Salmose, Niklas. "Towards a poetics of nostalgia : the nostalgic experience in modern fiction". Thesis, University of Edinburgh, 2012. http://hdl.handle.net/1842/7728.
Texto completo da fonteResumo:
In recent years there has been a body of studies relating nostalgia and fiction in political, sociological, feminist, or historical ways. This thesis, instead, sets out to perform an unusual textual study of nostalgia in modern fiction in order to work towards a poetics of nostalgia. Although the experience of emotion is private, the object of analytical discourse must be to approach this experience with objective tools. The thesis therefore develops a method for analyzing the experience of nostalgia in literary texts and then uses this method to study how nostalgia can be evoked in readers. The method works through close textual readings, developed through reader-response and narratological theories and validated through a thorough investigation of modern nostalgia in general. The result is a taxonomy of nostalgic strategies that possibly create nostalgic reactions in readers.

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
When put to the question, "What are your poetics?" I usually answer that I tend toward lyrical and narrative surrealism. Most of the poems in this thesis collection have discernible through-lines, or at least some sense of "aboutness." Across these poems, however, I've experimented with various poetic tools in an attempt to refract experience rather than entirely abstract it. For example, by varying identities and locations of the speaker, some poems achieve a surrealist sense while maintaining proximity to the lyrical or narrative. Some have multiple speakers, and speakers of undefined identity, which further defamiliarizes their language. Another tool I work with is address: to the reader in some poems, between "actors" in other poems, or addresses from speakers to agencies or forces that seem to reside beyond the poem. In this sense, much of this work is performative. Variations in diction, within and across poems, add to both their surreal and performative qualities. Wide variation in form has been another impulse in my work. It has been an exercise in shapeshifting, an often obsessive practice of reworking poems in different structural arrangements, releasing and altering meaning along the way. In many cases, disforming and reforming poems as I revised them felt akin to erasure, a means of abandoning intent. In its eclecticism, I hope this collection reflects how abruptly, how discordantly, language and images are now enabled to encounter us––via what we might consider to be our own devices.

Why do we keep things? To remember.
Bedside tables are our modern-day altars, places where habit, respect, mystery, and love collide. Our physical materials wait while we travel through dreams, coaxing us back into activity come morning. Books and remote controls summon sleep, alarm clocks and written reminders startle the mind into a wakeful state. But not all objects are directly linked to sleeping or waking; some things simply exist to comfort us, reflecting our need to gather, collect, and nest.

Nguyen, Phuong Thao. ""Nostalgia for the present": Digital nostalgia and mediated authenticity on Instagram". Thesis, Stockholms universitet, Institutionen för mediestudier, 2017. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:su:diva-144082.
Texto completo da fonteResumo:
Retro art and technology have been on the rise in recent years, the phenomenon is fuelled by the nostalgia of a sense of authenticity that the offline world can no longer satisfy. The integration of technology into human’s social conduct has made it an extension of their beings. Faced with technological progress, people also yearn to regress to the age-old days of their childhood. Nostalgia often comes with romanticization of the past, but it also offers a sense of security and realness that is seemingly lost amid the constant exchange of data in the present time. This lays ground for the rise of faux-vintage photos on social application Instagram. Bracing itself as a modern digital media, Instagram capitalizes on nostalgia for the analog and fetishization of the retro aesthetics of old media. While researchers have noted the link between Instagram and digital nostalgia, these works remained within the theoretical realm. Using a combination of interface criticism and interview, the paper focuses on human and computer interaction to study digital nostalgia and mediated authenticity on Instagram. The findings point out the complexity of Instagram as a social network and a creative tool in the emerging age of pervasive computing, in which the technology increasingly integrates and fades into the background of our everyday lives. The paper’s intention is to develop further understanding of retromodern technology, particularly Instagram, in reconstructing our knowledge of society and everyday social conduct. A better comprehension of our digital culture is crucial to the development of the self and society.

Nicéphore, Anastasia. "Platωn’s Reality: Baudrillard’s Nostalgia". Thesis, The University of Sydney, 2016. http://hdl.handle.net/2123/15298.
Texto completo da fonteResumo:
Platωn has been praised as one of the first western critical thinkers to query the social function of literature, which is seen in terms of a sociocultural and theoretical framework, and predicated on philosophical and political ideas relating to the “Ideal State” (Republic, 380 BCE).[1] In a sense, Platωnestablishes the principle that literature should cut through to the notion of an ideal truth rather than be used as a vehicle for subjective visions and aesthetic tropes by those claiming to be ‘artists.’To engage with this centrality of human consciousness means to integrate a single source of origin: a Platωnic “οὐσία.” Nonetheless,contemporary hermeneutics draw upon perceptions that the origin is elliptic in postmodern and continental philosophical trains of thought. Moreover,much obscurity arises from; difficulties in translation, incongruent grammatical structures differing Classical Greek from English, Platωn’s own insistence on over-emphasis, and what some philosophers and philologists would consider ‘taut tautology’ – which leaves vast amounts of passages in Pre-Socratic manuscripts and Platωnic dialogues open to speculation and subjectivity.Within my discipline, philosophical debates center on the difficulty of pinpointing truth, the real, or some definitive and/or tangible self-referential core within an age of pluralism and uncertainty. For this reason, current scholarship can gain much from clarifying these ubiquitous areas. Through comparative constructs, the nature of the novel, its evolution over time and inclusion of postmodernist technologies, cyber-capitalism, and accompanying symbols, bring us to question the real and human exigency. Could it be that “unlimited experimentation” within and upon a text warrants an aesthetic surface that construes a morally heinous environment? In The Illusion of the End,[2] Baudrillard probes this concept by vivifying that a lack of substance –an “exponential instability” (110) –is invariably transmuting into an altogether absent entity. Within this displacement, my doctoral thesis juxtaposes Platωnic exegesis of the real –the “οὐσία” –and Baudrillardian aporia of current modes of reality for the body politic. Thus the question, is Baudrillard’s nostalgia for the real rooted in the origins of theory, Platωn’s real –the “οὐσία”? Further, the examination of a relatively new area of concern within the temporality of postmodernity – the extent to which social acceleration influences ways of thinking and narrating.

