Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior
The present dissertation aims to present the osteological anatomy of an early sauropodomorph found in Triassic rocks from the municipality of Agudo, Rio Grande do Sul (RS), Brazil. In addition, it aims to tests the biostratigraphic utility of this specimen. CAPPA/UFSM 0002 is composed of postcranial elements from the locality called Sítio Wachholz, ascribed to the Caturrita Formation. Some typical features present in prosauropods are verified in the specimen. For instance, the concave caudal margin of the neural spines of the medial trunk vertebrae, the convex proximal surface of the metacarpal V, and the distal end of the ischium higher than two times the width. On the other hand, typical features of more derived groups than Plateosauridae are absent and the slender shape of the first phalanx of the digit I of the foot corresponds to a common state of basalmost sauropodomorphs. A comparative and phylogenetic analysis among several early sauropodomorphs suggests affinities with Unaysaurus tolentinoi, the only unequivocal sauropodomorph from Caturrita Formation. Based upon such results, a biostratigraphic framework is proposed, which includes the Wachholz, Botucaraí Hill (Candelária, RS), and the Água Negra sites (São Martinho da Serra, RS), this last one so far producing the only record of U. tolentinoi. This corresponds to the first biostratigraphic framework proposed based on fossil vertebrates for the type locality of U. tolentinoi. Considering the presence of the genus Jachaleira in the Los Colorados Formation (Argentina) and in the Botucaraí Hill Site, an early Norian age is suggested to the correlated sites, as recent studies point this age to the portion that yielded Jachaleria in the Los Colorados Formation. Such age places U. tolentinoi and the other sauropodomorphs evaluated here in a unique position regarding the evolutionary history of the sauropodomorphs, suggesting that they lived in a transitional moment, between a period of low representativeness to an of extreme abundance of the group on Earth.
A presente dissertação tem como objetivo principal apresentar a anatomia óssea de um sauropodomorfo primitivo descoberto em rochas Triássicos no município de Agudo, Rio Grande do Sul (RS), Brasil. Além disso, objetiva-se testar o espécime em estudos de correlação bioestratigráfica. O espécime CAPPA/UFSM 0002 é composto por elementos pós-cranianos recuperados na localidade conhecida como Sítio Wachholz, atribuída à Formação Caturrita. É possível verificar a presença de características consideradas típicas dos prossaurópodes . Por exemplo, a forma côncava da margem caudal dos processos espinhosos das vértebras mediais truncais, a superfície convexa da extremidade proximal do metacarpal V e a extremidade distal do ísquio com altura maior do que duas vezes sua largura. Por outro lado, feições típicas de grupos mais derivados do que Plateosauridae não foram encontradas e a primeira falange do digito I do pé apresenta morfologia delgada, comum em sauropodomorfos mais basais. Uma análise comparativa e filogenética dentre diversos sauropodomorfos primitivos sugere afinidades com Unaysaurus tolentinoi, até o momento o único sauropodomorfo inequivoco da Formação Caturrita. Com base em tais resultados, é proposto um esquema de correlação entre os sítios Wachholz, Botucaraí (Candelária, RS) e Água Negra (São Martinho da Serra, RS), este último tendo produzido o único registro de U. tolentinoi até o momento. Assim, esta é a primeira proposta bioestratigrafica envolvendo a localidade tipo de U. tolentinoi com base em vertebrados fósseis. Dada a presença do gênero Jachaleria na Formação Los Colorados (Argentina) e no Sítio Cerro Botucaraí, é sugerida idade Noriana inicial para os sítios correlacionados neste esquema, uma vez que estudos recentes apontam a mesma idade para a porção com registro do gênero na Formação Los Colorados. Esta idade coloca U.tolentinoi e os outros espécimes avaliados aqui em uma posição única na historia evolutiva dos sauropodomorfos, sugerindo que eles viveram em um momento de transição de um período de baixa representatividade para um de extrema abundância do grupo na Terra.

Résumé :

This thesis aims to set the Engishiki Norito (hereafter Norito), a group of early Japanese liturgical texts, in the context of the broader Old Japanese textual tradition and, in the process, draw attention to their value as literary artefacts. This is achieved by valorizing the role in the texts of rhetoric - defined broadly as meaningful units of repetitive language - and demonstrating that rhetorical structures similar to those found in the Norito exist throughout the corpus of Old Japanese literature, as far as it is extant. There have only been two substantial attempts to engage with the repetitive language in the Norito as a network of structures or systems recognizable as rhetoric (Inamura & Inamura, 1956; Kameyama, 1995). While still valuable, these studies embody the combined legacies of diverse traditional discourses, borrowed Western notions of veracity versus ornament and narratives of continuity poorly applied to early Japan that have affected Norito scholarship generally. In particular, they do not pay close attention to the syntax, morphology and phonology of Old Japanese encoded in the texts, as distinct from later forms of Japanese. Neither do they emphasize the extent of the close intertextual bonds the Norito share with other Old Japanese texts, or the associative potential of logography in a textual tradition as sophisticated as that within which the Norito were recorded in writing. In Western Japanological discourse, the repetitively structured language termed rhetoric in this study has been openly viewed as detrimental to the Norito's literary worth (Sansom 1931, Philippi 1959, 1990); most likely as a result of the problematic status of rhetoric and repetition in Western modernity. This - coupled with disciplinary divisions in Japan - has resulted in the Norito becoming divorced from the mainstream corpus of Old Japanese literature, despite their close relationship to that corpus and despite their high degree of rhetorical sophistication. After addressing some of the reasons for the Norito's alienation in discourse on Japanese literature, and exploring some theoretical dimensions of rhetoric itself, this study proceeds to set the liturgies in the context of Old Japanese oral and textual cultures and to begin to introduce features of their rhetoric - noting that the interrelatedness of rhetorical structures is a major key to understanding them. The last three chapters of the study are concerned with rhyme, a special feature that is both an analogue of, and interconnected with, other rhetorical structures. Together, the three chapters argue that rhyme is an understudied but pervasive feature of Japanese poetry and song and that - in the Old Japanese case - rhyming structures constitute a significant component of the rhetoric of the Norito and other texts. The development of a robust analytical approach to rhetorical features of Old Japanese texts has been hampered by the persistent reluctance to associate Japanese literature with 'rhyme', or é» in - two terms with problematic heritages. In attempting to implement such an approach in the case of the Norito, it is hoped that this study will, in small measure, contribute to a better understanding of rhetorical texts in general and, above all, to the repositioning of the Norito within the mainstream corpus of Old Japanese literature, where they belong.

Thesis, Umeå universitet, Företagsekonomi, 2020. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:umu:diva-172725.

Texte intégral

Résumé :

As the fourth digital revolution is initiated and digitalization is becoming increasingly evident in today’s society, the concept of artificial intelligence (AI) is experiencing a boom and is continuously transforming a vast variety of industries. Previous studies have found several links between AI usage and economic benefits, such as increased efficiency and lower costs. Furthermore, such benefits have been connected to financial performance indicators such as return on assets (ROA) and stock return. Additionally, the Nordic countries are known for their flourishing technological environment and the involvement in well-known technology-oriented companies. These underlying factors shaped the interest of exploring the relationship between AI usage and financial performance, as measured by ROA, stock return and the volatility of stock returns. The idea of including these three performance indicators was to get both an internal perspective, as well as a market perspective from an investors point of view while incorporating risk. This census study was conducted by performing three multiple regression models on the companies on Nasdaq OMX Nordic, which resulted in a population of 152 companies. By gathering observations between the years 2015-2019, the total number of observations amounted to 721 for the ROA model, 720 for the stock return model, and 714 for the risk model. The study follows a quantitative research design, with an objective and positivist view in regard to the research philosophical assumptions. Furthermore, a deductive research approach is taken, since previous studies, as well as theories such as the stakeholder and shareholder theories, the disruption theory, the resource-based theory and the dynamic capabilities theory are used to make conclusions. Additionally, the chosen regression model was the OLS model, incorporating the robust function since none of the regressions were fulfilling the assumption of constant variation of the error term. On a 95% confidence interval, all null hypotheses could be rejected, meaning that there was a relationship between AI usage and all performance indicators. However, the relationships were unexpectedly weak and opposing of the researchers’ expectations. As it turns out, internal performance as measured by ROA, as well as market performance measured by stock return proved to have a small negative relationship with ROA. This means that Nordic companies utilizing AI sees a negative impact on financial performance in the short run. However, risk as measured by the standard deviation (SD) of stock returns, showed a positive relationship with AI usage, meaning that investing in companies using AI is riskier. The findings contradict the idea that the economic benefits from AI cause a higher financial performance. However, since AI is just seeing a boom as of recently, it is possible that it might pay off financially in the long run.

