Reconstruction is an essential tool for gaining knowledge of shipwrecks in maritime archaeology. This paper examines some theoretical and practical consequences of viewing vessels not as finished objects but as things that are continuously being made during their lifetime. This is done by proposing perspectives on things that uphold their biography as an essential characteristic. To illustrate this, the 16th-century shipwreck Bispevika 16 (Oslo harbour) will be an example of a vessel showing minor and significant technical changes throughout its life. Its most manifest change is the addition of an outer layer of carvel planks on the lapstrake-built hull. This makes this vessel one of a growing number of archaeologically known converted lapstrake-built vessels in Northern Europe.

The thrust of the present paper is that contemporary philosophical theories of consciousness are in the grip of a distorted perspective on the nature of their subject. They are absorbed in an understanding of consciousness which overemphasizes its role in grasping intentional objects, while undervaluing its functioning as the receptive ground to whom things are given and in whom they are disclosed. I first make the distinction more precise, discerning two complementary modes of consciousness: the accusative mode, and the dative mode, respectively. Taking John Locke as a primary representative of the disregard for the dative mode, I proceed to show that this negligence leads to a fundamentally incomplete, and therefore ultimately incoherent, picture regarding the nature of consciousness. This is further demonstrated with respect to some contemporary philosophical theories of consciousness: higher-order monitoring theories, and self-representational theories. I then move on to inquire can the dative mode hypothesis receive support from significant trends in contemporary neuroscience. While interesting connections are drawn in relations to affective neuroscience and to spontaneous background activity, I argue that in order to do full justice to the receptive side of consciousness we must ultimately resort to the more radical concept of pure consciousness, developed primarily within Hindu (and to a certain extent Buddhist) philosophy.

This thesis’ purpose is to provide an introduction to the history of medical culture in early modern Europe, focusing on the birth and development of the anatomical theaters. Particularly, attention will be paid on the first two to have ever been built, which are the anatomical theaters of Padua, in Italy (1595), and of Leiden, in the Netherlands (1597). The foundation of permanent theaters of anatomy is indeed only the arrival point of a long development of anatomical teaching which already started during the 14th century, when the first temporary locus anatomicus started being built and used by university professors. They are the symbol of the triumph of the demonstrative method, which sees the professor actively dissecting a body, over the traditional way of teaching anatomy, based on the passive study of classical books and manuals. The public dissections that started taking place yearly embraced humanist thoughts and ideals, and in particular the belief that knowledge of Man would lead to understanding the whole creation and, eventually, of God. Anatomical dissections were indeed accomplishing both a profane ritual, valorizing the scientific discoveries, and a sacred one, where mankind, obsessed with death, respected the divine image of the human body. Attention will be chiefly aimed on Italian and Dutch universities’ different approach to medicine, dealing with the foundation as well as the public anatomy and regulations of each anatomy theater.

The wastewater treatment research is based on industrial processes and agriculturalwastewater treatment methods. Most of the river basins are closed to severe water storages, brought on by the simultaneous effects of agricultural growth, industrialization and urbanization. In these research the aerobic, anaerobic or the combination of methods used. Other than that an adsorption and coagulation have been applied to remove the pollution. The research on chemical industrial wastewater treatment was first studied on organic removal efficiency of a lab scale system using aerobic and anaerobic reactors. The aerobic waste water treatment as a reductive medium is receiving increased interest due to its low operation and maintenance costs and aerobic waste water treatment is easy to obtain. The primary goal of the wastewater treatment process is to eliminate various pollutants such as solids, organic carbon, nutrients, inorganic salts, metals, pathogens and so on effective wastewater treatme...
