heterogeneity within the orientalist discourse: representation of the orient in womens travelogues and mens paintings
from 1950s onward, new theories and critical approaches burgeoned across humanities. these theories were context-oriented; as a result, the analysis of discursive practices gained significance. thus, social, political, historical and cultural discourses that have been hitherto marginalized and considered inferior to literary texts, were introduced as important texts to be analyzed by critics. o...
The Cosmogony of Super-Massive Black Holes
• The luminosities of the quasars with the largest redshifts indicate that central BH masses of > 10 M⊙ were already present when the Universe was less than 10 years old (Barth et al. 2003). These masses are lower limits as they are based on the assumption that the BHs accrete at their Eddington limit. There is no indication that the (majority of the) sample of highest-redshift-quasar luminosit...
متن کاملAssembly Pathways and the Growth of Massive Early-Type Galaxies
Based on data from the SAGES Legacy Unifying Globulars and GalaxieS (SLUGGS) survey, I present results on the assembly pathways, dark matter content and halo growth of massive early-type galaxies. Using galaxy starlight information we find that such galaxies had an early dissipative phase followed by a second phase of halo growth from largely minor mergers (and in rare cases major mergers). Thu...
متن کاملThe Assembly History of Massive Galaxies: What Do We Know?
Understanding the formation history of massive galaxies is one of most popular and longstanding problems in astronomy, with observations and theory addressing how and when these systems assembled. Since the most massive galaxies in today’s universe, with M∗ > 10 11 M⊙ , are nearly all elliptical with uniform old stellar populations, we must probe higher redshifts to discover their full origins....