Résumé :

This study explores the driving forces and motives behind contemporary Nordic security cooperation. It asks and investigates whether the security cooperation has a foundation based on a shared (peace) identity or is founded on rational and functionalistic calculations. Through applying a theoretical model based on the theory of Regional Security Complexes the study reveal how external and internal transformations affect the Nordic nations and forces them to respond. The study reveals how both these factors are important when explaining the responses of the Nordic states and the development of the Nordic security cooperation. While national strategies differ there is a need to look to the own region which has led the Nordic states to search for a security structure at home. The study concludes that all of the Nordic nations have had to respond to a changing external environment which has put pressure on their defense budgets which problematizes their national foreign policy and security strategies. A strong Nordic amity and tradition of cooperation has eased a stronger formal structure which increases cost-effectiveness and functionalism for the Nordic states security structures. This structure has replaced older identity based and influence searching structures. Conclusively, contemporary Nordic security cooperation can be said to increase the Nordic states‟ security while simultaneously letting them follow their national security strategies. Norden is thus regaining importance and Nordic security cooperation show that the region is both active and proactive in dealing with their regional issues.

Donovan, Rob. « Drink in Victorian Norwich ». Thesis, University of East Anglia, 2003. http://ethos.bl.uk/OrderDetails.do?uin=uk.bl.ethos.399803.

Texte intégral

Résumé :

This thesis maintains that Victorian social cohesion depended to a significant degree on drink. In Norwich and other urban centres, population growth led to an expansion of the supply of alcoholic drink. Inadequate sanitation and water supply problems meant that beer answered a dietary need for a liquid that was safe to drink. Alcohol provided depressant comfort in the face of poverty and squalor for the working class. In these circumstances, most social and political functions were connected with the public house. Most public houses in Norwich experienced sufficiently long periods of publican stability to have played an important role in the development of working-class communities. At a time of acute housing problems, the public house provided both a public space and relief from squalor. In Norwich and elsewhere, the urban elite used working-class dependence on drink to their own political advantage at election time through bribery, treating, and the control of organised gangs of `roughs'. These traditional practices were eventually proscribed by the government at Westminster but proved difficult to eradicate in Norwich. There was little overt interference with the infrastructure of drinking in Norwich. Although Norwich had the highest density of drinking places to population in England, the city could boast the lowest rate of drunkenness. This infrastructure was effective not least because brewers were key members of the urban elite and were influential in the Watch Committee that controlled the policing of the city. However, the Temperance Movement developed as a consequence of the challenge to traditional Christian ethics presented by the consumption of drink in this new urban context. By 1901, Norwich was becoming a more sober, compassionate and just society, but this was not due to the victory of Temperance but rather to a shift in the `structure of feeling' that placed more emphasis on social responsibility.

Résumé :

Quality can be defined as the ability of a business to satisfy their customers’ needs and expectations. Total Quality Management is defined as the way to prevent, appraise and improve the entire organization to increase the product quality. In order to systematically increase quality in an organization, there are different quality systems in use. One example is process management, which is to divide the activities of processes. Quality assurance aims to increase revenues and reduce operating expenses. It is therefore essential to identify the costs that arise from poor quality and which do not add value to the customers. In Swedish industries it is estimated that these quality deficiency costs lie between 10 and 30 % of a business' turnover. This study aims to identify costs of poor quality in a manufacturing business. Costs of poor quality are a major part of the organization’s net sales and are therefore important to consider. This study also aims to develop a model with metrics for quality costs. The study is based on a qualitative methodology and empirical data gathered from two observations and seven interviews with representatives from Nordic Waterproofing AB. The empirical material is based on information from three main processes; supplier process, production process and sales process. This study has resulted in a model for survey poor quality costs in a manufacturing business. The total costs of poor quality that could be defined at Nordic Waterproofing AB was estimated to 8 775 000 SEK, which is 2.93 % of the business turnover. This gives a total estimated cost of poor quality around 10-15 % of the business turnover for all the processes. Furthermore, this resulted helped to give Nordic Waterproofing AB an indication of where these cost incurred and recommendations for further work with identify poor costs of quality.

ii Sammanfattning Ekonomihögskolan, Linnéuniversitetet, Controller, kurskod: 4FE03E, våren 2013 Författare: Elias Awadis Handledare: Elin Funck Titel: Hälsoekonomisk utvärdering - Össur Nordic AB Bakgrund: Hälsoekonomi som vetenskaplig disciplin har sina rötter långt tillbaka på 1960-talet och har sitt ursprung i att resurserna i samhället är begränsade. De begränsade resurserna inom sjukvården resulterade i att hälsosektorn var tvungna att prioritera. Mot bakgrund av ständigt återkommande diskussioner om resursbrist i sjukvården har hälsoekonomi framträtt som en framstående disciplin inom hälso- och sjukvårdssektorn. Syfte: Studiens syfte är att utveckla en hälsoekonomisk utvärdering med ett samhällsperspektiv för Össurs knäartrosbehandling med Unloader® One i jämförelse med traditionell farmakologisk behandling. Vidare avser studien att förklara vilka faktorer som är väsentliga att beakta vid utvecklandet av en hälsoekonomisk utvärdering. Metod: Ett interventionistiskt angreppssätt har använts i studien för att kunna uppfylla syftet med studien. Datainsamlingsmetoder såsom intervjuer har använts i syfte att erhålla utökad kunskap. Dokumentstudier har också varit nödvändiga för att kunna slutföra kalkylberäkningarna. För- och nackdelar med de metodologiska val som gjorts diskuteras ingående. Resultat: Resultaten från denna studie visar att en behandling med Unloader® One i jämförelse med traditionell farmakologisk behandling har lägre kostnader ur ett samhällsperspektiv. Resultatet visar även att det finns ett antal faktorer som är väsentliga att beakta i utvecklandet av en hälsoekonomisk utvärdering, såsom bland annat kostnader som skall ingå i beräkningen, tillgången på data samt valet av typpatient. Slutsatser: De resultat som presenterats bör beaktas med försiktighet, men studien ger upphov till intressanta slutresultat som är användbara inför framtida utvärderingsarbete. Kostnadsanalysen visade att sjukskrivningskostnaderna är de största kostnaderna ur ett samhällsperspektiv, och det är förmodligen är där de största kostnadsbesparingarna kan göras. Dock krävs mer tillgång till data för att öka utvärderingens evidensgrad

Résumé :

Okun´s law describes the empirical observation first made by Arthur Okun relating changes in an economy’s unemployment rate to changes in output. Where many earlier research papers since then focus on comparisons between countries, this paper attempts to assess whether Okun’s law is demonstrated in the five Nordic countries and analyse the relationship between unemployment and output in welfare states. The results show a significant statistical relationship and hopefully present an interesting opportunity for further research.

Texte intégral

Résumé :

På 1970-talet var flygbolaget Southwest Airlines en av pionjärerna inom området lojalitetsprogram då de införde bonusprogrammet ”Sweetheart Stamps” för sina tjänsteresenärer. Många flygbolag följde efter och idag har nästan varje flygbolag sitt eget bonusprogram. I det här läget försöker FlyNordic, uppdragsgivaren till denna uppsats, att hitta ett sätt att skapa lojalitet bland sina tjänsteresenärer.

