The Architectural History of Beverley Minster, 721-c. 1370

Woodworth, Matthew Hays January 2011 (has links)
<p>This dissertation is the first architectural history devoted to Beverley Minster, a large and ambitious Gothic church located in the East Riding of Yorkshire. Beverley is one of the most important medieval buildings in England, but it has been almost entirely ignored in the literature. The church is composed of three parts: choir and transepts (c. 1225-1260), nave (c. 1308-c. 1370), and west façade (c. 1380-1420). </p><p>The thesis begins with a description of the destroyed buildings that occupied the site during the Saxon and Romanesque periods. The remainder of the dissertation focuses on the work completed at the Minster during the fourteenth century, in the so-called Decorated style. First, the nave is analyzed and its construction is assigned to six campaigns between the years c. 1308-c. 1370. Much discussion is devoted to the "historicism" of the nave's conservative design, which is a subtly modernized version of the east end that preceded it. Contemporary documents also permit discussion of the financial contributions of the laity, canons, and municipal leaders who paid for the nave to be built. </p><p>Finally, a detailed analysis is offered for the furnishings made at Beverley between 1292 and c. 1340: the reredos (high altar screen), sedilia (seating for priests), and the destroyed shrine which once contained the relics of St. John of Beverley. Like the nave, they are all neglected masterpieces of the Decorated style.</p> / Dissertation

"Verket förtydligas, men splittras samtidigt. Verket får en 'själ', men förlorar delvis sin 'kropp'." : En studie av två delar i konstnären Sara Jordenös Personaprojektet

Taavoniku, Maria January 2014 (has links)
Denna uppsats är en studie av två delar i konstnären Sara Jordenös dokumentärinstallation Personaprojektet. De båda delarna bär titeln ADR respektive The Set House (Hedvig). I undersökningen genomförs en kritisk diskursanalys vars fokus ligger vid frågor rörande konstruktioner av verkligheter och hur språket påverkar och påverkas av normer för klass, genus och sexualitet. Frågeställningarna innefattar funderingar rörande hur kategorisering av människor sker, hur individer formar sig själva som subjekt och hur dessa aspekter belyses i det utvalda materialet. Analysen undersöker även upplevelsen av verket, och hur val av medium bidrar till denna.

Uranium metallogeny in the North Flinders Ranges region of South Australia.

Wulser, Pierre-Alain January 2009 (has links)
The geological province of the Mount Painter in the North Flinders Ranges (South Australia) is well-known for its uranium mineralisation, and uraniferous granites. The presence in the nearby Cenozoic sediments of the Lake Frome basin of uranium mineralisations (Beverley deposit) and the recent discovery of the Four Mile deposit has triggered the interest of explorers. Based on extensive laser-ablation inductively-coupled-plasma-mass-spectrometry (LA-ICPMS) U-Pb geochronological data and mineralogy of U-Th-bearing minerals, rock geochemistry and petrography, we present a global study on the mobility of U, Th and REE in the Mount Painter Domain, including a detailed reconstitution of the Beverley deposit genesis. Seven significant stages of U-Th-REE mobility are recognised: 1. The possible presence U-enriched ~1600 Ma lower crust under the MPD 2. Intrusion of two A-type Mesoproterozoic granites suites (~1575, and ~1560 Ma respectively) with high HFSE contents and crustal origin; the porphyritic biotite K-rich highly-enriched Yerila granite belongs to the youngest suite and hosts magmatic allanite-(Ce), potassic-hastingsite, ilmenite, fergusonite-(Y), chevkinite, molybdenite, zircon, uranothorite, uraninite and titanite and fluorite 3. Late-magmatic or post-magmatic metasomatism in the same granites; evidenced by F-rich annite, zircon, Y-bearing Al-F-titanite (< 6 kbar, >400°C), Y-rich fluorapatite, synchysite-(Ce) and fluorite. Early ilmenite, molybdenite, allanite-(Ce) and oligoclase reacted with an alkaline oxidising F-rich melt or fluid. The latemagmatic to post-magmatic metasomatism is also recorded at the intrusion contact in regional rocks, forming allanite-, magnetite-, uranothorite-, zircon- (1501 ± 6 Ma), and uraninite-bearing calcsilicate skarns. The spreading of zircon ages in the Yerila granite (~1565 to ~1521) relates to the mixing of magmatic and metasomatic crystals. 4. the MPD was subject to the Delamerian orogeny and related metamorphism (amphibolite facies); most Mesoproterozoic granitic assemblages present signs of recrystallisation or stress; recrystallisation of monazite-(Ce) and xenotime-(Y) during Paleozoic (Cambrian) (490-495 Ma). U-Th-rich minerals also bear Delamerian ages (polycrase-(Y), euxenite-(Y), davidite-(La) and uraninite). 5. Anatexis of local basement during Ordovician and generation of peraluminous granite (British Empire granite) with low Th/U. The granite is enriched in U and Y. We provide the first robust ages on it: 456 ± 9 and 459 ± 9 Ma on zircon, 453.3 ± 4.6 on xenotime-(Y). 6. Very active hydrothermal/pegmatitic uranium remobilisation along active faults; brannerite-quartz veins formation (367 ± 13 Ma), further signs of remobilisation or hydrothermal event during Permian (284 ± 25 Ma in thorite) and around the Mt Gee (~290 Ma radiogenic gain in davidite) which agrees with the previous data (paleomagnetic ages of 250-300 Ma). 7. Cenozoic supergene uranium remobilisation in MPD and migration of U-rich oxidised groundwaters into the Lake Frome. The uranium is precipitated in the sandy formation of the lake and in the top layer of the underlying organic-matter-rich clays and silts. The micro-environment of reduction efficiently trap U but also REE, fingerprinting the REE-rich MPD granite source. Coffinite and carnotite give concordant Pliocene ages (6.7 to 3.4 Ma). Provenance studies on the sands hosting the Beverley mineralisations suggest a reworking of Early Cretaceous glacial or glacio-lacustrine sediments originally sourced in Eastern Australia (Lachlan Fold Belt). The youngest recorded zircon (130 Ma) doesn’t constrain the sediment age but refines the provenance region (New England Orogen). / http://proxy.library.adelaide.edu.au/login?url= http://library.adelaide.edu.au/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?BBID=1370301 / Thesis (Ph.D.) -- University of Adelaide, School of Earth and Environmental Sciences, 2009