Kalinina, Ekaterina. "Mediated Post-Soviet Nostalgia". Doctoral thesis, Södertörns högskola, Medie- och kommunikationsvetenskap, 2014. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:sh:diva-24576.
Texto completo da fonteResumo:
Post-Soviet nostalgia, generally understood as a sentimental longing forthe Soviet past, has penetrated deep into many branches of Russian popular culture in the post-1989 period. The present study investigates how the Soviet past has been mediated in the period between 1991 and 2012 as one element of a prominent structure of feeling in present-day Russian culture. The Soviet past is represented through different mediating arenas – cultural domains and communicative platforms in which meanings are created and circulated. The mediating arenas examined in this study include television, the Internet, fashion, restaurants, museums and theatre. The study of these arenas has identified common ingredients which are elements of a structure of feeling of the period in question. At the same time, the research shows that the representations of the past vary with the nature of the medium and the genre. The analysis of mediations of the Soviet past in Russian contemporary culture reveals that there has been a change in the representations of the Soviet past during the past twenty years, which roughly correspond to the two decades marked by the presidencies of Boris Yeltsin in the 1990s and of Vladimir Putin in the 2000s (including Dmitrii Medvedev's term, 2008–2012). The critical and reflective component that was present in representations of the Soviet past in the 1990s has slowly faded away, making room first for more commercial and then for political exploitations of the past. Building on Svetlana Boym's conceptual framework of reflective and restorative nostalgia, the present study provides an illustration of how reflective nostalgia is being gradually supplanted by restorative nostalgia. Academic research has provided many definitions of nostalgia, from strictly medical explanations to more psychological and socio-cultural perspectives. The present study offers examples of how nostalgia functions as a label in ascribing political and cultural identities to oneself and to others, creating confusion about the term and about what and who can rightly be called nostalgic.

Nostalgia in consumer behavior is shown to be effective. Every generation has their own views of nostalgia. Their ability, proneness and intensity to process nostalgia is different for each generation. The Chinese one-child generation in terms of their special growth environment and characteristics was chosen as the object of study. The thesis begins with the model of nostalgic consumption. The model includes the indirect factors towards nostalgia proneness, the direct factors towards nostalgia intensity and the consumption of nostalgic products. Two qualitative methods were used to collect data, which are the focus group and the individual interview. Two nostalgic brands, one Finnish brand Nokia and a Chinese brand Arctic Ocean Soda (AOS) were used to encourage the discussion of the focus group. There are some surprised results came from the focus group and the following individual interview. These results helped to refine the model. Finally, some suggestions were given to Nokia and AOS companies about how to attract Chinese one-child generation.

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
Understanding consumers' preferences is central in marketing. Their tendency to prefer products of domestic rather than foreign origin, and the impact their emotional and affective state has on their purchasing decisions are well-documented in the literature. This thesis connects these two research themes by examining the impact feelings of nostalgia have on ethnocentric product preferences. The focus on nostalgia is not accidental. Advertising and marketing campaigns of several multinational companies have recently attempted to trigger such feelings amongst consumers in order to promote their products. The thesis begins by offering a more robust investigation for the presence of country of origin effects and the impact of consumer ethnocentrism on it, using a multi- cultural sample and measuring individuals' actual preferences. Using separate inducements for nostalgia - at the 'personal' level, referring to past events the consumers experienced alone, and at the 'collective' level, referring to past events the consumers experienced in the company of others - it proceeds by providing evidence suggesting that feelings of nostalgia significantly increase preferences for domestic products, as well as ratings of their perceived quality. Both inducements have similar effects on preferences and ratings. Subsequently investigating the underlying psychological mechanism responsible for the effect of nostalgia on ethnocentric product preferences, the thesis provides evidence that self-reported 'meaning of life' - a composite measure previously linked to nostalgia - is a significant mediator of this effect; having a significantly positive indirect effect on both preferences for and ratings of domestic products. The thesis concludes by discussing the implications these findings have for man- agerial practice and outlining future directions for marketing research in this field.

Para adentrarnos en el tema “Nostalgia en el Autorretrato” iremos en busca de aquella época que fue tierra fértil para que el hombre se reconociera como individuo y se representara como tal mediante un sentimiento humanista, que muy temprano fue sutilmente modificando el concepto teológico y ontológico de una iglesia medieval, que se resistía desde sus cúpulas a estas nuevas revoluciones intelectuales y que, sin embargo, desde sus cimientos comienza el deterioro de aquellas concepciones que conformaban la fortaleza de la verticalidad de aquellas catedrales francesas. Dicho de otro modo, la antigua y elevada cultura clásica desde su reaparición en el siglo XII comienza su lento proceso revolucionario, erosionando un escenario social que mostrara sus resultados más concretos en los siglos XIV y XV del renacimiento italiano.

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
This thesis aims to analyse the function of a “nostalgia game” – games that intentionally reference to the past to broaden their appeal. The two games chosen for analysis are Yacht Club Games’ Shovel Knight (2014) and Nintendo’s The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (2017). Shovel Knight exemplifies a game purposefully designed as a celebration of classic videogames on the NES form the late 1980s to early 1990s by using retro aesthetics and old game design conventions. Breath of the Wild demonstrates how a game series looks to its roots for innovation – the original Legend of Zelda released in 1986. The analysis will be divided in two sections for each game. The first section looks at the recurrence of game mechanics and references both games make through the concept of “remediation” (Bolter & Grusin, 1999) and how the games use nostalgia. The second section looks at the micro-temporalities of the games and how they reflect the games they are referencing. These micro-temporalities are referred to as “seriality” (Denson & Jahn-Sudmann, 2015). The wider purpose of this thesis is to lay the groundwork for future research into the field of nostalgic videogames.

