Abstract:

Philosophy<br>Ph.D.<br>The aim of this dissertation is to examine and helpfully elucidate Kant’s proleptic philosophy of history by pursuing lines of thought across both his critical and historical body of work. A key motivation for this goal stems from noticing certain repetitive explications of Kant’s philosophy across, among other subjects, history, biology, religion, teleology, culture, and education, which, as precise and careful in their detail, all seem to converge on key Kantian ideas of teleology and morality. Rather than concentrating on any one aspect of Kant’s proleptic philosophy,

Abstract:

Utilizing film and feminist theory, traditional histories of Germany and America as well as primary source material, this paper's interdisciplinary approach exposes traditional misconceptions regarding the exiled nature of the Weimar émigrés filmmakers during the Golden Age of Hollywood. Through the construct of the New Woman, or the vamp, this paper explores the emigration to America and the ways in which it affected the filmmaking which had characterized Weimar cinema, while illustrating the changing perceptions of women through the 1920s-1940s. 1930s America would prove to be a short lived

Cyanobacterial blooms and their toxins are a major water quality and potential health risk around the world. This thesis developed an analytical method for microcystin congeners in sediments in order to examine their fate in lakes and establish the history of toxin-producing cyanobacteria in relation to environmental change using lake sediments. A novel method for both intra- and extracellular microcystins in lake sediments was developed, consisting of accelerated solvent extraction, hydrophilic-lipophilic balance solid phase extraction and multiple reaction monitoring-based HPLC-MS/MS quantit

Abstract:

This paper studies the perception of the Christian body during the second and third centuries CE. It engages with this question with the aid of early Christian literature from this time period, additionally containing a particular focus on how the Pauline theology of the body influenced later Christian bodily conceptions. By subjecting these works to a close reading and with the aid of an intertextual theory, this thesis attempts to ascertain whether this early Christian perception of the body was fractured in nature, and whether aspects of this division – if evident – can be derived from and

Abstract:

This thesis considers some of those who were killed in politically-motivated attacks, often referred to as ‘terrorism’, which took place during Italy’s anni di piombo. Six works written by victims’ children will be used as a lens through which to examine the collective memory and the victims’ place therein. In recent years, there has been a shift in the way that this period of Italian history - the anni di piombo – has been remembered. Where previously the perpetrators of the violence of those years dominated public discourse, in the last decade the principal narrative has become more victim-c

Abstract:

This study examines the attitudes to, and commemoration of, death in Wales in the period between the end of the thirteenth century and the middle of the sixteenth century by analysis of the poetical work produced during this period. In so doing, this is placed in the wider context of death and commemoration in Europe. Although there are a number of memorial tombs and some evidence of religious visual art in Wales which has survived from the late medieval period, in comparison with that to be found in many other European countries, this is often neither so commonplace nor so imposing.

La noción de destino no evoluciona desde una representación concreta a un concepto abstracto, ni al revés, sino que desde los más remotos tiempos la mente humana piensa mediante abstracciones y personificaciones.

Evolution is driven by four major processes that create, maintain, or eliminate genetic diversity within and among populations: mutation, gene flow, genetic drift, and natural selection. My thesis examines the role of demographic history and its interactions with each of these processes in impacting the evolution of populations. Demographic history can cause various states of non-equilibria in populations creating the potential to mis-inform important evolutionary inferences. Such inferences may be key for making conservation decisions in applied biology. Chapter 2 investigates methods for est

Two years after the takeover, Wei-Hai-Wei was transferred from the Admiralty and the War Office to the Colonial Office.

This dissertation examines how changes in material culture and patterns of land use recreated the landscape of Fenelon and Verulam Townships, Ontario, between 1820 and 1900. Immigrants brought new visions of the landscape, productive techniques and forms of recreation. Though they had a clear understanding of the landscape they wanted to fashion, it was largely based on experience in Britain. As settlers and Ojibwas transformed the Kawarthas, they had to adapt this foreign culture to the conditions they found.

Abstract:

Muscle tissue is grown and maintained by muscle stem cells termed satellite cells. Activated satellite cells become myoblasts, which must proliferate then differentiate into functional muscle. This process, known as myogenesis, is controlled by a cascade of epigenetic regulatory events. One facet of this regulation is histone acetylation, which can be influenced by the availability of metabolites within a cell. In this study, the ability of glucose, pyruvate, or glutamine to change histone acetylation levels in cultured myoblasts was investigated. Changing concentrations of glucose or pyruvate

Abstract:

This thesis seeks to address the literary, cultural and historical questions surrounding what I will suggest was the reconceptualization of fame in the second half of the eighteenth and the first two decades of the nineteenth centuries. The only previous analyses of celebrity in this period by Leo Braudy and by Frank Donoghue have claimed categorically that even though a democratization of fame occurred in this period only men had sufficient access to the fame machine and thus to the experience of the frenzy of renown. While I argue that this period witnessed the birth of modern concepts of ce

Abstract:

The Public Face(s) of Albinia Hobart, Countess of Buckinghamshire: Vice, Theatrics, Politics, and the Press in the twenty years between 1784 and 1804, Albinia Hobart, Countess of Buckinghamshire (1738-1816), appeared in over fifty extant satirical prints. Satirized for both her excessive girth and for her transgressive pastimes, Albinia was a constant target of the press and artists alike. While her behaviour was not unique for the period, the fact that she was involved in, and consequently satirized for, so many different types of public and semi-public activities makes Albinia an exceptional

Abstract:

PhD<br>This thesis examines the participation of British ‘soldiers of conscience’ in the Greek War of Independence, the Spanish Civil War and the Russo-Finnish War. By considering both the response of the British government to the participation of its nationals in foreign conflicts, and the perceptions and experiences of the volunteers themselves, it argues for the applicability of a legitimating ‘politics of violence’ as means for understanding the historical construction of warfare.

Abstract:

Art History<br>M.A.<br>The numerous figurated corbels of Chartres Cathedral were inscribed with semiotic content. Works in this genre were formerly disregarded by researchers because of their perceived lack of meaning. Trends in modern scholarship have challenged this misconception, and recent technological innovations have facilitated the study of these objects. The category would be more appropriately termed "secondary" rather than" marginal," as the former offers a semantically unencumbered assessment of the role of these sculptures. Originally designed for the cathedral's twelfth-century w
