Mania, Foteini. "Contextualizing Atrocity : The Ottoman Greeks' Suffering through the Athenian Newspapers Estia and Empros, May 1919-December 1922." Thesis, Uppsala universitet, Historiska institutionen, 2020. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:uu:diva-411093.
Full textAbstract:
The present thesis offers an innovative perspective analysing the perception of Turkish atrocities against the Ottoman Greek communities during the temporal period May 1919-December 1922 through the Athenian newspapers Estia and Empros, which were committed to the ubiquitous Greek irredentist vision of the Megali Idea. Delving into theories which emphasize on the political nature of nationalism, on national mobilisation and on the exploitation of mass communication by the elite, this thesis attempts to elaborate on the inclusion of the Ottoman Greeks into an expanded Greek nation-state, based on the principle of self-determination. Hence, from the Greek Press' perspective, the presented Turkish atrocities against a part of the Greek nation and potential subjects of a broadened Greek state had been contextualized on the basis of Greek nationalism. The study shows that, despite the widespread and divided Greek communities in the Ottoman Empire/Turkey, Estia and Empros were declaring that their common denominator had been their Greek self-determination and the fact that all these communities were viewing the Greek state and the Greek army as their guarantors for their safety. Adding to the agents of Hellenism also the Ecumenical Patriarchate, Estia and Empros were highlighting the crucial role of these agents towards the endangered Ottoman Greek communities. Thus, the presentation of the respective information in the newspapers was leaning on this theoretical schema.

Full textAbstract:
This study is intended to illustrate how the reformist and revolutionary directions in the labor movement are manifested and visualized in the empirical material with regard to angry culture, thus contributing to an understanding of the informative importance of the image. It is clear that the investigated material in the form of social democratic and communist 1 May posters from the period 1922-1948 reflects its time (the interwar period to the post-war era) with regard to angry culture. It is not the aesthetic aspect that is central, but the historical and political perspective in terms of information transmission. This study focuses on how to understand a historical period through an image material. The study aims to answer the question of what kind of information is communicated built on an analysis based on a combination of semiotics and hegemony analysis of the empirical material. Using the semiotic concepts denotation and connotation, the posters are analyzed in detail in the image analysis in combination with Stuart Hall's three hypothetical positions (codes), Antonio Gramsci’s hegemony concept, primarily in the form of “war of position” and “historic blocs”, is used to understand the historical period investigated. This method triangulation increases the credibility of the results. As far as the study and its results are concerned, it can be noted that the social democratic 1 May posters before 1936 (Social Democrats’ power access) with regard to “sublimed wrath” mainly represent consensus across class boundaries. The communist 1 May posters from that period, however, primarily represent “class war” and stand for “open anger”. After the Social Democrats’ access to power, it is clear that they constitute a historic bloc and that the communists are forced to adopt a more defensive approach, pronounced in drained paroles with a vague content. The conclusion with regard to the visual transmission of political and historical information and messages regarding social democratic and communistic 1 May posters from 1922-1948, based on socialist angry cultures is that the period between the wars was characterized by class struggle versus consensus, World War ll reduced everything to “hold together” and post-war time represents the starting point for the welfare state, as a successful consequence of the social democratic “dignity project”.

Chung, Hilary. "The portrayal of women in Mao Dun's early fiction 1927-1932." Thesis, Durham University, 1991. http://etheses.dur.ac.uk/6244/.
Full textAbstract:
It is the prevailing critical assessment of Mao Dun's early creative writing that he displays a singular insight in his portrayal of women. This thesis seeks not only to challenge this assessment by a predominantly male body of criticism but also the assumptions on which it is based, namely that an intellectual sympathy for the women’s cause necessarily implies a transcendence of the patriarchal attitudes with which society is imbued. The major short stories and novellas written between 1927 and 1932 are analysed systematically to identify Mao Dun's underlying attitudes towards women. His portrayal of women is assessed from the following perspectives:~ his autobiographical accounts of his encounters with women in his political and personal life and his deliberate association of his female comrades with his creative inspiration;- traditional Chinese perceptions of women and gender roles as these are manifested in the classical tradition;-- Mao Dun's numerous articles and essays on the women's question written during the nineteen twenties and his work in the women's section of the Party in Shanghai;- Mao Dun's attempt to reconcile his conflicting sympathies for feminism and socialism. This thesis relies for its methodology on Western feminist criticism. While the approach is maintained, in its application to the context of early twentieth century China, its eurocentrism in terms of cultural assumptions and perceptions of gender has been replaced by a definition of Chinese values. Since a fundamental prerequisite, of feminist criticism is the assessment of the writer in his/her own cultural context, a historical survey of the portrayal of women in traditional literature is provided to serve as a standard against which to measure Mao Dun’s portrayal.

