Ce mémoire a pour sujet les œuvres réalisées à la fin du XVIIIe et au début du XIXe siècle par Johann Heinrich Füssli, inspirées de l'œuvre littéraire The Faerie Queene (1590-1596), du poète anglais Edmund Spenser. Au nombre de quinze, ces œuvres sont abordées en tant que corpus au sein de l'œuvre de Füssli. L'objectif du mémoire est d'étudier et de documenter, au moyen d'un catalogue raisonné, ces œuvres à sujets spensérien. Une étude stylistique et iconographique qui tient compte des stratégies formelles utilisées pour réaliser ces œuvres, mise en lien avec le contexte culturel, permet de les replacer dans l'ensemble de l'œuvre de Füssli et de la tradition théorique et esthétique à laquelle il est redevable. Le choix de Spenser comme thématique à illustrer, ainsi que le rapport entre les images et le texte, y sont également abordés en mettant l'accent sur la représentation discordante des genres sexuels chez le poète et le peintre. Cette discordance donne lieu à l'hypothèse défendue dans ce mémoire selon laquelle les œuvres de Füssli, ayant pour sujets The Faerie Queene d'Edmund Spenser, sont des œuvres à sujets littéraires pour lesquelles l'artiste fait preuve d'invention et dans lesquelles il exprime ses sentiments face au monde où il vit. Il ne s'agit donc pas d'illustrations, puisque ce terme sous-tend la possibilité d'un respect strict au texte. ______________________________________________________________________________ MOTS-CLÉS DE L’AUTEUR : Johann Heinrich Füssli (1741-1825), The Faerie Queene, Edmund Spenser, ut pictura poesis, œuvre à sujet littéraire, illustration, invention, sublime, gothic, études genrées.

La Promenade Vernet, partie intégrante du Salon de 1767, reflète bien la complexité de l'oeuvre du philosophe dans son intégralité car on peut observer des traits caractéristiques à plusieurs genres de texte tel que la fiction, l'essai et la critique. Le court texte est une « promenade » dans laquelle Diderot décrit avec maîtrise une série de sept « sites » sous prétexte de mettre en cause diverses sujets de nature philosophique et esthétique. Ce que le lecteur n'a pas d'accès — et arrive à apprendre seulement à la fin — est au fait que les descriptions des éléments des paysages ne font pas référence à sept campagnes, mais à sept tableaux d'un célèbre paysagiste français, Joseph Vernet. Pendant la « Promenade », Diderot et l'abbé, son interlocuteur et personnage fictif, débattent, dramatiquement, en longues journées, les convictions quant à l'art, à la position de l'homme dans le monde et aux moeurs. Cette recherche vise mettre en évidence les dispositifs rhétoriques utilisés par l'auteur, spécialement l'ekphrasis et le hiéroglyphe, tous les deux associés, directe ou indirectement, au rapport entre le verbal et l'imagerie (ut pictura poesis). Pour le développement de la recherche, des auteurs des époques variés sont utilisés, tel que Horace (18 a.C.), qui a inventé le terme ut pictura poesis ; Lessing (1768), qui a été fondamental au développement de la rhétorique ; et Lichtenstein (1994), dont l'oeuvre trace un parcours approfondi de l'histoire de la rhétorique visuelle et sur laquelle ce mémoire se base avec un certain accent. Dans le texte de Diderot, on remarque une importance significative de références classiques, ainsi, des articles qui éclairent-ils l'oeuvre de Diderot par ce point de vue ont été choisis pour constituer la recherche. À part cet apparat théorique, il est fait appel à textes composant l'oeuvre de Diderot qui ne font pas partie du Salon de 1767, ainsi que la Lettre sur les sourds et muets à l’usage de ceux qui entendent et qui parlent, dans laquelle on trouve l'expression « hiéroglyphe » pour la première fois. En plus des textes du critique philosophe, on se sert d'une riche fortune critique et essentiellement française qui s'applique à l'étude de l'oeuvre de Diderot, y compris Bukdahl (1980), Chouillet (1987), Starobinski (1991) et Delon (1995). Dans ce travail il est aussi possible de trouver une certaine exploration de l'esthétique et de la peinture, compte tenu de la nature plurielle du texte qui a été objet d'étude. Après cette recherche, on peut avoir une compréhension plus importante des rapports établis entre le visuel et l'écrit. Finalement, et par conséquence, l'examen de cet auteur et de son texte met en lumière ce qui a été les Salons, genre littéraire créé au XVIIIème siècle, qui, malgré sa courte duration (n'a survécu que pendant un siècle), a provoqué des importants dédoublements vers l'art et la littérature modernes. / Denis Diderot, autor de uma obra vasta e multifacetada, é tido como uma personalidade muito importante para as ciências humanas. La Promenade Vernet, trecho integrante do Salão de 1767, reflete bem a complexidade da obra do filósofo como um todo, pois é nele em que se observam traços de diferentes gêneros como ficção, ensaio e crítica. Esse curto texto é um “passeio” em que Diderot descreve com maestria uma série de sete “sítios”, com o pretexto de discutir diversas questões