Predicting the Weather
Author: Katharine Anderson
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 0226019705
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 342
Book Description
Victorian Britain, with its maritime economy and strong links between government and scientific enterprises, founded an office to collect meteorological statistics in 1854 in an effort to foster a modern science of the weather. But as the office turned to prediction rather than data collection, the fragile science became a public spectacle, with its forecasts open to daily scrutiny in the newspapers. And meteorology came to assume a pivotal role in debates about the responsibility of scientists and the authority of science. Studying meteorology as a means to examine the historical identity of prediction, Katharine Anderson offers here an engrossing account of forecasting that analyzes scientific practice and ideas about evidence, the organization of science in public life, and the articulation of scientific values in Victorian culture. In Predicting the Weather, Anderson grapples with fundamental questions about the function, intelligibility, and boundaries of scientific work while exposing the public expectations that shaped the practice of science during this period. A cogent analysis of the remarkable history of weather forecasting in Victorian Britain, Predicting the Weather will be essential reading for scholars interested in the public dimensions of science.

Coleridge and Shelley
Author: Sally West
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317164598
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 210
Book Description
Sally West's timely study is the first book-length exploration of Coleridge's influence on Shelley's poetic development. Beginning with a discussion of Shelley's views on Coleridge as a man and as a poet, West argues that there is a direct correlation between Shelley's desire for political and social transformation and the way in which he appropriates the language, imagery, and forms of Coleridge, often transforming their original meaning through subtle readjustments of context and emphasis. While she situates her work in relation to recent concepts of literary influence, West is focused less on the psychology of the poets than on the poetry itself. She explores how elements such as the development of imagery and the choice of poetic form, often learnt from earlier poets, are intimately related to poetic purpose. Thus on one level, her book explores how the second-generation Romantic poets reacted to the beliefs and ideals of the first, while on another it addresses the larger question of how poets become poets, by returning the work of one writer to the literary context from which it developed. Her book is essential reading for specialists in the Romantic period and for scholars interested in theories of poetic influence.

Air's Appearance
Author: Jayne Elizabeth Lewis
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 0226476715
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 306
Book Description
In Air’s Appearance, Jayne Elizabeth Lewis enlists her readers in pursuit of the elusive concept of atmosphere in literary works. She shows how diverse conceptions of air in the eighteenth century converged in British fiction, producing the modern literary sense of atmosphere and moving novelists to explore the threshold between material and immaterial worlds. Air’s Appearance links the emergence of literary atmosphere to changing ideas about air and the earth’s atmosphere in natural philosophy, as well as to the era’s theories of the supernatural and fascination with social manners—or, as they are now known, “airs.” Lewis thus offers a striking new interpretation of several standard features of the Enlightenment—the scientific revolution, the decline of magic, character-based sociability, and the rise of the novel—that considers them in terms of the romance of air that permeates and connects them. As it explores key episodes in the history of natural philosophy and in major literary works like Paradise Lost, “The Rape of the Lock,” Robinson Crusoe, and The Mysteries of Udolpho, this book promises to change the atmosphere of eighteenth-century studies and the history of the novel.

The Toothful Tale
Author: Dr Pratyush Dhage
Publisher: Pratyush
ISBN:
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 178
Book Description
SYNOPSIS This tale traces a part of the life of Yash and his doctor friends, namely Tania, Maahi, Krishna, Siddhanta and Balminder. This story and theme are one of those which has been attempted for the first time. There have been stories on general doctors but never especially on DENTISTS or their life. A dentist ever shown in movies is generally depicted as a funny or a stupid or a desperate person. This story takes the reader inside a ‘Dental College’ and ‘A hospital’ to bring out the incidents that go on. These include a viva, argument with teachers, a doctor slapping his mate in front of the patients and getting two notices from the principal. A strike against the hike in fees and its ‘political’ end by the college management, the chaos when a HOD enters the department, the atmosphere before a Dental council inspection in the college. From viewing surgeries performed by their favourite teachers to finally the feeling of going and registering as one... The Toothful Tale covers it all. It all starts on a train in which a young dentist (Yash) is going for his Internship. In the train, he finds company with a girl (Anvesha) who is a first-year student in his college. The girl forgets to ask what Yash does and a hilarious incident tells Anvesha that Yash is a senior in her own college! A tale in which, young doctors learn to examine and deal with a variety of patients ranging from a man who has Trigeminal Neuralgia (The worlds worst skull-cracking headache) to a woman who cannot close her mouth due to Mandibular Dislocation. They see a patient who has broken a safety pin in his tooth, keep cool when one comes and fights with them, meet a crying 55-year man who holds their feet and then a 70-year-old man who desires to die instead of living in pain. From a 16 year old boy who has a life threatening allergic reaction called as Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis to a dead body that has the brain and eye hanging out. From a 15 yr boy who has Psoriatic Arthritis, to a 35-year-old woman who has Pemphigus Vulgaris - The most deadly skin disease in the world. They take part in the surgery on a case of Temporomandibular Joint Ankylosis and enjoy the comments made by the operating dentist. It also traces the thoughts of the new doctors as they encounter these cases. They on their part, try to deal with the inhuman attitude of the nurses and the ward boys toward the ailing patients and do their part in making life easy and comfortable for the ailing... They find around them many serious things that include infanticide in the sewer and studying for a good life. They play with small kids, cry over the thought of being bad to parents, feel happy when good incidents come in others life, listen to a real-life story told by a Railway Engine Driver From discussing dowry to bringing out a small truth in today’s most marriages; and doing their part to help and punish some dastardly acts such as eve-teasing, child abuse and trying to stop a group of rioters of a political party. They enjoy hilarious incidents over a year such as puncturing a teacher’s car tyre to impersonating one at a conference. They go for tours, live for two days without electricity and sometimes race cars at night on the Marine Drive. From using their sophisticated dental instruments to handling weird and irresistible gadgets, from discussing funny errors taking place in the clinics with patients to saving innocent juniors from ragging, they do it all... A friendship story that starts in a train and unknowingly blooms into a heart tickling love tale. A tale that brings out the feelings of a boy and a girl when they go out together for the first time on an outing, a tale that tells about the pleasures of sneaking out of the hostel for the thrill of getting wet in the rain with someone you like. Some different ideas of romance wherein, they go for a round through the wards of a hospital, get their teeth cleaned on a dental chair and recreate the appearance of a 13 year old young boy with a broken tooth. A story in which, a proposal on the Yamuna Bridge gets its suitable reply in the world’s finest building - The Taj Mahal. There is love, fun and then there is the girl slapping the boy for his mistake that nearly costs him his life. A romantic kiss that starts in 2008 and ends in 2009, getting engaged for real in a heartwarming situation at the end, The Dentists live a year of life that everyone wants to live at least once...

Book Description
This is the first book whose subject is the music, sounds and silences of Antarctica. From 2011 until 2014, Australia marked its long-standing connection with Antarctica by celebrating the centenary of the Australasian Antarctic Expedition. The icy continent, with its extremes of climate and environment and unique soundscapes, offers great potential for creative achievements in the world of music and sound. This book demonstrates the intellectual and creative engagement of artists, musicians, scientists and writers. Consciousness of sounds — in particular, musical ones — has not been at the forefront of our aims in polar endeavours, but listening to and appreciating them has been as important there as elsewhere.