On prend aujourd'hui conscience de l'importance de la periode qu'a representee l'entre-deux guerres, avec l'arrivee - principalement en france, en grande-bretagne et aux etats-unis - des juifs qui avaient fait jusqu'alors le cinema allemand. L'apport de ces exiles aux cinemas des pays d'accueil a ete decisif, esthetiqsuement et economiquement. L'idee d'un syncretisme - utopique ou reel - d'elements culturels de diverses provenances a conduit ophuls a chercher les moyens d'etablir les bases d'un nouvel espace culturel europeen. Etudiant les interactions qui marquent le condition de l'artiste vivant au confluent de plusieurs cultures, nous conjuguons les trois niveaux d'apprehension de l'histoire de l'art - du cinema : la realite economiqsue de la production; l'impact socio-culturel, qui restitue aux oeuvres leur environnement et leur accueil; enfin, l'elaboration des idees et des formes, pour restituer le courant de conscience d'un artiste au travail. Notre approche est chronologique : de mars 1933 - quand ophuls doit s'exiler - a juillet 1941 - lorsqu'il est conduit a quitter le continent europeen pour se refugier en amerique. Apres un premier contact avec le cinema francais en 1933, assez bref, ophuls a parcouru l'europe de 1934 a 1936, au plus fort de la crise economique et sociale; en 1937, il parvient a se fixer en france, et participe a un cinema francais renove par l'apport desToday we can realize the importance of the period between the two world wars, with the arrival - mainly in france, great britain and the united states - of the jews who have animated the german cinema. The contribution of these exiles to the cinema of the countries of refuge was decisive, aesthetically and economically. The career of max ophuls, an outstanding example, raises the question of the relations between the french cinema and the german cinema. The idea of a syncretism - utopian or real - of cultural elements of various ofigine led ophuls to look for the ways of establishing the bases of a new cultural space in europe. Studying the interactions which characterize the condition of the artist living at the junction of several cultures, we bring together the three levels of apprehension of the history of art - the art of the cinema : the economic reality of production; the socio-cultural impact, which restitutes to the work its environment and its reception; finally, the elaboration of ideas and forms, in order to restitute the stream of consciousness of a film- maker at work. Our approach is chronological : from march 1933 - when ophuls had to leave germany - to july 1941 - when he had to leave the european continent, to take refuge in the united states. After a first

Full textAbstract:
1920-talet var en tid av turbulenta förändringar i det västerländska samhället. Kvinnors rättigheter och möjligheter att styra över sina egna liv förändrades drastiskt. Tidigare årtionden hade i stor utsträckning sett på kvinnan som mamma och husmoder, men nya kvinnoroller börjar under 1920-talet bli accepterade. Bonniers Veckotidning var en tidskrift som publicerades på 1920-talet i Sverige. Detta arbete behandlar hur kvinnan som mamma och husmoder skildras i just denna veckotidning. Undersökningen utförs med underrubrikerna Utseendet, Moderskapet och äktenskapet och Kvinnan i hem och hus. Bonniers Veckotidning visar sig innehålla en röd tråd gällande hur kvinnan som mamma och husmoder ska vara, hon ska vara händig, ständigt närvarande, naturlig och alltid sätta familjen i första rummet. Kvinnor som inte prioriterar familj och hem ses som något exotiskt och inte helt rumsrent. Att kvinnan som läser Bonniers Veckotidning är mamma och hustru framstår i tidningen som helt självklart, det speglas i både artiklar och reklam. Kvinnan ska alltså vara en fokuserad hustru och mamma, vara naturlig och rar, vara duktig på att laga mat och ordna saker i hemmet.

Full textAbstract:
This study is centered on the social question as addressed and defined by Ernst Troeltsch (1865--1923) and by Max Weber (1864--1920); it pertains mainly to the rise of religious modernity and its conditions of possibility; based on a comparative analysis of the socio1ogy of religion of Troeltsch and Weber, it deals with the question how religious modernity has to be thought from a sociological perspective.Along with modern historical science and scientific rationality in general, the social question challenged religion in the nineteenth century; this study brings out the originality of Troeltsch's vision of a modernity compatible with belief in the future of religion.
Motivated by the debate on the social question, Troeltsch's concern was the social foundations of the Christian doctrine in its relation to secular domains of activity, and this calls for a new outlook on the issue of the relation between religion and culture.
Eventually, the comparative approach of the sociological thought of Weber and Troeltsch pursued in the present work, while providing new insight into Weber's views on religion, brings about a better understanding of Troeltsch as a theologian and a philosopher of religion.

Full textAbstract:
In the works of Weber, Freud, and Foucault we find a distinct depiction of the relation between the self and modern civilization. This thesis describes that relation as "entrapment": the self has become mired in the life orders of modernity and is unable to reign over them. The primary hazard of these orders is their imposition of subjectivities that are highly circumscribed, subjectivities more responsive to external functions and imperatives than to the expression of individuality. Underlying this outlook is a new consciousness of time; in lieu of evolutionary and progressive theories of history, a tragic view emerges. History is seen as devoid of any deterministic necessity, yet its collective products have become too weighty and entrenched to allow for radical, over-arching political transformations. The thesis examines how, beginning with these shared presuppositions, Weber, Freud, and Foucault develop very different understandings of entrapment, understandings that pose fundamental challenges to one another.

