Die Bedeutung der Ressource Wissen für die Unternehmensentwicklung ist heutzutage unumstritten. Um wettbewerbsfähig bleiben zu können, müssen Unternehmen die Erzeugung, Teilung und systematische Nutzung von Wissen fördern. Dabei stehen sowohl die individuelle Wissensbasis (und damit jeder Mitarbeiter) als auch die kollektive Wissensbasis (und damit das ganze Unternehmen) im Vordergrund. Der Faktor Kultur gewinnt in diesem Zusammenhang zunehmend an Bedeutung: Er beeinflusst alle drei Ebenen des Wissensmanagements - Mensch, Organisation und Technologie. Neben den Besonderheiten der Organisationskultur und der Kultur unterschiedlicher Mitarbeitergruppen sind in international agierenden Unternehmen auch die spezifischen Merkmale der jeweiligen Landeskultur zu berücksichtigen. Gemeinsam mit dem Lehrstuhl für Wirtschaftsinformatik und Electronic Government der Universität Potsdam hat acatech im Mai 2008 einen Workshop mit Vertretern aus Wirtschaft, Politik und Wissenschaft zum Umgang mit Wissen im interkulturellen Vergleich veranstaltet. Vor diesem Hintergrund entstand der acatech diskutiert-Band "Umgang mit Wissen im interkulturellen Vergleich - Beiträge aus Forschung und Unternehmenspraxis". Darin enthalten sind Beiträge, die u. a. danach fragen, welche wechselseitigen Beziehungen zwischen Technik und Kultur bestehen, inwieweit Experten- und Wissensnetzwerke als interkulturelles Instrument zum Umgang mit Wissen geeignet sind, wie Unternehmen ihre Mitarbeiter auf Auslandseinsätze und die Begegnung mit fremden Kulturen vorbereiten können und welche Rolle Kommunikation als Methode des Wissenstransfers spielt.

Liebe Leserin, lieber Leser, Castingshows schießen in letzter Zeit wie Pilze aus dem Boden. Ein Mangel an Bewerbern für diese Formate scheint nicht zu bestehen. Reich und berühmt sein wie Leonardo DiCaprio, der angeblich sogar mitten im brasilianischen Regenwald von einem Indianer erkannt wurde das ist das Ziel. Die erhoffte Prominenz ist bei Kandidaten dieser Shows oft Selbstzweck. Aber es gibt natürlich auch noch Menschen, die ihre Bekanntheit ihrer künstlerischen Passion, ihrem politischen Engagement oder ihren sportlichen Leistungen verdanken. Mitunter ist es diesen Menschen sogar eher lästig als angenehm, wenn sie im Rampenlicht stehen. Nach solchen Menschen aus dem Kreise unserer Ehemaligen haben wir gesucht und sind fündig geworden. Ihren Werdegang können Sie in unserem Titelthema nachlesen. Wie Prominenz und Persönlichkeit sich gegenseitig beeinflussen, warum Menschen überhaupt im Licht der Öffentlichkeit stehen wollen und wie man mit den negativen Seiten der eigenen Bekanntheit umgehen kann, erläutert Persönlichkeitspsychologe Prof. Dr. Franz Neyer in einem einführenden Artikel. Unter der Rubrik "alumni insight" lesen Sie beispielsweise, wie man in Russland eine Firma gründet oder vor welchen Herausforderungen ein Deutschlehrer in Usbekistan steht. Falls Sie sich gerade bewerben und noch Tipps zum Verfassen Ihres Lebenslaufs suchen, könnte ein Blick in die Rubrik "wegweiser" hilfreich sein.
Während über Max Webers Religionssoziologie ganze Bibliotheken geschrieben worden sind, gibt es zu seiner Rechtssoziologie – ungeachtet ihrer von Talcott Parsons herausgestellten Zentralität in Webers Werk – vergleichsweise wenige Veröffentlichungen. Insbesondere ist sein Verhältnis zur juristischen Methodenlehre nahezu unberücksichtigt geblieben, obwohl er als promovierter und habilitierter Jurist im weitesten Sinne von ihr ausgegangen ist. Max Webers Rechtssoziologie ist für die Rechtsdogmatik nicht zuletzt deshalb so interessant, weil Weber das Recht und die juristische Methode inwendig kannte und von daher deutend verstehen konnte.
