Resumen
Cette thèse entend analyser la figure de l’androgyne du mouvement symboliste à l’avant-garde abstraite. La relecture de la modernité au passage du XXe siècle en France permet de comprendre de quelle manière le symbolisme a exploré le trouble de la sexualité dans un contexte sociopolitique de crise de la masculinité. L’étude visuelle et anthropologique des normes sexuelles révèle une angoisse de l’entre-deux androgyne, associée aux théories psychopathologiques de l’homosexualité. Cette thèse démontre de quelle manière l’androgynie correspond à ce que nous intitulons « le troisième genre » artistique, défini par le rejet des assignations de genre et par de nouveaux modèles de représentation et d’intersubjectivité, issus de l’immersion du féminin dans le masculin. Dans la première partie, l’étude des sources néo-classiques et spirituelles de l’androgyne révèle la recherche d’un idéal politique et artistique permettant la régénération de l’unité des sexes. La deuxième partie envisage la résurgence de cet idéal dans les pratiques symbolistes fin-de-siècle, à travers différents modèles androgynes comme la figure de l’ange, celles d’Orphée et du troisième sexe primitif. Face au trouble des identités sexuelles, la réception de l’idéalisme est analysée à partir de la rhétorique de la dégénérescence associant androgynie, efféminement du masculin et homosexualité. La quatrième partie examine la poursuite de l’idéal androgyne dans les sources de l’abstraction. Le troisième genre abstrait alimente l’utopie avant-gardiste d’un art qui s’auto-génère, dépourvu de caractère sexué et créé par un artiste moderne, célibataire et androgyne
This thesis aims to analyze the figure of androgyny from the movements of Symbolism to the abstract avant-garde. This reinterpretation of modernity at the turn of the 20th century in France allows an understanding of how Symbolism explored the trouble of sexuality within a social and political context entrenched by the crisis of masculinity. The visual and anthropological study of sexual norms reveals a fear of the androgynous in-between associated with psychopathological theories of homosexuality. This thesis demonstrates how androgyny is tied to what I call the artistic “third gender,” defined by the refusal of gender assignation and new models of representation and intersubjectivity, following the feminine immersion within the masculine. In the first part, the study of the Neoclassical and spiritual sources of androgyny demonstrates the search for the political and artistic ideal, allowing for the regeneration of the unity of sex. The second part reveals the resurgence of this ideal in the fin-de-siècle Symbolist's practices through different androgynous models such as the figure of the angel, the ones of Orpheus and the primitive third sex. Toward the trouble of sexual identities, the reception of idealism is analyzed through the rhetoric of degeneration associating androgyny, masculine effeminacy and homosexuality. The last part examines the pursuit of the androgynous ideal in the sources of abstraction. The abstract third sex nourishes the avant-gardist utopia of an art that is self-perpetuating, devoid of sexual characteristic and led by a modern artist, single and androgynous

PROGRAMA DE SUPORTE À PÓS-GRADUAÇÃO DE INSTS. DE ENSINO
Este trabalho examina a correspondência entre Guimarães Rosa e seus tradutores alemão, italiano e norte-americana, com vistas à depreensão e análise de perspectivas rosianas sobre o simbolismo sonoro. Examinam-se as reflexões sobre o tema que se podem depreender (a) das considerações gerais que Rosa faz no corpo das cartas enviadas a seus tradutores; e (b) das detalhadas instruções que ele acrescenta em anexos, para dirimir dúvidas específicas colocadas pelos tradutores. Mostra-se, pela análise das epístolas, que a criação linguística rosiana tende a abarcar de forma deliberada e até certo ponto calculada a sonoridade sugestiva, por meio de singulares onomatopeias, aliterações, assonâncias e padrões rítmicos, resultando em um simbolismo sonoro. Conferindo carga expressiva, força e plasticidade ao texto, o simbolismo sonoro é um importante aliado nas estratégias rosianas de privar o leitor da bengala dos lugares comuns (carta a Harriet de Onis) e de convidá-lo a ter com a língua uma relação que não seja unicamente lógico-reflexiva (Carta a Edoardo Bizzarri). Mostra-se ainda que, no que tange às formas como dialogam com as teorias linguísticas, as reflexões e atitudes tradutórias de Rosa, tendendo à recusa do princípio da arbitrariedade do signo, apresentam convergências parciais com discursos teóricos que sustentam o simbolismo sonoro, em especial os de Jespersen e Jakobson.
This work examines the letters exchanged between Guimarães Rosa and his German, Italian and American translators,aiming to apprehend and analyse Rosa s perspectives on sound symbolism. It examines the reflections on the theme that can be inferred from (a) the general considerations that Rosa elaborates in the body of the letters sent to his translators, and (b) the detailed instructions he adds in attachments to resolve specific questions posed by them. It is shown, by analysis of the epistles, that Rosa’s linguistic creation tends to encompass suggestive sonority in a deliberate and somewhat calculated manner, by means of singular onomatopoeias, alliterations, assonances and rhythmic patterns, resulting in a sound symbolism. Charging the texts with expressiveness, strength and plasticity, sound symbolism is an important ingredient in Rosa s strategy to deprive the reader of the walking stick of common place (letter to Harriet de Onis) and to invite him to engage in a relationship with language that might go over the strictly logical-reflexive plane (letter to Edoardo Bizzarri). The study shows, moreover, that Rosa’s reflections and attitudes as a translator can be related to linguistic theories that tend to refuse the principle of the arbitrariness of the sign, also showing partial convergences with theoretical discourses that defend sound symbolism, especially those of Jespersen and Jakobson.

