Abstract:
The subject of this thesis is Satan in Milton's Paradise Lost. I begin by observing how major critics and poets from Dryden on have understood this wonderful yet controversial character in Milton's greatest poem. After identifying the Satanist and anti-Satanist schools in this tradition and some of the general features of each school, I proceed to argue my central claim: by virtue of his consciousness, will, reason, and passion, Satan is a character whose nature is not in fact supernatural but fundamentally and essentially the same as that of an exceptional human being. I justify this claim by treating each of these attributes in separate chapters (the first chapter documents both consciousness and will). In making this argument, I take issue with early anti-Satanists, such as Dryden, Addison, Blair, and Johnson, and later anti-Satanists, such as Williams, Lewis, Musgrove, and Fish who fail to recognise Satan's exceptional human qualities, especially his reason. Though I align myself with some of the Satanists I discuss in the opening chapter, I also distinguish myself from them by first providing a distinct description of the specific nature of Satan's consciousness, will, reason, and passion. In so doing, I advance the Satanist critics' understanding of Satan by demonstrating that when all these particular features of Satan's character are taken together he can be seen as an exceptional human being. Thus, I explicitly argue for a claim that Satanists either gloss over or simply assume: Satan is essentially human. And it is because he is essentially human that Johnson is mistaken in claiming that the poem lacks human interest: we are interested in Satan because Satan is like us.

Abstract:
This thesis handles a number of passages in the poems of Dryden and Pope which show that both poets had been deeply impressed by Paradise Lost. These passages are so various and numerous (this is one of the principal claims to novelty of this thesis) that it is no longer possible to maintain that Milton was in different ways an isolated figure. Secondly, the effect on both poets of these passages they admired in Paradise Lost is such as to justify the claim that in important respects Milton made Dryden and Pope. The principal point of this thesis is to provide evidence suggesting that the implied verdict on Paradise Lost which emerges from Dryden's and Pope's manifold uses of the poem in producing their own poetry, is radically unlike any of the verdicts pronounced on Paradise Lost by the most gifted readers of poetry during the years from Wordsworth's death down to the present. In Dryden and Pope there was a common underlying estimate of the permanent worth of Paradise Lost. This finding entails an examination of the nature and development of the divergent tradition, which is traced back to a point in the middle years of the nineteenth century, and has been maintained without substantial addition or modification until recent times. However, the bulk of the thesis is not polemical. God, Man and Nature are the topics which principally stirred the two poets in their reading of Paradise Lost. Nevertheless, neither Dryden nor Pope separated their feelings for Milton's Nature from their feelings for Milton's Man and Milton's God. The nature found by Dryden and Pope was a nature crowned by human nature, but was invisible until they were confronted by the intermingling and interpenetration of the human and the divine. Common to Dryden and Pope was the conviction that Paradise Lost was a unique creation and unique above all because these three elements were so interrelated, and one could never be isolated without involving all the others. The whole question of what constitutes evidence of Dryden's and Pope's contact with Paradise Lost is examined in a separate appendix. Further appendices include lists of all the instances known to me.

Abstract:
This study arranges symptoms of polarity into a causal sequence# beginning with the origin of contrarieties and ending with the ultimate effect. The origin is considered as the fall of man, denoting both a mythic concept and a specific act of betrayal. This study argues that a sense of separateness precedes the fall or act of separation; the act of separation produces various kinds of fragmentation; and the fragments are reunited through paradox. Therefore, a causal relationship exists between the "fall" motif and the concept of paradox.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis is a study of the influence exerted by John Milton's Paradise Lost on James Joyce's A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man. Its main character, Stephen Dedalus, narrates some remarkable passages of his life, through his childhood and young age, and his passage from a state of innocence to his first sinful experiences, being the first taken by the hands of a woman. This work focuses on Stephen's sins and repentance, his unwillingness to serve, his non serviam, and the whole course of his sins, in which I claim to have been influenced by Milton's characters in Paradise Lost, Adam, Eve, and Satan. The concepts and theories used to define influence used in this work are Harold Bloom's revisionary ratios, Patrick Colm Hogan's psychology and economy of influence, and Luiz Fernando Ferreira Sá's notion of influence as influx and inflow. A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man is Joyce's tentative to propose an alternative to the ones who choose not to serve, as Milton failed to do, and be a true artificer of wor(l)ds.

Abstract:
AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF JAIME MOSS for the Master of Fine Arts degree in MASS COMMUNICATIONS AND MEDIA ARTS, presented on FEBRUARY 13TH, 2014 at Southern Illinois University Carbondale. TITLE: ARCHIVING LOSS: THE PAPER MAN BEHIND THE MASK MAJOR PROFESSOR: Sarah Lewison, H.D. Motyl, Fern Logan, Dru Vratil This paper is companion to the narrative short, The Man Who Burned Paper. Both this paper and the film deal with the subject of identity loss as an archive, building on the work of sociologists Andrew J. Weigert and Ross Hastings. Drawing on several sources, including the work of literary scholars, affect theorists, and an excerpt from This American Life, this paper explores what it is to create and lose an identity both experimentally and existentially. It develops beyond this exploration by reconstructing it through a cinematic format that uses memories, flashbacks, and body doubles to narrate one man's identity construction and his journey to come to terms with its loss. It concludes that while identity loss is a unique experience, reflecting upon the loss and dysfunction it can bring can create space to understand the sorrow and pain that accompanies it. It is with hope that the findings discovered from this deeply personal and challenging process will act as a guide towards future actions that allow for new opportunities that improve the quality of life and a broader mindset.

