Abstract:
This doctoral thesis contributes to the ongoing scholarly conversation on literary representation of musical sounds, forms, and compositions. My close examination of the tangible presences of Western art music in the fiction of three contemporary American novelists relocates traditional foci of intermediality and word and music studies from referential precision and structural equivalence across the arts to the problem of readerly experience of music through fictional narrative. Exploring a variety of diegetic encounters with music in William T. Vollmann's Europe Central (2005), William H. Gass's Middle C (2013), and Richard Powers's Orfeo (2014), I draw from cognitive narratology and the philosophy of music, among others, to construct a concise model of musical experience and a system of its literary correlatives, which can provide for the reader's enactive response to music-related themes and means in fiction. I discuss the different strategies the writers apply to communicate the presumably elitist experience of Western classical music as suggestive and relevant to their 21st-century readerships, whether big or small. I order my chapters dialectically, regarding the three authors' literary approaches to musical experience as thesis, antithesis, and synthesis. In Chapter I, Vollmann's intermedial transpositions of Dmitri Shostakovich's fictionalized works are shown to be framed by a mimetic bias, under which diegetic music functions as a characterization means for the author's historical preoccupations. The thesis (i) I infer from Vollmann's approach is that music is part of the fictional reality representative/informative/definitive of what that reality is like. Chapter II is devoted to Gass's metafictional distrust of representation, whereupon his novelistic narrative discards diegetic music almost completely and points out ways of experiencing verbal textures musically. Gass's method is thus antithetical (ii) to Vollmann's: music is a metaphor for creativity, indifferent to the subject matter and/or plot, which at representation level may well be a parodic perversion of the very idea of creativity. Powers's balanced treatment of musicalized content and form and his generous supply of multivalent experiential cues are forged to appeal to a broader reading audience, as I argue in Chapter III. In what I see as a synthesis (iii) of Vollmann and Gass, Powers's storyworld contains abundant diegetic music that constructs narrative settings and drives the events of the plot, but is itself graspable through musical metaphors. The findings of the thesis open new directions for research into musico-literary reception. Encouraging a revival of reader-response awareness in literary analysis, musicalized fiction is an untrivial subject for interactive theoretical scrutiny by psychologists and philosophers of music, transmedial narratologists, and cognitive scientists. Empirical studies of actual readers' experience of musicalized prose may prove particularly promising in further investigation of this intersectional phenomenon.

Abstract:
Beginning in 1954, the United States Army attempted to build a viable armed force in South Vietnam. Until the early 1960s, other areas commanded more American attention, yet this formative period was influential in later United States involvement in Vietnam. This thesis examines United States advisory efforts from 1955 to 1960 by analyzing the tenure of Lieutenant General Samuel T. Williams as Chief of the Military Assistance Advisory Group in South Vietnam. During Williams's tenure, the communist forces in the north began the guerrilla insurgency in earnest. Williams's failure to respond to this change has been justly criticized; yet his actions were reflective of the United States Army's attitude toward insurgencies in the late 1950s.