Artista textilEn la presente memoria pretendo analizar y describir el proceso de elaboración del proyecto La nostalgia de la imagen, tanto desde lo reflexivo como desde lo técnico. Este trabajo nace de la necesidad de reconstruir mi historia en un reencuentro con el hacer, así como también, del anhelo de hallar y comprender los elementos que me llevaron a producir un trabajo que se caracteriza por estar principalmente ligado con mi historia familiar, recuerdos y relaciones que he establecido con las materialidades y las técnicas textiles. Este escrito se estructura en torno a tres temas centrales: memoria, técnica y materialidad, y obra. De estos conceptos se desprenden diversos problemas tales como la idea de la imagen como recurso facilitador del recuerdo, el tiempo, la experiencia, así como las técnicas textiles, en particular las utilizadas para la representación, como por ejemplo el bordado, las distintas materialidades y sus desplazamientos. En términos de antecedentes realizo una revisión de ejercicios previos que me permiten recoger desde mi propio proceso la experiencia de reconstruir imágenes que emergen desde la memoria.

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
The purpose of this research was to extend the knowledge on two distinct types of nostalgia; Personal and Historical. Previous empirical research has studied nostalgia only as a unified concept. Two scales were developed and validated to measure these responses independently of each other. Hypotheses were developed based on extant literature which postulated significant changes in cognitive, emotional, attitudinal, and intention responses as a result of the response type. A model incorporating these consumer reactions was extended and tested. Finally, the effects of varying intensities of the two response types were explored independently of each other.An experimental research design was used with a sound methodology developed though previous studies. A variety of statistical techniques deemed appropriate for each step of the analysis was used. These included both qualitative and quantitative techniques including structural equation modelling and multivariate analyses.Results show significant differences in the consumer behaviour responses examined as a result of the type of nostalgic response being elicited. The examined responses of cognition, emotions, attitudes, and intention are of high significance to academics and managers alike. In terms of comparing Personal and Historical Nostalgia to one another, Personal Nostalgia had a tendency to be more beneficial in the majority of consumer reactions. A model of these reactions was successfully extended and shown to differ between the conditions illustrating the need to explore these reactions independently. Varying levels of intensity of each specific nostalgic response type were shown to have significant effects on the examined consumer behaviour responses also. As a very general statement of the findings, it was found to be worthwhile to raise the levels of Personal or Historical Nostalgia to as high a level as possible to significantly positively alter emotions, attitudes, and intention. However, although significant cognitive changes were seen between low and mid levels of each nostalgic reaction, moving to a high level was found to have no significant impact on cognitive reactions.The most significant contributions of the research are the development of the two specific scales independently of each other through seven studies, and substantiating the hypothesised differences between the two responses with empirical evidence. These findings bridge many important gaps in the literature. Personal and Historical Nostalgia had previously only been conceptually discussed, with little to no empirical data, despite evidence of both types in the market place. The varying costs and benefits of evoking the two nostalgic responses, or varying levels of either, were unknown until now. This research results in several conceptual, methodological, and managerial implications especially valuable to academics, strategists, and industry policy makers. It also provides a solid foundation for numerous future studies.

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
Millennials, or Generation Y, represent one of today’s most prominent age cohorts: with their increasingly stronger purchasing power and importance in the global economic landscape, it is no wonder that marketers are striving to find new ways to appeal to the taste of this peculiar generation of consumers. Among the various modern research fields in business, one in particular is offering incredibly interesting insights to both scholars and professional marketers: the concept of nostalgia proneness in consumer behavior. While several studies examine the dynamics of this phenomenon, none of them so far examined the impact of nostalgia proneness in shopping behavior, especially examining the dynamics on a sample of Generation Y consumers. This study was conducted in order to explore the dynamics of nostalgia proneness, linking the constructs to both desire for uniqueness and shopping behavior, using the framework provided by the Consumer Styles Inventory (Sproles & Sproles, 1990). After a theoretical review on the matter, several hypotheses and a conceptual model were developed to serve as the core framework of the quantitative analysis. The data, obtained from a convenience sample of 222 respondents, were subsequently examined using several statistical techniques (ANOVA, correlation and factor analysis), with the intent to test the hypotheses and shed light on the research questions. The outcome was then presented and interpreted using both the theoretical background and other complementary relevant literature. The results showed a positive relationship between nostalgia proneness and desire for uniqueness, with both variables being further connected to several shopping traits of the Generation Y consumer. The cluster and factor analysis eventually showed patterns that could be interpreted using the theory of hedonic and utilitarian shopping motivations.

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
In recent years, interest in nostalgia and its many potential benefits has blossomed, yet the nature of nostalgia in older adulthood has remained largely unexplored. This is surprising, given that nostalgia serves many functions which are highly relevant to older adults and which could determine whether they adjust poorly or well to older adulthood. In order to address this shortfall, this thesis reports on research exploring nostalgia and wellbeing across the lifespan. First, I compare the content of nostalgic and ordinary autobiographical memories using multiple coding methods. Results highlight the strong social orientation of nostalgia in older adults (Chapter 2). Second, I examine psychological wellbeing across the lifespan and demonstrate that stability or gains in wellbeing are contingent on nostalgia (Chapter 3). Furthermore, these age-related differences in psychological wellbeing are at least partly driven by a perception of limited time (Chapter 4). Finally, I explore whether there are individual differences in those who stand to benefit most from nostalgia. Results suggest that nostalgia may not meet the affiliative needs of high growth adults as they get older. This is demonstrated across a wide variety of measures, including psychological wellbeing (Chapter 5), subjective wellbeing and health (Chapter 6). Overall, this thesis emphasises the value of taking a lifespan perspective on nostalgia.

