Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
A single system design study examined the impact of a Rites of Passage program upon truant, black middle school students. SETCLAE, a model Rites of Passage program was utilized as the intervention. Data were solicited via facilitator’s process notes, questionnaires, and pre and post tests. Baseline and intervention data were compared resulting in a pragmatic reduction of most subjects truancy rate. It was theorized that truant students exposed to their African-American heritage within the school system would result in the students eagerly attending school. The outcome of the program indicated the subjects improved on school attendance and arriving on time.

Baseada numa literatura densa de The Rites of Passage, de Arnold Van Gennep, esta análise investiga a forte relação entre o padrão tripartido dos ritos de passagem de acordo com Van Gennep e as vidas de dois protagonistas de Richard Wright: Bigger Thomas (Native Son) e Cross Damon (The Outsider). As peculiaridades das vidas de ambos os protagonistas foram estudadas, também, de acordo com a teoria de Houston Baker, Jr. dos "ritos do buraco /todo negro", a qual enfatiza a impossibilidade para o negro consciente de ser reincorporado à sociedade com um novo status, ou com uma nova consciência sobre a sua própria condição na vida. Os três estágios dos ritos de passagem foram também comparativamente estudados lado a lado com a teoria do ciclo do herói de Joseph Campbell.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Sociology has established frameworks for understanding the self as it relates to an array of social spaces and institutional structures - from work and family to organisations and place. However, accounts, interpretations, and readings of subjectivity and processes of self-understanding as they occur in transition, between these spaces (the self in transition), are largely missing from the sociological canon. This thesis attempts to fill that gap by looking at the way individuals construct and maintain work-life narratives on the 'edge' of (or 'in between') those institutional anchors. Based on the transitional stories of twenty individuals who underwent dramatic changes in their careers, the thesis explores the ontological and biographical implications of selfunderstanding as the outcome of transitional experience. My focus is therefore on transition as a biographical process, and how that process (re)opens new frameworks for self-understanding and intrapersonal inquiry. My emphasis is on transition; on individuals' attempts to navigate and negotiate spaces of institutional absence. In Victor Turner's analysis of 'liminal space' (1969), transitional narratives can be understood as taking place within the socio-cultural, and institutional fissures of society. They are thus peripheral to the normative frameworks within which work-life narratives occur- such as notions of 'success', or what it means to have a 'career'. On the institutional 'edge', the individuals who navigate these spaces "arc neither here nor there; they are betwixt and between the positions assigned and arrayed by law, custom, convention, and ceremonial" (furner 1969: 95). At the same time, transitional space is shaped by the socio-cultural expectations normative frameworks provide. In the wake of institutional precedence my interviewees worked through lived experience - such as bereavement, personal illness, and religious discovery- to better understand themselves and the arc of their working-lives. My interviewees' narratives undermine the adequacy and accessibility of normative frameworks for personal biography. They articulated their transitions as attempts to (re)appropriate meaning and fulfilment. Dramatic change was thereby not just a means to a new job or career, but a medium through which issues of personal identity and self-understanding would be challenged and redrawn. In turn, what it meant to 'work' was no longer the sole auspice of productive or remunerative activity, but inclusive of spiritual, political, and interpersonal considerations as well. My interviewees thus employed transitional space as a medium through which to bring together these disparate areas.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Prenant appui sur ma pratique plastique, cette thèse s’est développée en marge mon expérience subjective et vécu avec ma mère spirituelle, tout en étant ancrée dans la problématique de la période contemporaine. En ce sens, l’articulation entre mes œuvres plastiques, le patrimoine ancestral africain et l’art contemporain occidental reste un point central de médiation. De même, celles-ci s’articulent avec la magie africaine et la psychothérapie occidentale dans leur dimension thérapeutique. Ainsi donc, cette thèse intitulée « RITE ET POÉTIQUE DU DON DANS L’ART CONTEMPORAIN - Dépense, Dégoût, Destruction » a pour but d’examiner l’expression artistique du déchirement intérieur de mon histoire personnelle, développer des concepts artistiques de la pratique créatrice singulière. La première partie de la thèse situe mon œuvre poïétique dans le processus d’altérité qui mène à la naissance de concepts dans le champ de l’art contemporain, qui ont tendance à façonner la personnalité comme pédagogie d’intégration de l’apprentissage à l’individu. La seconde porte sur l’immatérialité artistique qui se révèle comme un procédé catalyseur du concept de performance. La troisième partie démontre les procédures plastiques d’aujourd’hui auxquelles l’artiste peut faire face en scrutant l’œuvre ritualisée. La quatrième est une mise en œuvre du vohou vohou comme processus de déconstruction d’une nouvelle identité artistique. Le don comme forme de re-création me permet de faire œuvre dans ma pratique picturale. C’est pourquoi, j’ai toujours revendiqué une dimension spirituelle qui apporte à l’œuvre son champ sacré. Plus proche de Michel-Ange ou de Marx Ernest par ma foi en l’art, je crée une œuvre allégorique, qui affirme efficacement la perte re-créatrice comme langage pictural dans l’art contemporainOn the basis of my practice of plastic arts, this thesis developed alongside my subjective experience lived with my spiritual mother, while staying rooted in the problematics of the contemporary era. In this perspective, the meeting place between my works of art, the African ancestral heritage and the western contemporary art stands as a central point of mediation. These meeting elements also go along with the African magic and the western psychotherapy in their therapeutic dimension. Then, this thesis entitled « RITE AND POETICS OF GIFT IN CONTEMPORARY ART - Exhaustion, Disgust, Destruction » aims at examining the artistic expression of my heartrending personal history, and developing artistic concepts of the singular creative practice. The first part of the thesis identifies my poietic work in the process of otherness which leads to the creation of concepts in the field of contemporary art, which concepts tend to shape the personality as pedagogy for the integration of learning by the individual. The second part is about the artistic immateriality which appears as a catalytic process for the concept of performance. The third part exhibits the nowadays plastic procedures the artist can meet by examining a ritualized work. The fourth one is an implementation of the vohou vohou as a process of deconstruction of a new artistic identity. Gift as a form of re-creation enables me to paint. Therefore, I always claim a spiritual side which endows the work of art with a sacred dimension. Admirer of Michel-angel or Marx Ernest through my faith in art, I create an allegorical work, which effeciently affirms the re-creative loss as a painting style in contemporary art

