This thesis uses evidence gathered from conversations with audiences carried out before and after performances at Shakespeare’s Globe 2009-10, and contextualized through interviews with performers and creatives, archival data and critical scholarship to establish new understandings of current spectatorship at the Globe Theatre. This exploratory and inductive research into current audiences at the reconstructed Globe establishes new areas of inquiry for both current and early modern audience research. In cultural terms the position of Shakespeare's Globe is contested, it is read and used (sometimes simultaneously) by audiences as: theatre, tourist site, reconstruction and experiment. In academic terms the reconstruction is also contested, for its capacity to uncover new insights into early modern performance and reception or not. The significance of the physical conditions of performance and reception at the Globe, being a shared-lighting performance space, almost in-the-round, open-air and seasonal, are made apparent through reconstruction. These material and cultural conditions combine to produce a porous and contingent site of interaction between performer, building, weather, play and audience. These conditions alter and subvert current norms of audience passivity and quiescence today and illuminate new areas of consideration in early modern audience research. The four chapters of this thesis use four Shakespeare’s Globe productions as case studies: Chapter 1 draws on Troilus and Cressida (dir. Dunster, 2009) to consider issues of history and space for audiences; Chapter 2 considers Romeo and Juliet (dir. Dromgoole, 2009) and the place of audience work in performance; Chapter 3 takes Macbeth (dir. Bailey, 2010) to examine the production of illusion and audience affect, and Chapter 4 employs The Frontline (dir. Dunster, 2009) in a consideration of community-formation amongst audience. Themes of intimacy, hospitality, antagonism, the face-to-face encounter and laughter comprise sites of sustained critical concern with current spectatorship throughout the thesis. These areas receive some consideration in relationship to evidence of early modern spectatorship from plays and other primary sources.

