The interplay between exile-in-narration and narrators-in-exile in Salman Rushdie's Midnight's children, The Satanic Verses and The Moor's Last Sigh /

Pirbhai, Mariam. January 1998 (has links)
This thesis is an analysis of Salman Rushdie's Midnight's Children, The Satanic Verses and The Moor's Last Sigh. The approach is twofold: (a) it seeks to establish an interplay between the concept of exile-in-narration (theme) and narrators-in-exile (form) as a reflection upon questions of rootlessness; and (b) it seeks to underscore this interplay as a recurring 'double bind' within each novel, such that the novels form a loosely bound trilogy that functions as a developing discourse on individual and national identity from a decentred perspective. The aim is similarly twofold: (a) it proposes that the metaphor of exile as a polarized state manifests itself as either an unreflecting pull of opposites or as a thoughtful acceptance of the inter-connectedness between ideas, people, places and things; and (b) it argues that once this polarization becomes evident, it disturbs all static narratives of selfhood and community to the point at which they can be reconceptualized, and yet remain open-ended.

High speed network access to the last-mile using fixed broadband wireless

Fougias, Nikolaos 03 1900 (has links)
Approved for public release, distribution is unlimited / Despite the increase in the demand for high speed Internet services, the last-mile solutions currently available neither are inexpensive enough to attract the majority of the population, nor are they available in low density populated areas. This thesis examines Fixed Broadband Wireless (FBW) as an alternative technology to the current last-mile solutions. The analysis shows that LMDS and MMDS are the most promising emerging FBW technologies and that they are able, by utilizing microwave radio as their fundamental transport medium and using high modulation schemes, to provide digital two-way voice, data, video and Internet services. The thesis shows that both technologies are constrained by free space loss and line-of-sight impairments with rain absorption being the most significant cause of attenuation in the LMDS case, while vegetation and multipath fading play a significant role mostly in the MMDS case. Additionally, it is shown that there is a positive association between the data rate achieved and the level of influence due to Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN). Based on the analysis and using the coverage areas, the total capacity, the achieved data rates, the weather and line-of-sight limitations as well as the cost as the most important criteria, it is concluded that LMDS is a preferable solution for enterprise end-users in densely populated urban areas outside the reach of fiber networks, while MMDS targets residential end-users in rural or suburban areas that are not able to receive service through high-speed wireline connections. / Lieutenant Junior Grade, Hellenic Navy

Assosiasie en koördinasie van notasie met klawers by die ontwikkeling van 'n leesvermoë by die klavierbeginner

Hesse, Maria Elizabetha 30 November 2005 (has links)
The study substantiates common strategies and theories regarding the teaching of sight-reading. The literature study done on sight-reading at the keyboard consists of opinions and recommendations resulting from empirical findings of well-known piano pedagogues. Seven beginner courses were analysed in order to assess their presentation of a well-structured development of piano sight-reading against the opinions and recommendations of well-known piano pedagogues and authors in this field as well as the personal experience of the researcher. During this process it was discovered that insufficient attention was paid to the development of the association between a note symbol and its corresponding key on the piano. However no attention was paid to the act of playing while reading ahead. The researcher compiled additional progressive exercises for the 7 to 9 year old beginner, to address the above-mentioned discrepancies. The exercises and their individual purposes are clearly explained with instructions regarding their performance. / Hierdie studie bevestig algemene strategieë en teorieë aangaande die ontwikkeling van vaardighede om musieknotasie te lees en te speel. Die literatuur wat in hierdie studie bestudeer is, handel oor opinies en aanbevelings van vooraanstaande klavierpedagoë wat voortspruit uit die resultate van hulle empiriese navorsing. Sewe aanvangskursusse is ontleed en die aktiwiteite en metodes waarvolgens vaardighede onderrig word om musieknotasie te leer lees en speel, is gemeet aan die aanbevelings van vooraanstaande klavierpedagoë, navorsers op die gebied, asook die navorser se eie ervaring met die boeke. Gedurende die studie is daar ontdek dat daar meesal nie aandag geskenk word aan die ontwikkeling van 'n assosiasie tussen 'n toonhoogtesimbool en ooreenstemmende klawer op die klavier nie en glad nie aan die proses van vooruitlees nie. Om hierdie tekortkominge te oorkom het die navorser 'n stel aanvullende en progressiewe oefeninge saamgestel wat maklik genoeg uitvoerbaar is vir die 7- tot 9-jarige beginner. Duidelike beskrywings van die oefeninge, elkeen se spesifieke doel, en aanwysings vir effektiewe uitvoering daarvan word verskaf. / Art History, Visual Arts & Music / M.A. (Musicology)
