Dokumentation och analys av Skaramissalets två band

This report is a documentation and analyse of the bindings of the Skara Missal belonging to the diocesan and provincial library of Skara in Sweden. The Missal is dated to the 12th century and bound in two bindings. The boards of binding no 2 have been examined with dendro-chronological methods and dated after 1264. The two bindings are different in many aspects; both of them showing technical feat

Dietary exposure to persistent organochlorine compounds and health effects in women and their infants - Epidemiological studies on birthweight, cancer incidence, and mortality

In Sweden the main exposure route for both polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) and other persistent organochlorine compounds is through consumption of fatty fish species from the Baltic Sea (the eastern coast of Sweden). Cohorts of fishermen's wives from the Swedish east and west coasts were established. Interviewed east and west coast cohort women ate locally caught fish at least twice as often as wo

Mortality and cancer morbidity among cement workers

OBJECTIVE: To explore associations between exposure to cement dust and cause specific mortality and tumour morbidity, especially gastrointestinal tumours. DESIGN: A retrospective cohort study. SUBJECTS AND SETTING: 2400 men, employed for at least 12 months in two Swedish cement factories. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Cause specific morality from death certificates (1952-86). Cancer morbidity from tum

“Blond flowing hair”, “tumid lips,” “rigid posture”, and “choleric temperament” : Universal aspirations and racial asymmetries in Linnaeus' definition of Homo sapiens

The starting point of my analysis will be Reinhard Koselleck’s hypothesis of historical asymmetrical counterconcepts. His belief in a conceptual and ideological global dualism (Hellene/Barbarian, Christian/Heathen, Superman/Subhuman), in which a collective Self is contrasted to a generic Other of negation, will be tested on Linnaeus’ 18th-century classifications of human varieties (races). Though

Current issues in pictorial semiotics. Lecture three: From the Critique of the Iconicity Critique to Pictorality

In order to show why Eco, Goodman, and others were wrong in their classical critique of iconicity, we will pursue a close reading of Peirce, but we will interpret his text in accordance with more recent findings in cognitive and perceptual psychology. We will arrive at the conclusion that there are two very different kinds of iconicity, which we will call primary and secondary iconicity. Even so,

The gonadotropin receptors FSH-R and LH-R of Atlantic halibut (Hippoglossus hippoglossus)—2. Differential follicle expression and asynchronous oogenesis

The biological activity and spatio–temporal expression patterns of the gonadotropin receptors FSH-R and LH-R were examined in the repetitive spawner Atlantic halibut to elucidate the gonadotropic regulation of the asynchronous follicle development. The cloned receptors were expressed in mammalian COS-7 cells, and stimulation with sea bass FSH and LH increased the cAMP production. The halibut FSH-R
