Marketing polityczny na przykładzie witryn internetowych kół poselskich i klubów parlamentarnych w Sejmie RP VI kadencji

Contemporary political marketing is increasingly using the Internet for its actions. The subject of this article is to analyze this phenomenon in the context of Polish Parliamentary Clubs’ websites. Elements such as page layout, subpages, available information or references to social networking sites were considered. The fundamental question in this article was whether and how Parliamentary Clubs exploit new opportunities?

A Verbal Exhibition: Lev Loseff's ‘Captions to Pictures Seen in Childhood’

Slavonic and East European Review, 96, 4, 2018 A Verbal Exhibition: Lev Loseff’s ‘Captions to Pictures Seen in Childhood’ G. S. SMITH The five-part composition, ‘Podpisi k vidennym v detstve kartinkam’ (‘Captions to Pictures Seen in Childhood’, hereafter, CPC) was included in Lev Loseff’s first book of poetry, and subsequently reprinted in collected editions.1 In these publications it is placed in a position that may suggest that the poet attached particular importance to it, as the concluding item in the second of the four sections into which the collection is subdivided. However, it has been little mentioned in the now substantial body of discussion concerning Loseff’s legacy.2 One reason for this situation is likely to have been the problem of identifying the pictures concerned. Critics and scholars have perhaps felt that without such identification, it is not possible to achieve sufficient precision and reliability in analysis. This possibility has been taken seriously and borne in mind in what follows here. But the resulting caution and sense of unavoidable provisionality G. S. Smith is Professor Emeritus of Russian in the University of Oxford, and Emeritus Fellow of New College. 1 Lev Losev, Chudesnyi desant. Stikhotovoreniia, Tenafly, NY, 1985, pp. 58–60; CPC was collected first in Lev Losev, Sobrannoe, Ekaterinburg, 2000, pp. 56–58; then in Viktor Kulle and Vladimir Ufliand (ed.), ‘Filologicheskaia shkola’. Teksty. Vospominaniia. Bibliografiia, Moscow, 2005, pp. 530–32, and most recently in Lev Losev, Stikhi, St Petersburg, 2012, pp. 74–76. References to Loseff’s poetry will be made hereafter to the latter edition, abbreviated as Stikhi, with page reference. A translation of the poem may be found in Selected Early Poems of Lev Loseff, translated with annotations and scholarly introduction by Henry W. Pickford, Brooklyn, NY, 2014, pp. 62–67 [ accessed 13 May 2018]. 2 See, most recently, Mikhail Gronas and Barry Scherr (eds), Лифшиц/Лосев/Loseff. Sbornik pamiati L´va Vladimirovicha Loseva, Moscow, 2017, and the ongoing website ‘Lev Losev ne poet, ne kifared’ [accessed 13 May 2018]. A particularly insightful and well-balanced general survey of Loseff’s life and work is Igor´ Efimov, ‘Bol´she chem edinitsa: chetyre litsa L´va Loseva’, reprinted in Лифшиц/Лосев/ Loseff, pp. 83–97. G. S. SMITH 732 have been overcome by the conviction that to prioritise identifying the original referents may actually inhibit analysis. In other words, the visual stimuli may legitimately function not so much as the principal matter concerned in the poem, without a grasp of which it cannot be adequately comprehended, but rather as a point of departure for the poet and the reader. This position accords with a prominent tendency found across a broad spectrum of recent theorizing, and a large body of critical practice, relating to the creative procedure conventionally referred to as ekphrasis, which has been the subject of continuous discussion since antiquity.3 More broadly, this issue opens out into the domain of referentiality or allusiveness, part of the domain of intertextuality.4 Since the beginning of his activity as a poet in the late 1970s, allusiveness has been recognized as a leading characteristic of Loseff’s work. But discussion of it has as a rule been limited to literary sources rather than those involving the graphic or other arts.5 3 Among publications concerned with literatures other than Russian, a useful general introduction to this subject remains Murray Krieger, Ekphrasis: The Illusion of the Natural Sign, Baltimore, MD, 1992. A valuable tour d’horizon is John Hollander’s introduction to his anthology The Gazer’s Spirit: Poems Speaking to Silent Works of Art, Chicago, IL, 1995. For poetry concerned specifically with painting, see Robert D. Denham, Poets on Paintings: A Bibliography, Jefferson, NC, 2010. 4 The clearest concise introduction to this body of theory and practice I have encountered is Margarete Landwehr, ‘Introduction: Literature and the Visual Arts; Questions of Influence and Intertextuality’, College Literature, 29, Summer 2002, 3, Literature and the Visual Arts, pp. 1–16. Specifically on Russian literature, I have found useful guidance in the following publication: D. V. Tokarev (ed.), ‘Nevyrazimo vyrazimoe’: Ekfrasis i problemy representatsii vizual´nogo v khudozhestvennom tekste: Sbornik statei, Moscow, 2013. It was preceded by Leonid Geller (ed...

