Abstract:

The rhetorical core of adaptation studies is a comparison between two texts, and the type of comparison that has sparked the most reactions, whether in its use or in speaking out against it, is fidelity criticism. As David Johnson and Simone Murray point out, fidelity criticism has long been rejected as an unscholarly mode of interpretative analysis because it is caught up in subjective value judgments and imprecise conjectures of a text’s “essence.” I contend, however, that the understanding of essences is critical to understanding both fidelity and the adaptation experience because something like essence is fixed in the human consciousness. Recent research in neuro-studies suggests that the mind creates “essences” by recognizing networks of structural elements in objects (namely texts for the purposes of this paper). The essence then becomes an experienced-based abstraction that can be recalled whenever useful. The individual is able to use the abstraction the mind creates to interpret the world, including the object itself, other objects, and the relationship all those objects have with him/herself, the individual. That relationship, in turn, influences and changes both the object and the individual interpreting the object. Thus the concept of a text’s essence, though often disregarded, becomes a useful interpretative tool when understood through a combination of overlapping theoretical traditions. Combining a reception-based structural and Heideggerian utilitarianism with recent neuroscientific findings grants productive insights clarifying our understandings and definitions of essence, especially in regard to adaptations in particular.

Abstract:

There is a fine line between the "simple" and the "simplistic". The simple such as the plain, the pure, and the truthful holds a complexity within, which is extremely hard to obtain. It ultimately results in beauty. The simplistic embodies nothing more than obviousness and boredom. My aim is to strive for simple beauty. Concerning objects and architecture, to simplify means to reduce by eliminating the superficial and the superfluous, to unmask what is essential. Quality materials and craftsmanship are prerequisites. In combination with the accuracy of the design they help to attain the desired result which speaks of precision and clarity.

Abstract:

Revelation is (roughly) the thesis that the natures of phenomenal properties are revealed through experience. In this paper, I respond to Antonin Broi's charge that if both Revelation and the quality space view of phenomenal properties are true, then counterintuitive results that speak against the truth of Revelation obtain. I present a qualified theory of Revelation that not only prevents his arguments from succeeding but has independent plausibility as a solution to worries about the alleged epiphenomenalism of phenomenal properties.
Master of Arts
When you taste a Golden Delicious apple, drink Ethiopian coffee, feel dental pain, hear classical music or have many other conscious experiences of things, there's *something it's like* to be in those states. The taste of the apple and the coffee and the feel of dental pain are phenomenal properties - the "feels" of things in the broadest possible sense. Philosophers wonder what these things - "feels" - really are. Are they neurological features of your brain or a material features generally or are they something different? In a recent essay, Antonin Broi attacks the idea that they are something other than material or brain states. If Revelation - the idea that experiences reveal the essences of phenomenal properties - and some ideas about the general nature of phenomenal properties are both true, then strange results arise. I argue against his reasoning and I give a better way to understand Revelation.

Abstract:

Healing is a human experience of primary concern to nurses. Understanding the experience of healing can offer nurses insight and possibly new ways to support healing in others. Healing Touch is an energy based therapeutic modality used to promote healing. With Healing Touch as one path and phenomenology as a guide, the lived experience of healing was explored. After analysis of the data from taped interviews the essential structure of the experience of healing was determined. Many similarities were found with literature and previous studies. Healing is described as a process, requiring active participation and effort through which a person becomes more aware with a higher consciousness, a sense of self worth and a feeling of serenity and joy. From this process and the many suggested paths, a prescription for healing emerged.

Abstract:

The whole modern world is associated with profound changes. They affect all spheres of human civilization. If the society hadn‘t changed, it would have died. The concept of "social change" in sociology is used to describe the dynamics in the society. But nowadays the term "social change" is not used in the sociology. In the social sciences and in practical politics there is a concept of "social development", which means a certain kind of social change that is directed towards the improvement, complications improvements. However, there are many other social changes that can‘t be recognized like changes in the direction of cultivation. Therefore, the concept of "social change" has become widespread. Social change does not involve any changes in any sphere (economic, political, spiritual),it involves changes in social systems, social stratification, social communities, social processes, institutions, organizations and their interactions.

Abstract:

The earth has always had on enormous value, because it is not a product of human labor, it is created by nature, and its reserves cannot be increased. As the world practice confirms, land resources are the main source of prosperity for any country in the world. Agricultural land is especially valuable because it performs a triune function: it is an ecological integral resource which creates conditions for the life and existence of the population; it is also a spatial basis for the placement of productive forces; it is the main means of agricultural production, that is, the object and means of labor at the same time. Land is also a powerful factor in identifying and realizing the role and place of land in economic security, history, culture, and social development of the country.

