‎First French edition of Amici's famous paper ""Dei microscopii catadiottrici"" first published in Italian in 1818, in which he describes his invention of a new type of catadioptric microscope, the first with successfull achromatic lenses. The invention had a great impact on biology - Amici himself was able to see the streeming movements of protoplasm in the Alga Chara and in examining the hairs on the stigma of Purslane he saw a tube given off by the pollen grain, and the granular content os prerform streaming movementys like those in Chara, an importent feature in plant fertilization.‎

‎Medieval Holy Women in the Christian Tradition c.1100-c.1500 9782503531809‎

‎, Brepols Publishers, 2010 hardcover XI 748 p., 3 b/w ill., 7 b/w line art, 156 x 234 mm Languages: English, Latin, French . ISBN 9782503531809.‎

‎ The first comprehensive survey of the major - but much neglected - contribution made by holy women to the religious culture of the later Middle Ages. Medieval Holy Women in the Christian Tradition offers the first wide-ranging study of the remarkable women who contributed to the efflorescence of female piety and visionary experience in Europe between 1100 and 1500. This volume offers essays by prominent scholars in the field which extend the boundaries of our previous knowledge and understanding of medieval holy women. While some essays provide new perspectives on the familiar names of the unofficial canon of mulieres sanctae, many others bring into the spotlight women less familiar now, but influential in their own time and richly deserving of scholarly attention. The five general essays establish a context for understanding the issues affecting female religious witness in the later Middle Ages. The geographical arrangement of the volume allows the reader to develop an awareness of the particular cultural and religious forces in seven different regions and to recognize how these influenced the writing and reception of the holy women of that area. Seventeen major figures have essays devoted exclusively to each of them; in addition, the survey chapters on each region introduce the reader to many more. The extensive bibliographies which follow each chapter encourage further reading and study. Alastair Minnis was Director of the Centre for Medieval Studies and Head of the Department of English at the University of York, and is currently Douglas Tracy Smith Professor of English at Yale University. A Fellow of the Medieval Academy of America and of the English Association, he is the author of six monographs and the editor or co-editor of fifteen further volumes. Rosalynn Voaden (D.Phil., University of York, UK) is the author of God?s Words, Women?s Voices: The Discernment of Spirits in the Writing of Late-Medieval Women Visionaries, and is the editor or co-editor of several volumes in the field. She was a Research Fellow at St Anne?s College, Oxford, and is currently Associate Professor of English at Arizona State University. ‎

‎First appearance of Ampere's notable memoir (issued in 4 parts) in which he tries to set up a classification system for the elementary entities in chemistry tieing the elements together in a natural classification, a dim foreshadowing of the periodic table.""Here (in the paper offered) he drew attention to the similarities between Lavoisier's and his fellowers classification of elements in terms of their reactions with oxygen and Linnaeus' classification of plants in terms of their sexual organs. Bernard de Jussieu had successfully challenged Linnaeus with a natural system that took the whole plant into account and sought affinities between all parts of the plant, not just the flowers, as the basic classification. Ampère now wished to do the same thing for chemistry. By discovering a natural classification, i.e., one that tied the elements together by real and rather than artificial relations, Ampère hoped to prove a new insight into chemical reactions. His classificatory scheme, therefore, was not merely an ordering ofthe elements but, like the later periodic table of Dimitri Mendeleev, a true instrument of chemical research. Ampères system was as artificial as Lavoisier's...Thepapermay be noted, however, as an early attempt to find relationships between elements that would bring some order into the constantly growing number of elementary bodies.""(DSB I, p. 143).‎

‎Het on/werkelijke theater Michael Borremans neemt stilaan een belangrijke plaats in de hedendaagse schilderkunst in. Zijn schilderijen en tekeningen hangen in tal van buitenlandse musea, onder meer in het MOMA in New York en het Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles. Dit boek biedt u nu een overzicht van recente en minder recente tekeningen.De tekeningen, die een oeuvre op zich vormen, zijn voor Michael Borremans een middel om na te denken, om de verbeelding in gang te zetten en ideeen te ontwikkelen. Ze zijn vaak een soort van aftasten en verkennen van concepten voor sculpturen, ensceneringen en zelfs architectuur. Ze tonen projecten die wellicht nooit gerealiseerd zullen worden, maar de ideeen vinden via de tekeningen hun visualisering.Net als zijn schilderijen lijken Borremans' tekeningen gestolde fragmenten uit een onbestemde en ongrijpbare tijd. Ze brengen de toeschouwer in een somber universum, wars van felle kleuren, waarin personages met een zekere gelatenheid vreemde dingen doen of bizarre rituelen uitvoeren. Via gedetailleerde ensceneringen maakt hij ons deelgenoot van complexe, surrealistische scenario's, die zich afspelen in een ambigue wereld.Voor zijn tekeningen, die relatief klein zijn en waaraan hij heel lang werkt, put Borremans vaak uit kranten, boeken, magazines en fotoarchieven van de eerste helft van de vorige eeuw. Hij maakt beeldelementen van hun oorspronkelijke context los door in te zoomen op details, objecten uit verschillende bronnen samen te brengen of ze allemaal in een verschillende schaal af te beelden. Hij speelt met referenties, laat elementen weg of voegt er toe. Borremans combineert potlood, aquarel, balpen, witte inkt en wassingen met koffie of een tikje olieverf voor het creeren van zijn subversief universum vol tegenstellingen. Dit boek toont u de wereld van Michael Borremans. Een wereld van metaforen. Een intrigerende wereld.‎
