With the coming of James I to the English throne, as successor to Elizabeth, the union of England and Scotland was at last effected—outwardly at least—although the inner cementing required a generation or two longer. The story of Nigel and his fortunes is really a story of life in general, during the early years of the Scotch King's reign, as well as a careful portrait of the monarch himself. Nigel Olifaunt, a young Scotch nobleman who has succeeded to his father's title of Lord Glenvarloch, with very little of an estate to bolster up his name, comes to London to press a claim owed by King James himself. His servant, Monoplies, gets into a street brawl and is brought into the watchmaking shop of David Ramsay. The latter's friend, George Heriot, the King's jeweler, thus learns of Nigel's presence in the city, and having been a friend of the young lord's father, he visits Nigel and lends him money to make a proper appearance at court. Heriot's good offices do not end here, for he lays the case before the King, who promises a part settlement of the claim. Heriot also invites Nigel to a dinner at his home, where the Scot meets Margaret Ramsay, the pretty daughter of the watchmaker ...

Second String, by Anthony Hope,brings to mind a new tendency in British fiction which has quite been creeping in during the last years of the 19th century; namely, the tendency to concern itself more and more with the social life of middle class people rather than the upper circles. Second String deals with the extremely mixed society of a small English town, in which the hero, Andy Hayes, upon returning home after some years in the Canadian lumber district, finds it somewhat embarrassing to steer successfully between the distinctly "high-life" people on his father's side of the house and Jack Rock, the village butcher, with whom he is connected through his mother's second marriage. There is nothing of great importance in the main thread of the story; it is a tranquil chronicle of how Vivian Welgood, a frail, timid sort of girl, while engaging herself to another man, discovers that there is something in the physical presence of strong, big Andy Hayes that gives her a certain borrowed courage and self-reliance. And of courseit is no surprise to the reader when the other man finally elopes with Vivian's hired companion that she promptly and indeed gladly turns to Andy as second string. The value of the book lies in the deft portrayal of present-day manners, and as such, slight and modest as it is, it rings true.

"The Song of the Cardinal" is a fascinating story of the life of a redbird, or Kentucky cardinal, as it is popularly called, who is born in the valley of the Wabash. The author possesses the soul of an artist and a poet, which enables her to invest the story with the charm of a rich and vivid imagination; while her knowledge of the habits and peculiarities of the redbird and the love she feels for the cardinal family impart a living interest to her work that makes the reader enter into the joys and tribulations, the triumphs, failures, and final victory of the hero, with much the same personal interest one feels in the leading figures of a well-told romance of life. Into the web and woof of the story the author has also woven a beautiful picture of an old man and woman who through the song and the presence of the cardinal are brought again into the loving, sympathetic nearness to each other that marked the golden days of their early married life.

This book explores the complexity of the dialectic relationship between ritual-like activities and social structure; focusing on women's increasing presence in Trinidad Carnival and the ways in which their participation becomes part of the conflict over the efforts to change the basic distribution of power within society. Femininity comes forward in Caribbean carnival as the sexualized body that unmasks power relations which are simultaneously affirmed and denied. Giving attention to the ideological process through which gender relations are constructed, this event is analysed in relation to economic, political, and social factors, as well as a consequence of the changes caused by the cultural clash of colonial and postcolonial society.

