Much has been written on the Anglo-Boer War 1899-1902. Different themes, ranging from battles to more personal experiences, have been documented. Furthermore there are many statistics regarding the war. The aim of this study is to obtain, through the existing sources, the total number of civilian deaths during the Anglo- Boer war. To compile a genealogical database regarding the civilian deaths is not an easy task. Almost all sources have conflicting figures regarding the number of civilians who actually died. Deaths were not restricted to the concentration camps. There were also those of people on their way to the camps, or those fleeing from captivity. The aim of this study is to give an account of the process used to compile the genealogical database. By putting certain criteria in place the database should be stripped of any duplication. The reasons for [him concentration camps being created, and the number of camps that came into existence, including the total of deaths with unique abstracts from the database, are described in detail. There is confusion about the terms "refugee" and concentration camps. This is clarified. A brief explanation is given of how, where and when the camps came into being. The number of camps, and their period of existence, as well as the total numbers of civilian deaths in the camps, were compiled in an effort to secure greater accuracy. With the relevant support of information from the electronic database, it was possible to compile a comprehensive picture of the numbers of deaths that occurred. There are furthermore, some observations on the spelling of surnames. It is important because the use of Afrikaans, Dutch and English has led to different forms of spelling. The core objective of this study was to find the exact number of civilian deaths during the Anglo-Boer War. The penultimate chapter is a detailed explanation of related deaths. A list containing the main causes of deaths, mainly disease, is included. The number of deaths is tabulated in terms of their causes. It is possible to see the profound impact of what really happened. Information of unique deaths, deaths in certain families, as well as statistics regarding the overall age and gender of victims is included. Another aim of the study was to compile a complete list of all the civilians who died during the Anglo Boer War, more complete and with more detail than that of P.L.A. Goldman. This was indeed an overwhelming exercise. P.L.A. Goldman had a total of 27 927 names and the database total account for 33 978 individual deaths. Included are the 759 names of black names as compiled by S.V. Kessler. Hopefully the database will succeed in bringing us closer to the civilian deaths during 1899-1902. It should be useful to genealogical researchers. / Thesis (M.A. (History))--North-West University, Vaal Triangle Campus, 2007.

Les albigeois sont des fidèles d’une hérésie médiévale qui s’est amplement développée dans le sud de la France et a disparu vers le XIVe siècle à cause de la croisade albigeoise et de la poursuite de l’Inquisition. Mais curieusement, ils se sont placés de nouveau au centre du débat catholiques-protestants deux siècles plus tard, car les savants de l’époque croyaient qu’ils étaient les ancêtres des protestants français. Du XVIe au XVIIe siècle, même jusqu’au XVIIIe siècle, la divergence entre les catholiques et les protestants donne lieu à des affrontements dans presque tous les domaines, tandis que, paradoxalement, ils se rencontrent dans l’idée de la filiation albigeois-protestants. Ce phénomène est en rapport étroit avec les stratégies apologétique des deux camps antagonistes d’alors et aussi avec les circonstances religieuses, politiques, voire sociales de la France depuis la Réforme. Les défenseurs de l’Église traditionnelle puisent leur inspiration dans l’histoire de la croisade albigeoise et veulent, en la citant comme exemple, écraser leurs ennemis. Les protestants font également attention à cette histoire, mais ce qu’ils y découvrent, ce sont la résonance produite par les persécutions semblables à celles de l’ancienne époque et une opportunité potentielle dont ils pourraient profiter pour augmenter leur chance de succès dans la controverse, surtout en ce qui concerne la question de la généalogie protestante. Ainsi, les albigeois sont peu à peu intégrés dans l’histoire du protestantisme français. Pourtant, cette généalogie, bien qu’elle se diffuse largement, ne peut pas s’éterniser dans l’Histoire, puisqu’au demeurant, elle est une production imaginaire et, à partir du milieu du XIXe siècle, elle disparaît progressivement. / The albigensian movement was a Christian heresy which arose in southern France in the High Middle Ages and disappeared in the fourteenth century. However, during the sixteenth century, this heresy was generally considered as the forerunner of French Protestantism. At that time, the Catholics and the Protestants were antagonistic in regards to almost every topic, but strangely they held identical views towards the “genealogy” between the albigensians and the Protestants. This phenomenon is closely related to the political and religious situation and the polemical strategies of the two sides in France since the Reformation. The Catholics are inspired by the albigensian crusade to eliminate the heretics. As for the Protestants, on one hand, the albigensians’ persecution facilitates reflection on their own experience; on the other hand, it provides an opportunity for them to turn adversity and defeat into victory in the conflict with the Catholics. Since then, the albigensian history is integrated into the history of the French protestant church. But, this genealogy, although it is widely spread, could not continue to be taken in History, because it is after all an imagination.

