Plummer, Declan. "'Music based on worth' : the conducting career of Sir Hamilton Harty." Thesis, Queen's University Belfast, 2011. http://ethos.bl.uk/OrderDetails.do?uin=uk.bl.ethos.557640.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis assesses the conducting career of Sir Hamilton Harty, particularly his conductorship with the Halle Orchestra from 1920 to 1933, and places his career in the context of the social, economic and political changes brought about by World War I, the introduction of mass culture, and the effects of the Great Depression. The thesis re-examines Harty's legacy: reviews from numerous newspapers and journals demonstrate the quality of his conducting and the supreme standards he achieved with the Halle Orchestra; and a detailed study of the Halle programmes and the orchestra's finances from 1920 to 1933 shows that, by comparison to other British orchestras, Harty was one of the most catholic conductors in Britain who laboured under particularly difficult financial restrictions. The thesis is structured in eight chapters. Chapters one to three discuss Harty's career prior to his Halle appointment in 1920. They explain how his conservative aesthetic beliefs, catholic tastes, and conducting abilities were shaped by his informal education in Ireland, the artistic limitations of Belfast and Dublin in the late nineteenth century, his career as an accompanist in Dublin and London and his engagements with the London Symphony Orchestra and the Halle Orchestra from 1911 to 1919. Chapters four to six discuss Harty's conductorship with the Halle Orchestra from 1920 and 1933, and include an examination of the orchestra's first BBC broadcasts and gramophone recordings, reviews of Harty's conducting and the structure of his programmes. Chapter seven discusses Harty's artistic beliefs, demonstrating how they represented an outdated reaction to modernism, and his conducting style, including comparisons with other contemporary conductors. Chapter eight discusses Harty's tours in America and Australia from 1931 to 1936 in detail and provides additional accounts of his conducting abilities. Appendices, music examples, figures and a select bibliography are included.

Full textAbstract:
Against the backdrop of the Gaelic Revival and the foundation of the Irish Free State Hamilton Harty plied his trade as an organist, pianist, conductor and composer. It is his compositional output that is the focus of this thesis, and, more specifically, his songs, Sea Wrack, My Lagan Love and A Cradle Song. Both Harty and Herbert Hughes wrote an accompaniment for the folk-song My Lagan Love and set to music the poem “A Cradle Song”—both Harty and Charles Villiers Stanford set to music the poem “Sea Wrack”, all of which make for an interesting comparison. The purpose of this investigation is to explore Harty’s aforementioned three works with a view to finding evidence for the development of Harty’s compositional voice. Despite the publication in 2013 of Jeremy Dibble’s substantial volume, Hamilton Harty: Musical Polymath, the opportunity remains to analyse individual works in a detailed manner. Therefore, this paper will examine features such as genre, motif, harmony, text-music relationship and Irish traditional music in the context of nationalism. It is my contention that Harty’s musical language developed a greater level of complexity as he synthesized more elements identifiable with Irish music, such as ornamentation, modal harmony, inflection and pentatonicism, in combination with word painting and musical symbolism, in the writing of recognisable genres such as a parlour song, a folk-song and a lullaby. My analysis clarifies Harty’s position on the continuum from Anglo-Irish to Irish composers and provides a response to remarks such as Raymond Warren’s claim that Harty’s nationalism was in melody alone.

