IDEAS: The central locus of my work is a place of indeterminacy between what is known/familiar and what is just one step outside of that. This has nothing to do with mysticism, science fiction, or anything else unmoored from established fact.

113	Le lien entre le stress parental du père et le développement de la relation d’activation chez les enfants âgés entre 12 et 18 mois Moffette, Valérie 11 1900 (has links) De nos jours, le père est de plus en plus présent dans le quotidien de son enfant. Par son implication et son engagement, le père dans le développement de l’enfant a un rôle important et unique. Sa contribution se ferait entre autre par rapport à l’ouverture au monde en encourageant l’enfant à prendre des risques. Comme être mère, être père c’est de faire face à un ensemble de situations nouvelles quotidiennes, de vivre des déséquilibres et de l’imprévisibilité et de ne pas toujours être en contrôle des évènements qui se produisent. Ainsi, exercer ce rôle peut entraîner un certain niveau de stress qui peut influencer le développement de l’enfant. La présente étude vise à examiner l’existence d’un lien entre le stress parental du père et la relation d’activation chez les enfants âgés entre 12 et 18 mois ainsi que l’attachement père-enfant. Des données ont été recueillies auprès de 58 pères et leur enfant âgé entre 12 et 18 mois. Les résultats montrent que le stress parental n’est pas significativement lié à la relation d’activation ni à l’attachement père-enfant. De plus, le sexe de l’enfant ne modère pas ce lien. On note que le sexe de l’enfant est corrélé à la relation d’activation, c’est-à-dire que les garçons sont plus activés positivement que les filles. / Nowadays, the father is increasingly present in everyday life of his child. By his commitment and involvement, the father has an important and unique role in the child’s development. His contribution would be related to the child openness to the outside world and in encouragements to take risks. As with being a mother, being a father involve coping with a lot of new situations every day, living with imbalances and unpredictability and not being always in control of many given situations. So, exercising this role can cause a certain level of stress which can influence the development of the child. The aim of the present study is to examine the existence of a link between fathers’ parental stress and activation relationship of their 12 to 18 months-old children, as well as the father-child attachment relationship. Data were collected among 58 father-child dyads. The results show that parental stress is neither significantly associated to activation relationship nor to attachment relationship. Moreover, the child’s gender does not act as a moderator in this relationship. However, it appears that the child’s gender is correlated with activation relationship. The results show that boys are activated more positively than girls. stress parental relation d'activation attachement père-enfant développement de l'enfant 12-18 mois pères attachement situation étrangère situation risquée parental stress activation relationship father-child attachment child development 12-18 months old fathers attachment strange situation risky situation

115	The age of the screen : subjectivity in twenty-first century literature Rae, Allan January 2015 (has links) The screen, as recent studies in a number of fields indicate, is a cultural object due for critical reappraisal. Work on the theoretical status of screen objects tends to focus upon the materialisation of surface; in other words, it attempts to rethink the relationship between the supposedly 'superficial' facade and the 'functional' object itself. I suggest that this work, while usefully chipping away at the dichotomy between the 'superficial' and the 'functional', can lead us to a more radical conclusion when read in the context of subjectivity. By rethinking the relationship between the surface and the obverse face of the screen as the terms of a dialectic, we can ‘read’ the screen as the vital component in a process which constitutes the Subject. In order to demonstrate this, I analyse productions of subjectivity in literary texts of the twenty-first century — in doing so, I assume the novel as nonpareil arena of the dramatisation of subjectivity — and I propose a reading of the work of Jacques Lacan as hitherto unacknowledged theorist par excellence of the form and function of the screen. Lacan describes, with the function of desire and the formation of the screen of fantasy, the primary position this ‘screen-form' inhabits in the constitution of the Subject. Lacan’s work forms a critical juncture through which we must proceed if we are to properly read and understand the chosen texts: The Book of Strange New Things by Michel Faber; The Tain by China Miéville; Oryx and Crake by Margaret Atwood; and Austerlitz by W.G. Sebald. In each text, I analyse the particular materialisations of the screen and interrogate the constitution of the subject and the locus of desire. By analysing the vicissitudes of subjectivity in these texts, I make a claim for the study of the screen as constituting a central question in the field of contemporary literature.