Midan, Marc. "Milton & Melville : le démon de l'allusion." Paris 7, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014PA070086.

Full text
Abstract:
Milton & Melville : Le Démon de l'allusion étudie la signification de l'allusion à Milton dans Taïpi, Moby¬Dick, L'Escroc à la confiance et Billy-Budd, Marin. Un état détaillé de la recherche sur les rapports entre les deux auteurs montre la prédominance d'une conception de l'allusion comme moyen d'identifier le sens d'un texte incertain à celui d'un autre, supposé stable ; or, il s'agit, en réalité, d'une relation dynamique et réciproque. Ludique, satirique, impie, ou érotique, l'allusion melvillienne est multiforme et variable ¬ondoiement qui la dérobe à une approche trop générale, mais en lequel réside justement un sens plus global, au-delà de simples effets locaux. Loin d'être un ornement ou un supplément, elle fait partie de la trame même du texte ; oblique, déroutante, elle n'en sert pas moins la grande ambition melvillienne d'« énoncer la Vérité ». C'est, en effet, allusivement — dans une relation, en particulier, au Paradis perdu — que Melville décrit à la fois les travers de la société contemporaine, l'aliénation du moi et la terreur des « sphères invisibles ». Le poème melvillien peut se concevoir comme un lieu où la vérité est, dans le même mouvement, dégagée et exhibée, par une chimie à la fois expérimentale et picturale. Le processus mobilise ¬selon un modèle fédéral où s'affirme une originalité américaine — une allusion complexe, dont le sens ne réside pas seulement dans les éléments importés par les textes simultanément convoqués, mais aussi dans leur interaction conflictuelle. Cet agôn allusif récurrent — qui définit notamment l'écrire-blanc de Moby-Dick — participe d'une violence relationnelle dont le Satan de Milton est le plus puissant symbole
Milton & Melville: The Demon of Allusion studies the significance of allusions to Milton in Typee, Moby¬Dick, The Confidence-Man and Billy-Budd, Sailor. Examining the state of research shows that allusion tends to be seen as a way to identify the meaning of an ambiguous Melvillean text with a supposedly stable Miltonic one – when in fact the allusive relationship is dynamic and reciprocal. All at once playful, satirical, impious, and erotic, Melvillean allusion is protean and thus eludes generalization. However, its very elusiveness hints at a more global significance, going beyond merely local import. Far from being just a flourish or a supplement, it is the very stuff that the text is made of. However oblique and disconcerting, it plays a crucial part in Melville's ambition to master the "great Art of Telling the Truth". Indeed, it is through allusion—in particular to Paradise Lost—that he satirizes contemporary society, explores the alienation of the self and expresses the terror of the "invisible spheres". Melville's text can be conceived of as the locus where truth is both achieved and exhibited to the reader, through a chemistry that is experimental as well as pictorial in nature. Based on a uniquely American federal model, such a process involves a complex allusive mix, the meaning of which lies not only in what the different texts bring to their host, "'but also in the destructive interaction between them. This recurrent allusive agon – the "colorless all-color" of writing – speaks to the violence of Melvillean relationships, the most powerful symbol of which is Milton's Satan

Abstract:
Syftet i den här studien har varit att undersöka hur ensamkommande unga i Sverige beskriver sin upplevelse av familjeåterförening och vilken innebörd eller mening familjeåterföreningen har för dem. Vidare har vi haft för avsikt att ta reda på hur ensamkommande unga upplever den förändring som sker när samhällsstödet dras in vid familjens ankomst till Sverige. Studien är en kvalitativ intervjustudie där vi intervjuat tre personer som kommit till Sverige som ensamkommande barn och som senare återförenats med sina familjer i Sverige. Studiens teoretiska ramverk utgörs av Schütz fenomenologiska sociologi samt Berger och Luckmanns teori om den sociala verkligheten. För att ytterligare fördjupa förståelsen har vi kompletterat det teoretiska ramverket med Boss teori om tvetydig förlust samt med Greifs teori om tvetydig återförening. Analysmetoden var interpretativ fenomenologisk analys (IPA). Studiens huvudsakliga resultat är att det verkar finnas en kluvenhet i ensamkommande ungas upplevelser av familjeåterföreningen. Samtidigt som familjeåterföreningen har haft stor betydelse för respondenterna, har tiden efter återföreningen präglats av ett påfrestande ansvar över familjen. Avslutningsvis diskuteras eventuella brister i socialtjänstens stöd för familjer vid familjeåterförening i Sverige.
The purpose of this study was to explore how unaccompanied minors describe their experiences of family reunification, and what importance or implications it has for them. Furthermore, our aim was to find out how they experience the withdrawal of public social support after the arrival of their families. We interviewed three persons who were unaccompanied minors by the arrival to Sweden, and later reunified with their families in Sweden. The theoretical framework of this qualitative interview study is formed by Schütz’ phenomenological sociology and Berger and Luckmann’s theory of the social construction of reality. We complemented the theoretical framework with Boss’ theory of ambiguous loss and Greif’s theory of ambiguous reunification. The method for analysis used is Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA). The main results shown in this study is that there seems to be an ambiguity in the family reunification experience. On one hand, the family reunification was of big importance to the participants. On the other hand, the time following the reunification was characterized by a great responsibility for the family. Finally, we discuss possible shortcomings in the way the public social support for families after family reunification is provided.

