Abstract:

This thesis contains an investigation of the way in which children and adults depict depth when drawing a table. Research on development in depiction is reviewed (Chapters 1 and 2), with particular reference to the use of pictorial depth cues and projection systems. A series of studies on the use of projection systems in the drawing of a table is reported (Chapters 3 to 5) which shows that development in the depiction of depth is not directly related to development in the use of projection systems. It is also shown that the use of projection systems 1s task dependent, and is not closely relate

Abstract:

Systems need knowledge to behave intelligently in a complex environment. This thesis presents a formalism for characterizing the knowledge in a world while providing a framework that can be utilzed efficiently in computation. Thus Domain Theory is developed as a knowledge representation scheme. Under Domain Theory, the knowledge in a world is divided into domains that are interrelated through the relation of representation. This theory is evaluated as appropriate for knowledge representation using descriptive and procedural adequacy criteria. Domain Theory is applied to produce a working sys

This thesis studies the relationship between the treatment of Jewish characters by Christian authors in Middle English Crucifixion literature and the treatment of Jews in medieval Europe by members of surrounding Christian majority cultures. The common medieval Christian belief that all Jews, of all periods and places, were responsible for Jesus' death led to the related beliefs that there was a singular Jewish character; that it was racially determined; and that it was evil. The exaggerated role Jews play in Middle English versions of the Crucifixion, and the authors' various derogatory refer

The aim of the study is to investigate song lyrics within rap and pop music from a cultural and a gender perspective, focusing on the depiction of women. The investigation focuses on the nouns the songwriter use to refer to the concept of woman. Twenty songs from each genre are conveyed in this study. The results show that rap lyrics contain multiple nouns referring to the concept of woman that depict women in a negative way. Pop lyrics do not contain these words and thus have a more positive way of depicting women. Nouns that occur in both genres tend to be of positive value whereas nouns tha

Abstract:

This study of 1930s German fiction adds a new dimension to existing scholarship on the depiction of crowds in literature. Whereas previous surveys on the topic have predominantly focused on the crowd as a revolutionary phenomenon judged on the basis of class perspectives, or as a feature of mass society, this investigation deals specifically with reactions to the crowd in its incarnation as a manifestation of and symbol for political fascism. Drawing on a number of contemporaneous theoretical treatises on crowds and mass psychology, it seeks to demonstrate that war, extreme socio-political uph

In 2010, Simon Estok observed that, "the most immediate question ecocriticism can ask is about how our assumptions about animals affect the natural environment". In this thesis, I respond to this challenge by generating a sustained conversation between the hitherto surprisingly distinct fields of animal studies and ecocriticism. I do this by formulating a new critical concept, that of the geomorphic animal, which I use to show how literary representations of animals often expose the many complex ways in which they constitute space rather than simply inhabiting it.

Abstract:

This thesis begins with a succinct survey of theories of depiction and then turns to two highly influential contemporary philosophical accounts, namely, the aspect-recognition theory proposed by Dominic McIver Lopes, and Robert Hopkins’s experienced resemblance theory. The latter two theories of pictorial representation are presented in detail before objections to both accounts are presented and assessed. One of the central contentions of the thesis is that the aspect-recognition theory succumbs to a number of serious objections. First of all, this account rests upon a philosophically problema

Abstract:

Generally speaking depictive theories attempt to explain the experience of looking at paintings and drawings, in particular they describe the process by which a viewer makes sense of a surface that has been intentionally marked in such a way as to describe some thing in the world. Depictive theories have generally been developed with reference to figurative work where the viewer is able to recognize the depicted object(s). The aim of this thesis is to determine the extent to which they apply to non-figurative work, what is commonly referred to as abstract art, and to identify what factors can

This thesis studies how the image of homosexual people has evolved on the British stage during the present century. It aims to discern general trends rather than compile an exhaustive list of plays containing homosexual characters. Similarly, it is not intended to be a compendium of homosexual playwrights, but will focus on the contents of the drama rather than the biographical details of authors' lives. It makes no attempt to analyse work that is not ostensibly homosexual which could be argued to contain latent homosexual content. Nor, finally, does it discuss phenomena of interest in this fi

Abstract:

In 1915 Australia’s bush-bred soldier-warrior, the ‘Anzac’, wrote himself into history on the battlefields of Europe, earning a reputation as one of the world’s most fearsome and indefatigable fighters. Back home he was conscripted in an equally fierce cultural war as local film interests battled to keep Australian films on Australian screens. This thesis examines the historical prolificacy of Australian cinema to portray itself as heroic as the nation’s Anzac soldier, who is also commonly referred to as the ‘digger’.

Crossed disparity causes objects to appear in ‘close-up double vision’, due to their close proximity to an observer. Close-up double vision occurs because the viewers’ eyes cannot converge on an object that is too close to them without strain, causing disparate images of the object to be projected onto each retina which cannot be fused into a single image in depth by the brain. Close-up double vision is an often unnoticed aspect of seeing for anyone who has two eyes, and a familiar example is the observers’ nose appearing either side of their visual field.

These ideas are set out in chapter I. The first chapter also examines the social reality of widowhood in nineteenth-century Germany.