Time-shift replacement algorithm for main memory performance optimization

Page replacement algorithms of main memory in modern operating systems are crucial in system performance. When memory is full, a page replacement algorithm exploits temporal locality and frequency of page references to evict the page that is least likely to be accessed in the near future. Subsequently, loading the majority of data directly from memory improves performance by reducing I/O waits of accessing slow storage. Research of replacement algorithms that maximizes hit ratio while incurring as less overhead as possible has been constantly studied. In this paper, we propose a time-shift least recently used (TSLRU) algorithm that converts frequency information of page references into temporal locality. Frequent accesses of a page are thus recognized and accumulated in terms of time. Moreover, pages being loaded into memory for the first time are not necessarily the most recently used pages. As a result, one-pass pages are evicted sooner in our algorithm than in traditional LRU algorithm. Our performance evaluations show that the TSLRU outperforms conventional page replacement algorithms on both artificial and real application traces. For example, hit ratio of TSLRU advances ARC by \(4.17\%\) and LRU by \(5.91\%\) on normal distributed workloads. Moreover, TSLRU outperforms ARC by over \(2\%\) on half of the application traces tested.

Playwork practice as a person-centred approach

There is a key piece of literature that underpins all that we do when working with children and young people, and it is not one traditionally associated with playwork practice. It is the work and writings of Carl Rogers, the original thinker, counsellor and creator of the person-centred approach (Rogers, 1980). As experienced playworkers and leaders, we do not focus only on play types, play values, play theories and literature. We also place the person-centred approach at the centre of our practice and ethos. This approach, developed between 1940 and 1960 by Carl Rogers, revolutionised ways of working with people (Merry, 2002), and we believe that it can transform childcare and playwork practice. Rogers’ work began in the field of counselling and within his lifetime, he encouraged many people throughout the world to ‘be themselves with confidence’ (quoted in Thorne, 1992 [[page reference]]). His approach moved away from the idea that the therapist was the expert towards a theory that trusted the innate ability (known as the ‘self-actualising tendency’) of human beings to find fulfilment of their personal potential. The principal ideas from this theory that we believe guide our practice when working with children and young people are those of ‘self-actualisation’ and the use of the ‘core conditions’.

Document type assignment accuracy in the journal citation index data of Web of Science

This article reports the results of a study of the correctness of document type assignments in the commercial citation index database Web of Science (SCIE, SSCI, AHCI collections). The document type assignments for publication records are compared to those given on the official journal websites or in the publication full-texts for a random sample of 791 Web of Science records across the four document type categories articles, letters, reviews and others, according to the definitions of WoS. The proportion of incorrect assignments across document types and its influence on document specific normalized citations scores are analysed. It is found that document type data is correct in 94% of records. Further analyses show that within records of one document type as assigned in the data source, the records assigned to the type correctly and incorrectly have different average page counts and reference counts.