Mardellat, Patrick. "L'analyse économique du bonheur chez Carl Menger et Max Weber." Paris 10, 2004. http://www.theses.fr/2004PA100133.
Full textAbstract:
L'analyse économique du bonheur est le thème de recherche de ce travail d'histoire de la pensée économique. Il s'agit de retrouver l'héritage pratique de la pensée économique autour de la question du bonheur. C'est dans la tradition de pensée de langue allemande que celui-ci est repéré. Les œuvres de Carl Menger et Max Weber sont resitués dans cette tradition et arrachés à leur réception habituelle, néoclassique pour le premier, sociologique pour le second. La systématique de leur pensée économique articule une théorie pure non-mathématique saisissant l'origine, la fonction et l'essence des phénomènes économiques, et une histoire des transformations des formes de la vie économique. Contrairement à la théorie quantitative du bien être centrée sur la production, l'analyse économique du bonheur humain est centrée sur la consommation dont le caractère fondamental est ainsi affirmé. C'est l'action de consommation dans des institutions qui manifeste la possibilité du bonheur économiqueThe economic analysis of happiness is the theme of this historical research in the field of economic thought. The aim is to find the practical legacy attached to the question of human happiness in the economic thought. This analysis is made within the German tradition. The works of Carl Menger and Max Weber are replaced in this tradition, contrary to the way they are traditionally viewed, a neoclassical one for Menger and a sociological one for Weber. The pattern of their economic thought hinges on a non-mathematical pure theory grasping the origin, function and essence of economic phenomena and on a history of the transformation of the forms of economic life. Unlike the quantitative theory of well being centred on the production, the economic analysis of human happiness is centred on the act of consumption whose fundamental character is emphasized. It is thus the action of consumption in institutions that highlights the possibility of economic happiness

Lambret, Marc. "Habermas lecteur de Weber et la question du fondement des valeurs." Paris 4, 1997. http://www.theses.fr/1997PA040137.
Full textAbstract:
Jurgen Habermas, avec son "éthique de discussion", est aujourd'hui une référence pour ceux qui veulent fonder une morale laïque unifiée. A ce projet, l'idée du "nouveau polythéisme" des valeurs, formulée par Max Weber en son temps, semble s'opposer directement. C'est pourtant chez Weber que Habermas trouve l'inspiration pour interpréter la modernisation occidentale comme le déploiement des ressources de la raison, en particulier de sa compétence pour la résolution des questions morales. Mais l'analyse précise du texte habermassien montre que l'idée de rationalité morale-pratique est contre-productive, et que Weber donne surtout à comprendre de la modernité sans religion le paradoxe d'un rationalisme déraisonnable. L'idée de la modernité comme âge du dépassement définitif de la religion vient de la foi au christ Jésus, qui se réalise dans ce qui demeure une religion; sans la foi au christ cette idée se retrouve sans fondement ni perspective. Quant à l'idée que les hommes peuvent et doivent communiquer pour s'entendre raisonnablement sur les questions morales, et sur ce qui fonde les valeurs, elle est d'actualité, mais elle n'est pas spécifiquement moderne. C'est, en somme, une idée religieuse élémentaireIn his "discussion ethics", Jorgen Habermas stands to-day as reference for those who wish to put the base of a secular and united moral doctrine. The idea of a "new polytheism" of values, as it was expressed by Max Weber, in his days, seems to be directly opposed to this project. Nevertheless, it's in Weber that Habermas has found the brainwave to take the western modernization as a display of reason possibilities, for he is particularly competent at solving moral problems. But the precise analysis of Habermas' text proves that the idea of practical-moral rationability is unproductive. Weber helps mostly to understand in modernity without religion the paradox of unreasonable rationalism. The concept of modernity as a stage of a rational surpass of religion comes from the faith in Jesus Christ, this is fulfilled in a true, solid, religion. Without believing in Christ, this concept has neither base nor prospect. The idea that people can and must communicate in order to reach a reasonable agreement on moral questions is in the air, though not specifically modern. On the whole it's an elementary religious view point

Approved for public release; distribution is unlimitedHF surface current radar (CODAR) data from two shore-based radar sites were collected and combined to form vector estimates of the near-surface currents in Monterey Bay from March to May 1992. CODAR-derived currents are measures of the flow in the upper 1 m of the water column. The springtime mean flow pattern in the Bay and it's variability based on a maximum of 760 three-hourly observations at a nominal 2 km spatial resolution are presented. Results for each month and the canonical day are also shown. The mean patterns show strong southward flowing onshore currents (=20 cm.s(-1)) in the outer bay and near zero mean flow nearshore and northwest of Moss Landing. The variability is, however, large with standard deviations typically twice the mean. The canonical day shows strong (=4- cm.s(-1)) onshore flow over the entire Bay in the late nighttime period. These flow patterns combine to produce the observed mean flow. CODAR data show energy at a semi-diurnal tidal periods (12.3 and 11.9 hours), diurnal period (24 hours) and a longer period (17 days). CODAR data is compared to data from a moored buoy. Low-passed time series are well correlated. Unfiltered time series have higher correlations at diurnal and semidiurnal tidal frequencies. CODAR-derived surface currents and the winds are highly correlated at Near-diurnal frequencies corresponding to the daily sea breeze forcing.

