Abstract:
The artist discusses the background, ideas, and work entitled Archetypes in Clay, for the completion of her Bachelor of Arts Degree and undergraduate research for the Fine and Performing Arts Scholar program at East Tennessee State University. The artist used this development of work to explore personality types, and how they can be portrayed through clay vessels. In particular, the artist shows her work, how she created the vessels, the testing involved, and the struggles she faced. Archetypes is the focus behind the concept of this project. Her work includes four ceramic vessels, created with clay and finished with glaze. The artist cites Carl Jung, Isabel Briggs-Myers, and NERIS Analytics Limited as important research in this project.

Roberts, Candice. "Exploring Brand Personality through Archetypes." Digital Commons @ East Tennessee State University, 2010. https://dc.etsu.edu/etd/1691.

Full text
Abstract:
Though brands are created and maintained using many different management strategies, market and academic research has offered evidence that brands presenting the strongest personalities are more likely to perform better and resonate longer with consumers. This paper examines the components of brand personality using connections between contemporary branding and 13 classic archetypes. The study also discusses the life cycle of the brand, including development of brand personality and achievement of iconic status in conjunction with archetypal marketing. The research of Faber and Mayer (2009) is the basis for an analysis measuring participant attitudes toward popular brands by matching them with archetypal descriptions and explores possible correlation between product category and archetype. Results show evidence for high levels of participant agreement when categorizing archetypal representations of popular brands as well as consistency across product category. Results are also indicative of a relationship between gender and archetype selection.

Klujber, Anita Rita. "Snow and window : archetypes of imagination." Thesis, University of Cambridge, 2002. https://www.repository.cam.ac.uk/handle/1810/244962.

Full text
Abstract:
Within the field of comparative literature, this dissertation investigates how the paired symbols of snow and window illuminate certain imaginative processes such as the threshold experience of creative and receptive acts. This work is an intertextual analysis and synthesis of self-allusive poems by Boris Pasternak, Ted Hughes, Gyula Illyes, and Gennady Aygi. Poems by other authors are also discussed briefly, or linked to the main texts through epigraphs. Contemplation of snow through a window is the central theme of the focused texts. Snowflakes falling on the window pane allegorically represent words on the page, and the observation of this process is a metaphor for the ongoing creative and receptive acts. Meditative contemplation of nature and of the processes of writing and reading are portrayed as means for an introspective self-discovery of imagination. The threshold experience of observing the creative mind as it is externalised in nature and embodied in the poetic text involves a deconstructive reversal and overlapping of the external and the internal worlds, and other opposites. The complex mental process of watching the internal in what is external is comparable to the fusion of the optical effects of transparency and reflection on a window. The works analysed reveal that poems can function both as 'windows' displaying external phenomena, and as symbolic 'mirrors' in which one can catch a glimpse of the working of imagination at the very act of simultaneously outward and inward contemplation. The methodological scope of this work is primarily concerned with the intertextual connective function of recurring poetic images (symbols). The metaphorical symbol is a central embodiment of imagination. By focusing on recurring symbols, one can establish links between literary texts and between various imaginative systems (such as literature, mythology, music and visual arts) on a primarily aesthetic basis, without recourse to extraliterary criteria. Northrop Frye's Theory of Symbols, Jungian archetypal criticism, Iurii Lotman's models of communication, and more recent theoretical works by Harold Bloom, Michael Riffaterre, Owen Miller, Roland Barthes, Jonathan Culler, Jacques Derrida, and other scholars serve as the conceptual framework for this approach. Five main intertextual relations are explored. The recurring metaphorical image is shown to be (1) a semantic link between works of the same author, (2) a manifestation of transpersonal features of imagination, (3) a trace of one author's text in the work of another, (4) a means for establishing hypothetical dialogues between texts which are not related by their authors, and (5) a potential connective between literature and other imaginative systems, such as mythology and visual art. These comparative analyses reveal that intertextual approaches are not only tools for uncovering and enriching the meanings of literary texts; they are also means for constructing order in one's otherwise chaotic corpus of reading, and they enable one to gain knowledge about the nature of imagination. The thematic and methodological aspects of the dissertation thus complement and support each other.

Lee, Jungha. "Using archetypes in the design process." Thesis, Konstfack, Industridesign, 2012. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:konstfack:diva-5521.

Abstract:
Archetypes enable consumers to interpret products, to understand their meaning and usage better. By having a memory of the object people can utilize it. There are several products designed without having this idea of using archetypes in mind, but when it is applied in design it can have both advantages and disadvantages. This study deals with using archetypes in designing processes and also concentrates on these pros and cons. In order to explore this diverse usage of archetype, I did a case study of released products where archetypes were applied in the designing process, categorizing the products in two groups. For the next step, I categorized the products we commonly use in four groups by usage and interaction with user. As a result I found that each category of product has its own characteristics. For the next step I designed four products using two approaches. I realized that the difficult part of designing could be solved by extra procedures. To fully deliver the intention of designer, it is important to have more usability test and questionnaires so that the feedbacks could intensify the archetype.

Full text
Abstract:
This research identifies the prevalent external forces that have been a catalyst to change in governance and management structures in UK universities. It reviews the effects of growing commercialisation against a backdrop of changing funding dynamics. The study included the political forces that have transformed higher education, alongside the proliferation of managerialism. It examines these effects against traditional welfarist and altruistic views of education, further investigating the differing management structures and archetypes that exist. In addition to this, the research reviews the effects of these forces against the more complex university typology of ancient, red brick. plate glass and new institutions. Utilising the pragmatic philosophical underpin the research employs mixedmethodological approaches of qualitative exploratory desk research, quantitative questionnaires and ultimately qualitative interviews. These entailed the analysis of data both inductively and deductively. Questionnaire and interview surveys were undertaken on UK universities on a range of staff groups within institutional hierarchies. These 'include senior management groups, teaching and research staff, and administrative staff to provide a diverse and reflective range of responses from all staff members. The research has identified changing notions of collegiality and traditional academic autonomy towards more managed and corporate focused management structures. It has further uncovered disparate approaches that exist against the various institutions as a factor of age of establishment rather than solely on type. It contributes to the current body of knowledge by amalgamating the different external forces and reviewing its effects on university management, further uncovering these management structures to exist as dominant-institutional and subsegmented or sub-structural forms alongside cultural permutations. The research further posits that the established dichotomy of traditional and new universities inaccurately reflects the complexity ofthe higher education sector within the UK.