Für die Neuauflage hat Jens Petersen alle Nachweise auf die Max-Weber-Gesamtausgabe umgestellt und nicht nur die in den vergangenen fünf Jahren erschienene Literatur zu seiner Rechtssoziologie berücksichtigt, sondern auch älteres Schrifttum.
Background
Epidemiological data indicate elevated psychosocial health risks for physicians, e.g., burnout, depression, marital disturbances, alcohol and substance abuse, and suicide. The purpose of this study was to identify psychosocial health resources and risk factors in profession-related behaviour and experience patterns of medical students and physicians that may serve as a basis for appropriate health promoting interventions.
Methods
The questionnaire -Related Behaviour and Experience "Work administered in cross-sectional surveys to students in the first (n = 475) and in the fifth year of studies (n = 355) in required courses at three German universities and to physicians in early professional life in the vicinity of these universities (n = 381).
Results
Scores reflecting a healthy behaviour pattern were less likely in physicians (16.7%) compared to 5th year (26.0%) and 1st year students (35.1%) while scores representing unambitious and resigned patterns were more common among physicians (43.4% vs. 24.4% vs. 41.0% and 27.3% vs. 17.2% vs. 23.3 respectively). Female and male responders differed in the domains professional commitment, resistance to stress and emotional well-being. Female physicians on average scored higher in the dimensions resignation tendencies, satisfaction with life and experience of social support, and lower in career ambition.
Conclusion
The results show distinct psychosocial stress patterns among medical students and physicians. Health promotion and prevention of psychosocial symptoms and impairments should be integrated as a required part of the medical curriculum and be considered an important issue during the further training of physicians.
Inositol phosphates (IPs) and their turnover products have been implicated to play important roles in stress signaling in eukaryotic cells. In higher plants genes encoding inositol polyphosphate kinases have been identified previously, but their physiological functions have not been fully resolved. Here we expressed Arabidopsis inositol polyphosphate 6-/3-kinase (AtIpk2 beta) in two heterologous systems, i.e. the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae and in tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum), and tested the effect on abiotic stress tolerance. Expression of AtIpk2 beta rescued the salt-, osmotic- and temperature-sensitive growth defects of a yeast mutant strain (arg82 Delta) that lacks inositol polyphosphate multikinase activity encoded by the ARG82/IPK2 gene. Transgenic tobacco plants constitutively expressing AtIpk2 beta under the control of the Cauliflower Mosaic Virus 35S promoter were generated and found to exhibit improved tolerance to diverse abiotic stresses when compared to wild type plants. Expression patterns of various stress responsive genes were enhanced, and the activities of anti-oxidative enzymes were elevated in transgenic plants, suggesting a possible involvement of AtIpk2 beta in plant stress responses.
We propose a network structure-based model for heterosis, and investigate it relying on metabolite profiles from Arabidopsis. A simple feed-forward two-layer network model (the Steinbuch matrix) is used in our conceptual approach. It allows for directly relating structural network properties with biological function. Interpreting heterosis as increased adaptability, our model predicts that the biological networks involved show increasing connectivity of regulatory interactions. A detailed analysis of metabolite profile data reveals that the increasing-connectivity prediction is true for graphical Gaussian models in our data from early development. This mirrors properties of observed heterotic Arabidopsis phenotypes. Furthermore, the model predicts a limit for increasing hybrid vigor with increasing heterozygosity—a known phenomenon in the literature.
QuantPrime
(2008)
Background
Medium- to large-scale expression profiling using quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) assays are becoming increasingly important in genomics research. A major bottleneck in experiment preparation is the design of specific primer pairs, where researchers have to make several informed choices, often outside their area of expertise. Using currently available primer design tools, several interactive decisions have to be made, resulting in lengthy design processes with varying qualities of the assays.