Texto completo
Resumen
La présente thèse porte sur les relations entre littérature et courants ésotériques, à travers l’étude du symbole de la rose dans la littérature européenne, plus particulièrement dans les littératures française et anglaise des XIXe et XXe siècles. Il s’agit d’une recherche caractérisée par une approche transversale et interdisciplinaire, qui fait dialoguer différents domaines d’étude, le littéraire et l’historique, ainsi que plusieurs littératures et auteurs appartenant à différentes époques. La dimension initiatique de la rose, couplée avec le topos de l’amour, est au fondement de notre travail de recherche, dont le point de départ est un ouvrage oublié du XIXe siècle : Il Mistero dell’Amor Platonico nel Medioevo de Gabriele Rossetti, père du peintre et poète préraphaélite Dante Gabriele Rossetti. Dans cet ouvrage, Gabriele Rossetti montrait pour la première fois la dimension ésotérique de l’œuvre de Dante et des Fidèles d’Amour, à savoir les poètes d’amour italiens du Moyen Âge, qui véhiculaient, à travers leurs compositions poétiques, des idées mystiques et initiatiques, ainsi que religieuses et politiques. Selon Rossetti le courant critique qu’il inaugura, cette doctrine de l’amour ésotérique était également présente chez les poètes d’amour des différents pays européens, tels que les troubadours et les trouvères français, les poètes d’amour anglais, les minnesingers allemands ou les scaldes scandinaves, et elle se transmettra au cours des siècles, jusqu’au XIXe siècle. Ce dernier aspect est au centre de notre recherche : la transmission de cette présumée connaissance ésotérique, sous forme d’amour, dans l’âge moderne. Dans son Mistero dell’Amor Platonico, Gabriele Rossetti souligne que le symbole le plus important pour comprendre la doctrine ésotérique de l’amour est la rose, et notre travail est centré sur le symbolisme de la rose. L’étude de la dimension initiatique de la rose dans la littérature comporte deux discours rattachés au concept d’initiation : un discours relatif au mysticisme et un discours sur les Ordres initiatiques. Dans le premier cas, l’initiation est liée à une dimension mystique impliquant une transformation ontologique de l’être ; dans le second cas, le symbolisme de la rose se réfère aux Ordres ésotériques et initiatiques qui, d’une manière plus ou moins directe, ont joué un rôle dans l’histoire des idées. Ces deux discours sont souvent liés entre eux, et se retrouvent dans la littérature européenne, en particulier chez Gérard de Nerval ou William Butler Yeats. La première partie de notre thèse est consacrée à Dante, aux poètes du Moyen Âge et aux auteurs de la Renaissance. Nous nous concentrons ensuite sur les auteurs des XIXe et XXe siècles, tels que Honoré de Balzac, Gérard de Nerval, Joséphin Péladan, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Ezra Pound, William Butler Yeats ou Umberto Eco. La majorité des écrivains et des poètes qui font l’objet de notre thèse sont directement ou indirectement liés à Dante et à la poésie d’amour du Moyen Âge, aux Fidèles d’Amour, et même à Gabriele Rossetti. Notre thèse propose de repenser une littérature dans laquelle la culture et la pensée ésotériques ne jouent pas un rôle secondaire, mais fondamental. Maintes œuvres littéraires de toute époque sont imprégnées d’éléments et de motifs renvoyant à la tradition ésotérique. L’étude de la dimension ésotérique et initiatique du symbole de la rose conduit donc à explorer un horizon de recherche dans lequel la littérature est étroitement liée aux courants ésotériques, notamment les littératures française et anglaise, et plus généralement la littérature européenne des XIXe et XXe siècles. Ainsi, de la rose des Fidèles d’Amour du Moyen Âge à la Rose secrète de William Butler Yeats qui affirmait que « ni homme ni femme depuis le commencement du monde n’a jamais su ce qu’est l’amour »
This thesis focuses on the relationship between literature and esoteric currents, through the study of the symbol of the rose in European literature, more specifically in French and English literature of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. This research is based on a transversal and interdisciplinary approach, bringing together different fields of literary and historical study, as well as a variety of literatures and authors from different periods. The initiatory dimension of the rose, coupled with the topos of love, is the basis of my research, whose starting point is a forgotten work from the nineteenth century: Il Mistero dell'Amor Platonico nel Medioevo by Gabriele Rossetti, father of the Pre-Raphaelite painter and poet Dante Gabriele Rossetti. In this work, for the first time Gabriele Rossetti revealed the esoteric dimension of the work of Dante and the Fedeli d’Amore (Faithful of Love) – the Italian love poets of the Middle Ages who, through their poetic compositions, conveyed mystical and initiatory ideas, as well as religious and political ones. According to Rossetti and the critical movement he initiated, this doctrine of esoteric love was also present in the love poets in a number of European contexts, such as the French troubadours and trouvères, the English minstrels, the German Minnesänger and the Scandinavian scaldes, handed down through the centuries until the nineteenth century. This aspect is the focus of my research: transmission of this alleged esoteric knowledge, in the form of love, to later centuries. In his Mistero dell’Amor Platonico, Gabriele Rossetti pointed out that the most important symbol for understanding the esoteric doctrine of love is the rose, and this thesis is devoted to the symbolism of this flower. The study of the initiatory dimension of the rose in literature involves two themes linked to the concept of initiation: one concerns mysticism and the other, initiatory Orders. In the first case, initiation is linked to a mystical dimension involving an ontological transformation of the being, while in the second, the symbolism of the rose refers to esoteric and initiatory Orders which have more or less directly played an important part in the history of ideas. These two themes are often connected and can be found in European writers such as Gérard de Nerval and William Butler Yeats. The first part of this thesis is devoted to Dante and the poets of the Middle Ages, as well as to authors of the Renaissance. I then move on to nineteenth and twentieth century authors, such as Honoré de Balzac, Gérard de Nerval, Joséphin Péladan, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Ezra Pound, William Butler Yeats and Umberto Eco. Most of the writers and poets featured in this thesis are directly or indirectly linked to Dante and the love poetry of the Middle Ages, to the Fedeli d’Amore, and even to Gabriele Rossetti. Thus, this research proposes a rethinking of literature – one in which esoteric culture and thought are of particular importance, as many literary works throughout history are imbued with elements and motifs referring to the esoteric tradition. The study of the esoteric and initiatory dimension of the rose symbol provides the opportunity to explore a field of research where literature is closely linked to esoteric currents, particularly in French and English literature (and more generally, in European literature) of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries: from the rose of the Fedeli d’Amore in the Middle Ages to the Secret Rose by William Butler Yeats, who affirmed that “no man or woman from the beginning of the world has ever known what love is”