Abstract:
This thesis analyses the Jungian archetypes employed in Beckett'
s trilogy. It begins with an overview of Jungian archetypes and the relation of these archetypes to the fundamental themes dealt with in Beckett'
s work. The thesis then asserts that some archetypal features occur almost obsessively and are further clearly implicated in the main themes of the trilogy. The central archetypal patterns that frequently appear in the novel are the hero'
s quest, return to paradise and rebirth. This dissertation is therefore primarily organised around these archetypes, and Beckett'
s use of these archetypal motifs to reinforce his black philosophy will be illustrated and exemplified in the study.

Abstract/Summary Dissertation Divination: Exemplifying and Configuring Archetypes in Ceramics is a study of my research practice. The cards of the tarot can be used as a conceptual framework and source of inspiration for making ceramic sculptures. The cards can be used to understand the creative process as an expression of archetypes. My dissertation discusses these archetypes from the tarot cards, both in their historical operation, their manifestation in my art practice, as well as, examining approaches taken to these archetypes by other artists such as Salvador Dali and Niki de Saint Phalle. The theoretical basis for the dissertation is informed by the writings of Carl G. Jung who has proposed concepts dealing with creativity, coincidence, a collective unconscious and archetypes. These ideas form a model for the understanding of my studio work. As background, the dissertation examines examples of artworks that could be seen to be drawn from a collective unconscious. Studio Work The studio work consists of a series of ceramic sculptures formulating the archetypes that I have derived from the tarot cards. The three dimensional clay, with found inclusions, examines the idea of specific archetypes. These archetypes are titled in the works including: The Fool, Strength, The Magician, Tarot Sun, The Empress II, The Lovers, Empress l, The Chariot I and II The Angel Temperance, The Tarot Devil and The World. The ceramic objects have been created in clay using handbuilding techniques. The clay was such that it could include found ceramic pieces and be refired. The pieces have been re-fired many times to achieve a variety of glaze effects. The works range in size from 30-60 cms approximately and include freestanding sculptures and complementing flat wall works.

Simic, Anderson Magdalena. "(Dis)identifying female archetypes in live art." Thesis, Lancaster University, 2007. http://eprints.lancs.ac.uk/78761/.

Full text
Abstract:
My thesis considers a feminist arts practice as a form of political agency. My research is practice-led. It consists of three performances/live art events (Medea/Mothers’ Clothes, Magdalena Makeup and Joan Trial), its documentation on three sets of DVDs and a written dissertation. Female archetypes, which have tended to be associated with the canonical, underpin my research investigations. Through my arts practice I intervene in three archetypal images of women that are representative of the patriarchal canon: Medea (the anti-mother), Mary Magdalene (the penitent whore) and Joan of Arc (virgin martyr). I juxtapose their ‘universality’ with the experiential, the local and the contemporary. I draw on the authoritative personal voice of the lived anxiety of the experience of motherhood (Medea), name identification (Mary Magdalene), spirituality/heroism (Joan of Arc) and the sense of ‘being foreign’, seen as ‘Other’. Working from my subject figuration of a ‘Foreigner’ (Croatian, living in Britain), my local community and experience of my daily life as a mother and artist-researcher in Liverpool, I (dis)identify with socio-culturally prescribed forms of the feminine, as conventionally represented by these archetypes. The production of my arts practice is understood as my political commitment to the world, a part of and an intervention into my everyday living. This thesis is situated and contextualized within the field of contemporary British Live Art practices, feminist solo performance and transnational arts practices. For the purposes of facilitating my agency as an artist, throughout the thesis I use postcolonial and transnational feminist studies as well as feminist discourses on the ‘politics of location’ and ‘lived experience’, particularly the work of Sara Ahmed, Atvar Brah, Teresa de Lauretis, Inderpal Grewal, Caren Kaplan, Doreen Massey, Chandra Talpade Mohanty, Elspeth Probyn, Gayatri Spivak and Iris Marion Young.

Abstract:
This is a research B for the University of Bologna. The course is the civil engineering LAUREA MAGISTRALE at UNIBO. The main purpose of this research is to promote another way of explaining, analyzing and presenting some civil engineering aspects to the students worldwide by theory, modeling and photos. The basic idea is divided into three steps. The first one is to present and analyze the theoretical parts. So a detailed analysis of the theory combined with theorems, explanations, examples and exercises will cover this step. At the second, a model will make clear all these parts that were discussed in the theory by showing how the structures work or fail. The modeling is able to present the behavior of many elements, in scale which we use in the real structures. After these two steps an interesting exhibition of photos from the real world with comments will give the chance to the engineers to observe all these theoretical and modeling-laboratory staff in many different cases. For example many civil engineers in the world may know about the air pressure on the structures but many of them have never seen the extraordinary behavior of the bridge of Tacoma ‘dancing with the air’. At this point I would like to say that what I have done is not a book, but a research of how this ‘3 step’ presentation or explanation of some mechanical characteristics could be helpful. I know that my research is something different and new and in my opinion is very important because it helps students to go deeper in the science and also gives new ideas and inspirations. This way of teaching can be used at all lessons especially at the technical. Hope that one day all the books will adopt this kind of presentation.

Ashdown, Sheena. "Jungian archetypes in selected plays of James Reaney." Thesis, University of British Columbia, 1986. http://hdl.handle.net/2429/26359.

Full text
Abstract:
James Reaney, Canadian playwright and poet, attempted in his early plays for adults to blend Northrop Frye's description of New Comedy with the archetypal theories of Carl Jung. Reaney was interested, as was Jung, in the inner journey of the human soul to maturity, and he wanted to portray this on stage. To this end, he used many of the archeytypes described by Jung. This inward journey is usually the stuff of tragedy, but Reaney did not want to write tragedies. He wanted instead to portray success and a happy resolution. Therefore, he adhered closely to the form of New Comedy, which portrays the successful struggle of a young man to overcome the restrictions placed on him by the older generation as he attempts to marry and become an adult. The archetypes conform to the characters described by Frye as essential to New Comedy and they also allow Reaney to portray in an external and theatrical manner the inner characters of the soul. This thesis describes the archetypes that Reaney has used and how he has used them in three of his plays, The Easter Egg, Listen to the Wind, and Colours in the Dark. These plays have been selected because each play represents a particular way in which Reaney has used the archetypes. In conclusion, a broad analysis of Reaney's progressive use of the archetypes has been attempted as well as an examination of his more recent play The Donnellys. In The Easter Egg the Jungian structure of the soul is presented in nearly perfect form. The anima, shadow and wise old man archetypes can be seen in the characters and Kenneth at the end of the play becomes the child archetype. In Listen to the Wind, the archetypes are less important than they are in The Easter Egg. The characters form the marriage quaternio archetype. In Colours in the Dark the archetypes are only minimally evident in the characters. Instead, the structure of the play itself assumes importance. It is circular and creates the archetype of the sphere. The final archetypes in all the plays symbolize wholeness and the complete soul. There is a progression in Reaney's use of them. In The Easter Egg, the individual character has become the child archetype. In Listen to the Wind, a group of characters has become the marriage quarternio archetype. In Colours in the Dark, the play itself has become the sphere archetype. The archetypes have become progressively larger, less individualized and more encompassing. When Reaney wrote The Donnellys. he was no longer interested in the journey of the soul. These characters cannot be considered the archetypes of the soul; Reaney has become more interested in the characters for their own sakes. This focus makes The Donnellys play not only much more realistic, but also more theatrical. Reaney's least Jungian play is less fantastical but also more stageworthy. He has left behind the inner world of mysterious characters and treads more earthy ground where the people of everyday life are to be found. As a result, his plays have become more accessible to the theatre-going public. Reaney's use of the archetypes allowed him to portray on stage the difficult combination of the inward journey of a soul and the happy resolution of the comedic structure. The task he set himself was difficult and the results may have been flawed, but he ingeniously used the archetypes as an imaginative solution to a perhaps impossible problem.

