Archer Harman fue el empresario que organizó la compañía norteamericana que construyó el Ferrocarril del Sur. A pesar de que existen numerosos informes oficiales y documentos sobre el ferrocarril en el Archivo Nacional de Historia en Quito y la Biblioteca Aurelio Espinosa Pólit en Cotocollao, no se encuentran datos sobre los antecedentes de Archer Harman antes de su llegada al Ecuador, en 1897, para conseguir la concesión para construir el ferrocarril de Guayaquil a Quito. El propósito de este estudio es reconstruir la vida de Archer Harman antes de su llegada al Ecuador en el año 1897 y explicar cómo formó la compañía que obtuvo el contrato del 14 de junio de 1897 para la construcción del ferrocarril.

In The Middle Ground (1980), Margaret Drabble uses an intertextual web to depict the feminine search for identity and psychological integrity in middle age. This paper attempts to identify and analyze the absorption and integration of other texts in The Middle Ground. The dialogue, both in theme and style, with Virginia Woolf's Mrs Dalloway is initially considered, mostly from the perspective of parody. Other confluences are also studied: with Russian fairy tales, with paintings by Hans Holbein, J. B.Vanmour, Van Dyck, Claude Lorrain and Peter de Hooch, and also its references to the whole of Drabble's literary work.
