Abstract:

L'improvisation chantée en ottava rima est une tradition poétique populaire encore vivante dans les régions de l'Italie centrale. Mon étude sur cette tradition orale, et sur sa poétique, recherche les types de relations émergeant entre les participants pendant les interactions conventionnalisées qu'ils co-construisent dans leurs performances dialogiques. J'analyse les aspects procéduraux des compétitions poétiques et les patterns stylistiques exhibés par la praxis de l'exécution. Je réexamine cette pratique culturelle me focalisant sur le contexte ethnographique limité à la zone de la Maremme

Abstract:

2012 - 2013<br>A good title should speak for itself. And a subtitle, even better, center the subject is meant to treat, especially in a work as a doctoral thesis. Why, in fact, this is not a text that seeks a commercial purpose, but the systematic development of a research, covering an area of study that has tried to analyze the course of at least three years. The temptation, however, to "mine" the beautiful construct that seals the most fascinating among the truths of geometry and apply it to an idea, certainly not new, but it has stayed with me constantly during those years, was too strong

Abstract:

La tesi di dottorato consiste in un’analisi formale (metrica, sintattica, lessicale) de "La Pulcella d’Orléans" di Vincenzo Monti - traduzione-riscrittura dell’omonimo poema volterriano "La Pucelle d’Orléans" - composta tra il 1798 e il 1799. L’opera è stata considerata come una versione autonoma e originale rispetto al testo francese, data la particolare scelta montiana di inserire il modello di partenza nella peculiare tradizione letteraria italiana, riducendo le componenti più strettamente filosofiche e il forte intento ideologico originario. Nel passaggio traduttorio, infatti, l’autore ha

Abstract:

This thesis examines the educational inequalities facing Black high school students, particularly working-class youths in Ottawa's educational system. In consultation with several community organizations, educators, parents and students, several concerns were identified as barriers that impacted the educational achievement of Black youths in Ottawa's schools. They identified issues such as the continued negative stereotyping of Black students, particularly Black males as being aggressive, violent, low achievers, and lacking respect for authority, which often results in their suspensions and/or

Abstract:

The grounds of Canadian homes typically consist of trimmed lawns sparsely planted with ornamental trees and shrubs. Despite their low initial cost and immediate impact, conventional landscapes require significant annual capital and physical resources, such as fuel, water, herbicides and fertilizer. However, low-maintenance alternatives exhibit lower consumption rates and annual cost savings. This paper investigates the saving potential of four low-maintenance alternatives when compared to a conventional option through an evaluation of life cycle cost and annual maintenance resource consumption

Abstract:

Beaver ponds are important parts of peatland landscapes and have high fluxes of CO2 and CH4. This study was undertaken in Mer Bleue Bog, Ontario, to determine the response of a beaver pond to drainage (lowering by 25 cm) as a sink or source of carbon. Plant distribution was changed in response to a new water table gradient. Each vegetation community and the remaining beaver pond were sampled for fluxes of CO2 and CH4 from mid-April to end-November, 1999, one year after the water table was lowered.<br>A flow-through chamber system was used to measure CO2 flux from vegetated sites.

In vascular plants, carbon and water fluxes were well coupled (&sim;2.27 mumol CO 2 mmol-1 H2O) except in the post-deciduous period where temperature constrained water flux more than carbon flux. The seasonal cycle of Sphagnum water content was driven by water table depth; rain depth, rain frequency an

Abstract:

Wetlands exchange significant amounts of carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4)---two major greenhouse gases (GHG), and thus have significant impacts on the Earth's climate. In this study, fluxes of CO2 and CH4 were measured in a cattail-dominated marsh in Eastern Ontario, Canada. Eddy covariance measurements of net ecosystem CO2 exchange (NEE) revealed that the marsh was an annual sink of 264 g C m-2, and that growing season net CO2 fluxes were strongly correlated with vegetation biomass and leaf area index. Fluxes of CH4 were measured from water, soil and plants using closed chambers and res

Abstract:

A hydrological and biogeochemical study was undertaken at the Mer Bleue bog, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada from May 22, 1998 to May 21, 1999. Basin runoff was generated by groundwater discharge at the peatland margin, and groundwater discharge was controlled by hydraulic gradients and horizontal hydraulic conductivities (Kh). Flux of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) measured at the basin outflow was 8.3 g C m-2 yr-1 and compared to within 23% of DOC flux estimated using a Dupuit approximation of seepage during the ice-free season. Annual DOC flux was 11% of the annual carbon sink.<br>Flownet analysis

Dahl and La Boetie's theories of power as capacity and consent respectively focus on the OPU's ability to force others to take particular actions, and choice in compliance in scenarios imposed by others. Alternately, Foucault's theory of power allows an examination of the union members' positions within power relati

The concept of decision points is used to explore the origins of the 1958 Broadcasting Act and the 1968 Broadcasting Act.

This thesis examines the impact of urban water infrastructure on the Ottawa River through an exploration of the City of Ottawa's historical development from the early modern period to the present. The primary aim is to explain how the Ottawa River came to be removed or ignored from the City of Ottawa's urban development strategy. The thesis focuses on the periods of 1910-1920 (early modernity) and 1999-2012 (present). The theories applied are risk, risk management, normal accident theory and the politics of infrastructure. The data and information for this thesis were primarily retrieved from

Abstract:

The current opioid crisis has, among other things, resulted in soaring rates of fatal overdose across Canada, prompting officials to turn to harm reduction in hopes of combatting the epidemic. The Coroners Service of British Columbia issued a statement in March 2017 reporting an 80% increase in the number of deaths resulting from illicit drug use in 2016 from 2015 (Coroners Service of British Columbia, 2017). Despite the abundance of evidence demonstrating the effectiveness of supervised injection services (SIS) in Canada and worldwide, the implementation of this intervention has remained high

Abstract:

Many existing bridges, especially those built before 1970, were designed with minimum or no seismic considerations. Past experience has shown that such bridges are very vulnerable when subjected to moderate and strong earthquake motions. This was illustrated during the 1989 Loma Prieta, the 1994 Northridge, and the 1995 Kobe earthquakes, when many existing bridge collapsed or were severely damaged. Such a poor performance of the bridges was attributed primarily to the fact that the seismic effects were underestimated in the pre-1970's design practice. In Ottawa region, a great expansion of hig
