Hardy's creatures : encountering animals in Thomas Hardy's novelsWest, Anna January 2015 (has links)
‘Hardy's Creatures' examines the human and nonhuman animals who walk and crawl and twine and fly and trot across and around the pages of Thomas Hardy's novels: figures on two feet and on four, some with hands, all with faces. Specifically, the thesis traces the appearances of the term ‘creature' in Hardy's works as a way of levelling the ground between humans and animals and of reconfiguring traditional boundaries between the two. Hardy firmly believed in a ‘shifted [...] centre of altruism' after Darwin that extended ethical consideration to include animals. In moments of encounter between humans and animals in his texts—encounters often highlighted by the word ‘creature'—Hardy seems to test the boundaries that were being debated by the Victorian scientific and philosophical communities: boundaries based on moral sense or moral agency (as discussed in chapter two), language and reason (chapter three), the possession of a face (chapter four), and the capacity to suffer and perceive pain (chapter five). His use of ‘creature', a word that can have both distinctly human and uniquely animal meanings, draws upon the multiple (and at times contradictory) connotations embedded in it, complicating attempts to delineate decisively between two realms and offering instead ambiguity and irony. Hardy's focus on the material world and on embodiment, complemented by his willingness to shift perspective and scale and to imagine the worlds of other creatures, gestures towards empathy and compassion while recognizing the unknowability of the individual. His approach seems a precursor to the kind of thinking about and with animals being done by animal studies today. Encountering Hardy's creatures offers a new way of wandering through Wessex, inviting readers to reconsider their own perspectives on what it means to be a creature.

On the value group of exponential and differential ordered fieldsHaias, Manuela Ioana 25 August 2007
The first chapter comprises a survey of valuations on totally ordered structures, developing notation and properties. A contraction map is induced by the exponential map on the value group $G$ of an ordered exponential field $K$ with respect to the natural valuation $v_{G}$. By studying the algebraic properties of Abelian groups with contractions, the theory of these groups is shown to be model complete, complete, decidable and to admit elimination of quantifiers. Hardy fields provide an example of non-archimedean
exponential fields and of differential fields and therefore, they play a very important role in our research.<p>In accordance with Rosenlicht we define asymptotic couples and then give a short exposition of some basic facts about asymptotic couples. The theory $T_{P}$ of closed asymptotic triples, as defined in Section 2.4, is shown to be complete, decidable and to have elimination of quantifiers. This theory, as well as the theory $T$ of closed $H$-asymptotic couples do not have the independence property. The main result of the second chapter is that there is a formal connection between asymptotic couples of $H$-type and contraction groups.<p>A given valuation of a differential field of characteristic zero is a differential valuation if an analogue of l'Hospital's rule holds. We present in the third chapter, a survey of the most important properties of a differential valuation. The theorem of M. Rosenlicht regarding the construction of a differential field with given value group is given with a detailed proof. There exists a Hardy field, whose value group is a given asymptotic couple of Hardy type, of finite rank. We also investigate the problem of asymptotic integration.
