O'Sullivan, N. "Early Greek concepts of rhetorical style." Thesis, University of Cambridge, 1986. http://ethos.bl.uk/OrderDetails.do?uin=uk.bl.ethos.233320.

Abstract:
The central argument of this dissertation is that the origins of the stylistic classification found in ancient rhetorical theory can be discerned already in texts before the time of Theophrastus. The introductory first chapter sets out the ancient concept of style, and argues that Aristophanes' portrayal of poets in the Frogs shows a dichotomy which has much in common with later stylistic classifications. Points of contact between Sophists and those poets are used to suggest that a similar division of orators at the time may have been plausible. The second chapter is an examination of the controversy between Alcidamas and Isocrates. The style of Alcidamas is discussed, particularly in relation to that of his teacher Gorgias. Alcidamas' speech on extemporaneous and written speeches is then compared with the opinions of Isocrates, Plato and Aristotle on different styles of speaking, and it is argued that all four share a common conceptual framework, which has significant points of contact with Aristophanes' stylistic division of poets. The third chapter examines the Contest of Homer and Hesiod, which has long been thought to have been based on an earlier version by Alcidamas. Possible traces of his influence are suggested, particularly in view of his stylistic conflict with Isocrates. The fourth chapter discusses Aristophanes' descriptions of orators. In the light of his criticism of poets (seen in the Introduction) and the rhetorical controversies shown in the second and third chapters, it is argued that he imposes the same basic division on rhetorical as on poetic style. In the Conclusion, after a brief summary of findings and some suggestions of their implications, a new reading of Prodicus' Choice of Herakles is ventured. Using what has been seen of early critical language and imagery, as well as the preferences of second generation Sophists, it is argued that the fable may be viewed as a stylistic allegory, which shows Prodicus' style in contrast with that of Gorgias.

Abstract:
Green infrastructure offers a contemporary approach to the conceptualisation and management of landscape resources. It has developed rapidly in the UK, Europe and North America as a result of the opportunities it has provided in meeting the ecological, economic and social challenges of spatial planning. The attention given to growth in green infrastructure has been supported by the development of a number of overarching principles – principles that provide green infrastructure research with a multilayered understanding of the changing nature of landscape resources. This thesis outlines the complex nature of green infrastructure development, its meanings, its perception and use as an approach to landscape planning. Three key themes are identified. Firstly, by exploring variations in the meanings of green infrastructure this thesis presents an examination of its conceptual development to date. The second explores the role of perceptions in the value and use of green infrastructure resources. It examines the role of ecological, psychological and social constructions of green infrastructure and assesses how these affect personal and communal landscape interpretations. The final theme discusses current green infrastructure use by practitioners. The varied nuances of green infrastructure are outlined and an assessment is given of how the principles of green infrastructure have been translated into appropriate landscape management. Each of these themes explores the relationships between green infrastructure principles, its perceptions (by users), and its use in practice (spatial planning). The themes developed in this thesis identify a number of conceptual and implementation principles for green infrastructure. The roles of integrated planning policy, strategic thinking, multi-functionality, connectivity, and access are discussed in order to highlight the different forms that green infrastructure research has taken. Based on these discussions, this thesis proposes that a green infrastructure approach to planning can be used to meet the complex challenges of current landscape planning. With continued development of green infrastructure, some of the most pressing issues in planning, such as green space planning or sustainable urban development, can be discussed. These issues are discussed throughout the thesis and clear links are made between this exploratory green infrastructure research and planning practice.

Abstract:
É alarmante a velocidade à qual o mundo à nossa volta está mudando, e é impossível negar que uma das correntes que impulsiona esta mudança no consumo são as preocupações ambientais e a antecipação do estrago que se fez no mundo. Os consumidores estão todos os dias, e todos os minutos, cada vez mais conscientes que se nós continuarmos a consumir ao ritmo de hoje o futuro do nosso mundo não será feliz. Contudo, não existe certeza de como os consumidores agem sobre esta realidade, e até que ponto cada um se importa com este facto. Somos todos diferentes, independentemente da nossa cultura, da nossa criação ou da nossa idade, cada pessoa está marcada pela sua personalidade distinta formada pelos seus valores que por sua vez definem as suas decisões diárias. Conseguimos perceber valores diferentes nas marcas que nos rodeiam, elas são também uma ferramenta de comunicação para o mundo, que reflete quem cada pessoa é, e quem quer ser. Esta pesquisa procura entender se as compras verdes são influenciadas pelos seus próprios valores e os valores que percebem da marca, e até que ponto são moderadas pelos valores verdes de cada individuo. Esta pesquisa foi realizada dentro de um contexto de uma marca de surfe, Quiksilver, pois estes tipos de marcas já mostraram ser ecológicas e têm uma reputação de inspirar consciência ambiental nos consumidores. Este modelo foi testado usando um estudo empírico executado online disponível a habitantes dos Estados Unidos, seguido de uma análise fatorial e modelação de equações estruturais. Foi possível mostrar um efeito moderador dos valores verdes em intenção de compra nas dimensões de abertura à mudança e Auto transcendência. Foi possível mostrar, também, que compras verdes podem ocorrer por distinção social, como foi o caso da dimensão de auto valorização. Este estudo pretende contribuir para a teoria de valores pessoais e comportamento do consumidor, dentro do âmbito de assuntos ambientais, e espera permitir uma melhor compreensão do futuro de comportamento do consumidor.
It is alarming the pace at which the world around us is changing, and it is undeniable that the currents that bring change towards consumption are the environmental issues and worries that we have inflicted upon the world. Consumers are every day more conscious that if we consume at the rate and way of nowadays our world will not have a bright future. However, doubt remains to what extent we as consumers act upon this, and to what point we care. Everyone is different, independent of culture, upbringing or age, everyone has a distinct personality moulded by values that define everyday decisions. We can also perceive different values from brands around us, they are a tool of our communication to the world and we reflect who we are, and who we want to be, on the brands we carry. This research aimed to understand if green purchases were influenced by each individual’s green values, and to what extent their own personal values and the values they perceived from a brand were relevant. This was done in the context of a surf brand, Quiksilver, because these brands have shown to be ecological and have a reputation of inspiring ecological consciousness on consumers. The model was tested by holding an empirical study with an online survey available to residents in the United States of America, and then applying factorial analysis and structural equation modelling. It was possible to show the moderation effect that green values have on purchase intention, in some value dimensions namely openness to change and selftranscendence. It was also possible to show that green purchases may occur for social distinction, as was the case with self-enhancement. This study aimed to contribute to values theory and consumer behaviour, within environmental issues, and allow for a better understanding of the future of consumer behaviour.

Abstract:
Over the past decades, the fast-changing global climate poses a significant challenge to many cities around the world to embrace resilience concepts, whereby a safe-to-fail planning approach replaces traditional fail-safe practices. The change in perspectives has seen an increase in climate-adapted infrastructural projects being integrated with the new urban planning agendas across the world. The investigation conducted was designed to understand the process of how resilience concepts travel between different cities, by investigating the actors who move policy knowledge, their roles in it, as well as the knowledge transfer process mechanism that is responsible for the movement of such policies. The investigation took advantage of a scoping study technique to answer the research questions, using mostly secondary data and an interview to verify the secondary sources. The findings and the discussion provided insights on who is involved in resilience policies and how these policies are transferred from one place to another. The investigation uncovered the influence policy mobilizers has on the movement of policy knowledge, as well as how the mobilization of policy knowledge can both be beneficial or detrimental, depending on the way it was moved or implemented.
Under de senaste decennierna utgör det snabba föränderliga globala klimatet en betydande utmaning för många städer runt om i världen med att anamma motståndskraftskoncept, där en planeringsstrategi med säkerhet att misslyckas ersätter traditionella felsäkra metoder. Förändringen i perspektiv har ökat klimatanpassade infrastrukturprojekten som integrerats med nya stadsplaneringsagendorna över hela världen. Studien genomfördes för att få en förståelse av hur motståndskraftskonceptet färdas mellan olika städer och detta genomfördes genom att undersöka de aktörer som förflyttar politisk kunskap och deras roller i den samt den kunskapsöverföringsmekanism som är ansvarig för rörelsen av sådan politik. Studien utnyttjade en scoping-studieteknik för att få svar på forskningsfrågorna, med mestadels sekundär data och en intervju för att verifiera sekundärkällorna. Resultaten och diskussionen gav insikter om vem som är inblandad i motståndskraft och hur policy överförs från en plats till en annan. Studien avslöjade även inflytande av politiskt mobilisering och kunskap som både kan vara fördelaktig eller skadlig beroende på hur den flyttades eller genomfördes.

Abstract:
Over the last decades, the growing evidence of human-caused climate change has raised awareness of the consequences of exceeding global temperature by 2˚C. This awareness has led to a contemporary approach to the conceptualization and management of green adaptation policies in spatial planning. This thesis aims to develop a comprehensive methodology for assessing the adaptability of existing neighborhoods to green strategies. The reliability of the proposed method is examined in the cities of Bologna and Imola and proved to be applicable in other geoghraphical locations. This thesis integrates three key themes of conceptual and implementation principles for urban green adaptation. This thesis initially defines methods for narrowing uncertainties in urban planning energy forecasting modeling by exploring the roles of integrated energy planning. The second is by exploring green retrofitting strategies in building, this thesis examines the effects of various energy-saving factors in roofing scenarios including a green roof, rooftop greenhouse, and insolated roof. Lastly, this thesis analyzes green strategies in urban spaces to enhance thermal comfort through facing urban heat exposure related to urban heat island effects. The roles of integrated energy policies and green strategic thinking are discussed to highlight various aspects of green adaptation on the neighborhood scale. This thesis develops approaches by which cities can face the challenges of current green urban planning and connect the conceptual and practical aspects of green spatial planning. Another point that this thesis highlight is that due to the interdependency of individuals and places, it is difficult to assure whether all the adaptation policies on a large scale are enhancing the resiliency of the neighborhood or they are simply shuffling the vulnerability through the individuals and places. Besides, it asserts that neglecting to reflect on these reallocations of the effects generates serious complications, and will result in long-term dysfunctional consequences.

