Commencing from the question “what makes mysticism feminine?” (a medical-historical conception of female bodies being receptive to some forms of mystical experiences? following an idea of gendered embodiment, a specific feminine spiritual corporeality?), the presence of forms of violence preceding the beatification or sanctification of women as victim souls caught my attention.Examples like Laura
This article examines two of the most canonical plays in all of Scandinavian and European modern drama – Henrik Ibsen’s Hedda Gabler (1890) and August Strindberg’s A Dream Play (1902) – through the prism of the history of knowledge. The primary claim of the article is that these two plays are paradigmatic literary representations and critiques of one of the main historical processes pertaining to
The purpose of this study was to examine how different Swedish municipalities proceeded to transform the sanction youth service to practice in the context of the laws, the preparatory works and the guidelines which concern the sanction. Semi-structured interviews were used to acquire the material along with a so-called interview guide, which consisted of a list of fairly specific themes that were
Article 102 TFEU prohibits any abuse by one or more undertakings in a dominant position. A dominant undertaking offering exclusivity rebates falls under the prohibition laid down in Article 102 TFEU. The treatment of exclusivity rebates in case law has been a controversy, the first cases held a strict approach towards exclusivity rebates and established that exclusivity rebates are to be assessed
The most limiting factor in heart transplantation is the lack of donor organs. With enhanced prediction of outcome, it may be possible to increase the life-years from the organs that become available. Applications of machine learning to tabular data, typical of clinical decision support, pose the practical question of interpretation, which has technical and potential ethical implications. In parti
Radar data at C-band has shown great potential for the monitoring of soil and canopy hydric conditions of wheat crops. In this study, the C-band Sentinel-1 time series including the backscattering coefficients σ0 at VV and VH polarization, the polarization ratio (PR) and the interferometric coherence ρ are first analyzed with the support of experimental data gathered on three plots of irrigated wi
In this paper the characterisation and portrayal of northern europeans in Roman late Republican and Imperial literature is examined. It looks specifically at the employment by Roman authors of animal comparisons and analogies as part of this characterisation and explores the reasons for which they are used, including the choice of vocabulary and imagery. This also involves a broader examination of
Precarious employment (PE) is a well-known social determinant of health and health inequalities. However, as most previous studies have focused on physical and mental well-being, less is known about the social-related outcomes (ie, social precarity) associated with precarious arrangements. This cross-sectional study aims to investigate whether PE is associated with social precarity in a working po
The article presents a theoretical framework for analyzing domestic innovative capability in relation to industrial espionage, drawing on material from the Soviet military aerospace sector, 1946–1990. It employs a structured comparative case study of six Soviet aircraft systems, which are compared to their closest Western equivalent. Three ideal types are used to categorize each case: copycat (mos
En översättningsvolym som innehåller ett brett urval av Lasse Söderbergs (f. 1931) dikter, från 1955 till 2017. Medöversättare är den amerikanska poeten och översättaren Carolyn Forché (f. 1950), professor vid Georgetown University.
From the end of the twelfth to the fourteenth century, a second wave of towns emerged along the coasts and estuaries of the south Baltic Sea area. During this period, urban communities acquired a high degree of independence. Extensive changes to house building accompanied the development. Timber-framing and masonry emerged as new constructions and became the dominant forms of architecture. The art
Numerous broad insights have emerged in the last decades concerning the invasive non-indigenous round goby (Neogobius melanostomus) and its expanding presence in the Baltic Sea. The waters surrounding the Danish isles are the final frontiers separating the Baltic Sea from the North Sea, and although they offer highly favourable habitats, the biotic resistance in Öresund by native competitors might
Offer för brott mot mänskliga rättigheter orsakade av multinationella företags aktiviteter möter stora rättsliga luckor och hinder när de försöker utkräva kompensation för skador. Bolagsrätten som täcker dessa situationer har inte ännu anpassats till förändringarna som den globaliserade världen inneburit, och de komplexa strukturerna som multinationella företag består av idag. Principen som innebVictims of human rights abuses linked to activities of multinational corporations face huge legal gaps and challenges when trying to access compensation for harm. Corporate law covering these scenarios have not yet adapted to the changes of a globalized world and the complex structures of today’s multinational corporations (MNCs). The principle of separate legal entities is one such obstacle keep
The liver oil from C. monstrosa (rat fish) has traditionally been used as a natural remedy in the area around Skagerrak, since it is believed to have a wound healing and analgesic effects. On its back the rat fish carries a vigorous venom spine connected to glandular cells, which secrets toxins. A previous study shows that extract from the liver and venom glands had a cytotoxic activity on A. naup
Cirrus clouds are high-level ice clouds covering ≈ 30% of Earth’s surface. The cirrus clouds ice crystals can be formed by heterogeneous or homogeneous nucleation, where temperatures for heterogeneous nucleation was set to -38 - -30 °C and for homogeneous nucleation below -42 °C. The study will focus on microphysical properties of cirrus clouds in the tropics, 0-30°, and the mid-latitudes, 30-60°,
In the ever evolving and ambiguous environment of VAT treatment of sales of shares, the underlying purpose test has arisen as a new form of controversy. While it seems to be a viable method for establishing in specific circumstances a strong enough direct and immediate link to guarantee deduction also for costs incurred in relation to an exempt or out-of-scope share disposal, the test’s nature and

One of them is the compatibility of the interpreta
