Há pelo menos duas tendências significativas entre aqueles que, de final do século XIX ao início do século XXI, têm tomado Dube como objeto ou sujeito de interesse. Assim, de um lado, há aqueles que tendem a identificar Dube como colaborador da implementação do regime segregacionista sul-africano. Nesta perspectiva, que é dominante nos anos 1950-1970, Dube é visto como um zulu influente, mas que teria se tornado fantoche dos brancos, um incentivador da solidariedade racial em detrimento daquela de classes e, como tal, promotor dos fundamentos do Apartheid. De outro lado, a exemplo do que ocorre nos dias atuais no contexto da Nação Arco-Íris, há aqueles que veem em Mafukuzela um personagem central das lutas históricas contra a segregação racial, inscrevendo-o como uma espécie de herói sulafricano. Aqui, Dube é reabilitado como sujeito envolvido nas lutas pela liberdade e cuja vida seria exemplo de que, nas origens da nação sul-africana moderna, haveria formas claras de relações raciais harmônicas entre brancos e negros. Embora distintas, essas formas de inscrever Mafukuzela se relacionariam tanto às opções que ele tomara ao longo de sua vida, quanto aos modos como os intérpretes se posicionam diante dos seus atos, palavras e silêncios, e em relação à história da África do Sul e, especialmente, do Apartheid (1948- 1994). Além disso, e paralelo à evidência de que existe uma relação direta entre as formas de conceber Dube e os modos de interpretar a história das relações raciais na África do Sul, notasse que as intervenções teóricas e práticas de e sobre John Dube se alicerçam e fomentam determinadas concepções de história e desenvolvimento, raça, cultura e nação. Neste contexto, são dominantes concepções progressistas de desenvolvimento social e histórico, apresentadas como universais, embora perspectivas diferentes, que consideram, por exemplo, especificidades culturais, também possam ser observadas. / Defender of the humanity of African peoples, the creator of the first newspaper and author of the first novel in isiZulu, and founder of the African National Congress, John Langalibalele Mafukuzela Dube (1871-1946) was a central figure in modern South African history. There are at least two significant trends among those in which, at the turn of the nineteenth to twentieth centuries, Dube was the object or subject of interest. Thus, on one hand, there are those who tend to identify Dube as a collaborator in the implementation of South Africa’s segregationist regime. From this perspective, which predominated from the 1950s to the 1970s, Dube is seen as an influential Zulu who became a puppet of the whites by encouraging racial solidarity at the expense of class, and therefore promoting one of the pillars of Apartheid. On the other hand, as we are seeing today in the context of the Rainbow Nation, there are those who see Mafukuzela as a central figure in the historical struggle against racial segregation, presenting him as a South African hero. Here, Dube is rehabilitated as a leading figure in the struggle for freedom, and his life is seen as a clear example of harmonious relations between whites and blacks at the very beginning of the South African nation. Although different, these ways of inscribing Mafukuzela in history are both related to the choices he made throughout his lifetime and the standpoints of those who interpret his actions, words and silences, and their views of South African history, particularly Apartheid (1948-1994). Furthermore, and in parallel to the evidence we have of a direct relationship between ways of perceiving Dube and interpretations of the history of South African race relations, we can see that the theoretical and practical work done by and about John Dube consolidate and promote specific concepts of history and the development of race, culture and nation. In this context, the predominant concepts of social and historic development are progressive and presented as universal, although different perspectives, considering, for example, cultural specificities, can also be observed.

“The present work has been approached as a Mission Study. This is a wide enough category, but if I have had a model in mind, it has been E.J. Sharpe's study of the thought of J.N. Farquhar, published in the series, “Studia Missionalia Upsaliensia” ¹⁰ I have tried to take account of J. Kent's appeal, in an essay on “The History of Christian Missions in the Modern Era”, to take secular history more seriously “for its own sake”, than was the case in an earlier generation of mission studies.¹¹ Not that any other study of Andrews would have made much sense, so active and perspicuous a participant was he in that history. I have also suggested that it is helpful to see Andrews within the special context of The Cambridge Mission to Delhi and its distinctive theology of mission, and indeed, my argument that this theology found a new authentication in his work during these years, provides a framework to the thesis. Two omissions ought to be justified, I have not attempted an elaborate review of the 19th century background of “Protestant missionary thought”, desirable as this might have been, because this has been done very thoroughly in the first part of Sharpe's study referred to above. Sharpe's omission, however, of the Cambridge Mission to Delhi and of “the missions of the Catholic tradition” (“with one exception, the Oxford mission to Calcutta”) because they lie to “one side of the dominant Evangelical stream of missionary thought”, provides a convenient space in which to establish the distinctive approach of the Delhi Mission.¹² Another omission is any general survey of the history of the Cambridge Mission, partly because a useful one is already available, by F.J. Western, but partly also because the essential context of Andrews' work was the completely new situation that developed almost immediately after his arrival in India, for which the earlier activities of the Mission provided no precedents. The sources used are exclusively English sources for English was almost exclusively the language in which the matter of Indian nationalism at this stage, and of Hindu reformation and of much of progressive Indian Islam occurred.¹³ For the unpublished sources for this study, I have relied largely on the well-known collections, in particular the archives of the C.M.D. and of S.P.G., the papers of two of the viceroys, Minto and Hardinge, and the correspondence of Tagore, Munshi Ram and Gandhi. The published sources have been in many ways quite as important as the unpublished, for Andrews became, from late 1906, something of a compulsive communicator in the nationalist press, and the evidence for his developing thought is to a considerable extent in print here. Many of these published sources are excessively rare. Thus, for example, there is, in India, only one surviving run of the St. Stephen's College Magazine for these years, and the same is true of the journal, Young Men of India, while there is in Britain only one microfilm copy of the nationalist newspaper, the Tribune, so important for this study. Because of the interest of much of this source material, and a wish to make it more accessible, I have allowed the notes to tend towards the copious. A full account of these sources is given in the Bibliography. Although, as is said above, Andrews' approach to his work, as representing a sort of realization of a distinctive theology of mission, provides a thesis on which this study is constructed, it is perhaps more important simply to claim a profound intrinsic interest in the story of this "gentle, eager and many-sided saint” ¹⁴ and in his perception of the necessities, still far from fulfilled, of a Christian response to the Asian revolution.” – from the Introduction.

