However, normal applications of Girard's work can be problematic with this text, because reading mimetic conflict in Beowulf as focused on a single object of desire does not adequately explain the relationships between Grendel and his enemies. Normal applications of acquisitive mimesis are limited in this poem, because agent and model do not often have the same desires, and thus this paper proposes a corollary to Girard's theories: If we allow for two objects of desire in the rivalry--primary and secondary desires--we can account for the motivations of all mimetic rivals and acquisitive mimesis has a richer and more sustained application to this poem展开更多

The structure of Hg<sup>2+</sup> complex, [Hg(L<sup>1</sup>)Cl]Cl·5H<sub>2</sub>O, is elucidated using elemental analyses, spectral (IR, UV-visible, 1H-NMR and mass) and TGA measurements. IR spectrum suggests that L<sup>1</sup> behaves in a bidentate manner through the azomethine groups. The molecular modeling of L<sup>1</sup> and its Hg<sup>2+</sup> complex has been investigated. The bond lengths, bond angles, HOMO and LUMO have been calculated. The thermal behavior and kinetic parameters are determined using Coats-Redfern method. The use of L<sup>1</sup> for preconcentration and separation via flotation of Hg<sup>2+</sup> complex and determination using cold vapor atomic spectrometry (CVAAS) is described. The effects on the percentage of recovered Hg<sup>2+</sup> by pH of sample solutions, oleic acid (HOL) concentration, Hg<sup>2+</sup> and L<sup>1</sup> concentrations are studied in details. The method is applied for the determination of the total Hg<sup>2+</sup> (mg·mL<sup>-1</sup>) in natural water samples.展开更多
