Joie et souffrance dans la philosophie de Vladimir Jankélévitch

Desilets-Paquet, Arthur 04 1900 (has links)
Cette thèse s’intéresse aux souffrances morales dans la philosophie de Vladimir Jankélévitch, plus particulièrement le remords, l’ennui et la nostalgie. L’analyse suit deux axes, d’abord un axe herméneutique où il s’agit de comprendre la signification de ces souffrances en les replaçant dans une anthropologie philosophique et une ontologie qui leur donne sens. Ensuite un axe thérapeutique qui indique comment ces formes de souffrances peuvent orienter le devenir de manière à vivre plus harmonieusement. Sur ces bases, la thèse élabore une étude en profondeur de la joie chez Jankélévitch, laquelle s’est dessinée en creux dans l’analyse des souffrances. En effet, le remords permet de bien comprendre le lien puissant entre la joie et l’amour. Les analyses de l’ennui et de la nostalgie permettent quant à elles de saisir son ancrage temporel. / This thesis investigate the question of moral suffering in the philosophy of Vladimir Jankélévitch, specifically remorse, boredom and nostalgia. The analysis uses two different perspectives. First of all, a hermeneutic one working on the meaning of these sufferings and showing their roots in a philosophical anthropology and in an ontology. Secondly, a therapeutic point of view showing how these suffering can help becoming more harmoniously. Based on this analysis, this thesis concludes on an analysis of joy. The analysis of remorse permits to seize the fundamental love dynamic at work in joy. The analysis of boredom and nostalgia provide the temporal part of it.

"Against the Unwritability of Utopia" : Resurgent Bodies of Joy in Contemporary Queer Indigenous Literature

Ashcroft, Brezshia 25 August 2022 (has links)
Working at the intersection of queer feminist affect studies and queer Indigenous studies, this thesis focuses on theorizations and enactments of queer Indigenous joy in Billy-Ray Belcourt's A History of My Brief Body, Gregory Scofield's Love Medicine and One Song, and Joshua Whitehead's Jonny Appleseed. It explores how these contemporary texts uniquely emphasize the relational queer Indigenous body’s tenacious capacity for care and love in order to enact more breathable, collective, and ultimately joyful modes of embodied life, even amid the stifling settler colonial present. I argue that, in doing so, these authors foster joy as a rebellious and healing affective orientation that opposes injurious colonial constructions of queer Indigenous embodiment and contributes to the future-bearing project of radical Indigenous resurgence. By examining these authors' invaluable interventions with joy, which is largely an under-acknowledged positive affect, this thesis aims to convey why the young but burgeoning field of queer Indigenous literature merits far more critical attention than it has received thus far.

Orifice of Return

Ankong, Honora Awamie 15 June 2022 (has links)
Orifice of Return is a collection of poetry that posits Black femme bodies as living and breathing archives, corporeal manifestations of intuitive and intellectual claims at survival. The poems in this collection illustrate the multifaceted nature of my craft, through which the personal, the collective, and the political are commingled, but wrestling forces. As Audre Lorde declares, there are many kinds of open, the poems of this collection are orifices, textual portals, spatial and temporal fissures, and entryways into Black past, present, and future. These poems use received forms (the ghazal, the ode, the cento, the obverse, litany, etc.) and employ stylistic devices like (direct address, song lyrics, colloquial speech and slang, etc.) These poems interrogate histories and imagine speculative futures for Black folks. They exist in lineage— familial, imagined, literary ancestral, and with the theoretical underpinnings of Black feminist hauntology and Toni Morrison's "rememory." Some of these poems are lyrically driven, while others are performance and rhythmically driven— all facing inwards and outwards, aware of the world they exist in. / Master of Fine Arts / ORIFICE OF RETURN is a poetry collection.

Kniha Píseň písní jako odpověď na Kazatelovu marnost / The Book Song of Songs as an Answer to Qohelet's Vanity

FILIPOVÁ, Anna January 2019 (has links)
This thesis is concerned with, in the words of Song of Songs, finding an appropriate answer to Qohelet's vanity - vanity of a human life and things that inherently come with it, as Qohelet himself proclaims in his book. The first chapter introduces the Book of Qohelet and aims to capture the main themes of vanity and transience, while also providing the ways out from this situation, as presented by Qohelet. The second chapter introduces the reader to the Song of Songs book while also describing its content which concerns the interpretation of love between a man and a woman. The third chapter brings forward efforts of the author and the main themes and conclusions of the book are analysed. This allows - in the conclusion of this thesis - to answer the question of whether the love in the Songs of Songs is a possible answer to Qoheleth's vanity - the transience of a human life, as brought out by Qohelet in his work.

