Tendo em vista um cenário em que os dispositivos de registro do real adquirem onipresença na vida cotidiana, o jornalismo se encontra em um período de readequação de suas estratégias narrativas e de seu modus operandi. A presente tese procura investigar as reconfigurações no telejornalismo em razão da ubiquidade de câmeras, que capturam registros produzidos tanto pelas mídias quanto por instâncias externas a elas, e que oferecem aos veículos jornalísticos um material inesgotável e irrecusável, visto estar cercado de uma expectativa de autenticidade. Propõe-se então uma categorização às câmeras, sistematizadas como câmeras oniscientes e onipresentes, de modo a nos aproximarmos à especificidade do fenômeno. Em comum, todas as câmeras apontam à busca de uma estética realista, baseada no reconhecimento de uma baixa interferência midiática. Desse modo, o que se observa é o emprego de estratégias narrativas e estéticas para que o telejornalismo possa se apropriar destes conteúdos gerados por estas máquinas de visibilidade, que trazem às mídias algo que ficaria anteriormente restrito aos bastidores, operando também com sintoma da desfronteirização entre o público e o privado. A partir deste percurso metodológico, intenta-se por fim compreender de que forma estes dispositivos são utilizados para a concretização de novos efeitos de realismo ao jornalismo. / Considering a scenario where the technologic devices that visually register the world acquire omnipresence in everyday life, journalism is in a period of readjustment of its narrative strategies and its modus operandi. This research intents to investigate the changes in TV journalism because of the ubiquity of cameras, which capture images produced both by the media and by external institutions, since they offer to the journalistic enterprises an inexhaustible and irresistible material, because it is surrounded by an expectation of authenticity. We propose then a categorization of these machines, which are systematized as omniscient and omnipresent cameras, for the purpose of understanding the specificity of the phenomenon. In common, all of these cameras point to the search for a realistic aesthetics, based on the recognition of a low media interference. Thus, it is observed that the TV stations use some strategies to adapt these contents in their narratives, which bring to the media something that would previously be restrict to the backstage area. In a sense, they operate as a symptom o the erosion of the boundaries between public and private. With this methodological course, we finally attempt to understand how these technologic devices are used to achieve effects of realism to journalism.

Die Dissertation besteht aus drei Kapiteln. Im ersten Kapitel wird unter der Bezeichnung “Adjustment Utility” eine neue Komponente individuellen Nutzens eingeführt. Mit einem Experiment, daß ich mit Studenten durchgeführt habe, zeige ich erst, daß diese Nutzenkomponente existiert. Dann entwickele ich ein Modell, welches aufzeigt, wann und in welcher Weise Adjustment Utility den Gesamtnutzen von Individuen sowie ihr ökonomisch relevantes Entscheidungsverhalten beeinflußt. Daten zu HIV Infektionen und der Verwendung von Kondomen in Deutschland zeigt die Relevanz der Modellergebnisse. Das zweite Kapitel betrachtet ein weiteres Experiment, welches zeigt, daß Individuen absichtlich imitieren, auch in Situationen, in denen sie durch Imitation nichts lernen können. Das ergänzt die bisherige experimentelle Forschung, die zwar zeigen konnte, daß individuelles Verhalten mit Imitationsmotiven konsistent ist, bei der das beobachtete Verhalten sich jedoch auch mit genuinen Lernmotiven erklären ließ. Darüber hinaus zeigen die Ergebnisse des Experiments, daß bei der Wahl dessen, den die Individuen imitieren, sie die Ergebnisse ihrer Mitspieler über mehrere Runden berücksichtigen, statt nur das Ergebnis der letzten Runde, wie in der Literatur meist angenommen. Abschließend analysiere ich im dritten Kapitel die Frage, ob staatliche Banken aufgrund der staatlichen Einlagengarantie einen Wettbewerbsvorteil gegenüber privaten Banken haben. Staatliche Banken unterliegen Einschränkungen ihrer Geschäftsstrategie, die durch ihr Mandat begründet sind, die wirtschaftliche Entwicklung zu unterstützen. Das heißt, daß staatliche Banken nicht öffentlich erklären können, alle Kreditnehmer, welche