Perilous Pilgrimage: A Lady’s Flight into the Rocky Mountain WildernessKoerner, Jane 01 May 2010 (has links)
“Perilous Pilgrimage: A Lady’s Flight into the Rocky Mountain Wilderness” is comprised of four thematically linked essays set in the Colorado Rockies. In these essays I probe my fascination with masculinity at an early age, the impact of my rape at age twenty-two, the dependency and resentment that undermined my marriage after the rape, and my quest after my divorce fifteen years later to define myself on my own terms. The link joining these strands is the tension between my drive for independence and my disassociation from my mind and body as a result of the rape.
“Perilous Pilgrimage” revisits three pivotal stages of my life: childhood, young adulthood, and middle age. As a youngster vacationing with my family in Rocky Mountain National Park, I was drawn to men who rescued lost hikers and climbed mountains. Fred Bowen, the caretaker of our rented cabin in the park, and the two California school teachers who were the first to conquer the Diamond on Longs Peak, appeared to have more freedom than I did as a middle-class girl growing up in the 1950s. That conviction was reinforced after I moved to Colorado at age seventeen. Four years later I graduated from college and began dating a man who introduced me to the thrill and terror of mountaineering. After leading me up numerous mountains, he became my husband, and we made our home in Manitou Springs, Colorado. Once married, I could no longer repress the unresolved issues of my rape and identity quest, and I revolted. At age thirty-nine, I embarked on a solo quest to reclaim that sense of wonder and independence I had felt as a child exploring Rocky Mountain National Park. Included in my essays are references to historical figures with similar urges as mine, such as the 19th-century English explorer George Augustus Ruxton and English travel writer Isabella Bird. My search for refuge and redemption in the Colorado Rockies replicated a centuries-old pattern.

La réactualisation des collections fermées, études de cas : le Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, le Kettle's Yard Museum & Gallery et la New Art Gallery WalsallLebeau, Justine 10 1900 (has links) (PDF)
Ce mémoire fait l'analyse du phénomène de réactualisation des collections fermées et de ses stratégies en se basant sur trois études de cas : le Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, le Kettle's Yard Museum & Gallery et la New Art Gallery Walsall. Restreintes par des législations, ces institutions ont développé différentes stratégies leur permettant de réinscrire le contenu de leurs collections fermées à l'intérieur d'enjeux actuels. Dans un premier temps, de la présentation de nos trois études de cas sont apparues des caractéristiques que nous avons réunies pour exposer l'idée de collection fermée et souligner sa valeur esthétique, historique et artistique : les restrictions testamentaires, la vision du collectionneur, l'expérience du visiteur, le type d'accrochage et la mise en exposition des œuvres et des objets. Ces caractéristiques nous ont permis de cerner le contexte à l'intérieur duquel les conservateurs, les directeurs et les commissaires d'exposition interviennent pour réactualiser les paramètres temporels, narratifs et spatiaux de la collection fermée. L'idée de collection fermée est également développée à l'aide de propositions connexes provenant de 1'histoire de l'art et de la culture. Dans un deuxième temps, quatre des principales stratégies de réactualisation ont été dégagées de nos trois cas de figure : la construction d'une nouvelle architecture basée sur la collection fermée, la mise en place de programmes d'artistes en résidence, la création de programmes d'expositions temporaires et l'accumulation d'œuvres à l'intérieur d'une collection parallèle. Ces stratégies permettent une ouverture et une réorganisation des paramètres narratifs, spatiaux et temporels de la collection fermée à partir du présent actuel tout en respectant les restrictions protégeant son intégralité. L'analyse de ces stratégies permet non seulement de marquer les paramètres de la collection fermée sur lesquels la réactualisation s'opère, mais également de mettre en évidence les valeurs esthétiques et conceptuelles des projets d'artistes, architecturaux, d'exposition et de collection menés autour de la collection fermée. Dans un troisième temps, nous avons questionné la constitution et le fonctionnement temporel de la collection fermée et du phénomène de réactualisation pour pointer les changements qui s'opèrent dans le temps sur la collection fermée. De sa constitution par le collectionneur à sa relecture à partir des interventions du présent en passant par son legs restrictif, la collection fermée subit des changements malgré l'immobilité de sa mise en exposition. Enfin, notre recherche ouvre sur de nouvelles hypothèses. La réactualisation serait rendue possible à l'heure actuelle en relation avec une nouvelle conception de l'histoire basée sur une vision anachronique du temps. Cette vision anachronique et son potentiel pour la discipline de l'histoire de l'art développés par Georges Didi-Huberman (2000) nous ont permis d'explorer le phénomène de réactualisation non seulement dans la gestion muséologique des collections qu'il implique, mais également d'en traiter par rapport à la constitution de l'histoire de l'art et du rapport instauré avec le passé.