de natureza filosófica e estética. O que o leitor não sabe — e só vem a saber no final — é que as descrições dos elementos das paisagens não fazem referência a sete campanhas, mas sim a sete quadros de um famoso paisagista francês, Joseph Vernet. No “Passeio”, Diderot e o Abade, seu interlocutor e personagem fictício, discutem, dialogicamente, em longas jornadas, sobre suas convicções quanto à arte, ao lugar do homem no mundo e a questões morais. Esta pesquisa visa colocar em foco os dispositivos retóricos utilizados pelo autor, especialmente a ekphrasis e o hieróglifo, ambos associados, direta ou indiretamente, à relação entre o verbal e o imagético (ut pictura poesis). Para o desenvolvimento da pesquisa, são utilizados autores de variadas épocas, como Horácio (18 a.C.), que cunhou o termo ut pictura poesis; Lessing (1768), que foi determinante para o desenvolvimento da retórica; e Lichtenstein (1994), cuja obra traça um percurso aprofundado da história da retórica pictórica e na qual esta dissertação se apoia com certo destaque. No texto de Diderot, nota-se significativa importância de referências clássicas, portanto, alguns artigos que esclarecem a obra de Diderot por esse olhar também foram elencados para a constituição da pesquisa. Além desse aparato teórico, recorre-se a alguns textos da obra de Diderot que não são especificamente o Salão de 1767, como a Carta para os surdos-mudos ao uso daqueles que ouvem e falam, no qual o termo “hieróglifo” aparece pela primeira vez. Junto a textos do crítico-filósofo, faz-se uso de uma fortuna crítica rica e predominantemente francesa que se aplica ao estudo da obra diderotiana, entre eles Bukdahl (1980), Chouillet (1987), Starobinski (1991) e Delon (1995). Neste trabalho também é possível encontrar algum aprofundamento sobre estética e sobre a pintura, dada a natureza plural do texto que foi objeto de estudo. Há, a partir desta pesquisa, uma maior compreensão das relações estabelecidas entre o visual e o escrito. Finalmente, e por consequência, o exame desse autor e de seu texto traz à luz um pouco do que foram os Salões, gênero literário criado no século XVIII que, embora tenha sido de curta duração (sobreviveu por cerca de um século, apenas), teve desdobramentos importantes para a arte e a literatura modernas. / Denis Diderot, the author of a vast and multidimensional work, is a renowned personality to the Human Sciences. Promenade Vernet, an integral part of the 1767 Salon, reflects the complexity of the work of the philosopher in its entirety as we can observe some traces of genres such as fiction, essay, and criticism. The short text is a "walk" in which Diderot masterfully describes a series of seven "sites" under the pretext of questioning various subjects of a philosophical and aesthetic nature. What the reader does not have access to - and only learns at the end - is that descriptions of landscape elements do not refer to seven campaigns, but to seven paintings by the famous French landscape artist, Joseph Vernet. During the "Walk", Diderot and the abbé, his interlocutor and fictitious character, discuss dramatically, in long journeys, the beliefs about art, the position of man in the world and morality. This research aims to highlight the rhetorical devices used by the author, especially ekphrasis and hieroglyph, both associated, directly or indirectly, with the relationship between verbal and imagery (ut pictura poesis). For the development of the research, authors from different periods are used, such as Horace (18 b.C.), who coined the term ut pictura poesis; Lessing (1768), which was fundamental to the development of rhetoric; and Lichtenstein (1994), whose work traces an in-depth journey into the history of rhetoric of figures and on which this memoir is based with a certain accent. In Diderot's text, we note a significant importance of classical texts in other that articles that enlighten this perspective in Diderot’s work were chosen to constitute the research. Apart from this theoretical apparatus, it is appealed to texts composing the work of Diderot which are not part of the 1767 Salon, as well as the Letter on the Deaf and Dumb, for the Use of those who hear and speak, in which we find the expression "hieroglyph" for the first time. In addition to the texts of the critic philosopher, we use a rich critical and essentially French fortune that applies to the study of the work of Diderot, including Bukdahl (1980), Chouillet (1987), Starobinski (1991) and Delon (1995). In this work is also possible to find some exploration of aesthetics and painting, given the plural nature of the text that has been object of study. After this research, one can have a further understanding of the relationships between the visual and the written. Finally, and therefore, the examination of this author and his text highlights what the Salons was, a literary genre created in the eighteenth century, which has caused significant duplication towards modern art and literature despite its one-century duration.