Frågan är vad tjänsteresenärer önskar sig av bolaget för att vara lojala mot det. Syftet med denna uppsats är att ge rekommendationer till FlyNordic om hur de kan skapa lojalitet bland sina tjänsteresenärer i Umeå och Luleå. Den frågeställning som uppsatsen söker besvara lyder:

”Hur kan FlyNordic öka lojaliteten bland tjänsteresenärer i Umeå och Luleå?”

Författarna har valt att använda en kvalitativ forskningsmetod för att uppfylla sitt syfte och utgår från en hermaneutisk kunskapssyn. Angreppssättet som använts för att närma sig frågeställningen är en blandning av deduktion och induktion. Studien tar avstamp i tidigare forskning och teorier, men genererar även nya förklaringar inom undersökningens område.

De teorier som utgör stommen i uppsatsen inleds med ett resonemang kring business-to-business-marknadsföring, vilket leder författarna in på relationsmarknadsföring som är den dominerande marknadsförings-inriktningen inom business-to-business-marknadsföring. Dessa avsnitt visar vägen till teoridelens kärna, nämligen teorier om lojalitet, hur promotion bör utformas på producentmarknaden samt om lojalitets-program.

Författarna har använt sig av intervjuer för att samla in empirisk information för uppsatsen. Respondenterna är åtta tjänsteresenärer som alla reser frekvent på sträckan Luleå – Stockholm eller Umeå – Stockholm. Intervjuerna gav information om hur respondenternas resebokning går till, vad de anser allmänt om val av flygbolag, lojalitet till flygbolag och till lojalitetsprogram samt vad de har för inställning till FlyNordic.

Resultatet av den empiriska emiriska undersökningen visar att respondenterna lägger störst vikt vid ett antal grundläggande faktorer, som författarna väljer att benämna primära påverkansfaktorer. Dessa är pris, tidtabell, punktlighet och plats. Efter att dessa faktorer är tillfredsställda önskar resenärerna framförallt större bekvämlighet och bättre service, vilket benämns sekundära påverkansfaktorer, för att de ska vara lojala mot ett flygbolag. Först efter att dessa faktorer är tillfredsställda får de tertiära faktorerna betydelse, nämligen förmåner som inte har med själva resan att göra.

Författarnas rekommendationer till FlyNordic är att de inför ett kvartalskort som innebär fria resor under tre månader. Kvartalskortet bör innebära fördelar för resenären i form av exempelvis smidigare incheckning och sms vid förseningar. Grundläggande förutsättningar för att kunna skapa lojalitet är dock att priset hålls på en bra nivå, att tidtabellen ses över och eventuellt utökas samt att FlyNordic håller en bra punktlighet.

Résumé :

Alla luce dei risultati di eco-sostenibilità profondamente distanti registrati nelle capitali dei diversi Paesi dell'Unione Europea, desidero verificare fino a che punto la storia del Novecento del continente europeo possa spiegare tali differenze. Nel primo capitolo della tesi, discuterò la teoria alla base del cosiddetto "modello nordico", inteso come sistema socio-economico capace di coniugare eccellenze economiche e ambientali nei Paesi del Nord Europa. Tale modello sarà confrontato con le politiche ambientali adottate dall'Unione Sovietica, caratterizzate spesso dallo sfruttamento non sostenibile delle risorse nelle sue Repubbliche. La ricostruzione del caso delle Repubbliche Baltiche, rimaste a lungo bloccate tra la fascinazione per il modello nordico e il peso del controllo sovietico, consentirà di focalizzare meglio le differenze tra i due sistemi di governance ambientale. Nel secondo capitolo, saranno presentate tre coppie di casi (Stoccolma e Copenhagen, Berlino e Sofia, Tallinn e Riga). Si seguirà lo sviluppo di queste sei città dall'inizio del Novecento fino al crollo dell'URSS, con particolare attenzione al grado di sensibilità mostrato nei confronti di variabili ambientali quali l'efficienza energetica degli edifici, i trasporti e la qualità dell'aria. Nel terzo capitolo, la teoria discussa nei primi paragrafi sarà applicata ai sei casi, confrontando le ipotesi teoriche con i risultati ambientali effettivamente conseguiti dalle sei città. Si verificherà l'eccellenza ambientale di Stoccolma e Copenhagen (e quindi del modello nordico); si valuterà il peso dell'eredità ambientale comunista per la metà est di Berlino e per Sofia; si confronteranno infine Riga e Tallinn, per indagare come il dominio dell'URSS e la successiva transizione verso la democrazia e l'economia di mercato abbiano condizionato lo sviluppo urbano del Baltico.

Résumé :

Heavy forestry machines have great immediate effect on soil properties. This increases the interest to develop approaches that help understanding better the interaction between the forest machines and the terrain and consequently develop the forwarders to be gentle to the environment. The most predominant indications of soil disturbances caused by harvesting are mainly rutting and soil compaction. It is critical to understand and evaluate these damages to be able to protect the remaining trees and improve their tree growth rate. Comprehending the bearing capacity of the soil and the interaction between tire and soil are the key issues to develop forest machines that preserve the terrain. The first step to accomplish this goal is to compare the rut depth theoretical data from empirical models with the rut depth data from a full scale field test, the models suitable to predict rut depth is descripted. Tree roots reinforce the forest floor and significantly increase the bearing capacity of the soil. The contribution from root layer to the soil bearing capacity depends on the number, diameter, orientation of the roots and their mechanical properties. To improve the root tensile strength model, a root bending and stretching laboratory test has been carry out and compared with FEM-based results. The existing Valmet 860. 3 Adams MBS model is finally used to study the suitability of the model to predict rut depth. A comparison between several existing methods to predict rut depth is also shown.
Tunga skogsmaskiner har stor omedelbar effekt på markens egenskaper. Detta ökar intresset för att utveckla strategier som underlättar förståelsen av samverkan mellan skogsmaskiner och terrängen och därmed utveckla framdrivning av dessa maskiner som är skonsam mot miljön. De dominerande indikationerna på markstörningar orsakade av hjulbaserade skogsmaskiner är främst spårbildning och jordkompaktering. Det är viktigt att förstå och utvärdera dessa skador för att kunna skydda de kvarvarande träden och förbättra deras tillväxt. Att förstå markens bärighet och samspelet mellan däck och mark är de viktigaste frågorna för att utveckla skogsmaskiner som skonar terrängen. Det första steget för att uppnå detta mål är att jämföra spårdjup vilka är framtagna med empiriska modeller med data för spårdjup från ett fullskaligt fälttest, där de modeller som lämpar sig för att förutsäga spårdjup är beskrivna. Trädrötter förstärker skogsmarken och ökar avsevärt jordens bärighet. Bidraget från rotlagret till jordens bärförmåga beror på antalet rötter, deras diameter samt rötternas orientering och deras mekaniska egenskaper. För att förbättra modellen för rötternas mekaniska egenskaper har rotböjning och rottöjning studerats i ett laboratorietest och vidare jämförts med FEM-baserade resultat. Den befintliga MBS modellen av skotaren Valmet 860.3 har slutligen används för att studera lämpligheten av modellen för att förutsäga spårdjup. En jämförelse mellan flera olika metoder för att förutsäga spårdjup visas också.

Billoteau, Elisabeth Emmanuelle. « Julian de Norwich, mystique et théologie ». Thesis, Strasbourg, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014STRAK006.

