Mapping Mark: Quantitative Study of Clause Thematization as a Means of Illuminating the Gospel GenreBrown, Nathan L. January 2020 (has links)
This project exhaustively examines the first element (theme) of each clause in Mark and in samples from other roughly contemporaneous Jewish writings. The comparative documents are divided into two categories, referential and non-referential narratives. Then statistical analyses (χ2 and t-test) are used to determine with which category of comparative documents Mark more closely aligns. The raw results of these hypothesis tests were equivocal, but their corresponding effect sizes (Cramer’s Vand Cohen’s d, respectively) clearly demonstrate that Mark more closely resembles referential narrative, although the difference is small. / Thesis / Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)

Should European Trade Mark Law Include an Explicit Parody Exception as a Limitation to Trade Mark Rights? : A focus on consumers of trade marks with reputationCarmona López, Marta January 2019 (has links)
This thesis seeks to determine whether or not the inclusion of an explicit parody exception would be beneficial for EU trade mark law. The thesis presents all the variables that need to be taken into account in the decision, putting a special emphasis in the importance of considering the negative effects that a hypothetical inclusion can have on the consumers of the parodied reputed trade marks as this variable has been widely disregarded among scholars. Moreover, in this thesis it is considered that an explicit inclusion of the parody exception in EU trade mark law might be recommended for cases of non-commercial expression and mixed expression but not for cases of merely commercial expression.

Quality control in trade mark licensing - a privilege or an obligation? : With a law and economic perspective it is examined how EU trade mark law deals with quality control within trade mark licensing.Lordh, Hanna January 2018 (has links)
Licensing agreements are commonly used when, for instance, exploiting new areas or countries. Trade mark licences are one such example. A trade mark licence gives the proprietor the opportunity to keep its exclusive rights at the same time as another party uses the trade mark in commercial purposes. When licensing an EUTM to a third party, it is possible to include quality control clauses in the agreement in order for the licensor to control that the licensee uses the trade mark correctly. The possibility to include quality control implies that there is no such obligation within EU trade mark law. Yet, in the US, quality control is not only a possibility but also an obligation in order to keep the trade mark registered. Therefore, it is of interest to examine European trade mark law in relation to quality control in licensing. The American view of quality control is examined for illustrative purposes. Within the EU, the essential function of an EUTM means the ability to identify the origin. In addition, one single undertaking is responsible for the quality that is needed for the trade mark to fulfil its essential role in the system of undistorted system. Quality is seen as an economic function of the trade mark and therefore it should not be an obligation to include quality control in trade mark licences. The proprietor should bear the responsibility him- or herself when not including quality control. As a contrast, in the US, the consumers must be protected from deception and therefore it is a requirement for the proprietor to control and maintain the quality by including quality control in trade mark licences. If a trade mark licence does not include quality controls, the licence is considered invalid and the trade mark is considered abandoned. Furthermore, a law and economics perspective is included in the thesis and specifically the theory of TCE and the belonging terms or bounded rationality, opportunism, uncertainty and trust. While the EU seems to value trust more when settling licence agreements, the US seems to value opportunism and uncertainty more due to de fact that consumers must be protected from the proprietors. Since quality control within trade mark licensing appears to lock the proprietor into a situation where it is difficult to differentiate and change the direction of the trade mark, it should not be an obligation to include quality controls in trade mark licences. It should be a privilege for the proprietor to decide on whether to use or not and bear the consequences of that choice.

Huck, Tom, and No. 44: the Tripartite TwainCrippen, Larry L. (Larry Lee) 12 1900 (has links)
In this study, I show that three major areas of Mark Twain's personality—conscience, ego, and nonconformist instincts—are represented, in part, respectively by three of his literary creations: Huckleberry Finn, Tom Sawyer, and No. 44. The origins of Twain's personality which possibly gave rise to his troubled conscience, need for attention, and rebellious spirit are examined. Also, Huck as Twain's social and personal conscience is explored, and similarities between Twain's and Tom's complex egos are demonstrated. No. 44 is featured as symbolic of Twain's iconoclastic, misanthropic, and solipsistic instincts, and the influence of Twain's later personal misfortunes on his creation of No. 44 is explored. In conclusion, I demonstrate the importance of Twain's creative escape and mediating ego in the coping of his personality with reality.

