the present study is a survey os postmodern historical novel with respect to the voice of women. it argues how the recorded history is regulated by the rules of power and how women have been excluded from this discourse.ther study analysez angela carters nights at the circus as an example of postmodern historical novel to illustrate how this novel has questioned the historical narrative and how it has inserted women into history by breaking the rules of patriarchy.

15 صفحه اولThe optimal calibration hypothesis: how life history modulates the brain's social pain network
A growing body of work demonstrates that the brain responds similarly to physical and social injury. Both experiences are associated with activity in the dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (dACC) and anterior insula. This dual functionality of the dACC and anterior insula underscores the evolutionary importance of maintaining interpersonal bonds. Despite the weight that evolution has placed on so...
متن کاملA dynamic DEB-based model of marine ecosystem size-spectrum including life history diversity
This paper presents a DEB-based mathematical model of the size-structured dynamics of marine communities which integrates individual, population and community levels. The model represents the transfer of energy in both time and structural volume (size) of an infinite number of interacting fish species characterized by their maximum structural volume and covering the entire range of possible lif...
متن کاملOptimal life-history schedule in a metapopulation with juvenile dispersal.
Previous models have predicted that when mortality increases with age, older individuals should invest more of their resources in reproduction and produce less dispersive offspring, as both their future reproductive value and their prospect of competing with their own sib decline. Those models assumed stable population sizes. We here study for the first time the evolution of age-specific reprod...
متن کاملSize-dependent mortality induces life-history changes mediated through population dynamical feedbacks.
The majority of taxa grow significantly during life history, which often leads to individuals of the same species having different ecological roles, depending on their size or life stage. One aspect of life history that changes during ontogeny is mortality. When individual growth and development are resource dependent, changes in mortality can affect the outcome of size-dependent intraspecific ...