Resumen
Bibliography: pages 180-207.
Gender studies in various disciplines, particularly anthropology, have shown that the opposition of masculine : feminine is commonly used to structure other cultural contrasts, and that the representation of this opposition in cultural products is in turn implicated in the cultural construction of gender content. This bidirectional problematic, supplementing the more limited critique of gender 'bias' and masculinist models, is the focus of this research into archaeological materials. Rock art is the principal archaeological 'trace' analysed. Because the impetus to gender studies comes principally from the critical standpoint of feminism, analyses of gender and gendering in archaeological materials are evaluated in the context of gender issues in the present day, in terms of archaeological 'reconstructions' as legitimising the existing gender order. Theoretical influences include feminism, hermeneutics, marxism, (post)- structuralism, semiotics, and discourse theory. Aspects of language, and, particularly, the oral narratives of various San groups - the /Xam, G /wi, !Kung, Nharo, and others - are examined in order to establish the way in which masculinity and femininity are/have been conceptualised and differentiated by San peoples. This is followed by an assessment of the manner of and extent to which the masculine: feminine opposition informs narrative content and structure. The analysis of language texts permits an approach to the representation of this opposition in non-language cultural texts (such as visual art, space). Particular constructions of masculinity and femininity, and a number of gendered contrasts (pertaining to form, orientation, time, number, quality) are identified. Gender symbolism is linked to the themes of rain and fertility/ continuity, and analysed in political terms, according to the feminist materialist contention that, in non-class societies, gender opposition is potentially the impetus to social change. Gender(ing) is more fundamental to San cultural texts than has been, recognised, being present in a range of beliefs which are linked by their gender symbolism. I utilise a 'fertility hypothesis', derived from a reading of the ethnographies, in order to explain various elements of Southern African rock art, Well-preserved (thus relatively recent) paintings, principally from sites in the Drakensberg and south-western Cape, were selected. Features interpreted via this hypothesis include: images of humans, the motif of the thin red line fringed with white dots, 'elephants in boxes', therianthropic figures, and 'androgynous' figures, including the eland. The spatial organisation of the art, the significance of non-realistic perspectives, and the problem of the numerical male dominance of the art are also interpreted from this standpoint. The analysis permits critique, of the theorisation of gender and ideology in rock art studies, and of the biophysical determinism implicit in current rock art studies, in which attempts are made to explain many features of the art by reference to trance states, altered consciousness and neurophysiological constitution. Rain, rather than trance, is proposed as the central element of San ritual/religious practices. Finally, the treatment of (or failure to consider) gender(ing) in the archaeological record is situated in relatio.n to contemporary gender ideologies, in the contexts of archaeological theory and practice.

Brown, Patricia. "The role and symbolism of the dragon in vernacular saints' legends, 1200-1500". Thesis, University of Birmingham, 1998. http://etheses.bham.ac.uk//id/eprint/5414/.