Texte intégral

Résumé :

Quelles sont les caractéristiques d’une théologie issue de la mystique ? Telle est la question à laquelle nous tenterons de répondre à partir d’un cas particulier, celui des Showings de Julian de Norwich (XIVe-XVe s.). La version longue de cet opus nous permet d’observer un phénomène d’amplification et d’élaboration qui touche les domaines de l’anthropologie, de la christologie et de la théologie trinitaire. Puisant dans l’expérience vive, le propos théologique de Julian est traversé des affects liés à ce vécu. Julian parle de Dieu en ne cessant de parler à Dieu et en établissant avec ses « semblables dans le Christ » une communauté émotionnelle et noétique. Mais une expérience mystique ne donne pas forcément lieu à une théologie mystique au sens où l’entendent le Pseudo-Denys et Jean Gerson. C’est plutôt à une théologie prophétique et visionnaire que nous avons à faire, qui assume pleinement son caractère partiel, situé. Nous nous trouvons ici à un tournant de l’histoire de la théologie et de la spiritualité qui voit l’émergence de deux domaines séparés, celui de la théologie scolastique ou universitaire et celui de la spiritualité, là où la patristique témoignait d’une profonde unité. Les différentes méthodologies mises en œuvre dans cette recherche sont au service d’une étude qui se situe tout à la fois dans le champ de la théologie et de l’histoire de la spiritualité
What are the main characteristics of a theology stemming from a mystic experience ? This thesis attempts to answer this question by examining an individual case, that of The Showings of Julian of Norwich (C14th- C15th). The Long Text of this opus enables us to observe a development in the fields of anthropology, Christology and Trinitarian theology. Firmly rooted in her experience of life, Julian’s theological discourse is interwoven with the emotions drawn from that experience. Julian speaks about God in speaking to God and in establishing with her « fellow Christians » an emotional and noetic community. But a mystical experience does not automatically give birth to a mystical theology as understood by Pseudo-Dionysius and Jean Gerson. We are rather in the presence of a prophetical and visionary theology that is fully conscious of its partial, limited, and contextualised nature. We find ourselves at a turning-point in the history of theology and spirituality, which sees the emergence of two separate fields that of scholastic theology and that of spirituality, where previously patristic theology bore witness to a profound unity. The different methodologies used in this research are in the service of a study within two distinct fields : those of theology and the history of spirituality

Résumé :

The Nordic Seas provide the main oceanic connection between the Arctic and the deep global oceans via dense overflows between Greenland and Scotland, into the North Atlantic. An understanding of the circulation and exchanges of this region is vital for any consideration of the implications of high latitude climate change to variability in the Atlantic thermohaline circulation and consequences for regional (European) climate. This thesis makes use of a unique data set of near synoptic hydrographic and LADCP (lowered acoustic Doppler current profiler) measurements across the entire region during summer 1999. The box inverse method is applied to this hydrographic data, using computed geostrophic velocities referenced to detided LADCP measurements. The full summer Nordic Sea flux field (volume, heat and freshwater) is quantified, studying both the exchanges across the openings to the Nordic Seas, and the interior circulation. The total volume transports imply an inflow of 1.3 ± 0.5 Sv to the Nordic Seas from the Arctic Ocean, and a net export of 1.2 ± 0.5 Sv across the Greenland-Scotland Ridge into the North Atlantic. Within the Nordic Seas 4.0 ± 1.3 Sv of the warm saline inflow (s0 < 27.8) are converted to more dense waters, with the majority of the transformation (and ocean-atmosphere heat loss) occurring over the southern part of the Nordic Seas. The total heat convergence within the Nordic Seas is 137 ± 44 TW, giving an average flux of 51 ± 16 W m–2, and the net input of freshwater to the Nordic Seas is 0.059 ± 0.019 Sv. The sensitivity of the summer circulation and fluxes is investigated; considering the formal error estimates from the inverse model, together with the errors implied from inverse and oceanographic sensitivity tests. Supplementary winter data is used to construct a winter circulation providing an indication of significant seasonal variability. This infers that an estimate of the annual mean fluxes based on summer data alone cannot be justified.

Résumé :

In the early 19th Century, Germany was gripped by a fascination with the ‘North’ that influenced writers and philosophers like Herder, Goethe, Uhland and Fontane as well as music. Countless compositions emerged, which were either inspired by works of important writers like Robert Burns, Sir Walter Scott, and Macpherson or by the gloomy atmosphere of the Northern landscapes in general. While this ‘Nordic tone’ in music was of fundamental importance for 19th Century musical aesthetics, scholars seem to have a very vague understanding of what the ‘Nordic tone’ should evoke and an even vaguer idea of how exactly this was to be achieved. This confusion is partly due to ambiguity in the terminology: just as Herder and his contemporaries had made no distinction between Gaelic, Celtic, and Germanic heritages, mid 19th Century German critics did not distinguish between, for instance, an ‘Ossianic manner’, an overall ‘Nordic character’ or a ‘Scottish style’. Sharing Mendelssohn’s enthusiasm, the composer Carl Loewe (1796-1869) wrote a number of ballads dealing with Scottish, English and Nordic themes. However, an important question to be addressed is: can one really analytically detect a ‘Nordic’ tone in Loewe’s ballads, however programmatic a composition’s ballad title may sound, particularly given the vagueness of the discussion about the ‘Nordic tone’? Secondly, given the terminological ambiguity, did Loewe differentiate between an English, Scottish and Scandinavian tone or did he adopt an all-inclusive ‘Nordic tone’? This dissertation revisits the question of the ‘Nordic tone’ in Loewe’s English, Scottish and Nordic ballads. How does Loewe’s approach towards these nations differ, considering that he visited England and Norway, but never Scotland? It will be demonstrated how Loewe’s image of the Northern cultures was formed, to what extent he differentiated between England, Scotland and Scandinavia, and whether he adopted an all inclusive ‘Nordic’ tone.

Résumé :

In the 20th Century, the Nordic regtion was often regarded as a politically and ecclessiastically homogenous area. Archbishop Söderblom was partly responsible for that conception by creating a Nordic Bishops´ Council and by conducting its business with intent to coordinate actions and declarations by the Nordic Folk Churches. In this paper I incuire into the fate of the Nordic Ecumenical Institute (founded in 1940), and, in doing so, I also look at the notion of Scandinavism and a Nordic region. I explore regions as areas for Christian cooperation. Furthermore the terms Institute and Council will be studied. Manfred Björkquist´s attempts to create in Sigtuna a Nordic Ecumenical Institute will be studied as well as his strategies to deal with the considerable scepticism in the Nordic region, expressed particularly by the Church of Norway. Did such strategies lead to innate defects that caused the Nordic Ecumenical Council to collapse much later? I intend to demonstrate how political stress and theological controversy created conditions in which the Nordic Ecumenical Institute/ Council could not compensate for the loss of both an academic research role as well as the loss of the role of being a regional structure for the emerging World Council of Churches.

Résumé :

There is an increasing demand for the private sector to include corporate social responsibility in their business and everyday work. This thesis has studied the corporate responsibility of firms in the Nordic countries (Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden), compared with firms in 18 other OECD countries. The results are then analysed by referring to the institutional framework that firms operate in; national and international institutions. In particular, the thesis aims at examining whether there is a distinctive Nordic approach towards CSR. The Nordic countries are argued to operate in a specific national business system, influenced by the welfare state model which also impact firms’ approach towards CSR. Furthermore, the role of multi-stakeholder initiatives (MSIs) is emphasized. National institutions are, due to increased globalization and awareness of global governance gaps, increasingly challenged by international institutions. To address this issue variables are collected from the MSI UN Global Compact (UNGC) Implementation Survey from 2017, the main variable being overall CSR actions the companies take, and more specifically with regard to human rights (HR), labour rights (LR), environment (EN) and anti-corruption (AC). A simple OLS with robust standard errors was performed to define the relationship between the variables. The result show both similarities and differences between the Nordic and OECD companies, but also differences to a larger extent than expected between the Nordic countries. The main contribution of this study is thus to highlight factors that influences companies’ CSR, with possible implications for policy makers as well as managers on a national and international level. Further research should elaborate and expand the CSR actions and compare on a cross-country level instead of a Nordic and OECD level and include companies in other MSIs.
Det finns ett ökat krav på den privata sektorn att inkludera CSR (corporate social responsibility = företags samhällsansvar) i deras verksamhet och dagliga arbete. Detta arbete har studerat de nordiska ländernas (Danmark, Finland, Norge och Sverige) företags hållbarhetsarbete och jämfört med företag i 18 OECD länder. Resultatet är sedan analyserat genom att referera till vilka institutionella ramverk som företag verkar inom; nationella och internationella institutioner. Framförallt, detta arbete har studerat om det finns ett distinkt nordiskt förhållningssätt till CSR. De nordiska länderna är omtalade av att verka i en speciell nationell struktur (national business system), påverkad av välfärdsmodellen och som i sin tur påverkar förtagens förhållningssätt till CSR. Följande, vilken roll multi-stakeholder initiatives (MSIs) har är diskuterat. De nationella institutionerna är i dagenens kontext, med ökad globalisering och medvetenhet om globala problem som kräver globala lösningar, konfronterade med internationella institutioner. För att undersöka detta hämtades variablerna från MSI UN Global Compact (UNGC) Implementation Survey 2017 och huvudvariabeln är CSR aktiviteter inom hela CSR arbetet, men framförallt inom mänskliga rättigheter (human rights, HR), arbetsrättigheter (labour rights, LR), miljö (environment, EN) och anti-korruption (anti-corruption, AC). En vanlig OLS med robust standard errors användes för att bestämma sambandet mellan variablerna. Resultatet visar både likheter och skillnader mellan de nordiska och OECD länderna, men däremot visar resultatet mer skillnader mellan de nordiska länderna än förväntat. Det viktigaste bidraget med denna studie är att uppmärksamma de faktorer som påverkar företagets CSR, med vidare rekommendationer till beslutsfattare och managers på en nationell och internationell nivå. Fortsatta studier kan utveckla CSR aktiviteterna, jämföra på en nationell nivå istället för på en nordiska och OECD nivå, samt inkludera företag från andra MSIs.

