Keats, Ecocriticism and the Poetics of Place

The poetry of place is usually thought of as a form of nature writing imbued in the material and local, contrasting themes and motifs of the literary convention with authenticity and concretion. John Keats tends, on the contrary, to be associated with the attempt to escape materiality, favoring instead the artificial blessings of imagination. Unsurprisingly, few ecocritical studies have taken an iThe poetry of place is usually thought of as a form of nature writing imbued in the material and local, contrasting themes and motifs of the literary convention with authenticity and concretion.

Select, Display, and Sell : Curation practices in the bookshop

Bookstores are one of the most visible places for books in the public space. No bookstore can ever offer every book available; rather it is in its selection that each bookstore is unique.

Smallholders’ Demand for and Access to Private Sector Extension Services : A Case Study of Contracted Cotton Producers in Northern Tanzania

This paper examines demand for and access to private-sector extension services by contracted cotton producers in northern Tanzania. Data from a non-random survey of 520 smallholders show that only 21.9% received any extension and only 4.6% received extension from the cotton ginnery. Wealthier households were three times more likely to receive extension from any provider. While the public sector re

Pathogenetic Mechanisms in Soft Tissue Tumors

Soft tissue tumors (STT) constitute a heterogeneous group of tumors that arise in tissues of mesenchymal origin. They are currently classified according to morphology and resemblance to normal tissue into over 100 subtypes. Differentiation between the different subtypes can sometimes be difficult, and along with the fact that little is known about the mechanisms of STT development, this makes adeq

The impact of alteplase on pulmonary graft function in donation after circulatory death - An experimental study

OBJECTIVE: Lung transplantation is hampered by the lack of organs resulting in deaths on the waiting list. The usage of donation after circulatory death (DCD) lungs would dramatically increase donor availability. The most optimal organ preservation method, and the need for antithrombotic and fibrinolytic treatment to prevent thrombosis in the donor lungs is currently on debate. The present study i

Lobotomizing the Virtual Violators of the Establishment’s Guardians

Gender studies have lately paid special attention to the oscillating condition of masculinity in an ever-changing society (see Shira Tarrant, Men Speak Out, 2008). As these aspects were taken into consideration especially in the United States, a very good representation of this straggling sexuality is to be found in Ken Kesey’s novel One Flew over the Cuckoo’s Nest. Oppressing the mental oppositio