sich in finanziellen Schwierigkeiten befinden, dem Konkurs zu überlassen. Diese Einschränkung gibt privaten Banken die Möglichkeiten, Kreditnehmer durch Selbstselektion zu separieren, in den Markt einzutreten und sogar im Gleichgewicht Gewinne zu erwirtschaften. / The dissertation consists of three chapters. The first chapter considers a novel component of individual utility, which I term “adjustment utility”. In a classroom experiment, I first show that this component of utility exists. I then develop a model to show when and in what way adjustment utility affects overall utility and economic decision making. Data on HIV infections and use of condoms in Germany shows the relevance of the results. For the second chapter I conducted an experiment, which shows that individuals imitate intentionally, even in settings where they cannot learn anything by doing so. This complements previous experimental research, which could show that individual behavior is consistent with imitation motives, but where behavior could also be explained by learning motives. In addition, the results show that when subjects choose whom to imitate, they consider the results of other players over several periods, rather than only of the last period, as assumed in previous work. Finally, in the third chapter, I analyze the question whether state-owned banks have a competitive advantage over private banks due to a state guarantee on their deposits. State-owned banks face a restriction of their business strategies, which is due to their mandate of “supporting economic development”. As a consequence, state-owned banks cannot publicly declare to liquidate all borrowers in financial distress. This offers private banks the opportunity to separate borrowers by self-selection, enter the market and make profits in equilibrium.

La domanialité des biens de l'administration publique à l'épreuve des régimes fonciers traditionnels pose le problème de la situation juridique du domaine au Mali. Il s'agit de donner la photographie des biens de l'administration publique ainsi que leur évolution par rapport aux régimes fonciers coutumiers. Cette étude passe naturellement par un aperçu historique des biens de l'Etat et des collectivités territoriales. Nous aborderons en même temps la situation juridique des biens au sens traditionnel de l'expression. Il sera notamment question de l'étude des biens pendant la période précoloniale, coloniale et postcoloniale. Avant la colonisation,le domaine tel que connu aujourd'hui n'existait pas et le mode de détention des biens était collectif. On ne parlait pas de domaine mais bien plutôt de propriété collective. Aussi, ce ne sont pas les lois qui ont établi les modes de tenure traditionnelle mais plutôt les principes quazi religieux. Les biens qui constituent aujourd'hui le domaine de l'Etat et des collectivités locales appartenaient, non pas aux hommes mais aux divinités. Ils étaient la propriété de la collectivité et étaient gérés le chef de terre ou le Dji tigui (propriétaire de l'eau). Ces derniers étaient les dépositaires d'une partie de la souveraineté divine et en même temps les délégués des puissances supérieures. Plus qu'ils ne les possédaient, la terre et l'eau étaient les propriétaires du chef de terre net du Dji tigui. Leurs obligations étaient dictées par les croyances ancestrales amoindries certes par le temps et les interprétations partisanes. Ces biens n'étaient pas dans le commerce juridique, ils étaient inaliénables. La propriété individuelle existait certes, mais elle n'était pas très repandue. Elle ne concernait ni la terre ni les cours d'eau. Cette propriété individuelle au sens du code civil ne pouvait concerner que certains biens biens mobiliers à l'exception de ceux qui constituaient la fortune mobilière indispensable des collectivités indigènes. A l'entame de la colonisation, l'Etat colonial décidait, non sans opposition, de mettre en place le système expérimenté en Australie du Sud par les anglais à savoir l'Act Torrens. Les indigènes avaient leur propre régime juridique et ne voulaient aucune bouleversements de leurs habitudes millénaires. Mais, dans la perspective de développer l'agriculture et l'industrie dans la nouvelle possession française, il importait d'introduire dans l'arsenal juridique de la colonie le principe de domanialité des biens. Pour ce faire, l'administrationdevait