Abstract:
BACKGROUND and AIMS. Patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) is complex and challenging musculoskeletal disorder. Maltracking of the patella is considered to be one of the primary causative factors. Vastus Medialis Oblique (VMO) and Vastus Lateralis (VL) muscle imbalance in terms of EMG magnitude and timed onset is implicated in either initiating or perpetuating the patellofemoral pain (Cowan et al, 2002, Witvrouw et al, 1996). Many physiotherapeutic treatments are aimed at addressing this muscle imbalance despite a lack of evidence confirming or refuting it exists and it's association with pain and function. The ultimate aim of the study was therefore to establish if it is appropriate to continue treating muscle imbalance in patients with clinically defined PFPS. OBJECTIVES. The overall objectives of the study were to establish: 1. If VMO-VL muscle imbalance exists in PFPS patients and if so is it specific to this condition or does a similar VMO-VL muscle imbalance exists in a healthy population? 2. If muscle imbalance does exist is it related to clinical symptoms used as indications of pain syndrome in clinical practice? 3. Is muscle imbalance associated with lower limb muscle physiology i.e. lower limb and quadriceps muscle strength in both fresh and fatigued states. METHODS. The study employed a cross-sectional design. 63 patients with patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) and 63 age/sex matched healthy subjects were recruited and VMO & VL normalised EMG RMS amplitude and time onset differences were assessed during functional and experimental tasks. Additionally, correlations with pain level, functional status, muscular flexibility and biomechanical characteristics of the lower limb were explored. RESULTS. The results revealed that the VMO-VL activation patterns are task specific and most significantly related to functional stepping down task at a fast speed of execution (p=0.000). This interesting link between the type of muscle contraction, the speed of execution and the recruitment pattern of the VMO-VL was also confirmed by the non-functional isokinetic eccentric contraction (p=0.000). Additionally, it is the timing of the VMO-VL activation rather the intensity that is important. Also, a correlation appears to exist between activation pattern and duration of symptoms and knee functional performance (p=0.03) but not with the level of pain. CONCLUSION. The findings of the study suggest that the VMO-VL muscle imbalance does exist in a clinically defined PFPS population. Unlike previous studies however, this thesis suggests that specificity of the functional activities and speed of execution have a significant role to play in the muscular performance and it could be argued that this translates to a role in PFPS. It would therefore seem appropriate to continue addressing and treating this complex and challenging issue with physiotherapeutic interventions but this may need to be targeted to interventions that are tailored to addressing issues in relation to stepping down and at fast speed.

Ure, A. A. "Vasilii Rozanov and the Creation." Thesis, University College London (University of London), 2009. http://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/18733/.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis will examine the Creation of the world as the referential event in Vasilii Rozanov's religious thought. The first chapter explores Rozanov's rejection of Orthodoxy's formal doctrines, in favour of a philosophy based on man's physical ties with God. Rozanov's God is bisexual, whose creation of the cosmos is a sexual event. Man is linked to God not through Christ (a created being), but biologically, and by his bodily activity which repeats the Creation. Rozanov subverts the eschatology of Orthodoxy, replacing it with an attachment to the material world. The subsequent chapters examine the implications of Rozanov's thought for his Christianity, and specifically the manner in which he tries to make ancient values relevant in contemporary Russian society. The second chapter investigates Rozanov's studies of ancient Egypt. Rozanov tries to restore Egyptian religious practices, in particular their reverence for the Creation. The third chapter turns to Rozanov's writings on the Jews. He believes that the Jews have preserved the rituals they learned from the Egyptians, and therefore can provide a connection between the Russians and pre-Christian civilizations. The final chapter looks at the role played by art, specifically literature, in the restoration of pre-Christian values for Rozanov, arguing that his aesthetics are ethical and based on his interpretation of the Creation. Writing re-enacts the Creation. This thesis argues that Rozanov's thought emerges from the traditions of Russian philosophy, and also from traditional Russian Orthodoxy; in many ways he is a typical Russian thinker, as well as a devout Orthodox believer. Having assumed these traditions, he proceeds to define his thought in opposition to them. This thesis will also illuminate the broader tendencies in the development of Russian thought at this time, and the way Russian thinkers engaged with the established religious teachings of the Church.

Abstract:
Tutkimuksen tavoitteena on tarkastella kirjanpitäjän ja tilintarkastajan vastuuta erilaisissa talousrikollisuuden muodoissa, kuten velallisen rikokset, verorikokset ja kirjanpitorikokset. Vastuun jakautumista tarkastellaan muun muassa suhteessa hallitukseen ja toimitusjohtajaan, kun taloudellinen väärinkäytös on tullut ilmi ja talousrikostutkinta on käynnistynyt. Yrityksen johdon joutuessa taloudellisiin vaikeuksiin tai rikostutkinnan kohteeksi toistuu hyvin usein sama ilmiö, että syyllisiä pyritään hakemaan ulkopuolisista, niin paljon kuin mahdollista. Kirjanpidon pienissäkin virheissä ja puutteissa pyritään vastuuta siirtämään kirjanpitäjälle ja tilintarkastajalle. Aihetta lähestytään yleisestä vastuusta kohti rikosoikeudellista vastuuta. Tutkimuksen empiirisenä aineistona on käytetty korkeimman oikeuden ratkaisuja muun muassa kirjanpitorikoksen, törkeän veropetoksen ja tilintarkastajan huolimattomuuden osalta. Asianmukaisesti hoidetulla tilintarkastuksella sekä ammattitaitoisten kirjanpitäjien suorittamalla neuvonnalla on merkittävä vaikutus kirjanpitorikosten ennalta ehkäisemisessä. Kirjanpidon ja tilinpäätöksen toteuttajan tulee perehtyä riittävästi kirjanpidon, tilinpäätöksen ja toimintakertomuksen laatimista koskeviin säännöksiin sekä määräyksiin. Liiketapahtumat on kirjattava tosiasiallisen luonteensa mukaisesti ja niitä todentavien tositteiden tulee ehdottomasti vastata tosiasioita. Kirjanpitäjän tulee myös olla tarkka ja dokumentoida työnsä. Mitä enemmän kirjanpitoa hoitavan yrityksen ulkopuolinen palvelun tarjoaja ottaa kantaa tositteiden sisältöön, sitä laajemmaksi muodostuu hänen vastuunsa kirjanpidon oikeellisuudesta. Yleisimpiä ongelmia taloudellisissa vaikeuksissa olevassa yhtiössä on laittomat omaisuuden otot kriisiyhtiöstä, vaikka yhtiön taloudellinen tilanne ei salli osingonjakoa. Omistaja voi olettaa osakaslainan nimellä tehdyn noston palkaksi. Suurin osa osakeyhtiössä tehdyistä velallisen rikoksista on osakeyhtiölain vastaisia omaisuudenottoja kriisissä olevasta yhtiöstä. Yhtiöstä nostettujen rahalainojen lisäksi osakaslainakirjaukset saattoivat konkursseissa olla keino piilottaa lainvastainen omaisuuden nosto yhtiöstä. Jos omistaja on mieltänyt sen korvaukseksi tehdystä työstä, on hänellä tuskin aikomusta maksaa sitä takaisin, vaikka sitä on kirjanpidossa käsitelty osakaslainana. Mikäli tilintarkastaja haluaa välttää rikosvastuun, tulee hänen mainita tilintarkastuskertomuksessa osakaslainojen lainvastaisuus jos osakeyhtiölain mukaisia voitonjakoedellytyksiä ei ole ollut. Yleistä on myös, että kirjanpitovelvollinen saattaa haluta jättää osan liiketapahtumista kokonaan kirjaamatta kirjanpitoon. Jos tilintarkastaja havaitsee tämän kaltaisen menettelyn, mutta laiminlyö reagoida siihen voi se täyttää tunnusmerkit, jotka voivat koskea tilintarkastusrikosta ja olla avunanto kirjanpitorikokseen, veropetokseen tai velallisen rikokseen.