Abstract:
Many critics resort to explaining readers' experiences of poems like William Blake's Jerusalem and T.S. Eliot's Four Quartets in terms of "spirituality" or "religion". These experiences are broadly defined in this thesis as jouissance (after Roland Barthes' essay The Pleasure of the Text) or "experience qua experience". Critical attempts at the reduction of jouissance into abstract constructs serve merely as stopgap measures by which critics might avoid having to account for the limits of their own rational discourse. These poems, in particular, are deliberately structured to preserve the reader's experience of the poem from reduction to any particular meta-discursive construct, including "the spiritual". Through a broad application of Rezeption-Asthetik principles, this thesis demonstrates how the poems are structured to direct readers' faculties to engage with the hypothetical realm within which jouissance occurs, beyond the rationally abstractable. T.S. Eliot's poetic oeuvre appears to chart his growing confidence in non-rational, pre-critical faculties. Through "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock", The Waste Land, and Four Quartets, Eliot's poetry becomes gradually less prescriptive of the terms to which the experience of his poetry might be reduced. In Four Quartets he finally entrusts readers with a great deal of responsibility for "co-creating" the poem's significance. Like T.S . Eliot, although more consistently throughout his oeuvre, William Blake is similarly concerned with the validation of the reader's subjective interpretative/creative faculties. Blake's Jerusalem is carefully structured on various intertwined levels to rouse and exercise in the reader what the poet calls the "All Glorious Imagination" (Keynes 1972: 679). The jouissance of Jerusalem or Four Quartets is located in the reader's efforts to co-create the significance of the poems. It is only during a direct engagement with this process, rather than in subsequent attempts to abstract it, that the "experience qua experience" may be understood.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis essays a comparative study of William Plomer's Turbott Wolfe (1925) and Sol Plaatje's Mhudi (1930). Although writing from very different subject positions within the social order of the time, Plomer and Plaatje embody in their novels a strikingly similar vision of a South Africa free of racial barriers. Plaatje's version of South African history in Mhudi deconstructs colonial binarism by dramatizing not only conflict and difference but also co-operation and commonality. Holding the past up as a mirror to the present, it protests against racial injustice while implying the continuing possibility of reconciliation. Plomer reacts angrily to white hypocrisy and insists on the rights and humanity of his African characters, in the name of imperatives both moral and political. He seeks additional sanction for these by situating the South African race questioning the context of a Western world slowly awakening to the consequences of modernity. During a time of political turbulence, both writers speak out boldly and confidently against the rising dominance of segregationist ideology. The imminent inception of full democracy in South Africa has reanimated the relevance of these writers' vision of a non- racial social order. If one of the challenges facing the South African literary historian 'today is the reconstruction of a truly national literary tradition, then Mhudi and Turbott Wolfe would appear to be key works in such an enterprise. As different as Plaatje's epic myth-making is from Plomer's modernist irony, both novels contrive to speak with a new voice: a national voice which expresses the aspirations of all South Africa's people. They are, moreover, novels whose survival seems guaranteed as much by their aesthetic qualities as by their ideological orientation. The novels are examined against the backgrounds of South African society and colonial literary production. They are seen as milestones in the development of a liberal South African literary tradition. By breaking with the dominant oppositional mode, whether that of "white writing" or an emergent "writing black", Plomer and Plaatje exemplify a literature at once socially relevant and possessed of a prophetic vision that remains of significance in South Africa today.

Abstract:
This project focuses on the prosody of three major poets, William Blake, W. B. Yeats, and T. S. Eliot. It explores the relationship between each poet's poetic sound structures and his spiritual aims. The project argues that in Blake's prophetic poems The Four Zoas, Milton, and Jerusalem, in Yeats's middle and late poetry, and in Eliot's post-conversion poetry, the careful structuring of the non-semantic features of language serves to model a process through which one may arrive at the threshold of a spiritual reality.
The introductory chapter situates these poets' works within the genre of mystical writing; establishes the epistemological nature of poetic sound and its relationship to mystical expression; considers the historical and personal exigencies that influence each poet's prosodic choices; and outlines the prosodic method by which their poetry is scanned. Chapter one addresses William Blake's efforts to re-vision Milton's Christian epic Paradise Lost by means of a logaoedic prosody intended to move the reader from a rational to a spiritual perception of the self and the world. Chapter two considers the development of W.B. Yeats's contrapuntal prosody as integral to his attempt to make of himself a modern poet and to his antithetical mystical philosophy. Chapter three explores the liminal prosody of T. S. Eliot by which he creates an incantatory movement that points to a spiritual reality behind material reality. The project concludes with a consideration of the spiritual aims of Gerard Manley Hopkins and H.D. (Hilda Doolittle) and posits a revaluation of Hopkins' sprung rhythm and H.D.'s revisionary chain of sound as prosodic practices intrinsic to their spiritual aims.
Ce projet porte sur la prosodie de trois poètes importants, William Blake, W. B. Yeats, et T. S. Eliot, et il explore la relation entre les structures poétiques du son et les buts spirituels de chaque poète. L'argumentaire du projet soutient que dans les poèmes prophétiques de Blake, The Four Zoas, Milton, et Jerusalem, dans la poésie du milieu et de la fin de la carrière de Yeats, et dans la poésie après-conversion d'Eliot la structuration attentive des figures non-sémantiques du langage sert à façonner un processus à travers lequel on pourrait arriver au seuil de la réalité spirituelle.
L'introduction sert à situer les oeuvres des trois poètes dans le genre de l'écriture mystique, à établir la nature épistémologique du son poétique et de sa relation à l'expression mystique, à considérer les exigences historiques et personnelles qui ont influencé les choix prosodiques de chaque poète, et à cerner la méthode prosodique selon laquelle on scande leur poésie. Le premier chapitre aborde les efforts de William Blake de revoir l'épopée chrétienne Paradise Lost de Milton selon une prosodie logaédique dont l'intention est de transporter le lecteur d'une perception rationnelle à une perception spirituelle de soi et du monde. Le deuxième chapitre considère le développement de la prosodie en contrepoint de W. B. Yeats comme étant intégral à sa tentative de se construire en tant que poète moderne et à sa philosophie mystique antithétique. Le chapitre trois examine la prosodie liminale de T. S. Eliot avec laquelle il crée un mouvement incantatoire qui indique une réalité spirituelle derrière la réalité matérielle. La conclusion prend en considération les buts spirituels de Gerald Manley Hopkins et H. D. (Hilda Doolittle) afin de postuler une réévaluation du rythme à ressorts d'Hopkins et l'enchaînement révisionnel du son d'H. D. en tant que pratiques prosodiques intrinsèque à leurs buts spirituels.

