(1986), Bandeiras Verdes (1988) in order to investigate the potential for communicability and representativeness of these works to maintain a cinematic identify from the methodology based on the triple mimesis and construction of narrative identities. Empirical research framework Maranhão film works are awarded on the issues of cinematrographic Days, important movement for the construction and maintenance of Maranhão cinematic narrative identify. From the triple mimesis concept endorsed by Paul Ricoeur (2012), you can understand how filmic narratives that pass for ethical reasons, begin in broader terms of social and cultural environment insertion of the events narrated and only complete in the times of reading, this visual event, with effective participation of the viewer. / Essa dissertação resulta da pesquisa sobre a produção audiovisual maranhense que compreende o final da década de 70 e parte da década de 80, por incluirmos produções em Super-8 e em 16mm, respectivamente: Periquito Sujo (1979), Greve da meia passagem (1979-1980) e Quem matou Elias Zí? (1986), Bandeiras Verdes (1988) com o objetivo de investigar o potencial de comunicabilidade e de representatividade destas obras para a manutenção de uma identidade cinematográfica a partir da metodologia com base na tríplice mímesis e na construção das identidades narrativas. O referencial empírico da pesquisa são obras fílmicas maranhenses premiadas nas edições das Jornadas cinematográficas, movimento importante para a construção e manutenção da identidade narrativa cinematográfica maranhense. A partir da tríplice mímesis, conceito referendado por Paul Ricoeur (2012), será possível compreender como as narrativas fílmicas, que passam por questões éticas, têm início nas condições mais amplas do entorno social e cultural de inserção dos acontecimentos narrados e somente se completam no momento da leitura, neste caso visual, com a participação efetiva do espectador.

The purpose of this thesis is to examine dynamics and consequences of geographical return movements in two North-South contexts based on migrants' biographies. The thesis examines the consequences of return migration in terms of social mobility, meanings of return and the shaping of identity-place relationships for the subjects of migration. Categories of return were identified and related to evolving migration processes in the two case studies of long term labour migration and political exile respectively. The concept of 'narrative identity' was used to analyse the shaping of the migration biographies and to examine the ways migrants made sense of their experiences of emigration/exile and return. In a further step the narrative identities were discussed in relation to examples of public narratives in the two contexts. The dissertation's case study of US-Mexican migration showed that geographical return took different shapes at the local level as the migration process evolved between the studied municipality in Mexico and different destinations in the USA. The initial phase of formative return led to the gradual establishment of a migration tradition and development of a remittance economy. Return movements turned in a later phase into an increasingly trapped migratory pattern of differentiated circulation between the municipality in Mexico and different locations in the USA. The 'narrative identities' of returning migrants were related to family situations (family formation, safety of the family, family commitment), perceptions of real life in Mexico and work identities (respected worker, independent businessman), negative experiences of migration (threat, social degradation, trapped migration), and the search and fulfilment of personal experiences. These narrative identities were contrasted with public narratives, showing the partial incorporation of some public narratives and contrasting senses of self of migrants in relation to 'imposed identities' in both the USA and Mexico. The second case study of the dissertation identified categories of return movements in a context of changing conditions in both Chile and Sweden. Examples of categories were 'conditional return' and 'programmed return' and in the phase of desexilio professional circulation, continued exile and everyday life circulation. The narrative identities of retornados were related to family situations (children's future and education, the extended family and the family vote), Sweden as 'parenthesis' (programmed return, duty to return, political return, personal return), work identities (independent businessman, professional circulation) and experiences of exclusion (foreigner, immigrant, prolonged political exile). The narrative identities of migrants were discussed in relation to larger public narratives about retornados in the Chilean media. / digitalisering@umu

Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) / ABSTRACT Background: Since British arrival, Aboriginal people have experienced marginalisation and extreme disadvantage within Australian society. Urban-based Aboriginal people, even more than those living in remote communities, have been subject to the impact of racism and discrimination on self-identity. Nonetheless, many urban-based Aboriginal people proudly identify with their Aboriginality. Having long been the subject of others’ research, it is only in recent times that the question of identity has attracted attention in Aboriginal research. Furthermore, few studies have addressed urban Aboriginality from an insider’s perspective. Aim and significance: The main aim of this research was to understand better the process of the construction of Aboriginal identity. Knowing how Aboriginal people see themselves and their future as Aboriginal within the broader Australian community is significant in providing a foundation for both the protection and the preservation of urban-based Aboriginal identity, while helping to create positive practical benefits and minimising the damage to Aboriginal culture that result from collective memory loss. A secondary aim was to test whether tools of narrative analysis could be used within an Indigenous Australian context, utilising Aboriginal Australian English language, and in the context of a specific urban setting. Method: The study used purposeful sampling to recruit 11 individuals from three age cohorts of mixed-descent Aboriginal people living in urban communities on the south coast of New South Wales, Australia. Data were collected through in-depth semi-structured interviews which were tape-recorded and then transcribed in full. Both thematic and narrative methods were employed to analyse the data. Interpretations benefitted from an insider perspective, as the researcher is a member of the community under study. Results: Findings from both methods of analysis show that participants experience their Aboriginality as problematic. Nonetheless, they make strong claims to Aboriginal identity. In making such claims, they link the personal to the social in a variety of ways, drawing on both negative and positive aspects of being part of a marginalised culture to explain the construction of the problem of Aboriginal identity and, as importantly, its on-going resolution through processes of identity construction and re-construction. The Shoalhaven Aboriginal worldview is revealed thorough a thematic analysis of 11 interviews and shows that participants are able to construct positive versions of self when they perceive themselves as living in accordance with the prescribed worldview. Results from case study analyses reveal how four participants distinctly craft the Shoalhaven worldview. The adoption of multi-method qualitative analysis documents the construction of both collective and personal Aboriginal identities and shows how these become core elements of the various strategies for solving the broader problems of Aboriginal identity in contemporary urban Australian society. Conclusion: Understanding the construction of Aboriginal identity from a micro-sociological perspective, with the added benefit of an insider’s analysis, can point the way to the development of more meaningful and appropriate strategies to both address and alleviate the broader problems of Aboriginal marginalisation in Australia. The findings from this research have documented the narrative construction of urban Aboriginal identity revealing the positive and negative aspects of the urban Aboriginal identity concept. A starting point to address the broader problem of Aboriginal marginalisation in Australia is to focus on the positive elements of the urban Aboriginal identity concept, with a view to devise, develop and implement culturally appropriate strategies and policies. The researcher’s life experience, informed by the ontology (collective values and perspectives) of the community, influenced and informed the analysis and results of the study. This shared ontology and community acceptance was integral in the process of developing and maintaining rapport and trust with participants which ultimately shaped the interaction process influencing personal accounts told in the interview.