Abstract:
ohn Milton (1608-1674) lived in an age marked by religious discussion. The English Civil War (1640) had one of its supporters involving religion, literary texts were composed with biblical allegories, and Milton, following the habits of his own time, created literary works with sacred influence. For this reason and for a long time, Paradise Lost has been seen under the biblical myth that served as material basis for the composition of the epic. Before the Romantics, few critics had dared to leave the comfort zone and had rehearsed an analysis that took care of other aspects besides the contributions of classical authors and literary works or the biblical myth itself. The Romantics opened up a new critical line which was concerned with the characters of Paradise Lost, in special Satan. They heard the voices that bring to life the epic narrative and they had found a model for their own age. The heroic noble Satan of the Romantics, however, does not respond to the complexity of the character. Far from being a mere embodiment of evil, an element that can be blamed for all misfortune, the Miltonic Satan has in himself traces from the anterior good. He is victimized by the understanding of his present and slaughtered with the memories of his past; the character is placed between the image of a great leader externalized to the other angels, and the doubts that overcome his thoughts. This thesis aims to counteract these two parts of the character.
John Milton (1608-1674) viveu em um período marcado pela discussão religiosa. A guerra civil inglesa (1640) tivera um de seus suportes envolvendo a religião, textos literários foram compostos com alegorias bíblicas, e Milton, seguindo os hábitos de seu tempo, criou obras com influência sacra. O Paradise Lost, por causa disso, foi, durante muito tempo, observado à luz do mito bíblico que serviu de matéria base para a composição do épico. Antes dos românticos, poucos críticos ousaram sair da zona de conforto e ensaiaram uma análise que cuidava de outros aspectos além da contribuição de autores e obras clássicas ou do mito bíblico. Com os românticos, abriu-se definitivamente uma linha crítica atenta às personagens do Paradise Lost, em especial de Satã. Eles ouviram as vozes que dão vida à narrativa épica e descobriram um modelo para o seu próprio tempo. O Satã heróico e nobre dos românticos, no entanto, não responde à complexidade da personagem. Longe de ser uma mera materialização do mal, um elemento que possa ser culpado por todo o infortúnio, o Satã de Milton abriga em si vestígios do bem anterior. Vitimado pela compreensão de seu presente e abatido com as memórias do passado, a personagem coloca-se entre a imagem de grande líder exteriorizada aos outros anjos e as dúvidas que dominam os seus pensamentos. Esta dissertação tem por objetivo contrapor essas duas partes da personagem.

Abstract:
By using the scientific essay as a method, I explore what facts affect the roles of me, the professional, and the patient during our first interaction. I also explore in which way the interaction could be affected by its location. My own professional experience as a physiotherapist is portrayed by two examples of patient-therapist interaction where the dialogue is “slow” and a sense of consensus, which is my goal, does not occur. Philosophers, authors and scientists help me to explore and reflect about my practical knowledge and how it can be developed. The essay shows different aspects on what losing health is about and how it influences the inequality in the interaction between the patient and the healthcare provider. Dialogue is a part of the treatment and when establishing a plan of rehabilitation it is important to get the relatives involved. By using different aspects of interpersonal meetings between me and the patient in this essay I want to develop the art of acting wisely in the moment, phronesis, which is the term philosopher Aristoteles created.

Memoria (licenciado en ciencias jurídicas y sociales)
El derecho colectivo del trabajo se cimenta en tres pilares: la sindicalización, la negociación colectiva y la huelga. Pese a su consagración constitucional y legal, en nuestro país las restricciones al ejercicio de estos derechos son variadas. Por otro lado, la ley 20.123, publicada en el Diario Oficial el 16 de octubre de 2006, regula en el Código del Trabajo la situación del trabajo en régimen de subcontratación y el suministro de trabajadores. El problema que aborda esta investigación es la situación de los trabajadores subcontratados y suministrados en relación con los derechos colectivos de sindicalización, negociación colectiva y huelga. La ausencia de regulación específica y, por ende, la aplicación de la legislación general, tiene como consecuencia serias dificultades en el efectivo ejercicio de los derechos colectivos de estos trabajadores. Este trabajo aborda la legislación sobre la materia, las consecuencias para el ejercicio de estos derechos y, por último, recoge algunos de los diagnósticos y propuestas existentes en nuestro país para avanzar en la solución de esta problemática.