Texto completo
Resumen
This thesis looks at the role and function of the dragon in the saint's encounter with the monster in hagiographic texts, written primarily in the vernacular, between 1200 and 1500. Those connotations accrued by the dragon which are relevant to this thesis are traced from their earliest beginnings. Although by the middle ages the multi-valency of the dragon is reduced to one primary symbolic valency, that of evil and significantly, the evil of paganism, the dragon never loses completely its ancient associations and they help to colour its function within the narrative. The symbolic use of the dragon in vernacular saints' lives is generally consistent, although allowing for different didactic emphases. However, the two legends on which this thesis concentrates are those of St George from Caxton's Golden Legend and St Margaret from the Katherine Group. Each reveals tensions within the text when the dragon's role departs from the familiar hagiographic topos. Firstly, the role of the hagiographic dragon is identified by a comparison with that of the dragon in romance. Allowing for cross-fertilization, this thesis focuses on the significance of the hero's dragon-fight and the saint's dragon encounter to differentiate between the ethos of the romance and hagiographic genres respectively. Tensions are created in the hagiographic text when the romance topos of the dragon-fight is used in conjunction with the hagiographic dragon encounter, as in the legend of St George. Finally, in the legend of St Margaret, the dragon's appearance unbalances and unsettles the perspective of the narrative when its role and function are deployed in the promulgation of virginity.

Texto completo
Resumen
Ce travail repose sur une méthode intégratrice et interdisciplinaire. En effet, la sémiotique qui aspire à une forme de scientificité s'apparente à une linguistique du discours littéraire. Qui plus est, elle met l'accent sur les universaux du discours, à savoir les unités de signification supérieures à la phrase. La sémiotique fait consister le sens. Cette approche essentialiste et constructiviste contribue à mieux valoriser les problèmes immanents à l'œuvre. Dans une perspective fictionnelle, notre étude consiste à faire de L'aventure ambiguë et du Nom de la rose un objet verbal à fonction esthétique. D'un mot, la littérature du déchiffrement permet d'identifier avec efficacité le réel (ce qui se démontre et ne se voit pas) et la réalité (ce qui se voit et ne se démontre pas). La littérature devient dès lors un système de signes dont les éléments concourent à une unité de signification. Ainsi, la difficulté de connexion mutuelle entre les signes caractérise notre réflexion. La structure prime sur les autres modes d'expression. L'étude fine des processus de sens fait du texte une pratique signifiante et non un pur produit esthétique. De ce point de vue, l'œuvre s'avère réussie si la communication rate. Elle échoue si la communication réussit.

Resumen
Advertisers use sexual imagery to attract attention to their messages and to demonstrate the "outcomes" of buying and using the brand. In addition to receiving information about a product, we subconsciously process the entire advertisement. Vicarious learning emphasizes that individuals not only learn from their own experiences but also from observing others. However, vicarious learning also influences the judgment and values of an individual. This study focuses on the portrayal of gender dominance in such advertisements. The magazines chosen for the study are three predominantly female magazines and three predominantly male magazines. Six issues from each magazine were sampled and only advertisements that fit the criteria of the study were utilized. A total of 202 advertisements displaying 244 male and female interactions were coded. The results of the content analysis indicated that advertisements featuring male and female actors interacting portrayed the female actor in the dominant role more often than the male actor. Females were found to be the dominant actors in most predominantly women’s magazines; however, males were displayed as the dominant actors in most predominantly men’s magazines. The findings from this study support the importance and significance of social learning and modeling. Based on the results of this study, the dominant and submissive cues displayed in advertisements provide learning behaviors for consumers.

Texto completo
Resumen
This thesis relates the aspirations (examined in political treatises, literary programs and scientific treaties) of Pope Urban VIIIth with the allegorical spaciality of the architecture of Francesco Borromini. The projects initiated under the patronage of the Pope are particularly related to the Pope's election. Urban's personal impressa, the Angelic Sun is an emblem of this election, a reborn sun, a second personal birth and the elevation of the Angelic Pope (the leader of the age of the Holy Spirit). This is allegorically a metamorphosis like the re-birth of Daphne into Laurel; the Tree of Aeneas and Rome and the principal Barberini impressa. As a dynastic emblem the Laurel unites the cosmic territories of the sun and the moon, the traditional emblems of cosmic kingship and world domination. The metaphysical marriage to Rome (coronation and marriage are ritually linked, like the union of the sun and the moon) metaphorically appropriates the capacity of giving birth through construction, to a new city, an intellectual city in the image of Urban, the threshold for spirit. The architecture 'contains' this intellectual body (city), a dynastic emblem of the Angelic Pope.

Resumen
The corporate form that developed in the early 20th century created enormous pressure for corporate governance mechanisms to curb the power of corporate managers. Berle and Means, legal pluralists, warned about concentrating economic power in the hands of a small but powerful class of professional managers. They claimed this "new form of absolutism" required governmental oversight and viewed boards of directors as part of management, rather than monitors for shareholders. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) proposed that corporations establish a special board committee, made up of "nonofficer members" in response to the McKesson & Robbins scandal of the late 1930s. My dissertation examines the evolution of the U.S. corporate audit committee through three specific time periods: (1) 1920-1954; (2) 1955-1986; and (3) 1987 to the passage of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. My purpose is to determine if evolution of the audit committee throughout these periods has been a reform continually couched in symbolism or whether the audit committee concept has evolved into real reform, allowing proper corporate governance and mitigation of unchecked corporate power. My analysis is a traditional empirical analysis, relying on both primary and secondary sources to develop a coherent ordering of facts. I use narrative in a narrow sense as my historical methodology, examining patterns that emerge and interpreting facts to develop a clear understanding of demands for and uses of audit committees. I use a holistic approach in studying the data, using narrative to show how these patterns ensue from the historical data.

