Le film est un média qui a échappé trop longtemps au corpus de l'historien. Ce mémoire est un effort pour démontrer que le film, soigneusement analysé selon des grilles et outils qui peuvent être empruntés à d'autres disciplines, est un média qui permet de rejoindre le plus grand nombre possible de personnes. Nous avons étudié les représentations filmiques se rapportant à quatre chercheurs ou événements de l'histoire biomédicale au Canada, soit Hans Selye, Norman Bethune, Armand Frappier et la découverte de l'insuline par Frederick Banting et Charles Best. Les questions de la vulgarisation de l'histoire et du mythe de la science y sont centrales. Il en ressort que les chercheurs étudiés, des figures publiques, sont représentés au cinéma selon des stéréotypes bien précis, issus de moules souvent répétitifs, qui fait la promotion de la discipline biomédicale.

Full textAbstract:
Jembrana disease is an acute and severe disease of Bali cattle (Bos javanicus) endemic in Indonesia that is caused by a bovine lentivirus designated Jembrana disease virus (JDV). Previous studies have demonstrated that it is possible to induce a protective immunity against the disease by immunisation with a crude whole virus vaccine prepared from the tissues of infected cattle. This vaccine has been demonstrated to ameliorate the clinical signs of disease resulting from exposure to virus infection but a safer vaccine amenable to commercial production techniques is required.
JDV, like all lentiviruses, encodes a transcriptional trans-activator Tat protein that is encoded from one or both of two exons of the tat gene. Tat is particularly essential for virus replication and it was hypothesised that the induction of an immune response in cattle against JDV Tat may effect protection against virus infection. Investigations were therefore conducted on JDV Tat to provide basic information on the protein that would enable it to be further investigated as a potential immunogen for incorporation into vaccines for the control of Jembrana disease.
Analysis of tat transcripts obtained from tissues of cattle infected with three strains of JDV suggested that, during the acute clinical disease, Tat produced at this stage of the disease process was translated from the first coding exon only. Nucleotide variation in this exon, which would have translated into amino acid variations in the Tat protein, was evident especially between strains from geographically different regions of Indonesia. There was; however, conservation of the essential functional domains of cysteine-rich, core and basic regions, which suggested immunity to a single Tat protein might protect against infection by heterologous strains. Subsequent studies on Tat reported in the thesis therefore concentrated on the protein encoded by tat exon 1 of a single strain of JDV. The exon 1 of tat was cloned into the pGEX vector and recombinant Tat expressed in Escherichia coli. Methods for the purification of the expressed protein were developed. Immunogenicity of the recombinant protein was initially demonstrated by inoculation of the protein into a sheep which developed a high titred specific antibody response. Antibodies induced by this recombinant protein recognised native Tat proteins produced by three JDV strains in Bali cattle and provided a valuable reagent for the subsequent detection of Tat in vitro and in vivo.
Aspects of the antibody response to Tat were determined in cattle that had been infected naturally or experimentally with JDV, and compared with the levels of antibody to the immunodominant capsid protein. Tat antibodies were detected in 23 % of 128 Bali cattle from Jembrana disease-endemic areas of Indonesia; in all these cattle, evidence of previous virus infection had been demonstrated by detection of antibody to the JDV capsid protein by Western blot analysis. In cattle experimentally infected with JDV, low levels of serum antibody to Tat were detected by Western blot in the first month post-infection but the levels of antibody then decreased; levels of antibody to the JDV capsid protein increased over the 6-month observation period following infection. The detection of Tatantibody soon after the acute clinical disease suggested that this protein is secreted extracellularly during JDV infection in cattle. In contrast to the antibody response to Tat in JDV-infected cattle, an apparently greater antibody response to Tat was induced by injection of recombinant Tat in Bali cattle. The strong antibody response resulting from inoculation of the recombinant Tat and low levels of Tat antibody in animals that had been naturally or experimentally infected with virus suggested there might be a conformational difference in the recombinant and native Tat protein and that the native protein was a poor immunogen, or that the levels of Tat in infected cattle were too low to induce a strong antibody response. As an alternative means of inducing an immune response to JDV Tat, perhaps one associated with a greater cell-mediated rather than an antibody response, a candidate tat DNA vaccine was produced by insertion of tat exon 1 into a DNA vaccine vector. Transfection of this naked DNA plasmid into mammalian cells induced the expression of a functional Tat protein which maintained antigenicity. The results suggested this construct merits further animal studies attempting to induce a protective immune response against Jembrana disease in cattle. A method of assaying the trans-acting function of Tat was also developed which will have application for quality control procedures for large-scale production of tat DNA vaccine.

Full textAbstract:
Sammanfattning Syfte och frågeställningar Det övergripande syftet med studien är att undersöka hur brottare upplever bantning. Studien kommer att undersöka seniorbrottare och genomföras i Stockholm. Följande frågeställningar är i fokus vid denna studie: Hur upplever brottare i studien att bantningsprocessen kommer att påverkas av det nya invägningssystemet? Hur upplever brottare i studien att det nya invägningssystemet påverkar deras inställning inför bantning? Metod I denna studie kommer vi att använda oss av den kvalitativa metoden hermeneutik. Eftersom studien följer en hermeneutisk ansats och har som mål att skapa förståelse av upplevelser är det fördelaktigt med intervjuer då vi kan få djupare svar. Intervjuerna utformades utifrån en semistrukturerad mall. Urvalet var strategiskt och bestod av sex seniorbrottare i Stockholm. Analysmetoden grundar sig i ett hermeneutiskt förhållningssätt till vår data. Resultat Sammanfattningsvis visar resultaten att brottarna i studien upplever att bantningsprocessen inte kommer att påverkas av det nya invägningssystemet vad gäller förekomsten av bantning, bantningsmetoderna och bantningsprocessen. Däremot upplever brottarna att det nya invägningssystemet har påverkat hur stor andel av sin kroppsvikt brottarna kan banta. Resultaten tyder även på att brottarna överlag har blivit mer negativt inställda inför bantning efter införandet av det nya invägningssystemet. Slutsats Brottarna i studien upplever att bantningsprocessen inte kommer att påverkas av det nya invägningssystemet vilket verkar bero på att bantning är djupt inrotad i brottningskulturen. Däremot verkar det nya invägningssystemet leda till att brottare kommer banta en mindre andel av sin kroppsvikt, vilket främst beror på den minskade återhämtningstiden mellan invägning och tävling. Det nya invägningssystemet verkar dessutom ha påverkat brottares inställning inför bantning. Flera brottare upplever att de nya reglerna gör att bantningsprocessen har blivit psykiskt jobbigare och mer ohälsosam.<br><p>Specialidrott, LS4A</p>