Full textAbstract:
Alors que les avant-gardes artistiques de la première moitié du 20e siècle avaient amorcé un rapprochement voire une collaboration avec les mouvements politiques de leur temps, le mouvement situationniste (ici considéré dès sa naissance avec l’Internationale lettriste en 1952 et jusqu’à la dissolution de l’Internationale situationniste en 1972) se caractérise par la fusion achevée de l’esthétique et du politique. Dans cette perspective, notre travail a pour objet de démontrer comment le spectacle, pensé d’abord par les situationnistes dans le cadre d’une critique de la représentation artistique et de la contemplation passive et compensatoire qu’elle induit chez celui qui l’appréhende, s’est finalement révélé être pour eux le paradigme même du rapport des individus aux produits de leur activité en régime capitaliste ; comment la dérive et la psychogéographie, pensées dans le contexte du dépassement de l’art, leur ont aussi servi à contester l’ordre social dominant en procédant à une critique de la vie quotidienne, et à préfigurer la société communiste de l’avenir ; et enfin, comment cette préfiguration utopique a été constamment partagée entre une vision futuriste des perspectives ouvertes par le développement technologique et un romantisme révolutionnaire qui puisait son inspiration dans le passé de l’humanité, dans les sociétés nomades et médiévalesArtistic avant-gardes of the first part of the 20th century had started to bring closer, and for some of them to collaborate to the contemporary political movements, but the situationist movement (which begun in 1952 with the foundation of the Lettrist International, and ended in 1972 with the auto-dissolution of the Situationist International) was characterized by the complete fusion between art and politics. From this viewpoint, our work demonstrates how spectacle, which was initially used by situationists to designate the artistic representation and the passive and compensatory contemplation that accompanies it, proved to be for them the paradigmatic experience of the modern man faced with the products of his activity in the capitalist society. We also demonstrate how dérive and psychogeography, which were initially thought in the context of the supersession of art, were used by situationists as means to protest against the established order, making a critique of everyday life, and to imagine another form of society. Finally, we show how this vision of another society was divided between a futuristic utopia based on the technological development and a revolutionary romanticism inspired by the examples of the nomadic peoples and the medieval societies

La arquitectura contemporánea, más que representar una función en cuanto al uso que
alberga, es una respuesta a una realidad específica, y que en cierta medida, esta
respuesta puede tener mayor valor en aspectos sociales y culturales, que funcionales.
La marginalidad, la desatención en servicios, la carencia de equipamiento urbano y la

en la zona de estudio, donde la degradación social está ligada directamente a la
desconexión funcional con el resto de la ciudad.
El “Centro de formación integral para el deporte” que se propone, busca ser una
respuesta a la realidad que se vive en los barracones. Es una respuesta, que evidencia
la intención de revalorar y reactivar una zona segregada desde su origen para
integrarla y hacerla partícipe del resto de la ciudad.
Para llegar a ello, se propone dos intervenciones a escalas distintas que pretenden
integrar la zona de estudio con el resto de la ciudad, proveyéndola de actividades
deportivas, zonas de esparcimientos, áreas verdes, zonas de playa y un amplio
malecón a desnivel a lo largo del borde marítimo.

O modo de funcionamento é controlado pela aplicação através de uma aproximação cross-layer. O desenvolvimento deste protocolo foi efectuado de modo a permitir a presença de nós assíncronos na vizinhança de nós síncronos, possibilitando a existência de um reduzido tempo de associação e baixa interferência durante esse processo. Os protocolos MAC existentes utilizam um método passivo para associar um nó assíncrono a um cluster estático, esperando pela recepção de um beacon. Neste protocolo é proposta uma aproximação activa que permite a um nó enviar pacotes de dados cerca de 300ms após entrar na vizinhança de um nó estático, praticamente sem existência de perda de dados nas ligações síncronas já existentes. O desempenho do protocolo foi analisado através de simulações e tendo em conta vários parâmetros: tempo de associação, débito e consumo energético. Foram desenvolvidos vários modelos teóricos de modo a consolidar os resultados das simulações, de entre os quais assume maior relevo o referente ao tempo de associação.

Full textAbstract:
The purpose of this paper is to make a suggestion to deontic logic: Respect Hume\'s Law, the answer to the is-ought problem that says that all ought-talk is completely cut off from is-talk. Most deontic logicians have sought another solution: Namely, the solution that says that we can bridge the is-ought gap. Thus, a century\'s worth of research into these normative systems of logic has lead to many attempts at doing just that. At the same time, the field of deontic logic has come to be plagued with paradox. My argument essentially depends upon there being a substantive relation between this betrayal of Hume and the plethora of paradoxes that have appeared in two-adic (binary normative operator), one-adic (unary normative operator), and zero-adic (constant normative operator) deontic systems, expressed in the traditions of von Wright, Kripke, and Anderson, respectively. My suggestion has two motivations: First, to rid the philosophical literature of its puzzles and second, to give Hume\'s Law a proper formalization. Exploring the issues related to this project also points to the idea that maybe we should re-engineer (e.g., further generalize) our classical calculus, which might involve the adoption of many-valued logics somewhere down the line.Master of Arts

Full textAbstract:
Through an exploration of both sculptural and thought processes undertaken in making my Masters exhibition, ‘Hippocampus’, I unpack some possibilities, instabilities, and limitations inherent in representation and visual perception. This thesis explores the Hippocampus as image (seahorse) and concept (brain-structure involved in cognitive mapping of space). Looking at Gilles Deleuze’s writings on representation, I will expand on the notion of the map as being that which does not define and fix a structure or meaning, but rather is open, extendable and experimental. I explore the becoming, rather than the being, of image and concept. The emphasis here is on process, non-representation, and fluidity of meaning. This is supportive of my personal affirmation of the practice and process of art-making as research. I will refer to the graphic prints of Maurits Cornelis Escher as a means to elucidate a visual contextualization of my practical work, particularly with regard to the play with two- and three-dimensional space perception. Through precisely calculated ‘experiments’ that show up the partiality of our visual perception of space, Escher alludes to things that either cannot actually exist as spatial objects or do exist, but resist representation. Similarly I will explore how my own sculptures, although existing in space resist a fixed representation and suggest ideas of other spaces, non-spaces; an in-between space that does not pin itself down and become fixed to any particular image, idea, objector representation.

