Letters from Benjamin Welles to John Henry Tudor, 1799-1801

Benjamin Welles wrote these six letters to his friend and classmate, John Henry Tudor, between 1799 and 1801. Four of the letters are dated, and the dates of the other two can be deduced from their contents. Welles wrote Tudor four times in September 1799, at the onset of their senior year at Harvard, in an attempt to clear up hurt feelings and false rumors that he believed had caused a chill in their friendship. The cause of the rift is never fully explained, though Welles alludes to "a viper" and "villainous hypocrite" who apparently spread rumors and fueled discord between the two friends. In one letter, Welles asserts that "College is a rascal's Elysium - or the feeling man's hell." In another he writes: "College, Tudor, is a furnace to the phlegmatic, & a Greenland to thee feeling man; it has an atmosphere which breathes contagion to the soul [...] Villains fatten here. College is the embryo of hell." Whatever their discord, the wounds were apparently eventually healed; in a letter written June 26, 1800, Welles writes to ask Tudor about his impending speech at Commencement exercises. In an October 29, 1801 letter, Welles writes to Tudor in Philadelphia (where he appears to have traveled in attempts to recover his failing health) and expresses strong wishes for his friend's recovery and return to Boston. This letter also contains news of their classmate Washington Allston's meeting with painters Henry Fuseli and Benjamin West.

Becket, Massachusetts 15 Minute Digital Raster Graphic

This layer is a digital raster graphic of the historic 15-minute USGS topographic quadrangle map of Becket, Massachusetts. The survey (ground condition) date is 1886. A digital raster graphic (DRG) is a scanned image of a U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) standard series topographic map, including all map collar information. The image inside the map neatline is geo-referenced to the surface of the earth and fit to the Universal Transverse Mercator projection. The horizontal positional accuracy and datum of the DRG matches the accuracy and datum of the source map. The names of quadrangles which border this one appear on the map collar in their respective positions (N,S,E,W) in relation to this map.

Las oraciones de relativo en español : Algunas consideraciones

Este trabajo tiene por objeto abordar el problema de las oraciones de relativo, en particular las oraciones de relativo con "cuyo" y con preposición en el complementante, en el marco teórico del Programa Minimalista de N. Chomsky. La particularidad de estas estructuras es que establecen una cadena estructural entre el antecedente, el SQU y su traza, lo cual las convierte en estructuras complejas. Su especificidad reside en que en las oraciones de relativo con preposición en el COMP, el SQU coteja rasgos de género y número con el antecedente, en tanto que en las oraciones de relativo con "cuyo" (forma posesiva en genitivo), este pronombre se comporta como un DET y es núcleo de un SD; el antecedente no influye en el cotejo de rasgos porque los posesivos determinan un dominio, similar al dominio de un sujeto. ;Estas cuestiones hacen a una mayor complejidad de dichas estructuras, lo cual se corrobora en que son de aparición tardía, tal como lo demuestra Hurtado (1984), y quedan relegadas, en la mayoría de los casos, a la escritura. Además, en la oralidad se suele sustituir "cuyo" y (P DET QU), por "que". Nuestra hipótesis es que la desaparición de la preposición, en algunos casos, y la sustitución de "cuyo" en otros, podría explicarse por Principios de Economía enunciados en el Programa Minimalista, lo que nos llevaría a establecer que habría ciertos rasgos que para el hablante son más fuertes en el cotejo y otros que son prescindibles en la medida en que las descripciones estructurales resultantes converjan en FL y FF. Por otra parte, la progresiva desaparición del "cuyo" se debería a que no coteja rasgos con el antecedente

Late Oligocene to Recent benthic foraminifers from the northeastern North Atlantic

Deep-sea benthic foraminiferal faunas were studied from Sites 608 (depth 3534 m, 42°50'N, 23°05'W) and 610 (depth 2427 m, 53°13'N, 18°53'W). The sampling interval corresponded to 0.1 to 0.5 m.y. at Site 608 and in the sections of Site 610 from which core recovery was continuous. First and last appearances of benthic foraminiferal taxa are generally not coeval at the two sites, although the faunal patterns are similar and many species occur at both sites. Major periods of changes in the benthic faunas, as indicated by the numbers of first and last appearances and changes in relative abundances, occurred in the early Miocene (19.2-17 Ma), the middle Miocene (15.5-13.5 Ma), the late Miocene (7-5.5 Ma), and the Pliocene-Pleistocene (3.5-0.7 Ma). A period of minor changes in the middle to late Miocene (10-9 Ma) was recognized at Site 608 only. These periods of faunal changes can be correlated with periods of paleoceanographic changes: there was a period of sluggish circulation in the northeastern North Atlantic from 19.2 to 17 Ma, and the deep waters of the oceans probably cooled between 15.5 and 13.5 Ma, as indicated by an increase in delta18O values in benthic foraminiferal tests. The period between 10 and 9 Ma was probably characterized by relatively vigorous bottom-water circulation in the northeastern Atlantic, as indicated by the presence of a widespread reflector. The faunal change at 7 to 5.5 Ma corresponds in time with a worldwide change in delta13C values, and with the Messinian closing of the Mediterranean. The last and largest faunal changes correspond in time with the onset and intensification of Northern Hemisphere glaciation.
