Gelman : El salario del impío

En su "Discurso sobre lírica y sociedad", Theodor W Adorno señala que el poema lírico debe presentar un alto "grado de interiorización y una radical individuación". Es decir, que el contenido del poema será tanto más objetivo y motivado socialmente cuanto menos se "tematice" en el la relación entre el yo y la sociedad y que el sujeto estará menos ausente de la forma poética que lo presenta, cuanto mas se sumerja y olvide en la objetividad social del lenguaje. A k luz de esas nociones pueden leerse dos libros de Juan Gelman, que se refieren explícitamente al exilio: Bajo la lluvia ajena (notas al pie de una derrota) (1984) y Salarios del impío (1993). Entre uno y otro se percibe una progresiva individuación que permite alcanzar formalmente en el lenguaje poético una eficaz representación imaginaria del hecho histórico opresivo, que elude la reducción temática. Asimismo, la noción de posterioridad, con k cual se reinscribe y reorganiza la significación de un hecho traumático del pasado en un trabajo de la memoria, permitiría revisar aquella célebre advertencia de Adorno según la cual seria imposible escribir poesía después de un genocidio.

Los pasos previos : Apuntes sobre la radicalización política y cultural a partir de la trayectoria empresarial de Jorge Alvarez (1963 - 1970)

En este artículo se reconstruye la trayectoria del empresario y productor cultural Jorge Alvarez entre los años 1963 y 1970. El objetivo es plantear algunos aspectos referidos a la relación establecida entre ciertos modelos de intelectualidad ligados a la versión argentina de la "nueva izquierda" cultural y las resonancias que las tendencias globales ligadas a un amplio proceso de contestación juvenil alcanzaron en nuestro país durante aquellos años. Como en buena parte del mundo occidental, la consolidación en la Argentina de la juventud como actor social significativo se alimentó de un heterogéneo universo de elementos que circulaban a través de renovados mecanismos de la industria y la cultura de masas. El artículo se presenta como un aporte para la incorporación de aspectos relativamente desatendidos en las lecturas existentes sobre el fenómeno de radicalización juvenil ocurrido en nuestro país en la intersección de las décadas del '60 y '70

Process mining manifesto

Process mining techniques are able to extract knowledge from event logs commonly available in today’s information systems. These techniques provide new means to discover, monitor, and improve processes in a variety of application domains. There are two main drivers for the growing interest in process mining. On the one hand, more and more events are being recorded, thus, providing detailed information about the history of processes. On the other hand, there is a need to improve and support business processes in competitive and rapidly changing environments. This manifesto is created by the IEEE Task Force on Process Mining and aims to promote the topic of process mining. Moreover, by defining a set of guiding principles and listing important challenges, this manifesto hopes to serve as a guide for software developers, scientists, consultants, business managers, and end-users. The goal is to increase the maturity of process mining as a new tool to improve the (re)design, control, and support of operational business processes.

Grandiflora : Recent Paintings by Daniel Mafe

Grandiflora: Recent Paintings by Daniel Mafe The paintings of Grandiflora are improvised around a range of different flower motifs culled from medieval textiles and botanical illustrations. Each of the paintings is constructed upon a ground of flat, palely luminous yellow occasionally supplemented by additional areas of high-keyed pastel. Pink, blue, green and mauve together with the yellow, generate a shimmering and even incandescent glow. The graphic images of the flowers with the flat colour areas are then contrasted and worked over with richly sensual, abstract gestures of paint. Within the work there is a pronounced almost rococo-esque opticality as it operates between these different visual codes of flat colour, recognizable floral forms, and gesture. These codes combine to produce a definite visceral impact on the viewer, a pronounced and tactile sense of the experience and ambiguity inherent in perceiving. This ambiguity is interestingly at odds with the apparently clean and crisp quality each painting demonstrates as an integrated whole. Indeed each piece goes on to reveal, despite the use of overt figurative quotations, a sense of the purely abstract which in its turn concretely establishes the ornamental.

Glider path-planning for optimal sampling of mesocale eddies

Ocean gliders constitute an important advance in the highly demanding ocean monitoring scenario. Their effciency, endurance and increasing robustness make these vehicles an ideal observing platform for many long term oceanographic applications. However, they have proved to be also useful in the opportunis-tic short term characterization of dynamic structures. Among these, mesoscale eddies are of particular interest due to the relevance they have in many oceano-graphic processes.

