In the Company of Gentiles: Exploring the History of Integrated Jews in British Columbia, 1858-1971

Nordlinger McDonnell, Lillooet 07 September 2011 (has links)
By way of five microhistories focusing on the lives of Cecelia Davies Sylvester, Hannah Director, Leon Koerner, Harry Adaskin, and Nathan Nemetz, this study examines various modes of integration for Jews within particular periods of British Columbian (BC) history. Each microhistory explores the boundaries that were crossed and fostered by Jews whose careers and social contributions led them outside the confines of the established Jewish community. These Jews represent the vanguard of Jewish integration for each era to which they contributed.

Intervenções reabilitadoras do período renascentista italiano

Manenti, Leandro January 2004 (has links)
A presente dissertação procura analisar e discutir as obras de reabilitação de edificações existentes no período do Renascimento Italiano, compreendido entre os séculos XV e XVI. Nosso estudo buscou este período histórico por se tratar dos primórdios deste tipo de intervenção praticadas de forma consciente e com conhecimento histórico, além do fato de o confronto entre a situação existente e as novas inserções constituírem um rico universo de estudo das transformações sociais e arquitetônicas do período. Através da análise de obras de três arquitetos (Leon Battista Alberti, Michelangelo Buonarroti e Andrea Palladio), procuramos: entender como se operavam tais intervenções, reconstituindo a situação existente e as novas inserções a partir da historiografia do projeto e do contexto histórico que o cerca; identificar as interpretações de uma determinada sociedade sobre seus edifícios em épocas distintas; e buscar posturas e exemplos de projetos para nosso presente.

Concepção de arte que apresentam nas respectivas obras, “O destino da literatura” e O que é Arte?. Os escritores desempenharam o papel de “semeador de idéias” e de “batedor do futuro” ao se posicionarem contrários aos “mandarins literários”. Uma arte voltada para o social, aliás, uma literatura militante. Lima Barreto criou uma arte literária que rompeu com os moldes convencionais na virada do século XIX, que tinha como principais representantes: Machado de Assis, Rui Barbosa, Coelho Neto, entre outros; enquanto Leon Tolstói rompeu com a poética romântica e o realismo francês. Ambos foram, terminantemente, contrários à estética da arte pela arte. A referência aos escritores russos é constante na obra barretiana, até porque Lima Barreto jamais omitiu suas leituras. Desde o romance Vida e Morte de M. J. Gonzaga de Sá, o primeiro a ser escrito por Lima, é possível detectar a presença de Leon Tolstói. Presença essa que permeia todo o projeto literário de Lima Barreto e que se faz sentir através da posição que ambos assumem em relação a temas em comum, tais como: a Propriedade, a Igreja, o Estado, a educação da mulher, o serviço militar obrigatório, entre outros. Revelando assim, um eixo em comum: o ideário anarquista. Mas, principalmente, por refletirem sobre a função da literatura e o fazer literário. / This dissertation was carried out to evaluate the conception of art found in the works of Afonso Henriques de Lima Barreto (1881-1922) and Leo Tolstoi (1828 -1910) according to a comparative point-of-view, in order to find out agreements and disagreements between them. Conception of art found in their works “O destino da literatura” and “O que é Arte?”. Both writers played the role of “sowers of ideas” and “beaters of the future” as they put up opposition to the so-called “literary mandarins”. An art oriented to the social issue, that is, a militant literature. Lima Barreto created a literary art which broke off the ties with conventional models in the turn of the 19th century, whose main representatives were Machado de Assis, Rui Barbosa, Coelho Neto, among others; Leo Tolstoi, in his turn, broke off the ties with Romantic poetry and French Realism. Both were utterly opposed to the esthetics of art for art’s sake. References to Russian writers are often found in Lima Barreto’s works, since he never omitted his readings. As early as his first novel Vida e Morte de M. J. Gonzaga de Sá, one can notice Leo Tolstoi’s influence. Influence which permeates all of his literary project and which is felt through the opposition both writers assume in connection with issues they have in common such as: Property, the Church, the State, women’s education, obligatory military draft, among others. Thus, they showed the axis they had in common: the anarchist belief system. But, mainly, because they pondered over the function and the making of literature.