Full textAbstract:
Thomas Hardy wrote during a time of extraordinary growth in British education when the purposes of learning were being passionately questioned. This thesis situates Hardy’s writing both within and beyond these debates, showing how his writing avows a Victorian fascination with education while contesting its often rigid actualization in nineteenth-century society. This project places new emphasis on the range of educationalists that Hardy counted as friends. These included the dialect poet and early-Victorian schoolmaster, William Barnes; the influential architect of the 1870s board schools, Thomas Roger Smith; and the leader of late-century reforms to female teacher training colleges, Joshua Fitch. Caught between life in rural surroundings and systemized forms of education, Hardy's characters frequently endure dislocation from community and estrangement from natural environments as penalties of their intellectual development. Much previous scholarship has for this reason claimed education as a source of despair in Hardy’s writing. However, this thesis reveals the people and experiences which rigid institutions exclude, and foregrounds Hardy’s depiction of the natural environment as an alternative source of learning. Exploring Hardy's representations of education as both reflective of contemporary change and suggestive of new possibilities, chapters focus on aspects of education most resonant with Hardy's own life and central to his fiction, including the professionalization and training of schoolmistresses, the working-class movement for liberal education, educational architecture, and rural forms of education. By exploring connections between fiction and social and political concerns, the thesis demonstrates how the idea of education relates to some key characteristics of Hardy's writing, for example the observant onlooker and the native returned.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis traces Hardy's involvement in the theatre from the 1880s to the 1920s. The narrative of Hardy's relationship with the theatre is set against an analysis of the changing nature of the stage during this period, though I acknowledge throughout the thesis the fact that Hardy's awareness of the theatre did not perfectly keep pace with its evolution. The aim of the thesis is to examine the motivations determining Hardy's work in the theatre in light of the fact that he seemed so dismissive of its efficacy. I trace the history of Hardy's adaptations of his work for the stage, before setting the scripts against the novels in order to weigh the extent to which the novels resist translation into a different medium – whether there is something integral to Hardy's plots that cannot be conveyed on stage. I have chosen to focus predominantly on material that made it beyond a rough sketch on a scrap of paper, on projects that reached the stage of rewritings and commercial negotiations - often years before they were produced. My selection has been determined by the belief that the material is indicative of the development of Hardy's understanding of the relationship between his work and the possibilities adaptation offered. My first chapter, on the history of an adaptation of 'Far From the Madding Crowd' in 1882, argues that Hardy's collaboration with J. Comyns Carr on the script was driven by his desire to assert his copyright over the novel's afterlife. The adaptation may never have been performed, but simply have been registered with the Lord Chamberlain as a deterrent against unauthorised adapters. It was the plagiarism row over Arthur Wing Pinero's possible theft of Hardy's plot in his popular pastoral play, 'The Squire', that pushed Hardy and Carr to stage their version. My second chapter looks at the history of Hardy's adaptations of 'Tess'. I am interested primarily in his writing of two scripts in the mid-1890s, and his negotiations with leading actresses in response to their interest in creating the part of Tess. The chapter then looks at the circumstances leading to the eventual staging of the play in the 1920s, focusing on the difficulties posed by producing a script which was by then thirty years old, and showing its age. In the third chapter I concentrate on plans to stage two novels, 'The Woodlanders' and 'Jude'. Neither was produced, but both are evidence of Hardy's increasing interest in the possibility of selecting from his material, rather than compressing it into the time available. The two adaptations allied Hardy much more closely with the avant garde than his earlier work had done – 'The Woodlanders' was begun in 1889 at the suggestion of J. T. Grein and C. W. Jarvis, two men who would later found the Independent Theatre, a private subscription society which pioneered the staging of Ibsen in England. Hardy's own sketches for adapting 'Jude' (1895, 1897, 1910, 1926) concentrated on Sue's position. I set Hardy’s realignment of 'Jude' against a focus on the place of women in unhappy marriages, drawing principally on Hardy's contribution to a debate about the role of wives in the 'New Review' for June 1894 and a 'Westminster Review' article by the feminist Mona Caird (August 1888), which provoked three months of debate (and 27,000 letters) in 'The Daily Telegraph' on the question 'Is Marriage a Failure?' Caird’s ideal dovetails with Sue's views on marriage as 'legalized prostitution' and her revulsion from 'the dreadful contract to feel in a particular way in a matter whose essence is its voluntariness!' The final chapter of the thesis looks at two adaptations of 'The Dynasts'. The first is a wartime entertainment staged by Harley Granville Barker in 1914, the second is Hardy's own adaptation for Dorset amateur actors (the Hardy Players) to perform in 1916, which concentrated on the impact of the war on the local populace. I then turn to the premiere of Hardy's only full-length drama written specifically for the stage – the one-act Arthurian play 'The Queen of Cornwall' (1923). I argue in this final chapter that Hardy was beginning to move from the role of reluctant adapter to that of director, conscious of the boundaries imposed by the stage and experimenting with how to craft his work to fit within them, rather than abridging his material indiscriminately.

Full textAbstract:
Thomas Hardy is the only major English novelist to have been a professional architect. In his essay, “Memories of Church Restoration,” written for the Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings (1906), it was clear that, for Hardy, architectural structures preserved the spirit of all those who had created and originally worked and lived within them. By their very presence, then, ancient and medieval buildings were historical artifacts housing the memories of past lives. This intertwining of humans and the built environment became the stuff of Hardy’s novels, short stories, poetry, and essays. Drawing on autobiographical material, including correspondence and notebooks, as well as novels and poetry, this thesis examines the various ways in which Hardy engages with ideas and debates about architecture taking place in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. While previous studies have examined the treatment of architecture in Hardy’s fiction, this thesis focuses on key figures in the architectural world and the complex role their ideas play in his work. Hardy explores a combination of ideas from leading architectural thinkers, at times offering an important synthesis to coexisting architectural ideas. I argue that Hardy saw architecture as recording centuries of memory, rooted in an instinctual life that connects humans with the natural world in an intimate way, evoking evolutionary time. In so doing he expanded the meaning of the “architectural” well beyond the confines of medievalist or classical ideas, or debates sparked by architects and critics such as A.W.N. Pugin and John Ruskin and architecture, in its broadest definition, acts as a metaphor for the way the past lives on in the present, undergoing continual processes of change; for destruction and decay; and for the way buildings undergo natural processes. The nexus of architectural ideas also allows Hardy to respond to questions of the role of art in relation to society and social communities.

Syftet med detta arbete är att undersöka hur Harry Potter-böckerna kan användas för att främja undervisning om källkritik och kritiskt tänkande inom ramen för svenskundervisningen. Detta görs genom att fyra textexempel, två ur Harry Potter och Den flammande bägaren och två ur Harry Potter och Fenixorden, analyseras utifrån läroplanerna Lgr11 och Gy11 och källkritiska principer samt fantasyspecifika teorier. Arbetet avslutas med en diskussion om de fördelar böckerna har i en klassrumskontext och i samband med undervisning om källkritik och kritiskt tänkande. Slutsatsen blir att böckerna, åtminstone i teorin, fungerar väl för detta syfte.The purpose of this essay is to examine how the Harry Potter books may be used to support teaching about source criticism and critical thinking in terms of the teaching of Swedish. This is done through four textual examples, two from Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire and two from Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, being analysed in relation to the Lgr11 and Gy11 curricula and source-critical principles as well as fantasy-specific theories. The essay concludes with a discussion about the advantages the novels have in a classroom context and in connection to teaching about source criticism and critical thinking. The conclusion is that the novels, at least in theory, work well in this context.