Philosophies, cultures politiques et représentations de l'Autochtone aux États-Unis et au Canada, 18e et 19e siècles

Bergeron, David January 2015 (has links)
Cette thèse vérifie l’effet d’une philosophie sur la représentation historique d’une réalité sociale, et ce des lendemains de la Révolution américaine jusqu’à l’aube du XXe siècle. Cette représentation concerne l’Autochtone, son rapport au contexte et à l’État. Comment la culture politique des cadres étatsunien et canadien respectivement mène l’élite s’y inscrivant – soit celle concernée par la question -, de 1783 à 1900, à se représenter la réalité amérindienne et son rapport au contexte social et à l’État? Aux États-Unis, projet libéral et individualiste, l’élite réfléchit l’Autochtone en fonction de fins libérales, raison d’être des institutions. L’individualisme balise la pensée; l’Autochtone n’est respecté et reconnu collectivement qu’en tant qu’il n’affecte point la téléologie du cadre. L’Amérique du Nord britannique voit les nécessités impériales, plus tard nationales, fonder la réflexion. Elles définissent la place lui revenant dans ce projet, celle déterminée par l’autorité gouvernant sa réalisation, laquelle doit alors préserver son contrôle sur l’Amérindien. En fonction d’un ordre est-il pensé. Cette étude le confirme. Méthodologiquement centrée sur l’analyse de la réflexion d’élites politiques et juridiques, la différence entre une représentation fondée sur des impératifs libéraux et une centrée sur des notions d’ordre et d’étatisme y est appréhendée. Le cadre américain oppose un individualisme à une reconnaissance légale de la tribu. Le premier devra primer, signifiant l’américanisation de l’Autochtone, car la loi et le politique doivent, pour le colon, servir la finalité territoriale. Le cadre britannique s’élabore sur une réflexion fondée sur des impératifs d’ordre. La réalité et la place des collectivités sont réfléchies, définies et déterminées par une autorité légitimée sur une tradition. Elle gère le contexte, ses éléments, comme les tribus, pour s’assurer d’un développement ordonné. L’Autochtone n’est pas impérativement individualisé, mais plutôt collectivement protégé, gouverné et ségrégé. Son contrôle passe avant son individualisation, l’ordre devant baliser le développement. Ainsi s’élaborent deux pensées au sujet de l’Amérindien, formatées à l’intérieur des pôles individu/collectivité.
