The prophet and the prophetic feature prominently in Rainer Maria Rilke’s Neue Gedichte (1907) and in Stefan Zweig’s one and only pacifist drama Jeremias (1917). This chapter examines the poetic and rhetorical significance of their renderings of the Jeremiah myth through in-depth textual and structural analysis. It shows the critical attitude towards the prophetic as expressed in Rilke’s poem “Jeremia” challenging the divine voice, which had turned the prophet into its mere mouthpiece. Furthermore, it discusses the interrelation between Rilke’s poem and Zweig’s drama in thematic terms, as well as the influence of Nietzsche’s Zarathustra on both.

Das Hauptthema des Artikels ist die Rezeption der österreichischen Literatur der Zwischenkriegszeit in den Wiadomości Literackie. Das war eine der populärsten Zeitschriften dieser Periode, die sich sowohl die kulturelle Bildung der Gesellschaft, als auch die Verbreitung der fremden Literatur zum Ziel setzte. Am meisten wurde zwar die französische Literatur propagiert, man schenkte aber auch viel Aufmerksamkeit den deutschsprachigen Autoren (das beweisen Forscher, die im Artikel zitiert wurden). Man unterschied damals zwischen der deutschen und der österreichischen Literatur nicht, aber es wurden viele Verfasser, die heutzutage als Vertreter der österreichischen Literatur gelten, präsentiert: Joseph Roth, Stefan Zweig, Rainer Maria Rilke, Hugo von Hofmannsthal, Arthur Schnitzler, Ödön von Horváth, Franz Werfel u.a. Die Autorin beschreibt und kommentiert die Interviews mit den Schriftstellern, die Rezensionen ihrer Bücher und andere Artikel in der Zeitschrift Wiadomości Literackie.

Spirillum serpens possesses a surface layer protein which exhibits a regular hexagonal packing of the morphological subunits. A morphological model of the structure of the protein has been proposed at a resolution of about 25 Å, in which the morphological unit might be described as having the appearance of a flared-out, hollow cylinder with six ÅspokesÅ at the flared end. In order to understand the detailed association of the macromolecules, it is necessary to do a high resolution structural analysis. Large, single layered arrays of the surface layer protein have been obtained for this purpose by means of extensive heating in high CaCl2, a procedure derived from that of Buckmire and Murray. Low dose, low temperature electron microscopy has been applied to the large arrays.As a first step, the samples were negatively stained with neutralized phosphotungstic acid, and the specimens were imaged at 40,000 magnification by use of a high resolution cold stage on a JE0L 100B. Low dose images were recorded with exposures of 7-9 electrons/Å2. The micrographs obtained (Fig. 1) were examined by use of optical diffraction (Fig. 2) to tell what areas were especially well ordered.

While DNA-dependent RNA polymerase represents one of the key enzymes involved in transcription and ultimately in gene expression in procaryotic and eucaryotic cells, little progress has been made towards elucidation of its 3-D structure at the molecular level over the past few years. This is mainly because to date no 3-D crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction analysis have been obtained with this rather large (MW ~500 kd) multi-subunit (α2ββ'ζ). As an alternative, we have been trying to form ordered arrays of RNA polymerase from E. coli suitable for structural analysis in the electron microscope combined with image processing. Here we report about helical polymers induced from holoenzyme (α2ββ'ζ) at low ionic strength with 5-7 mM MnCl2 (see Fig. 1a). The presence of the ζ-subunit (MW 86 kd) is required to form these polymers, since the core enzyme (α2ββ') does fail to assemble into such structures under these conditions.

Introduction: The analysis and interpretation of electron micrographs of cells and tissues, often requires the accurate extraction of structural networks, which either provide immediate 2D or 3D information, or from which the desired information can be inferred. The images of these structures contain lines and/or curves whose orientation, lengths, and intersections characterize the overall network.Some examples exist of studies that have been done in the analysis of networks of natural structures. In, Sebok and Roemer determine the complexity of nerve structures in an EM formed slide. Here the number of nodes that exist in the image describes how dense nerve fibers are in a particular region of the skin. Hildith proposes a network structural analysis algorithm for the automatic classification of chromosome spreads (type, relative size and orientation).
