“Red classics” generally refer to a collection of Chinese literary works produced from the late 1940s to the mid-1960s. Many of them were remade to film, opera, and television series in different periods. One of the “red classics” was the semi-autobiographical military romance Tracks in the Snowy Forest by Qu Bo. This novel and its many adaptations have been popular for more than half a century. This thesis takes Tracks in the Snowy Forest as a case study to explore how socialist “red classic” works have been “de-revolutionized,” reinvented for a new age and a new audience as products for popular consumption in post-Mao China, as compared to the sterner revolutionary works of the Mao era. / Graduate

O universo da menina que nasceu em Roma no mesmo ano da 1º Guerra; da jovem que escolheu fazer arquitetura, até então um curso tipicamente masculino, e depois ir morar sozinha em Milão; da mulher que decidiu deixar seu país, para construir, junto com o seu marido, uma nova história no Brasil. Um universo costurado pelo tema habitat, que foi elaborado por Lina ao longo de sua vida, revelando diferentes sentidos, dimensões, sem perder, contudo, o princípio de simplicidade e o de morar em harmonia com a natureza.Habitat que revelou-se ingênuo e introspectivo nas aquarelas, crítico e racional nos textos e nas ilustrações, funcional e popular nos projetos e crônicas. As diferentes dimensões do habitat foram reveladas, na tese, por meio da análise de documentos, levantados no Instituto Lina Bo e Pietro Maria Bardi, que confirmam a relevância do tema na obra de Lina.Essas dimensões, por sua vez, suscitaram formas específicas de habitações, que materializaram esses sentidos e resgataram as“formas perdidas”, tão utilizadas por Lina nas suas obras, e que geraram pelo menos três tipos de residências: as Casas das Estórias, as Casas das Revistas e as Casas das Crônicas. Essa divisão ajuda a compreender melhor o universo habitacional de Lina e mesmo a sua obra, mostrando que as casas de Lina são partes representativas do todo. _______________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT / The houses of Lina Bo Bardi are many: the houses that she painted in her childhood, when she studied at the “Liceo ArtisiticoMamiani”, the houses she designed and described in her articles on Italian journals, in which she worked in the early yearsafter graduation, and the houses that she designed and sketched here in Brazil in her adulthood.These houses make up a rich, dense and complex universe: the universe called Lina. The universe of the girl who was bornin Rome in the same year of the 1st World War, the young woman who chose architecture, until then a typically maleprofession, and then who left to live alone in Milan; woman who decided to leave her country to build, along with herhusband, a new history in Brazil. A universe tailored by the habitat theme, which was elaborated by Lina throughout her life,revealing different directions, dimensions, without losing, however, the principle of simplicity of living in harmony with nature.This habitat was naive and introspective in watercolors, rational and critical in texts and illustrations, functional and popular indesigns and chronics. The different dimensions of habitat were primarily revealed through the analysis of documents foundin the Lina Bo and Pietro Maria Bardi Institute, confirming the relevance of the theme in the work of Lina.These dimensions, in turn, gave rise to specific forms of housing, which materialized these senses and rescued the "lostforms", as used by Lina in her works, and that generated at least three types of housings: the Houses of Stories, theHouses of Journals and of the Houses of Chronicles. This division helps to better understand the universe of Lina andeven her work, showing that the houses of Lina are representative part of the whole.

