Full textAbstract:
This thesis examines the Australia Army???s campaign on Papua from July 1942 to January 1943 with the focus on logistic support of the fighting arms and the relation of logistics to the tactics of tropical jungle warfare. It begins by examining the traditional approach to logistics in the military profession - the experience of Australian officers and forces in particular - from the First World War until May 1942, when the Australian territory of Papua was invaded. It establishes that the Army was poorly prepared because, as well as having never anticipated a prolonged land campaign in Papua-New Guinea, it lacked the logistic resources and knowledge of logistics as applicable to tropical jungle warfare. It then proceeds to examine the retreat over the Kokoda Track and the turning-point battles for Milne Bay and Imita Ridge. It demonstrates that the principal factor in the Australian retreat was logistic failure, as geography and lack of logistic resources prevented adequate supply of the fighting arms at least until lines of communication had been shortened; even then, difficulties remained. The thesis is rounded off by assessing the counter-attack across the territory of Papua for the capture of the enemy???s beachheads at Buna, Gona and Sanananda. It concludes that, as the island???s geography and tropical environment so dominated operations and since shortages of logistic equipment and units persisted, the Army could not perfect its logistic organisation by the end of this first phase of the New Guinea campaign. It fell back on improvisation and the fortitude of troops to triumph over the Japanese.

Full textAbstract:
The twentieth century has aptly been referred to the century of the refugee.1 In the twentieth century, refugees became an important international problem which seriously affected relations between states and refugee issues continue to play an important part in international relations in the twenty-first century. The refugee crisis created by the Nazis in the 1930s was without precedent and the British government was unsure how to respond. British refugee policy was still in a formative stage and was therefore susceptible to outside influences. This dissertation aims to explain the key factors that drove British refugee policy in the period March 1938 to July 1940, and to evaluate their relative significance over time. I divided the period of study into three phases (March-September 1938, October 1938 to August 1939, September 1939 to July 1940), in order to explore how a range of factors varied in importance in a political and international environment that was rapidly changing. In considering how to respond to the refugee crisis, the British government was hugely influenced by concerns over its relations with other countries, especially Germany. There is little doubt that, during the entire period of this study, the primary influence on the formation and implementation of British refugee policy was the international situation. However, foreign policy did not by itself dictate the precise form taken by British refugee policy. The response of the British government was modulated by economic concerns, domestic political factors, humanitarianism, and by the habits, traditions and assumptions of British political culture. Some factors, like anti-Semitism became less important during the period of this study, while others like humanitarianism increased in importance.

Full textAbstract:
L'étude se centre sur les phénomènes de pénétration et d'enracinement de l'art japonais en France selon les perspectives de l'histoire culturelle, i. E, en privilégiant l'analyse de la constitution de l'héritage des signes et des symboles, des figures héroiques et des valeurs qui constituent la culture et l"esprit" du judo français. La problématique se fonde sur trois notions : l'altérité, l'appropriation et l'autonomie. D'une part, le judo comme pratique physique occupe une place particulière dans les conceptions éducatives de l'esprit et du corps. D'autre part, l'adaptation de la méthode japonaise aux représentations inscrites dès le début du siècle en France révèle le degré d'appropriation de la discipline par sa société d'accueil. Enfin, cette démarche singulière est amplifiée par la politique étatique de gestion des pratiques sportives. L'autonomie conférée renforce la volonté d'indépendance au regard du modèle japonais. L'étude est tout d'abord consacrée aux aspects méthodologiques, à la définition du judo en tant qu'objet d'histoire, à la délimitation des bornes chronologiques. La nature et la spécificité des sources (imprimées, orales) est détaillée ; les limites sont exposées. La première période, jusqu'au début des années 1930, correspond à la phase de découverte et de premier contact durant laquelle, dans sa forme de jujutsu, l'art nippon est introduit en France et construit son image de méthode quasi invincible. La méthode japonaise est alors synonyme de maîtrise du combat. La seconde oériode voit la transformation progressive du jujutsu en judo et la bascule vers des finalités éducatives et spirituelles. C'est aussi à cette époque que se créent des traditions, de nouveaux modes de sociabilité et que se constituent les institutions et les structures qui vont les pérenniser. Le judo est alors synonyme de maîtrise de soi. La phase d'enracinement se termine. Des signes de rupture apparaissent : l'art martial se transforme en sport moderneThis study focuses on the rooting process of judo in French society from the perspective of cultural history, i. E. , the stress is laid on the making of the heritage of signs and symbols, heroic figures and values that shape the culture and spirit of french judo. This thesis posits that the success of judo in France is the result of the interaction of three forces : alterity, acculturation and autonomy. Judo practice stands apart as far as theories of education of the spirit and the body are concerned. The way the japanese method was adapted to french mental representations reveals the importance of the appropriation level of judo as a cultural import. This specificity was enhanced by government policies towards physical activities. The autonomy thus acquired strengthened french judo leaders'desire of independence towards the original japanese model. A first part is dedicated to methodology. Judo is defined as historical subject, epochs are differenciated, archives and sources (both printed and oral) presented, their limits exposed. The first era, which runs from the late XIXth century to the 1930's, sees the discovery and first contacts of the french exponents with the art of Japan in its jujutsu form. The image of an almost invincible method of self-defence is sharpened and the japanese method is then equated with combat mastery. The shift from jujutsu to judo and the revelation of educative and spiritual finalities correspond to the second epoch. As new sociability patterns are adopted, a french national judo board is founded. It is meant to deal with the core of administration matters and to protect traditions. Judo is synonymous with school of self-control and confidence. The rooting period is over, signs of rupture appear. The martial art turns into a modern sport

Full textAbstract:
This thesis evaluates the "human dimension" of military history and focuses primarily on soldiers from the 3rd Canadian Infantry Division during the first half of the Normandy campaign, 6 June to early July 1944. This study concerns itself with the subject of morale and the individual's experience in war. Therefore, it couples an exploration of the challenging physical and psychological conditions that the infantry confronted in battle, with a discussion of how they coped with, and persevered through, the awful bloodbath beyond D-Day. Five critical and related themes are addressed 1) anticipation versus reality; 2) privation and hardship; 3) improvisation and adaption; 4) coping, culture, and comradeship; and 5) administration and morale. By placing the common soldier at the centre of attention, this thesis reveals an interesting and innovative perspective into a variety of important subjects that are virtually unknown in the relevant historiography.