Results
Here we present QuantPrime, an intuitive and user-friendly, fully automated tool for primer pair design in small- to large-scale qPCR analyses. QuantPrime can be used online through the internet http://www.quantprime.de/ or on a local computer after download; it offers design and specificity checking with highly customizable parameters and is ready to use with many publicly available transcriptomes of important higher eukaryotic model organisms and plant crops (currently 295 species in total), while benefiting from exon-intron border and alternative splice variant information in available genome annotations. Experimental results with the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana, the crop Hordeum vulgare and the model green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii show success rates of designed primer pairs exceeding 96%.
Conclusion
QuantPrime constitutes a flexible, fully automated web application for reliable primer design for use in larger qPCR experiments, as proven by experimental data. The flexible framework is also open for simple use in other quantification applications, such as hydrolyzation probe design for qPCR and oligonucleotide probe design for quantitative in situ hybridization. Future suggestions made by users can be easily implemented, thus allowing QuantPrime to be developed into a broad-range platform for the design of RNA expression assays.
Thermal radiation processes
(2008)
We discuss the different physical processes that are important to understand the thermal X-ray emission and absorption spectra of the diffuse gas in clusters of galaxies and the warm-hot intergalactic medium. The ionisation balance, line and continuum emission and absorption properties are reviewed and several practical examples are given that illustrate the most important diagnostic features in the X-ray spectra.
Using ESTs for phylogenomics
(2008)
Background
While full genome sequences are still only available for a handful of taxa, large collections of partial gene sequences are available for many more. The alignment of partial gene sequences results in a multiple sequence alignment containing large gaps that are arranged in a staggered pattern. The consequences of this pattern of missing data on the accuracy of phylogenetic analysis are not well understood. We conducted a simulation study to determine the accuracy of phylogenetic trees obtained from gappy alignments using three commonly used phylogenetic reconstruction methods (Neighbor Joining, Maximum Parsimony, and Maximum Likelihood) and studied ways to improve the accuracy of trees obtained from such datasets.
Results
We found that the pattern of gappiness in multiple sequence alignments derived from partial gene sequences substantially compromised phylogenetic accuracy even in the absence of alignment error. The decline in accuracy was beyond what would be expected based on the amount of missing data. The decline was particularly dramatic for Neighbor Joining and Maximum Parsimony, where the majority of gappy alignments contained 25% to 40% incorrect quartets. To improve the accuracy of the trees obtained from a gappy multiple sequence alignment, we examined two approaches. In the first approach, alignment masking, potentially problematic columns and input sequences are excluded from from the dataset. Even in the absence of alignment error, masking improved phylogenetic accuracy up to 100-fold. However, masking retained, on average, only 83% of the input sequences. In the second approach, alignment subdivision, the missing data is statistically modelled in order to retain as many sequences as possible in the phylogenetic analysis. Subdivision resulted in more modest improvements to alignment accuracy, but succeeded in including almost all of the input sequences.
Conclusion
These results demonstrate that partial gene sequences and gappy multiple sequence alignments can pose a major problem for phylogenetic analysis. The concern will be greatest for high-throughput phylogenomic analyses, in which Neighbor Joining is often the preferred method due to its computational efficiency. Both approaches can be used to increase the accuracy of phylogenetic inference from a gappy alignment. The choice between the two approaches will depend upon how robust the application is to the loss of sequences from the input set, with alignment masking generally giving a much greater improvement in accuracy but at the cost of discarding a larger number of the input sequences.
Background: Haplotype inference based on unphased SNP markers is an important task in population genetics. Although there are different approaches to the inference of haplotypes in diploid species, the existing software is not suitable for inferring haplotypes from unphased SNP data in polyploid species, such as the cultivated potato (Solanum tuberosum). Potato species are tetraploid and highly heterozygous.