Full textAbstract:
Cinematic adaptations of "classic" novels have long been viewed by filmmakers and critics as vehicles for understanding the art, mind, and even the personality of the original author. By examining the film and TV adaptations of Thomas Hardy's novels and by analyzing critics' opinions on the "fidelity" of these films to Hardy, we can see that this author is popularly perceived to be a pastoralist, classical tragedian, gloomy pessimist, and ardent social critic. Though there is considerable truth in these images, they do not convey all of who Hardy was and what his novels convey. Moreover, these perceptions of Hardy actually have their roots in the earliest reviews of his novels, and they have been largely reinforced by the decades of criticism that followed. But Hardy's novels actually resist simple classifications: they are multi-generic and are constantly involved in the process of deploying and questioning the language that is used by the characters and by the readers to construct a sense of reality. Since Hardy's novels are continually interrogating language and genres, they border on being self-destructive and incoherent. The function of some literary criticism of Hardy has often been to make his novels coherent and easy to understand, and to a large extent literary critics have created their own "versions" of the novels that have often become accepted by general culture. In chapters on the individual novels, this study isolates the critical histories of Far from the Madding Crowd, Tess of the d'Urbervilles, and Jude the Obscure; critically reads the novels to determine both how they give rise to and challenge popular and critical assumptions; and utilizes Barthean-derived theories on intertextuality and film adaptation to consider how filmmakers have intercepted not only Hardy's plots, but the critical interpretations of his novels, to replicate and codify on the screen familiar images of Hardy. The film and TV versions of Hardy's novels are both reflections of how these works traditionally have been read and perceived, and reflectors on how Hardy's novels continue to be read.

Full textAbstract:
ABSTRACT This paper contrasts J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter series in the English original with its Swedish translation, by Lena Fries-Gedin. After an initial presentation of related research, some concepts such as implied narrator, implied reader, as well as intertextuality in translation and dual audience in children’s literature are explained. These concepts are applied to the two bodies of text to examine if they are identical in both the English and the Swedish versions. Some translational strategies are presented, and looking at examples from the texts it is discerned which strategies are being used. The Swedish translation’s use of formal ‘you’ to reflect the quality of inter-character relationships is discussed and examined, and the portrayal of sociolects in the original and translation are compared, concluding that the dialects are transformed into average spoken Swedish, and that adolescent speech is only partially transposed from the English original. There is also a comparison of differences in register, where the mentioned examples show that there is a loss of fluidity in style, and that the tone of the Swedish text is more dated than the English text. Some comparisons to other translations of Harry Potter are made, citing examples from other research, to view the Swedish translation in an international context. A brief comparison of the graphic design differences of layout is discussed, concluding that the Swedish design is likely more appealing to children.

Dillion, Jacqueline M. "Thomas Hardy : folklore and resistance." Thesis, University of St Andrews, 2014. http://hdl.handle.net/10023/5156.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis examines a range of folkloric customs and beliefs that play a pivotal role in Hardy's fiction: overlooking, sympathetic magic, hag-riding, tree ‘totemism', skimmington-riding, bonfire nights, mumming, May Day celebrations, Midsummer divination, and the ‘Portland Custom'. For each of these, it offers a background survey bringing the customs or beliefs forward in time into Victorian Dorset, and examines how they have been represented in written texts – in literature, newspapers, county histories, folklore books, the work of the Folklore Society, archival documents, and letters – in the context of Hardy's repeated insistence on the authenticity of his own accounts of these traditions. In doing so, the thesis both explores Hardy's work, primarily his prose fiction, as a means to understand the ‘folklore' (a word coined in the decade of Hardy's birth) of southwestern England, and at the same time reconsiders the novels in the light of the folkloric elements. The thesis also argues that Hardy treats folklore in dynamic ways that open up more questions and tensions than many of his contemporaries chose to recognise. Hardy portrays folkloric custom and belief from the perspective of one who has lived and moved within ‘folk culture', but he also distances himself (or his narrators) by commenting on folkloric material in contemporary anthropological terms that serve to destabilize a fixed (author)itative narrative voice. The interplay between the two perspectives, coupled with Hardy's commitment to showing folk culture in flux, demonstrates his continuing resistance to what he viewed as the reductive ways of thinking about folklore adopted by prominent folklorists (and personal friends) such as Edward Clodd, Andrew Lang, and James Frazer. This thesis seeks to explore these tensions and to show how Hardy's efforts to resist what he described as ‘excellently neat' answers open up wider cultural questions about the nature of belief, progress, and change.

Představovat Harryho Pottera je vcelku zbytečné, neboť v dnešní době snad už neexistuje nikdo, kdo by o něm ještě nikdy neslyšel. Zcela mimořádný úspěch značky Harry Potter je na jedné straně bezpochyby primárně zásluhou kvalitního výrobku. Na druhé straně nutno přiznat, že bez dobré komunikace by i tento zajímavý, a zajisté kvalitní literární produkt, mohl zůstat v mase dětské literatury zcela nepovšimnut. Kladu si tedy za cíl pokusit se zmapovat prostředky, jakými je tak úspěšná značka komunikována, určit faktory, které hrály zásadní význam na cestě k jejímu celosvětovému úspěchu a následně odpovědět na otázku, zda je možné úspěch značky zopakovat, a pokud ano, tak za jakých předpokladů.Teoretickou část své práce uvádím charakteristikou přitažlivého příběhu, který stál na začátku. Dále popisuji narůstající úspěch jeho knižní podoby, a následně i jeho filmového zpracování. Obecnou definicí značky a komunikačních prostředků obracím pozornost na vznik značky Harry Potter a na prostředky (média), jimiž jsou komunikovány její dvě hlavní složky, knihy a filmy. Ostatní složky, jako hračky, oblečení, videohry, zábavní park aj., opomíjím, neboť jsou složkami okrajovými, ze značky profitujícími. V praktické části své práce se pokusím analyzovat jednotlivé komunikační prostředky používané při propagaci značky Harry Potter ve světě, především ve Velké Británii a Spojených státech, zemích z hlediska komunikační strategie značky určujících, s přihlédnutím ke komunikaci v České republice. Jelikož komunikace obou hlavních složek značky, knih a filmů, probíhá striktně odděleně, analyzuji použití jednotlivých komunikačních prostředků zvlášť u knih a zvlášť u filmů.

