Abstract:
Heraldry, heralds and the Earl Marshal played a conspicuous part in English life during the period c.1480-1603. This thesis explores their significance in the military, diplomatic and court cultures of the period. In four thematic parts, it seeks to reveal their crucial importance in the politics and government of the period. The first section explores the changing status of royal heraldry and heralds, as chivalric culture took on a more monarchical bent and ideas of sovereignty crystallized. It attempts to demonstrate how the royal coat of anus and heralds became emblems of sovereign authority and imperial kingship. The second section investigates the role of heralds in war, politics and diplomacy, exploring the divers ways in which they were employed at home and abroad. It endeavours to explain the relative decline of their international responsibilities, and the persistence of their domestic functions. The third section examines how reforms at the English court and changes in the heralds' . internal affairs helped to re orient their activities towards armorial matters. It looks at the reasons why grants of arms, noble funerals and heraldic visitations came gradually to dominate the heralds' activities, and how the intersection of patronage and ideology drove changes to the rules governing the bearing of anus. The fourth section examines how one of the great officers of state, the Earl Marshal, exploited his military and heraldic jurisdiction for political advancement during the sixteenth century. It seeks to show how a symbiotic relationship between the heralds and the Earl Marshal gradually developed, driven by needs of patronage and mutual interest.

Abstract:
This thesis investigates how societal change is represented and negotiated in Weimar Republic journals. I advance the idea that journals serve as unique crystallisations of the negotiation of social change within social communities due to their inherent periodicity, polyphony and materiality. I elucidate how these journals function, both as material objects with their own specific identities and within Weimar society more generally. To do so, I examine six selected journals: Die Weltbühne, Kladderadatsch, Simplicissimus, Die Gartenkunst, Sport im Bild and Fürs Haus. Together, these journals cover a wide range of bourgeois communities, exemplifying a multiplicity of strategies in order to negotiate the challenges posed by modernisation to their communal identities as well as to the individual identities of their creators and readers. This thesis thus establishes a history of small steps visible in the continuous development of the journals' content and material form, offering an understanding of history as a continuous development of social practices rather than a history of caesuras and breaks. Accordingly, I propose that journals tell us about culture, their material Eigenlogik setting them apart from newspaper and book alike. I then develop a notion of culture as dynamic and of journal communities as communities of practice. Next, I provide a case study of the Simplicissimus's communal practices materialised in shifts of its editorial content and material form, before generalising these findings to include non-authorial voices in advertisements and letters to the editor. Finally, I investigate the negotiation of modernisation in the form of sport and the "New Woman" in the journals, highlighting the concurrency of discourse and active participation, and the coexistence of rejection and incorporation. Ultimately, Weimar journal communities exhibit a continuity of social practices and identities that span from the Kaiserreich to Nazi Germany, both negotiating and furthering modernisation in the process.

Full text
Abstract:
This dissertation aims (a) to explore the shape and nature of Paul's conception of mission explaining his understanding of the church's mission in relation to his understanding of his own mission as an apostle, and (b) to show the influence of the Jesus-tradition on the apostle's conception. The thrust of the thesis is encapsulated in the title - Heralds and Community: An Enquiry into Paul's Conception of Mission and Its Indebtedness to the Jesus-Tradition. This reflects a conviction that constructing a plausible conceptuality of mission as understood by Paul and considering influential factors, particularly the Jesus-tradition, are essential for understanding Paul's ecclesial understanding and its relationship to his self-conception. The findings and positions taken in this study are as follows: I) Scholars have exaggerated the functional continuity between the apostle and the church in terms of evangelistic mission by using exegetically unsustainable arguments; in fact, Paul's letters are silent about proactive verbal evangelism by the church qua the church. 2) Paul's silence about congregational evangelism is due to his particular two-pronged (bifurcating) conception of mission, one prong being the event of eschatological heralds, the other prong being that of eschatological community. 3) In this conception of mission Paul maintains that God's inaugurated and ongoing salvation is to be implemented by proactive proclamation of the gospel by the heralds on the one hand, and by ontological/ethical actualization of the gospel by the community of the people of God on the other hand. 4) Jewish scriptures and traditions are formative for Paul's conception of mission, but Paul shows at various points his deep indebtedness to the Jesus-tradition, particularly to the context and contents of the synoptic mission discourse (for his concept of the heralds) and the sermon on the mount (for his concept of the community).

