Syftet med texten är att undersöka attityder till historiska händelser i Pompejis materiella arv; att svara på frågan varför man valde att ge fast form åt minnesbildning genom en undersökning av hur och var lokala händelser memorerats och en reflektion över vilken sorts händelser som förts fram. I vidaste mening handlar texten om romersk historiebruk utanför den styrande staden. Kontrasten mellan

As a contribution to the discussion on the relevance of the baroque concept in Swedish literary history, the article conducts a case study by testing the concept on the history of a specific genre: the Aesopic fable. The argument takes its starting point in the analysis of German fable history by the pioneering baroque scholar Wolfgang Kayser who asserted a lack of German fable writing during the

Protein dynamics contribute to protein function on different time scales. Ultrafast X-ray diffraction snapshots can visualize the location and amplitude of atom displacements after perturbation. Since amplitudes of ultrafast motions are small, high-quality X-ray diffraction data is necessary for detection. Diffraction from bovine trypsin crystals using single femtosecond X-ray pulses was recorded

The aim of the dissertation is to explore how actors within the food value chain form meaningful relationships, practically and emotionally, with food and through food. It analyzes the making of these relations through the lens of organic, local and heritage food. It demonstrates that the impetus common to various food initiatives – such as organic, local and heritage food – is that they try to br

These same middlemen are often criticized for destroying valuable connections between producers and c

Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the short-term safety and efficacy of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) with the LOTUS Edge system. Background: The LOTUS Edge system was commercially re-released in April 2019. The authors report the first European experience with this device. Methods: A multicenter, single-arm, retrospective registry was initiated to evaluate short-te