Thesis (MSocialWork)--Stellenbosch University, 2002.ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The purpose of the study was to establish guidelines for ethnic-sensitive bereavement counselling with Xhosa speaking people. These guidelines are specifically aimed at Social Workers who do bereavement counselling with Xhosa speaking people. In order to formulate the guidelines, both literature review and empirical studies were undertaken. The literature review consists of two chapters. In the first chapter the ethnicsensitive perspective and bereavement counselling models are discussed and attention is given to the integration of the ethnic-sensitive perspective with bereavement counselling models. The second chapter deals with death and bereavement in the Xhosa culture, the role of the Social Worker as bereavement counsellor and the knowledge, values and skills required to do bereavement counselling. Through the literature review it was established that specific knowledge of a Xhosa speaking person's bereavement process is essential for any Social Worker who wishes to do ethnic-sensitive bereavement counselling with a Xhosa speaking person. Skills and values must be tailored to the needs of the Xhosa speaking person in bereavement. During the literature review it also became clear that successful ethnic-sensitive bereavement counselling can only be done if the Social Worker is totally knowledgeable about hislher own experiences and attitudes in respect of the bereavement process as well as in respect of another culture, for example the Xhosa culture. The empirical study was done to establish the needs of Xhosa speaking people in respect of bereavement counselling. The respondents consisted of Xhosa speaking individuals who were in the bereavement process. The measurement instrument consisted of a questionnaire with quantitative and qualitative questions and these were completed by ten respondents. The sample of ten respondents were selected from amongst respondents who were available and willing to participate in the research. The findings of the empirical study pointed to the unique needs of Xhosa speaking people which must be considered during bereavement counselling with them. It was also confirmed that a Social Worker required specific knowledge of Xhosa speaking people's bereavement process in order to deliver ethnic-sensitive bereavement counselling. The finding establishes clear guidelines for Social Workers doing ethnic-sensitive bereavement counselling with Xhosa speaking people.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die doel van die studie was om riglyne vir etnies-sensitiewe rouberaad met Xhosa-sprekende persone daar te stel. Die riglyne is spesifiek gerig op maatskaplike werkers wat rouberaad met Xhosa-sprekende persone doen. Ten einde die riglyne te formuleer is 'n literatuurstudie en 'n empiriese studie gedoen. Die literatuurstudie bestaan uit twee hoofstukke. In die eerste hoofstuk is die etnies-sensitiewe perspektief en rouberaad modelle bespreek, daar is ook aandag gegee aan die integrering van die etnies-sensitiewe perspektief met die rouberaad modelle. Die tweede hoofstuk handel oor dood en rou in die Xhosa-kultuur; die rol van die maatskaplike werker as rouberader en die kennis, waardes en vaardighede wat benodig word om rouberaad te doen. Met die literatuurstudie is vasgestel dat 'n maatskaplike werker wat etnies-sensitiewe rouberaad met 'n Xhosa-sprekende persoon wil doen, spesifieke kennis van die Xhosa-sprekende persoon se rouproses moet hê. Vaardighede en waardes moet ook aangepas word by die behoeftes van die Xhosa-sprekende persoon in rou. In die literatuurstudie het dit ook duidelik na vore gekom dat suksesvolle etnies-sensitiewe rouberaad slegs gedoen kan word indien die maatskaplike werker deeglike kennis dra van sy/haar eie ervaringe en houdings ten opsigte van die rouproses en ten opsigte van 'n ander kultuur, byvoorbeeld die Xhosa-kultuur. 'n Empiriese studie is gedoen om Xhosa-sprekende persone se behoeftes ten opsigte van rouberaad te bepaal. Die respondente het bestaan uit Xhosa-sprekende persone wat in 'n rouproses was. 'n Vraelys met kwalitatiewe en kwantitatiewe vrae is as meetinstrument gebruik, en is deur tien respondente voltooi. Die steekproef van tien respondente is verkry deur doelbewuste seleksie, van respondente wat bereidwillig en beskikbaar vir die navorsing was. Die bevindinge van die empiriese studie het aangedui dat Xhosa-sprekend persone unieke behoeftes het wat in ag geneem moet word tydens rouberaad. Daar is bevestig dat dit vir 'n maatskaplike werker nodig is om spesifieke kennis van die Xhosa-sprekende persoon se rouproses te hê, ten einde etnies-sensitiewe rouberaad te lewer. Die bevindinge lig duidelike riglyne vir maatskaplike werkers by etnies-sensitiewe rouberaad met Xhosa-sprekende persone uit.

Thesis (M Social Work)--Stellenbosch University, 2008.ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Marriage enrichment was developed to equip couples with the necessary skills and knowledge to help them achieve a happy marriage. It is successful with respect to the improvement of the marriage relationship and the encouragement of marital satisfaction. The marriage enrichment programmes that were developed up till now, were developed for the use of residents of First World countries. The goal of this study was to identify farm workers’ experience of marriage and their needs with respect to marriage, in order to make recommendations with regard to elements that could be included in a marriage enrichment programme for farm workers. A qualitative research design was used, as semi-structured interviews with the help of an interview schedule were conducted with thirteen farm workers who live and work on two farms in different geographical areas around Stellenbosch. Information was gathered by separately interviewing marriage partners, in order to ensure that conversations were not influenced by the presence of the marriage partner. Participants not only consisted of legally married couples, but also couples who were involved in a long-term relationship. The literature study focused on the circumstances of farm workers in the Western Cape. It also focused on theories underpinning current marriage enrichment programmes, and discussed and described the content of selected current marriage enrichment programmes. General challenges facing couples and which are typically included in marriage enrichment programmes were also discussed. Three themes emerged during findings and conclusions of the study. These include various sub-themes arising from the alcohol abuse of farm workers, and distinctive qualities of happy and unhappy couples. Recommendations were made with regard to these themes, while the theories on which current marriage enrichment programmes were based, as well as its exercises and elements were kept in mind.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Huweliksverryking is ontwikkel om egpare met die nodige kennis en vaardighede toe te rus ter bereiking van ‘n gelukkige huwelik. Dit is doeltreffend ten opsigte van die verbetering van die huweliksverhouding en die bevordering van huwelikstevredenheid. Die huweliksverrykings-programme wat egter wel ontwikkel is, is vir die gebruik van inwoners van Eerste Wêreld-lande ontwikkel. Die doel van hierdie studie was om plaaswerkers se ervaring van die huwelik en hul behoeftes ten opsigte van die huwelik te identifiseer, sodat aanbevelings gemaak kan word ten opsigte van elemente wat ingesluit kan word in ‘n huweliksverrykingsprogram vir plaaswerkers. ‘n Kwalitatiewe navorsingsontwerp is benut, aangesien semi-geskeduleerde onderhoude aan die hand van ‘n onderhoudskedule gevoer is met dertien plaaswerkers wat woon en werk op twee plase in verskillende geografiese areas buite Stellenbosch. Onderhoude met huweliksmaats het apart van mekaar plaasgevind, om te verseker dat gesprekke nie deur die teenwoordigheid van die huweliksmaat beïnvloed kon word nie. Deelnemers het nie net bestaan uit wettiglik getroude egpare nie, maar ook paartjies wat in ‘n langtermynverhouding betrokke is. Die literatuurstudie het gefokus op die omstandighede van Wes-Kaapse plaaswerkers. Dit het ook gefokus op teorieë waarop bestaande huweliksverrykingsprogramme gebaseer is, en het verskeie geselekteerde bestaande huweliksverrykingsprogramme se inhoud bepaal en omskryf. Algemene uitdagings waarmee egpare te doen kry, en wat tipies in huweliksverrykingsprogramme bespreek word, is ook bespreek. Tydens bevindinge en gevolgtrekkings van die studie het drie temas na vore gekom. Dit sluit in verskeie sub-temas ten opsigte van alkoholmisbruik tussen plaaswerkers en die onderskeie eienskappe van gelukkige en ongelukkige egpare. Die aanbevelings is ten opsigte van hierdie temas gemaak, met inagneming van bestaande huweliksverrykingsprogramme se elemente, oefeninge en die teorieë waarop dit gebaseer is.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
When it comes to ritual ceremonies like Qing Ming, Chong Yang, Yu Lan, one will see all kinds of fascinating ritual paper offerings, ranging from the traditional to fashionable-living necessities, even though the recipients are dead. The types of ritual paper offerings can be categorized into paper materials (joss paper), bamboo-paper objects (traditional crafts), and non-bamboo framed objects (contemporary crafts). Though the life of these ritual paper objects is very short, because they are burned soon after they are made, they are designed and crafted in a very unique way.
The topic of ritual paper objects is a very interesting one; however, it has hitherto received little scholarly attention from a heritage conservation perspective. It is found that a large body of literature mentions ritual paper objects in the context of the funeral ceremony. Building on the existing studies, this dissertation will demonstrate and recognize the cultural significance of the art and craft of bamboo-paper objects in Chinese culture with reference to the Convention for the Safeguarding of Intangible Cultural Heritage (2003), and thereby suggest ways for safeguarding this traditional craftsmanship.published_or_final_version

