The purpose of this thesis is to determine the nature of Charles Lamb as revealed in his Elia essays. To this end, these essays form the major portion of the text. The general procedure for ascertaining what these excerpts indicate is as follows: first, the characteristics of Charles Lamb are determined from a study of the Elia essays; second, these characteristics are considered in relation to information derived from biographies. Careful attention is given to significant discrepancies between the essays and other sources.

(1952) o eixo central desta pesquisa, através da qual buscamos iluminar as relações entre cinema, cultura e política norte-americana dos anos cinqüenta, além de questionar como este cinema forma uma visão sobre o outro – nesse caso, os mexicanos. Produzido e lançado nos Estados Unidos em meio ao macartismo – oposição e perseguição aos comunistas, decorrente da Guerra Fria – é dirigido pelo cineasta Elia Kazan e tem como roteirista John Steinbeck, importante romancista norte-americano. Suas temáticas dialogam com a cultura e a política da época, os quais buscamos resgatar através deste estudo. Ainda, sendo um filme norte-americano sobre o México, nos possibilita questionar como este país e seu povo são representados – e ir além, analisando como se formam as visões dos outros no imaginário norte-americano, visão esta que se reflete através de manifestações culturais, como o cinema / The film Viva Zapata! (1952) is the central axis of the present study, through which we tried to highlight the relationships among North American cinema, culture and politics in the 1950s, as well as to question how this cinema forms the view about the other – in this case, the Mexicans. Produced and launched in the United States during McCarthyism – opposition and persecution to communists due to Cold War –, that film was directed by the filmmaker Elia Kazan and had as writer John Steinbeck, an important North American novelist. Its themes dialogue with the culture and the politics of that period, which we tried to rescue through this study. In addition, it is a North-American film about Mexico, which allows us to question how this country and its people are represented – as well as to analyze how the view about the others is formed in the North American imagination, since this view is reflected through cultural manifestations such as cinema