jouer toute sa partition. En conséquence, elle devait avoir les moyens de sa politique par la constitution, en premier lieu, d'un domaine public et privé. Cette constitution de domaine passait forcément par des spoliations de biens appartenant aux collectivités autochtones. A l'accession du pays à l'indépendance, la problématique est restée entière. Les textes coloniaux ont continué à régir le domaine jusqu'à l'adoption d'un code domanial et foncier en 1986. Les droits coutumiers désormais reconnus et magnifiés à la faveur de la valorisation des traditions séculaires contestent la primauté du droit écrit. Ce dernier reconnaît, qu'avant son avènement, les rapports juridiques et économiques entre individus et groupements d'individus étaient bien organisés. C'est d'ailleurs pourquoi le colonisateur n'a pas entendu faire table rase des coutumes précoloniales encore moins les nouvelles autorités. Pour autant, des problèmes de constitution et de gestion ont persisté. De nos jours encore, de nombreuses difficultés demeurent par rapport à la gestion du domaine qu'il soit public ou privé, qu'il appartienne à l'Etat ou aux collectivités territoriales. / The state ownership of assets of public administration to the test traditional land tenure raises the question of the legal situation of the area in Mali. This is to give the photograph the property of the government and their evolution in relation to customary land tenure. This study course with a historical overview of state assets and local authorities. We will discuss together the legal status of goods in the traditional sense of the term. The tropics adressed include the study of the property during the precolonial, colonial and postcolonial. Before colonization, the area as known today did not exist and the mode of holding property was collective. They spoke not domain but rather of collective awnership. Also, these are not laws that established the traditional tenure bur rather quasi-religious principles. The goods, which are now the domain of state and local government, belonged not to men but to the gods. They were owned by the community and were managed either by the land chief or dji tigui (owner of the water). Thes were the custodians of a part of God's sovereignty and at the same time delegates from higher powers. More than they possessed them, earth and water were the owners of the land chief and dji tigui. Their bonds were dictated by the ancestral beliefs certainly diminished bye time and biased interpretations. Thes goods were not in the lega trade, they were inalienable. Individualownership was true, but it was not widespresd. It did not concern either the land or waterways. This individual property within the meaning of the french Civil Code could only relate to certain personal property except those who were truly essential property of indigenous community. At the start of colonization, the colonial state decided, not without opposition, to implement the experimenced en South Australia by the English to know the Torrens Act. Indeed, the natives had their own legal system and did not want any disruption in their habits millennia. But, in view of developing agriculture and industry in the french possession, it was important to introduce into the legal arsenal of the colony the principle of state ownership of property. To do this, government should play itd full score. Consequently, it must be adequate means of its policy by establisheing, first, a public and private domain.This domain constitution necessarily spent by the spoliations of property belonging to indigenous communities. At the country attained independence, the problem remained large. The colonial tested continued to govern the field until the adoption of a code Land Law in 1986. Customary rignts recognized and magnified now thanks to the recovery of ancient traditions challenge the rule of written law. The latter recognizes that before his accession, economic and legal relationships between individuals and groups of individuals were well organized. This is why the colonizers did not intend to make a clean sweep of pre-colonial customs let alone the new authorithies. However, problems of formation and management persisted. Even today, many challenges remain in relation to the management domain whether public or private, whether owned by the state or local authorithies.