GIRARD, SAUZEAU ANNE-MARIE. "Rose macaulay, romanciere". Angers, 1987. http://www.theses.fr/1988ANGE0007.

Texto completo
Resumen
L'introduction et la premiere partie presentent rose macaulay et son oeuvre. Un resume biographique rappelle ses antecedents familiaux et les episodes les plus marquants de sa vie (1881-1958), notamment son enfance en italie, ses etudes universitaires a oxford, sa rencontre avec gerald o'donovan, ses multiples voyages, enfin la serenite de ses dernieres annees, illuminees par la vigueur de sa foi retrouvee. Sont ensuite etudiees l'evolution de sa carriere litteraire et de sa reputation, ainsi que sa conception du genre romanesque et la genese de ses oeuvres. La deuxieme partie analyse les differentes facettes de l'oeuvre : romans d'une intellectuelle qui a le culte du savoir et dont l'erudition apparait a chaque page; romans d'une journaliste qui nous offre une riche chronique de la vie politique, sociale, religieuse dans la premiere moitie du vingtieme siecle; romans d'une historienne amoureuse du passe; romans d'une moraliste, tolerante et anti-conformiste. Dans la troisieme partie sont evoques les grands axes thematiques : le voyage, la femme, la religion. Voyageuse infatigable, elle ne reve que de pays lointains, mediterraneens ou exotiques; feministe moderee, elle nous revele, en defendant les droits de ses soeurs, l'idee qu'elle se fait de la femme; championne de l'anglicanisme, elle manifeste, malgre une longue periode d'agnosticisme, un interet constant pour la religion. La derniere partie est consacree a l'art de la romanciere : si sa technique reste traditionnelle, ses personnages sont remarquables de verite et de vie. Son ironie sarcastique, son ecriture tres personnelle, son recours frequent a l'image et au symbole, conferent a ses romans une indeniable originalite. Enfin, la conclusion tente de mettre en lumiere la complexite de cette personnalite secrete et attachante, et d'evaluer les merites de l'oeuvre romanesque
This study examines the 23 works of fiction published by rose macaulay in the first half of the twentieth century. As her writing had many close connections with her life, a biographical sketch can remind the reader of the most significant episodes of her life (1881-1958), especially her childhood in italy, her studies at oxford, her meeting with gerald o'donovan, her innumerable journeys and the serenity brought to her last years by her return to the church. The end of the first section deals with the evolution of her literary career and reputation, her views on the novel as a genre and the genesis of her works. The second section analyses the different aspects of her novels. They are the works of an intellectual who has a cult for knowledge and whose staggering erudition appears at every page; of a journalist who offers us a rich chronicle of the political, social and religious life of her time; of a historian deeply in love with the past; of a moralist, keenly aware of the tragic meaning of life, but who remains nevertheless a tolerant nonconformist. The third section discusses the three key motifs - travelling, woman and religion - of a writer who dreams of "abroad", especially mediterranean and exotic countries, who, although a rather moderate feminist, succeeds in creating a number of unforgettable female characters, and who, despite a long period of agnosticism, shows a constant interest in the church of england the last part is devoted to the art of the novelist. If her technique remains traditional, her characters are remarkably real and alive

Resumen
In order to drive sustainable financial profitability, service firms make significant investments in creating service environments that consumers will prefer over the environments of their competitors. To date, servicescape research is over-focused on understanding consumers’ emotional and physiological responses to servicescape attributes, rather than taking a holistic view of how consumers cognitively interpret servicescapes. This thesis argues that consumers will cognitively ascribe symbolic meanings to servicescapes and then evaluate if those meanings are congruent with their sense of Self in order to form a preference for a servicescape. Consequently, this thesis takes a Self Theory approach to servicescape symbolism to address the following broad research question: How do ascribed symbolic meanings influence servicescape preference? Using a three-study, mixed-method approach, this thesis investigates the symbolic meanings consumers ascribe to servicescapes and empirically tests whether the joint effects of congruence between consumer Self and the symbolic meanings ascribed to servicescapes influence consumers’ servicescape preference. First, Study One identifies the symbolic meanings ascribed to salient servicescape attributes using a combination of repertory tests and laddering techniques within 19 semi-structured individual depth interviews. Study Two modifies an existing scale to create a symbolic servicescape meaning scale in order to measure the symbolic meanings ascribed to servicescapes. Finally, Study Three utilises the Self-Congruity Model to empirically examine the joint effects of consumer Self and servicescape on consumers’ preference for servicescapes. Using polynomial regression with response surface analysis, 14 joint effect models demonstrate that both Self-Servicescape incongruity and congruity influence consumers’ preference for servicescapes. Combined, the findings of three studies suggest that the symbolic meanings ascribed to servicescapes and their (in)congruities with consumers’ sense of self can be used to predict consumers’ preferences for servicescapes. These findings have several key theoretical and practical contributions to services marketing.

