This dissertation presents, for the first time, a freestanding account of notions of time and temporality as seen in the visual arts of the late Archaic and Classical Greece and contextualizes it within the larger cultural history of time. There is a growing consensus among scholars regarding a societal shift in fifth-century Greek attitudes towards time, from the authority of the past to the uncertainties and the immediacy of the present. This dissertation explores such changing notions of time in the visual tradition in four different ways: firstly through the personification of the key notion of kairos, which embodies on many levels the manifestation of this new temporality; secondly by investigating the emergent interest of the "historical present" in the artistic subject matter of the so-called Historienbilder; thirdly through a detailed investigation of new pictorial strategies in Greek vase painting that carry specific temporal attributes, by focusing on the motifs of jumping, lifting and dropping; and lastly, by dissecting the anatomy of the popular motif of "erotic pursuits" in vase painting, which embodies the sensory nature of this new temporality that hinges upon the notion of suspense and delay. These investigations employ a new phenomenological framework that centers on the "embodied viewer", connecting the temporality as understood by the viewer with that which is portrayed in the object, bringing together the visible temporality in art and the experienced temporality of the society, which the viewer inhabits. This framework is first sketched out by offering a phenomenological reading of a full 3-D digital reconstruction of the Lysippan Kairos. Such changes in the notion of time in the visual arts, seen as early as the late sixth century BCE and fully manifest in the Classical period, is also put into relief by a brief examination of analogous literary techniques, with a focus on the case of Aeschylus.

Esta pesquisa investigou microfósseis neoproterozoicos em forma de vaso (\"vase-shaped microfossils - VSMs\") da Formação Urucum (Grupo Jacadigo) e Formação Bocaina (Grupo Corumbá), ambas inseridas na Faixa Paraguai Sul, Brasil. Estes microfósseis foram comparados a outras ocorrências neoproterozoicas no mundo. O objetivo foi contribuir com o conhecimento de aspectos paleobiológicos, evolutivos e bioestratigráficos relacionados ao aparecimento de eucariontes unicelulares tecados em ecossistemas anteriores ao surgimento dos metazoários. Os VSMs podem ser atribuídos a quitinozoários, tintinídeos e foraminíferos, porém, características diagnósticas importantes apontam o grupo Amoebozoa como afinidade biológica mais próxima. A variedade morfológica e composicional observada em VSMs neoproterozoicos, inclusive nos exemplares brasileiros, documenta a mais antiga diversificação da vida unicelular eucariótica, presumivelmente heterotrófica, preservada no registro geológico. As diferentes fácies sedimentares contendo VSMs fornecem informações valiosas sobre fatores ambientais que podem ter sido importantes na diversificação bem como no seu possível desaparecimento entre o Neoproterozoico e o Mesozoico. Além disso, a ampla distribuição e variedade desses microfósseis sugerem uma possível aplicação bioestratigráfica. Microscopia petrográfica (MP) e Eletrônica de Varredura (MEV), Espectrometria de Energia Dispersiva de Raios X (EDS), Microscopia Confocal (MC), Espectroscopia Raman (ER), Catodoluminescência (CL) além de técnicas geoquímicas e geocronológicas foram aplicadas para caracterizar a composição e morfologia dos microfósseis, bem como para a rocha encaixante, visando inferir a natureza e paleoecologia dos organismos responsáveis pelas produção das tecas e o ambiente em que viveram, se diversificaram e desapareceram. / This research investigated vase-shaped microfossils (VSMs) from the Urucum Formation (Jacadigo Group) and Bocaina Formation (Corumbá Group), both inserted in the Southern Paraguay Fold Belt, Brazil. These microfossils were compared to other neoproterozoic occurrences in the world. The aim was to contribute to the knowledge of paleobiological, evolutionary and biostratigraphic aspects related to the appearance of unicellular eukaryotes in the ecosystems that preceed the appearance of metazoans. VSMs can be attributed to quitinozoan, tintinids and foraminifera, but important diagnostic features point to the Amoebozoa group as the closest biological affinity. The morphological and compositional variety observed in neoproterozoic VSMs, including Brazilian specimens, documents the earliest diversification of eukaryotic unicellular life, presumably heterotrophic, preserved in the geological record. The different sedimentary facies containing VSMs provide valuable information about environmental factors that may have been important in the diversification as well as their possible disappearance between the Neoproterozoic to the Mesozoic. In addition, the wide distribution and variety of these microfossils suggest a possible biostratigraphic application. Petrography, Scanning electron microscopy, Confocal microscopy, Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, Cathodoluminescense, besides geochemical and geochronological techniques, were applied to characterize the composition and morphology of the microfossils, as well as for the host rock, in order to infer the nature and paleoecology of the organisms responsible for the production of the test and the environment in which they lived, diversified and probably disappeared

