Wakeman Burritt fonds, 1807-1814

Wakeman Burritt (1785-1847) was a merchant and ship owner who conducted his business in New York, New Orleans, LA, Charleston, SC, and the West Indies. Despite the difficulties that the Embargo Act of 1807 and the War of 1812 posed to trade and commerce, Burritt managed to run a successful business, dealing in commodities such as foodstuffs, cloth, cotton, and soap. He owned three ships, the Brig Cannon, Brig Eunice and Brig Sampson. In 1809, he married Grace Burr (1787-1874). Together they had at least one child, Francis Burritt (1811-1861).

A poem, delivered in Taunton, September 16th, A. D. 1807, at the anniversary election of the Philandrian society.

El segundo comentario de Abraham Ibn Ezra al libro del Cantar de los Cantares. Edición crítica, traducción, notas y estudio introductorio

We herewith present the critical edition, translation and notes from the second commentary of Abraham ibn Ezra on the Song of Songs. This work is preceded by an introductory study that considers among others, various aspects of the commentary and the influence that the previous and contemporary Jewish exegesis to Ibn Ezra’s may exert on his interpretations of the Song of Songs. Finally, we analyze some of the features that are part of the commentary of Ibn Ezra on the Canticles. Summary: Objectives and results It is the purpose of this work to go into detail about the study of the exegetical texts of Abraham ibn Ezra, and in particular the text of this second commentary of Ibn Ezra on Song of Songs, whose translation and critical edition is the subject of this work. This is especially interesting since it is one of the few translations from the original Hebrew, among which are the Latin translation of Gilberto Genebrardo, published in Paris in 1585 and the English edition of Richard A. Block, published in 1982 in Cincinnati. This edition of the second commentary of Ibn Ezra on the Song of Songs continues the lead of previous work carried out in the translation and critical edition of Ibn Ezra's comments to Ecclesiastes, Esther, and Job by Mariano Gómez Aranda and the commentary to Book of Ruth by Maria Josefa Azcárraga Servert. The translation of Abraham ibn Ezrás text on the aforementioned second commentary on the Song of Songs, and the drawing up of the critical edition by selecting manuscripts that, once collated, will lead to the Hebrew text that will be used for the Castilian version is the basis of the present work. Of the thirty-three existing manuscripts of Ibn Ezra's commentary on the Canticles, ten have been rejected in principle since they belong to the first commentary, whose text on two manuscripts was translated into English by H. J. Mathews in 1874. Only thirteen out of the remaining twenty three manuscripts have been used for drawing up the critical edition, since ten of them have not been included in the present edition in spite of their belonging to the second commentary...

Fracionamento dos carboidratos pelas equações do Cornell Net Carbohydrate and Protein System de três cultivares de girassol na presença ou não de irrigação

Objetivou-se quantificar as frações de carboidratos pelas equações do Cornell Net Carbohydrate and Protein System (CNCPS) de três cultivares de girassol (Helianthus annuus L.) cultivados na presença ou não de irrigação. A utilização de uma preparação fibrosa, denominada parede celular (PC), nas equações da CNCPS, em substituição à fibra em detergente neutro (FDN) não promoveu diferenças nas frações de carboidratos B1 e C, mas influenciou as frações A e B2. Como os valores da fração B1, obtidos pelo modelo CNCPS foram menores que os teores de amido e pectina determinados em laboratório, supõe-se que a pectina e outros oligossacarídeos da parede celular, solubilizados pela solução de detergente neutro (fibra solúvel), nunca fizeram parte da fração B1, e sim da fração A. Apesar de os carboidratos da fibra solúvel apresentarem elevadas taxas de degradação, não parece adequada a caracterização da fibra solúvel na fração A. Parece mais adequado que a fibra solúvel (que inclui a pectina) seja alocada a uma fração exclusivamente sua, que pode ser a fração B2, e que seja criada uma nova fração, a B3, para os carboidratos digeríveis da parede celular. Assim, a fração B1 seria composta apenas de amido. A equação da fração C, que estima os carboidratos indigeríveis da parede celular, pode ser simplificada, relacionando a fração indigerível ao teor de lignina na matéria seca, e não à FDN isenta de cinzas e proteína, como atualmente utilizado. Esta proposta tem implicações práticas, uma vez que a fração indigerível da parede celular tem sido expressa em relação à FDN, e não na MS, com base no fato de que os efeitos inibitórios da lignina ocorrem sobre os componentes fibrosos da parede celular vegetal, e não sobre o conteúdo celular.

Substitution of crude cell wall for neutral detergent fibre in the equations of the Cornell Net Carbohydrate and Protein System that predict carbohydrate fractions: application to sunflower (Helianthus annulus L.)

Prediction of carbohydrate fractions using equations from the Cornell Net Carbohydrate and Protein System (CNCPS) is a valuable tool to assess the nutritional value of forages. In this paper these carbohydrate fractions were predicted using data from three sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) cultivars, fresh or as silage. The CNCPS equations for fractions B(2) and C include measurement of ash and protein-free neutral detergent fibre (NDF) as one of their components. However, NDF lacks pectin and other non-starch polysaccharides that are found in the cell wall (CW) matrix, so this work compared the use of a crude CW preparation instead of NDF in the CNCPS equations. There were no differences in the estimates of fractions B, and C when CW replaced NDF; however there were differences in fractions A and B2. Some of the CNCPS equations could be simplified when using CW instead of NDF Notably, lignin could be expressed as a proportion of DM, rather than on the basis of ash and protein-free NDF, when predicting CNCPS fraction C. The CNCPS fraction B(1) (starch + pectin) values were lower than pectin determined through wet chemistty. This finding, along with the results obtained by the substitution of CW for NDF in the CNCPS equations, suggests that pectin was not part of fraction B(1) but present in fraction A. We suggest that pectin and other non-starch polysaccharides that are dissolved by the neutral detergent solution be allocated to a specific fraction (B2) and that another fraction (B(3)) be adopted for the digestible cell wall carbohydrates.