AbstractArbetets art: C – uppsats i Barndoms- och ungdomsvetenskapSidantal: 32Titel: Ätstörningar hos ungdomar i årskurs sex i två orter i SkåneFörfattare: Emma StenfellHandledare: Ann-Sofi RåstamDatum: 2006-06-08Bakgrund: Medierna påverkar oss människor mycket. Ett budskap som förmedlas är de kroppsideal som råder idag. Man ska vara smal och se bra ut. Flera studier visar att värderingarna påverkar många, och framförallt de unga människorna i samhället. Ätstörningar sjunker i åldrarna och många barn bantar för att kunna leva upp till skönhetsidealen. Bantning i ung ålder kan vara en utlösande faktor till utvecklingen av ätstörningar som anorexi och bulimi. Pedagogers förebyggande arbete genom undervisning och tidig upptäckt av riskelever är en viktig del för att hindra att sjukdomarna anorexi och bulimi uppstår.Syfte: Syftet med studien var att få en överblick över hur förekommande bantning är bland elever i årskurs sex. Jag ville med hjälp av den här undersökningen bilda mig en uppfattning om eventuell förekomst av barns ätstörningar i årskurs sex och deras syn på sig själva. Jag vill få andra människor som arbetar med barn och ungdomar, att få upp ögonen för problem som rör bantning och ätstörningar hos elever. Jag vill även ta reda på hur man kan arbeta i förebyggande syfte som pedagog och om pedagoger ute i skolorna gör det.Metod: Jag har valt att använda mig av en kvantitativ undersökning i form av enkätstudie, som jag delat ut till fyra olika klasser i årskurs sex (85 elever) med cirka 20 elever i varje klass och till sex pedagoger som undervisar i årskurs sex.Resultat: Bantning förekom i den här åldern. 26 av eleverna hade ofta eller någon gång bantat. Ett antal elever passar in under kriterierna för att utveckla anorexi och bulimi. Jag kan dock inte med säkerhet påstå att det förekom. Majoriteten av eleverna som bantade och var missnöjda med sin kropp var flickor. Pedagogerna i den aktuella undersökningsgruppen arbetade så att uppkomsten av sjukdomarna anorexi och bulimi skulle förhindras, genom att4stärka elevernas självkänsla, självförtroende, medvetenhet om den egna kroppen och medvetenhet om mediernas snedvridna skönhetsideal.Diskussion: Det förekom elever i undersökningsgruppen som bantat, och som hade beteenden som kan relateras till sjukdomarna anorexi och bulimi. Beteenden som bantning tillsammans med dålig självbild kan leda till ätstörningar. Majoriteten av de elever som jag sammankopplade med det här, var enligt min undersökning främst flickor. Pedagogerna i min undersökningsgrupp fokuserade på det friska, samtalade om kroppen, arbetade för att stärka sina elevers självkänsla och självförtroende. Ändå är bantning och beteenden som kan relateras till ätstörningar förekommande bland eleverna. Det tycker jag är ett tecken på att mer måste göras i skolorna och i samhället för att minska antalet elever som bantar på ett osunt vis. Vi som pedagoger måste arbeta för att förbättra situationen i skolan för våra eleverNyckelord: Ungdomar, bantning, ätstörningar, förebyggande arbete, pedagog, självkänsla, självförtroende

Full textAbstract:
Bakgrund: Negativ kroppsuppfattning,intryck av dagens kroppsideal och påverkan från media är riskfaktorer som kan leda till att ungdomar utvecklar ett ohälsosamt bantningsbeteende. Där förhoppningen är att gå ned i vikt på ett eller annat sätt med hjälp av sjukdomsalstrande bantningsmetoder. Konsekvenser av ett ohälsosamt bantningsbeteende kan leda resultera i att ungdomar äventyrar sin hälsa både fysiskt och psykiskt. Eftersom ohälsosamma bantningsbeteenden ökar kraftigt hos ungdomar skapar detta ett behov för skolsköterskan och elevhälsan att utveckla och genomföra förebyggande insatser för att tidigt kunna upptäcka och effektivt hantera ett ohälsosamt bantningsbeteende hos elever. Syfte: Syftet med studien var att beskriva skolsköterskans erfarenheter av att arbeta med ohälsosamma bantningsbeteenden hos ungdomar. Metod: En kvalitativ ansats användes. Personliga semistrukturerade intervjuer gjordes med tio skolsköterskor. Intervjuerna analyserades utifrån en kvalitativ innehållsanalys. Resultat: Resultatet visas i from av fyra kategorier: identifera varningstecken, samverkan med föräldrar, samverkan i och utanför elevhälsan, samt förhålla sig professionellt. Resultatet visade främst likheter, men även skillnader i skolsköterskans erfarenheter av ett ohälsosamt bantningsbeteende hos elev. Slutsats: För att främja hälsa hos elev bör skolsköterskan tidigt identifiera varningstecken, arbeta mera familjefokuserat samt förbättra samarbetet med elevhälsan och andra vårdverksamheter. Ett förslag till förbättring är utformning av riktlinjer som kan användas som stöd för tillvägagångsätt.