L'objectif premier de cette recherche, réalisée dans le cadre du génie civil, est de modéliser les processus sédimentaires verticaux (dépôt, tassement, et érosion), faisant partie de la dynamique sédimentaire des vases dans les estuaires.<br />Afin de parvenir à ce but, trois démarches différentes sont suivies :<br />- Analyse des modèles couramment utilisés en sédimentologie.<br />- Adaptation aux problèmes sédimentaires des modèles utilisés dans d'autres disciplines.<br />- Proposition de nouveaux modèles.<br />Les modèles proposés tiennent compte des actions mécaniques et des propriétés caractéristiques des vases. Les différentes propriétés de la vase sont reliées à la concentration et à la température par des lois simples utilisant un maximum de trois paramètres, ce qui facilite une modélisation hydrosédimentaire à paramètres multiples.<br />D'une manière générale, les modèles sont ajustés pour la vase de l'estuaire de la Loire. Cependant, ils sont applicables à d'autres sites, aux valeurs des paramètres près.<br />Un modèle général de tassement satisfaisant les principes issus de la mécanique de sols est développé; le tassement par sédimentation des suspensions est simulé comme un cas particulier en absence de contraintes effectives.<br />Un modèle iso-concentration multicouches pour la dynamique verticale des dépôts de vase est formulé. Ce modèle permet de détecter la concentration au-dessus de laquelle la vase s'accumule dans le fond pour former la crème de vase.<br />Enfin, des essais rhéométriques réalisés sur une vase de l'estuaire de la Loire mettent en évidence l'influence de la température sur sa rigidité initiale, laquelle conditionne l'érosion.<br />Cette synthèse des différentes modélisations hydrosédimentaires nous a permis la construction d'un modèle numérique unidimensionnel de l'ensemble de l'estuaire de la Loire.

<p>This paper deals with ancient Greek music, and in particular the relation of people to music during the fifth century BC in Athens. Music is believed to exercise great power over the human character and behavior, and at the same time is a means of emotional communication. For the first time during the fifth century, the power of music leaves the realm of the myths and becomes a subject of philosophical investigation. Two different types of sources are examined in order to study the relation of people to music: on the one hand the literary sources of this period,  and on the other the vase paintings. This method reveals various attitudes towards music by using two different perspectives. Possible explanations are given for the differing information, the purpose of each source being a decisive factor.</p><p>The paper suggests that although the information from the two types of sources varies and can even be contradictive, the recognition of the power music exercises is obvious in both cases .</p>

Im Rahmen dieser Diplomarbeit wurde eine Ultrahochvakuumanlage für organische Molekularstrahldeposition (OMBD) konzipiert und gefertigt, die das Aufwachsen von einzelnen organischen Schichten bis hin zu komplexen Schichtsystemen auf geeigneten Substraten erlaubt. Mit einem ebenfalls konzipierten und gefertigten Probenhalter, sind elektrische Messungen in situ möglich. Für weitere Charakterisierungsmethoden, wie der spektroskopischen Ellipsometrie und der Reflexions-Anisotropie-Spektroskopie sind ebenfalls Optionen für in-situ-Messungen an der UHV-Anlage vorgesehen. Mit dieser Anlage wurden einzelne organische Schichten von Zinkphthalocyanin (ZnPc), Fulleren C60 und Bathocuproin (BCP) hergestellt, die anschließend mit spektroskopischer Ellipsometrie ex situ untersucht wurden. Mit der Herstellung organischer Solarzellen, auf Basis der zuvor hergestellten organischen Einzelschichten, konnte gezeigt werden, dass mit der UHV-Anlage komplexe organische Schichtsysteme erzeugt werden können, an denen in-situ-elektrische Messungen durchführbar sind. / Within the scope of this diploma thesis, a ultra high vacuum chamber for organic molecular beam deposition (OMBD) was designed and built, which allows the growth of single organic layers and complex composit layer structures. With an also designed and built sample holder, it is possible to make in situ electrical measurements. Single organic layers of zinc-phthalocyanine (ZnPc), fullerene C60 and bathocuproine (BCP) were deposited inside this chamber and characterized ex situ by spectroscopic ellipsometry. The preparation of an organic photovoltaic (OPV) cell based on the before characterized single layers, demonstrates that it is possible to deposit complex layer structures and characterize them electrical in situ.