Full text
Abstract:
I have long felt that we, as educators, seem to be walking backwards into the future, facing where we have been. I was hopeful that the introduction of computers into Tasmanian schools in 1997 would signal a ‘cusp’, a point where teachers would, figuratively and willfully, turn 180 degrees, and move forwards, in an imaginative and exciting way, to help their students prepare well for an unpredictable future.Computers as Tools for Teaching and Learning was implemented by the Tasmanian Government and was accompanied by two documents: a ‘policy-cum-teachers’ guide’, A Planning Resource for Schools and Teachers; and a literature review of research that underpinned the government initiative, Does Information Technology Improve Student Learning Outcomes? I consider these two documents within this thesis embarking on a historical narrative journey. I demonstrate that these documents represented ‘thin’ conceptions for justifying and using computers in Information Age classrooms, particularly primary classrooms. On my journey I hope to develop a ‘thicker’ understanding of the potential unintended consequences of the Tasmanian Government’s initiative to give all students access to computers. Whilst exploring the only policy-related document released since 1997 and finding in this the same kind of thinness, I now seek a rich place from which I can maintain my moral agency as an educator - optimistically, lovingly and with hope for a good future for our children.To help understand my reaction to the documents, I turn to the words of philosopher writers, who provide some perspectives for inquiring into the socio-cultural layers of complexity with which I am concerned. I draw upon two particular conceptual frames. One is William Spady’s metaphor: winds of change blowing across the tip of an ‘educational iceberg’ that drifts in a sea of ingrained habits, past practices and institutional inertia, and accumulates cultural and historical paradigms successively through the ages - Feudal, Agrarian, Industrial and Bureaucratic. In this Information Age, winds of change blow across the tip of the ‘educational iceberg’, that is, across one-tenth of it. The nine-tenths of inherited characteristics, below the surface of the sea, impede our progress, and we remain sheltered from and largely uninfluenced by emerging conditions and realities. I ask why we continue to drag nine-tenths of the iceberg along with us, why computers restrict our focus on the past, and why computers in schools might not succeed in turning us, at the cusp of change, towards a humanly hospitable future.My second frame satisfies my resolve to understand my agency in the winds of change. I draw upon Neil Postman’s three cultures of technology: Theocracy, Technocracy, and Technopoly, the culture in which we live today. In Technopoly, all forms of cultural life are subjected to the sovereignty of technique and technology, which becomes a hegemonic state of mind and culture, and gains status as the chief source of authority, definer of life-goals and provider of satisfaction. At last, the resolution of my response to the growing phenomenon of computers in classrooms finds itself in Postman’s wisdom, as one of tolerance, optimism, revolution and love.

Abstract:
The Common Voice of the People is a study of the importance of heralds and their proclamations to the communal life of the ancient Athenian polis in the Archaic and Classical periods. This dissertation aims to contribute to the growing body of modern scholarship on issues of public communication, the tension between literacy and orality, the importance of ritual in the ancient polis, and the varied roles and identities of Greek heralds. While there has been a great focus in recent scholarship on literacy and the written record, the official place of orality within the Classical polis has been neglected, and until now there has never been a full scale study of heralds and their place within the community. Building upon the recent scholarship on news dispersal within the polis I have explored the positions and roles of the ancient Athenian heralds within their community, and the historical progression of the herald’s position from Geometric Greece to the end of the Classical world. I have sought to determine what their importance and the importance of their proclamations was to the proper functioning of the Athenian community. Marshalling evidence from both literary and epigraphic evidence I employed these deductions about heralds to further explore the importance of both official state and unofficial citizen proclamations in the spread of news and within established ritual. This work explores a range of topics concerning polis life such as religion, civil communication, public notice, private citizen disinheritances and manumissions, international communication, Imperial Athenian attitudes towards subject allies, and the necessity of proclamation to the conferral of honor. The Common Voice of the People demonstrates the depth of integration of heralds and oral communication within a variety of aspects of polis life, the surprising absence of heralds from certain central aspects of internal Athenian communication, and the continued importance of orality as both a practical and ceremonial aspect of official forms of communication and ritual in an increasingly literate classical Athens.