Pressupomos que a personagem segue modelos de representação do feminino, tradicionalmente difundidos pela literatura, especialmente nas obras naturalistas, em que se elege a fallen woman como protagonista de diversas histórias de degradação e morte. Por meio do estudo feito sobre a mulher prostituta na literatura, fomos capazes de refletir a respeito da condição feminina, no século XIX, observando a incapacidade da personagem de se integrar socialmente, entre outros problemas acarretados pela vida degradada que experimenta. Moradora de cortiços, está retratada por Crane em um ambiente selvagem, nesse caso, na cidade de Nova York, em pleno desenvolvimento industrial. Apesar de ser personagem protagonista, o autor acentua o aspecto frágil e ingênuo da personagem, apresentando-a como se fosse intelectual e moralmente inferior, incapaz de atuar contra a fatalidade já predeterminada, realizando uma crítica da situação da mulher trabalhadora naquele contexto. Sabemos que o autor assume postura antagônica a de seus predecessores, românticos, e, por essa razão, caracteriza Maggie enfatizando os conceitos românticos na construção da personagem, no intuito de se opor às regras formais e ideológicas do Romantismo. A característica fundamental de Crane é a ironia presente na narrativa, em que as circunstâncias se mostram mais contraditórias revelando valores morais, do mesmo modo, conflitantes. Analisamos a representação da mulher marginal na literatura, bem como procuramos esclarecer alguns... / The thesis examines the image of the prostitute in Maggie: A Girl Of The Streets of Stephen Crane, published in 1896 focusing the concepts of feminist criticizes assumed to read and interpret the character Maggie Johnson. It reading from the female experience of interpretation, giving new meaning with this new reading. We assume that the character follows models of representation of women, traditionally widespreaded in the literature, especially in naturalistic works. They elect a fallen woman as the protagonist of several stories of degradation and death. Through the study on women prostitutes in the literature, we were able to reflect on the condition of women in the nineteenth century, noting the inability of the character to integrate socially, among other problems caused by life experiences that degraded. Resident of slums is portrayed by Crane in a wild and degrading environment, in this case, the city of New York, in full industrial development. Despite being the protagonist character, the author highlights the fragile and naive aspect of the character, presenting it as if it was morally and intellectually inferior, unable to act against the already predetermined fate, with a critical situation of working women in that context. We know that the author takes an antagonistic stance of his predecessors, romantics, and, therefore, characterizes Maggie emphasizing romantic concepts in building character, in order to oppose the ideological and formal rules of Romanticism. A key feature of Crane's irony in this story, which conditions are more revealing conflicting moral values, similarly conflicting. We analyze the representation of women in marginal literature and seek to clarify some stereotypes that served to represent the woman

