Para tanto, procede-se à análise bibliográfica dos romances “A vida e as opiniões do cavalheiro Tristram Shandy” e “Eles eram muitos cavalos” em relação ao gênero da sátira menipeia e às outras artes como o cinema, a poesia, a música e o teatro. Observa-se o percurso da menipeia nas obras dos autores com o aporte de teóricos como Mikhail Bakhtin, Northrop Frye, José Guilherme Merquior e Enylton José de Sá Rego para apontar as similaridades e dessemelhanças em suas construções. É necessário ressaltar que este gênero agrega um questionamento social aos autores por discutir também a relação entre literatura e realidade. Questão aprofundada pelos autores também pelo amplo uso de técnicas provenientes de outras artes, por esse motivo as obras são consideradas como híbridas. Para trabalhar esse conceito seguimos com base no antropólogo Néstor Garcia Canclíni. É de importância na análise o conceito de performance, pois na tessitura das obras há um trabalho de mediação com os leitores realizado pela materialidade do livro e por um estilo tipográfico. Este conceito é balizado pelo entendimento de Paul Zumthor, e outros pensadores como Renato Cohen e Regina Melim. Por fim, conclui-se que apesar do distanciamento de séculos entre os autores há um intenso diálogo entre as obras que se iluminam mutuamente e demonstram a utilidade da tradição na vanguarda da literatura contemporânea brasileira. / Considering the appreciation Luiz Ruffato showed for Laurence Sterne. We intend to understand the similitaries between the authors works. Therefore, we proceed to a bibliographical analysis of the novels “The life and opinions of Tristram Shandy, gentleman” and “They were many horses” in comparison to the menippean satire and the cinema, poetry, music and drama. With the theoretical groundwork of Mikhail Bakhtin, Northrop Frye, José Guilherme Merquior and Enylton José de Sá Rego we take notice of the mennipean satire influence in the analysed novels to discover correlations and dissimilarities between them. It is necessary to point out that this literary gender brings a taste for social criticism by discussing also the relation between literature and reality. Which is further questioned by the intense use of techniques derived from other arts. Because of this usage “Tristram Shandy” and “They were many horse” are considered hybrid novels. To work with hybridization we approach the thought of Néstor Garcia Canclini. It is also important the concept of performance, because in the making of the novels there are a personalized form of mediation with the reader and a typographical style. This concept is based in Paul Zumthor’s theory and other authors like Renato Cohen and Regina Melim. In the end, we conclude that in spite of the centuries apart there is an intense dialogue between the authors and their works that demonstrate the usefulness of tradition in contemporary brazilian literature vanguard.

