Conversions to Catholicism among Fin de Siècle Writers: A Spiritual and Literary Genealogy by Claire Masurel-Murray

“…The Tractarian theologian’s religion may at first sight have little in common with the aesthetic religion of the fin de siècle poets, and yet his view of the act of faith as founded on the senses, the emotions and the imagination was certainly an element that they were keen to appropriate, and his focus on the human conscience as the centre of religious experience is implicitly present in the solitary and highly subjective piety that emerges in the works of Gray, Johnson and Dowson.…”

‘Savages’ and Spiritual Engines: Feeling the Machine in H. G. Wells’s Time Machine and ‘Lord of the Dynamos’ by Tamara Ketabgian

A Role for Folate in Microbiome-Linked Control of Autoimmunity by Christine Mölzer, Heather M. Wilson, Lucia Kuffova, John V. Forrester

“…Here, we review the role of folate in AD/AID with some emphasis on sight-threatening autoimmune uveitis. Since folate is required for the generation and maintenance of Treg, we propose that one mechanism for microbiome-based control of AD/AID is via folate-dependent induction of GI tract Treg, particularly colonic Treg, via anergic T cells (Tan). …”