Finn, Connell Shannon Erin. "Exploring Operational Practices and Archetypes of Design Thinking." Thesis, Benedictine University, 2013. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=3569135.

Full text
Abstract:

This study empirically explores operational practices and archetypes of design thinking in various organizational constructs. The emphasis is on examining the common operational practices applied in design thinking initiatives, to determine whether there are variations in the patterns of applications of these operational practices across different design thinking initiatives, and to identify what may explain such variations if they indeed do exist. The extant literature on design thinking distributed across many disciplines was assessed to determine the common operational practices underlying design thinking initiatives. These practices were then tested in the real-work context of 41 design thinking initiatives.

Two hypotheses were central to this study. First, the many operational practices of design thinking can be reduced to certain core elements or factors that are consistent across various contexts of design thinking initiatives. This hypothesis is tested through factor analysis of 32 operational practices of design thinking across 41 design thinking initiatives. Second, there will be specific archetypes or clusters of design thinking across various contexts where emphasis on core operational practices will vary depending on the context of the design thinking initiative. This hypothesis is tested through cluster analysis of the results of the factor analysis of the 32 operational practices of design thinking derived from the data cross the 41 design thinking initiatives. The cluster analysis assesses whether there are, indeed, archetypal differences in terms of these core operational practices. Then, using qualitative data derived from interviews of 10 design thinking initiatives, case exemplars highlight each of the four archetypes of design thinking initiatives and further speculate on the assumptive domain or the guiding principles that undergird these different archetypes of design thinking operational practices.

This study shows seven factors of operational practices of design thinking emerging from the data, identifying empirical categories that are present across various contexts of design thinking initiatives. These empirical categories highlight the consistency and importance of concepts in design thinking, including cooperative understanding; aspirational visioning; truth seeking; comprehensive solutioning; optimistic collaborating; analytical prototyping; and personal reflecting. Further analysis of the data revealed four archetypes of design thinking initiatives that differed by operational practices of design thinking as well as other key organizational characteristics. A metaphorical construct was applied to the archetypes to symbolize the similarities of the design thinking initiatives to four sports races: training, emphasizing learning by doing and more novice design thinking initiatives; marathons, capturing personal reflection in long timeframe change initiatives; relays, highlighting team collaboration and codesign in complex initiatives; and sprints, emphasizing fast-paced product innovation initiatives. Case studies of the four archetypes were used to provide context to the archetypes. Speculation on the underlying assumptive domains of the archetypes is captured in a model differentiating designer-led versus team-driven design thinking initiatives and low versus high sense of urgency.

Ideally, the results of this study may provide diagnostic insight into the patterns of design thinking initiatives, thus helping managers recognize aspects of design thinking that may already be present in their organization. The archetypes may also be used predictively, aiding organizations pursuing design thinking by utilizing the model as a way of identifying characteristics similar to their own design thinking considerations and goals.

Wilson, Brian Scott. "Orchestrational archetypes in Percy Grainger's wind band music." Diss., The University of Arizona, 1992. http://hdl.handle.net/10150/185861.

Full text
Abstract:
This study closely examines the orchestrational techniques in four of Percy Grainger's wind band compositions; Colonial Song, Irish Tune From County Perry, Molly On The Shore, and five movements from Lincolnshire Posy; Lisbon, Horkstow Grange, The Brisk Young Sailor, and The Lost Lady Found. These are works which are representative of Grainger' s orchestrational techniques. This information has been used to newly orchestrate three of Grainger's pieces for band in his orchestrational style. They are The Cutting of the Hay, Lord Maxwell's Goodnight, and British Waterside (or The Jolly Sailor). It is interesting to note that all but one of these band works (Horkstow Grange) are orchestrations of previously completed compositions. Presumably, Grainger's attention would have been focused on matters of scoring only when writing for band. In analyzing Grainger's orchestrational techniques in these pieces, I have not made any value judgments as to their success. I have also been very careful not to compare these techniques to any other composer. Rather, I have done an exhaustive survey of recurring orchestrational techniques in an attempt to understand why his wind band music sounds the way it does. Chapter I identifies and codifies Grainger's scoring of melodic material. Similarly, Chapter II deals with countermelodic material. Chapter III examines recurring features in Grainger's part writing. Chapter IV documents his preoccupation with contrapuntal dynamic techniques. There is no debate that Grainger made an original contribution to the wind band literature. This study has explored in depth Grainger's orchestrational techniques in an attempt to show specifically why his wind band music is so readily identifiable as Grainger. It is my assertion that the Grainger 'sound' is a function of recurring orchestrational techniques rather than other compositional elements such as melody or harmony. His consistent choice of doublings for both melody and countermelody place a personal stamp upon his music. His continual use of contrapuntal dynamics to achieve timbrel effects also renders his music distinguishable as being only by Grainger. His part writing proves always to be uniquely satisfying because of the constant voice shifting and meandering parts.

Rohr, Lia N. "The Performance of Gender Archetypes in Political Campaigns." OpenSIUC, 2013. https://opensiuc.lib.siu.edu/dissertations/698.

Full text
Abstract:
In this study, I examine how congressional candidates present gendered identities on their campaign websites. In my theory of candidate gendered identity, drawn from literature on presentation of the self and gender performativity, I argue that candidates construct their personal identities in relation to universally understood archetypes, which stand for ideal representations of real-world characters or roles. Through an in-depth content analysis of the biographical pages of 2010 U.S. House of Representatives candidate campaign websites, I examine how candidates construct and perform a range of gender-based archetypal roles in various electoral contexts. Specifically, I look at how such factors as electoral context, candidate partisan identification, and incumbency status (or challenger status) determine the range of archetypal roles a candidate might choose to perform. What I find is that candidate gender matters, but only for some candidates in some contexts. For many candidates, these factors have an interacting effect on the manner in which a candidate presents his or her gender-based identity. This study contributes to our current understanding of how political candidates behave and present themselves in their political campaigns. In their efforts to connect with and gain the trust of potential voters, candidates present their personal identities through the performances of familiar archetypes with which those voters can easily identify.