Abstract:
Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli selvittää, millaista ammatillista vastuuta sisältyy röntgenhoitajan työssään toteuttamaan säteilyn käyttöön ja säteilysuojeluun. Tarkoituksena oli tuottaa laajempaa tietoa röntgenhoitajan työn sisällöstä säteilynkäytön vastuunäkökulmasta, sillä aiheesta ei löydy kovin paljon tutkittua tietoa. Tutkimusmenetelmänä käytettiin kuvailevaa kirjallisuuskatsausta. Tiedonhaku suoritettiin CINAHL- ja SCIENCEDIRECT-tietokannoista. Lisäksi tehtiin manuaalista tiedonhakua alan verkkojulkaisuista. Tutkimukseen valittiin yhdeksäntoista (N=19) tieteellistä tutkimusta tai artikkelia. Aineiston pohjalta muodostettiin neljä teemaa, joiden kautta röntgenhoitajan toteuttamaa ammatillista vastuuta säteilyn käytössä ja säteilysuojelussa tarkasteltiin. Teemat olivat: 1) röntgenhoitajan työtä ohjaavat lait, asetukset ja eettiset periaatteet ammatillisen vastuun toteuttamisessa säteilynkäytössä ja säteilysuojelussa, 2) röntgenhoitajan osaaminen, tiedot ja taidot ammatillisen vastuun toteuttamisessa säteilynkäytössä ja säteilysuojelussa, 3) röntgenhoitajan työympäristö ja sosiaaliset suhteet ammatillisen vastuun toteuttamisessa säteilynkäytössä ja säteilysuojelussa, 4) röntgenhoitajan ammatti-identiteetti ammatillisen vastuun toteuttamisessa säteilynkäytössä ja säteilysuojelussa. Tulosten mukaan röntgenhoitajan ammatillinen vastuu säteilyn käytössä ja säteilysuojelussa on laaja ja moniulotteinen kokonaisuus. Siihen kuuluu olennaisena osana huolehtiminen siitä, että säteilysuojelun oikeutus-, optimointi- ja yksilönsuojaperiaatteet toteutuvat kuvantamistutkimuksissa. Ammatillinen vastuu on laajentunut röntgenhoitajan ammatissa niin kansainvälisesti kuin kansallisestikin tarkasteltuna. Röntgenhoitajalta odotetaan kykyä toimia oman alansa asiantuntijana jatkuvasti uudistuvien tekniikoiden sekä tutkimus- ja hoitomenetelmien keskellä. Röntgenhoitajan ammatillisen vastuun toteuttamisessa on havaittavissa runsaasti epäkohtia. Ne liittyvät heikkoon ammatti-identiteettiin, omaksuttuihin huonoihin toimintatapoihin, rutinoitumiseen, stressiin, sekä omien vaikutusmahdollisuuksien kokemiseen vähäisiksi. Tutkimuksella saatua tietoa voidaan hyödyntää jatkossa tutkittaessa röntgenhoitajien ammatillista vastuuta. Tutkimustuloksia voidaan hyödyntää myös työyhteisön toimintaa sekä ammatillista koulutusta kehitettäessä
The purpose of this study was to describe radiographer’s professional responsibility in the use of radiation and radiation protection. The aim was to produce wider information about the content of the radiographer’s work and especially about the responsibilities that are related to the use of radiation. The data for this descriptive literature review was gathered from CINAHL and SCIENCEDIRECT databases and by using manual retrieval from the professional electronic publications. 19 researches were chosen for the review. Four themes based on the data analysis were formed and they describe radiographer’s professional responsibility in the use of radiation and radiation protection. Themes are 1) Legislations, regulations and ethical principles that dictate the responsibilities of radiographer’s work, when using radiation and in radiation protection, 2) The knowledge and skills of a radiographer and the effect that they have on radiographer’s professional responsibilities, when working with radiation and in radiation protection, 3) Working environment and social relations and how they dictate the responsibilities of a radiographer’s work when using radiation and in radiation protection, 4) The professional identity of a radiographer and how that dictates the work responsi8bilities when using radiation and in radiation protection. The results showed that radiographer’s professional responsibility in the use of radiation and radiation protection is wide and multidimensional. The principles of justification, optimization and individual dose limitation play a key role in radiographer’s work. It is his or hers responsibility to ensure that these principles are actualized in radiographic examinations. From both international and domestic perspective, there has been an increase in the professional responsibilities of a radiographer. They are expected to be the experts of their own field and to keep up with constantly developing new techniques and examinations and treatment procedures. Several problems regarding the realization of a radiographer’s professional responsibilities were found during the study. They had to do with poor professional identity, bad practices that were adopted, routinization, stress and feelings that they had insufficient means to influence their own work. Information gathered from this study can be utilized in the future, when researching the professional responsibilities of a radiographer and also in both working communities and educational development

Abstract:
The primary purpose of this study was to determine the ratio of activation between the VMO and the VL during an open chain knee exercise (dynamic knee extension) and a closed chain knee exercise (lateral step-up). A secondary purpose of this study was to compare muscle activation during the concentric and eccentric phase of the exercises. The data obtained during the knee extension exercise was further analyzed to compare the activity of the VMO and VL during three ranges of knee flexion: 0° - 30°, 30° - 60°, and 60° - 90°. Electromyographic (EMG) data was collected while 20 Ball State University students, who were asymptomatic for Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome, performed the two selected exercises. A one way ANOVA showed no statistically significant difference between the VMO: VL ratio of the two exercises, but the lateral step-up did produce a ratio greater than 1.0. A one-way ANOVA indicated a significant difference between the RMS values of the VL for the concentric and eccentric phase of the knee extension exercise. Based on the results of this study, the lateral stepup and eccentric training could be used to selectively strengthen the VMO for the treatment of PFPS.

Les risques des décharges électrostatiques (DES) sur des dispositifs et systèmes électroniques dépend de l'état de charge de l'opérateur et des objets situés à proximité. Cette thèse a eu comme objectif de contribuer à la mise au point d'une méthodologie de mesure pour caractériser l'état de charge des opérateurs et des matériaux textiles, afin d'établir leur capacité de produire DES nuisibles. Des méthodes de mesure directes et indirectes ont été proposées pour l'évaluation de la charge des opérateurs dans trois situations d'intérêt pratique. D'autres techniques, telles que la mesure de potentiel de surface et de l'intensité du champ électrique ont été utilisées pour le monitoring de l'état de charge des matériaux textiles. Des modèles comportementaux ont été établis pour la charge et la décharge de ces matériaux, en faisant appel à la méthodologie des plans d'expériences. Les essais réalisés sur des échantillons de polypropylène et de polyester ont permis de valider aussi deux méthodes permettant d'accélérer la diminution de la charge des médias isolants non-tissés en utilisant des générateurs d'ions ou des décharges couronne produites par des électrodes alimentées à des hautes tensions sinusoïdales ou triangulaires, de fréquences allant jusqu’à 400 Hz. Un exemple d'accumulation d'électricité statique sur une plaquette de silicium est aussi discuté, en rapport avec une application à la fabrication des microsystèmes électromécaniques. L'amélioration de la méthodologie de mesure est un pré-requis pour l'adoption des meilleures stratégies destinées à maîtriser les risques électrostatiques dans un environnement industriel
The risk of electrostatic discharge (ESD) on electronic devices and systems depends on the charge state of the operator and nearby objects. This thesis aimed at contributing to the development of a measurement methodology to characterize the state of charge of the operators and textile materials, in order to determine their ability to produce harmful effects. Direct and indirect measuring methods have been proposed for assessing the charge of operators in three situations of practical interest. Other techniques, such as surface potential and electric field intensity measurements were used for monitoring the state of charge of textile materials. Behavioural models have been established for the charging and discharging of these materials, using the methodology of experimental design. Tests on samples of polypropylene and polyester have also validated two methods for accelerating the reduction of the charge of insulating nonwoven media using ion generators or corona discharge produced by electrodes energized from sinusoidal or triangular high voltage supplies, at frequencies up to 400 Hz. An example of static electricity on a silicon wafer is also discussed in relation with an application to the fabrication of mechanical and electronic micro-systems. Refinement of the measurement methodology is a prerequisite for the adoption of best strategies to control electrostatic risks in an industrial environment

Abstract:
The primary purpose of this study was to determine the ratio of activation between the VMO and VL while performing three selected knee exercises (drop squat, modified lateral squat, Muncie Method). Additionally, the data was analyzed to determine if a correlation existed between the muscle's activation rate per set and whether or not the rates are affected by Q-angle or gender. Twenty Ball State University subjects (10 male, 10 female) who were asymptomatic to Patellofemoral Syndrome (PFS), provided electroymyographic (EMG) data while performing the three selected exercises. A one-way ANOVA found no statistical significance (p=0.500) on any of the tested variables except the Drop Squat VL Root Mean Square (RMS). Significant correlations were found between: VL RMS to set number during drop squat, and VMO and VL RMS to set number during Muncie Method performance. Based on the results of this study, each of these exercises could be used to selectively strengthen the VMO in treatment of PFS.