Full text

Abstract:

This research project, ‘Revealing the Essence of the Sacred’, examines the archetypal forms of the dot, cross and the mandorla. Their appearance and meaning are traced back through history and across cultures. The commonalities between the physical act of making imagery using these pared back abstracted forms and the experience, in the maker, of embodied immanence are examined. By extension the research also considers how creating and contemplating artwork can be a curative spiritual practice. I identify how the artwork correlates with, and is informed by, my spiritual practice. The research takes a phenomenological approach and is based on my own subjective experience of bodily sensed knowledge whilst making and viewing the image. Intuitively accessing the source or essence of the subject matter has been a primary motivating factor in the images used in the artwork. This approach is grounded in the innate belief that what has been distilled and purified has great transformative power. Informing this is an alignment with both the Jungian Collective Unconscious and the ancient Indian spiritual system of Tantra. The artworks, rendered within a ritualistic structure and using abstracted form, are an individual expression of the universality of intuitive mark making. A similar connection is established in the practice of contemporary artists who strongly identify with a level of spirituality in their personal lives

PONTIFÍCIA UNIVERSIDADE CATÓLICA DO RIO DE JANEIRO
COORDENAÇÃO DE APERFEIÇOAMENTO DO PESSOAL DE ENSINO SUPERIOR
PROGRAMA DE SUPORTE À PÓS-GRADUAÇÃO DE INSTS. DE ENSINO
No final dos anos 1960, os projetos arquitetônicos em grandes escalas foram desacreditados no Ocidente por estarem associados à presença dos Poderes vigentes. Influenciados pelos ideais de Maio de 1968, os arquitetos ocidentais passaram a procurar modelos alternativos, baseados na linguagem histórica. Eles buscavam com isso alcançar a autonomia da forma arquitetônica, esvaziando-a do suposto conteúdo ideológico, que estaria aderido às formas abstratas modernas. No entanto, o enfoque pós-moderno nos elementos formais do objeto arquitetônico e do espaço urbano implicava no abandono da questão urbanística na escala metropolitana. Esta escala espacial seria marcada pela perda das referências às estruturas formais orgânicas. No Japão, a pesquisa moderna em grandes escalas não foi interrompida, oferecendo um amplo instrumental para a questão urbanística contemporânea. Esta dissertação verifica como os arquitetos Fumihiko Maki e Rem Koolhaas propõem a retomada e a revisão do urbanismo moderno metropolitano. Eles partem do pressuposto de que a Forma arquitetônica seria vazia de significados intrínsecos. A apropriação por parte dos Poderes e, também, por parte das pessoas imprimiria à arquitetura significados, retirando dos arquitetos a responsabilidade sobre a totalidade do projeto e devolvendo-lhes a legitimidade da disciplina. Esta pesquisa percorre os caminhos seguidos por esses arquitetos a partir de suas referências orientais e ocidentais, mostrando como, em diversos momentos, os conceitos arquitetônicos dos dois mundos convergem, apontando a persistência do pensamento moderno.
By the end of the 1960s, large-scale architectural projects were discredited in West because they were associated with the established Power. Influenced by the ideals of May 1968, architects began searching alternative models based on the Historical language. They wanted to reach the autonomy of the architectural form by releasing it from their supposed ideological content, which was adhered to the abstract modern forms. Nevertheless, the post-modern approach, which was based on formal elements of the architectonical object and of the urban space, implied in the relinquishment of the metropolitan-scale. This urban-scale would be characterized by the references loss of organic formal structures. In Japan, modern research on large-scales was not interrupted, offering an important arsenal to the questions of contemporary urbanism. This dissertation verifies how the architects Fumihiko Maki and Rem Koolhaas propose the retaking and revision of modern metropolitan urbanism. They presuppose that architectonical Form is devoid of intrinsic meaning. Its appropriation by Power and also by people gives it meaning, removing architects responsibility on the totality of the project and giving them back the legitimacy of the discipline. This research follows the paths opened by these two architects through their Eastern and Western references, revealing the many instances in which architectonical concepts of both worlds converge, aiming to the persistence of modern thought.