Abstract:
La ictiofauna en la selva del Perú es una de las más diversas del mundo. La gran variedad de hábitats que ofrece nuestra Amazonía, favorece esta diversidad. Por ello, es muy importante realizar más estudios sobre los ecosistemas acuáticos, que contribuyan a ampliar los conocimientos ya existentes. Partiendo de esta premisa se planteó el objetivo de encontrar diferencias a nivel de los parámetros físico-químicos del agua, entre dos lagunas de origen meándrico, así como también estudiar aspectos de la ecología de peces (diversidad, similaridad, especies indicadoras y variación estacional) y determinar las variaciones de distribución espacial de las especies de mayor tamaño en dos lagunas fluviales: Cocha Cashu y Cocha Totora, ubicadas dentro del área de la Estación Biológica Cocha Cashu, Parque Nacional Manu, Provincia de Manu, Departamento de Madre de Dios. Las colectas fueron realizadas en época de vaciante y creciente, empleando para ello hasta cuatro métodos de pesca: arrastre (chinchorro), trampera, atarraya y pesca eléctrica. Con la finalidad de determinar diferencias significativas, a nivel de calidad de agua, entre Cashu y Totora, se registraron datos de parámetros fisicoquímicos en cada laguna, considerando: conductividad, pH, temperatura, oxígeno y transparencia. Para elaborar las listas de especies de Cashu y Totora, se tomaron en cuenta las capturas obtenidas con los cuatro métodos de pesca en ambas épocas. Los análisis de diversidad, similaridad, “clusters” y variación estacional se realizaron a partir de las colectas con red de arrastre; se establecieron tres estaciones en cada laguna (Cashu y Totora) las cuales fueron muestreadas en época de vaciante y creciente. Para el análisis de la distribución espacial se realizó un muestreo con atarraya dividiendo cada laguna en tres zonas: pastizal, centro y troncos. Se registraron 36 especies de peces para Cashu y 36 para Totora. Se encontraron diferencias significativas entre Cashu y Totora en cuanto a la calidad del agua.
--- The fishfauna in the forest of Peru is one of the most diverse of the world. The great variety of habitats that offers our Amazon, favors this diversity. For that reason, it is very important to make more studies on the aquatic ecosystems, which contribute to extend the existing knowledge. The objective considered was to find differences in the water quality, to study some ecological aspects in the communities of fishes (diversity, similarity, indicators species and seasonal variation) and to determine the spatial distribution of major size species in two “oxbows lakes”: Cocha Cashu and Cocha Totora, located within the Manu National Park, Manu, Madre de Dios. The samples were collected in both dry and rainy seasons, using four methods of fishing: seines,, gill net, cast net and electro fishing. With the purpose of determining significant differences, at water quality, between Cashu and Totora, the data of physic-chemistry parameters in each oxbow lake were registered, considering: conductivity, pH, temperature, oxygen and transparency. The captures obtained with the four methods of fishing at both season were used in order to elaborate the lists of species of Cashu and Totora. The analyses of diversity, similarity, cluster and seasonal variation were made from samples with seines, settled down three stations in each oxbow lake, in both dry and rainy seasons. For the analysis of the spatial distribution a sampling with cast net was made dividing each “oxbow lake” in three zones: “pastizal”, “centro” and “troncos”. 36 species for Cashu and 36 for Totora were recorded. Significant differences between Cashu and Totora at the water quality were registered.

Abstract:
La presencia de población indígena en el Parque Nacional del Manu representa una problemática de la gestión de Áreas Naturales Protegidas que busca encontrar el balance entre conservar la biodiversidad y brindar bienestar a la población. Los matsigenka del Manu, dentro de este contexto, representan la principal población del Parque, y hoy en día plantean desafíos prioritarios para la gestión que consiste en implementar la conservación de acuerdo a las necesidades actuales de las comunidades. A través de la etnografía, esta investigación busca indagar sobre un espacio aún poco abordado dentro del ámbito social del Parque Nacional del Manu; esto es, la voz de la población matsigenka en la conservación a partir de sus prácticas y discursos en torno a esta forma de gobierno de la naturaleza. Asimismo, considerando que actualmente la conservación se lleva a cabo a través de un nexo entre múltiples actores, la investigación aborda igualmente la perspectiva de los funcionarios del Parque en torno a los matsigenka en este contexto. Finalmente, la tesis describe los espacios de encuentro entre estos actores, una práctica de la conservación participativa donde ambas perspectivas entran en diálogo para coordinar los objetivos que guiarán la gestión. Lo que se concluye es que la conservación es comprendida de manera distinta por ambos grupos, generando una distancia entre quienes, finalmente, la hacen posible. Para los matsigenka la conservación es entendida como la presencia del Parque a través de vínculos específicos con las distintas formas de control y vigilancia que existen, mientras que los funcionarios ven a los matsigenka como actores que aún no se encuentran del todo integrados a los ámbitos de la sociedad nacional influenciados por la conservación. Estos desencuentros se manifiestan no solo en el discurso, sino también en los espacios de encuentro entre ambos para coordinar la mejor manera de llevar a cabo la conservación del Parque Nacional del Manu.

Abstract:
Tesis para optar al grado de Doctor en Filosofía.
La presente tesis trata sobre el problema filosófico-teológico del mal. Intenta presentar en forma clara y rigurosa las diferentes maneras cómo se ha planteado el problema realizando una síntesis. Así en la primera parte se muestra en líneas generales las tres grandes preguntas sobre el mal; a saber: la naturaleza del mal (¿qué es el mal?), el origen del mal (¿de dónde proviene?), y las actitudes y propuestas para enfrentarlo y/o superarlo (¿cómo vencerlo?). Después, exponemos las teorías filosóficas más generales sobre el mal que dan cuenta de la relación del mal en el mundo. En la segunda parte complementando lo anterior, se revisan los hitos en la historia del pensamiento sobre el mal: el pensamiento griego, la tradición judía y cristiana, el pensamiento medieval, los siglos XVII y XVIII, y la época contemporánea. En la tercera y cuarta parte se presenta la filosofía de Paul Ricoeur y se analizan sus estudios sobre el problema del mal, respectivamente. Dicho pensador realiza una hermenéutica de los símbolos del mal, representado en la imagen de la mancha, del cautiverio (pecado) y de la carga (culpabilidad). Además se examinan cuatro mitos sobre el origen y el fin del mal: mito cosmogónico, trágico, adámico y órfico; para luego, analizar la evolución de la conciencia moral a partir de la concepción trágica hasta la concepción ética del mal, base de la teodicea. Por último, entregamos las conclusiones generales de nuestra tesis, y en consecuencia, el aporte de Paul Ricoeur al problema del mal.