Resumo: A proposta deste trabalho foi observar o comportamento eletromiográfico dos músculos Vasto Medial Oblíquo, Vasto Lateral, Semitendíneo e Bíceps da Coxa (porção longa) durante atividade no aparelho "STEPPING MACHINE", tomando-se as medidas de ângulo 0°, 30°, 60°, 90° para a flexão e extensão da perna na articulação do joelho. Foram analisados 10 voluntários adultos normais, utilizando-se um eletromiógrafo de 8 canais, mini-eletrodos de superfície do tipo BECKMAN e um eletrogoniômetro. O método estatístico empregado foi a análise de variância (ANOVA) e o teste de Tukey. Os resultados mostraram que no movimento de flexão, o músculo Vasto Medial Oblíquo apresentou diferença dos potenciais médios de ação ao nível de 5% de significância para as medidas de ângulo 90°, 30° e 0° e também diferença sifnificante entre 60° e 0°. O músculo Vasto Lateral apresentou diferença significante também em 5% no ângulo 90° em relação °a 60°, 30° e 0°, além de diferença entre 60° e 0°. Os músculos semitendíneo e bíceps da coxa não apresentaram diferença significativa nas diferentes medidas de ângulo. Durante o movimento de extensão do joelho, os músculos Vasto Medial Oblíquo e Vasto Lateral, apresentaram diferença entre as medidas de ângulo 90° e 60° em relação às medidas 30° e 0°. Os músculos semitendíneo e bíceps da coxa, não apresentaram diferença significante entre os potenciais de ação nas várias angulações analisadas. Os resultados sugerem que o aparelho "STEPPING MACHINE" pode ser indicado na reabilitação pós-operatória da articulação do joelho

Full text
Abstract:
Bakgrund: Vastus medialis kan delas in i två olika komponenter beroende på fiberriktning. Den nedre delen vastus medialis oblique (VMO) har sitt ursprung från adductor magnus och drar patella medialt medans vastus lateralis (VL) drar patella lateralt. En obalans mellan VMO och VL kan leda till avvikelse i patellas position och rörelse vilket är en orsak till patellofemoralt smärtsyndrom (PFSS). En aktivering av adductor magnus sätter VMO på sträck vilket leder till bättre kontraktionskraft av VMO. Knäböj utförda på instabilt underlag har visat på en ökad aktivering av VMO. Syfte: Syftet var att göra en initial pilotstudie för att undersöka skillnaden i muskelaktivering av VMO vid knäböj på stabilt underlag jämfört med en knäböj på instabilt underlag med samtidig aktiv höftadduktion. Metoden: Friska unga män utförde knäböj på instabilt underlag med aktiv höftadduktion respektive knäböj på stabilt underlag. Utfallsvariablar var EMG-amplitud på VMO och VL samt kvoten VMO:VL. Resultatet: Samtliga fem deltagare fick minskad muskelaktivering av VMO i övningen knäböj på instabilt underlag med aktiv höftadduktion jämfört med knäböj på stabilt underlag. Två av fem deltagare fick högre VMO:VL-kvot i övningen knäböj på instabilt underlag med aktiv höftadduktion. Konklusion: Resultatet tyder på att en knäböj på instabilt underlag med samtidig aktiv höftadduktion jämfört med en knäböj på stabilt underlag inte ger en ökad aktivering av VMO eller en högre VMO:VL-kvot hos friska unga män. Utifrån resultaten och tidigare studier inom området behövs det mer studier med vissa metodologiska förändringar för att en given slutsats ska kunna dras.

Abstract:
Em As Vidas dos mais ilustres pintores, escultores e arquitetos, Giorgio Vasari afirma que Michelangelo supera e vence a todos os artífices antigos e modernos. Este trabalho investiga como Michelangelo alia a virtude de conhecer as regras das artes antigas e a de alçar-se para além delas, a partir do que escreve Vasari acerca do artífice e de sua pintura, escultura e arquitetura, unidas como artes do desenho. As preceptivas de que trata Vasari delimitam o campo para uma análise tanto da observância quanto das variações que Michelangelo insere nas regras de artes da Antiguidade. O antigo, colocado em um novo lugar, abre caminhos para os artífices de todas as gerações posteriores, pois Michelangelo afrouxa os laços que os fazia pintar, esculpir e arquitetar dentro dos estritos limites da tradição greco-romana.
In Lives of the Most Excellent Painters, Sculptors, and Architects, Giorgio Vasari claims that Michelangelo surpasses and triumphs at all the ancient and modern artificers. This research investigates the way Michelangelo associates the virtue of knowing the ancient art rules and the virtue of going beyond them, according to what Vasari writes about the artificer and his painting, sculpture and architecture, gathering as the arts of design. The preceptives which Vasari deals with delimit the field of the analysis of the observance and of the variations Michelangelo inserts in the art rules from Antiquity. The ancient, in a new place, opens ways to the artificers of all posterior generations, since Michelangelo looses the ties which made them to paint, to sculpt and to architect under the strict limits of the Greek-Roman tradition.

Abstract:
Giorgio Vasari est l'un des plus prolifiques créateurs et metteurs en scène de personnifications du XVIe siècle. Toute son oeuvre est marquée par la présence de ces figures: elles sont présentes au premier plan ou dissimulées à la périphérie de la représentation, elles se mêlent aux protagonistes et aux comparses de la storia ou aux éléments des architectures peintes. Ce qui caractérise la production allégorique de Vasari n'est pas tant l'originalité, dont l'artiste a pourtant fait preuve, que l'abondance et la pertinence de sa 'fabrique' de l'allégorie. Cette dernière condense, à elle seule, les composantes les plus significatives de la culture de cette période, l’''ecriture'' de Vasari étant à plusieurs égards un phénomène socioculturel des plus représentatifs. Le monde de ses figures allégoriques parle en fait le même langage que l'univers rhétorique, philosophique, érudit et courtisan à l'intérieur duquel évoluait l'artiste arétin. Par une étude spécifique des personnifications vasariennes, cette recherche se propose d'entreprendre une archéologie cinquecentesca de la figure allégorique avant la normalisation mise en œuvre à la fin du siècle par Cesare Ripa.

Abstract:
Giorgio Vasari naît le 30 juillet 1511 ; il s'éteint le 27 juin 1574. À la fin de l'année 1554, il entre au service de Cosme Ier de Médicis, duc de Florence, et se voit rapidement confier la responsabilité des travaux de transformation du Palais de la Seigneurie en Palais Ducal. L'artiste livre les clefs de lecture du cycle pictural déployé sur les plafonds et les murs du célèbre monument florentin, connu sous le nom de Palazzo Vecchio, dans une oeuvre peu étudiée : Ragionamenti del Sig. Cavaliere Giorgio Vasari, pittore et architetto aretino, sopra le invenzioni da lui dipinte in Firenze nel Palazzo di loro Altezze Serenissime. Rédigé entre 1558 et 1567, mais publié à titre posthume seulement en 1588, ce texte met en scène Giorgio Vasari et le prince François Ier de Médicis, fils aîné de Cosme Ier et d'Éléonore de Tolède. Sous une plume ekphrastique, au sein de laquelle le mot et l'image s'unissent, l'artiste compose un dialogue distribué sur trois journées et conduit dans trois lieux emblématiques du palais : le Quartier des Éléments, le Quartier de Léon X et la Salle des Cinquecento. L'intérêt de cet ouvrage réside dans les différents niveaux de lecture comme dans les différents "dialogues" qu'il suppose. Si la réécriture de certains épisodes mythologiques, mis en relation directe avec l'histoire de la dynastie médicéenne, participe du dessein officiel de l'oeuvre, à savoir la glorification ducale, le mythe prélude, en raison de son appartenance à un univers ésotérique, à une lecture dérobée du texte vasarien qui, au-delà de servir le règne médicéen, révèle une aura mémorielle nous invitant à appréhender I Ragionamenti de Giorgio Vasari comme un édifice de la Mémoire
Giorgio Vasari was born on 30 July 1511 ; he died on 27 June 1574. At the end of 1554, he starts to be on the service of Cosimo I de' Medici, the Duke of Florence and he quickly sees himself entrusted with the transformation works of the seigneurial palace into a ducal one. The artist delivers the reading guides of the pictorial cycle deployed on the ceilings and the walls of the famous Florentine monument known as Palazzo Vecchio, in Ragionamenti del Sig. Cavaliere Giorgio Vasari, pittore e architetto aretino, sopra le invenzioni da lui dipinte in Firenze nel Palazzo di loro Altezze Serenissime, a little-known and little-studied work. Written between 1558 and 1567, but only posthumous published in 1588, this text stages Giorgio Vasari and Prince Francesco I de' Medici, the elder son of Cosimo I and Eleonora di Toledo. Under a descriptive hand, in which the word and the image unite, the artist composes a dialogue spread over three days and lead in three emblematic places of the palace: the Elements Area, the Leo X Quarter and the Cinquecento Room. The interest of this work lies in the different reading levels as in the different "dialogues" that it means to suggest. If the rewriting of some mythological episodes, directly viewed in relation to the history of the Medici dysnasty, contributes to the official aim of the work - namely the ducal glorification - the myth preludes, owing to its belonging to an esoteric world, a hidden reading of the Vasarian text that, beyond serving the Medici reign, reveals a memory aura inviting us to comprehend Giorgio Vasari's Ragionamenti as an edifice of Memory

