Abstract (sommario):

The aims of this study are to reveal the ‘method’ and ‘content’ of Ratzinger’s spiritual Christology, demonstrate how he applies method to content, and assess the validity and integrity of the resulting Christology. Chapter One offers an account of the various current critiques of Ratzinger’s Christology, which show that little attention has been paid to his spiritual Christology...

Abstract (sommario):

This study was undertaken to investigate and to propose a solution to the pastoral dilemma that faced the Catholic Church in Australia the 1990’s. The pastoral dilemma contrasted two opposing pastoral responses to the significant changes in Catholic life since the Second Vatican Council. One response reacted to the changes by interpreting them as “crises of faith”. This response determined that the decline in mass attendance, the fewer vocations to the priesthood and religious life and the disregard of the teaching authority of the Church was the result of a loss of faith. Consequently, it prescribed a return to previous values and behaviour. The other response was more difficult to determine and has been the principle work of this thesis. The second pastoral response was identified in the search for the sacred in the daily lives of the people. This search linked the changes in Catholic life to the ongoing journey of faith that has taken place. A pastoral response based on this understanding of the changes in Catholic life was seen to provide an opportunity for “all who invoked the name of Christ” to enter a deeper relationship with him and each other. This response embraced the spirit of renewal proposed by the Council. A review of religious literature published in Australia since the Council was conducted to provide an overview of the journey of Catholic life. It identified four categories of literature that displayed the most interest in the changes. Whilst the review had a particular focus on Catholics, it included other traditions. Of the four categories initially sociology of religion which attracted most interest, followed later by theological reflections and interpretations, and ultimately an interest in spirituality, or the “spirituality revolution”. The historical and biographical studies reviewed recounted the changes in Church life and remained at a lesser, but constant expression of interest. An examination of the research of sociology of religion in Australia established that the changes in religious belief and practice were influenced by environmental factors and, for Catholics, the reforms of the Second Vatican Council. The methods of sociology identified the significant areas of change, but their limited explanations of the changes did little to assist church authorities to resolve the tensions and difficulties. The limitations of statistical information about religion contributed to the pastoral dilemma. The findings of sociology increased interest in theological reflection about the influence of the changing context of society on Catholic life. These reflections endeavoured to explain the reforms of the Council, the relationship to the changes to the reforms and led to “contextual” theology which was embraced by the “Discovery of an Australian Theology”. Spirituality by the 1990s had become a popular response that purported to take the place of “organised religion” in the community. The interest in spirituality also became the key factor in the Catholic search for deeper values, and inspired a renewed sense of the spiritual in ordinary everyday life. The popular interest in spirituality was located in the tradition of Christian spirituality, and the thesis concluded that this tradition embraced the personal experience of God, as expressed in the lives of Catholics in Australia. Such personal experiences were identified and discerned to benefit of the individual and through dialogue transformed the community. The transformation, thus begun, continued in further dialogue, engaged the community, and inspired others beyond the community of the Church to believe. Therefore, the personal experience of the spiritual was authenticated by its place in the developing tradition of the Church. The Council called for individuals and communities in the Church to identify the “signs of the times” as the opportunities for renewal, and personal renewal was closely linked to communal renewal. The “search for a soul” expressed an Australian “sign of the times”. The search provided the opportunity for many people to embark on a journey that led to personal and communal renewal or transformation. Consequently, pastoral responses to renewal based on rule and regulation, or expectations of the past, lacked the personal spiritual dimension. Thus, the title of the thesis figuratively describes the spiritual journey of Catholics from a devotional religious experience to one that seeks to find the sacred in the core values and experiences of life.

The pastoral dilemma contrasted two opposing pastoral responses to the significant changes in Catholic life since the Second Vatican Council. One response reacted to the changes by interpreting them as 'crises of faith'. This response determined that the decline in mass attendance, the fewer vocations to the priesthood and religious life and the disregard of the teaching authority of the Church was the result of a loss of faith.

Abstract (sommario):

This essay will revolve around the critical reception of Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness. The focus will be on three primary sources: firstly, the early critical reception and how the novella was received when it was originally published in 1902, secondly, Chinua's famous critique in 1977 when he called Conrad a racist and condemned both the author and the novella, and thirdly, Said's defence and contextualization of Conrad’s novella in 1992. The essay will explore how the critics have been influenced and from what standpoints they have entered into the debate on Conrad and show how the discussion has changed over time. Furthermore, it will show that the early responses ignore the ‘race’ aspect because ‘race-thinking’ was seen as something natural. It will also explain why Achebe might feel so strongly against Conrad. He is after all fighting for a strong African identity after the colonies gained their independence. Said defends and contextualizes Conrad as a creature of his time. Finally, the essay will discuss and contrast the critics, concluding that each critique is highly influenced by the time-period in which it was written.

Abstract (sommario):

For centuries Western sensibilities have been governed by an assumption that imagination is an exclusively human faculty, independent of the phenomenal world. This dissertation explores a view, long elaborated in mythologies and artistic traditions of pre-modern cultures, that phenomenal reality is the template of imagination, that terrestrial and celestial elemental forces are continuous with the mind, and that meaning in artistic practice is derived from a reciprocal exchange with the world in which we live.

This dissertation revives a traditional view of the heart as the seat of a continuous circulation of mind, imagination, and the world. In endeavoring to recover the eclipsed intelligence of the heart, this study argues that both the thought and perception of the heart are primarily metaphorical, which necessarily makes them essential in humanity’s unceasing exchange with the greater community of beings.

This dissertation demonstrates that imagination and artistic practice are inseparable from the environment, and that a study of pre-modern artistic traditions broadens an ecological understanding of the web of relationships between living beings and the environment that sustains them. Three traditions of painting disclose varying human orientations within the world: Navajo sandpainting, Chinese landscape painting, and Western European painting since the fourteenth century. Navajo sandpaintings are made at times when disorder and sickness prevail in order to restore balance in the relationship between the human community and primordial forces embodied in the landscape. Chinese landscape painting is a visual contemplation of the interwoven place of humanity within the perpetual change and transformation of heaven, earth, and sentient beings. Western painters in the fourteenth century departed from pre-modern approaches to painting when linear perspective was introduced as a way to fix a perception of the phenomenal world that was primarily optical, rather than visionary. The perception promoted by this method, based on an orientation that is both dualistic and literal, eventually ran its course, giving way to the introduction of more interactive approaches to artistic practice and perception by twenty-first century artists.

