This paper describes the skeleton of Canis lupus found in Layer 7 of Grotta Mora Cavorso (Latium, central Italy), correlated with the MIS 3. Research on the deposition dynamics of this find is still ...in progress, but the action of human or other predators can be excluded. This specimen consists of a near complete articulated skeleton, lacking only the calvarium. The age at death was estimated at around six years old. Preliminary morphometric analyses and comparisons with samples of Italian Late Pleistocene wolf and extant Apennine wolf (C. lupus italicus) remains, show that the dimensions of the teeth and long bones are among the biggest known from the Italian Late Pleistocene and larger than the extant Apennine wolf.
Cette étude porte sur un squelette de Canis lupus retrouvé dans le Niveau 7 de la Grotta Mora Cavorso (Latium, Italie centrale), corrélé avec le MIS 3. Les dynamiques de dépôt sont actuellement en cours d’étude, bien qu’on puisse exclure l’action de l’homme ou d’autres prédateurs. Ce spécimen, auquel il manque la calotte crânienne, était en connexion anatomique. L’âge au décès est de six ans environ. Des analyses morphométriques préliminaires et des comparaisons effectuées avec d’autres loups du Pléistocène supérieur italien, ainsi que sur un échantillon de loup actuel des Apennins (C. lupus italicus), ont montré que les dimensions des dents et des os longs sont parmi les plus grandes dans le Pléistocène supérieur italien et plus grandes que chez le loup actuel des Apennins.
Eesti väldete fonoloogiline esitus on huvi pakkunud väga paljudele teadlastele ja olnud inspiratsiooniks fonoloogiateooria arendamisel. Artiklis võrdlen erinevaid moorateoreetilisi vältekäsitlusi ...väldete foneetilise kirjeldusega. Foneetiliste faktidega sobib kõige paremini käsitlus, mille järgi III välte rõhuline silp täidab kogu jala, kuid I ja II välte puhul koosneb jalg kahest silbist. III välte silbi lõpu ja I välte jala lõpu pikenemist seletab prominentse moora paiknemine nimetatud positsioonides. Prominentsed moorad on vajalikud ka isuri keele Soikola murde fonoloogilises kirjelduses.Abstract. Külli Prillop: Segment quantity, syllable quantity and foot quantity – different facets of one phenomenon. Phonological representation of Estonian quantity degrees have aroused the interest of many researchers and provided a stimulus for developing phonological theory. In this article, I compare various moraic representations of the quantity degrees with the phonetical description of the quantities. Phonetical facts show best compatibility with the treatment according to which the stressed syllable of Q3 fills the whole foot, whereas in the case of Q1 and Q2 the foot consists of two syllables. The syllable-final lengthening of Q3 and the foot-final lengthening of Q1 can be explained by the presence of the strong mora in the corresponding positions. I show that strong moras are also necessary for the phonological description of the Soikola Ingrian.Keywords: Estonian, Ingrian, Soikola, quantity, overlength, foot-final lengthening, strong mora, moraic theory
ABSTRACT
In this article, I argue that Terézia Mora's 2004 novel Alle Tage foregrounds the Yugoslav wars, and the Kosovo intervention in particular, as significant events for processes of the Berlin ...Republic's political self‐fashioning in the late 1990s. I therefore contend that despite the text's more widely acknowledged global and delocalised aspects, Alle Tage is in fact a very local and ‘German’ text, directly engaging with the socio‐political contexts of the Berlin Republic. I start by addressing the ways in which the 1990s Balkan wars have been used to reposition questions of German identity in relation to its World War II past. I then examine and offer an alternative to the notion that Térezia Mora's novel Alle Tage is predominantly a global text by highlighting the text's inextricable embeddedness in discourses surrounding German identity in the 1990s. I do so by tracing the novel's simultaneous critiques of both the notion of a global, nomadic way of being as well as of essentialist conceptions of community such as a nation or ethnic belonging. As the fate of the novel's main character Abel illustrates, for Mora belonging is instead a matter of an embodied, experiential access to both one's past and present. I conclude by arguing that Mora's novel suggests that just like Abel, Germany cannot move beyond post‐war themes such as nationalism, war, and genocide without thereby committing violent acts of forgetting.
