In that first paper dealing with the role of atmospheric oxygen in vinification he sought to establish that the aging of wine resulted from the slow penetration of atmospheric oxygen through the porous wook casks into which new wine was decanted. By virtue of this slow oxidation he claimed new wine grows less harsh and acid to the taste as it becomes clearer and lighter from the to the taste as it becomes clearer and lighter from the precipation of dark coloring matters. In his second paper January 1864 Pasteur examined the "alterations" or "diseases of wine especially wine from the Jura his native department. Reviewing the familiar disease of "turned" "acid" "ropy" or "oily " wine he associated each with a microscopic organism. He summarized the results of his first two papers by nothing that "wine which is proudced by a cellular vegetation acting as a ferment namely yeast is altered only by the influence of other vegetations of the same order; and once removed from the effects of their parasitism it is made or matured principally by the action of atmospheric oxygen penetrating slowly through the staves of the casks."DSB. </em> unknown

1958203391958. Meaker Marijane writing as Vin Packer and Ann Aldrich; Torres Tereska; Marchal Lucie; Christian Paula. Lesbian pulp novels 1958-1961. These works document lesbian representation in midcentury pulp fiction through novels written by women a distinct subset of the genre that offered alternative portrayals of same-sex relationships during a period of widespread censorship and medicalization of homosexuality. Issued within commercial paperback publishing these texts present narratives centered on identity emotional experience and interpersonal relationships providing evidence of how women authors approached lesbian subject matter with greater emphasis on character interiority and in some cases less punitive narrative outcomes. The material supports research into LGBTQ literary history gender and authorship and the development of lesbian-focused narratives in mid-twentieth-century print culture.<br /> <br /> Five mass market paperback volumes published between 1958 and 1961 each approximately 200 pages and measuring about 4.75 x 7 inches. 1 Packer Vin Marijane Meaker. The Evil Friendship. Greenwich Conn: Fawcett Publications 1958. First printing. Follows two teenage girls exploring romantic attachment marketed as "Vin Packer's latest study of the tragedy of forbidden love." 2 Torres Tereska. The Dangerous Games. Greenwich Conn: Fawcett Publications 1961. Second printing. Centers on a married woman in Paris entering a polyamorous relationship and recognizing same-sex desire promoted as "The unorthodox love experiences of a young French woman." 3 Marchal Lucie. The Mesh. New York: Bantam Books 1959. New Bantam edition. Translation of a French novel depicting a relationship between two women with cover text describing "strange hidden passions. women living in a forbidden world." 4 Christian Paula. Another Kind of Love. Greenwich Conn: Fawcett Publications 1961. First Crest printing. Set in Hollywood following a writer and an actress in a same-sex relationship framed as "Women in Love with each other." 5 Aldrich Ann Marijane Meaker. We Too Must Love. Greenwich Conn: Fawcett Publications 1958. First printing. A nonfiction-inflected narrative drawing on lived experience introduced by the author as "the whys and wherefores of Lesbian life in New York City-as I have known it."<br /> <br /> These publications emerged within a pulp marketplace that relied on sensational marketing while operating under restrictions on explicit representation shaping how lesbian relationships could be depicted and circulated. Women authors such as Marijane Meaker writing under multiple names contributed to a shift toward more self-directed portrayals of lesbian identity while other writers expanded geographic and thematic scope across American and European settings. The presence of multiple works by women in a single grouping highlights a less dominant but significant strand of authorship within the genre. Together these texts provide primary evidence for the study of lesbian representation publishing practices and readership in the decades preceding broader public visibility of LGBTQ communities including developments associated with the Stonewall Riots.