Deux écrivains contemporains, l'un francais, l'autre russe soviétique, ont ressenti vivement le passage inexorable du temps. Ils se sont mis à cueillir les souvenirs et les impressions de l'enfance afin de recréer le "paradis de l'enfance" et ainsi figer la vie passagère et retrouver "le temps perdu". Marcel Proust (1871 - 1922), auteur français du magnifique roman A la Recherche du temps perdu, et Ossip Emilievich Mandel'shtam (1891 - 1938), auteur russe du chef-d'oeuvre Shum Vremeni (Le Bruit du temps), se sont voués, chacun de son côté, à mettre à jour leurs premières sensations et impressions. Dans ces deux oeuvres plus ou moins autobiographiques, le Temps se montre comme personnage principal. Chez tous les deux écrivains nous trouvons un culte passionné des valeurs intellectuelles, une sensibilité développée à l'extrême, un sens du passé et une préoccupation soucieuse de sa conservation. L'objet de cette thèse est, premièrement, de faire plusieurs analogies entre les ambiances familiales et intellectuelles des deux écrivains, entre leurs caractères également sensibles et impressionnables, et entre leurs sentiments et idées philosophiques et psychologiques. On peut faire une analyse détaillée des techniques individuelles qui ont joué un rôle si important dans l'oeuvre de chacun, et, ensuite, rapprocher les méthodes employées pour réaliser leurs tentatives surhumaines, c'est-à-dire, les façons dont chacun a réussi à retrouver le temps perdu. La recherche du réel chez Mandel'shtam, comme chez Proust, commence avec les souvenirs d'enfance, ainsi qu'avee les premières impressions mystérieuses. Tandis que Proust affirme à tout instant la prédominance de la perception affective en cherchant un rapport mystique avec l'Absolu, Mandel'shtam affirme la suprématie de l'élément logique et concret dans l'oeuvre. C'est la capacité de Mandel'shtam, selon M. Gleb Struve, de contenir le général dans le concret qui donne la valeur particulière a son impression du "temps perdu". L'ouvrage de Mandel'shtam, comme celui de Proust, montre un sens historique et un sentiment vif du temps vécu. Leurs oeuvres géniales incarnent leur visions personnelles de la vie temporelle et la vie extra-temporelle. En s'élevant au-dessus du temps, Proust et Mandel'shtam ont pénétré1 le mystère de l'éternel—ils sont arrivés à l'essence de la vie. Tous deux ont réussi définitivement à conjurer et, ensuite, enserrer à jamais dans les toiles fines de leurs oeuvres le Temps élusif et passager. / Arts, Faculty of / English, Department of / Graduate

The central concern of this dissertation is to understand the nature of political authority in pre-Confederation British Columbia through an examination of the colony's law and its courts. In British Columbia, as in other parts of the Anglo-North American world, the law was closely associated with maintaining and upholding political authority, by contributing to both its institutional and ethical foundations. The ability of states to do acts of a specified nature and to impose sanctions if impeded-- its authority -- rests on consent to the "rule of law." The rule of law encompasses the idea that everyone is subject to the same rules of conduct, sanctions and rewards regardless of his condition. Ultimately, the rule of law guarantees equality in an otherwise inequitable world. Commentators have pointed out that the rule of law is a fiction. Law is normative, and hence the authority it upholds is as well. In British Columbia the rule of law was firmly tied to the market, not the moral economy. British Columbia's law and courts bore the imprint of the colony's commercial economy and its geography. Colonial law and the courts provided a rule-bound arena in which to resolve disputes in a predictable, efficient and standardized manner that suited the demands of a market economy. Capitalism also profoundly shaped the ethical basis on which political authority in British Columbia rested. Commerce involved people in complex relationships. Trials to resolve commercial disputes reflected this complexity. They were lengthy affairs which generated masses of detailed and often technical information. If the demands of the commercial economy for predictable, efficient and standardized conflict resolution were to be met, the Intervention of experts, like lawyers, who could impose order on this mass of information was necessary. Political authority In British Columbia became less paternal and resident in the person of the Judge, and more textual and embedded in printed statutes, precedents and legal texts, as well as the experts who could interpret them. / Arts, Faculty of / History, Department of / Graduate

The general theme of this thesis is Paternity and the Search for Knowledge in the works of James Joyce and Marcel Proust, specifically, in A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, Ulysses, and A la Recherche du Temps Perdu. Two main sets of characters are compared in the novels; the young artists, or would-be artists, Stephen and Marcel, and the older, experienced men-of-the-world who become their mentors, Bloom and Swann. Both young artists must overcome a fear of the physical world which tends to make them ineffectual dreamers, self-romanticizers. Stephen has been taught to deny the physical side of his nature by family and society. Marcel's fear of suffering and overdependence on others also has its origin in his family life. Neither young poet can create until he has been immersed in the physical experience of life, and has attained that knowledge of good and evil in himself and others which is the goal of his quest. Bloom and Swann are ‘father-figures’ in two senses; they 'educate' the young lads by initiating them into life, and they are themselves very much involved in the cycles of physical creation. Their roles are discussed in the light of various mythologies; specifically; Classical, Medieval, and Jewish. An intensive study of flower imagery in the three novels helps to elucidate further their roles as 'Earth-Fathers.' / Arts, Faculty of / English, Department of / Graduate

This thesis examines the forces behind British Columbia's entry into the Canadian Federation in 1871 by examining the historical and structural circumstances surrounding the relative stages of economic development in the Colony and the British metropolis. The thesis argues that British Columbia's entry into Confederation occured within the total framework of capitalist expansion in the nineteenth century. It occured within the context of British imperialism. The instruments of British imperialism and the character of economic development in the hinterland region of the Pacific Northwest, however, changed as the economic structure of England changed. The road to Confederation for British Columbia—as for Canada—was essentially determined by a shift in the economic structure of England from merchant to industrial capitalism. At a lower level of generality, the thesis concludes that a triangle of trade and capital investment existed between Victoria, San Francisco and London, and through London,to Montreal. This metropolitan network tied the Colony to Great Britain and ultimately to Canada. The ruling class of British Columbia was firmly linked to British capital, and it actively sought, in London, Montreal and Victoria, the achievement of Confederation. / Arts, Faculty of / Political Science, Department of / Graduate