第一章陳述周代酒禮的研究狀況。當時的酒禮的類別、內容、程序等都有很大的探討空間，但是首先要打破銘文釋讀的障礙。我提出從古文字形構的角度考察禮儀的雛形，隨即在第二章實踐。經過考察與祼禮有關的瓚、將等字的本義，勾勒字義的引申關係，用來訓釋銘文語境中的具體含義，以此為基礎來說明了瓚、將兩種事物的禮儀用途，結果得出銘文瓚字既是表示飲酒的工具也是表示獻酒的動詞，其中瓚字由於詞性變換而孳乳出「口+瓚」、「吅+瓚」的寫法，為 、 字。銘文「口+瓚」、「吅+瓚」的寫法，按辭例都表示讓人酒飲義，兩字是在「瓚」字的基礎上添加了「口」或「吅」，屬標示動詞用法的表義符號。至於祼將的將則屬於同源分化，由本指奉持的將字添加瓚形，產生了專指祼將（獻酒）的 字。第二章又牽涉到「X+某+出入/逆洀+事/將令」的辭例，X位置皆有供酒食之意，不應籠統以協助義當之，將命明顯是傳話之意。在飲食禮中設有訝者，兼任迎賓並傳達主賓之言。出入/逆洀乃形容傳命之行為，學者以為是名詞，指王的使者，非是。透過《儀禮》飲食禮儀程序的展現，可以反映這種套語所描述的實際內容。第三、四章討論「饗禮」，以主題用品劃分饗禮的類別，可以分為饗酒和饗醴兩種。在歸納銘文有「饗」字的辭例時，我發現了「饗醴」有「侑」，「饗酒」無「侑」的現象。侑是勸的意思，因飲料的種類有別，而有勸和不勸之別，反映了周初飲酒觀念對後來用酒制度的影響。類似的辭例用字上的差別未盡被揭櫫，而這些差別是還可以解決一些文字釋義的問題，例如飲、厚、懿、莤等字被討論過不少，可是還未算審諦。重新考察辭例後，可見飲不用於醴，厚、懿和醴、醫等事物有關，藉此對個別經傳文句提出新見，也進一步瞭解飲酒禮儀的內涵。第五、六章圍繞�字的本義、辭例、禮制、思想等各個方面做討論。�字形義蘊涵了飲酒行為，也是飲酒禮的基本模式，字中每一個部件，都可以在三《禮》所見的飲酒禮中找到實物，而�字包含了招待的義項，也和文獻以酒作為招待賓客的主要用品相符。 Documents from the early Western Zhou already indicate significant ideological differences between the Shang and Zhou dynasties. Instructions and commands written down in the da yu ding bronze inscription and the jiu gao ("royal mandate regarding drunkenness") chapter of the Shangshu, for example, show that the Zhou believed that the downfall of the Shang dynasty was brought on by their excessive indulgence in alcohol, and that they intended to admonish their own people for this behavior. However, the widespread use of bronze drinking vessels up until the mid-Western Zhou period suggests that this idea was only held up by the ruling elite of the early Western Zhou and did not expand throughout the entire territory. Only when the Zhou developed their own distinctive culinary and ritual culture from the mid-Western period on, bronze drinking vessels started to disappear from daily use. But the decrease of bronze drinking vessels does not necessarily mean that drinking alcohol for ritual purposes had been banned. From the mid-Western Zhou throughout the entire Eastern Zhou period characters related to these rituals--e.g. jiu酒（wine）, yin 飲 ("to drink"), xiang 饗 ("to offer food and drinks"), guan 祼 ("to pour out libation") and zan 瓚 ("libation cup")--continue to appear on bronze inscriptions and show that the use of alcohol was still an indispensable part within court meetings. Only the form, quantity and quality of the alcohol vessels and drinking habits underwent changes, but they had not been forbidden categorically. The aim of this thesis is to outline the evolution of ritual ceremonies involving the use of alcohol vessels during the mid-Western Zhou period. By this, I attempt to demonstrate that the importance of offering alcohol drastically declined during this era. One indicator for this development is the decline in offering jiu 酒 ("wine") and its replacement with li 醴 ("sweet wine"). Due to its lower levels of alcohol, a higher amount of "sweet wine" could be consumed without becoming intoxicated and was therefore more suitable in the effort to abide the instructions given by the founding fathers of the dynasty. Besides a comparison of the terms jiu 酒 and li 醴, this thesis also offers new paleographic and phonologic analyses of related characters--e.g. suo 縮 ("filter"), yin 飲 ("to drink"), hou 厚 ("richness"), yi 懿 ("fine"), zan 瓚 ("libation cup"), guan 祼 ("to pour out libation"), etc.--to contrast the ritual system as described in the old texts with the bronze inscriptions according to the shape and sound of the character as well as the actual artifact.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Cette enquête vise à préciser l'hétérogénéité des « statuts de travail », tels que définis par J. Andreau, à travers le prisme des pratiques religieuses des gens de métier en Italie romaine. Centrée sur les cités du Vésuve et sur Ostie, l'étude de la topographie religieuse, à l'échelle des espaces de travail et à l'échelle du tissu urbain, permet d'analyser la manière dont les métiers dessinent le paysage d'une cité, révélant des modes d'habiter et de travailler disparates, ainsi qu'une implication variable des élites locales et des institutions dans la vie économique. D'une économie gérée par le paterfamilias à une économie hors norme, liée au ravitaillement de Rome, les structures socio-professionnelles sont métamorphosées, les pratiques religieuses aussi. Les parallèles qu'offrent l'épigraphie et quelques dossiers archéologiques bien documentés permettent d'élargir la comparaison, dans l'espace et dans le temps, à l'ensemble de la péninsule italique, mettant en lumière des traditions locales, à l'image de cadres socio-politiques mouvants. Cette enquête anthropologique interroge la manière dont les rites s'intègrent à l'environnement et à la pratique quotidienne du métier et finalement questionne ce qui, dans la cité, fait la force des liens communautaires : est-ce le noyau familial, la vie de quartier ou encore les activités au sein d'une association professionnelle ? De la tutelle divine aux patronages humains, la pietas des gens de métier exprime clairement la multiplicité des enjeux de la religion romaine, au cœur des pratiques sociales. Les artisans et les marchands cherchent certes à protéger leurs intérêts économiques, mais c'est aussi leur existence civique qui est en jeu : festivités cultuelles, aménagements religieux et actes de dévotion participent à une construction mémorielle des communautés de travail et des groupes professionnels. C'est dès lors sa position sur l'échelle des hiérarchies socio-professionnelles ou sa proximité avec les sphères du pouvoir que l'on peut revendiquer, qu'elle soit réelle ou fantasméeThis investigation aims to clarify the heterogeneity of "work statuses", as defined by J. Andreau, through the prism of the religious practices of tradespeople in Roman Italy. Focusing on Vesuvian cities and Ostia, the study of the religious topography, on a scale of work spaces and on a scale of the urban fabric, makes it possible to analyse the way in which trades shape the landscape of a city, revealing disparate ways of living and working, as well as a variable involvement of local elites and institutions in the economic life. From an economy managed by the paterfamilias to an outstanding economy, linked to the supply of Rome, the socio-professional structures are transformed, so are the religious practices. The parallels offered by epigraphy and a few well-documented archaeological files make it possible to broaden the comparison, in space and time, to the whole of the Italian peninsula, bringing to light local traditions, in the image of changing socio-political frameworks. This anthropological investigation questions the way in which rites are integrated into the environment and the daily practice of a trade and finally questions what, in the city, makes the strength of the community links: is it the family nucleus, the life in the neighbourhood or the activities within a professional association? From divine tutelage to human patronage, the pietas of tradespeople clearly expresses the multiplicity of issues at stake in the Roman religion, at the heart of social practices. Craftsmen and merchants certainly sought to protect their economic interests, but their civic existence was also at stake: cultic festivities, religious arrangements and acts of devotion participated in the memorial construction of work communities and professional groups. It is therefore their own position on the scale of socio-professional hierarchies or their own proximity to the spheres of power that can be claimed, whether real or imagined

