Vad är problemet i a-kassan?

Unander-Scharin, Teresia January 2008 (has links)
The object of the essay was to investigate the argumentation in the bill, the comments from unions and the authorities, among others and the motions concerning the bill. To analysis this argumentation I have been using feminist theory, specifically Carole Lee Bacchis ”What’s the problem”-aproach. I also used Maud Eduards and Diane Sainsbury to complete my theory. They describe men as the norm of the society and women as deviant. The questions I have been investigating in the texts are - What’s the problem? - Who or what caused the problem? - Who or what is responsible for the problem? - Who has the responsibility to change the problem? - What problem is not mentioned? - Are men mentioned as a gender and a group? - Are women mentioned as a gender and a group? - How are men and women described? The investigation found that the problems that was presented in the theory was very mush present in the text that I investigated. Women are seen as passive and as willingness victims of their employers. Men on the other hand are active and are mentioned as the opposite of these women. The results however varied depending on which text was studied, but the main picture remained the same.

Triuiae sacerdotes : les servantes de Diane et l’initiation d’Énée / Tliuiae sacerdotes : the servants of Diana and the initiation of Aeneas

Rohmer, Julien 19 September 2016 (has links)
L'objet de cette thèse est de montrer en quoi l'Énéide constitue le récit de l'initiation royale d'Énée sous le patronage de Diane, la déesse latine de la souveraineté. L'épopée révèle sa dimension initiatique à travers sa triplicité - narrative et fonctionnelle -, en accord avec la théologie de la déesse initiatique, elle-même triple et trifonctionnelle. Chacun des niveaux fonctionnels de Diane est incarné par l'une de ses servantes : Didon (troisième fonction), la Sibylle (première fonction),Camille (deuxième fonction). Subissant les épreuves rencontrées dans les domaines sauvages et marginaux dont elles sont - au moins symboliquement - les maîtresses (Carthage, Cumes, le Latium), Énée se qualifie comme initié dans chaque fonction, ce qui lui permet d'accéder au statut d'être complet, trifonctionnel, idéal du roi indo-européen. / The purpose of this thesis is to show how the Aeneid constitutes the account of the royal initiation of Aeneas under the patronage of Diana, the Latin goddess of sovereignty. The epic reveals its initiatory dimension through its narrative and functional triplicity, in accordance with the theology of the initiatory goddess, triple and trifunctional herself. Each of Diana's functional levels is embodied by one of her servants: Dido (third function), the Sibyl (first function), Camilla (second function). Subjected to the trials in the wild and marginal areas of which they are - at least symbolically - the mistresses (Carthage, Cumae, Latium), Aeneas qualifies as an initiate in every function, which allows him to access to the status of complete, trifunctional being, the ideal of the lndo-European king.

D'Azay-Le-Rideau à Chenonceau : l'eau et la mise en scène de l'ensemble château-jardin à la Renaissance (1513-1560) / From Azay-Le-Rideau to Chenonceau : the water and the staging of the set castel-garden at the Renaissance

Brochier, Diane 27 January 2017 (has links)
Châteaux bâtis sur une rivière, Azay-le-Rideau et Chenonceau entretiennent des rapports privilégiés avec l’élément aquatique. Comment celui-ci était-il mis en scène dans le cadre du jardin ? Plantés sur des îles naturelles ou artificielles, ces derniers sont-ils le fruit d’une mode ou ont-ils été influencés par des oeuvres littéraires contemporaines ? Le jardin d’île du Songe de Poliphile de Francesco Colonna a-t-il été déterminant dans l’évolution du jardin français de la Renaissance et en particulier dans ceux d’Azay-le-Rideau et de Chenonceau ? La thèse aura pour objectif de préciser leurs caractéristiques (accès, clôture, terrassement, structuration, plantations) dont la place des aménagements hydrauliques dans la mise en scène de l’ensemble château-jardin entre 1513-1560. Nous aborderons également la question de l’importance de la promenade et de la vue sur le paysage autour de la demeure. Puis, nous envisagerons la possibilité que le végétal ait participé à la création d’un discours iconographique dans le parterre de Diane à Chenonceau / Built near a river, the casltes of Azay-le-Rideau and Chenonceau have a special relationship with the water element. What relationship did these gardens have with water? How was it used to showcase the garden? Planted on natural or artificial river islands, are these gardens the result of a trend or do they owe their creation to litterary works of their time? Was Francesco Colonna’s Island Garden of the Hypnerotomachia Poliphili determining in the evolution of French Renaissance gardens and particularly at Azay-le-Rideau and Chenonceau? The Phd we are presenting will aim to explain their caracteristics between 1513-1560, including the role of hydraulic constructions in the staging of the whole castle garden. We also will endeavor to study the importance of the question of the promenade and of the view of the landscape around the castle. Then, we will consider the possibility that plants had participated to an iconographic lecture of the « parterre de Diane »

Beyond the electronic connection : the technologically manufactured cyber-human and its physical human counterpart in performance : a theory related to convergence identities

Sharir, Yacov January 2013 (has links)
This thesis is an investigation of the complex processes and relationships between the physical human performer and the technologically manufactured cyber-human counterpart. I acted as both researcher and the physical human performer, deeply engaged in the moment-to-moment creation of events unfolding within a shared virtual reality environment. As the primary instigator and activator of the cyber-human partner, I maintained a balance between the live and technological performance elements, prioritizing the production of content and meaning. By way of using practice as research, this thesis argues that in considering interactions between cyber-human and human performers, it is crucial to move beyond discussions of technology when considering interactions between cyber-humans and human performers to an analysis of emotional content, the powers of poetic imagery, the trust that is developed through sensory perception and the evocation of complex relationships. A theoretical model is constructed to describe the relationship between a cyber-human and a human performer in the five works created specifically for this thesis, which is not substantially different from that between human performers. Technological exploration allows for the observation and analysis of various relationships, furthering an expanded understanding of ‘movement as content’ beyond the electronic connection. Each of the works created for this research used new and innovative technologies, including virtual reality, multiple interactive systems, six generations of wearable computers, motion capture technology, high-end digital lighting projectors, various projection screens, smart electronically charged fabrics, multiple sensory sensitive devices and intelligent sensory charged alternative performance spaces. They were most often collaboratively created in order to augment all aspects of the performance and create the sense of community found in digital live dance performances/events. These works are identified as one continuous line of energy and discovery, each representing a slight variation on the premise that a working, caring, visceral and poetic content occurs beyond the technological tools. Consequently, a shift in the physical human’s psyche overwhelms the act of performance. Scholarship and reflection on the works have been integral to my creative process throughout. The goals of this thesis, the works created and the resulting methodologies are to investigate performance to heighten the multiple ways we experience and interact with the world. This maximizes connection and results in a highly interactive, improvisational, dynamic, non-linear, immediate, accessible, agential, reciprocal, emotional, visceral and transformative experience without boundaries between the virtual and physical for physical humans, cyborgs and cyber-humans alike.
