(Re)construire dans la division. Aspects de la vie juive à Berlin entre Est et Ouest (1945-1990) / (Re)construction in Division – The Jews in Berlin between East and West (1945-1990)

Duchaine-Guillon, Laurence 30 November 2009 (has links)
Pour les Juifs rescapés de la Shoah, établir une vie nouvelle sur le territoire allemand après 1945 était quasiment impensable. En particulier à Berlin, l’ancienne capitale du IIIe Reich, devenue le point de cristallisation des relations Est-Ouest, l’entreprise paraissait improbable, à tel point que la conception de la communauté de « liquidation » a dominé jusque dans les années 1950. Et pourtant, la [re]construction s’est opérée malgré tout, sous les auspices de la division allemande, qui n’a pas épargné la Communauté Juive de Berlin. L’analyse comparative des Juifs à Berlin-Est et à Berlin-Ouest, sur les plans démographique, religieux, politique et culturel, révèle certes de fortes disparités, liées plus ou moins directement aux caractéristiques des régimes de la RFA et de la RDA ; mais au-delà de ces clivages indéniables, il est possible de mettre en lumière un certain nombre de valeurs et de préoccupations communes aux Juifs dans les deux Berlin, ainsi que des phénomènes de passage jusqu’alors peu étudiés. / For the Jews who had survived the Shoah, to establish of a new life on the German territory after 1945 was almost unthinkable. Particularly in Berlin, the former capital of the third Reich, which became the nodal point of the East-West relations, the attempt seemed most unlikely. As a result, the conception of a community of “liquidation” dominated until the 1950’s. Yet, [re]construction took place, in spite of everything, in the context of the partition of Germany, which didn’t spare the Jewish Community of Berlin. The comparative analysis of the Jews in East- and West-Berlin at the demographic, religious, political and cultural levels does reveal strong disparities, which are more or less linked with the features of the East-German and West-German systems; but beyond these undeniable divides, it is possible to bring to light common values and concerns, as well as forms of crossing which have attracted little scholarly attention so far.

The future of radiofrequency ablation is looking BETA : short and long term studies of bimodal electric tissue ablation (BETA) in a porcine model.

Dobbins, Christopher January 2008 (has links)
Introduction: Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a popular method of treating unresectable liver tumours by the use of a high frequency, alternating electrical current that heats and destroys tumour cells. The size of the ablation is limited by localised charring of adjacent tissue that prevents further conduction of the radiofrequency current. In the clinical setting, this results in increased rates of local recurrence in tumours that are greater than 3 cm in diameter as multiple, overlapping ablations need to be performed to treat the one tumour. To overcome this problem, a modified form of RFA called Bimodal Electric Tissue Ablation (BETA) has been created. BETA adds a direct electrical current to the alternating radiofrequency current, thus establishing its bimodal character. When direct currents are used in biological tissues, water is transferred from anode to cathode by a process called electro-osmosis. By attaching the cathode to the radiofrequency electrode, water is attracted to the area thus preventing tissue desiccation and charring. The BETA circuit has been constructed and tested using a porcine model. The aims of the studies are to confirm that larger ablations can be produced with the BETA system and that it is safe to use in an animal model. Three studies have been performed to test these aims in porcine liver. Methods: The first study was designed to compare sizes of the ablation produced between standard RFA and the BETA circuit. This was followed by a long-term study to assess associated changes to liver function and pathological changes within the liver as well as identifying any other treatment related morbidity. The third study assessed the difference in ablation size and safety aspects when the positive electrode of the direct current circuitry was moved from small surface area under the skin to a large surface area on the skin. Results: Ablations with significantly larger diameters are created with the BETA circuit using a multi-tine needle (49.55 mm versus 27.78 mm, p<0.001). This finding was confirmed in the third experiment using a straight needle (25 mm versus 15.33 mm, p<0.001). Ablations produced by the BETA circuit induce coagulative necrosis within the treated liver and the injury heals by fibrosis in a manner similar to other thermal therapies. Significant rises in some serum liver enzymes are seen within 24 hours of treatment but these return to normal within 4 days. An electrolytic type injury can be produced at the site of the positive electrode. By increasing the surface area of this electrode, the risk of tissue damage is decreased but ablations are significantly smaller (18 mm versus 25 mm, p<0.001). Conclusions: The BETA circuit consistently produces significantly larger ablations than RFA. The treatment appears safe but positioning of the positive electrode of the direct current requires careful consideration. Injuries produced behave like other thermal therapies with coagulative necrosis followed by fibrotic healing. As larger ablations are consistently produced, it is hypothesised that with further refinements, tumours greater than 3 cm in diameter could be treated with lower rates of recurrence. / Thesis (M.S.) -- University of Adelaide, School of Medicine, 2008