Full text
Abstract:
Religion is often invoked as a driving force behind violence, disentangled from political, social, and economic reasons. In this thesis, we will be exploring the viewpoints of three prominent religious thinkers in investigating the principal causes behind what is called religious violence. The works of Karen Armstrong, Mark Juergensmeyer, and William T. Cavanaugh are considered as theoretical frameworks for understanding violence in an Islamic context. While Armstrong argues that the root cause of violence can be traced back to economic, political, and cultural reasons, Juergensmeyer contests that religion is the most important cause underlying all violence. In their analyses, both thinkers rely heavily on a distinction between religious and secular violence. Cavanaugh, on the other hand, regards such a distinction as itself a legitimation of secular forms of violence that obscures the real causes of what we call religious violence.

Full text
Abstract:
William Lovell Finley was an American conservationist active in Oregon and California from 1894 to 1947. He was president of the Oregon Audubon Society and a field representative for the National Audubon Society. He also served as Oregon State Game Warden, State Biologist and as a Commissioner on the Oregon State Fish and Game Commission. He wrote for ornithology journals and popular magazines, was an early wildlife field photographer, and made wildlife films. This thesis examines the Finley's career from 1887 to 1911 to demonstrate how Finley, as a self-taught naturalist, forged a professional identity and became part of a social and professional network of conservationists. Using Finley's correspondence and published pieces the thesis presents a detailed account of his photography partnership with Herman T. Bohlman, a Portland plumber and artist, and of Finley's involvement in three ornithology organizations, the Northwest Ornithology Association, the Cooper Ornithological Club, and the National Audubon Society.

Full text
Abstract:
This dissertation will examine the formation of the myth that William T. Sherman laid waste to the state of Georgia in 1864, and almost single-handedly invented the concept of “total war.” It will also examine how Sherman’s reputation has evolved over the years from accusations of being a Southern sympathizer and traitor at the end of the Civil War to the modern image of Sherman as the destroyer of the old South. William Tecumseh Sherman was the most controversial general of the American Civil War. The modern image of Sherman is either a destructive monster who violated the laws of civilized warfare or a strategic genius who invented modern warfare. Both of these images have evolved over the years. In large part, they have been the product of Lost Cause writers trying to reinterpret the history of the war, but also the product of Union generals and politicians attempting to glorify their own place in the history of the war, men with personal grudges against the general and modern historians using Sherman to make their own arguments about contemporary society. The sources used for this dissertation were the journals, letters and memoirs of the participants. The Official Records of both the Union and Confederacy were examined as well as nineteenth and twentieth century newspapers and magazines. This dissertation will show that the modern conception of General Sherman is not the same as the historical fact, but rather a post-war creation. Individuals’ agendas have created and sustained the myth of Sherman to explain defeat in the Civil War, justify later military strategy, condemn later conflicts and for personal gain. It is not enough to know that historical events as commonly understood are inaccurate; it is important to understand how and why these inaccuracies came about.