“Glossary Islands” as Sites of the “Abroad” in Post-Colonial Literature: Towards a New Methodology for Language and Knowledge Relations in Keri Hulme’s &lt;em&gt;The Bone People&lt;/em&gt; and Melissa Lucashenko’s &lt;em&gt;Mullumbimby&lt;/em&gt;

The publication of Melissa Lucashenko’s Mullumbimby in 2013 drew attention once more to the issue of how post-colonial scholars might best engage with English-language literary texts also containing a glossary of Indigenous words. This issue emerged first with the publication of Keri Hulme’s The Bone People in 1984. This article argues that, to date, scholars like Simon During and Eve Vincent have perpetuated a binary either/or approach to the interpretation of these glossaries. The result of this approach has been that either the pre-colonial Indigenous language or the colonial/post-colonizing English language has been privileged as the locus of linguistic power in the text. One problem with this approach is that it does not adequately represent the complex historical, cultural and political circumstances of post-colonial and multi-cultural nations like Australia (setting of Mullumbimby) and New Zealand (setting of The Bone People) as these link to matters of language. Another problem is that this binary approach restrains a close reading of the differences between different types of such glossaries, and of the nuanced relationship of a glossary to the text it accompanies. In place of this approach, this article proposes a new methodology that works with Elizabeth M. DeLoughrey’s notion of “tidalectics” as a way of reading island literatures. The neologism “glossary islands” allows another way into considering the function of glossaries in islandic literary texts like Lucashenko’s and Hulme’s. The post-colonial connection between islands and glossaries lies in the fact that they are each an intensified site of knowledge.

Crossroads of the Imagination: A Possible Musical Origin for the Character of Jupiter in Poe’s “The Gold-Bug”

Just after the turn of the century, I was in my university's library, browsing through old collections of traditional American folk music. That particular semester, I was teaching several sections of English composition and American literature before 1900. In the latter, I assigned cheap and accessible Dover editions of our authors, giving my students the original texts long in the public domain and free from expert commentary, so they could form their own opinions about the readings (or so I hoped). One of our authors was Edgar Allan Poe, and one of our assigned readings was Gold-B ug (1843). I should also mention that a few years earlier, I had finished my doctoral dissertation on Ralph Ellison's Invisible Man, where in one of my chapters (and at various points throughout the manuscript), I had examined that novel from the perspective of slave narratives, such as Olaudah Equiano's Interesting Narrative, Frederick Douglass's Narrative, Booker T. Washington's Up from Slavery, as well as W. E. B. Du Bois's narrative The Souls of Black Folk, and their respective historical contexts. I had also spent a great deal of time with Ellison's other writings, such as his essay Twentieth-C entury Fiction and the Black Mask of Humanity.The musical collection I was holding was an edition of Ira W. Ford's Traditional Music of America. (I was, at the time, searching for old fiddle tunes and mountain for a long work then in progress.) While I tried to finger-tap my way through tunes like Ginger Blue, Molly Hare, and Possum up a Gum Stump, I stumbled across a tune that stopped my fingers cold and made my eyes bulge in Poe-like fascination and horror. The tune's title was Jubiter, and the first instance of it in Ford are the opening bars (1940a:99), followed by a page reference to the subsequent song in full, with lyrics (1940a:253):The story Old JubiterTold you and me,The night we sat underThe juniper tree.At the end of the rainbowIs what we were told,We'll each find a treasureOf bright shiny gold.ChorusOf bright shiny gold,Of bright shiny gold,Oh, where is the treasureOf bright shiny gold?1At that moment, I stood at a personal crossroads of the imagination, where my love of traditional American folk music and my knowledge of nineteenth-century American literature and, to an extent, slave narratives merged. And the nexus point was Poe's character of Jupiter.I n Gold-B ug, an unnamed narrator relates how he met and befriended one William Legrand and his former slave, Jupiter, and how the three of them uncovered Captain Kidd's buried treasure after Legrand deciphers a coded message that tells where the treasure is buried. For many readers and scholars, the heart of the tale lies in the existence of, and the solution to, the code that leads to the treasure of buried gold (Whalen 1994). For myself, I find the presence and depiction of Jupiter to be the tale's most compelling facet.Jupiter has been given short shriftby Poe scholars, who see him as only as a stereotypical docile servant (Hutchisson 2005:99), a source of comic relief (Meyers 2000:136), or proof that Poe could not reproduce black dialect (Hibbard 1926:495). Jupiter is rather a human being. In Gold-B ug, we learn that Jupiter had been manumitted, freed, by Legrand prior to the reversal of Legrand's family fortunes. Although a free man, Jupiter elects to stay with his former master, the two spending their days hunting and fishing on Sullivan's Island, isolated offthe South Carolina coast. Being free, Jupiter can move about town, as when Legrand sends him to buy supplies and to deliver a message to the narrator, and Jupiter is free to speak his mind to both men, more or less like an equal. I say this for, despite a few passages where Legrand is brusque with Jupiter, there are other passages where Jupiter is brusque with Legrand. …

