Although the women writers in question were best sellers at the time, they were still not accepted within the traditional literary categories. This paper intends to doubt the appropriateness of the term "amatory" as a description of women's writing at the time as it is not proper to entitle them as "amatory" fiction only for the reason that they adopt similar amatory plot and write fictions about love.展开更多

The authors examine the viewpoints of seven American elementary school teachers on visual literacy and its meanings in the context of the VTS method. Data collection was done using a semi-structured questionnaire, which was followed by theory-driven content analysis. The authors emphasize that when supporting holistic development in a teaching context, it is the interconnected nature of aesthetics, growth and the learner's learning which is more important than developing special skills, like visual literacy. In the teaching context visual literacy and language development should be acknowledged in pedagogy and research.展开更多

Epidemics on small worlds of tree-based networks are studied, and the epidemic threshold at which the outbreak of the epideIrlic occurs is calculated. Epidemiological processes are analyzed when the infection probability is larger than the percolation threshold. Although different epidemiological processes occur on the underlying tree topology, the number of infected nodes increases exponentially as the infection spreads. The uniform immunization procedure is conducted in the homogeneous small-world network. The infection still extends exponentially Mthough the immunization effectively reduces the prevalence speed.展开更多