Results: Here we present the software SATlotyper which is able to handle polyploid and polyallelic data. SATlo-typer uses the Boolean satisfiability problem to formulate Haplotype Inference by Pure Parsimony. The software excludes existing haplotype inferences, thus allowing for calculation of alternative inferences. As it is not known which of the multiple haplotype inferences are best supported by the given unphased data set, we use a bootstrapping procedure that allows for scoring of alternative inferences. Finally, by means of the bootstrapping scores, it is possible to optimise the phased genotypes belonging to a given haplotype inference. The program is evaluated with simulated and experimental SNP data generated for heterozygous tetraploid populations of potato. We show that, instead of taking the first haplotype inference reported by the program, we can significantly improve the quality of the final result by applying additional methods that include scoring of the alternative haplotype inferences and genotype optimisation. For a sub-population of nineteen individuals, the predicted results computed by SATlotyper were directly compared with results obtained by experimental haplotype inference via sequencing of cloned amplicons. Prediction and experiment gave similar results regarding the inferred haplotypes and phased genotypes.
Conclusion: Our results suggest that Haplotype Inference by Pure Parsimony can be solved efficiently by the SAT approach, even for data sets of unphased SNP from heterozygous polyploids. SATlotyper is freeware and is distributed as a Java JAR file. The software can be downloaded from the webpage of the GABI Primary Database at http://www.gabipd.org/projects/satlotyper/. The application of SATlotyper will provide haplotype information, which can be used in haplotype association mapping studies of polyploid plants.
GeneFisher-P
(2008)
Background: PCR primer design is an everyday, but not trivial task requiring state-of-the-art software. We describe the popular tool GeneFisher and explain its recent restructuring using workflow techniques. We apply a service-oriented approach to model and implement GeneFisher-P, a process-based version of the GeneFisher web application, as a part of the Bio-jETI platform for service modeling and execution. We show how to introduce a flexible process layer to meet the growing demand for improved user-friendliness and flexibility.
Results: Within Bio-jETI, we model the process using the jABC framework, a mature model-driven, service-oriented process definition platform. We encapsulate remote legacy tools and integrate web services using jETI, an extension of the jABC for seamless integration of remote resources as basic services, ready to be used in the process. Some of the basic services used by GeneFisher are in fact already provided as individual web services at BiBiServ and can be directly accessed. Others are legacy programs, and are made available to Bio-jETI via the jETI technology.
The full power of service-based process orientation is required when more bioinformatics tools, available as web services or via jETI, lead to easy extensions or variations of the basic process. This concerns for instance variations of data retrieval or alignment tools as provided by the European Bioinformatics Institute (EBI).
Conclusions: The resulting service-and process-oriented GeneFisher-P demonstrates how basic services from heterogeneous sources can be easily orchestrated in the Bio-jETI platform and lead to a flexible family of specialized processes tailored to specific tasks.
The Warm-Hot Intergalactic Medium (WHIM) arises from shock-heated gas collapsing in large-scale filaments and probably harbours a substantial fraction of the baryons in the local Universe. Absorption-line measurements in the ultraviolet (UV) and in the X-ray band currently represent the best method to study the WHIM at low redshifts. We here describe the physical properties of the WHIM and the concepts behind WHIM absorption line measurements of Hi and high ions such as Ovi, Ovii, and Oviii in the far-ultraviolet and X-ray band. We review results of recent WHIM absorption line studies carried out with UV and X-ray satellites such as FUSE, HST, Chandra, and XMM-Newton and discuss their implications for our knowledge of the WHIM.
Background
Many animals live in environments where different types of predators pose a permanent threat and call for predator specific strategies. When foraging, animals have to balance the competing needs of food and safety in order to survive. While animals sometimes can choose between microhabitats that differ in their risk of predation, many habitats are uniform in their risk distribution. So far, little is known about adaptive antipredator behavior under uniform risk. We simulated two predator types, avian and mammalian, each representing a spatially uniform risk in the artificial resource landscapes. Voles served as experimental foragers.
Results
Animals were exposed to factorial combinations of weasel odour and ground cover to simulate avian and/or mammalian predation. We measured short and long term responses with video analysis and giving-up densities. The results show that previously experienced conditions cause delayed effects. After these effects ceased, the risks of both types of predation caused a reduction in food intake. Avian predation induced a concentration on a smaller number of feeding patches. While higher avian risk caused a delay in activity, the weasel odour shortened the latency until the voles started to be active.
Conclusion
We show that the voles differed in risk types and adjusted their feeding strategies accordingly. Responses to avian and mammalian risk differed both in strength and time scales. Uniformity of risk resulted in a concentration of foraging investment and lower foraging efficiency.