Full text
Abstract:
This study examines the ideological inflection of the ‘farm killings’ discourse in the Eastern Province Herald articles published in August 1998. ‘Farm killings’ is a media frame which was applied to a spate of killings of people on the country’s farms since 1994. Heightened and sustained media attention on the ‘farm killings’ has lifted the phenomenon from the other ‘run-of-the-mill’ murder crimes, and located it firmly as a matter of public concern and a subject of a broad political and economic debate. In this study I investigate the media coverage of the ‘farm killings’ within the context of these debates. The cultural studies approach to the study of the media provides a fruitful theoretical framework within which this study is located. The ideological examination of the articles is done using the critical linguistics method - a brand of reflexive, interpretative style of analysis which enables a sustained examination of media texts within their social, cultural and historical context. This study’s conclusions pose a challenge to the ‘Fourth Estate’ role often claimed for the media. In particular, it denies that the Herald objectively, fairly and truthfully reflected the experience on the farms during the period of this study. Its main finding is that the newspaper instead, constructed a particular understanding of the killings characterised by subtle racism, bias and partiality.

Apesar do crescente número de grupos religiosos tidos como tradicionalistas, ainda são poucos os estudos que abordam a vertente do tradicionalismo católico. Diante disso, entende-se que a abordagem, acerca dos Arautos do Evangelho, pode acrescentar informações, auxiliando na compreensão da lógica e da dinâmica desses grupos. Na presente dissertação procurou-se investigar as formas e meios utilizados pelos Arautos do Evangelho como movimento tradicionalista no campo religioso. Utilizou-se de recurso referencial para obtenção das informações nativas, a Revista Arautos do Evangelho, bem como sítios eletrônicos, blogs, redes sociais e, sobretudo, a página oficial dos religiosos em questão. Na análise foi utilizada literatura diversa, com ênfase em estudos sobre novos movimentos católicos de vertente tradicionalista. Por fim, inferiu-se que os Arautos do Evangelho oferecem, sobretudo aos jovens, uma sistema de sentido, plausível e bem estruturado, suficiente para apresentarem-se como mais uma opção de modelo de vida na modernidade.
Despite the growing number of religious groups seen as traditionalists, there are few studies on the part of the catholic traditionalism. Therefore, it is understood that the approach , about the Heralds of the Gospel, can add information, helping to understand the logic and dynamics of these groups. In this dissertation attempts to investigate the ways and means used by the Heralds of the Gospel as traditionalist movement in the religious field. It was used as a reference resource for obtaining the native information, the Journal Heralds of the Gospel, and electronic sites, blogs, social networks and, above all, the official site of the religious concerned. In other literature analysis was used, with emphasis on studies of new traditionalist Catholic movements of the present. Finally, it was inferred that the Heralds of the Gospel offer, especially to young people, a sense system, plausible and well structured, enough to present themselves as more a life model option in modernity.

Abstract:
The original idea behind Herald was to create a South African Downton Abbey (ITV and PBS, 2010 -2015). Historical television is currently popular and Downton is appealing because it communicates interesting history, finds comedy in the manners and behaviours of the day and indulges in the visual pleasures of opulent aristocratic society. A historical setting is as foreign and exciting as a fantasy realm but it can still provide a platform to explore themes that are relevant and familiar to a contemporary viewer. Members of local government, military officers and other nobles and wealthy Britons at the Cape lived aristocratic lives not unlike the fictional inhabitants of Downton and yet a wholesale pastiche of the structure of Downton or the conventions of the period drama genre is inappropriate. The racial tensions that have defined the colonial and postcolonial periods of South African history and the Eurocentric, androcentric approach to that history necessitate a new approach. It is with this in mind that I have attempted to create a television miniseries inspired by the traditional period drama and by Downton Abbey specifically, but remoulded by the contexts of past and present day South Africa. I had several main goals in mind for this miniseries: to provide South Africans with entertaining television that tells local stories and, in so doing, encourage South Africans to engage with their own history; to grapple with contentious issues of the present such as race, gender and land, by exploring the past; to place strong black, Malay and female characters at the center of history and give them the agency to effect history; to provide a critique of the British and their actions at the Cape.