Abstract:
Esta tesis defiende un derecho universal de salida al mar. La falta de acceso marítimo priva a los Estados de la autonomía necesaria para perseguir sus fines y menoscaba sus posibilidades de desarrollo. Sostengo que a pesar de que Rawls es un improbable aliado de este proyecto, este derecho puede ser defendido desde una perspectiva rawlsiana. Rechazo la objeción de que los Estados acosteros puedan considerarse colectivamente responsables por su situación y que sea necesario hacer responsables a los otros Estados para exigir una solución. Apelo a teorías cercanas a la tradición geoísta que sostienen que el planeta pertenece a toda la humanidad y que la distribución desigual de los recursos debe ser compensada, y respondo a una posible objeción. Finalmente, rechazo la idea de que mi propuesta pueda ser rebatida sobre la base de la idea de soberanía y derechos territoriales.
This thesis defends a universal right to access the sea. The lack of access deprives states of the autonomy they need to pursue their goals and undermines their development potential. I hold that though John Rawls is an unlikely allied to this project, this right can be defended from a Rawlsian perspective. I reject the objection that landlocked states can be considered collectively responsible for their situation and I also deny it is necessary to hold other states collectively responsible in order to demand a solution. I appeal to theories close to the geoist tradition that claim the planet belongs to all humanity and that a very unequal distribution of resources should be redressed. I also reply to a possible geoist objection to my proposal. Finally, I object to the idea that a conclusive argument against my proposal can be grounded on the ideas of sovereignty and territorial rights.

Abstract:
Recent advances in wireless communications and electronics has enabled the development of low-cost sensor networks. Wireless sensor networks can be used for various application areas (e.g., military, home, environment). Each application poses its own particular technical issues. One key problem that arises in many applications is how to organize the computation and communication in a sensor network to enable accurate estimation of the state of a dynamic system. As a starting point in this thesis, we demonstrate that packet loss and delays have a strong influence on the performance of optimal estimators. Thus, when we want to use a sensor network platform to collect and forward measurements to a data collector for estimation, it is critical to understand the loss performance of current hardware platforms and, possibly, to design MAC schemes that eliminate losses and minimize data collection latency. We investigate on the problem of packet loss, with practical experiments on a real wireless sensor network built up with Telos platform. The experiments in this thesis are made with single hop and multi-hop protocols in a star and linear network topology. To solve the problem of data delay and to avoid the collisions that lead to packet losses, we propose an overlay TDMA over CSMA. The underlying idea is to have a distributed protocol which is able to schedule the transmission of the nodes in order to have a data flow that converges from the furthest nodes toward the fusion center. To show the benefits of our protocol we simulate the behavior of a network in which nodes are randomly scheduled by the fusion center. Our protocol permits to obtain, in a distributed way, the optimal solution of such a network giving a strong improvement over a casual schedule.

Abstract:
Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka hur flickor/kvinnor och pojkar/män framställs utifrån Nikolajevas motsatsschema i fem barnböcker av Astrid Lindgren, alltså Pippi Långstrump (1945), Barnen på Bråkmakargatan (1958), Madicken (1960), Bröderna Lejonhjärta (1973) och Ronja rövardotter (1981). Vårt syfte var även att undersöka hur framställningen av flickor/kvinnor respektive pojkar/män utifrån Nikolajevas motsatsschema skiljer sig i de olika böckerna, samt att undersöka hur könsmönstren förändrats över tid i de analyserade böckerna, utifrån Nikolajevas motsatsschema. Våra forskningsfrågor var “Hur skildras flickor/kvinnor respektive pojkar/män i de undersökta böckerna?”, “Hur skiljer sig framställningen av flickor/kvinnor respektive pojkar/män i de undersökta böckerna?” och “Hur har könsmönster förändrats över tid i de undersökta böckerna?”. Vår teoretiska utgångspunkt grundade sig i genusperspektivet utifrån Hirdman. Vår metod var en kvalitativ textanalys med kvantitativa inslag (att räkna egenskaper utifrån Nikolajevas motsatsschema). Våra huvudresultat var att i Pippi Långstrump (1945) fanns två normbrytande huvudkaraktärer och en stereotyp huvudkaraktär, i Barnen på Bråkmakargatan (1958) fanns två normbrytande huvudkaraktärer och tre stereotypa huvudkaraktärer. I Madicken (1960) framkom det att tre huvudkaraktärer var stereotypa medan en huvudkaraktär var könsneutral. I Bröderna Lejonhjärta (1973) fanns två normbrytande huvudkaraktärer och tre stereotypa huvudkaraktärer. Slutligen återfanns fyra stereotypa huvudkaraktärer i Ronja Rövardotter (1981) och inga normbrytande huvudkaraktärer.