Le renouveau de l’enseignement artistique en Allemagne après la Seconde Guerre mondiale / The renewal of art education in Germany after World War II / Die Erneuerung der Kuenstlerausbildung nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg

Fariat, Axelle 28 October 2013 (has links)
Un ensemble territorial qui a perdu son statut d’État, divisé en quatre zones d’occupation : telle est l’Allemagne d’après 1945. La reconstitution d’un enseignement artistique rentre dans le cadre d’un renouveau général. On peut s’interroger sur son importance dans un contexte éthique, historique et idéologique très difficile. Mais il apparaît qu’il a amené un exceptionnel foisonnement culturel et artistique avec la réouverture de nombreuses institutions supérieures d’art. Certains artistes qui avaient perdu leur droit d’exercer sous le Troisième Reich, acceptent de venir y enseigner. La présente étude s’attache à ceux d’entre-eux qui ont les conceptions pédagogiques et les méthodes les plus innovantes dans onze institutions réparties dans les quatre zones puis en RFA et en RDA. Pour cela, la consultation des archives ainsi qu’une abondante bibliographie ont été complétées par des entretiens avec d’anciens étudiants devenus enseignants et/ou artistes. Ces derniers ont témoigné de l’importance de la relation maître-élève dans la transmission mais également du rôle déterminant de la liberté artistique dont ils ont bénéficié. Ainsi la majorité des artistes allemands, ayant une renommée internationale aujourd’hui, ont étudié dans une ou plusieurs Écoles supérieures d’art ou Académie d’art de la zone orientale ou occidentale d’occupation après 1945. Cette formation constitue un atout essentiel de leur réussite. / Germany after 1945 was a territorial unity that had lost its status as a State and which was divided into four zones of occupation. The program of reform of art education is part of the widespread political and cultural renewal that took place during the subsequent post-War years. The importance of these reforms is a question to consider, with respect to the difficult ethical, historical and ideological context that shaped them. To all appearances, the reopening of many artistic institutions gave birth to an exceptional period of cultural and artistic activity. Indeed, some artists who had lost their right to practice under the Third Reich agreed to come back and teach art at these newly reopened institutions. The present study will focus on those artist-educators who developed the most innovative pedagogical concepts and methods, for example Willi Baumeister (Art Academy in Stuttgart), Karl Otto Götz (Art Academy in Düsseldorf) and Georg Meistermann (Art Academy in Karlsruhe). In total, the group I wish to investigate taught in eleven higher education institutions across all the four occupation zones; their work continued later, in the post-War states, FRG and GDR. My research methodology includes bibliographic research, archival research, and interviews with former students, many of whom have become artist-educators themselves. My correspondents were the benefactors of an extraordinary kind of teacher-student relationship that stressed an attitude of freedom that contrasted strongly with the previous historical period of the mid-1930s to 1945. The vast majority of German artists who now have an international reputation — including Georg Baselitz, Otto Piene, Gerhard Richter, Günter Uecker — studied in one or several higher art schools or art academies in the occupied zones (East or West) after 1945. / Die Etablierung einer institutionellen künstlerischen Ausbildung ist Teil des deutschen Wiederaufbaus nach dem Ende des Zweiten Weltkrieges. Die Promotion zeigt diese Entwicklung auf, in der Arbeit untersucht wird die Bedeutung der künstlerischen Ausbildung in ihrem unterschiedlichen ethischen, historischen und ideologischen Kontext. Hinsichtlich der Untersuchung zur Künstlerausbildung in Deutschland nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg muss die Aufteilung Deutschlands in zunächst vier Besatzungszonen und nach 1945 die Teilung Deutschlands in die Bundesrepublik und die Deutsche Demokratische Republik berücksichtigt werden. Viele der während des Dritten Reiches verfolgten und ins Exil geflüchteten Künstler und Kunstpädagogen, kehrten nach Kriegsende nach Deutschland zurück und erhielten einen Lehrauftrag an einer Kunsthochschule oder –akademie. Die vorliegende Arbeit untersucht innovative pädagogische Konzepte an elf ausgewählten Institutionen. Die Untersuchung basiert auf einer intensiven Literaturrecherche und stützt sich auf Interviews mit ehemaligen Kunststudenten, die später Künstler und/ oder Dozenten werden. Die Interviews zeigen, wie wichtig die Kommunikation zwischen Schüler und Lehrer war und welche Rolle die Idee der künstlerischen Freiheit in ihrer persönlichen Entwicklung gespielt hat. Nach 1945 wurden viele deutsche Künstler, die heute einen international annerkten Ruf genießen, an einer oder mehreren deutschen Kunsthochschulen bzw. Kunstakademien in der östlichen oder westlichen Besatzungszone ausgebildet: Georg Baselitz, Otto Piene, Gerhard Richter, Günter Uecker. Die Ausbildung hat einen wesentlichen Vorteil an ihrem Erfolg.