Rompendo com no??es est?ticas predominantes do g?nero romanesco de sua ?poca, Sterne apresenta em sua obra uma narrativa fragmentada, com cap?tulos incompletos e fora de ordem, intermin?veis digress?es e um narrador cuja confiabilidade ? constantemente colocada em quest?o. Partindo da complexidade proporcionada pelas inova??es est?ticas de Sterne, investigaremos as diversas formas pelas quais o autor quebra a narrativa em seu romance. Essas quebras possuem como principal objetivo provocar nos seus leitores uma sensa??o constante de estranhamento e frustra??o, de modo que para se compreender Tristram Shandy ? necess?rio por parte do leitor deixar de lado uma leitura passiva e passar a trabalhar em conjunto com o pr?prio narrador do romance, Tristram, para, dessa forma, compreender as inten??es por tr?s da narrativa fragmentada e ca?tica de Sterne, as quais possuem o prop?sito de provocar o riso e a reflex?o, al?m de revelar uma vis?o sat?rica e cr?tica da sociedade puritana inglesa do s?culo XVIII. Para a an?lise deste trabalho, observaremos as t?cnicas est?ticas e narrativas utilizadas por Sterne que t?m por finalidade causar o estranhamento e alterar a percep??o do leitor, como a fragmenta??o do romance, as mudan?as de ritmo na narrativa e a parodiza??o. Al?m disso, analisaremos como o riso ? provocado atrav?s da carnavaliza??o e da erotiza??o. Por fim, falaremos um pouco sobre os recursos gr?ficos utilizados pelo autor de modo a manter sua marca autoral na obra. Usaremos como base te?rica estudos de Chklovsky (1978), Lotman (1978), Bakhtin (1993), Genette (1995), Reis e Lopes (2000), Arag?o (1980), entre outros. Conclu?mos que as rupturas na narrativa de Sterne possuem o objetivo de criar uma obra capaz de dar aos seus leitores uma experi?ncia ?nica de leitura, revelando por tr?s de sua narrativa fragmentada uma obra de poderosa cr?tica e s?tira social, al?m de um senso de humor extremamente cr?tico e inovador. / The goal of this study is to do a structural analysis of the work of the Irish author Laurence Sterne (1713-1768), The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman, published in 1760 and that was remarkable for representing a true aesthetic revolution in a literary genre that was already renowned on the 18th century in England: the novel. Breaking with the predominant aesthetical notions of the romanesque genre of his time, Sterne shows in his work a shattered narrative, with incomplete, out of order, chapters, endless digressions and a narrator whose trustworthiness is constantly put in question. Starting from the complexity brought by Sterne?s aesthetical innovations, we will investigate various ways by which the author breaks the narrative in his novel. Those breaks have as main goal to provoke in his readers a constant sensation of strangeness and frustration, so that in order to understand Tristram Shandy it is necessary that the reader forgoes a passive reading and starts to work alongside with the author himself, Tristram, so that they may understand the intentions behind Sterne?s shattered and chaotic narrative, which seeks to provoke laughter and reflection, plus revealing a satirical and critic view of the English puritan society of the 18th century. For the analysis of this novel, we will investigate the aesthetical techniques and narratives used by Sterne that seek to cause strangeness and alter the reader?s perception, like the fragmentation of the novel, the changes in the rhythm of the narrative and the process of parody. Furthermore, we will analyse how the laughter is performed through the carnivalization and the erotization, and finally we will discuss a little about the graphical techniques are used by the author to reclaim his authorial property in his work. As our theoretical basis, we will use the studies by Chklovsky (1978), Lotman (1978), Bakhtin (1993), Genette (1995), Reis and Lopes (2000), Arag?o (1980), among others. We conclude that the ruptures of the narrative on Sterne?s work aim to create a work able to give to its readers a unique reading experience, revealing a work of powerful criticism and social satire behind its shattered narrative, as well as an extremely critic and innovating sense of humour.

The similarities between Swift's Grub Street Hack and Sterne's Tristram are persistent and remarkable, even though the Hack is a satiric pose of Swift and Tristram a comic projection of Sterne. Perhaps the most striking similarity lies in the constant tension between the reader's expectations of a wise narrator and a sequential style and the Hack's and Tristram's perverse frustration of the reader's desire for order. The foolish narrators, in an obstructive style, develop systematic theories based on absurd hypotheses. This perversity is not only witty and amusing, but also a reflection of Swift's and Sterne's eighteenth century “rage for order." To Swift, order is a necessity, to be defended by attacking all that threatens order. Swift imitates the chaos he saw in seventeenth-century style and thought by assuming the mask of a fool who speaks in the accents of hundreds of modern pretenders to learning. But the seeming chaos of the Hack's discourse is ordered by Swift's satiric intent and his views on Gnosticism. In the end, comic order predominates as the quintessence of disorder, the Hack is laughed off the stage. Wit triumphs over dulness. However, the comedy is undermined by tragic associations of evil, madness, and anarchy. To Sterne, conventional order of time and formal logic are illusions. He imitates the disorder in men's minds by assuming a mask and playing many parts. The seeming chaos of Tristram's narration is ordered by the association of ideas, a central group of characters, and the values of humour, common sense, feeling and benevolence. In the end, in spite of suggestions of the world's ill nature, hypocrisy, and corruption, comic order predominates. / Arts, Faculty of / English, Department of / Graduate

Webern scholarship has not comprehensively examined op. 25, drei lieder. If the selection of text for op. 25 is viewed as one work in three movements they create a ternary form (A-B-A1). To show how this form is developed in the music the author creates a new analytical system based on Schoenberg's Grundgestalt which is defined by three basic ideas: symmetry, liquidation, and variation. The relationship between the voice and accompaniment and Webern's deliberate manipulation of the text is used to reveal the use of a program which is then tied to the numerical symbolism of 2 and 3.