Résumé :

In the 20th Century the Nordic region was often regarded as a politically, socially and ecclesiastically homogenous area. This was partly a conception formed by Archbishop Söderblom´s creating of a Nordic Bishops´Council to coordinate actions and declarations by the Nordic Folk churches. The general ecumenical development during the 19th and 20th Centuries created a perceived need for a regional ecumenical organisation in the Nordic region to serve the emerging WCC. Mr Manfred Björkquist was the man who proposed the setting up of a Nordic Ecumenical Institute in Sigtuna, Sweden. His proposals were strongly critizised in particular by the Oslo Bishop, Eivind Berggrav. Bishop Berggrav managed to force Björkquist to give up his plans for academic research to be one of the objectives of the Nordic ecumenical Sigtuna Institute. In addition WCC elected to abandon the original planfor a regional membership structure for WCC. One may note a particular pattern for ecumenical impediments repeating itself. In the 19th Century intended church cooperation was made impossible in the Nordic region through political stress and theological controversy. Political stress during the 19th Century occurred when Denmark failed to muster Nordic support for a military take over of Schleswig. In the 20thCentury the 2nd World War created considerable political stress in the region. Theological controversy occurred in the 18th Century over the theology of Grundtvig and in the 20th Century over Episcopacy. Political stress and theological controversy created a non helpful context for the Nordic Ecumenical Institute after its formation in 1940. In that context the Institute had to handle the adverse effects of the loss of Academic research and the loss of a regional membership structure for WCC. The combination of losses in the unhelpful context appear to have been innate defects for an organisation that elected to ignore the dramatic changes and carry on with "business as usual" and in that manner prepare for its own disintegration.

Résumé :

The act of terrorism is a widely discussed topic. How it is conducted as well as how it is countered. A term not so often discussed is the changes we have seen within the field itself, one example being the theory brought about by Peter R. Neumann. This theory is known as Older & Newer Terrorism which divides the terrorism of old with the type of terrorism nowadays. The theory indicates a shift in the structure, aim and methods of terrorist organizations. This being from a hierarchical, nationalist/marxist way with attacks aimed at legitimate targets towards a networked and transnational structure which is religiously inspired and makes use of mass-casualty attacks against civilians. With that aim the thesis seeks to put the theory to the test using the Nordic Resistance Movement (NRM), and determine whether or not it holds up to the test of time. It shows that the theory has some struggle with defining the NRM as a terrorist organization which would operate under the Newer Terrorism term. This in turn leads to the questions of whether or not the theory is flawed in some way, or that the NRM simply should be considered an old terrorist organization.

Texte intégral

Résumé :

The Nordic media market has since the end of the 1990’s experienced a number of consolidations and the market has become increasingly integrated. Some companies within the market are diversified, meaning they are involved in many different kinds of businesses, while other are focused, which implies that they are focused on one business segment.

Different research views explain different motives for diversification. The resource view explain diversification by claiming that a company having underused resources needs to profitably employ them elsewhere in order to expand. The agency view explains diversification with the agent’s different incentives compared to the principal. The market power view implies that by having more resources a company can strengthen its competitiveness. Furthermore, there may be financial and synergetic motives behind diversification.

This thesis investigates the relation diversification has with size, sales growth, financial efficiency ratios, and stability. By doing this we can explain the motives behind diversification in the Nordic media market through using existing theories and hence applying a deductive research approach. The thirty largest media companies in the Nordic media market were analyzed.

The degree of diversification had a positive relationship with the total revenue of the investigated firms. Furthermore, diversified firms on average had higher revenues than its focused counterparts. The more diversified the firms are the higher sales growth they have and diversified companies had a higher average sales growth than the focused firms. A higher degree of diversification did not increase the firms’ financial efficiency and diversified firms did not have a higher average efficiency. However, one of the measured ratios, ROA, was higher for focused firms. Based on knowledge gained from portfolio theory we believed, before conducting the statistical analyses, that a higher degree of diversification would stabilize the cash flows for the investigated companies. However, no statistical evidence was found supporting that a higher degree of diversification would improve cash flow stability.

Texte intégral

Résumé :

Nordic Cab AB är ett företag som säljer multifunktionella barnvagnar. Dessa barnvagnar har utbytbara delar vilket gör att man kan omvandla dem till en jogging-, cykel-, skid-, hund- eller vandringsvagn.

Syftet med denna uppsats är att prissätta Nordic Cab AB:s multifunktionella barnvagn. För att uppnå detta beskriver vi först hur olika faktorer påverkar Nordic Cab AB:s prissättning. Dessa faktorer är företagets mål, kostnader, efterfrågan och konkurrenter. Utifrån dessa faktorer och intervjuer med återförsäljare av multifunktionella barnvagnar och VD:n för Nordic Cab AB kommer vi fram till att Nordic Cab AB borde använda sig av en prissättningsmetod som baseras på upplevt kundvärde.

Genom att låta återförsäljare av multifunktionella barnvagnar betygsätta hur viktiga olika egenskaper hos dessa är för kunden och hur bra de olika företagen på marknaden är på att tillgodose dessa egenskaper kan vi presentera ett kundvärde för Nordic Cab AB och två av deras konkurrenter. Vi jämför dessa och kommer fram till att skillnaden i erbjudet kundvärde mellan Nordic Cab AB och Företag A (som tar ett högre pris) inte reflekterar prisskillnaden mellan de båda. Därför rekommenderar vi Nordic Cab AB att höja sitt pris så att det ligger närmare Företag A:s.

Nordic Cab AB is a company which sells multifunctional children strollers. These strollers have replaceable parts which makes it possible to transform them into a jogging-, bicycle-, ski-, dog- or hiking trailer.

The purpose of this thesis is to price Nordic Cab AB's multifunctional stroller. In order to achieve this we first describe how different factors affect Nordic Cab AB's pricing. These factors are the company's goal, costs, demand and competition. From these factors and interviews with retailers of multifunctional strollers and the CEO of Nordic Cab AB we reach the conclusion that Nordic Cab AB should use a pricing method which is based on perceived customer value.

By letting retailers of multifunctional strollers grade how important different abilities of these are to the customer and how good the different companies on the market are at supplying these abilities, we can present a figure of customer value for Nordic Cab AB and two of their competitors. We compare these and reach the conclusion that the difference in customer value offered between Nordic Cab AB and Company A (which charges a higher price) does not reflect the difference in price between the two. Therefore we recommend Nordic Cab AB to raise their price to approach Company A's.

