The Austrian art critic Ludwig Hevesi wrote the article "Gustav Klimt und die Malmosaik" in August of 1907 after seeing two separate exhibitions with paintings by the Austrian artist Gustav Klimt. The first exhibition had three easel paintings and the second, three decorative ceiling paintings. Despite the obvious differences between the two types of paintings, Hevesi noted a stylistic continuity between them. He created the term, Malmosaik, applicable to both easel and decorative painting, in order to discuss this continuity in his written criticisms. This thesis examines the applicability of the Malmosaik in Klimt's Faculty Paintings, Beethoven Frieze and Stoclet Frieze, and its impact on traditional notions of medium purity in turn-of-the-century Vienna. The Malmosaik, as it developed in Klimt's work, is discussed here as an innovative, non-medium specific aesthetic unique to Vienna.

Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is a basic staple food crop in Tanzania. Cassava mosaic disease (CMD) caused by cassava mosaic geminiviruses (CMGs) constitutes a major limiting factor to cassava production in the country. This study was undertaken to characterize the CMGs occurring in Tanzania using molecular techniques and to map their geographical distribution to generate information on which the formulation of control measures can be based. Using Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) and Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP) for analysis of CMGs DNA-A genomes, different CMGs were found to be associated with CMD. Higher molecular diversity was observed among East African cassava mosaic viruses (EACMVs) than African cassava mosaic viruses (ACMVs), which was confirmed later by complete nucleotide sequence analysis. In addition to EACMV and ACMV isolates, two isolates of EACMV Cameroon virus (EACMCV) were found in Tanzania. These were confirmed to be strains of EACMCV Cameroon, originally described in Cameroon, West Africa and here named EACMCV- [TZ1] and EACMCV-[TZ7]. They had high (92%) overall DNA-A nucleotide sequence identity and EACMCV-[TZ1] was widespread in the southern part of the country. A subgenomic DNA form of CMG that appeared to be truncated was identified in a CMD-infected cassava plant. It was confirmed upon sequence analysis to be a defect of EACMV DNA-A and had a capacity of attenuating symptoms when coinoculated with wild-type EACMV. In addition, this study revealed for the first time the presence of two novel non-geminivirus single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) sub-genomic molecules associated with CMG infection. They were shown to be dependent on CMG for replication and movement within the plants, confirming their status as satellite molecules named here as satDNA-II and satDNA-III. When present in coinfection with CMGs, they enhance symptoms and can break high levels of resistance in a cassava landrace. Finally a simple, inexpensive technique is described of archiving, transporting and recovering plant DNA for downstream geminivirus characterisation. / Thesis (PhD)--University of Pretoria, 2007. / Microbiology and Plant Pathology / Unrestricted

No name seems to have been associated with more systematic criticism in regard to political and social thought during the magisterial Reformation than that of the Old Testament lawgiver, Moses. Beginning early in the Reformation era, rejections of the need for Mosaic judicial laws are varied, broad, and explicit. In some cases, such as Luther’s and Melanchthon’s attacks on Andreas Karlstadt, alleged proponents of Mosaic civil law are given by name. In other cases they are anonymous. But what is less clear is whether anyone actually held the views attributed. After a review of literature of Melanchthon, Jacob Strauss, Karlstadt, Zwingli, Thomas Müntzer, the peasants of the Peasant War (1524–5), Luther, the Anabaptists of Münster, Calvin, and others, it is confirmed that none of the implicated writers between key dates of 1520 and 1536 actually held the view of exclusive Mosaic Law attributed, particularly by Calvin. Other motivations must have been involved in the accusations. An analysis of literature from Luther and Calvin as well as the historical background of the period makes it clear that social, political, and economic pressures influenced the magisterial reformers in regard to crucial theological expressions in which they strongly rejected the need for Mosaic civil law in society. The reformers in question restrained or altered their expressions according to the pressures of external circumstances - most importantly war and rebellion spurred by so-called “radical” reformers. As alleged theological positions were weaved with reports and denunciations of violence, Mosaic Law emerged as an allegedly dangerous ideological force, the accusation of which could marginalize opponents. In this crucible of history, in which the long shadows of rebellion and war were cast over Mosaic Law during the mid-1520s and mid-1530s, we find both Luther and Calvin (among others) writing their most vehement denunciations of Mosaic Law. Particularly, we find young Calvin, exiled, sitting down to write his denunciation of “some” who rejected the validity of a commonwealth unless it relied exclusively upon Mosaic civil polity. Luther, Calvin, and others thus warned against applying Moses in the civil realm and linked his laws with sedition and rebellion (even though the association was not accurate in any given case) mainly for their own utilitarian causes. Both Calvin and Luther subsequently employ the doctrine of two kingdoms in distancing themselves and their movements from the need for Mosaic laws in the civil realm, as well as to impede opponents who would use civil power to enforce reforms contrary to them, and yet both act inconsistently when enforcement of the first table of the Decalogue would favor their own reforms. As well, both go on to advance and approve of non-biblical civil laws more invasive and extensive than Mosaic polity would have allowed - including the execution of Anabaptists - all the while denouncing alleged proponents of Moses as dangerous, seditious, barbaric, murderous, and bloodthirsty. / Thesis (PhD)--University of Pretoria, 2012. / Dogmatics and Christian Ethics / unrestricted

This master's thesis deals with systems which are used for supervisory control and data acquisition. The theoretical part concerns with the single systems and their comparison. The practical section describes the designed program for control of smart wiring FOXTROT. The visualization and its remote control were created in this program. The result of practical part is a lab manual.
