Dimensionen des Erotischen

Das Hauptkapitel dieser Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit einer Analyse des Spielfilms LADY CHATTERLEY der französischen Drehbuchautorin und Regisseurin Pascale Ferran. Da es sich bei diesem Kinofilm um eine filmische Adaption von D. H. Lawrences zweiter Lady-Chatterley-Vorlage John Thomas and Lady Jane handelt, ist der Genre-Aspekt der Literatur-verfilmung auf verschiedenen Ebenen ein weiterer Gegenstand einer eingehenden Untersu-chung. Zudem werden andere Genre-Kategorien definiert und erläutert. Der englische Schriftsteller Lawrence wird aus verschiedenen Epochen, Blickwinkeln und Lesarten feminis-tischer Literaturkritik des vergangenen 20. Jahrhunderts betrachtet. Darüber hinaus und im Zuge einer genrespezifischen Interpretation wird der im Jahre 2006 angelaufene Film LADY CHATTERLEY mit den bisherigen Verfilmungen des Lady-Chatterley-Stoffes verglichen. Diese drei Beispiele sind: L’AMANT DE LADY CHATTERLEY (1955) von Mark Allégret, LA-DY CHATTERLEY’S LOVER (1981) von Just Jaeckin und LADY CHATTERLEY (1993) von Ken Russell.The main subject of this thesis is an analysis of the feature film LADY CHATTERLEY by the French female writer and director Pascale Ferran. Since the film is an adaptation of the second Lady-Chatterley-novel John Thomas and Lady Jane by D. H. Lawrence, another sub-ject of discussion are the levels and definitions of the literary adaptation as a film genre itself, as well as other genre definitions located within the film. The English writer Lawrence will be looked at from a point of view through decades, perspectives and readings of the past twen-tieth century feminist literary criticism. Furthermore this analytic approach will allow an inter-pretation of the 2006 issued film LADY CHATTERLEY based on three previous adaptations of Lawrence’s Lady-Chatterley-novels. These three mentioned examples are: Mark Allégret’s film L’AMANT DE LADY CHATTERLEY (1955), Just Jaeckin’s film LADY CHATTERLEY’S LOVER (1981) and Ken Russell’s miniseries LADY CHATTERLEY (1993)

Use of seed priming to improve Cd accumulation and tolerance in Silene sendtneri, novel Cd hyper-accumulator

Changes in the environment as a result of industrialisation and urbanisation impact negatively on plant growth and crop production. Cadmium (Cd) is one of the most dangerous metals that enters the food chain, with toxic effects on plants and human health. This study evaluated the potential of Silene sendtneri as a novel hyperaccumulator and the role of seed priming in tolerance and accumulation rate of Cd. The effect of different priming agents on germination performance, root growth, seedling development, metal uptake and accumulation, antioxidant defences including enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants has been assessed. Seed priming using silicic acid, proline alone or in combination with salicylic acidenhanced germination, seedling development, and root growth under Cd stress. The same priming treatments induced an increase of water content in shoots and roots when plants were exposed to Cd. The enzymatic antioxidant response was specific for the priming agent used. An increase in ferulic acid and rutin in shoots was related to the increase of Cd concentration in the medium. The concentration of malic and oxalic acid increased significantly in shoots of plants grown on high Cd concentrations compared to low Cd concentrations. Silene sendtneri can accumulate significant levels of Cd with enhanced accumulation rate and tolerance when seeds are primed. The best results are obtained by seed priming using 1% silicic acid, proline and salicylic acid