Resumo: A partir da transcrição e análise das composições e improvisos musicais de Heraldo do Monte, embasando-se nos conceitos até hoje estabelecidos para composição e improvisação, investiga-se como o músico articula elementos musicais da música popular brasileira urbana (choro, samba e frevo), das manifestações musicais regionais e do jazz, criando um estilo peculiar e inovador de compor e improvisar na guitarra. Através de leituras sobre o Imaginário Nacional Popular, e de que forma este se manifestou na música popular dos anos 60, busca-se verificar, junto a artigos e entrevistas com Heraldo do Monte, até que ponto essas idéias podem ter influenciado o músico em certas escolhas estéticas que nortearam a fusão das influências musicais citadas para a construção, sob seu ponto de vista, de uma guitarra brasileira

Aspden, Reuben S. "Heralded quantum imaging." Thesis, University of Glasgow, 2015. http://theses.gla.ac.uk/6472/.

Full text
Abstract:
Imaging systems play a crucial role in shaping understanding of our surroundings. Modern imaging systems enable the acquisition of images of objects at length-scales and resolutions previously deemed impossible. However, as the drive for better images and novel applications increases, several questions fundamental to our understanding of imaging are being raised. We are familiar with images containing many millions of photons, but how many photons does it take to form an image? In scenarios requiring covert imaging, or where high-light levels damage the sample being imaged, is it possible to image a sample with a very small number of very low-energy photons? This thesis will focus on answering these two questions. In order to answer these questions I developed a heralded quantum imaging system. The strong spatial correlations inherent between down-converted twin photons have been utilised in many quantum imaging techniques for the past 25 years. Thus far, standard quantum imaging techniques have relied on scanning a fibre detector across the field of view in order to measure the spatial information in the image. However, the scanning mechanism fundamentally limits the detection efficiency of the imaging system. Recent years have seen an increased interest in using the latest camera technology within quantum imaging systems. The advent of single-photon-sensitive cameras has opened up new possibilities within the quantum imaging field. It is now possible to obtain images of objects by detecting very low-light illumination across the full scene simultaneously. In the heralded quantum imaging system presented in this thesis, a combination of quantum mechanics and a high-sensitivity camera was employed to obtain high contrast images containing very few photons. This was the first such system built. Using the correlations between the twin photons generated by our down-conversion source, and our development of compressive sampling techniques to post-process the acquired data enabled the acquisition of an image containing an average of only 0.5 photons per pixel. This represents a significant reduction when compared with a conventional image that contains of order 105 photons per pixel. I also developed this imaging system to use twin photons at vastly different wave- lengths. The object was probed with low-energy infrared photons whilst the image was developed on a camera using the correlated visible photon. This disparity in energy between the two photons enabled the acquisition of images using only several thousand photons, corresponding to an energy deposition on the sample of only a few pJ.

Abstract:
The purpose of this dissertation is to examine the occurrence of Scandinavia in the then daily English newspaper Yorkshire Herald during the First World War. The dissertation looks into what the Yorkshire Herald wrote about Scandinavia in the parts of the newspaper where the newspaper´s own opinion was given. This approach is connected to the theoretical idea that the British local and regional press was politically free during the war period. The dissertation also looks into the number of news telegrams etcetera that concerned Scandinavia during the period. The result shows that Scandinavia, both as a whole as well as the three individual countries, was mentioned about 700 times, split over about 600 telegrams and articles, during the examined period stretching from the first of August 1914 to the eleventh of November 1918. Material that gives the newspaper´s opinion regarding issues concerning Scandinavia can be found six times during the period. Of these articles two have a slight aggressive tone, while the character of the remaining four is more neutral, even friendly and sympathetic.