Abstract:
Optimizing the extraction of oil and other hydrocarbon products from existing sites is important. One source of hydrocarbon products is reservoirs found within sedimentary rock formations. Understanding fluid behavior within such formations can be quite useful in optimizing oil production. Fluid behavior within sedimentary formations is influenced by the bedform structure and permeabilities within the formation. Thus, we are concerned with developing a physically and statistically valid method of characterizing sedimentary rock formations. The use of archetypal analysis to generate synthetic bedforms, as well as the use of Kriging to assign permeabilities within a bedform, was explored. With these tools, a characterization of a sedimentary rock formation can be created and fluid flow through the charactrerization examined. It appears that the bedform structure within a realization has a greater influence on fluid flow than any permeability structure created by utilizing Kriging.

Abstract:

Our earth has begun its sixth extinction and our culture thrives in ideological third nature and the era of technology. Hardcore pornography demonstrates a fear-based split in the relationship between the Great Mother and Terrible Mother archetypes, and the consumption of violent sexual material is indicative of existential death-avoidance, or despair. The archetypes present in the Moms/Hot Mom/Mother/MILF, Youth/Teen, and 18 and Abused categories of porn evoke the fear of the feminine as related to Mother Earth, and elucidate the collective’s split feminine archetypes. This research uses heuristic and alchemical hermeneutic research methods to discern how these archetypes within hardcore pornography explicate our cultural complex regarding Mother Nature. What results is a call to consciousness and a clinical aim toward shadow integration, the assimilation of masculine and feminine parts of self, and a cohesive relationship toward imagery and imagination, lest they be altogether replaced by pornography.

Abstract:
This master’s thesis examines three literary archetypes as they appear in the two novels of Patrick Rothfuss’ high fantasy series The Kingkiller Chronicle released thus far — The Name of the Wind and The Wise Man’s Fear. The thesis provides a brief outline of the history of archetypes, inspecting Carl Jung’s original psychoanalytical theories on the unconscious and the archetypes within, James Frazer’s anthropological examinations as well as the literary significance of archetypes as discussed by, for example, Joseph Campbell and Northrop Frye. Using this as a theoretical background, the paper proceeds to review the three primary archetypes used in the analysis: hero, shadow and trickster, as well as demonstrating how these archetypes have been employed in the analysis of literature and film in the past. The primary goals of the analysis are to examine if these three archetypes are present in the protagonist of the aforementioned novels, whether these archetypes are employed in a conventional or an original manner as well as if these three archetypes co-actualize in the protagonist to create a multi-dimensional, round character as opposed to a flat character. These goals are pursued by identifying and analysing archetypally significant sections and events from the two novels. The analysis reveals that the three archetypes do co-actualize in the protagonist, thus creating a complex, multi-dimensional character. Furthermore, the novels contain both conventional archetypal scenes and non-conventional ones, which shows the flexibility of literary archetypes as well as their potential to keep evolving and adding to their definitions the new, complex characteristics that the creative minds of authors have and will invent without compromising the fundamental idea of archetypes as recognizable patterns that permeate all of literature
Tämä pro gradu -työ tarkastelee kolmen kirjallisuuden arkkityypin käyttöä Patrick Rothfussin fantasiankirjasarjassa Kuninkaansurmaajan kronikka, josta on tähän mennessä julkaistu kaksi romaania: Tuulen nimi ja Viisaan miehen pelko. Työ käsittelee lyhyesti arkkityyppien historiaa alkaen Carl Jungin psykoanalyyttisistä teorioista alitajunnasta ja sen sisältämistä arkkityypeistä, siirtyen James Frazerin antropologisiin havaintoihin ja lopulta esimerkiksi Joseph Campbellin ja Northrop Fryen väitteisiin kirjallisuuden arkkityyppien merkittävyydestä. Tämä toimii työn teoreettisena taustana, jonka jälkeen sen kolme keskeistä arkkityyppiä — sankari, kelmi ja kujeilija — rajataan. Tätä seuraa katsaus näiden kolmen arkkityypin aikaisempaan hyödyntämiseen niin kirjallisuudessa kuin elokuvissa. Tutkielman päämääräisinä tavoitteina ovat selvittää ovatko nämä kolme arkkityyppiä löydettävissä edellä mainituissa romaaneissa, käytetäänkö niitä tavanomaisella vai poikkeavalla tavalla ja aktualisoituvatko nämä kolme arkkityyppiä yhdessä romaanin päähenkilössä luoden moniulotteisen, pyöreän hahmon verrattuna litteään hahmoon. Näiden tavoitteiden toteuttamiseksi molemmista teoksista tutkitaan katkelmia ja osioita, jotka ovat arkkityypillisesti merkittäviä. Analyysi paljastaa, että nämä kolme arkkityyppiä todella aktualisoituvat romaanin päähenkilössä luoden monitahoisen hahmon. Lisäksi molemmat novellit sisältävät sekä tavanomaisia arkkityypillisiä osioita että epätavallisia osioita. Tämä paljastaa kirjallisuuden arkkityyppien joustavuuden sekä niiden potentiaalin jatkaa muuttumista. Täten niiden määritelmiin lisätään uusia, kompleksisia tunnusmerkkejä, joita kirjailijat ovat luoneet ja tulevat luomaan kuitenkaan vaarantamatta arkkityyppien olennaista ideaa tunnistettavista malleista, jotka tulevat aina olemaan kirjallisuuden keskiössä

Abstract:

Archetypes are used to standardize a way of creating, presenting and distributing health care data. In this master thesis project the open specifications of openEHR was followed. The objective of this master thesis project has been to develop a Java based API for creating and editing openEHR archetypes. The API is a programming toolbox that can be used when developing archetype editors. Another purpose has been to implement validation functionality for archetypes. An important aspect is that the functionality of the API is well documented, this is important to ease the understanding of the system for future developers. The result was a Java based API that is a platform for future archetype editors. The API-kernel has optional immutability so developed archetypes can be locked for modification by making them immutable. The API is compatible with the openEHR specifications 1.0.1, it can load and save archetypes in ADL (Archetype Definition Language) format. There is also a validation feature that verifies that the archetype follows the right structure with respect to predefined reference models. This master thesis report also presents a basic GUI proposal.

