An exploration into complementary and alternative medicine at home and abroad / Exploration into CAMRausch, Kimberly B. January 2006 (has links)
The White House Commission on Complementary and Alternative Medicine Policy (WHCCAMP) suggests that CAM may be useful in contributing to the achievement of the nation's health objectives listed in Healthy People 2010 (Chapter 8: CAM and wellness in health promotion, 2002). The purpose of this study was to compare CAM practitioners and practices in Australia, where CAM has been embraced, to those in the United States. Overall there were many similarities and few differences between the two country's results. The themes that resulted from analyzing the transcripts of 5 in-depth interviews with practitioners included; collaboration and integration, community descriptions, general characteristics of practice, general characteristics of practitioner, growth and life purpose, holism, need for health culture change, personalized attention/tailored intervention, and technology use. The implications that resulted may inform users of CAM, students of medicine, and American citizens who desire safe alternative ways to improve their health. / Fisher Institute for Wellness and Gerontology

[pt] POESIA POLÍTICA NO LONGO SÉCULO XIX: TRADUÇÕES COMENTADAS DE POEMAS / [en] POLITICAL POETRY IN THE LONG NINETEENTH CENTURY: COMMENTED TRANSLATIONS OF POEMSEDUARDO FRIEDMAN 10 February 2022 (has links)
[pt] O trabalho apresenta traduções comentadas de seis poemas situados no longo século XIX, conceito criado pelo historiador britânico Eric Hobsbawm para descrever o período compreendido entre a Revolução Francesa e o início da Primeira Guerra Mundial (1789-1914). Os poemas escolhidos foram escritos como reações a guerras, conflitos ou revoluções que se passaram no continente europeu, mais especificamente à Revolução Francesa (Is it a reed, de William Wordsworth), às Guerras Napoleônicas (Poetical essay on the existing state of things, de Percy Bysshe Shelley, apesar de não ser apenas sobre isso, e Napoleon s farewell (from the French), de Lord Byron), à Primavera das Nações (To a foil d European revolutionaire, de Walt Whitman) e à Primeira Guerra Mundial (On being asked for a war poem e The Second Coming, ambos de William Butler
Yeats). / [en] This thesis features commented translations of six poems written during the long nineteenth century, a term coined by British historian Eric Hobsbawm for the period between the French Revolution and the start of the First World War (1789-1914). The chosen poems were written as responses to wars, conflicts or revolutions that were happening in Europe, more specifically the French Revolution (Is it a reed , by William Wordsworth), the Napoleonic Wars (Poetical essay on the existing state of things, by Percy Bysshe Shelley, even though it deals not only with that, and Napoleon s farewell (from the French), by Lord Byron), the Springtime of Nations (To a foil d European revolutionaire, by Walt Whitman) and the First World War (On being asked for a war poem and The Second Coming, both by William Butler Yeats).

<em>Manfred</em>, <em>Don Juan</em>, and the Romantic Tragedy of the SubjectLeinenbach, Trenton Robert 01 March 2016 (has links)
While the Romantic lyric has long been understood as an exploration of human subjectivity, the era's dramatic works have been viewed as more oriented toward objective or mimetic representation. As such, scholarship on Romantic subjectivity from Harold Bloom to Andrea Henderson has bypassed dramatic and quasi-dramatic explorations of subjectivity. These explorations, however, add to the conversation about subjectivity in powerful ways by addressing the paradoxes of mimetically representing subjectivity. These difficulties spring from a question that surrounds mimetically represented subjectivity: how can a supposedly objective medium portray experience that is by definition non-objective, purely interior, and therefore incommunicable? This paradox calls for a reassessment of criticism on Romantic subjectivity, this time attending not only to the Romantic lyric with its recognized formal emphasis on interiority, but also to Romantic drama, which productively resists interiority by underscoring the paradoxes inherent to representations of subjectivity. This thesis traces the development of dramatic explorations of subjectivity in two of Byron's works, the closet drama Manfred and the trans-generic mock-epic Don Juan. Manfred attempts to mimetically portray the horrors of subjectivity by showing how the title character's solipsism leads to his demise. The work ultimately falls short of this purpose, but in so doing reveals a crucial paradox: the tragedy inherent to subjectivity lies in the very inexpressibility the play hopes to express. Don Juan, on the other hand, embraces this paradox by allowing the work's theme of Manfred-like subjectivity to leak from content to form—from the story of Juan to the very act of diegesis. This blurring of textual lines results in generic inversions, marked in Don Juan by the constant irruptions of comedy into the otherwise tragic tale. Ultimately, if Don Juan succeeds as tragedy of subjectivity, it does so by failing, tragically, at being tragedy. Such a tragedy must be understood based on a dynamic, rather than a static, conception of genre; rather than being defined based on a resemblance to recognized tragedies, Don Juan's tragic associations come from the work's constant movement between genres. As such, Don Juan's method for treating the paradoxes of mimetically portrayed subjectivity is to imagine them as the play between content and genre, substance and form.