Research Question: How can environmental concern, exposure to green marketing and green scepticism influence young consumers’ green purchase decisions?   Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to investigate how young consumers’ green purchase decisions can be influenced by their environmental concern, exposure to green marketing and lastly, green scepticism. It will be analysed if consumers are now overexposed to green marketing, whether there is an action/awareness gap, and lastly, the number of green consumers in the sample will be established.   Method: Primary data was collected through a quantitative research method, via a self-completion online questionnaire. The chosen sample was Swedes, aged 18-30 and consisted of 140 respondents. IBM SPSS Statistics was used for the statistical tests undertaken such as Cronbach’s Alpha, Chi-square, Pearson’s correlation and Regression analysis.   Conclusion: Environmental concern and green scepticism were found to have a significant influence on the young Swedish consumers’ green purchase decision. A great deal of the sample possessed environmental concern, and it was found to influence their green purchase decision positively. The participants were not sceptical of green marketing, and green scepticism was found to significantly and negatively influence their green purchases. Finally, the young Swedes were minimally underexposed to green marketing with a slight negative, but insignificant, influence on green purchase decisions.

Abstract:
BackgroundThe biggest issue of our time is the environmental damage we have caused. Publics are becomingincreasingly aware of this challenge: environmental concern has risen. This change toward greenvalues is commonly referred to as “greening of society”. Having generally been considered theenvironmental villains, companies are now also seen as the solution to the environmentalproblem. More and more companies are going green as they have realized the potential of greeninnovations to yield competitive advantages. Therefore, a greening of the business domain canalso be observed. However, only little research has been conducted on why and howenvironmental issues are integrated into the development of new products. Considering thatchemical companies are the epitome of the environmental villains, investigating the case of amanufacturer of branded chemical goods that has been the market leader in the highly contesteddetergent market for more than a century – despite or even because of – pursuing an ecoleadershipstrategy becomes more intriguing.AimThe aim of this study is to investigate the how and part of the why of integrating environmentalissues into product development by analyzing and discussing Henkel’s environmentallycompatible product innovations and their relation to the greening of society.MethodThe method of choice is content analysis. Drawing on secondary data, the research strategy isqualitative and the design is longitudinal while the approach is descriptive and idiographic.ResultsSocietal values and Henkel’s product portfolio seem to move in the same direction as both havebecome greener and greener ever since the 1970s. However, concluding that the portfolio changesas a response to the value change is premature, especially because the innovations are often theresult of decades of research and development. Also, the portfolio has not become greener at anincreasing pace because the corporate goals have changed. Rather, the greening progress has beenaccelerated by technological progress. While over the years Henkel’s innovations have offeredgreen benefits at an increasing proportion, this development is not strongly reflected inadvertisement. Until recently green values have – if at all – only been addressed rather as an aside;the most emphasis has always been on performance. While the latest positioning of innovations astruly green indicates that promotional strategy now acknowledges that preserving the environmenthas become a mainstream value, societal value change has been more strongly reflected inadvertisement in terms of values associated with convenience rather than with the environmentand sustainability.

O programa de Pós-Graduação em Estudos Literários apresenta convênio acadêmico internacional visando à preparação de teses e dissertações e a dupla titulação
Resumo: Na primeira metade do século XX, E. R. Dodds não apenas estimulou novas perspectivas com o livro The Greeks and the irrational (1953), como tornou-se referência aos futuros estudiosos ao discutir o conceito de ἄτη na Ilíada. Extremamente complexo, o vocábulo ἄτη designa, em primeira instância, um estágio de cegueira do pensamento humano e, mais tarde, a própria desgraça consumada. Suzanne Saïd (1978), acrescenta que, posteriormente, na tragédia clássica, o conceito passaria a fazer referência a toda sorte de infortúnios. Foi R. Doyle (1984) quem fez a análise do conceito em todas as tragédias clássicas, apenas tentando estabelecer seus diferentes sentidos. Dessa forma, a presente tese tem por objetivo defender que o conceito de ἄτη, ao longo da tragédia clássica grega, no século V a.C., passa por mudanças, assumindo diferentes acepções de acordo com o contexto apresentado, podendo, inclusive, ter perdido seu sentido original, aquele que a épica e toda a literatura anterior registravam. Para além disso, ao estar unido a outros termos, o conceito de ἄτη ganha novos contornos e significados diferentes, o que impede que sua tradução seja fixada em um único campo semântico. Daí a proposta, também, de pontuar que sua tradução respeite o uso adequado feito em cada uma das tragédias por seus autores. Para tanto, a tese perpassa todas as tragédias clássicas de Ésquilo Sófocles e Eurípides em que o vocábulo está presente (vinte e oito), nas quais o termo indica mudança ou acréscimo de valor semântico, fato este que será fundamentado na análise da transformação de pensamento do homem grego que, ao longo do século V, passou por mudanças extremas, desde a fundação da democracia e a vitória contra os persas, até o fim da Guerra do Peloponeso, com a queda do poderio ateniense e o desenvolvimento do pensamento racional
Abstract: In the first half of the twentieth century, E. R. Dodds not only stimulated new perspectives through the book The Greeks and the irrational (1953), but also has become the benchmark for future scholars to discuss the concept of ἄτη in the Iliad. Extremely complex, the word ἄτη means in the first instance a blinding stage of human thought and, later, the very accomplished disgrace. Suzanne Saïd (1978) adds that later in classical tragedy, the concept would refer to all sorts of misfortunes. It was R. Doyle (1984) who analyzed the concept in all classical tragedies, just trying to establish its different meanings. Thus, this thesis aims to defend that the concept of ἄτη, along the classical Greek tragedy in the fifth century BC, undergoes changes, assuming different meanings according to the context presented, and may even have lost its original meaning, that the epic and all previous literature recorded. In addition, being united with other terms, the concept of ἄτη achieves new contours and different meanings, which prevents its translation to be fixed at a single semantic field. Hence the proposal, also, to point out that the translation respects the proper use made in each of the tragedies by their authors. Therefore, the argument permeates all the classic tragedies of Aeschylus, Sophocles and Euripides in which the word is present (twenty-eight), in which the term indicates change or addition of semantic value, a fact that will be based on the analysis of the transformation of thought of the Greek man, along the fifth century, underwent extreme changes from the foundation of democracy and the victory against the Persians, until the end of the Peloponnesian War, the fall of the Athenian power and the development of rational thought

Abstract:
In 2016, it is no longer possible to deny the existence of global warming and its harmful effects on our planet and the environment. Not only experts, but also consumers, have become increasingly concerned about the environment. This increased awareness and concern has increased consumers’ interest in purchasing environmentally friendly food products, and has caused companies to focus on programs intent on reducing their environmental impact and helping the environment. Companies have introduced more environmentally friendly food products, accessible on a large scale, and have changed their communication to focus more on green products and green product attributes. Scandinavian countries have some of the largest numbers of organic food consumers in Europe and the world, with the Swedish organic food industry measuring the highest growth rate in organic food sales in 2015. Therefore, this study focuses on the Swedish green food industry. A major way for companies to make consumers aware of their available environmentally friendly food products is through green advertising. An increasingly frequent problem, however, is that consumers tend to distrust these green ads. They have knowledge of green washing practices and misleading information in green advertising. In this thesis, the relationships between green consumerism, green washing and green advertising skepticism were investigated. The potential relationship between demographic factors such as gender, age, income and level and area of study, and green advertising skepticism were tested as well. A research model with three main hypotheses was used in this thesis. The results showed a significant relationship between green consumerism and green advertising skepticism when green washing was a moderator. There was also a significant negative relationship between attitude towards green products and green advertising skepticism and a positive relationship between environmental concern and green advertising skepticism. There existed no significant relationship between the tested demographic factors and green advertising skepticism in the Swedish green food industry.