Na composição familiar, o papel do pai foi um dos que mais se transformou ao longo dos últimos anos. Nesta dissertação, propomos uma investigação acerca das mudanças pelas quais passaram e ainda passam os homens e pais na pós-modernidade. Para tanto, nos servimos do arcabouço teórico da Psicologia Analítica de C. G. Jung. Dentro desta linha teórica, destacamos principalmente os arquétipos masculinos e o arquétipo do pai, os quais muitas vezes se confundem, bem como suas manifestações diferenciadas nos dias de hoje. De modo análogo, ponderamos os estatutos da persona e da sombra no pai da modernidade e no pai da atualidade. A ideia de pai já existia de forma inconsciente antes do entendimento da paternidade física. A paternidade, entendida como uma invenção social, é uma atribuição específica do homem, enquanto a maternidade é específica da mulher. Foi necessário fazer o contraponto entre masculino e feminino, entre patriarcado e matriarcado, assim como paternidade e maternidade, pois tais temas se mostram profundamente entrelaçados. Além disso, recorremos à mitologia e aos rituais descritos em estudos antropológicos para auxiliar no entendimento da antiguidade destas questões. Haja vista a ocorrência de uma relativização dos arquétipos masculinos na cultura atual, propomos a discussão do conceito de novo pai e se este poderia ser considerado como um novo símbolo do masculino no campo da paternidade.
In family composition, the role of the father was one of the most has been transformed over the past few years. In this dissertation, we propose an investigation into the changes that have gone and still go men and fathers in postmodernity. In order to do this, we took the theoretical framework of the Analytical Psychology of C.G. Jung. Within this theoretical line, we include mainly masculine archetypes and archetype of the father, which often overlap, as well as their different manifestations today. Similarly, we ponder the statutes of the persona and the shadow of his father and the father of modernity today. The idea of father has existed before unconsciously understanding of physical paternity. Fatherhood, understood as a social invention is a specific allocation of man, while maternity is specific of the woman. It was necessary to make the contrast between masculine and feminine, between patriarchy and matriarchy, between fatherhood and motherhood, because such issues are deeply intertwined show. Furthermore, we resort to the mythology and rituals described by the anthropological studies to facilitate the understanding of ancient studies of these issues. Given the occurrence of a relativization of masculine archetypes in the current culture, we propose to discuss the concept of new father and whether this could be considered as a new symbol of the masculine in the field of fatherhood.

Full text
Abstract:
The overview of contributions to metaphor theory in Chapters 1 and 2, examined in reference to recent scholarship, suggests that the current theory of metaphor derives from long-standing traditions that regard metaphor as a crucial process of cognition. This overview calls to attention the necessity of a closer inspection of previous theories of metaphor. Chapter 3 takes initial steps in synthesizing views of domains of inquiry into cognitive processes of the human mind. It draws from cognitive models developed in linguistics and anthropology, taking into account hypotheses put forth by psychologists like Jung. It sets the stage for an analysis that intends to further understanding of how the East-West dichotomy guides, influences, and expresses cognitive processes. Although linguist George Lakoff denies the existence of a connection between metaphors, myths, and archetypes, Chapter 3 illustrates the possibility of a relationship among these phenomena. By synthesizing theoretical approaches, Chapter 3 initiates the development of a model suitable for the analysis of the East-West dichotomy as exercised in Chapter 4. As purely emergent from bodily experience, however, neither the concept of the East nor the concept of the West can be understood completely. There exist cultural experiences that may, depending on historical and social context, override bodily experience inclined to favor the East over the West because of the respective connotations of place of birth of the sun and place of death of the sun. This kind of overriding cultural meaning is based on the “typical, frequently recurring and widely shared interpretations of some object, abstract entity, or event evoked in people as a result of similar experiences. To call these meanings ‘cultural meanings' is to imply that a different interpretation is evoked in people with different characteristic experiences. As such, various interpretations of the East-West image-schema exist simultaneously in mutually exclusive or competing forms, as the analysis of Gatsby and the reversal of the values of East and West in the context of colonizing and counter-colonizing attitudes suggests.

Abstract:
This study was an empirical investigation to reveal the goddesses that women identify with over the life cycle. The approach was designed to reveal how women experience these images. Every subject was asked to indicate how much she experienced each goddess as representing herself or as representing something she has experienced in herself. The Coan Inventory of Masculine and Feminine Dimensions (1989) was utilized to assess: nurturance, emotional accessibility, aesthetic-imaginal orientation, piety, ascendance, concrete action, impulsivity, autonomy, orderliness, activity, expressiveness vs. reticence, and sensuality. The inventory scale scores indicated the qualities within each goddess that women were relating to. The study explored: (1) whether patterns of goddess identification varied with age, (2) whether dimensions of femininity and masculinity varied with age, and (3) how masculine and feminine dimensions related to goddess identification. The results indicated: Hestia and piety rose progressively with age; Demeter appeared in women of 30 and 40; Persephone and Aphrodite were repressed in the sample, although women wanted to develop Aphrodite more; Athena predominated in women of 30; and Artemis was the goddess women of 60 wanted to develop more. There is the suggestion from this research that the Women's movement with resulting cultural shifts in the 1970's and 1980's have produced strong Athenas. In the late 1980's, Hestia seemed to emerge as a spiritual archetype. A dawning archetype among women in the 1990's, as indicated by the subjects in this study, will be Aphrodite.

Abstract:
In der betriebswirtschaftlichen Forschung gewinnt die KMU- und Entrepreneurshipforschung zunehmend mehr Aufmerksamkeit. In den letzten Jahren wurden zahlreiche Konzepte aus der Forschung für große Unternehmen auf den Entre­preneur­ship- und KMU-Bereich übertragen und dort angewendet, ohne ihre Eignung für Klein- und Kleinstunternehmen zu überprüfen. Eine (empirische) Überprüfung, inwieweit die zugrundeliegenden Modelle und Annahmen auch im Bereich der KMU allgemein zutreffen, ist daher sicherlich angebracht. Eines dieser Werkzeuge, das in letzter Zeit immer mehr in den Blickpunkt der Forschung rückt, ist Entrepreneurial Orientation. Mit Entrepreneurial Orientation steht ein Werkzeug zur Verfügung, dass den gesamten Lebenszyklus eines Unternehmens abbilden kann und Elemente sowohl der Entrepreneurship- als auch der Organisations- und Strategieforschung integriert. Inwieweit Kombinationen von Entrepreneurial Orientation bei Konfigurationen von Unternehmens­eigenschaften für kleine und mittlere Unternehmen einen Erkenntnisbeitrag leisten können, wird in diesem Buch theoretisch und empirisch untersucht
Recently, a major focus in economical research is on small- and medium-sized enterprises and entrepreneurship. As part of this development, many concepts have been transferred and adapted to the Entrepreneurship and SME sector from large corporation research, without being tested for their fit to this area. An (empirical) examination how the underlying models and assumptions transferred apply also to the field of SMEs in general seems to be necessary. One of the tools that gain more attention every year is the concept of Entrepreneurial Orientation. Entrepreneurial Orientation provides a tool that can model the entire lifecycle of an enterprise and integrates elements of entrepreneurship as well as organizational and strategy research. This book does provide a theoretical and empirical evaluation of how Entrepreneurial Orientation may be useful by designing configurations of small and medium-sized enterprises