Finding Inspiration in Darkness: The Exploration of Obscurity in Romanticism through the Works of Lord Byron and Gustavo Adolfo BécquerSeal, Sarah E 01 December 2016 (has links)
Through the works of Lord Byron and Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer, I explored the function of the themes of darkness and obscurity in Romanticism. There was a clear connection between the inclusion of these themes and the rejection of the Enlightenment period, which is what I focused on in this thesis. I discovered that the Romantics found inspiration and beauty in the darker, stranger aspects of the natural world, while rejecting the logical and rational beliefs of the Enlightenment.

Spatial distribution of phosphorus in the sediments of a constructed wetland receiving treated sewage effluentRowley, Maxine Joy, University of Western Sydney, Hawkesbury, Faculty of Science and Technology January 1998 (has links)
The Byron Bay Sewage Treatment work consists of a conventional treatment system discharging into an 8 ha wetland. The wetland was constructed around the dune and swale remnants of a coastal beach ridge formation. The wetland design incorporated stands of broad leaf paperback, Melaleuca quinquenervia , in two distinct Sections, separated by, and each preceded by, open water Sections fringed by predominantly emergent macrophytes. Spatial and temporal patterns in sediment phosphorus concentrations were examined using sediment cores. Core consisted of three main sediment types - surface organic accumulation, pre-existing organic layers and sand. Results suggest that the design and management of wetland systems should be aimed at maximising the deposition of sediment (and associated phosphorus) and minimising subsequent phosphorus release from the sediment. This might be achieved through the removal of accumulated organic sediments to retain the phosphorus adsorption capacity of the system, consideration of wind direction during periods of high (floating) plant growth (as detritus may accumulate along the up-wind edges of the wetland), incorporation of deep zones to minimise sediment phosphorus release and the inclusion of stands of M. quinquenervia. Results highlight pitfalls in the prevailing approach to wetland design, which ignore the complex functions which occur in natural wetland systems. A more holistic approach incorporating a high diversity of ecozones in wetland design is proposed, in effect mimicking natural systems. / Master of Science (Hons)

Drink of Me, and You Shall Have Eternal Life: An Analysis of Lord Byron's "The Giaour" and the Greek Folkloric VampireJanuary 2010 (has links)
abstract: This paper contains an examination of the impact of the Vampire Hysteria in Europe during the 1700’s on Lord Byron's “The Giaour.” Byron traveled to the continent in 1809 and wrote the poems that came to be known as his Oriental Romances after overhearing what would become “The Giaour ” in “ one of the many coffee-houses that abound in the Levant.” The main character, the Giaour, has characteristics typical of the Greek vampire, called vrykolakas. The vamping of characters, the cyclic imagery, and the juxtaposition of life and death as it is expressed within the poem are analyzed in comparison to vampiric folklore, especially that of Greece. / Dissertation/Thesis / M.A. English 2010

"Newstead and I stand or fall together": Memorial Ecology and Multispecies Agency in Byron's Early PoetryWintch, Taylore Ann 17 June 2022 (has links)
Scholars studying memory, literary tourism, and Byron all note the cooperation between author and audience at work in memorials--be it in terms of speech and response, hospitality and reception, or memory and forgetting. None, however, address the environment at Newstead as an agentic being involved with Byron's memorial legacy. Byron acknowledged multispecies beings as important actors in his eventual legacy. Through some of his early poems, we see the land under and around Newstead Abbey, as well as its nonhuman life, exercising agency and affecting Byron's memory. I limit my analysis to Byron's early poetry partly to trace how a younger, more earnest Byron relied on Romantic memory-building culture and partly to focus on the effects that Newstead had on Byron's legacy. My primary objects of study are the following poems: "On Leaving Newstead Abbey" (composed 1803), "To an Oak in the Garden of Newstead Abbey" (1807), "Elegy on Newstead Abbey" (1807), and "Inscription on the Monument of a Newfoundland Dog" (1808). Each of these addresses the Byrons' ancestral estate as an ecology which Byron imbued with poetic purpose, and the core location of his youthful legacy-building project. I address the poems in chronological order to show how Byron recruits and unites different voices to support his legacy. Focusing on Newstead in this sense sheds light on any number of related phenomena pertaining to Byronism, especially monuments, Byron's home, and other aspects of material culture that honored Byron's posthumous legacy. Given that, within years of writing these four poems, Byron would become known worldwide as the quintessential Romantic poet, his ancestral home, like other things and spaces that came to stand in for him, offers a highly useful and arguably paradigmatic case study. That it is not just a monument, but a composite being acting in and made up of literal and memorial ecosystems, suggests a kind of memorial agency or voice emerging from Newstead. This influence supports what Byron poetically speaks about and into Newstead and expands our notion of what effective memorials entail, effectively advocating for more and better study of environmental actors within reception studies.