Musca, Kristina Alessandra. "“They Talk the Talk but They Don’t Walk the Walk”: A Qualitative Inquiry into Police Officers’ Perceptions of Stress and Stress Management". Thesis, Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa, 2016. http://hdl.handle.net/10393/35046.

Texto completo
Resumen
Police officers have one of the most stressful jobs in existence. However, information pertaining to stress management programs is limited, especially within a Canadian context. Furthermore, little is known about the processes through which officers construct their perceptions of stress and stress management since the literature has mainly focused on enumerating the frequency of existing stressors. The present study addresses these limitations by conducting a content analysis of 24 in-depth interviews with officers from a law enforcement agency in Ontario. By drawing on symbolic interactionism, the present study concludes that police officers gravitate toward the “me” or the socialized aspect of the self (Goffman, 1969) when constructing their perceptions of stress and stress management in order to protect their image and avoid stigmatization. Policy implications based on these findings are presented at the end of the study, along with directions for future research.

Texto completo
Resumen
Élève de l’École des beaux-arts de Paris, Luc-Olivier Merson obtient en 1869 le premier grand prix de Rome de peinture d’histoire, titre qui lui permet de parfaire sa formation pendant quatre années en Italie. Artiste reconnu de son vivant, Merson expose régulièrement au Salon parisien, avant d’ouvrir l’éventail de son talent à la décoration et à l’illustration. Au-delà de son goût pour la peinture monumentale, il affirme sa dilection pour l’art religieux dont il bouscule les conventions, grâce à des sources iconographiques recherchées et des sujets rares. Entre Académisme et Symbolisme, Merson confirme sa prédisposition pour le dessin, privilégiant la ligne, tout en entretenant un caractère coloriste subtil et recherché. En s’affranchissant de l’influence de son père Olivier Merson, critique d’art, et en dotant ses réalisations d’archaïsme et d’idéalisme, Luc-Olivier Merson est désormais considéré à juste titre comme l’un des précurseurs du Symbolisme. L’étude de la vie et de l’œuvre de Luc-Olivier Merson permet de comprendre les choix esthétiques et les audaces d’un artiste, trop souvent – et hâtivement – qualifié de Pompier par l’historiographie du vingtième siècle
In 1869, when a student at the École des Beaux-Arts de Paris, Luc-Olivier Merson received the Rome Prize in history painting. The award allowed him to complete his training with four years of study in Italy. A well-known artist in his own time, Merson showed regularly at the Paris Salon before broadening the scope of his creative activity to include decorative painting and illustration. Beyond his taste for monumental painting, he evinced a keen interest in religious art, whose conventions he overturned, making use of recondite iconographic sources and unusual subjects. Suspended between Academism and Symbolism, Merson displayed a penchant for drawing, always privileging line, even as he maintained a subtle and refined sense of color. Having emerged from the shadow of his father, the art critic Olivier Merson, and endowed his work with a self-conscious archaism and idealism, Luc-Olivier Merson might justly be classed among the precursors of Symbolism. By studying the life and work of Merson, we may come to understand the aesthetic choices and the audacity of an artist too often—and too hastily—termed “Pompier” in twentieth-century art historiography

Resumen
The “Rose Herbert Community Center” is the culmination of a project questioning how a building can be restored to its original integrity when its initial function has become extinct. This thesis considers the Broad Street Station in Richmond, Virginia and explores the options and implications of returning the building to a hub of interaction within the community. Concepts such as functionally malleable spaces, the transition from a very public environment to a more private area, and the creation of intentional interaction versus coexistence are explored.

Resumen
This research project is about symbolism and semiotics (the science of signs) in digital-games. There’s firstly introductory information about what symbolism and semiotics are and the different aspects of them that is needed to fully understand the subject. These are things such as the two parts of a sign, signifier and signifier as well as the three modes of signs, symbolic, iconic and indexical. Then there’s information about how this is all put together in a digital game, that a game isn’t playable without some form of signs and that besides making the game playable it is used to enhance the characters, story and experience for the player. How this is used in a more practical way is mentioned further to the end with the different approaches of working with symbolism in games. There’s either being subtle or making symbolism the main focus of the game. Through all this there’s also the importance of considering your audience and if they will understand your signs that is talked about.

Resumen
Organisationer har som utmaning att hitta styrmedel som resulterar i att deras medlemmars beteende är i enlighet med deras mål och strategier. I vanliga fall undersöker man traditionella styrmedel som cybernetisk styrning och finansiell fokus. Denna studie utforskar hur organisationskulturen påverkar styrningen och mer specifikt hur organisationer använder sig av symbolism i form av riter som styrmedel för att uppnå sina strategier och mål. Trice och Beyers sex typer av riter och Dandridges et al.:s modell för symboler används som teoretisk referensram för studien. Sex personer från olika delar inom en och samma organisation intervjuades för att ge en inblick i vilka riter som fanns samt vad de används till. Resultaten visade att 1) symboler som används vid riter och ritualer ansågs vara en av de avgörande faktorerna till varför anställda tänker och agerar på ett sätt som är i linje med organisationens mål och strategier, 2) att en och samma rit kunde ha olika kategoriseringar, samt 3) att det vid vissa tillfällen kan vara önskvärt för ledare att undvika olika typer av riter, framför allt när man vill främja kreativitet och fritt tänkande.

