Fierce opposition to the Italian invasion of Libya in October 1911 demonstrated the fallacies of Insabato’s predictions that a positive Italo-Sanusi relationship would lead to an easy victory. Nevertheless, Italian colonial officials continued to pursue an alliance with the Sanusiyya as a central objective. During World War I Italian and British officials toyed with the idea of exacerbating divisions within the Sanusi family, descendants of the man credited with founding the Sufi order. Rather than negotiating with the recognized head of the Sanusiyya, Ahmed al-Sharif, officials promoted the leadership of his younger cousin, Idris al-Sanusi. In the context of prolonged war, Idris’s negotiations with European officials met with widespread approval among Sanusi elites. For Italian colonial officials, the development of a power-sharing relationship with Idris meant minimizing the Catholic identity of Italian colonial rule, much to the dismay of missionaries and Catholic political interests in Rome.

This article pursues the reiteration of reading as a practice that circumscribes the work of the literary text. In doing so, it responds to particular assertions made in Kate Highman’s “Close(d) Reading and the ‘Potential Space’ of the Literature Classroom.” More pertinently, though, it seeks to reposition the value of reading as a vital attribute in engaging with the humanities and emphasizes that analyzing and the interpreting of the text is the practice indisputably central to the humanistic endeavor. The discussion reiterates that any ways in and through the text are available only by reading, making it necessary to encourage and inculcate it as a central objective so that the work of the text, in accordance with Attridge’s qualification of it, remains productive. Finally, it argues that situating this critical practice as a deliberate objective within the teaching of literature must be reprioritized as a matter of urgency.

This introduction lays out the book’s central objective: to explore why Americans returned to the Civil War throughout the New Deal years. The Civil War offered a prism for exploring the emotional upheaval people experienced in light of the Depression; the political debates that swirled around the state-building initiatives of the New Deal; and struggles over race and civil rights. Also explored here is the evolution of this book, including personal and familial influences on the author.

The nervous and endocrine systems jointly control intestinal movements, secretions of their glands and also participate of the processes of nutrient digestion and absorption. Therefore, the central objective of this study was to verify the existence of a possible relationship between the number of nervous cells and ganglia of the submucosal and myenteric plexuses and the number of endocrine cells in the small intestine of adult D. aurita. The utilized staining techniques were Grimelius, modified Masson-Fontana, direct immunoperoxidase and H-E. Argyrophillic, argentaffin and insulin immunoreactive endocrine cells do not numerically vary between the initial, mid and final regions of the duodenum, jejunum and ileum (P>0.05), except for argyrophillic cells in the jejunum (P>0.05). No numerical relationship has yet been verified between the number of nerve ganglia and endocrine cells, and also between nervous and endocrine cells. We recommended the use of new immunohistochemical techniques to confirm the numerical correlation between the nervous and endocrine systems in the small intestine. The morphology and distribution of endocrine cells and the nerve ganglia studied were similar to those encountered in eutherian mammals.

O presente artigo consiste na análise do filme Olga (2004), que conta a história de Olga Benário em sua luta como militante comunista, prisioneira do regime nazista e, principalmente, sua relação com o Cavaleiro da Esperança, Luiz Carlos Prestes. Ainda que a obra aborde a biografia de Olga, o intuito desta pesquisa é destrinchar o filme em três pontos essenciais para o entendimento de sua estrutura e, posteriormente, apresentar as perspectivas historiográficas a respeito da Intentona Comunista, o papel da Aliança Nacional Libertadora (ANL) e do Partido Comunista Brasileiro (PCB) no movimento e, como objetivo central, trabalhar a esperança da revolução que o filme confere à figura de Luiz Carlos Prestes.Palavras-Chave: Olga, Cinema, História, Religião.AbstractThis article analyzes the movie Olga (2004), which tells the story of Olga Benário in her fight as a communist militant, a prisoner of the Nazi regime, and especially her relationship with the Knight of Hope, Luiz Carlos Prestes. Although the work approaches the biography of Olga, the intention of this research is to unravel the film in three essential points for the understanding of its structure and, later, to present the historiographical perspectives regarding the Communist Uprising of 1935, the role of the National Liberating Alliance (ANL) and the Brazilian Communist Party (PCB) in the movement and, as a central objective, to study the hope of the revolution that the film confers to the figure of Luiz Carlos Prestes..Keywords: Olga, Cinema, History, Religion.

A central objective of this paper is to show how much variation there is across Scandinavian with respect to the morphosyntactic form of interrogative noun phrases. The present paper focuses on three main types of such DPs: (i) phrases involving a cognate of English which, (ii) phrases involving the same element as manner ‘how’ (which is morphologically complex and distinct from degree ‘how’), and (iii) phrases involving ‘what’ with or without an overt kind noun. With respect to all of these different types of noun-phrase-internal wh-expressions an interesting pattern seems to emerge: there are reasons to hold that adnominal wh-expressions start out as modifiers, yielding kind-querying noun phrases, and then develop into determiners, yielding token-querying noun phrases. Although further investigations will have to determine whether such a developmental path (or cycle) is quite general in nature, it can be made perfect sense of with reference to grammaticalization triggered by wh-movement which operates on a DP-structure that distinguishes modification from determination in such a way that the locus of determination is higher than modification.

The central objective of the proposed work in this research is to introduce the innovative concept of an m-polar fuzzy set (m-PFS) in semigroups, that is, the expansion of bipolar fuzzy set (BFS). Our main focus in this study is the generalization of some important results of BFSs to the results of m-PFSs. This paper provides some important results related to m-polar fuzzy subsemigroups (m-PFSSs), m-polar fuzzy ideals (m-PFIs), m-polar fuzzy generalized bi-ideals (m-PFGBIs), m-polar fuzzy bi-ideals (m-PFBIs), m-polar fuzzy quasi-ideals (m-PFQIs) and m-polar fuzzy interior ideals (m-PFIIs) in semigroups. This research paper shows that every m-PFBI of semigroups is the m-PFGBI of semigroups, but the converse may not be true. Furthermore this paper deals with several important properties of m-PFIs and characterizes regular and intra-regular semigroups by the properties of m-PFIs and m-PFBIs.