The basic premise for this research was that infertility is not only an individual issue but also a conjugal issue and needs to be addressed as such. Although in general only one of the partners receives a diagnosis of infertility, infertility is best understood as a couple level stresser , since within the conjugal relationship both partners become infertile. We adopted a qualitative approach to this research. Given that this study focused on a specific question existing within the marital relationship, brief therapy was adopted as the procedure to approach this question. The research involved two couples in stable, long term relationships, the first couple received 15 sessions and the second couple received 13 sessions, focusing on the complex interpersonal relations that develop between the partners in their attempt to deal with the issue of infertility within their marriage. Two instruments were used during the brief therapy to discuss this issue, the genealogical tree and Sandplay, which enabled a qualitative analysis of the verbal manifestations that accompanied the drawing of the genealogical tree and the Sandplay images made. An analysis of the results suggests that various factors are involved in the conflicts related to infertility, including: the influence of the family of origin, the ambivalence felt towards maternity and paternity, the nature of the communication between the partners and the possibility of grieving for the idealized child. We believe that brief therapy with Sandplay offers the possibility of a more conscious dialogue being developed between the partners, which enables the transformation of defense mechanisms and the strengthening of each individual and consequent transformation of the conjugal self / Esta pesquisa procurou obter um melhor entendimento da complexa questão da infertilidade dentro da relação conjugal. Nosso estudo baseou-se na premissa de que a infertilidade não é uma questão apenas individual, mas também conjugal, e precisa ser assim considerada. Embora, em geral, apenas um dos cônjuges receba o diagnóstico de infertilidade, essa questão pode ser abordada de melhor forma quando considerada como fator estressante para o casal, pois dentro da relação conjugal, os dois ficam inférteis. O método escolhido para esta pesquisa foi qualitativo. Considerando que nosso estudo examinou uma questão específica que existia dentro da relação conjugal, a terapia breve foi considerada como procedimento adequado para abordar essa questão. Com dois casais em relacionamentos estáveis foram realizados 15 sessões por o primeiro casal e 13 sessões por o segundo casal, cujo foco eram as relações interpessoais complexas desenvolvidas entre os cônjuges nas suas tentativas de lidar com o assunto da infertilidade dentro do casamento. Na terapia breve foram utilizados dois instrumentos, o genetograma e o Sandplay, o que permitiu uma análise qualitativa das manifestações verbais dos desenhos dos genetogramas e dos cenários feitos nas caixas de areia. A análise dos resultados sugere que dos conflitos relativos à infertilidade participam vários fatores: a influência da família de origem, a ambivalência frente à maternidade e paternidade, a natureza da comunicação entre os cônjuges e a possibilidade de luto da criança idealizada. Consideramos que a terapia breve com Sandplay oferece uma possibilidade de desenvolvimento de um diálogo mais consciente entre os cônjuges, o que permite a transformação de mecanismos de defesa e o fortalecimento de cada um e a conseqüente transformação do Self conjugal

Denna studie undersöker hur Systembolagets roll kan uppfattas genom deras organisationsberättelse. En tematisk textanalys har gjorts av Systembolagets webbpublicerade material för att fastställa vilka diskurser som framträder i materialet för att framställa deras roll. Denna studie bygger på Zygmunt Baumans teori om vårt samtida konsumtionssamhälle samt John Clarkes resonemang om hur offentliga organisationer har behövt anpassa sig till detta konsumtionssamhälle. Den metodologiska ansats som har använts för att studera detta är foucauldeansk genealogisk diskursanalys. Inom denna diskursteoretiska angreppssätt studerar sambandet mellan ett fenomen och den kontext som fenomenet har uppstått inom. För denna studie handlar det då om hur Systembolagets texter kan förstås utifrån det samtida konsumtionssamhället utifrån vilket texterna har producerats. De diskurser som framträder i materialet är myndighetsdiskursen, ansvarsdiskursen samt servicediskursen. Utifrån de resultat som framträder kan Systembolaget uppfattas som en aktör med en mångsidig identitet, där både organisationens myndighetsutövande och ansvarsfulla sida tillsammans med deras kundorientering får dem att framstå som en modern offentlig verksamhet med konsumenten