Abstract:
Green marketing is, in a sense, an oxymoron in that it merges the seemingly contradictory concepts of marketing, which focuses on facilitating and encouraging consumption, and environmental concern, which focuses on environmental conservation. Green advertising represents an important marketing tool for communicating an organisation’s green image and is the driving force behind fostering environmental awareness and environmentally friendly behaviour. As with any type of advertising, an important determinant of the success of green advertising is consumers‟ attitudes towards green advertising and corresponding environmental concerns and behaviour. The last decade has shown a staggering number of marketers targeting the green segment of the population with green advertising, with increasing green advertisements manufacturers are informing their customers about the pro-environmental characteristics of their products and services. Green advertising is an essential tool in an organisation’s overall environmental marketing strategy; one which possibly leads to achieving superior performance and assists in creating a sustainable competitive edge. An in-depth understanding of the relevant consumer behavioural aspects of a target market is tantamount to formulating successful marketing strategies. This holds true with the formulating of green marketing advertising strategies, which aim at encouraging consumption in an environmentally sustainable manner. There is a dearth of published literature on the South African Generation Y‟s consumer behaviour in general and none that specifically focuses on the environmental concern, attitudes towards green advertising and environmental behaviour of the significantly sized black Generation Y cohort. The Generation Y cohort is defined as individuals born between 1986 and 2005. In terms of South Africa, Generation Y individuals accounted for 40 percent of the South African population, with black Generation Y individuals making up 84 percent of this generational cohort. In addition, the black Generation Y cohort of South Africa makes up approximately 33 percent of the whole population, resulting in a highly attractive market segment. Individuals attaining tertiary qualifications are of particular interest to marketers since they are likely to enjoy higher earnings and a higher social status, which together is likely to make them opinion leaders amongst their peers. The primary objective of this study was to investigate black Generation Y students‟ environmental concern, attitudes towards green advertising and environmental behaviour within the South African context. The target population of the study was defined as full-time black Generation Y students, aged between 18-24 years, enrolled at South African registered public higher education institutions (HEIs). The sampling frame comprised the 23 registered South African public HEIs. Using a judgement sampling method, this was narrowed down to four HEIs located in the Gauteng Province - two of which are country-based and two of which are city-based. For this study, a convenience sample of 400 full-time black Generation Y students who were enrolled at these four South African HEIs during 2012 was drawn. The relevant primary data was obtained using a self-administered questionnaire. Lecturers at each of the four HEIs were contacted and requested to distribute the questionnaire to their students either during class or after class. The self-administered questionnaire was hand delivered to these lecturers. The questionnaire requested respondents to indicate on a five-point Likert scale the extent of their agreement/disagreement with items designed to measure their environmental concerns, their attitudes towards green advertising as well as their current environmental behaviour patterns. In addition, the students were asked to provide certain demographic data. The findings of this study indicate that South African black Generation Y students are environmentally concerned, have a positive attitude towards green advertising and report behaving in a pro-environmental manner. Previous research found gender to be a significant factor in displaying concerns for the environment. However, this study determined that gender played no significant role towards the black South African Generation Y cohort environmental concerns and attitudes. Similarly, the study found no significant difference between black Generation Y students who were based at city HEIs and black Generation Y students who were based at countryside HEIs. Insights gained from this study will help both marketing academics and practitioners understand current black Generation Y consumer attitudes towards environmental concerns, green advertising attitudes and the significance of their pro-environmental behaviour.

Abstract:
This social anthropological thesis reports on fieldwork in a coenobitic Orthodox monastery on Mount Athos. In Part I the thesis is concerned with metanoia - repentance from sins. Penthos, mourning, is a personal condition of extreme sobriety in which both laughter and anger are avoided, and repentance must be expressed in word and posture if ever anger is shown. But tacitly, there can be a competitive element in seeking pardon. If a monk weeps, this is seen as a gift - charisma - from God, and this is most likely to be conferred on senior and notably devout monks. Part II is concerned with the transition from the newcomer status through to three higher degrees of spiritual maturity. This progress is marked both by transitional rituals, such as tonsure, and the formal donning of robes which signify higher stages. The insights of Van Gennep are helpftil in appreciating the general transition from the secular to a more spiritual condition, and in appreciating particular rituals. But the condition of spiritual vulnerability is not captured by either a particular rite, or practices in a particular place. The fuller understanding of passage requires Seremetakis' wider and more flexible approach, expressed in the concept of "ritualization". She directs our attention away from the specificity of any particular rite, to the wider context of fragmented social experiences, and understandings which are precipitates of an unstable flow of ordinary social events. Part ifi deals with the problems presented by parastaseis - representations - or, more simply, memories of secular life. Monks should have utterly renounced their secular affections to their consanguineal kin. Nor should they be proud of their previous communities of origin, or educational attainments. In principle, the value of humility - tapeinosis - should reign. But here is a further context for inequality to occur. For the minority of monks who have been previously married, no matter how they struggle to obliterate memories of their attachments to wives or children - are deemed to be in an inherently inferior condition to those whose purity has never been compromised by sexual congress, or procreative pride. The thesis concludes with the observation that Turner's concept of an inherently egalitarian communitas is not supported by the monastery. Rather, Dumont's proposal that in all religious value commitments, there are inevitably implicit rank differences, fmds support. Just as the monks in their own eyes are spiritually superior to the laity, so within the community of monks, the nevermarried are ranked in their own eyes above the pandremenoi, the "married" monks. In a substantial Appendix, the monastic naming system is examined within the framework of suggestions from Levi-Strauss, and against the contrast medium of previous Greek ethnography.

Na primeira metade do século XX, E. R. Dodds não apenas estimulou novas perspectivas com o livro The Greeks and the irrational (1953), como tornou-se referência aos futuros estudiosos ao discutir o conceito de ἄτη na Ilíada. Extremamente complexo, o vocábulo ἄτη designa, em primeira instância, um estágio de cegueira do pensamento humano e, mais tarde, a própria desgraça consumada. Suzanne Saïd (1978), acrescenta que, posteriormente, na tragédia clássica, o conceito passaria a fazer referência a toda sorte de infortúnios. Foi R. Doyle (1984) quem fez a análise do conceito em todas as tragédias clássicas, apenas tentando estabelecer seus diferentes sentidos. Dessa forma, a presente tese tem por objetivo defender que o conceito de ἄτη, ao longo da tragédia clássica grega, no século V a.C., passa por mudanças, assumindo diferentes acepções de acordo com o contexto apresentado, podendo, inclusive, ter perdido seu sentido original, aquele que a épica e toda a literatura anterior registravam. Para além disso, ao estar unido a outros termos, o conceito de ἄτη ganha novos contornos e significados diferentes, o que impede que sua tradução seja fixada em um único campo semântico. Daí a proposta, também, de pontuar que sua tradução respeite o uso adequado feito em cada uma das tragédias por seus autores. Para tanto, a tese perpassa todas as tragédias clássicas de Ésquilo Sófocles e Eurípides em que o vocábulo está presente (vinte e oito), nas quais o termo indica mudança ou acréscimo de valor semântico, fato este que será fundamentado na análise da transformação de pensamento do homem grego que, ao longo do século V, passou por mudanças extremas, desde a fundação da democracia e a vitória contra os persas, até o fim da Guerra do Peloponeso, com a queda do poderio ateniense e o desenvolvimento do pensamento racional
In the first half of the twentieth century, E. R. Dodds not only stimulated new perspectives through the book The Greeks and the irrational (1953), but also has become the benchmark for future scholars to discuss the concept of ἄτη in the Iliad. Extremely complex, the word ἄτη means in the first instance a blinding stage of human thought and, later, the very accomplished disgrace. Suzanne Saïd (1978) adds that later in classical tragedy, the concept would refer to all sorts of misfortunes. It was R. Doyle (1984) who analyzed the concept in all classical tragedies, just trying to establish its different meanings. Thus, this thesis aims to defend that the concept of ἄτη, along the classical Greek tragedy in the fifth century BC, undergoes changes, assuming different meanings according to the context presented, and may even have lost its original meaning, that the epic and all previous literature recorded. In addition, being united with other terms, the concept of ἄτη achieves new contours and different meanings, which prevents its translation to be fixed at a single semantic field. Hence the proposal, also, to point out that the translation respects the proper use made in each of the tragedies by their authors. Therefore, the argument permeates all the classic tragedies of Aeschylus, Sophocles and Euripides in which the word is present (twenty-eight), in which the term indicates change or addition of semantic value, a fact that will be based on the analysis of the transformation of thought of the Greek man, along the fifth century, underwent extreme changes from the foundation of democracy and the victory against the Persians, until the end of the Peloponnesian War, the fall of the Athenian power and the development of rational thought

Abstract:
This study explores the relationship between fascism, fascist ideas, and environmental consciousness in Britain during the pre- and post-World War II decades. In examining this topic, two main questions arise. First, why did fascist intellectuals support environmentally conscious ideas, and how did they relate these positions to their political ideologies? Second, why were many environmentally conscious thinkers during this period attracted to fascism? This thesis will also address several related issues regarding fascism and environmental consciousness. These issues include what role environmental concerns played in the British Union of Fascist’s platforms and in fascism’s public appeal, and how that role changed as the party’s needs and goals changed. This project also addresses how former members of the BUF drew attention to environmental issues after World War II, and how such ideas related to broader environmental discussions taking place in Britain at the time.

Abstract:
Operabyggnaden placeras längst ut på piren och tar hela dess udde i anspråk. Operan riktar sig mot staden. Byggnadens storlek och koncept kräver viss rymd och ljus runt sig varför valet av plats blev naturligt.  Den stora operavolymen skärs itu i flera delar och de olika volymerna binds sedan samman av en stålkonstruktion som på vissa ställen fungerar som ett orangeri medan den på andra ställen är en öppen pergolastruktur. Växtligheten används som ett material och ger intressanta rum, skuggspel och klimat. Orangeriet/pergolan löper igenom och runt byggnaden och såväl personal som besökare rör sig på gångar genom orangeriet/pergolan och upplever olika typer av rum, på olika nivåer.  En önskan med uppdelningen i flera volymer är dels för att få in ljus på ett vackert sätt i en annars djup och mörk byggnad, dels för att försöka bryta ner skalan, samt även för att kunna ge personalen bra arbetsmöjligheter. Slutligen finns även en önskan om en mer transparent verksamhet.