Abstract:

This thesis primarily looks at estimation error problems and other related issues arising in connection with portfolio optimization. With some available assets, a portfolio program or optimizer seeks to distribute a fixed amount of capital among these available assets to optimize some cost function. In this regard, Markowitz portfolio selection basis defines the variance of the portfolio return to being that of the portfolio risk and tries to find an allocation that reduces or minimizes the risk subject to a target mean or expected return. Should the mean return vector and the covariance matrix of returns for the underlying assets be known, the Markowitz problem is said to have a closed-form solution. In practice, however, an estimation is made from historical data for unknown expected returns and the covariance matrix of the returns, and this brings into the domain several problems such as estimation problems and renders the Markowitz theory impracticable in real-life portfolio applications. Estimators necessary to remedy these problems would be made bare to show how possible it is to tackle such issues. In the concept demonstration sections, the analysis starts with the price data of 40 stocks and the S\&P index. The efficient frontier is introduced and used to show how the estimators take effect. Finally, implementation is made possible using the R Programming Language to demonstrate the necessary concepts with the conclusion presented at the end.

Abstract:

This was a field study using archived data to explore the factors contributing to success in respect of directors and managers at and around business unit board level in a diverse industrial group. The study first reviewed published models and other research relating to the nature of management competence and identified Spencer and Spencer’s (1993) Causal Flow Model which suggested that personal characteristics predict skill competencies which, in tum, predict performance in specific areas and then, by implication, overall performance. The author found similarities between Spencer and Spencer’s skill competencies and the constituents of what more recent writers labelled ’Contextual Performance’. Even more support was forthcoming from Bartram and others who postulated the ’Great Eight Competencies’, for which Baron. Bartram and Kurz (2003) found empirical exclusive one-to-one relationships with eight major psychological factors (i.e. General Mental Ability, the ’Big Five’ personality factors, power and achievement motivation). Using the elements of the Causal Flow Model as a template, the author then reviewed published research and prescriptive formulations to discover which ’dispositions’ (i.e. personality and cognitive attributes), skills, interpersonal behaviours and performance in specific areas might contribute to overall effectiveness, both with regard to managers and directors in general and in respect of three key functional role subsets: the unit sales/marketing director; the works director; and the finance director. The author discovered some findings and prescriptions which were purely descriptive of manager/director populations whilst others related to performance. On the basis of these findings the author postulated both normative and performance-related hypotheses for the current sample as a whole and for its specific role subsets. In testing the hypotheses, the author used 16PF Form A and its Five Factor Model (FFM) Solution as the primary dispositional measures. He used specification equations to derive Belbin Team Role scores and RIASEC Occupational Personality scores from the same instrument. He also identified normative data in respect ofMBTI Form G and FIRO-B. Interactive Behavioural data were also reported, using categories suggested by Rackham (1978). Skill competency data was obtained by an instrument devised by the author using a Repertory Grid type format but incorporating given constructs based on Wellin (1984). Ratings of performance in key result areas had been obtained in the context of annual appraisal. There were five indices of overall performance, two based on annual appraisal, another on job size, a fourth designed for research purposes and a fifth which averaged the other four.

Abstract:

Data types are a widely-used feature of functional programming languages that allow programmers to create abstractions and control branching computations. Instances of data types are introduced by applying one of a disjoint set of constructors and are eliminated by pattern matching on the constructor used. Dually, codata types are defined by their destructors, are introduced by copattern matching on their context, and eliminated by applying destructors. We extend motivation for codata types to include adding types that satisfy the extensional laws and adding an abstraction for constraining clients of code. We also improve on work implementing codata by developing an untyped compilation technique for codata that works for both call-by-name and call-by-value evaluation strategies and scales to simple and indexed type systems. We demonstrate the practicality of our technique by implementing a prototype compiler and a Haskell language extension.