Full textAbstract:
The main objective of this thesis is to describe the problems and difficulties of an island population, which had suffered from extreme shortages of food and other basic necessities for a number of years and also endured months of intense aerial bombardment before being invaded by an Allied army which became engaged in fierce combat with the defending forces. The conquest of the island was followed by the establishment of the first Allied Military Government of an enemy territory in Europe in World War II. This government, a joint UK/US enterprise, also had its problems, caused not only by the war-torn conditions in Catania but by its inefficient and inept military headquarters in Algiers. The Civil Affairs Officers (CAOs) responsible for the administration had a duel task: to support the combat forces by ensuring roads were cleared for the passage of troops and to obtain supplies for them, and to keep law and order and relieve distress among the civilian population, the needs of the military always taking priority. The thesis aims to show the tenacious way in which the CAOs, in very restricted numbers, coped with acute shortages of food and other necessities, which Allied propaganda had promised the islanders, while the military forces, with only a few exceptions, were most unhelpful.

Full textAbstract:
Over the years, Christian historiography has overlooked Carrie Judd Montgomery’s (1858-1946) significant contribution to both the Divine Healing movement and Pentecostalism. Her 1879 healing account, early healing homes, and contribution to the formation of the doctrine of healing in the atonement make her one of the most influential people in the American Divine Healing movement. Following her 1908 tongues experience, Montgomery additionally impacted early Pentecostalism by spreading its themes throughout her networks and introducing many significant leaders to the Pentecostal Spirit baptism. An analysis of Montgomery’s writings from 1880-1920 reveal that the prayer of faith in James 5 and healing in the atonement were two of the major foundations in her theology of healing. Further, her pneumatology reveals that she actively pursued the fullness of the Spirit, also at times referred to as “Spirit baptism,” both before and after her own 1908 tongues experience. While speaking in tongues enhanced her spirituality and added a new flavor to her ministry, it did not produce any major shifts within her theology of healing. In light of her experiences with the Spirit throughout the years, a present day approach for revivals and a proposed redefinition of the Pentecostal Spirit baptism are presented.

Full textAbstract:
Despite renewed scholarly interest in war aims during the First World War, those of Austria-Hungary have so far been neglected. This thesis examines the efforts of the Monarchy's elite decision-makers to establish and achieve their war aims in the Balkans. It covers the decisive period of war aims formation (1914-1917) and focuses particularly on the leadership of Foreign Minister Istvan Burian (1915-1916) and the forces which affected his decision-making. The thesis demonstrates that Austria-Hungary's most vital political, economic, and military interests principally lay in the Balkans, where the Monarchy's war aims were most aggressive and expansionist. Despite facing enormous pressure for radicalization from the annexationist General Franz Conrad von Hotzendorf and the mostly non-annexationist Hungarian Prime Minister Istvan Tisza, the Foreign Ministry retained overarching decision-making authority in the war aims question. This stands in stark contrast to Germany, where military influence became predominant. Burian pursued coherent and consistent war aims aimed at expanding Austro-Hungarian power, prestige, influence, and territory in the Balkans. By emphasizing Austria-Hungary's pre-eminence there, its leaders incurred serious German and Bulgarian opposition. Despite facing grave military setbacks and the risk of slipping into vassalage to Germany, until May 1917 the Monarchy's highest echelons refused to seriously entertain peace options until its Balkan war aims were met. Continued involvement in the First World War thus served a political purpose, and this thesis demonstrates that Austro-Hungarian war aims in the Balkans were among the underlying factors prolonging the world conflagration. The work concludes by demonstrating a continuing Austro-Hungarian interest in Balkan expansion right up to the closing stages of the war. The thesis addresses one of the most significant gaps in the literature on Austria-Hungary. It does so by using formerly secret Austrian and Hungarian materials in Budapest, in addition to employing national and military archives in Austria, Hungary, Germany, the UK, and the United States.

