No. of bitstreams: 1 Avancini_RitaMariaPereira_M.pdf: 3969485 bytes, checksum: a69e9c937e04cea1b5e8f1041b1f12eb (MD5) Previous issue date: 1984 / Resumo: Neste estudo foram investigados alguns aspectos básicos da biologia reprodutiva de C. putoria mosca varejeira, da família Calliphoridae, de introdução recente no Brasil. As moscas foram mantidas em gaiolas de criação sob dieta padrão composta por fígado bovino cru (3 horas/dia) e água à vontade. Constatou-se que são necessários, no mínimo 6 dias para que as fêmeas tenham seus folículos ovarianos totalmente desenvolvidos o que ocorre de maneira sincrôni-ca. Este desenvolvimento é possível quando a fêmea recebe dieta protéica adequada, pois do contrário não se inicia a deposição de vitelo nos folículos. Portanto, sob dieta constituída por açúcar e água, C. putoria manifestou-se como a nautógena. Porém, mesmo após um período prolongado sob dieta aproteica, C. putoria manteve seu potencial reprodutivo, pois desenvolveu normalmente os folículos quando passou ter acesso ao fígado.Esta espécie foi capaz de desenvolver os folículos da segunda camada mesmo quando os primeiros não tinham ainda sido ovipostos, multiplicando dessa forma o mero de ovos a ser deixados numa postura. Os fatos acima mencionados podem ter uma ampla repercussão nas populações naturais, pois se aí também ocorrerem, sabemos que: em ausência de matéria orgânica protéica, as fêmeas não desenvolvem ovos, mas que quando o alimento volta a existir, o processo é retomado e, conseqüentemente, novos indivíduos surgirão; além disto, em ausência de condições ideais para oviposição, o estoque dos folícu-los maduros irá sendo multiplicado. Os ovários são do tipo meroístico politrófico contando em média com 76 folículos por ovário. Existem 15 células tróficas por folículo e o núcleo destas pode apresentar uma ploidia final de até 13 vezes a inicial. estimativa feita a partir das áreas das projeções dos núcleos obtidas de montagem total com coloração de Feulgen. No início do processo de multiplicação desse material nuclear são visíveis cromossomos politênicos típicos. Esses núcleos a-presentam um corpúsculo de DNA bastante evidente o qual não encontramos descrito para outras espécies da família. C putoria apresenta desenvolvimento ovariano bastante semelhante ao que ocorre para a espécie na Tan-zânia (África oriental) e com ela produz descendentes férteis.Este fato nos fez pensar na hipótese de sua origem a partir da África oriental e não da ocidental como anteri-ormente suposto. Julgamos que com o presente estudo serão oferecidos subsídios para bem fundamentar futuros programas de controle dessa espécie-praga / Abstract: This study was carried out to investigate some basic aspects concerning the reproductive biology of a blowfly, Chrydomya putoria (Ca11iphoridae) which has recently been introduced in Brazil.Adu1t flies were kept in cages and were fed on fresh cattle liver during 3 hours a day and water "adlibitum".Results showed that females presented a synchronic development of ovarian follicles, a process which took 6 days at least to be completed.No yolk deposition in the follicles was started out unless a proper protein diet has been supplied. Therefore, C. putoria was an anautogenous species when fed only with sugar and water. However C.putoria maintained its reproductive potential presenting normal follicle growth when liver was available even after along time under an aproteic diet. The concerned species was able to develop the second batch of eggs when the first one had not been laid yet. Thus, the arnount of eggs of a certain oviposition could be multiplied. Great changes in populations structure can be expected if the facts above also occur in the field since females do not complete oogenesis without proteic matter, but when it is present again in the field, eggs can be produced and, consequently, new flies will be risen. In addition, when ideal conditions for egg laying do not occur, there will be mature follicle batches multiplication. In this species, ovaries are classified as meroistic polytrophic, each one presenting 76 follicles in average. There are 15 nurse cells in a follicle and their nucleous may present a final ploidy 13 times greater than the initial one, which was estimated in view of the nucleous areas projections obtained in Feulgen-stained whole mounts. Typical polytenic chromosomes can be seen at the begining of this nuclear material multiplication. Those nuclei present a very remarkable DNA body which we did not find described for other alliphoridae species. C. putoria ovarian developrnent pattern is very similar to that of Tanzania (Eastern Africa) species. When these two species are crossed, fertile progeny is produced. This leads to the hypothesis of its origin from the Eastern Africa instead of the Western one as previously described. / Mestrado / Mestre em Biologia