Testo completo

Abstract (sommario):

The manuscripts and published editions of the sacred choral works by Belgian composer Joseph Jongen sacred choral music were collected and listed, detailing the discernable pertinent characteristics of each work. Jongen is predominantly known for his organ works, but his choral works constituent a worthy contribution to the vocal music repertoire, especially his Mass, Op. 130. Jongen's music reflects the Impressionistic style while stemming from the school of César Franck. Choral directors and other musicians interested in Jongen's sacred choral works can use this work when exploring new repertoire. A short overview of Jongen's life is included based upon the information given in John Scott Whiteley's comprehensive book, Joseph Jongen and His Organ Music. The conductor's analysis provides a complete description of the Mass, Op. 130 with rehearsal and performance considerations. Phrase analysis graphs enhance the written analysis, and a discography of Jongen's sacred choral music completes this work.

Resumo: A SCA3/MJD é a ataxia hereditária mais freqüente em nosso meio e apresenta sintomatologia bastante variada, incluindo aspectos motores e não - motores. Dentre estes, ressaltamos a disfunção autonômica, achado pouco estudado e muitas vezes subestimado nestes pacientes. Neste estudo tivemos por objetivos: 1. determinar a frequência e a intensidade das manifestações autonômicas na SCA3/MJD; 2. avaliar se a disfunção autonômica envolve o sistema simpático e/ou o parassimpático; 3.determinar se existe correlação entre as manifestações autonômicas, parâmetros genéticos e clínicos; e 4. verificar se existe correlação entre as manifestações autonômicas e o envolvimento do sistema nervoso periférico. Para isso realizamos uma avaliação clínica e eletrofisiológica em 40 pacientes com confirmação molecular da doença e 38 controles saudáveis pareados por idade e sexo. Ambos os grupos foram submetidos a exame clínico, incluindo o uso da escala SARA (Scale for the Assessment and Rating of Ataxia), o questionário SCOPA-AUT (Scales for Outcomes in Parkinson's Disease - Autonomic Questionnaire), além da aferição da pressão arterial nas posições supina e ortostática. Também realizamos o estudo da variabilidade da frequência cardíaca no repouso, no desafio ortostático (razão 30:15), durante a manobra de Valsalva (índice de Valsalva) e na respiração profunda (razão E:I). Realizamos ainda a análise espectral dos intervalos RR no repouso e a resposta simpática cutânea. As queixas mais frequentes dos pacientes relacionam-se aos sintomas do controle urinário, cardiovascular e sudomotor. Observamos diferença significativa na média dos intervalos RR em repouso dos pacientes em relação aos controles (811,8 x 933,4 ms; p=0,001). A análise da razão 30:15 também mostrou diferença significativa entre os dois grupos (1,10 x 1,15; p=0,038). Já o índice de Valsalva e a razão E:I não mostraram diferença significativa (p=0,373 e p=0,08). A análise espectral mostrou diferença significativa entre os grupos, em relação ao LFPA (poder de baixa frequência), com média de 23,6 x 43,3 ms² (p<0,001), e ao HFPA (poder de alta frequência), com média de 28,8 x 54,4ms² (p<0,001). Obtivemos a frequência de 30% de disautonomia cardiovascular e 45% de disautonomia simpática sudomotora nos pacientes com SCA3/MJD. Verificamos envolvimento tanto do simpático quanto do parassimpático. Não observamos correlação entre as manifestações autonômicas e parâmetros genéticos (tamanho da expansão CAG) ou clínicos, mas encontramos correlação entre disfunção autonômica simpática sudomotora e o envolvimento do sistema nervoso periférico
Abstract: SCA3/MJD is the most frequent autosomal dominant ataxia worldwide and characterized by a variety of symptoms, including motor and non-motor manifestations. Autonomic dysfunction has been described in SCA3/MJD, but there are only small studies and several important questions remain unanswered. In this study we had the following objectives: 1. To determine the frequency and the intensity of the autonomic manifestations in SCA3/MJD. 2. To evaluate whether the autonomic dysfunction compromises the sympathetic and/or the parasympathetic system. 3. To identify possible correlations between the autonomic manifestations, genetic and clinical parameters. 4. To verify whether there is correlation between the autonomic manifestations and peripheral nervous system damage. We have thus performed clinical and electrophysiological evaluation of 40 patients with molecular confirmation of SCA3/MJD and 38 healthy controls matched by age and gender. In the clinical study we used the SARA scale (Scale for the Assessment and Rating of Ataxia), the SCOPA-AUT questionnaire (Scales for Outcomes in Parkinson's Disease - Autonomic Questionnaire), and we measured blood pressure in supine and orthostatic positions. We also studied the heart rate variability at rest, during the orthostatic challenge (30:15 ratio), during the Valsalva maneuver (Valsalva index) and deep breathing (E:I ratio). We included in our study the spectral analysis of the RR intervals at rest and the cutaneous sympathetic response. The most frequent complaints in our patients are related to urinary, cardiovacular and sweat control. We found significant difference of the mean RR intervals at rest between patients and controls (811.8 x 933.4 ms; p=0.001 respectively). The 30:15 ratio was also different between the two groups (1.10 x 1.15; p=0.038 respectively). The Valsalva index and the E:I ratio were similar between the groups (p=0.373 and p=0.08). Spectral analysis presented distinct results in patients and controls, related to LFPA - low frequency power (p<0.001) and to HFPA - high frequency power (p<0.001). We found cardiovascular and sympathetic sweat disautonomia in 30% and 45% of the patients with SCA3/MJD, respectively. We found evidence of both sympathetic and parasympathetic dysfunction. We did not find correlation between autonomic manifestations and genetic (CAG repeat length) or clinical parameters, but we found correlation between sympathetic sweat autonomic dysfunction and peripheral nervous system damage

Efter att hagenomfört dessa närläsningar är min slutsats att Conrads huvudsakliga avsikt var att skildaden mänskliga moralens förfall genom den ondskefulla girigheten. Det är denna girighet somhan definierar som det mörka i en människas hjärta. Genom framställningen av Kurtz visarhan exempel på detta samt hur farlig en skicklig retoriker kan vara.