Full textAbstract:
La thèse essaie de montrer l’histoire du droit dans le sultanat de Bantěn aux XVIIe et XVIIIe siècles. L’étude se fonde principalement sur un manuscrit unique, intitulé Undhang-Undhang Bantěn (le ‘code’ de Bantěn). Ce texte a appartenu au dernier cadi de Bantěn qui portait le titre Kiyahi Peqih Najmuddin (mort en ca. 1855 ou 1856). Le codex se trouve actuellement dans la collection de Snouck Hurgronje à la bibliothèque de l’université du Leyde, aux Pays-Bas, sous la cote L. Or 5598. Ce manuscrit, composé de 227 pages au total, fut écrit essentiellement en javanais avec des caractères arabes (pegon) et javanais, tandis que 11 pages sont rédigées en malais (caractères arabes [jawi]). La partie la plus ancienne de ce texte contient 65 pages écrites en caractères javanais et copiées après 1755, mais on sait que le reste l’a été après 1815. Cette thèse est constituée d’un travail philologique : la translittération de l’écriture javanaise et arabe en écriture latine, la traduction du texte javanais en français, et les commentaires. Il s’agit d’une édition critique qui pourrait servir au plus grand nombre de chercheurs. Le manuscrit ‘Undhang-Undhang Bantěn’ (UUB), datant des XVIIe et XVIIIe siècles, est un texte hétéroclite. Il s’agit d’une compilation de onze textes juridiques de natures différentes. Ce n’est pas, proprement dit, un code de lois du sultanat de Bantěn, mais plutôt la mise par écrit du droit coutumier en vigueur à cette époque. Ce codex était destiné à servir de façon très pratique. On a rassemblé des textes dans un recueil qui servait de guide pour juger les cas nouveaux<br>The thesis attempts to show the legal history in the Sultanate of Banten, in the XVIIth and the XVIIIth centuries. This study is based on the manuscript L. Or 5598. The manuscript belongs to the last Kiyahi Pěqih Najmuddin (the title of the lslamic judge of the Sultanate of Banten) Faqih Haji Muhamma Adin (died c. 1855/6). The manuscript is unique, and is preserved in the library of Leiden University (the Netherlands), thanks to Snouck Hurgronje, a leading Dutch scholar of Islam in Indonesia. The major part of the text is written in Javanese (227 pages in total), whilst 11 pages are written in Malay, using Arabic and Javanese letters. Its origins lay in diverse sources : a 65-page text in Javanese letters, which was reproduced post 1755, and the remaining 162 pages, this time written in Arabic letters, reproduced post 1815. The thesis consists basically of a philological work : the transliteration of the Arabic and Javanescript into Latin script, the original Javanese text translation in French, and the comments. The resultant edition of the text allows for its use as widely as possible. The ‘Undhang-Undhang Banten’ (UUB) dating from the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries is a hybrid text. It is composed of several separate texts (11 texts) bound together in one manuscript. The text itself is not a “code” of laws of the Sultanate of Banten, but the writing down of customary law in force at that time. This codex is intended to serve a very practical way. The texts are put together in one collection, to serve as a guide in new cases

Full textAbstract:
Almost half of the population in Sweden suffers from obesity and the cases of eating disorders are increasing. We are exposed daily to the belief that losing weight will make us happier and it will just be through this particular diet. Even if it has been proven that short dieting plans like “lose 20 pounds in one month” doesn’t give a long-term result, society continues to buy into the idea that they do. Every day 16000 placards are placed around us in Sweden with loud yellow colors and big black letters which make them almost impossible to avoid. Their main purpose is to attract and get as many people as possible to buy single copies. This essay deals with several questions: How diet tips figures on placards and how this has developed through years. Also which consequences the result has on the society and our body ideals. The theories and concepts are derived from five areas of research: commercialism, media influence, source criticism, body issues and dietary. Our aim is to map, analyze and problematize how diet tips are presented quantitatively on placard. The method is quantitative research and the study is limited to the media content on placards for evening papers (Aftonbladet and Expressen) 2009, and a comparison between four years; 1979, 1989, 1999 and 2009. An important conclusion from this study is that dieting has an important place in the media agenda. The number of placard about dieting increase after Christmas and before the summer and in April 2009 could you every two days read one. This shows that the newspaper plays on our self-esteems and diet tips on placard are commercially viable. Media has engrained in our minds that "thin is in", and "stout is most definitely out" and they use celebrities and “the ordinary person” to convince us to buy the newspaper. Another conclusion is that diet tips as a phenomenon is here to stay, a matter of fact it has gone from 3 placards about dieting 1979 to 97 placards 2009, and nothing indicates that it will decrease. The diet tips are confusing, misleading and have no credibility, which deeply impacts society in a negative way. Overweight people who need to lose weight get incorrect information, and thinness standout as healthy.

<p>Bakgrund: Under senare år har det blivit vanligare att företagen i tidningsartiklar och årsredovisningar talar om att de har ”bantat” sin balansräkning. Företag använder begreppet i flera olika sammanhang och för att signalera att åtgärder som är positiva för företagen genomförts. Innebörden och konsekvensen av de åtgärder som vidtagits i företagen varierar dock kraftigt. </p><p>Syfte: Syftet med vår magisteruppsats är att utreda vilken innebörd begreppet ”bantade” balansräkningar har för ett antal företag inom olika branscher. </p><p>Genomförande: I undersökningen valde vi ut företag noterade på Stockholmsbörsen som offentliggjort att de genomfört bantningar av sina balansräkningar. Genom att studera tidningsartiklar och årsredovisningar har vi utrönt vilka åtgärder som vidtagits av företagen samt effekterna av de genomförda åtgärderna. </p><p>Resultat: En bantning av en balansräkning innebär att åtgärder för att minska tillgångsmassan skett. Vilka dessa åtgärder är och vilket syftet med dem är varierar dock kraftigt. Några exempel på åtgärder som företagen utfört är extra aktieutdelningar, sale and lease back, outsourcing, försäljning av dotterbolag och återköp av egna aktier. Användningen av begreppet sker mycket godtyckligt. Effekterna av åtgärderna varierar, några vi funnit är minskad skuldsättning, ökad skuldsättning, minskade tillgångar och ökad lönsamhet.</p>

This thesis is an attempt to understand the views of Nawawi al-Banteni on the subject of Sufism, especially as they appear in his work Salalim al-Fudala', commentary on the Hidayat al-Adhkiya' ila Tariq al-Awliya' of Zayn al-Din al-Malibari<br>By observing the existence and the development of Sufism in Indonesia and the career of Nawawi al-Banteni the thesis tries to achieve a better understanding of his contribution in the field. Earlier studies have tended to discuss him and his works in general, whereas this study concentrates more specifically on al-Banteni's Sufi thought through his comments on the subject.<br>Another question that is raised is that of Nawawi al-Banteni's originality in his commentary on the Hidayat al-Adhkiya' of al-Malibari. Finally, the important point is made that Nawawi does not seem to have been influenced by either heterodox or pre-Islamic concepts, which were relatively powerful in Indonesia of his day. On the other hand he had a great influence on the people or his country, especially in his home town Banten, in terms of the development of both nationalism and Islamic education in Indonesia.

Full textAbstract:
There are two contrasting scenes in the history of Banten: a history of a prosperous port sultanate in the sixteenth and seventeenth century, and a history of a dark and oppressed nineteenth-century society. The eighteenth century represents a gap between the two scenes. Historians have understood that during this period the Dutch East India Company (VOC) turned Banten a backwater of Java. Only a limited numbers of historians, however, have paid their attention on the study of Banten history during the second half of the eighteenth century. It is the aim of this thesis to study Banten society in this period to demonstrate its dynamics in both upper and lower strata. The thesis focuses only on the social and cultural aspects of the late-eighteenth-century Banten society. Indigenous sources, the law-book and the records of the Kadi Court, are mainly examined to draw up the picture of a living Southeast Asian society. The study begins with the examination of the two authorities holding the sovereignty over the sultanate, the Sultan and the VOC. Although the two authorities did not fight against each other in their rule over the state, it is worth studying the art of expressing the supremacy employed by both camps. Traditional Javanese kingship, Islam and the prosperity of the royal court were concentrated in the hands of the Sultan to secure his authority and to retain the recognition of his subjects. The VOC, on the other hand, applied a traditional overlord-vassal relationship to transform itself into a 'hybrid creature' - at once a merchant and a prince. The components of the VOC settlement in Banten are examined to prove its success. The study of the indigenous sources improves our understanding of the system of law and justice in the Sultanate of Banten. The Shari 'a law officially still played its role in people's way of life, while the state law and royal decree were created to secure the state administration and the ritual order at the centre of the kingdom. The examples of offences given in the law-book and the records of the matters brought before the Kadi Court are invaluable sources to help reconstruct the conditions in Banten society during the late eighteenth century. The life-style of people, material culture and prevailing social values can be drawn from these sources. The result shows Banten society as part of dynamic Southeast Asian world rather than an example of an ideal Muslim community.