Silverkontaminerat slam, hur påverkas markens organismer? : En litteraturstudie kring silvrets toxiska effekt i mark.Modig, Amanda January 2016 (has links)
Bakgrund: Dagens användning av antibakteriellt silver i vardagsprodukter leder till att silverförorenat avlopp hamnar i reningsverken. Ett näringsrikt slam bildas i reningsverken och används som växtnäring på jordbruksland. Ett problem som kan uppstå är att silverföroreningarna ifrån slammet överförs till mark. Eftersom silver är känt för sina antibakteriella egenskaper så är syftet med denna studien att undersöka silvrets effekt på jord och marklevande organismer. Resultat: Den lägsta koncentrationen på 0,56 mg/kg silvret NM-300K hämmade nitritproduktionen i jorden med 16%. Silvernitrat hämmade den mikrobiella massa i jord med 50% efter 7 dygn. Vid lägre silverkoncentrationer på 0,19 mg/kg gynnades nitritproduktionen i mark istället. Antalet markbakterier sjönk i den silverkontaminerade marken i jämförelse med kontrollgruppen. En PVP täckt silvernanopartikel visade sig vara mer toxisk mot nitrifikations bakterier än en silver nanopartikel otäckt yta. Slutsats: Silver har visat sig vara toxisk mot mikroorganismer i mark, dock kan ingen gemensam toxisk koncentration fastställas för alla markorganismer då olika typer av nanosilver och silverföreningar har olika effekt beroende på vilken storlek, form, yta och vad de omvandlas till i naturen.

Metallexponering via fisk i förorenade områden : Kan vilt fångad fisk vara skadlig?Risenberg, Per-Ola January 2015 (has links)
Sveriges riksdag antog 1999 ett antal nationella miljökvalitetsmål, de så kallade Miljömålen. Dessa beskriver vad miljöarbetet ska leda till för tillstånd fram till år 2020. Det finns idag totalt 16 miljömål varav ett är Giftfri Miljö. Det är ett mål som inte kommer att kunna nås till år 2020, varken regionalt eller nationellt. Som en del av det regionala åtgärdsprogrammet i Kalmar Län finns punkten att utreda och åtgärda förorenade områden. I området Glasriket finns en mängd sjöar och vattendrag att fiska i men under en lång tid bedrevs även miljöpåverkande verksamheter i form av glastillverkning med stora utsläpp av tungmetallerna arsenik (As), bly (Pb) och kadmium (Cd) med fler som följd. En exponeringskälla för att komma i kontakter med dessa ämnen är fisk. I arbetet har en litteraturstudie utförts som avhandlat ansamling av metaller i fiskvävnad från förorenade områden. Dessa har sedan jämförts med sediments- och vattenprover från Glasriket. Framför allt området runt Orrefors och Flygsfors glasbruk visar på höga halter av föroreningar. Fyra gäddor fångade i en damm nära Flygsfors glasbruk undersöktes på lab med avseende på halterna As, Cd och Pb i de ätliga delarna av fisken. Provsvaren visade att två av gäddorna ej nådde detektionsgränsen för metallerna medan två visade på förhöjda halter av As och Pb där halten As översteg gränsvärden för dagligt intag. Konsumtion av fisk i området är ej undersökt i studien. En nationell enkät visade att strax under 2 % av befolkningen är högkonsumenter (äter en gång per vecka eller mer) av insjöfisk medan man i Kalmar län hade en högre konsumtion på 2-3 %. Hur mycket fisk som fångas i området är oklart. I Orrefors Fiskevårdsförening där gäddorna i studien fångades sålde man 450 fiskekort 2014. Exponeringsberäkningen för fisken i studien visar att en person kan få i sig betydande halter arsenik och mindre halter bly.
