Tsai, Chih-Chien 04 June 2007 (has links)
We analyze institutional allocation in initial public offerings (IPOs) using a new data set of R.O.C. offerings between 2005 and 2006. We document a positive relationship between institutional allocation and day one IPOs returns. This is partly explained by the practice of giving institutions more shares in IPOs with strong premarket demand, consistent with Book Building theories. However, institutional allocation also contains private information about first-day IPOs returns not reflected in premarket demand and other public information. Our evidence supports Book Building theories of IPO underpricing, but suggests that institutional allocation in Underpriced issue is in excess of that explained by Book Building alone.

A study of Debussy¡¦s Piano Work¡§Prelude¡¨Book ¢¹¡Gfrom historical viewpoints to research into performance interpretation

Yang, Sze-Wen 23 January 2003 (has links)
Debussy composed a piano work Préludes Book I in 1909. By Symbolism and Impressionism in French, Debussy was induced to write twelve pieces in Préludes Book I. His composes not only reveal variety but also involve the actuality, tales, antique and modern cultures in his creations. The thesis first investigates the relation in Debussy, Symbolism, and Impressionism. The second work is description of the composed background of Préludes Book I. Finally, we discuss the performance interpretation in Debussy Préludes Book I according to the statements of historians with Léon Vallas, Paul Roberts, E. Robert Schmitz, R. Myers, and pianists Marguertite Long, Alfred Cortot and Debussy¡¦s friends Lousia Liebich, Robert Godet. In this thesis, the historical viewpoints would be adopted to research the performance of expression for Préludes Book I. And, we expect each player who is able to explicitly understand the expression of this piece when he or she possesses an excellent skill in the future.

Integrating 3D and 2D computer generated imagery for the comics medium

DeLuna, Ruben 17 February 2005 (has links)
Advances in 3D computer technology have led to aesthetic experimentation within the comics medium. Comic creators have produced comic books done entirely with 3D models that are then assembled digitally for the printed page. However, in using these 3D objects in a comic format, the creators have developed art styles that do not adhere to the paradigms established by this traditionally 2D medium. More successful results can be achieved by integrating 3D computer generated imagery with traditional 2D imagery, rather than replacing it. This thesis develops a method of combining rendered 3D models with 2D vector graphics to create a comic book art style that is consistent with the traditional medium, while still taking advantage of the new technology.

Architecture of the upper Sego Sandstone, Book Cliffs, Utah

Birkhead, Stanley Scott 12 April 2006 (has links)
This study maps the facies architecture and geometry of stratigraphic surfaces within the tide-influenced upper Sego Sandstone exposed in the Book Cliffs between Crescent Junction and Thompson Springs, Utah. A bedding diagram was constructed by correlating 32 measured stratigraphic logs across this 8.5 kilometer strike-oblique outcrop to interpret depositional environments and the sequence stratigraphic setting of this tidally-influenced sandstone. Five facies associations are defined: marine shale, lower shoreface, tidally-influenced bedsets, heterolithic tidal bedsets, and tidal flat deposits. Vertical facies trends define two sandy intervals separated by a marine shale, that are interpreted to record episodic progradation of deltaic shorelines. Erosion surfaces at the base of these intervals are interrupted to record tidal scouring of the sea floor during falling stage regression. Sandstone-bodies within these intervals shingle westward recording delta lobes that thinned and became more heterolithic. Although sandstone intervals are interpreted to record progradation, internal cross stratification is dominantly tidal-flood oriented. This is interpreted to record preferential preservation of bedload transported by flood tidal currents onshore, even though net sediment was directed offshore in a suspended ebb-oriented hypopycnal plume and as fluid mud during uncommon river floods. Deposits above high-relief erosion surfaces observed to cut down into the upper Sego Sandstone do not meet the criteria for incised valley fills. These surfaces are interpreted to record tidal current enlargement of distributary channels after abandonment. Such incisions thus do not necessarily record changes in sea level.

Fengci and Korean aesthetic- political analysis : Jung Yak - yong’s Commentary on The Book of Odes / Jung Yak - yong's Commentary on The Book of Odes

Jiang, Zhangwei 18 June 2012 (has links)
The Book of Odes carries specific classical aesthetic, political, social and literature value. How it was reflected by traditional scholar Chŏng Yak-yong in monarch Chosŏn dynasty within the rhetoric end? Between the conflict within text knowledge of traditional classics and practical knowledge of western learning, how Chŏng Yak-yong balanced and combined them with rhetorical discourses of fengci(풍자,讽刺)? And what Chŏng Yak-yong understood the rhetoric of fengci offered the open end for the future development of understanding the tradition. Chŏng Yak-yong was one of Korean traditional scholars in late Chosŏn dynasty and through his commitments the fengci in the Book of Odes, I tried to dignify Chŏng Yak-yong’s assumption to image of Korean state confronting the influence of western practical learning and western Catholic religion. Chŏng Yak-yong through his commitments rhetoric of fengci in the Book of Odes rebirthed the traditional thoughts with new contents under the influence of western practical learning. His ideology of state of Korea was based on the traditional text knowledge, meanwhile combined western practical knowledge to build Korean new specific knowledge essence of morality, value and the emotion of public of Koreans, revealing and realizing the power of the state. Even more, his understanding of the fengci in the Book of Odes was based on fengci’s social critical function, associating with Korean traditional ethic value of humanism, rebuilding the essential nature of ruler and noble to the public, which was proper to the current political domination of monarch system. Additionally, the discourse of fengci contained in the Book of Odes would have its literature meaning as poems to the society and political domination. This thesis would find the way that fengci as the rhetoric that how its discourse related the society, politics and literature as an integrated system in monarch late Chosŏn period. / text

Bilderboken ur ett genusperspektiv : En bilderboksanalys av tre svenska böcker som utmanar stereotypa könsroller / The Picture Book from a Gender Perspective : A picture book analysis of three Swedish books that challenge gender stereotypes

Malmqvist, Hanna January 2015 (has links)
Syftet med denna studie är att se hur några bilderböcker utmanar de stereotypa könsrollerna. Jag kommer att granska hur pojkar och flickor framställs ur ett genusperspektiv och även titta på hur text och bild kompletterar varandra, med hjälp av Nikolajevas (2000) analysmodell för bilderböcker. Jag har valt att analysera tre stycken böcker och två av dessa har pojkar som huvudkaraktärer och en har en flicka som huvudkaraktär. Med den medvetenhet man har idag kring genus så kan dessa böcker vara ett bra material och verktyg i förskolan för att kunna visa att man får vara precis den man vill vara och det är inget som är konstigt med det. / The purpose of this study is to see how some picture books challenge gender stereotypes. I will review how boys and girls are portrayed from a gender perspective and also look at how text and image complement each other, with the help of Nikolajeva’s (2000) analysis model for picture books. I have chosen to analyze three books and two of these have boys as the main characters and one has a girl as the main character. With the awareness we have today on gender are these books a good material and a tool that can be useful in the preschool, in order to show that you can be just the one you want to be and there is nothing strange about it.