Abstract:
This thesis recognizes that organizational culture is a primary determinant of innovation capability and argues the need to better understand this relationship or process as a necessary prerequisite to nurturing it in a more structured and systematic manner. The study explores this relationship within an R&D environment in telecommunications. It draws upon the knowledge management, organisational behaviour and organisational theory literatures to conceptualise organisational culture as a repository of knowledge. Using a soft systems bottom up approach four cultural archetypes with specific knowledge dynamics are identified and developed through a three-phase multi-method research strategy. These provide a clearer understanding of the relationship between organisational culture and innovation capability. The thesis concludes by considering strategies for improving innovation capability through the effective and appropriate movement between these archetypes.

Full text
Abstract:
In this thesis, I read transgressive archetypes from the Mahabharata and how these particular archetypes have been produced in novels and films, in relation to their his~orical contexts. Throughout my analysis and exploration I consider that identities are produced, not 'natural' , and that what is considered to be sexual dissidence differs in different contexts. I look at the relationship between narratives of sexual dissidences and the nationalist constructs of heteronorrnativity, ultimately seeking to find the ways in which non-heteronormative constructs can produce disruption to postcolonial, nationalist narratives. The first two chapters explore the re-writing of the Mahabharata character, Amba, a female, who later becomes Sikhandin(i), a female who becomes male. Chapter One explores a re-working of this transgressive archetype in Bankimchandra Chatterji's nationbuilding novel, Anandamath. Amba appears as Shanti, a female who cross-dresses to become Nabinananda and help free the motherland. I explore the disruptions to normative gender and query the foundations of the 'nation as mother.' Chapter Two explores the narrative functions of the same mythological archetype in Shashi Tharoor's The Great Indian Novel. It also articulates an 'idea ofIndia', but at a very different moment. Since the novel is re-written through the epic, there are, apart from Amba, many more characters from the Mahabharata within the text; I read these to explor~ the production of the 'idea ofIndia' through queered bodies. In Chapter Three I focus on yaari (romantic friendship between men), in popular Hindi cinema of the 1970s. The chapter explores the re-working of transgressive archetypes in Bollywood narratives from the era of Indira Gandhi's Emergency and reads them against recent films from India and the South Asian diaspora identified as 'gay' or 'lesbian'. I explore the articulation of romance between men against representations of sexual identity, both in relation to the narrative of the nation.

Full text
Abstract:
This study introduces a literary Theory of African-American Archetypes, which is an outgrowth of two parent theories, Archetypal Criticism and African-American Literary Criticism. The theory posits that the folklore of Africana peoples created and inform culturally specific archetypes, which are deeply seeded in the collective unconscious of many African Americans. As in life, such archetypes are prevalent in African-American literature, which is momentous because they are both historic and perpetual within the community. The African-American Archetypal Big Mama is the character that will be used to demonstrate the theory as a viable form of literary criticism, using Gloria Naylor’s Mama day. Examination of her opposite, the Whistlin’ Woman, in Tina McElroy Ansa’s Ugly Ways and Taking After Mudear will substantiate and define the African-American Archetypal Big Mama by negation. Elucidation and application of the theory to African American literature are significant because they widen the criticism particularly for texts by and for African Americans. Additionally, the application opens the doors for critics of multi-ethnic literature to examine their own cultural idiosyncrasies and subsequent lore for archetypes explicit to their literary traditions.

The respondents were students at Linnaeus University in the ages of 20-27. The personality archetypes were mapped through a conceptual model, based on the foundations of a personality; ego or social, with tendencies of having freedom or order characteristics. The respondent’s ethical behaviour was mapped in a conceptual model, then analysed in accordance with existing personalities. The results show differences in what triggers consumers’ behaviour in ethical consumption and that the individual’s personality determines to what extent.

African American Studies
Ph.D.
Hip hop reached its thirty-fifth year of existence in 2008. Hip hop has indeed evolved into a global phenomenon. This dissertation is grounded in Afro-modern, Afrocentric and African-centered theory and utilizes textual and content analysis. This dissertation offers a panoramic view of pre-hip hop era and hip hop era icons, iconology, archetypes and aesthetics and teases out their influence on hip hop aesthetics. I identify specific figures, movements and events within the context of African American and American folk and popular culture traditions and link them to developments within hip hop culture, discourse, and aesthetics. Because hip-hop emerged as an American phenomenon, I examine pre-hip hop American popular culture in the twentieth century such as America's World's Fairs, superhero mythology, popular culture iconography, etc. and illustrate the ways in which they served as cultural, social and historical precursors to hip hop aesthetics. Chapter 1 provides an introduction, which includes a definition of terms, statement of the problem and literature review. It also offers a perfunctory discussion of hip hop as culture. Chapter 2 examines pre-hip hop era African-American and American iconography, iconology and archetypes and the subcultures that spawned them (e.g. sports culture, comic super hero narratives, westerns, and the culture of capitalism, etc.). I explore early twentieth century popular culture, iconography, and manhood, and link them to hip-hop aesthetics. Lastly, this chapter identifies Afrocentric cross-currents within hip hop culture, which I describe as the post-Afrocentric movement in hip hop culture, and illustrate the ways in which hip hop culture grappled with the efficacy and viability of Afrocentric motifs, theory and aesthetics Chapter 3 offers a comparative analysis of blues and hip hop aesthetics. I explore gender dynamics within the context of inter-genre, call-and-response between male emcees and female neo-soul artists. Chapter 4 traces the development of hip-hop aesthetics and draws on African, American and African-American cultural practices to analyze its development. I focus on early characteristics of hip-hop culture, which are foundational components of hip-hop expression such as the influence of comic book super hero narratives. Hip-hop aesthetics are an amalgamation of post-modern, post-industrial, urban blues sensibilities filtered through African-American musical traditions. I utilize Bakari Kitwana's conceptualization of the hip hop worldview as a basis for highlighting hip hop attitudes, aesthetics, and expectations. Lastly, chapter 4 expands upon previous socio-economic discussions on hip hop culture with a focus on hip hop aesthetics and expression. In chapter 5, I identify specific pre-hip hop icons and their influence on hip-hop aesthetics. I examine the significance of the selection of these icons and their relevance to hip-hop aesthetics. This chapter explores hip-hop iconography, iconology and archetypes. I explore the significance of specific icons and archetypes within hip-hop culture and examine the socio-historical, political, and cultural implications of their selection. Icons and archetypes are integral parts of African, African-American, and American culture. I illustrate how these cultural origins are reflected within hip-hop's engagement of American popular culture icons. I also identify more recent hip hop icons and archetypes (e.g. the hater and gold digger), which operate as signifiers in hip hop narratives and aesthetics. Chapter 6 identifies specific characteristics of hip hop expression. I examine black male identity construction as it relates to hip-hop aesthetics and archetypal influences, particularly notions of 'bad" and "cool" within hip-hop culture. Perhaps more than any other African-American archetype, the badman/bad nigga archetype has survived within African-American male narratives. I explore the evolution of bad within hip hop aesthetics and offer a cultural analysis of 1984, identifying specific icons (e.g. Run-DMC), attitudes, values and trends that shaped both hip-hop culture and American popular culture. 1984 is an ideal site by which to examine the interface between race, class, sex, politics, American violence, technology, and pop culture. I examine specific cross-currents within 1980s American popular media and explore the ways in which hip hop narratives and aesthetics reappropriate and engage specific popular culture texts. I assert that not only was the framework for hip-hop aesthetics were solidified during the early 1980s, but also the framework for a new popular culture discourse effected by shifts in public policy concerning public space, racial representations and an emerging global market culture. I identify key figures, icons, archetypes, and popular media, circa 1984, and their influence on hip hop aesthetics and discourse.