Love Thy Neighbor as Thyself? Let's Not Get Carried Away

Love Thy Neighbor as Thyself? Let's Not Get Carried Away Peter Heinegg Strangers Drowning: Grappling with Impossible Idealism, Drastic Choices, and the Overpowering Urge to Help. By Larissa MacFarquhar, New York, NY: Penguin Press,2015. 320 pp. $27.95 Larissa MacFarquhar is a longtime staff writer at The New Yorker, where she has profiled major public figures like John Ashbery, Barack Obama, and Noam Chomsky. In Strangers Drowning, she takes on a group of mostly obscure “extreme altruists,” and paints arresting sketches of them. There is Dorothy Granada, a nurse and peace‐activist who left the United States in her mid‐fifties and spent twenty years in a remote Nicaraguan village, constantly dodging death from the Contras and heroically serving poor peasants night and day, until her clinic was privatized and she was kicked out. Murlidgar Amte, later known as Baba, was a rich, romantically impulsive Brahmin “princeling” who gave up everything to found a leprosarium in the jungle of central India. With help from his wife, sons, and grandchildren (many of whom became M.Ds), he ultimately built a vast St. Jude's Hospital‐like community named Anandwan, which in turn spawned a solid medical facility among the Madias, a tribal people living in an even more untamed wilderness—and all of this at the price of unspeakable sacrifice, suffering, and danger. Ittetsu Nemoto is a Japanese Buddhist priest who turned a suicide hotline blog into a wildly popular social network, whose night‐and‐day demands all but killed him, but which has saved many lives. Sue Hoag and Hector Badeau are devout Christians who started adopting unwanted children, and eventually turned their house into a home for dozens of desperate—and often incorrigible—youngsters. Kimberly Brown‐Whaler is a United Methodist pastor who worked as a missionary under nightmarish conditions in Mozambique and Senegal, before being transferred to east Baltimore, where she all but drowned in the flood of crime, drugs, and human misery of her congregation, but where she still soldiers on. Apart from these faith‐based heroes, MacFarquhar also introduces us to the founders of Alcoholics Anonymous, to people who donate their kidneys to strangers (a more common procedure than it used to be) and to some fierce young idealists, couples just setting out on the road to utopian altruism. They have determined to own and spend no more than the absolute minimum and give everything else to various charities, but intensity of the (in most cases) male, partner's commitment to stripping away all superfluities borders on obsession, if not madness. In the end, MacFarquhar gives a tepid benediction to these strenuous spiritual athletes, who seem to have made the world a better place, despite the bruising pressure to which they sometimes subject their partners, coworkers, and clients. The accounts MacFarquhar gives of today's apprentice or full‐time saints (why not call them that?) are powerful, colorful, and intriguing, but when it comes to analyzing and understanding their vision, she fails almost completely. For starters, she insists on calling them “do‐gooders,” as if she could not hear the contempt the term has always conveyed (like the other smug conservative put‐down, “bleeding heart”). She herself plainly finds her subjects both absorbing and off‐putting. “When people heard that I was writing about do‐gooders, many of them said, But aren't they mentally ill?” Like her friends, MacFarquhar suspects that anyone with “an extreme sense of duty” is likely a masochist. She quotes approvingly the absurd sentimental dictum of E.M. Forster, “I hate the idea of causes. If I had to choose between betraying my country and betraying my friend, I hope I should have the guts to betray my country.” Take that, utilitarians! MacFarquhar just does not have a coherent historical, philosophical, or theological framework to deal with the “problem” of altruism. (She never even raises the commonsensical question of whether radical altruists make people feel uncomfortable simply because they remind us what slackers we are.) In a book with no footnotes, page references, or index, she tosses in sloppy, impressionistic summaries of thinkers like Nietzsche, Freud, and, above all, Peter Singer, whose position she consistently distorts. She sees Nietzsche...

