Chapter 9: A History of Spain and Portugal Isabel and Fernando did not aim at the establishment of absolute monarchy in Castile and Aragón, for this concept was not introduced until the Bourbon dynasty of the eighteenth century. Unlike some of his contemporaries, his ideal was not absolute monarchy but political compromise and the constitutional monarchist state of Aragón. It is important to understand that by the time of Fernando's death in 1516 only the monarchy, and not the confederate kingdoms of Castile and Aragón (to whom southern cis-Pyrenean Navarre had been added by Fernando on an autonomous constitutional basis in 1512), had been unified. libro.uca.edu /payne1/payne9.htm   (1007 words)

Sophie Curbo: Doktorsavhandling frÃ¥n Karolinska Institutet The prodrug of the biologically active araG, nelarabine, has proven highly efficient in particular in patients with T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. We have shown that araG can be incorporated into mtDNA but the mtDNA incorporation does not, however, cause the acute cytotoxicity of araG and we do presently not know to what extent it contributes to the cytotoxic action of the analog. Although the mechanism of action of araG is not fully understood, the accumulation of araG tripbosphates (araGTP) has been correlated to cytotoxicity both in vitro and in vivo. diss.kib.ki.se /2004/91-7349-869-6   (1007 words)

Chapter 14: The Kingdom of León-Castilla Under Alfonso VI Pedro of Aragón might nibble undisturbed at the northern extremities of Zaragoza but the mere suggestion that he was bent on its conquest must provoke a strong reaction from Alfonso. Pedro of Aragón was entirely aware that he had transgressed against the canons of the Leonese friendship and would have had no interest in actively pursuing or prolonging the estrangement. The progressive encroachment of Pedro of Aragón on the former taifa, however useful that might be for the moment, had reached the point where the final conquest of the taifa or some significant portion of it was imaginable at the very least. libro.uca.edu /alfonso6/alfonso14.htm   (1257 words)

Richard Egues Then, what the Orquesta Aragón did with the charanga and the cha cha was to introduce the cha cha in full through our arrangements, which were different from those of other orchestras. It was then that I met the Orquesta Aragón, and I started filling in for Loyola, who was the founder and flute player of the orchestra. He played well, but Rolando left in 1954 with the Orquesta América, and, as they say, left the Aragón high and dry. www.lafi.org /magazine/interviews/egues.html   (1021 words)

The Periphery of Francia: Spain, Britain, Eastern Europe, & Scandinavia Just as Sicily was about to be inherited by Aragón itself, Athens passed to the control of the Acciaiuoli family. When the Kingdoms of León, Castile, and Aragón, and then Navarra, came under common rule, the combination began to be called, unofficially but reasonably, "España." The battle cry of 16th century Spanish troops was "Santiago, España" (the former referring to the pilgrimage site of Santiago de Compostela in Galicia).

After Naples was occupied by the French, 1495-1496, John's son, Ferdinand II, ended up deposing his cousin and annexing the Kingdom to Aragón (1501). www.friesian.com /perifran.htm   (692 words)