The present study investigated the effects of magnitude, velocity and muscle length at which the eccentric stimulus is applied on the longitudinal adaptation of the vastus lateralis muscle (VL). The 31 participants were randomly assigned into two experimental groups to perform 30 sessions of eccentric training for the knee extensors (3 times/week) and one control group. The first experimental group (n=10) exercised one leg at 65% of maximum voluntary isometric contraction (MVC) and the second leg at 100% MVC at 90°/s from 25° to 100° knee angle on an isokinetic device (Biodex 3). The second experimental group (n=10) exercised one leg at 100% MVC at 90°/s from 25° to 65° knee angle and the other leg at 100% MVC at an angular velocity of 240°/s from 25° to 100° knee angle.

Abstract:
Malgré la curiosité qu'il suscite depuis le début du vingtième siècle, le maniérisme italien demeure un phénomène artistique insaisissable dont les délimitations chronologiques (premier maniérisme toscan : 1480-1530, maniérisme académique : 1540-1580 n'éludent guère l'ambiguïté. Sont ainsi réunis sous cette appellation deux artistes aussi antinomiques que Vasari et Pontormo dont les œuvres et profils respectifs divergent totalement. Vasari, auteur des Vite (célèbre ouvrage comprenant deux-cent-cinquante biographies d'artistes) et artiste officiel des Médicis voua sa vie et son art à la glorification de ses protecteurs et appliqua les règles académiques promues par ces derniers. Dans un contexte identique (Florence - début du seizième siècle) Pontormo apparaît comme un artiste marginal et rebelle aux conditionnements courtisans. Mais si tous deux sont identifiés comme des figures maniéristes c'est qu'au-delà de cette apparente antinomie, l'étude de leurs profils respectifs permet de dégager une démarche fondamentalement commune dans l'échec. Echec de Vasari qui sacrifie l'authenticité de son inspiration à ses obligations académiques et contractuelles. Echec de Pontormo qui pour échapper aux pressions et codes artistiques courtisans voua son art et sa vie au monologue
In spite of the interest it has been arousing since the turn of the twentieth century, the italian mannerism still is an elusive artistic expression with the ambiguity can't be eluded by chronological delimitations (first tuscan mannerism : 1480-1530, academic mannerism 1530-1580). Thus, we gather under this denomination two antinomic artists as vasari and pontormo wich the respective works and lifes completely diverge. In fact Vasari, who wrote Le Vite (composed of two hundred and fifty artists biographies and official artist of the Medicis devoted his life and art to his protectors glorification and applied the academic rules. In the same contexte (Florence, turn of the sixteen century) Pontormo looks like a marginal artist, resistant to the court's conditionnings. But, if both of them are identified as mannerist figures it is because beyond this noticeable antinomy their respectif proceedings allow to bring out an itinerary basicly close to failure : Vasari's failure first, who sacrificed his authentical inspiration to his academic and contractual obligations. Pontormo's failure then, who doomed his life and art to a monologue in order to escape the court's and art's pressions and codes

Abstract:
This study investigated the role of human land use and climate as drivers of the historical fire regime of a 400ha protected area in the Okanagan region of British Columbia. I used fire scars and forest demography data to reconstruct spatiotemporal patterns in fires from 1714 - 2013. I also used paleo-climate reconstructions derived from tree ring series to evaluate whether historical fire-climate relationships changed with the displacement of indigenous peoples. Fire patterns were closely coupled with the human history of the study area. Fires were more frequent, less synchronous, and burned earlier in the season when indigenous people were stewarding the study area traditionally. Logistic regression showed that fires were also twice as likely during this period, and that topographic factors were not a significant control of the fire regime. Analysis of fire-climate relationships revealed that human land use superseded the effects of inter-annual and decadal-scale climate as a driver of historical fires. Fires occurred during a variety of conditions when indigenous people were stewarding the study area traditionally, while fires after indigenous people were displaced were associated with El Niño years, which tend to bring warm/dry conditions to the region. The historical fire regime at Vaseux was of mixed-severity in time and space, and this variability helped generate a complex forest structure. Historical fires acted to control tree establishment and mortality, and the forest is now denser than it was historically due to reduced fire frequency in the late 20th century. Continued infilling could shift the fire regime towards a greater component of high-severity fire. The results suggest that indigenous traditional land stewardship was the dominant control of historical fire dynamics at Vaseux. Managers wishing to preserve habitat and forest structures generated by the historical fire regime will need to account for the influence of indigenous burning, and modern lightning intervals will not be a sufficient baseline for setting treatment intervals. Proactive management designed to maintain a fire regime of frequent mixed-severity fires will be necessary to promote ecological resilience in an uncertain future.

Abstract:
In aging populations, musculoskeletal changes cause a decline in the ability to perform activities of daily living, to exercise or to maintain an active lifestyle. Musculoskeletal changes may include the loss of muscle mass (sarcopenia), joint changes (osteoarthritis), or bone deterioration (osteoporosis). These types of musculoskeletal changes can also result in the need for hip surgery, a common procedure in older adults, often resulting from a hip fracture due to a non-traumatic event, or a hip replacement due to osteoarthritis. The primary risk factor for hip surgeries is the underlying musculoskeletal condition: osteoporosis (OP) or osteoarthritis (OA). Each of these conditions can lead to serious disability. In OP, bone density is low and bony microarchitecture is disrupted; in OA, the bones become hard, and develop outgrowths. Skeletal muscle plays an active role in bone density and strength, making it reasonable to assume that the structure and characteristics of skeletal muscle tissue will also affect bones and joints. The purpose of this study is to describe morphological and histological differences in muscle fibre characteristics of an important lower extremity muscle, the vastus lateralis (VL). These characteristics were compared between persons undergoing hip surgery and a control group of comparably-aged older adults. This comparison occurred by quantifying the percentage of normal and abnormal muscle fibres, as well as the percentage of adipocytes. Using an ANCOVA to examine between group differences, this study found a difference (p

Abstract:
Anterior cruciate ligament tears are one of the most common injuries that occur, especially in female athletes. It requires surgery and months of physical therapy to get these athletes back in playing condition. The angle of women's hips and lack of strength of inner quadriceps muscles enhances the risk of injuries to the knees. One specific muscle that is known for being a stabilizer of the knee and may help in preventing ACL tears is the vastus medialis. By understanding what exercises activate this muscle the most, conditioning plans and preventative workouts need to be created to help female athletes stabilize the knee. Therefore, this research could impact the prevention of ACL tears in female athletes. By taking a generalized approach, a variety of exercises in each of the three muscle contractions: concentric, eccentric, and isometric, will be evaluated by a Vernier Electromyography system. For this research, one female will be tested doing all the movements three times to measure the average peak muscle activation for each exercise. This will help prevent outliers and human error. For this study, variables such as percent body fat, BMI, history of exercising, and previous strength were ignored.