Ranking Web Search Results Exploiting Wikipedia

It is widely known that search engines are the dominating tools for finding information on the web. In most of the cases, these engines return web page references on a global ranking taking in mind either the importance of the web site or the relevance of the web pages to the identified topic. In this paper, we focus on the problem of determining distinct thematic groups on web search engine results that other existing engines provide. We additionally address the problem of dynamically adapting their ranking according to user selections, incorporating user judgments as implicitly registered in their selection of relevant documents. Our system exploits a state of the art semantic web data mining technique that identifies semantic entities of Wikipedia for grouping the result set in different topic groups, according to the various meanings of the provided query. Moreover, we propose a novel probabilistic Network scheme that employs the aforementioned topic identification method, in order to modify ranking of results as the users select documents. We evaluated in practice our implemented prototype with extensive experiments with the ClueWeb09 dataset using the TREC’s 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012 Web Tracks’ where we observed improved retrieval performance compared to current state of the art re-ranking methods.

BA 10508-40. i328.]Le comte Ory, Rossini's second most successful French opera, had an impressive performance record in the nineteenth century, with over 430 performances in Paris alone. Premiered on 20 August 1828 at the Academie royale de musique (the Paris Opera), Le comte Ory was Rossini's third opera in French and the last of a small series of revised and updated works produced for the Opera that were based at least in part on an earlier Italian opera. In the last few years of the Bourbon Restoration, the Opera took advantage of its joint administration with the Theâtre Italien, a lyric theater devoted exclusively to Italian opera, to commission several works from Rossini: he reworked Maometto II as Le siege de Corinthe (1826), and Mose in Egitto as Moise et Pharaon (1827). Although the joint administration was dissolved in 1827, Rossini remained under contract to produce two more French works for the Opera. The second of these would be Guillaume Tell, Rossini's only entirely original (and his most successful) French opera, eventually premiered in 1829. For Le comte Ory, however, Rossini turned once again to an earlier Italian composition: Il viaggio a Reims, a one-act dramma giocoso he had composed for the coronation of Charles X in 1825, and which, due to its occasional nature, had a very limited performance run at the Theâtre Italien. As early as 1826, Rossini had considered recycling the material from Il viaggio for an Italian semiseria opera on a libretto entitled La figlia dell'aria by Luigi Balocchi, but the project was abandoned. Sometime in the early months of 1828, Rossini returned to the project, only this time in collaboration with Eugene Scribe, who had already branched out from vaudeville with several librettos for the Opera Comique, and had just made his debut on the Opera's stage with La muette de Portici in February 1828. Scribe also drew on an older work for the libretto: he revised and expanded a one-act comedie-vaudeville cowritten with Charles-Gaspard DelestrePoirson, Le comte Ory: Anecdote du XIe siecle, first presented at the Theâtre du Vaudeville in 1816.The initial phase of the comte Ory project, particularly regarding the relationship between Scribe and Rossini, remains frustratingly opaque due to an absence of correspondence; but two preparatory sketches of the libretto in Scribe's hand provide a sense of the complex task involved in merging the two works, particularly with regard to the distribution of the musical numbers from Il viaggio in the expanded plot (see pp. lxi-lxiii [page references are to Patricia B. Brauner's English translation of Damien Colas's preface]). …

Comments on Special Issue on Islamic Philosophy, The Maghreb Review, Vol. 40, No.3, 2015