Abstract:
Les mythologies - gréco-romaine, irlandaise, perse, indienne, japonaise, chinoise -sont omniprésentes dans la poésie de Bunting, Eliot, Pound et Yeats. Les prédilections desauteurs pour certaines mythologies, véritables choix identitaires et politiques, montrenttoutefois une péroccupation commune pour les mythes violents, aux niveaux martial et sexuel.Ce premier niveau thématique se combine avec une réflexion plus distanciée sur le mythe,outil critique qui permet la reformulation de croyances rituelles et spirituelles, et de nouvellesthéories poétiques qui visent à ordonner et donner un sens au monde chaotique du XXe siècle.Le mythe, subversif, permet donc l'articulation de nouvelles spiritualités et denouvelles expériences poétiques. Enfin, matériau vivant et modelable, dont la mention est à lafois un raccourci de récits anciens et un horizon élargi vers d'autres références et réécritures,le mythe est objet linguistique. En traduction, le mythe transfert les contenus thématiques,déplace les rythmes et fait circuler et s'entremêler les arts. En effet, retour fantasmé à uneorigine du langage artistique, le mythe est parfois fiction d'un art total où les figuresmythiques seraient à la fois objet linguistique, représentation imaginaire picturale etmanifestation musicale. De cette vision du mythe émane une poésie polyphonique et hybride,à l'image du centaure et des autres créatures monstrueuses présents dans l'oeuvre poétique deBunting, Eliot, Pound et Yeats.

Anderson, Thomas Lee. "John Bennett Walters, Total War, and the Raid on Randolph, Tennessee." TopSCHOLAR®, 2009. http://digitalcommons.wku.edu/theses/87.

Full text
Abstract:
The regnant interpretation of the American Civil War includes the fact that it evolved into a “total war,” which adumbrated the total wars of the twentieth century. Mark E. Neely, in 1991, published an influential paper calling this interpretation into question for the first time. In the article Neely revealed that the first mention of “total war” in connection with the Civil War was an article written in 1948 by John Bennett Walters about Gen. William T. Sherman and a raid he ordered on Randolph, Tennessee in reprisal for an attempted hijacking of the packet boat Eugene on the Mississippi River. Walters castigates Sherman’s raid as brutal, cruel, and wanton and tries to depict Sherman as a violent and hateful man who set out to punish Southerners for turning their backs on the Union. He—along with modern residents of Tipton County, Tennessee—claim that Sherman burned the whole town to the ground. But a close investigation of the target of Sherman’s attack shows that Randolph, Tennessee had been a ghost town since the mid 1840s with the result that very little actual damage was done. There may have been as many as six dwellings in the area along with dozens of abandoned and derelict buildings. Sherman’s orders to the troops were to let the citizens know that Union officials abhorred this kind of violence but were forced by guerilla activities to burn their homes to discourage continued attacks on river boats. The residents were given sufficient time to remove their belongings before the buildings were set afire. The results of this investigation suggest that the raid on Randolph might be emblematic of much of the purported devastation of the South by Sherman and his armies. Perhaps the “total war” on the South was illusory and has been greatly exaggerated along with the destructiveness of the Civil War. The term “total war” seems never to have been used in the nineteenth century. Total war is a twentieth-century term and is completely bound up with twentieth-century technology, especially with aircraft as weapons of mass destruction. The kind of destruction encompassed by “total war” was unimaginable in Civil War times, especially the deliberate killing of noncombatant civilians. It is argued, then, that the use of the term “total war” to describe the American Civil War is anachronistic and thus entails the projection of twentieth century realities into the past.

