‎First printing of this paper in which they developed the theory of hormonal control of the internal secretion, a milestone discovery by Bayliss and Starling in 1902, which introduced a quite new field in physiology and medicine, the discovery of the FIRST HORMONE, which the they named ""Secretin"". They here tries to find out how this new body could be decribed chemically, and one of the conclusions were ""It is not precipitated by tannic acid, thus excluding bodies of alkaloid nature as well as di-amido compounds. This evidence, slight thought it is, points to secretin being a body of relatively small molecular weight and not a colloid. It may be compared to the active principle of the suprarenal glands, adrenalin, which has been obtained in a crystallic form and the cemical constitution of which has been approximately determined...""(p. 314-15).Garrison & Morton: 1121.‎

‎This book is a study of how sound is employed in a variety of Latin and early French works. In five chapters, titled to reflect the author's attention to and interest in sound ('The Big Bang', 'The Blares of Power', 'The White Noise of Perfection', 'Parasitic Homophones', and 'Sonus Mortis'), plus a substantial introduction ('Noise as Gloss') and conclusion ('The Ambivalence of Noise'), Cazelles shows that sound plays a much more crucial role in literature than we may have realized and that noise has a textuality. She adopts a methodology that combines the technique of sensorial anthropology with that of textual analysis and focuses on the culture of literate orality in pre-modern Europe as she analyzes a variety of textually-transcribed sounds in an attempt to disclose their significance in enriching our understanding of literature and, in parallel, in an attempt to assess the value of literature in enriching our understanding of aural and oral phenomena.

‎Septuagint of Ruth. Translation Technique, Textual History, and Theological Issues‎

‎, Brepols, 2024 Paperback, 293 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:32 tables b/w., Language(s):English, Greek, Hebrew. ISBN 9782503612263.‎

‎Summary For many years, the Septuagint of Ruth (LXX-Ruth) has been considered a literal translation. Several authors have emphasized the similarities between the Greek text and the Masoretic Text, while others have also noted the divergences. In the wake of this second stream, this book seeks to answer the crucial question: How can we nuance the definition of ?literalism? for LXX-Ruth, and which innovations and specifics can be detected in this text? A fresh analysis of the Greek rendering of the Hebrew proper names, toponyms, hapax legomena as well as legal aspects makes it possible to develop new perspectives on the translation technique of LXX-Ruth and to highlight several characteristics of this text. This volume, moreover, extends the discussion by including the analysis of the theological accents of LXX-Ruth and an up-to-date presentation of its textual history including the fragments of the book in the Dead Sea Scrolls. Overall, this volume enhances our understanding of the linguistic and literary background of the LXX, as well as its specific features.

With these researches Becquerel obtained his doctorate from the Faculty of Sciences of Paris (1888) and election to the Academy of Sciences (1889).""(DSB I, p.558).The volume has other notable papers by Chappuis et Riviere, E.

‎First printing of an importent paper in the history of photochemistry as he here discovered some effects of coloured rays of the solar spectrum.""Edmund Becquerel seems to be the first person to observe, in 1840 (in the paper offered), that the latent daguerreotype image which had been underexposed could be intensified if re-exposed to the yellow and red rays of the spectrum and then developed with mercury... Explaining this phenomenon, Becquerel called the yellow-red continuing rays (""rayon continuateurs"") in contrast to the primary rays, which exicited or produced the light image and which he called exiciting rays (""rayons excitateurs"").... They are dependent on the wave lenght of the light.""(Eder ""History of Photography"", pp. 265 ff.)""Becquerel was an early experimenter in photography. In 1840 he discovered that the silver halides, natively insensitive to red and yellow light, became sensitive to that part of the spectrum in proportion to their exposure to blue, violet and ultraviolet light, allowing Daguerreotypes and other photographic materials to be developed by bathing in strong red or yellow light rather than by chemical treatment. In practice this technique was rarely used."" (Wikipedia).‎

‎First appearance of Becquerel's first two pioneering studies on lluminiscent phenomena. ""It was in these studies that Becquerel first described the phosphoroscope, an instrument of his own invention consisting of a box sealed with two disks mounted on the same axis and pierced with holes arranged in such a way that light could not at any one time pass through the entire apparatus. By rapidly revolving these perforated disks, an observer could continously view substances in the dark only fractions of a second after they had been exposed to brilliant light"" and by regulating the speed of the revolution of the disks, one could measure the lenght of time that substances continued to glow after the exposure to light. Using this device, Becquerel was able to identify many new phosphorescent substances and to show that the phenomenon G.C. Stokes had named fluorescence in 1852 was in reality only phosphorescence of an extremely short duration....In this manner substances could be analyzed without physical or chemical alteration.""(DSB I, p. 556).Becquerel dis his most importent work in optics on the phenomena of luminescence. In the middle years of the nineteenth century, he virtually monopollized the significant discoveries made inthis field.(DSB).‎

‎First printing of this important paper, which together with Becquerel's paper ""Mémoire sur les effets èlectriques produits sous l'influence des rayons solaires"" and ""Recherches sur les effets de la radiation chimique de la lumière solaire, au moyen des courants électriques"", published the same year, marks the beginning of Solar-Cell-Energy, the first step in a long path to solar panels, and a technology of immense importence for humanity. In 1923 Albert Einstein received the Nobel Prize for his theories explaining the photoelectric effect (his 1905-paper).The ""photovoltaic effect"" is the basic physical process through which a solar cell converts sunlight into electricity. In 1839, nineteen-year-old Edmund Becquerel, a French experimental physicist, discovered the photovoltaic effect while experimenting with an electrolytic cell made up of two metal electrodes. Becquerel found that certain materials would produce small amounts of electric current when exposed to light.‎
