Sommario/riassunto |
|
At present the study of functional and ecological wood anatomy enjoys a vigorous renaissance and plays a pivotal role in plant and ecosystem biology, plant evolution, and global change research. This book contains a selection of papers presented at the successful meetings of the International Association of Wood Anatomists and the Cost-Action STReESS (Studying Tree Responses to extreme Events: a Synthesis) held in Naples in April 2013. Four review papers address (1) the hydraulic architecture of the earliest land plants, (2) the general phenomenon of axial conduit tapering in trees, (3) the hydraulic and biomechanical optimization in one of the most important plantation grown tree species, Norway Spruce, and (4) cellular and subcellular changes in the cambium in response to environmental factors. Three papers review or introduce new tools to observe the 3-D structure and functioning of wood, and novel tools for quantitative image analysis in tree ring series. Finally, five papers report original research on environmental effects on wood structure, including studies on plastic responses in European beech, effects of fire or late summer rains on Mediterranean Aleppo Pine, and the potential for using arctic shrubs or tropical deciduous trees in dendrochronological and climatological studies. Reprinted from IAWA Journal 34 (4), 2013. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
Entre 1830 et 1975, le statut social, économique et politique des femmes, en Grande-Bretagne comme ailleurs, s'est profondément transformé. Des avancées, certes réelles, furent gagnées par les femmes britanniques, mais au prix d'innombrables revers, déceptions et faux départs. Présentées et traduites ici pour la première fois en français, les quatorze lois fondamentales qui ont été choisies retracent les grandes tendances de l'évolution de la condition féminine outre-Manche. Loin de s'en tenir au texte seul, l'auteur s'attache à rappeler les circonstances historiques qui entourent le vote de chaque loi, de leur conception intellectuelle à leur mise en pratique par l'État, sans oublier d'inclure et c'est là l'une des originalités de l'approche de Neil Davie, les réactions souvent conflictuelles qu'elles ont suscitées de la part des intéressées. Cette étude permet aux lecteurs et aux lectrices d'explorer ce que le législateur a voulu permettre et interdire aux femmes. Le texte juridique apparaît ainsi comme un outil précieux d'analyse pour cerner les mentalités et interroger le rôle et le statut des femmes durant cette période. L'ouvrage s'adresse aux juristes, aux spécialistes de l'histoire et de la civilisation britannique comme de l'histoire des femmes et de l'étude du genre, mais également à tous ceux et à toutes celles qui s'intéressent aux droits des femmes en général. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
This book examines the construction of adolescent girlhood across a range of genres in the closing decades of the nineteenth century. It argues that there was a preoccupation with defining, characterising and naming adolescent girlhood at the fin de siècle. These 'daughters of today', 'juvenile spinsters' and 'modern girls', as the press variously termed them, occupying a borderland between childhood and |

womanhood, were seen to be inextricably connected to late nineteenth-century modernity: they were the products of changes taking place in education and employment and of the challenge to traditional conceptions of femininity presented by the Woman Question. The author argues that the shifting nature of the modern adolescent girl made her a malleable cultural figure, and a meeting point for many of the prevalent debates associated with fin-de-siècle society. By juxtaposing diverse material, from children's books and girls' magazines to New Woman novels andpsychological studies, the author contextualises adolescent girlhood as a distinct but complex cultural category at the end of the nineteenth century. |