The main objective of the research, over all based on Pierre Bourdieu s notions of social position, economical and cultural capital, has related the cultural practices of students who are finishing high school at expensive schools to their intentions of choice of institutions and careers at college. In order to reach this objective, three schools that charged the highest high school fees at the referred municipal district were selected. After contacting the schools, two of them accepted that their students answered the instrument of data collect, a questionnaire elaborated for this specific purpose. The questionnaire had 74 objective and subjective questions and it was answered by 77 students from the two schools in 2008. The analysis of the results quantified the students cultural practices museums visits, physical activities developed by them, foreign language fluency, informatics knowledge, arts courses, musical instruments abilities, international trips and related them to these students intentions of going to college. 75 out of 77 subjects involved on this investigation stated their intentions to go to college. The results about parental formation and occupation, family income, types of investments on the cultural practices cited above mark the possibility of these students being part of privileged social groups not only through an economical point of view. The results also point out the fact that the various practices accomplished by the students are related to a vast series of options towards the intended institutions / Este trabalho apresenta os caminhos e os resultados de uma investigação sobre as escolhas pretendidas por estudantes oriundos de grupos sociais privilegiados do município de Mogi das Cruzes (SP) em relação à educação superior: instituições e carreiras. O objetivo central da pesquisa, baseado, sobretudo nas noções de posição social, capital econômico e capital cultural de Pierre Bourdieu, constituiu-se em relacionar as práticas culturais de concluintes do nível médio de educação de escolas de altas mensalidades às suas intenções a respeito da escolha de instituições e de carreiras na educação superior. Para atingir tal objetivo foram selecionadas as três escolas que cobravam as mais altas mensalidades no nível médio da educação básica no referido município. Após contato com as escolas, duas delas aceitaram que seus estudantes respondessem ao instrumento de coleta de informações: um questionário elaborado para este fim específico. O questionário continha 74 questões entre objetivas e discursivas e foi respondido por 77 estudantes das duas escolas no ano de 2008. A análise dos resultados consistiu em quantificar as práticas culturais dos estudantes - conhecimento de museus, realização de atividades físicas, fluência em língua estrangeira, domínio de informática, cursos de arte, habilidades com instrumento musical, viagem internacional - e relacioná-las às intenções dos mesmos sobre a educação superior. Entre os 77 sujeitos envolvidos nesta investigação, 75 afirmaram ter intenção de cursar o nível superior. Os resultados encontrados sobre nível de formação e ocupação dos pais, renda familiar, tipos de investimentos nas práticas culturais citadas anteriormente sinalizam para a possibilidade de tais estudantes pertencerem a grupos sociais privilegiados não apenas economicamente. Os resultados apontam também o fato de que a diversidade de práticas culturais realizadas pelos estudantes se relaciona a uma maior amplitude de opções quanto às instituições pretendidas

Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / Os diários de escrita íntima constituem tipo de texto do domínio confessional. Apresentam narrativas pessoais com características específicas ao gênero, como datação, marcas de subjetividade, escrita informal e coloquialidade. Durante muitos anos, eram escritos em cadernos e guardados a sete chaves por seus autores para que não fossem lidos por outras pessoas. Por volta dos anos 80, surgiram as agendas de adolescentes. Aproveitando o modelo pré-definido industrialmente, as agendas eram preenchidas dia a dia, como um diário, mas com a novidade do acréscimo de elementos semióticos, como fotos, papéis de bala, recortes de revistas, entre outros. Além disso, traziam como diferencial a presença de um leitor participativo: os textos eram compartilhados com amigos, e bilhetes e comentários eram escritos nas páginas das agendas. Com o advento da Internet, o diário e a agenda se fundem no blog que aproveita os recursos do suporte virtual para tornar o gênero interativo, hipertextual e multimídia, acentuando o processo de leitura e de escrita nos jovens produtores de blogs. Paralelamente, a escrita se torna grande ferramenta de comunicação no ambiente virtual, adquirindo características peculiares em função da rapidez na comunicação e da economia de digitação. A partir da teoria de Bakthin sobre gêneros do discurso e do conceito de gêneros digitais de Marcuschi, a pesquisa apresenta como objeto perceber e elencar categorias pertinentes aos gêneros diário e blog para analisá-las e compará-las, na intenção de mapear um possível percurso dos diários aos blogs de