Sob o título de NOSTOS – A NOSTALGIA DE TODOS NÓS, esta dissertação é uma reflexão poética que se desenvolve na dualidade entre literatura e artes plásticas. Estende-se, todo o trabalho, na passagem de uma semântica literária, para um semântica visual, evidenciando-se uma cumplicidade entre palavras e imagens. Assim é manifestada uma visão de mundos, expressados a partir de Ulisses, de James Joyce, precisamente sobre sua Terceira Parte (Nostos), Episódio 17-Ítaca. Projeções visuais, através de pinturas e livros de artista, vêm emanadas do pensamento em torno de Nostos, ou seja, a vontade de regressar e identificar-se com um lugar do próprio Eu, dado pela obra de arte. Nesta reflexão há o descobrir onde se espelhar, como um regresso a si mesmo, possibilitada pela obra que se dispõe também ao olhar do Outro. Há o regressar pelo percurso da obra, intermediada pelo olhar do Outro. Desenvolvendo a conexão fundada pela palavra joyceana e instaurando, a partir dela, um signo visual. O texto, nesta dissertação, refere-se à dialética estabelecida no processo da formação da obra, manifestada na sua poiética.This text, whose title is “Nostos - The Nostalgia we all have”, is a poetic reflexion upon the duality between literature and visual arts. The whole work reflects upon this passage between literary and visual semantics, revealing the intimacy between words and images. A vision of worlds is thus expressed, taking as starting point James Joyce’s “Ullysses”, especially its 3rd part (Nostos), and its 17th episode (Ithaca) Visual projections, through the artist’s paintings and books, are emanations of nostos, ie, the longing for return and identification with the locus of the self, given by the work of art. In this reflection dwells the finding out of a place to replicate, as if through a looking-glass, as if it were a return to the self, made possible through the work which presents itself to the Other´s gaze. There is a return through the itinerary of the work, mediated by the Other’s gaze, building upon the connection established by Joyce’s words and construing, upon it, a visual sign. The text, in this work, refers to the dialectics established in the process of formation of the work, made visible trough its poiesis.

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
This thesis examines the role of History and Nostalgia in shaping the modern Tea Party movement, which emerged across the United States of America in early 2009. Inspired by the seminal work of Professor Jill Lepore, The Whites of Their Eyes, this thesis attempts to further investigate the Tea Party movement and their unique relationship with the past: from the social movement’s links with other conservative historical organisations such as the John Birch Society, to the Tea Party movement’s adoption and exploitation of the history of the American Revolution as a means of gaining political legitimacy. This thesis contextualises as well as details the historical origins, organisations, and ideologies behind the social movement. In the process of this task, the thesis has employed an experimental methodology which attempts to fuse together the philosophy of History with the discipline of History – an idea that was inspired during the experience of carrying out the thesis research at the time. This thesis highlights: the influence of the Internet over Tea Party movement, the Tea Party movement’s historiography of the American Revolution, as well as the similarities and differences of historical experiences shared by the Tea Party movement and the generation responsible for the American Revolution.

The following study is developed considering fragments of the life course of Gorchakov, the foreign character of Andrei Tarkovski's movie Nostalgia (1983). Such fragments allowed me to draw up short journeys adressing time and memory, closely followed by Frances Yates' wording on the Art of Memory, as well as the writings of Tarkovsky himself about the Sculpting in Time. This dissertation is, above anything else, the result of a deep admiration for the film work of this Russian artist, as well as for his poetry about faith in the transformation of the man. This admiration derives a large portion of my rapture in relation to Tarkovsky's images, and in the way these act in my mind as a force of inspiration.O presente texto desenvolve-se a partir de fragmentos do percurso de vida de Gorchakov, o personagem estrangeiro do filme intitulado Nostalgia (1983), de Andrei Tarkovski. Tais fragmentos possibilitaram-me a elaboração de pequenos percursos escritos sobre o tempo e a memória, acompanhados de perto pelos textos de Frances Yates sobre a Arte da Memória, bem como pelos escritos do próprio Tarkovski sobre a arte de Esculpir o Tempo. Esta dissertação é, mais do que tudo, fruto da profunda admiração que cultivo pela obra cinematográfica deste artista russo e sua poética sobre a fé na transformação do homem. Daí provém grande parcela de meu arrebatamento com relação às suas imagens, e no modo como estas agem em meu espírito como força de inspiração.