A pesquisa objetiva estudar o design de móveis e os interiores concebidos por Lina Bo Bardi entre 1947 e 1968, período em que a arquiteta desenvolve projetos que são produto de sua experiência na Itália e no Brasil. Sob esta perspectiva, a investigação de um período anterior a seu traslado para o Brasil é fundamental para resgatar fatos históricos, políticos e sócio-culturais, como também os postulados modernos, a predisposição dos arquitetos de estender suas funções ao design de mobiliário e o advento do neo-realismo italiano que fazem parte da formação de Lina Bo. Imbuída deste contexto e no desejo de configurar uma identidade brasileira, Lina Bo Bardi realiza uma observação antropológica um atento olhar na busca de temas locais que concilia aos conceitos modernos internacionalizados. Ela considera materiais, técnicas, tradições, costumes, natureza, arte, artesanato ou pré-artesanato, cultura e sociedade do país que adota. Esta conduta traduz, para sua arquitetura, interiores e mobiliário, vários tipos de integração edificação e entorno, interior e exterior, móvel e ambiente, vernáculo e móvel, arte e povo , muitas vezes constituindo uma inequívoca mimética, não só entre a arquitetura e seu habitat, como, também, entre o design de móveis e os de elementos da terra. É relevante destacar o desenvolvimento desta postura que confere ao móvel e, conseqüentemente, ao ambiente, uma feição peculiarmente moderna com um caráter de brasilidade, oferecendo uma importante contribuição à nossa cultura material. / The objective of the research is to study the design of the furniture and interiors that were conceived by Lina Bo Bardi between 1947 and 1968, a period during which the architect developed projects that were the result of her experiences in Italy and Brazil. From this perspective the investigation into a period prior to her arrival in Brazil is fundamental when it comes to recovering the historical, political, social and cultural facts, as well as the modern postulates, the predisposition of architects to extend their functions to designing furniture and the rise of Italian neo-realism, all of which form part of the background of Lina Bo. Heavily influenced by this context and with her desire to shape a Brazilian identity Lina Bo Bardi observes in an anthropological way takes a close look in her search for local themes which reconciles the modern internationalized concepts. She considers the materials, techniques, traditions, customs, nature, art, handicrafts or pre-handicrafts, culture and society of the country she adopted. This transfers various types of integration buildings and their surroundings, interiors and exteriors, furniture and the environment, the vernacular and furniture, art and the people -, into her architecture, her interiors and her furniture, which often constitute an unequivocal mimicry, not only between the architecture and its habitat, but also between the design of furniture and the elements from the land. It is important to highlight the development of this posture that provides the piece of furniture and consequently the environment with features that are particularly modern and with a sense of Brazilianity, thus making an important contribution to our material culture.

[pt] A obra de Lina Bo Bardi é multifacetada não só pela quantidade de campos profissionais de atuação como o design, a arquitetura, a cenografia, museografia e a restauração, mas também pela quantidade de questões e conceitos abordados em seus diversos ensaios. Na Europa, a arquiteta, em meio a impossibilidade do fazer arquitetônico em virtude da guerra, toma a escrita como um outro caminho para o fazer arquitetônico. Os ensaios escritos por ela no período de 1943 a 1991 são a base da pesquisa, a partir da análise deles e da documentação gráfica, foi possível observar a presença dos conceitos de experiência e pobreza presentes ao longo da obra da arquiteta, tanto nos textos quanto nos outros campos de atuação. Tratando-se dos conceitos de pobreza e experiência, foi estabelecido um tensionamento entre a leitura de Lina Bo Bardi e a de Walter Benjamin que também trabalhou intensamente com esse tema ao longo de sua obra. A aproximação entre os teóricos são muitas, são dadas não só por terem partilhados um ambiente de guerra que os levou a observar a pobreza da experiência em virtude dos traumas e dos silenciamentos causados pelas destruições e pelos conflitos, mas também por partilharem visões similares quanto a crítica da modernidade, as relações de produção e a mudança das formas de moradia. Em suma, a visão de Benjamin sobre esses conceitos não foi somente a base para o mapeamento destes na obra de Lina Bo Bardi, mas também uma chave de leitura dessa atuação multifacetada da arquiteta. / [fr] L oeuvre de Lina Bo Bardi est multiforme non seulement par la quantité de domaines professionnels d expertise, l architecture, la scénographie, muséographie et la restauration, mais aussi par la quantité de questions et concepts abordés dans leurs essais. En Europe, la architecte, au milieu de l incapacité de construire en raison de la guerre prend l écriture comme l autre façon de faire de l architecture. Les essais écrits par elle en 1943-1991 sont la base de cette recherche, et à partir de leurs analyse, et de la documentation graphique, nous avons pu d observer la présence de l expérience et des concepts de pauvreté présents le long du travail de l architecte, dans les textes et dans d autres domaines d activité. Sur les concepts de pauvreté et de l expérience a été établi une tension entre la lecture de Lina Bo Bardi et Walter Benjamin, qui a également beaucoup travaillé avec ce thème au long de son travail. Le rapprochement entre les penseurs sont nombreux, sont donnés non seulement parce qu ils partageaient un environnement de guerre qui les a amenés à observer la pauvreté de l expérience en raison des traumatismes et des silences causés par la destruction et les conflits, mais aussi de partager des vues similaires sur critique de la modernité, les rapports de production et l évolution des formes de logement. En bref, la vision de Benjamin sur ces concepts sont la base de la cartographie de ces derniers dans le travail de Lina Bo Bardi, et aussi une clée pour la lecture de ton travail aux multiples facettes de l architecte.