Faust, Marjorie Ann Hollomon. "The Great Gatsby and its 1925 Contemporaries." Digital Archive @ GSU, 2008. http://digitalarchive.gsu.edu/english_diss/26.

Full text
Abstract:
ABSTRACT This study focuses on twenty-one particular texts published in 1925 as contemporaries of The Great Gatsby. The manuscript is divided into four categories—The Impressionists, The Experimentalists, The Realists, and The Independents. Among The Impressionists are F. Scott Fitzgerald himself, Willa Cather (The Professor’s House), Sherwood Anderson (Dark Laughter), William Carlos Williams (In the American Grain), Elinor Wylie (The Venetian Glass Nephew), John Dos Passos (Manhattan Transfer), and William Faulkner (New Orleans Sketches). The Experimentalists are Gertrude Stein (The Making of Americans), E. E. Cummings (& aka “Poems 48-96”), Ezra Pound (A Draft of XVI Cantos), T. S. Eliot (“The Hollow Men”), Laura Riding (“Summary for Alastor”), and John Erskine (The Private Life of Helen of Troy). The Realists are Theodore Dreiser (An American Tragedy), Edith Wharton (The Mother’s Recompense), Upton Sinclair (Mammonart), Ellen Glasgow (Barren Ground), Sinclair Lewis (Arrowsmith), James Boyd (Drums), and Ernest Hemingway (In Our Time). The Independents are Archibald MacLeish (The Pot of Earth) and Robert Penn Warren (“To a Face in a Crowd”). Although these twenty-two texts may in some cases represent literary fragmentations, each in its own way also represents a coherent response to the spirit of the times that is in one way or another cognate to The Great Gatsby. The fact that all these works appeared the same year is special because the authors, if not already famous, would become famous, and their works were or would come to represent classic American literature around the world. The twenty-two authors either knew each other personally or knew each other’s works. Naturally, they were also influenced by writings of international authors and philosophers. The greatest common elements among the poets and fiction writers are their uninhibited interest in sex, an absorbing cynicism about life, and the frequent portrayal of disintegration of the family, a trope for what had happened to the countries and to the “family of nations” that experienced the Great War. In 1925, it would seem, Fitzgerald and many of his writing peers—some even considered his betters—channeled a major spirit of the times, and Fitzgerald did it more successfully than almost anyone.

Projeto submetido como requisito parcial para obtenção do grau de Mestre em Segurança e Higiene no Trabalho
O presente trabalho é desenvolvido no âmbito da tese final do mestrado em Higiene e Segurança no Trabalho, da Escola Superior de Tecnologia em parceria com a Escola Superior de Ciências Empresariais e surge no seguimento do projeto final realizado no ano anterior. O projeto foi desenvolvido em ambiente real de trabalho em conjunto com a equipa operadora de uma empresa de manutenção e metalomecânica e o seu principal objetivo é a avaliação de riscos na Caracterização de algumas tarefas de manutenção mais frequentemente realizadas pela empresa. A empresa em estudo trata-se de uma microempresa, apenas com 8 trabalhadores, no entanto insere-se no sector de atividade fundamental em todas as áreas financeira do mundo, pois todos os processos e produtos necessitam de manutenção, seja ela, preventiva ou corretiva. Estudos neste sector são muito importantes, pois uma análise de dados do EUROSTAT sobre os acidentes de trabalho ocorridos na União Europeia entre 2003 e 2005 conclui que entre 15 a 20% de todos os acidentes, mortais e não-mortais, e entre 10 a 15% de todos os acidentes mortais estão relacionados com operações de manutenção. Esta análise situa então, as atividades de manutenção em quarto lugar numa lista dos 10 tipos de trabalho responsáveis pelo maior número de acidentes de trabalho mortais. Sendo desta forma tão importante analisar os possíveis riscos inerentes a estas atividades. Para tal, foram seguidas e estudadas diferentes atividades de manutenção, as mais executadas, com o apoio dos trabalhadores. Para a avaliação destes riscos foi aplicado o Método William T. Fine e o método FMEA. Finalmente foram sugeridas medidas a implementar por forma a minimizar os riscos que não podem ser eliminados.
The project presented here is done in the context of the final thesis of the master’s degree in health and safety at work that takes place at the School of Technology, in partnership with the School of Business, both in Setubal, and it emerges as a follow up of the final project conducted last year. The project took place in a metalworking and maintenance company, along with their multidisciplinary team and the main goal was to identify and assess the different hazards of some maintenance activities executed by the company. Although this is a micro-company, with only eight employees, is inserted in a activity sector that is applied to each and every financial areas of the world, due to the fact that everything needs maintenance, either preventive or corrective. Additionally, a various number of studies, specifically, a EUROSTAT study about work environment accidents, complies that a great number of accidents, lethal or non-lethal are directly related with maintenance activities. Therefore, these studies place the maintenance activities in 4th at a list of 10 type of works with the higher lethal accidents rate. Therefore, is so important to analyze all the possible risks of all these activities. For that purpose, some maintenance activities were followed and studied with the help of the employees. To evaluate this risks the methods William T. Fine and FMEA were executed. Finally, some measures where suggested in order to reduce the risks which could not be eliminated.