Full textAbstract:
The dissertation is divided into four sections. The
first deals with the work experience gained at the Australian War Memorial, followed by that gained at the Abegg Stiftung.
Observations on visits to other conservation laboratories and
a report on the two international conferences attended, complete
sections three and four.
Work experience at the Australian War Memorial Textile
conservation laboratory involved spending time in assisting
with ongoing programs, conservation treatments carried out
with supervision, as well as research. The time was divided
so that all areas received equal emphasis. Ongoing programs
involved the uniform inspections program and the display
maintenance program. The involvement with routine tasks
of surface cleaning, and with preparation for storage or
display, with both programs, is not detailed in the dissertation.
Nor can the dissertation include all the treatments of objects.
Reference may be made for details on these treatments, to
Australian War Memorial Conservation records for objects with
the following accession numbers: AWM 1102,/5947,/10487,
AWM 7919. However, two treatment reports are included. These
are for a pair of flying boots worn by the Baron von Richthofen,
and for an embroidered silk souvenir. The boots, now on
permanent display were conserved with attention given to the need
to preserve historical evidence, the choice of materials used for
repair and requirements of display. The silk textile treatment
took into consideration the benefits and risks involved in removing
a deteriorated backing and relining a silk which was extremely
embrittled. In the process it was realised that a facing might
give stability to such a deteriorated silk; however, an
initial study of facing materials and methods was required and
was therefore undertaken and reported on in the dissertation.
Whilst inspecting items in the relics collection of the Australian
War Memorial a number of rubberised fabrics and other rubber materials
were observed to show problems such as hardening, embrittlement,
deformation, tackiness or discolouration. It was found that no
information had been published on the treatment and
preservation of such materials in the conservation
literature. A survey on rubber deterioration and
preservation literature since 1900 is included in the
dissertation.
The function, facilities and equipment of the
textile conservation department of the Australian War
Memorial are described as well as the storage of relics
and uniforms.
Work experience at the Abegg Stiftung involved
assisting with group projects in most instances as well as
working independently with supervision. It was therefore
decided to report in general on the types of treatment given
and give a brief account of the experience and skills gained.
An example of a treatment report as was required for the Abegg
Stiftung records is included as well as an example of detailed
personal notes on the progress and treatment of a 15th century
silk chasuble.
The Abegg Stiftung is recognised as one of the foremost
training centres in textile conservation in Europe. This led
me to consider here the benefits and possible limitations of the
program from the impressions gained during the three months
work experience at the Institute.
Round table discussions were held by Mechthilde Flury-
Lehmburg which served to raise questions for discussion by
textile conservation students and staff. This also permitted
a concensus to be reached when items of a complex nature were
to be conserved. A record of such a discussion is annexed.
The Library of the Institute was frequently consulted by
historians, as it specialises in textile conservation literature
and many languages are represented, German being predominant.
This library was consulted on German literature on textile
conservation, and a brief guide to sources is included.
Visits were made to a number of textile conservation
laboratories in Europe. It was possible as a result of these
visits to evaluate various types of equipment which are used
for textile conservation. It was seen that although much
skilful work was being done, especially in laboratories where
more conservative treatments were preferred, there were a
number of questions which were raised and remained unanswered.
Subjects discussed and research undertaken are reported.
The 1IC and ICOM conferences attended, introduced me to
international cooperation and activity in conservation research
and setting of standards. Information found to be relevant to
progress in textile conservation research and related materials
is summarised here.

Adams, Daniel Clayton. "The formation of the prisoner-theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer: a close reading of Letters and papers from prison, from April 5,1943 to July 20, 1944." Master's thesis, University of Cape Town, 2015. http://hdl.handle.net/11427/13649.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis seeks to take Dietrich Bonhoeffer’s prison experience seriously as a spiritually and theologically formative journey through liminal displacement. Using the anthropological theory of liminality as a lens for analysis, it offers a close reading of Bonhoeffer’s prison writings, examining the porous nature of the sociocultural and metaphorical boundaries of the prison space as expressed in notes, letters, essays, prayers, poetry, and theological letters. In doing so, the thesis suggests that Bonhoeffer’s dramatic transition into the prison space results in an “inbetween- ness” (Palmer et al. 2009) that suspends the prisoner “betwixt and between” (Turner 1967) light and dark, inside and outside, above and below, sacred and profane space, dislocation and located-ness, suffering and hope, life and death. Chronologically examining distinct phases of liminality – separation, transition, anticipation – the study shows a cumulatively transformative movement in which the prisoner is drawn ever more deeply into the reality of his own life, and an ever increasing relationality with others, with God, and with the suffering of those who inhabit the view from below. It is observed that by taking an active role in navigating liminality, Bonhoeffer encounters multiple turning points at the heart of betwixt space, which break up “default modes of perception,” (Wannenwetsch 2012) transforming the prison cell into a privileged place of insight that ultimately catalyses a transformative new vision of reality and the Christian life. Within liminality the borderlines and boundaries of the prison space remain just porous enough to create the possibility for alternative ways of viewing reality. Through theological, poetic, and polyphonic anticipation, Bonhoeffer risks imaginative resolve by reframing liminality as a Gethsemane-like displacement, stations on the way to freedom, and participation in the polyphonic nature of life. In it is concluded that Bonhoeffer’s prison experience represents a uniquely formative space in which he was drawn into participation in the life, sufferings, and death of Jesus Christ.

It questions how a newspaper's particular bias affects the way it discusses a topic, disseminates news, and relates with its audience. It examines the influence a newspaper has on shaping public opinion concerning friendly and enemy nations in the lead up to a war. At the same time this paper also examines how a newspaper's class and political background determines the level of support the paper demonstrates for war or for pacifism.