Magister Artium - MA / Bo-Kaap (BK) is a neighbourhood in Cape Town which has long been home to a predominantly Muslim community with deep ties to the area’s colonial and slave history. In recent years, BK has become a hotbed for developers investing in property in Cape Town. Due to its sought-after location (close to Cape Town’s CBD), a flurry of interest in property development has ushered in an important turn in BK’s history and has begun changing the landscape of the neighbourhood. Important for this study is how BK residents grapple with the influx of rapid gentrification whilst trying to maintain their ‘Malay’ heritage. Historically, BK was known as a ‘Malay Quarter’ and had a distinctive ‘Malay’ identity1 constructed under apartheid legislation. It is this identity and concomitant Malay heritage which is of particular interest in this study. Under the continued threat of wholesale gentrification and arguably a loss of the rich history of early Muslims of the Cape this study hopes to investigate how community members who self-identify as ‘Malay’ signal their legitimacy to the area when discussing the fast pace of gentrification in the area. Notably, variations of BK’s Malay heritage have been documented over time. These works nonetheless point to the complex relationship between the documented/historicized construction of Malay heritage and the lived experience of having a Malay identity. Casting aside the notion of any homogenous Malay identity, this study opts to explore the manner in which a Malay identity is claimed and constructed discursively as legitimate discourse strategies against gentrification. This study adopts an ethnographic approach to studying narratives of Malay heritage in BK obtained through purposive sampling. A Discourse Analysis of narratives of heritage in BK is undertaken to draw attention to the discursive strategies employed by self-identified ‘Malay’ community members in the area. / 2023-12-01

This study explores the emergence of changing values associated with heritage in postapartheid South Africa, expressed as a shift from tangible to intangible heritage values. Central to the study is an understanding of the evolutionary construction of changing values in a rooted heritage community within the urban historic environment of Bo-Kaap, the oldest residential suburb of Cape Town. Exploring changing values in Bo-Kaap, where tangible and intangible heritage intersect in the contemporary moment, showcases how heritage ably and fluidly adapts and transforms as an ever-shifting cultural process, and forges new, or altered, modes of identity construction. Bo-Kaap, as the case study, is a significant historic urban environment of Cape Town's central city with a vibrant community having cultural rootedness in place, in slave ancestral heritage, and existing living heritage deserving of protection. It is examined against a backdrop of the localised political, governance and civic agency milieu. The study follows the narrative of Bo-Kaap from its origins as a residential quarter of the early Cape colonial settlement, through the mid twentieth century when Bo-Kaap became largely fashioned and formed into an ethnically defined 'Malay' quarter, conforming to essentialised notions of race and ethnicity dominant in nationalist ideology, through the apartheid regime and the penetrating effects of Group Areas on the social and physical fabric of the area, until the present day where we are witness to a sea-change in outlook of the public on the very meaning and purpose of heritage. Heritage claims and heritage activism entered the realm of active public discourse in 2019 in response to free-market developmental pressures in Bo-Kaap, with inflections of social justice touching the edges of the heritage debate, and invited a broadening of the outermost limits of heritage discourse. Integral to this story is how heritage systems have been shaped by the past and colonial histories, new systems of governance post 1994, and a culture of intensifying identity politics. Following the arc of time illuminates the complex interrelatedness of heritage values with social, historical, and political trajectories, and aims to examine just how dynamically heritage values arise, merge and shift within the inter-relational temporal space; what activates them, who activates them, and to what end; and how they have entered into a space of heritage activism and public discourse. I suggest that this present change in discourse and the display of emerging sets of heritage values requires a highly critical reflexivity on the part of heritage structures and the profession, to look at what these changes mean for heritage praxis and governance and, more importantly, how to advance the relevance of heritage to a sector of South African society advocating for a decolonised heritage value framework.