The Maghreb Review, Vol. 41, 2, 2016 © The Maghreb Review 2016 This publication is printed on longlife paper COMMENTS ON SPECIAL ISSUE ON ISLAMIC PHILOSOPHY, THE MAGHREB REVIEW, VOL. 40, NO.3, 2015 CHRISTOPHER COLMO* REMARKS ON ALFARABI A single issue of the Maghreb Review offers the reader a multifaceted encounter with Islamic philosophy, and the single name that connects all of the essays in this volume is arguably that of Abu Nasr Alfarabi (870-950; see the biography offered in the comprehensive article by Joseph Alagha, 321-323).1 Let me begin with a tentative summary of my own encounters with Alfarabi over the past twenty-five years. At the end of The Attainment of Happiness, the first part of his now wellknown trilogy, The Philosophy of Plato and Aristotle, Alfarabi presents Plato and Aristotle as having but a single intention. That intention is to provide in their writings a route to the discovery of philosophy and to provide a route to its recovery if philosophy becomes lost. One way to interpret this claim is to suggest that it points us to Alfarabi’s intention only by pointing us away from the intention he ascribes to Plato and Aristotle. If philosophy has been lost or – amounting to the same thing – if it needs to be discovered for the first time by a particular individual, then the most useful books to consult are those by Plato and Aristotle. As Alfarabi tells us in the second part of his trilogy, The Philosophy of Plato, Plato investigates. In The Philosophy of Plato, Alfarabi catalogues these investigations but he does not provide a single example of a Socratic investigation in which Socrates attempts to move from opinion to knowledge. In many, perhaps all, of Plato’s dialogues, these investigations are aporetic. They lead to unanswered questions and additional questioning. According to Alfarabi’s explicit statement at the end of The Attainment of Happiness, it is from investigations such as these that the nature of philosophy can be discovered. Alfarabi offers writings of an entirely differently character. There is nothing like the First Book of Plato’s Republic in either Alfarabi’s Political Regime or in his Principles of the Opinions of the People of the Virtuous City. These political works instruct the reader in the first principles and draw conclusions. They do not dialectically investigate those principles in the manner of a zetetic Socrates. In The Philosophy of Plato, Alfarabi presents his account of even the most sceptical investigations, for example the Meno or the Theatetus, as ending in firm conclusions concerning the possibilities for human knowledge. Perhaps one way to account for this striking contrast is to explain that while Plato and Socrates are concerned with the ascent from * Dominican University, Illinois 1 All page references in the text are to The Maghreb Review, vol. 40, no. 3 (2015), Special Issue on Islamic Philosophy. COMMENTS ON SPECIAL ISSUE ON ISLAMIC PHILOSOPHY 317 opinion to knowledge, Alfarabi characteristically speaks of the relationship between opinion and action. As Shawn Welnak makes clear in his very careful article, at least the literal surface of Alfarabi’s text presents demonstrative philosophy as performing a legislative function. Philosophy rules. Such philosophy can hardly be investigative and aporetic in the Platonic sense. It does not end with or primarily concern the ascent from opinion to knowledge. Instead, it is directed primarily at shaping opinions and the actions that result from those opinions. Whereas Plato and Artistotle aim to lead us out of the cave, Alfarabi aims to furnish the cave in a way that is compatible with all that is good in philosophy and with the goodness of those who must dwell with the philosophers in the cave. In Alfarabi’s hands, the furnishings of the cave have the appearance of theoretical constructions, by which I mean concepts that presuppose the discovery of philosophy and science. In problematising this view of Alfarabi, one might begin by questioning whether Alfarabi knew whether Plato’s dialogues were, in fact, dialogues. He refers to them as books, not dialogues. Perhaps Alfarabi knew the dialogues only in the form of summaries, and perhaps their aporetic nature was not visible from these summaries...