Stéréotypes, représentations et identités en R.D.A. et en R.F.A. : une comparaison transnationale des discours journalistiques de Der Spiegel et de la Neue Berliner Illustrierte entre 1949 et 1989 / Stereotypes, representations and identify in West-Germany and Est-Germany : a transnational study of the journalistic speech in Der Spiegel und Neue Berliner Illustrierte between 1949 and 1989

Richter, Tina Julia 10 October 2014 (has links)
D’où vient « le mur dans les têtes » des Allemands en 1989 ? Que signifient les stéréotypes Besserwessi / Jammerossi ? Quelles sont les représentations et les identités en R.D.A. et en R.F.A. ? Existe-t-il deux identités allemandes différentes ? Avec un corpus de 312 exemplaires de Der Spiegel et de la Neue Berliner Illustrierte, cette thèse étudie la dimension sémantique des stéréotypes, elle analyse les représentations en R.F.A. et en R.D.A. et définit une double identité allemande. L’année 1989 provoque une crise identitaire et langagière que nous étudions à l’aide de sondages, d’ouvrages, de caricatures et de journaux. La guerre froide, la manipulation du discours et un contexte économique déstabilisant font naître dès 1949 des stéréotypes qui s’intensifient en 1961 et s’accumulent en 1989. Ils se transforment du stéréotype de la revendication de représenter l’Allemagne dans son ensemble (1949) en celui de la grande famille socialiste (R.D.A.) et de la grande famille américaine (R.F.A.) en 1961 et en celui de la pérennité étatique (R.D.A.) et de la terra incognita (R.F.A.) en 1989. Les stéréotypes se diffusent avec des images et un vocabulaire de la consommation et de l’individualisme en R.F.A. et de la solidarité en R.D.A. L’identité est-allemande est une identité collective, solidaire et uniforme et l’identité ouest-allemande est une identité de plaisir, de liberté, d’esprit de compétitivité et d’individualisme. Avec une perspective de recherche pluridisciplinaire, comparative et transnationale, ce travail s’insère dans les champs des recherches historiques et linguistiques et s’appuie sur l’histoire comparée, l’analyse du discours et de l’image. L’enjeu identitaire est relié aux stéréotypes et aux représentations qui sont les faces visibles des stéréotypes. Cette thèse étudie aussi les lieux de mémoire textuels, culinaires, culturels, politiques et économiques est-allemands et ouest-allemands en se basant sur les travaux de Walter Lippmann, Ruth Amossy, Pierre Nora, Etienne François, Hagen Schulze, Pierre Moscovici, Christian Delporte, Dominique Maingueneau, Laurent Gervereau, Heinz Gerhard Haupt, Henri Ménudier, Sandrine Kott, Alain Lattard. C’est ce qui nous permet d’analyser les discours d’hommes politiques et de journalistes comme Helmut Kohl, Ludwig Erhard, Konrad Adenauer, Walter Ulbricht, Rudolf Augstein, Rudolf Hernnstadt et Lilly Becher. / What is the origin of the « wall in the minds » between East-germans and West-germans in 1989 ? What is the significance of the stereotypes Besserwessi / Jammerossi ? Do we have two german identities ? Based on a corpus of 312 exemplars of Der Spiegel and Neue Berliner Illustrierte, this thesis analyses the relationship between GDR and West Germany during the cold war. It presents the social representations and defines a double german identity. In 1989, we have a crisis in german language and identity illustrated by soundings, literature, caricatures and stereotypes. Cold war, political speech and destabilizing aspects of 1989 push up stereotypes since 1949. In 1961 they grow up and in 1989 they are on the top. They transform themselves from the stereotype of sole and exclusive representation (1949) to the stereotype of the big socialiste family (GDR) and the big west family (West Germany) in 1961 and to the stereotype of endurance (GDR) and terra incognita (West Germany) in 1989. Stereotypes circulate by language, various leitmotiv and a vocabulary of consumption and egoism in West Germany and solidarity in GDR. They are the sign of a temporarily double german identity. Absence of the same identity and language markers bring up gap between Ossis and Wessis. With a interdisciplinary and comparative approach, this thesis takes place in historic and language studies. The innovation is to connect the question of german identity with stereotypes and representations by defining representations as visible faces of stereotypes. This work studies german history, est-german and west-german memory in the second half of the 20th century with the autors and journalistes Walter Lippmann, Ruth Amossy, Pierre Nora, Etienne François, Hagen Schulze, Pierre Moscovici, Christian Delporte, Dominique Maingueneau, Laurent Gervereau, Heinz-Gerhard Haupt, Henri Ménudier, Sandrine Kott, Alain Lattard and Helmut Kohl, Ludwig Erhard, Konrad Adenauer, Walter Ulbricht, Rudolf Augstein, Rudolf Hernnstadt and Lilly Becher.