Abstract:
This studio-based research is a visual investigation and consequent reinterpretation of notable female archetypes who embodied exceptional strength of character, individuality and authority. However, they were dispossessed of their positive powers, discredited, even demonised, within the progressively male-dominated cultures of Western history. In their corrupted forms, the stories and reputations of these muchdiminished female archetypes left a detrimental legacy for the status of women. Alternatively, in their positive forms they have the potential to contribute to unconstrained possibilities for women’s consciousness and expectations of womanhood. Of the many female archetypes found throughout history and extant today, inspirational examples—mythological serpent women deities, past and present female warriors, as well as female archetypes considered as having inherently negative qualities—were chosen as subjects for the creation of investigatory artworks. Creative investigations took place within the theoretical frameworks of feminist revisionist mythology and the female imaginary. These two frameworks provided a critical context in which patriarchal interpretations could be challenged and reinterpreted based upon earlier female imaginaries. Situated between the conscious and the unconscious, this female imaginary is still best realised and communicated through the narratives of myths and the symbols of visual art. Consequently, this study examined the contemporary canon of artists working with female archetypes in both the formation and redressing of the representation of women today. A heuristic research methodology was used to achieve the artwork outcomes, the reinterpretation of archetypes realised through paintings that combine appropriation and juxtaposition, as well as representational and abstract imagery. These re-presentations were made possible through extensive painterly experimentation and culminated with the incorporation of the vesica piscis—a form of sacred geometry considered an elemental female symbol— as the constant central element of each composition. A cogent visual language had to be developed that was capable of contesting and counteracting the negative stereotypes of the chosen female archetypes. Further, the paintings had to not only render visible, but to illuminate, the positive qualities and behaviours of these archetypal women. Through this illumination, there is the potential for their dignity and authority to be restored, appreciated—both symbolically and practically—and thereby result in a more informed and powerful female identity and imaginary for the twenty-first century.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis analyzes the process of women&rsquo
s mythmaking in the plays written by female playwrights. Through writing the lives of female writers and rewriting the literary characters, which have been created by male writers, the women playwrights assume the role of a mythmaker. A mythmaker possesses the power to use the &lsquo
word,&rsquo
thereby possesses the power to control &lsquo
reality.&rsquo
However, for centuries, women have been debarred from generating their own myths, naming their own experiences, and controlling their own &lsquo
realities.&rsquo
Male mythmakers prescribed the roles women were required to perform within the society. Feminist archetypal theorists believe that through a close study of related patterns in women&rsquo

Unveiling these archetypes will eventually lead to the establishment of new myths around these archetypes. As myths are regarded as the source of collective experiences, analyzing how women have rewritten, revised, devised, and originated myths would thus permit women to reclaim the power to name, and hence to influence the so-called reality established by the patriarchy.

Abstract:
This thesis uses archetypal theory as explained by Carol Pearson in The Hero Within: Six Archetypes We Live By to illustrate the heroic journey undertaken by the protagonist in Edna St. Vincent Millay's poem "Renascence." Feminist archetypal theory is a useful lens for gaining the reader access to the underlying paradigms of struggle experienced by the female literary character because it exposes the parallels that exist in separate female experiences. By applying Pearson's theory to Millay's work, readers are able to elucidate more clearly the methods used by the poet to create commonality and continuity with her female audience. Throughout the poem, the protagonist hero recursively circles through the Innocent, Orphan, Martyr, Wanderer, Warrior, and Magician phases. This essay utilizes a close reading strategy to illustrate its argument and provide evidence to its conclusions.

Abstract:
Significant passages in Alice Walker's writings give evidence of archetypal patterns from Carl Jung and feminine archetypal patterns from Annis Pratt. Since a knowledge of archetypal patterns can influence the total understanding of aspects of Walker's writings, a study of these patterns in the undergraduate classroom benefits the student and opens up another system of analyzing writings, particularly writings by African-American women.