Abstract:
Yliopistokoulutuksesta valmistuvat varhaiskasvattajat ovat pedagogisen toiminnan suunnittelun, toteutuksen ja arvioinnin asiantuntijoita. Pedagogista asiantuntijuutta on kuitenkin tarkasteltu vähän työelämään siirtyneiden ja vastavalmistuneiden varhaiskasvattajien kokemuksista. Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli selvittää vastavalmistuneiden varhaiskasvattajien kokemuksia koulutuksen ja työelämän pedagogisen asiantuntijuuden vastaavuudesta. Pedagogista asiantuntijuutta tarkasteltiin ensisijaisesti koulutusvalmiuksien, mutta myös työelämän kautta. Teoreettinen viitekehys muodostui koulutuksen ja pedagogisen asiantuntijuuden tarkastelusta. Tämän laadullisen tutkimuksen aineisto kerättiin teemahaastattelun avulla neljältä vuoden 2016 keväällä Oulun yliopistosta kasvatustieteen kandidaateiksi (KK) valmistuneilta ja työelämään siirtyneiltä varhaiskasvattajilta. He työskentelivät sekä julkisella, että yksityisellä sektorilla pääosin Pohjois-Pohjanmaan alueella. Aineiston analysoitiin sisällönanalyysimenetelmällä. Tutkimustuloksissa koulutuksen tuoma asiantuntijuus koettiin pedagogiseksi osaamiseksi, työtä ohjaavien asiakirjojen tuntemiseksi sekä yhteistyö- sekä oppimisen ohjaamistaidoiksi. Varhaiskasvattajat toimivat tiimeissään pedagogisina johtajina. Harjoittelujen ja pienryhmätoimintataitojen tuoma osaaminen koettiin koulutuksen tuomaksi asiantuntijuudeksi. Moniammatillisesta yhteistyöstä, erityispedagogisesta osaamisesta, tiiminjohtamisesta sekä vanhempien kanssa yhteistyössä toimimisesta ja kohtaamisvalmiuksista koettiin koulutuksessa puutteita. Vuorovaikutustaidot olivat muualla kuin koulutuksessa kehittyneitä. Kokemukset omasta ammatillisesta asemasta heijastuivat vastavalmistumiseen ja työn kuormittavuuteen. Tutkimustulosten johtopäätöksenä kandidaatin tutkinnon katsottiin vastaavan varhaiskasvattajan pedagogiseen asiantuntijuuteen ja osaamiseen. Koulutukselliset ja osaamispuutteet näyttäytyvät pitkälti moniammatillisessa ja perheiden kanssa tehtävässä yhteistyössä sekä erityispedagogisessa osaamisessa. Pedagogista asiantuntijuutta tarkasteltiin koulutuksen tuomien ja työelämään vastaavien taitojen kautta. Positiivisena koettu pedagoginen asiantuntijuus nähtiin niin koulutuksessa kuin työelämässäkin kehittyneeksi.

Abstract:
Lorsque Vasari insère ses contemporains dans la seconde édition des Vies, de nouvelles conditions d’écriture se présentent à lui. Sa situation professionnelle a également changé : il travaille désormais officiellement au service de Cosme Ier de Médicis. Ce qui, en 1550, était un recueil de Vies d’hommes illustres devient aussi, en 1568, une histoire du présent. L’éloge se trouve transformé du fait de la nouvelle perspective de réception du texte. Loin d’être l’adulateur inconditionnel qu’on a souvent voulu voir en lui, Vasari choisit au contraire de se forger une image d’historien impartial afin de mieux condamner. Le genre de la biographie historique hérité de Paolo Giovio, remanié par Vasari et appliqué au domaine artistique, donne son originalité au texte des Vies, dans lesquelles l’auteur se donne les moyens rhétoriques de porter des jugements sévères sur la vie artistique de son temps
The context of Giorgio Vasari’s writing changed when he added references to his contemporaries in the second edition of the Vite. Professionally, his situation was not the same either – he was now officially working for Cosimo I de’ Medici. In 1568 what in 1550 had been a collection of the lives of illustrious men also became a history of the present. The use of praise and blame was affected by the new perspective in which the book was to be read. Far from being the unreserved admirer he has often been described as, Vasari chose to present himself as an impartial historian in order to be more effective in distributing blame. Historical biography, a genre inherited from Paolo Giovio, which Vasari reshaped and used in the context of art, gives the text of the Vite its distinctiveness, in which the author builds the rhetorical tools needed to make severe judgments, including on the artistic life of his day

In Ndzhaka ya vusiwana two stories were analysed, namely; “Mudlayi wo tidlaya” and “Vubombi bya swolomba”. In Mangava ya Joni two stories were analysed, namely; “Xiwelano” and “Xihahisile”. Textual analysis was used in this study to analyse the behaviour of tycoons’ wives. Textual analysis is the method communication researchers use to describe and interpret the characteristics of a recorded and visual message. The purpose of textual analysis is to describe the content, structure and functions of the messages contained in texts. This study was attempted to answer the following questions:  What is the behaviour of the wives of tycoons in Xihungasi and Mangava ya Joni?”  What influenced the wives of tycoons to have such behaviour?  What are the benefits of such behaviour? The findings of the study revealed that in most cases, the wives of tycoons have good behaviour. They love their rich husbands and children, are very hardworking and they respect other people. The findings of this study also revealed that in most cases the tycoons have various behaviour patterns. Some tycoons have good behaviour while others are violent, hate other people and dishonest. The findings of this study also revealed that the wives of tycoons are influenced by their childhood behaviour, neighbours and friends. Their love to their husbands also influence them to behave properly.

Abstract:
When Giorgio Vasari wrote the 'Vite de'piu eccellenti pittori, scultori ed architettori', the intended audience of his text not only included the artists of his own time, but also involved his Medici patrons. Indeed, the book was dedicated to Cosimo I de'Medici. The 'Vite' were thus intended as a guide for artists and as a means of paying homage to Vasari's patron. The quest for artistic perfection, through knowledge, was united with courtly principles and iconography, resulting in the raising of the status of the arts above the level of the mechanical. This was most resolutely achieved through the analysis of medicine, and in particular, the theory of the four humours, which not only governed medical practice, but also were of astrological and philosophical significance. While Vasari's vocabulary drew upon the symbolism of the Medici, who were born under the planet of Saturn, which also governed the melancholy humour, his discussion of the diseases suffered by artists was based upon the sciences of Hippocrates, Aristotle, Galen and Avicenna and were mainly caused by melancholy. Vasari's text also provided the melancholic with his cure, most notably at the Company of the Cazzuola. Here, the artists and their Medici patrons could find repose and amusement. Entertainments were based upon those of the court and included theatrical performances and banqueting. However, medical knowledge was also of practical significance to the painter and the sculptor. It provided a guide to the internal workings of man and thus, the external appearance of disease in the human body. The alteration in human appearance, as a symptom of disease was fully noted by Vasari in his physiognomic descriptions of the artists' appearances caused by temperament, character and disease and finally, found inclusion in the teachings of the Accademia del Disegno of which Giorgio Vasari had been a founding member.

Il sistema linfatico ricopre un ruolo di grande importanza all’interno del corpo umano, soprattutto per quanto riguarda la risposta immunitaria e il mantenimento dell’omeostasi corporea. L’elaborato si focalizza sull’analisi di un articolo di A. M. Venugopal e coll. del 2004 nel quale viene ricercata una relazione tra lunghezza delle unità strutturali dei vasi linfatici, i “linfangioni”, e il flusso della linfa che scorre in essi. In una prima parte dell’elaborato si trovano dei richiami ai principali elementi di fisiologia e anatomia della circolazione linfatica. Nel corpo centrale è descritto il modello matematico del sistema linfatico e i passi della successiva elaborazione al calcolatore. Infine, una volta ultimati i calcoli, si giunge alla conclusione che, per massimizzare il valore del flusso medio all’interno di un vaso linfatico, esiste una struttura ottima del vaso stesso, con una lunghezza del linfangione compresa fra i 3 cm e i 4 cm. Il modello proposto costituisce certamente una buona base di partenza per ulteriori studi volti ad approfondire la relazione fra struttura e funzione dei vasi linfatici e per avere, quindi, una maggiore conoscenza del sistema linfatico nella sua totalità.