Liu, Yonghua 1970. "The world of rituals : masters of ceremonies (Lisheng), ancestral cults, community compacts, and local temples in late imperial Sibao, Fujian". Thesis, McGill University, 2003. http://digitool.Library.McGill.CA:80/R/?func=dbin-jump-full&object_id=84524.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
From the establishment of the Ming to the fall of the Qing (1368--1911), the social and cultural scene of the Chinese countryside was greatly transformed. Lineages became the dominant social organization in many areas. Local temples became a familiar part of the rural landscape. Local culture was increasingly exposed to the influence of regional culture and gentry culture with the proliferation of market towns, the development of the printing industry and the rise of literacy. By investigating the history of ritual specialists and their rituals in a sub-county area in southeast China, this thesis shows how these social and cultural transformations took place and how the local population experienced them. Lisheng or masters of ceremonies, the focus of this thesis, played and still play an important role in the local social and symbolic life. Either along with or in the absence of other ritual specialists, they guided the laity through ritual procedures to communicate with ancestors, gods, and the dead. These rituals, and also the related liturgical texts, were the outcome of social and cultural transformations in the late imperial period. Through a detailed discussion of the history of the three important local institutions that were closely related to lisheng and their rituals, namely, lineages, community compacts, and temple networks, the thesis shows the limitations of the elitist interpretation of late imperial cultural transformations. Cultural integration and gentrification were without doubt important aspects of these processes. However, both may have oversimplified the complexity of the processes and exaggerate the influence of high culture. Cultural hybridization, the process in which elements from different cultural traditions were synthesized into a new, constantly changing cultural mosaic, provides a multipolar, interactional, and thus more complex approach to our understanding of cultural processes in late imperial China.

Die doel van die navorsing is om vas te stel of liminale prosesse, drumpeloorgange en transformasie deur die verskuiwing van sosiogeografiese omgewing teweeggebring word. Vir die terreinverkenning van die term liminaliteit word gebruik gemaak van die teorië van antropoloë Arnold van Gennep en Victor Turner en word getoon dat die term liminaliteit al hoe meer vryelik in velde buite die antropologie gebruik word. Die toepasbaarheid van die drie fases (pre-liminaire, liminaire en post-liminaire) van die rites de passage en die heropname in die communitas word met betrekking tot die letterkunde toegelig. Die ondersoek van die konsep liminaliteit word ten opsigte van literêre karakters gedoen aan die hand van die oorsake en dryfvere wat tot liminale prosesse lei, asook die uitwerking van daardie prosesse op die geestelike instelling van die verskillende hoofkarakters in die romans ’n Ander land van Karel Schoeman, Die son kom aan die seekant op van Jeanette Ferreira, Lang skaduwees in Afrika van Connie Luyt en die ongepubliseerde roman Paul Roux van die kandidaat self. Die verskillende elemente (dryfvere, karakterisering, milieus, drumpeloorgange en transformasies) wat tot liminale situasies bydra, word behandel. Daar word tot die gevolgtrekking gekom dat die verskillende elemente dui op die roete wat na die rites de passage toe kan lei. Navorsingsartikels en essays wat die tussenruimtes en oorskryding van grense in verskillende publikasies bespreek, word gebruik om die ondersoek toe te lig. Besprekings van Louise Viljoen (Woordwerk van Breyten Breytenbach), Adéle Nel (Lykdigte en Ruggespraak van Joan Hambidge), Heilna du Plooy (Niggie van Ingrid Winterbach), Dorothea van Zyl (Vaselinetjie van Anoeschka von Meck), Marlies Taljaard (Kleur kom nooit alleen nie van Antjie Krog) is hiervoor aangewend. Daar word ook na ekspat-literatuur soos dié van Laurens van der Post, Breyten Breytenbach en Gérard Rudolf verwys. Dit is ’n vrugbare tegniek om literêre karakters vanuit Van Gennep en Turner se teorieë te ontleed. Soos wat die konsep liminaliteit toenemend gebruik en toegepas word, sal dit ook meer in die literatuur aangewend word, veral in die werk van ekspatskrywers. Wat hierdie bevindings betref, kan ’n mens begin gis oor die Afrikaanse diaspora-letterkunde wat ’n nuwe communitas vir drumpelfigure geskep het. Die gemeenskaplike kreatiewe energie in hierdie liminale sone kan as bewusmaking dien en sodoende verandering teweegbring. ENGLISH : The purpose of the research is to determine whether liminal processes, threshold crossings or transformation can be brought about by the changing of socio-geographical environment. For the exploration of the term liminality the theories of anthropologists Arnold Van Gennep en Victor Turner are used and it is shown that the term is increasingly used in other fields. The applicability of the three phases (preliminaire, liminaire and post-liminaire) of the rites de passage and the reentering of the structural realm, the communitas, is enlightened with the help of literature. The analysis of the concept liminality regarding these literary characters is done by causes and motivations that lead to liminal processes, as well as the effect of those processes on the spiritual/mental inclination of the characters in the novels ’n Ander land by Karel Schoeman, Die son kom aan die seekant op by Jeanette Ferreira, Lang skaduwees in Afrika by Connie Luyt and the candidate’s unpublished novel Paul Roux. Different elements (motivation, characteristics, milieu, thresholds and transformation) that lead to liminal phases, are discussed. It was found that the different elements indicate the route leading to the rites de passage. Applicable essays and articles regarding the liminal phases and transgression of borders in different publications are explored to explain the analysis. Research articles and essays focusing on the phases leading to the rites de passage used for this analysis are those by Louise Viljoen (Woordwerk of Breyten Breytenbach), Adéle Nel (Lykdigte en Ruggespraak of Joan Hambidge), Heilna du Plooy (Niggie by Ingrid Winterbach), Dorothea van Zyl (Vaselinetjie by Anoeschka von Meck) and Marlies Taljaard (Kleur kom nooit alleen nie by Antjie Krog). Reference is also made to the ex-pat literature of Laurens van der Post, Breyten Breytenbach and Gérard Rudolf. Applying Van Gennep and Turner’s theories for the analysis of literary characters is fruitful. As the concept liminality is used and applied increasingly, it will become more relevant in literature, especially in the work of expat writers. Regarding the findings, one can speculate about the ‘diaspora’ literature in Afrikaans that created a new communitas for threshold figures. The communal creative energy in this liminal zone can be effective as to an awakening that can bring about change.Dissertation (MA)--University of Pretoria, 2011.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
En Grèce ancienne, femmes et filles de citoyens, issues généralement des élites, accomplissaient de nombreux services religieux pour leurs communautés. Ces fonctions, observées du Vème av. J.C. au II/IIIème ap. J.C. en Grèce, Etolie, Thessalie, Epire, Macédoine, îles des Cyclades et de l’Egée et littoral Est d’Asie Mineure, se construisaient et évoluaient avec leur société. Elles permettaient aux femmes de se mouvoir dans la sphère publique, en corrélation avec leur position sociale, et contribuaient à valoriser leur parentés. Beaucoup de ces services s’inscrivaient dans une sphère féminine où le sexe déterminait les rites accomplis, établissant une certaine image de la femme que les pratiques initiatiques accomplies par leurs filles, via ces services, reconduisaient. Toutefois, tous les services religieux ne se définissaient pas par rapport à ce monde féminin, mais tous se lisaient dans un ensemble subtil où il n’est pas toujours aisé d’établir les prérogatives de chaque service par rapport aux autres. Dans cet ensemble, la prêtrise était la charge la plus prestigieuse mais les autres fonctions, désignées par des termes spécifiques exprimant l’aspect principal de la charge, n’étaient pas simplement des auxiliaires ou subalternes. Les services religieux féminins formaient un ensemble complexe, diversifié mais cependant homogène et présentant une profonde cohérenceIn ancient Greece, Thessaly, Aitolia, Epiros, Macedonia, Cyclads, Aegean’s Islands and the eastern coast of Asia Minor, citizen’s wives and daughters, stem from the élite, could carry out religious functions for their people. These functions, influenced by the evolution of the society and observed from the 5th BC to the 2nd/3rd AD, were an opportunity for women to act in the public field, according to their social status, and a way to increase the value of their relatives. Many of these offices were determined by the gender and included in a women’s world. They played a part to create a greek ideal of woman, and the initiatory rites performed by their daughters contributed to carry on this image. However, all the women’s religious functions were not in this women’s world but all formed a group in which they are closely related to each other. The priestess got the most prestigious office but the others functions, usually named by a specific term which indicate its most important sight, were not just only sub-offices. All these offices were part of a complex group with some diversity and fine distinctions and it’s not easy to understand each function and its prerogatives, but this group was still homogeneous and coherent