Çeler, Zafer. "Temporality in the postmodern times and the ottoman nostalgia in Turkey". Thesis, Paris 1, 2016. http://www.theses.fr/2016PA01D093.
Texto completo da fonteResumo:
En Turquie, il y a un intérêt croissant pour le passé ottoman au cours de la décennie dernière. Le désir pour le passé ottoman semble envahir la société turque. Les images, les objets et les discours liés à l'histoire ottomane ont fait leur apparition dans les séries télévisuelles, les discours politiques, les manifestations sur les médias sociaux, dans l'architecture et la décoration de maison. Cette étude vise à comprendre les raisons d'un tel essor pour le passé ottoman dans la société turque par rapport à la transformation de l'histoire, et les changements dans les modes d'engagement avec le passé dans les sociétés occidentales modernes. Elle tente d'analyser ce nouvel intérêt à travers les références à la fois à la dynamique interne de la modernisation turque et aux changements structurels plus généraux au sein des sociétés modernes. Les débats sur le néo-ottomanisme affirment que cet intérêt est le résultat de la stratégie politique turque dans la scène politique internationale, ou bien qu'il est une tentative délibérée du gouvernement conservateur pour mettre en place un nouveau discours historique. Cette étude, au-delà de ces arguments, soutient que l'intérêt trouvé vers le passé ottoman est une conséquence de la convergence des changements et des ruptures que la société turque a confronté depuis les années 1980 et des continuités au sein de la modernisation turque.La transformation et les changements survenus après par l'intégration de l'économie turque au réseau néo-libéral mondial ne sont pas seulement limités au domaine économique, mais aussi ont affecté les structures sociales, culturelles et politiques. Cette formation sociale a provoqué la transformation des formes d'engagement avec le passé de la société turque. À cet égard, la montée de la nostalgie ottomane implique un changement structurel de la société, ce qui nécessite d'éclairer les changements que les sociétés modernes ont subi à la suite du capitalisme tardif et de son édifice néo-libéral. Cette transformation a provoqué un changement de la temporalité où le passé devient une réserve de références ahistoriques. La temporalité post-moderne provoque l'effondrement des structures sociales, politiques et culturelles dans un abîme des références vides ahistorique à la suite de détemporalisation de l'histoire. La nostalgie ottomane de la société turque peut être expliquée par rapport à ce changement temporal. D'autre part, parmi ces changements et la transformation, les continuités des caractéristiques fondamentales de la modernisation turque devraient également être soulignées. L'intégration de la société turque dans l'économie de marché néo-libéral a été réalisé par un coup d'État qui a créé une condition sociale dans laquelle une vaste autoritarisme de l’État et de l'économie de marché libre ont existé côte à côte. Cette étude affirme que la caractéristique fondamentale définissant la modernisation de la Turquie est un modernisme réactionnaire. Celui-ci est entendu dans ce travail comme une adaptation sélective de la modernité occidentales.C’est dans l’objectif d'éviter les complexités de la société moderne. Cela a causé une réduction de modernisation au développementalisme monolithique. Ce modernisme réactionnaire s'établit à travers une distinction fondamentale entre la civilisation et la culture. Dans cette distinction, alors que la civilisation signifie un développement technologique, la culture se réfère aux caractéristiques innées de la nation comme des caractéristiques étrangères aux idéaux universels des Lumières. Du kémalisme organiciste, corporatiste et solidariste au néo-libéralisme autoritaire de la période post-1980, le modernisme réactionnaire se soutient comme une caractéristique essentielle et continue de la modernisation turque. [...]In Turkey, there has been an increasing interest towards the Ottoman past in recent years. The appetite for the Ottoman past seems invading the Turkish society. The images, objects and discourses related to the Ottoman history have been appearing in from television series, political discourses and manifestations to social media, from architecture to house decorations. This study aims to understand the reasons for such a revival of the Ottoman past in Turkish society within the framework of the transformation of the history, and the changes in the ways of engagement with the past in modern societies. It attempts to analyse this new interest through the references both to the internal dynamics of the Turkish modernisation and to the more general structural changes within the modern societies. The debates over the neo-Ottomanism either claim that it is strategic policy in the international political stage, or assert that it is a deliberate attempt of the conservative government to establish a new historical discourse. This study, beyond these arguments, contends that the interest towards the Ottoman past is a consequence resulting from the convergence of the changes and ruptures that the Turkish society has been experiencing since the 1980s and of the continuities within the Turkish modernisation. The transformation and changes brought by the integration of the Turkish economy into the global neo-liberal network were not only limited to the economic field, but also affected the social, cultural and political structures. This social constitution caused the transformation of the ways and forms of engagement with the past in the Turkish society. In this regard, the surge of the Ottoman nostalgia implies a structural change of society that can only be explained through illuminating the changes that the modern societies have been undergoing as a result of the arrival of late-capitalism and its neo-liberal edifice. This transformation brought up a change in the temporality in which the past becomes a reserve of ahistorical references. The late-modern or post-modern temporality causes the collapse of the social, political and cultural structures into an abyss of the ahistoric empty references as a result of detemporalisation the history. The Ottoman nostalgia in the Turkish society can be explained within this change of temporality. On the other hand, among these changes and transformation, the continuities of the fundamental characteristics of the Turkish modernisation should also be emphasised. The integration of the Turkish society into the neo-liberal market economy was brought up by a coup d’état which created a social condition in which extensive state authoritarianism and free-market economy have existed side by side. This study claims that the fundamental characteristic defining the Turkish modernisation is reactionary modernism which means a selective approach to modernity in order to avoid the complexities of the modern society by reducing the modernisation into monolithic developmentalism. Reactionary modernism establishes itself on a fundamental distinction between civilisation and culture. In this distinction, while civilisation means a technological development, culture refers to the innate characteristics of the nation as alien features to the universal ideals of the Enlightenment. From the organicist, solidarist corporatism of Kemalism to the neo-liberal free-market authoritarianism of the post-1980 period, the reactionary modernism sustained itself as the continuing characteristic of the Turkish modernisation.

