The new Golden Legend: Patrick Nicholas's secular saints

The work of Italian-based photo-artist Patrick Nicholas is analysed to show how his re-workings of classic ‘old-master’ paintings can be seen as the art of ‘redaction,’ shedding new light on the relationship between originality and copying. I argue that redactional creativity is both highly productive of new meanings and a reinvention of the role of the medieval Golden Legend. (Lives of the Saints).

Crowd Control? Depictions of the Many in Anglo-Saxon Literature, with Particular Reference to the Old English Legend of the Seven Sleepers

This article argues for the distinctiveness of the presentation of crowds in the Old English version of the Legend of the Seven Sleepers . In traditional Old English poetry, crowds are mostly conspicuous by their absence, since the social groupings portrayed are typically those ofthe lord's retinue and the fellowship of the hall. In writings deriving from Latin traditions (in Anglo-Latin, Old English prose and strands of Old English poetry) such as historiography andhagiography, crowds are presented in highly conventional terms based on literary models. The crowd scenes in the Legend of the Seven Sleepers , on the other hand, have an immediacy and urgency that seem based on real-life experience of Anglo-Saxon England rather than simply imitative of the work's Latin (ultimately Greek) source or of other literary models. Drawing upon crowd theory and historical studies, the article demonstrates that the crowds in this text are presented in “domesticated” Anglo-Saxon terms and may be seen as reflective of growing urbanization in late Anglo-Saxon England. “Real” crowds are glimpsed elsewhere in Anglo-Saxon literature but in the Legend of the Seven Sleepers they are particularly foregrounded; this text also presents the literature's liveliest picture of town life more generally.

Evolução da qualidade de cebola armazenada, variedades "Pandero" e "Legend", em função da temperatura e aplicação de hidrazida maleica

A cebola representa no Ribatejo um dos produtos hortícolas de maior peso na economia agrícola regional. Os mercados dos produtos agrícolas são caracterizados por uma oferta contínua ao longo dos doze meses do ano. Actualmente é possível, garantir o fornecimento de cebola num apreciável período de tempo; no entanto, torna-se necessário proceder à sua conservação como forma de garantia de escoamento e regularização do abastecimento ao mercado. O material experimental constou de bolbos das variedades “Pandero” e “Legend” provenientes das plantações dos associados da Agromais e aplicação de um anti-abrolhante (hidrazida maleica), para que se tenha cebola não espigada com 6 meses de armazenamento, mantendo um equilíbrio no mercado durante o ano inteiro. As cebolas foram armazenadas em oito combinações; dois grupos da variedade “Pandero” um tratado outro não com HM, conservados a 4º C. Outros dois grupos da mesma variedade um tratado outro não com HM, conservados a 2,5ºC, repetindo a mesma forma na variedade “Legend”, com uma humidade relativa cerca de 75% (recomendada na conservação da cebola). Foram observadas as seguintes variáveis: podridão; espigamento; defeitos menores; defeitos maiores; defeitos totais e perda de peso. As observações foram realizadas em períodos de 15 em 15 dias, com os seguintes dias de conservação; 0; 16; 30; 46 e 59. O objectivo deste trabalho foi perceber os efeitos da hidrazida maleica e diferentes temperaturas (4 e 2,5ºC) sobre os parâmetros fisiológicos dos bolbos de cebola armazenados. Verificou-se uma menor podridão na temperatura a 2,5ºC, a HM reduziu o espigamento na variedade “Pandero” à temperatura de 4ºC, já sem HM o espigamento foi maior na “Pandero” à temperatura de 4ºC; com o abaixamento da temperatura de 4 para 2,5ºC houve uma redução de 5% no espigamento; os defeitos totais não foram afectados pela temperatura,

Performing Leigh Hunt’s 1840 Play "A Legend of Florence"

Leigh Hunt's authorship of "A legend of Florence" (1840) — a drama inspired by the rich cultural, intellectual, and political climate of Italy — reflects, as Michael Eberle-Sinatra demonstrates in the final essay of the first section, not only a literary exchange between England and Italy, but argues that during the creation of his play, Hunt engaged in his own version of border crossing as he managed the transition between writing about and writing for the stage. A complex maneuver that required Hunt to rech beyond his own intellectual boundaries, the shift from critic to dramatist challenged and enriched his thoughts regarding the work of the theater.
