RESUMO: Este artigo pretende estudar a relação da construção do ethos e da identidade no personagem principal do filme Pequeno Grande Homem (Little Big Man, 1970) de Arthur Penn, além de salientar as representações do Outro (os nativos norte-americanos) na narrativa fílmica. Através de um encontro interdisciplinar entre componentes da Análise do discurso (AD), da linha francesa de Maingueneau, e os estudos culturais, propomos uma visão mais ampla sobre a questão do eu e do Outro no gênero de faroeste. Os referencias teóricos estão focados em Tzvetan Todorov e Stuart Hall, para analisarmos a questão do Outro, a cultura e a identidade. Para enveredarmos na temática do ethos, buscamos teorias do discurso baseadas nos estudos de Dominique Maingueneau, que, por sinal, pertencem à linha de pesquisa da AD de linha francesa. Pretendemos, através deste estudo, problematizar a questão do Outro, entendendo que o personagem principal do filme desconstrói um ethos pré-discursivo, estabelecido na cultura norte-americana, em que a tradição via o nativo como selvagem e bestial. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Pequeno Grande Homem; outro; ethos; identidade; faroeste.   ABSTRACT: This paper intends to analyze the relation of ethos and identity construction in the protagonist of the film Little Big Man (Arthur Penn, 1970), besides stressing out the representations of the Other (the North American natives) in the filmic narrative. Through an interdisciplinary approach between components of the Discourse Analysis from the French studies of Maingueneau, and cultural studies, we propose a substantial vision about the matter of the other and I in the western genre. The theoretical references are focused on Tzvetan Todorov and Stuart Hall, to analyze the matter of the other, culture and identity. To analyze the discursive ethos, we relied on discourse theories based on the studies of Dominique Maingueneau, that, by the way, belong to the French Discourse Analysis. Through this study, we intend to problematize the issue of the other, understanding that the protagonist of the film deconstructs a pre-discursive ethos, established on the North American culture, where tradition saw the native as a savage. KEYWORDS: Little Big Man; other; ethos; identity; western.

Much of linguistic typology is inherently categorical. In large-scale typological surveys, grammatical constructions, distinctions, and even variables are typically classified as present, absent, or embodying one of a set of specified options. This work is valuable for a multitude of purposes, and in many cases such categorization is sufficient. In others, we can advance our understanding further if we take a more nuanced approach, considering the extent to which a particular construction, distinction, or variable is installed in the grammar. An important tool for this approach is the examination of unscripted speech in context, complete with prosody. This point is illustrated here with Mohawk, an Iroquoian language indigenous to the North American Northeast. As will be seen, the two types of construction which might be identified as relative clauses are emergent, one less integrated into the grammar than the other. Examination of spontaneous speech indicates that the earliest stages of development are prosodic, as speakers shape their messages according to their communicative purposes at each moment.

The problem in judging M. Servan-Schreiber's message is that he reaches some sound conclusions on the basis of dubious premises, from which he derives recommendations which could be disastrous.There may be some satisfaction in seeing a Frenchman concerned with le défi, russe instead of le défi américain, but his interpretation of one is as crude as was his interpretation of the other. The shock of revelation that there are common interests of the Atlantic countries in economic as well as strategic matters is understandably more startling to a Frenchman than to others. It was all set out in 1949 in Article 2 of the North Atlantic Treaty and was restated eloquently in 1973 by Mr. Kissinger. But last spring European leaders were included to see the latter as a self-interested plea from a weak United States to a prosperous Europe. The North American countries were reminded that their role in Europe was simply to defend it on request.

Weigel was speaking to a group of young graduate students at a time when the North American University had not yet inaugurated its headlong flight into professional programs of every description and at every level of instruction. If memory serves this reviewer correctly, his argument was that the university was properly the place of intellectual endeavour that was prepared to re-examine the first principles of the various disciplines. Professional schools, on the other hand, existed to provide agreed-upon intellectual resources in order to function in practical settings

How is medicine practiced on the other side of the world? As medical students in Canada, we learn much about pathophysiology and the North American healthcare system. Yet important observations can be made about how other cultures deliver care that can be used to help us address shortcomings of our own. In this opinion piece, I use my experience studying cardiac surgery in Shanghai, China to explore how each country confronts a similar problem: access to care in rural medicine. Despite their differences, both China and Canada come to creative solutions, reflecting the incredible diversity of their patients.

AbstractObservations were made on the developmental responses of the North American braconid species, Eubazus crassigaster, a parasitoid of the white pine weevil, Pissoles strobi, and three European congeneric species, E. semirugosus, E. robustus, and Eubazus sp. Several populations of Eubazus spp. were compared in their phenology in the laboratory and under natural conditions. When reared in the laboratory on non-diapausing Pissodes castaneus, mountain populations of E. semirugosus and E. robustus entered into an obligatory diapause in the host larva, whereas all the other populations tested developed continuously. Diapausing larvae continued their development only after having experienced at least three months at 2°C. Non-diapausing populations of Eubazus spp. significantly differed in the duration of pre-imaginal development, with E. semirugosus being the fastest developing species and E. robustus the slowest. Outdoor rearings of Eubazus spp. on P. castaneus showed that E. crassigaster, Eubazus sp. and the lowland biotype of E. semirugosus emerged in the year of oviposition if this occurred early enough to allow parasitoid development. In contrast, a majority of E. robustus individuals overwintered in the host larvae, regardless of the oviposition date. The diapausing, mountain biotype of E. semirugosus is considered as the most promising candidate for control of P. strobi in Canada, because it is likely to be better adapted to the life cycle of the target host than the other Eubazus spp., including the native E. crassigaster.