Abstract:
Le dialogue entre la pratique et la théorie est la base de cette étude. Le défi est la réflexion à trois niveaux: la création de numéros et de spectacles par le jeu du clown; la recherche de sa théorie; et les expérimentations pédagogiques. L'interrogation sur le clown a commencé au Brésil et s'est déroulée dans quatre pays européens à travers des spectacles, des résidences artistiques, des ateliers et des rencontres avec des artistes à partir de la Cia da Bobagem. Le clown est une figure populaire et banale à la fois, mais il y a des traces primitives de son jeu. Cette étude met l'accent sur cet art sous de nombreux aspects: ses principes, son histoire, ses artistes, sa pratique interculturelle, sa liberté, sa poésie, son incompréhension et ses métamorphoses au fil du temps. C'est une invitation à voyager ensemble dans un monde paradoxalement très proche mais toujours mystérieux. La première partie aborde le parcours artistique du chercheur influencé par la recherche e sa curiosité théorique. Ce sont 15 ans de vie clownesque vécu au Brésil et intensifié en Europe avec la création de quatre spectacles et la réalisation de plusieurs cours de clowns à Bruxelles. La rentrée au Brésil est étudiée à partir des projets subventionés. La deuxième partie montre un esquisse théorique sur le clown du XVIe jusqu’aujourd’hui : dès les moralités aux clowns actuels. L’etymologie du mot clown ouvre ce chapitre qui fait une possible relation du trickster et du clown. La troisième partie fait une réflexion sur le jeu comme un outil d’apprentissage du clown. Il y a la tentative de met en lumière les principes du jeu clownesque et les élements pédagogiques appliqué dans la Cia da Bobagem. Pour conclure, la thèse essaye de montrer que la pratique du clown permet une intégration professionnelle et que la théorie peut amplifier la conception du clown à travers la psychologie, l’anthropologie et l’histoire. La transmission du jeu clownesque par la pédagogie du plaisir peut être l’autre façon de jouer et de transmettre le clown au-delà de la souffrance
The dialogue between practice and theory is the basis of this study. The challenge is the reflection in three levels: the creation of numbers and shows by the play of clown; the investigation of clown theory; and the pedagogy experimentations. The interrogation about clown began in Brazil and came to four European countries through performances, artistic residences, workshops and meetings with artists by Cia da Bobagem group. The clown is a popular and a banal figure at the same time, but there are primitive traces of his play. This work explores this art by many aspects: his principles, his history, his artists, his intercultural practice, his freedom, his poetry, his incomprehension, and his metamorphoses over time. It is an invitation to travel together in a world paradoxically very near, but still mysterious. The first part shows the artistc journey of the researcher influenced by the research and theoretical curiosity. These are fifteen years of clown lived in Brazil and intensified in Europe with the creation of four shows and the realization of several clown classes in Brussels. The return to Brazil is studied from funded projects. The second part opens on the etymology of the word clown opens this chapter which makes a possible relation of the trickster and the clown, than indicates a theoretical sketch about the clown from the sixteen century to the present day: from morality to actual clowns. The third part is about the game as a learning tool of the clown. There is the attempt to highlight the principles of the clown game and the pedagogical elements applied in Cia da Bobagem. The thesis shows that the practice of clowning allows a professional integration, that the theory amplifies the conception of clown through psychology, anthropology and history, and that the transmission of the clown game by the pedagogy of pleasure can be the other way to play and transmit the clown beyond suffering

Abstract:
Aquesta tesi investiga la construcció i desenvolupament dels personatges femenins a l´obra de Doris Lessing, considerant especialment la relació personal que estableixen amb el concepte de maternitat. El capítol 1 ofereix una revisió dels diferents enfocaments existents sobre l’escriptura de Doris Lessing, i també un repàs al seu context cultural i teòric, parant atenció a la psicoanàlisi i el feminisme i especialment, dins d´aquests camps d´estudi, a la psicoanàlisi Junguiana i Lacaniana i al feminisme post-Lacanià. A més, també planteja la qüestió de la figura materna a la novel·la postmoderna i el lloc que hi ocupa. El cos de l’estudi analitza cinc personatges representatius del cànon de Lessing, que daten de diferents períodes de la seva carrera. Cada figura ocupa un capítol separat de la tesi, que es centra en el seu desenvolupament intern: així, el capítol 2 examina la Mary Turner (The Grass is Singing, 1950); el capítol 3, l’Anna Wulf (The Golden Notebook, 1962); el capítol 4, la Kate Brown (The Summer Before the Dark, 1973); el capítol 5, la Harriet Lovatt (The Fifth Child, 1988); i el capítol 6, l’Emily McVeagh (Alfred and Emily, 2008). Es proposa una lectura Junguiana tot analitzant el procés d’individuació que els personatges proven d´assolir per tal d’adquirir una identitat plena. Amb aquest objectiu, es descriuen i s’interpreten diferents conjunts d’arquetips Junguians presents en les novel·les segons el paper que juguen en l’evolució de les protagonistes. Cal afegir que s’examinen altres conceptes psicoanalítics fonamentals, tals com la influència Lacaniana subjacent que s’evidencia en la recreació de l’estadi del mirall, o en la importància de nocions com “l’abjecció” de Julia Kristeva. Alguns motius textuals com els somnis, els records, les fantasies i la imaginació dels personatges resulten centrals per a la discussió. En l’última secció, després de l’anàlisi de les cinc novel·les, s’estableix un fil conductor entre elles pel que fa a la construcció de la identitat. A més, queda justificat l´ús de les teories psicoanalítiques de Jung i (en menor mesura) Lacan com a base per a una lectura, ja que permet aclarir aquest procés de construcció i evolució. D’altra banda, aquest marc teòric permet treure conclusions sobre les diferents reinterpretacions de l’arquetip de la mare per part de Lessing i, com a conseqüència, sobre el lloc que la maternitat ocupa a la literatura contemporània. Finalment, el concepte de circularitat es treballa especialment, a diferents nivells: primer, com a estructura que conforma cadascuna de les novel·les pel que fa a la forma i al contingut, com a mode de creació artística associada al mite i als símbols, o com a patró general de tota l’obra de Lessing.
The present thesis investigates the construction and development of Doris Lessing’s female characters, taking into account their personal relationship with their potential motherhood. Chapter 1 offers a review of the different approaches to the writing of Doris Lessing, as well as an overview of its cultural and theoretical background, focusing on psychoanalysis and feminism, and, most especially, on Jungian and Lacanian psychoanalysis, and post-Lacanian feminism. In addition, the question of the mother figure in the postmodern novel and the place it occupies is also raised. The body of the study analyses five representative characters of Lessing’s canon, dating from different stages in her career. Each figure occupies a separate chapter in the thesis, which focuses on internal development: chapter 2 examines Mary Turner (The Grass is Singing, 1950); chapter 3, Anna Wulf (The Golden Notebook, 1962); chapter4, Kate Brown (The Summer Before the Dark, 1973); chapter 5, Harriet Lovatt (The Fifth Child, 1988); and chapter 6, Emily McVeagh (Alfred and Emily, 2008). A Jungian reading is offered by analysing the individuation process they are trying to undergo as characters trying to achieve a full identity. In order to do so, different sets of Jungian archetypes present in the novels are outlined and interpreted according to their role in the evolution of the protagonists. Moreover, other prevalent psychoanalytic concepts are examined, such as the underlying Lacanian influence made evident by the recreation of the mirror stage, or the importance of such notions as Kristevan “abjection”. Some textual details as dreams, memories, fantasies and imagination of the characters are central to the discussion. In the last section, after the analysis of the five novels, a common thread is established among them in terms of identity building. Moreover, the psychoanalytic theories of Jung and (to a lesser degree) Lacan as a basis for a reading is justified as they clarify this process of construction and development. In addition, this theoretical framework allows for conclusions on Lessing’s different reinterpretations of the mother archetype, and, subsequently, the place of motherhood in contemporary literature is reinterpreted according to Lessing’s work. Finally, special mention is made to circularity, at different levels; namely: as the structure that underlies each of the novels either formally or conceptually, as a mode of artistic creation associated with myth and symbol, and as the general pattern of Lessing’s entire career.