ständigt i fokus. / This study investigates how Systembolaget’s role can be perceived through their corporate storytelling. A thematic text analysis has been implemented on the presentation published on their website to determine the discourses used to describe their role in our contemporary society. This study is based on Zygmunt Bauman’s theory of consumer society and John Clarke’s review of the public sector adaptation to this consumer society that we live in. The method that has been used to study this is Foucault’s genealogical discourse analysis, where you study the relationship between the phenomena and the context in which the material has been produced. The discourses that appear in the material are the administrative authority discourse, the liability discourse and the service discourse. Based on the results of the study Systembolaget can be perceived as a versatile actor that emphasizes their authoritarian and responsible qualities as well as their customer orientation. This is something that makes them appear like a modern public organization with the consumer constantly in focus.

The epidemiology of blastomycosis remains poorly understood in part due to the lack of a robust and discriminatory strain typing method for Blastomyces dermatitidis. Here we describe the development of a multilocus sequence (MLST) method to study the genetic variation and population structure of B. dermatitidis. Eighty geographically diverse clinical and environmental isolates were examined. Thirty-six unique sequence types were identified. With a discriminatory index of 91.4%, MLST identifies significant genetic diversity for the characterization of local and global B. dermatitidis isolates. To test whether this fungus represented a single species throughout its geographic range we performed phylogenetic analyses, applying Genealogical Concordance Phylogenetic Species Recognition (GCPSR). Phylogenetic analysis revealed two distinct clades, with five of the eight gene phylogenies studied supporting the separation of these lineages, which were also geographically partitioned. Based on fulfillment of GCPSR, we propose the current species B. dermatitidis harbors two genetically distinct non-interbreeding phylogenetic species.

Les prétentions généalogiques sont un phénomène vieux comme le monde, et l'historien actuel a souvent le réflexe de les écarter comme une simple expression de vanité sans fondement. La tentation est d'autant plus forte dans certains cas où l'hiatus social, culturel ou chronologique est particulièrement marqué. Or, on constate que le nombre de ces prétentions augmente considérablement à certaines époques charnières, ce qui est souvent interprété a contrario comme l'illustration de la vanité d'homines noui sans ancêtres. Je me propose ici de nuancer cet a priori en examinant le cas de prétentions formulées par des notables athéniens à l'époque impériale romaine. L'étude prosopographique détaillée des réseaux familiaux auxquels appartenaient ces notables montre que ce qui pourrait sembler au départ n'être qu'une invention triviale est susceptible de recouvrir une réalité soigneusement conservée. Plus généralement, cette étude amène à repenser le phénomène des prétentions généalogiques dans sa totalité. L'expression englobe des réalités multiples et fort diverses qu'on ne peut traiter de la même façon. Par exemple pour les parvenus notoires ou les très anciennes familles aristocratiques. Il faut également distinguer les prétentions qui renvoient à des ancêtres mythologiques et celles qui renvoient à des personnages historiques, sans pour autant les opposer. L'influence des Romains sur les prétentions formulées à Athènes au temps de leur domination apparaît clairement mais il convient d'examiner son poids réel sur une société au passé aristocratique fort ancien. L'étude généalogique sera menée à partir des recueils prosopographiques récents (Persons of Ancient Athens, Lexicon of Greek Personal Names) mais en reprenant l'ensemble du corpus de textes et d'inscriptions dont certaines récemment exhumées. Cette étude mettra en lumière que les Athéniens disposaient de supports suffisants pour véhiculer une mémoire généalogique lointaine. Dans un certain nombre de cas, la reconstruction de filiations détaillées permet même de reconstituer un cheminement précis de la prétention. / Genealogical claims are a phenomenon as old as the hills, but modern historians very often tend to exclude them as a simple expression of pride without any grounds. Temptation is stronger under certain circumstances where the social, cultural or chronological hiatus is very important. We notice that the number of these claims increase considerably during certain transition periods, which is often seen a contrario like the illustration of the pride of