Two cirolanid isopods, Eurydice longiantennata Nunomura and Ikehara, 1985 and Metacirolana japonica (Hansen, 1890), are newly reported based on the materials collected from the subtidal zone around ...Jeju Island. Eurydice longiantennata can be distinguishable from its congeners by the following features: body length is 5 mm; antennule is not extending beyond the cephalon; flagellum of the antenna is consisted of 31 flagellar articles; and pleotelson has eleven teeth and twelve setae distally. Metacirolana japonica is distinguished from its related species by the following characteristics: body is not ornament; pleonite 1 is entirely visible dorsally in male; pleotelson is gradually tapering distally; and uropodal rami have serrate margins.

Despite the recent archipelagraphic turn in island studies, there have been few literary studies of the archipelago. This paper has three aims. The first is to bring to light an archipelagraphic ...literary text that has not yet been explored in Island Studies Journal: Cuban writer Julieta Campos's The Fear of Losing Eurydice. The second is to develop 'archipelagraphy' (a term coined by DeLoughrey) into a methodology for reading literary texts, putting it into practice through an analysis of The Fear of Losing Eurydice. This archipelagraphic analysis reveals that Campos' text destabilizes the concept of the island as tabula rasa, an end-goal in a utopian quest. Instead utopia emerges as a call uttered by multiple voices across different times and spaces, resulting in the 'archipelago of desire' motif. This emancipatory cartography remaps western geographies of centre and periphery, instead stressing the connections between the Caribbean, Asia, Europe, and Africa. The paper's final aim is to provide a working definition of an archipelagraphic text.

Sandy beaches exposed to tide and waves are characterized by low abundance and diversity of benthic macrofauna, because of high-energy conditions. This is the reason why there are few studies on ...benthic communities living in such highly dynamic environments. It has been shown recently that tidal sandy beaches may act as biogeochemical reactors. Marine organic matter that is supplied in the sand during each flood tide is efficiently mineralized through aerobic respiration. In order to quantify the role of macrofauna in the whole beach benthic respiration, we studied the macrofauna and the pore water oxygen content of an exposed sandy beach (Truc Vert, SW of France) during four seasons in 2011. The results showed that macrofauna was characterised by a low number of species of specialized organisms such as the crustaceans Eurydice naylori and Gastrosaccus spp. and the polychaetes Ophelia bicornis and Scolelepis squamata. The distribution and abundance of macrofauna were clearly affected by exposure degree and emersion time. The combined monitoring of benthic macrofauna and pore waters chemistry allowed us to estimate (1) the macrofauna oxygen uptake, calculated with a standard allometric relationship using biomass data, and (2) the total benthic oxygen uptake, calculated from the oxygen deficit measured in pore waters. This revealed that benthic macrofauna respiration represented a variable but low (<10%) contribution to the total benthic oxygen consumption. This suggests that oxygen was mainly consumed by microbial respiration.
•Pore waters oxygenation was studied conjointly to seasonal monitoring of macrofauna.•Macrofauna was characterized by a few specialized species.•Macrofaunal respiration represented less than 10% of total benthic O2 consumption.

La historia de la reina Eurídice de Macedonia da inicio a lo que, con los años, se convertirá en una constelación de soberanas helenísticas que disputarán el trono a sus maridos e hijos y que ...concluye con la famosa Cleopatra VII. El presente artículo comienza por señalar algunos puntos de importancia para la comprensión del poder femenino antiguo: por principio revisa los procesos ideológicos que conllevaron a la construcción social del patriarcado, para luego analizar brevemente el papel de las mujeres en Macedonia y de las reinas en particular con las personas de las primeras princesas y su posible vínculo con la religión y, merced a ésta, con el poder. Se procede al estudio de la personalidad de Eurídice, madre de Filipo II, desde las teorías con respecto a su origen ilirio, su matrimonio con Amintas y la necesidad que de aquél pudo tener el rey, para concluir con su papel en la conjura de Ptolomeo de Aloro y su rostro como madre y soberana que inaugura el interés de las mujeres por el poder en Macedonia.
The story of Queen Eurydice of Macedon begins over the years
that become a constellation of Hellenistic Queens who will challenge the
throne of their husbands and sons, and that ends with the famous Cleopatra
VII. This article starts to denote some important points about the understanding
of the ancient female power, first reviewing to the ideological process
that build social construction of the Patriarchy, next, to the briefly analysis of
the women’s role in Macedon, and in particular with the first princesses, and
their possible attachment with the religion, and by this, with the power. Finally,
this article study Eurydice’s personality Philip II mother, from the theories
about her Illyrian origin to her marriage with Amyntas III, and the necessity
that he maybe has to this engagement. At last, it examine Eurydice’s role in
the conspiracy of Ptolemy of Alorus, and her maternity and sovereignty that
open the interest of women for the power in Macedon.

