Sangre y vino en el juramento de Lisístrata (vv. 181-239)

(ES) En el presente artículo trata de poner de relieve los mecanismos utilizados por Aristófanes en Lisístrata para presentar de forma paródica el sacrificio juratorio con el que las mujeres sellan el pacto para obligar a sus maridos a que firmen la paz. Se analiza en este trabajo la utilización del vocabulario específico y la organización básica de este ritual, que Aristófanes conserva intacto, en contraste con la sustitución operada en cuanto a la persona que realiza el sacrificio y a la víctima sacrificial, una jarra de vino de Tasos. Esta elección entronca con el motivo cómico del amor de las mujeres al vino, al que se dedica la segunda parte de este trabajo.

THE ART SONG OF SOUTH AMERICA: AN EXPLORATION THROUGH PERFORMANCE

The repertoire included in this dissertation was presented over the course of three recitals, The Songs of Argentina, The Songs of Brazil, Chile and Venezuela, and The Songs of Perú and Colombia. Each recital was supplemented by written program notes and English translations of the Spanish, Portuguese and Quechua texts. The selections presented in this study was chosen in an effort to pair the works of internationally renowned composers like Argentine composers Alberto Ginastera and Carlos Guastavino, and Brazilian composer Heitor Villa-Lobos, with those of lesser-known composers, including Venezuelan composer Juan Bautista Plaza, Peruvian composers Edgar Valcárcel, Theodoro Valcárcel, and Rosa Mercedes Ayarza de Morales, and Colombian composer Jaime Léon. Each composer represents a milestone in the development of art song composition in South America. All three recitals were recorded and are available on compact discs in the Digital Repository at the University of Maryland (DRUM). This dissertation was completed in May, 2011.

Cobalt complexes bearing scorpionate ligands: Synthesis, characterization, cytotoxicity and DNA cleavage

A number of novel, water-stable redox-active cobalt complexes of the C-functionalized tripodal ligands tris(pyrazolyl)methane XC(pz)(3) (X = HOCH2, CH2OCH2Py or CH2OSO2Me) are reported along with their effects on DNA. The compounds were isolated as air-stable solids and fully characterized by IR and FIR spectroscopies, ESI-MS(+/-), cyclic voltammetry, controlled potential electrolysis, elemental analysis and, in a number of cases, also by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. They showed moderate cytotoxicity in vitro towards HCT116 colorectal carcinoma and HepG2 hepatocellular carcinoma human cancer cell lines. This viability loss is correlated with an increase of tumour cell lines apoptosis. Reactivity studies with biomolecules, such as reducing agents, H2O2, plasmid DNA and UV-visible titrations were also performed to provide tentative insights into the mode of action of the complexes. Incubation of Co(II) complexes with pDNA induced double strand breaks, without requiring the presence of any activator. This pDNA cleavage appears to be mediated by O-centred radical species.

Un siècle, deux littératures : le XXe siècle français

En raison d’un décloisonnement et d’une diffraction critiques manifestes, il n’est pas aisé de tracer les contours de la recherche québécoise portant sur la littérature française du xxe siècle. Il appert néanmoins que la recherche au Québec présente des lignes de forces, des « tangentes », que peut révéler une étude attentive tant des parcours des chercheurs, des problématiques qui les intéressent et des principaux lieux de collaboration, que des oeuvres et des corpus qui retiennent leur attention. Ainsi, tout en problématisant la pertinence qu’il y a à faire du xxe siècle la mesure d’un découpage disciplinaire, cet article propose un examen à la fois scrupuleux et subjectif de la recherche québécoise afin d’établir quels sont les points de convergence ou de démarcation susceptibles de mieux définir son apport spécifique. L’observation d’une répartition très nette entre la « littérature du xxe siècle » et celle du « contemporain » (allant des années 1980 jusqu’à aujourd’hui) permet par ailleurs de mettre en parallèle « deux » lectures du xxe siècle, mais aussi « deux » littératures relativement distinctes ayant leurs enjeux critiques spécifiques

Gamma-EC : una herramienta para formar a los mandos intermedios de las escuelas de bomberos.

El proyecto Gammma-EC recibe fondos europeos para conseguir el objetivo de mejorar la formación de los mandos intermedios de las escuelas de bomberos de 4 paises de la Comunidad Europea (España, Francia, Italia, Países Bajos). El objetivo del proyecto es diseñar dos herramientas: un programa multimédia y un juego de simulación. Las temáticas que se abordan son los grandes fuegos forestales y los accidentes químicos.

Activation of pro-survival Akt and ERK1/2 signalling pathways underlie the anti-apoptotic effects of flavanones in cortical neurons

There is growing interest in the potential beneficial effects of flavonoids in the aging and diseased brain. We have investigated the potential of the flavanone hesperetin and two of its metabolites, hesperetin-7-O-beta-D-glucuronide and 5-nitro-hesperetin, to inhibit oxidative stress-induced neuronal apoptosis. Exposure of cortical neurons to hydrogen peroxide led to the activation of apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1 via its de-phosphorylation at Ser963, the phosphorylation of c-jun N-terminal kinase and c-Jun (Ser73) and the activation of caspase 3 and caspase 9. Whilst hesperetin glucuronide failed to exert protection, both hesperetin and 5-nitro-hesperetin were effective at preventing neuronal apoptosis via a mechanism involving the activation/phosphorylation of both Akt/protein kinase B and extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1 and 2 (ERK1/2). Protection against oxidative injury and the activation of Akt and ERK1/2 followed a bell-shaped response and was most apparent at 100 nmol/L concentrations. The activation of ERK1/2 and Akt by flavanones led to the inhibition of the pro-apoptotic proteins, apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1, by phosphorylation at Ser83 and Bad, by phosphorylation at both Ser136 and Ser112 and to the inhibition of peroxide-induced caspase 9 and caspase 3 activation. Thus, flavanones may protect neurons against oxidative insults via the modulation of neuronal apoptotic machinery.