Texte intégral

Résumé :

Mycket av den moderna sjukvården bygger på ett omfattande användande av läkemedel. Inom läkemedelsbranschen är det en förutsättning att produkterna håller en hög kvalitet eftersom de påverkar användarnas hälsa. Marknadsföring av läkemedel är strikt reglerad och riktar sig inte främst till slutkunden utan till förskrivande vårdpersonal. Läkemedelsföretag är vinstmotiverade och strävar efter lämpliga marknadsföringsstrategier för att kunna överträffa konkurrenternas erbjudanden. Syftet med denna kandidatuppsats var att få en fördjupad förståelse för hur marknadsföring kan ske i läkemedelsbranschen. För att utreda detta har en fallstudie på bioteknikföretaget Serono Nordic utförts. Ett delsyfte med uppsatsen var att på uppdrag av Serono Nordic utvärdera en enkät. Den riktade sig till barnmorskor och sjuksköterskor inom IVF i Sverige och behandlade deras kompetens och arbetsinnehåll. De metoder som användes för datainsamling var intervjuer, observationer och en enkätundersökning. Intervjuerna som genomfördes behandlade Serono Nordics marknadsföring och de observationer som skedde på IVF-kliniker genomfördes för att få en ökad förståelse för infertilitet och dess behandling. Marknadsföring inom läkemedelsbranschen går huvudsakligen ut på att skapa långsiktiga relationer med sina kunder. Läkemedelsrepresentanter ingår som en viktig del i denna process. Den personliga kontakt som de bygger upp med kunden har en positiv inverkan på kommunikationen vilket underlättar informations- och kunskapsutbytet. Andra viktiga faktorer för läkemedelsföretagen i detta relationsutbyte är att hålla en låg personalomsättning och att erbjuda aktiviteter utöver den huvudsakliga kontakten. Enkätundersökningen som genomfördes var ett sätt för Serono Nordic att ytterligare stärka den relation de har till en av sina kundgrupper. Denna undersökning hade främst ett marknadsföringssyfte och företaget var inte i första hand intresserade av resultatet av enkätundersökningen.

Résumé :

The aims of this report are to investigate whether a new specimen is suitable for shear testing and to investigate the shear properties of Nordic glulam CE L40c. A total number of 56 shear tests were carried out. The specimens were modelled numerically and tested in the laboratory using video extensometry to measure surface strains. Approximately 40 % of all specimens produced a nice shear surface at failure. Practically all specimens formed two vertical cracks along the sides of the shear plane. These cracks had their origin from areas along the cuts where concentrations of tension perpendicular to grain were observed in results from numerical analysis and laboratory testing. The characteristic shear strength of CE L40c, f_(v,g,k), was estimated between 2.6 MPa and 3.6 MPa, depending on specimen size. The average 5-percentile of the stiffness, G_(g,05), was estimated approximately 970 MPa.

... the public building is not an abstract symbol, but partakes in daily life, which relates to what is timeless and common. The objective of this thesis was to design a new town hall for Norwich, Vermont. The design approach was based on the thought that one can successfully design a building for a diverse and changing group of people that embodies some shared conception of what their town is and what it will be. It was developed in a way that tried to reflect Norwich's unique physical characteristics, way of life, and manner of governance, while incorporating the author's desire to make an architectural statement that synthesizes local traditions and modem techniques. The actual form of the building was further influenced by its prominent corner site, the programmatic requirements, and the organizational relationships of the various parts.

Résumé :

Colour and appearance of hardwood are of great importance for the interiorand furniture industry. The widespread use of transparent surface treatmentand a fashion that prescribe light colour on many species, means that deviationfrom the ideal have considerable impact on the industrial operations. Kilndrying is generally regarded as the process that has the greatest impact on thecolour of Nordic hardwood species. The lack of satisfactory explanation modelsfor many types of discoloration, however, complicates the control of the dryingprocess.This thesis is an attempt to increase the knowledge of which factors thatcontrol the appearance of some commonly found discolorations associated withdrying of beech, birch and oak. The main focus is on convection drying but alsothe influence of timber storage, pre-steaming and press drying has beeninvestigated for individual species. The studies have been conducted ascomparative studies based on design of experiments in which the colour wasdetermined using a colorimeter.Results show that reddish and dark discoloration of beech and birch duringconvective drying is mainly dependent on the temperature and time of exposurewhen the local moisture content exceeds the fibre saturation point. Theconversion of naturally occurring substances in birch into coloured compoundsis not due to active precursors created at high moisture content levels duringthe subsequent drying at low moisture content levels. Interior grey stain inbeech is caused by slow initial drying at low temperatures. Log storage in coldwinter and spring climate does not cause discoloration in beech. Birch becomeslighter when press-dried at high temperatures, resulting in a colour comparableto that of traditionally kiln dried wood. Steaming of oak before kiln dryingreduce the presence of brown discoloration, a general darkening of the woodoccurs at temperatures above 50°C.

As well for the sacramental and anthropological and philosophical concepts, cosmology, cosmogony and theodicy concepts in medieval thinking. Julian of Norwich is an anchoress who lived c. 1343 - c. 1413, and wrote two versions of her visions known as ‘Revelations of Divine Love’ popularly called Short Text and Long Text.
O texto a seguir é uma Dissertação de Mestrado da Faculdade de Teologia da Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul sobre a Maternidade de Deus em Juliana de Norwich, em três atos: Maternidade na Criação, Maternidade na Encarnação e Maternidade na Graça. O texto resgata a importância do pensamento místico de Juliana no contexto do século XIV e sua atualidade na eclesiologia, soteriologia, doutrinas da criação, imago dei, teologias sacramental, antropo-filosófica, conceitos de cosmologia, cosmogonia e teodicéia do pensamento medieval. Juliana de Norwich foi uma anacoreta, que viveu entre 1343 a 1413 aproximadamente e escreveu duas versões de suas visões chamadas de Revelações do Amor Divino comumentemente chamadas de Texto Curto e Texto Longo.

Résumé :

Scotland’s Future, The Scottish Government’s guide to independence proposed cooperation with the Nordic Council amongst multiple external relations objectives, a continuation of references by independence supporting elites to the region that stretch decades. Closer cooperation with Norden as pronounced in the paper implies that the Nordic Council serves at least two functions, firstly, a basis for fostering a rejuvenated Council of the British Isles based on the Nordic Council framework (Qvotrup, 2009; Bogdanor, 2009), and secondly, formal political and societal union with the Nordic region (Bailes, Þórhallsson and Johnstone 2013). Both functions permeate from the rejection of Scotland’s current union with rUK, and SNP rhetoric of ‘independence within Europe’ suggesting that senior politicians have no qualms in leaving one union for another. Scholarly references tend to narrow on discourse linking independence to the creation of a Nordic welfare model with little attention to formal regional unification through the Nordic Council. This thesis therefore studies the independence movement’s use of Norden and explores both the context and purpose of Scottish-Nordic articulations. It finds that most political groups sympathetic to independence desire cooperation with Norden but not to the detriment of future relations with rUK in the event of independence. The use of Norden is not solely a desire to replicate Nordic models of welfare as many scholars argue, but rather, Norden invokes a political and societal partner that emphasises the movement’s progressive ambitions. The pursuit of Norden as a union ultimately stems from the collapse of the UK’s welfare union and the damaging effects of a unitary and confined constitutional system, meaning that the political elite favour a societal and political approach to union like that of Norden and for some elites, an actual political and societal union with the region.

