Syftet med studien var att finna lösningar i en begränsad repertoar för oboe, genom att belysa musik komponerad för violin av den ouppmärksammade kvinnliga tonsättaren Marion Bauer. Syftet var i förlängningen att inspirera andra musiker att utföra liknande studier. Detta genomfördes metodiskt genom konstnärliga val baserade på musikanalys och transkription till oboe av Bauers verk Up the Ocklawaha, Op. 6 som komponerades för den kvinnliga violinisten Maud Powell. Vidare egna inspelningar, musikhistoriska studier och intag av andra verk, såsom Clara Schumann-Wiecks tre romanser för violin och piano, Op. 22. I transkriptionen identifierades utmaningar i form av dubbelgrepp och flageoletter för violin. Studiens resultat påvisar lösningar genom konstnärliga val som prioriteringar av bärande meloditoner och oktaveringar. Resultatet indikerar att transkriptionen var fullt genomförbar genom noga övervägda konstnärliga val trots tekniska utmaningar. Studiens övergripande resultat belyser vikten av att framhäva kvinnliga kompositörer som annars i tillräcklig grad inte uppmärksammas.

The northern province of Sweden has in both literature and film been depictured as something foreign and mythical, unlike the rest of the country. It has been my purpose to show in this essay that the systematic categorization of Norrland and its literature reveals multiple criteria known to define the colonial era. By reading the novel Stallo by author Stefan Spjut with postcolonial structures in mind I aim to show how the author uses Swedish mythology and through the presence of The Other criticizes colonial structures in place to this day. By examining the gothic atmosphere I intend to indicate how the trolls in the novel figures as both a horror element as well as a representation of nature itself. It is my belief that the author by further reinforcing the mythological in relation to Norrland addresses the problem at hand. That Norrland is still to this day a colony within its own country. / I Norrland kan ingen höra dig skrika. Det är så det norrländska landskapet har framställts inom både litteratur och film i Sverige. Norrland har genom åren gestaltas som något avlägset och mystiskt, nästintill främmande. Helt olikt resterande delar av landet. Det är min avsikt att visa hur den systematiska kategoriseringen av Norrland och dess litteratur avslöjar flera av de kriterier som per definition beskriver kolonism. Genom en postkolonial läsning av spänningsromanen Stallo (2012), av författaren Stefan Spjut, söker jag visa hur författaren genom svensk folklore och genom en övernaturlig närvaro kan kritisera koloniala strukturer.

Les parois moulées sont des ouvrages de fondations en béton armé. Le béton de paroi moulée n'est jamais vibré et présente une fluidité élevée. Les observations effectuées après le terrassement et le rabotage des parois montrent que celles-ci présentent des défauts qui sont reliés au ressuage du béton lors de sa mise en place. Les cheminées de remontées d’eau représentent 90% des désordres observés sur les chantiers. Les constituants du béton sont souvent mis en cause. Une étude a été menée afin de comprendre l'influence des divers paramètres affectant le ressuage. Quatre formulations de béton issues de chantier ont été caractérisées en laboratoire. Une formule a montré sur chantier sa robustesse vis à vis du ressuage, tandis que les trois autres formulations ont abouti à des pathologies plus ou moins sévères. La formulation qui présentait le plus de pathologies a été modifiée de manière à observer l’effet des constituants de la formulation vis à vis du ressuage forcé et statique. Différentes pressions ont été étudiées afin de simuler différentes hauteurs de paroi moulée. Cette étude a permis de valider la pression 5 bars prédite par les recommandations Bauer. La formulation de base de ce béton de fondation a été modifiée de manière à obtenir une courbe granulaire continue, un rapport G/S proche de 1 et une augmentation du dosage en fines supérieur à 430 kg/m3. Les résultats des essais ont permis de limiter le seuil admissible du filtre presse Bauer à 15 ml au lieu de 24,4 ml. Les formulations du béton de fondation de plusieurs chantiers de parois moulées ont été modifiées, ce qui a permis de valider les prescriptions précédentes. Des recommandations ont pu être proposées. / The diaphragm walls are foundations made with reinforced concrete. The concrete of diaphragm wall is never vibrated and has a high fluidity. The observations recorded following excavation and planing of diaphragm walls demonstrate that defects are observed which are correlated with concrete bleeding during placement. Water upwelling pathology represents 90% of all disorders observed at project sites. Mix components are often implicated. A study was conducted to understand the influence of various parameters affecting the bleeding. Four concrete mix designs derived from the field were characterized in the laboratory. On a jobsite, one design has, revealed its robustness with respect to bleeding, whereas the other three have led to pathologies of varying severity. The tested concrete displaying the most of pathologies was modified so as to observe the effect of different mix components on the forced and static bleeding. A range of pressures was introduced as a means of simulating various diaphragm wall heights.This study validated the pressure 5 bar predicted by the Bauer recommendations. The basic formulation of this concrete of foundation has been modified in order to have a continuous granular curve, G / S close to 1 and an increasing in the dosage of fines greater thinly than 430 kg / m3. The results of tests served to limit the admissible threshold of filter press Bauer at 15 ml instead of 24,4 ml. The formulations of the concrete foundation of several diaphragm walls have been modified accordingly, which validated the previous prescriptions. Recommendations have been proposed.