This thesis is an attempt at an analysis of Andrzej Wajda's political films, Man of Marble, Man of Iron and Danton in a broad cultural and historical context. The manuscript is divided into five chapters. The first chapter, "The Political Film of Andrzej Wajda--Issues of Methodology", presents a theoretical basis for the discussion of political film. Bakhtin's dialogism complemented by linguistic pragmatics provides the methodology used in the thesis to illustrate the dialogical process of meaning formation in political films of Andrzej Wajda. Chapter two discusses Wajda as the carrier of the political message, while chapters three, four and five, respectively, contain the historical, the dramatis personae and the aesthetic discourses in the films under study.

Le but de notre recherche n’est pas seulement de déterminer les modèles dominants de l’ekphrasis dans la poésie, mais aussi d’éclairer quelques aspects théoriques de la description des œuvres plastiques : le statut générique d'un texte ekphrastique ; la dimension herméneutique de l’ekphrasis et la communication/transposition intersémiotique, intertextuelle et métatextuelle. La sémantique du texte poétique est inséparable du lien avec l’œuvre plastique qui représente l’objet de la description littéraireFrom the most ancient monuments of literature to most recent, one finds the process of ekphrasis - description of real or imaginary plastic art works. The main subject of our comparative study are the ekphrastic poetic works of six poets belonging to three linguistic zones and thus to three different literary traditions: the French poets Charles Baudelaire and Yves Bonnefoy, the American poets William Carlos Williams and John Ashbery and the Macedonian poets Slavko Janevski and Vlada Urosevic. The aim of the research is not only to determine the dominant models of ekphrasis in their poetry, but also to clarify some theoretical aspects of the description of plastic art works: the generic statute of an ekphrastic text; the hermeneutic dimension of the ekphrasis and the intersemiotic, intertextual and metatextual communication/transposition. The semantics of the poetic text is inseparable from the bond with the works of fine arts, which represent the object of literary description

Essa dissertação estuda a poesia do livro O Estranho, 1952, do poeta paraense Max Martins, e seu entrelace com a poesia moderna. Para isso, consideramos que a poética de Max dialoga com os textos de poetas brasileiros de renome nacional e universal. De acordo com Haroldo de Campos, a relação de uma poética com a tradição literária e o projeto que o texto artístico necessita é um encontro entre códigos, em uma rara capacidade de transferir mesmo as efemérides mais íntimas para o horizonte do fazer, em criação, na luta corpo-a-corpo com a palavra. Essa luta com o verbo é parte fundamental no jogo poético de Max Martins. Em O Estranho, ao questionar o lugar da poesia no seu próprio tempo, o poeta desmembra o texto e revela o homem e a escrita à margem. A poesia do estranho - o termo sugere o gauche drummondiano - constitui um "dialeto" talvez ininteligível para alguns. Como sugere o poema inicial dessa obra, a linguagem pode até mesmo ser incompreensível, daí o vocábulo "estranho" (do título do livro e do primeiro poema), ou seja, uma linguagem de choque, que se estranha com a realidade, no entanto, é o que quer o poeta, a transmutação da realidade cotidiana no poético. Neste trabalho, traçamos os aspectos relevantes da lírica moderna a partir de um estudo sobre os conceitos de Moderno, Modernidade e Modernismo, passando rapidamente pelo modernismo no Brasil, para chegar ao modernismo paraense e, especificamente, à geração de Max. Finalmente, propomos uma interpretação dos poemas do livro (analisando-os sobretudo à luz da leitura crítico-reflexiva de Benedito Nunes, primeiro crítico dos poemas de Max Martins). Foi feito também um histórico editorial dos poemas antes e depois da publicação de O Estranho. Com isso, pretendemos contribuir para os estudos literários no que tange falar mais demoradamente sobre os aspectos importantes da poesia de Max Martins, especialmente sobre sua iniciação no mundo poético.
This dissertation studies the poetry of the book O Estranho, 1952, the poet from Para Max Martin and his knot with modern poetry. For this, we consider the poetry of Max dialogues with the texts of Brazilian poets of national renown and universal. According to Haroldo de Campos, a poetic relationship with the literary tradition and the project that requires the artistic text is a meeting between codes, in a rare ability to transfer the ephemeris even closer to the horizon of doing in the creation, fighting hand to hand with the word. This struggle with the verb is a fundamental part in the game poetic Max Martins. O Estranho, by questioning the place of poetry in his own time, the poet breaksdown the text and reveals the man and writing in the margins. The poetry of the stranger – the gauche drummondiano term suggests – is a “dialect” perhaps uninteligible to some. As the poem suggests that initial work, the language can even be incomprehensible, hence the word “stranger” (the title of the book and the first poem), in other words, a language shock, which is strange with reality, however, is whatever the poet, the transmutation of everyday reality in poetry. In this paper, we draw the relevant aspects of modern lyricism from a study on the concepts of Modern, Modernity and Modernism, passing quickly through modernism in Brazil, for to get to Pará modernism, and specifically the generation of Max. Finally, we propose an interpretation of the poems from the book (especially analyzing them in light of critical and reflective reading Benedito Nunes, the first critic of poems by Max Martins). Was also made publishing history of the poems before and after the publication of O Estranho. With this, we intend to contribute to literary studies regarding talk more al lenght about the important aspects of the poetry of Max Martins, especially about his initiation into the poetic world.