Résumé :

This paper studies the relationship between e-commerce diffusion and number of local establishments in the Nordic regions. The analysis is built upon a model which specifies an industry model with consumers search costs buying from heterogenous producers by Goldmanis et al (2010). E-commerce technology features, such as price comparison websites, have dramatically lowered consumers’ search costs in the online market. Regressions will be tested on the retail sale of three different sectors: food and tobacco, information and communication equipment, and cultural and recreation goods sectors. The results will be compared to the total retail sale sector, and towards the online-only retail sector. Many jobs are on the line if the trend continues to close down local retail stores, and this paper will give an update on where the number of local retail establishments are heading for both policymakers and firm management.
Den här studien undersöker sambandet mellan e-handels påverkan på antal lokala varuhandel butiker i nordiska regionen. Analysen bygger på en modell som specificerar konsumenters sökkostnader inom en industri som köper från heterogena producenter av Goldmanis (2010). Prisjämförelse hemsidor har drastiskt sänkt konsumenters sökkostnader efter det lägsta priset för en given vara inom e-handel. För att undersöka hur lokala butiker har påverkats kommer regressioner att genomföras för att testa sambandet mellan ökad e-handel och antalet lokala butiker inom industrierna mat och tobaks, IT och kultur. Resultaten kommer att jämföras med den totala handeln för all varuförsäljning, samt mot e-handeln. Många jobb kan komma att försvinna inom en snar framtid om trenden hos företag fortsätter att stänga lokala butiker. Den här studien kommer att ge en uppdaterad bild hur det ser ut för antalet lokala butiker i den nordiska regionen som kommer att vara användbart för beslutsfattare och ledningen inom företag som verkar inom varuhandel.

Résumé :

During the last decade there has been an increase in renewable energy companies. At the same time, propositions have been put forward worldwide in order to restrict the possibilities for expansion for energy companies with their focus on oil and gas. This study aims to analyse the potential spillover effects between oil and renewable energy stocks on the Nordic Stock markets in order to explain how these events might affect investors abilities to predict potential gains in the markets. Spillover effects are characterized by seemingly unrelated events in one market having an impact on another. Similar studies have been conducted in countries that have a large dependency on oil as their means of energy. However, with the Nordic region being on the forefront when it comes to renewable energy globally, the aim was to see if there would be similar effects between the different sectors between different countries. The study utilized Market Capitalization based indexes for both types of stocks and examined the correlations between them during different time periods. This in order to find trends related to different time periods that could open up for different investment opportunities depending on the user. As the study showed, there were significantly negative correlations between the indexes in favour of the renewable market. However, these correlations were not true for all time periods within the study and could therefore not be confirmed as a definite result.

Texte intégral

Résumé :

This thesis argues for the centrality of incidental music in early twentieth-century music history, based on a study of Swedish and Finnish theatre music between 1908 and 1926. The central claims made are firstly, that incidental music is an integral part of music history in this period, supporting a narrative about modernity that does not focus exclusively on "high art" concert music. Second, the Nordic countries were part of a cross-continental discourse concerning modernity that did not revolve solely around, or stem from, central European capital cities such as Vienna or Paris. Third, dramatic literature was fundamental to the development of twentieth-century music in Sweden and Finland. Through an examination of productions with music by Jean Sibelius (Svanehvit, 1908, and Scaramouche, 1924), Wilhelm Stenhammar (As You Like It, 1920), and Ture RangstrÃ¶m (Till Damaskus III, 1926), the thesis demonstrates that the early 1900s in these countries were characterised by stylistic plurality. For the first two decades of the 1900s, when Sibelius composed the majority of his works, multiple modes of expression where referred to as 'modern' with no clear hierarchy between them. By the 1920s, however, 'modernism' was emerging as a term consistently used to refer to atonality and concurrent theatrical styles dominant in central Europe. Rather than adopt these stylistic languages, Stenhammar and Rangström used 'modernism' as a category to define themselves against, presenting themselves as modern but not modernist composers.

Resumo: Utilizando a implementação do método da coordenada geradora discretizada nos orbitais atômicos, conjuntos de bases adaptados ao pseudopotencial de caroço SBKJC (conjuntos GBSMCS) foram desenvolvidos, validados e utilizados no estudo de possíveis efeitos de solvatação do tetraidrofurano sobre um mecanismo modelo de Suzuki-Miyaura. As metodologias de validação adotadas para os conjuntos GBSMCS foram os cálculos teóricos da afinidade por próton de sistemas atômicos e moleculares, iônicos e neutros, das entalpias de liquefação de alguns solventes orgânicos rotineiros e das entalpias de hidratação de 29 compostos orgânicos diversos. Nas etapas de validação, observou-se de uma maneira geral, uma boa relação entre custo e benefício na utilização dos conjuntos de bases GBSMCS, obteveram-se desvios médios por volta de 0 até 20 kJ.mol, nas propriedades estudadas. Com as metodologias propostas neste trabalho e com a utilização dos conjuntos GBSMCS, determinou-se o perfil potencial da reação modelo de Suzuki-Miyaura tanto em fase gasosa como em fase solvatada de tetraidrofurano. Não se observou efeitos significativos nas estruturas dos estados estacionários caracterizados e nem nas DrG para as etapas de adição-oxidativa, transmetalação, eliminação-redutiva e isomerização. Contudo, observou-se que há efeitos consideráveis de solvatação para as espécies individuais. As etapas de adição-oxidativa e de eliminação-redutiva apresentaram-se como sendo etapas exergônicas e a etapa de transmetalação como sendo uma etapa endergônica tanto em fase gasosa como em tetraidrofurano. Abordou-se um mecanismo associativo em todas as etapas principais reacionais, contudo inferiu-se que a etapa de transmetalação tenha possíveis rotas mecanísticas dissociativas iônicas que serão estudadas em trabalhos futuros
Abstract: Using the implementation of the discretized generator coordinate method in atomic orbitals, atomic basis sets adapted to the pseudopotential core SBKJC were developed ( GBSMCS ), validated and used to study possible effects of tetrahydrofuran¿s solvation over a model Suzuki-Miyaura¿s mechanism. The methodologies adopted for the validation of GBSMCS basis sets were the theoretical calculations of proton affinities of atomic and molecular, ionic and neutral, systems, the liquefaction enthalpies of some common organic solvents and the hydration enthalpies of 29 organic compounds. In the validation steps a good relationship was abserved between cost and benefit in the use of GBSMCS basis set, average deviations around 0 to 20 kJ.mol for the properties studied. Applying the methodologies proposed in this research and using the GBSMCS atomic basis sets, the potential profile of the Suzuki- Miyaura¿s model mechanism was determinated in the gas and tetrahydrofuran phases. No significant tetrahydronfuran¿s solvation effects were observed for molecular stationarys state structures, neither for DrG for oxidative- addition, transmetallation, reductive-elimination and isomerization reaction steps. However, some strong solvation effects were observed for individual species. The oxidative-addition and reductive-elimination reaction steps were characterized as exergonic steps, but transmetallation reaction step was presented as an endergonic step, both in the gas and tetrahydrofuran phases. This work approaches an associative mechanism for all main reaction steps; however, we inferred that the transmetallation reaction step could have some ionic pathways and should be studied in future works

Résumé :