adolescentes, discutindo o contraste público-privado na escrita íntima, bem como suas principais marcas linguísticas, percebendo vantagens e desvantagens de sua utilização como ferramenta auxiliar no processo de aprendizagem da escrita e da leitura de Língua Portuguesa. A pesquisa foi motivada pela discussão de que a escrita digital pode prejudicar o desenvolvimento da produção textual de jovens em formação, o que não se confirmou, visto que a estrutura sintática da língua se mantém, e que a variação acontece apenas no nível vocabular, não interferindo na comunicação. Os resultados apontam para a utilização de blogs na educação como complementação do material pedagógico e como incentivo à leitura, à escrita, à construção da argumentação e do posicionamento crítico, aproximando a escola da vida cotidiana dos estudantes / Intimate writing diaries represent a text of a confessional nature. They show personal narratives with specific characteristics of the genre, with dates, subjective marks, informal writing and colloquialism. For years they were written in notebooks and locked up and hidden by the authors so no one else would read them. Around the 80s, the adolescent planners came out. Using an industrially predefined model, the planners were filled out every day as a diary, but included new semiotic elements, such as photos, candy wraps, magazine clips, among others. They also differed in the presence of a participative reader: the texts were shared with friends, and notes and comments were written in the planner pages. With the arrival of the Internet, the diary and planner merged into the blog, which uses virtual resources to become an interactive, hypertext, and multimedia genre, emphasizing the reading and writing process for young blog producers. At the same time, writing is the major communication tool in the virtual environment, acquiring peculiar characteristics due to a faster communication and less typing. According to Bakthins theory on the discourse genres and Marcuschis digital genre concept, the purpose of this study is to perceive and bring out categories inherent to the diary and blog genres to analyze and compare them with the purpose of mapping a potential route for planners and blogs of teenagers, discussing the public-private contrast in intimate writing as well as their main linguistic features, noticing the advantages and disadvantages of their use as an auxiliary tool in the learning process of writing and reading in the Portuguese language. The study was motivated by the debate that digital writing can harm the development of text production of young adults, which was not observed, since the syntax structure is maintained and the variation occurs in the vocabulary, which doesnt interfere with communication. The results point at the use of blogs in education as a supplement to the learning material and as an incentive to reading, writing, building critical argumentation and standpoint, bringing the students closer to the daily school of life

L’étude des différentes représentations des femmes, qu’elles interviennent à un niveau social, corporel ou encore linguistique, amène, dans le contexte littéraire, à interroger le concept d’identité. Ce « mot-valise », au sens de Jean Petitot-Cocorda, appartient au patriarcat, ce qui signifie que la notion d’identité elle-même a été pensée, élaborée par les hommes pour les hommes, que le mot même d’’identité appartient à l’univers sémantique masculin. Lorsque nous cherchons à définir l’identité féminine, nous sommes pris au piège de la langue élaborée par le patriarcat, car la notion d’identité fonctionne pour le Masculin, et ne peut donc pas, dans une approche qui revendique l’autonomie, être signifiante pour les femmes puisqu’elle n’a pas été pensée pour elles. Il y a une forme d’impasse à rechercher une identité stable et universalisable des femmes. Le présent travail de thèse se propose d’explorer les différents prismes sous lesquels des auteures francophones mettent en tension le Féminin afin de repenser le concept même d’identité depuis les années 1950, i.e. après la publication du Deuxième sexe (1949) de Simone de Beauvoir, qui marque la genèse des études anti-essentialistes. Dans le panorama de la terminologie critique utilisée dans les études du genre, les Gender studies, c’est la Littérature de femmes qui nous intéresse : elle consiste en la revendication d’identités des femmes qui leur soit propre, selon une perspective féministe différentialiste. Les auteures relevant de cette catégorie tendent à analyser une transcription du Féminin dans le texte, à l’y incarner, par le biais d’une esthétique spécifique. Ainsi, l’identité féminine littéraire consiste en une polysémie, une pluralité, préparant une identité « ouverte », inscrite « activement » dans les textes par les auteures (les thématiques traitées, les structures narratives...). Elle s'y inscrit aussi « passivement », par exemple par l’usage féminin de la langue, la présence du corps de l'auteure dans le texte. Il s’agit de déplacer les perspectives féministes pour en arriver à une circonscription féminine plus globale dans laquelle texte et auteure seraient indissociables. Les