Abstract:
The South African society is characterised by high levels of risk factors which can have a significantly negative impact on the development of children. The impact of risk factors from an early age can hinder intellectual and emotional growth during the critical stage (middle childhood) of development. Middle childhood can be described as the relatively tranquil period during which patterns and routines are embedded and cognitive-, social-, emotional- and self-conceptualisation are formed. Children are daily exposed to risks and stressful events that can lead to negative outcomes. The impact of risks and adversity sets challenges for the child that test his/her coping abilities and perseverance within a given period and situation. The idea behind resilience is to accept these challenges through utilising protective factors and decreasing the effects of risk factors. The Children’s Coping Strategies Checklist of Ayers and Sandler (1999) was used to assess resilience and The Resilience and Youth Development Module (RYDM) of WestEd (1999 & 2002) to measure participants’ perceptions of the school, home, environment and peer group as external protective domains as well as participants ability in seven psychosocial internal assets and their experience of certain risk factors. A biographical questionnaire was used to gather demographic information of the learners. The findings indicated positive coping abilities (resilience), protective perceptions of external and internal assets and low levels of risk experience (resilience) in the majority of participants. Significant differences were found between boys and girls and between the age groups 10 and 13 years. Theoretically, these findings indicate resilience in the majority of this group of learners who reside in a socio-economically deprived milieu characterised by risk factors.

Abstract:
The purposes of the present study were to resolve a number of major inconsistencies found in the literature on the structure of the quadriceps femoris muscle and to extend knowledge of its structure using descriptive, qualitative methodology. The quadriceps femoris muscle was investigated in 41 cats, and the findings were confirmed in 6 human cadavers. Two aponeuroses with major biomechanical functions (rectus-vastus and vastus aponeurosis), neither of which had been previously described in the literature, were characterized in both species. The study also resolved many major inconsistencies in the literature: The muscle sometimes described as vastus intermedius (VI) was found to be the articularis genu, the muscle sometimes described as vastus medialis (VM) was found to be the VI, the rectus femoris head was found to have an additional proximal nerve branch not previously recognized, no anomalous 5th head was ever found, and the distal VM were not found to have 2 heads (in either cats or humans). The authors’ anatomical descriptions and bimechanical models of the muscles, tendons, and neurovascular should provide a helpful foundation for future studies on the quadriceps. Two general recommendations are made: 1) that the feline model be considered a viable model to elucidate human knee pathomechanics; and 2) that regardless of the anatomical structure of interest, orthopedic nurses, orthopedic surgeons, and research investigators should routinely use the research literature for anatomical guidance instead of standard anatomical textbooks. © 2002, Sage Publications.

Abstract:
Lo “espiritual” comparece hoy como concepto sobreentendido, lo cual conduce a una frecuente subutilización de la expresión. El equívoco se deriva a partir de la sistemática que planteó la metafísica del Idealismo alemán en la que lo espiritual convoca al perfeccionamiento humano como su contenido, y cuyo objeto axiológico se identifica con el modelo de razón como entelequia. En vista del aspecto determinante de ese modelo para la Filosofía posterior, la conceptualización de “espiritual” desconoce una parte de su historia, atravesada por tradiciones culturales y religiosas. El caso de Kandinsky funciona aquí como nodo que ata implicaciones filosóficas del Idealismo alemán y del Idealismo religioso ruso, de manera que lo estético post-kantiano se enmarca en el influjo de lo religioso cristiano en su personalidad. Un análisis fenomenológico-hermenéutico del caso resulta en la formación de un concepto de das Geistige que convoca la noción de espiritual relativa a lo numinoso.
The “spiritual” appears today as a hypothecated concept leading to a frequent underuse of the expression. To an extent, the equivocal derives from the systematics granted by the German Idealism metaphysics, in which the spiritual calls for human perfecting as its own content, and of which the axiological object is identified as the model of Reason as entelechy. Observing at the determining aspect of such model for later Philosophy, the conceptualization of the “spiritual” disavows part of its history, which undergoes through the development of cultural and religious traditions. The case of Kandinsky works here as a node to which philosophical implications of both, German Idealism and Russian religious Idealism, arrive, therefore the post-kantian aesthetical gets framed by the Christian religious influence over his personality. A phaenomenological-hermeneutical analysis of the case succeeds informing a concept of das Geistige that calls that notion of “spiritual” which is relative to the numinous.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis is concerned with interrogating the major fiction of Vasilii Grossman and Iurii Dombrovskii in the context of trauma theory, identifying the ways in which the theory illuminates the representation of catastrophic events in Russian fiction and at the same time probing the limits of trauma theory itself. Trauma theory has often been deemed to be a “Western” concept, and its applicability to the Soviet experience has been questioned. Recently the concept has gained some ground in Soviet studies as well. Focusing on the relationship between an event and its traumatic impact, I investigate the narratives that are created about this relationship, with a particular focus on identity and unrepresentability, two concepts which are central to both trauma and Soviet studies. In my research I have found that the relevance of trauma theory can be challenged but not rejected in its entirety. The fiction of Grossman and Dombrovskii allows a creative approach to collective experience, which enables the event to be processed in unexpected ways.

Full text
Abstract:
Précieuse source d’informations sur l’auteur des Vies des meilleurs peintres, sculpteurs et architectes, la correspondance de Giorgio Vasari (1511-1574) est bien connue des historiens de l’art depuis son édition par Karl Frey (1923-1930). La conservation rigoureuse de ses nombreuses lettres ainsi que la remarquable qualité stylistique d’une grande partie d’entre elles, invitent à s’interroger sur la valeur que Vasari lui-même pouvait attribuer à son écriture épistolaire. Voyait-il ses lettres comme une partie fondamentale de son legs culturel ? On peut se demander s’il avait pu caresser le projet de les publier sous forme de recueil, conformément à une pratique très diffusée chez les hommes doctes du XVIe siècle. C’est justement un recueil qui se distingue tout particulièrement au sein du riche carteggio vasarien : le manuscrit Riccardiano 2354, de la Bibliothèque Riccardiana de Florence. Datant de la fin du XVIe siècle, ce petit codex contient quarante-huit missives copiées par le neveu et principal hériter de l’artiste arétin, Giorgio Vasari le Jeune (1562-1625), fonctionnaire médicéen versé dans différents savoirs techniques et scientifiques. Cette étude analyse les opérations de sélection, de transcription et de possible transformation menées par Vasari le Jeune à partir des sources épistolaires originales de son oncle, aujourd’hui introuvables. Des indices matériels et textuels laissent penser que le volume de la Riccardiana pourrait avoir été conçu comme un « livre de lettres » destiné à la publication, mais finalement jamais paru. Une initiative éditoriale avortée donc, visant la célébration posthume de la vie et de l’œuvre de Vasari à travers la valorisation de son héritage épistolaire. La lecture croisée des textes du recueil et d’autres missives qui y furent exclues, permet de reconnaître, en amont de l’entreprise de Giorgio le Jeune, un dessein de reconstitution biographique qui privilégie certains aspects de la figure de Vasari, en omet d’autres et, parfois, plie l’héritage culturel de l’artiste aux exigences d’affirmation personnelle du neveu dans le contexte médicéen de son temps. La résultante principale de cette recherche est une réflexion sur les dynamiques propres à l’écriture épistolaire de Vasari, sur les fonctions diverses qu’elle pouvait endosser dans les différentes phases de sa carrière d’artiste et d’écrivain. Car la pratique épistolaire fut pour Vasari un outil privilégié pour la mise en représentation de soi vis-à-vis de son réseau de correspondants, pour l’apprentissage de la parole littéraire et pour l’élaboration des procédés de l’ekphrasis, plus largement développés dans les Vies
A valuable source of information on the author of The Lives of the Artists, the correspondence of Giorgio Vasari (1511-1574) is well known to art historians, mainly since its almost complete edition published by Karl Frey (1923-1930). If we consider the fact that Vasari zealously kept his numerous letters during his whole life, as well as the remarkable stylistic quality of many of these texts, we realise the importance of inquiring into how significant his epistolary writing could have been to him. Did Vasari see his missives as an essential part of his cultural legacy? In this case, it has to be questioned whether the artist could have ever conceived the project of publishing a selection of his letters, in accordance with a widespread practice among literates in the Fifteenth century. A collection of Vasari’s letters was actually gathered and still stands out from the large number of documents of his vast carteggio: it’s the manuscript Riccardiano 2354, held by the Biblioteca Riccardiana in Florence. Dating from the late Fifteenth century, this small codex contains forty-eight letters posthumously copied by the artist’s nephew and principal heir of his estate, Giorgio Vasari the Younger (1562-1625), an official of the Medicean Court deeply versed in several scientific and technical disciplines. This study investigates the process of selection, transcription and possible manipulation conducted by Vasari the Younger on his uncle’s original epistolary sources, which are nowadays still missing. Several material or textual hints can suggest that the Riccardiana’s volume might have been a “libro di lettere”, a book of letters designed for publication, but finally never printed. The chief aim of this editorial effort would have been a posthumous celebration of Vasari’s life and artistic achievements, through the highlighting of his missives. The comparison between the texts included in the Riccardiana’s manuscript and other excluded letters, allows us to recognise, as the essential mainstay in Giorgio the Younger’s work, the design of a biographical depiction of Vasari’s figure, focusing on specific traits and omitting others. The artist’s epistolary legacy seems to be occasionally subject to his nephew’s personal career requirements in the Medicean context of his time. The result of this research is a series of considerations on the dynamics inherent in Vasari’s epistolary writing, such as the various functions that it could assume according to the different phases of the artist’s career. Epistolarity has been Vasari’s main tool for self-fashioning towards his correspondents; as well as for literary learning and for the conception of the device of ekphrasis, developed on a larger scale in the Lives