O acervo encontra-se depositado no Núcleo de Literatura e Memória (NULIME), do curso de Pós-Graduação em Literatura da Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina. O levantamento destes itens documentais arrolados nesta pesquisa, consiste num sistema organizacional arranjado em séries, conforme segue: 01) Correspondência pessoal; subséries: correspondência passiva e correspondência ativa; 02) Correspondência de terceiros; 03) Correspondência familiar; 04) Produção intelectual do titular; subséries: Originais, e Cadernos/diários; 05) Produção intelectual de terceiros; subséries: Em revistas e jornais; e Encontro de escritores; 06) Documentos pessoais; 07) Diversos; subséries: Catálogos de exposições, e Outros documentos; 08) Produção na Imprensa; subséries: artigos do Correio da Manhã; artigos do JB; revista Veja; artigos do Diário de São Paulo; artigos do jornal A Notícia; artigos do Diário Catarinense; artigos do jornal O Estado; e De Autoria de terceiros. Trata-se, portanto, da busca do material já catalogado e a anexação de outros. Dessa forma, a existência do catálogo do acervo de Harry Laus constituir-se-á em importante fonte de consulta para pesquisas literárias, elaborações de edições críticas, sobretudo os estudos universitários, sendo que o rol de documentos que compõem este catálogo constitui-se em importante subsídio para trabalhos acadêmicos. E ainda a ampla divulgação da obra do escritor. Utilizamos como reflexão teórica Mal de arquivo, expressão cunhada por Jacques Derrida (2001) em seu livro homônimo, fazendo um recorte diante desta compulsão, desse desejo de memória, na busca incessante do arquivável, selecionando e recalcando as marcas deixadas na superfície ou na espessura de uma inscrição em um suporte.
This work aims at cataloguing the entirety of extant documentation pertaining to the Brazilian writer (born in Santa Catarina state), Harry Laus. The state is kept at Nucleo de Literatura e Memória (NULIME) the center of literare memory of the post-graduation course in literature at the Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina(Brazil). The assembled documentation comprised in this research work is set down in series, as follows: 1) Personal correspondence comprising the subserials; 2) Received correspondence, sent correspondence, correspondence of the writer; 3) Familial correspondence; 4) Intelelctual production of the writer: subseries: Unpublished, and Notebook/diary; 5) Published intellectual production of third parties; subseries: in weekly magazines and newspapers and in Writers meeting; 6) Personal papers; 7) Productions of the newspaper: subseries: Catalogues of exhibitions, and others documents; 8) press clippings. articles at the newspapers Correio da Manha, Jornal do Brasil JB, the weekly magazine Veja, weekly articles at the Diario de Sao Paulo, at A Notícia; at Diário Catarinense; at O Estado; and Autorship of third parties. The work comprises material both already catalogued and new one. So being, the availability of a catalogue comprising the Harry Laus state will become an important source for both literary research work, and elaboration of critical editions and, above all, for collegial work. The entirety of the extant documentation may assist academic works. Not to mention a more comprehensive acquaintanceship with the writers works. The work has started with a theoretical reflection on the archive sickness, an expression coined by Jacques Derrida (2001) in his homonymous book. Underlining the existing compulsion, hunger for memories, the constant search of the fileable, both selecting and strengthening the marks left on the surface or on the bulk of a registered fact.

Esta tese se insere na área de tradução comentada de textos literários e se baseia na minha tradução para o português dos contos "The withered arm", "Barbara of the House of Grebe" e "An imaginative woman", do escritor inglês Thomas Hardy (1840-1928), tendo como intuito propor uma discussão a respeito de algumas questões de tradução de prosa, a saber, a cadeia de significantes, hipotipose e dialeto. A tradução é precedida por um estudo prévio sobre o autor e sobre os aspectos mais importantes de sua obra e por uma apreciação da ficção de Hardy traduzida no Brasil. Em seguida, apresento os contos traduzidos e os respectivos comentários da tradução
The area of research of this thesis is literary translation with commentary and it is based on my own translation into Portuguese of the short stories #The withered arm#, #Bárbara of the House of Grebe#, and #An imaginative woman# by Thomas Hardy (1840-1928). In the commentaries, I draw attention to some matters in prose translation, such as underlying networks of signification, hypotyposis, and dialect. My translation is preceded by a study on the writer and on the most important aspects of his work, and by an analysis of Hardy#s fictional work translated into Brazilian Portuguese. Finally, I present the translation of the short stories and the commentaries on the translation