Den äldre populationen blir allt fler samtidigt som utbildade vårdgivare inom äldreomsorg blir allt färre. Detta innebär en utmaning. Det relativt nya området Internet of Things (IoT) har slagit igenom stort den senaste tiden och kan erbjuda lösningar som verkar kunna avlasta hemtjänstarbetare, göra anhöriga tryggare och ge äldre en bättre livssituation. Denna studies syfte var att identifiera behoven hos de tre grupperna äldre som bor hemma, anhöriga till äldre som bor hemma och hemtjänstarbetare, samt att undersöka vilka lösningar som lämpar sig bäst och hur en designlösning skulle kunna se ut. Detta genomfördes med hjälp av enkäter och intervjuer med de tre grupperna vilket resulterade i sju personor för att illustrera behoven, en genomgång av en rad olika lösningar, samt ett designförslag i form av scenarion. Några av de slutsatser som kunde dras från studiens resultat var att IoT skulle kunna användas för att hjälpa många individer, att inställningen till specifika lösningar är väsensskild mellan individer och att man inom alla tre grupper önskar att tekniken inte ska ersätta mänsklig kontakt och samvaro. / The number of elderly people is steadily increasing, while the number of educated caregivers in elderly care decreases. This poses a challenge for the future. The relatively new area of the Internet of Things (IoT) has had a great break-through and can offer solutions that could ease the burden for home care workers, make relatives feel more secure and give the elderly a better life situation. The purpose of this study was to identify the needs of the three groups of elderly living at home, relatives of elderly living at home and home care workers, as well as to investigate which solutions are suitable and how a design solution could look like. This was done using surveys and interviews with the three groups, which resulted in seven personas to illustrate their needs, a review of a variety of solutions and a design proposal in the form of scenarios. Some of the conclusions that could be drawn from the results of the study were that IoT could be used to help many individuals, that the attitude to specific solutions is essentially different between individuals, and that there was an agreement in all three groups that technology should not replace human contact and fellowship.

Denna studie söker svar på frågan hur vi genom musik kan återberätta en historia. Dettagörs genom en analys av organisten Bo Hanssons studioalbum Sagan om ringen från1970. Genom att analysera albumet i förhållande till sin litterära förlaga, The Lord ofthe Rings av J. R. R. Tolkien, kommer studien fram till att vi med semiotiska ochanalogiska begrepp kan följa berättelsen även i musiken. Semiotiken handlar omtolkningen av tecken och uttryck. Studien använder emellertid mer av den musikaliskasemiotiken som omfattar begreppen tonhöjd, melodi, frasering och rytm. Dessa begreppgör det möjligt att analysera ett musikstycke utifrån de innebörder begreppen ger.Det andra teoretiska perspektivet som denna uppsats utgår ifrån är musikalisk analogi.Musikalisk analogi innebär att vi genom associationer kan finna liknelser i musik ochljud till visuella fenomen baserat på vår tidigare erfarenhet. Studien refererar även tillforskning som gjorts kring liknande områden som visar på hur musik kan förmedlakänslor och bilder.