Abstract:
Construction industry is based on the evaluation of building environmental impact. The current situation shows buildings reaching high standards in the field of environmental sustainability, but they often neglect occupants' satisfaction. The International Well Building Institute (IWBI) has released a new building standard called WELL, whose aim is to create sustainable buildings paying attention to occupants' health and well-being. The goal of this thesis is to understand what does WELL add to existent building certification systems. There is a large number of certification systems, green codes, green standards and several other kinds of documents that influence the way in which designers think and develop their projects. A research background is carried out to identify their requirements and fields of applicability. The innovative concepts proposed by the IWBI, need to interface with requirements from different regulations or certifications. The gap analysis performed in this work highlights which are the gaps and the overlaps between WELL and Swedish building regulations (BBR), Miljöbyggnad, BREEAM-SE and LEED-IT. The White Arkitekter's office in Stockholm, known as Katsan and certified with Miljöbyggnad Gold, is used as a case study to have a more specific approach to the problem than the general approach provided with the gap analysis. The report shows significant gaps between WELL and the other regulations and certifications, which are reduced when considering the case study. The outcomes for the different standards have been compared and they have evidenced some innovative features present only in WELL. These features answer to the research question and underline what WELL adds to sustainability concepts.

Abstract:
Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited
One of the most important yet insufficiently researched dynamics of the European Union (EU) concerns its effectiveness in accommodating the security concerns of its members. With NATO dominating the collective security market of the old continent, the launch of the Common Security and Defense Policy (CSDP) in 1999 generated an interesting security option, and silently partitioned the NATO members of the EU into a "euro-atlanticist" and a "euro-continentalist" group, with the nonduplication of NATO being the point of contention. With Greece's major security concern deriving from Turkey, a fellow NATO member, Athens holds a firm position in the latter group, seeking to turn the evolving European defense project into a counterweight to NATO in guaranteeing Greek national security. While Greek security priorities have remained remarkably consistent, the ambitious European defense project has undergone various fluctuations, reflecting the awkward development in its evolution. As a consequence, Greece's anticipations of a CSDP commitment in its national security concerns have oscillated accordingly: periods of positive signs succeeded periods of disillusionment and vice versa. Against this background, this paper attempts to elucidate Greek perceptions of its security providers and aims to give an answer to the following question: Are Greek security concerns reflected in the CSDP? In other words, is the EU an adequate security provider for Greece? This thesis argues that the territorial security concerns of the EU's member-states, especially those of Greece, cannot be fully assuaged under the CSDP auspices. More specifically, the CSDP does not adequately address Greek national interests, if defending these interests entails a European military response.

Full text
Abstract:
Scholarship on Archaic and Classical Greek lamps has traditionally been in the form of typological studies and catalogues. This dissertation represents an alternative to such works, offering a fuller picture of the function of lamps in Greek life. Incorporating archaeological, iconographic, and literary evidence, the study takes a gendered approach to lamp use, examines the objects’ social and symbolic functions, and explores their conceptual place in Greek society. The core of the dissertation consists of three main chapters. Chapter two looks at women and lamps. It begins with an examination of the opening lines of Aristophanes’ Ekklesiazousai, and then assesses women’s lamp use in the home, where the objects helped women perform tasks ranging from early-morning baking to genital depilation. Their use by women at Athens during funeral processions is also considered. Indeed, women and lamps were closely linked during these periods. The objects came to symbolize domesticity and, by association, femininity. They also helped to create and perpetuate female stereotypes, and could be instrumental in controlling women’s behaviors. Women’s conceptions of their lamps grew from use: they saw them as quiet companions and perhaps emblems of burden. Chapter three investigates male lamp use. Lamps and their stands played a role in civic and private dining. They functioned on many levels within red-figure representations of the symposium, and these images offer clues about lamp use at actual symposia. When carried by individuals for street lighting, lamps facilitated travel in the dark while marking the social status of their users. Many literary references suggest that men connected the objects with the concept of exposure, of matters private as well as political, an idea connected to the objects’ use and symbolism in the female arena. Chapter four explores the significance of lamps in the contexts of burial and religion. To a certain extent, the association between women and lamps observed in the home obtained in these spheres, especially in graves on Sicily and in cults of female deities. The study and its findings expand our understanding of uses and perceptions of an often overlooked class of objects, and of gender and social dynamics in Archaic and Classical Greece.

Abstract:
The environmental concern has become a well discussed topic within today’s society and as a result awareness of the impact human behaviour has on the environment is continuously increasing. This concern is something companies take advantage of when marketing, as for instance by promoting their products or services as eco-labelled. Eco-labelled products have further shown to involve a lot of consumer opinions, and are thus common to study in relation to consumer attitudes. Theories also show that eco-labelled goods have been idealised in favour of conventional ones, referred to as a marketing placebo effect. In connection to this, companies have started to point interest at eco-labelled technology, which has become a recent phenomenon attracting attention. Nonetheless, the existing theory regarding this phenomenon has been mainly applied on specific areas, such as the food industry. The purpose of this study was therefore to explain the marketing placebo effect on eco-labelled technology. 162 experiments were conducted using one experiment group and one control group, in order to be able to detect an eventual marketing placebo effect when implementing an eco-label, using attitudes as an influencer. Based on the results, it was revealed that attitudes are crucial to take into consideration when applying an eco-label in a technology context. This as it was concluded that attitudes act as a trigger evoking a marketing placebo effect. The findings from this study contradicts current theories on how different factors cooperate in the process of a marketing placebo effect, and advances has thus been made in how the marketing placebo effect works when applied in a technology context.

Full text
Abstract:
Cette thèse porte sur l'étude théorique de nouveaux concepts de transistors en graphène par le formalisme des fonctions de Green dans l'hypothèse du transport balistique. Le graphène est un matériau bidimensionnel composé d'atomes de carbone organisés en nid d'abeille. Cette structure confère des propriétés uniques aux porteurs de charge dans le graphène, comme une masse effective nulle et un comportement ultra-relativiste (fermions de Dirac), ce qui conduit à des mobilités extraordinairement élevées. C'est pourquoi des efforts très importants ont été mis en œuvre dans la communauté scientifique pour la réalisation de transistors en graphène. Cependant, en vue de nombreuses applications, le graphène souffre de l'absence d'une bande d'énergie interdite. De plus, dans le cas des transistors conventionnels à base de graphène (GFET), cette absence de bande interdite, combinée avec l'apparition de l'effet tunnel de Klein, a pour effet de dégrader considérablement le rapport I_ON/I_OFF des GFET. L'absence de gap empêche également toute saturation du courant dans la branche N - là où se trouve le maximum de transconductance pour des sources et drain dopés N - et ne permet donc pas de tirer profit des très bonnes performances fréquentielles que le graphène est susceptible d'offrir grâce aux très hautes mobilités de ses porteurs. Cependant, de précédents travaux théorique et expérimentaux ont montré que la réalisation d'un super-réseau d'anti-dots dans la feuille de graphène - appelée Graphene NanoMesh (GNM) - permettait d'ouvrir une bande interdite dans le graphène. On s'est donc d'abord proposé d'étudier l'apport de l'introduction de ce type de structure pour former canal des transistors - appelés GNMFET - par rapport aux GFET " conventionnels ". La comparaison des résultats obtenus pour un GNM-FET avec un GFET de mêmes dimensions permettent d'affirmer que l'on peut améliorer le rapport I_ON/I_OFF de 3 ordres de grandeurs pour une taille et une périodicité adéquate des trous. Bien que l'introduction d'un réseau de trous réduise légèrement la fréquence de coupure intrinsèque f_T, il est remarquable de constater que la bonne saturation du courant dans la branche N, qui résulte de la présence de la bande interdite dans le GNM, conduit à une fréquence maximale d'oscillation f_max bien supérieure dans le GNM-FET. Le gain en tension dans ce dernier est aussi amélioré d'un ordre de grandeur de grandeur par rapport au GFET conventionnel. Bien que les résultats sur le GNM-FET soient très encourageants, l'introduction d'une bande interdite dans la feuille de graphène induit inévitablement une masse effective non nulle pour les porteurs, et donc une vitesse de groupe plus faible que dans le graphène intrinsèque. C'est pourquoi, en complément de ce travail, nous avons exploré la possibilité de moduler le courant dans un GFET sans ouvrir de bande interdite dans le graphène. La solution que nous avons proposée consiste à utiliser une grille triangulaire à la place d'une grille rectangulaire. Cette solution exploite les propriétés du type "optique géométrique" des fermions de Dirac dans le graphène, qui sont inhérentes à leur nature " Chirale ", pour moduler l'effet tunnel de Klein dans le transistor et bloquer plus efficacement le passage des porteurs dans la branche P quand le dopage des sources et drains sont de type N. C'est pourquoi nous avons choisi d'appeler ce transistor le " Klein Tunneling FET " (KTFET). Nous avons pu montrer que cette géométrie permettrait d'obtenir un courant I_off plus faible que ce qui est obtenu d'habitude, pour la même surface de grille, pour les GFET conventionnels. Cela offre la perspective d'une nouvelle approche de conception de dispositifs permettant d'exploiter pleinement le caractère de fermions de Dirac des porteurs de charges dans le graphène.