Full textAbstract:
Mary Sumner (1828-1921) founded the Anglican Mothers’ Union, which originated as a parish mothers’ meeting in 1876, and followed the Girls’ Friendly Society as the second women’s organisation to be sanctioned by the Church of England. By 1921, the Mothers’ Union had a membership extending across the British Empire and transnationally. Mary Sumner sought to educate mothers in Christian values and pedagogy so that they might educate their children to be future citizens of empire. Her life trajectory occurred against a context of evangelical religious revival, contest over matters of doctrinal authority, the proliferation of women’s philanthropy, the growth of the British Empire and changes in education characterised by state intervention in working-class elementary schooling and the negotiation of educational provision for middle- class girls. This thesis uses primary source material to build on institutional histories of the Mothers’ Union to situate Mary Sumner in networks, emphasise gender and class as mediating of opportunity, and envisage her religious ‘mission’ as educational. The thesis draws on the thinking tools of Pierre Bourdieu, habitus, field and capital, to analyse Mary Sumner’s negotiation of constraint and agency in relation to the fields of religion, mission (understood as religious and philanthropic activism ‘at home’ and overseas) and education through which womanhood runs as a connecting theme. Bourdieu’s concept of reproduction is used to position Mary Sumner in relation to the operation of power across domestic, local and global spaces. The thesis concludes that using Bourdieu’s ‘thinking tools’ highlights how Mary Sumner used opportunities for women within her temporal and socio-cultural context in ways that were complicit with notions of womanhood reflective of patriarchal domination and accepting of hierarchies of class and ‘race’, yet were innovative in her achievement of access for an organisation of women within Anglicanism that was recognised for its educational work.

"Policy innovation, asymmetric decentralization and local economic development in post-Mao China : case studies of China-Singapore Suzhou Industrial Park and Kunshan Economic and Technological Development Zone." Thesis, London School of Economics and Political Science (University of London), 2006. http://etheses.lse.ac.uk/1929/.
Full textAbstract:
The Chinese government's economic reforms over the last couple of decades have led to rapid economic growth for the country. However, many empirical studies on the post-Mao China show that the economic transition towards market economy is in large part actually propelled by active local governments, which are encouraged to make policy innovations in order to promote better local economic development. This thesis aims to offer an understanding on how, why and under what circumstances the local governments of post-Mao China - while still controlled by a one-party communist regime- are able to make policy innovations to deal with business operating under market transition conditions. Theoretically, the phenomenon of local policy innovation can be analyzed with a framework involving three dimensions. First, local policy innovation can be seen to take place in order to respond to challenges presented by the changing macro development environments. Second, local policy innovation can be understood as a consequence of changing responsibilities and competencies between central and local governments. Third, local policy innovation may be related to the dynamics of local-central strategic interactions. Empirically, with the contextual approach as its chosen methodology, this theoretical framework is applied to two successful cases of innovation in Jiangsu province within the Yangtze Delta of post-Mao China: Kunshan Economic and Technological Development Zone (KETZ); and China-Singapore Suzhou Industrial Park (CSSIP). The history of these two national development zones identifies the former as a case of a 'locally initiated project' while the latter represents an example of 'local implementation of a centrally initiated project'. In terms of types of local-central dynamic interaction, 'state- intention to tolerate', 'ex-post state endorsement', and 'ex-ante state adoption' were seen sequentially in the case of KETZ, while 'marginalizing the local', 'local obedience', and 'local flexibility' operated simultaneously in the case of CSSIP. The thesis concludes that in post-Mao China significant local policy innovations were able to take place when localities encountered structural changes, including China's reengaging with globalization, changing local-central relations, and serious territorial competition. Actions of local policy innovations were ignited by agents, across scales, whose self-interests were highly involved in local economic development in the context of asymmetric decentralization. More specifically, in the post-Mao China context of economic decentralization to the local combined with political centralization under the party, career-minded local officials utilized their decentralized 'economic resources' to strive for more development, which in turn became their 'political capital' with the upper-level government to get themselves promoted.