116	L'etranger dans quelques romans égyptiens / The stranger in some Egyptians novels Dghim, Chiheb 16 January 2013 (has links) L’étude de l’espace et des personnages dans quelques romans égyptiens met en évidence toute l’importance et la complexité que revêt le rapport à l’étranger et la manière dont personnages et spatialité s’imbriquent pour donner sens aux diverses représentations que le personnage arabe se fait de sa société et de l’Autre. Le personnage oriental - auteur, personnage-narrateur ou personnage fictif - est au coeur de ce conflit : il est face à l’Autre et à lui-même, face à deux types de femmes, l’une occidentale et l’autre orientale, face à deux sociétés, l’une archaïque et l’autre moderne, et face à deux espaces, l’un étrange et l’autre familier. / The study of the space and the characters in some Egyptians novels highlight all the importance and complexity of the report to the other and how characters and spatiality fit to give meaning to the various representations that the Arab character made of the Occident. The oriental character - author, Narrator character or fictional character - is at the heart of this conflict: facing to himself and to the stranger, facing two types of women, one western and other oriental, facing two societies, one archaic and the other modern and, in the end facing with two spaces, one stranger and the other familiar.

118	En aning om ett sällsamt universum : En undersökning av C.J.L. Almqvists ”poetiska fuga” Jägerfeld, Caroline January 2020 (has links) ABSTRACT And concrete diction Carl Jonas Love Almqvist’s Drottningens juvelsmycke (The Queen's Tiara; 1834) is, along with Amorina, the work primarily associated with the ”poetic fugue” – a concept the author develops in ”Om enheten av epism och dramatism; en aning om den poetiska fugan” (”On the unity of epism and dramatism; a notion of the poetic fugue”; 1821); an essay often considered vague and theoretical by researchers in the field. The meaning of the poetic fugue has been regarded unclear, but mainly considered as some kind of synthesis of epic and dramatic writing. This essay argues that that is not the case, and that this one-dimensional approach both limits the interpretations of the essay and the poetic fugue as a whole. From a multidisciplinary perspective, with myself and my own reader as a part of the fugue itself, the aim of this essay is to highlight a very important overseen aspect of the poetic fugue, and Almqvist’s writing in general – the connections to mathematics, the analogies between abstract and concrete levels, and how these are deeply intertwined. The results in this essay are derived from a close reading technique based on mathematical problem solving called the ideotic method (den ideotiska metoden), and analyzed with Douglas Hofstadter's theory of Strange loops in Gödel, Escher, Bach – an eternal golden braid (1979). This analysis shows that this analogy is not just about the composition of a poetic piece of art, a synthesis of epic and dramatic writing, or the relation between music and text. Instead the results do point to an alternative interdisciplinary interpretation, where the relations between parts and units, realities and fictions, readers and texts, make the poetic fugue more of an analogy for the universe as a whole – a living and breathing ”animal coeleste” in contrast to the Newtonian ”mechanical coeleste”. An analogy which, thanks to its mathematical construction and way of looking at time as non-linear, is connected to both Einstein’s theory of relativity and quantum theory – the science of the very big and the very small, parts and units, of everything, including ourselves.

