Klappstolen ur ett semiotiskt perspektiv : Ett samarbete med IKEA of Sweden / The folding chair from a semiotic perspective : A collaboration with IKEA of SwedenNyberg, Alissa January 2022 (has links)
I denna uppsats undersöks hur man genom produktdesign kan få enbättre förståelse för hur stolar och klappstolar tolkas. Syftet har varit attgenom en förståelse för användarens tolkning, ge möjlighet att skapa enny arketyp till klappstolar. Studien är ett samarbete med IKEA ofSweden där de har varit intresserade att undersöka möjligheten för en nyarketyp i deras klappstolssortiment. För att få en inblick i användarenstolkning tar studien avstamp i teori kring användarcentrerad design,semiotik och affordance. Metoder för att samla empirisk data består avexpertintervjuer och workshop.

Det omöjliga vittnandet : Om vittnesmålets pedagogiska möjligheter / The Impossibile Witnessing : On the Pedagogical Possibilities of TestimonyHållander, Marie January 2016 (has links)
There is great interest in testimonies, both in society at large and as a theoretical concept. Within educational research testimony is used to understand and develop epistemological, political or ethical thinking. In this thesis I investigate what testimonies and the act of witnessing can do in relation to education. More specifically, I investigate what kind of pedagogical possibilities there are in witnessing and testimony, in relation to teaching as well as outside schools. Focusing on three different aspects (of these phenomena), namely representation, subjectivity and emotion I discuss different examples of testimonies. These are Collateral Murder, The Living History Forum’s book Tell Ye Your Children…, Gruva by Sara Lidman and Odd Uhrbom, and pictures with Alan Kurdi from 2015 taken by Nilüfer Demir. I examine the pedagogical possibilities of testimony and witnessing based on the idea that such possibilities are situated in human imperfection and lack of ability, where the knowledge is placed in the impossibility, in our not-knowing. This dialectical understanding, drawing on Giorgio Agamben, implies a different formulation than previous research, by highlighting the impossibility of witnessing and of testimony, for example by how the testimony does not stand outside the political, and in Western society more specifically, the capitalist system. Through the analyses of the different aspects (representation, subjectivity, emotions) I show how testimonies can serve as a way to control the students' emotions and perceptions (drawing on Sara Ahmed), and influence the perception of the society in which the students live. I have also shown how the act of witnessing can be done at the witness’ own expense (by drawing on The Latina Feminist Group). It can mean that testimonies work as a way to reproduce various stereotypes of different people's suffering and thus consolidate existing power structures and identities. The conditions surrounding witnessing and testimonies make witnessing an act that can be perceived as a poetic testimony, as well as an exploitation or expropriation of already vulnerable people. With this said, I also argue for the value of bringing into teaching testimonies that testify of suffering. Testimonies stand between the past and the future and have important things to speak of. If testimonies are not heard in teaching, there is a possibility of silencing and forgetting the wounds in history. It is in teaching where the repetitive work of a literary reading (Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak) can take place. A literary reading that emphasizes the difficulties in testimonies and one’s own part of and relation to it. It is the effort of the repetitive work in teaching that can lead to pedagogical possibility, and through that, enter the future.

"Muskeljazz... stökigt, snabbt och svårt" : En kvalitativ undersökning av jazzmusikers erfarenheter av jazzkultur utifrån ett feministiskt, fenomenologiskt perspektivÖhman, Marcus January 2019 (has links)
This thesis explores how jazz musicians in Sweden experience jazz culture in terms of hierarchies and structures of power through a feminist phenomenological perspective. Through qualitative interviews with four jazz musicians with experience of attending different music colleges in Sweden, I explore their experiences of jazz culture in general, as well as specific contexts which are common within the culture. Using my theoretical approach, mainly consosting of the theories of Sara Ahmed and Iris Young, I review my informants´ possibilities to orientate themselves toward and within Swedish jazz culture. The informants all have different views of who holds the authority within the jazz culture. The study shows that male representation, masculine patterns of movement and structures of class differences has an impact on the informants possibilities to orientate themselves within the culture.