Testo completo

Abstract (sommario):

The purpose of this essay is to investigate how Joseph Conrad has used animal imagery and religious symbolism in “Heart of Darkness,” and determine if these tools are somehow linked to the theme of the story. Close reading has been applied in order to be able to go through the entire story in search of these often well-hidden tools. Considering the fact that the story in focus of the analysis is believed by some, including myself, to be a long short story rather than a short novel, this method of approach has proved to be highly useful. First a discussion about a possible theme in “Heart of Darkness” is presented, followed by a brief comment on Conrad’s personal life philosophy and view on the use of symbolic devices in literary works. In order to determine the differences between symbols and imagery, as well as theme, subject and topic, a short discussion of terminology has been included.

Much of the discussion in the analysis relies heavily upon articles and books by critics who have focused exclusively on symbolism and imagery in “Heart on Darkness” and other works by Conrad. The scholarly names worth mentioning in connection with the discussion about animal imagery are Olof Lagercrantz, John A. Palmer, and Samir Elbarbary. The critics Anthony Fothergill and Cedric Watts explore religious symbolism in general, whereas P.K. Saha and Rita A. Bergenholtz focus on particular aspects of it, such as Buddhism and Greek mythology.

The analysis section is for the most part a combination between my own personal interpretations of “Heart of Darkness” and those made by others. It is divided into two major sections, Animal Imagery and Religious Symbolism. The latter, furthermore, comprises two subgroups. The conclusion suggests that Conrad used symbolism and imagery as narratological tools in order to present us with the theme of morality in the story.

Abstract (sommario):

This study examines the significance of sounds and silence in Joseph Conrad’s novella Heart of Darkness (1902). The importance of visual effects has repeatedly been analyzed and therefore, it is high time to explore the text from an auditory perspective. By comparing and contrasting Victorian city sounds to sounds in the wilderness, I show that the urban and rural worlds have a great deal in common. Furthermore, by deconstructing the seemingly stable binary opposition of sound and silence as well as that of civilization and wilderness, it becomes evident that they are related and depend on one another. This paper also examines noise and how it is used as a means of power. Moreover, it deals with Thomas Edison’s invention, the phonograph, as an implicit discursive device in the text. In conclusion, it is argued that the sonic environment is of high significance and should therefore not be ignored and readers must try to close their eyes in order to hear what is said.

Abstract (sommario):

Much work has been done on the relationship between fin de siècle authors H.G. Wells, Joseph Conrad, Henry James, Stephen Crane, and Ford Madox Ford. As Nicholas Delbanco explains, these writers lived closely to one another in Kent during the transition into the Twentieth Century. While scholars have stressed the collaboration between Conrad and Ford and the disagreements between Wells and James, fewer have treated the relationship of Wells and Conrad. Their most widely read works, The Time Machine and Heart of Darkness, share remarkable similarities that reveal common topical influences on both writers. Furthermore, I argue that Wells and his novella influenced some aspects of Conrad's most popular text. From a historical contextual approach, I examine the relationship between the two authors, several themes shared by the two works, and their balance between social criticism and aesthetic responses. The novels feature a movement through time and space, a divided humanity, and cannibalism. The Time Machine critiques England's socioeconomic circumstances and the Social Darwinist belief in progress, while Heart of Darkness depicts the Belgian Congo under the merciless King Leopold II. Wells and Conrad rejected the artistic labels of impressionism and aestheticism, though their novels fulfill many aims of these movements. An understanding of the Wells-Conrad friendship and fin de siècle society opens each text to interpretations from diverse areas of criticism and is key in identifying the most important elements of the novels.

Abstract (sommario):

Summary This essay examines how Joseph Conrad's novella Heart of Darkness and Hunter S. Thompson's novel The Rum Diary portray´s the effects of colonialism and neocolonialism in Africa and Puerto Rico. Using postcolonial theory, the essay shows how Conrad's and Thompson´s complex images of the Europeans and Africans, Westerners and Puertoricans stand in contrast to orientalistic and racist images of the colonial natives. The thesis discusses responsibility and guiltissues in the colonial states and analyses how Conrad and Thompson raise questions about these topics when they chose to portray the suffering among the colonial natives. Furthermore, the essay discusses how Conrad's and Thompson's many images of violence can be seen as images of a brutal reality carried out in countries marked by colonialism. Based on intertextual literary theory, and in the light of the literary journalistic genre ""new journalism"", in which Thompson was active, the essay markes out The Rum Diary's intertextual references to Conrad's Heart of Darkness. The essay argue that The Rum Diary's intertextual references to Heart of Darkness indicate to the reader that the novel belongs to a certain genre, and by this; link the novel to a literary system, codes and traditions already constructed by Conrad. The Rum Diay, that portrays the neocolonial era in the 1950's in the former U.S's colony Puerto Rico, is therefore to be understood in the light of Conrad's Heart of Darkness, even though it portrays an earlier era of colonialism.
Sammanfattning Sammanfattningsvis behandlar uppsatsen skildringar av kolonialismens och neokolonialismens verkningar i Joseph Conrads novell Heart of Darkness och i Hunter S. Thompsons roman The Rum Diary. Med utgångspunkt i den postkoloniala litteraturteorin och mot bakgrund av den historiska bilden av den koloniala världen granskar uppsatsen bland annat hur Conrad och Thompson valde att skildra kolonialistiska och neokolonialistiska maktstrukturer och samhälleliga missförhållanden. Uppsatsen granskar även kolonialismens orientalistiska och rasistiska bild av utomeuropén kontrasterat de respektive verkens komplexa skildringar av européer och afrikaner, västerlänningar och puertoricaner. Uppsatsen berör även frågan om västvärldens ansvar och skuld inför koloniernas och de forna koloniernas inhemska problematik samt belyser Conrad och Thompson framställningar av lokalbefolkningens lidanden. Vidare granskar uppsatsen våldets betydelse för kolonialismens etablering och hur de respektive verkens våldsskildringar kan ses berätta om en våldspräglad realitet i de länder som är märkta av kolonialismens verkningar. Uppsatsen belyser också The Rum Diarys litterära beröringspunkter och direkta referenser till Conrads Heart of Darkness med utgångspunkt i den intertextuella litteraturteorin och mot bakgrund av den litterära journalistiska genren ”"new journalism"” inom vilken Thompson var verksam i. Uppsatsen argumenterar för att Thompsons avsikt med de intertextuella referenserna var att indikera för läsaren om verkets genre, textens mening och sammanlänka det egna verket med det system, de koder och den tradition som Conrad sedan tidigare utstakat. Uppsatsen avslutats med ett intertextuellt perspektiv som med flera exempel visar hur The Rum Diary refererar till Conrads litterära produktion.