Abstract:
The increase of trading has created many environmental, ecological, social and ethical problems. The main concern across all industries is to create more sustainable, eco-friendly and ethical manufacturing processes. Only by influence consumer's purchasing behavior there might be the demand for eco-green products. The fashion and textile industry as one of the main contributor to the world's economy is one of the main environmental polluter (e.g.: soil, lakes, river and air). Recently, many young fashion designers started to offer eco-green fashion to the market. This new phenomenon might change the course of the world fashion industry. The goal of this research is to find out the real demand for eco-green products and its impacts on the traditional methods of fashion manufacturing. Three geographical areas where chosen to represent consumption side (US and EU (UK)) and manufacturing side (China). The specific fashion garment was chosen to demonstrate detailed analysis of the manufacturing processes and its new eco-green formula -- the denim jeans. The primary and secondary research approaches were chosen to cover the whole industrial view on this phenomenon. The outcome of the research showed that the major impact was on the general consumer's purchasing behavior and their life style. It is a new trend and concept that is reshaping the traditional fashion business models. Denim jeans industry leaders such as Levi's Strauss are in process of implementing eco-green, ethical and fair-trade factors into their long-term strategy.

Abstract:
Pesquisas em que se procura investigar a relação entre os fatores ambientais e o comportamento dos consumidores são ainda embrionárias no Brasil, o que constitui uma oportunidade para estudos que relacionam o comportamento de compra dos consumidores com as questões ambientais. Nessa perspectiva, o objetivo da presente pesquisa foi verificar se existe correlação entre os construtos: conhecimento ecológico, afeto ecológico, preocupação ecológica, normas subjetivas e o comportamento de compras verdes. Na busca do alcance dos objetivos propostos, adotou-se uma metodologia caracterizada pela pesquisa exploratória, utilizando-se o método transversal simples no processo de coleta dos dados. Foram adotados no estudo dados secundários, provenientes de artigos, livros, dissertações, teses e internet, além de dados primários, coletados com a aplicação de questionários à população-alvo. Partindo-se de uma amostragem aleatória estratificada, essa população foi constituída pelas mulheres acima dos 18 anos, por representarem consumidoras potenciais de produtos cosméticos. No tratamento dos dados dos 500 questionários validados, contemplouse a utilização do coeficiente Alpha de Cronbach e da técnica multivariada de análise fatorial exploratória. Um modelo de regressão múltipla foi testado para explicar o comportamento de compra de cosméticos ecológicos. Os resultados deixam evidências de que as variáveis Normas Subjetivas (NS), Afeto Ecológico (AE), Preocupação Ecológica (PE) e Conhecimento Ecológico (CE) foram consideradas estatisticamente significantes para explicar as variações em Comportamento de Compra de Cosméticos Ecológicos (CCCE), com um R2 de 0,555. Entre as variáveis demográficas testadas, verificou-se que apenas a faixa etária e a classe social exercem influência moderada sobre a variável dependente. Tais resultados sinalizam similaridade entre os resultados obtidos na mensuração da correlação múltipla entre as variáveis independentes, a variável dependente e aqueles observados na teoria sobre a influência da primeira sobre o comportamento de compra de produtos ambientalmente corretos. Os resultados desta tese oferecem uma compreensão adicional sobre os fatores que afetam o processo de decisão de compra do consumidor. Considera-se, portanto, que este trabalho constitui um avanço no estado da arte das pesquisas sobre a relação entre os fatores ambientais e o comportamento dos consumidores, uma vez que foram investigados aspectos não contemplados em estudos anteriores.
Research which seeks to investigate the relationship between environmental factors and the consumer behavior is still embryonic in Brazil, which is a unique opportunity for those studies that relate the purchasing behavior of consumers to environmental issues. In this perspective, the goal of this research was to ascertain whether there is correlation between the following constructs: ecological knowledge, ecological affection, ecological concern, subjective norms and green purchase behavior. In pursuit of achieving the proposed objectives, a methodology characterized by exploratory search was used, adopting the simple transverse method in data collection process. In the study, secondary data from articles, books, dissertations, theses and the internet were used, in addition to the primary data, collected with the application of questionnaires to the target population. Based on a stratified random sampling, the population was constituted by women over 18 years old, since they represent potential consumers of cosmetic products. Regarding the data processing of 500 validated questionnaires, the use of Cronbach\'s Coefficient Alpha and multivariate exploratory technique of factor analysis were contemplated. A multiple regression model was tested to explain the behavior of buying ecological cosmetics. The results produce evidence that Subjective Norms (SN), Ecological Affection (EA), Ecological Concern (EC) and Ecological Knowledge (EC) variables were considered statistically significant to explain the variations in Purchase Behavior of Ecological Cosmetics (PBEC), with an R2 of 0.555. Among the demographic variables tested, it was found that only the age and social class exercise moderate influence over the dependent variable. Such results indicate similarity among the results obtained in the measurement of multiple correlations among independent variables, the dependent variable and those observed in theory concerning the influence of the former over the purchasing behavior of environmentally correct products. The results of this thesis offer additional insight about the factors that affect the purchase decision process. Therefore, it is considered that this work is an advance in the state of the art of research about the relationship between environmental factors and the consumer behavior, since aspects not covered in previous studies were investigated.

Abstract:
Contaminantes orgânicos há tempos são normalmente encontrados em baixíssimas concentrações no meio ambiente. Compostos orgânicos monoaromáticos, derivados dos subprodutos do petróleo, frequentemente são encontrados próximos a postos de combustíveis, onde há constantes vazamentos nos tanques de armazenamento. Poluentes emergentes, como exemplo os fármacos, também são temas constantes de pesquisas, devido à baixa taxa de degradação dos mesmos, mesmo após submetidos a sistemas de tratamento convencionais. Assim, a busca por técnicas de remediação, que visem a completa remoção de poluentes em baixas concentrações e metodologias analíticas que permitam o isolamento e detecção de tais compostos se torna essencial. Esse trabalho tem como uma de suas finalidades otimizar e aplicar um sistema de remoção de compostos orgânicos monoaromáticos presentes em solo, utilizando CO2 no estado supercrítico. A SPME-GC-MS foi otimizada e validada para a etapa de extração, com separação e quantificação por GC-MS dos contaminantes remanescentes após o solo ser submetido ao processo de remediação. Outro etapa do projeto, está relacionada com a determinação de sulfonamidas em lodo de esgoto. Para isso, um método rápido, fácil, barato e robusto de extração foi otimizado e validado, obtendo bons limites de quantificação (10-25 ng g-1) e detecção (4-9 ng g-1), com precisão e exatidão satisfatórios, de acordo com os valores estabelecidos pela ANVISA. Ainda com o propósito de determinar sulfonamidas em lodo de esgoto, um método LC online foi desenvolvido. A finalidade é promover o clean-up da matriz e extração dos analitos em um sistema de extração em fase sólida capilar online. Para isso, fez uso de duas colunas capilares (530 µm x 6,0 cm) dispostas em série, inseridas em um sistema cromatográfico capilar acoplado a detecção por espectrometria de massas. A primeira coluna teve como finalidade a retenção de interferentes presentes na amostra utilizando para isso, uma fase polimérica Strata-X. Já a segunda coluna, extraiu as sulfonamidas de interesse utilizando, para isso, uma fase polimérica aniônica Oasis Max. O extrato inserido no sistema de extração em fase sólida onlineera composto por 100 % solvente orgânico (acetonitrila); utilizando diferentes porcentagens de acetonitrila na etapa de carregamento, foi possível realizar clean-up adequado da amostra. A eluição dos analitos foi feita utilizando-se fase móvel acidificada. Com esse sistema, melhorou-se em até 30 % a extração de alguns compostos. Todos os métodos de preparo de amostra utilizados no trabalhos seguem a tendência atual sugerida pelo conceito do green chemistry.
The determination of organic contaminants in environmental matrices has long been a challenge for the scientific community, due to the very low concentrations they are present. Monoaromatic organiccompounds derived from petroleum sub-products are still a concern, because they are often found in environmental sites near gas stations, where there are constant leaks in storage tanks. Emerging pollutants,which include personal care products and pharmaceuticals, are also constant subject of research due to their low degradation rate, even after conventional treatment systems. Moreover, the research forremediation techniques aimed at complete removal of pollutants at low concentrations, as weel as new analytical methodologies for isolation and detection of such compounds are, both, essential. This workaims to optimize and apply a system to remove monoaromatic organic compounds present in soil, using CO2 in the supercritical state. As an analytical tool, SPME was optimized and validated with separation and quantification by GC-MS of selected contaminants remaining after the remediation process. Another research work developed is related to the determination of sulfonamides in sewage sludge.Firstly a methodology based on QuEChERS extraction method was optimized and validated, obtaining good results as limits of quantification, LOQ (10-25 ng g-1) and detection, LOD (4-9 ng g-1) withsatisfactory accuracy and precision, according to the values established by ANVISA. Still working to determine sulfonamides in sewage sludge, a new online sample preparation method was developed. Thepurpose of this method is to promote the matrix clean-up and concentration analytes in a capillary SPE system. It was used two capillary columns (500 µm x 6.0 cm) arranged in series in a capillarychromatographic system coupled to mass spectrometry. The first column was intended to retain interferences present in the sample, using a Strata-X polymer phase. The second column extracted sulfonamidesof interest, making use of an anionic polymer phase (Oasis MAX). The extract inserted in the online SPE system was composed of 100% organic solvent (acetonitrile); using different percentages of ACNwith appropriately pH at the loading stage, it was possible to achieve a satisfatory sample clean-up. The elution of the analytes was performed using an acidified mobile phase. This system improved by up to30% extraction yield of some compounds. All sample preparation methods used in the works follow the current trend suggested by the green chemistry concept.

