<p>This essay looks at the relation between identity, language and culture. The essay defines the three concepts and comes to the conclusion that these concepts are so closely related that they can not be described without each other. The theories used to define these concepts are culture studies, ethnolinguistics, translation studies and culture translation studies. The relation between identity, language and culture is viewed thru Eva Hoffman’s novel <em>Lost in Translation</em> which is Hoffman’s own story of moving from Poland to Canada as a child and how this shaped her identity. The essay focus on the complex process of how people living “in-between” cultures develop their identity.</p>

Cette thèse porte sur la construction de nouveaux exemples de surfaces minimales dérivées de la famille de surfaces de Costa-Hoffman-Meeks. Il s'agit d'une famille de surfaces minimales complètes plongées avec trois bouts et genre k > 0. Soit M_k la surface de Costa_Hoffman_Meeks de genre k. Dans le chapitre 1, j'ai démontré que M_k est non dégénérée pour k > 37. J'ai donc étendu les résultats de S. Nayatani qui assuraient que la surface M_k est non dégénérée seulement pour k=1,...,37. Ce résultat permet de montrer dans les chapitres 2 et 3 l'existence de nouveaux exemples de surfaces minimales de genre g arbitraire à l'aide d'une procédure de collage d'autres surfaces déjà connues (parmi lesquelles y figure la surface M_k). Sans ceci, ces résultats ne seraient valables que pour k < 38. En particulier dans le chapitre 2, j'ai démontré l'existence, dans H^2 x R, (H^2 étant le plan hyperbolique) d'une famille de surfaces minimales plongées inspirées de M_k, pour tout k > 0. Ce résultat peut être censé un cas particulier d'un théorème générale de désingularisation de l'intersection de deux surfaces minimales annoncé par N. Kapouleas et jamais publié. Le chapitre 3 est consacré à la construction de trois familles de surfaces minimales simplement périodiques plongées dans R^3 dont le quotient a genre arbitraire. Les résultats présentés dans ce chapitre (obtenus en collaborations avec L. Hauswirth et M. Rodríguez) généralisent plusieurs anciennes constructions

This project examines the presence and significance of ecofeminism and pedagogy within contemporary Young Adult literatures, particularly girls’ ecofantasy literatures. Specifically, I examine the role and representations of the female body in nature and any real or perceived connections between them. To accomplish this, I bring the theories of several feminist, ecofeminist, and environmental studies scholars together with my primary texts, Green Angel and Green Witch by Alice Hoffman, to examine the depiction of the female body in nature through interconnectedness and reciprocity between human and non-human nature, green transformations, and the archetype of the witch. / Includes bibliography. / Thesis (M.A.)--Florida Atlantic University, 2013.