Full textAbstract:
La thèse porte sur les rapports entre réseaux d'autorité et institutions politiques dans la province de Banten en Indonésie. L'auteur examine particulièrement la position qu'occupent les « hommes forts » jawara et les chefs religieux kiai au sein de ces rapports. L'étude a pour axe de comparaison le village de Rancalame, réputé pour son école de penca, lequel se présente comme une initiation rituelle comprenant des techniques de combat et est ancré sous des formes diverses en Insulinde. Les règles ancestrales de l'école de Rancalame stipulent que les initiés doivent œuvrer pour développer l'école tout en maintenant pérennes les valeurs qui leur sont associées et forment un éthos du « jawarisme ». Les activités du village et de l'école, ainsi que les ramifications qui ont été créées à partir des années 1970 sont décrites en première partie. Cette comparaison porte sur les dynamiques internes des écoles, leur organisation en réseau, ainsi que les rapports différenciés qu'elles entretiennent avec les structures politiques. Celles-ci comprennent les institutions politiques d'État ainsi que des « groupes d'influence » situés à l'interface entre ces dernières et les réseaux d'autorité décrits précédemment. Pour comprendre les glissements repérés dans les écoles de penca, la seconde partie de la thèse est centrée sur l'évolution historique des réseaux de jawara au niveau régional. Ceci permet de cadrer leur inclusion dans les dynamiques supra-locales et de spécifier leur rôle depuis l'époque coloniale jusqu'à aujourd'hui, en passant par la période du centralisme d'État suhartoïste<br>The thesis concerns the relationship between authority networks and political institutions in the province of Banten in Indonesia. The author examines particularly the position that the "strong men" jawara and the religious leaders kiai occupy within these relationships. The study has for axis of comparison the village of Rancalame, renowned for its school of penca, which appears as a ritual initiation including fighting techniques and is present in diverse forms in the Malay world. The ancestral rules of the school of Rancalame stipulate that the initiated have to work at developing the school while maintaining the values which are associated with them and form a "jawarism" ethos. The activities of the village and the school, as well as the ramifications which were created from the 1970s are described in the first part. This comparison concerns the internal dynamics of the schools, their organization in network, as well as differentiated relationships that they maintain with the political structures. These include the political State institutions as well as “groups of influence” situated in the interface between these last ones and the networks of authority described previously. To understand the transformations spotted in the schools of penca, the second part of the thesis is focused on the historic evolution of the networks of jawara at the regional level. This allows to measure their inclusion in the above local dynamics and to specify their role since the colonial period until today, going through the period of the suhartoïst centralized State

Full textAbstract:
The banteng (Bos javanicus lowi) is an endangered wild bovid that is endemic to the island of Borneo. Within their last stronghold, the Malaysian state of Sabah, their population is believed to be less than 500 individuals, which are threatened with extinction by habitat loss and hunting. The banteng is highly elusive and rarely seen, and their preference for dense and remote tropical forest habitat makes them a highly challenging species to study. No extensive quantitative surveys have been undertaken in Sabah, and there is little information available to underpin their conservation and management. This thesis provides the first baseline data on the Bornean banteng in Sabah using ecological and molecular techniques. In Chapter 2, I created the first extensive natural history account of the banteng, which will help further the knowledge of this species. This compilation helped identify gaps in the knowledge, which were then addressed by this thesis. In Chapter 3, I test non-invasive survey techniques and individual identification, and estimate the population size in two forest reserves. In Chapter 4, I demonstrate that logged forests undergo dramatic changes in structure and ambient temperature, and that banteng mitigate these changes by altering their behaviour to avoid thermal-stress. Chapter 5 presents new information of the population genetic structure of banteng in four forest reserves in Sabah. Using mitochondrial markers I show that the ancestral lineage of the Bornean banteng reinforces the suggestion that they should be recognised as a separate subspecies to the Burmese and Javan banteng. I also show that the banteng experienced a population expansion following their colonisation of Borneo, and that the present genetic diversity indicates the population may be managed as two geographically-distinct units. Chapter 6 summarises the main findings of this thesis and the implications for the conservation of the Bornean banteng in Sabah.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis argues that an examination of literary translation offers a way to rethink the ongoing reading 'encounter' between authors, and makes explicit some of the hidden concerns of texts such as the development of style, the role of the reader, and writerly affinities. 'Close reading', then, is understood as simultaneously methodology and metaphor, and has as its primary focus here the work of Anna Banti (1895-1985) and Virginia Woolf (1882-1941). The thesis moves from a specific consideration of a translating 'moment' (Banti's 1950 Italian translation of Woolf's 1992 novel, Jacob's Room) through considerations of reception and how texts 'travel', and the re-writing by both authors of themes such as history, auto/biography, and the role of the woman writer, to the further re-viewings of their texts as film. Drawing on Walter Benjamin's work on the 'afterlife' of art and on the 'continua of transformation' present in the work of translation, and on accounts of reading, writing and affinity, I will demonstrate that cultural boundaries and literary categories are porous and mutable, endlessly open to correspondence with other times, places and media.