La migranya és un mal de cap primari, episòdic crònic i incapacitant molt comú a la població. Ha estat identificada per la Organització Mundial de la Salut (OMS) entre les principals causes d'incapacitat. La migranya té una etiologia complexa, amb contribució de múltiples gens d'efecte menor i factors ambientals que conjuntament determinen una certa predisposició a la patologia. No obstant, hi ha formes rares de migranya en què la causa és monogènica, amb un únic gen d'efecte major que determina l'aparició del fenotip.L'objectiu principal d'aquest treball ha estat aprofundir en l'estudi de la base genètica de les formes monogèniques de migranya i més específicament, identificar nous loci responsables del fenotip migranyós i nous al.lels mutats en gens ja reconeguts com a responsables d'aquest trastorn genèticament heterogeni.
D'una banda, s'ha mapat el gen responsable de la migranya, de forma independent, en dues famílies catalanes extenses no emparentades, amb una herència dominant, a la regió cromosòmica 14q32. Tanmateix, la identificació del gen causant de la malaltia en aquestes famílies resta encara per resoldre. D'altra banda, s'han identificat 9 mutacions en el gen CACNA1A, totes elles de canvi de sentit, en individus espanyols amb diferents variants de migranya (HM, MA i CPS) i atàxia episòdica de tipus 2 (EA2). Tres de les mutacions són responsables del fenotip FHM, una de les quals es va identificar en un individu que manifestava símptomes de BPT i que va evolucionar a BPV i finalment a FHM. La quarta mutació es va trobar en un pacient que des dels 7 mesos de vida manifestava episodis d'hipotèrmia amb símptomes acompanyants i que podria correspondre a una variant, encara no ben caracteritzada clínicament, de CPS. S'han detectat dos canvis més en pacients amb manifestacions d'EA2. El setè canvi es va detectar en un pacient afectat d'EA2 i FHM, i el vuitè en un pacient amb EA2 i MA. La novena mutació s'ha identificat en dues pacients amb MA, mare i filla, que pertanyen a una família en què segrega FHM. En aquest darrer cas s'han pogut fer, en col·laboracio, estudis funcionals de la proteïna mutada, que revelen que determinades variacions en el gen CACNA1A poden tenir un paper modificador i no causant, com fins ara s'havia pensat, del fenotip migranyós.
L'estudi de les formes monogèniques de migranya presenta diverses complicacions com l'heterogeneïtat genètica, la variabilitat en l'expressió clínica, la penetració incompleta, les fenocòpies i les genocòpies i l'efecte dels factors ambientals, el seu caràcter episòdic i la manca de marcadors biològics, la variabilitat de la simptomatologia en funció de l'edat de l'individu, la dificultat d'agrupar pacients en categories fenotípicament homogènies, la difícil obtenció del teixit d'interès -sistema nerviós central- i la dificultat d'interpretar i reproduir una simptomatologia basada en el testimoni del pacient, en animals d'experimentació.
Els estudis de lligament que es presenten en aquest treball proporcionen evidències significatives de l'existència d'un nou locus comú a FHM i MA en dues famílies catalanes. La identificació d'un nou locus de migranya i els resultats de l'anàlisi mutacional realitzada en el gen CACNA1A augmenten la reconeguda heterogeneïtat genètica no al·lèlica i al·lèlica de les formes monogèniques i rares de migranya. Identificar el nou gen de migranya que hem localitzat al cromosoma 14 i estudiar la seva rellevància entre els pacients migranyosos a nivell espanyol i mundial contribuirà de ben segur a una millor comprensió dels mecanismes moleculars de la migranya i també a la identificació de possibles dianes terapèutiques en benefici dels pacients que la pateixen.
Migraine is a chronic, episodic and disabling prymary headache. The World Health Organization (WHO) rated migraine among the most disabling chronic disorders. Migraine has a complex etiology involving multiple susceptibility genes and environmental factors. However, there are rare forms of migraine in which the cause is monogenic.
The main goal of this work has been to study the genetic basis on the monogenic forms of migraine and more specifically, to identify new loci responsible for the migraine phenotype and new mutated alleles in genes responsibles for this genetically heterogeneous disorder.
A gene responsible for migraine has been mapped in two extensive unrelated families at chr14q32. However, the identification of the causative gene rest to be identified. On the other hand, nine missense mutations have been identified in the CACNA1A gene in Spanish patients with hemiplegic migraine (HM), migraine with aura (MA), chilhood periodic syndromes (CPS) and episodic ataxia type 2 (EA2). Three of the mutations are responsible for the FHM phenotype, one of them was identified in an individual who manifested symptoms of childhood benign paroxysmal torticolis that evolved to benign paroxysmal vertigo and finally to FHM. The fourth mutation found in a patient that manifested episodes of hypothermia with accompanying symptoms, could correspond to a CPS variant. Two more changes have been detected in patients with EA2. The seventh change was detected in an affected patient of EA2 and FHM, and the eighth in a patient with EA2 and MA. The ninth mutation has been identified in two patients with MA belonging to a HM family. Functional studies of p.Ala454Thr CACNA1A protein revealed that some variants can have a not causative but modifier role.
The linkage studies performed in this work provide significant evidence of the existence of a new common locus to FHM and MA. Its identification and the results of the mutational analysis carried out in CACNA1A gene increase the recognized genetic heterogeneity in monogenic forms of migraine. Identifying the new migraine gene will contribute to better understand the molecular mechanisms of migraine and the identication of new therapeutic targets.

The following dissertation aims at reflecting on the relationship between history and the intellectual constitution of the emotional memory in the process of creating local and national identities. This study analyses the relation between Paulo Prado s books Paulística (1925) and Retrato do Brasil (1928) and the early 1900 s Society in Brazil, and in the city of São Paulo. Struggling to build a Brazilian identity, Paulo Prado s work sheds light into the links between Nation, modernism and local culture. Moreover, it investigates the importance of recorded history in building up local and national identities
Esta dissertação propõe uma reflexão sobre a história e sua relação com a organização intelectual da memória afetiva do passado no processo de construção de identidades regionais e nacionais. Analisa as relações estabelecidas entre as obras escritas por Paulo Prado Paulística (1925) e Retrato do Brasil (1928) com a sociedade paulista e brasileira nas primeiras décadas do século. Inseridas no processo de luta por acomodação de um princípio identitário harmônico no Brasil, as obras e Paulo Prado colaboram para compreender as inflexões entre nação, modernismo e regionalismo. Outrossim, investiga a centralidade da escrita da História como operação central nestas construções

