The central concern of Erich Auerbach's impressive volume called Mimesis is to describe the shift from a classic theory of imitation ( based upon a recognition of levels of truth ) to a Christian theory of imitation in which the levels are dissolved.

Of the longer pieces of the volume none is so memorable as `` Nameless And Immortal '', which at once took rank among the finest poems ever written in the Swedish language.

The short poems grouped at the end of the volume as `` Thoughts in Loneliness '' is, as Professor Book indicated, in sharp contrast with the others.

It is different with his volume The Swedes And Their Chieftains ( Svenskarna och deras Hovdingar ), a history intended for the general reader and particularly suited for high school students.

Undoubtedly, however, the significance of the volume is greater than the foregoing paragraphs suggest.

Godfrey Burr, the vicar of Rushall in Staffordshire, the news evidently helped to deepen his discouragement over the failure of his hopes for a new volume of verse.

Displacement is sometimes referred to as `` swept volume ''.

Actually, the engine displacement formula is the standard formula for computing the volume of a cylinder of any type with an added factor that represents the number of cylinders in the engine.

The cross-sectional area of the cylinders is determined and then the volume of the individual cylinders is computed by multiplying the area by the stroke length, which is the equivalent of the length of the cylinders.

A cylinder's compression ratio is computed by comparing the cylinder's volume, or its displacement, with the total volume of the cylinder and its combustion chamber.

Cylinder volume is determined in exactly the same manner as for the displacement formula: Af.

To measure the volume of one of the combustion chambers in the cylinder head, install the valves and spark plug in the chamber and support the head so that its gasket surface is level.

The volume of the opening is added to the combustion chamber volume.

Another thing that must be taken into consideration is the volume of the area between the top of the piston and the top of the cylinder block when the piston is in top dead center position.

The total of these three volumes is the `` final combustion chamber volume ''.

The only way to determine the final combustion chamber volume when such pistons are used is by measuring it with liquid while the cylinder head is bolted to the cylinder block and the piston is in top dead center position.

When more electrons are added to a single atom, the additional electrons tend to more evenly fill in a volume of space around the nucleus so that the resulting collection ( sometimes termed the atom ’ s “ electron cloud ” ) tends toward a generally spherical zone of probability describing where the atom ’ s electrons will be found.

A titration curve is a curve in the plane whose x-coordinate is the volume of titrant added since the beginning of the titration, and whose y-coordinate is the concentration of the analyte at the corresponding stage of the titration ( in an acid-base titration, the y-coordinate is usually the pH of the solution ).

Some fifteen months later he added a private printing-press to his multifarious occupations and started upon the first volume issued from the Kelmscott Press.

The printing of Domesday, in " record type ", was begun by the government in 1773, and the book was published, in two volumes, in 1783 ; in 1811, a volume of indexes was added, and in 1816 a supplementary volume, separately indexed, containing

In the early Christian experience the New Testament was added to the whole Jewish Tanakh, which after Jerome's translation tended more and more to be bound up as a single volume, and was accepted as a unified locus of authority: " the Book.

This smallness of their size is such that the total volume of the individual gas molecules added up is negligible compared to the volume of the smallest open ball containing all the molecules.

It was the first edition of Britannica to be issued with a comprehensive index volume in which was added a categorical index, where like topics were listed.

The piston is momentarily at rest at TDC and heat is added to the working fluid at constant volume from an external heat source which is brought into contact with the cylinder head.

In 1807 he had published in a sumptuous volume the Columbiad, an extended edition of his Vision of Columbus, more pompous even than the original ; but, though it added to his reputation in some quarters, on the whole it was not well received, and it has subsequently been much ridiculed.

To calculate how much more fuel had to be added, the crew needed to convert the quantity in the tanks to a weight, subtract that figure from 22, 300 and convert the result back into a volume.

A scene graph can easily be adapted to include / become a BVH — if each node has a volume associated or there is a purpose-built ' bound node ' added in at convenient location in the hierarchy.

Malebranche replied in a short preface added to that second volume, and then, in the 1678 third edition, he added 50 % to the already considerable size of the book with a sequence of ( eventually ) seventeen Elucidations.

In the following year he published the first volume of his famous work Essai sur la métaphysique d ' Aristote, to which in 1846 he added a supplementary volume.

In the lower center rack an 8-channel recorder indicates the percentage of carbon dioxide and nitrogen from the upper and lower lobes of one lung, the total volume of inhalation per breath, the flow of air from both lobes, and the pressure of the two lobes with respect to each other.

From the volume standpoint, the total market represented by the sign industry is impressive.

If Af is the change per unit volume in Gibbs function caused by the shear field at constant P and T, and **yr is the density of the fluid, then the total potential energy of the system above the reference height is Af.

The total volume of the system above the reference height is Af, and H can be eliminated to obtain an equation for the total potential energy of the system in terms of H.

During the first 11 months of 2006, the volume of Armenia ’ s trade with Russia was $ 376. 8 million or 13. 2 percent of the total commercial exchange.

" Continuous use of neuroleptics has been shown to decrease the total brain volume by 10 % in macaque monkeys.

The Baltic Sea's salinity is much lower than that of ocean water ( which averages 35 ‰), as a result of abundant freshwater runoff from the surrounding land, combined with the shallowness of the sea itself ; indeed, runoff contributes roughly one-fortieth its total volume per year, as the volume of the basin is about 21, 000 km³ and yearly runoff is about 500 km³.

In chemistry, concentration is defined as the abundance of a constituent divided by the total volume of a mixture.

The density at any point of a homogeneous object equals its total mass divided by its total volume.

A mole of nitroglycerin thus produces a total of 7. 25 moles of gas, the volume of which at 0 ° C and atmospheric pressure would be 7. 25 × 22. 4 = 162. 4 liters.