[pt] Ut pictura poesis: um panorama histórico das relações entre pintura e poesia é uma análise crítica do percurso histórico das relações entre as denominadas artes gêmeas. A partir de premissas que se baseiam na permanência do topos ut pictura poesis e da ekphrasis como constantes na literatura ocidental, a investigação busca mapear historicamente os turning points das relações entre as duas artes, assim como organizá-los de um modo coerente e panorâmico que permita que as manifestações comparativas contemporâneas sejam analisadas à luz de seus antecedentes práticos e teóricos. / [en] Ut pictura poesis: a historic overview of the relationship between painting and poetry is a critical analysis of the historical development of the relationships between the so-called twin arts. Assuming the topos ut pictura poesis and ekphrasis as constants in western literature, the research seeks to historically map the turning points in the relationship between the two arts, as well as organize it in a coherent and panoramic way that allows that contemporary comparative expressions to be analyzed with the theoretical help of its practical and theoretical antecedents.

In this Master´s thesis is showed the principles, methods and process with document, which is necessary for managing of testing in Testing laboratory. Benefit of this thesis is design the new system of 5S, expanding the testing portfolio and finally, description of the new system for capacity planning. This system should predicted the future problems due to insufficient capacity and this will be done automatically.

SMARCA4 är en gen som kodar för ett protein vid namn Brahma-related gene 1 (BRG1). BRG1 utgör en väsentlig katalytisk subenhet av SWI/SNF-komplexet, vilket är ett proteinkomplex utvecklat för kromatinremodellering. Att modulera kromatinstrukturen bidrar till att viktiga funktioner, såsom transkription och celldifferentiering, kan utföras. En mutation i SMARCA4-genen kan ge upphov till en lungtumör med benämningen Thoracic SMARCA4-deficient undifferentiated tumor (SMARCA4-UT), vilken kännetecknas av en förlust av uttrycket BRG1 i de maligna cellerna. Då tumören kan variera i morfologiskt utseende och i många fall påminna om andra tumörtyper, kan tillämpning av immunhistokemiska metoder vara till stor hjälp vid den medicinska diagnosticeringen. Syftet med denna studie var att vidareutveckla ett befintligt protokoll för att uppnå en optimal immunhistokemisk infärgning av SMARCA4 (BRG1), för att diagnostiskt kunna differentiera mellan olika lungtumörer. För detta ändamål testades flera olika infärgningsprotokoll och kontrollvävnader, samt två antikroppar av olika kloner från företagen Abcam och Santa Cruz. Infärgning med Abcam-antikroppen (klon EPNCIR111A) uppvisade intensiva och specifika resultat, medan Santa Cruz-antikroppen (klon G-7) gav upphov till negativa infärgningar, trots flera försök till optimering. I samråd med en patolog fastställdes det infärgningsprotokoll som gav bäst resultat, vilket inkluderade en förbehandling bestående av buffert CC1 (64 min, 95° C), antikroppsinkubation med Abcam-antikroppen (32 min, 36° C, spädning 1:100), detektion med ultraView Universal DAB Detection Kit, samt kontrastfärgning med hematoxylin (8 min) och blåning (4 min). Denna immunfärgning kommer att införas som ny metod och användas inom den kliniska verksamheten. Däremot kommer metoden att fortsätta prövas under en tid framöver, för att helt säkerställa dess pålitlighet och kunna valideras inför framtida bruk.