Abstract:
This thesis explores the desirability of Australia???s State museums to be inclusive of diverse cultures. In keeping with a cultural studies approach, and a commitment to social action, emphasis is placed upon enhancing the ability of State museums to fulfil obligations and expectations imposed upon them as modern collecting institutions in a culturally diverse nation. By relating the desirability and ability of State museums to attaining social justice in a multicultural Australia through broadening the concept of Australia???s heritage, the thesis is firmly situated within post-colonial discourse. The thesis analyses State multicultural, heritage, and museum legislation, in New South Wales, Victoria, and Queensland, with regard to State museums as agents of cultural policy. Results from a survey, Greeks and Museums, conducted amongst Australia???s Greeks in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane, reveal an anomaly between their museum-going habits and the perception of those habits as expressed by government policies promoting the inclusion of Australians of a non-English speaking background in the nation???s cultural programmes. In exploring the issue of inclusiveness, the thesis highlights the need for cultural institutions to shift the emphasis away from audience development, towards greater audience participation. The thesis outlines an initiative-derived Queensland Model for establishing an inclusive relationship between museums and communities, resulting in permanent, affordable, and authoritative collections, while simultaneously improving the museums??? international reputation and networking capabilities. By using the example of one of the nation???s non-indigenous communities, and drawing upon material obtained through the survey, and a catalogue containing photographs and lists of Greek textile collections found in the Powerhouse Museum (MAAS), Sydney, the National Gallery of Victoria and the Immigration Museum, Melbourne, the Queensland Art Gallery and the Queensland Museum, Brisbane, as well as collections owned by private individuals, the thesis focuses on the role played by museums in constructing social cohesion and inclusiveness.

Abstract:
Sustainability and environmental responsibility is increasingly growing in importance. Solving the environmental problems of the planet will one day become the responsibility of future scientists. For this reason, and with the introduction of new chemical legislation (REACH) driving change it is essential that current students are given a broad introduction to sustainability and environmental responsibility in order to equip them as graduates for future practice in the chemical sciences. At the University of Bradford the aim is to teach sustainability and environmental responsibility by embedding it throughout the entire chemistry curriculum rather than teaching it in standalone lectures. Once this has been established within chemistry it is expected that this will potentially provide a template for other areas of laboratory science within the university. In order to achieve the aim of this project, students, staff and potential employers tookpart in surveys with a view to inform curriculum development. Examples of best practice were sought and used as guidance for the development of directed learning activities for use as post lab questions and utilisation of the twelve principles of green chemistry. Green chemistry metrics were applied to undergraduate experiments to test how well they would work in terms of ease of use, applicability and judging ¿greenness¿. It was found that these were not very effective for use within an undergraduate laboratory due to applicability and judging ¿greenness¿, however this work highlighted other areas for improvement. As a result of this work an environmental assessment metric system was developed for use within an undergraduate setting.

Abstract:
The general aim of the Dissertation is to analyse from a political perspective the language of Sophocles’ plays, using the history of concepts methodology. The research approach is interdisciplinary, since it provides an accurate philological and historical analysis of the sources. In particular, the research focuses on the discourses pronounced by the most relevant female characters in Sophocles’ dramas. I took into account the tragic language as political, referring on how the different characters’ speeches produce relationships and connections, and cause some specific acts within the institutionalised and codified structure of a political community. I focused on several speeches of the female characters of three plays: Women of Trachis, Antigone and Electra. In my research work I studied and problematized such concepts as “publicness”, “performativity”, “agency”, frequently used by many contemporary American philosophers and political theorists in order to analyse the language of the Ancient Greek tragedy. Since public spaces in 5th century Athens - such as the theater, the assembly, and the courthouse – were restricted to the men’s speeches, I focused on how the female speech was produced, with the aim to destabilize and criticize the very idea of “public speech” in classical Greece as gendered. In particular, I focused on three institutionalised forms of discourse, such as: the legal and judiciary discourse, the agon, and the lamentation. The structure of the Dissertation is the following: - A general Introduction presenting the aim of the Dissertation. - Chapter I, describing the sources and the research methodology, reviewing the bibliography and narrating the historical context. - Chapter II, on Deianeira, the female protagonist of Women of Trachis. It focuses on the institution of marriage and on the legal discourse. - Chapter III, on Antigone’s and Electra’s sororal agonism. The analysis focuses on the agons between the female protagonists and their respective sisters. - Chapter IV, on Antigone’s and Electra’s lamentations and interactions with the Chorus. - The Conclusions and final comments.
Lo scopo generale della dissertazione consiste nel produrre un’analisi storico-concettuale politica del linguaggio delle tragedie sofoclee, e utilizza un approccio interdisciplinare, impiegando un’analisi filologica e storiografica. In particolare, tale analisi vuole approfondire lo statuto di parlante della donna nell’Atene del V secolo e l'efficacia della parola delle figure femminili più rilevanti nella drammaturgia sofoclea. Si è indagata la politicità del linguaggio tragico, ovvero la capacità dei discorsi di costruire relazioni, legami, di produrre un determinato agire all'interno di una comunità politica, a partire da una dimensione istituzionalizzata e codificata. Ci siamo concentrati sulle tragedie Trachinie, Antigone ed Elettra, e in particolare sulla presa di parola delle protagoniste femminili di ciascun dramma. Nel corso del lavoro di ricerca, si è posta la necessità di approfondire e mettere in questione concetti come quelli di “pubblico”, “performatività”, “agency”, per mezzo dei quali la ricezione critica - specialmente quella della filosofia e della political theory americana contemporanea – ha indagato la politicità del linguaggio della tragedia classica. Lo spazio del pubblico in Grecia antica (quello del teatro, delle assemblee, dei tribunali), tradizionalmente concepito come lo spazio del “politico”, è anche lo spazio della parola maschile. Dunque, si è reso necessario un approfondimento delle modalità attraverso le quali si produce il discorso femminile in modo da produrre una critica all’idea stessa di “discorso pubblico” ad Atene. In particolare ci siamo concentrati su tre forme istituzionalizzate del discorso, quali: il discorso pronunciato in tribunale, gli agoni, la lamentazione. Il percorso argomentativo si struttura nelle seguenti fasi: - Un’introduzione di carattere generale che spiega gli obiettivi che ci siamo posti, la scelta di usare la tragedia come materiale per una riflessione filosofico-politica, e la scelta di guardare al discorso dei personaggi femminili. - Il capitolo I, che spiega i materiali usati e la metodologia. Contiene anche una ricognizione bibliografica e la contestualizzazione storica. - Il capitolo II, incentrato su Deianira, protagonista delle Trachinie. Nella prima parte il tema centrale è l’istituzione del matrimonio, nella seconda il discorso giudiziario. - Il capitolo III, incentrato sugli agoni tra sorelle, rispettivamente nell’Antigone e nell’Elettra. La prima metà riguarda gli scambi discorsivi agonistici tra Antigone e Ismene, la seconda quelli tra Elettra e Crisotemi. - Il capitolo IV, incentrato sulle lamentazioni e sugli scambi discorsivi col coro, ancora nell’Antigone e nell’Elettra. - Le osservazioni conclusive che rimarcano l’intento iniziale di produrre una critica politica all’idea stessa di “discorso pubblico” nell’Atene classica.

Abstract:
Detta kandidatarbete syftar till att utreda om Urban Forestry kan tillföra något till svensk planering. Urbanisering har skett under en lång tid och för att tillgodose det växande behovet av bostäder har förtätning av staden skett, vilket ofta har gjorts på bekostnad av städers grönska. För att hantera utmaningarna med att integrera grönska i täta städer har ett behov av nytänkande grönplanering uppkommit. Urban Forestry anses vara en lösning på denna problematik och fokuserar på att skapa gröna städer där det inte finns ytor kvar för traditionella parker. För att undersöka om Urban Forestry tillför något nytt till svensk planering utreds grönplaneringens utveckling genom tiderna samt företeelsen Urban Forestry genom en litteraturstudie. Urban Forestry visade sig vara ett vagt och svårdefinierat begrepp, dessutom är de vetenskapliga grunderna för dess positiva miljöeffekter bristande. Dock bidrar Urban Forestry med uppmärksammande av miljö- och hållbarhetsfrågor, och visar goda ambitioner och initiativ till att utveckla och förbättra grönplanering. När den svenska grönplaneringen sattes i relation till Urban Forestry visade det sig att de bärande idéerna redan är representerade inom existerande grönplanering i Sverige.
This bachelor thesis aims to investigate if the concept of Urban Forestry could bring new knowledge into Swedish urban planning. Urbanization has taken place for a long time and in order to meet the growing need for housing, densification of the city has taken place, which has often been done at the expense of urban greenery. In order to deal with the challenges of integrating greenery into dense cities, a need for innovative green planning has arisen. Urban Forestry as a concept is considered a solution to this problem and focuses on creating greenery in cities where limited areas for traditional parks are available. In order to investigate whether Urban Forestry adds something new to Swedish planning, the development of green planning over time and the concept of Urban Forestry is investigated. Urban Forestry turned out to be vague and difficult to define, and the scientific basis for the concept’s arguments are lacking. However, Urban Forestry contributes attention to environmental and sustainability issues, and shows good ambitions and initiatives to develop and improve green planning. When Swedish green planning was put in relation to Urban Forestry, the outcome was that the ideas in the concept were already represented within existing green planning.