Full textAbstract:
De 1814 à 1914, un lent mouvement de dépénalisation s'amorce conformément aux progrès de la civilisation. Le code pénal de 1810 comportant des peines planchers, n'est plus au fil du temps et des régimes politiques, adapté à la répression. Va se glisser, par l'intermédiaire du législateur, des peines intermédiaires applicables en cas de circonstances atténuantes. La loi du 25 juin 1824, votée sous la Restauration, est la première à correctionnaliser certains crimes. Or elle est limitée à quelques crimes et le vote en est réservé aux magistrats. La loi du 28 avril 1832 est d'une ampleur plus considérable. Outre qu'elle modifie plusieurs articles des codes pénal et d'instruction criminelle, elle attribue au jury le droit d'accorder des circonstances atténuantes. En généralisant leur application, elle modifie l'article 463 du code pénal. Elle supprime aussi la peine de la marque et la peine de mort dans neuf cas. La loi du 18 avril 1863 réalise un nouvel adoucissement du droit pénal. Sous la IIIe République, le décret du 27 novembre 1870, rétablit les circonstances atténuantes pour les peines de simple police que la loi précédente avait supprimées. Enfin la loi du 26 octobre 1888, contraventionnalise. L'application des circonstances atténuantes peut aussi être influencée par d'autres facteurs. Les lois successives modifiant le quantum du vote du jury ainsi que les différentes modifications relatives au recrutement des jurés, ont des conséquences sur l'appréciation de la culpabilité et permettent de pallier l'excessive indulgence du jury, en rendant la répression plus certaine. Autre facteur : la correctionnalisation avant jugement. L'individualisation de la répression est notable partout en Europe. Elle allège le budget de la justice. Or quand est-il du principe de l'égalité devant la loi ? La Lozère, comme lieu d'étude, permet d'examiner l'impact de ces différentes avancées. La ruralité et le conservatisme de ce département ont une influence sur l'appréciation de la criminalité et tout au long du procès pénalFrom 1814 to 1914, a slow movement of decriminalization begins according to the progress of the civilization. The penal code of 1810 containing mandatory sentencing, is no more adapted to the repression over time and political systems. Through the legislator, appears intermediate sentencing in case of extenuating circumstances. The law of 25 June 1824, voted under the Restoration, is the first one to correctionnaliser some crimes. But it is limited to some crimes and vote is reserved to the magistrates. The law of 28 Apr. 1832 is of a more considerable dimension. Besides that it modifies several articles of the penal code and of criminal instruction, it gives to the jury the right to grant extenuating circumstances. By generalizing their application, it modifies the article 463 of the penal code. It also abolishes the punishment mark and the capital punishment in nine cases. The law of 18 Apr. 1863 realizes a new sweetening of the criminal law. Under 3rd republic, the decree of 27 Nov. 1870, restores the extenuating circumstances for the punishments of simple police he previous law had abolished. Finally the law of 26 Oct. 1888, contraventionnalise. The application of the extenuating circumstances can be also influenced by other factors. The successive laws modifying the quantum of the vote of the jury as well as the various modifications relative to the recruitment of the jury's members has consequences on the appreciation of the fault and allows to compensate the excessive indulgence of the jury, making the punishment more sure. Other factor : the correctionnalisation before judgment. The individualization of the punishment lightens the budget of justice. It is considerable everywhere in Europe. But what's about the principle of the equality in front of the law ? Lozère department, as place of study, allows to examine the impact of these various developments. Rurality and conservatism of this department have an influence on the appreciation of the crime and throughout the penal trial

The presence and formation of Jewish identity in Brazil is usually discussed under the point of view of some great basic landmarks about the group, such as anti-semitism and its development in Americas. However, there are other perspectives about specific and daily elements, which are mainly related to the dynamics of community life of the Jews and Jewish, and how they were on Brazilian land. This research aimed to analyze these other possibilities in order to understand the formation of Jewish identity in Brazil during the period from 1945 to 1950. Furthermore, it took into account the importance of this period due to the end of authoritarian regimes, both in Brazil and Europe, the revealed traumas of the Shoah and the creation of Israel State as a Jewish place. From Porto Alegre city ? third largest capital in Jewish presence in Brazil ? it is possible to note that the face with so many changes that focus directly on Judaism, the Jewish identity in the diaspora brazilian appears to have faced long debates and internal disputes, seeking a reflection about their individual values and its consequences in the common group. These elements can be especially inferred from internal circulation journals in the Jewish community in Porto Alegre, and in the Hatikva, DROR-Zionist Socialist Youth Organization, Hamagbit and Kol Israel Almanac-Group Betar.
A presen?a e forma??o da identidade judaica no Brasil ? normalmente discutida sob o prisma de alguns grandes marcos basilares que dizem respeito ao grupo, como, por exemplo, o antissemitismo e seu desenvolvimento nas Am?ricas. No entanto, existem outras perspectivas que atentam para elementos mais particulares e cotidianos, que dizem respeito principalmente ?s din?micas da vida comunit?ria dos judeus e judias e como elas se constitu?ram em solo brasileiro. Esta pesquisa se dedica a analisar essas outras possibilidades de compreender a forma??o da identidade judaica no Brasil no per?odo de 1945 a 1950, levando em considera??o a import?ncia deste per?odo devido ao fim dos regimes autorit?rios, tanto no Brasil como na Europa, os traumas revelados da Shoah e a cria??o do Estado de Israel. A partir da cidade de Porto Alegre ? terceira maior capital em presen?a judaica no Brasil ?, ? poss?vel notar que, ao se defrontarem com tantas mudan?as que incidem diretamente no juda?smo, a identidade judaica na di?spora brasileira parece ter enfrentado longos debates e disputas internas, buscando uma reflex?o tanto dos seus valores individuais como seus desdobramentos na coletividade do grupo. Estes elementos podem ser especialmente inferidos a partir de peri?dicos de circula??o interna da comunidade judaica porto-alegrense, como no Hatikva, DROR - Organiza??o Juvenil Sionista Socialista, Kol Hamagbit e no Almanaque Israelita - Grupo Betar.