homines noui without ancestors. I am proposing here to moderate this a priori by studying claims made by notable Athenians under the Roman Empire. The detailed prosopographic study of the family networks, to which these notables belonged, shows that what seems to be at first stance a trivial invention, is likely to uncover a long hidden reality. Generally speaking, this study intends to fully reconsider the phenomenon of the genealogical claims. The term includes multiple and extremely various findings which cannot be investigated in the same way, for example, the famous parvenus or the very old aristocratic families. It is also necessary to separate the claims from mythological ancestors and those from historical individuals, without contracting them. The influence of the Romans on the claims made in Athens at the time of their domination on the city appears clearly but it is advisable to check its real weight on a society with extremely old aristocratic history. The genealogical study will be conducted based on late prosopographical writings (Persons of Ancient Athens, Lexicon of Greek Personal Names) but will also include the full text corpus and inscriptions, some of witch only recently exavated.This study will highlight the fact that the Athenians had enough support to maintain a genealogical memory going a long way. In a certain number of cases, the reconstruction of detailed filiations even makes it possible to retrace precisely one path of the claim.

Buscou-se elucidar o papel da professora tutora, na Educação a distância no período de 2007 a 2012, com o intuito de estabelecer e compreender suas relações com a feminização da docência, fazendo um nexo com o momento deflagrador deste fenômeno, na década de 1920, e com a precarização da profissão docente no Brasil, tendo o Ceará como lócus de observação e os cursos de licenciatura ofertados no Programa Universidade Aberta do Brasil - UAB do estado do Ceará, no período acima citado, momento em que os cursos de graduação semipresenciais se intensificam em nosso estado, em comparação com o papel exercido pelas mulheres no magistério, na década de 1920. O referencial teórico ancora-se em estudiosos que tratam da mulher no trabalho e no campo da docência, como Almeida (1998), Campos (2002); da mulher na história, na família e na sociedade, como Perrot (2005), D’incao (2011); da história e história da educação, como Braudel (2002), Cavalcante (1998), Holanda (2000), Dallabrida (2009); da educação comparada, como Bereday (1972), Nóvoa (2009), Cavalcante et al. (2011, 2012, 2013, 2014); da mulher e a relação com a psicologia, como Holanda (2012), Chodorow (2002); a respeito da EaD, da tutoria e da prática pedagógica na EaD, como Litto (2009), Bruno e Lemgruber (2009). Quanto aos procedimentos metodológicos, a pesquisa é qualitativa, com abordagem Genealógica, baseada em Foucault (1982, 2003, 2007), posto que se ocupa em estudar a correlação entre discursos e práticas sociais e a explicitação do poder neles presentes, sem a preocupação de alinhar os acontecimentos. Além disso, faz-se uso de História Oral (ALBERTI, 2004; DELGADO, 2010), para trabalhar com o mosaico das experimentações e interpretações humanas em face de um acontecimento, com vistas ao maior enquadramento deste último, por compreender que o vivido e o sentido pelo outro têm um importante valor, na medida em que confere significado ao visto e ao testemunhado. Além da análise bibliográfica e documental, houve a recolha de evidências empíricas junto ao corpo docente, através de entrevistas semiestruturadas, bem como do estudo de ferramentas que monitoram a frequência e a participação no ambiente virtual de aprendizagem. O grupo de sujeitos entrevistados é formado por 12 (doze) professoras tutoras atuantes nas disciplinas pedagógicas da Licenciatura em Matemática ofertada pela UAB, nas instituições informadas. Os achados desta pesquisa, portanto, confirmam parcialmente a hipótese de partida: a feminização da docência, caracterizada pela inserção e participação das mulheres na docência na EaD, nas instituições investigadas, por meio da tutoria a distância, traz impactos em sua vida familiar e profissional, porém não se apresenta como uma causa direta do aprofundamento do processo de precarização da docência para o gênero feminino, uma vez que mulheres e homens são atingidos por esta precarização, em função da docência ser uma profissão destinada ao cuidado das massas, o que não se constitui como foco prioritário para o Estado patriarcal. Porém, no contexto da precarização, a mulher tende a ser a mais atingida, em virtude de toda a carga de atribuições sociais e culturais que a ela são delegadas, travestidas num senso de autocobrança e responsabilidade, porém sem direito pleno à salvaguarda das conquistas trabalhistas.