auteures étudiées, Corinna S. Bille, Nina Bouraoui, Assia Djebar, Jacqueline Harpman, Anne Hébert, Alice Rivaz, Gabrielle Roy et Marguerite Yourcenar, tendent à développer une véritable esthétique littéraire qui se place en faux par rapport à la logique sociale totalisante. Dans cette perspective, les femmes ne sont pas ramenées, réduites, à leur essence, c’est-à-dire à leur sexe biologique. Le Féminin, tel que l’envisagent nos auteures, est le produit d’une réflexion, d’une exploration du Moi, qui va des problématiques sociétales traditionnelles, représentées sous l’angle des thématiques abordées, à l’investissement d’une langue d’expression innovante et dépassant les clivages classiques autour du binôme « Masculin / Féminin ».Il ne s’agit plus, pour lors, de s’approprier la « langue de l’autre », mais bien de trouver la sienne propre. Nous sommes loin de l’archétype patriarcal qui bâtit et préétablit à l’existence et à l’écriture, les identités figées et prescrites des femmes. Comme nous le verrons, ces identités ne s’inscrivent plus dans une invariance de l’objet « femmes », mais les fondent souverainement dans leurs œuvres et par leurs écritures. Elles participent ainsi activement à une nouvelle définition de leur genre. Le déficit identitaire se comble par le recours aux caractéristiques féminines (oralité, nature, sexualité, etc.) différentes pour accéder à un tout définitoire ; dans ce corpus, il ne s’agit plus d’écrire comme ou contre les hommes, mais de s’émanciper de la langue patriarcale en incorporant les éléments textuels et linguistiques qui participent à la construction d’identités féminines composites. / The study of different representations, whether at a social, body or linguistic level, leads us to question the very concept of identity in literature. That “portmanteau word” – “mot-valise” in the meaning set out by Jean Petitot-Cocorda – belongs to Patriarchy, which means that the notion of identity itself has been (culturally) constructed by men for men, and the very word identity belongs to the semantic and existentialist masculine world. When we try to define feminine/female identity, we are trapped by the language constructed by patriarchal culture: the notion of identity is relevant for the Masculine and cannot be autonomously applied to women, since it has not been thought out for them in the first place. Therefore we reach a deadlock, as it were, when seeking a fixed, universal identity of women. This thesis will explore the different prisms through which French-speaking female writers put women’s identities into words and set them into tension so as to rethink the very concept of identity. Such process started in the 1950s with the publication of Le Deuxième sexe (1949) by Simone de Beauvoir, which marked the beginning of anti-essentialist studies.In the panorama of the terminology used in Gender studies, our attention will focus on Women’s literature, which implies claiming the existence of specific women’s identities from a differentialist feminist viewpoint. Female writers belonging to that category tend to analyze how the Feminine is conveyed into words in the text, to embody it, through a peculiar aesthetic. Thus woman’s identity in literature is based on polysemy and plurality, leading to an “open” identity, inscribed “actively” in the text by women writers (themes, narrative structures, etc.) and “passively” (for example, through a feminine use of language, the presence of the female writer’s body in the text, etc.). We have to shift feminist perspectives in order to achieve a more comprehensive feminine definition, in which text and writer are indissociable.The female authors included in our corpus (Corinna S. Bille, Nina Bouraoui, Assia Djebar, Jacqueline Harpman, Anne Hébert, Alice Rivaz, Gabrielle Roy and Marguerite Yourcenar) strive to develop a real literary aesthetic which is at odds with a rule-complying social model. From that viewpoint, women are not reduced to their essence, that is to their biological sex. The Feminine, as it is considered by our authors, is the result of a process of reflection and self-exploration, involving traditional societal issues (as figured in the themes dealt with), as well as an innovative literary language, capable of going beyond the classical dichotomy between masculine and feminine.Therefore, the aim is no longer to take possession of the “language of the other”, but to find one’s own. Therefore, we are distant from the patriarchal archetype constructing, and pre-establishing, fixed identities for women’s existence and writing. As we will see, such identities are no longer inscribed in the tradition of the objects “women”: they try to forge a new object in their writing, and in so doing they end up redefining their genre. In order to make up for the lack of “identity landmarks”, they resort to specific feminine features (oral language, nature, sexuality, etc.) so as to reach a definition of a Whole. The aim is no longer to write like men or against men, but to write women out of the patriarchal language by introducing in their texts those feminine elements capable of building a multifaceted feminine identity.

