Full textThis thesis explores the healing effects of surrender to and trust in the alchemical nature of the psyche to produce psychospiritual transformation toward wholeness and wellbeing. Through alchemical hermeneutic, heuristic, and intuitive methodologies the research explores healing outcomes of merging with the divine through a relationship with a guru, consciously being in a love relationship, and engaging with astrology as alchemical processes that help to integrate unconscious content into consciousness. The author observes the alchemical process in the merging of heaven and earth, or cosmos and psyche, as it weaves through her own life. She tracks the alchemy through which an interpersonal love relationship and encounters with the guru Mata Amritanandamayi produced both physical and emotional healing. The thesis also explores the psychotherapeutic use of astrology and suggests ways to integrate experiences of the divine, interpersonal love, and one's astrological chart into psychotherapy to support healing and movement toward wholeness.

Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: This thesis represents an attempt to explore the use of metadiegetic film sound and its connection with qualities displayed by human physiology. Metadiegesis is chosen as the focus of this study, in order to point out the potential of film sound to be representative and not to slavishly imitate its visual counterpart. Therefore, because metadiegetic sound is deictic in nature, the first hurdle to clear was to navigate through a terminological minefield, allowing a clear glimpse of its true meaning and its connection with the filmic image. The researcher attempts to create hypothetical scenarios in order to analyse and discuss metadiegetic examples from films, convincingly utilised and less-convincingly so. The intention was to understand, clarify and disambiguate terminological uncertainties and inaccuracies. An exploration of asynchronous metadiegetic sound follows as refinement of the first step. This is done by resorting to existing examples in the form of extracts from films for demonstration purposes. As a result, the use of metadiegetic film sound is clearly defined and its use explained by attaching it to three concepts: a ‘story within a story’, external story space, and internal representation. It is argued that through these concepts, sound can be amalgamated with image to create a different realm, where sound and image tell more than an audio-visual story.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: In hierdie tesis poog die navorser om die gebruik van “metadiegetic” film-klank, en die verband wat dit met die menslike fisiologie hou, te verken. “Metadiegesis” vorm dus die fokuspunt van die navorsingstuk. Hierdie fokus beklemtoon film-klank se verteenwoordigende potensiaal, en die feit dat dit nie net ʼn slaafse nabootsing van die visuele aspek van film is nie. Aangesien “metadiegetic” klank dus deikties van aard is, is die eerste uitdaging om ʼn weg te vind deur ʼn terminologiese mynveld. Dit word gedoen in ʼn poging op ʼn duidelike begrip van die ware betekenis van “metadiegesis” te ontwikkel, en om die verband wat film-klank met die visuele aspek van film het, duidelik te maak. Die navorser poog in die eerste plek om hipotetiese scenario’s te skep om sodoende “metadiegetic” voorbeelde in films te analiseer en te bespreek. Die doel is om terminologiese onsekerhede en dubbelsinnighede te verstaan en te verklaar. Dan volg die verkenning van asinchroniese “metadiegetic” klank as verfyning van die eerste stap. Dit word gedoen deur gebruik te maak van film-uittreksels ter verduideliking van die bogenoemde stappe. Na aanleiding hiervan, is die gebruik van metadiegetiese film-klank duidelik gedefinieer, en die toepassing daarvan gekoppel aan drie konsepte: ʼn “storie binne-in ʼn storie”, “eksterne storie ruimte” en “interne verteenwoordiging”. Deur middel van hierdie konsepte kan klank saamsmelt met beeld om ʼn ander dimensie te betree, waar klank en beeld meer vertel as ʼn oudiovisuele storie.

