The mass displacement of people is a global phenomenon, inherent in human nature and the needfor survival. Over the last 30 years, Greece became a destination country for differentpopulations. Although the last wave of displacement people, starting from 2015, found Greece inan unstable economic situation due to the economic crisis. Since 2015, Greece has been facingthe two types of crises: economic and refugee. The refugee crisis found Greece, like many otherEU countries, unprepared for the number of people that they received. As well, for Greece therefugee crisis can be viewed as a crisis of legitimacy and strategies.During the last five years, Greece made significant steps in the regulation of the refugeesituation, especially after the EU-Turkey agreement in March 2016, when Greece officiallybecame a country of destination from a transit country. However, the laws and ministerialdecisions instead of decreasing the residential segregation led to an increase of socialsegregation. This paradox can be observed in the case of the Athenian municipality.This paradox defined the starting point of this thesis and aimed for the investigation of spatialand social segregation in the center of Athens. To study this theme qualitative data werecollected for analysis, including, semi-structured interviews, analysis of official documents, andobservation.The funding of this thesis illustrates that Greece never lost its status as a transit country. And thatthe biggest challenge that Athenian municipality is facing is the integration of refugees in Greeksociety. The undeveloped integration section shows significant distancing between Greeks andrefugees.

This dissertation examines the concept of anonymous writing where the focus of the study more specifically lies on pseudonymity and the notion that most pseudonymous authors – more often than not – choose to write with different pen names as opposed to just one. The French literary theorist, Gérard Genette, explains this phenomenon by describing pseudonym-use as an addiction that quite simply tends to cause authors to overdose in an abundance of fictitious names. Such was the case with many Scandinavian authors such as Søren Kierkegaard, Karen Blixen, and Victoria Benedictsson– all of which used different pen names but their cases of polypseudonymity differ greatly. To better understand why this is, I´ve chosen to limit my study to the latter of the three and her most-used pseudonyms: Tardif, O. Tvist, and Ernst Ahlgren. Benedictsson’s case can quite simply be considered unique since her latest pseudonym, E. A., was her alter ego and thus an intricate part of her writer persona. Alongside Gérard Genette’s, this paper greatly relies on the French philosopher Michel Foucault’s studies of anonymous practices in order to determine the functions that are most often attributed to pseudonyms. Most commonly, pseudonyms can be seen as a technique that serves to hide the author’s identity; to help improve their chances at publication. Furthermore, pen names can have the ability to enrich the status of the name and, thus, the influence and the effect of the literary work itself. In accordance with all names – fictional or not – pseudonyms may also have a classifying function, as well as a symbolic one. These general functions are examined through Benedictsson’s example where her pseudonyms are analyzed both individually and in comparison to one another. Their functions are largely dependant on the situation and context in which the pseudonyms were used. In other words, they differ greatly in regards to the person that the author corresponded with, as well as the type of media in which the pseudonyms tended to appear– such as letters, novels, newspapers, as well as Benedictsson’s journals. Even more eye-catching is, perhaps, the fact that the functions of these pseudonyms vary concerning specific phases of the author’s literary career.

Lake Victoria, the second largest freshwater body in the world is affected by rise in eutrophication. This is mainly due to anthropogenic activities happening in the catchment. In this study, distribution of six elements (Cu, Zn, N, C, P, and Si) in sediments were studied from the five sites in Kenya namely Kisumu (DK2, OK2), Busia (KK2), Siaya (SPK2 and Kapsabet (KP1A). The elemental flux values were correlated with historical changes in the catchment to see if it can influence the eutrophication in Lake Victoria. Flux calculated for these elements show a strong correlation with anthropogenic activities associated with land-use changes ushered after building of the railroads, agricultural practices and urban development in the catchment. The spatial and temporal changes in distribution of these elements have a distinct signature on the metal flux. The metal flux are correlated with change in trophic conditions in the lake. There is also a distinct difference in metal flux into the lake derived from urban versus rural areas.

Mourning rituals and memorial aesthetics played an integral role in Victorian England. Queen Victoria's poet laureate, Alfred Lord Tennyson, confronted death on a literary level. His national elegiac poetry — addressed to Victoria — is illuminated when read as a funeral sermon. By drawing out the funeral sermon techniques Tennyson incorporates, we see that he assumes a role as religious mediator to counsel and comfort Victoria in her grief. Tennyson's funeral sermon message alters quite distinctively from Albert's death in 1861, to the death of the Duke of Clarence in 1892, where he makes a final effort to restore the Queen to an acceptance of her state and lead her to an active, healthy type of mourning. The corresponding poems, "Dedication" and "The Death of the Duke of Clarence and Avondale: to the Mourners," highlight Tennyson's unique role as spiritual guide for Queen Victoria, and can be read as a series of funeral sermons. Indeed, Tennyson incorporates various funeral sermon elements over decades in order to encourage the Queen to heal and cope with the trauma of death in the royal family.

En esta tesis, intentaré presentar, a través del análisis de los Testimonios, el papel que Victoria Ocampo desempeñó como intelectual en la construcción de una cultura moderna en América Latina. Como lo comprueban las diez series de Testimonios, el aporte de Victoria Ocampo se centró en su labor de difusión cultural. Me interesa estudiar los Testimonios de Victoria Ocampo, debido a que presentan una nueva vertiente autobiográfica caracterizada por presentar experiencias a la manera de ensayos desde la perspectiva de los propios gustos e intereses de la autora. Los Testimonios me parecen originales porque no son ensayos convencionales, sino que más bien reflejan una escritura de corte personal, vinculada al género autobiográfico, que los convierte en ensayos literarios para ser estudiados en sí mismos y no como textos de consulta académica.

Uppsatsen analyserar Victoria Benedictssons ”Ur mörkret” (1888) och Anne Charlotte Lefflers ”Barnet” (1883), två noveller som tillkom under en period i Sverige då frågor om kön debatterades flitigt. Syftet med uppsatsen är att bidra med kunskap om hur värdegrundsarbete angående könsnormer och -värden kan bedrivas i svenskundervisningen på gymnasieskolan. Analysarbetet är därmed uppdelat i två delar: en litterär analys av verkens gestaltning och framställning av kön och könsnormer, och en didaktisk tillämpning av verken i värdegrundsarbete. Den litterära analysen utgår från olika genusteorier, bland annat används Judith Butlers teori om den heterosexuella matrisen för att belysa hur genus konstrueras i relation till andra människor. Den didaktiska tillämpningen utgår från litteraturdidaktiska teorier och främst synen på litteratur som värdeförmedlare och Chambers boksamtal används för att uppmärksamma ett möjligt arbetssätt. Analysen visar att novellerna förmedlar könsnormer som antar att kvinnan är underordnad mannen och att mannen innehar ett naturligt förnuft och dygd. Resultatet visar även att det finns potential att använda novellerna i en kombinerad litteraturundervisning och värdegrundsarbete för att granska könsnormer.