Abstract:
Con il termine Smart Grid si intende una rete urbana capillare che trasporta energia, informazione e controllo, composta da dispositivi e sistemi altamente distribuiti e cooperanti. Essa deve essere in grado di orchestrare in modo intelligente le azioni di tutti gli utenti e dispositivi connessi al fine di distribuire energia in modo sicuro, efficiente e sostenibile. Questo connubio fra ICT ed Energia viene comunemente identificato anche con il termine Smart Metering, o Internet of Energy. La crescente domanda di energia e l’assoluta necessità di ridurre gli impatti ambientali (pacchetto clima energia 20-20-20 [9]), ha creato una convergenza di interessi scientifici, industriali e politici sul tema di come le tecnologie ICT possano abilitare un processo di trasformazione strutturale di ogni fase del ciclo energetico: dalla generazione fino all’accumulo, al trasporto, alla distribuzione, alla vendita e, non ultimo, il consumo intelligente di energia. Tutti i dispositivi connessi, diventeranno parte attiva di un ciclo di controllo esteso alle grandi centrali di generazione così come ai comportamenti dei singoli utenti, agli elettrodomestici di casa, alle auto elettriche e ai sistemi di micro-generazione diffusa. La Smart Grid dovrà quindi appoggiarsi su una rete capillare di comunicazione che fornisca non solo la connettività fra i dispositivi, ma anche l’abilitazione di nuovi servizi energetici a valore aggiunto. In questo scenario, la strategia di comunicazione sviluppata per lo Smart Metering dell’energia elettrica, può essere estesa anche a tutte le applicazioni di telerilevamento e gestione, come nuovi contatori dell’acqua e del gas intelligenti, gestione dei rifiuti, monitoraggio dell’inquinamento dell’aria, monitoraggio del rumore acustico stradale, controllo continuo del sistema di illuminazione pubblico, sistemi di gestione dei parcheggi cittadini, monitoraggio del servizio di noleggio delle biciclette, ecc. Tutto ciò si prevede possa contribuire alla progettazione di un unico sistema connesso, dove differenti dispositivi eterogenei saranno collegati per mettere a disposizione un’adeguata struttura a basso costo e bassa potenza, chiamata Metropolitan Mesh Machine Network (M3N) o ancora meglio Smart City. Le Smart Cities dovranno a loro volta diventare reti attive, in grado di reagire agli eventi esterni e perseguire obiettivi di efficienza in modo autonomo e in tempo reale. Anche per esse è richiesta l’introduzione di smart meter, connessi ad una rete di comunicazione broadband e in grado di gestire un flusso di monitoraggio e controllo bi-direzionale esteso a tutti gli apparati connessi alla rete elettrica (ma anche del gas, acqua, ecc). La M3N, è un’estensione delle wireless mesh network (WMN). Esse rappresentano una tecnologia fortemente attesa che giocherà un ruolo molto importante nelle futura generazione di reti wireless. Una WMN è una rete di telecomunicazione basata su nodi radio in cui ci sono minimo due percorsi che mettono in comunicazione due nodi. E’ un tipo di rete robusta e che offre ridondanza. Quando un nodo non è più attivo, tutti i rimanenti possono ancora comunicare tra di loro, direttamente o passando da uno o più nodi intermedi. Le WMN rappresentano una tipologia di rete fondamentale nel continuo sviluppo delle reti radio che denota la divergenza dalle tradizionali reti wireless basate su un sistema centralizzato come le reti cellulari e le WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network). Analogamente a quanto successo per le reti di telecomunicazione fisse, in cui si è passati, dalla fine degli anni ’60 ai primi anni ’70, ad introdurre schemi di rete distribuite che si sono evolute e man mano preso campo come Internet, le M3N promettono di essere il futuro delle reti wireless “smart”. Il primo vantaggio che una WMN presenta è inerente alla tolleranza alla caduta di nodi della rete stessa. Diversamente da quanto accade per una rete cellulare, in cui la caduta di una Base Station significa la perdita di servizio per una vasta area geografica, le WMN sono provviste di un’alta tolleranza alle cadute, anche quando i nodi a cadere sono più di uno. L'obbiettivo di questa tesi è quello di valutare le prestazioni, in termini di connettività e throughput, di una M3N al variare di alcuni parametri, quali l’architettura di rete, le tecnologie utilizzabili (quindi al variare della potenza, frequenza, Building Penetration Loss…ecc) e per diverse condizioni di connettività (cioè per diversi casi di propagazione e densità abitativa). Attraverso l’uso di Matlab, è stato quindi progettato e sviluppato un simulatore, che riproduce le caratteristiche di una generica M3N e funge da strumento di valutazione delle performance della stessa. Il lavoro è stato svolto presso i laboratori del DEIS di Villa Grifone in collaborazione con la FUB (Fondazione Ugo Bordoni).