Full textAbstract:
Between July and December 1940 three contests were fought in British skies. The first was a battle for aerial supremacy between the Luftwaffe and the RAF. The second was a struggle inside the Luftwaffe to plan and follow a coherent strategy of attack. Third was a controversy among senior RAF commanders over the tactics required for daylight defence. Until mid-September, the Luftwaffe attempted alone to defeat Britain first by overwhelming Fighter Command, then by heavy bombing. It failed, partly, by starting too late and waging an unprepared campaign with unsuitable equipment. Fighter Command, possessing the world's best aerial defensive system, fought a tenacious battle for which it had been designed, namely the protection of the Home Base. From mid-September the Luftwaffe changed largely to night bombing, confronting Britain with an offensive more difficult to counter. For some months the RAF, lacking a suitable night fighter, appeared impotent in defence. This weakness was a catalyst for reservations felt by the Air council over the leadership, strategy and tactics employed by Sir Hugh Dowding, C-in-C, Fighter Command, who, in their eyes, had been uncooperative since pre-war days. When Churchill and Beaverbrook, previously his champions, appreciated that new leadership was needed in Fighter Command, more in tune with the aggressive role anticipated for the RAF in 1941, Dowding was replaced. With him went his protege, Keith Park, AOC No. 11 Group, who had borne the main burden of the daylight battle. Both later claimed that their removal stemmed from the Big Wing controversy over day fighting tactics, but other causes emerge from an examination of Dowding's career after 1936. Valid reasons can then be appreciated for his replacement; nevertheless, his later treatment by the Air Ministry and politicians was less, than honourable.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis examines theories of crisis management as they relate to 'sub-nuclear' crises, a term which refers to a class of international crisis occurring in an international system dominated by two superpowers, but not taking place directly between the United States and the Soviet Union. It is stressed that the approach adopted is not 'scientific' as are, for example, laboratory simulations and game theory analyses. However, the first two chapters do examine the nature of the theoretical models which underpin existing notions of crisis and crisis management and also formulate a definition of the term 'crisis' which is used in this thesis. Such a definition rests primarily on the perceptions of decision-makers themselves rather than on 'objective' systemic evaluations. Hence, the main unit of analysis is the decision-making group responsible for the formulation of policy. Yet, it is argued that a number of conceptual problems arise from an apparent predisposition, in the literature concerned with crisis and crisis management, towards the generation of theories which are designed primarily to explain the development of superpower crises. What is suggested is that a way of resolving these difficulties would be to try and reconcile the concept of 'crisis management' with that of the rationality of a use of 'limited war' as a means of ameliorating perceived political problems. It is noted that the purposes for which limited war was waged prior to the advent of nuclear weapons resemble the assumptions which govern behaviour observed during sub-nuclear crises. However, that there are significant factors which distinguish 'sub-nuclear crisis management' from both conventional crisis management and pre-nuclear era limited war strategies. The hypotheses of the first two chapters are tested in an analysis of the three historical crises which form the subject matter of the case studies: the crisis preceding the first world war, the Suez crisis of 1956 and the Falklands conflict of 1982. The concluding chapter of this study assesses the theory and practice of 'sub-nuclear crisis management' in the nuclear age.

Full textAbstract:
The evolution of British assessments regarding the threat posed by japan's strategy and military capabilities during the Pacific War is a subject that has been neglected. Using archival material that has been previously unused, this thesis will examine the manner in which intelligence influenced the British military establishment's perception of its Japanese adversary. Moreover, it will attempt to determine the effect that intelligence had on British war plans in the Far Eastern theaters. Using the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese conflict in July 1937 as the starting point, the thesis will illustrate the extent to which Britain's miscalculation of its adversary prior to Japan's declaration of war on the West in December 1941 was due to the absence of reliable intelligence. In addition to the obstacles created by the secretive manner in which Japan conducted its diplomacy and strategic planning, Britain's lack of first-hand experience in dealing with its adversary prevented its military establishment from grasping the dangers that could be posed by japan's expansionist moves. The shock created by Japan's spectacular victories in Southeast Asia following the outbreak of war in December 1941 was necessary to convince Britain that Japan was in fact both willing and capable of challenging the West. Furthermore, Britain's reverses brought home the extent to which its forces in the Far East were inadequate. As the conflict progressed, the British military establishment used the intelligence obtained through its encounters with Japan's armed forces in order to obtain an accurate picture the threat that its enemy could pose, as well as to determine the most effective means by which the challenges could be overcome. The thesis will therefore attempt to shed new light on Britain's conduct of its war against Japan by illustrating the extent to which first-hand combat experience was necessary in order to enable the military establishment to accurately assess its enemy, and to devise an effective strategy by which to defeat it.

Full textAbstract:
Ce doctorat se penche sur les conditions d’émergence d’une figure de « l’artiste universitaire » aux États-Unis au lendemain de la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Il s’intéresse au contexte intellectuel et politique qui a accompagné ce changement radical de paradigme dans l’enseignement artistique américain et tente d’en observer les répercussions sur les modalités d’écriture d’une histoire de l’art dont les instances productrices sont elles-mêmes considérablement renouvelées. Accordant une place importante aux réformes de l’enseignement supérieur, cette thèse souligne le rôle instrumental de cette nouvelle figure dans la requalification de la recherche universitaire entre les années 1930 et 1960. Toutefois, loin d’être la simple conséquence d’aspirations politiques, l’artiste universitaire s’incarne dans des parcours hétérogènes ne partageant pas nécessairement les mêmes pratiques ou les mêmes objectifs. De manière convenue ou plus inattendue, nombre d’artistes dont le nom a été associé aux universités ont participé à une refonte des modalités de production des savoirs. Pourtant la reconnaissance de ces contributions individuelles s’est avérée beaucoup plus problématique que la célébration générique d’un nouvel art américain porté par des artistes « éduqués ». Aussi, cette thèse s’attache-t-elle à observer ces questions sous un angle épistémologique et à mettre ce déficit paradoxal de crédit académique en regard de pratiques contemporaines de l’histoire et de l’histoire de l’art. Ce dernier aspect est plus spécifiquement étudié à travers le parcours de Donald Judd et sa volonté d’opposer à l’idéalisme philosophique européen une pratique « réaliste » de l’histoire de l’artThis doctoral thesis explores the conditions in which the figure of the ‘academic artist’ emerged in the USA following World War II. The intellectual and political climate for radical change in the American visual arts educational paradigm is evidenced as are its repercussions on the profound renewal of agencies involved in art history production. Importance is given to reform in higher education and the instrumental role the academic artist played in redefining academic research between the 1930s and the 1960s. Such figures were far from being merely aspirational in political terms as is apparent in their range of trajectories, their practices and goals which did not necessarily coincide. Many artists, whose names were associated with academia, contributed – some conventionally, others less predictably – to new ways of producing knowledge. Yet recognizing such individual contributions posed many more problems than the more generic celebration of the new American art personified by “educated” artists. My dissertation therefore views these issues from an epistemological standpoint, weighing what paradoxically was an academic deficit against contemporary practices in history and art history. The latter is examined through the specific case of Donald Judd and his determined stance against European philosophical idealism via the “realistic” practice of art history

