Hovet i Hovshaga : Kult och samhälle i det förhistoriska folklandet Värend

Gustav, Gunnarsson January 2016 (has links)
This study aims to inquire into the pre-historic cult and the power structures in the folkland Värend, a region in present days Kronoberg County in Småland Sweden. The district Hovshaga is located at the northern outskirts of Växjö, the provincial capital. According to linguistic- and place name studies (toponymy) “hof” implies an Iron Age central place with a high probability of ritual cult presence.   The toponymy of this district serve as the outset of this inquiry, using archeological records and reports on Värend as my empiric material coupled with prehistoric place-name studies and studies of hierarchies, Norse mythology, phenomenology and a little bit of sociology I hope to make some of the social dynamics of Värend become visible.

Embodying topeng : gender, training and intercultural encounters

Strawson, Tiffany January 2016 (has links)
This research centres on the Balinese performance tradition known as topeng which translates as Balinese masked dance-drama. In Bali this genre is performed traditionally in spaces reserved for religious ceremonies. The research questions the extent to which, and how, it may be possible for a non-Balinese person to embody a culturally coded, sacred object (the mask) and how a woman is able to make meaning and express herself within a genre which is traditionally the preserve of men. The research has therefore sought to develop an individual and intercultural approach to both the design of new masks and their performance. The thesis critiques modes of cultural understanding in relation to notions of balance, based on colonial and dualistic trajectories between Bali and the UK. Alternative modes of exchange explore in-between and hybrid space that is informed by Lo and Gilbert’s dynamic model of intercultural practice which they visualise as a ‘spinning disc held by an elastic band’ (Gilbert and Lo 2002: 45). The key issues explored are notions of training; the relocation of ritual and the cultural specificities of ‘home’; mask-making and design; non-Balinese stories on which to base alternative performances of topeng, ones that more strongly position female characters; and finally the embodiment of Balinese masks from a traditional and also a somatic perspective. The practical form the research takes is through making masks and devising performances, the outcomes of which form a part of the thesis. The thesis both discusses and practically demonstrates how particular modes of embodiment, for instance cakra work, somatics and experiential anatomy may serve as strategies to communicate to a Western perspective how to bring ‘life’ to the mask, how to make it ‘work’ from a Balinese position and how these modes can assist in the process of intercultural (self) translation.
