This is the first book to study the middlebrow novel in France. Middlebrow is a derogatory word that connotes blandness, mediocrity and a failed aspiration to 'high' culture. However, when appropriated as a positive term to denote that wide swathe of literature between the challenging experimentalism of the high and the formulaic tendency of the popular, it enables a rethinking of the literary canon from the point of view of what most readers actually read, a criterion curiously absent from dominant definitions of literary value. Since women have long formed a majority of the reading public, this perspective immediately feminises what has always been a very male canon. Opening with a theorisation of the concept of middlebrow that mounts a defence of some literary qualities disdained by modernism, the book then focuses on a series of case studies of periods (the Belle E?poque, inter-war, early twenty-first century), authors (including Colette, Ire?ne Nemirovsky, Franc?oise Sagan, Anna Gavalda) and the middlebrow nature of literary prizes. It concludes with a double reading of a single text, from the perspective of an academic critic, and from that of a middlebrow reader. 410 0$aContemporary French and Francophone Cultures 606 $aFrench fiction$y20th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aFrench fiction$y21st century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aWomen$xBooks and reading$zFrance$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aWomen$xBooks and reading$zFrance$xHistory$y21st century 606 $aWomen and literature$zFrance$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aWomen and literature$zFrance$xHistory$y21st century 610 $aLanguages 610 $aLiterary studies 610 $afiction 610 $anovelists & prose writers 610 $aFrance 610 $aEnglish 610 $aFrench 615 0$aFrench fiction$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aFrench fiction$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aWomen$xBooks and reading$xHistory 615 0$aWomen$xBooks and reading$xHistory 615 0$aWomen and literature$xHistory 615 0$aWomen and literature$xHistory 676 $a843.91409 700 $aHolmes$b Diana$f1949-$0791951 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910306633403321 996 $aMiddlebrow matters$92264397 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04542nam 2200601 a 450 001 9910739463203321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a3-642-37861-7 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-642-37861-4 035 $a(CKB)2670000000388563 035 $a(EBL)1317362 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000925119 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11974698 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000925119 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10880028 035 $a(PQKB)11222780 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-642-37861-4 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC1317362 035 $a(PPN)17049165X 035 $a(EXLCZ)992670000000388563 100 $a20130701d2013 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 00$aLignocellulose conversion $eenzymatic and microbial tools for bioethanol production /$fVincenza Faraco, editor 205 $a1st ed. 2013. 210 $aHeidelberg, Germany $cSpringer$dc2013 215 $a1 online resource (206 p.) 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 $a3-642-44260-9 311 $a3-642-37860-9 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references at the end of each chapters and index. 327 $aIntroduction: Potential of Cellulosic Ethanol -- Sources for Lignocellulosic Raw Materials for the Production of Ethanol -- The Pretreatment Step in Lignocellulosic Biomass Conversion: Current Systems and New Biological Systems -- The Saccharification Step: Trichoderma Reesei Cellulase Hyper Producer Strains.- The Saccharification Step: the Main Enzymatic Components -- Extremophilic (Hemi)cellulolytic Microorganisms and Enzymes -- The Alcohol Fermentation Step: the Most Common Ethanologenic Microorganisms Among Yeasts, Bacteria and Filamentous Fungi -- Other Ethanologenic Microorganisms -- Consolidated Bioprocessing for Improving Cellulosic Ethanol Production. 330 $aLignocellulose conversion stands out as a key process for the sustainable production of renewable fuels and chemicals. The use of lignocellulosic materials for second generation ethanol production makes it possible to minimize the conflict between land use for food (and feed) and energy production. The lignocellulosic raw materials are less expensive and they present a more even geographical distribution than does conventional agricultural feedstock. Residual biomass such as agro-industrial wastes, agricultural and forest crop residues and the organic and paper fractions of municipal solid waste make up a large percentage of lignocelluloses. Moreover, second generation ethanol production and use show lower greenhouse gas emissions than the first generation fuels, reducing environmental impacts, particularly in terms of climate change. Lignocellulose conversion into ethanol commonly involves a pretreatment to remove the barrier of lignin and expose plant cell wall polysaccharides, enzymatic saccharification of sugars with a cocktail of cellulolytic and hemicellulolytic enzymes, and fermentation of the sugars with ethanologenic microorganisms. The commercialization of the process to produce cellulosic ethanol is still limited due to the high costs of current technologies, above all the (hemi)cellulolytic enzymes required to hydrolyze the polysaccharides. The enzymatic hydrolysis may take place in a separate step followed by fermentation called separate hydrolysis and fermentation, or it may take place together with the fermentation in a simultaneous saccharification and fermentation of hexoses process or simultaneous saccharification and co-fermentation of both hexoses and pentoses. The ultimate objective is one-step consolidated bioprocessing of lignocellulose into bioethanol, in which all the steps take place in a single reactor where a single micro-organism or microbial consortium converts pre-treated biomass into ethanol. This book presents the main tools, the current technological developments and future prospects in cellulosic ethanol production and research. 606 $aLife sciences 606 $aCellulosic ethanol 606 $aLignocellulose$xBiotechnology 606 $aBiotechnology 615 0$aLife sciences. 615 0$aCellulosic ethanol. 615 0$aLignocellulose$xBiotechnology. 615 0$aBiotechnology. 676 $a570 701 $aFaraco$b Vincenza$01755761 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910739463203321 996 $aLignocellulose conversion$94192669 997 $aUNINA