Full textAbstract:
Providing a broadband access anytime and anywhere is one of the visions of the future 5G network. However, deploying a reliable network connection in remote/rural areas has been a challenging task because of its wide area that needed to be covered and a low density of user compared to urban area. Different geography and traffic condition may need different system solution. In this thesis, we analyze several solutions to providing a broadband access network in practical remote and rural area in Banten, Indonesia: Leuwidamar (remote) and Panimbang (rural). Two approaches are discussed, first one is fulfilling futuristic traffic demand by having LTE System, and the second one is by having 5G System. We included three key technology components in a 5G network: occupying wide bandwidth in high frequency, applying UE-Specific Beamforming, and implementing Carrier Aggregation (CA) scheme. We also account a rain attenuation when deploying a network in high operating frequency, since Indonesia has a high rain rate thus it is important to be considered. We compared five cases of solution: Case 1 is Single Carrier (SC) LTE 1.8 GHz system; Case 2 is Carrier Aggregation (CA) LTE 1.8 GHz + 2.6 GHz; Case 3 is SC 5G 15GHz; Case 4 is SC 5G 28 GHz; Case 5 is CA LTE 1.8 GHz + 5G 15 GHz. Basedon the evaluation, in Leuwidamar scenario, Case 5 gives us the least number of BS needed in order to meet the futuristic requirement with only 1.6 x densification from the current network. In Panimbang, the least number of BS neededis offered by two cases, Case 3 and Case 5 without any additional BS needed(1x densification). However, the solution with the lowest energy consumption for both area is Case 3. This is due to the fact that the carrier aggregation scenario needs additional power to generate the second system. Furthermore, if we introduce cell DTX ability in the 5G network, the Case 3 can give us impressive amount of energy saving, with 97% saving for Leuwidamar and 94% saving for Panimbang, compared to Case 1 solution without any DTX Capability.<br>Att tillhandahålla bredbandsanslutning när som helst och var som helst är en av visionerna för det framtida 5G-nätverket. Att använda en tillförlitlig nätverksanslutning i avlägsna- eller landsbygdsområden har dock varit en utmanande uppgift på grund av det breda området som måste täckas och den låga täthetenav användare jämfört med stadsområden. Olika geografiska förhållanden och trafikförhållanden kan behöva olika systemlösningar. I denna avhandling analyserarvi flera lösningar för att tillhandahåller ett bredbandsnätverk i verkligt avlägset eller landsbygdsområde i Banten, Indonesien: Leuwidamar (avlägset) och Panimbang (landsbygd). Två strategier diskuteras, den första uppfyller framtida trafikbehov genom att ha LTE-system och den andra är genom att ha5G System. Vi inkluderade tre viktiga teknikkomponenter i 5G-nätverk: bredbandbredd och hög frekvens, tillämpar UE-specifik strålformning och implementeringav carrier aggregation (CA). Vi redovisar också en dämpning av regn när nätverket används i hög bärvågsfrekvens, eftersom Indonesien har en hög regnhastighet och det är viktigt att överväga. Vi jämförde fem fall av lösning:Fall 1 är Single Carrier (SC) eller Enkelbärare LTE 1.8 GHz system; Fall 2 är bärareaggregation (CA) LTE 1,8 GHz + 2.6 GHz; Fall 3 är SC 5G 15 GHz;Fall 4 är SC 5G 28 GHz; Fall 5 är CA LTE 1.8 GHz + 5G 15 GHz. Baserat på utvärderingen, i Leuwidamar-scenariot,ger Fall 5 oss det minsta antalet BSsom behövs för att möta det futuristiska kravet med endast 1.6 gångers förtätning från nuvarande nätverk. I Panimbang erbjuds det minsta antalet BS somkrävs i två fall, fall 3 och fall 5 utan ytterligare BS behövs (1 gångers förtätning). Lösningen med den lägsta energiförbrukningen för båda områdena är fall 3. Detta beror på att bäraraggregations scenariot behöver ytterligare effekt för att generera det andra systemet. Om vi introducerar cell DTX-funktionen i 5G-nätverket kan Fall 3 ge oss en imponerande energibesparing, med 97% minskning för Leuwidamar och 94% för Panimbang jämfört med Fall 1-lösning utan DTX-funktion.

Full textAbstract:
Hadīth scholarship and its erudition among the Jāwah or the Muslims from the Malay Archipelago (the term applied to them in the Hejaz) in the periods prior to the twentieth century is almost a neglected area of study on Islam and its development in the Southeast Asian region. While this may be surprising considering the sublime status and influence of hadīth on the religious outlook of the Jāwah, perhaps the dearth of surviving materials on hadīth and its study during these periods might have also aggravated this apparent gap in their religious and intellectual history in the pre-modern era. However, this study proposes that despite the feasibility of an early presence of hadīth studies and its scholarship among the Jāwah, it was actually in the nineteenth century that significant development in its scholarship and discourse took place through Lubāb al-Hadīth. This is a collection of four hundred traditions attributed to al-Suyūtī (d. 911/1505), which has managed to attract serious scholarly interests from two important Jāwah scholars in Mecca namely, Nawawī of Banten (d. 1314/1897) and Wan ‘Alī of Kelantan (d. 1331/1913), who undertook their adaptations and commentaries of the text. Even though both scholars shared similar cultural and scholarly milieu of Arabia, their approaches, methods, and choices of languages in commenting on the text are markedly divergent. The fact that both works are still being distributed and read until the present day indicates their significance and relevance as an influential legacy of Jāwah h}adīth scholarship and its discourse in the nineteenth century. Thus, this study examines the important issue of hadīth scholarship in the nineteenth century through the case of Lubāb al-Hadīth and a comparative study of its two commentaries as mentioned above. Although the primary focus of discussion is on their methods on hadīth and selected religious views as presented in their commentaries, the anonymities surrounding the origin, authorship and significance of the base work is also analyzed. In turn, this has lead to a more detailed account on the place and influence of these works on the general development and characteristics of Jāwah hadīth scholarship and its discourse in the nineteenth century which also had their impacts in later years.

Full textAbstract:
In previous research in this field of study, the messages from the female magazines have often been aimed at bodily changes in the woman. The opinions that exist about what a woman should look like and what kind of body corrections are accepted in society is of different character. Likewise, opinions differ on the impact from the media in this context. Our survey is based on a constructivist approach where we believe that the media creates a need for the reader to want to change their looks as well as it encourages to consume. In our survey, we used a quantitative content analysis where we analyzed 93 covers of Amelia, Tara and M-magasin – lifestyle magazines aimed at women of different ages. The theories that we decided to use are gender and female representation, consumer culture and constructivism. With the selected theories we have analyzed the result which has shown that there is a difference between how the magazines form their messages. Something that is common between the three analyzed magazines is that they use a famous model with several messages on the covers. What differs most between the different magazines is how often they send messages about body corrections to the reader.<br>I den tidigare forskning som vår undersökning har tagit avstamp i hur ofta kvinnomagasinens budskap syftat till kroppsliga förändringar hos kvinnan. De åsikter som finns om hur en kvinna bör se ut och vilka kroppskorrigeringar som är accepterade i samhället skiljer sig åt. Likaså skiljer sig meningarna om vilken påverkan medierna har i detta sammanhang. Vår undersökning utgår från ett konstruktivistiskt synsätt där vi menar att medierna skapar ett behov hos läsaren till att vilja förändra sitt yttre samt en uppmaning till att konsumera. Vi har i vår undersökning använt oss av en kvantitativ innehållsanalys där vi har analyserat 93 omslag på magasinen Amelia, Tara och M-magasin – livsstilsmagasin riktade till kvinnor i olika åldrar. De teorier som vi har valt att använda oss av är genus och kvinnlig representation, konsumtionskultur samt konstruktivismen. Med de utvalda teorierna har vi analyserat resultatet som har visat att det skiljer sig åt mellan hur magasinen utformat sina budskap i textpuffarna. Något som är gemensamt mellan de tre analyserade magasinen är att de använder sig av en känd modell tillsammans med många textpuffar på omslagen. Det som skiljer sig mest åt mellan de olika magasinen är hur ofta de använder sig av textpuffar med budskap om kroppskorrigering.