Im Aufsatz wird über die erstaunlichen, bisher unbekannten Umgestaltungspläne berichtet, die der Industrielle Alwin Bauer mit Schloss Weesenstein vorhatte. Dieser hatte 1917 die Herrschaft Weesenstein von Prinz Johann Georg von Sachsen erworben. Die gewagten Entwürfe schuf der Dresdner Architekt Max Herfurth, der bereits für den Bauherrn das Mohrenhaus in Radebeul umgebaut hatte. Zur Ausführung kamen die Pläne jedoch nicht. Bauer verkaufte das Schloss 1933 an den Landesverein Sächsischer Heimatschutz.

Il presente studio propone un’indagine critica del pensiero di Johann Caspar Schmidt, meglio noto come Max Stirner, volta sia a investigare la sua posizione all’interno del contesto filosofico della prima metà del XIX secolo, e più in generale della storia della filosofia, sia a valutare la cogenza e l’attualità della sua proposta teoretica. L’ipotesi guida della ricerca mira all’approfondimento dell’idea, già prospettata da alcuni studiosi, di una valenza ironica della riflessione stirneriana in direzione di una complessa strategia parodica, che assume come fulcro l’umorismo e si declina in un duplice movimento convergente nel plesso concettuale “unico-proprietà”. Mediante un puntuale confronto testuale con i suoi avversari diretti – Feuerbach, Bruno Bauer e Hegel – si mostrerà come Stirner operi un raddoppiamento di tali corpi di pensiero e una parodia dei propri stessi assunti, al fine di delegittimare l’ambito della significazione e attingere il piano dell’evenemenzialità dell’esistenza e della storia. La parodia stirneriana assume pertanto valenza euristica e pragmatica in quanto prospetta una diversa idea di soggettività intesa come struttura di differenza sempre operante e apre a inedite configurazioni etiche e politiche, caratterizzate da un ripensamento delle nozioni di uso e consumo. / This research proposes a critical inquiry of the thought of Johann Caspar Schmidt, best known as Max Stirner, both for investigate his peculiar position in the philosophical context of the early half of XIX century, and in the history of philosophy in general, and for understand the theoretical and topical interest of his proposal. The aim of the analysis is the widening of an ironic value of his work, suggested for some critics, in order to assert that Stirner makes a complex and humoristic parody of his contemporary context of thought – in particular of the works of Feuerbach, Bruno Bauer and Hegel – and of his own assumptions for displace the philosophical discours from the level of the meaning to the level of the event. In this way, his parody attains a heuristic and pragmatic function, suggesting a different idea of subjectivity as structure of difference and new ethical and political forms, based on the reconsideration of the notions of use and consumption.