Rudolph Walton : one Tlingit man’s journey through stormy seas Sitka, Alaska, 1867-1951

Shales, Joyce Walton 05 1900 (has links)
The history of contact with Europeans for Native Americans and the Tlingit people in particular has been well documented as one of extreme pain, suffering, and injustice. It was "survival time" for the Tlingit and very difficult choices had to be made. The life of one Tlingit man, Rudolph Walton, born in Sitka, Alaska in 1867, illuminates this critical time in the history of the Tlingit people. This dissertation is ah exploration of the interplay between competing cultures and interests and it is a quest to understand who Rudolph Walton was and how his life and the choices he made are connected to the larger historic themes and cross-cultural issues in Alaska Native education and religious life. In addition to providing a look at history and at cultural change through an individual's life, choices and experiences, this dissertation is also about the connection between my ancestors' choices and the impact those choices had on the survival of a people. It is at once a macro view and a micro view of the impact of history on Indian people. After the purchase of Alaska by the United States traditional Tlingit life changed forever. The Tlingit were forced on a daily basis to balance demands and pressures made by various Christian religious groups and the U. S. government. They also had to contend with the prejudice of the average American citizen. Most Native American history has been limited to the use of records written by Europeans and Americans. Our understanding of that history is limited because the voice of the Native American is rarely heard. This dissertation fills a gap in the history of Southeast Alaska through an examination of the life of Rudolph Walton. The life of Mr. Walton is important because he left us with a unique set of documents which help us to understand the difficulties he had to face as a Tlingit man during a critical time in the history of Southeast Alaska. / Education, Faculty of / Educational Studies (EDST), Department of / Graduate

Hudebníci ve službách Rudolfa II. (1576-1612): rekonstrukce na základě císařských účetních knih / The Musical Entourage of Rudolph II (1576-1612) reconstructed from the Imperial Accounting Ledgers

Rossi, Michaela January 2016 (has links)
of the Dissertation The Musical Entourage of Rudolf II (1576-1612) reconstructed from the Imperial Accounting Ledgers Michaela Žáčková Rossi (2016, Supervisor: doc. PhDr. Petr Daněk Ph.D.) The proposed dissertation is undertaken as an attempt to make accessible the payments of the imperial court under Rudolf II concerning its musical life. Quite a century ago Albert Smijers published payments to the imperial musicians, but only to them of the chapel, while the other categories were considered unsystematically; but even among the "trometter", "kammermusici" and "servants on two and more horses" we find excellent composers. This dissertation, using the known sources and on the basis of new heuristics in the State Archives of Vienna, brings for the first time a complete list of all musicians of the Rudolf's court, including the period, function and wages development of their stay. Thanks to the extensive lists and graphs, it also present the specialization and career evolution of the Imperial musicians, number and quality of their extraordinary payments, bonuses etc. The conception of a first global view on the Rudolfine musical entourage in Prague will be complemented in a forthcoming monograph by a complete list of (Gnadengeld), it means "grace payments" to the musicians for their music dedications...

Die resepsie van Anna Rudolph se Afrikaanse kinderliedere deur Afrikaanssprekers (Afrikaans)