Abstract:
Por trastornos del comportamiento alimentario (TCA) se entienden ciertas conductas alimentarias que, siendo admiradas en otros periodos históricos y aún en ciertas culturas, han pasado a ser percibidas como desviadas y etiquetadas en un momento particular de la historia de Occidente como enfermedades mentales. Siendo conceptualizados por la psiquiatría como síndromes delimitados por la cultura por su adscripción a una determinada cultura –la occidental-, dentro de ella se los relaciona con variables específicas como son el género, la edad, la clase social, y la etnia. De esta manera la anorexia nerviosa, como los demás TCA, ha estado y sigue estando asociada a la mujer caucásica occidental, en edad joven, de clase media o alta, y a su obsesión por conseguir un cuerpo delgado. Esta tesis persigue deconstruir estas representaciones sociales que se han ido formando respecto a la enfermedad y a sus enfermas desde el ámbito biomédico que, en su tarea de formular diagnósticos, protocolos y tratamientos adecuados, aplica una perspectiva particular y reducida sobre el fenómeno de los (mal)estares alimentarios. Para ello se hace una revisión histórica y transcultural de tales prácticas y un análisis crítico de las hipótesis que desde la epidemiología psiquiátrica transcultural intentan explicar los casos en sociedades geográfica y culturalmente alejadas de Occidente y entre personas migrantes y/o de diverso origen étnico en las sociedades occidentales. Mediante el método etnográfico se analizan los relatos de vida de inmigrantes en España que experimentan o han experimentado (mal)estares alimentarios así como sus itinerarios asistenciales.

Abstract:
This study aims at developing a model to estimate flood damage cost caused in Gonaives, Haiti by Hurricane Jeanne in 2004. In order to reach this goal, the influence of income, inundation duration and inundation depth, slope, population density and distance to major roads on the loss costs was investigated. Surveyed data were analyzed using Excel and ArcGIS 10 software. The ordinary least square and the geographically weighted regression analyses were used to predict flood damage costs. Then, the estimates were delineated using voronoi geostatistical map tool. As a result, the factors account for the costs as high as 83%. The flood damage cost in a household varies between 24,315 through 37,693 Haitian Gourdes (approximately 607.875 through 942.325 U.S. Dollars). Severe damages were spotted in the urban area and in the rural section of Bassin whereas very low and low losses are essentially found in Labranle. The urban area was more severely affected by comparison with the rural area. Damages in the urban area are estimated at 41,206,869.57USD against 698,222,174.10 17,455,554.35USD in the rural area. In the urban part, damages were more severe in Raboteau-Jubilée and in Downtown but Bigot-Parc Vincent had the highest overall damage cost estimated at 9,729,368.95 USD. The lowest cost 7,602,040.42USD was recorded in Raboteau. Approximately, 39.38% of the rural area underwent very low to moderate damages. Bassin was the most severely struck by the 2004 floods, but Bayonnais turned out to have the highest loss cost: 4,988,487.66 USD. Bassin along with Labranle had the least damage cost, 2,956,131.11 and 2,268,321.41 USD respectively. Based on the findings, we recommended the implementation and diversification of income-generating activities, the maintenance and improvement of drains, sewers and gullies cleaning and the establishment of conservation practices upstream of the watersheds. In addition, the model should be applied and validated using actual official records as reference data. Finally, the use of a calculation-based approach is suggested to determine flood damage costs in order to reduce subjectivity during surveys.

The present dissertation proposes a 802.11 network evaluation sequence which can be adopted, independently of the equipment used at the network. The log-distance path loss model is used for the environment characterization (by the model ? parameter) where the network is evaluated. The specific objectives of each evaluation stage are presented and contextualized. The full proposal has initial steps related to the information determination which will be used as references of equipment location and data, and of network performance. Those reference data will be later compared to the handled data obtained from measurements related to the physical and MAC (Medium Access Control) layer performance and behavior, as well as to the transport layer. By the end, one stage to consolidate the measured data is necessary in order to determine a single final result, weigh up according to the specific objectives of the network and/or equipment evaluation. However, the work focus is at the equipment data obtaining stage and at the lower layers (physical and MAC) performance/behavior determination, so that evaluation methods are developed for those two stages. It is demonstrated that the effective transmission physical layer data rates vary much more than what is expected due to the interpretation of the data provided by equipment manufactors. And that better performance could be obtained from complex networks, which made use of multiple access points, installed at unfavorable propagation environments, depending upon the network project.

O melanismo em mam?feros decorre principalmente da atividade de dois genes: MC1R (Melanocortin-1 Receptor), cujo produto induz a produ??o de eumelanina (pretomarrom); e ASIP (Agouti Signaling Protein), que codifica um pept?deo antagonista que promove a produ??o de feomelanina (pigmento claro). A combina??o do efeito destes dois locos faz com que o p?lo cres?a escuro com bandas subapicais amarelas.

