    TRICLINIUM PAUPERUM: POVERTY, CHARITY AND THE PAPACY IN THE TIME OF GREGORY THE GREAT AN ABSTRACT SUBMITTED ON THE FIFTEENTH DAY OF MARCH, 2013 TO THE DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE SCHOOL OF LIBERAL ARTS OF TULANE UNIVERSITY FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY BY ___________________________ Miles Doleac APPROVED: ________________________ Dennis P. Kehoe, Ph.D. Co-Director ________________________ F. Thomas Luongo, Ph.D. Co-Director ________________________ Thomas D. Frazel, Ph.D AN ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the role of Gregory I (r. 590-604 CE) in developing permanent ecclesiastical institutions under the authority of the Bishop of Rome to feed and serve the poor and the socio-political world in which he did so. Gregory’s work was part culmination of pre-existing practice, part innovation. I contend that Gregory transformed fading, ancient institutions and ideas—the Imperial annona, the monastic soup kitchen-hospice or xenodochium, Christianity’s “collection for the saints,” Christian caritas more generally and Greco-Roman euergetism—into something distinctly ecclesiastical, indeed “papal.” Although Gregory has long been closely associated with charity, few have attempted to unpack in any systematic way what Gregorian charity might have looked like in practical application and what impact it had on the Roman Church and the Roman people. I believe that we can see the contours of Gregory’s initiatives at work and, at least, the faint framework of an organized system of ecclesiastical charity that would emerge in clearer relief in the eighth and ninth centuries under Hadrian I (r. 772-795) and Leo III (r.

  • Rank Orders of Mammalian Pathogenicity-Related PB2
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Rank orders of mammalian pathogenicity-related PB2 mutations of avian infuenza A viruses Chung-Young Lee1, Se-Hee An1, Jun-Gu Choi 4, Youn-Jeong Lee4, Jae-Hong Kim1,3 & Hyuk-Joon Kwon2,3,5* The PB2 gene is one of the key determinants for the mammalian adaptation of avian infuenza A viruses (IAVs). Although mammalian pathogenicity-related mutations (MPMs) in PB2 genes were identifed in diferent genetic backgrounds of avian IAVs, the relative efects of single or multiple mutations on viral ftness could not be directly compared. Furthermore, their mutational steps during mammalian adaptation had been unclear. In this study, we collectively compared the efects of individual and combined MPMs on viral ftness and determined their rank orders using a prototypic PB2 gene. Early acquired mutations may determine the function and potency of subsequent mutations and be important for recruiting multiple, competent combinations of MPMs. Higher mammalian pathogenicity was acquired with the greater accumulation of MPMs. Thus, the rank orders and the prototypic PB2 gene may be useful for predicting the present and future risks of PB2 genes of avian and mammalian IAVs. Waterfowl are reservoirs for infuenza A viruses (IAVs), and close interaction between waterfowl and other ani- mals causes occasional cross species transmission to result in successful settle-down by acquiring host adaptive mutations in their eight segmented genomes (PB2, PB1, PA, HA, NP, NA, M, and NS)1. In particular, the PB2 protein, which is involved in cap snatching of the host mRNA, has been regarded as one of the key molecules to overcome species-specifc host barriers2–4.

Dietary recall data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2011–2016 (children aged 1–18 years-old; n = 9254; CACFP n = 159) were used in the analysis.

Access to plant and animal books impacts a communities’ ability to learn about their environment. In this study, the number of plant and animal books available to people through local libraries in northern Kentucky, and neighboring counties in Ohio and Indiana were counted and a survey assessing one’s preferences and likeliness to participate in conservation activities was distributed to local residents. Based on the collected data, a statistically significant relationship (p < 0.05) was found between access to plant and animal books available at local libraries and the likelihood of people to participate in conservation activities.

Background and History: Since 1971, NHANES, has been collecting information on the use of DSs from participants. These data are critical to national nutrition surveillance and have been used to characterize usage patterns, examine trends over time, assess the percentage of the population meeting or exceeding nutrient recommendations, and to help elucidate the sources contributing nutrients to the diet of the US population.

  • PHOCAEAN COLONISATION* Jean-Paul Morel During the Last Few Decades There Has Been a Noticeable Revival of Interest in Phocaean E
    PHOCAEAN COLONISATION* Jean-Paul Morel During the last few decades there has been a noticeable revival of interest in Phocaean expansion, for long somewhat neglected in the history of Greek colonisation.1 This migration has many uncommon aspects, not least its late beginnings—in the West it really did not start until the 6th century, while many other colonial movements had begun in the 8th or 7th centuries. Arriving, as a result, in a Mediterranean which was already largely occupied, the Phocaeans were forced to establish themselves in more remote regions than other Greeks (Fig. 1). On the other hand, this expansion covered a particularly long period of time, until Marseilles fell under Roman domination in 49 B.C. This double peculiarity of lateness and dura- tion explains why the Hellenistic period occupies an exceptional place in the history of Phocaean colonisation, which we can mention here only marginally. Phocaea and the First Phocaean Expansion On the whole, Phocaea, the metropolis of the Phocaeans, has been studied less than its main colonies. F. Sartiaux carried out short investigations there in 1914 and again in 1920. In 1953–55 E. Akurgal directed major excavations, published briefly. But the research carried out by Ö. Özyi<it since 1989 has enlarged our knowledge considerably.2 * Translated by Nevena Georgieva. Where no confusion is likely to arise, Spanish surnames are given in the shorter form here, but in full in the bibliography. For example, Sanmartí 1989 refers to the author Sanmartí i Grego (Editor). 1 In particular, since a ‘founder’ colloquium in 1966: Velia e i Focei in Occidente 1966.