La musique et la danse constituent le noyau de la vie rituelle d’une confrérie au statut particulier, par rapport aux autres confréries du soufisme marocain, il s’agit des adeptes gnawa. Présenter comme les descendants d’anciens esclaves, les gnawa réconcilient dans leurs rituels des éléments mythiques qui les situent dans un entre-deux entre le licite et l’illicite, l’ici et l’ailleurs. Loin de s’achever dans des dichotomies de principes, leurs pratiques sont de fait plurielles et suggèrent un espace ou la logique communautaire est mise au service de la représentation de soi. Les transformations accélérées et les changements d’échelles qui affectent les mondes contemporains réorientent les modes d’existence des acteurs à travers des pratiques complexes et délibérées de performance, de représentation et d’action. Les éléments culturels gnawa sont mis en scène sous de nouveaux labels et poursuivent de nouveaux enjeux ou la référence culturelle masque le déni d’égalité entre les individus. Longtemps marginalisés, les gnawa sont aujourd’hui célébrés dans des espaces transnationaux qui poussent l’observateur à s’interroger sur les rapports entre sens social et liberté individuelle dans le monde contemporainMusic and dance constitute the heart of ritual life provide the center of ritual life for a friary with particular status regard to the other friaries of Moroccan Sufism, the gnawa practitioners. Exploring their connexion to slavery the gnawa performed in the ritual cultural elements that place them in a space between the legal and illegal, the here and elsewhere. However those dichotomy are flawed, their practices are various and suggest a space where the community manage a representation of themselves. The changes of scale that affect the contemporary world renew the ways of existence of social actors. This position put the terms of reconstruction and management of gnawa identity in the perspective of ‘simultaneity time’, where culture is caught in an accelerated movement of time and space. Their practice is hardly of only local interest, circulating on the global market, rebuilt by different actors, this gnawa circulation bring to the light the understanding of tradition, patrimony, identity and otherness

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Par l’étude des représentations sociales, des rituels et des gestes funéraires qui entourent l’enfant dès sa naissance, cette thèse propose une réflexion sur la place des plus jeunes dans la société grecque archaïque et classique. Durant l’Antiquité, la venue au monde révèle les logiques sociales dans lesquelles elle s’inscrit : la mère est enfin reconnue comme épouse accomplie, l’homme devient père avec les implications sociales que cela entraîne, et la famille comme l’ensemble de la cité doit valider l’arrivée d’un nouveau membre. A partir de ce constat, ce travail apporte un nouveau regard sur les représentations de l’enfant en bas âge (0-3 ans) au sein des différentes strates de la cité. Longtemps considéré comme exclu des relations sociales, le tout-petit n’a en effet jamais fait l’objet d’une étude particulière. Pourtant des pratiques funéraires spécifiques, l’existence de rituels d’intégration progressifs, ainsi que des registres iconographiques distincts, sont autant de témoignages du statut particulier d’un être en devenir, mais déjà membre de la société. Ces différents thèmes sont abordés par une approche pluridisciplinaire qui confronte l’ensemble des sources disponibles sur la petite enfance : les écrits des auteurs anciens aux regards des imagiers et aux données offertes par l’archéologie funéraire. En conclusion ce travail montre que la notion de rite de passage vient s’ajouter aux représentations et aux pratiques funéraires pour former à un véritable complexe rituel faisant de la naissance et de la petite enfance, le reflet des rapports entretenus entre les Grecs et l’écoulement d’un temps inscrit dans la logique de reproduction socialeThrough the study of social representations, rituals practices and funerary acts surrounding the young children, this thesis has offered a reflection on the infancy in the Archaic and Classical Greek world. During Antiquity, birth reveal the social mechanisms they belong to; the mother is finally considered as an accomplished wife and her role in the oikos is reaffirmed, the man becomes a father and has new social duties, and the family as well as the city has to accept the arrival of a new member. Judging from this observation, this work will shed a new light on young child (0-3 years) within the different strata of the city. For a long time, children have been considered as excluded from society because of the few mentions in literary sources. Although specific funerary practices, the existence of rituals marking the progressive integration of young ones in society, as well as a characteristic iconography, all testify of the particular status of children who already belong to the society. These themes are treated with a multidisciplinary approach that confronts all the sources on childhood: literature, iconography and funerary archaeology. In conclusion, this work proposes to show that the concept of rite of passage combined with representations and funerary practices form a ritual complex that makes birth and early childhood the true reflection of integration processes into the different circles of Greek society. This study thus aims to lead to a more general evocation of the relations between the Greeks of Antiquity and the passing of a time in the context of social reproduction

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Si les héros peuplant la mythologie grecque sont particulièrement connus, les héros historiques, eux, le sont beaucoup moins. Pourtant le phénomène dit d'héroïsation concerna de nombreux personnages. Cette étude propose de se pencher sur ces personnages à l'existence historique avérée, qui se virent reconnaître le statut de héros et qui accédant ainsi à la sphère divine bénéficièrent d'honneurs mais également de cultes. Cette étude se propose également de comprendre l'ensemble de ces rites en rapport avec les héros et l'héroïsation. Elle présente aussi l'évolution que connu ce phénomène pendant toute la période allant de l'époque archaïque au IIIe siècle ap. J. -C. mais également met en lumière les différences et les points communs entre les différentes régions et cités qui composèrent l'ensemble du monde grec. Cette étude tente également d'en apprendre plus sur l'identité de ces personnages qui pour nombre d'entre eux restent inconnus de la « grande Histoire ». Pourtant ces personnages méritent une attention toute particulière car leur étude éclaire singulièrement et permet une bien meilleure compréhension de la vie religieuse des Grecs de l'AntiquitéIf the heroes of Greek mythology are particularly well known historical figures themselves, are much less. Yet the phenomenon known as heroization concerned many characters. This study proposes to examine these characters for whom the historical existence is proven, and who had been assigned the status of heroes and thus accessing to the divine sphere benefited honors but also cults. This study also aims to understand all of these rites in connection with the hero and heroization. It also presents the evolution knew by this phenomenon during the period from the Archaic period to the third century AD. But also highlights the differences and similarities between the different regions and cities that composed the entire Greek world. This study also tries to learn more about the identity of these characters, who, for many of them remain unknown of the "great history." Yet these characters deserve special attention because their study singularly clarifies and provides a much better understanding of the religious life of the ancient Greeks