AbstractWe mapped the molecular cloud associated with the North American Nebula in the NH3 lines and the H2O maser using the Kashima 34-m telescope. The line ratio shows the molecular gas is cold. For the clumps and subclumps in the cloud we also estimate the star forming efficiency (SFE). The east end of the cloud shows the highest SEF, 0.62, and the other end is the lowest, 0.06. The 3 dimensional structure derived using the published Hα map suggests the east end is in the HII region and it should be a reason why the SFE is high there.

Alternating field and thermal demagnetization study of the Lac St-Jean anorthosite and related rock units in the central portion of the exposed Grenville Province reveals two components of magnetization, one of reversed and the other of normal polarity. Both components are thought to have been acquired during the last regional metamorphism, which was sufficiently intense in this area (mostly amphibolite grade) to reset any earlier magnetization. Corresponding paleopoles at 193°W, 8°S (dm = 7.3°, dp = 4.6°) and 213°W, 19°S (dm = 10.5°, dp = 8.5°) lie along the 950–900 Ma segment of the recently calibrated Grenville track of the North American apparent polar wander path, a track that has thus far been defined largely by results from rock units of the western Grenville.

First Time

The basidiomycete genus Aleurodiscus Rabenh. ex J. Schroet. has been variously interpreted by several authors. In its broadest sense the genus comprises the cyphelloid and corticioid homobasidiomycetes with large basidiospores. Aleurodiscus (sensu lato), thus defined, presently consists of nearly 110 named species, which appear to be referable to about 75 accepted taxa.The present work is a taxonomic re-evaluation of the genus Aleurodiscus. Some attempt to establish specific limits for the North American Aleurodisci follows and the taxonomic position of Aleurodiscus (sensu stricto) is considered. Although particular emphasis has been devoted to the North American species, practically all of the previously described species of Aleurodiscus have been reviewed by the author. When most of the named species of Aleurodiscus are compared, they appear to form a natural assemblage on the basis of their spore amyloidity and marked affinity in microstructure. These species have been retained within the genus Aleurodiscus (sensu stricto) (TYPE SPECIES: A. amorphus (Pers. per Purt.: Fr.) J. Schroet.). Certain species formerly placed in Aleurodiscus belong elsewhere. These species remain either to be reallocated into other recognized genera or to be relegated into new genera. The taxonomy of these non-amyloid-spored species will be discussed in a subsequent paper.Only the amyloid-spored species of Aleurodiscus are accounted for in the present paper. The North American and neotropical species are described, discussed, and wherever necessary illustrated. Considerable emphasis has been placed on nomenclature and synonymy. Distribution and host relationships are mentioned and those specimens examined are cited. Five previously described species are recorded for the North American mycoflora for the first time. These include Aleurodiscus aurantius (Pers. per Fr.) J. Schroet., A. disciformis (DC. per Fr.) Pat., A. fennicus Laurila, A. lapponicus Litsch., and A. tsugae Yasuda. Five species are described as new to science: Aleurodiscus abietis Jacks, et Lemke, sp. nov.; A. laurentianus Jacks, et Lemke, sp. nov. A. macrocystidiatus Lemke, sp. nov. A. piceinus Lyon et Lemke, sp. nov.; and A. spiniger Rogers et Lemke, sp. nov. The combination Aleurodiscus lividocoeruleus (Karst.) Lemke, comb. nov. is provided. A new genus, Aleurocystidiellum Lemke, gen. nov. (MONOTYPE: A. subcruentatum (Berk. et Curt.) Lemke, gen. & comb. nov.), is proposed to accommodate an amyloid-spored species not considered to be cogeneric with the other amyloid-spored Aleurodisci. Aleurodiscus stereoides Yasuda is recognized as a facultative synonym of Aleurocystidiellum subcruentatum (Berk. et Curt.) Lemke.The amyloid-spored species of Aleurodiscus (sensu stricto) have been compared with certain of the other amyloid-spored hymenomycetes, and a key to the amyloid-spored Aleurodisci and allied genera is provided under the heading Stereaceae. A discussion of microstructure and terminology for the genus is given to facilitate the use of the key.

North American Craton

Three tectonostratigraphic successions are established from remapping of the area near Barkerville and Cariboo River. The first, of Late Proterozoic to Cambrian sediments, was deposited on the shallow to moderately deep platformal shelf west of and derived from the exposed North American craton. The second is an unconformably overlying Ordovician to Permian sequence of sedimentary and volcanic rocks representing a basinal environment with periodic highs. These packages of sediments were deposited on the North American craton and its western transitional extensions. The third succession, composed of oceanic chert and basalt of the Permo-Pennsylvanian Antler Formation, was thrust eastward over the other two during the early Mesozoic. The three successions were folded, faulted, and metamorphosed during the mid-Mesozoic Columbian Orogeny. The Devono-Mississippian Cariboo Orogeny, which was thought to have affected all of the first sequence and part of the second, could not be documented in its type locality. The geology of the Barkerville – Cariboo River area has many similarities with that of Selwyn Basin and Cassiar platform of northern British Columbia and Yukon.

Some time ago in examining our species of ant lions I noticed that our two large genera, Myrmeleon and Brachynemurus, could readily be separated by the position of the origin of the radial sector; in one much nearer to the base of the wing than in the other. The characters previously used for Brachynemurns, as the forked costal veinlets, the length of the tibial spurs, etc., had not been satisfactory; and the discovery of this distinction led me to examine the other forms of the family with a view to their better classification.