Abstract:
It is the aim of this dissertation to discuss the creation of historiographic space in the works of Francis Parkman. More specifically, this dissertation intends to analyze Parkman’s The Oregon Trail and Montcalm and Wolfe as literary texts that examine geographies of cultural interaction and transnational empire building. Parkman’s historical narratives, this dissertation suggests, not only describe historically significant sites, such as the Oregon Trail and the Northern Frontier, but further create literary heterotopias. These textual counter geographies, as for instance his conceptualizations of the trading posts of the far West and the wilderness fortifications of the far North, allow Parkman to effectively interrogate American history. By investigating the fruitful juncture between history, geography, and literature this project aims to establish the importance of historical geographies for Francis Parkman’s methodology and define its function for the creation of a national consciousness. In addition to Parkman’s use of space, this dissertation further analyzes the historian’s depiction of historical characters and his subsequent attempts to define American identity. Thereby, my analysis specifically highlights the relationship between Parkman’s literary characters and their environment. In an attempt to trace the impact Parkman’s historical narratives exert on postmodern authors of American literature, the concluding chapters interrogate the re-negotiation of Parkman’s historiographic spaces in Thomas King’s Truth and Bright Water and William T. Vollmann’s Fathers and Crows.

Abstract:
The dissertation investigates the correlations among the development of general anthologies of Canadian literature, the Canadian canon, and visions of national identity. While literature anthologies are widely used in university classrooms, the influential role of the anthology in the critical study of literature has been largely overlooked, particularly in Canada. The dissertation begins with an analysis of the stages of development of general anthologies of Canadian literature, demonstrating that there are important links between dominant critical trends and the guiding interests of the various phases of anthology development and that anthologies both reflect and participate in moulding views of the nation and its literature. Focusing then upon five eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Canadian authors, the dissertation traces their treatment in anthologies and analyzes in detail the impact of stages of anthology development upon authors’ inclusion and presentation. The reception of Frances Brooke, John Richardson, William Kirby, Susanna Moodie, and Emily Pauline Johnson over a span of nearly 90 years is examined, and points of inclusion and exclusion are scrutinized to determine links with prevailing critical interests as well as canonical status. These case studies reveal the functions of anthologies, which include recovering overlooked authors, amending past oversights, reflecting new areas of critical inquiry, and preserving the national literary tradition. Their treatment also reveals the effect of larger critical concerns, such as alignment with dominant visions of the nation, considerations of genre, and reassessments of past views. The dissertation shows that the anthology is a carefully constructed, culturally valuable work that plays an important role in literary criticism and canon formation and is a genre worthy of careful scrutiny.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis is a critical analysis of the theology and ethics of dispensationalist Christian Zionism in America. Chapter One introduces the thesis and its method, which draws constructively from history, sociology, and anthropology while remaining substantively theological. Chapter Two describes dispensationalism's origins in nineteenth-century Britain and its dissemination and development in America. Chapter Three moves from broad, historical description to the contemporary and particular through an introduction to Faith Bible Chapel (FBC), an American Christian Zionist congregation. This description arises from an academic term spent at FBC observing congregational life and conducting extensive interviews, as well as fieldwork undertaken in FBC's "adopted settlement" in the West Bank, including interviews with Israeli settlers about partnerships with American Christians. The remaining chapters move to more explicitly doctrinal analysis. Chapters Four through Six are shaped by William Cavanaugh's concept of 'theopolitics' (Theopolitical Imagination, 2002): a disciplined, community-gathering common imagination of time and space. Through the exploration of a key historical text (The Scofield Reference Bible, 1917) and its continuing legacies in the life and thought of FBC, these chapters examine the theopolitics of dispensationalist Christian Zionism, demonstrating that it is a complex system of convictions and practices in which the disciplines of biblicism and biblical literalism form an eschatology which subordinates ecclesiology and Christology, nurturing an imagination of the roles of Christ and the church in time and space which sever social ethics from necessary Christological and ecclesiological sources. John Howard Yoder's work is used to bring this system into relief, and to establish that eschatology per se is not inimical to Christian social ethics. Chapter Seven concludes the thesis with a summary of its findings, as well as a discussion of the positive functions of apocalyptic in Christian social ethics, pointing toward the possibility of alternative ecclesial enactments of apocalyptic theopolitics.

