The problem of driving and drinking has been examined in terms of prevention, enforcement, punishment, and education. From the sale of alcoholic beverages, it remains apparent that people will continue to drink and problems associated with that behavior will persist. The purpose of this study was to investigate how the judges in Montgomery County, Virginia, treated defendants brought to court for driving while under the influence of alcohol or driving on a license suspended due to alcohol abuse from July, 1982 through September, 1983. An analysis of the role played by the Montgomery County, Virginia, judges in the driving and drinking problem has shown that there were significant differences in the (number of continuations allowed, the type of verdict granted, and the form of punishment given. Defendants arrested for driving while under the influence of alcohol were much more likely to receive a guilty verdict (81%) than were people arrested for driving on a license suspended due to alcohol abuse (34%). These same judges were consistent in their treatment of male and female defendants in all areas except punishment where it was found that no females went to jail. Personal interviews with the judges substantiated the statistical results, but of even more significance was the accent placed on educating both the public, beginning in elementary school, and the drunk driver. Many recommendations for further research and further action were presented. / Ed. D. / incomplete_metadata

Por se tratar de um gênero flexível, o epigrama pode ser analisado em conjunto ou sozinho, propiciando diferentes recortes e abordagens metodológicas. Estudos acerca do epigrama fúnebre geralmente analisam os poemas de acordo com temas afins focando nos mortos: guerreiros mortos, mulheres mortas no parto, mortos no mar dentre outros. No entanto, uma abordagem dos epigramas fúnebres com visão descentralizada do morto permite investigação mais ampla de outros temas. Desse modo, a presente tese partiu dos estudos de Giuseppe Giangrande, Francis Cairns e Alexander Sens sobre epigramas fúnebres que lançam mão de elementos simposiais no intuito de analisar a função de tais elemento e verificar de que maneira os simposiais presentes nos epigramas fúnebres se perpetuam ou se modificam. Para tanto, foram selecionados epigramas do livro VII da Antologia Grega que possuem léxico simposial e fúnebre e, a partir dos identificados, foram configurados três grupos: 1) os dedicados ao poeta Anacreonte, 2) os dedicados às mulheres bêbadas e 3) os dedicados aos homens bêbados. Nos epigramas dedicados a Anacreonte, pode-se constatar que os elementos simposiais resgatam sua poesia e a filiam aos epigramatistas por meio da transformação do espaço funerário e das relações entre o transeunte-leitor e o poeta. Nos poemas dedicados às mulheres bêbadas, o consumo do vinho e o enterramento próximo aos locais de produção dele ressaltam a mobilidade das anciãs, o distanciamento de seus familiares e o caráter cômico das mortas por conta da caracterização da bebedeira. Por fim, nos epigramas fúnebres dedicados aos homens bêbados, evidenciam-se a moderação e a imoderação diante do consumo de vinho. Em alguns, a moderação está alinhada ao conceito poético de composição. Em outros, o excesso de vinho causa acidentes retratados com tom cômico e que advertem o transeunte-leitor a não cometer os mesmos erros. Outro grupo de epigramas se vale das referências simposiais para criar enigmas ao transeunte-leitor. O último, por sua vez, é composto por epitáfios para filósofos mortos por bebedeira. Evidencia-se aqui a tensão entre a moderação e os ensinamentos filosóficos, permeados pelos tons anedótico e cômico. Sugere-se, portanto, que a presença de elementos simposiais adquire função distinta de acordo com o grupo de mortos. Isto posto, observa-se que os epigramas do corpus de diferentes séculos lançam mão de simposiais que passam a ganhar nuances distintas. Isso permite afirmar que os epigramas fúnebres com elementos simposiais perpetuam a tensão criativa entre a tradição e a inovação, conceitos debatidos por Marco Fantuzzi e Richard Hunter, para além do período helenístico. / Because it is a flexible genre, the epigram can be analyzed in groups or alone. It provides researchers with different possibilities of epigram grouping and methodological approaches. Studies on funerary epigram frequently analyze the poems according to related themes focusing on the dead: dead warriors, women dead in childbirth, dead in the sea among others. However, an approach to funerary epigrams which does not focus on the dead allows a broader investigation of other themes. Thus, the present thesis was based on the studies of Giuseppe Giangrande, Francis Cairns and Alexander Sens on funerary epigrams that use sympotic elements in order to analyze the function of such elements and to verify how the sympotic found in funerary epigrams continue being used of if they suffer modifications. In order to do so, we selected epigrams from Book VII of The Greek Anthology that display sympotic and funerary lexicon and, departing from the , three groups of epigrams were identified: 1) those dedicated to the poet Anacreon, 2) those dedicated to drunk women and 3) those dedicated to drunk men. In epigrams dedicated to Anacreon, sympotic elements recover his poetry and connect it to the epigrammatists by means of the transformation of the funeral space and the relationship between the passerby and the poet. In poems dedicated to drunken women, the consumption of wine and their burial near places of wine production emphasize the mobility of old women, their distancing from their relatives and the comic character of the dead women due to the characterization of their drunkenness. Finally, in the funerary epigrams dedicated to drunken men, moderation and immoderation are evident. In some, moderation is aligned with poetic composition. In others, the excess of wine causes accidents portrayed with comic tone. These epigrams warn the passerby not to make the same mistakes as the dead they commemorate. Another group of epigrams uses sympotic references to create charades to the passerby. The last group, in turn, is composed by epitaphs for philosophers killed by drunkenness. Here we see the tension between moderation and philosophical teachings permeated by the anecdotal and comic tone. It is suggested, therefore, that the presence of sympotic elements acquires a different function according to the group of dead. Thus, it is observed that, although the epigrams were composed in different centuries, the portrayed gain different nuances, which allows us to conclude that funerary epigrams with sympotic elements also reflect the creative tension between tradition and innovation, as debated by Marco Fantuzzi and Richard Hunter.