[pt] A presente tese visa analisar a possibilidade de pensar o outro, ou a alteridade, no seio da escrita diarística, tão comumente compreendida como uma escrita subjetiva. Os diários pessoais, considerados território privilegiado do sujeito, quando examinados sob a perspectiva de sua destinação, revelam um processo de constituição do sujeito que se dá no ato da prática de escrita diarística, através da constituição de uma identidade narrativa e, também, na inserção do outro - como partícipe da vivência inscrita no diário. Para instrumentalizar a análise do corpus, são revistas às noções de identidade pessoal, dentro do campo da filosofia, em particular a contribuição de Paul Ricoeur com sua noção de identidade narrativa. A identidade relacional, como a entende o teórico norte-americano Paul John Eakin também contribui para a explicitação da alteridade como componente da identidade no processo da escrita pessoal. Como seria possível ao sujeito definir- se como o eu da escrita de si? O produto de sua prática textual (seu diário, suas memórias, sua autobiografia, etc.) seria a revelação do sujeito por e para si próprio ou uma atestação da completa impossibilidade de o sujeito conhecer-se por si mesmo? Um ensaio de resposta é possível com a análise de alguns diários sob a perspectiva acima exposta. Entre eles, o diário de Carolina Maria de Jesus, o diário de Alice Dayrell, Minha vida de menina, além de trechos do diário da Princesa Isabel, do médico Felippe Maria Wolff e de um diário pessoal inédito. / [en] The dissertation is the result of a research whose main goal was to analyze the possibility of thinking the other, or the otherness, in the core of diary writing. Personal journals and diaries are considered the privileged territory of the self and upon an exam through the perspective of their destination they reveal a process of identity constitution. The narrative identity created during the practice of personal writing consists also of the presence of otherness - the other that is both the object of writing and its possible reader. The notions of personal identity are reviewed as well as the concept of narrative identity, by Paul Ricoeur, and relational identity, by Paul John Eakin. The diaries that are analyzed in this dissertation are: The diary of Carolina Maria de Jesus, the diary of Alice Dayrell (also known as Helena Morley), excerpts of the diary of Princess Isabel and of the Dr. Felippe Maria Wolff.

[pt] Esta pesquisa propõe que a desmotivação que marca a relação de muitos jovens com a escola poderia ser abrandada caso existissem mais espaços de diálogo com os agentes da instituição, especialmente em situações que permitissem aos alunos a expressão de seus dilemas, sugestões de mudanças e acolhimento das mesmas. Este pressuposto surge da articulação entre referências teóricas da sociologia da juventude e da educação, da psicologia e da filosofia da linguagem, que indicou a necessidade de estudar-se o jovem em sua condição situada, agente que constroi sua própria identidade através da linguagem e da narrativa. O objetivo desta pesquisa foi, por um lado, compreender quais são os discursos que competem na construção da identidade aluno dos jovens participantes da pesquisa e, por outro, avaliar como as situações de expressão individual e de interação permitem que essas identidades se (re)elaborem de forma consciente. Para tanto, convidamos dois grupos de jovens do Ensino Médio de uma escola pública na zona sul do Rio de Janeiro para participar de oficinas de elaboração de um roteiro e de videogravação. Desenvolvemos, com base na abordagem de pesquisa autobiográfica, uma metodologia composta por três partes: (1) uma redação autobiográfica individual, (2) a elaboração coletiva de um roteiro de inspiração autobiográfica e (3) uma entrevista individual videogravada. A análise dos depoimentos dos participantes mostrou que, apesar de apresentarem dilemas semelhantes próprios da fase de transição e do contexto socioeconômico em que vivem, os jovens elaboram de formas diversas suas identidades e projetos de trajetória de vida. / [en] This research suggests that the lack of motivation that marks the relationship of many young people with school could change if there were more opportunities for dialogue with the institution, specially through providing situations that allow students to express their dilemmas and ideas. This assumption stems from the connection found between theoretical references in the areas of sociology of youth and education, psychology and philosophy of language. Such connection indicated the need to study the student in his/her situated condition, as an agent who constructs his/her own identity through language and narratives. The aim of this study was first, to understand what are the competing discourses in the construction of student identities for those involved in the research, and, second, to analyze how the situations of individual expression and interaction allow those identities to be consciously re-constructed. To this end, we invited two groups of high school students from a public school in the city of Rio de Janeiro to participate in workshops and prepare a script that would then be video.