Trabalho de Projeto submetido como requisito parcial para obtenção do grau de Mestre em Segurança e Higiene no Trabalho
O presente trabalho foi desenvolvido no âmbito do Trabalho de Projeto do Mestrado de Higiene e Segurança no Trabalho da Escola Superior de Ciências Empresariais em parceria com a Escola Superior de Tecnologia de Setúbal, ambas do Instituto Politécnico de Setúbal e surgiu no seguimento do projeto individual em contexto real de trabalho. A questão de partida deste trabalho foi: “Será que a classificação do risco obtida para cada risco é idêntica recorrendo a dois diferentes métodos de avaliação e que se altera substancialmente com a implementação de medidas?”. Por forma a conseguir dar-lhe resposta definiu-se como objetivo geral: “avaliar se a classificação do risco obtida para cada risco se revela idêntica, utilizando dois métodos de avaliação de risco diferentes e se se mantém após a implementação de medidas”. Como objetivos específicos: realizar a avaliação de riscos após implementação de medidas de prevenção (sugeridas no seguimento da avaliação inicial realizada no intuito do trabalho anterior) das instalações fabris da empresa recorrendo ao método de William Fine, realizar uma avaliação de riscos recorrendo ao método MARAT, tendo em conta a situação atual da empresa, onde, tal como anteriormente referido, já se encontram implementadas algumas das medidas sugeridas previamente, comparar as avaliações realizadas antes e após a implementação das medidas de forma a verificar quais os riscos minimizados/eliminados (referente ao método William T. Fine), comparar os riscos identificados por cada método (William T. Fine e MARAT) ao nível da sua classificação e identificar principais vantagens, desvantagens e dificuldades de aplicação de cada um dos métodos utilizados. A empresa contactada para a realização do presente trabalho foi a ANTÓNIO ALEXANDRE, Génios Favoritos – Testes Hidráulicos Unipessoal, Lda., empresa que tem a realização de testes de pressão hidráulicos como a sua principal atividade. Nos primeiros capítulos é feito um enquadramento geral desta temática e nos que se seguem é apresentada a metodologia, o caso de estudo e são aplicadas as metodologias definidas. Seguem-se as conclusões, propostas de melhoria, bibliografia e apêndices. Este projeto revelou-se bastante útil, na medida em que permitiu desenvolver duas avaliações de riscos do mesmo local recorrendo a métodos diferentes, tornando possível verificar quais as diferenças existentes entre si e entre as suas conclusões e possibilitou um melhor conhecimento do tema e da aplicação deste tipo de métodos.
This work was developed in the scope of the Project of the Master of Hygiene and Safety in the Work of the Higher School of Business Sciences in partnership with the Setúbal’s School of Technology, both from the Setubal’s Polytechnic Institute, and came following the individual Project in context of work. The starting point for this paper was: "Is the risk classification obtained for each risk identical using two different assessment methods and which substantially changes with the implementation of measures?". In order to be able to answer it, it was defined as a general objective: "to assess whether the risk classification obtained for each risk is identical using two different risk assessment methods and if it is maintained after the implementation of measures". As specific objectives: carry out the risk assessment after implementing preventive measures (suggested following the initial assessment carried out for the previous work) of the company's manufacturing facilities using the William Fine method, carry out a risk assessment using the MARAT method, taking into account the current situation of the company, where, as mentioned previously, some of the previously suggested measures are already implemented, comparing the evaluations carried out before and after the implementation of the measures in order to verify the minimized / eliminated risks to the William T. Fine method), to compare the risks identified by each method (William T. Fine and MARAT) at the level of its classification and to identify the main advantages, disadvantages and difficulties of applying each of the methods used. The company contacted to carry out the present work was ANTÓNIO ALEXANDRE, Génios Favoritos - Testes Hidráulicos Unipessoal, Lda., Company that has the performance of hydraulic pressure tests as its main activity. In the first chapters, a general framework of this theme is made and in the following the methodology is presented, the study case and the defined methodologies are applied. The following are the conclusions, proposals for improvement, bibliography and appendixes. This project proved to be very useful in the way it allowed the development of two risk assessments of the same site using different methods, making it possible to verify the differences between them and between their conclusions. It enabled a better knowledge of the subject and the application of this type of methods.