Do palco ao écran : Eles não usam black-tie

Considering the passage from the play text to the film as a process of "intersemiotic translation" (following Roman Jakobson), or "transcreation" (as established by Haroldo de Campos), we propose an approximation to Hirszman's creative thought, artist witch, as Guarnieri, has marked the Brazilian political and cultural scenario for the past decades. / Esta pesquisa tem por objetivo conhecer o processo de criação do filme Eles não usam blacktie (1981), de Leon Hirszman, baseado na peça homônima de Gianfrancesco Guarnieri, utilizando o referencial teórico fornecido pela Crítica de Processo (conforme Cecilia Salles) e os documentos referentes à realização da obra, tais como Argumentos, roteiros, Storyboard, entre outros. Tomando a passagem do texto teatral para a obra audiovisual como um processo de transposição intersemiótica (seguindo Roman Jakobson), ou ainda de transcriação (no sentido desenvolvido por Haroldo de Campos), propomos uma aproximação ao pensamento criador de Hirszman, artista que, assim como Guarnieri, marcou o cenário político-cultural brasileiro das últimas décadas.

Die „Theorie der kognitiven Dissonanz“ – fruchtbar oder obsolet?

Mothes, Cornelia 06 August 2008 (has links)
Der vorliegende Aufsatz unternimmt den Versuch, die einst für die Kommunikationswissenschaft höchst relevante „Theorie der kognitiven Dissonanz“ des Sozialpsychologen Leon Festinger erneut ins wissenschaftliche Bewusstsein zu rücken. Während der Dissonanzforschung innerhalb der Psychologie auch heute noch Erkenntnispotentiale zugesprochen werden, ist sie in der Kommunikationswissenschaft kaum mehr von Bedeutung. Betrachtet man aber aktuelle Forschungsfragen, mit denen sich Kommunikationswissenschaftler beschäftigen, fällt auf, dass gerade die Dissonanzforschung alternative Erklärungen für gegenwärtige Probleme in Mediengesellschaften bieten kann. Diese Annahme wird am Beispiel der Politikverdrossenheit und unter Rückgriff auf das Konzept der „Dis-Identification“ einer explorativen Prüfung unterzogen. / This paper attempts to reconsider the value of Festinger’s „Theory of Cognitive Dissonance“ on mass media topics. Investigations in cognitive dissonance still represent an important field of research in social psychology. Yet, despite having once been one of the most important psychological theories on selective exposure, the concept is barely seen as relevant to current communication studies. Indeed, Festinger’s assertions have lost scientific importance in media studies. However, if one examines the present research topics in communication science, several objects of investigation can be identified that seem to call for psychological explanations in general and for Dissonance Theory predictions in particular. Thus, a reintegration seems to be worthwhile. The author exemplifies this intention by connecting political malaise with the concept of “Dis-identification”.

Ethnographic Literary Journalism

Swasey, Christel Lane 16 July 2009 (has links) (PDF)
Leon Dash and Ted Conover have modeled an ethnographic approach to literary journalism. This approach combines literary journalism's compelling narrative techniques with ethnographic “naturalist-like” (Brewer, 2000) thoroughness and trustworthiness. Rosa Lee: A Mother in Urban America, by Leon Dash, and Newjack: Guarding Sing Sing, by Ted Conover, exemplify this painstaking method that skillfully uses the narrative craft, generates trustworthy data, and contributes to an academic body of knowledge as well as exposing findings to the general public. Dash, Conover, and others have demonstrated the synergy and problem-solving potential of merging anthropology with literary journalism, yet there is no typology, no common name and no set of ground rules describing this work. Identifying Dash's and Conover's methods may advance cross-pollination between anthropology and literary journalism, fields that share the role of reporting on contemporary culture. This cross-pollination serves both disciplines. Ethnography stands to increase its numbers of readers by enlisting the writing techniques of literary journalists and by publishing “more public-spirited” (Fillmore, 1987, p. 1) findings in more public venues. Literary journalism stands to be seen and applied as a credible form of qualitative science by enlisting trustworthy naturalistic methods and aiming to contribute to an academic body of knowledge. This thesis explores the promise of ethnographic naturalism in narrative form, as “scholarship for real readers” (S. Olsen, March 2, 2009, personal communication) by examining how practitioners meet rigorous naturalistic criteria for trustworthiness (Lincoln & Guba, 1985) and how they present findings in narrative forms and public venues. This exploration draws on personal interviews with Dash and Conover and analyses of their long-form narrative research texts in the context of other scholars' outlooks. Key findings include the discovery that although Dash and Conover were not consciously using naturalistic criteria for trustworthiness, their work meets these criteria. Another key finding is that while both writers consider themselves primarily journalists, they both have read anthropology extensively. A notable finding is the fact that Dash and Conover rely on time-invested “unfettered inquiry,” (Dash, 1996) the mind-set of insatiable curiosity, caring and the liberty to apply practices of other disciplines to conduct research, free from external controls.
