Germany turning-point

Again, as in Germany, the changing political situation led to a turning point in his life. Dollfuss was assassinated in 1934, and the Nazis pushed in earnest for control. Mrs. Mark saw clearly what these events harbingered, but the effervescent, optimistic Mark did not. He continued his diverse activities undaunted, until late 1937. Finally, at the urging of Mrs. [Pg.78]

In the Dora-Mittelbau camp, especially feared for its hard working conditions and administered as an auxiliary camp of Buchenwald until 1944, but then promoted to the rank of a concentration camp in its own right, inmates in underground factories manufactured the rockets by means of which Germany still hoped to bring about a turning point in the war. [Pg.290]

One approach would equate modern with contemporary , and thus focus on the novel in the here-and-now, in our era - whether that era be relatively narrowly defined as the period since the Wende (turning-point) of German unification in 1989-90, or more broadly as the six decades following the collapse of Nazi Germany at the end of the Second World War. Both 1945 and 1989 mark important cultural as well as socio-political breaks in the continuum of German history, and there exists a considerable body of scholarly literature devoted to the development of the novel in these periods - as well as in the decades into which they are subdivided. To anchor ourselves purely in the now would however make for a viewpoint that is inherently unstable, as well as lacking a longer-term historical perspective, and a Companion constructed around it would fairly soon be overtaken by events. [Pg.1]

Other aspects of the traditional view of the electron continue to come into question. Experiments carried out in Germany this year suggest that the electron may not be fundamental after all. Instead, it may possess a substructure consisting of lepto quarks. One cannot help but speculate whether there may come a point when the electron itself, which has been the cause of so many celebrations this year, might also turn out to be not so real. [Pg.42]

The existence of this element was later confirmed in Germany by K. Starke (54) and by F. Strassmann and O. Hahn (55). At this point in his work, however, McMillan left Berkeley to undertake war research on radar. He turned the investigation of the new element over to his colleague, Glenn T. Seaborg (51). [Pg.869]

The downside of breeder reactors is their enormous complexity. The United States gave up on breeders more than a decade ago, and only France and Germany are still investing in them. Officials in these countries point out that supplies of naturally occurring uranium-235 are limited. At present rates of consumption, all natural sources of uranium-235 may be depleted within a century. If countries then decide to turn to breeder reactors, they may well find themselves digging up the radioactive wastes they once buried. [Pg.129]

From the point of view of the hetero-atom itself, there are two more known below selenium in the Periodic Table. Each deserves some special comment. The next atom, directly below selenium, is tellurium. It is more metallic, and its compounds have a worse smell yet. I heard a story about a German chemist, many years ago, who was carrying a vial of dibutyl telluride in his pocket in a passenger coach from here to there in Germany, back at about the turn of the century. It fell to the floor and broke. No one could remain in the car, and no amount of decontamination could effectively make the smell tolerable. Scratch one railway coach. But the compound, 2C-TE, would be readily makeable. Dimethyl ditelluride is a known thing. [Pg.287]

The Dazzle Section at Burlington House finally ceased operations on 31 January 1919. The Section s goals had been realised long before when, from early 1918, the fortunes of the war at sea had finally turned in the Allies favour. At last it had been possible to strengthen the fighting units on the battlefields of Europe to the point where Germany... [Pg.118]
