Possessed by desire: A.S. Byatt's Possession and its location in postmodernismArthur, Susan Margaret 09 March 2009 (has links)
ABSTRACT
This research report explores A. S Byatt’s ambivalent relationship to postmodernism
through a critical engagement with two of her recent novels, Possession and The
Biographer’s Tale. Both use the techniques, while simultaneously constituting a
critique, of postmodernism. The novels challenge postmodernism, indicating Byatt’s
misgivings about the continuing suitability of this mode of literary representation.
Possession is examined in detail, while The Biographer’s Tale is used to provide a
backdrop to the discussion of Byatt’s viewpoints. Possession is a pastiche of styles,
incorporating some of Byatt’s favourite literary forms. Postmodernism allows this
experimentation but disregards qualities the author values highly, such as a
celebration of traditional literature and the emotional affectiveness of history.
Possession considers the positive and negative aspects of the literary movement. This
thesis examines Byatt’s negotiation with postmodernism and the contribution of her
critical attitude towards the success of Possession.

Försvarad demokrati? : -En analys av diskurserna kring FRA-lagens legitimering.Hellesen-Hansen, Alexander January 2016 (has links)
Försvarad demokrati är ett arbete som genom en diskursanalys tar sig en närmare titt på debatten år 2008 om en utökad FRA-lag med sikte på att kritiskt analysera hur partierna med hjälp utav olika diskurser behandlar och vrider begrepp för att få dem att överstämma med den egna idén om hur vi bör förhålla oss till hotet. Arbetet kommer också reflektera över hur vi i en allt mer flytande modern värld försöker gör det flytande och okända fast för att på så sätt få någon typ utav kontroll över det samhälle som vi skapat oss. Genom att belysa de politiska diskurserna kring hot och demokrati i debatten om en utökad FRA-lag bidrar arbetet till att skapa en förståelse kring hur människor i en demokrati med demokratiska ideal, så som integritet samt tryck- och yttrandefrihet, genom relationen till hot accepterar att bli systematiskt och storskaligt övervakade utav sin egen stat. Därav också övervakade av sin egen demokrati.

Aquaponics as a senior capstone design projectBuono, Edward Michael 07 November 2014 (has links)
This report is an exploration of using aquaponics as a means to create a senior capstone design project in a K-12 setting. The relevant world issues related to food production and resource scarcity, as well as the need to integrate STEM subjects in a more interconnected way, justify this project as robust in a high school setting. The report gives details on the design and construction of a backyard aquaponic system, along with a discussion of the performance of this actual system. This experience informs the design of a curriculum for a high school engineering classroom which is presented in outline form. / text

BingeHodge, Raegan Nicole 20 November 2008 (has links)
Binge is a multi-media installation consisting of dangling IV bags looming over a large table of food. Monitors on the table show live online chats about thinness, depression and eating disorders. On the rear wall, interview footage describing the gruesome experiences of the eating disorder sufferer intercut with the newest development of the disease, the online presence. The installation confronts the viewer with the horrible dualities of the disease: discipline and madness, reason and passion, and suffering and indulgence. The work references the philosophic mind/body struggle as well as the grim reality of these afflicted young women.