Knutby - en ny värld : En religionsbeteendevetenskaplig analys av Sara SvenssonJonasson, Viktor, Reidler, William January 2019 (has links)
År 2004 riktades media mot tätorten Knutby i Uppsalas kommun i Sverige. Sara Svensson, en medlem i den lokala religiösa församlingen, hade skjutit två personer. Denna kvalitativa undersökning formades med hermeneutiken som metodansats. Med Peter L. Berger och Thomas Luckmanns kunskapssociologiska teori och med understöd av Hjalmar Sundéns rollteori som teoretiskt perspektiv tolkades och gavs hennes handlingar en förklaring.

"Sam-vett" som naturens vett. En idéhistorisk undersökning av Sara Lidmans JernbanesvitStefansson, Sofie January 2011 (has links)
The object of investigation in this essay is the epic novel sequence Jernbanan written by Sara Lidman. More specifically the investigation takes on the idea of a “sam-vett” as it is formulated in Jernbanan. The “sam-vett” is an idea about the undivided unity of man, nature and animal, and with a kind of primitive trait. By asking the question what traces the history of ideas are to be found in the “sam-vett”, the hope is that it will bring some clarity to the notion and what its message might be. In addition to that a thesis is formulated, that the “sam-vett” can be read as a form of deep ecology. Deep ecology takes on the first rule of ecology, that everything is closely bound together, and extends it to a philosophy. By discussing the notion of the “sam-vett” in the light of two figures in the history of ideas, Jean-Jacques Rousseau and Martin Heidegger, the hope is to unravel its learning. In the end the “sam-vett” can be described as knowledge of nature that is based on a feeling more than the intellect – that begins where the language ends.