BROSSARD'S DRAMATIC WORKS Sebastien de Brossard. L'oeuvre dramatique: Typhon & les Geants [SdB.67] ; Intermedes [SdB.68] ; Concert sur l'Alceste de Lully [SdB.264]. Edition de Jean Duron. (Patrimoine musical francais. Monumentales, III, 7.) Versailles: Centre de musique baroque de Versailles, 2015. [Table of contents, p. iii-iv; introd. Fre., Eng., p. v-lxiii; texts and translations, p. lxvi-lxxxvi; facsims., p. lxxxviii-ci; score, p. 1-175; crit. commentary Fre., p. 177-81. Paperback. ISMN 979-0-707034-65-1; pub. no. CMBV 065. euro120.]Sebastien de Brossard (1655-1730), a crucial figure of the late French baroque period belonging to the generation between Lully and Rameau, has received much musicological attention within the last thirty years. Known primarily through his Dictionnaire de musique (1703), a pioneering work of its kind France, Brossard gained a reputation throughout his life as a music theorist and music collector. There is little evidence that his own music was much performed during his lifetime, a few exceptions notwithstanding. This situation changed the last two decades of the twentieth century, when the performance of Brossard's music experienced a renaissance France, thanks to the renewed interest his compositions resulting from the groundbreaking scholarly work by Jean Duron, Yolande de Brossard, and Catherine Cessac. While these scholars have all greatly contributed toward Brossard's thrust into the scholarly limelight through catalogs, biographies, editions, and articles, much of the merit of editing Brossard's oeuvre goes to Jean Duron. Duron's expertise as editor of both Brossard's music and of his theoretical writings has yielded a wealth of publications, which include a thematic catalog (Jean Duron, L'oeuvre de Sebastien de Brossard (1655-1730): Catalogue thematique, Domaine musicologique II, Publications du Centre de musique baroque de Versailles, CMBV-a 1 [Versailles: Editions du Centre de musique baroque de Versailles; Paris: Klincksieck, 1995]) and four of the eight volumes that comprise the collected edition of Brossard's works, published by the Centre de musique baroque de Versailles over the last twenty years. The volume under review-edited by Duron-features Brossard's dramatic works, and completes the series devoted to the composer.One of the chief issues facing Duron with this volume was the paucity of Brossard's dramatic works. The most important source of Brossard's own music-his personal collection he bequeathed to the Royal Library, carefully detailed his own Catalogue des livres de musique theorique et pratique (see La collection Sebastien de Brossard, 1655-1730: Catalogue (Departement de la musique, Res. Vm.8 20), ed. Yolande de Brossard [Paris: Bibliotheque nationale de France, 1994], hereinafter, Catalogue; the original document is available at http://gallica.bnf.fr /ark:/12148/btv1b550059643)-does not contain all of his works, and this makes the task of gauging the composer's operatic output particularly difficult. Duron surmises, in the area of dramatic music, it is probable that the three works edited here represent only a part of his production (p. xxxix [page references are to Buford Norman's English translation of Duron's introduction]). The three works question include the dramatic divertissement Typhon et les Geants (Typhoeus and the Giants, 1691), the Concert sur l'Alceste de Lully (Concert based on Lully's Alceste, 1691-95), and a collection of thirteen pieces, both instrumental and vocal-eight of which are by Brossard-entitled Intermedes (ca. 1699). In his introduction (p. xxxix-xlii), Duron also details the historical background to the opera Pyrame et Thisbe, composed by Brossard for the 1685 festivities at Reuil, organized by the 2d Duke of Richelieu for Louis XIV, which is unfortunately lost. The opera was probably never performed because the Reuil festivities were cancelled on account of the king's more pressing project-the revocation of the Edict of Nantes. …

More Vesalian Second Thoughts. The Annotations to the Institutiones anatomicae secundum Galeni sententiam, 1538

In 1538 Andreas Vesalius published his unauthorised revision of Guinther von Andernach's little anatomical textbook, the Institutiones anatomicae. Immediately on publication he set to work on a further revision, making around 250 changes. This paper presents these changes for the first time, discussing them in the context of Vesalius as a reviser of his own work and as anatomist moving away from reliance on Galen towards the independence of the 1543 Fabrica. As well as simple proof corrections, the notes show corrections to Vesalius' earlier anatomical observations as well as page references to passages in Galen discussed at greater length in the Fabrica.