Abstract (sommario):

This thesis analyzes H. G. Wells’s The Island of Doctor Moreau and Joseph Conrad’s Heart of Darkness within the context of nineteenth-century evolutionary theory. I explore how Charles Darwin and Thomas Huxley used evolution by natural selection to develop differing explanations of the origins of ethics and how this impacted the place each scientist gave morality in civilization. By exploring how Huxley and Darwin understood morality to derive from the phenomena of sympathy and restrain, I illustrate how Wells’s and Conrad’s novellas interrogate these discourses of altruism.

Abstract (sommario):

Charles Jennens (1700-1773), the librettist of 'Saul', 'Messiah', 'Belshazzar', the final part of 'L'Allegro, il Penseroso ed il Moderato', and probably 'Israel in Egypt', amassed a huge library of music that forms the bulk of what is now known as the Aylesford collection. Jennens's collection of Handel's music was unique among those of his contemporaries, not only because it includes part-books, but also because it is unusually comprehensive. The dissertation focuses on his copies of the sacred oratorios beginning with 'Saul' (1739) because most of the collection was copied in the 1740s, the sacred oratorios were the works that Jennens was most interested in, and 'Saul' was his first collaboration with Handel. As many of these manuscripts have not been the focus of modern scholarly attention, I first establish how, when, and by whom each manuscript was copied, in order to achieve a greater understanding of how and when Jennens assembled his collection, and what his reasons were for doing so. This close study of the manuscripts reveals that Jennens made extensive alterations to the verbal text, the structure, and the music of several oratorios in his collection. His amendments to 'Saul' and 'Belshazzar' shed light on his collaboration with Handel; and his amendments to 'Samson' and 'Joseph and his Brethren' provide insights into his attitude to Handel in the mid-1740s, his approach to word-setting, his views on the adaptation of Scripture for oratorio, and his beliefs and commitments. Jennens was a highly educated man whose activities were informed by two deeply held, conflicting allegiances: to the Anglican Church and to the deposed Stuarts. An examination of how he harnessed Handel's music to deliver his religious and political messages leads to a richer and more profound understanding of the works, of the relationship between Jennens, Handel, and Handel's music, and of their place in the religious and political context of the mid-eighteenth century.

Testo completo

Abstract (sommario):

This dissertation carries out a study of the American pragmaticist C.S. Peirce and constructively applies his thought to a religious understanding of nature called "ecstatic naturalism," a philosophy developed by Robert S. Corrington that conjoins American pragmatism and Continental phenomenology. In this project I explore how the modality of possibility functions in the disclosure of a "divine life," that is, the life of a developing cosmos taken to be sacred in its continual processes of evolutionary growth and transformation. Possibility, found in Peirce's category of experience known as "Firstness," provides organisms with the ontological conditions required for any immediately felt qualitative experience--experience that is the site for potential religious experience. "Religious" experience here means the ecstatic contraposition of finite being before "infinite" being. I consider infinite being first as an honorific sheer availability of being (potential or possible being: becoming) and then in terms of how inquiry may reveal nature to be an encompassing infinite that locates and situates finite organisms. It is my thesis that, as it is found in Peirce's category of Firstness, possibility serves as a ground for the disclosure of this infinite, "the divine life," by enabling its presence to come forward as a feeling of the sacred-- a feeling found when inquirers muse over nature and establish beliefs about the universe in which they are situated. To the end of making these claims more concrete, I draw on figures such as the German existential phenomenologist Martin Heidegger, and the German idealist F.W.J. Schelling so as to identify how possibility may serve as a ground (Abgrund) for divine disclosure, and to identify understandings of existence that take nature to be a sacred life of φύσις (phusis), dynamically revealing and concealing before finite and situated organisms.

Esta dissertação analisa a adaptação do romance Heart of Darkness, de Joseph Conrad (2007), para o formato de graphic novel, publicada por Catherine Anyango e David Zane Mairowitz (CONRAD, 2010). A análise consiste no estudo da transição do foco narrativo, da personagem e do espaço do modo “contar” na narrativa literária para o modo “mostrar” e “contar” das graphic novels. Este trabalho de pesquisa aborda a adaptação como uma obra independente, uma recriação, conforme sugere Hutcheon (2013). A fim de explorar as similaridades entre a narrativa literária e a narrativa em graphic novel e verificar as transformações ocorridas no processo de adaptação, foram levados em consideração os estudos de Groensteen (2013; 2015) e outros autores da teoria literária e da teoria das graphic novels. A análise mostra que o trabalho de Anyango e Mairowitz recria, por meio do uso de recursos visuais e verbais, os aspectos centrais da narrativa de Heart of Darkness, destacando a história do período colonial do Congo através do acréscimo de fragmentos do relato autobiográfico presente em The Congo Diary e de elementos cartográficos, como os mapas do Rio Congo e da Colônia Belga no Congo.
This thesis analyzes the work published by Catherine Anyango and David Zane Mairowitz in 2010, which adapts Joseph Conrad’s novel Heart of Darkness (2007) into a graphic novel. The analysis of the transition of the narrative focus, characters and space from the literary narrative’s “telling mode” to graphic novel’s “telling” and “showing” modes. This research project addresses adaptation as an independent work, a recreation, as suggested by Hutcheon (2013). In order to explore the similarities between the literary narrative and the graphic novel and to verify the transformations taking place in the adaptation process, Groensteen’s (2013/ 2015) and other authors’ contributions to both literary and graphic novel theories were taken into account. The analysis shows that the work by Anyango and Mairowitz recreates through the use of both verbal and non-verbal resources the core aspects of Conrad’s novel, emphasizing the history of Congo’s colonial period by adding fragments of the autobiographical account found in The Congo Diary as well as cartographic elements such as maps of the Congo River and Belgian Congo.