Background: An increasing number of studies demonstrate that genetic differentiation and speciation in the sea occur over much smaller spatial scales than previously appreciated given the wide distribution range of many morphologically defined coral reef invertebrate species and the presumed dispersal-enhancing qualities of ocean currents. However, knowledge about the processes that lead to population divergence and speciation is often lacking despite being essential for the understanding, conservation, and management of marine biodiversity. Sponges, a highly diverse, ecologically and economically important reef-invertebrate taxon, exhibit spatial trends in the Indo-West Pacific that are not universally reflected in other marine phyla. So far, however, processes generating those unexpected patterns are not understood.
Results: We unraveled the phylogeographic structure of the widespread Indo-Pacific coral reef sponge Leucetta chagosensis across its known geographic range using two nuclear markers: the rDNA internal transcribed spacers (ITS 1&2) and a fragment of the 28S gene, as well as the second intron of the ATP synthetase beta subunit-gene (ATPSb-iII). This enabled the detection of several deeply divergent clades congruent over both loci, one containing specimens from the Indian Ocean ( Red Sea and Maldives), another one from the Philippines, and two other large and substructured NW Pacific and SW Pacific clades with an area of overlap in the Great Barrier Reef/Coral Sea. Reciprocally monophyletic populations were observed from the Philippines, Red Sea, Maldives, Japan, Samoa, and Polynesia, demonstrating long-standing isolation. Populations along the South Equatorial Current in the south-western Pacific showed isolation-by-distance effects. Overall, the results pointed towards stepping-stone dispersal with some putative long-distance exchange, consistent with expectations from low dispersal capabilities.
Conclusion: We argue that both founder and vicariance events during the late Pliocene and Pleistocene were responsible to varying degrees for generating the deep phylogeographic structure. This structure was perpetuated largely as a result of the life history of L. chagosensis, resulting in high levels of regional isolation. Reciprocally monophyletic populations constitute putative sibling ( cryptic) species, while population para- and polyphyly may indicate incipient speciation processes. The genetic diversity and biodiversity of tropical Indo-Pacific sponges appears to be substantially underestimated since the high level of genetic divergence is not necessarily manifested at the morphological level.
We describe an approach to modeling biological networks by action languages via answer set programming. To this end, we propose an action language for modeling biological networks, building on previous work by Baral et al. We introduce its syntax and semantics along with a translation into answer set programming, an efficient Boolean Constraint Programming Paradigm. Finally, we describe one of its applications, namely, the sulfur starvation response-pathway of the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana and sketch the functionality of our system and its usage.
Background
Serotonin induces fluid secretion from Calliphora salivary glands by the parallel activation of the InsP3/Ca2+ and cAMP signaling pathways. We investigated whether cAMP affects 5-HT-induced Ca2+ signaling and InsP3-induced Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER).
Results
Increasing intracellular cAMP level by bath application of forskolin, IBMX or cAMP in the continuous presence of threshold 5-HT concentrations converted oscillatory [Ca2+]i changes into a sustained increase. Intraluminal Ca2+ measurements in the ER of ß-escin-permeabilized glands with mag-fura-2 revealed that cAMP augmented InsP3-induced Ca2+ release in a concentration-dependent manner. This indicated that cAMP sensitized the InsP3 receptor Ca2+ channel for InsP3. By using cAMP analogs that activated either protein kinase A (PKA) or Epac and the application of PKA-inhibitors, we found that cAMP-induced augmentation of InsP3-induced Ca2+ release was mediated by PKA not by Epac. Recordings of the transepithelial potential of the glands suggested that cAMP sensitized the InsP3/Ca2+ signaling pathway for 5-HT, because IBMX potentiated Ca2+-dependent Cl- transport activated by a threshold 5-HT concentration.
Conclusion
This report shows, for the first time for an insect system, that cAMP can potentiate InsP3-induced Ca2+ release from the ER in a PKA-dependent manner, and that this crosstalk between cAMP and InsP3/Ca2+ signaling pathways enhances transepithelial electrolyte transport.