Abstract:
“All countries are vulnerable to climate change and instability in weather patterns but the poorest countries and the poorest people within them are most vulnerable, being the most exposed and having the least means to adapt” (IMF and World Bank Development Committee, 2006). African cities, as other cities around the world, are prone to flooding within in urban areas. The increased flooding from climate change, could have seriously destabilising effects for Africa (Commission for Africa, 2005). Climate records shows that most of Africa warmed by approximately 0.7°C during the twentieth century (IPCC Working Group II, 2001). Future changes in rainfall will depend greatly on the influence of global warming. In addition, a United Nations World Water Report states that in the beginning of the twenty-first century, the Earth with its diverse and abundant life forms (including over six billion humans), is facing a serious water crisis. Water needs to be conserved in any way possible. (United Nations World Water Report, n.d.). This study aims to explore the role in which floodingin urban landscapes can be addressed, but simultaneously stored for future use. It argues that the negative element of flooding can rather be used, i.e the water could be conserved and used in the build environment, rather than inhibiting social, economic and ecological factors. The pilot project in this stage can at the same time, serve as an urban generator. An innovative solution (urban water park) is analysed and tested and serves as a possible outcome to address flooding problems within an African city (Maputo, Mozambique). Afrika, 2005).
Stede in Afrika, soos in ander in die wêreld, is onderhewe aan vloedrampe in stedelike areas. Die toenemende vloedegevalle, tesame met die impak van klimaatsverandering, kan uiterse destabilisering vir die Afrika kontinent inhou (Kommissie vir Afrika, 2005). ‘n Klimaatsrekord, bewys dat gedurende die twintigste eeu, ‘n groot deel van Afrika onderworpe was aan ‘n hittetoename van omtrent 0.7°C (IPPC Werksgroep II, 2011). Toekomstige veranderinge in reënval sal grootliks afhang van die invloed van aardsverwarming. Ter aanvoering van die argument word daar adisioneel toegevoeg dat die Verenigde Nasies se Wêreldswater Verslag die volgende aanlas: dat die aarde, met sy diverse en verskeidenheid van lewende wesens (wat oor die ses miljioen mense insluit), aan die begin van die een-en-twintigste eeu onderworpe sal wees aan ernstige watertekorte. Water moet dus in alle moontlike maniere gespaar word (Verenigde Nasies se Wêreldswater Verslag, geen datum). Die studie beoog om die rol van vloede in die verstedelike landskap te ondersoek en aan te spreek tot voordeel van die bouomgewing. Die ontwerp poog om die huidige negatiewe element van water eerder te bewaar en die gebruik daarvan te aan te moedig. Hierdeur word word die omswaai in sosiale, ekonomiese en ekologiese faktore inplekgestel. ‘n Projek sal dan terselfdertyd as verstedelike genereerder dien. ‘n Innoverende oplossing, ‘n stedelike water park, is geondersoek en getoets. Hierdie sal moontlik as die oplossing dien van die huidige vloedprobleme in hierdie Afrika stad (Maputo, Mosambiek).

Abstract:
In recent decades, adaptation to the impacts of climate change has become a key agenda for cities around the globe. A growing body of literature has already illustrated how cities are a key driver of climate change, its main victim and a promising site for action. Meanwhile, climate change has brought not only new responsibilities but also a new lexicon for urban practitioners. Concepts such as urban climate resilience and the idea of nature’s benefits for climate adaptation, embodied in the “green concepts” – nature-based solutions (NbS), ecosystem-based adaptation (EbA) and blue-green infrastructure (BGI) – feature in the major global agreements. Still, they are often seen as vague, ambiguous, and therefore of limited practical value. Despite their prominence both in academia and policy discourses, their actual operationalisation and use on the ground remains understudied. This thesis aims to widen the existing scholarly knowledge by examining how urban climate resilience and ‘green concepts’ are used and operationalised at different levels of decision-making in the EU. Several bodies of literature contribute to the conceptual framework of the thesis: climate change adaptation in cities, scholarship specifically on these concepts, and studies on the role of framings and science-policy interface in environmental and climate governance. I use qualitative methods to analyse strategic policy papers and semi-structured interviews with city practitioners across Europe, plus a survey among European academics. The thesis is composed of three academic papers investigating the uptake of these concepts. Paper 1 compares the perceptions of conceptual tensions surrounding urban resilience among the EU academics and practitioners; Paper 2 looks at how urban resilience is operationalised in three science-policy projects financed by the EU; Paper 3 studies the uptake of NbS, BGI and EbA, which are seen as one of the key ways to enhance urban resilience, in urban green planning and management in four large Polish cities. This study provides a critical discussion of concepts’ operationalisation efforts and challenges and discusses the role of vagueness and uncertainty in their uptake. It contributes to the literature by expanding the geography of research beyond few ‘frontrunner’ cities as well as outlining some general tendencies in the European context.

Mestrado em Marketing
Hoje em dia, assistimos da parte dos consumidores a uma mudança de atitude perante os seus comportamentos de consumo em resposta às crescentes preocupações ambientais. O marketing tem assumido um papel de destaque nesta mudança de comportamento, sendo que, a área do marketing onde incide este tema é conhecida como marketing verde. A investigação identifica quais os fatores que influenciam o comportamento de compra verde. Para tal, foram definidos os seguintes objetivos: identificar quais os valores de consumo que influenciam o comportamento; perceber se a preocupação ambiental, definida como uma atitude para a preservação do meio ambiente também influencia o comportamento; e, verificar se existe o desvio entre as atitudes e os comportamentos encontrado em outras investigações, bem como perceber se os valores de consumo têm alguma influência sobre a atitude. Nesta investigação foi aplicada a teoria dos valores de consumo, desenvolvida por Sheth et al. (1991), que defende que o comportamento do consumidor é influenciado por cinco valores de consumo, valores funcionais, sociais, emocionais, condicionais e epistêmicos. O estudo foi de carácter quantitativo, recorrendo-se a um inquérito online e a uma amostra de 197 inquiridos. Os resultados demonstram que os valores funcionais qualidade (fator qualidade), valores emocionais (fatores emocionais), valores epistêmicos (fatores de curiosidade, novidade e conhecimento) e a preocupação ambiental influenciam o comportamento de compra do consumidor. Verificou-se ainda que, os mesmos valores que influenciam o comportamento também influenciam a atitude, levando a crer que os valores podem influenciar direta ou indiretamente o comportamento através de atitudes.
Nowadays, we have witnessed when it comes to consumers to a change of attitude towards their consumption behaviors in response to growing environmental concerns. The marketing has assumed a prominent role in this change of behavior, and the area of marketing which focuses this issue is known as green marketing. The research identifies the factors that influence the behavior of green purchasing. For this purpose, the following goals were defined: identifying which consumption values influence behavior; realize the environmental concern, defined as an attitude to the preservation of the environment also influences behavior; and check if there is a discrepancy between attitudes and behaviors found in other investigations, as well as understand if consumption values have some influence on attitude. In this research the theory of consumption values, developed by Sheth et al. (1991), was applied. This thesis argues that consumer behavior is influenced by five values of consumption; functional, social, emotional, conditional and epistemic values. The study was quantitative, resorting to an online survey and a sample of 197 respondents. The results demonstrate that functional values quality (quality factor), emotional values (emotional factors), epistemic values (factors of curiosity, novelty and knowledge) and environmental concerns influence the buying behavior of the consumer. It was also found that the same values that influence behavior also influence the attitude, leading us to believe that the values can directly or indirectly influence behavior through attitudes.

Abstract:
Le travail présenté dans ce mémoire, a été dans un premier temps de formuler une nouvelle méthode itérative basée sur le concept d'onde (la FWCIP) pour modéliser tout type de dispositifs micro-ondes planaires sans aucune contrainte géométrique, puis à l'améliorer au fur et à mesure que les difficultés sont survenues. L'objectif de cette méthode est de déterminer une relation simple et efficace permettant de mettre en relation les ondes incidentes et réfléchies dans les différents milieux environnant la discontinuité en exprimant la réflexion dans le domaine modal et la diffraction, définie à partir des conditions aux limites et de continuité, dans le domaine spatial. Le processus itératif s'appuie sur la transformée de Fourier rapide en modes (FFTM) pour passer rapidement d'un domaine à l'autre et pour s'affranchir des fonctions d'essai. En sus, la FFTM permet de diminuer considérablement le temps de calcul. L'algorithme de la moyenne mobile a été appliqué à la méthode afin d'accroître les performances de celle-ci, en permettant l'accélération de la convergence de l'impédance vue par la source. Ce simulateur, après quelques comparaisons avec la littérature, se prête aussi bien à l'étude de structures en guide d'ondes classique (iris), des structures microrubans (antennes, coupleurs), qu'à des dispositifs coplanaires (filtres) en simple ou multicouches. Ensuite, la formulation de la méthode a été révisée pour permettre l'analyse de structures imprimées sur des matériaux artificiels réalisés soit à partir de plots métalliques (via-holes) disposés périodiquement dans le substrat diélectrique d'un circuit microruban ou à partir de gravures périodiques dans le plan de masse d'une ligne microruban. La FWCIP combinée avec la méthode des éléments de frontière a permis de définir les principales caractéristiques des filtres à gap photonique. Pour terminer, une étude comparative a été faite entre la simulation et les mesures.