This study analyzes the influence of nostalgic appeal (in products and messages) in consumer attitude. I provide a literature review on the concept and studies about nostalgia to develop hypotheses and variables related to nostalgia. To investigate the relationship between the nostalgic appeal of the message and the product and the attitude toward the advertising, the attitude toward the product and purchase intention, a qualitative research through interviews with thirteen people, six consumer and seven professionals related to the theme. The analysis of interviews were conducted by content analysis. The results were categorized and resulting proposals of the interviews were developed on the mark whit nostalgic appeal and influence on consumer identification and purchase intention, the time of the relationship in a social group with proneness to nostalgia of the group members and the purchase intention and the nostalgic appeal (in products and messages) and purchase intention moderate by the appreciation level of consumer for its culture. This research, with the literature review, served as empirical basis for the quantitative study and hypotheses related to the nostalgic appeal in the product and in the message moderate by involvement with the product and proneness to nostalgia and the influences in attitude toward the ad, attitude toward the product and purchase intention. For the quantitative work were realized two studies, one study was pilot test, were conducted with three experiments each that allowed the test of hypotheses through analysis of variance and covariance analysis. Among the results, it was observed that the combined use between nostalgic appeal in the message and in the product has a better effect on the presentation of an advertisement which facilitates the consumers understanding. The nostalgic appeal in the product directly influenced the attitude towards the advertisement, attitude toward the product and purchase intention. The differences between genders and social classes in the respondents and the finding concerning the involvement with the product and the proneness to nostalgia as covariates were highlighted. In the end, the final considerations, the theoretical and practical implications, limitations and future directions.
O presente trabalho teve por objetivo analisar a influência do apelo nostálgico na atitude do consumidor. O trabalho foi iniciado com uma revisão de literatura sobre a conceituação e os estudos sobre a nostalgia, em seguida, o desenvolvimento das hipóteses e possíveis variáveis relacionadas à nostalgia. Para verificar a relação entre o apelo nostálgico da mensagem e do produto e a atitude em relação à propaganda, a atitude em relação ao produto e a intenção de compra, foi desenvolvida uma pesquisa qualitativa por meio de entrevistas com treze pessoas, seis consumidores e sete profissionais de áreas relacionadas ao tema. A análise das entrevistas foi realizada pela análise de conteúdo. Os resultados foram categorizados e foram desenvolvidas proposições advindas das entrevistas sobre a marca com apelo nostálgico e a influência na identificação do consumidor e a intenção de compra, o tempo de relacionamento de um grupo social com a propensão à nostalgia dos membros do grupo e a intenção de compra e o apelo nostálgico (em produtos e mensagens) e a intenção de compra moderados pelo nível de valorização do consumidor pela sua cultura. Esta pesquisa, juntamente com a pesquisa bibliográfica, serviu de base empírica para o estudo quantitativo e para as hipóteses da pesquisa relacionadas ao apelo nostálgico no produto e na mensagem moderados pelo envolvimento com o produto e a propensão à nostalgia e as influências na atitude em relação à propaganda, atitude em relação ao produto e na intenção de compra. Para o trabalho quantitativo foram realizados dois estudos, um estudo foi de caráter piloto, com três experimentos cada que permitiram o teste das hipóteses por meio de análise de variância e análise de covariância. Entre os resultados, observou-se que o uso combinado entre o apelo nostálgico na mensagem e no produto possui um efeito melhor na apresentação de uma propaganda o que facilita a compreensão dos consumidores. O apelo nostálgico no produto influenciou diretamente na atitude em relação à propaganda, atitude em relação ao produto e na intenção de compra. As diferenças entre os sexos e as classes sociais dos respondentes e o achado em relação ao envolvimento com o produto e a propensão à nostalgia como covariáveis foram evidenciados. Ao final, são apresentadas as considerações finais, as implicações teóricas e práticas, as limitações e direcionamentos futuros.

The primary goal of this study is to observe how the meaning of nostalgia is negotiated and remediated in Li Ziqi’s short videos, and understand the construction and expression of pastoral images in the video, by examining its social modality of the audiencing site and the compositional and social modalities of the image site through a Critical Visual Approach(CVA). Except for CVA, Remix as a thinking tool helps to frame data selection, mixed methods and theories throughout. To be specific, the aim of this study is to examine Li Ziqi’s communication of nostalgia online via short videos, showcases how the pastoral characteristics are evoked in the videos and the relationship between nostalgia of pastoral life and short videos. Moreover, it is of interest to think about what nostalgia communication on short videos say about society. When it comes to the two sites, firstly, an ethnographic method of thick descriptions is used to study media text and selected comments on the audiencing site. Secondly, on the image site, compositional analysis on selected visual materials is used to examine its compositions and then signs and meanings embedded in them are analyzed through semiotic analysis and interpreted by thick descriptions. As for theories, nostalgia and media, the logic of social acceleration, remediation and new media, and simulacra and simulation are applied to facilitate discussion.

Smedsudden var en gång i tiden en sprudlande udde fylld med konst och skapande, klädd i lummig natur och inramad av svalkande vatten. Med årens gång har udden glömts bort, husen därpå har brunnit och rivits ner. Nu står endast det nergångna Annexet kvar. I detta projekt har jag re-aktiverat Smedsudden genom att rusta upp Annexet som Café med tillhörande Orangeri, tillfört en dansbana i Annexets kulturellt nostalgiska stil, och skapat ett konstmagasin med uppsikt att återigen tända Smedsuddens konstnärliga gnista. Här, mitt i Stockholm, upphör stadsmyllret för en stund och skapar med hjälp av detta projekt återigen en oas för kreativitet, livsglädje och nöje.The cape of Smedsudden depicts a story of a place robbed of its former cultural identity; once a flourishing spot for artists and celebra-tion, it is now rendered barren and culturally obsolete. My project exists as a retort to this delapidation. It conveys a vision of what Smedsud-den could become, and relays to it a new sense of purpose. The new structures on the site are designed to evoke a sense of nostalgia, all the while displaying a delicate touch of Smedsuddens own historical presence. This version of Smedsudden provides the people of Stock-holm with the oppurtunity to reexperience the historically ever-present combination of social leisure and cultural enrichment in the context of idyllic countryside vistas, of vibrant river landscapes and lush foliage — in the heart of Stockholm.