Abstract:

Mitt syfte har varit att skaffa mig grundläggande kunskap om vad mystik är och vad som kännetecknar mystik erfarenhet. Jag har undersökt mystika riktningar inom hinduismen, judendomen, buddhismen, kristendomen och islam. Tekniker och livshållningar som kan leda till mystika erfarenheter har jag också tittat närmare på. Min frågeställning har varit: Vad har den kristna mystiken att erbjuda nutidsmänniskan? Utifrån min frågeställning så har jag fördjupat mig inom den kristna mystiken. Som metod har jag använt mig av litteraturstudier och två stycken intervjuer. Jag har gjort jämförande studier av den information som jag erhållit genom böckerna och intervjuerna. Vid intervjuerna ställde jag öppna intervjufrågor. Jag har sökt efter det som är väsentligt inom mystiken, inte bara i vår tid utan även från tidigare generationers mystik. Genom att använda mig av material från olika tider och från många källor tror jag att det ska gå att få fram det som är mystikens gemensamma arv, då med fördjupning inom kristen mystik. Det jag har kommit fram till i min uppsats är att den kristna mystiken har något att ge nutidsmänniskan. I den stillhet som mystikern har som bas för ett möte med sitt eget inre och ett möte med Gud uppfylls flera grundläggande behov: Tid till vila och eftertanke, en träning i att leva i nuet, en träning i koncentration och en möjlighet till att lära känna sig själv. Nästa steg är att släppa kontrollen över sitt liv och genom tillit till Gud låta hans kärlek få göra en människa hel. Gud formar människan efter sitt eget sätt att vara. Och Guds sätt att vara är kärlek och relation. I Guds närhet blir människan mer kärleksfull och gemenskapssökande. Jag har också funnit att det finns mycket som liknar varandra i de olika religionernas mystik. Inte bara tekniker utan också inre skeenden i människan. Behovet att få ett personligt möte med det transcendenta är lika. Jagets begränsningar minskar och en osjälvisk kärlek växer fram. Människans sammansmältning eller uppgående i det transcendenta är kanske mer lika än vad de olika religiösa språkens möjligheter tillåter. Kärleken är i alla mystika riktningar viktig. Utan att ge avkall på sin egen religions särprägel är det viktigt att i respekt för andras religionsutövning fråga efter den djupare betydelse som finns bakom olika religiösa uttryckssätt.
