Sommario/riassunto |
|
Members of the genus Campylobacter are commonly found in the gastrointestinal tract of mammals and birds, and can be commensal or pathogenic in nature. For example, Campylobacter jejuni can be a harmless commensal organism in poultry and other avian and animal hosts, but in humans, it is pathogenic and the most common cause of bacterial gastroenteritis worldwide. In recent years, the application of DNA sequencing and 'omics' technologies to large numbers of isolates has allowed Campylobacter research to advance rapidly, revealing fascinating new insights into the cellular biology and evolution |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
L’Esthétique musicale classique et romantique (1988), l’ultime ouvrage de Carl Dahlhaus, est une présentation de la réflexion musicale entre l’« époque-seuil » (Kosellek) située autour de 1770 et les décennies tardives du XIXe siècle, qui marquent le début de la modernité. Même s’il traite essentiellement de l’Allemagne, cet ouvrage est universel, dans la mesure où l’esthétique musicale allemande, en particulier durant la décennie décisive ouverte par la Critique de la faculté de juger de Kant (1790) et close par les Fantaisies sur l’art de Ludwig Tieck (1799), a été à la pointe de l’évolution européenne. Le romantisme fut un phénomène d’esthétique musicale avant de devenir un phénomène musical ; il s’affirma comme mode d’écoute avant de pénétrer les styles et les formes de la composition. Parmi les faits les plus curieux de l’époque sur laquelle le livre est centré, figure la simultanéité des esthétiques musicales classique et romantique. Néanmoins, l’ |

esthétique musicale classique demeurait vers 1800 rudimentaire, parce qu’il n’y avait pas de liaison efficace entre Vienne, le lieu du classicisme musical, et le foyer essentiel de développement de la réflexion sur la musique, le centre et le nord de l’Allemagne. À certains égards, le grand critique musical autrichien Eduard Hanslick (†1904), qui a été injustement traité de formaliste, est l’esthéticien qui a réussi à donner une formulation légitime de l’esprit de la musique classique. C’est d’elle que purent partir plus tard, bien que sans le dire, August Halm et Heinrich Schenker. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
Political corruption is one of the globe's most pressing yet seemingly permanent problems. It is a root cause of low growth and inequality, and plagues numerous nations throughout the world to varying degrees. This book examines corruption levels in sixty-four developing democracies over a twenty-year period. |