This dissertation has as its object the study of the life and work of César Vallejo and objective tries to understand the transitional moments in the history and culture of Latin America, from the look on the Peruvian reality granted in lyric discourse of César Vallejo. It discusses the shock/coexistence: pre-columbian past in the face of settler phenomenon and the contemporary questions. Seeks to understand the permanence of these historicidades in the construction of a post-colonial discourse, released from memory restore nostalgic, utopian Eden Tauantinsuyo, and the assenhoramento of the Western Christians and the trajectory of the existential poet Cesar Vallejo to unveil his speech to border beckons to different worlds, different banks and open horizons, where the power of his innovative literary diction contemplates the emerging identities on the Mainland, the hybridism of their ethno-cultural convergences. His life and the strength of his work through the Latin American soul, estuam in Peru, costa, chainsaw will resonate in generous corner in the old world, in fighting against oppression, taking the message of a happy future humanity, by the advent of the socialist utopia.
Esta dissertação tem como objeto o estudo da vida e obra de César Vallejo e como objetivo busca compreender os momentos transicionais da historia e da cultura da América Latina, a partir do olhar sobre a realidade peruana presentificada no discurso lírico de César Vallejo. Discute-se o choque/convivência: passado pré-colombiano em face do fenômeno colonizador e as indagações contemporâneas. Procura-se compreender as permanências dessas historicidades na construção de um discurso pós-colonial, liberado da utópica restauração da memória nostálgica, o éden do Tauantinsuyo, do assenhoramento dos marcos cristãos ocidentais e a trajetória existencial do poeta Cesar Vallejo. Desvelar seu discurso fronteiriço que acena pra diferentes mundos, diversas margens e abre horizontes, onde o poder de sua dicção literária inovadora contempla as identidades emergentes no continente, o hibridismo das suas convergências etno-culturais. Sua vida e a pujança de sua obra atravessam a alma latino-americana, estuam no Peru, de serra a costa, vão repercutir em canto generoso no velho mundo, em combate contra a opressão, levando a mensagem de uma feliz humanidade futura, pelo advento da utopia socialista.

Abstract:
Ce que nous appelons la Chronique (1408-1436) de Jean Lefèvre de Saint-Rémy (v.1396-1468) est une des sources les plus utilisées pour cerner l'histoire des Ducs de Bourgogne de la dynastie Valois, particulièrement les principats de Jean sans Peur et de Philippe le Bon. L'oeuvre historiographique décrit la guerre civile entre Armagnacs et Bourguignons de 1408 à 1435, en plus de quelques relations originales concernant la campagne d'Azincourt de 1415 vue du côté des Anglais ou encore les fêtes relatives aux noces de Philippe de Bourgogne et d'Isabelle de Portugal à Bruges, en janvier 1430. C'est en tant que roi d'armes de la Toison d'or que Jean Lefèvre a élaboré son oeuvre, prenant sa documentation depuis la copie de plusieurs sources narratives dont la plus importante est celle d'Enguerrant de Monstrelet mais également à partir de son témoignage oculaire, de ses enquêtes auprès de l'aristocratie bourguignonne ou encore des échanges avec les différents historiens contemporains évoluant au sein de la cour ducale. Le milieu bourguignon a influencé très largement cet auteur, celui-ci prenant comme type d'écriture celui des "Mémoires" composés par différents laïcs de son entourage. L'objectif de ses écrits historiques, traitant de manière clairement partiale les événements guerriers ou mondains, se situe dans la tradition encomiastique vis-à-vis du pouvoir à qui il doit ses missions, ses revenus et sa situation.

The historiographical work describes the civil war between Armagnac and Burgundians from 1408 until 1435, besides some original relations concerning the campaign of Azincourt of 1415 or the wedding of Philippe de Bourgogne and Isabelle of Portugal in Bruges, in January 1430. Jean Lefèvre developed his work as "Toison d'or" King of Arms (Golden Fleece chilvaric order's herald), taking his documentation from the copy of several narrative books, the most important of which are the one of Enguerrand of Monstrelet, but also from its eye testimony, from its inquiries with the Burgundians aristocracy or exchanges with the various contemporary historians evolving within the ducal courtyard. The Burgundian court influenced very widely this author, this one fascinating as type of writing that of the Reports consisted by various laymen of its circle of acquaintances. The objective of its historic papers, handling in a clearly partial way the warlike or worldly events, it situated in the encomiastic tradition towards the power to whom he owes his missions. We find a similarity with the other heralds authors of historic works of the end of the Middle Ages there, among which the protection of the fama of the Prince, which stays the main cause of writing

Abstract:
This research paper investigates the functions of community newspapers in the battle against HIV/Aids. The research is conducted through studying literature, analysing four selected community newspapers and interviewing the editors of the newspapers. According to the literature, a community newspaper stands closer to the reader than any other newspaper, which means it could have a larger impact than for example a national paper. A community paper can provide information or start a debate in the community. The media can focus the attention of the reader on HIV/Aids through agenda setting. By giving the subject prominence in a publication, for instance, the media show how important they consider the subject. The functions of the press can be divided in different categories: the informative function, the press as a booster of the public debate, the service function, the educative function and the entertainment function. This study finds that not all the researched newspapers consider it their responsibility to cover HIV/Aids. The importance that the editors give to the subject and the number of articles that reaches the publication also does not match. The functions the newspapers mainly fulfil, are the information and education function. The reasons for a moderate coverage of HIV/Aids include a lack of statistics, a lack of information from organisations, staff shortages and fear that the reader will receive the opinion that the newspaper writes about the same things over and over again.