Background: For omics experiments, detailed characterisation of experimental material with respect to its genetic features, its cultivation history and its treatment history is a requirement for analyses by bioinformatics tools and for publication needs. Furthermore, meta-analysis of several experiments in systems biology based approaches make it necessary to store this information in a standardised manner, preferentially in relational databases. In the Golm Plant Database System, we devised a data management system based on a classical Laboratory Information Management System combined with web-based user interfaces for data entry and retrieval to collect this information in an academic environment.
Results: The database system contains modules representing the genetic features of the germplasm, the experimental conditions and the sampling details. In the germplasm module, genetically identical lines of biological material are generated by defined workflows, starting with the import workflow, followed by further workflows like genetic modification (transformation), vegetative or sexual reproduction. The latter workflows link lines and thus create pedigrees. For experiments, plant objects are generated from plant lines and united in so-called cultures, to which the cultivation conditions are linked. Materials and methods for each cultivation step are stored in a separate ACCESS database of the plant cultivation unit. For all cultures and thus every plant object, each cultivation site and the culture's arrival time at a site are logged by a barcode-scanner based system. Thus, for each plant object, all site-related parameters, e. g. automatically logged climate data, are available. These life history data and genetic information for the plant objects are linked to analytical results by the sampling module, which links sample components to plant object identifiers. This workflow uses controlled vocabulary for organs and treatments. Unique names generated by the system and barcode labels facilitate identification and management of the material. Web pages are provided as user interfaces to facilitate maintaining the system in an environment with many desktop computers and a rapidly changing user community. Web based search tools are the basis for joint use of the material by all researchers of the institute.
Conclusion: The Golm Plant Database system, which is based on a relational database, collects the genetic and environmental information on plant material during its production or experimental use at the Max-Planck-Institute of Molecular Plant Physiology. It thus provides information according to the MIAME standard for the component 'Sample' in a highly standardised format. The Plant Database system thus facilitates collaborative work and allows efficient queries in data analysis for systems biology research.
Bio-jETI
(2008)
Background: With Bio-jETI, we introduce a service platform for interdisciplinary work on biological application domains and illustrate its use in a concrete application concerning statistical data processing in R and xcms for an LC/MS analysis of FAAH gene knockout.
Methods: Bio-jETI uses the jABC environment for service-oriented modeling and design as a graphical process modeling tool and the jETI service integration technology for remote tool execution.
Conclusions: As a service definition and provisioning platform, Bio-jETI has the potential to become a core technology in interdisciplinary service orchestration and technology transfer. Domain experts, like biologists not trained in computer science, directly define complex service orchestrations as process models and use efficient and complex bioinformatics tools in a simple and intuitive way.
Schülerinnen und Schüler verfügen über verschiedene Detailkenntnisse zur Technik und zu Technologien im Haushalt und im Freizeitbereich. Deshalb liegt es nahe, Technik am Beispiel der Haushaltstechnik zu analysieren und ein Verständnis für technische Systeme zu entwickeln (Orig.). Der Beitrag beinhaltet die didaktischen Grundlagen (Organstrukturmodell und 9-Felder-Matrix) für eine Unterrichtsgestaltung, die mit Hilfe des im Einhefter von Unterricht - Arbeit + Technik vorhandenen Unterrichtsmaterials vorgenommen werden kann. Die Materialien sollen die Schülerinnen und Schüler dazu befähigen, technische Sachsysteme mittels des Organstrukturmodells in ihren Aufbau- und Funktionsbeziehungen zu beschreiben und sie zu klassifizieren (Arbeitsgegenstände / technologische Grundvorgänge). Des weiteren können Stoff-, Energie- und Informationsflüsse anhand technischer Sachsysteme beschrieben werden (nach Orig.).
A Co(II)-imidazolate-4-amide-5-imidate based MOF, IFP-5, is synthesized by using an imidazolate anion-based novel ionic liquid as a linker precursor under solvothermal conditions. IFP-5 shows significant amounts of gas (N2, CO2, CH4 and H2) uptake capacities. IFP-5 exhibits an independent high spin Co(II) centre and antiferromagnetic coupling.