The goal with the present study is to reread the work Heart of Darkness, written by Joseph Conrad, through a post-colonial perspective. First a review of the post-colonial theory was made. With the study of the writings of authors such as Edward Said, Homi K. Bhabha and Gayatri Chakravarty Spivak will be possible to comprehend the post-colonial thought. Also, some literary texts were revisited in a way that their colonialist points of view help to built a counterpoint to the post-colonial precepts. In a second moment, Heart of Darkness was analyzed in a special way, through the recovery of meaningful parts of the text that can illustrate the mistakes and understandings of the criticisms made to Conrad‘s literary text by names that emerged in the post-colonial period, such as the Nigerian author, Chinua Achebe. With this rereading we aim to perceive the true message that Joseph Conrad wanted to send by telling the story of Kurtz and Marlow as explorers in Africa.
O presente estudo tem como objetivo fazer uma releitura da obra Heart of Darkness, escrita por Joseph Conrad, através de uma perspectiva pós-colonial. Para tanto, primeiramente será feito um resgate da teoria pós-colonialista a partir do estudo dos pensamentos de autores como Edward Said, Homi K. Bhabha e Gayatri Chakravarty Spivak. Além disso, alguns textos literários serão retomados uma vez que suas visões colonialistas ajudam na construção de um contraponto para com os preceitos pós-coloniais. Em um segundo momento, Heart of Darkness será analisado de modo especial, através da retomada de passagens significativas da obra que possam ilustrar os erros e acertos das críticas que feitas ao texto por nomes que emergiram no período pós-colonial, tal qual o escritor nigeriano Chinua Achebe. Através dessa releitura, busca-se o entendimento da verdadeira mensagem que Joseph Conrad queria deixar ao contar a história de Kurtz e Marlow como desbravadores da África.

Abstract (sommario):

Comment le malaise dans la civilisation du jeune XXème siècle se "mi-dit-il" dans Heart of Darkness, Nostrama et Under the Volcano ? Qu'est-ce qui unit Conrad et Lowry si ce n'est leur rôle de révélateurs des brèches de l'histoire et du coeur de l'homme moderne ? La littérature et l'art ne nous en disent-ils pas plus sur la vérité enfouie sous les emplâtres des écritures réalistes, que les livres d'histoire ? Avec Conrad, les écrans fictionnels posés sur le Réel se mettent à bouger, pour finalement voter en éclats sous la plume de Lowry. Les va-et-vient entre littérature, art et psychanalyse font émerger des bribes sonores et visuelles desquelles se dégage un réseau de signifiance qui fait accroc et accroche chez le lecteur attentif. Mues par une musique souterraine, ces écritures de la modernité font sourdre jusqu'à la surface des textes, des fragments d'une langue d'avant le langage, cette "lalangue" (lacan) qui fait vibrer la corde sensible du lecteur ayant renoncé à la jouissance phallique, au profit d'une "écoute flottante" (Freud). Le lecteur, à son tour morcelé, voit alors éclater le cri muet lancé à la face des "non-dupes" (Lacan) errant au pays des lettres. L'autre qui n'existe pas fascine, et, par son absence, met en marche le désir et la créativité. Les pulsions scopiques et dévoratrices font alors voir et entendre l'importance des objets regard et voix pour l'analyse de ces écritures opaques, dont la dimension lyrique, "poéthique", se propage telle une onde de choc partie d'un noyau obscur. Le rayonnement de ces oeuvres met en évidence l'importance de l'art, et en l'occurrence, de la littérature qui fait voir, entendre et sentir des bribes de ce qui fait de nous des hommes encore "connectés" avec leurs émotions. C'est peut être vers une jouissance autre, non-phallique et réfractaire à toute pensée dogmatique ou idéologique qu'il faut errer, entre son et sens, avec bonheur. . .

Testo completo

Abstract (sommario):

This thesis carries out a corpus stylistic study of Joseph Conrad’s Heart of Darkness and four of its Italian translations. It investigates the role of textual patterns as building blocks of the fictional world and triggers of literary themes. It also investigates the effects of translation on the relation between textual patterns and the fictional world, and discusses the potential consequences of translational alterations on the text’s themes. Heart of Darkness is a complex and multifaceted text that deals with a multitude of themes and has been interpreted in many different ways. By offering an overview of the text’s literary reception, I foreground two major themes that emerge from the contemporary critical debate as particularly central to the discussion about Conrad and his text: “Africa and its representation” and “race and racism”. Through a keyword analysis, I establish a connection between these themes and the lexical level of the text. Adopting Mahlberg & McIntyre’s (2011) model, I group keywords into categories that reflect specific aspects of the fictional world and the thematic concerns of the text. I then select groups of keywords that relate specifically to “Africa and its representation” and “race and racism” for more in-depth examination. Specifically, I analyse how the African jungle and the African natives are linguistically represented in the text. I demonstrate that repeated lexico-semantic patterns shape these fictional representations and play a fundamental part in the interpretation of the two themes related to them. I then focus on the Italian versions and compare them in order to show the effects of translation on the lexico-semantic patterns. I show that alterations made at the linguistic level affect the interpretational level of the translations, with potential consequences for the reception of the major themes in the target context. Finally, I use computational methods to compare the original and the translations at the level of whole texts, as opposed to feature-specific comparisons. I claim that together these two perspectives provide a more nuanced understanding of the relation between source and target texts. Through this analysis, the present thesis explores how the fictional world and literary themes are constructed and conveyed in literature and in its translation. It also contributes to the critical discussion on Heart of Darkness and proposes a methodology to analyse and compare literary translations. Finally, as an interdisciplinary project, this thesis builds on the interaction between corpus stylistics and translation studies, and strengthens this relation further.