Liebenberg, Irma 27 July 2012 (has links)
In die 1970’s (voor die ontwikkeling van gevorderde klanktegnologie) was Afrikaanssprekers gedwing om hulle self te vermaak. Volksliedjies en ander Afrikaanse liedjies is dikwels onbegeleid of met eenvoudige begeleiding gesing. In skole is kinders aan verpligte sangonderrig blootgestel en Afrikaanse kinderliedjies soos dié van Anna Rudolph is landwyd deur Afrikaanssprekers gesing. Vandag (2011) word hierdie liedjies baie selde gehoor, en sonder “backtracks”, mikrofone en klankversterkers vind feitlik geen kindersang meer plaas nie. Die doel van die studie is gemotiveer deur twee moontlike negatiewe gevolge van foutiewe aanvangsonderrig in ag te neem: die huidige (2011) positiewe resepsie van onaanvaarbaar geïntoneerde en swak gekomponeerde populêre liedere, en baie Afrikaanssprekers se skynbare onvermoë om te kan sing. Deur op die vertrekpunt van musiekonderrig en spesifiek die aanleer van Afrikaanse kinderliedjies soos dié van Anna Rudolph te fokus, is resepsie-aspekte van Afrikaanse kinderliedere uitgewys. Die literatuurstudie het die bestudering van Afrikaanssprekers se sangkultuur vanaf die 1970’s tot vandag (2011) en die resepsie van kinderliedere deur kinders behels. ’n Kwalitatiewe navorsingsontwerp is gebruik. Verskeie onderhoude is gevoer. 45 van Rudolph se kinderliedere is geëvalueer volgens erkende kriteria vir kinderliedere en ’n katalogus van die kultuurbydrae van Rudolph is saamgestel. Die uitvoer van ’n veldproef wat die samestelling van ’n nuwe Anna Rudolph-CD en -bladmusiek insluit, onderskei hierdie navorsing van enige vorige soortgelyke studie. Probleme ondervind tydens die studie sluit die finansiering van die produksie van die CD en die voortdurende bemarking en verkope daarvan in. Die saamstel van die katalogus van Anna Rudolph se kultuurbydrae het ’n uitgebreide soektog behels en is steeds onvolledig, aangesien Rudolph op versoek en soos wat geleenthede hulle voorgedoen het, onverpoos gekomponeer het en die komposisies dus nie almal gepubliseer is nie. Baie van die gepubliseerde komposisies se publikasiedatums kon ook nie opgespoor word nie. Die bevindinge waartoe geraak is, toon die vervanging van die Afrikaanse sangkultuur van die 1970’s met ’n elektroniese luisterkultuur (2011). Hierdie transformasie het oor ’n tydperk van 40 jaar plaasgevind. Daar bestaan reeds ’n hele geslag nuwe Afrikaanse ouers met klein kindertjies wat nie kan of wil sing nie. Dit bring mee dat die resepsie van baie Afrikaanse kinderliedere soos wat dit in musiekbundels verskyn kommerwekkend negatief is. Die evaluering van ’n seleksie van Anna Rudolph se kinderliedere het getoon dat die musiek van die 1970’s steeds vandag gebruik kan word, alhoewel sommige lirieke vernuwe moet word. Die verpakking van die liedjies in CD-formaat in plaas van musiekbundels is van deurslaggewende belang. Die navorsing met veral die suksesvolle uitvoering van die veldproef waartydens 1500 Anna Rudolph-musiekstelle (met opnames uit die 1970’s) verkoop is, bring die navorser by die volgende aanbeveling: Die hernude verwekking van ’n Afrikaanse sanglus moet nou dringend by klein kindertjies begin. Vir die strewe na hierdie doelwit moet daar deurlopend CD’s van Afrikaanse kinderliedjies vervaardig word wat gebaseer is op die volgende praktiese prosedure: <ul> <li> Die redigering van sekere Anna Rudolph-kinderliedjies asook dié van ander kinderliedkomponiste (van die 1970’s);</li> <li> Die krities-wetenskaplike evaluering (deur musiekkenners) van bestaande kinderliedere aan die hand van erkende kinderliedkriteria;</li> <li> Die implementering van ’n kinderpaneel om kinderliedere (wat voldoen aan die wetenskaplike kinderliedkriteria) te resepteer vir gebruik in skoolverband en by die ouerhuis;</li> <li> Die opneem van bogenoemde kinderliedjies op CD’s in ’n eietydse idioom en met gebruik van kindersangertjies en kinderkore as kunstenaars; en</li> <li> Die effektiewe verspreiding van sulke CD’s na Afrikaanse skole.</li></ul> ENGLISH : During the 1970s, before the development of advanced sound technology, Afrikaans speakers were compelled to entertain themselves. This included singing songs. Folk songs and other Afrikaans songs were often sung, either unaccompanied or with simple accompaniments. In schools children were exposed to compulsory tuition in singing, and children’s songs with Afrikaans texts, such as those by Anna Rudolph, were sung throughout the country. Currently (2011) these songs are seldom heard and almost no singing by children takes place without backtracks, microphones and sound amplifiers. The motivation for this study was the consideration of two results that could be regarded as negative due to incorrect initial instruction: the current (2011) positive reception of unacceptable intonation and badly-composed popular songs, and the apparent inability of many Afrikaans-speaking people to sing. By focussing on the starting point of music education, specifically the learning of Afrikaans children’s songs such as those written by Anna Rudolph, aspects of the reception of Afrikaans children’s songs were identified. The literature review covered studies of the singing habits of Afrikaans speakers from the 1970s until the present (2011) and the reception of children’s songs by children. A qualitative research design was used. Various interviews were conducted. 