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
L’opinion moderne a souvent laissé juger la médecine scientifique comme étant la seule véritable médecine à même de guérir toute sorte de maux, tout en n’accordant pas suffisamment d’intérêt ou en mettant à une échelle nettement inférieure d’autres formes de pratiques médicales telles que la médecine magico-religieuse et/ou divine dans le monde grec ; pratiques qui se voient dénuer de toute efficacité au profit de la médecine dite scientifique. À travers notre thèse, nous nous proposerons de démontrer que ces autres formes de thérapie estimées comme secondaires méritent d’être à nouveau considérées, au moins de manière relative, avec une approche nouvelle. Grâce à l'archéologie, l'on peut attester que la Grèce du siècle de Périclès a connu des cultes de guérison impliquant des démarches religieuses préliminaires ainsi que des rites d'actions de grâce. Souvent pour multiplier ses chances de guérison, le malade pouvait à la fois faire appel aussi bien aux expériences humaines qu'à celles irrationnelles ; et le plus souvent le recours aux pratiques irrationnelles faisait la différence : l'épiphanie ou l'intervention du dieu au cours d'un rêve suffisait à guérir le malade. Ainsi naquit l'incubation au cœur de l'interrogation médicale salutaire du patient. Dans ce processus de guérison, le sommeil des pèlerins ne s'apparente en rien au sommeil ordinaire d'une nuit quelconque, et le rêve y a par conséquent une place assez particulière, un rôle crucial : il ne s'agit pas de rêves ordinaires, mais ce sont des rêves contrôlés, codifiés et manipulés par des spécialistes dans le cadre d'un usage précis, le conseil ou une thérapie. La pratique de l'incubation devient ainsi une nécessité voire une opération ultime et indispensable pour préserver le bien le plus précieux et impérieux de l'homme, la santé. La guérison peut alors être garantie partiellement ou totalement par le rituel incubatoire, entre autres pratiques. Cette pratique revêt ainsi l'apparence d'un véritable rituel d'initiation, elle suppose la reconnaissance de l'omnipotence du dieu sauveur (Asclépios très souvent accompagné de sa fille Hygie, ou Amphiaraos d'Oropos ou Trophonios de Lébadée) et oblige le patient à un renouveau, à une purification dans le processus de guérison. Elle est vécue comme une expérience de contact avec le divin. À l'issue de cette phase incubatoire, les consultants exaucés se voyaient dans l'obligation d'apporter en contrepartie des offrandes qui constituent aujourd'hui des témoins insignes : des inscriptions votives, stèles, des ex-voto anatomiques, des statues sculptées à l'effigie du dieu, des pinakes, et des reliefs votifs, pour en faire profiter à d'autres patients atteints du même mal. Ce sont tous ces vestiges, de la Sicile à l'Asie mineure, qui couvrent une période allant du début de l’époque classique (Ve siècle av. J.-C.) jusqu’à la fin du IIIe siècle de notre ère, que vous verrez regrouper dans notre corpus, dans une perspective d'éditionDating between the second half of the fourth century and the third century after Christ, the steles which we study for publishing, are votive inscriptions engraved generally in Dorian dialect under the initiative of the priests and the doctors of the sanctuaries of Asclepius, Amphiaraos or Trophonios. These epigraphic documents testify of miraculous healing realized by these gods towards faithful consultants in the sanctuaries which are dedicated at Epidauros, Athens, Pireus, Lebena, Cos, Pergamon, Corinth, Oropos, Livadia... In the hope of a cure or advice, the faithful consultants are asked to spend at night in a specific room for the ritual of the incubation, after preliminary rites (ritual bath, sacrifice…). During their sleep, the god or even one of his auxiliaries, the snake or the dog, appears to them in a dream: and this epiphany or intervention is enough to cure the patient, or to satisfy the needs of the consultant. The following day, the cured patients are supposed, by way of gratitude, either to offer to the god the effigy of their sick organ (the anatomical ex-voto) or to make engrave generally on wooden tablets the narrative of their cure, which they fix then to the wall of the temple. But for the sake of preserving these stories for posterity, the staff of the temple decided to transcribe on large steles in limestone or marble, proposing us real catalogues of miraculous healings. These documents are nevertheless very important in the field of the ancient Greek medicine: a medicine which offers however a curious mixture of mantic knowledge and rational knowledge in the process of cure. While observing the tensions between the traditional faith in the divine causality and the Hippocratic rationalism, we make a comparative study of the medical words used on our steles with the glossary of the contemporary medical literature spotted in the whole of the literary medical texts. And we can notice many diseases and the means of treatments (dietetic, surgery, chiropractic, pharmacopoeia, herbal medicine…), but also the popular beliefs about dream et disease in Ancient Greece

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Le premier volume est consacré à l’analyse des matériaux et des techniques utilisées pour la fabrication des « modèles » funéraires, c’est-à-dire, les maquettes en bois représentant des personnages ou des scènes de la vie quotidienne, typiques du mobilier funéraire des élites entre la fin de l’Ancien et la fin du Moyen Empire (env. 2350-1630 av. J.-C.). Dans une première partie, axée sur le matériel provenant des sites de Saqqâra, Assiout et Meir, les traits stylistiques et techniques ont été examinés afin de définir des groupes d’objets et identifier des ateliers de production. Des critères de datation ont ensuite été définis et comparés aux autres pièces du mobilier funéraire découverts dans les sépultures étudiées. Suivant un déroulé chronologique depuis la fin de l’Ancien Empire, la deuxième partie se concentre sur les ateliers de fabrication et les contacts interrégionaux. Une attention particulière est portée au rapport qui unit pouvoir royal, élites et artisans au travers de l’envoi d’équipements funéraires et plus particulièrement des modèles en bois découverts de la région memphite à la Haute-Égypte. La troisième partie s’intéresse aux fonctions sociales, économiques et religieuses des modèles et examine plus particulièrement le rapport étroit qui unit ce mobilier et les pratiques funéraires entre la fin de l’Ancien et la fin du Moyen Empire. Le deuxième volume présente le corpus des modèles en bois examinés. Un troisième volume est consacré aux annexes.L’examen des modèles en bois, significatif de profonds changements politiques et religieux à l’origine de nouvelles coutumes et croyances funéraires entre la VIème et la XIIIème dynastie, précise le contexte géographique, historique et social associé à la fabrication et à l’utilisation de ce mobilier et permet d’affiner la perception du rapport entre artisans et pouvoir, rapport omniprésent dans la société égyptienne antique dès la période prédynastiqueThe first part focuses on material analysis and process use for the manufacturing of funerary “models”. These wooden objects represent people or everyday scenes of life, used by Egyptian elites for funeral furniture between the end of the Old Kingdom to the end of the Middle Kingdom (cir. 2350-1630 BC). In a first part, focused on objects from Saqqara, Assiut and Meir, the stylistic and technical features were examined to define groups of objects and workshops. Then, dating criteria were defined and compared with the funeral furniture discovered in the studied graves. According to one unwound chronological since the end of the Old Kingdom, the second part concentrates on workshops and interregional contacts. A particular attention is worn in the relationship between royal power, elites and craftsmen through the sending of funeral equipment and more particularly bare wooden models of the Memphite area to the Upper Egypt. The third part is interested in the social, economic and religious functions of the models and examines more particularly the narrow relationship which unites this furniture and the funeral practices between the end of the Old Kingdom to the end of the Middle Kingdom. The second volume presents the corpus of the examined wooden models. The third volume is dedicated to appendices. The examination of wooden models, significant of political and religious deep changes at the origin of new customs and funeral faiths between the VIth and the XIIIth dynasty, specifies the geographical, historic and social context associated with the manufacturing. The analysis of these objects allows refining the perception of the relationship between craftsmen and power, omnipresent in the Egyptian society from the Predynastic period