Abstract (sommario):

The following thesis looks at the male initiation motif in Joseph Conrad's The Nigger of the "Narcissus," Heart of Darkness, and The Shadow-Line from the perspective of contemporary anthropology. I argue that Conrad was not only well versed in late-Victorian science, but also used anthropological data on so-called primitive races in his fiction to challenge the covert political ideologies of social Darwinism. He recognized that new developments in Darwin's theory of evolution, which propagated widespread anxiety over the cultural and biological degeneration of Western civilization at the fin de siècle, were aligned with European imperialism and contributed to the exploitation of colonial territories. To counter the scientific studies that characterized indigenous peoples such as the Australian Aborigines as inferior races that were slated for extinction, Conrad applied male initiation rites as a subversive motif in his stories. Following the pattern first described in Arnold Van Gennep's Les Rites de Passage (1908), I analyze each novella in terms of the universal tripartite structure of initiations in which a novice is separated from the known world, enters a sacred liminal zone where he undergoes inwardly transformative ordeals, and is then reincorporated into society with an increased level of self-awareness. Conrad uses male initiations as a regenerative paradigm to contrast with the spiritual emptiness of his own modern secular civilization and to suggest that storytelling can function as a potentially restorative form of discourse.
La thèse suivante examine le thème de l'initiation masculine dans les romans The Nigger of the “Narcissus,” Heart of Darkness et The Shadow-Line de Joseph Conrad du point de vue de l'anthropologie contemporaine. J'avance que Conrad avait non seulement une bonne connaissance de la science de l'époque victorienne, mais qu'il a également appliqué dans sa fiction certaines données anthropologiques à des races dites primitives pour dénoncer les idéologies politiques du darwinisme social. Il a reconnu que de nouveaux développements dans la théorie darwinienne de l'évolution, qui propageaient une anxiété à l'égard de la dégénérescence culturelle et biologique de la civilisation occidentale en fin de siècle, pouvaient être interprétés parallèlement à l'impérialisme européen, et comme élément de justification de l'exploitation des territoires coloniaux. Afin de réfuter les théories de l'évolution qui catégorisaient les indigènes comme des sauvages inférieurs voués à l'extinction, Conrad a utilisé le thème des rites d'initiation masculine comme un moyen de subversion dans ses histoires. J'analyse chaque roman à travers la structure universelle tripartite des initiations qu'Arnold Van Gennep met en lumière dans Les rites de passage (1908); structure selon laquelle un novice est séparé du monde connu, entre dans une zone liminale sacrée où il subit des épreuves qui résultent en une transformation interne et est ensuite réintégré dans la société avec une plus grande conscience de soi. Conrad utilise les rites de passage comme un paradigme de régénération, en opposition avec le vide spirituel de la civilisation séculière caractéristique de l'époque, et comme moyen pour montrer que la narration peut fonctionner comme une forme de discours potentiellement rajeunissant.

Abstract (sommario):

This thesis focuses on Conrad's representation of space and atmosphere in the "impressionistic" works published between 1897 and 1904, notably The Nigger of the "Narcissus" (1897), "Heart of Darkness" (1899), Lord Jim (1900), and Nostromo (1904). The many conflicting statements regarding the nature of Conrad's impressionism lead one to ask two fundamental questions: What constitutes this strange and elusive phenomenon, and how does it bear upon interpretation? This thesis works towards defining the elusive quality of Conrad's writing by investigating and assessing the contribution of impressionist techniques in the creation of a pervasive space and atmosphere; secondly, it considers how the various constituent elements interact with, and complement one another to form a dominant mode of fictional space in each work; and, thirdly, it indicates the possible impact that these particular Conradian configurations of space and atmosphere might have upon the interpretation of his impressionist works. The thesis argues that the existential condition of isolatio~experienced by Conrad's heroes and narrators is a consequence of epistemological frustration and fragmentation, which, in turn, is a function of impressionist ontology. There is a definite and complementary relationship between each of these notions in Conrad's fiction. The mysterious atmosphere in his works results from the interplay between various configurations of theme, narration and description, and these novelistic elements correspond roughly with the notions of existential isolation (the dominant theme), epistemology (narrating, telling and (re)telling as a method of knowing and understanding the space in which the characters find themselves) and, lastly, the ontological dimensions of the various modes of fictional space (as realized in description). The evocation and invocation of cosmic space in The Nigger of the "Narcissus," the mapping of a dorriinant symbolic space in "Heart of Darkness," the (re)constructions of Jim's psychological space in Lord Jim, and, finally, the "transcription" and "inscription" of a mythical space in Nostromo, indicate a definite development from epistemological to ontological issues. Phrased in more theoretical terms, this development is a movement from asking predominantly epistemological questions like "How can I interpret this world of which I am a part?" "What is there to be known?" "Who knows it ... and with what degree of certainty?", to asking predominantly ontological questions, such as "Which world is this?" "What kinds of worlds are there ... and how are they constituted?". Such questions, categorized by McHale as the dominant characteristics of Modernist and Postmodernist fiction respectively, are already present in Conrad's texts, thus undermining any clear-cut division between these broad categories. Indeed, this thesis suggests that these categories are at best tenuous, and that they should perhaps be used heuristically, rather than definitively

Testo completo

Abstract (sommario):

The premise of this thesis is that the ???concrete holographic image???, a laser transmission hologram which has an object or a hologram of an object as its subject, has unique spatial and temporal properties which can suggest a plurality of tenses to a viewer. There is a lack of comprehensive analysis of the holographic representational system within art related theoretical and critical writing and a tendency to analyse individual works only in terms of generalities which apply to the concepts surrounding the holographic medium. While these form an important background for art image production, in some cases corresponding to artists works, the existing written material on the subject is inadequate as a model from which to draw the all important temporal conclusions. To date the critical reception of holograms has made no mention of acuity, the size of the viewing frustum, the depth of the image and scant mention of interference phenomena which are the intrinsic factors which I believe precipitate temporal illusions. Therefore this thesis examines the concrete holographic image in great detail on its own terms, firstly through theories of the basic image forming phenomena of interference and diffraction and secondly through the techniques of production as they have been adapted for the making of my art works. The extent of the metaphorical and allegorical potential of the spatial and temporal properties of the concrete holographic image are put to the ultimate test in a commission for St Brigid???s Church, Coogee. The Shrine of the Sacred Heart commission for St Brigid???s requires a concrete holographic image to facilitate devotion to the Sacred Heart. The Sacred Heart is not a physical thing but a complex, evolving spiritual entity with a realist pictorial history.