45 of Rudolph’s children’s songs were evaluated using recognised criteria for such songs and a catalogue of Rudolph’s cultural contribution was compiled. In the conducting of a field experiment a new CD of children’s songs by Anna Rudolph, plus sheet music, was produced, and this aspect sets the research apart from any previous, similar studies. Problems that were experienced during the study included the financing of the production of the CD as well as its ongoing marketing and sales. The compilation of the catalogue of Anna Rudolph’s cultural contribution required extensive research and it remains incomplete because Rudolph composed incessantly on request as well as for specific occasions. Consequently, not all the compositions were published. It was also not possible to ascertain the dates of publication of all the compositions. The conclusions reached indicate that the Afrikaans singing culture of the 1970s has been supplanted by an electronic listening culture (2011). This transformation has taken place over a period of 40 years. There is, therefore, a whole new generation of Afrikaans-speaking parents with young children who either cannot or will not sing. This results in a disturbingly negative reception of Afrikaans children’s songs that are published only as sheet music. The evaluation of a selection of Anna Rudolph’s children’s songs showed that this music from the 1970s can still be used today, although some lyrics would need to be updated. The packaging of the songs in a CD format instead of as sheet music would be of cardinal importance. The research gleaned from the successful conducting of the field experiment during which 1500 music sets of songs by Anna Rudolph (containing recordings made during the 1970s) were sold leads the researcher to the following recommendation: A new desire to sing in Afrikaans should be inculcated in young children as a matter of urgency. To attain this objective CDs of Afrikaans children’s songs should continually be produced, and these should be based on the following practical procedures: <ul> <li> The editing of selected Anna Rudolph children’s songs, and also those of other composers of children’s songs (from the 1970s);</li> <li> The critical and scientific evaluation of existing children’s songs (by music experts) according to recognised criteria for children’s songs;</li> <li> The formation of a reception panel of children to evaluate children’s songs (which satisfy the criteria for children’s songs) for use in schools and at home;</li> <li> The recording of such children’s songs on CDs in a contemporary idiom sung by children’s voices and children’s choirs; and</li> <li> The effective distribution of such CDs to Afrikaans schools.</li></ul> Additional information available on a CD, DVD stored at the Merensky Library on Level 3 Copyright / Dissertation (MMus)--University of Pretoria, 2012. / Music / unrestricted

Rudolf II. a jeho doba z pohledu latinské barokní historiografie (Bohuslav Balbín, Tomáš Pešina z Čechorodu, Jan Florian Hammerschmid aj.) / Rudolph II. and his age from the view of the Latin baroque historiography (Bohuslav Balbín, Tomáš Pešina z Čechorodu, Jan Florian Hammerschmid etc.)

Čepelák, Jiří Augustin January 2013 (has links)
The thesis deals with the works of the Czech baroque in Latin writing authors of non- Catholic and Catholic confession: Pavel Stránský (1583-1657), Jan Amos Komenský (1592- 1670), Jan Laetus-Veselský (1609-1659), Julius Solimanus (1595-1639), Bohuslav Balbín (1621-1688), Tomáš Pešina of Čechorod (1629-1680) and Jan Florián Hammerschmidt (1652- 1735). The focus of the thesis is (apart from the comparism of the point of view of the authors on personality and reign of Rudolph II. with the aspect on the ideal of the sovereign at that time) the description of their life and work as well, because some of them haven't been subject of interest of the researchers so far. The thesis brings also the stylistic and content escription of their historiographical works and selected passages from them are edited in the final part of the work.