I denna pro gradu-avhandling undersöks kulturella drag i läroboksserier i svenska och franska. Det studeras hurdana kulturella drag böckerna innehåller och antalet kulturella belägg räknas. Som material används bokserien Magnet samt bokserien Voilà!. Bokserierna jämförs med varandra samt det undersöks om böckerna presenterar kulturella drag på ett stereotypiskt sätt. Med hjälp av kursbeskrivningar utredas om böckernas innehåll motsvarar krav som nämns i läroplansgrunderna. Avhandlingens metod är huvudsakligen kvalitativ och belägg presenteras i vissa kategorier. Undersökningen har kvantitativa drag, eftersom antalet kulturella belägg räknas. Avhandlingen kan även betraktas som en kontrastiv innehållsanalys, eftersom två bokserier jämförs med varandra. Resultatet är att bokserien Magnet innehåller mer kulturella belägg än bokserien Voilà!. Det finns inte några stora skillnader mellan antalet belägg som hittades i bokserierna, utan båda bokserier presenterar kultur på ett mångsidigt sätt. Kategorin Geografi innehåller mest kulturella belägg i båda böckerna medan hänvisningar till idrott och traditioner förekom mindre ofta. Både Magnet och Voilà! presenterar kultur på ett neutralt sätt, men böckerna innehåller några stereotyper. Avhandlingens forskningsresultat kan utnyttjas när nya läroboksserier planeras. Genom att jämföra antalet belägg mellan olika kategorier är det möjligt att tillägga information gällande teman som inte behandlas tillräckligt mycket samt utelämna stereotypiska hänvisningar. På basis av resultaten kan nya läroboksserier utvecklas så att de motsvarar bättre krav som nämns i läroplansgrunderna för gymnasiet
Tässä tutkielmassa tutkitaan kulttuurisia piirteitä ruotsin ja ranskan lukiokirjoissa. Tutkimus keskittyy siihen, millaisia kulttuurisia piirteitä kirjat sisältävät, minkä lisäksi löydösten määrä lasketaan. Tutkimusmateriaalina käytetään kirjasarjoja nimeltään Magnet ja Voilà!. Kirjasarjoja verrataan toisiinsa, ja tutkitaan esittelevätkö ne kulttuuria stereotyyppisesti. Kurssikuvausten avulla otetaan selvää siitä, vastaako kirjojen sisältö opetussuunnitelman perusteissa nimettyjä vaatimuksia. Tutkielmassa käytettävä tutkimusmenetelmä on pääosin laadullinen, ja löydökset esitellään omissa kategorioissaan. Tutkimuksessa on myös kvantitatiivisia piirteitä, sillä kulttuuristen löydösten määrä lasketaan. Lisäksi tutkimus voidaan katsoa kontrastiiviseksi sisällönanalyysiksi, sillä kahta eri kirjasarjaa vertaillaan keskenään. Tutkimuksen tulos on, että kirjasarja Magnet sisältää enemmän kulttuurisia löydöksiä kuin kirjasarja Voilà!. Kirjojen löydösten lukumäärässä ei ole havaittavissa suurta eroa, vaan molemmat kirjasarjoista tuovat kulttuurin esiin monipuolisesti. Kategoria Maantiede sisältää eniten löydöksiä, kun taas urheilu ja perinteet saavat vähemmän huomiota kirjoissa. Sekä Magnet että Voilà! esittelevät kulttuuria neutraalilla tavalla, vaikkakin molemmat kirjasarjat sisältävät joitain stereotyyppejä. Tutkielman tuloksia voidaan hyödyntää uusia oppikirjasarjoja suunnitellessa. Vertaamalla löydösten määrää eri kategorioiden välillä on mahdollista lisätä tietoa aiheista, joita ei käsitellä tarpeeksi kirjoissa, sekä jättää pois stereotyyppisiä viittauksia. Tutkimustulosten perusteella uusia oppikirjasarjoja voidaan kehittää siten, että ne vastaavat paremmin lukion opetussuunnitelman perusteissa määriteltyjä vaatimuksia

Résumé :

Syftet med denna pro gradu-avhandling är att undersöka i vilken mån och hur nekrologer skrivna om män och kvinnor skiljer sig från varandra innehållsligt och språkligt. Därtill undersöker jag hur män och kvinnor gestaltas i nekrologer och vilka eventuella funktioner nekrologer har. Jag tillämpar Sullivans (1993) presentation av epideiktiska texters funktioner i analysen för att ta reda på om det kan medföra nya perspektiv i förståelsen av nekrologer att betrakta dem som epideiktiska texter. Basmaterialet för undersökningen består av 38 svenska nekrologer som har publicerats i Finlands största svenskspråkiga dagstidning Hufvudstadsbladet år 2012. I avhandlingen betraktas nekrologer ur ett diskursanalytiskt perspektiv och som analysteknik används induktiv innehållsanalys. Utgående från det undersökta materialet har innehållet i nekrologerna delats i 13 teman som alla förekommer i nekrologer om både kvinnor och män. När hela materialet betraktas framstår arbete som det viktigaste temat i nekrologerna oberoende av kön men när man betraktar enskilda texter förekommer det stor variation i hur brett de olika temana behandlas. I nekrologer om män förekommer det betydligt mer positiv utvärdering av huvudpersonernas insatser i livet än i nekrologer om kvinnor, där det ges mera utrymme för temana familj och studier. I materialet hänvisas det oftare till kvinnor än till män med släktskapsbetecknande personord. De yrkesbeteckningar som används om män och kvinnor i nekrologerna är neutrala. I materialet skildras huvudpersoner oberoende av kön med egenskaper som skicklig−kunnig, vänlig, arbetsam−bestämd, glad−positiv eller social−omtyckt. Den oftast nämnda personliga egenskapen hos kvinnliga huvudpersoner i materialet är anspråkslöshet, hos manliga huvudpersoner skicklighet. I nekrologerna vänds eventuella negativa personlighetsdrag eller livsskeden till det positiva. Nekrologers ursprung i antikens lovtal och epideiktiska texters funktioner av Sullivan (1993) hjälper att förstå funktionen med nekrologers positiva sätt att framställa sina huvudpersoner. De fyra funktionerna av epideiktiska texter som Sullivan (1993) presenterat går att anpassa även till nekrologer men utöver dem har nekrologer även andra funktioner. Svenska nekrologer erbjuder intressanta forskningsämnen även för framtida forskning eftersom de har forskats mycket litet jämfört med bl.a. nekrologer på engelska
Tämän pro gradu-tutkielman tavoitteena on selvittää, missä määrin ja miten miehistä ja naisista kirjoitetut muistokirjoitukset eroavat toisistaan sisällöllisesti ja kielellisesti. Lisäksi tutkin, miten miehet ja naiset konstruoidaan muistokirjoituksissa sekä mitä mahdollisia funktioita muistokirjoituksilla on. Sovellan tutkielmassa Sullivanin (1993) esittelemiä epideiktisten tekstien funktioita muistokirjoituksiin selvittääkseni, tuoko muistokirjoitusten tarkasteleminen epideiktisinä teksteinä uusia näkökulmia niiden analyysiin. Tutkimuksen aineisto koostuu 38 ruotsinkielisestä muistokirjoituksesta, jotka on julkaistu Suomen suurimmassa ruotsinkielisessä sanomalehdessä, Hufvudstadsbladetissa, vuonna 2012. Tutkimuksessa käytetään diskurssianalyyttistä lähestymistapaa ja analyysitekniikkana induktiivista sisällönanalyysiä. Muistokirjoitusten sisällöstä hahmottuu analyysissä esiin 13 teemaa, joita kaikkia esiintyy sekä naisista että miehistä kertovissa muistokirjoituksissa. Koko aineiston tasolla tarkasteltuna muistokirjoitusten teemoista tärkein on työ päähenkilön sukupuolesta riippumatta, mutta yksittäisten tekstien tasolla eri teemojen käsittelyn laajuudessa esiintyy suurta vaihtelua. Miehiä käsittelevissä muistokirjoituksissa päähenkilöiden saavutusten positiivista arviointia esiintyy selvästi laajemmin kuin naisia käsittelevissä, joissa puolestaan annetaan enemmän tilaa perhesuhteista ja opinnoista kertomiselle. Aineistossa naisiin viitataan useammin sukulaisuuteen viittaavilla nimityksillä kuin miehiin. Ammatteihin viittaavat nimitykset, joita aineistossa käytetään miehistä ja naisista, ovat neutraaleja. Aineiston pohjalta nousee esiin sukupuolesta riippumatta päähenkilöiden ominaisuuksina taitavuus, ystävällisyys, tarmokkuus, positiivisuus ja sosiaalisuus. Naisia käsittelevissä muistokirjoituksissa ominaisuuksista useimmin mainittiin vaatimattomuus, miehiä käsittelevissä taitavuus. Muistokirjoituksissa mahdolliset negatiiviset luonteenpiirteet ja elämänvaiheet selitetään parhain päin. Muistokirjoitusten yhteys antiikin ylistyspuheisiin ja Sullivanin esittelemät epideiktisten tekstien funktiot auttavat ymmärtämään muistokirjoitusten positiivista tyyliä ja sisältöä. Sullivanin esittelemät neljä epideiktisten tekstien funktiota ovat sovellettavissa myös muistokirjoituksiin, mutta niiden lisäksi muistokirjoituksilla on myös muita funktioita. Ruotsinkieliset muistokirjoitukset tarjoavat kiinnostavia aiheita tutkimukselle, koska niitä on mm. englanninkielisiin nekrologeihin verrattuna tutkittu hyvin vähän