Abstract:
Suomi ja suomalainen yhteiskunta kokivat 1960- ja 1970-luvuilla suuren ja kokonaisvaltaisen muutoksen josta käytetään usein nimitystä murros. Murrokseen liittynyt yhteiskunnallisen paradigman muutos kohti hyvinvointivaltiota ja sosiologista ajattelutapaa näkyi selvästi myös liikunta- ja urheilukulttuurissa. Samoihin aikoihin kuntoliikunta alkoi yleistyä eikä kilpaurheilu ollut enää ainoa liikkumaan motivoinut tekijä tai huomiota osakseen saanut liikunnan muoto. Kunnallinen liikuntatoimi oli monella tapaa keskiössä aiemmin vallinneen urheilupolitiikan muuttuessa koko kansan liikkumista ja kuntoliikuntaa korostavaksi ja edistäväksi liikuntapolitiikaksi. Tässä Pro gradu-tutkielmassa tutkin 1970-luvun liikuntapolitiikan murroksen näkymistä ja vaikutuksia Oulun kaupungin urheilutoimeen joka lopulta muuttui 1981 liikuntatoimeksi. Nimenmuutokseen tiivistyy vuosikymmenen kehitys kunnallisen liikuntatoimen toiminnan sisällöissä ja laadussa. Perinteisestä kilpaurheiluolosuhteiden järjestäjästä ja urheiluseuratyön tukijasta tuli kaupunkilaisten kuntoliikuntaa aktiivisesti edistänyt monipuolinen toimija. Paitsi toimintakentän laajenemista ja monimuotoistumista, merkitsi 1970-luku myös Oulun kaupungin urheilutoimen resurssien huimaa kasvua. Alle vuosikymmenessä kaupungin urheilutoimen käyttöönsä saamat taloudelliset resurssit jopa seitsenkertaistuivat. Niin uusia valtakunnallisen tason urheilulaitoksia, kuten jäähalli, uimahalli ja urheilustadion, kuin kasvavan kaupungin esikaupunkialueiden kaipaamia lähiliikuntapaikkoja rakennettiin paljon. Myös liikuntapaikkojen laatu ja taso nousivat uudelle tasolle ja liikunnanohjaustyö lisääntyi. Kehitykseen vaikutti paitsi ylhäältä valtiovallan puolesta tullut ohjaus, myös alhaalta päin kaupunkilaisilta tulleet uudenlaiset odotukset ja vaatimukset kaupungin roolista liikuntapalveluiden järjestäjänä, tukijana ja tuottajana. Kasvaneesta roolistaan liikuntapalveluissa huolimatta Oulun kaupungilla oli vaikeuksia pysyä kasvunsa ja yleisen liikuntakulttuurin kehityksen aikaansaaman kysynnän lisääntymisen mukana. Tämä korostui etenkin uusien esikaupunkialueiden lähiliikuntapalveluiden kohdalla. Liikunnan edistäminen ja tukeminen sopivat hyvin ajalle tyypilliseen hyvinvointivaltioajattelun nousuun ja 1981 voimaanastunut ensimmäinen liikuntalaki kertoo osaltaan tästä. Kuntien tehtävien nopea kasvu, talouden nousukausi, lisääntynyt vapaa-aika ja työn yleinen fyysisyyden väheneminen lisäsivät paineita liikunnan roolin lisäämiseen kuntien terveyttä ja hyvinvointia edistävässä strategisessa työssä. Liikunta oli saanut yhteiskunnallisen merkityksen ja sitä kautta lisäresursseja ja tehtäviä osakseen, siinä missä kasvaneita odotuksiakin. Oulun kaupunki oli jonkin verran samankokoisia Etelä-Suomen kaupunkeja jäljessä tässä kehityksessä, mutta 1970-luvun puolivälin suuret panostukset urheiluun kuroivat tätä eroa kiinni. Oulun kaupungin urheilutoimi muuttui työn otsikon osoittamalla tavalla liikuntatoimeksi vuosien 1969–1981 kehityksen päätteeksi. Kaupunki vastasi lopulta myös työn otsikossa siteeratun sanomalehti Kalevan vuonna 1972 uutisotsikossaan heittämään haasteeseen vastuunkantajan löytämisestä kaupunkilaisten kuntokipinän vaalimisessa.

Full text
Abstract:
This study is the first to explore the secular uses of Vastu Vidya or the traditional Indian science of architecture, at the levels of both theory and contemporary practice. It is also the first to treat Vastu Vidya as constituting a coherent and complete architectural programme within the Indian tradition. In providing a comprehensive overview of the corpus of Vastu Vidya, the study makes ample reference to the representative texts on the subject of architecture, and also to those on allied subjects that fall within the same tradition, such as astrology, medicine, philosophy, the visual and performing arts, and codes of conduct. Structured like the layout of a typical Vastu Vidya text, the work covers all of the primary prescriptions for dwelling design. Today, the use of Vastu Vidya as a complete architectural design methodology has diminished value, but this study identifies various fragmented uses of the corpus of Vastu Vidya which continue directly and indirectly to influence architectural practice; and it analyses the new roles which such fragments take on. The architectural tradition of Vastu Vidya stands apart from the recognised architectural profession and is being modified and rewritten, adopting meanings and uses unprecedented in its history. Aspects of Vastu Vidya are being redefined to facilitate their uses in the mainstream contemporary architectural practice. The study examines how modern architects view and use Vastu Vidya; how Vastu consultants, in their redefined role, negotiate some aspects of Vastu Vidya for the contemporary architectural practice, assisted by their indifference towards architectural design; how craftsmen, whose skills and knowledge fall outside the ambit of mainstream architectural practice, struggle to survive and confront modernity; and how priests and astrologers continue to perform rituals and offer advice on the suitability of elements of construction, without interfering with the architectural envelope. Some of the new roles of Vastu Vidya are so remote from its traditional role that it may be unrecognisable as a part of Vastu Vidya; but each of these uses, albeit fragmentary, are generally projected as authentic uses of Vastu Vidya. This is the only study to examine mutation in the application of fragments of Vastu Vidya, while viewing it in the perspective of the whole and original body of knowledge.

This degree project aims to investigate the potential and possibilities for conceptual energyanalyses in the early stages of the design process. Many key decisions are made in theearly stages of a project regarding the shape and orientation of the building. Conceptualenergy analyses can provide the architects with insight regarding different design option’srelative energy performance.As the demands for more sustainable buildings increases, so does the need for earlyenergy analyses. Performing analyses in the early stage requires many assumptions andguesswork which could lead to a large margin of error.The offering from Autodesk is a module in Revit Architecture/MEP and the stand aloneprogram Project Vasari (under development). It is an interesting tool for architects with aneasy and quick work flow and can easily be implemented in today’s design process.The analysis of the results generated shows that the program has a margin of error thatmake some of the features less useful. Comparing the results with an analysis done in amore established and sophisticated software suggests that the result at this stage cannot betrusted.