Η παρούσα διπλωματική ερευνητική εργασία μελετά τους παράγοντες που διαμορφώνουν την ποιότητα των υπόγειων νερών του νομού Ηλείας. Στην εργασία παρουσιάζονται τα αποτελέσματα που προέκυψαν από τις εργαστηριακές αναλύσεις 99 δειγμάτων νερού, που περιλαμβάνουν σημεία υδροληψίας από το μεγαλύτερο μέρος του νομού. Τα δείγματα αυτά συγκεντρώθηκαν στο πλαίσιο της τεχνικής έκθεσης με τίτλο «Έλεγχος της ποιότητας των υπόγειων νερών ύδρευσης των πλέον επιδεκτικών σε ρυπάνσεις πυρόπληκτων περιοχών του νομού Ηλείας» που ανέθεσε η Νομαρχία Ηλείας το 2008 στο εργαστήριο Υδρογεωλογίας, με επικεφαλής τον καθηγητή κ. Νικόλαο Λαμπράκη. Το γεωλογικό υπόβαθρο του νομού Ηλείας διαμορφώνεται από την Ιόνια ζώνη, τη ζώνη Ωλονού - Πίνδου, τη ζώνη Γαβρόβου Τρίπολης, Τριτογενείς γεωλογικούς σχηματισμούς και Τεταρτογενείς αποθέσεις. Στους Νεογενείς σχηματισμούς που εντοπίζονται και καλύπτουν το μεγαλύτερο μέρος του νομού, αναπτύσσονται υδροφόρα στρώματα που ταξινομούνται βάσει του προτύπου IAH/UNESKO του 1995. Οι σημαντικότεροι υδροφόροι ορίζοντες αναπτύσσονται στους σχηματισμούς Βούναργου και Χελιδονούς - Ολυμπίας, Καλαθά και στις ποτάμιες αναβαθμίδες Αλφειού και Ζαχάρως. Η περιοχή εμφανίζει έντονη τεκτονική με σημαντικότερες ρηξιγενείς ζώνες, τη ζώνη του Βούναργου, του Πράσινου, του Αλφειού και του Πελόπιου - Ολυμπίας. Με την επεξεργασία των φυσικοχημικών παραμέτρων των δειγμάτων στο πρόγραμμα Phreeqc 3.0 καταλήξαμε σε τρεις υδροχημικούς τύπους για τα νερά της Ηλείας. Επικρατεί ο τύπος Ca-HCO3 που φανερώνει φρέσκα νερά και κατανέμεται σχεδόν ομοιόμορφα στην περιοχή μελέτης. Ο τύπος Ca-HCO3-SO4 οφείλεται κυρίως στη διάλυση της γύψου των Νεογενών, στο κεντρικό τμήμα του νομού. Στον τύπο Ca-Na-HCO3 η ύπαρξη Νατρίου αποδίδεται σε διαδικασίες ιοανταλλαγής, παρουσία εβαποριτών της Ιόνιας ζώνης ή γειτνίαση με τη θάλασσα. Κανένα από τα παραπάνω στοιχεία δεν ξεπερνά ωστόσο τα όρια ποσιμότητας (Oδηγία 98/83/EC). Για τη στατιστική επεξεργασία των δεδομένων χρησιμοποιήθηκε R-τύπου παραγοντική ανάλυση, με τη βοήθεια του προγράμματος SPSS 17.0. Για τη χωρική κατανομή των παραγοντικών τιμών που προέκυψαν χρησιμοποιήθηκε η μέθοδος Ordinary kriging στο ArcMap 9.3. Επιλέχτηκε ένα τετραπλό παραγοντικό μοντέλο που εκφράζει το 75% της αρχικής πληροφορίας. Ο πρώτος παράγοντας συνδέει τη θερμοκρασία του υπόγειου νερού με το Λίθιο και το Βόριο και κατανέμεται στην ερύτερη περιοχή του Κατάκολου. Πρόκειται για μια γνωστή σχέση που ευνοείται από θερμομεταλλική κυκλοφορία υδάτων, έντονη τεκτονική, μεγάλους χρόνους παραμονής και βαθείς υδροφόρους. Ο δεύτερος παράγοντας συσχετίζει τον Σίδηρο και το Μαγγάνιο με αναγωγικά περιβάλλοντα στους υδροφόρους της περιοχής Αμαλιάδας - Πηνειού. Ο τρίτος παράγοντας απηχεί την αυξημένη συγκέντρωση Χρωμίου, Ουρανίου και Αρσενικού σε αναγωγικές συνθήκες, στο κεντρικό τμήμα του νομού. Τον τέταρτο παράγοντα αποτελεί το δυναμικό οξειδοαναγωγής που εμφανίζει αρνητικές τιμές στα αναγωγικά περιβάλλοντα και συνδυάζεται με τα αποτελέσματα του δεύτερου και του τρίτου παράγοντα. / The present master’s thesis examines and interprets the factors that influence the groundwater quality in Elia Prefecture, Peloponnese. Moreover it elaborates the results of the laboratory analysis of 99 water samples that have been collected in the frame of a technical assessment carried out in 2008 by the Hydrogeology Laboratory and its head professor Nikolaos Lamprakis. The assessment entitled “Drinking groundwater quality assessment of the most susceptible of contamination regions in Elia Perfecture that have been affected by fire” was assigned to the Hydrogeology Laboratory by the Regional Council of Elia. The geological background of Elia Prefecture is formed by the Ionian zone, the Olonos - Pindos zone and the Tripolis zone, as well as Tertiary formations and Quaternary alluvial. Inside the Neogene formations several water-bodies have been developed. These are classified according to the IAH/UNESCO standard of 1995. The most productive aquifers are those of Vounargon, Helidon - Olympia, Kalathas, Alfeios and Zacharo fluvial conglomerates. Intense tectonic activity occurs in the study area. The most important fault zones are those of Vounargon, Prasinon, Alfeios and Pelopion - Olympia. The physical and chemical parameters of the samples have been processed by Phreeqc 3.0 resulting in three hydrochemical types of groundwater in Elia. The prevailing type is Ca-HCO3 that indicates fresh water, which is evenly distributed over the study area. The dilution of the gypsum of the Neogene formations causes the Ca-HCO3-SO4 type to occur. The Potassium concentration in the Ca-Na-HCO3 type is attributed to ion-exchange processes, to the presence of evaporates or to the proximity of the aquifers to seawater. Nevertheless, the aforementioned concentrations were below the permissible limits (Directive 98/83/EC). The method used for the statistical analysis was R-type factor analysis that has been performed in SPSS 17.0. To acquire the spatial distribution maps of each factor Ordinary kriging interpolation method was used, in ArcMap 9.3. The statistical analysis resulted in a four-factor model that represents the 75% of the initial-values information. The first factor associates the groundwater-temperature to the presence of Lithium and Boron. It is the dominant factor over the area around Katakolo. It indicates a well-known relation which is a function of thermometallic water circulation, tectonic structures, long residence time and deep aquifers. The second factor expresses the relation of Iron and Manganese to reducing conditions in the aquifers of Amaliada and Pineia. Redox potential is the third factor. Its negative values point out reducing environments that are confirmed by the examination of the distribution maps of the second and third factor.