Le développement de la baie de raisin est un processus dynamique présentant une courbe de croissance sigmoïde avec deux phases de croissance séparée par une phase de latence. Il se caractérise par une biosynthèse coordonnée de métabolites primaires et secondaires. À la fin de la phase de latence, un phénomène appelé véraison se produit, au cours duquel le fruit commence à prendre de la couleur et le processus de maturation est initié. Les anthocyanes sont responsables de la coloration des baies et la régulation de leur biosynthèse été largement étudiée. Cependant, peu d'études ont porté sur la caractérisation métabolique et génétique de variétés de baies de couleurs fortement contrastées, dans un même fond génétique. En combinant la technologie RNAseq et des analyses métabolomiques, nous avons effectué une caractérisation comparée de deux variétés de raisin de table : Chimenti Globe (CG, rose pâle) et Red Globe (RG, rouge foncé). L'originalité de ce modèle est que CG a été généré à partir d'un événement de mutation spontanée de RG, dans un vignoble de production, permettant ainsi l’étude de la régulation de la biosynthèse des anthocyanes dans un même fond génétique. L'analyse du contenu métabolique des baies a démontré l'importance des stades de développement, de la véraison à la maturation, dans les deux variétés de raisin. En particulier, des différences marquées dans les concentrations de certains métabolites de la voie des phénylpropanoïdes (shikimate, UDP-glucose, phénylalanine) et du tréhalose-6-phosphate ont été mises en évidence en post-véraison. De plus, les différences entre les variétés étaient dues à des changements dans les métabolites liés à la biosynthèse du saccharose et de l'anthocyanine. Les baies de CG ne contenaient que des anthocyanines dihydroxylées (péonidine et cyanidine), et aucune quantité détectable d’anthocyanes trihydroxylées (malvidine, delphinidine et pétunidine), qui sont abondamment présentes dans les pellicules des baies de RG. Ceci explique le phénotype de couleur rose pâle des baies de CG. Une analyse transcriptomique globale par RNAseq montre que 109 gènes sont exprimés de façon différentielle chez CG, en comparaison avec RG, y compris de nombreux gènes liés au métabolisme des flavonoïdes. Notamment, 11 gènes codant pour des 3'5'-hydroxylases flavonoïde, une enzyme-clé pour la biosynthèse des anthocyanes trihydroxylées, sont réprimés dans CG. A partir de cette analyse, un gène candidat pour la régulation de la voie de biosynthèse des anthocyanes a été sélectionné : le gène Cytb5, qui code pour un cytochrome b5, non caractérisé à ce jour chez la Vigne. La surexpression de Cytb5 par transgénèse dans des vignes hybrides V. berlandieri x V. rupestris cv. 110R suggère fortement un rôle clé pour ce gène dans la régulation de la biosynthèse des anthocyanes chez la vigne : les embryons obtenus présentaient une forte coloration rouge, indiquant la présence d’anthocyanes en quantités importantes dans les tissus végétatifs. De plus les embryons transgéniques ont un développement accéléré par rapport aux embryons sauvages. Ces travaux ont permis de mieux comprendre la régulation de l’accumulation des anthocyanes responsables de la coloration des baies de raisin, et plus largement, la régulation du métabolisme des flavonoïdes. / El desarrollo de la uva es un proceso dinámico caracterizado por una curva de crecimiento doble sigmoidea, separada por una fase lag, en donde ocurre una biosíntesis coordinada de metabolitos primarios y secundarios. Al final de la fase lag, ocurre un fenómeno llamado pinta correspondiente al comienzo de la coloración de la baya e iniciándose también el proceso de maduración. Las antocianinas son las responsables de la coloración de la piel de las bayas y su regulación ha sido ampliamente estudiada. Sin embargo, pocos estudios se han enfocado en la caracterización genética y metabólica, utilizando variedades contrastantes de color de piel. Utilizando análisis metabólico y la tecnología de RNA-seq, se realizó una nueva caracterización comparativa de dos uvas de mesa, Chimenti Globe (CG) y Red Globe (RG), que poseen un color de piel de la baya contrastante: CG tiene un color rojizo claro y RG posee un color morado. La originalidad de este modelo es que CG fue generada en un evento espontáneo de campo desde una rama de una planta RG. Por lo tanto, el background genético responsable del cambio de color es el mismo. El análisis del contenido metabólico de las pieles de las bayas reveló la importancia de las etapas de desarrollo, pinta y maduración, en ambas variedades en estudio. En particular, la diferencia en la concentración de metabolitos de la ruta fenilpropanoide, tales como shikimato y fenilalanina y otras moléculas como UDP-glucosa y trehalosa-6-fosfato, entre otros. Asimismo, las diferencias entre las variedades estuvieron dadas por cambios relacionados con la biosíntesis de sacarosa y antocianinas. CG solo contenía antocianinas dihidroxiladas, cianidina y peonidina, y no las del tipo trihidroxiladas, malvidina, delfinidina y petunidina, lo cual fue consistente con el fenotipo del color de piel observado. A partir del análisis transcriptómico, generamos un heatmap con 109 genes expresado diferencialmente en CG en comparación con RG, siendo muchos de estos asociados a la ruta biosíntesis de flavonoides. Además, observamos que 11 copias del gen flavonoide 3'5'-hidroxilasa, que codifica una enzima clave para la biosíntesis de antocianinas trihidroxiladas, no estaban inducidas en CG. A partir de este análisis, se seleccionó un gen candidato para contribuir en el estudio de la ruta de biosíntesis de antocianinas: citocromo b5 (Cytb5) que codifica una proteína clave donadora de electrones no caracterizada en vides. La sobreexpresión de Cytb5 en embriones V. berlandieri x V. rupestris cv. 110R sugirió fuertemente la participación en la ruta, ya que los embriones transgénicos exhibieron un color rojizo e incluso, un desarrollo acelerado en comparación con el control. Con estos resultados, hemos sido capaces de proporcionar información sobre la regulación de las antocianinas en vides responsables de la coloración de la piel de las bayas, abriendo nuevos terrenos en la búsqueda de reguladores moleculares de la vía flavonoide.

The purpose of this study is to determine as accurately as possible from an examination of contemporary records and from interpretations of scholars what the structure and conventions of the Globe Theater were in the hope that the projected reconstruction of the theater in Odessa may be as near the original as is possible and feasible.