Abstract (sommario):

L'objet de cette thèse est d'interroger l'affirmation selon laquelle le roman à partir du XXe siècle est résolument " spatial ", en s'appuyant sur trois romans qui encadrent et traversent la période moderniste : Heart of Darkness de Joseph Conrad, Under the Volcano de Malcolm Lowry et Voss de Patrick White. Après un premier chapitre consacré à un tour d'horizon de la notion d'écriture spatiale dans la critique depuis les thèses de Joseph Frank et en passant par les analyses de Bakhtine, Todorov, Barthes et Ricoeur, deux positions critiques se dégagent : soit définir les œuvres " spatiales " comme des romans qui s'éloignent d'un modèle logico-temporel tel qu'on peut l'observer dans nombre de romans au XIXe, inspiré d'une esthétique à visée référentielle et mimétique, soit les définir par leurs caractéristiques propres qui sont celles d'œuvres dont la cohérence et la structure reflètent une logique interne et non externe. La première position est étudiée au deuxième chapitre qui porte par conséquent sur tous les avatars de la ligne logico-temporelle et leur remise en cause dans ces trois romans : la ligne logique et narrative, la ligne des origines ou téléologique, la ligne herméneutique et enfin la ligne organique. Dans le troisième chapitre, il s'agit de voir dans quelle mesure on peut parler d'une structuration à dominante spatiale dans Heart of Darkness, Under the Volcano et Voss et cette fois-ci de manière " positive " et non plus à contrario. Le paradigme de la ligne se voit remplacé par celui de l'étoilement des points de vue, des voix et des mots. Brouillage de la perspective, polyphonie et étoilement du signifiant redonnent du volume à la structuration linéaire héritée du XIXe. En dernier lieu se pose alors la question de la position du sujet (Personnage, narrateur, auteur, lecteur) dans ses rapports avec les autres, le monde, les mots et selon trois figures spatiales principales : la faille, l'entre-deux et une prédilection pour la surface.

As obras estudadas mostram a crise que atinge os protagonistas dos dois livros depois do encontro com outras culturas. Em Nove noites o outro é representado pelo índio e em Coração das Trevas pelos africanos. Em Nove noites o antropólogo Buell Quain se suicida depois de uma estada entre os índios Krahô, e em Coração das Trevas vemos a deterioração do homem branco representada pelo personagem de Kurtz. Considerado um homem notável e um altruísta na Europa, Kurtz teria se corrompido no contato com a realidade do Congo e se torna, nas palavras do narrador Marlow, um dos demônios da terra. A dissolução da personalidade e código moral do homem branco, representada pelos dois personagens, será estudada analisando a relação entre personalidade e cultura e como a falta de apoio e controle grupal desarticula valores até então considerados estáveis, assim como o contato com o outro. Esta desarticulação do sujeito causada pelo choque cultural se soma à crise geral do sujeito moderno e ao mal-estar na civilização, como descrito por Freud. A posição paradoxal do antropólogo, que se situa entre duas culturas, faz parte desta análise, do mesmo modo questões pertinentes a posição dos índios e africanos no Congo. No caso específico de Coração das Trevas trabalha-se a interseção entre a análise do sujeito, e suas implicações, e a construção do personagem de Kurtz como símbolo da violência colonial. O trabalho analisa também as semelhanças entre as duas obras, tanto temáticas como em suas técnicas narrativas e a influência da obra de Conrad nos romances de Carvalho
This dissertation studies the role of subject in literature and its relation to culture and alterity through the analysis of two works: Nine Nights by Bernardo Carvalho and Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad. This work show the crisis that the protagonists of both books faces after the encounter with other cultures. In Nine nights the Indian and Heart of Darkness by Africans represents the other. Nine nights tells the story of the anthropologist Buell Quain who commits suicide after a stay between the Indians Krahô, and in Heart of Darkness we see the deterioration of the white man represented by the character of Kurtz. Considered a remarkable man and an unselfish in Europe, Kurtz would have been corrupted by contact with the reality of the Congo and becomes, in the words of the narrator Marlow, one of the demons of the land. The dissolution of the personality and moral code of the white man, represented by two characters, will be studied by analyzing the relationship between personality and culture and how the lack of support and control of the group disarticulates values until then considered stable, as well as the contact with other cultures. The disarticulation of the subject caused by culture shock adds to the general crisis of the modern subject and the discontents of civilization, as described by Freud. The paradoxical position of the anthropologist, which is situated between two cultures, is part of this analysis, even as questions regarding the position of Indians and Africans in the Congo. In the specific case of Heart of Darkness will be studied a intersection between the analysis of the subject, and their implications, and the construction of the character of Kurtz as a symbol of colonial violence. The paper also examines the similarities between the two works, both in thematic and in narrative techniques in their work and influence of Conrad's novels Carvalho

Abstract (sommario):

This thesis deals with the possibility of the inscription of the Church of the Most Sacred Heart of Our Lord in Vinohrady to the UNESCO World Heritage List. The church is a piece of work of the well-known Slovenian architect Josip Plečnik. The church's nomination is being prepared in cooperation with Slovenia where Plečnik's churches are also aimed to be nominated to the UNESCO World Heritage List. The work is focused on evaluation of outstanding universal value based on which the church meets some established criteria that are essential for the nomination to the UNESCO World Heritage List. Moreover, it also warns about the possible impacts which are closely connected with the inscription to this prestigious list. Thus, it suggests some recommendations which could eliminate those negative consequences. The final part of the work concentrates on proposing some thematic projects that strive to connect this church to the religion tourism in the Czech Republic and in Europe. The goal of these projects is to increase the awareness of this church among the public.