My thesis "The Analysis of the Genetic Source of the Prestice Black-Pie Pig" deals with the evaluation of the population of the Prestice Black-Pie pigs from the point of view of their numbers, the structure of their population and their reproductive qualities, using the data of the Association of Pig Breeders in Bohemia and Moravia. First the carcass value and meat quality of this original Czech meat bacon breed were evaluated and then a slaughter dissection and laboratory analyses of the meat from the analyzed group of pigs were done. The numbers of PBP pigs have increased significantly especially since 2012 and so has the number of the farms; however in many of them there are fewer than 10 PBP pigs. This is why the PBP pig breeding is rather fragmented and it is difficult to sustain sufficient genetic diversity of the closed population. This is also connected with unequal numbers of the 10 genealogical lines. The Akoga and Amperor lines were the most numerous. Since 2015 the numbers of pigs from different lines have been more balanced. In 2016 two sows from the renewed Apolon line, which had been born from a cryopreserved seed, were put in the farms. The influence of the line was evidential in the statistics: in reproduction as well in productive qualities. Therefore, to sustain sufficient genetic diversity in a small population we need to keep in the stock the maximum number of equally represented genealogical lines. A detailed analysis of reproductive indicators of the years 2013 - 2016 found 9.4 piglets born alive and 8.7 weaned piglets, the farrowing interval of 181 days, the average values of relevant indicators did not meet the requirements of the breeding objective; only one farm met them. Statistically speaking, there were significant differences between the individual farms. In bigger farms there were higher reproductive qualities. Between 1998 and 2016 the average daily gain in weight was 530 g for gilts, 578 g for boars, the muscle fibre ratio for gilts was 58.5 % and for boars 59.3 %, the back fat thickness was the same for both, 1.1 cm. The requirements of the breeding objective were met, except for the lower weight gain for gilts. The average daily weight gain between the years 2009 and 2013 for 577 gilts was 524 g, the average muscle fibre ratio was 59.1 % and the average back fat thickness was 1.03 cm; in all indicators there were statistically evidential differences between individual farms. In bigger farms the muscle fibre share was higher by 0.9 %. In a group of PBP pigs I studied the influence of slaughter weight and gender on carcass value. The statistics clearly showed that the bigger the slaughter weight was, the higher the back fat thickness was, and also the higher the weight of meat parts was, but the share of meat parts was reduced, and the area of MLLT increased, too. The slaughter weight had no influence on the muscle fibre share. The statistics also showed that with the increase in slaughter weight there was an increase in drip loss and the meat was tenderer. There was also a statistically inconclusive increase in intramuscular fat. The statistics also showed that the barrows in the analyzed group had a lot higher average daily gain, a statistically inconclusive higher back fat thickness, lower share of muscle fibre and a statistically conclusive lower share of ham and higher share of intramuscular fat. In the meat of the analyzed group of pigs I studied the content of fatty acids. There was a higher share of undersaturated fatty acids and a high share of n-6 PUFA:n-3 PUFA, which is not considered satisfactory from the nutritional viewpoint.