Lycklig är den, vars arbete är en lek : Att skapa lust och undvika lustfällor i musiklekandet med förskolebarn / Happy is the one whose work is play : To create desire and avoid traps in musical play making whith preschoolers

Fagerberg, Kerstin January 2015 (has links)
Med hjälp av denna vetenskapliga essä undersöker jag hur man kan uppmärksamma och värna leken och glädjen i musicerandet med förskolebarn. Detta belyser jag inte enbart ur barnens perspektiv utan även ur mitt eget och mina kollegors. Med hjälp av berättelser från min vardag på förskolan och utifrån min praktiska kunskap, ger jag en bild av hur detta kan te sig. Dessa berättelser är ett fundament för mina vidare reflektioner. Vad lek och leklust är skärskådar jag genom att bena upp begreppen i mindre beståndsdelar. Jag reflekterar bland annat över förberedelser, stämning, material, att bedöma gränser, stöttning av enskilda barn, att hålla sig öppen, arbetslaget, risken med longörer och nödvändigheten av humor. Den röst som jag huvudsakligen låter komma till tals är Johan Huizingas. Hans idéer om lekens väsen har hjälpt mig att formulera mina egna tankar. Andra får bistå mig för att ytterligare förtydliga, fördjupa och kontrastera mina resonemang. / Using this scientific essay, I examine how to recognize and protect the play and the joy of music-making with preschoolers. I highlight this not only from the children's, but also from my own and my colleagues, perspective. With the help of stories from my everyday life at preschool and based on my practical knowledge, I provide a picture of how this may emerge. These stories are the foundation for my further reflections. I scrutinize what play and playfulness are and carefully analyze the phenomenon into smaller parts. I reflect about, among other things, the preparation, atmosphere, materials, assessing rules, the support of individual children, ability to stay open, teamwork, the risk of verbosity and the necessity of humor. The voice that primarily has it's say belongs to Johan Huizinga. His ideas regarding the essence of play has helped me formulate my own thoughts. Others has also helped me to clarify, deepen, and contrast my own reasoning in this essay.

"Att leva öppet som trans har gett mig tillbaka mitt liv...och vilket liv det är!" : En studie av minoritetsglädje och positiva erfarenheter hos transkvinnor och transmän. / ”To live openly as trans has given me my life back…and what a life it is!” : A study on minority joy and positive experiences among transwomen and transmen.

Filis, Paulina January 2022 (has links)
Transpersoner lider en ökad risk jämfört med övrig befolkning att utveckla psykisk och fysisk ohälsa, samt en rejält förhöjd risk för suicid. Trots detta mår många transpersoner bra och är generellt nöjda med sitt liv och sitt mående. Fram till idag har inga svenska studier gjorts kring vad i transidentiteten som gör att många transpersoner också mår bra. Detta arbete har därmed ämnat undersöka positiva aspekter med att vara trans, hur dessa kan ta sig i uttryck och hur deltagarna upplevt dem, i ett försök att konceptualisera begreppet minoritetsglädje. Fem transmän och sex transkvinnor har genom semistrukturerade intervjuer besvarat frågor om vad minoritetsglädje innebär för dem, och med hjälp av en tematisk analys genererades sju teman.  Temana beskriver hur deltagarna upplevt och upplever mycket glädje och lycka tack vare sin identitet, där den mest återkommande glädjen beskrivs i samband med att kunna leva autentiskt för sig själv och omgivningen. Även aspekter som att känna könseufori, att ha tillgång till och kunna bidra till communityt samt att få en ökad insikt och förståelse för samhällsstrukturer och privilegier gav deltagarna en känsla av syfte, och glädje. Precis som minoritetsstress är unika hälsopåfrestningar för minoritetspersoner är minoritetsglädje för dessa deltagare den unika glädjen som bara kan upplevas som minoritet, eller bara som transperson. Resultaten går i linje med tidigare positiva aspekter som framkommit i studier med transpersoner, men arbetet bidrar också med viktig information som aldrig tidigare konceptualiserats på svensk nivå och som kan nyansera såväl den vetenskapliga som den samhälleliga debatten om transpersoners mående.

Party to the People : Rethinking how we listen to music on our interfaces

Spreitzer, Marie January 2024 (has links)
This thesis explores the role of interaction design in elevating the solitary experiences of music listening by infusing them with the joy and connection typically found in the communal music setting of parties. Drawing upon historical and cultural contexts, the research investigates how music acts as a medium for social interaction and emotional expression, from its political implications in Berlin's techno scene to its power to unite people in clubs and concerts. The project began with a focus on enhancing DJ-audience interactions and evolved into exploring how these dynamic communal experiences could inform the design of solitary listening experiences on digital platforms like Spotify. The research employs a mixed methodology combining auto-ethnography, in-depth interviews, and testing to develop and refine six interfaces that embody the joy of communal music experiences. These interfaces aim to recreate the sense of togetherness and emotional engagement often lost in solitary music consumption. The findings highlight that joy is a deeply personal and context-dependent phenomenon, influenced by the nuances of social interactions and individual emotional states. This insight guides the design of interfaces that adapt to and enhance the listener's emotional landscape. The project contributes to interaction design by challenging conventional design approaches that prioritise functionality over emotional resonance, aiming to serve as inspiration for designs that value emotions as central to the interaction experience. It also proposes future research directions focusing on the ethical implications of emotionally driven design and the potential for these interfaces to foster deeper connections in an increasingly digital world.