Full textAbstract:
Huvudsyftet med studien är att genom fyra djupintervjuer granska några unga läsares syn på Harry
Potter och den kritik som framförts gentemot fenomenet, alltså att framhålla ungdomarnas röst, som
en motpol till de vuxna som har kritiserat böckerna. Ett annat syfte är även att lyfta fram böckernas
betydelse inom medieundervisning, då de idag är mer än bara böcker och oftast en del av den
transmedialisering, där böcker blir film och där böcker inte säljs utan medieuppbåd. I uppsatsen
presenteras fyra av de många kritiska åsikter som framförts gentemot Harry Potter-böckerna och
dessa kommenteras och diskuteras av fyra ungdomar i 17-årsåldern. De fyra kritiska åsikterna
gäller; magiinslaget i böckerna; rädsla för att de som inte läser böckerna skall känna sig utanför;
den sneda familjebilden; samt de stereotypa könsrollerna. De fyra informanterna, två pojkar och två
flickor, reagerar i stort sett likadant gentemot dessa. I sammandrag tycker de att kritiken är överdriven
men de har alla en förståelse för att böckerna kan bli kritiserade. De uttrycker alla en oro för att
barn kan bli negativt påverkade av böckerna, men tycker samtidigt att de själva inte blivit påverkade,
trots att de själva började läsa böckerna då de var barn. Slutsatsen för arbetet är i korthet att
kritik gentemot Harry Potter-böckerna inte påverkar hur dessa ungdomar betraktar dem, och de
anser att kritik mot böckerna snarare ökar intresset för böckerna än motsatsen.
The main purpose of the study is by doing four interviews looking at some young people’s views
of Harry Potter and the criticism that has been brought up against the phenomenon. In doing so,
attention is called to the voice of the young people as an antipole to the adults that have been criticizing
the books. Another purpose is to bring forward the importance of books in media-education,
because of the fact that today books are not only books and often a part of media phenomena expanding
over different kinds of media, where books become movies and where books do not sell
without support from the media. In the composition four of the many critical opinions against the
Harry Potter-books are presented and these are commented and discussed by four seventeen year
olds. The four critical opinions are about; the magical aspects of the books; fear that the ones not
reading the books will be outsiders; the askew family images; and the stereotypical gender roles.
All four informants, two boys and two girls, react basically in the same way against these criticisms.
To sum up, they all feel that the criticism is exaggerated but still they all have an understanding
of why the books might be criticized. They all express worry over the fact that children
might be affected negatively, even though they themselves were children when they started reading
the books. The conclusion is, in short, that criticism against the Harry Potter-books does not affect
how these young people look at them, and they think that criticism against the books rather increases
the interest for them, than the opposite.

Full textAbstract:
This is a study about adaptation, focusing on the first book in the series about Harry Potter and the movie version of the book. The study examines whether any of the characters change when the book is adapted to another type of medium. For example, are there any character traits that are revealed differently in the book versus the movie? The materials that have been used are works of reference, the first book about Harry Potter and also the film of the book. Some of the literature has already been read prior to the study but will still be needed as the study continues.By the end of the study there should be some results to be shown. The primary purpose of the study is to clarify the differences and similarities that can appear when a work is transferred, for example, from book to film.

Harry Potter och värdegrunden - Hur Harry Potter kan användas i arbetet om värdegrunden för skolans år 4-6, syftade till att undersöka vilken värdegrund som går att utläsa i Harry Potter och de vises sten. Undersökningen utgick från de tre kategorierna människans frihet och integritet, alla människors lika värde och jämställdhet mellan kvinnor och män. Vidare undersöktes huruvida den gestaltade värdegrunden förhåller sig till den svenska skolans värdegrund, Lgr 11. Studien utgick från en kvalitativ textanalys med ett hermeneutiskt förhållningssätt där händelser i boken citerades och analyserades ur ett värdegrundsperspektiv. Studien utgick främst från skolmiljön i boken om Harry Potter, där samspelet mellan elever sinsemellan och mellan elever och lärare för att lyfta fram beteenden som går emot den svenska skolans värdegrund. Dessa citat och analyser är tänkta att inspirera undervisningen för att tydligare förankra värdegrunden i undervisningen, och att eleverna med detta ska få en större förståelse för varandra oberoende av kön, etnicitet och klass.Godkänt datum 2021-01-17

The translation of a fantasy book is no easy task. Every fantasy author creates not only new characters but also new places, creatures and objects: J.K. Rowling invented a whole universe that lasted seven books and eight movies, and that has changed the lives of many children all over the world. The aim of this dissertation is to dig underneath Harry's adventures, to rediscover his origins and to analyse the choices operated by the Italian translators, who had the important task to make this universe accessible to families who could not read about it in English.

This work is divided into two parts. In the first part, our goal is to present the theory of Hardy Spaces Hp(Rn), which coincides with the Lebesgue space Lp(Rn) for p > 1, is strictly contained in Lp(Rn) if p = 1, and is a space of distributions when 0 < p < 1. When 0 < p ^ 1, the Hardy spaces offers a better treatment involving harmonic analysis than the Lp spaces. Among other results, we prove the maximal characterization theorem of Hp, which gives equivalent definitions of Hp, based on different maximal functions. We will proof the atomic decom¬position theorem for Hp, which allow decompose any distribution in Hp to be written as a sum of Hp-atoms (measurable functions that satisfy certain properties). In this step, we use the strongly the of Whitney decomposition and generalized Calderon-Zygmund decomposition. In the second part, as a application, we will prove that nonlinear quantities (such as the Jacobian, divergent and rotational defined in Rn) identied by the compensated compactness theory belong, under natural conditions, the Hardy spaces. To this end, in addition to the results seen in the first part, will use the results as Sobolev immersions theorems ans the inequality Sobolev-Poincare. Furthermore, we will use the tings and results related to the context of differential forms.
Esse trabalho está dividido em duas partes.Na primeira, nosso objetivo e apresentar os espaços de Hardy Hp(Rn), o qual coincide com os espaços Lp(Rn), quando p > 1, esta estritamente contido em Lp(Rn) se p = 1, e e um espaço de distribuições quando 0 < p < 1. Quando 0 < p < 1, os espaços de Hardy oferecem um melhor tratamento envolvendo analise harmônica do que os espaços Lp(Rn). Entre outros resultados, provamos o teorema da caracterização maximal de Hp, o qual fornece varias, porem equivalentes, formas de caracterizar Hp, com base em diferentes funcões maximais. Demonstramos o teorema da decomposição atômica para Hp, 0 < p < 1, que permite decompor qualquer distribuição em Hp como soma de Hp-atomos (funções mensuráveis que satisfazem certas propriedades). Nessa etapa, usamos fortemente a de- composição de Whitney e a decomposto de Calderon-Zygmund generalizada. Na segunda parte, como uma aplicação, provamos que quantidades não-lineares (como o jacobiano, divergente e o rotacional definidos em Rn), identificadas pela teoria compacidade compensada pertencem, em condições naturais, aos espaços de Hardy. Para tanto, além dos resultados visto na primeira parte, usamos outros como os Teoremas de Imersões de Sobolev, a desigualdade de Sobolev-Poincaré. Usamos ainda, definições e resultados referentes ao contexto de formas diferenciais.