119	La différence de tempérament entre les catégories d’attachement et les sous-catégories d’attachement mère-enfant et père-enfant à partir de la situation étrangère chez les trottineurs Giguère, Valérie 05 1900 (has links) L’attachement parent-enfant et le tempérament sont deux concepts fondamentaux dans le développement de l’enfant, car ils sont impliqués dans le développement de ses capacités de socialisation et de régulation émotionnelle. Cependant, le lien entre l’attachement et le tempérament est encore mal compris. La présente recherche évalue s’il y a un lien entre les catégorie d’attachement (A, B, C, D) ainsi que les sous-catégories d’attachement mère-enfant (A, B1, B2, B3, B4, C et D) et père-enfant (A1, A2, B1, B2, B3, B4, C1 et D) et le tempérament (affect négatif, extraversion et autocontrôle) chez les trottineurs (12-30 mois). Les données proviennent du premier temps de mesure du projet de recherche Complémentarité des relations d’attachement père-enfant et mère-enfant : une approche systémique de la famille pour mieux comprendre le développement des enfants d’âge préscolaire (CRA). L’échantillon comprend des familles composées de la mère (n=174), du père (n=173) et de leur enfant. L’attachement mère-enfant et père-enfant a été mesuré à un mois d’intervalle à l’aide de la Situation étrangère de Ainsworth à 12-18 mois. Le tempérament a été mesuré par le questionnaire de Rothbart «Early Child Beavior Questionnaire - Short Form» rempli par la mère et le père à 24-30 mois. Aucun des tests de différence de moyenne ne sont significatifs. Cela indique que les enfants des différentes catégories et sous-catégories d’attachement mère-enfant et père-enfant ne diffèrent pas quant à leur niveau d’affect négatif, l’extraversion et d’autocontrôle. / Parent-child attachment and temperament are two fundamental concepts in child development, because they are involved in the development of both socialization and emotional regulation capacity. However, the connection between those two concepts is still misunderstood. The foregoing research assesses whether there is a connection between mother-child and fatherchild attachment (A, B, C, D), mother-child sub-categories (A, B1, B2, B3, B4, C and D) and father-child sub-categories (A1, A2, B1, B2, B3, B4, C and D) with the temperament (negative affect, surgency and effortful control) of 12-18 month-old toddlers. Data come from the first measurement time in the Complémentarité des relations d’attachement père-enfant et mèreenfant : une approche systémique de la famille pour mieux comprendre le développement des enfants d’âge préscolaire (CRA) research project. The sample is made of families with the mother (n=174) the father (n=173) and their child. The attachment was measured with the Ainsworth Strange Situation at 12-18 month and the temperament was measured by the mothers’ and the fathers’ answers to the Rothbart questionnaire « Early Child Behavior Questionnaire - Short Form » when the child was 24-30 month old. The two MANCOVAS models are not significant. Results indicate that there is no difference between children of either attachment category and sub-category as to toddlers’ negative affect, surgency and effortful control. attachement mère-enfant attachement père-enfant trottineur sous-catégories d’attachement tempérament affect négatif extraversion autocontrôle Situation étrangère mother-child attachment father-child attachment toddler attachment sub-categories negative affect surgency effortful control Strange Situation
120	Thank You Parts I and II Hensley, Dylan 12 1900 (has links) "Thank You" Parts I and II is an experiment that attempts to break new ground in the field of anthropological cinema through the reflexive methodology and experience of myself. My establishment of a new theoretical film approach called meta-anthrochaomediacy and its evolution into radical autoethnographic mediation is explored throughout this thesis. I exercised my theory by producing and documenting a reflexive experience built on fostering emotional bonds and social relationships that provided interactivity and choice within an environment as a process of mediation for anthropological study. Part I features a physical installation I designed that exercised the transmission of memories shared with my familial table. Twelve individuals voluntarily experienced this process across 4 sessions in a single day where they interacted with the table, each other, and the memories of places that the table has lived in. The installation was primarily recorded with a 360 camera and subsequently established as qualitative data, as per my theoretical process, to be edited into a film object. Part II is a 58-minute multi-split-screen film that features my theoretical process in action as it expresses the crafting of emerging-in-real-time short term cultures through layers of reflexivity. I edited this film to test my theory towards exemplifying my film and process as anthropological cinema. reflexive anthropological cinema thesis radical mediation hypermediacy meta-anthrochaomediacy radical autoethnographic mediation table projector installation identity touchdesigner generative music lydian mode ludic phronesis memory subidentity culture visual anthropology cultural anthropology ethnography digital media life is strange Cinema Anthropology, Cultural Fine Arts