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
Nostalgia is a psychological phenomenon we all can relate to but have a hard time to define. What characterizes the mental state of feeling nostalgia? What psychological function does it serve? Different published materials in a wide range of fields, from consumption research and sport science to clinical psychology, psychoanalysis and sociology, all have slightly different definition of this mental experience. Some claim it is a psychiatric disease giving melancholic emotions to a memory you would consider a happy one, while others state it enforces positivity in our mood. First in this paper a thorough review of the history of nostalgia is presented, then a look at the body of contemporary nostalgia research to see what it could be constituted of. Finally, we want to dig even deeper to see what is suggested by the literature in terms of triggers and functions. Some say that digitally recorded material like music and videos has a potential nostalgic component, which could trigger a reflection of the past in ways that was difficult before such inventions. Hinting towards that nostalgia as a cultural phenomenon is on a rising scene. Some authors say that odors have the strongest impact on nostalgic reverie due to activating it without too much cognitive appraisal. Cognitive neuropsychology has shed new light on a lot of human psychological phenomena‘s and even though empirical testing have been scarce in this field, it should get a fair scrutiny within this perspective as well and hopefully helping to clarify the definition of the word to ease future investigations, both scientifically speaking and in laymen‘s retro hysteria.Keywords:

An archetype for nostalgia withholds moments, suspending time in a state between memory and anticipation. Gravity plays an essential role in creating time in architecture: it gives physicality to the transience, allows time to be experienced with one's senses and imagination. In that sense, time is neither metaphorical and prescriptive, but physical and personal. Using the physical context of Fort Point Channel as the stimulus for intellectual thinking, the thesis project strives to discover how the idea of an urban ruin can inspire new forms of spatial-temporal experience. The physical and spiritual qualities of the Greek temples, in particular the Doric Order, are analyzed in order to understand the fundamentals in architecture such as Absence, Gravity and the Order of space and matter. Through the resurrection of time and memory in architecture, the new archetype allows one to become closer in touch with his senses, thus finding purpose to his own existence.

Using the form of an essay I discuss the preservation of built heritage from the 'difficult' histories of colonialism and enslavement, linking together the global stories of oppression through colonialism and slavery to the global tourism and pressure for economic growth today. I focus on Yangon, Myanmar (Rangoon, Burma), which has the world's largest collection of Victorian and Edwardian colonial architecture. Years of active neglect by the military government have preserved these aging structures, but this era is coming to an end amid with often conflicting pressures to modernize and campaigns to actively restore the historic downtown. In this thesis I explore the politics of preservation and the market forces of international tourism that have led to nostalgic restorations of colonial relations for elite travelers.

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
This paper is a theoretical and aesthetic exploration of my MFA thesis film- an autobiographical documentary. This documentary was entirely shot in China, with both high-definition footage and Super 8 film; it takes a journey in my hometown to discuss the contemporary housing problem across generations in modern China. By focusing on ordinary family life, the film attempts to reveal the tension and conflicts arising between Chinese people's need for roots and the shifting socioeconomic system. The first part of the paper addresses the highly contrasted filmic textures that establish various temporal dimensions in the film. Taking an autobiographical approach, the first person perspective is employed to connect these times and spaces. The second part of the paper will examine the subjectivity in the film and discuss how the self functions as a storyteller, an outsider and a family member at the same time. The following chapter will visit the physical familiar space. The lens searches for marks and signs left by everyday practices, in order to trace the change of the concept of home in Chinese culture after the invasion of industrialization and consumerism. Such an enormous socioeconomic transformation has eventually given birth to a wave of nostalgia in contemporary China. This nostalgia answers a cultural need that counters the irresistible process of modernization, urbanization and commercialization in the transitional China.

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
Modernity has changed the world and subsequently has caused emotional wounds and a sense of nostalgia for those pleasant times and places left in the past. In fact, nostalgia and modernity were two principle notions that people face in the early 20th century. This study calls on the notion of nostalgia defined by J. Wilson, which suggests that hard life situations and modernity enforcing unwanted changes in life, bring a feeling for the past like missing something left behind. Taking Wilson’s definition as a point of departure, this study analyses the protagonist's nostalgic feeling and nostalgia in the novel Coming Up For Air written by George Orwell. It also compares Coming Up For Air with two other Orwell’s writings which demonstrate that a grief for legacy of the past is recurrent in his writings. In addition, this study argues that nostalgia is not only a sentimental motion or mourning for the lost past but it also creates a pleasant space for the protagonist to recover from hardships caused by the modern life in the early 20th century. This study investigates the protagonist’s returning to his childhood town to make his dream of home real. The notion of Place Attachment by Ben Dowler is applied in this study, which demonstrates that the hometown means happiness and a safe place for the protagonist because he was in connection with a sense of happiness and joy in that place. In addition, Abraham Maslow’s theory about human basic needs, which demonstrates that the protagonist looks for a safe place because of his aroused basic need of being secure in the war times, is addressed. Furthermore, this study applies Sigmund Freud’s theory of Mental Structure. The theory is about the three layers of mind from instinct to mature and demonstrates that three different layers of the protagonist’s mind lead him to reply differently to his need of returning home. The main claim of this theory is that although the protagonist has no control over his aroused basic need for security, the mature one makes him more connected to the real world and helps him to cope with his nostalgia.

