Stranded Seaweed on the Isle of Anglesey: A Bangor University M.Sc. Thesis

Stranded Seaweed on the Isle of Anglesey: A Bangor University M.Sc. Thesis

Seaweed plays an important ecological role in coastal ecosystems and provide an inherent economical interest. Anglesey (Wales/Cymru, UK) is considered an ideal place for both seaweed collection and beach tourism, therefore a generalised approach to the knowledge of the stranded seaweed could be used for future plans and management. With this purpose, four west-coast and four east-coast beaches were studied over the summer. Four surveys per beach were undertaken on the stranded seaweed, and comparisons of the following parameters were made among beaches and between coasts: strandline width, coverage, biomass, species richness, diversity, evenness, occurrence and contribution to similarities and dissimilarities between and within beaches. Width was mainly affected by the beach exposure, whereas coverage was seen to be determined by the growth cycle of the inter-tidal species. No pattern in species richness, biodiversity and evenness associated to coast, currents or exposure was found. Ascophyllum nodosum, Fucus serratus, Fucus vesiculosus and Laminaria spp. were the main groups involved in the strandline differences between the geologically different West and East coasts. Storms and tourism were observed to affect the results. Two particularities were the pooling area characterised by the high accumulation of drift seaweed detected in Cable Bay, and the considerable heterogeneity in species of the White Beach strandline due to the different source communities at both ends of the beach and currents acting upon different depths. An increase of seaweed biomass was observed from June to July, corresponding to the seasonal peak in the growth cycle. Washing-up rates were calculated and used to obtain a rough estimate of annual wet weight of drift on the isle: 4,846 tonnesDryWeight year-1 (61.38-122.46 kgWetWeight m-1 year-1). Additionally, the pattern of the invasive species Sargassum muticum, found only on the West coast, was also discussed.Finally, factors contributing to the movement of seaweed along the beach were studied, by releasing tagged specimens of A. nodosum, F. serratus and F. vesiculosus and revisiting the beach 24 hours later. Marine currents were discovered to be the main factor influencing the movement, as wind and vesicles were not shown to have significant effects on the drift.This M.Sc. Thesis was awarded a Distinction.

Ruben Dario Centennial Studies

Ruben Dario Centennial Studies

University of Texas Press
1970
pokkari
Rubén Darío (1867–1916), the undisputed standard-bearer of the Modernist movement in Hispanic letters, was born in Nicaragua. In 1886 he went to Chile, where he published Azul (1888), his first important book of poems and stories. Later he lived for extended periods in Argentina, Spain, and France, and in these countries produced his best work: compelling poems of beauty, style, and dignity, especially Cantos de vida y esperanza (1905). The perfection of form, exotic essences, and rich ornamentation of his earlier work give way in his most mature poems to self-probings and doubts, the anguish so characteristic of twentieth-century literature. But the hedonistic note, the quenchless appetite for life, dominating Azul and Prosas profanas (1896) never die out, and are magnificently present in El poema del otoño (1910). Darío has had a tremendous impact on Hispanic literature. He is one of the best examples of the poet who is true to his art as determined by his innermost impulses. His poetry has fertilized a whole generation of writers in Spanish America and in Spain, and even now his influence continues to be felt.

Rubén Darío and the Romantic Search for Unity

Rubén Darío and the Romantic Search for Unity

Cathy L. Jrade

University of Texas Press
1983
pokkari
Modernism was the major Spanish American literary movement of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Leader of that influential movement was Rubén Darío, the Nicaraguan now recognized as one of the most important Hispanic poets of all time. Like the Romantics in England and the Symbolists on the Continent, Darío and other Modernists were strongly influenced by occultist thought. But, as the poet Octavio Paz has written, "academic criticism has ... preferred to close its eyes to the stream of occultism that runs throughout Darío's work. This silence damages our comprehension of his poetry." Cathy Login Jrade's groundbreaking study corrects this critical oversight. Her work clearly demonstrates that esoteric tradition is central to Modernism and that an understanding of this centrality clarifies both the nature of the movement and its relationship to earlier European literature. After placing Modernism in a broad historical and literary perspective, Jrade examines the impact of esoteric beliefs upon Darío's view of the world and the role of poetry in it. Through detailed and insightful analyses of key poems, she explores the poet's quest for solutions to the nineteenth-century crisis of belief. The movement that Ruben Darío headed brought Hispanic poetry into the mainstream of the "modern tradition," with its sense of fragmentation and alienation and its hope for integration and reconciliation with nature. Rubén Darío and the Romantic Search for Unity enriches our understanding of that movement and the work of its leading poet.

Selected Poems of Rubén Darío

Selected Poems of Rubén Darío

Toward the close of the last century, the poetry of the Spanish-speaking world was pallid, feeble, almost a corpse. It needed new life and a new direction. The exotic, erratic, revolutionary poet who changed the course of Spanish poetry and brought it into the mainstream of twentieth-century Modernism was Félix Rubén García Sarmiento (1867-1916) of Nicaragua, who called himself Rubén Darío. Since its original publication in 1965, this edition of Darío's poetry has made English-speaking readers better acquainted with the poet who, as Enrique Anderson Imbert said, "divides literary history into 'before' and 'after.'" The selection of poems is intended to represent the whole range of Darío's verse, from the stinging little poems of Thistles to the dark, brooding lines of Songs of the Argentine and Other Poems. Also included, in the Epilogue, is a transcript of a radio dialogue between two other major poets, Federico García Lorca of Spain and Pablo Neruda of Chile, who celebrate the rich legacy of Rubén Darío.

"Multiple backgrounds can form such two- and three-dimensional ideas that they take you to the brink of lunacy, but I have used this rich background and ethnic landscape for creating art. As a student at the University of Minnesota, I often wondered what the study of Russian history, Shakespeare, English literature, or Freud . . . had to do with cleaning onions in Hollandale, Minnesota, picking potatoes in Hoople, North Dakota, or visiting relatives in Michoacán. This diversity of ideas can produce a three-headed monster or an artist, and I chose the latter." -Ruben TrejoRuben Trejo: Beyond Boundaries / Aztlán y más allá is the first comprehensive survey of Trejo's art and career. It focuses on more than fifty works from 1964 through the present, including pieces from his delightful life-size, puppet-like Clothes for Day of the Dead series; works from the Calzones series -- cast bronze underwear and jalapenos -- that challenge the Spanish machismo culture; seminal examples of his lifelong exploration of the cruciform image; and much more. The volume includes biographical and interpretive essays, as well as a chronology, list of exhibitions, and bibliography.Ruben Trejo (1937–2009) was born in a Chicago, Burlington & Quincy railroad yard in St. Paul, Minnesota, where his father, a mixed Tarascan Indian and Hispanic from Michoacán, Mexico, and his mother, from Ixtlan in the same Mexican province, had found a home for the family in a boxcar while his father worked for the railroad. Trejo became the first in his family to graduate from college, and in 1973 he moved to the Pacific Northwest, where he began a thirty-year association with Eastern Washington University as teacher and artist.His isolation from major centers of Chicano culture led him to search for self-identity through his art. Influenced and inspired by such writers and artists as Octavio Paz and Guillermo Gómez-Pena, he explored a dynamic, multidimensional worldview through his sculpture and mixed-media pieces and created a body of work that deftly limns his identity as an artist and a Chicano. Throughout his long teaching career, he worked tirelessly to create opportunities for young Chicanos through tutoring and mentoring.
