Collective Awareness and Lyrical Poetry: The Emergence of Creole Literary Culture in the Archipelago of São Tomé and Príncipe by Ewa A. Łukaszyk

“…The author of the present article postulates a radical enlargement of the chronological and cultural perspective, including the legacy of the Angolars (rebellious slaves) and their collective awareness in the genesis of the local literary tradition, in parity with such elements as the legacy of the Portuguese colonizers and free Creole social groups (Forros). It could be a way of overcoming the Eurocentric “chronopolitics” that remained valid also in the postcolonial studies, associating the decolonial processes, on the one hand, with the metropolis as a place where the decolonial thought took shape, and on the other, with the chronology, rhythms, and trends of its literary evolution. …”

Nucleosides 8 [18]: Ribosylation of Fused Quinazolines—Synthesis of New [1,2,4]Triazolo[5,1-b]- and [1,2,4]Triazino[3,2-b]quinazoline Nucleosides of Fluorescence Interest by Laila Mohamed Break, Mosselhi Abdelnabi Mosselhi, Nagi Mohamed Elshafai

“…[1,2,4]Triazolo[5,1-b]- and [1,2,4]triazino[3,2-b] quinazolines have been ribosylated by coupling with 1-O-acetyl-2,3,5-tri-O-benzoyl-β-D-ribofuranose and by using the silylation method, followed by debenzoylation by methanolic sodium methoxide to afford the corresponding free N-nucleosides. Nucleosides obtained have been identified by their spectral analysis. …”

Graphing, homotopy groups of spheres, and spaces of long links and knots by Robin Koytcheff

“…We show that, up to knotting, these account for all the homotopy groups in a range which depends on the dimensions of the source manifolds and target manifold and which roughly generalizes the triple-point-free range for isotopy classes. Just beyond this range, joining components sends both a parametrized long Borromean rings class and a Hopf fibration to a generator of the first nontrivial homotopy group of the space of long knots. …”