Diese Erklärung kann jedoch nur der Anfang einer generellen Erklärung von Notwendigkeit sein, denn einerseits sind nicht nur analytische Urteile notwendig, sondern auch andere, andererseits basiert die Erklärung auf einer umstrittenen Theorie von Begriffen. Die Dissertation untersucht nun, ob und wie die Strategie, Notwendigkeit über das Verhältnis zwischen den Bestandteilen von Repräsentationen zu erklären dennoch ausgeweitet und verteidigt werden kann, um zum Beispiel auch a posteriori Notwendigkeiten und essentialistische Urteile zu erfassen. Indem auf die die Referenz-Relation konstituierenden Fakten Bezug genommen wird, wird gezeigt, dass eine solche Erklärung tatsächlich möglich ist. Notwendige Wahrheit ist demnach eine Eigenschaft von wahrheitsfähigen Repräsentationen, die diese aufgrund des Verhältnisses zwischen den für die Wahrheit der Repräsentation nötigen Fakten und den Fakten, die die Referenz der Bestandteile der Repräsentation bestimmen, hat. Stehen diese in einem bestimmten Verhältnis, wird die Wahrheit der Repräsentation garantiert. Nachdem dieser Ansatz auf eine Reihe von Beispielen angewendet wird, zeigen sich interessante Parallelen zu essentialistischen Theorien von Notwendigkeit und es lässt sich zeigen, dass der Ansatz das Verhältnis zwischen Essenzen und Notwendigkeit richtig darstellt und es sogar erlaubt, ein besseres Verständnis davon zu entwickeln, was Essenzen sind.
An explanation of why some truths are necessarily true needs to make intelligible how it is that a truth is guaranteed to be true. The thesis argues that a promising starting point for an explanation of necessity can be found in Kant’s containment-account of analyticity, for it explains how the truth of a judgment is guaranteed by its structure and the relationship between its constituents. This, however, can merely be a starting point for a general explanation of necessary truth, for it is both too narrow, and presupposes a contentious view of concepts. The thesis thus explores how the general strategy, explaining necessary truth by certain relationships between the constituents of representations, can be expanded to cover further necessary truths, for example a posteriori necessities and essentialist claims. It is argued that the explanation can be generalized by focussing on what it is that constitutes reference between representations and the objects they represent as well as how these representations come together to form truth-evaluable representations. Necessary truth, on this account, is a property of truth-evaluable representations which a representation has in virtue of the appropriate relationship between what is required for its truth, and the way in which the reference of its constituents is determined. The appropriate relationship guarantees the truth of the representation. After applying the theory to a range of examples, interesting parallels to essentialist accounts of necessity emerge and it is argued that the proposed explanation gets the relationship between essence and necessity right and may even be used to elucidate what essences are.

Abstract:

L’éthyl t-butyl éther (ETBE) le t-amyl méthyl éther (TAME) et surtout le méthyl-t-butyl(MTBE) sont les additifs éthérés les plus communément utilisés dans la composition des essences reformulées pour limiter la pollution par le plomb et améliorer le rendement de la combustion des essences. Ces composés peuvent polluer les nappes phréatiques du fait notamment de leur utilisation massive, leur forte solubilité dans l’eau, et leur récalcitrante. Bien que leur toxicité ne soit pas clairement établie ils confèrent néanmoins à l’eau, même à de très faibles concentrations, un goût et une odeur la rendant impropre à la consommation. Dans cette étude, des cultures mixtes capables de minéraliser en aérobiose l’ETBE seul et en mélange avec le MTBE et le TAME ont été isolées à partir d’un sol contaminé par l’essence sans plomb. Un autre consortium isolé également de ce même sol minéralise rapidement l’intermédiaire majeur des traitements chimiques, physiques et biologiques de l’ETBE et du MTBE : le t-butyl alcool (TBA). Ces consortia ont pu être acclimatés à la dégradation de ces même polluants (TBA, ETBE seul et en mélange avec le MTBE et le TAME) dans des conditions dénitrifiantes. La biodégradation dans ces conditions est moins performante que celle obtenue en aérobiose mais elle peut se révéler très intéressante pour le traitement in situ des nappes phréatiques. Les substrats dégradés dans différentes conditions de culture (en batch et en continu ; en aérobiose en en dénitrification) sont utilisés comme seules sources de carbone et d’énergie. Les vitesses de minéralisation obtenues sont supérieures à ceux cités dans la littérature. La TBA est toujours le composé le plus facilement biodégradé par rapport à l’ETBE et surtout au MTBE et au TAME ce qui est en accord avec les études antérieures. L’oxydation partielle par irradiation UV et en présence de H2O2 de l’ETBE du MTBE et du TAME (seuls et en mélange) dans un réacteur annulaire, en batch et en continu, permet de rompre rapidement la liaison éther et de générer des produits facilement biodégradables tels que le t-amyl alcool, le t-amyl alcool et l’acétone (même ceux qui n’ont pas pu être identifiés). Contrairement au procédé biologique, le procédé H2O2 /UV permet le clivage de la liaison éther des trois polluants sans aucune spécificité de réaction. De plus, les conditions optimales de photolyse de H2O2 sont compatibles avec l’application d’un traitement biologique en aval. Un couplage de procédé H2O2/UV et d’un procédé biologique est donc envisageable afin de limiter d’une part le coût lié au traitement chimique et d’augmenter d’autre part l’efficacité de traitement de ces composés.

