These activities are stimulated by the strengthened public awareness of prevailing ecological issues connected to growing piles of plastic waste and increasing greenhouse gas emissions; this goes hand-in-hand with the ongoing depletion of fossil feedstocks, which are traditionally used to produce full carbon backbone polymers. Polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) biopolyesters, a family of plastic-like materials with versatile material properties, are increasing considered to be a future-oriented solution for diminishing these concerns. PHA production is based on renewable resources and occurs in a bio-mediated fashion through the action of living organisms. If accomplished in an optimized way, PHA production and the entire PHA lifecycle are embedded into nature´s closed cycles of carbon. Sustainable and efficient PHA production requires understanding and improvement of all the individual process steps. Holistic improvement of PHA production, applicable on an industrially relevant scale, calls for, inter alia, consolidated knowledge about the enzymatic and genetic particularities of PHA-accumulating organisms, an in-depth understanding of the kinetics of the bioprocess, the selection of appropriate inexpensive fermentation feedstocks, tailoring of PHA composition at the level of its monomeric constituents, optimized biotechnological engineering, and novel strategies for PHA recovery from biomass characterized by low energy and chemical requirements. This Special Issue represents a comprehensive compilation of articles in which these individual aspects have been addressed by globally recognized experts.Advances in PolyhydroxyalkanoateCupriavidus necatoralginatetissue engineeringPATsimulationterpolyesterhigh cell density cultivationprocess simulationselective laser sinteringgaseous substratesmicroaerophilicin-line monitoringPseudomonas sp.additive manufacturingfed-batchterpolymeron-linebubble column bioreactorbiopolymerfused deposition modelingbiomaterialspolyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA)Pseudomonas putidafed-batch fermentationblendsupstream processingwound healingactivated charcoaldownstream processingArchaeapolyhydroxyalkanoates processingfilmbioreactormedium-chain-length polyhydroxyalkanoate (mcl-PHA)poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-4-hydroxybutyrate)Ralstonia eutrophahydrolysate detoxificationextremophilesPoly(3-hydroxybutyrate)process analytical technologiesPHA compositionCOMSOLnon-Newtonian fluidtequila bagassebiopolyesterbiosurfactantsHaloferaxPHAphenolic compoundspolyhydroxybutyratePHBin-linePseudomonashaloarchaeaplant oilPHA processingbioeconomydelivery systemP(3HB-co-3HV-co-4HB)productivityelectrospinningcyanobacteriawaste streamspolyhydroxyalkanoatesoxygen transferpolyhydroxyalkanoatebiomedical applicationphoton density wave spectroscopycarbon dioxidesalinityPDWrheologyhalophilesfeedstockshigh-cell-density fed-batchbiomedicineprocess engineeringbioprocess designviscositycomputer-aided wet-spinningmicroorganismCupriavidus malaysiensispoly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHVB)Koller Martinauth1327943BOOK9910404081203321Advances in Polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) Production, Volume 23038319UNINA07973nam 2202533z- 450 991055710810332120231214132940.0(CKB)5400000000040966(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/69423(EXLCZ)99540000000004096620202105d2020 |y 0engurmn|---annantxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierAnimal NarratologyBasel, SwitzerlandMDPI - Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute20201 electronic resource (454 p.)3-03928-348-0 3-03928-349-9 Animal Narratology interrogates what it means to narrate, to speak—speak for, on behalf of—and to voice, or represent life beyond the human, which is in itself as different as insects, bears, and dogs are from each other, and yet more, as individual as a single mouse, horse, or puma. The varied contributions to this interdisciplinary Special Issue highlight assumptions about the human perception of, attitude