For this qualitative research a single case study was conducted of a faith-based non-profit organization, Health Education and Literacy Providers (H.E.L.P.), which operates simultaneously in the United States and Nigeria. The purpose of this study was to explore the cross-cultural leadership phenomena occurring within H.E.L.P. and to provide evaluation services and research data to the American members of H.E.L.P. Participants included a sample of the American board members, Nigerian board members, and Nigerian employees. Three data collection methods were used to achieve triangulation including participant observations, interviews, and analysis of documents. The first research objective was to investigate the cross-cultural leadership context by analyzing the organizational culture of H.E.L.P. in Nigeria. Results revealed H.E.L.P. was designed by American board members to operate as a bureaucratic culture with an emphasis on a business-like structure, centralized authority, compartmentalization, and efficiency. The Nigerian board members and employees, however, expressed a desire for a supportive culture that focused on love and harmony uncovering a discrepancy between American and Nigerian preferences in organizational culture typology. The results from the Global Leadership and Organizational Behavior Effectiveness (GLOBE) study were referenced to provide a cultural explanation for variations in organizational culture preferences. According to GLOBE study findings, the United States ranked higher on performance orientation meaning Americans are more likely to value results above people, ambition, and competitiveness, and explains the American?s desire for a bureaucratic organizational culture. Nigeria ranked behind the United States as a lower performance oriented society meaning individuals place high value on relationships and harmony, explaining their desire for a supportive culture. The second and third research objectives were to determine how H.E.L.P.'s Nigerian members perceive effective leadership within their culture, and determine how the Nigerians? definition of effective leadership supports or refutes the literature on prevalent Westernized leadership theories. Results indicated the overarching leadership theme perceived to be effective by the Nigerian members of H.E.L.P. was love. Several aspects of a loving leader were evident in the data and divided into five categories each with one subcategory. These findings supported both Transformational and Authentic leadership theories.

Syftet med föreliggande studie var att undersöka vilka möjligheter och hinder ledare med utländsk bakgrund upplever i sitt ledarskap utifrån de nio kulturella dimensionerna från GLOBE- projektet. Fem intervjuer genomfördes med personer som hade invandrat till Sverige som vuxna och arbetade på mellanchefsnivå.Resultaten visade att chefer med invandrarbakgrund hade bidragit till sina verksamheter tack vare sina rötter och annorlunda livserfarenheter, berikade dem med nya vyer, synpunkter och förhållningssätt till vardagliga saker. Det som kunde anses vara det största hindret i arbetslivet var att de från början hade väldigt lite insyn i samhällets underförstådda regler, vilket kunde orsaka osäkerhet från början. Ett annat problem som uttrycktes var den svenska tillbakadragenheten med en avvaktande hållning och strikt regelföljning utan frihet att improvisera.

The biotite bearing Schultze Granite (Globe-Miami district) and the biotite-hornblende bearing Ruby Star Granodiorite (Pima district) compose two intrusive centers that produced multiple porphyry copper deposits during the Laramide orogeny. Both magmatic-hydrothermal systems were dismembered and tilted by Tertiary extension, as indicated by tilted Tertiary sedimentary rocks, paleomagnetic data, and geobarometry, thereby producing extraordinary exposures of these magmatic-hydrothermal systems: ~ 1 to ~10 km (Globe-Miami district) and <1 to>12 km (Pima district). Ages of emplacement range from 68 to 61 Ma for the Schultze Granite and 64 to 58 Ma for the Ruby Star Granodiorite. The plutons were formed by rapid accumulation of magma within short periods of time (~1 m.y.). The Schultze Granite is a high-silica granite and did not evolve chemically with time, except during formation of late porphyry and aplite dikes. Phases of the Ruby Star pluton range from granodiorite to granite, but appear to be distinct intrusive events separated in time by several million years. Each pluton is chemically homogenous with depth, probably due to convection. The low iron contents of biotites suggest that magmas related to porphyry copper deposits have higher oxidation states than typical granitic bodies. Hydrothermal alteration was associated with most phases of each pluton, with multiple alteration types overlapping to create complex centers. Veins persist to >10 km beneath porphyry copper deposits. Deep styles of alteration differ in the two plutons. The Schultze Granite contains biotite veins and greisen veins (coarse-grained muscovite) (~10 km). The Ruby Star Granodiorite contains sodic-calcic alteration (4-8 km) and greisen veins (4-12 km). The sodic-calcic alteration is asymmetrically distributed on the eastern side of the Sierrita deposit and is interpreted to have been created by influx of external sedimentary brines from Paleozoic sedimentary rocks that only are present on the eastern side of the pluton. Greisen alteration occurs late in the hydrothermal history and may be the last fluids that were exsolved from the magma as the magma chamber completely crystallized. These deep alteration styles can be used to predict where porphyry copper deposition may have occurred, which can lead to discoveries in extended terranes.