Die Digitalisierung verändert Wahrnehmungsweisen grundlegend. Algorithmen, Datenbanken und social communities bestimmen westliche Kulturen in einer elementaren Weise wie Klima und Geschichte. Wie das aber auch Frömmigkeit und liturgische Formen verändert, ist in unseren Kirchen kaum bedacht. Elementare Fragen drängen herauf: Welche Bedeutung hat der menschliche Körper für religiöse Erfahrungen und in wie weit sind Sakrament und gelebter Leib Christi digitalisierbar? Was bedeuten virtuelle Sakralräume? Ist der Gottesdienst selbst ein Medium, oder ist er Fest einer Gottesgegenwart, die alle Möglichkeiten menschlicher Kommunikation übersteigt? Dieser Band nimmt die Fragen auf – wissend, wie groß und unerschlossen das Forschungsland ist. Die Beiträge folgen Gottesdienstgestaltungen im digitalen Raum, beleuchten den Zusammenhang von Körper, Medialität und Erfahrung, suchen theologische Wegmarken und kulturwissenschaftliche Vergleichspunkte. MIt Beiträgen von Kristina Fiedler, Christian Grethlein, Ferenc Herzig, Kristin Merle, Volkmar Mühleis, Dirk Pilz, Christian Walti und Katharina Wiefel-Jenner [Liturgy – Body – Media . Challenges for Church Services in Modern Society] The digital world changes how we perceive things in a fundamental way. Algorithms, databases and social communities are defining western cultures. But our churches barely consider how this affects the praxis of piety and liturgical forms. Elementary questions rise up such as: what significance does the human body have for religious experience? To what extent are sacrament and the living body of Christ digitizable? What do virtual sacred spaces signify? Is the service itself one medium or rather the celebration of God's presence that is beyond all possibilities of human communication? This volume takes up questions – recognising that the field of research is enormous and largely unexplored. The contributions observe liturgies in the digital world, take a close look on the relations between body, mediality and experience, and look for points of reference in Theology as well as in Cultural studies.

<div> Advances in RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) technologies have provided an unprecedented opportunity to explore the gene expression landscape across individuals, tissues, and environments by efficiently profiling the RNA sequences present in the samples. When a reference genome sequence or a transcriptome of the sample is available, mapping-based RNA-seq analysis protocols align the RNA-seq reads to the reference sequences, identify novel transcripts, and quantify the abundance of expressed transcripts. </div> <div> The reads that fail to map to the human reference, known as unmapped reads, are a large and often overlooked output of standard RNA-seq analyses. Even in carefully executed experiments, the unmapped reads can comprise a considerable fraction of the complete set of reads produced, and can arise due to technical sequencing produced by low-quality and error-prone copies of the nascent RNA sequence being sampled. Reads can also remain unmapped due to unknown transcripts, recombined B and T cell receptor sequences, A-to-G mismatches from A-to-I RNA editing, trans-splicing, gene fusion, circular RNAs, and the presence of non-host RNA sequences (e.g. bacterial, fungal, and viral organisms). Unmapped reads represent a rich resource for the study of B and T cell receptor repertoires and the human microbiome system—without incurring the expense of additional targeted sequencing. </div> <div> This book introduces and describes the Read Origin Protocol (ROP), a tool that identifies the origin of both mapped and unmapped reads. The protocol first identifies human reads using a standard high-throughput algorithm to map them onto a reference genome and transcriptome. After alignment, reads are grouped into genomic (e.g. CDS, UTRs, introns) and repetitive (e.g. SINEs, LINEs, LTRs) categories. The rest of the ROP protocol characterizes the remaining unmapped reads, which failed to map to the human reference sequences. </div> <div> <br> </div>

This book argues that robots are enchanting humans (as potential intimate partners), because humans are enchanting robots (by performing magical thinking), and that these processes are a part of a significant re-enchantment of the “modern” world. As a foundation, the author examines arguments for and against intimate relationships with robots, particularly sex robots and care robots. Moreover, the book provides a consideration of human-robot interactions and philosophical reflections about robots through the lens of magic and magical thinking as well as theoretical and practical re-evaluations of their status and presence. Furthermore, the author discusses the abovementioned issues in the context of disenchantment and re-enchantment of the world, characterizing modernity as a coexistence of these two processes. The book closes with a consideration of future scenarios regarding the meaning of life in the age of rampant automation and the possibility that designing robots becomes a sort of new eugenics as a consequence of recognizing robots as persons. <i></i> <p></p>