Resumen
I am interested in communication through symbolism. The symbols that I incorporate in my mixed media work are simplified into essential lines and shapes. I use the Kabbalah’s Tree of Life diagram as a structure to hold my own personal symbols. These symbols are my interpretation of the phases of life. I also use prehistoric symbols such as the spiral, circle, square, triangle, and cross as a focus to emphasize the beauty of these very basic lines and shapes which we see all around our world. To emphasize the beauty of symbols I use repetition, color, and texture. Life is overwhelming and chaotic at times. Having simplicity in my visual surroundings creates a sense of tranquility and contentment. I aim to convey these feelings to the viewer while having them interpret what the symbols mean to them.

Texto completo
Resumen
Starting from the premise that symbols are among the most reliable and efficient representatives of a society and that, Minoan society in particular, appears as overly dependent on symbols and their ritual use for the operation of its socio-political structure, this thesis will examine the social role of six of its most emblematic symbols: the double axe, the horns of consecration, the figure-of-eight shield, the sacred knot, the triton and the shell. Based on a large amount of data and recognizing the enormous value of contextual analysis, the social role of the symbols is illustrated through the comparison of patterns of use from a number of sites in North Central and East Crete. The selection of North Central Crete and East Crete is justified by the diversity of socio-political factors offered by the two areas: North Central Crete was a geographically unified area, where the Palace Knossos, the largest and most complex palace of Minoan Crete was built, while East Crete was a geographically fragmented area with relatively isolated settlements, which developed different degrees of palatial complexity. The variation in the responses to the emergence of the palatial system in these two inherently different geographical units is here used to demonstrate the significance of the study of Minoan symbols for the understanding of past societies. The above patterns are interpreted under the scope of an interactive relation between different social groups, individuals and objects, as well as the spaces which become fields of action for the symbols. In this frame, symbols are viewed as constantly changing formations which reflect dynamic social relations.

Resumen
The production of new rose cultivars by sexual crossing is problematic and time consuming due to sexual incompatibility. the failure of seeds to genninate. and to a limited gene pool. Biotechnology provides an obvious alternative for the creation of genetic novelty in rose. This thesis focuses on the development of novel approaches, based on embryo rescue, pollen cryopreservation, protoplast and transformation technologies. A reproducible embryo rescue technique was developed in which embryos were excised and genninated on agar solidified medium containing a basic salt mixture and carbohydrate. The choice of carbohydrate and the growth conditions employed were demonstrated to markedly affect the percentage germination and subsequent plantlet development. This technique was used to greatly increase the production of F, hybrid progeny when compared to conventional germination methods. The failure of sexual crosses between several English rose cultivars was shown to be due to a combination of low pollen viability and to the operation of a pollen-style incompatibility mechanism (probably of the gametophytic self-incompatibility type). Degree of flower opening and method of pollen dehiscence were shown to significantly affect pollen viability. A technique was developed for the effective cryopreservation of English rose pollen. Using this technique it was possible to store pollen at ultra-low temperatures without any significant loss in viability. Such a technique compared favourably with conventional techniques (refrigeration and freezing) in which a loss in viability over time was demonstrated to occur. In vitro shoot cultures of English rose were established on MS-based media containing BAP. GA3 and NAA following the treatment of explants with an antioxidant solution to negate the effects of phenolic oxidation. The production of callus was shown to be genotype dependant and lacked regeneration potential. Rhizogenic responses were observed in leaf discs of two cultivars however shoot regeneration was not observed. Using a variety of enzyme mixtures it was possible to isolate protoplasts from both In vitro leaf material and from cell suspensions. Both mesophyll and cell suspension derived protoplasts were cultured to a microcallus stage. Plating density, growth regulator concentration and the use of antioxidants were all demonstrated to have a significant effect on the protoplast plating efficiency. Rhizogenesis was achieved from mesophyll protoplast-derived calli. Protoplasts, sometimes labelled with a fluorescent marker, were subjected to both chemical and electrofusion. Using micromanipulation, heterokaryons, formed during electrofusion, were recovered. Such heterokaryons, when cultured. underwent division and formed microcalli which subsequently developed into calli. The hybrid nature of such calli were conftrmed by isozyme analysis, determination of ploidy level and RAPD analysis. The introduction of a plasmid containing a gus marker gene into zygotic embryos of English rose was shown to be possible. This was achieved by microprojectile-mediated DNA delivery using a laboratory built electrical discharge device. The efficiency of this technique was influenced by the concentration of microprojectiles and DNA used. And by firing distance and choice of DNA construct. The relevance of this study and its applications, in the context of rose breeding are discussed.

This thesis conducts the first book-length study on the operation of the Rose playhouse as a key theatrical presence whose operational history spanned over a transitional period for early modern English theatre. Inspired by the current increasing awareness of the playing company as an organising unit in additional to the author-based perspectives for studying early modern English drama, this project undertakes the task of examining the Rose playhouse as a unit for theatrical production and a nexus where various strands of the material, cultural-geographical, political, financial, as well as literary forces converged and interacted with each other.