A travers le biais de la memoire, ce travail suit des itineraires de femmes - de l'unite italienne au neo-feminisme-dela maison, espace feminin traditionnel, et espace specifique pour la femme elle-meme (la maison comme un ventre maternel), jusqu'au "monde" trouble de cette fin de millenaire : la "storia" d'un quotidien qui rend compte cependant de la violence du siecle. La maison etant fonction d'un imaginaire social autant que domestique, quitter la maison repond a une double necessite pour les femmes: dystopie de la maison comme vaine protection et volonte de participer a la gestion du monde.

La crise des ideologies, percue par les femmes avant les hommes se colore d'une aspiration a la "vraie justice", selon la loi d'antigone : la loi du sang contre la loi ecrite<br>Through the indirect means of memory, this work follows women's routes - from italian unity to neo-feminism - from the house, traditional female space, ans specific space for woman herself (the house as a mother's womb) to the confused "word" of this end of millenary : "storia" of an everyday life which, nevertheless, renders an account of the century violence. The house acts as a social as vell as domestic imaginary, therefore, leaving the house answers a dual necessity for women : dystopia of the house as a useless protection and a will to partecipate in the world management. The female character signalizes itself by a particuliar understanding of the living space where the phobia of cellars may throw a light upon the impossible return to the mother. The time to break with mothers comes in the seventies, "the bad mothers "appearing with the claim for feminine reality. Then the memory of history allows a confirmation of a correspondence between the dystopia of the house and the utopia of a different word. With the search for "something else" which includes maternal fonction, the responsability of women who want not to conquer the world but to "live" in it, to make possible to live in. The crisis of ideoligies that women perceived before men, colours with an aspiration for "real justice" according to antigone's law : the law of blood against written law

Full textAbstract:
À la fin du XVIe siècle et au début du XVIIe, les Anglais et les Hollandais se lancent à l’assaut de l’empire établi depuis un siècle dans l’océan Indien par les Portugais, qui contrôlaient le lucratif commerce des épices. L’objectif de cette thèse est d’étudier quelle part ont pris les Français dans ce grand mouvement économique qui porta les nations européennes à exploiter les richesses des Indes orientales. Il est fréquemment admis que les relations de la France avec le Sud-Est asiatique n’ont débuté qu’à partir de 1664, lorsque Colbert a fondé la grande Compagnie française des Indes orientales, qui est la seule retenue par l’histoire. À l’aide de récits de voyages français, anglais et hollandais, de documents manuscrits conservés à la Bibliothèque nationale de France, de pièces de procès postérieurs aux faits ou encore d’autres documents issus des archives anglaises ou hollandaises, mon travail tente de remettre en cause cette idée reçue et de faire mieux connaître les tentatives effectuées par les Français afin de prendre part au commerce des épices dans le premier quart du XVIIe siècle. Dès 1601, une expédition privée menée par des Malouins a été relatée par deux de ses participants, François Pyrard et François Martin. En 1604, une première Compagnie française des Indes orientales a été fondée par Henri IV, tandis que trois autres expéditions ont eu lieu entre 1616 et 1622. Malgré ces efforts louables, il faut au final établir un constat d’échec et essayer d’en cerner les différentes causes<br>At the end of the 16th century and the beginning of the 17th century, the English and the Dutch set out to conquer the empire established a century before by the Portuguese who had the control over the lucrative spice trade. The aim of the present thesis is to study the role played by the French in the big economic movement which led the European nations to the exploitation of the East Indies. It is usually admitted that the relationships between France and Southeast Asia did not start before 1664, date of the creation by Colbert of the French East India Company, the only company retained by history. Thanks to French, English and Dutch travel accounts, handwritten documents kept at the Bibliothèque nationale de France, case exhibits subsequent to the facts in question as well as other types of documents belonging to English or Dutch archival collections, my work intends to question this common belief stated above and to make the French attempts to take part in the lucrative spice trade in the first two decades of the 17th century better known. As soon as 1601, a private expedition led by sailors from St Malo was reported by two of its participants, François Pyrard and François Martin. In 1604, a first French East India Company was founded by Henry IV and three more expeditions took place between 1616 and 1622. Despite all these efforts, one must acknowledge the failure of these expeditions and try to understand its reasons

Full textAbstract:
This project is a diplomatic transcription and English translation of a passage from an 18-century manuscript that chronicles a remarkable Portuguese embassy to China (Macau). The embassy embarked from Lisbon in February 1752, sailing in a luxuriously outfitted ship (Nossa Senhora da Conceição e Lusitânia Grande), in convoy with a warship (Nossa Senhora das Brotas). The English translation is important because it makes the account accessible to scholars who lack familiarity with Portuguese.This voyage to China is remarkable in light of the long history of maritime loss by the Portuguese. Although the normal projected loss of life on this route was 20%, this journey was made without one death. Some of the most fascinating aspects of the journey include the following: a) how the intrepid crew of the Nossa Senhora (most of whom were novices) and the passengers dealt with bad weather at sea; b) the religious rites conducted during the voyage by Jesuit priests en route to the Far East missions, which the passengers firmly believed mitigated the dangers and were thus responsible for their safe journey; c) the intriguing political maneuvering between the Portuguese and Chinese in Macau; and d) the meticulous descriptions of the different cultures, peoples and places encountered on the journey.