Cordoba and Jerez de la Frontera in the reign of Ferdinand and Isabella, 1474-1516 : a study of the relationship between the nobles and the townsEdwards, John Hamilton January 1976 (has links)
Córdoba and Jerez de la Frontera are situated in the north-eastern and south-western corners of the triangular delta of the Guadalquivir. They were reconquered and resettled by the Castilian Crown in the thirteenth century. During the period in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries which saw widespread alienation of lands by the Crown to nobles, to form lordships or señoríos, Córdoba and Jerez remained subject directly to the kings of Castile. Each town was governed by a council, consisting of jurados, who represented the individual parishes, and regidores, who from the fourteenth century formed a ruling oligarchy. The problem of proliferation of offices, beyond the legal number of twenty-four on both councils, faced the Catholic Monarchs at the beginning of their reign. Action was taken, particularly in Córdoba, where the situation was more extreme, to control office resignations and appointments, but officers continued to come from a small number of noble families. By their original charters (fueros), these towns also had magistrates, known as alcaldes mayores who represented the king in local affairs, but, from the early fifteenth century, new officials, known as corregidores, were superimposed on the old structure. These were appointed spasmodically to both towns in the period up to 1474. Town councils owned property on behalf of the Crown, consisting of buildings and grazing and arable lands. They also ruled outlying areas on behalf of the Crown which normally channelled its communications with these lesser towns and villages through the council of their chief town. The local councils also collected some royal taxes for their own use, though most were raised by the royal tax collector. Royal finances saw a spectacular improvement under Ferdinand and Isabella, but they continued to be weakened by the alienation of many revenues, in juro, for life or in perpetuity, to individuals, especially the territorial magnates of the kingdoms of Seville and Córdoba. This meant that it was possible for a magnate such as the duke of Medina Sidonia to gain an income comparable to that received by the Crown from the taxation of towns such as Córdoba and Jerez. The economy of western Andalusia was almost entirely agricultural. Most crops were produced for subsistence but grain and wine were exported from Jerez and district and wool from the Córdoba area. This wool was denied to the local cloth industry and exported from Seville by merchants from Burgos who came to Córdoba each year to buy owners' complete wool-crops in advance. The upper echelons of Córdoba society were heavily involved in this trade. The exploitation of tunny, which was the other main export commodity of the region, was in the hands of the upper nobility, particularly the dukes of Medina Sidonia and the counts of Arcos. The balance between the economic resources of the greatest magnates and the royal towns, such as Córdoba and Jerez, was also reflected in military affairs. The forces fielded in the Granada campaigns of 1482-92 show the strength in cavalry of the nobles to have been equal to that of royal towns, though the latter provided many more foot-soldiers. In political terms the problem which confronted Ferdinand and Isabella in their efforts to retain control over Córdoba and Jerez was to keep the local councils free of noble interference. This might be exercised through marriage alliances and links of feudal vassallage. The Catholic Monarchs in some respects pursued firm measures in order to reduce the power of the small number of magnates who had virtually gained complete control of the royal towns - the duke of Medina Sidonia in Seville, the marquis of Cádiz in Jerez and Don Alonso de Aguilar in Córdoba. These nobles retained their offices after Ferdinand and Isabella's visit to the region in 1477-8, but they were not allowed to exercise them. However, the fact that they still had a residual right to interfere in the government of royal towns posed a threat for the future. During the period between 1478 and 1500, corregidores succeeded one another peacefully as royal agents in contiol of Córdoba and Jerez, appointing their own officials and working in conjunction with the regidor. There were still noblemen from the twenty or so leading families of the kingdoms of Seville and Córdoba, but the most powerful figures were absent. However, after 1500 there was a resurgence of upper noble influence in Córdoba and Jerez. In the foriaer town, the marquis of Priego, son of Don Alonso de Aguilar, succeeded his father as alcalde mayor of Córdoba. Shortly before Isabella's death, in November 1504, the marquis appeared for the first time in a council-meeting. This action followed a period of severe grain-shortage which had begun in 1502 and continued until 1508. During this period, Córdoba council became indebted to nobles, including the marquis of Priego, for grain supplies from their señoríos, while these lasted, and for loans for the purchase and transport of foreign grain thereafter. Three episodes occurred in quick succession, between 1506 and 1508, in which the marquis of Priego and the count of Cabra took control of Córdoba as magistrates. The first two were caused by hitches in the re-appointment of corregidores, but in the third, the marquis crossed the border into revolt, imprisoning the king's alcalde. Ferdinand quelled the revolt by means of a military expedition which he conananded himself. The marquis and his henchmen, including rnany members of Córdoba council, were banished. Similarly severe action was taken by Ferdinand at this time to prevent the proposed marriage alliance between two of the leading Andalusian noble families, the Guzmán and the Girón. However, despite apparent royal severity towards the pretensions of leading nobles to return to their previous dominance in the area, illustrated by the Crown's successful exploitation of inheritance crises in the Ponce and Guzmán families in 1492 and 1502 to regain control of Cádiz and Gibraltar, respectively, there are distinct signs that in the early sixteenth century the monarchs were content to allow to the upper nobility a position in local society raore appropriate to their great wealth and traditional influence. Magnates returned to the governorship of royal fortresses, despite the protests of Córdoba council. The marquis and his henchmen were restored to this council in 1510 and even the armed invasion of Córdoba's town of Hornachuelos by the count of neighbouring Palma was tolerated. On the other side, it should be noted that the second attempt at a Guzmán - Girón marriage, in 1513, was thwarted by the Crown. The royal towns of western Andalusia, if Córdoba and Jerez may be taken as typical examples, emerged from the combined reigns of the Catholic Honarchs firmly in the grip of small ruling oligarchies, secure in the possession of effectively hereditary offices as regidores. Some of these office-holders were members of the wealthiest families in the region, others were not, but all had similar economic and political interests. The overall characteristics of society in this region in 1516 was immobility. No new families joined the ranks of the upper nobility in the kingdoms of Seville and Cordoba after 1492 and those already in a strong position found their wealth increased. However, this wealth showed itself in exploitation of the land and investment in government funds (juros) rather than trading activity. The leaders of Andalusian society at the beginning of the modern age were unenterprising and backward-looking, but their permanence had been guaranteed by the work of Ferdinand and Isabella.