Resumen
Using figures from the popular culture program The Bachelor in a large-scale tapestry-style weaving, I address the drive to create idealized simulations in order to better understand one’s own reality and identity. Natural dye and traditional weaving processes in combination with digital weaving technology allow me to literally integrate the juxtaposition of analog and digital elements which defines a woven image. Dye work and pattern allow for large gestural drawing marks while individual threads overlap to create literal pixelized imagery. I examine the act of weaving as the creation of screens through which one can see, hide, or obscure. I similarly question the role of the observer of a false reality and examine the choice to participate in, construct, or re-create a simulation.

In this paper I will attempt to de-strange this passage by examining it philosophically and allegorically, particularly by means of numerical symbolism.

Texto completo
Resumen
Relevance has been applied to various conditions in the marketing literature but no single definition has been developed. A single clear definition will be helpful to researchers investigating relevance in the marketing and consumer behavior fields. Confusion also exists in the literature regarding to what extent a symbolic visual in an advertisement is relevant. Many researchers are also calling for empirical evidence of a linkage between relevance and response through a theoretical measure of relevance. The central theory used in this dissertation is Sperber and Wilson's (1995) theory of relevance (TOR). TOR can help researchers and marketing managers by explaining how consumers may interpret visuals in advertising. TOR explains why some visuals thought to be unconnected with the product become relevant in advertising. This study makes the assertion that TOR has been underutilized and even ignored by some researchers in past marketing literature. Thus, TOR is used to provide greater explanatory power of consumers' interpretation and response to advertising visuals than what is currently realized by researchers and marketing managers. A reliable measure of relevance was developed using TOR as a foundation. Experiments were conducted to empirically test TOR and support was found for most aspects of the theory. This dissertation makes several contributions to the consumer behavior literature. These contributions include: 1) clarifying the definition of relevance in advertising, 2) developing a tentative measure of relevance, 3) providing an explanation of how non-relevant visuals produce effects expected for relevant visuals as occurred in experiments conducted by Mitchell and Olson (1981) and Miniard, Bhatla, Lord, Dickson and Unnava (1991), 4) showing how relevance of symbolic visuals in advertisements relates to specific consumer responses, and 5) offering suggestions for how the theory of relevance can be used by researchers and marketing managers to gain a better understanding of consumers' interpretation of advertising visuals.

A sincronização, como comportamento cooperativo universal e mecanismo fundamental na natureza, tem sido extensivamente estudada em conexão com inúmeros fenômenos em física, química e biologia [1, 2]. Em particular, a sincronização da atividade neural tem sido observada em diferentes espécies e sob condições fisiológicas distintas [3, 4]. Neste trabalho, estudamos sincronização em neurônios de Hindmarsh-Rose (HR), um modelo de potencial de membrana que representa com fidelidade o comportamento de disparos encontrado em neurônios reais [9, 10]. Iniciamos considerando o caso de um neurônio HR isolado e suas propriedades dinâmicas de geração de pulsos. Em seguida, analisamos o acoplamento entre neurônios em um sistema de dois neurônios, e em redes unidimensionais (HR-1D) e bidimensionais (HR-2D). Nessas arquiteturas, a sincronização dos elementos da rede da origem a um comportamento ordenado, coerente, que está associado não somente à produção de informação biológica [5, 6], mas também às potenciais aplicações em comunicação [7] e identificação de sistemas [8].

Resumen
Cette these presente les principes de gestion de la securite d'un systeme d'exploitation distribue a objets suivant deux axes : distribution des traitements, du stockage et de la gestion des donnees en general et distribution de la responsabilite de gestion des droits basee sur la cooperation entre plusieurs responsables securite. Les objets securises sont appeles des entites. Pour realiser le controle des droits, rose utilise des capacites qui ne sont utilisables que par une seule entite (capacites nominatives) et qui ne sont pas falsifiable (capacites signees). Les protocoles lies a chaque etape de la vie d'une capacite (creation, propagation, utilisation et revocation) sont etudies. La securite repose partiellement sur la synchronisation des horloges des differents sites du systeme reparti. Nous etudions plusieurs possibilites de limitation temporelle des droits (date donnee, intervalle et execution unique pendant un intervalle). Les ecarts de synchronisation des horloges sont pris en compte par ces contraintes temporelles et les possibilites d'attaques sont analysees en consequence. Nous proposons une solution optimisee en terme de performance et d'espace memoire occupe au probleme de distribution des cles publiques. Ces cles sont employees pour l'authentification des entites et la signature des capacites. Elles doivent etre accessibles a l'ensemble des entites du systeme. Chaque etape de la vie des cles publiques (changement de cle, generation, distribution, stockage, invalidation et utilisation) est analysee. Nous presentons les principes d'implantation et la modelisation du systeme rose realisee avec l'outil asa+. La modelisation statique permet de rendre compte de l'organisation sous forme de modules et de flots d'informations. Le modele dynamique decrit le comportement des modules et des messages echanges. Enfin, nous presentons quelques simulations du modele.