“Between the Spheres: Male Characters and the Performance of Femininity in Four Victorian Novels, 1849-1886” définit le célibataire domestique, analyse les effets de l’érosion des frontières entre les domaines public et privé et retrace l’évolution du discours public au sujet de la masculinité dans quatre œuvres: Shirley écrit par Charlotte Brontë, Lady Audley’s Secret de Mary Elizabeth Braddon, Daniel Deronda par George Eliot, et The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde de Robert Louis Stevenson. En identifiant le célibataire domestique comme personnage récurrent à la dernière moitié du dixneuvième siècle, cette dissertation démontre comment ce personnage arrive à représenter l’incertitude face aux questions de sexualité, non seulement dans des rôles féminins mais aussi dans les positions de l’homme dans la société et la remise en question du concept de la masculinité. Tout comme il y eu de femmes à l’affût de la liberté au-delà du domaine privé, des hommes aussi cherchèrent leur liberté au sein du domaine domestique par des performances féminines. Le célibataire domestique rapporte sur le concept New Woman de cette période par sa tendance de promouvoir de nouvelles définitions de la masculinité victorienne et les limites entre sexes. Le célibataire domestique passe du domaine public, plutôt masculin, vers le domaine privé, plutôt féminin en participitant dans le discours féminin, tel que les sujets de le domesticité, la chastité, la moralité, le mariage, et l’amour. En s’inspirant de l’analyse des domaines public et privé par Jürgen Habermas, cette dissertation revoit les rôles de ces domaines et leur élasticité dans les quatre œuvres en question ainsi que le sort des célibataires domestiques. L’assignation de sexe à ces domaines mena à la recherche de nouveaux formes de masculinité, produisant une définition de mâle liée au statut de la femme dans le domaine privé. Le célibataire domestique se déplace facilement entre ces domaines sans souffrir d’accusations de tendances effeminées ou d’aliénation sociale, à l’encontre des conséquences qu’ont souffert les personnages femelles pour leur comportement inhabituel. Chaque chapitre de cette dissertation considère les changements dans le discours de la sexualité afin de suivre la migration du célibataire domestique du domaine féminin au milieu du dixneuvième siècle jusqu’un nouveau domaine à la fin de siècle qui estompe la distinction rigide crue être en place tout au long de la période victorienne. / “Between the Spheres: Male Characters and the Performance of Femininity in Four Victorian Novels, 1849-1886” defines the domesticated bachelor, examines the effects of the blurring of the boundaries between the public and private spheres, and traces the evolution of the public discourse on masculinity in Charlotte Brontë’s Shirley, Mary Elizabeth Braddon’s Lady Audley’s Secret, George Eliot’s Daniel Deronda, and Robert Louis Stevenson’s The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. By identifying the domestic man as a recurrent figure in the second half of the nineteenth century, this dissertation proves how he comes to represent the uncertainty surrounding issues of gender, not only concerning women’s roles, but also men’s positions in society and the re-defining of masculinity. Just as there were women seeking freedom by moving beyond the domestic sphere, there were men seeking a similar liberty by moving from the public into the private sphere by performing femininity. This bachelor is equally significant to the New Woman of this period based on his tendency to open up for discussion new definitions of Victorian masculinity and gender boundaries. The domesticated man moves from the “masculinized” public sphere into the “feminized” private sphere, by engaging in feminine discourse including issues of domesticity, chastity, morality, marriage, and love. Drawing upon Jürgen Habermas’s analysis of public and private spheres, this dissertation re-examines the roles of the spheres, their fluidity in the four works under consideration, and the fate of the domesticated male characters. The gendering of the spheres resulted in the search for new forms of masculinity; this new definition of maleness was extremely dependent on the status of women in the private sphere. The bachelor moves between the spheres without necessarily suffering consequences such as effeminacy and social estrangement, as opposed to “masculine” female characters that did suffer from social stigma resulting from their uncharacteristic behavior. Each chapter considers changes in the discourse of sexuality to account for a re-positioning of the domesticated man from a feminine sphere of activity into a new sphere which, by the end of the century, blurs the rigid distinction thought to be in place throughout the Victorian period.

Occupational Therapy is amongst the top three interventions sought for young children with ASD in South Africa. Due to scarce local research on OT for ASD, this study explored the nature as well as perceptions of OTs on intervention for ASD. Using a qualitative exploratory study design, semi-structured interviews were conducted with twenty OTs in public and private health, as well as special needs education. Thematic analysis was used to analyse transcribed data. OTs descriptions and perceptions of assessment, direct and indirect intervention as well as challenges facing families and undergraduate and qualified OTs in South Africa were explored. Assessment for ASD utilised play based skilled observations with limited use of standardised tests. Developmental approaches were preferred to behavioural ones, with the majority of OTs referencing the Sensory Integration (SI) framework for assessment and therapy, even if they were not SI certified practitioners. The value of SI in reframing a child’s behaviour for parents was significant. The South African Model of Creative Ability was a unique local application to practice for ASD. Intervention in education was most ASD specific, including AAC and visual approaches due to a comprehensive programme and greater levels of team collaboration. A family focussed practice was most evident in private and public health. Direct individual therapy was predominant, with all sectors struggling to provide the intensity of therapy recommended for ASD, due to unique contextual challenges.