Morrison, John. "Rural nostalgia : painting in Scotland c.1860-1880". Thesis, University of St Andrews, 1989. http://hdl.handle.net/10023/6481.
Texto completo da fonteResumo:
A work of "rural nostalgia" is a distorted image of a past, or passing rural existence produced in the period c.1860-1880. It is distorted in such a way as to heighten the emotional impact of the work and to emphasize the inherent moral message carried by the painting. This message is always the same. In precisely the same terms as contemporary commentators, the painters lauded those aspects of human existence thought to be essential for a humane civilised society and felt to be being destroyed by the urbanisation of man. Hence family life, the home and community life were praised. Along with individual human relationships, society's provision of both temporal and religious education were seen as vital. These linked factors, so prevalent in rural life. were thus also frequently portrayed, praised and give an implicitly rural setting. The ambivalent response to their industrial society of mid-Victorian Scots. themselves engaged in commerce and industry, found expression in the work of artists such as G.P. Chalmers and George Reid. In effect the collectors of rural nostalgia. convinced of the educative role of art, sought to promote a more responsible, caring, society through their purchasing and subsequent lending out of rural nostalgia paintings. The paintings themselves. though heavily imbued with the spirit of contemporary Calvinist Scotland, were philosophically influenced by John Ruskin and by French "Realist" writing and criticism. They were practically influenced by nineteenth century Dutch painting. The significance of the painters of rural nostalgia lies not in their formal innovations, though they were technically of considerable importance to the later "Glasgow School", it lies in the alternative view they afford of the motivations and concerns of the patrons and practitioners of painting in Scotland in the third quarter of the nineteenth century.

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
When outdoor recreational activities are restricted, where can we find solitude, exploration and self-reliance? Endangered Experiences in Nature is a project that creates disruptive scenarios to question the relationship we have now with landscapes. A forecast in which stargazing is replaced by watching cyborg fireflies in the sky, food is genetically engineered and getting lost can only happen with the aid of special devices. The thesis uses the tools of experience design and future studies to explore the meanings and values of nature. I analyze the experiential perspective of access to nature and outdoor recreation by focusing on experiences that will likely become inaccessible in the near future. This thesis is not about preservation but stands aspiring for recreating values humans got until now from the close relationship with natural settings. In doing so, I aspire to generate new experiences. My work therefore focuses not on what nature is but what it means to perceive something as being natural, wild, unexplored, in an age where every part of nature has been explored and exploited. My original contribution focuses on using nostalgia as an active method to create new relationships with our environment. Certain things will need to be “artificial” in order to achieve “real” experiences. The project will focus on three scenarios placed in the near future (2040). Each case study extrapolates on a particular endangered experience in wilderness (solitude, exploration and self-reliance) and is set in 3 distinct landscapes located in The Netherlands, Sweden and Romania. By doing so, I touch upon different cultural and natural influences on my design process. All scenarios encompass artificial (engineered) surrogates that question the inaccessibility to experiences in natural landscapes. With the goal to create counter-experiences in the future and therefore formulate a new way to deal with our relationship with nature conceptually and physically.

Grainge, Paul. "Monochrome memories : nostalgia and style in 1990s America". Thesis, University of Nottingham, 2000. http://eprints.nottingham.ac.uk/12833/.
Texto completo da fonteResumo:
Memory is central to the way that cultures produce, negotiate and contest ideas of nationhood. This work examines how, as an aesthetic mode of nostalgia, the black and white image was used in the 1990s to establish and legitimate particular kinds of memory within American cultural life. It locates the production of visual (monochrome) memory in different forms of cultural media and explores how attempts were made in the nineties to authorize a consensual past, a core memory - what might be called an archival essence - for a stable and unified concept of "America." The 1990s were a period when liberal ideologies of nationhood and mythologies of Americanness came under particular, and intensified, pressure. In a time when national identity was being undermined by transnational political and economic restructuring, when ideas of national commonality were being challenged by an emergent politics of difference, and when the metanarratives of memory were straining for legitimacy against the multiple pasts of the marginalized, the desire to stabilize the configuration and perceived transmission of American cultural identity became a defining aspect of hegemonic memory politics. By considering monochrome memory in nineties mass media, I look at the way that a particular "nostalgia mode" was used stylistically within visual culture and was taken up within a discourse of stable nationhood. By examining the production and visuality of aestheticized nostalgia, I make a cultural but also a conceptual argument. Much of the contemporary work on nostalgia is bound in critiques of its reactionary politics, its sanitization of history, or its symptomatic contribution to the amnesiac tendencies of postmodern culture. I explore the subject from the vantage point of cultural studies, mediating between theories that understand nostalgia in terms of cultural longing and/or postmodern forgetting. I account for the manner in which nostalgia has become divorced from any necessary concept of loss, but, also, how particular modes of nostalgia have been used affectively in the mass media to perform specific cultural and memory work. Critically, I examine nostalgia as a cultural style, anchoring a set of questions that can be asked of its signifying and political functionality in the visual narratives of the dominant media.

As a positive, social emotion, nostalgia has the potential to reduce the negative impact of social exclusion on empathy. I ran a series of experiments in order to establish the relationship between nostalgia, social exclusion, and empathy. In Studies 1 and 2, participants were instructed to recall either a nostalgic or ordinary autobiographical experience and then read an essay ostensibly written by another participant describing a physically painful ordeal. Afterwards, the participants were asked to report the level of empathy that they felt for the person who wrote the essay. Participants who had previously recalled a nostalgic event reported significantly higher levels of empathy than those who had recalled an ordinary event. In Studies 3 and 4, participants were given randomly assigned future alone, future belonging, or control feedback. Participants who were given future alone (compared to future belonging or control) feedback reported significantly higher levels of nostalgia. Study 5 examined nostalgia’s ability to directly counteract social threats. Individuals who were exposed to a future alone (compared to future belonging) feedback reported lower levels of empathy when they were instructed to recall an ordinary autobiographical experience. However, the future alone manipulation had no significant effect on empathy when participants recalled a nostalgic experience. The results suggest that nostalgia may function as an adaptive reaction to social exclusion, and can prevent people from becoming emotionally numb after being excluded