Full textAbstract:
碩士<br>國立中興大學<br>歷史學系所<br>102<br>Tang Dynasty is a highly developed dynasty in political, economical, and social aspects. It is also the one of glorious dynasty in China history. The communication between different ethnics is an important constituent to
develop the culture. It can be shown that the culture in Tang dynasty was open and multiple. Thus, the banter culture was born in the atmosphere and been
widespread.
There are two reasons to explain why the banter culture was so popular in Tang dynasty. One is the free and indulgent atmosphere in society. Another is that the less limitation of laws. Thus, everyone, no matter what social status are you in, can take part in the activity called” banter.” It included many people in different status, the emperor; the nobles, the scholars, and the citizen. The popularization and amusement of banter culture enriched the culture of Tang dynasty.
Thus, we will investigate the meaning and spread area of banter culture in Tang dynasty, choose 248 related items from “hui-xie”, “chao-qiao”, and “chi-bi” chapters in Tai Ping Guang Chi. And we can know more about the personalities of people in Tang Dynasty from those mockers and the people
who been mocked. What the personalities and abilities they have to qualify them to be the mockers? What personalities they have to qualify them to been mocked? The elements they laughed at are about one’s appearance, personality,and job? Or it will be the one’s personality, or the manner of handling a person
or a situation? It helps us to understand the main idea of banter culture by analyzing those data. Thus, there are two themes in this thesis; one is to discuss the relationship between the life styles and the banter culture. Another is to talk about whether the banter culture has the differences in gender or dignity.

Full textAbstract:
碩士<br>國立中央大學<br>遙測科技碩士學位學程<br>98<br>The knowledge of ecological requirements and distributions of endangered species is a primary prerequisite to identify potential habitat for the species. But the potential habitat sites are usually difficult to access thus hard to investigate by traditional ground survey. With the capability of remotely sensed observations for wide area, satellite imagery combined with Geographic Information Systems (GIS) seems to be the best means for mapping and monitoring biodiversity at present.
The main aim of this study is to develop habitat suitability index (HSI) of banteng at Baluran National Park (BNP) based on biologic and topographic variable that were derived from remote sensing imagery data. The biologic variables consist of three sub variables; land cover map, Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) map and Soil Moisture Index (SMI) map, which are derived from Landsat ETM+ 7. The topographic variables consist of elevation and slope map of the study area which are derived from ASTER GDEM.
Analysis of banteng habitat suitability was conducted spatially using scoring, weighting and overlaying methods. Each layer of habitat variable/sub-variable was grouped into five classes and scored based on the habitat selection of banteng, with the highest score represent the area with very high suitability and lowest score represent unsuitable area for banteng. The calculation of weight value is done using the extension tool of Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) in ArcGIS 9.2 software. The Saaty’s pair-wise comparisons were applied for each habitat variable/sub-variable compared with the others to calculate the weight value of each habitat variable/sub- variable. The layer of biologic variable was produced with combination of weight value of 0.32 for land cover type, 0.12 for NDVI map and 0.56 for SMI map. The topographic variable was produced using elevation and slope map with 0.5 of weight value for each layer respectively. The final result of this study is HSI of banteng, which is calculated using weight value of 0.75 for biology variable and 0.25 for topographic variable. These biologic and topographic variables were superimposed to get a layer of banteng habitat suitability index.
The result shows that only 18.5% of BNP area which is very high suitable for banteng and 23.8% of BNP area is high suitable. 19.1% and 20. 1% of BNP areas were classified as unsuitable and low suitable area for banteng habitat. Based on the HSI map of banteng at BNP, most suitable area for banteng are located at southeast and southwest part of BNP, especially at Bitakol, Bama and Perengan Resorts and most of unsuitable area for banteng is located on north part of BNP.

Full textAbstract:
博士<br>國立清華大學<br>中國文學系<br>103<br>Humor in Chinese writing is an ever so important element perhaps as ancient as the history of Chinese literature itself. It was first presented, in the form of “banter poetry,” in the Book of Songs, as early as the Qin Dynasty. Over the centuries, traces of banter poetry could be found in the literary works of every dynasty. It eventually reached its peak in the Ming dynasty, a time when, ironically enough, the ruling class began to tighten its grip on the literary community that may question its authority, and many forms of classical writing went to decline.
Interestingly, though its roots can be traced back to the earliest periods of Chinese literature, the classification of banter was not formally established until late Ming. In Hu Zhenheng’s literary collection Tang Yin Tong Qian, banter was finally identified as an actual genre of poetry. The significance of this unprecedented act would later be seen in the Qing Dynasty, when the imperial government under Emperor Kangxi accepted this view and put banter poetry as an official category of poetry, thus granting it legitimacy and literary value for the first time.
What quality enabled banter poetry to flourish in the iron grip of the Ming government? Why, considering its essential role, was this form of humorous writing not widely recognized earlier on? The following paper presents a perspective through the “distinctions,” a popular trend for writers in the Ming Dynasty, and its influence on the evolution of banter poetry.

Full textAbstract:
碩士<br>國立清華大學<br>臺灣研究教師在職進修班<br>105<br>Humoristic and Bantering Narrative, a tone ceaselessly found in official newspapers, is always woven into solemn national policies in“ Taiwan Daily News Chinese Edition”. This research chooses Humoristic and Bantering Narrative from “Taiwan Daily News Chinese Edition” as language data and aims to probe into how traditional Taiwanese literati express themselves in official newspapers, which are complicated with the colonized, the colonists, and the colonial society, during the early Japanese Colonial Period, a period without freedom of speech, when colonial hegemony overwhelms the society while civilization is germinating and the political situation is changing.
This thesis has drawn some interesting conclusions as follows. First, humors in newspapers reflect a China with weak sense of time and geography, proclaiming and reemphasizing national identity to readers by contrasting Ancient China with Modern cīna. Second, the methods of simulation used in these narratives create a complexity of combining classics and jokes in the same articles. Third, the parody in Confucius and Mencius piles up those people’s imaginations of shift between Confucianism and practicality, and it also highlights colonists’ chase after Confucianism.
The sarcasms in stories of all walks of life found in humoristic and bantering narratives represent literati’s surrender to national policies, while they also reveal the fact that traditional literati, the colonized, were negotiating with colonists about policies. Only by uttering some seemingly harmless humorous words could contemporary literati express how rude colonial policies are. Through sarcasms free from political situations, literati build an unofficial corner where pain from suffocating practice of colonism could be relieved.