Modeling the cumulative genetic risk for multiple sclerosis from genome-wide association data

Background: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common cause of chronic neurologic disability beginning in early to middle adult life. Results from recent genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have substantially lengthened the list of disease loci and provide convincing evidence supporting a multifactorial and polygenic model of inheritance. Nevertheless, the knowledge of MS genetics remains incomplete, with many risk alleles still to be revealed. Methods: We used a discovery GWAS dataset (8,844 samples, 2,124 cases and 6,720 controls) and a multi-step logistic regression protocol to identify novel genetic associations. The emerging genetic profile included 350 independent markers and was used to calculate and estimate the cumulative genetic risk in an independent validation dataset (3,606 samples). Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was implemented to compare clinical characteristics of individuals with various degrees of genetic risk. Gene ontology and pathway enrichment analysis was done using the DAVID functional annotation tool, the GO Tree Machine, and the Pathway-Express profiling tool. Results: In the discovery dataset, the median cumulative genetic risk (P-Hat) was 0.903 and 0.007 in the case and control groups, respectively, together with 79.9% classification sensitivity and 95.8% specificity. The identified profile shows a significant enrichment of genes involved in the immune response, cell adhesion, cell communication/ signaling, nervous system development, and neuronal signaling, including ionotropic glutamate receptors, which have been implicated in the pathological mechanism driving neurodegeneration. In the validation dataset, the median cumulative genetic risk was 0.59 and 0.32 in the case and control groups, respectively, with classification sensitivity 62.3% and specificity 75.9%. No differences in disease progression or T2-lesion volumes were observed among four levels of predicted genetic risk groups (high, medium, low, misclassified). On the other hand, a significant difference (F = 2.75, P = 0.04) was detected for age of disease onset between the affected misclassified as controls (mean = 36 years) and the other three groups (high, 33.5 years; medium, 33.4 years; low, 33.1 years). Conclusions: The results are consistent with the polygenic model of inheritance. The cumulative genetic risk established using currently available genome-wide association data provides important insights into disease heterogeneity and completeness of current knowledge in MS genetics.

Impact of child labor on academic performance : evidence from the program "Edúcame Primero Colombia"

In this study, the effects of different variables of child labor on academic performance are investigated. To this end, 3302 children participating in the child labor eradication program “Edúcame Primero Colombia” were interviewed. The interview format used for the children's enrollment into the program was a template from which socioeconomic conditions, academic performance, and child labor variables were evaluated. The academic performance factor was determined using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). The data were analyzed through a logistic regression model that took into account children who engaged in a type of labor (n = 921). The results showed that labor conditions, the number of weekly hours dedicated to work, and the presence of work scheduled in the morning negatively affected the academic performance of child laborers. These results show that the relationship between child labor and academic performance is based on the conflict between these two activities. These results do not indicate a linear and simple relationship associated with the recognition of the presence or absence of child labor. This study has implications for the formulation of policies, programs, and interventions for preventing, eradicating, and attenuating the negative effects of child labor on the social and educational development of children.

Synonymization of key pest species within the Bactrocera dorsalis species complex (Diptera: Tephritidae): Taxonomic changes based on a review of 20 years of integrative morphological, molecular, cytogenetic, behavioural and chemoecological data

Bactrocera papayae Drew & Hancock, Bactrocera philippinensis Drew & Hancock, Bactrocera carambolae Drew & Hancock, and Bactrocera invadens Drew, Tsuruta & White are four horticultural pest tephritid fruit fly species that are highly similar, morphologically and genetically, to the destructive pest, the Oriental fruit fly, Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel) (Diptera: Tephritidae). This similarity has rendered the discovery of reliable diagnostic characters problematic, which, in view of the economic importance of these taxa and the international trade implications, has resulted in ongoing difficulties for many areas of plant protection and food security. Consequently, a major international collaborative and integrated multidisciplinary research effort was initiated in 2009 to build upon existing literature with the specific aim of resolving biological species limits among B. papayae, B. philippinensis, B. carambolae, B. invadens and B. dorsalis to overcome constraints to pest management and international trade. Bactrocera philippinensis has recently been synonymized with B. papayae as a result of this initiative and this review corroborates that finding; however, the other names remain in use. While consistent characters have been found to reliably distinguish B. carambolae from B. dorsalis, B. invadens and B. papayae, no such characters have been found to differentiate the latter three putative species. We conclude that B. carambolae is a valid species and that the remaining taxa, B. dorsalis, B. invadens and B. papayae, represent the same species. Thus, we consider B. dorsalis (Hendel) as the senior synonym of B. papayae Drew and Hancock syn.n. and B. invadens Drew, Tsuruta & White syn.n. A redescription of B. dorsalis is provided. Given the agricultural importance of B. dorsalis, this taxonomic decision will have significant global plant biosecurity implications, affecting pest management, quarantine, international trade, postharvest treatment and basic research. Throughout the paper, we emphasize the value of independent and multidisciplinary tools in delimiting species, particularly in complicated cases involving morphologically cryptic taxa.

