In the Grödinge project pottery was recovered from the five Neolithic sites, totaling c. 280 kg. A selected sample of pottery from four of these sites, i.e. the Eklundshov, Smällan, Kyrktorp and Kvedesta sites, has been studied more closely and also analysed technologically.

I denna antologi diskuteras med fokus på nordiska förhållanden sambandet mellan kristen religion och konstruktionen av manlighet under perioden 1840 till 1940. En central fråga är hur kristna ideal som exempelvis ödmjukhet, mildhet och självförsakelse, vilka i den borgerliga genusdiskursen kommit att knytas till kvinnokönet, inverkade på konstruktionen av kristen manlighet och vilka uttryck detta

Environmental and political concerns, together with new legislations, are pushing for a fuel shift in the power industry and more generally for many thermal applications. Adding to the coming decrease of oil and natural availability (or price increase), it opens avenues for new fuels. Among those, alcohols are strong candidates. In fact, short alcohols are easily produced and stored and require on

Biometric identification is an important security application that requires non-intrusive capture and real-time processing. Security systems based on fingerprints and retina patterns have been widely developed, but can be easily falsified. Recently, identification by vein patterns has been suggested as a promising alternative. In this paper an existing feature extraction algorithm, that has been d

Surveying Syrian Arabic narrative text, this article explores the use of a switch of verb forms to indicate larger digressions from the main line of a story. The study follows similar analyses of other varieties of Arabic as well as Biblical Hebrew. Isaksson (2007, 2009a) identified specific marking for comments of circumstantial character not only on phrase and clause level but also on text level

What is matter? One of the major themes in Emanuel Swedenborg’s thinking is the relation between the material and the immaterial, body and soul. During all his life, as a scientist and a visionary, Swedenborg (1688–1772) pondered on these questions. How can we get knowledge about the invisible? The world beyond the scope of our senses? The issue here is to explain the cognitive foundation of his m

This thesis focuses on the C-terminal G3 region of the large aggregating proteoglycans that are found in complex with hyaluronan in the extracellular matrix. The G3 region contains a C-type lectin domain that binds different extracellular matrix proteins playing an integral role in tissue organization during development and remodeling. Here we affinity purify the proteoglycan aggrecan via one of i

Skönlitteraturen illustrerar samhällsvetenskapliga kärn­resonemang, den väcker nya frågor om människans existentiella villkor och den sprider nytt ljus över vårt sätt att se på världen. Men trots att samhällsvetenskapen kan sägas ha uppstått under samma epok som den moderna litteraturen, och trots att de har fascinationen inför samhället och det s­ociala samspelet gemensamt, så har skönlitterature

Reviews the book, From Trauma to Transformation by Muriel Prince Warren (see record 2006-03012-000). The reviewer believes this book is a disorganized, rambling, uninformed, and poorly written text. The only reason the reviewer finished reading the book was because of the commitment to write this review. The book's scholarship-or lack of it-is even worse than the book's organization. The author ma
