There are limited writings about sick individuals and their diseases in the Synoptic Gospels. In my thesis I have studied the etiology of diseases, the sick individuals, and how their manifestations of disease convey an understanding of their situation. I have also studied differences between the three Synoptic Gospels in this regard. By using the method of a literary analytical approach, I ha

Gyalolechia fruticum, a new epiphytic species with a Mediterranean-Macaronesian distribution, is described. It differs in molecular data and in ecology from two closely related calcicolous species, G. luteococcinea and G. marmorata, both formerly called Caloplaca subochracea auct. The new species grows on coastal shrubs (rarely on wood), accompanied by species-rich communities of maritime epiphyti

A question that is asked far to seldom is what it means to be a good leader. The answer is not all that simple. It is a comlex and multi-faceted question that varies between the values and what ethical perspective you choose to have. As the title indicates, this essay has one particular ethical-theoretical perspective in focus, virtue ethics. According to the virtue ethics perspective a good polit

SeaWiFS satellite data were employed to demonstrate how the biological conditions in marine and coastal waters may be characterized using the concentration of chlorophyll-alpha (chl-alpha) and dissolved organic carbon (DOC) as the leading parameters. In marine waters the standard algorithms from the SeaWiFS Data Analysis System (SeaDAS) package were used to derive the concentrations, whereas in co

The aim of the essay was to present the Stockholm Film Workshop (Filmverkstan, 1973–2001) and its significance as a transnational site of film production. The films and the filmmaking at the workshop are considered as part of a minor cinema film practice in David E. James’s sense. James’s theory is complemented by returning to Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari’s original concept of minor literatur

Species of the Botanophila helviana species group are small, blackish anthomyiids known from temperate to subarctic (northern/elevated) parts of the Holarctic Region. Adult flies are anthophilous, obtaining pollen and nectar from various flowering plants. Preliminary evidence suggests that the larvae may attack developing seed heads of Ranunculus (Ranunculaceae). The male and female terminalia are

In 2013, American poet and academic Ange Mlinko published her third volume: Marvelous Things Overheard. As in her second volume, Shoulder Season, 2010, Mlinko mingles epochs and geographies in an effort to listen to and comprehend those human voices resounding mainly from conflictual areas. There is no communication without memory. That is why the poetess embodies languages, sorrows, happy feeling

Cultural elaboration and differentiation flourished-witness the extraordinary wealth and variety of social and cultural forms across Africa today. Political experiments included the construction of polyethnic polities, the emergence of cities and empires, the elaboration of priestly and royal power. In the context of a Church in construction, it is not surprising that the first phase of Christian

Current visual text analysis approaches rely on sophisticated processing pipelines. Each step of such a pipeline potentially amplifies any uncertainties from the previous step. To ensure the comprehensibil- ity and interoperability of the results, it is of paramount importance to clearly communicate the uncertainty not only of the output but also within the pipeline. In this paper, we characterize

Engineering energy storage/extraction for geoenergy applications (e.g., geothermal energy extraction, CO2 and/or Hydrogen storage) requires a very good knowledge of subsurface heterogeneities. One of the principal factors that influences the response of the underground system is the continuously evolving pore networks of the targeted rocks. This work aims to understand the pore network of a natura

The notion of error plays an important role, this article argues, in Per Olov Enquist’s ground-breaking documentary novel Legionärerna (The Legionnaires) (1968), which depicts the controversial Swedish extradition of Baltic soldiers in January 1946. In terms of the plot (re)constructed by Enquist, Swedish politicians and Baltic soldiers as well as the novel’s investigator, a kind of alter ego of t

This chapter focuses on ‘theatre’ in its plural forms and its intermedial modalities. It aims to link concepts stemming from ancient philosophy and post-dramatic theatre with modern intermedial theory. The interaction of space with the material and the technological modalities also makes surprising sound effects possible. In general, theatre grants or attributes agency to both humans and non-human

The tension between Jews and Gentiles is a well-recorded and pregnant debate within the field of biblical exegesis today. One of the biblical passages that directly relates to this special situation, often labelled the ‘incident of Antioch’, is Gal 2.11-14. In this passage Peter (Cephas), an early disciple of the Jesus movement that regularly ate and drank with the Gentiles, is told to draw back a

Denna uppsats syftar till att analysera förutsättningarna för att förbjuda förflyttningar av asylsökande inom det gällande Dublinsystemet, samt hur kompatibelt den europeiska kommissionens förslag för en Dublin IV Förordning är med mänskliga rättigheter. Dublinsystemet har till syfte att fördela skyldigheten att hantera asylansökningar mellan medlemsstaterna inom EU till en ansvarig medlemsstat. This thesis aims to analyse the prohibitions of transfers of asylum seekers in the Dublin System, and how compatible the Commission’s Proposal for a Dublin IV Regulation is with human rights law. The Dublin System is meant to allocate responsibility between Member States regarding asylum applications. After the responsible Member State has been decided according to certain criteria, the asylum see