Multiple-criteria decision-making (MCDM) is a field of decision theory concerned with analyzing discrete sets of variables evaluated by multiple criteria. Facilitating decisions in such situations are several methods, among them a family known as ELECTRE. Using threshold values and the concept of outranking, they allow for improved modeling of the uncertain nature of real systems. This thesis sets out to describe all of the basic ELECTRE methods, as well as several of their modifications and further extensions and aims to do so with a sufficient level of detail and using precise mathematical language. It also presents key applications of said methods and reviews their implementation in software. Lastly, it introduces a brand new software, ELIA, developed as a part of the thesis. It allows users to solve practical problems using four of the basic ELECTRE methods.

Entretanto, cedo se notará, o foco de análise não se concentra apenas neste tema, mas também na própria constituição da relação historiográfica com o filme."Cinema e história" pode ser vista como uma metodologia de utilização de filmes para o estudo da história. Mas esta visão, no nosso entender, não dá conta da compreensão propriamente historiográfica que a "relação entre cinema e história" permite. Sendo assim, como não.. há, no nosso entender, uma subordinação entre um tema e a metodologia empregada, mas a tentativa de pensar inúmeras relações que envolvem o cinema e a história, não só nos indagamos sobre como Elia Kazan atribui sentido ao passado,mas por que historiadores se interessariam por isso, e como o estudo de filmes ilumina também o estudo do fazer historiográfico pensamento - do qual participei na França entre 1977 e 1981, como aluna dos seminários sobre "História e Cinema" de Marc Ferro e as críticas e mudanças que a própria história e o conhecimento histórico agregaram a esta discussão. Desta forma, optei por acrescentar, ao desenvolvimento do tema central - a história como elemento constituinte central do cinema de Elia Kazan-, a discussão sobre os fundamentos que conduziram a esta análise. / Abstract: Not informed. / Mestrado / Mestre em História

La présente étude se propose de donner une traduction abondamment annotée de la seconde série des essais d’Élia qui paraissent dans les revues périodiques anglaises, entre 1820 et 1833. Dans un souci d’exactitude, cette traduction restitue les passages supprimés par l’auteur avant leur parution sous forme de recueil. Une attention toute particulière a été portée sur les traductions en français de certains essais d’Élia publiés séparément dans les revues du milieu du dix-neuvième siècle et sur les traductions plus modernes des Essais d’Elia, réunis en recueil, jusqu’à l’époque présente. Les Last Essays of Elia sont la dernière œuvre publiée par Lamb. La tentation était grande de chercher une continuité depuis les premiers écrits jusqu’aux LEE. Dans l’introduction critique, nous nous sommes efforcé de voir les différents aspects de l’oeuvre de Lamb qui est à la fois poète, journaliste, dramaturge, critique de théâtre et épistolier et qui connaît la notoriété dans le genre de l’essai, genre auquel il donne un souffle nouveau, grâce à la persona d’Élia. Le fait que Lamb ait été l’ami des premiers poètes romantiques anglais de l’époque, le fait que sa vie ait été marquée et bouleversée par le meurtre de sa propre mère de la main de sa sœur bien-aimée, confèrent à son œuvre un vif intérêt. Personnalité inclassable du Romantisme anglais, dont il est une figure mineure, humoriste amoureux des livres et de la langue du passé, Lamb n’en reste pas moins un chaînon indispensable pour comprendre la scène littéraire anglaise du début du XIXe siècle. / The present study aims to provide a carefully annotated translation of the second series of the Essays of Elia which appeared in English periodical magazines between 1820 and 1833. In order to be as complete as possible, this translation includes the passages removed by the author when they were published in book form in 1833. Particular attention has been paid to French translations of individual Elia essays scattered in mid-nineteenth century French magazines as well as to more modern translations of the collected Essays, up to the present day. The Last Essays of Elia was Lamb’s final published work. It was very tempting to look for threads running through his work from the early writings to the LEE. In the critical introduction, we have sought to consider the various aspects of the work of Lamb, who was at the same time a poet, a journalist, a playwright, a theatre critic and a letter-writer before making his name as an essay-writer, breathing new life into the genre, thanks to the Elia persona. The fact that Lamb was a friend of the first English Romantic poets and that his life was blighted by his mother’s murder at the hands of his beloved sister, brings a vivid interest to his work. An isolated figure of Romanticism, a "very reasonable Romantic" himself, a humourist in love with the books and language of the past, Lamb, though a relatively minor author, remains a key link to understanding the early nineteenth-century English literary scene.
