du gouvernement de Wilfrid Laurier (1896--1911)

description: L'AANB de 1867 confie le pouvoir de désavouer les lois provinciales au Dominion. Dès lors, le gouvernement fédéral peut annuler n'importe quel acte provincial. Il s'agit donc d'un pouvoir qui permet au Dominion de transgresser les divisions législatives énumérées dans LAANB et par conséquent, de s'ingérer dans les affaires des provinces menaçant ainsi leur autonomie. Bien que ce pouvoir particulier ait suscité l'intérêt des chercheurs, les études à son sujet l'abordent essentiellement sous l'angle de la Confédération et de la lutte pour les droits provinciaux. Cette thèse porte plutôt sur la politique de désaveu du gouvernement de Wilfrid Laurier. Plus particulièrement, elle cherche à comprendre comment un gouvernement mené par un provincialiste inlassable, qui craint publiquement le pouvoir de désaveu, a pu opposer son véto à 30 lois provinciales et à 7 ordonnances territoriales. Cette recherche argumente que, sous Laurier, le Dominion utilise le désaveu de manière tres limitée, afin de ne pas s'ingérer dans les affaires des provinces. Ce désir de non-intervention et une interprétation de LAANB qui laisse une plus grande place aux provinces, permettent aux libéraux de Laurier de respecter davantage les compétences provinciales. De cette manière, la législation des provinces qui concerne uniquement leurs compétences, c'est-à-dire les lois intra vires, demeure alors en vigueur en dépit de la désapprobation du Dominion. Au cours de son mandat, le gouvernement de Laurier à malgré tout du se résoudre à exercer le pouvoir de désaveu. Deux types de lois occasionnent son utilisation : celles qui contreviennent à la politique du Dominion et celles qui sont considérées ultra vires. La première catégorie vise en grande partie les lois anti-asiatiques de la Colombie-Britannique désavouées étant donné qu'elles contreviennent au traite anglo-japonais. Quant aux lois ultra vires, elles subissent parfois le même destin puisqu'elles touchent aux compétences du Dominion. Ainsi, le gouvernement de Laurier n'utilise pas le désaveu pour empiéter sur les compétences des provinces, mais pour protéger les siennes de ce dont il perçoit être des transgressions provinciales. Le gouvernement de Laurier réussit donc à respecter l'autonomie des provinces malgré le fait que son interprétation de l'AANB exige parfois d'exercer son véto.

 Curruca caniceps Brehm, 1831: 421 (Sie kommt einzeln im April in der hiesigen Gegend vor).
 Now Sylvia communis communis Latham, 1787. See Hartert, 1909: 586, and Shirihai et al., 2001: 237, 244–246.
Syntype: AMNH 455601, adult male, collected at Renthendorf, 50.48N, 11.58E (USBGN, 1959), Germany, on 28 June 1830. From the Brehm Collection via the Rothschild Collection.
 COMMENTS: Hartert (1918a: 31) considered that Curruca caniceps Brehm and Curruca vidali Brehm had the same types. However, Brehm’s (1831: 421) C. caniceps was a bird or birds collected locally, which he (Brehm, 1857: 455) at some point considered to be a synonym of Sylvia cinerea Bechstein and which is now a synonym of Sylvia communis communis (see Hartert, 1909: 586). A search through the specimens of S. c. communis uncovered a single Renthendorf specimen labeled Curruca caniceps Brm. by Brehm. It has been added to the AMNH type collection.
 See below for a discussion of Curruca vidali.

description: In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird das Image von Bibliotheken in ausgewählten deutschsprachigen Wissenschaftsblogs untersucht. Dafür werden Blogeinträge von drei großen Plattformen ausgesucht, die die Worte Bibliothek bzw. Bibliotheken enthalten. Dieses Material wird mit der Methode der Inhaltsanalyse ausgewertet. Dabei werden die Fragen beantwortet, ob Bibliotheken in Wissenschaftsblogs vorkommen und welche Rollen ihnen dabei zugeschrieben werden. Im Zuge dessen wird auch auf die Wahrnehmung unterschiedlicher Bibliothekstypen eingegangen. Anschließend werden die in den Blogs gefundenen Fremdbilder von Bibliotheken mit den aus Literatur und Positionspapieren der letzten zehn Jahre ermittelten Selbstbildern von Bibliotheken verglichen. Sowohl Übereinstimmungen als auch Abweichungen werden aufgezeigt, um auf Basis der ausgesuchten Wissenschaftsblogs Hinweise auf den Realitätsbezug des Selbstbilds von Bibliotheken zu geben.