Full textAbstract:
Thomas Hardy est le plus souvent considéré comme un auteur victorien. Cependant, son dernier roman intitulé Jude the Obscure annonce la modernité qui éclot à l'aube du vingtième siècle, lorsque l'auteur se tourne vers la poésie et qu'un autre écrivain, nommé Joseph Conrad, rédige ce roman aux mille voix qu'est Lord Jim. Derrière leurs œuvres se profile la réécriture de la tragédie qui renaît sous les espèces du tragique. Tess of the D'Urbervilles, à la tonalité pastorale parfois, rappelle les tragédies familiales des grands auteurs grecs. Avec Jude the Obscure, la ville a remplacé la campagne, la société a inéluctablement pris la place des dieux. Cette chute du divin s'affirme dans Lord Jim où le romantisme côtoie l'éclatement de la représentation dans une écriture moderne, puis plus nettement encore au travers des paysages blancs et froids de Under Western Eyes. Ces œuvres, tant par leurs différences que par leurs ressemblances, mettent en lumière le renouvellement qu'opère la modernité sur les genres et les formes du passé. Le style tragique utilise la lettre pour mieux la faire voler en éclat et s'oriente sur le pan de la voix : celle de l'écrivain qui se fait poète, celle de Jude qui se laisse bercer par son imaginaire, ou encore celle de l'indicible vérité qui borde l'horreur et surprend le lecteur occidental du texte conradienThomas Hardy is usually considered a Victorian writer. Nonetheless, his last novel entitled Jude the Obscure announced the era of modernity which started with the twentieth century, just before he abandoned fiction to become a poet, while Joseph Conrad was writing that deep-resounding novel entitled Lord Jim. With rising modernity in the background, it appears that their works allowed for the rewriting of tragedy, now revived as the tragic. Tess of the D'Urbervilles, whose tone may sound pastoral, recalls traditional Greek tragedies. In Jude the Obscure, urban settings have replaced the countryside, and society has definitely been substituted for the gods. Such a defeat of the divine is brought even further with Conrad : in Lord Jim, the romantic undertones are incessantly balanced by the explosion of the conventions of representation; the modern age is clearly perceptible in the white and cold landscapes of Under Western Eyes. These four novels, through their similarities and differences, show how modernity operates on genres and old forms of writing by regenerating them. The tragic as a style uses the letter the better to shatter it : so it does when the voice of the poet can be heard through the murmurs of Jude's imagination, or when unspeakable truth comes close to the horror and startles the Western reader of the Conradian text

Full textAbstract:
This thesis analyses and compares two historic commemorations in Northern Ireland with two in New Zealand, in the period from 1940 to 1990. These commemorations are the Twelfth of July and Remembrance Sunday in Northern Ireland, and Waitangi Day and Anzac Day in New Zealand. Examination of these commemorations has revealed several patterns. In the commemorations studied in this thesis, levels of public adherence generally depended on the extent to which the values that the commemoration symbolised were seen as threatened or highly needed. The commemorations which reaffirmed compelling values tended to enjoy higher levels of public support than those expressing values which were seen as either unnecessary or unthreatened. In both countries, historic commemorations were capable of uniting communities behind core values. However, in cases where there was no general agreement on what those values were or what they meant, commemorations frequently became sites of division and conflict. All four commemorations were regularly used by organisers and participants to express views on contemporary political and social issues and, on several occasions in both countries, different groups battled for the control of particular commemorations. In both countries, increased levels of social conflict often led to the increased use of the past as a rhetorical device. The main conclusion to be drawn from this study is that these historic commemora¬tions derived more of their meaning from their contemporary context than from the historical events which they commemorated. In particular, how the public viewed and understood the values symbolised and reaffirmed by the commemorations strongly affected their levels of support. People were most likely to observe the commem-orations when they were seen as symbolising values which were widely adhered to and seen as threatened or urgently needed. The historic commemorations examined in this thesis were often strongly affected by contemporary events which were seen as relating, positively or negatively, to the values which the commemorations embodied.

Exploration of the familial power women possess is growing as sociologists and anthropologists recognize the legitimacy of power internal to the family. The focus of this research was to uncover the forms of power German-Russian women held as they operated in the private sphere of the family. Attention also focused on the transference of women's power, and the family power dynamics unique to farm families. Members of three generations of one German-Russian farm family were interviewed. The results indicated German-Russian women operated from bases of power derived from their roles as farm wives who contributed to family sustenance, and as caretakers and kinkeepers, maintaining family cohesion. While male power is largely public and formal, women's reliance on the bonds of familial relationships across generations lend them greater power in that realm.