J. M. Coetzee’s The Master of Petersburg (1994) is a text about a father (Dostoevsky) mourning the death of his son. I am interested in the presence and meaning of the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice in ...the novel, compared to the meaning of the myth in R. M. Rilke’s poem “Orpheus. Eurydice. Hermes.” (1904). I read the unaccomplished encounter between Orpheus and Eurydice as a story that portrays the failed intersubjectity plot of Coetzee’s novel(s). Following Blanchot’s reading of the myth, I examine the contrasting Orphean and Eurydicean conducts – Orpheus desiring but, at the same time, destroying the other and Eurydice declining the other’s approach. I argue that Orpheus’s and Eurydice’s contrasting behaviours can be looked at as manifestations of a failure of love, one for its violence, the other for its neglect, and thus the presence of the myth in The Master of Petersburg is meaningful in what it says about the theme of intersubjectivity in Coetzee’s oeuvre.
Critics have observed that Beren and Lúthien’s tale is a Christian retelling of the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice. The “Harrowing of Hell” tradition is widespread in Italy as attested by the mosaic of ...San Marco among others, but it is in France that the Ovid Moralized reconnects it to Orpheus who descended into the Underworld to save Eurydice (an already late antique parallel) and therefore attests a happy ending version of the story that can be found in medieval England and also in various classical sources, perhaps even in the original legend of Orpheus. The apocryphal Harrowing is also a recurring motif in the Anglo-Saxon and Middle English religious poetry that Tolkien studied. In short, Tolkien has a wealth of precedents in giving his Orpheus and Eurydice, i.e. Beren and Lúthien, a happy ending.

A comprehensive linguistic study of the functional features of the linguistic and communicative-pragmatic organization of narrative in text materials posted on the Internet platform is presented. ...Particular attention is paid to how the interpenetration of the narrative and lyrical principles occurs within one work. The material for the research was the text of the hip-hop opera “Orpheus & Eurydice” posted on the re-source “Yandex.Music”. A complex technique of interpretation of narrative strategies based on the methods of functional-stylistic, communicative-pragmatic and lexical-semantic analysis was used. The question is raised about the peculiarities of the functioning of the lyric text within the narrative and about their relationship. The role played by the mythologization of the narrative text is shown in the article. The novelty of the research is seen in the fact that the author describes the relationship be-tween narrative and lyricism in the work. The question of establishing the determinants of hip-hop narrative is raised. The structure of a narrative text with elements of lyricism is considered. The results of the analysis of the peculiarities of the linguistic embodiment of the narrators and actants are presented. The author dwells on the communicative-functional structure of the studied text, describing the specific functions of the narrative with fragments of lyricism. A model for determining the leading type of cognitive modeling (narrative or lyrics) through the functional and linguopragmatic study of the hip-hop text is proposed.
Within the frame of different research projects, a large number of sites at the Belgian Continental Shelf (BCS) have been sampled for the macrobenthos between 1994 and 2000. These samples cover a ...diverse range of habitats: from the sandy beaches to the open sea, from the gullies between the sandbanks to the tops of the sandbanks, and from clay to coarse sandy sediments. To investigate the large-scale spatial distribution of the macrobenthos of the Belgian Continental Shelf, the data of all these research projects—728 samples—were combined and analysed. By means of several multivariate techniques, 10 sample groups with similar macrobenthic assemblage structure were distinguished. Each sample group is found in a particular physico-chemical environment and has a specific species composition. Four sample groups differ drastically, both in habitat and species composition, and are considered to represent four macrobenthic communities: (1) the muddy fine sand
Abra alba–
Mysella bidentata community is characterized by high densities and diversity; (2) the
Nephtys cirrosa community occurs in well-sorted sandy sediments and is characterized by low densities and diversity; (3) very low densities and diversity typify the
Ophelia limacina–
Glycera lapidum community, which is found in coarse sandy sediments and (4) the
Eurydice pulchra–
Scolelepis squamata community is typical for the upper intertidal zone of sandy beaches. These macrobenthic communities are not isolated from each other, but are linked through six transitional species assemblages. The transition between the
A. alba–
M. bidentata community and the
N. cirrosa community is characterized by a reduction in the mud content and is dominated by
Magelona johnstoni. The transition between the
N. cirrosa and the
O. limacina–
G. lapidum community is distinctive by decreasing densities and coincides with a gradual transition between medium and coarse sandy sediments. From the
N. cirrosa to the
E. pulchra–
S. squamata community, transitional species assemblages related to the transition from the subtidal to the intertidal environment were found. Each community or transitional species assemblages was found over a specific range along the onshore–offshore gradient, four types can be discerned: (1) almost restricted to the near-shore area, but possible wider distribution; (2) distributed over the full onshore–offshore gradient; (3) restricted to the near-shore area and (4) restricted to the sandy beach environment. The diversity pattern on the BCS follows this division, with species rich and poor assemblages in the near-shore area to only species poor assemblages more offshore. The distribution and diversity patterns are linked to the habitat type, distinguished by median grain size and mud content.

In this article, I critically engage Adriana Cavarero’s account of uniqueness via an analysis of her work on narrativity and violence. I suggest there is an ambivalence in Cavarero’s account of ...uniqueness: Cavarero argues both that uniqueness is susceptible to destruction, and that it cannot finally be annihilated. To make this clear I use Cavarero’s account to read a narrative offered by Miklós Nyiszli, of a woman who survived an Auschwitz gas chamber. I contrast this to Cavarero’s reading of Eurydice and Orpheus, arguing that the ambivalence in Cavarero’s account can be resolved by thinking an excess proper to uniqueness.
