abstract: This thesis examines the play Qian Dayin zhichong Xie Tianxiang, written by the Yuan dynasty (1271-1368) playwright Guan Hanqing (c.1225-1302). The first chapter of this paper provides brief background information about northern style Yuan drama (zaju) as well as a plot summary and notes about the analysis and translation. Through a close reading of the play, I hope to illustrate how the play's complicated ending and lack of complete resolution reveals why it has received relatively little attention from scholars who have previously discussed other strong, intelligent female characters in Guan Hanqing's plays. The second chapter of this thesis includes translation of the play that is comprised of a wedge preceding the four acts. Before each act of the play is a critical introduction and analysis of the act to follow. Although many of Guan Hanqing's plays have been translated into English, this play has never been translated. / Dissertation/Thesis / M.A. Asian Languages and Civilizations 2011

abstract: A new arrangement of the Concerto for Two Horns in E-flat Major, Hob. VIId/6, attributed by some to Franz Joseph Haydn, is presented here. The arrangement reduces the orchestral portion to ten wind instruments, specifically a double wind quintet, to facilitate performance of the work. A full score and a complete set of parts are included. In support of this new arrangement, a discussion of the early treatment of horns in pairs and the subsequent development of the double horn concerto in the eighteenth century provides historical context for the Concerto for Two Horns in E-flat major. A summary of the controversy concerning the identity of the composer of this concerto is followed by a description of the content and structure of each of its three movements. Some comments on the procedures of the arrangement complete the background information. / Dissertation/Thesis / D.M.A. Music 2011

The Sound of the Prairie Land (Caoyuan Zhige) for viola and piano by the Chinese composer Qingwu Guan (b. 1938) has become one of the most popular works in the growing Chinese repertoire for viola. It also exists in another version for viola and viola ensemble, arranged by the Chinese violist Wing Ho, who also expanded the viola part with the composer's approval. The pentatonic work was highly influenced by the landscape and music of Inner Mongolia, a province of China next to the Mongolian border, and incorporates the music of an ode by the Inner Mongolian composer Alatengaole (1942–2011) called Sincere Wishes for a Long Life to Chairman Mao. Guan remains a strong supporter of Mao, the first chairman of the Chinese Communist Party. The work makes use of some performance techniques of the Inner Mongolian two-stringed fiddle called morin khuur, which has a similar tone to the viola: three kinds of slides, grace notes, imitations of a horse's neigh, and the representation of horses galloping across the prairie. The background of the work, understanding of the musical structure, and information about morin khuur techniques presented in this dissertation should aid performers in interpreting the work more authentically.

This dissertation is focus¡qCuo Zhan CuiNing¡r¡mShuang Xiong Meng¡n¡qPoXiaoShief¡rThose three story¡¦s text are used¡uShi Wu Guan¡v for subject matter, differentiate narrate model, personage molding and idea of theme three parts for base to discuss.And use a method of ¡§conclusion to collect¡¨ compare to analyse. In the same time, By way of this theme¡¦s to compare, let us to clarify some question in tradition and evolve. In the narrate model,¡qCuo Zhan CuiNing¡r¡mShuang Xiong Meng¡nuse overtop for outside field of vision in this story, but¡qPoXiaoShief¡rjust use Lao San¡¦s observe for this point of view. Besides¡qCuo Zhan CuiNing¡ruse different to mess in a narrator, let this theme pervade dense deliver a sermon implication. But ¡mShuang Xiong Meng¡nand¡qPoXiaoShief¡rare use the same narrator give rise sympathetic emotions, let two texts full more sympathetic.¡qPoXiaoShief¡r use flashback statement technique let story copious. Unique statement and slow statement step is the characteristic of this story. In the main from ¡qCuo Zhan CuiNing¡rto¡qPoXiaoShief¡r,the narrate model also from single to various. In the personage model,¡qCuo Zhan CuiNing¡rin personage model is major match the story plot, belong E.M. Forster mean¡uflat character¡v. Zhu Su Chen form looks and character to describe, mold role to different style, but he ignore the personage character, let¡mShuang Xiong Meng¡nthis story¡¦s personage describe to perfection, can not call perfect¡uround character¡v. Zhu Xi Ning major inherent to describe personage character. From E.M. Forster theory to view, ¡qPoXiaoShief¡r we can say almost ¡uround character¡v. Make a comprehensive to those three stories we can found from exterior describe change to inherent describe. In the subject thinking, ¡qCuo Zhan CuiNing¡r most clear to see is¡uspeak and act cautiously life philosophy¡v and¡utradition of retribution for sin¡v. Except an official related topic are three texts highlight.¡qPoXiaoShief¡rexcept had ¡uShi Wu Guan¡vstory, and enter into Lao San¡¦s plot, open another topic for concerned humanity, and the same time confer center of gravity from people face on environment to people this topic. This series of¡qCuo Zhan CuiNing¡r is the prototype of statement works, in the change course the theme thinking from reflect live actual state to concerned humanity and people.