L'offre de football télévisé et sa réception par la presse en France et en RFA (1950-1966) : l'édification du "Grand stade", vecteur d'identité nationale et européenne / Television football programs and their reception by the press in France and Germany (1950-1966) : the edification of the “Great stadium” as a conveyor of national and European identity

Meyer, Jean-Christophe 03 December 2012 (has links)
Abordant une période de 16 ans, notre étude comparative se propose de mettre en évidence un aspect particulier de l’histoire de la médiatisation du sport en France et en Allemagne : l’évolution de l’offre de football télévisé et sa réception par la presse durant la première phase d’édification du « Grand stade ». De manière primordiale, nous avons exploré dans quelle mesure cette offre a pu jouer un rôle de vecteur d’identité nationale et européenne. L’approche comparative entre France et RFA invitait à analyser principes et forces à l’œuvre dans la gouvernance nationale et internationale du football et de la télévision. La presse sportive et celle spécialisée dans l’annonce des programmes télévisés, concernées de façon essentielle par le phénomène, ont retenu notre attention de manière prioritaire. L’analyse de l’évolution des rapports entre acteurs institutionnels, celle des contenus proposés et de la ritualisation du spectacle de football télévisé à la lumière d’avis contemporains des événements et publiés dans cette presse dite populaire constitua donc un aspect crucial de notre projet. Ces avis sous-tendaient des théories professionnelles et profanes sur la télédiffusion du football qui, pour certaines, s’inscrivirent dans la durée. D’autres, par contre, furent rapidement invalidées par l’évolution de la technologie, de l’environnement règlementaire et institutionnel ou par l’apparition de nouvelles épreuves comme les compétitions européennes des clubs et des sélections nationales. Le cas échéant, il s’agissait donc de mettre en évidence non seulement l’émergence, mais également la persistance de part et d’autre du Rhin d’une « culture nationale » en la matière. Dans le même esprit, nous avons examiné comment la fondation de UER, celle de l’UEFA et le lancement de ses compétitions aboutirent à la création, puis à l’extension et à l’enracinement d’un « certain » espace culturel européen du football. / Covering a period of 16 years starting back in 1950 our comparative study aims to stress a peculiar aspect of the history of sports media coverage in France and Germany: the evolution of television football programs and their reception by the press during this first phase of edification of the “Great Stadium”. We have primarily explored in what measure these programs played the part of a conveyor for national and European identity. The comparative approach between France and Germany pleaded in favor of analyzing principles and forces involved in the national and international governance of football and television. We first focused on the sports press and the magazines dealing with television programs since they are liable to be essentially concerned by the observed phenomenon. The analysis of the evolution of the relationships involving institutional actors in this sector is a crucial aspect of our study. The study of the supplied programs and of the rites tied with a growing consumption of television football shows is not less important. It provoked the publication of numerous contemporary opinions in the so-called popular press of both countries. These opinions sustained professional or profane theories on football broadcasting that had a lasting pertinence for some of them. Others were soon invalidated by the swift evolution of technology, of the institutional environment and regulations or by the apparition of new competitions like the European Champions’ Cup or the European Nations’ Championship. It was important to stress how a “national culture” emerged and persisted on both sides of the Rhine River during those years as far as football broadcasting is concerned. It was also important to examine how the foundation of EBU, of UEFA and the launching of diverse European competitions led to the creation, to the extension and to the establishment of a “popular” European cultural space tied with football.