A rare example of in situ linker generation with the formation of soft porous Zn- and Co-MOFs (IFP-9 and -10, respectively) is reported. The flexible ethoxy groups of IFP-9 and -10 protrude into the 1D hexagonal channels. The gas- sorption behavior of both materials for H2, CO2 and CH4 showed wide hysteretic isotherms, typical for MOFs having a flexible substituent which can give rise to a gate effect.
La Enciclopedia Metódica francesa (1782-1832) que se debe a la iniciativa del editor Panckoucke fue una de las grandes obras que contribuyeron a la difusión del saber moderno en España. No se olvidan aquí las críticas que fueron adresadas a esta obra y a sus protagonistas que daron un sentido muy pejorativo a las palabras enciclopedismo y enciclopedistas. Pero el contenido de la Enciclopedia Metódica era diferente de la Grande Enciclopedia francesa, publicada por Diderot y d'Alembert. Se recoja lo mejor de la diderotiana, corregida, actualizada, organizada por materias, ampliada con nuevos artículos y suavizada en su heterodoxia (Checa Beltrán 1999: 177, cf. también Donato 1992, Jalón 1997). Se había cortado la inquietud intelectual de la Enciclopedia que se puede considear revolucionaria, quedando una obra que reune todos los conocimientos sobre muchas áreas del saber. Panckoucke había conseguido en España un número respetable de suscritores, y el editor español Sancha decidió hacerle competencia publicando una traducción de la obra. Este proyecto editorial respondía perfectamente a las exigencias de los lectores. Es por esta razón, meramente económica y para facilitar el acceso a ella que emprendieron una traducción en España, pero no del diccionario enciclopédico en su orden alfabético sino de la Enciclopedia Metódica, ordenada según disciplinas y campos de los conocimientos. Mientras que en algunos de ellos (por ejemplo el Arte Militar y la Geografía Moderna) la traducción resultó ser un gran éxito, los esfuerzos fueron menos provechosos en sectores no ligados a la economía. El escolapio Luis Mínguez de San Fernando (1745-1808) del Orden de Escuelas Pías empezó la traducción de la Enciclopedia Metódica. Diccionario de Gramática y literatura, pero su muerte puso fin a esta empresa que no había llegado al fin de la letra A. Parece poco importante el estudio de un diccionario que termina con la palabra Andromaca, pero el primer tomo, aparecido en 1788, ya cuenta con 622 páginas y un prólogo que explica los principios del autor. Pretende ser lo más exhaustivo posible, tanto en el ámbito de la gramática, que abarcará "la gramática general y particular de las lenguas" (1788: VI) como en la literatura, donde se tratará de poética, retórica, crítica literaria, historia de la poesía y de la elocuencia. La versión castellana duplica en páginas a la francesa debido a la inclusión de un gran número de artículos nuevos, dedicados mayormente a autores y obras clásicas, a palabras sinónimas y debido a la "adiciones propias de nuestra literatura". Esas adiciones pertenecen a obras de teóricos españoles o son del propio traductor, complementan o corrigen la doctrina del texto francés (cf. Checa Beltrán 1999). Es una traducción que se esfuerza a integrar elementos de la discusión lingueística española en el texto de la traducción, añadiendo aumentos y discutiendo de una manera metadescriptiva la terminología utilizada.

The term "analysis" came into use in Spanish school grammars during the first half of the nineteenth century. Following a process of simplification still evident today, the teaching of this concept in Spain distinguished between logical analysis and grammatical analysis, i.e. the separation or the division of sentences into clauses and of clauses into their immediate constituents and, on the other hand, the study of the parts of speech. A close perusal of various grammars, however, reveals that analysis is a concept used with different meanings, which minimises the distinction between logic and grammar. The term "analysis" includes elements of scholastic grammar and also aspects of the general grammar of the Port Royal School, which was introduced in Spain rather late, as well as ideological features associated with the impact of French ideas in Spain in the early nineteenth century. This paper shall explore the different concepts of "analysis" in Elementos de gramática c astellana by Juan Manuel Calleja, Análisis lógica y gramatical de la lengua espanola by Juan Calderón and Gramática de la lengua castellana destinada al uso de los americanos by Andrés Bello.