The subject is the elaboration of the concept in order to bring together the interests of BUT and Brno city in this extraordinary territory for the benefit of both subjects. This work deals in detail with newly proposed objects in the BUT territory. A number of regulations have been issued in the territory limiting the subsequent use of the area, but the current area does not suit the existing potential of the site. The main concept was a creation of a set of buildings that will serve the University for representation and public activities, while allowing the access and use of the general public by the inhabitants of the city of Brno. The whole site will be set up in a newly-built city-wide park and other park areas that will create an attractive part of the now-inaccessible and unspoilt area connecting Veveri with Kravi hora. There will also be added additional features inspired by the existing features in the area, namely the Art Colony with ateliers, then Business Units and spacious Public Workshops. The entire Kravi hora area will be interwoven with a number of services serving both adults and children. The new proposal will also lead to the diversion of car traffic from the whole territory in order to ensure the safest relaxed movement of visitors. There will be numerous parking spaces located on the outskirts of the area. The main goal is to create a strong concept focusing on relaxation, health, education and sport, which should result in the overall opening and attractiveness of the territory.

Abstract:
Förekomsten av vattenrelaterade problem som extrem nederbörd, översvämningar, torka och vattenbrist kommer att öka i urbana områden till följd av de globala klimatförändringarna. Sponge city-konceptet är ett urbant dagvattenhanteringssystem som lanserades i Kina och syftar till att förbättra vattenhanteringen i städer genom att återställa stadens kapacitet att absorbera, infiltrera, lagra och rena vatten. Den här studien syftade till att undersöka om sponge city-konceptet hade kunnat implementeras i Malmö genom att besvara frågeställningen ” Vilka möjligheter respektive hinder finns det för Malmö att implementera sponge city-konceptet?”. Genom en systematisk litteraturstudie och innehållsanalys i kombination med det teoretiska ramverket som baserades på konceptet sårbarhet för klimatförändringar visade resultatet på att det både finns en del möjligheter men också hinder. Det huvudsakliga hindret som identifierades är att en stor del av marken i Malmö består av täta moränleror vilket utgör ett hinder för de infiltrationsåtgärder som ingår i sponge city-konceptet. Några möjligheter som identifierades är att sponge city-konceptet kan minska känsligheten för skada som uppstår i förhållande till exponeringsnivån, samt att Malmös anpassningskapacitet är relativt hög. På grund av att den här studien enbart undersökte specifika fysiska/miljömässiga aspekter inom sponge city-konceptet krävs däremot fler studier som tar hänsyn till fler aspekter om en implementering av konceptet skulle bli aktuell.
The occurrence of water related problems such as extreme precipitation, floods, drought and water scarcity will increase in urban areas as a result of global climate change. The sponge city-concept is an urban stormwater system launched in China and aims to improve the water management in cities by restoring the city’s capacity to absorb, infiltrate, store and purify water. This study aimed to investigate if the sponge city-concept could be implemented in Malmö by answering the question “What possibilities and obstacles exist for Malmö to implement the sponge city-concept?”. Through a systematic literature review and content analysis in combination with the theoretical framework, which was based on the concept climate change vulnerability, the results showed that there are some possibilities but also obstacles. The main obstacle that was identified is that the ground in Malmö largely consists of dense moraines which forms an obstacle for the infiltration measures that are included in the sponge city-concept. Some possibilities that were identified is that the sponge city-concept can decrease the sensitivity to harm that occurs in relation to the exposure level but also that Malmö’s adaptation capacity is relatively high. However, because this study only investigated specific physical/environmental aspects within the sponge city-concept, more studies that consider more aspects are required if an implementation of the concept would become prevailing.

Abstract:
The motivation for development of energy efficiency and implementation of novel advanced materials applied in buildings can be traced to increasing energy costs in conjunction with an enhanced environmental awareness among people. This doctoral dissertation presents contributions towards sustainable building, where factors such as building technology, energy efficiency in buildings, workers' health issues during construction measures, and certain economic considerations for renovation of buildings have been considered. The research study aims to provide a knowledge base for motivating building owners to renovate buildings based on energy efficiency and improved indoor environment. The initial phase of the research study identifies a detailed description of common drivers, expected in renovation projects by building owners. In the second phase, an information base is identified which may facilitate the bidding processes for decision makers by means of technological, social and economic aspects. The aforementioned information base can also contribute to attentive decisions regarding sustainable renovation and energy saving measures. A strategy was developed within the Renovation Workshop of Riksbyggen, in order to promote energy saving measures concurrent with major renovations in residential buildings. This operational decision support process was applied in a tenant owners' cooperative in Sweden. The objective of this process was to showcase and more importantly to implement energy saving measures, based on knowledge transfer between different parties involved in the renovation project. For the conducted case study, this process was shown to be of great importance when decisions regarding energy saving measures in conjunction with scheduled renovations are being planned. A unique case study was conducted on two of the most commonly used environmental certification programs for buildings in Sweden; Environmental Building (Miljöbyggnad) and GreenBuilding. Following a granted access to a limited database of submitted applications to Sweden Green Building Council, the most common mistakes in these were identified and categorized. This study contributed to further understanding about the level of ability among building consultants, comprehension of environmental certification, and enhancement of the ability to produce high-quality calculations concerning building-related energy usage. In addition, this insight can provide a basis for planning of continuing education of consultants within the field of building technology. For a church building, a study was conducted subsequent to an exchange of an existing electric coil heating system to a hydronic ground source heat pump system. Analyses of the energy demand and energy signature, prior to and after installation were carried out. The replacement of the original heating system with a ground source heat pump system for the church building constitutes a reduced energy consumption level of approximately 66%, at the average outside temperature of -2.30 °C. This study demonstrated that data from a detailed electric bill can be utilized in order to obtain the energy signature of the building and henceforth assess the energy savings. One aspect of the research, examined the decision making process related to sustainable renovation and refurbishment in buildings. The utilized methodology identified three distinct phases in order to instigate an engagement in sustainable renovation, by means of questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. In particular, the attitudes of stakeholders in Sweden, Denmark and Cyprus to sustainable building were studied through three separate case studies. Within the framework of this study, it was identified that building physics and durability are among the most important drivers for energy renovation. The results provided an insight into the renovation process in the aforementioned countries and identified that drivers such as improvement of indoor air quality and elimination of moisture in the building envelope are also of crucial importance. Another aspect of the conducted research highlights workplace accidents occurring within the Swedish construction sector. The purpose of this study was to serve as a useful tool to track the working environments of construction workers in order to reduce health and safety issues within the construction sector. The findings of this research suggest that despite laws, regulations or additional factors that seek to ensure a safe and healthy environment for construction workers, the Swedish construction work force still faces challenges. Moreover, it is identified that construction workers participating in the study call for additional measures to ensure occupational health and safety. Improved knowledge of economic performance and technical results of renovations can contribute to a snowball effect, with more property owners recognizing the value of energy aspects and thus provide an increased level of energy savings.

Abstract:
La thèse s’intéresse au duo amical entre hommes en France aux XVIe et XVIIe siècles. Le corpus, aux sources très diverses, écarte à la fois les femmes, les clercs et les intellectuels. Il s’agit d’étudier la réception des idées philosophiques, le regard porté sur la norme et la pratique de l’amitié. Après avoir retracé l’apport antique, patristique et médiéval, le cadre social est défini, notamment en ce qui concerne la place de la famille. Puis, les dictionnaires offrent un bon aperçu des différentes connotations des termes « amitié » et « ami ». Enfin, le travail s’attache à suivre le cours d’une amitié, de sa genèse à sa mort. L’importance du choix de l’ami et sa vertu transcendent le discours des XVIe et XVIIe siècles. Les gestes de l’amitié sont recherchés et presque codés. La peur de l’abandon ou de la trahison est très présente. On s’interroge beaucoup sur la possibilité, voire l’obligation, de la transgression des règles sociales. Les contemporains recherchent un équilibre, toujours difficile à obtenir et à garder. Concorde et Charité sont les deux notions non pas tant concurrentes que connexes à l’amitié. L’amitié-duo se vit en effet dans une société où l’amitié est omniprésente. Enfin, la mort ne scelle pas, en théorie, la fin d’une amitié. Le second tome de ce travail présente la méthodologie suivie pour l’élaboration du corpus ainsi que les raisons de la mise à l’écart des femmes. Les sources et la bibliographie sont également présentées dans ce dernier volume
The purpose of this dissertation is to study the influences of the norm on the representations of friendship and its practice in France during the 16th and the 17th centuries. The corpus draws aside both intellectuals and women to focus on the non-enclosed people. How two individuals are able to make friends with each other in the 16th and 17th centuries within a society itself thought in terms of friendship? This dissertation divides in two volumes. The first one is devoted to the study itself. The philosophical inheritance is presented, along with considerations on bonds linking the friend, the society, the couple and the family during the Modern Times. Questions of linguistics are also raised. The evolution of a friendship between two men is followed step by step from birth to death, as if it were a genuine living organism. Gestures and tokens of friendship are the bases of friendship. The latter is always endangered by the fragile balance between the social demands and the requirements of friendship. In the second volume are presented the methodology used to gather the documentary corpus, as well as our historical sources and bibliography. Reasons why women were excluded from our research work make the core of a specific chapter