This paper discusses Karlstad’s sobriety committee view on the drinking as a societal problem during the period 1941–1950. The purpose of the study is to investigate how the sobriety committee in Karlstad saw drinking as a problem and what measures were put in place to deal with it between the years 1941–1950.The study used a qualitative research method, and the empirical material has consisted of Karlstad’s sobriety committee’s annual reports from the years 1941–1950. The material was read several times and sorted and reduced with the help of focused coding where clear problem areas, reasons behind the drinking and measures and their possible results were what was sought. The results were analyzed with the help of previous research and the theory of the actor and structure model.The results show in what way the drinking was considered problematic where the focus ended up on youth drunkenness and widespread illegal trade with alchohol. These two problems were also the clearest reasons for the city’s negative state of sobriety. Descriptions of the sobriety committee’s work and measures show a resignation. Using the actor and structure model, one sees how structures to curb drinking in the city emerged and were connected. One can find a problem with the social structures that the inhabitants grew up with contributed to increased drinking.

Engager une anthropologie de l’ivresse rituelle et collective dans un contexte festif – notamment funéraire - andin s’avère un champ de recherche fécond et fascinant tant la chicha, cette boisson épaisse de maïs fermenté, contient tout un monde de significations et l’ivresse, dont elle découle, favorise diverses formes de mise en relation avec le monde animé environnant et avec les morts. En ce sens, elle est performative puisqu’elle permet à ces entités d’exister et de devenir de sérieux interlocuteurs pour les humains. À partir d’une ethnographie dans la région andine de Cochabamba (Bolivie), dans la communauté paysanne quechua de Qhoari et dans le village également quechua d’Arani, l’ébriété et le boire collectif sont analysés comme une action qui consolide le lien social, renforce l’identité de groupe et rapproche du sacré. L’ivresse est alors recherchée, désirée et valorisée. En somme, elle est un moyen de communication qui permet d’établir des relations réciproques aussi bien entre les humains eux-mêmes qu’entre ces derniers et la Pachamama, tous les êtres qui peuplent la nature animée. C’est à travers la boisson alcoolisée que les hommes font entendre leurs requêtes auprès de ces entités surnaturelles car ce n’est qu’en état d’ébriété avancée que l’on peut dialoguer avec elles, qu’elles nous apparaissent en alter ego. En effet, l’humide est symbole de vie, le sec renvoie à la mort. Les offrandes de libations et les sacrifices sanglants favorisent la réhydratation et l’alimentation des entités diaboliques et des morts. Prolongeant cette réflexion, c’est à travers des mécanismes somme toute très proches de ceux à l’œuvre lors des offrandes que le corps du buveur, saccagé par l’alcool, presque moribond, prend tout son sens sacrificiel. / An Andean anthropological focus on ritual and collective intoxication within a festive setting – in particular in funeral contexts - leads to a prolific and fascinating field of research since chicha, the thick fermented corn beverage, contains a world of meaning. The drunkenness it engenders promotes diverse ways of creating links with not only the surrounding animated world but also with the dead. In that sense, it is performative because it makes exist these entities who become serious interlocutors for the humans. This ethnography conducted in the Andean region of Cochabamba (Bolivia), in the Quechua peasant communities of Qhoari and in the nearby village of Arani, analyzes inebriation as a collective action that consolidates social ties, strengthens group identity and even brings the sacred closer. Intoxication is therefore sought, desired and valued. In short, it is a means of communication that allows the establishment of reciprocal relations among humans and between them and the Pachamama (all beings that inhabit animated nature). It is through liquor that human requests can be heard by supernatural entities who can dialogue with them only when they are inebriated, appearing through an alter ego. In fact, wetness is the symbol of life; dryness refers to death. Offerings of libations and blood sacrifices promote the rehydration and nurturing of evil entities and the dead. It is through mechanisms very similar to those at work in such offerings that the body of the drinker, wrecked by alcohol, almost agonizing, acquires its sacrificial meaning.