Full textThis work presents a novel approach to the study of the Jābirian corpus while taking into consideration the existent works and literature and the problems of this peculiar corpus (synonymy, polysemy, dispersion of the knowledge, quotes od other authors, hypertextuality). Thanks to the modern technologies of computational analysis, this thesis aims to the digitalization of edited texts (Muḫtār Rasāʾil, Tabdīr al-iksīr al-aʿẓam, Kitāb al- ahjār) in order to create a digitalized corpus tagged following the Text Encoding Initiative (TEI), the most used annotation in Natural Language Processing (NLP). Section I is an introduction on the historical setting and remarks of the subject of the texts studied, comprising also an excursus on the figure of Jābir Ibn Hayyān and the querelle on his existence; and an explanation of the methodological setting in which this work is settled. Section II is the operational part, where are shown the compromises used in the realization of the digitalized corpus, as well as the strategies used so as to render the various issues presented in Section I. Section II presents the set of choices that tried to aswer to the questions made in Section I. The core of the work is represented by the Appendices, divided in four parts: Appendix A, B and C are extracts of the digitalized corpus, it was decided to include the first section of all the three source books, in order to represent every detail of the digitalization strategies and processes. Appendix D comprise a sample of concordances based on the lemmatization of the edition of the first two books of the Tadbīr. Appendix E is the frequency list of the same sample used for the concordances

Full textModest inquiry exists to elucidate why donors make large contributions to community colleges. Of every charitable dollar donated to education, two-year colleges receive 2 to 4 cents. This grounded theory study included 30 major donors to 23 colleges in 18 states. The questions were comprehensive: why donors and how donors make major gifts; internal and external factors, and how they work together; important synergies for cultivation, invitation, and stewardship; and why contributors choose community colleges. Six themes emerged: family history and role modeling; relationships with the college and its leaders; the desire to make a meaningful difference; the institution's role as an economic driver; a wish to give back; and donor recognition tailored to each individual. Forty percent of donors who made six- and seven-figure gifts were never invited to contribute; these extraordinary donations were unsolicited. The findings also suggest myriad recommendations for practice. Opportunities and models exist for staff to understand what inspires each unique donor. Volunteers may engage through storytelling and activism. Connections can deepen through core mission work. Colleges may expand interaction with students and faculty through shared experiences. Nurturing close relationships with major benefactors may help to engage their circles of influence. Leaders should challenge the myth that alumni give only to universities. Involving families may result in allies today and contributors tomorrow. College retirees often are excellent prospects. Donors prefer personalized recognition. Professional advisers can serve as influencers, potential conduits, and roadblocks. The two-year college fiscal model speaks to bottom-line donors. And the crucial message? It pays to ask.

Full textPeter Zhang, in writing on the work of Deleuze and Guatarri, identifies what he calls Deleuzian minor rhetoric 1: namely the need to step outside of the major language and occupy the position of minority. This position of minority, which for Deleuze is a position of power, is achieved through the process of becoming, a constant state of mobility. In a sense this is one of the motivations for my project - understanding the language of printmaking I find myself invested in by considering the material qualities of printmaking as well as the process or act of printing through a number of visual forms. In order better to understand my own position within printmaking, I have used this project to explore the figure or persona of the printmaker and in doing so I am journeying towards the Deleuzian position of minority by questioning ways of thinking about print and the printmaker. This project is located within the fine arts practice of printmaking, but positions itself as an investigation of the liminal, in-between processes of printmaking in terms of alchemy and ritual through the figure of the printmaker. The project is everything in-between the initial idea for a print and the final product, a space I have come to refer to as The Printer's Grey. This reflects my own art-making methodology and my particular approach and thinking within printmaking, where my notebooks and proofs hold the same importance as the eventual printed product. These objects all reveal a creative process, which is flexible and shifting rather than one that merely renders an image in printed form. In drawing attention to the in-between processes during the act of making I assert both its instrumental role in the creation of the print as well as the importance of the process as a site of thinking through the visual. Specifically in relation to printmaking, The Printer's Grey speaks to and seeks to draw into the gallery space aspects of the in-studio process of making a print - aspects which often remain hidden when viewing a print.