Full textAbstract:
The constant mutability of cultures as they meet and mix provides an ongoing laboratory in which to explore human dynamics. In this dissertation, I analyze the process and results of one indigenous-colonial encounter in Dutch Indonesia, using archaeological evidence from Banten, Java that illuminates interactions between Bantenese elites and Dutch East India Company (VOC) soldiers in the 17th to early 19th century. Banten, a global trade center and the focal point of Dutch expansion in Asia, had a cosmopolitan and multinational society of long standing, already apparent when the Dutch arrived in 1596. My research shows that a kind of "reverse" colonialism occurred here. Bantenese cultural influences penetrated more deeply into Dutch culture than the other way around, so that colonial Dutch culture took on a new, hybridized identity.
Utensils and vessels necessary for preparing and serving meals from excavations in the indigenous Sultan's Surosowan Palace, its surrounding Fort Diamond manned by VOC soldiers, and the Dutch headquarters at Fort Speelwijk provide the evidence. Petrographic and archaeological study indicate that the Dutch used locally produced Bantenese-style cooking vessels and lids, rather than import European tripod pots to accommodate their traditional open-fire cooking. Local Bantenese continued to use cooking stoves without tripod vessels, maintaining their culinary habits. VOC archives revealed a change in Dutch staple food from bread to rice. Hired male cooks and local women who prepared home meals (as wives and concubines) acted as cultural conduits, while vibrant local manufacturing and trade made local goods readily available. Thus Dutch cooking became hybridized with locally available vessels and ingredients.
The Banten results differed from the Dutch Cape Colony in South Africa but were similar to the Dejima trading post in Japan where the Dutch relied on local products. I conclude that proximity and daily interactions with the host society were crucial for shaping Dutch responses to the new environments and creating hybrid culture, instead of replicating their homeland. This study places Banten on the global map of cross-cultural interactions and colonial discourse; I hope to stimulate other researchers to test my hypotheses and build on these interpretations.<br>2016-12-31T00:00:00Z

Full textAbstract:
This study is a longitudinal descriptive study conducted in eight villages of Banten province, Indonesia. The research describes the nutritional status of two groups of pregnant village women and investigates the implementation and impact of an intervention to improve nutrition in pregnancy. The intervention aimed to improve the effectiveness of village midwives and cadres by improving the nutrition of pregnant women, particularly iron deficiency, through the use of a community development approach. The thesis identifies the importance of good nutrition during pregnancy and some of the factors, which influence it in the context of this study. It examines the health promotion programs for improving iron intake and nutrition in developing countries and specifically examines the programs that are used in Indonesia. A small decrease in the rate of anaemia appears to have occurred due to these programs, but the anaemia rate remains high. There has been little systematic examination of the cultural and social factors that may influence nutrition in pregnant women in Indonesia and few studies, which have measured the nutritional status of pregnant women. The goals of the study are to: * Describe the social and cultural factors that influence nutrition, under nutrition and iron deficiency anaemia during pregnancy and to measure the nutritional status of rural women in Banten Province, Indonesia. * Improve the knowledge and skills of village midwives and cadres in using community development and effective communication to improve iron supplementation and nutrition. The conceptual framework for the study was derived from principles of health promotion, in particular the 'Proceed and Proceed' model (Green & Kreuter 1991). The study took place in eight villages in Banten province, Indonesia. Four of the villages received a community development intervention and four villages were used for comparison. The study was undertaken in three stages: Stage 1 - Baseline Quantitative and Qualitative Data Collection; Stage 2 - Intervention; and Stage 3 - Follow Up Evaluation. The intervention was guided by the results of Stage 1 and consisted of a two-day workshop aimed to improve their knowledge, communication skills of the midwives and cadres and their ability to use a community development approach to improving nutrition in the villages. Qualitative and quantitative methods were used in the research at Stage 1 and Stage 3. Ethnographic methods of interview, observation, field notes and survey were used to collect information about the cultural and social factors that influence nutrition and nutritional practices during pregnancy. The knowledge and practices of midwives and cadres were also explored. Thematic analysis was used to analyse the data. Forty pregnant women (20 from the intervention villages and 20 from the comparison villages) participated in the qualitative component of the research before the intervention (Stage 1). The follow up evaluation occurred 12 months later, and a different group of 35 pregnant women (20 from the intervention villages and 15 from the comparison villages) participated in the qualitative component of the research at Stage 3. The same eight midwives and 16 cadres participated in the qualitative research at Stage 1 and Stage 3. Quantitative data collected at Stage 1 and Stage 3 included socio demographic data, obstetric information and nutritional data (haemoglobin level, body mass index, and the weight gain of pregnant women). Data was collected from 210 women before the intervention and 189 women after the intervention. Some changes in the practices of midwives and cadres were apparent after the intervention with midwives building better rapport, communicating more effectively and providing more information and support to pregnant women. Cadres also talked more about nutrition in community meetings. Changes in the behaviour and approach of village midwives and cadres' in relation to nutrition education resulted in improved nutritional behaviour of pregnant women to some extent, but poverty and culture restricted the ability of pregnant women to access better food. The intervention did not effect the overall nutritional status of the pregnant women. Because of time and logistical constraints, the intervention was not able to influence the community's health in the medium term in the intervention villages. The results of this study showed that the comparison villages sometimes had better results than the intervention villages. A possible explanation is that the systematic evaluation of nutritional status may have increased the awareness and practice of the better-educated and more knowledgeable midwives who were located in the comparison villages. The comparison midwives had a better basic education in midwifery when compared to the intervention midwives. It appeared these better-educated workers responded positively to the research even without exposure to the intervention. The study showed that the position of the pregnant woman is low within the hierarchy of both the health care system and the power structures of the broader community. Husbands, mother-in-law, village midwives, cadres and village leaders all have more power to determine what pregnant women can and cannot eat and drink than women do themselves. However, some women tried to access better food after the intervention by subverting culture and the authority of husbands and mother-in-law and eating nutritious food in secret.

This study explores the possible efficacy of a low carbohydrate and high fat nutritional intervention (LCHF) as a treatment possibility aiming to improve the ability of self-control and regulation in the context of carbohydrate-addiction.
The study first outlines why increased simple carbohydrate consumption has been implicated as a risk-factor in numerous chronic conditions, and then explores the possibility that a reduction of such consumption could lower general medical expenditure in the healthcare sector of already overburdened institutions, especially in developing countries like South Africa. Since the neurobiological evidence for food addiction is compelling, this study investigates the impact of a low carbohydrate and high fat eating (LCHF) regimen by measuring the change in the severity of addictive behaviour in relation to a reduced carbohydrate consumption. Results indicate that a LCHF nutritional intervention lessened addictive behaviour after just 30 days, resulting in a statistically significant decrease in addiction symptoms from day 1 to day 30. The weight and BMI values of the participants recorded at the end of the study showed a reduction from those obtained during the pre- treatment stage, and the self-perceived ‘feeling in control’ also improved in all participants after the intervention.
The introduction of a LCHF nutritional intervention presents a relatively cost-effective treatment and preventative measure to combat carbohydrate over-consumption and its numerous health complications, and it is therefore hoped that the positive findings of this study will foster further research, using larger samples, into this type of nutritional intervention against addictive eating behaviour.<br>Psychology<br>M.A. (Psychology)
