Abstract:
The introduction of species outside of their native ranges has been extensively studied in ecology. Particular attention has been paid to examining interactions between alien and native plants, and a large proportion of this attention has focused on pollinator-mediated interactions. In order to interact through pollinators, plants must co-occur, coflower, and share pollinators; studies investigating pollinator-mediated interactions between alien and native plants frequently make fundamental assumptions about the definition of these prerequisites to pollinator-mediated interaction.

This thesis will examine seven plays by David Hare, which together constitute a social history of Britain since the Second World War. Hare's main project is to demonstrate to the members of his audience, most of whom will be "middle class", that they are psychologically damaged by the capitalist-patriarchal system. The ideological fictions which have evolved to justify the existing structure of society and to discourage the oppressed from challenging that structure create psychological contradictions which cannot be resolved without radical social change.

Language is a central concern of science fiction. From first contact to interstellar warfare, stories about aliens inevitably raise questions of communication.

This work argues that Scheler’s phenomenology has the resources to overcome the problem of understanding one of a foreign ethos (i.e., alien) as alien. It does so in three stages. After the introduction, the second chapter provides an exposition of the key intentional structures and horizons to Scheler’s “emotive sphere” or “order of the heart” (ordo amoris). This provides a general orientation into the role emotions have in to our cognitive life. The third chapter sets the stage for the fourth through an analysis of how the person is given to me, with an eye towards their ordo amoris. The fou

Through these texts I investigate how the generic condition of speculative fiction (SF), in its claims to unreality, opens up an imaginative space in which to excavate hybridity as a site of tension between the concepts of race and species. I draw on the theoretical constructs of hybridity and posthumanism, particularly as formulated by Robert Young in the first case and Cary Wolfe in the second, to argue that these c

The invasion of alien plants into natural ecosystems is a widespread phenomenon that impacts negatively on ecosystem structure and functioning. The invasion and subsequent spread of an alien plant population is equivalent to the processes of colonisation and migration. This implies that the existing toolbox of techniques developed for plant succession research should be useful for predicting plant invasions. Practitioners of invasion biology . have, however, found biological invasions frustratingly difficult to predict. The aim of this thesis was to use succession models to develop a modelling