Isabella Löwengrip – Det personliga varumärket : En kvalitativ fallstudie om hur Isabella Löwengrips personliga varumärke framställs genom hennes bloggLilja, Olivia January 2018 (has links)
Denna uppsats syftar till att undersöka hur Isabella Löwengrips personliga varumärke framställs på hennes blogg. De forskningsfrågor som forskningen utgick ifrån var ”hur framställs Isabella Löwengrips personliga varumärke på hennes blogg?” samt ”Går det att utläsa några skillnader i hur Löwengrip porträtterat sitt personliga varumärke från starten fram tills idag? I sådant fall: vilka är dessa skillnader?”. Studien genomfördes utifrån ett teoretiskt ramverk som omfattades av teorier om identitet, self presentation samt personligt varumärke. Arbetet genomfördes med ett kvalitativt angreppssätt, vilket mer specifikt utgjordes av en retorisk textanalys följt av en komparativ analys för att kunna besvara den andra frågeställningen. De resultat som framkom genom studien var bland annat att Löwengrip framställer sitt personliga varumärke i relation till sina andra varumärken, samt att hon har gett allt större utrymme till att skriva om sin karriär, något som hon inte gjorde vid bloggens start. Löwengrip framställer och underhåller främst sitt personliga varumärke med hjälp av ethosgrundade argument som bygger upp hennes trovärdighet, vilket verkar vara en av de viktigaste byggstenarna för ett lyckat personligt varumärke i bloggvärlden.

“VILKEN REAKTION VILL VI HA DENNA VECKA?” : En kvantitativ innehållsanalys och kritisk diskursanalys av Isabella Löwengrips gestaltning i morgon- och kvällspressFrennberg, Jenny January 2020 (has links)
I denna uppsats undersöks på vilket sätt Isabella Löwengrips blogg kan ha format hennes framställning i svenska dagstidningar. Syftet är att ta reda på hur samspelet mellan journalister och en influerare förhåller sig till varandra och hur det kan påverka innehållet. Isabella Löwengrips framställning gjorde ett betydande skifte när hon och hennes företag granskades hösten 2019 i Expressen (Sundkvist 2019), vilket för min del öppnade ett kritiskt kunskapsintresse kring diskursen om henne. Vilka roller har de beskrivit henne som? Hur framställs hon och vilket avtryck har hon lämnat? Dessa frågeställningar besvaras genom kvantitativ innehållsanalys och kritisk diskursanalys. Totalt undersöktes 72 artiklar i den kvantitativa delen varav tio artiklar valdes ut till den kritiska diskursanalysen. Resultatet visade att Isabella Löwengrip med hjälp av sin blogg format sin framställning både i morgonpress och kvällspress. Före granskningen framställdes hon som en framgångsrik kvinnlig entreprenör, medan efter granskningen framställdes hon som ensamstående kvinna som förlorat allt. Med tidigare forskning om kvinnliga entreprenörers framställning i media, av Ahl (2002) och Bjursell & Bäckvall (2011), förekom ideologiska normer i diskursen om Isabella Löwengrip som kan haft hämmande effekt på normaliseringen av kvinnliga entreprenörer.

Giudizi letterari di Isabella Teotochi Albrizzi nel carteggio inedito della Raccolta PiancastelliFonsato, Vanna Marisa January 1992 (has links)
The present work examines the literary criticism expressed by Isabella Teotochi Albrizzi in several of her unpublished letters. / The first part outlines the cultural and historical tradition of Venice during the Eighteenth Century. Particular attention is subsequently given to the intellectual role of women, their contribution to the literary salons of the time, and the neoclassical tradition. This first part is essential in that it supplies a valuable context to Isabella Teotochi Albrizzi's writings. / In the second part, I examine Isabella Teotochi Albrizzi's literary criticism of major European authors and works. Through these criticisms she exposes her misvision of the literary world to which she aspired, and reveals that although she was influenced by the subtle preromantic tendencies, she remained faithful to the neoclassical school.