Notre recherche « L'exil dans l’œuvre de Fulvio Tomizza » analyse l’œuvre tomizienne au prisme de l'exil, cause et principal sujet de son écriture. L’œuvre tomizzienne fait de l'écriture fictionnelle le terrain d'investigation à travers lequel l'auteur s'interroge sur les composantes conflictuelles de son identité multiple que l'exode istrien a mises au jour et accentuées : italianité/slavité, urbanité/ruralité, traditions familiales conservatrices/convictions personnelles progressistes.La recomposition de l'identité narrative de l'auteur suit le cheminement d'une écriture multiforme qui prend trois directions. La première consiste en l'anamnèse de la dimension collective de l'identité de l'auteur, représentée par la configuration romanesque du « piccolo mondo » istrien avant, pendant et après l'exode. Elle se poursuit par des romans et des récits d'inspiration ouvertement autobiographique, caractérisés par une autoanalyse exprimant le drame individuel et psychologique de l'exil, notamment à travers l'écriture onirique. Enfin, les romans historico-documentaires approfondissent l'analyse de l'exil par la décentration partielle de l'objet d'investigation qui transforme l'auteur en enquêteur et juge de drames similaires au sien ayant affecté la vie d'autres individus. / Our research « Exile in Tomizza's work » analyses the author's production through the concept of exile which, as the main cause and subject of his writing, provides a coherent framework for reading it.Tomizza's work uses fiction as a means of investigating the conflicting components of the author's multiple identity that the Istrian exodus revealed and emphasized: Italianness vs Slavness, urbanism vs rurality, conservative family traditions vs progressive personal convictions.The recomposing of the author's narrative identity follows the course of a multiform writing that moves in three directions. The first one consists of the anamnesis of the collective dimension of the author's identity, represented by the fictional setting of the Istrian "piccolo mondo" before, during and after the exodus. From there, it moves on to novels and short stories of openly autobiographical inspiration. These are characterized by a self-analysis that expresses the individual and psychological tragedy of exile, particularly through oneiric writing. Lastly, the historical-documentary novels deepen the analysis of exile through the partial decentering from the object of investigation by which the author is transformed into investigator and judge of dramas similar to his own that affected the lives of other individuals.

1 ABSTRACT The diploma thesis deals with one's own understanding of the career success of individuals successful in business. Its aim is to describe the causal attributions of individuals to success factors and to place them in a simplified framework of the narrative identity of success to evaluate trends in causal attributions at the individual level. In the theoretical part, the work describes the issues of career and success, while providing insight into various definitions and approaches. It also discusses causal attributions and attributional tendencies in human perception. After that, it explains the concept of narrative identity and its development. The practical part describes qualitative research, which includes data in the form of four unstructured interviews with career-successful individuals. Data analysis was inspired by selected principles of grounded theory and narrative analysis. The analysis of the data showed a unique link between the causal attributes of individuals and the development of the narrative identity of their success. The most important factor of success was diligence/hard working as sacrificing time for other activities and fascination with the topic. Furthermore, the qualities acquired during life and the influence of the individual's social world came to the fore. It turned...

The thesis attempts to present a comparative reading of selected works by Egon Hostovský with an emphasis on the poetics associated with the themes of memory and recollection. Attention is focused mainly on the role that the memory of the protagonists plays in the constitution of the narrating subject and other characters of the literary piece, on the relationship between memories and fiction (i. e. memory and imagination) and on the origin and function of sentimental or nostalgic motives that emerge in this context. The core of the thesis consists of reading Hostovský's works written between 1930s and 1940s. Key words: Egon Hostovský, memory, recollection, narrative identity, fiction, nostalgia

This thesis addresses identity issues of the Ukrainian elites using two parallel Ukrainian narratives. In search for conflict lines, we look at 20th ct. milestones which played a major part in the formation of the Ukrainian elites. An emphasis is placed on the modernization of Ukrainian society in 1920s and 1930s. We also analyze the impact of these two Ukrainian narratives on the formation of the Soviet nation using strong historical ties between the Ukrainian and the Russian nation. These ties still have an impact on the formation of Ukrainian identities; however, the conclusion of this thesis suggests that it will be possible to assess the definite shape of the Ukrainian identity only after a new supranational identity - similar to the Soviet one - has been shaped.