Abstract:

My initial focus as a final project in the Creative Pulse was to begin to sing again. Singing fulfilled the three requirements of choice in a project: risk, rigor, and the requirement of having to do it. I had sung as a young man, and stopped as the result of listening to an adult tell me that I could not sing. During the following 23 years, I used percussion and became a dancer in order to express myself. The art forms of percussion and dance I was drawn to like a man is drawn to a woman that he must have. What about being drawn to an art form in order to continue existing? An artistic pursuit whose means of expression are a salvation? One can read about many artists who came into an art form out of necessity. Their life outside of expressing themselves was bleak and the art form became their cry. I by no means wish to place myself at the level of expertise of such artists that came to their art to survive, or to imply that I paid my dues to the extent that certain artists have (artists such as Hank Williams, or the Blues artist Robert Johnson, for example). I do mean to express through this paper my experience of the catharsis in singing country music and the Blues. My beginning singing came at a time when I really needed it; the music helped me through a difficult time. The title of the paper is Fall and Redemption: the Essence of Country Music for this reason. It is in Narrative form, foot printing my process and discovery of the music. I attempted to combine lifes experiences with the discovery of the music. The experiences were the inspiration behind playing the music. The essence of country music and the Blues is its sincerity, and I hope that I have combined my lifes narrative with the artistic process effectively, as the time period (December 2005 to June 2007) was a time in which art was defined by life, and life was defined by art.

Abstract:

My purpose in entering the UCF MFA program was to further explore and develop my passion for photography. During my time in the program, I developed my methodology--from having the traditional photography paradigm ingrained in my mind (and wanting to fit into it) to accepting and valuing my own unique process. I construct installations using diverse imagery and non-traditional presentation. In my installations, one may witness a reflection of the contemporary pace of image perception--fragmented, complex, abundant, and disordered. Together, images and their arrangements are used to create a unified piece that satisfies a new system within apparent disorder. The resulting installations summon the sensation of thinking and processing information in a new way, allowing for re-contextualization of fragmented imagery. Technology has pushed photography to evolve. Previously held traditional notions of photography as art (e.g., "single telling moment" photographs and similar subject matter) are now being confronted by a vernacular of "many telling moments". The current state of the art world is in flux, and is greatly influenced by the faster pace set by technology; I coin our new vernacular Image Culture.

Abstract:

As computing technology has become a vital part of everyday life, studies have increasingly scrutinized the underlying meaning of computational things. As different devices become interwoven with daily practices and routines, there is a growing interest in understanding not only their functional meaning in computational terms but also their meaning in relation to other non-computation artefacts. This thesis investigates how people relate to artefacts and how their individual values and attitudes affect this relationship. The analysis is based on four ethnographic studies, which look at the richness of ordinary interactions with technology to understand the impact of technology upon practice and experience. The process through which humans develop a relationship to artefacts is framed as a continuous series of encounters, through which the individual constantly reshapes their relationship to things. Artefacts are seen as lines in the mesh of everyday life, and the encounters are the intersections between lines. This approach–grounded in phenomenology and paired with an anthropological understanding of everyday life–reconceptualises understanding of the processes of adaption, meaning-making, disposing and recycling. The work reveals how human relations to all kinds of things–in the form of meaning–is continually transforming. Core to this understanding is the cultural relative essence that becomes perceived of the artefacts themselves. This essence deeply affects the way we encounter and thus interact with technology, as well as objects more broadly. In the daily interaction with computing devices we can observe that computing technology alters the mesh on a different level than non-computational artefacts: digital interfaces pull our lines together, bundle experiences an affect how we encounter the material and the social world. This enables computing devices to have meanings distinct from non-computing technology. To go further, computing is itself a mode of existence – a crucial difference in things that helps us understand the complexity of the material world.

Abstract:

Today, students are victims of stress associated with learning and unhealthy lifestyles. In addition, in our time Internet technology and other types of hanging out dominate, which do not involve mobility. Therefore, the importance of physical activity for students cannot be ignored. Now aerobic-fitness is widespread among young people. But not everyone can determine exactly what is hidden by the term.