The present work aims to present an example of linear a functional defined on a dense subspace of the Hardy space H1(Rn) to be built, with the intention of showing that despite the fact that this functional is uniformly bounded on all atoms, it does not extend to a bounded functional on the whole H1(Rn). This example was published by Bownik, M.B [2]. Therefore, this shows that in general is not enough to verify that an operator or a functional is bounded on atoms to conclude that it extends boundedly to the whole space. The construction is based on the fact due to Y. Meyer [1] which states that quasi-norms corresponding to finite and infinite atomic decomposition in Hp(Rn), 0 < p 6 1 are not equivalent. On the other hand it will be given a necessary and suficient condition for when and operator T defined in a dense Hardy subspace Hp(Rn) for 0 < p 6 1 is bounded extended. Such conditions were published by D. Yang and Y. Zhou [3].
Neste trabalho apresentaremos um exemplo de um funcional linear definido em um subespaço denso do espaço de Hardy H1(Rn), o qual apesar de ser uniformemente limitado sobre todos os átomos tal funcional não se estende limitadamente sobre o espaço H1(Rn). Este exemplo foi publicado por Bownik, M.B [2]. Por conseguinte, isto mostra que, em geral, não é suficiente verificar que um operador ou funcional limitado em átomos, para concluir que tal funcional ou operador se estende limitadamente ao espaço todo. A construção é baseada em Y. Meyer [1] que afirma que as semi-normas correspondente a decomposição atômica finita e a decomposição atômica infinita em Hp(Rn), 0 < p 6 1 não são equivalentes. Por outro lado, daremos uma condição necessária e suficiente de quando um operador linear T definido em um subespaço denso do espaço de Hardy Hp(Rn) para p 2 (0; 1] pode ser estendido limitadamente. Tais condições foram publicadas por D. Yang e Y. Zhou [3].

Full textAbstract:
Thesis (MPhil)--Stellenbosch University, 2004.ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The Harry Potter series is currently one of the most popular book series for children in the world. The original British books have been translated into more than three hundred languages - one of them being Afrikaans, for which the Afrikaans translator received two translation prizes. Yet closer investigation reveals that these translations are not written in idiomatic Afrikaans, mostly due to the phenomenon of 'interference'. This phenomenon entails an excessive influence of the linguistic structures of the source text on that of the target text. The influence of the English source text on the Afrikaans translator by means of interference was of such an extent that the texts have been written in unnatural language, called 'translationese'. In this study the influence of interference on the quality of the Afrikaans translations of Harry Potter is examined. The focus is on books 4 and 5 in the series, namely Harry Potter en die Beker vol Vuur and Harry Potter en die Orde van die Feniks. The basic premises of the functionalistic approach to translation are used to emphasise the importance of the translation skopos, the function that the translation has to fulfil in the target culture, a detailed translation brief as well as the translator's loyalty towards the various role players in the translation process. Descriptive translation studies is used to prove the apparent absence of knowledge of translation norms as well as translation decisions and strategies that had to be considered carefully during the production of the Afrikaans translations. The researcher hereby attempts to emphasise the importance of careful consideration and planning of translation strategies. Cognisance of the functionalistic and descriptive premises would have lead to a more natural translation that communicates optimally with the target readers in the target culture.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die Harry Potter-reeks is tans een van die mees gesogte kinderreeksboeke ter wêreld. Die oorspronklike Britse boeke is in meer as driehonderd tale vertaal - onder andere ook in Afrikaans, waarvoor die Afrikaanse vertaler reeds twee vertaalpryse ontvang het. Tog toon nadere ondersoek dat hierdie vertalings inderwaarheid nie in idiomatiese Afrikaans vertaal is nie, hoofsaaklik weens die verskynsel 'interferensie'. Hierdie verskynsel behels 'n oormatige invloed van die linguistiese strukture van die brontaal op die doeltaal. Die Engelse bronteks het sodanige invloed op die Afrikaanse vertaler gehad, dat die teks weens interferensie in onnatuurlike taal geskryf is, oftewel in 'translationese'. In hierdie studie word die invloed van interferensie op die kwaliteit van die Afrikaanse Harry Potter-vertalings, spesifiek boeke 4 en 5 in die reeks, naamlik Harry Potter en die Beker vol Vuur en Harry Potter en die Orde van die Feniks, ondersoek. Die basiese uitgangspunte van die funksionalistiese benadering tot vertaling word gebruik om die noodsaaklikheid van 'n vooropstelling van die vertaalskopos, die funksie wat die vertaling in die doelkultuur moet speel, die belangrikheid van 'n gedetailleerde vertaalopdrag asook lojaliteit van die vertaler aan die onderskeie rolspelers in die vertaalproses uit te lig. Deskriptiewe vertaalstudie word gebruik om die klaarblyklike afwesigheid van 'n kennis van vertaalnorme, asook van weldeurdagte besluite en vertaalstrategieë tydens die produksie van die Afrikaanse vertalings te bewys. Die navorser poog om hierdeur op die noodsaaklikheid van weldeurdagte en beplande vertaalstrategieë klem te lê. Kennis van die funksionalistiese en deskriptiewe uitgangspunte sou kon lei tot 'n natuurliker vertaling wat optimaal met die doellesers in die doelkultuur kommunikeer.

