Temperature- and salinity-dependent development of a Nordic strain of Ichthyophthirius multifiliis from rainbow trout

During the twentieth century evidence was presented which suggested the presence of various strains and races of the parasite Ichthyophthirius multifiliis Fouquet. However, ecological profiles of various parasite isolates from different climatic zones are sparse. Such stringent characterizations of parasite development at defined abiotic conditions could provide valuable criteria for the different races: profile comparison from various localities is one way to differentiate these strains. Baseline investigations were therefore performed on the associations between abiotic factors (temperature/salinity) and the development of theronts in tomocysts of I. multifiliis isolated from rainbow trout in a Danish trout farm. It was shown that tomocyst formation and theront development took place between 5 and 30degreesC. Development rates and sizes of theronts were clearly affected by temperature: theronts escaped tomocysts already after 16-27 h at 25degreesC and 30degreesC, whereas this process took 8-9 days at 5degreesC. Likewise, theront size decreased steadily from a maximum of 57.4 x 28.6 mum at 5degreesC to 28.6 x 20.0 mum at 30degreesC. This size variation was only partly associated with the number of theronts that appeared at different temperatures. The lowest number of theronts escaping from one tomocyst was indeed found at 5-7degreesC (mean 329-413). At 11.6, 17.0 and 21degreesC. the highest number of theronts appeared (mean 546-642). However, at 25 and 30degreesC, the number decreased (458 and 424, respectively). Additional studies on the salinity dependent development of the parasite (at 11.6degreesC) showed that salinities above 5 p.p.t. totally inhibited development. Even at 5 p.p.t. the developmental time significantly increased and the number of theronts produced from one tomocyst decreased.

Antysemicki incydent prasowy. Kartki pocztowe i poznańskie gazety

Jednym z motywów ikonograficznych wykorzystywanych na reklamowych kartach pocztowych z przełomu XIX i XX wieku były strony tytułowe lokalnych gazet. Wokół poznańskich pocztówek z motywem „gazetowym” wydawanych przez Isaaka Plessnera wybuchła w 1904 roku polemika prasowa o silnie antysemickim podłożu. Zarzut dotyczył druku reklamy katolickiego czasopisma u żydowskiego wydawcy.

Antyk w prozie J. R. R. Tolkiena

Tolkien’s oeuvre and its problematic relationships with classical tradition serve in my paper as an illustration of the diverse approaches, methods, and styles of lecture concerning the nature of literary allusivity. As a point of departure in the paper has been taken the reflection on the common phrase about “antiquity in something” deployed broadly in the reception studies. T he questions raised here are as follows: what does precisely “in” mean in that metaphor? O r, to put it in more general terms, when an allusion to another text can be treated as an inherent part of interpretation? Answer to these questions was possible due to U mberto E co’s statements in the well-known dispute relating to the interpretation and overinterpretation; in conclusion I was trying to show that his criterion of textual economy in interpretation justifies somehow (as I believe) the new look on the essential T olkien’s symbol, i.e. the ring of power, as a symbol of the R oman imperial rule. This means (in the context of the translatio imperii and cultural change from pagan to Christian empire) that The Lord of the Rings can be seen in a way as a novelistic version of Augustine’s The City of God.

Przywództwo Niemiec i Francji w Unii Europejskiej w XXI w. Problemy i wyzwania

Autor w pracy stawia tezę, że „francusko-niemiecki motor” odegrał pozytywną rolę w procesie integracji europejskiej w XX w. Dzięki bliskiej współpracy francusko-niemieckiej możliwa była realizacja unii walutowo-gospodarczej, Wspólna Polityka Zagraniczna i Bezpieczeństwa oraz stworzenie w UE „obszaru wolności, bezpieczeństwa i sprawiedliwości”. W XXI w. trudna sytuacja gospodarcza Francji i napięcia społeczne spowodowały spadek jej znaczenia w Unii Europejskiej. Kryzys finansowy strefy euro oraz problem uchodźców wykreowały Niemcy na samotnego lidera w Unii Europejskiej. Jednakże współpraca francusko-niemiecka nie załamała się, gdyż oba państwa wzajemnie się potrzebują i zapewniają równowagę w Europie. Zdaniem wielu ekspertów, ze względu na ogólne nastroje w Europie, w Berlinie i Paryżu brakuje nowych idei ukazujących perspektywy rozwojowe Unii Europejskiej na najbliższe lata.