The capture of these animals in the wild was with networking trap and kept in captivity in IBAMA headquarters until the day of the experiment when they were transported to the Veterinary Hospital. The animals were subjected to fasting from 2 to 6 hours before the procedure, the anesthesia, which was performed comisoflurano, instrumentation, and after isoflurane was placed on the target value of 1.3% in the first animal in each group, then waited about 15 minutes to perform the electrical stimulation stimulus, held Faradic form (3 consecutive simple stimuli, followed by 2 continuous stimuli), located on the left side of the pelvic member tibiotarsus face in the region, and the electrodes fixed with 22g needle at a distance of 5 cm between them. Conducted the stimulus, the bird response was observed, being positive (wing movements, head or vocalization) or negative to the stimulus (not report any movement of wings, head or vocalization) and registered after the CAM value of the animal. The animal being negative CAM next bird was reduced around 10%, being positive CAM was increased by about 10%. Statistical analysis was made by up and down and analisequantal for CAM and t test for paired t test or equivalent method for variances not equal variances for the physiological variables. At the end of the experiment the birds used foramreintroduzidas in the same area where they were captured. The MAC value of isoflurane in collective was de1,4% and individual birds CAM 1.9% to 0.903 atm, and being observed statistical difference between the two groups, noting as well that social stress and the captive environment where the birds will be allocated will have influences on the values of isoflurane MAC in guan (Penelope obscura) / Este projeto tem como objetivo geral determinar a CAM em jacu (Penelope obscura) e, como objetivos específicos verificar se há diferença no valor da CAM entre aves submetidas a níveis diferentes de estresse.Neste estudo foram utilizadas vinte e sete aves da espécie jacu (Penelope obscura) de vida livre, alocados em dois grupos: animais que permaneceram em grupo no mesmo recinto (coletivo); animais que permaneceram em gaiolas individuais (individuais).O projeto foi realizado na Sede do IBAMA de Painel SC e no Hospital de Clínica Veterinária da Universidade do Estado de Santa Catarina na cidade de Lages. A captura destes animais em vida livre foi com armadilha de rede e mantidas no cativeiro na Sede do IBAMA até o dia do experimento quando foram transportados para o Hospital Veterinário. Os animais foram submetidos a um jejum alimentar de 2 a 6 horas antes do procedimento, de indução anestésica, que foi realizada comisoflurano,para instrumentação, e após o isoflurano foi colocado no valor alvo 1,3% no primeiro animal de cada grupo, em seguida esperado aproximadamente 15 minutos para realizar o estímulo o estímulo elétrico, realizado de forma farádica (3 estímulos simples consecutivos, seguidos de 2 estímulos contínuos), localizado na face lateral do membro pélvico esquerdo na região do tibiotarso, e os eletrodos fixados com agulha 22g a uma distância de 5 centímetros entre elas. Realizado o estímulo, foi observado a resposta da ave, sendo positiva (movimentos de asas, cabeça ou vocalização) ou negativa ao estímulo (não apresentou movimentos de asas, cabeça ou vocalização) e após registrado o valor de CAM do animal. O animal sendo negativo a CAM da próxima ave foi reduzida em torno de 10%, sendo positivo a CAM foi aumentada em torno de 10%. A análise estatística foi feita pelo método up and down e analisequantal para a CAM e teste t de pareado para variâncias equivalentes ou teste t para variâncias não equivalentes para as variáveis fisiológicas. Ao final do experimento as aves utilizadas foramreintroduzidas na mesma área onde foram capturadas. O valor da CAM de isoflurano em coletivo foi de1,4%e nas aves individuais a CAM de 1,9 % a 0,903 atm, e sendo observado diferença estatística entre os dois grupos, observando assim que o estresse social e o ambiente de cativeiro onde as aves serão alocadas vão possuir influências sobre os valores da CAM do isoflurano em jacus (Penelope obscura)