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Historians have long connected the emergence of the early modern state with increased efforts to discipline populations. Allying with religious authorities to monitor private lives, states sought to limit sexual activity to marriage and to support patriarchal authority in order to create orderly societies and obedient subjects. Governments legitimated their increased intrusions into people's lives by arguing that it was their responsibility to bring about moral reformation in their subjects, but their new interest was also rooted in achieving more direct control over individuals for the purposes of preventing crime and disorder, rationalizing tax collection, eliminating legal pluralities, and inculcating military discipline.
This dissertation argues that the same motives that informed the policies of emerging states in this period lay at the heart of the Dutch West India Company's marriage regulation during its brief existence from 1621 to 1674. Company representatives sought to institute and enforce strict marriage discipline upon their colonists, soldiers, sailors, conquered subjects, and indigenous allies in order to transform them into proper subjects and to extend Company governance over vast, new territories. Like the centralizing states of the early modern period that justified their increased power by arguing that they were reforming their subjects, the West India Company responded to potential critics of their state-like power and their sovereign authority with the same rationale.
Company efforts to regulate marriage and sex were, however, challenged by the existence of overlapping jurisdictions emerging both from the Dutch Republic's own tradition of legal plurality and from the existing institutions of conquered European populations and indigenous allies. Whereas emerging absolutist states were able to either gain the cooperation of or eliminate institutions with competing claims to authority, examining the conflicts over marriage regulation in the Dutch colonies shows that the West India Company failed in its efforts to tame competing institutions and bring them under its authority. Looking at the Company's governance through the lens of its marriage and sex regulation, therefore, upends traditional understandings of the Company as a trading enterprise and suggests that its directors were engaged in the process of state formation. It also suggests a novel way to understand the Company's repeated setbacks and ultimate failure in 1674. Despite its claims to absolute authority and its efforts to negotiate and secure this authority, competing institutions never acquiesced to Company jurisdiction.

This study examines the history by which the local communities became separated from

knowledge to improve the management and conservation of rock art sites in the area. It
demonstrates how various forces of the distant and immediate past came into play and
systematically disconnected the Chewa communities around Chongoni area from their
ancestral rock shelters once used by scores of generations for many important functions
such as rock painting, rainmaking ceremonies and boys and girls initiation rituals. It
shows that the separation of these communities from their heritage happened gradually in
various episodes spread over the past 150 years. The key factors that directly or indirectly
led to the separation included the early conquest of the Chewa communities by the Ngoni
and other groups; conflicts with early Christian missionaries; heavy handed policies of
the British colonial government; social and political failures of the post-independent
state; the rise of multiparty politics, governance and human freedoms and others. Using
local evidence, I build a case for each of the mentioned factors and shows how this
community is still in danger of not only being completely separated from their ancestral
heritage but also losing the remaining strands of their unique traditions. The study
concludes by making recommendations for instituting participatory approaches in the
management and conservation of Chongoni World Heritage Site.

Abstract The essence of performance in musical aesthetics is different between the Western and East culture. The Asian music of 20th century is in the environment which is led by the West and internationalization. How to combine traditional philosophy and modern creativity is the composers’ ideal. This study starts from the orchestra of modern music, searches the outstanding composition which is put the Eastern traditional culture into action, and discusses the East culture how to effect the modern composition. In the mainstream led by Europe nowadays, the study seeks the possibility which could develops their own music traditions and supplies the references of the cultural innovation and heritage to the composers. Chiang Wen-Yeah who is born in Taiwan is the first celebrity of the modern composers in Asia. His masterpiece “Confucian Temple Rites” (1939) is worth probing by the importance of the Eastern culture and the era meaning of the innovative court music. Chiang Wen-Yeah observes the characters from the relationship between Confucian court music and teachings, comprehends philosophical knowledge of the scales, harmony and form, adds the creative conception of the modern music, and expresses the Eastern humanism spirit by orchestra. Besides, the well-known Korean composer, Isang Yun. His orchestral masterpiece “Reak”(1966) reflects the East “Taonism” on the Korean court music. “Taonism” is the fundamental notion in the East philosophy. It represents in every aesthetical field, especially calligraphy which is emphasized on the yin yang doctrine and form coordination. These factors profoundly effect on the strength and aesthesis of calligraphy. Isang Yun uses the spirit of “Taonism” and the yin yang doctrine on the orchestra by the concept of “houptton”. “Harmony Of The World” is the famous chapter of Confucian philosophy. The modern composer in Taiwan, Pan Hwang-Long, had completed “Harmony Of The World” orchestral concerto in 1986-1990. This concerto is applied three unattached movements to represent the ideal harmony world in Confucianism. Although Pan Hwang-Long’s music is well-known for avant-garde, he often shows the mind of the East philosophy. He uses the creative skills which he had learned during the period of studying in Europe and combines the spirit and imagery of the East text creation. By above mentioned, he attempts to express not only the ritual, humble and peaceful essence in Confucianism, but also the harmony scene in modern society. Furthurmore, he represents the extraordinary magnanimity of “Great Music is Simple” in the East music by linking acoustics skills and the East artistic conception together. This study takes three orchestral compositions as examples for observing the cultural foundation of three composers, understanding how to start from the traditions, expressing the artistic style in modern times, and discussing the accomplishment that they reflect Confucianism on modern music. For the nationals and modern artists, this study is expected for transforming the energy in modern times and performing the musical aesthesis of the East culture on the international stage.

Cette étude dresse un bref historique du concept de la dignité humaine pour observer sa dualité et sa multiplicité à travers les époques. Peu présente dans la littérature, la dignité au travail, tout aussi dichotomique et plurielle, s’inscrit néanmoins dans un cadre singulier, où s’ajoute des paramètres spécifiques à l’organisation du travail. Elle s’avère particulièrement problématique pour les employés atypiques, incluant entre autres les employés à contrats à durée déterminée, les employés saisonniers et les employés temporaires. Effectivement, malgré l’augmentation significative de leur embauche au sein du marché du travail canadien depuis la fin des années 1990, les employés atypiques représentent un groupe peu étudié, vulnérable et plus enclin à subir les répercussions de pratiques contraignantes et nuisibles à la dignité selon la précarité rattachée au statut, d’où la pertinence de s’y intéresser. En ce sens, si la dignité appelle à l’autonomie par la considération de la valeur intrinsèque et inaliénable de l’individu, et que le travail implique qu’il réalise des finalités autres que les siennes, s’interroger sur la dignité au travail, principalement chez un groupe marginalisé par sa présence éphémère, prend tout son sens.
La méthodologie de cette étude est basée sur l’analyse interprétative d’entretiens semi-structurés réalisés avec douze employés atypiques. Comparées à la littérature existante et suite à la mise en place d’une typologie du travail spécifique aux employés atypiques et à la dignité, les données recueillies ont montré une réappropriation de la dualité du concept par l’inclusion de l’opposition entre l’être et l’action de la part des participants. Plus encore, ils ont ajouté trois dimensions supplémentaires : l’interaction, les systèmes du travail et le temps. Concept central et pivot, l’interaction permet l’établissement de relations dans l’ensemble des dimensions. L’organisation du travail dans les systèmes et l’éphémérité du statut des employés atypiques, éléments différentiels, banalisent les pratiques nuisibles à la dignité des employés atypiques, où ces derniers finissent par percevoir leur situation comme un rite de passage dans l’attente d’un avenir meilleur.This study begins with a brief historical overview of the concept of dignity. Despite the multiple meanings given to the notion of dignity over time, a clear duality appears between definitions that privilege the intrinsic, inalienable nature of dignity and those that attribute dignity according to the quality of an individual's actions. While dignity at work has received far less scholarly attention, the emergent literature replicates the same dichotomy that is found in studies of dignity. The question of dignity at work is particularly important for atypical employees who, due to their precarious status, are especially vulnerable to workplace indignity. Surprisingly, atypical workers, a category that includes seasonal workers, temporary workers, workers on short-term contracts, and permanent part-timers, remain on the sidelines of much academic research, despite constant growth in their numbers as a proportion of the Canadian labour market since the late 1990s. The importance of studying dignity at work appears clearly in the following conundrum: how can we understand dignity at work when dignity implies that one recognizes the unique value of every human person based on his/her autonomy to choose his/her own ends, yet the context of work requires that workers commit themselves to attaining objectives imposed by someone else? Using an interpretive methodology to explore the meanings of dignity at work, this study is based on semi-structured interviews with twelve atypical employees. The findings show how participants reconciled the duality between being and doing as a source of dignity. Participants added three other dimensions that are not present in the extant literature: interaction, work systems, and time. These five dimensions are combined to create a typology of dignity at work that is specific to atypical employees. Interaction acts as a core concept that links all of the other dimensions together. The organization of work systems and the ephemeral status of atypical employees work together to trivialize workplace practices that undermine the dignity of atypical employees, who come to perceive their situation as a rite of passage to be endured while waiting for a better future.