Full textAbstract:
L’institution municipale est restée à l’écart des recherches menées en histoire sur le 19e siècle sinon sous l’angle d’une prosopographie des maires et sous celui des élections municipales de la monarchie de Juillet. Les apports des autres sciences sociales – sociologie, anthropologie, ethnologie – ont renouvelé les approches, ainsi que l’histoire sociale fine. Cette recherche propose une analyse sociale et politique de cette institution, inscrite sur la longue durée (1800-1940) et sur un terrain resserré (un arrondissement et plus particulièrement cinq communes). Au moyen de bases de données relationnelles permettant une agrégation des données à différentes échelles de temps et d’espaces, elle vise à identifier les édiles (maires, adjoints, conseillers municipaux) pour eux-mêmes, dans une approche prosopographique, puis relativement pour définir leur représentativité (échelle de l’arrondissement) et pour les inscrire dans les relations qu’ils entretiennent avec les autres acteurs de la vie municipale (échelle communale).Cette analyse permet de mettre au jour une institution municipale que les villageois se sont appropriés au cours du 19e siècle, en reconnaissant une autorité au maire qui s’est construite d’abord dans l’opposition à celle du desservant et qui dépasse le cadre donné par la loi. De fait, les outrages à leur encontre sont peu nombreux et permettent d’appréhender non les limites de l’autorité consentie à la fonction mais le défaut d’exercice de son dépositaire. De même, les élections municipales font l’objetd’une préparation, d’une mobilisation et d’un contrôle – parfois jusqu’à la protestation électorale qui constitue alors un troisième tour – qui donnent la légitimité aux élus.L’identification des édiles a également permis de nuancer le portrait qu’il en est généralement dressé : s’il existe bien des familles éligibles parfois très anciennement implantées dans les communes d’exercice, la part de conseillers municipaux mobiles reste forte pendant tout le 19e siècle avant de se réduire progressivement. La reconstitution des carrières municipales montre aussi que l’accession au conseil municipal n’est pas définitivement acquise du fait d’une compétition électorale réelle.Quoiqu’un cadre légal précis préside la prise de décision au sein de l’institution municipale, la comparaison des modes de gouvernement d’une commune à l’autre fait émerger deux extrêmes, de l’exercice solitaire du maire à une décision prise collégialement par le conseil municipal dont le maire se fait le porteur. Entre ces deux extrêmes, les situations sont nombreuses et, si dans certaines communes, l’un s’impose davantage que l’autre, il existe aussi des mouvements de fluctuation en fonction des rapports de force qui se dessinent.Enfin, ce politique défini comme organisation du pouvoir au sein de la société, n’est pas enfermé dans les limites communales : les conflits au sein des conseils municipaux mettent au jour des réseaux sociaux qui sont également culturels et porteurs de sensibilités politiques ; c’est alors à une échelle intercommunale qu’ils prennent sens, marqués par les scansions nationalesHistorical researches on the nineteenth century have left aside Municipal institutions, except from the point of view of a prosopography of mayors and municipal elections of the July Monarchy. The contributions of other social sciences - sociology, anthropology, ethnology - have renewed the approaches, as well as the one on precise social history. This research puts forward a social and political analysis of this institution, registered on the long term (1800-1940) and on a tightened ground (a district and more particularly five localities).By means of relational databases allowing the aggregation of data at different scales of time and spaces, it aims at identifying the city councilors (mayors, deputies, councilors) for themselves, in a prosopographic approach, then relatively to define their representativeness (district scale) and to register them in the relationships they maintain with the other actors in municipal life (municipal scale).This analysis brings to light a municipal institution that villagers took over during the 19th century, by recognising an authority to the mayor and which was first shaped in opposition to that of the parish priest and which then overtook the given law framework. In fact, the outrages against them are few and allow to understand not the limits of the authority granted to the function but the lack of exercise of its depositary. In the same way, municipal elections deal with preparation, mobilisation and control -sometimes up to the electoral protest which constitutes then a third roundwhich brings legitimacy to the elected ones.The identification of the city councilors has also qualified the portrait that is generally drawn up: if there are many eligible families sometimes anciently established in the municipalities of exercise, the share of the moveable city councilors remains strong throughout the 19th century before gradually decreasing. The reconstitution of the municipal careers also shows that the access to the municipal council is not definitively acquired because of a real electoral competition

Full textAbstract:
This study was motivated by the latest revision of the mathematics syllabuses of the Cape Education Department. The most important changes to content in the Senior Secondary Mathematics Syllabus (July 1984) are the introduction of calculus and linear programming, the substitution of a section on analytical geometry for vector algebra and the recall of the remainder and factor theorems. The way in which these changes were introduced left the task of integrating them into the teaching process in the hands of individual teachers. This is a task of extreme importance. If one's classroom practice is to simply plough one's way through the syllabus, one loses many opportunities to make the study of mathematics meaningful and worthwhile. Accepting the view of the spiral nature of the curriculum where one returns to concepts and procedures at increasing levels of sophistication, one needs to identify the position of topics in this spiral and to trace their conceptual foundations. Analytical geometry is in particular need of this treatment. Similarly there are many opportunities for preparing for the introduction of calculus. If the teaching of calculus is left until the last moments of the Standard 10 year without proper groundwork, the pupil will be left with little time to develop an understanding of the concepts involved. It is the advent of calculators which presents the greatest challenge to mathematics education. We ignore this challenge to the detriment of our teaching. Taken seriously calculators have the potential to exert a radical influence on the content of curricula and examinations. They bring into question the time we spend on teaching arithmetic algorithms and the priority given to algebraic manipulation. Numercial methods gain new prominence. Calculators can even breathe new life into the existing curriculum. Their computing power can be harnessed not only to carry out specific calculations but also to introduce new topics and for concept reinforcement. The purpose of this study has been to bring about a proper integration of the new sections into the existing syllabus and to give some instances of how the calculator can become an integral part of the teaching/learning process

Following Russell Re Manning, I acknowledge the diversity and persistence of natural theology. Going further than Re Manning, however, I propose a 5-type taxonomy stretching from natural theology as natural religion to natural theology as theology of nature. Having met this descriptive responsibility, I then turn in a second chapter to prescriptive possibility in dialogue with the Anglican theologian Howard E. Root (1926–2007). An early advocate of natural theology and the arts, Root called in his 1962 essay, “Beginning All Over Again,” for awareness (i.e., of the arts) rather than formal argument. Critiqued by E.L. Mascall and others, Root responded in his 1972 Bampton Lectures, “The Limits of Radicalism.” Never published, I discovered these lectures in an uncatalogued box at Lambeth Palace Library, London. Drawing upon these lectures, as well as other archival materials, I consider Root's contribution to a natural theology of the arts. That said, Root's work requires further development, and so in an effort to recover Root I have supplemented his contribution with the more recent work of David Brown, his unacknowledged theological heir. In an effort to recover Root more fully I turn in a third chapter to consider the philosopher William Desmond, the result of which is a metaxologically reformulated Root-Brown hybrid. In a fourth and final chapter, I consider the American contemporary artist Jonathan Borofsky and several others in order to see how this theoretical frame might be applied in practice as a metaxological natural theology of the arts.