Full textAbstract:
In the field of research within film studies which consider how aspects such as gender or race affect the portrayal of a character, the aspect of characters' body sizes are not always taken into account. By analysing the fat characters in the popular children's and young adult film series about Harry Potter, I bring attention to the fact that the use of stereotypes is significant in these characterisations, and further contributes to the marginalisation of this particular group of people. I looked specifically at what the characters had in common with each other, and if they adhered to already established stereotypes concerning fat people, and found that the one thing they all share is a lack of academic or intellectual skill to varying degrees, which is in line with the common stereotypes of fat people as dumb. I further analysed the differences between the fat men and fat women in the series, and found that fat men were a far more common occurrence than fat women, and that fat girls did not even exist in these stories. This is not surprising, as the exclusion of fat women and girls is abundant in mainstream culture.

Full textAbstract:
Tässä tutkimuksessa käsitellään lastenkirjallisuutta, kirjallisuuden nimistöntutkimusta, Harry Potter -kirjasarjan henkilöhahmojen sukupuolisuutta sekä henkilönnimistön ilmentämää sukupuolisuutta. Tutkimuksen teoriaosuudessa käsitellään ensin mainittuja ja analyysiosio koostuu henkilönnimistön sukupuolisuuden tarkastelusta. Ensisijainen tutkimuskysymys on “Miten Harry Potter -sarjan henkilönnimistö ilmentää sukupuolisuutta?” ja toissijaiset ovat “Millaista on kirjallisuuden ja erityisesti lastenkirjallisuuden nimistöntutkimus?” ja “Millaisia sukupuolirepresentaatioita Harry Potter -kirjasarjassa esiintyy?” Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena on tutkia ja tulkita henkilönnimistön äännerakennetta, etymologiaa ja konnotaatioita sukupuolisuuden näkökulmasta.
Tutkimuksen teoreettinen osio muodostuu siis kolmesta pääkappaleesta: Lastenkirjallisuudesta, nimistöntutkimuksesta ja sarjan sukupuolittuneisuuden tarkastelusta. Ensimmäinen, lastenkirjallisuutta käsittelevä kappale, toimii kattokappaleena kahdelle seuraavalle ja siinä käsitellään lyhyesti lastenkirjallisuuden määritelmää, tutkimusta, sukupuolisuutta sekä fantasiakirjallisuutta. Kappaleen tarkoituksena on konseptualisoida tutkimuksen asemaa tämän hetkisessä tutkimuskentässä. Toinen, nimistöntutkimusta käsittelevä kappale, kertoo ensin nimistöntutkimuksesta yleisesti siirtyen sitten kaunokirjallisuuden nimistöntutkimukseen, lastenkirjallisuuden nimistöntutkimukseen sekä nimien sukupuolisuuteen. Kolmannessa teoriaosiossa käsitellään Harry Potter -sarjan mies- ja naiskuvia yleisesti sekä sivu- ja päähenkilöiden ilmentämiä sukupuolirepresentaatioita.
Tutkimus on teoreettinen ja tutkimuksen kohteena on Harry Potter -sarjan seitsemän kirjaa: Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Harry Potter and the Order of Phoenix, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince sekä Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Tutkimuksen analyysiosioon valikoitui näiden kirjojen henkilönnimistöstä tärkeimmät 17 nimeä, jotka on jaoteltu kategorioihin sen perusteella, miten niissä ilmenee sukupuolisuutta ilmeneviä piirteitä. Näiden piirteiden tueksi on otettu kirjallisuusviitteitä.
Tärkeimpinä tuloksina voidaan mainita, että nimet muodostavat sukupuolisuutta ilmentävän skaalan, jolle ne sijoittuvat riippuen maskuliinisuuden tai feminiinisyyden ilmenemisestä. Naisten nimissä esiintyy luontoviitteisistä nimistä nimenomaan kukkien nimiä ja ovat muutoinkin etymologialtaan valkoisuuteen tai pyhyyteen viittaavia. Miesten nimissä luontoviitteisyyteen liittyy enemmän eläinaiheisia nimiä. Lisäksi on huomattava, ettei miesten nimien sijoittuminen skaalalle vastaa sukupuolisuutta käsittelevässä teorialuvussa tehtävää jakoa hegemonisen maskuliinisuuden ja ei-hegemonisen maskuliinisuuden välillä, ja että naisten nimien kohdalla feminiinisyyttä pyritään “vaimentamaan” käyttäen lempinimeä.

We extend two multiplier theorems, the first by Taibleson and Weiss and the second by Baernstein and Sawyer, to the anisotropic setting. Lastly, we characterize the Fourier transforms of Hardy spaces and show that all multipliers are necessarily continuous.

