Imagetext and ekphrasis as chances of revival in translation studies

Translation Studies has crossed a tumultuous interval of theorization. But has it passed the linguistic limits instituted by a semiotician like Umberto Eco? Wouldn’t be the time to access more courageously the intersemiotic interregnum with its heterogeneous transfer of signs? As it happens in advertising, concrete poetry, tattoos, and stage or filmed version of famous texts? If we have gradually

Smart Brandbekämpning - Användning av data i strategiskt brandsäkerhetsarbete

Följande rapport är genomförd inom forskningsprojektet Bostadsbränder i storstadsområden - rumsliga skillnader och brandsäkerhetsarbete i den socialt fragmenterade staden. Projektet är finansierat av MSB och har Institutionen för Urbana studier på Malmö universitet och Institutionen för kulturgeografi och ekonomisk geografi vid Lunds universitet som bas. Syftet med denna rapport är att ge en övers

Episoder 2 : Hörspel

Episoder utspelar sig i en vintrig småstad där gatljus speglar sig i den kalla snön och där människor befinner sig i rörelse; bort från andra och bort från sig själva. handlingen kretasar kring det möjliga och omöjliga i mötet med andra människor, om avgrunden mellan vad en människa är inför andra och vad hon är inför sig själv.Del 2 handlar om suget efter nåt att dricka och om ensamhet och om sjö

DIFFERENT SPATIAL VISUALIZATION TECHNIQUES FOR FIRE PREVENTION IN STOCKHOLM AND GÖTEBORG

The aim with this paper is to examine how different GIS-based visualization methods can be applied and come to practical uses in the emergency service’s fire preventive work. These techniques motivate and facilitate various forms of fire prevention such as selection of areas or neighborhoods, blocks or buildings before home visits, identification and targeting of different risk groups and customiz

Man's Desire to be God

"Man's Desire to be God" is musical suite stretching from blues, rock, jazz to electronic music and classical music. Through particular performance methods in playing, singing, recording and producing the musical elements are blended together in a most mix. The concept and texts starts out from the sect around Charles Manson in the end of the 60s, out from where a story emerges that revolves aroun

ADDRESSING CASCADING CONSEQUENCES FOR CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE AND VITAL SOCIETAL FUNCTIONS IN FLOODING EVENTS

Although there have been significant advances in the research field of critical infrastructures and vital societal functions during the last decade, there still exist many challenges in implementing and carrying out studies in practice. One of these challenges is a feasible method for mapping, analysing and visualising the cascading consequences that arise for critical infrastructures and societal

The Cambrian–Ordovician succession at Lanna, Sweden : stratigraphy and depositional environments

A ca 20 m thick succession of upper Furongian (Cambrian Stage 10) through Middle Ordovician (Darriwilian) strata exposed at Lanna, in the province of Närke, south-central Sweden, is described. The upper Furongian is represented by the Alum Shale Formation and reflects an overall shallowing trend that ultimately resulted in emergence above sea level and subaerial conditions. Hence, as in most other

Dating of sedimentary rock intervals using visual comparison of carbon isotope records : a comment on the recent paper by Bergström et al. concerning the age of the Winneshiek Shale

The recently published Lethaia paper by Bergström et al. (https://doi.org/10.1111/let.12269) on the age of the Ordovician Winneshiek Shale (Iowa, USA), and the impact that formed the Decorah crater which hosts this rock unit, is an interesting scientific contribution, although there are a number of problems with the interpretations and data presentation that merit comment. Due mainly to a lack of

CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURES, GISCIENCE AND RISK GOVERNANCE: A LITERATURE REVIEW OF SYNERGISTIC RESEARCH OPPORTUNITIES

Critical infrastructures today are highly interdependent and increasingly important in providing services to the rest of the society. At the same time, each type of infrastructure requires specialised knowledge to design and manage. Therefore, to get a better understanding of how the infrastructures and the effect of interdependencies work as a whole, it is necessary to have an interdisciplinary a

Utvecklad riskhantering för samhällsviktiga verksamheter avseende översvämningsrisker

Konsekvenser till följd av stora översvämningar och andra geografiskt utbredda händelser är ett återkommande fenomen världen över. Befolkningstäta områden med sammanflätade nätverk av kritiska infrastrukturer och samhällsviktiga verksamheter tillhör de mest drabbade. De komplexa beroendena mellan olika former av samhällsviktiga verksamheter kan leda till kaskadeffekter, därkonsekvenserna utifrån e

Up and down, light and heavy, fast and slow—but where?

Vertical amusement rides let your body experience the tickling sensation of feeling light, but also feeling much heavier than as usual, due to velocity changes as you move up and down. Family rides offer different possibilities to visualize the forces that are experienced by your accelerating body. This paper presents a number of different ways to view and experience the motion in a small vertical

Spin rotation effects in diffractive electroproduction of heavy quarkonia

In this work we present for the first time the comprehensive study of the Melosh spin rotation effects in diffractive electroproduction of S-wave heavy quarkonia off a nucleon target. Such a study has been performed within the color dipole approach using, as an example and a reference point, two popular parametrizations of the dipole cross section and two potentials describing the interaction bet
