“…The confluence between emancipation and transnationalism in Douglass's speeches, essays, autobiographies, and quoted lines could accordingly be construed in a variety of ways. We could read his writings about 1848 as part of a transatlantic discourse that, as Paul Giles (2002), Elisa Tamarkin (2008), and Leonard Tennenhouse (2007) have elegantly demonstrated, yoked US writing to British cultural production and authority prior to the Civil War. Alternatively, we could turn to scholarship on the African diaspora and tie Douglass's reading of 1848 to a "black Atlantic" that extends, rhizomatically, through Europe, Africa, and the Americas.…”

“…(1) This stunning "Third-Worlding of a superpower," as Dimock phrases it, forces us to radically rethink the nation as a spatiotemporal formation, one that is necessarily bound up with the longue durée of planetary development. Considered in this context, the conceptual impasse I have been discussing can be framed as a timely and significant response to the man-made traumas of our recent history: against the limited and partial commonality imagined by the nation-state, scholars' revisionary transnationalism-from Peter Linebaugh and Marcus Rediker's (2012) sweeping history of the Atlantic proletariat to Elisa Tamarkin's (2008) exquisite reading of American anglophilia-imagines a shared history and capacity for collectivity that is all the more important in a period of planetary destruction.…”

When revolutions rocked Europe in 1848, Frederick Douglass responded almost immediately by framing these movements across the Atlantic in global terms. As the rebellions against monarchy spread from Paris to Prague, Douglass reprinted poems by Alphonse de Lamartine in his abolitionist newspaper, the North Star; wrote essays in which he tied class strife in the Old World to the contest over slavery in the New; and delivered lectures in which he heralded this upheaval as part of an international uprising against tyrants. "France," he declared, "is not alone"; it is "in direct communication with all the great cities" from London to Washington and Rome, "and the influence of her example is everywhere powerful." What the abdication of Louis Philippe, the dethroning of Metternich, and the Magyar uprising under Lajos Kossuth portended, according to Douglass's 1848 essay "The Revolution of 1848" (1999b, 106-7), was the eruption of a revolutionary zeitgeist throughout the Atlantic world, a "Spirit of Liberty" that, as he put it, united "the oppressed classes" and caused "thrones to crumble." Yet for Douglass the revolts of 1848 manifested not simply as political events but as a chronopolitical phenomenon. In Europe's upheaval, he discerned nothing less than a universal freedom drive that was transhistorical as well as transnational. As he insisted in his speeches, essays, and editorials, the sudden and seemingly miraculous overthrowing of kings in France, Italy, and Hungary was more or less coextensive with the American Revolution of 1776, with the British abolition of slavery in 1833, and with past and future slave rebellions throughout the Western hemisphere. What Douglass took from these revolutions Frederick Douglass in 1848 449 connection that cut across the nation's fictive histories, and these cosmopolitan temporalities, we shall find, pose much broader questions about the idea of "context" in US literary history.But to arrive at these theoretical considerations, we must first begin with the momentous upheavals of 1848.

“…Changes in reproductive hormones are also registered under the influence of photoperiod. Long days allow the reproductive tract to be maintained in the presence of high serum levels of FSH, LH, prolactin, and testosterone, while reduced levels of these hormones are Correspondence: Juan B. Balbontin, Department of Cell Biology and Genetics, Faculty of Medicine, University of Chile, Casilla 70061, Santiago 7, Chile. registered under the influence of short days, in combination with the inhibitory effect on the reproductive tract (Berndston & Desjardins, 1974;Reiter, 1975;Tamarkin et al, 1976). Attempts for studying the role that gonadotropins and prolactin play in the photoperiod-derived gonadal regression in the golden hamster have included treatments of restitution with these hormones during exposure to short days.…”

S u m m a r y . The effect of flutamide (FLU) administered during 6 weeks at doses of 50 or 100 mg kg-' body weight, on various reproductive characteristics of sexually active male golden hamsters was studied. The weight of seminal vesicles and epididymides showed a dose dependent inhibition with FLU, while testicular weight exhibited a biphasic response, its value being increased by 20% at lower FLU doses and reduced by 15% at higher FLU doses. An elevation of testicular and epididymal androgen-binding protein (ABP) content and also of testicular testosterone content was observed with both doses of FLU. Serum levels of LH and testosterone exhibited a four-fold increase, at both doses of FLU, while FSH serum level was elevated depending on the dose of FLU used. Results suggest that in the golden hamster the maintenance of the weight of testes and accessory organs depends mainly on androgenic stimulation, while production and transport of ABP is probably regulated by gonadotropins.