Terézia Moras Roman Alle Tage (2004) zeigt, dass die jugoslawischen Kriege, und die Kosovo‐Intervention insbesondere, sehr wichtig für Prozesse der politischen Selbstgestaltung in der Berliner Republik der späten 1990er Jahre waren. Ich argumentiere daher, dass Alle Tage trotz der im Text allgemein anerkannten globalen und delokalisierten Aspekte, auch ein sehr lokaler und ‘deutscher’ Text ist, der die sozialen und politischen Kontexte der Berliner Republik widerspiegelt. Ich beginne mit einer Zusammenfassung der Art und Weise in welcher die Balkankriege der 1990er Jahre in der Berliner Republik verwendet wurden, um Fragen der deutschen Identität in Bezug auf seine Vergangenheit und den Zweiten Weltkrieg neu zu positionieren. Dann biete ich eine Alternative zu der Auffassung an, dass Terézia Moras Roman Alle Tage ein überwiegend globaler Text sei, indem ich die Einbettung des Romans in Diskursen um die deutsche Identität Ende der 1990er Jahre hervorhebe. Dies mache ich, indem ich Moras Kritik sowohl an Vorstellungen eines globalen, nomadischen Seins wie auch an essentialistischen Vorstellungen von Gemeinschaft wie ‘Nation’ oder ethnischer Zugehörigkeit darlege. Wie das Schicksal des Protagonisten Abel zeigt, ist für Mora Gemeinschaft vielmehr Sache eines verkörperten, erlebten Zugangs sowohl zu der Vergangenheit als auch der Gegenwart. Wie ich abschlieend zeige, schlägt Moras Roman vor, dass Deutschland genauso wie Abel Nachkriegsthemen wie Nationalismus, Krieg und Völkermord ohne ein gewaltsames Vergessen so einfach nicht hinter sich lassen kann.
In the second half of the 1990s most olive regions in Spain raised the study for the adaptation of some olive cultivars to the various producing areas through a national network of trials. ...Specifically in Catalonia, three olive oil cultivar trials were established. In this paper are presented the results obtained in a trial, which was set in 1998 in Mora d’Ebre, south-west of the province of Tarragona, which included 12 cultivars. The trees were planted at a frame of 7×7 m (204 olive trees/ha). The main agronomic observations were carried out during an eleven year period (3rd to the 13th year of planting) and the fruit characteristics for a nine-years period (2003-2011). Outstanding cultivars are ‘Picual’ (37.4 kg/tree), ‘Picudo’ (36.7 kg/tree), ‘Empeltre’ (35.1 kg/tree) and ‘Arbequina’ (33.8 kg/tree). As far as their accumulated yield at the 13th year of planting, there exist significant differences: ‘Picual’ (183 kg/tree) is the most producing cultivar, followed by ‘Arbequina’ (171 kg/tree) and ‘Picudo’ (165 kg/tree) and finally ‘Empeltre’ and ‘Frantoio’ (about 150 kg/tree). The results of this trial show differences in the adaptation of some cultivars to the inland zone of Tarragona, where ‘Picual’, ‘Arbequina’, ‘Empeltre’ and ‘Frantoio’ have agronomically overpassed the other cultivars.
Six cross-modal lexical decision tasks with priming probed listeners’ processing of the geminate–singleton contrast in Bengali, where duration alone leads to phonemic contrast (pata ‘leaf’ vs. pat:a ...‘whereabouts’), in order to investigate the phonological representation of consonantal duration in the lexicon. Four form-priming experiments (auditory fragment primes and visual targets) were designed to investigate listeners’ sensitivity to segments of conflicting duration. Each prime derived from a real word (kʰɔm/gʰenː) was matched with a mispronunciation of the opposite duration (*kʰɔmː/*gʰen) and both were used to prime the full words kʰɔma (‘forgiveness’) and gʰenːa (‘disgust’) respectively. Although all fragments led to priming, the results showed an asymmetric pattern. The fragments of words with singletons mispronounced as geminates led to equal priming, while those with geminates mispronounced as singletons showed a difference. The priming effect of the real-word geminate fragment was significantly greater than that of its corresponding nonword singleton fragment. In two subsequent semantic priming tasks with full-word primes a stronger asymmetry was found: nonword geminates (*kʰɔmːa) primed semantically related words (marjona ‘forgiveness’) but singleton nonword primes (*gʰena) did not show priming. This overall asymmetry in the tolerance of geminate nonwords in place of singleton words is attributed to a representational mismatch and points towards a moraic representation of duration. While geminates require a mora which cannot be derived from singleton input, the additional information in geminate nonwords does not create a similar mismatch.
