Abstract:
Questa tesi si propone di esaminare la rappresentazione di diversità, xenofobia, razzismo e pratiche di esclusione in due serie TV di fantascienza di recente produzione: Humans (Sam Vincent e Jonathan Brackley, Channel 4 e AMC, UK e USA, 3 stagioni, 24 episodi, 2015-2018) e The Aliens (Fintan Ryan, E4, 1 stagione, 6 episodi, 2016). Entrambe le serie sono ambientate nel Regno Unito, in un presente alternativo in cui oltre agli umani è presente un’altra specie umanoide senziente: androidi nel primo caso, alieni nel secondo. In entrambe le serie, il gruppo di non-umani è costretto ad una posizion

Abstract:
Based in the modern day San Francisco Bay Area, these two stories intend to utilize “outsider”-labeled protagonists to portray de-familiarized accounts of two specific Bay Area realities. “Drought Measures” depicts a new student at a diverse and de-facto segregated public high school, following her as she learns to navigate the unspoken status quo of a long-entrenched racial divide. This story is neither a commentary on nor a critique of contemporary racial issues, but rather a portrayal of some of the many ways in which socioeconomic status and race inform day-to-day interactions.

Cette thèse interroge les représentations de la diversité et des identités collectives au sein de séries télévisées françaises et britanniques.

Abstract:
This thesis contributes to the burgeoning field of the history of sexuality in New Zealand and seeks to distill the more theorised and reflexive understanding of the subjectively understood queer male identity since 1948. Emerging from the disciplines of History and English, this project draws from a range of narratological materials: parliamentary debates contained in Hansard, and novels and short stories written by men with publicly avowed queer identities. This thesis explores how both 'normative' identity and the category of 'the homosexual' were constructed and mobilised in the public dom

Abstract:
This thesis investigates the language used in six fictional television series (1997 – 2014). The overall aim is to find out how linguistic patterns contribute to distinguishing features of characters and character groups. Throughout the thesis, I answer three overarching questions: 1.How are individual linguistic variables used for purposes of characterization? 2.How do linguistic variables interact to create linguistic character styles? 3.Are characterization patterns used in similar ways across characters within individual series, as well as across series?

Mais la présentation du contrat en droit pénal par le simple constat de solutions autonomes ne peut suffire, qui ne permet pas de déterminer, de manière positive et rationnelle, ce en quoi le contrat consiste en droit pénal.En refusant de lui transposer l’ensemble du régime contractuel, le droit