Resumo: A primeira edição de "As Vidas dos mais excelentes arquitetos, pintores e escultores italianos de Cimabue aos nossos dias", escrita por Giorgio Vasari (1511-1574), arquiteto e pintor de Arezzo, é publicada em 1550. Ela é marcada pelas questões que animavam a Academia Florentina (1541) - a questão da historia, da língua vernácula e da sua difusão - e pela "disputa entre as artes", conforme proposta por Benedetto Varchi (1503-1565) nas célebres "Duas Lições". A segunda edição das "Vidas", publicada em 1568, será marcada por outra academia e por nova versão da "disputa"; i.é, pela Academia delle Arti del Disegno e o texto "Una Selva di Notizie", escrito por Dom Vincenzo Borghini(1515-1580), lugar-tenente da nova academia, rediscutindo a hierarquia entre as artes. Para a nova Academia, fundada em 1563, e para o texto "Una Selva di Notizie" (1564), a referência e modelo eram aqueles, institucional e intelectual, da década de "40. Tanto a academia dos artistas, fundada pelo próprio Vasari junto com o filólogo Borghini, seria inspirada na Academia Florentina, conforme declarado por eles, quanto a retomada da "disputa entre as artes" pelo lugar-tenente da Academia do Desenho, fazia referência à Lição de Varchi e às cartas escritas pelos artistas em resposta ao debate de quase vinte anos antes. Tais aspectos institucionais, e as distintas características do debate intelectual, influenciam respectivamente cada uma das edições com idéias que procuramos ressaltar e analisar no âmbito da política cultural do duque Cosimo I

It is marked by questions that directed the Florentine Academy (1541) - the question of history, of the vernacular ando its dissemination - and by the "dispute between the arts", as proposed by Benedetto Varchi (1503- 1565) in the famous "Due Lezzioni" (Two Lessons). The second edition of the "Lives", published in 1568, is marked by another Academy and by new version of the "dispute"; i.e. by the Academia delle Arti del Disegno and the text "Una Selva di Notizie", written by Don Vincenzo Borghini(1515-1580), lieutenant of the new Academy, rejudging the hierarchy between the arts. For the new Academy, founded in 1563, and the text "Una Selva di Notizie" (1564), the reference and model were those, institutional and intellectual, of the "40s. Both the academy of the artists, founded by Vasari himself along with the philologist Borghini, would be inspired by the Florentine Academy, as stated by them, as the resumption of the "dispute between the arts" by the Lieutenant of the Academy of drawing, made reference to the Lesson of Varchi and letters written by the artists in response to the debate of almost twenty years before.

Abstract:
Ce travail de thèse a pour objectif, en s’appuyant sur le cas de la baie de Concarneau, de comprendre l’impact du développement de denses populations de l’amphipode tubicole Haploops nirae sur la diversité structurelle et fonctionnelle des peuplements sablo-vaseux de Bretagne Sud. L’étude des peuplements à Haploops dans ce projet de thèse se décline selon plusieurs niveaux d’organisation du vivant, du rôle spécifique d’Haploops nirae jusqu’au rôle fonctionnel du peuplement au sein de l’écosystème en passant par la description de la composition spécifique du peuplement et de son rôle sur la biodiversité en général. Nos résultats suggèrent dans un premier temps que le rôle fonctionnel de l’espèce seule (pression de filtration, production secondaire) est potentiellement important. De plus, les modifications physiques de l’habitat par les Haploops se sont révélées avoir des conséquences très importantes sur la composition des peuplements et la diversité spécifique. A contrario, l’étude de la diversité fonctionnelle abordée par l’analyse des traits biologiques (BTA) et la production secondaire des peuplements révèle que les conséquences fonctionnelles de la présence des Haploops dans un écosystème sont dans l’ensemble faibles. De la même façon, l’étude du fonctionnement trophique des peuplements benthiques de la baie de Concarneau (grâce à l’utilisation des isotopes stables) révèle une faible incidence fonctionnelle du développement des Haploops sur la structure du réseau trophique benthique. Bien que les peuplements à Haploops ne soient pas caractérisés par de profonds changements fonctionnels, les flux trophiques vers les niveaux trophiques supérieurs sont cependant vraisemblablement affectés par la présence des Haploops
This thesis aims here, based on the case of the Bay of Concarneau, to understand the impact of the development of dense populations of the tubiculous amphipod Haploops nirae on the structural and functional diversity of sandy-mud communities of South Brittany. The study of Haploops communities was developed on various levels of organization of life, from the specific role of Haploops nirae to functional role of Haploops community in the ecosystem passing through the description of the community composition and its role on the biodiversity. Our results suggest firstly that the functional role of Haploops nirae alone (filtration pressure, secondary production) is potentially important. Moreover, the physical changes induced by Haploops were found to have important consequences on the composition of species assemblages and species diversity. In contrast, the study of the functional diversity addressed by biological traits analysis (BTA) and secondary production at the community scale reveals that the functional consequences of Haploops occupation in an ecosystem are generally low. In addition, the analysis of the trophic functioning of benthic communities from the Bay of Concarneau (through the use of stable isotopes) showed low incidence of Haploops occupation on the functioning of the benthic food web. Although Haploops communities are not characterized by profound functional changes, trophic flows to higher trophic levels, however, are likely to be affected by the presence of Haploops

Abstract:
Cette thèse s’organise autour d’une réflexion sur la portée psychanalytique de la notion de « geste ». Nous l’avons envisagée aussi bien à travers une conception métapsychologique comme dans sa portée clinique. Le geste, que nous avons voulu clairement différencier de la gestuelle, donne ainsi lieu à un questionnement théorique sur son rapport au corps, et à un autre clinique lié à son incidence et son utilité dans la clinique des psychoses. En théorie, le geste devait s’organiser autour de la problématique du corps pour que s’esquisse une conception de ses fonctions et des implications métapsychologiques de sa structure, permettant in fine la différenciation entre le geste et sa manifestation éventuelle à travers des images — l’image du geste. Nous avons questionné la portée pratique et clinique de cette conception du geste par l’analyse psychanalytique d’un texte délirant, les Cahiers du chorégraphe-danseur Vaslav Nijinski, mais également par la présentation du cas d’une patiente schizophrène
This thesis is organized around a reflection on the psychoanalytic scope of the notion of "gesture". We have envisioned it both through a metapsychological conception and in its clinical scope. The gesture, which we wanted to clearly differentiate from body movements, thus gives rise to a theoretical questioning of its relationship to the body, and to another clinic related to its incidence and usefulness in the clinic of psychoses. In theory, the gesture had to be organized around the problem of the body in order to sketch a conception of its functions and the metapsychological implications of its structure, ultimately allowing the differentiation between the gesture and its eventual manifestation through images — the image of the gesture. We questioned the practical and clinical significance of this conception of the gesture by the psychoanalytic analysis of a delirious text, the Diary of the choreographer-dancer Vaslav Nijinski, but also by the presentation of the case of a schizophrenic patient

Full text
Abstract:
L'objectif premier de cette recherche, réalisée dans le cadre du génie civil, est de modéliser les processus sédimentaires verticaux (dépôt, tassement, et érosion), faisant partie de la dynamique sédimentaire des vases dans les estuaires.
Afin de parvenir à ce but, trois démarches différentes sont suivies :
- Analyse des modèles couramment utilisés en sédimentologie.
- Adaptation aux problèmes sédimentaires des modèles utilisés dans d'autres disciplines.
- Proposition de nouveaux modèles.
Les modèles proposés tiennent compte des actions mécaniques et des propriétés caractéristiques des vases. Les différentes propriétés de la vase sont reliées à la concentration et à la température par des lois simples utilisant un maximum de trois paramètres, ce qui facilite une modélisation hydrosédimentaire à paramètres multiples.
D'une manière générale, les modèles sont ajustés pour la vase de l'estuaire de la Loire. Cependant, ils sont applicables à d'autres sites, aux valeurs des paramètres près.
Un modèle général de tassement satisfaisant les principes issus de la mécanique de sols est développé; le tassement par sédimentation des suspensions est simulé comme un cas particulier en absence de contraintes effectives.
Un modèle iso-concentration multicouches pour la dynamique verticale des dépôts de vase est formulé. Ce modèle permet de détecter la concentration au-dessus de laquelle la vase s'accumule dans le fond pour former la crème de vase.
Enfin, des essais rhéométriques réalisés sur une vase de l'estuaire de la Loire mettent en évidence l'influence de la température sur sa rigidité initiale, laquelle conditionne l'érosion.
Cette synthèse des différentes modélisations hydrosédimentaires nous a permis la construction d'un modèle numérique unidimensionnel de l'ensemble de l'estuaire de la Loire.