A metafísica do sucesso, a espiritualidade do consumo e a ética hedônica configuradas no sistema axiológico neoprotestante da Igreja Evangélica Sara Nossa TerraPires, Anderson Clayton January 2011 (has links)
O cristianismo originário desenvolveu em seus seguidores um estilo de vida condizente às crenças escatológicas relacionadas à morte e à ressurreição de Cristo. Um estilo de vida resignado, asceta e destituído de qualquer interesse intramundana através do qual se justificava a crença de que o fim do mundo era iminente e que cada crente era chamado a viver segundo esta expectativa. Quinze séculos mais tarde, a Reforma protestante introduz, a partir do conceito de Berut, uma nova concepção de interação do crente com o mundo. A vocação passa a ser compreendida como atividades capitalistas, exercidas com base racional, exercidas como cumprimento da tarefa conforme a vontade de Deus. Sob esta perspectiva está fundada a ética protestante calvinista. A relação do crente calvinista com o mundo ganha um novo significado. A angústia pela confirmação de um indício da salvação leva o crente a desenvolver uma ética sustentada por duas virtudes: espírito de laboriosidade e rigor ascético. O trabalho passa a ser realizado pelo crente calvinista com o fim de acumular riqueza a fim de que através dela a confirmação do indício desejado. A aquisição material da riqueza como finalidade de vida marca de forma indelével a ética calvinista. Dois séculos depois inicia um movimento de inconformismo entre os pietistas que, insatisfeitos com a espiritualidade materialista do protestantismo calvinista, desenvolve uma sistema de crença que reinterpreta a doutrina da salvação e postula a “certeza emocional” como critério de confirmação da certeza da salvação. Esta consciência oriunda do pietismo gerou uma nova disposição religiosa no Movimento da Santidade que acabou favorecendo a formação do pentecostalismo nos Estados Unidos e no Brasil. O pentecostalismo surge como movimento de retorno às crenças escatológicas do cristianismo originário e, a partir delas, o sistema axiológico pentecostal desenvolve uma relação de distanciamento do mundo (santificação) que implica a mortificação da carne e a conservação de um estilo de vida intramundano destituído de interesse pelo progresso material. O pentecostalismo passa por três ondas, mas é o neopentecostalismo brasileiro que se apresenta como um movimento de ruptura com as duas primeiras ondas do pentecostalismo que o antecede. A Teologia da Prosperidade desenvolvida no neopentecostalismo incorpora o ideal de progresso oriundo da globalização, mas não apresenta nenhuma metafísica do sucesso. A prosperidade material passa a ser esperada de forma mágica, sem que o crente neopentecostal empregue qualquer esforço para obtê-la. O trabalho não é valorizado, nem o espírito de laboriosidade e nem o interesse pela qualificação técnica do trabalho profissional. A igreja Sara Nossa Terra nasce deste contexto neopentecostal, mas desenvolve um sistema axiológico que a diferencia dele. Ela desenvolve um sistema axiológico neoprotestante estruturado a partir de três componentes: uma metafísica do sucesso, uma espiritualidade do consumo e uma ética hedônica. A globalização é um fenômeno compreendido como revitalizador de crenças e valores protestantes calvinistas que são incorporadas pelo sistema axiológico da igreja Sara Nossa Terra e a torna uma legítima herdeira das crenças e valores fundamentais do protestantismo calvinista. A ética hedônica é um fator que a desfilia do cristianismo originário. Mas a metafísica do sucesso e a espiritualidade do consumo a refilia à genealogia protestante calvinista. O hedônico como ideal de vida plena torna o usufruto da riqueza como componente axiológico de novidade que justifica a utilização do prefixo “neo” do sistema axiológico neoprotestante da igreja Sara Nossa Terra. / The originary Christianity has developed in its followers a lifestyle matching to eschatological beliefs related to death and resurrection of Christ. A resigned, ascetic and devoid of any intramundane interest lifesytle through which justified the belief that the end of the world was imminent and that each believer was called to live according to this expectation. Fifteen centuries later, the Protestant Reformation introduces from the concept of “Berut”, a new conception of interaction between the believer with the world. The vocation becomes to be understood as capitalist activities, carried out with rational basis, as the fulfillment of the task according to the will of God. Under this perspective the calvinist protestant ethics is founded. The relationship of the calvinist believer with the world gains a new meaning. The anguish for confirming a sign of salvation leads the believer to develop an ethics supported by two virtues: spirit of laboriousness and ascetic rigor. The work becomes executed by calvinist believer in order to accumulate wealth so that through it the confirmation of the desired sign. The material acquisition of the wealth as the purpose of life marks indelibly the calvinist ethics. Two centuries later starts a movement of nonconformity among the pietist who dissatisfied with the materialistic spirituality of calvinist protestantism, develops a belief system that reinterprets the doctrine of salvation and posits the “emocional certainty”, as a criterion of confirmation of the certainty of salvation. This awareness arising out of pietism has generated a new religious disposition in the movement of holiness which ended up favoring the formation of pentecostalism in the United States and Brazil. The Pentecostalism arises as a movement of return to the eschathological beliefs of originary Christianity, and from them, the pentecostal axiological system develops a relationship of detachment from the world (sanctification) which implies the mortification of the flesh and the conservation of a intramundane lifestyle devoid of interest in the material progress. The pentecostalism goes through three waves, but it´s the brazilian neopentecostalism that presents itself as a movement of rupture with the two first waves of pentecostalism that procedes it. The prosperity theology developed in the neopentecostalism incorporates the ideal of progress arising from globalizaton, but it does not present no metaphysics of sucess. The material prosperity becomes expected in a magical way, without the pentecostal believer employ any effort to get it. The work is not valued, nor the spirit of laboriousness and the interest in the technical skill of a professsional work. The Sara Nossa Terra church is born from this neopentecostal context, but develops an axiological system that differentiates of it. It develops a structured neoprotestant axiological system from three components: a metaphysics of sucess, a spirituality of consumption, and a hedonic ethics. The globalization is a phenomenon understood as revitalizing of the protestant calvinist beliefs and values that are incorporated by the axiological system of Sara Nossa Terra church and becomes it a legitimate heir of the fundamental beliefs and values of calvinist protestantism. The hedonic ethics is a factor that disaffiliates it of the originary Christianity. But the metaphysics of sucess and the spirituality of consumption refill it to the calvinist protestant genealogy. The hedonic as ideal of life makes the enjoyment of wealth as axiological component of novelty that justifies the use of the prefix “neo” of neoprotestant axiological system of the Sara Nossa Terra church.