Abstract:
The significance of heraldic references in literature has been the subject of both antiquarian interest and recent scholarship. In the field of seventeenth-century poetry, there exists a small body of published work concerned with the use of heraldry by William Shakespeare, Ben Jonson and Jolin Cleveland. The aim of this thesis is to demonstrate the existence and significance of heraldic references in a wider range of seventeenth-century verse and poetry. It eschews assumptions regarding the use of heraldry by, or with reference to, a narrow social elite, and examines heraldic references published in broadsheets and used in songs, as well as in the privately- circulated manuscripts of the nobility. Chapter One offers a critical examination of a range of current scholarship concerned with heraldic readings of literature. Chapter Two demonstrates that formal heraldic references, affirming or celebrating their subject’s identity, were used in diverse genres, including dedicatory verses, encomia, epitaphs, elegies, epithalamia and anagrams. Chapter Three determines the social implications of the use of heraldry, with particular reference to epic and satirical verse, arguing that heraldic references in this period develop beyond their traditional, chivalric associations. Chapter Four discusses those works that include heraldic references as expressions of authority or political power, and considers their use in different contexts to affirm or undermine the position of individuals and groups within society. Chapter Five establishes the use of heraldry within religious or spiritual poetry and addresses whether its vocabulary was regarded as an expression of particular Christian values. Chapter Six explores the engagement of women writers with heraldry and considers how far their use of the language offered a challenge to the prevailing patriarchal culture. The Conclusion draws attention to the significance of the evolution of heraldry from the seventeenth century to the present day.

Abstract:
Disney's Hercules is an apt modern reception of the ancient mythology of Herakles, acknowledging ancient and modern sources surrounding three types of classical hero: the archetypal hero, influenced by the ideas of Joseph Campbell; the Pan-Hellenic hero, distilled from ancient Greek exempla of heroism from epic and other genres of ancient literature; and the tragic hero, inspired by the heroic criteria presented in Aristotle's Poetics. By adapting these heroic types from their traditional ancient source myths, Disney's Hercules produces a new, contemporary definition of heroism—one informed by modern, Western family values. This adaptation renews the power of the myth of Herakles for a modern era, whose image and characteristics have been changed and adapted since ancient times to suit each receiving culture's conception of true heroism.

Abstract:
The period from 1921 to 1930 saw the Daily Herald come under the direct control of the organised Labour movement - jointly owned by the Labour Party and the Trades Union Congress. It seperates an earlier incarnation of independent left radicalism from a subsequent identity as a commercial daily tied to an official political line. It is a period of commercial and competitive failure - the 500,000 circulation constantly evoked as a target was only attained in times of exceptional political or industrial excitement. Reliant on movement subsidies for capital finance it was unable to match the new features and inducements - notably insurance schemes - that competitors provided in a period of rapid expansion and intense circulation battles. Editorially it was torn between the radicalism of its staff, the journalistic instinct to avoid predictability and the desire of Labour's moderate leaders for an automatically reliable supporter in the national press. As leadership pressures mounted it increasingly became the voice of the centre lecturing followers, with debate restricted - but independent instincts were never totally curbed. Failure to attract the desired mass readership cannot be wholly attributed to poverty. Initially developed as the voice of a committed, informed radical political elite it continued to reflect their interests - and would always choose to educate rather than entertain. In the absence of a mass counterculture this left it seeking a popular readership with a serious approach. Realisation that a different approach was needed to win such a readership combined with recognition that this would need capital investment beyond the means of the movement to force the partnership formed with Odhams Press in 1929, ending exclusive movement control.