獼猴桃源出於中國，卻成就於紐西蘭，並有了「奇異果」此一新名稱。而且，來自中國大陸的奇異果，價格比其本土的獼猴桃高出數倍，兩者於口感、外型等其他方面，亦存在明顯差距；如何使中國獼猴桃轉變為奇異果，是本論文的研究重心。在此目標下，本論文分為「紐西蘭奇異果」與「中國大陸獼猴桃」兩部分，以文獻閱讀、資料搜尋、田野調查、專家訪談等方式，先從紐西蘭出發，研究促成奇異果產業形成的關鍵因素，再將此關鍵因素提供中國大陸獼猴桃發展參考，最後得出結論與建議。本論文發現，在形塑產業的過程中，「政府」在法律保障、制度規劃、外部產業環境的營造上，扮演著重要角色，因此本論文之立場選擇，係以「中國大陸獼猴桃盛產區政府」之角度，借鏡紐西蘭的發展經驗，在政策規劃的思維下，為獼猴桃尋找建設性的出路，並以此作為結論與建議。 紐西蘭提供的經驗，包括制訂專法規範奇異果產業、立法保護單一出口機制、建立誘因機制、打造產業群聚、以資料庫進行科學化管理、重視品種研究，以及政府為扶植紐西蘭奇異果產業所做的其他措施。而中國大陸獼猴桃產業尚處於發展初階，加上各地方獼猴桃的適生度不同，經營集中度低，資源難以匯聚，使獼猴桃一直無法有效商品化。但由於獼猴桃栽種面積與產量皆為世界第一，近年來更開發出多元食用與藥用等用途，再加上中國大陸法制建設逐步完善，投資風險降低，若以紐西蘭奇異果產業的經驗為借鏡，調整措施並加強整合，獼猴桃發展前景仍值得期待。 有鑑於此，本研究以「公私協力八卦模型」作為結論，並建議中國大陸首先應擇定試點集中經營之區域，以便日後將商品化經驗複製於其他省份。在試點經營措施上，本論文建議以平台為依托進行整合；針對獼猴桃制訂相關法規，促使能夠引領產業整體發展的龍頭集團形成；建立誘因機制，讓龍頭集團的經營利潤回饋果農；並在品種培育、收購標準、資料庫管理等方式下，逐步形成標準化生產，再加上獼猴桃基金的保險機制，讓中國大陸獼猴桃逐步從產業化邁向商品化。 / Mihoutao originated from China but thrived in New Zealand under the name of “kiwifruit”; however, the price of kiwifruit is vastly higher than that of Mihoutao, and their taste and shape are of evident differences. As such, this thesis seeks to answer the question of “how to turn mihoutao into kiwifruit” by looking into the management and operation of New Zealand kiwifruit industry and providing lessons from such experience to the commercialization of China mihoutao. This thesis adopts methodologies of material reading, data collecting, field works, and expert interviewing to reach the final conclusions and suggestions, and it is discovered that the government plays a key role in the process of agriculture industrialization. Therefore, the proposed suggestions are for “the government of China mihoutao province” to echo with my topic. This thesis concludes with “Eight-trigram Model” to express the partnership with public and private sectors. Furthermore, it suggests China to construct the mihoutao commercialization mechanism on the regional basis as an experiment, which can be later duplicated in other provinces. More specifically about the measures, referring to New Zealand kiwifruit industry’s policies, mihoutao regulations, leading corporation, incentives, plant cultivation, scientific management via database, mihoutao fund are recommended. With all these policies in order, it is believed that a more institutionalized and commercialized mihoutao industry will be gradually shaped, and the Chinese “mihoutao” will also be commercialized as “kiwifruit” eventually.