Full textAbstract:
This thesis explores May Sinclair's female protagonists in her Modernist texts, 1910-1923. 1 look at how Sinclair's work bears witness to her scene of writing and offer an analysis that places Sinclair, most centrally, in a dialogue with contemporary literary, psychoanalytical, and cultural influences.1 draw upon a wealth of unpublished material, medical archives and journals, newspapers, propaganda, novels of fellow female writers, and other artefacts of the day. By appraising these works together, the critical distinction between Modernism and the topical issues of early twentieth century Britain is seen to dissolve, and Sinclair’s writing emerges as an important oeuvre for reading the life of the modem woman. Women’s fiction of the period typically searches for autonomy and agency. However, as 1 show, the desire for radical social change is problematic and often in conflict with the prescribed code of an idealised, fixed female identity. Through an exploration and development of her own concept of sublimation, Sinclair confronts these complex ideological structures in her engagement with the position of women in her fiction. She places her women in a variety of situations—from the tightly knit, domestic home to the unfettered, open terrain of wild landscapes—and analyses the forces that hold women back or set them free. In my study of Sinclair's Modernist texts, 1 argue that Sinclair urges for psychic freedom for women from their cramped, repressive conditions; this is achieved through sublimation.

Verde ya se encuentran consolidados con grandes edificios multifamiliares frente al
mar. Estos se encuentran desarticulados de su paisaje, perdiendo una oportunidad
única, pues son manzanas que requieren un tratamiento distinto al resto de la
ciudad. Sin embargo, el distrito de San Miguel posee el potencial de revertir ello. A
pesar de la oferta inmobiliaria al acecho en esta zona, el tejido urbano cuenta con
predominancia de edificaciones de baja densidad, lo cual permite repensar la
normativa para las nuevas edificaciones. Si bien en este borde se empieza a replicar
el modelo de los distritos consolidados con edificios de gran altura hacia el mar y
niveles bajos hacia el lado trasero a nivel manzana, su nivel de consolidación es
incipiente y es posible reformular la zonificación y crear nuevos lineamientos y
parámetros para mejorar la calidad urbana del lugar y su relación con el paisaje, lo
que lo hace único al resto del crecimiento de la ciudad. Por medio de una manzana
prototipo como instrumento de planificación, se busca plantear nuevos lineamientos
para el borde y evitar lo que promueve la normativa actual y, con ello, sistematizarse
no solo en manzanas completas, sino también en intervenciones más pequeñas
para ir construyendo una nueva ciudad en base a estos. Los nuevos lineamientos
toman 5 puntos: suelo, zócalo, balcón urbano, edificio y cubierta. Estos son el punto
de partida para el nuevo crecimiento urbano en este borde, con una densidad media
y de usos mixtos. Ellos no buscan desarrollar una ciudad que se siga cerrando al
paisaje, sino a una que se abra hacia el mar y mejore su calidad de vida.

Este trabalho tem como objeto de análise a perspectiva de Max Weber em relação ao socialismo. Esse grande clássico do pensamento social sustentou posição muito crítica em relação à exequibilidade do projeto socialista. Mais precisamente, este trabalho delineia e analisa a crítica weberiana ao socialismo em sua dupla abrangência: Weber contrapõe-se tanto à ideia de que a emancipação humana seria atingida em uma sociedade socialista estabelecida, quanto às próprias possibilidades de êxito de uma revolução social que caminhasse no sentido da construção dessa sociedade. Inicialmente revelados os argumentos weberianos que sustentam tal postura, passa-se à sua subsequente discussão crítica à luz do contexto histórico na qual o pensador alemão os forjou. A cadeia de valores que norteavam o autor - base de sua postura político-ideológica - parece influenciar sobremaneira seu ponto de vista sobre o modo de produção socialista, o qual via apenas como extensão radicalizada da dominação burocrática, algo já existente em seu predecessor, o capitalismo moderno. Tomando precisamente essa ideia como central, não vislumbrava saída para a jaula de ferro da burocracia, apresentando-a como algo inexorável na modernidade, seja no capitalismo, seja no seu suposto antípoda, o socialismo. Por fim, muito embora desdobramentos históricos das experiências socialistas tenham dado razão a Weber, apresentam-se alguns elementos críticos à elaboração teórica weberiana, problematizando-se alguns aspectos de sua argumentação, cuja força e influência são inegáveis. Para isso, textos variados de sua obra são percorridos e analisados, embora tome como documento central a célebre Conferência sobre o Socialismo, proferida por Weber em 1918
This work aims to analyse Max Weber's perspective in relation to the socialism. This great classic of the social thought argued against the feasibility of the socialist project from a very critical point of view. More precisely, this work delineates and analyses the double biased Weberian criticism towards socialism: Weber not only opposes the idea that the human emancipation would be reached in an established socialist society, but also criticises the possibilities of success of a social revolution that could lead to that sort of society. Unveiled the arguments that underpin Weber's criticism, the subsequent critical discussion of the author's reasons is addressed in the light of the historical background in which the German thinker has come up with them. The chain of values that guided the author, which provides the basis for his political-ideological position, seems to exert great influence on the view he holds on socialism, which he has only seen as an extensive form of the bureaucratic domination, something that has already existed in its predecessor, the modern capitalism. Taking that very idea as pivotal, that negative view of socialism, Weber has considered there was no way out for the cage of iron of bureaucracy, thus claiming it was something inexorable in modern times, either in capitalism or in socialism, capitalism's supposed antipodal. Finally, even though some historical developments of the socialist experiences give reason to Weber's arguing, the Weberian theorisation and his arguing, whose strength and influence are undeniable, are questioned here based on some critical elements. In order to do so, a wide range of Weber's works are browsed and analysed; the famous Conference on Socialism, though, proffered by Weber in 1918, is here taken as the fundamental document for research