The purpose of this study is to approach the understanding of viewing of reality television with the intention to explore emotional responses in the reception since emotions are crucial part in the emotionalized television genre of reality television. The German adaption of the format The Farmer Wants a Wife was chosen for this case study to examine tendencies of portraying contestants in unpleasant situations. Humiliation, embarrassment or discrediting the contestants creates a balancing act between fun and ridicule. The protagonists are located between the status of (temporary) cult figures and/or figures of fun. The thesis’ main aim is to find out which emotions are perceived and addressed in the watching experience of the format being named in the context of ‘fremdschämen’. The winged German word for vicarious or empathic embarrassment was thereby addressed beyond its descriptive metaphor for current programs. Emotional responses in connection with shame and embarrassment were previously predominantly neglected in research on reality television. Its relevance and occurrence in media is insofar important, as the concept of ‘fremdschämen’ found the way into German mainstream language use. The thesis delivers qualitative approaches to capture the mediation of emotions in reality TV: In a narrative analysis, the question on how emotions actually are staged was approached. Subsequently, four focus group discussions with overall 18 German-speaking discussants were conducted to understand individual and social watching preferences, emotional involvement, attachment styles and positioning in the reception. The study’s findings suggest that the contestants’ ordinariness is challenged by mainly focusing on extraordinarity in the docusoap. Thereby, new opportunities of audience positioning, identification and anti-identification and constructions of appealing figures are encouraged. Gentle mockery in the style of presentation contains furthermore self-criticism of the genre and expresses a critical stance of viewing. Emotions are performed on different levels to increase entertaining values in the program. Especially embarrassment can be connected to its function of ridicule and the maintenance of social order.

The denial of defeat, the harsh Versailles Treaty and unsuccessful attempts by paramilitary units to recover losses in the Baltic produced in post-war Germany an anti-Bolshevik, anti-Entente, radical right-wing cabal of officers with General Ludendorff and Colonel Bauer at its core. Mistakenly citing a lack of breadth as one of the reason for the failure of their amateurishly executed Hohenzollern restoration and Kapp Putsch schemes, Bauer and co-conspirator Ignatius Trebitsch-Lincoln devised the highly ambitious White International plot. It sought to form a transnational league of Bavaria, Austria and Hungary to force the annulment of the Paris Treaties by the coordinated use of paramilitary units from the war vanquished nations. It set as its goals the destruction of Bolshevism in all its guises throughout Europe, the restoration of the monarchy in Russia, the systematic elimination of all Entente-sponsored Successor States and the declaration of war on the Entente. Archival documents, memoirs and other sources expose the underlying flaw in the plot: individual national priorities would always override transnational cooperation. Bavaria and Hungary were already seeking treaty revision through a rapprochement with the Entente; White Russian forces had turned from German support in favour of the French; and finally - as pointed out by their own leaders - the member states' paramilitary units were either untested or wholly ineffective, and thus would be no match for the national armies of the Successor States and the Entente.

The purpose of this study was to determine how to attract participants from all over Sweden to partake in the John Bauer Trail Run and increase the awareness of it employing a well planned cross-media strategy. To achieve this purpose a thorough study of litterature and research within the areas cross-media and marketing have been done. The method that was chosen for the study was a small-N-study which is a more quantitative type of case study. Eleven different running events have been examined and interviewed to collect the empirical data. The answers that the interviews produced have been analyzed in combination with the studied litterature and this has resulted in a cross-media strategy for John Bauer Trail Run. The key elements of this strategy is that they should have different purposes for their different marketing channels, some more brand oriented and some more call-to-action. These specific purposes should be taken in consideration each time an advert or a message is to be published in the channel and the content should be adapted accordingly. The results of the study are mainly applicable to John Bauer Trail Run but parts of it can be applied to other trail running-events with similar goals as well. This study was limited by the appointed time and resources regarding how many units that has been studied and that only one method was applied.