The goal with the present study is to reread the work Heart of Darkness, written by Joseph Conrad, through a post-colonial perspective. First a review of the post-colonial theory was made. With the study of the writings of authors such as Edward Said, Homi K. Bhabha and Gayatri Chakravarty Spivak will be possible to comprehend the post-colonial thought. Also, some literary texts were revisited in a way that their colonialist points of view help to built a counterpoint to the post-colonial precepts. In a second moment, Heart of Darkness was analyzed in a special way, through the recovery of meaningful parts of the text that can illustrate the mistakes and understandings of the criticisms made to Conrad s literary text by names that emerged in the post-colonial period, such as the Nigerian author, Chinua Achebe. With this rereading we aim to perceive the true message that Joseph Conrad wanted to send by telling the story of Kurtz and Marlow as explorers in Africa.

Para tanto, primeiramente ser? feito um resgate da teoria p?s-colonialista a partir do estudo dos pensamentos de autores como Edward Said, Homi K. Bhabha e Gayatri Chakravarty Spivak.

Em um segundo momento, Heart of Darkness ser? analisado de modo especial, atrav?s da retomada de passagens significativas da obra que possam ilustrar os erros e acertos das cr?ticas que feitas ao texto por nomes que emergiram no per?odo p?s-colonial, tal qual o escritor nigeriano Chinua Achebe. Atrav?s dessa releitura, busca-se o entendimento da verdadeira mensagem que Joseph Conrad queria deixar ao contar a hist?ria de Kurtz e Marlow como desbravadores da ?frica.

Abstract (sommario):

Em 1946, os primeiros Missionários do Sagrado Coração (MSC) italianos chegaram em Pinheiro - MA. Nas décadas de 40 50, o quadro socioeconômico-cultural de Pinheiro era precário: população asfixiada pela pobreza e analfabetismo. Havia dois grupos escolares e algumas escolas isoladas, que ofereciam somente o ensino primário. Em 1947, Dom Afonso Ungarelli fundou o Seminário São José, destinado à formação de sacerdotes nativos para a Congregação, sendo fechado em 1950. Em seguida, os MSC fundaram a Escola Paroquial, com objetivo de instruir e moralizar as crianças pobres. Em 1952, a Escola Paroquial foi equiparada aos grupos escolares, sendo denominada de Grupo Escolar Nossa Senhora do Sagrado Coração, com mais salas de aulas, recursos didáticos e professoras normalistas, e em 1953, foi fundado o Ginásio Pinheirense, estabelecimento de ensino secundário, destinado às classes média e alta do município. Por meio de fontes bibliográficas, jornalísticas, imagéticas e da história oral, objetiva-se neste trabalho analisar a criação e inserção do Ginásio Pinheirense no contexto sociocultural da Baixada e Litoral Ocidental do Maranhão sob as seguintes categorias: representação, materialidade escolar, currículo, público-alvo, professores e trajetórias profissionais de alunos(as) egressos(as) dessa instituição. As fontes foram analisadas com aportes teóricos e metodológicos da História Cultural com destaque para o referencial de Michel de Certeau (2004, 1996,), Justino Ferreira Magalhães (2004, 1996) Roger Chartier (2002) Vidal (2009, 2005, 1990), Oscar Beozzo e Van der Grilf (2008), Dallabrida (2014, 2011, 2009), Souza (2008). Relacionaram-se a criação do Ginásio Pinheirense ao contexto das transformações econômicas, processo de redemocratização do país e de relações amistosas entre a Igreja e o Estado brasileiro. Estas relações amistosas reverberaram em acordos estabelecidos entre os MSC e o grupo político majoritário do estado do Maranhão dos anos 1950, viabilizando as ações estratégicas de reestruturação dos espaços político e religioso da Igreja Católica, por meio da educação escolar. A análise concluiu que a Igreja Católica investiu por meio dos MSC em educação escolar primária e secundária, a fim de reestruturar seu espaço de agência evangelizadora e socializadora de conhecimento, valores espirituais, morais e católicos. Agiu eficazmente no combate às demais expressões religiosas, romanizando o culto e assegurando sua soberania na sociedade brasileira e, mais especificamente, na Baixada e Litoral Ocidental maranhense.
In 1946 the first Italian Sacred Heart Missionaries (SHM) arrived in Pinheiro city, Maranhão. Between the decades of 40 and 50, the socioeconomic and cultural framework of Pinheiro was precarious: poor and illiterate population. There were two school groups and some individual schools, which offered only primary education. In 1947, Dom Afonso Ungarelli founded São José Seminary, for the formation of native priests to the Congregation, which was closed in 1950.Then the SHM founded the parish school in order to instruct and moralize poor children. In 1952, the parish school was equated to school groups, being called Nossa Senhora do Sagrado Coração School Group, it had more classrooms, teaching resources and primary school teachers, and in 1953, they founded the Ginásio Pinheirense, secondary school, for the middle and upper classes from Pinheiro. By means of bibliographic, news, imagery and oral history sources, the aim of this study was to analyze the creation and insertion of the Ginásio Pinheirense in the sociocultural context of lowlands and coastline West of Maranhão based on the following categories: representation, materiality school, curriculum, target audience, teachers and professional trajectories of students from this institution. The sources were analyzed from theoretical and methodological contributions of Cultural History with emphasis on the benchmark of Michel de Certeau (2004, 1996,), Justino Ferreira Magalhães (2004, 1996) Roger Chartier (2002) Vidal (2009, 2005, 1990), Oscar Beozzo e Van der Grilf (2008), Dallabrida (2014, 2011, 2009), Souza (2008). The Ginásio Pinheirenses creation was related to the economic contexto transformation, country\'s democratization process and friendly relationship between the Church and the Brazilian State. These friendly relationship reverberated in agreements between the SHM and the majority political group in the state of Maranhão in 1950, enabling strategic restructuring actions of political and religious area of the Catholic Church, through school education. The analysis concluded that the Catholic Church has invested in primary and secondary school education in order to restructure its evangelizing agency space and socializing knowledge, and also its spiritual, moral and Catholic values. The Catholic Church has acted effectively in combating other religious expressions and romanizing worships and ensuring its sovereignty in Brazilian society and more specifically in Maranhense Western lowlands.