Tuuleen piirrän nimeni : Daniel Urwindin fragmentaarinen omaelämäkerta Bo Carpelanin romaanissa Alkutuuli

Tutkielma käsittelee Bo Carpelanin romaania Alkutuuli (Urwind 1993) päähenkilö Daniel Urwindin fragmentaarisesti kerrottuna elämäntarinana. Kyse on kahdella aikatasolla etenevästä fiktiivisestä omaelämäkerrasta, joka perustuu viikottaisiin päiväkirjamerkintöihin. Daniel hahmottaa identiteettiään tilaan kytkeytyneiden muistojen sekä oman nimensä avulla leikaten samalla kerronnan jatkuvuuden. Tutkimusongelmana on hahmottaa Danielin kerronnan tavat, kirjoittamisen syyt sekä prosessiin lopputulos. Menneisyyteen kohdistuvan minä-kerronnan analyysi perustuu Dorrit Cohnin Transparent minds -teoksen käsitteistöön. Alkutuulessa esiintyy muistikerronnan ja muistimonologin epäsäännöllistä vuorottelua. Niiden osana on edesmenneiden läheisten upotettuja monologeja, joiden takaa kuultaa Danielin ääni: monologit ovat Danielin kuvittelemia tai referoimia puheita ja ajatuksia, joiden esittäjä on hänen yksinäisen keskustelunsa toinen osapuoli. Omaelämäkertaa käsittelevinä teoreettisina lähteinä ovat ensisijaisesti Päivi Kososen artikkelit sekä hänen tutkimuksensa Elämät sanoissa. Tutkielman tulkinnan kannalta keskeisessä asemassa ovat Bo Carpelanin essee- ja kaunokirjallinen tuotanto. Kirjoittamisen lähtökohtana on päähenkilön identiteettiä horjuttava elämänvaihe. Vaimo Marian lähdettyä vuodeksi Amerikkaan Daniel pyrkii löytämään oman kielensä ja luomaan muistojensa avulla eheämmän kuvan itsestään. Prosessiin kytkeytyy keskeisesti tila - Danielin kulkiessa talossaan, joka on hänen lapsuudenkotinsa, aistitodellisuus toimii mieleenpalauttajana: äänet ja tuoksut johdattavat hänet elämään menneisyyden muistoja uudelleen nykyhetkessä. Samalla talo ja huoneet personifioituvat ja minuus alkaa rakentua tilan kaltaiseksi. Uusien ovien ja huoneiden löytyminen symboloi Danielin muistojen selkeytymistä ja itseymmärryksen syvenemistä. Kirjoittamisen voi tulkita olevan psykoanalyyttinen prosessi, jossa omaelämäkerran minä keskustelee menneisyyden minänsä kanssa. Puhuja odottaa vastausta toiselta, vaikka vastaus löytyy paradoksaalisesti itsestä. Omaelämäkerran moniäänisyyttä korostavat edesmenneiden läheisten läsnäolo, Danielin eri ikävaiheiden identiteetit ja kaksoisolentojen hahmoissa esiintyvät minuudet. Kirjoittamisen avulla Daniel pyrkii pääsemään etäämmälle itsestään ja saavuttamaan minättömyyden tilan, jota käsitellään John Keatsilta peräisin olevan käsitteen "negatiivinen kyky" avulla. Alkutuuli on taiteilijaromaani, jossa taiteilijuutta edustavat siivet ja lentäminen kytkeytyvät mielikuvitukseen ja uusiutumiseen. Danielin tie taiteilijuutta edeltävään minättömyyteen on kuitenkin vaikea ja monet merkit viittaavat diletantin kohtaloon. Unenomaisen logiikan omaavan, fragmentaarisen kerronnan takaa on hahmotettavissa myös lainalaisuuksia. Muiden henkilöiden lyhyet elämäkerrat ovat heidän haavansa paljastavia episodeja, jotka muuttuvat osaksi Danielin elämäntarinaa. Danielin kirjallinen omakuva on montaasi, jossa eri tasossa olevat elementit, nykyhetki ja menneisyys, mielikuvitus, unet ja upotetut monologit rinnastuvat samaan tasoon. Daniel peilaa elettyä ja koettua koomisen peilirakenteen avulla, jossa hänen elämäänsä osallisena olleet menneisyyden henkilöt kulkevat narrikulkueen mukana. Toive eheästä minäkuvasta osoittautuu kuitenkin mahdottomaksi merkityssulkeuman todenvastaisuuden vuoksi. Urwind-nimen pohdinnasta liikkeelle lähtenyt omaelämäkerta päättyy syklistä liikettä mukaillen tilanteeseen, jossa päähenkilö hyväksyy elämän käsittämättömyyden ja luottaa omassa nimessään piilevään voimaan, tuuleen, viitaten samalla myös romaanin nimeen. Avainsanat: Bo Carpelan - muistot - tila - fragmentaarisuus - fiktiivinen omaelämäkerta