Este estudo abarca a intersecção dos Estudos da Tradução com a Literatura Infantojuvenil investigando, mais especificamente a tradução de gírias presentes em três dos sete volumes que compõe a série britânica Harry Potter (ROWLING, 1997, 2000, 2005) e como essas traduções impactaram no registro do texto. O arcabouço teórico adotado foi o dos Estudos Descritivos da Tradução e o arcabouço metodológico foi o dos Estudos da Tradução com base em Corpus. Para cumprir seus objetivos, esta pesquisa utiliza-se de um corpus paralelo bilíngue unidirecional inglês britânico-português brasileiro alinhado no nível de parágrafo processado com o programa Para Conc (BARLOW, 2001). A análise de dados levou em consideração a(s) técnica(s) de tradução usadas e como o uso dessas técnicas impactou no registro do texto de chegada em relação ao texto de partida a partir da observação dos seguintes subparâmetros do registro: personagem, campo, relações entre os participantes da interação e o modo. A partir da análise, constatou-se que em 42% dos casos analisados as gírias foram mantidas e em 58% as gírias foram padronizadas no texto de chegada. Nos casos em que a gíria foi mantida, os subparâmetros analisados do texto de partida e de chegada foram bastante semelhantes. É possível dizer, então, que o registro apresentou diferenças no texto de chegada em relação ao texto de partida, uma vez que houve a padronização das gírias em alguns casos e, portanto, o texto foi levado em direção a um maior nível de formalidade e houve a diminuição na coesão entre os membros de cada grupo de personagens. Uma possível conclusão é que a padronização parcial de gírias está relacionada às dificuldades em encontrar gírias na cultura de chegada com funções semelhantes às do texto original. Finalmente, é importante notar que a manutenção de gírias na tradução de Literatura Infantojuvenil é essencial devido ao fato de que esses elementos representam o discurso de uma faixa etária que ainda luta por um sentimento de pertença a uma determinada comunidade (isto é, "signo de grupo").
Abstract : This study investigates the intersection between Translation Studies and Children's Literature. More specifically, it investigates the practice of the Brazilian translator trough the observation of translation techniques regarding the translation of slang words in three of the seven volumes that are part of the Bristish series Harry Potter (ROWLING, 1997, 2000, 2005) and how these practices influence the text register. The theoretical framework of Descriptive Translation Studies and the methodological framework of Corpus-based Translation Studies were adopted. To fulfil its purposes this research uses a British English-Brazilian Portuguese unidirectional bilingual parallel corpus aligned at the paragraph level processed using ParaConc software (BARLOW, 2001). The data analysis included the analysis of translation techniques and how these techniques have influence translation shifts in the target text register in relation to the source text, taking into consideration the following subparameters of register: character, field, relations between the participants and mode. The data analysis has shown that from a total of 75 slang words, 42% of the instances analyzed were maintained in the target text and 58% was erased. In the cases in which slang was maintained the subparameters of the source and target text register analyzed were very similar. It is possible to say, thus, that the translated text register has shown differences in relation to the source text, since there was the standardization of slang words in some cases and, therefore, a greater level of formality and a decrease in the cohesiviness between the members of each group of characters. One possible conclusion is that the partial standardization of slang words is related to the difficulties in finding slang words in the target culture with similar functions to those of the source text. Finally, it is important to note that the maintance of slang words in the translation of Children's Literature is essential due to the fact that these elements represent the speech of an age group still struggling for a sense of belonging to a particular community (i.e. "signo de grupo" [group sign]).

Full textAbstract:
The principal objects of study in this thesis are the noncommutative Hardy algebras introduced by Muhly and Solel in 2004, also called simply ``Hardy algebras,'' and their quotients by ultraweakly closed ideals. The Hardy algebras form a class of nonselfadjoint dual operator algebras that generalize the classical Hardy algebra, the noncommutative analytic Toeplitz algebras introduced by Popescu in 1991, and other classes of operator algebras studied in the literature.
It is known that a quotient of a noncommutative analytic Toeplitz algebra by a weakly closed ideal can be represented completely isometrically as the compression of the algebra to the complement of the range of the ideal, but there is no known general extension of this result to Hardy algebras. An analogous problem on representing quotients of Hardy algebras as compressions of images of induced representations is considered in Chapter 2. Using Muhly and Solel's generalization of Beurling's theorem together with factorizations of weakly continuous linear functionals on infinite multiplicity operator spaces, it is shown that compressing onto the complement of the range of an ultraweakly closed ideal in the space of an infinite multiplicity induced representation yields a completely isometric isomorphism of the quotient.
A generalization of Pick's interpolation theorem for elements of Hardy algebras evaluated on their spaces of representations was proved by Muhly and Solel. In Chapter 3, a general theory of reproducing kernel W*-correspondences and their multipliers is developed, generalizing much of the classical theory of reproducing kernel Hilbert space. As an application, it is shown using the generalization of Pick's theorem that the function space representation of a Hardy algebra is isometrically isomorphic (with its quotient norm) to the multiplier algebra of a reproducing kernel W*-correspondence constructed from a generalization of the Szegõ kernel on the unit disk. In Chapter 4, properties of polynomial approximation and analyticity of these functions are studied, with special attention given to the noncommutative analytic Toeplitz algebras.
In the final chapter, the canonical curvatures for a class of Hermitian holomorphic vector bundles associated with a C*-correspondence are computed. The Hermitian metrics are closely related to the generalized Szegõ kernels, and when specialized to the disk, the bundle is the Cowen-Douglas bundle associated with the backward shift operator.