Abstract:
Single photons - discrete wavepackets of light - are one of the most fundamental entities in physics. In recent years, the ability to consistently create and manipulate both single photons and pairs of photons has facilitated everything from tests of quantum theory to the implementation of quantum-enhanced precision measurements. These activities all fall within the scope of the rapidly-growing field of quantum information - the exploitation of the properties of quantum states (and specifically their capability to exist in superpositions) to accomplish tasks that would not be possible with classical objects. One stated goal of research in quantum information is to build a device consisting of a network of quantum logic gates that can evaluate quantum algorithms. The photonic implementation of individual logic gates has already been demonstrated. However, partly due to standard methods of preparing single photons, current schemes have severe limitations in terms of scaling up from a single logic gate to multiple concatenated operations. Until now it has not been proven that single photons can be generated in pure and indistinguishable quantum states, something upon which the successful operation of optical quantum logic gates relies. This thesis presents an experimental demonstration of simultaneous generation of almost identical single photons in highly pure states from two independent sources based on parametric downconversion. This is a process of photon pair generation during the passage of a light beam through a nonlinear crystal; one photon from the resulting pair is detected to herald the other. The work herein describes, refines, and implements a technique that minimises the strong quantum correlations usually present within each pair by spectral engineering of the source. This allows the heralded single photons to be in pure states, a property that is confirmed by observing a high-visibility two-photon interference effect without spectral filtering.

Abstract:
Quantum photonics is one of the newest strands of research that shares the border between fundamental science and state of the art technology. Many of the visions of quantum photonics, for example, linear optical quantum computing, require ideal single-photon sources (SPSs). A key pre-requisite of an ideal SPS is the near unity (>99%) indistinguishability among single-photons from multiple SPSs. This is a true measure of scalability, as multiple indistinguishable SPSs can be integrated on a single chip for performing complex quantum information algorithms. To date, higher than 95% indistinguishability has not been shown in any photonic platform. Silicon on insulator (SOI) photonics is one of the platforms that promises a near ideal heralded SPS. It also offers mature fabrication technology, truly scalable architecture and a roadmap to electronic integration. If higher than 99% indistinguishable SPSs are achieved, it will pave the way to implement adequately complex algorithms that cannot be reproduced using classical computers. The primary focus of this thesis is to investigate ways to achieve and compare indistinguishable heralded SPSs in the SOI photonic platform. Specifically, we have chosen two well-known structures as heralded SPSs: nanowire waveguides and micro-ring resonators. Although the brightness and purity of the single-photons generated in those two structures are investigated both theoretically and experimentally, the indistinguishability data is scarce in the literature. In fact, the indistinguishability of the micro-ring resonator heralded SPSs has not been experimentally demonstrated in SOI or any other photonic platform. The intrinsic resonance enhancement in the resonator predicts high brightness and purity simultaneously with high indistinguishability. Thus, designing and implementing on-chip photon indistinguishability measurement (PIM) circuits for micro-ring resonator SPSs cover a significant portion of this thesis. Also, the purity of the designed heralded SPSs has been simulated, and the effects of the possible imperfections of the PIM circuits along with practical SPSs have been investigated with numerical models. As such, the study presented here provides insights into the indistinguishability of the heralded SPSs to build scalable quantum technologies in SOI photonic platform.

Full text
Abstract:
The goal of this thesis is to examine the editorial position of the Sydney Morning Herald, Australia's oldest continually produced newspaper, as a way of examining the character of colonial liberalism. Analysis will proceed by way of close scrutiny of key issues dealt with by the Sydney Morning Herald, including: state-aid to churches; education policy; free trade; land reform; the antitransportation movement; issues surrounding political representation; and the treatment of Chinese workers. Such analysis includes an appraisal of the views of John Fairfax, proprietor from 1841 to his death in 1877, and the influences, particularly religious nonconformity, which shaped his early journalism in Britain. Another key figure in the thesis is John West, editor 1854-1873, and again his editorial stance will be related to the major political and religious movements in Britain and Australia. Part of this re-evaluation of the character of colonial liberalism in the thesis provides a critical study of the existing historiography and calls into question the widely held view that the Sydney Morning Herald was a force for conservatism. In doing so, the thesis questions some of the major assumptions of the existing historiography and, while doing justice to colonial context, attempts to contextualise colonial politics with the broader framework of mid nineteenth-century Western political thought.