toward, and responsibility for the animals that are read and written about, thus demonstrating that just as “the animal” does not exist, neither does “the human”. In their zoopoetic focus, the analyses are aware that animal narratology ultimately always contains an approximation of an animal perspective in human terms and terminology, yet they make clear that what matters is how the animal is approximated and that there is an effort to approach and encounter the non-human in the first place. Many of the analyses come to the conclusion that literary animals give readers the opportunity to expand their own points of view both on themselves and others by adopting another’s perspective to the degree that such an endeavor is possible. Ultimately, the contributions call for a recognition of the many spaces, moments, and modes in which human lives are entangled with those of animals—one of which is located within the creative bounds of storytelling.Research & information: generalbicsscBiology, life sciencesbicsscAnimals & societybicsscanimal narratorsanthropocentrismcultural ontologiesdiscourse analysisfiction-nonfiction distinctionframing and footinglife writingnarratologypolitenessself-narrativesanimal studieshuman-animal studiesspeaking animalsTolstoyBulgakovtrauma theoryRussian literatureallegoryhumanismliterary theoryfilm studiesGeorge OrwellAnimal FarmChicken RunUwe Timm'Morenga'African historycolonialismpostcolonial German literatureanimal narratologymulti-perspective narrationanimal agencyThe Plague DogsRichard Adamsunreliabilitytalking animal storiesnon-human focalizerPincher Martinnon-human narratorsintradiegetic narrationGerard GenetteanthropomorphismEric LinklaterThe Wind on the Moondirect speechcharacterizationposthumanisminter-species comprehensionHindi cinemaBollywoodanimal narratorworld literatureempathyCartesian dualismMaurice Merleau-Pontyanimal poetry'Inventing a Horse'Spermaceti'eco-humanitieseco-criticismeco-philosophyIndustrial Farm Animal Productionnarrativeplotconflictenvironmental crisiscatastropheplay theoryFranz Kafkamanuscriptsspeaking-fornarrative representationliterary representationanimal autobiographyfictional autobiographymeta-autobiographycontextualist narratologycultural and literary animal studiespoetics of knowledgezoologynatural historyequine autozoographyhorse-sciencenarrative voiceinoperativitysinging micezoopoeticsanthropological machinecommunitymusicCervantesNovelas ejemplaresEl coloquio de los perrosNovela del casamiento engañosoSiglo de OroEarly Modern AgecynicismDiogenes of SinopeMontaigneDerridaAnimal Studiesrhetoricanimal narrationfableAesopic fablesGreek fableantagonistic fablescomicsanimalscinemasound effectsscience fictionAchillesArchilochusfoxGryllusHesiodHomerLucianpigPlutarchPythagorasroosterXanthustalking dogsagencyanimaldystopiaMarie Darrieussecqhumannon-humanTruismesKafka studiesadaptation studiesintertextualityintermedialitymimesisemulationimitationrepetitionparodyautobiographygenreentanglementCixousdogsearthworldviewsindigenous wisdom traditionsrelationalityecologylanguagemore-than-human geographymultispecies ethnographyecopsychologyanthropologyenvironmental philosophydecolonizationintuitioninstinctmythnon-verbal communicationIKTEKanimalityfilmWhite Godfilmic representation of animalsmaterial ecocriticismMoby-DickWerner HerzogHans Sahllyric poetrymolespacetimespeciesmetamorphosistransformationexileResearch & information: generalBiology, life sciencesAnimals & societyJacobs Joelaedt1311316Jacobs JoelaothBOOK9910557108103321Animal Narratology3030236UNINA04922oam 2200889 450 991058598280332120230418190351.01-77385-123-31-77385-124-110.1515/9781773851235(OCoLC)1182537785(OCoLC)1238351953(CKB)4920000001372937(MiAaPQ)EBC6382678(NjHacI)994920000001372937(VaAlCD)20.500.12592/67fxkp(PPN)25262341X(DE-B1597)663988(DE-B1597)9781773851235(EXLCZ)99410000001155990820200805d2020 uy 0engurcnu---unuuutxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierOthers of my kind transatlantic transgender histories /by Alex Bakker, Rainer Herrn, Michael Thomas Taylor, and Annette F.