Abstract:
Los tendones flexores poseen la habilidad de generar grados variables de fuerza y movimiento en diferentes localizaciones de la mano, lo cual es esencial para la versatilidad de la mano humana y su capacidad de realizar una manipulación precisa y un fuerte agarre. Las lesiones de estos tendones en la zona II son comunes y pueden causar grandes problemas funcionales en la mano, por eso requieren de un manejo adecuado y minucioso. Actualmente, el tipo de cirugía y el protocolo de rehabilitación que se deben utilizar en las lesiones de tendones flexores en la zona II de la mano no están especificados y varían entre los distintos servicios de traumatología. El objetivo del siguiente estudio es describir las mejorías en la movilidad activa total en lesiones de tendones flexores de la zona II de la mano, luego de la utilización del protocolo de Durán modificado. El presente trabajo fue realizado en el Instituto Traumatológico de Santiago y corresponde a un estudio de tipo no experimental y diseño retroprospectivo, longitudinal y descriptivo. La muestra en estudio fue de 20 pacientes con 30 dedos lesionados entre enero del 2004 y mayo del 2006, con reparación primaria o primaria diferida con punto Kessler modificado intratendíneo 4/0 más punto coronal epitendíneo 6/0 e inicio y seguimiento de terapia de rehabilitación mediante el sistema Durán modificado. Según el TAM de Strickland los resultados finales fueron excelentes en 16,66% de los dedos, buenos en 26,66%, regular en 40% y malos en 16,66%. La evolución intra-sujeto mostró una tendencia lineal significativa (P<0,05) con una mejoría significativa entre los tres instantes de tiempo medidos. En conclusión, si bien el porcentaje de dedos con resultados finales satisfactorios fue menor al de estudios extranjeros, se hace difícil la comparación debido a la diferencia biosicosocial. Por otra parte las mejorías de la movilidad activa total fueron significativas luego de la rehabilitación, sin embargo es necesario continuar las investigaciones para poder definir posibles variaciones en las estrategias de tratamiento utilizadas.
Flexor tendons have the ability to generate variable degrees of strenght and movement in different locations of the hand, which is essential for the versatility of the human hand and its capacity to make a precise manipulation and a strong grip. The injuries of these tendons in zone II are common and can cause important functional problems in the hand, for that reason they require a suitable and meticulous treatment. At the moment, the type of surgery and the protocol of rehabilitation that should be used in the injuries of flexor tendons in zone II are not specified and vary between the different services of traumatology. The purpose of the following study is to describe the improvements in total active movements in injuries of flexor tendons of zone II of the hand, after the use of the protocol of modified Durán. The present work was made in the Traumatology Institute of Santiago and corresponds to a type of study non experimental and retroprospective, longitudinal and descriptive design. The sample in study was of 20 patients with 30 injured fingers between January of 2004 and May of 2006, with immediate or delayed primary repair with intratendineous modified Kessler point plus epitendineous coronal point and beginning and continuity of rehabilitation therapy with modified Durán system. According to the Strickland´s TAM, the final results were excellent in 16,66% of the fingers, good in 26,66%, fair in 40% and poor in 16,66%. The intra-subject evolution showed a significant linear tendency (P<0,05) with a significant improvement between the three instances of measured times. In conclusion, although the percentage of fingers with satisfactory final results was smaller to the one of foreign studies, the comparison becomes difficult due to the biosicosocial difference. On the other hand the improvements of total active movement were significant after the rehabilitation, nevertheless it is necessary to continue the investigations to be able to define possible variations in the treatment strategies.

Memoria (licenciado en ciencias jurídicas y sociales)
La presente tesina tiene por objeto responder a la pregunta ¿Cuáles son los criterios que utilizan los tribunales internacionales para realizar una delimitación marítima entre dos Estados? En efecto, cuando dos Estados que mantienen una disputa por sus límites marítimos deciden someter la controversia a un tribunal internacional, éste debe establecer los límites marítimos entre las partes que resuelva la contienda, todo conforme con los principios y reglas del Derecho Internacional y la equidad. Es por ello necesario, identificar los criterios y métodos usados por los tribunales internacionales para realizar la operación de delimitación marítima, pues la jurisprudencia internacional debe convertirse en una herramienta que lleve a objetivizar el proceso de delimitación marítima, eliminando la subjetividad al mínimo. Para responder a la pregunta planteada, analizaremos los casos más recientes en los que se han establecido límites marítimos entre dos Estados, veremos que el criterio de la equidistancia se constituye en el principal método utilizado por los tribunales internacionales y que existe un patrón general identificable en la jurisprudencia internacional, según el cual el proceso de delimitación marítima se realiza en distintas etapas.

Informe de Seminario para optar al grado de Licenciado en Historia
Lo que yo propongo es una lectura, que contempla que los indígenas son productores de saberes y que el español, aunque intente ignorarlo, en ciertas instancias lo reconoce, incluso dentro de un discurso cuyo eje fundamental es la dominación y por tanto busca sustentar su superioridad. Si los indígenas fueron expropiados de sus formas de producción de conocimiento, fue producto de una complicada lucha discursiva, en la que los mismos españoles no logran ser coherentes con el presupuesto de que son ellos los que traen la verdad, el saber, para revelárselo a los indios. Si los indígenas adquirieron modelos de representación de los españoles, esto da cuenta de la capacidad de creación de nuevas prácticas en que se integran elementos extraños y no de una inferioridad ‘natural’ de su tradición cultural. El problema que presento aquí, es cómo desde algunos discursos españoles que se insertan dentro de la dominación se da cuenta del indígena como productor de saberes que no se reprimen, sino que se acogen como eficaces, útiles y necesarios, y como desde aquellas instancias se construye un subalterno que puede tener autoridad en un campo y que sea reconocida por su dominador. Lo anterior es parte de un escenario más extenso, en que las relaciones coloniales son más variadas y presentan mayores matices que dos facciones de colectivos humanos en que uno reprime, somete y explota al otro.