«Med liv og sjӕl» : Konstnärlighet i Cora Sandels noveller från mellankrigstiden / «With life and soul» : Artistry in Cora Sandel’s interwar period short storiesHansen, Siri January 2018 (has links)
Cora Sandel published three collections of short stories during the 1920’s and the 1930’s; En blå sofa og andre noveller (“A blue sofa”, 1927), Carmen og Maja og andre noveller (“Carmen and Maja”, 1932) and Mange takk doktor, noveller (“Many thanks, Doctor”, 1935). However, the studies of Cora Sandel’s work have mostly focused on her three novels about Alberte. This thesis is an attempt to shed light on the short stories from the interwar period, from the perspective of artistry. Cora Sandel started out as a visual artist herself, but, rather unwillingly, abandoned it for writing when painting became harder to combine with being a mother and a wife. This thesis looks at how artistry is portraited in the short stories. Many kinds of artistry are discussed; painting as well as writing, acting, crafts and musicality. What is artistry associated with and what roles does it play? Short stories have been selected from the three collections where artistry plays a significant role. The result is accounted for in four segments, each about an aspect of how artistry is portraited in the short stories; “Incompatible Parenthood”, “Passion”, “Poverty” and “Men, Women and Artistry”.

Reivindicación de sitios públicos femeninos: retrato de mujeres fuertes mexicanas en la crónica de Salvador Novo, Carlos Monsiváis y Sara SefchovichJanuary 2013 (has links)
abstract: Las personas públicas de mujeres fuertes mexicanas generalmente se definen como desafiantes y contrarias a los roles sociales generalmente aceptados de las mujeres sumisas. Dichas personas públicas exigen atención y buscan incluirse en la cultura popular. Sin embargo, cuando se analizan mediante los rubros de la teoría queer, se revelan arquetipos heternormativos. Esta tesis examina cronológicamente la obra de tres cronistas mexicanos de los siglos XX y XXI, Salvador Novo, Carlos Monsiváis y Sara Sefchovich, analizando su retrato de mujeres fuertes que ocupan sitios urbanos públicos en la Ciudad de México. Se investigan los efectos sociales elitistas de las imágenes públicas de mujeres fuertes, revelando restricciones patriarcales de mujeres en espacios públicos y construcciones subsecuentes de personas públicas como exóticas y cosificadas, asimismo facilitando interacciones con una sociedad sumamente masculinista y machista. La falta de agencialidad social real se revela cuando el patriarcado se reafirma, a pesar de la índole disconforme de las mujeres retratadas. Los constructos de familia y de masculinidad exigen la existencia tanto del padre y del esposo ausentes como del hipermacho y de la acompañante mujer sumisa limitada a sitios privados. El retrato de mujeres fuertes en la obra analizada desnaturaliza la imagen de domesticidad, señalando que las mujeres mexicanas salen del hogar para ocupar sitios públicos en la Ciudad de México. Como la normalización del constructo de familia se cuestiona, la teoría queer se utiliza en una manera innovadora para analizar dichos retratos de mujeres fuertes y agencialidad sociopolítica. / Dissertation/Thesis / M.A. Spanish 2013