Timm, and Alex Bakker."An illuminating look at the transatlantic, transgender community that shaped the history and study of sexuality. From the turn of the twentieth century to the 1950s, a group of transgender people on both sides of the Atlantic created communities that profoundly shaped the history and study of sexuality. By exchanging letters and pictures among themselves they established private networks of affirmation and trust, and by submitting their stories and photographs to medical journals and popular magazines they sought to educate both doctors and the public. Others of My Kind draws on archives in Europe and North America to tell the story of this remarkable transatlantic transgender community. This book uncovers threads of connection between Germany, the United States, and the Netherlands to discover the people who influenced the work of authorities like Magnus Hirschfeld, Harry Benjamin, and Alfred Kinsey not only with their clinical presentations, but also with their personal relationships. With more than 170 colour and black and white illustrations, including many stunning, previously unpublished photographs, Others of My Kind celebrates the faces, lives, and personal networks of those who drove twentieth-century transgender history."--Provided by publisher.Transgender peopleNorth AmericaHistory20th centuryTransgender peopleEuropeHistory20th centuryTransgender peopleMedical careNorth AmericaHistory20th centuryTransgender peopleMedical careEuropeHistory20th centuryTransgender peoplefast(OCoLC)fst01765239EuropefastNorth AmericafastHistoryfastalfred kinsey transgender.cross atlantic, transatlantic.harry benjamin transgender.history gender.institute fur sexualwissenschaft.kinsey institute.lgbtq landmarks.magnus hirchfeld transgender.non-binary.queer identity.third gender.third sex.transgender history book.transgender history.transgender identity.transgender man.transgender movement.transgender research.transgender studies.transgender woman.Transgender peopleHistoryTransgender peopleHistoryTransgender peopleMedical careHistoryTransgender peopleMedical careHistoryTransgender people306.76/80904cci1icclaccBakker Alex1968-1252651Herrn Rainer1957-Taylor Michael Thomas1977-Timm Annette F.DE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK9910585982803321Others of my kind2904232UNINA04019oam 2200565 450 991081283750332120210831024851.09780271086590electronic bk.0-271-08657-20-271-08659-910.1515/9780271086590(CKB)4100000011260470(MiAaPQ)EBC6224817(DE-B1597)583714(DE-B1597)9780271086590(OCoLC)1253313915(EXLCZ)99410000001126047020200929d2020 uy 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierGothic architecture and sexuality in the circle of Horace Walpole /Matthew M.

From Strawberry Hill Gothic to the Gothic Revival --Notes --Bibliography --IndexGothic Architecture and Sexuality in the Circle of Horace Walpole shows that the Gothic style in architecture and the decorative arts and the tradition of medievalist research associated with Horace Walpole (1717–1797) and his circle cannot be understood independently of their own homoerotic culture. Centered around Walpole’s Gothic villa at Strawberry Hill in Twickenham, Walpole and his “Strawberry Committee” of male friends, designers, and dilettantes invigorated an extraordinary new mode of Gothic design and disseminated it in their own commissions at Old Windsor and Donnington Grove in Berkshire, Lee Priory in Kent, the Vyne in Hampshire, and other sites. Matthew M. Reeve argues that the new “third sex” of homoerotically inclined men and the new “modern styles” that they promoted—including the Gothic style and chinoiserie—were interrelated movements that shaped English modernity. The Gothic style offered the possibility of an alternate aesthetic and gendered order, a queer reversal of the dominant Palladian style of the period. Many of the houses built by Walpole and his circle were understood by commentators to be manifestations of a new queer aesthetic, and in describing them they offered the earliest critiques of what would be called a “queer architecture.” Exposing the role of sexual coteries in the shaping of eighteenth-century English architecture, this book offers a profound and eloquent revision to our understanding of the origins of the Gothic Revival and to medievalism itself. It will be welcomed by architectural historians as well as scholars of medievalism and specialists in queer studies.Gothic revival (Architecture)EnglandHomosexuality and architectureEnglandHistory18th centuryArt History.Gay and lesbian studies.History of Architecture.Medievalism.The Gothic Revival.third sex.Gothic revival (Architecture)Homosexuality and architectureHistory720.9421Reeve Matthew M.604495MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910812837503321Gothic architecture and sexuality in the circle of Horace Walpole4081966UNINA