The aim of this diploma thesis is to explore the possible influence of the idea of the end of the world on the process of conquest and colonization of America. The author tries to answer this question through the study of selected images of the Last Judgment. The purpose aim of this thesis is not to describe or stylistically classify given works of art, but to interpret them using the methodology based on the semiotic conception of culture as public symbolical system that allows to interpret the culture and its expressions in their social connections. As the topic of this work is related to the question of death and finality, the chosen works of art are interpreted also in connection with A. van Gennep's idea of "rites of passage", which enables to pass from one life stage to another. The main source for analysis is the photographic material, which illustrates images and reliefs of the Last Judgment in their natural environment.

Nicholas Roerich, the well-known Russian artist, writer and mystic from the early twentieth century is best known in the West for his theatrical design work, above all for the sets of the celebrated ballet The Rite of Springs. The goal of this thesis is to provide a fuller understanding of Roerich’s art and literary works within the historical context of his time. In particular, I have sought to illuminate Roerich’s focus on depiction of nature, especially mountains, in relation to his fascination with the mythical Shambhala.
In the first chapter of this thesis I analyze Roerich’s early career, as well as his personal and professional relationship with the World of Art, the leading art group at the turn of the twentieth century in Russia. Roerich’s early interest in the history of ancient Russia, archeology and geology, which I discuss, was central to the meaning of his landscape depictions in both his stage designs and paintings. The second chapter of this work investigates how these interests evolved into the artist’s quest for Eastern wisdom and mystical revelations. Although Roerich is often treated as an oddity, his concerns with occult ideas were not unique in his time. The third chapter focuses on Roerich’s activities abroad and his international success as a promoter of ancient wisdom. I discuss the Russian émigré art scene in New York in the 1920s and Roerich’s place within it. I also offer an examination of the artist’s correspondence with his family and colleagues, which sheds light on Roerich’s beliefs in his mysterious “Teachers” and their role in leading him to the East.text

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This dissertation aims to critically evaluate the Incwala Sacred Ceremony
and its relevancy to Ancestral Veneration in the life of the Swazi Nation.
Swazis to a greater extent are believed to be quite obsessed about their
cultural heritage. They view this cultural event as sacred and very
important in their national unity and pride of being a sovereign entity. They
religiously observe this rite as an integral part of their cultural heritage and
see it as a vital glue that holds together the national unity and cements the
eternity of the Swazis' existence. Celebrating and commemorating this
sacred festival can be equated to what Christians do when celebrating and
observing Good Friday or Holy Easter. It could also be related to the
Islamic Pilgrimage to Mecca.
Swazis are strongly connected to their Ancestral Veneration. It is
inculcated in their core system of beliefs and is part of their lives because
it tends to shape their religious view, as well as moulding it. The Supreme
God (Mvelinchanti) is believed to have spoken to the founding fathers of
the nation about how the nation ought to conduct its affairs (in different
forms through visions and dreams). Hence there is a deeply held view that
the departed kings and the forefathers are believed to be alive and closer
to that very Supreme God. According to this long held view the dead are
asleep and are continually involved in directing the affairs of the nation.
Indeed they decide on blessings, health and life of the living. It is embedded in the subconscious mind of Swazis that the living dead
(emadloti, labaphasi or labalele) continually influence the affairs of the
nation and any given family; hence they need to be consulted from time to
time.
Emadloti are the mediators between human beings and God and they
can be contacted through the spiritual mediums. The national elders and
advisors to the Monarchy,1 as well as traditional medicine persons (muti)
people (Tinyanga and Tangoma), are there as custodians of the Incwala
Ceremony. In any given family, emadloti (ancestors) are consulted in
times of marriages, new births and any other eventualities that may befall
that family. In the life and worldview of Swazis, nothing just happens
without any involvement and sanction of the ancestors. In fact, for
anything to happen in the life of a Swazi, there must be a supernatural
cause or reason, hence in the very core of foundational beliefs there are
involvements of the supernatural powers and the forces believed to be
operational.Practical Theology

This qualitatively oriented Practical Theology research journey, informed by postmodernism and social constructionism, was based on a narrative enquiry into the healing and renegotiation of identity of five "faithful spouses" post infidelity and divorce. These conversations occurred within a small group context, where narratives were spoken and witnessed (pastoral therapeutic gatherings), and were aimed at enabling the participants to remember and re-author preferred identities and new ways of being. This dissertation attempts to bring together the narratives of the participants, the literature, narrative therapy and pastoral care.
My research curiosity was prompted by my mother's experience of divorce, and by the myriad number of conversations I have had with both "infidels" and "faithful spouses" in my pastoral practice. This research journey examines the process of co-creating, along with my fellow travellers (research participants), a viable model of divorce recovery in the face of infidelity and divorce.Practical Theology

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Funeral leaders share the ministry of comfort with others. They make a specific religious contribution towards restoring life or decontaminating from death, which affects the faith and hope of the bereaved. Their ministry responds to a need of the bereaved by
affirming community in the face of death. It is based on spirituality and grounded in the biblical and apostolic tradition; it is carried out in a catholic contextualisation. The leaders' insertion into both the cultural background and the religious realm encourages
contextualisation. Their verbal proclamation is done in various ways and is linked to ritual. It reflects the three dimensions of the model employed in pastoral theology by taking life seriously, interpreting it in the light of faith, and leading a celebration that opens up the future of the participants. The leaders' proclamation is sincere when they link cultural family-procedures and church rituals in a parallel way. Sincerity suffers when community leaders, used to provide a comprehensive service, cannot preside over the promised celebration of the Eucharist, which could be the culmination of the rite of passage. Their ministry remains incomplete because of factors beyond their
control. It nevertheless contributes to justice in many ways, in particular by deploying local people. While the ministry is carried out independently, it depends on collaboration with the pastoral staff, in particular the priests. They safeguard the quality of ministry by
formation and through supervision. The collaborative formation contributes to the cultural insertion of the local and expatriate staff and enhances their competence. This collaborative ministry serves the bereaved, the community of faith, and theology. It allows the development of a contextualised liturgy, and a local theology. It is a step forward on the road towards a genuine form of community ministry in this particular African context. It corresponds with contemporary secular approaches towards leadership and management. African approaches emphasise the need for
contextualised management forms. They assume the compatibility of different practices employed in different contexts. The comprehensively grounded ministry seems to contribute to the avoidance or overcoming of some of the grave shortcomings of
ministry as provided in the past.Christian Spirituality, Church History and Missiology