Cette thèse veut explorer l’idée de l’existence d’un roman de la non-linéarité, à travers un inventaire de la critique et l’analyse comparée de quatre ouvrages considérés comme appartenant à cette tradition (The life and opinions of Tristram Shandy, gentleman, de Laurence Sterne ; Pale fire, de Vladimir Nabokov ; La vie mode d’emploi, de Georges Perec ; House of leaves, de Mark Z. Danielewski).Dans le premier chapitre, est postulée la thèse de deux traditions dans l’histoire du roman : la tradition du roman réaliste, et une tradition caractérisée par l’utilisation de formes non linéaires. L’analyse des études sur la tradition réflexive du roman, sur la théorie du chaos appliquée à la littérature, sur les marges textuelles, sur la lecture et sur l’intertextualité seront pris en compte pour soutenir cette thèse.Sur la base de ces questionnements, le deuxième chapitre esquisse une définition du roman de la nonlinéarité, qui comprend un répertoire des procédés et des thèmes communs à cette tradition, ainsi qu’une réflexion sur ses approches du monde et de l’identité humaine.Le troisième chapitre laisse la place à l’analyse des textes du corpus. Les quatre romans sont analysés chacun pour ses spécificités, et aussi dans la perspective de vérifier le postulat d’une tradition d’un roman de la non-linéarité. En s’appuyant sur de nombreux exemples extraits des romans pris en considération, l’analyse s’articule en huit sections : le problème du commencement ; l’intertextualité ; la complexité du récit de vie ; les questions de l’interruption, de la procrastination et de l’absence ; les approches dutemps ; les approches du langage ; le thème du jeu ; l’impossibilité de la fin. / This thesis aims to explore the idea of the existence of a novel of nonlinearity, through an inspection of the criticism and the comparative analysis of four works considered as belonging to this tradition (The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman, by Laurence Sterne; Pale Fire, by Vladimir Nabokov; Life, a User’s Manual (La vie mode d’emploi), by Georges Perec; and House of Leaves, by Mark Z. Danielewski).The first chapter postulates the thesis of two traditions in the history of the novel: the tradition of the realist novel, and a tradition distinguished by the use of nonlinear forms. In order to support this thesis, I’ll take into account studies about the reflexive tradition of the novel, about chaos theory as applied to literature, about the margins of the text, about the reading experience, and about intertextuality.On the basis of this examination, the second chapter outlines a definition of the novel of nonlinearity, which includes a repertoire of the literary devices and themes common to this tradition, and a reflection about its perspectives upon the world and human identity.The third chapter is dedicated to the analyses of the texts included in the corpus. The four novels are analyzed for their distinctive features, and also in the aim of verifying the premise of the existence of a novel of nonlinearity. Drawing on numerous examples selected from the novels, these analyses are structured in eight sections: the problem of beginning; intertextuality; the complexity of life narratives; the issues of interruption, procrastination and absence; the approaches to time; the approaches to language; the theme of the game; and the impossibility of an ending.

Stellar winds play an important role for the evolution of massive stars and their cosmic environment. Multiple lines of evidence, coming from spectroscopy, polarimetry, variability, stellar ejecta, and hydrodynamic modeling, suggest that stellar winds are non-stationary and inhomogeneous. This is referred to as 'wind clumping'. The urgent need to understand this phenomenon is boosted by its far-reaching implications. Most importantly, all techniques to derive empirical mass-loss rates are more or less corrupted by wind clumping. Consequently, mass-loss rates are extremely uncertain. Within their range of uncertainty, completely different scenarios for the evolution of massive stars are obtained. Settling these questions for Galactic OB, LBV and Wolf-Rayet stars is prerequisite to understanding stellar clusters and galaxies, or predicting the properties of first-generation stars. In order to develop a consistent picture and understanding of clumped stellar winds, an international workshop on 'Clumping in Hot Star Winds' was held in Potsdam, Germany, from 18. - 22. June 2007. About 60 participants, comprising almost all leading experts in the field, gathered for one week of extensive exchange and discussion. The Scientific Organizing Committee (SOC) included John Brown (Glasgow), Joseph Cassinelli (Madison), Paul Crowther (Sheffield), Alex Fullerton (Baltimore), Wolf-Rainer Hamann (Potsdam, chair), Anthony Moffat (Montreal), Stan Owocki (Newark), and Joachim Puls (Munich). These proceedings contain the invited and contributed talks presented at the workshop, and document the extensive discussions.
