Prolific British author/illustrator Anthony Browne both participates in the classic fairy-tale tradition and appropriates its cultural capital, ultimately undertaking a process of self-canonisation alongside the dissemination of fairy tales. In reading Browne’s Hansel and Gretel (1981), The Tunnel (1989) and Into the Forest (2004), a trajectory emerges that moves from broadly intertextual to more exclusively self-referential modes of representation which reward readers of “Anthony Browne”, rather than readers of “fairy tales”. All three books depict ‘babes in the woods’ stories wherein child characters must negotiate some form of threat outside the home in order to return home safely. Thus, they represent childhood agency. However, these visions of agency are ultimately subordinated to logics of capital, which means that child readers of Browne’s fairy-tale books are overtly invited to identify with children who act, but are interpellated as privileged if they ‘know’. Bourdieu’s model of ‘cultural capital’ offers a lens for considering Browne’s production of ‘value’ for his own works within a broader cultural landscape which privileges literary fairy tales as a register of juvenile cultural competency. If cultural capital can be formulated most simply as the symbolic exchange value of approved modes of knowing and being, it is clearly helpful when trying to unpack logics of meaning within heavily intertextual or citational texts. It is also helpful thinking about what kinds of stories we as a culture choose to disseminate, choose to privilege, or choose to suppress. Zipes notes of fairy tales that, “the genre itself becomes a kind of institute that is involved in the socialization and acculturation of readers” (22). He elaborates that, “We initiate readers and expect them to learn the fairy-tale code as part of our responsibility in the civilizing process” (Zipes 29), so it is little wonder that Tatar describes fairy tales as “a vital part of our cultural capital” (xix). Although Browne is clearly interested in literary fairy tales, the most obvious strategies of self-canonisation take place in Browne’s work not in words but in pictures: hidden in plain sight, as illustration becomes self-reflexive citation.

Information on the biology and populations of the shortnose sturgeon, Acipenser brevirostrum, is compiled, reviewed, and analyzed in the FAO species synopsis style. New information indicates this species exhibits biological and life-cycle differences over its north-south latitudinal range and that it is more abundant than previously thought.

O museu como instituição de produção, guarda e difusão de conhecimentos necessita criar e desenvolver estratégias que se encontram articuladas a demandas sociais de um determinado tempo histórico, assim como àquelas que lhes são próprias. O estudo das ações educativas desenvolvidas pelo Museu Nacional do Rio de Janeiro no período entre sua criação em 1818 e a década de 1930 com os objetivos de divulgar o conhecimento científico por ele produzido e apoiar o ensino das ciências naturais é objeto deste trabalho, na tentativa de compreendê-las enredadas no contexto mais amplo de institucionalização da educação, racionalização da pedagogia, formação do caráter público dos museus e construção da nação brasileira. Operando com as continuidades e descontinuidades dessas ações no período proposto, a pesquisa foi desenvolvida através da investigação de um conjunto documental, composto dos seguintes tipos: a) legislação brasileira, pertinente à educação e ao Museu Nacional; b) correspondência efetivada entre o Museu, ministérios, instituições e autoridades; c) relatórios de Diretores, Secretário, pesquisadores do Museu Nacional; dos ministérios; de naturalistas e professores; d) livros de registros do Museu Nacional; e) catálogos, programas e guias de exposições nacionais e internacionais; f) publicações de diretores do Museu Nacional e de professores; g) conferências sobre ciência e educação; h) periódicos; i) quadros murais e coleções didáticas. Desse conjunto tratamos em especial os materiais que serviram de suporte e veículo de comunicação, com a pretensão de evidenciar o museu como espaço educativo, valorizando suas ações dirigidas para a instrução pública. De acordo com os resultados obtidos, foi possível observar que ao longo do Império e nas quatro primeiras décadas da República no Brasil o Museu Nacional atuou como agência de consultoria de governo, ampliando suas ações educativas para atender às necessidades de diferentes segmentos da sociedade e às suas demandas internas. Nesse sentido, contribuiu para afirmar estudos em História Natural apoiados na teoria evolucionista; inserir o Brasil no cenário científico internacional; instruir e ampliar os conhecimentos sobre o país, valorizando suas riquezas naturais, estimulando no público, especialmente o escolar, o caráter prático do ensino e um sentimento de pertencimento e de identidade nacional.

Background: The European mink (Mustela lutreola, L. 1761) is a critically endangered mustelid, which inhabits several main river drainages in Europe. Here, we assess the genetic variation of existing populations of this species, including new sampling sites and additional molecular markers (newly developed microsatellite loci specific to European mink) as compared to previous studies. Probabilistic analyses were used to examine genetic structure within and between existing populations, and to infer phylogeographic processes and past demography. Results: According to both mitochondrial and nuclear microsatellite markers, Northeastern (Russia, Estonia and Belarus) and Southeastern (Romania) European populations showed the highest intraspecific diversity. In contrast, Western European (France and Spain) populations were the least polymorphic, featuring a unique mitochondrial DNA haplotype. The high differentiation values detected between Eastern and Western European populations could be the result of genetic drift in the latter due to population isolation and reduction. Genetic differences among populations were further supported by Bayesian clustering and two main groups were confirmed (Eastern vs. Western Europe) along with two contained subgroups at a more local scale (Northeastern vs. Southeastern Europe; France vs. Spain). Conclusions: Genetic data and performed analyses support a historical scenario of stable European mink populations, not affected by Quaternary climate oscillations in the Late Pleistocene, and posterior expansion events following river connections in both North-and Southeastern European populations. This suggests an eastern refuge during glacial maxima (as already proposed for boreal and continental species). In contrast, Western Europe was colonised more recently following either natural expansions or putative human introductions. Low levels of genetic diversity observed within each studied population suggest recent bottleneck events and stress the urgent need for conservation measures to counteract the demographic decline experienced by the European mink.