Full textAbstract:
Les attentats du 7 juillet 2005 à Londres ont causé un choc et un effroi dans la société britannique non seulement à cause du nombre important des victimes mais aussi en raison de la citoyenneté britannique des kamikazes. A l’exception de Germaine Lindsay qui était d’origine jamaïcaine, les autres membres de la cellule – Mohammed Siddiq Khan, Shehzad Tanweer et Hussib Hussain - étaient tous d’origine pakistanaise. Les kamikazes du 7 juillet 2005 n’étaient pas les seuls Britanniques d’origine pakistanaise impliqués dans des actes de terrorisme. Avant 2005, ils étaient nombreux à aller combattre auprès d’organisations djihadistes pakistanaises au Cachemire ou à commettre des tentatives d’attentat sur le sol britannique, comme ce fut le cas de la cellule de Luton en 2004. Après 2005, d’autres cellules, comme celle de Birmingham en 2011, ont essayé de commettre des attentats à une plus grande échelle. L’origine pakistanaise des auteurs, leur intérêt pour le conflit au Cachemire et leur entrainement paramilitaire dans les camps d’organisations djihadistes pakistanaises sont autant d'éléments communs qui nous ont conduit à nous interroger sur la nature de la radicalisation violente en Grande-Bretagne. Cette thèse examine la dimension pakistanaise de la radicalisation islamiste violente en Grande-Bretagne en se basant sur la théorie des mouvements sociaux, notamment le modèle de Quintan Wiktorowicz, selon lequel la radicalisation est le fruit de griefs politiques, socio-économiques et d’idéologie. Elle s’appuie sur dix études de cas : trois organisations djihadistes pakistanaises (Lashkar e-Toiba, Harakat ul-Mujahideen et Jaish e-Mohammed), trois organisations extrémistes transnationales (Hizb ut-Tahrir, Al-Muhajiroun et Supporters of Sharia) et quatre mouvements de l’islam sud-asiatiques (Ahl e-Hadith, déobandi, Tablighi Jamaat et Jamaat e-Islami). La thèse démontre qu’il y a une dimension spécifiquement pakistanaise de la radicalisation islamiste violente en Grande-Bretagne en raison de l’histoire coloniale, le conflit au Cachemire, la « guerre contre la terreur » et l’intervention militaire en AfghanistanThe 7 July 2005 London bombings caused shock and awe in the British society not only because of the important number of casualties, but also due to the British citizenship of the bombers. With the exception of Germaine Lindsay, who was of Jamaican descent, all the other members of the cell - Mohammed Siddiq Khan, Shehzad Tanweer and Hussib Hussain - had Pakistani background. The London bombers were not the only British Pakistanis who were involved in acts of terrorism. Before 2005, many went to fight alongside the Pakistani jihadi organisations in Kashmir or plotted against Britain such as the Luton cell in 2004. After 2005, other cells, like the one in Birmingham in 2011, planned attacks on a bigger scale on British soil. The Pakistani origin of the perpetrators, their interest in Kashmir and their paramilitary training in camps belonging to Pakistani jihadi organisations were common features that have raised questions about the nature of violent radicalisation in Britain. This thesis examines the Pakistani dimension of violent radicalisation in Britain by building on social movement theory, especially on Quintan Wiktorowicz’ model, according to which radicalisation is the result of political, socio-economic grievances and ideology. This research is based on ten case studies: three Pakistani jihadi organisations (Lashkar e-Toiba, Harakat ul-Mujahideen and Jaish e-Mohammed), three extremist transnational organisations (Hizb ut-Tahrir, Al-Muhajiroun and Supporters of Sharia) and four South-Asian Islamic mouvements (Ahl e-Hadith, Deobandi, Tablighi Jamaat and Jamaat e-Islami). The thesis shows that there is specifically a Pakistani dimension to the violent islamist radicalisation in Britain due to the colonial history, the conflict in Kashmir, the ‘’war on terror’’ and the military intervention in Afghanistan

Full textAbstract:
Životní příběh JUDr. Vladimíra Vochoče, který jsem si vybral jako téma své diplomové práce, se dá vnímat z několika perspektiv. Bezpochyby nejdůležitější je Vochočova činnost za II. světové války, kdy působil jako československý konzul v Marseille nejen po březnu 1939, ale i po porážce Francie. Podařilo se mu díky osobní odvaze a zevrubné znalosti mezinárodního práva udržet v chodu konzulát a pomáhat Čechoslovákům i německým a rakouským emigrantům ohrožených nacisty až do března 1941, kdy byl na nátlak Němců konzulát uzavřen. Z tohoto pohledu se Vochoč, dosud řadový úředník ministerstva zahraničních věcí, ukazuje jako "hrdina všedního dne", tedy člověk, který jakoby pouhým dodržováním úřední přísahy československému státu a zásluhou vnitřního přesvědčení dokázal tváří v tvář bezprostřednímu nebezpečí obstát ve zkoušce, ve které mnozí z jeho kolegů obstát nedokázali. Tato "hvězdná hodina" Vochočova života se stala ústředním bodem mé práce. Pro pochopení Vochočova postoje v krizových okamžicích během války je ale nutné přiblížit také období utváření jeho osobnosti, vlivu jeho rodiny a prostředí, ze kterého vyšel. V tomto okamžiku se ukazuje další možná perspektiva Vochočova životního příběhu vyrůstajícího z kořenů demokratické a silně vlastenecké rodinné tradice - účasti děda Františka na májovém spiknutí...

In the early developmetn of Tainan City’s Judo, delegations are largely recruited from the 1st -12th graders, and there was no clear distinction between social and school Judo activities. After that, Judo began to be developed in school physical education. According to the above-mentioned history, this study explores three demimanions of Judo development in Tainan City, namely (1) the background of its develpoment, (2) the development of social physical education , and (3) the developmet of school physical eductaion. The first dimension, background, introduces the backgroundof policy, economy and education of Tainan city to illustate the historical development of Jodo. Fowlloed by the historical background, this study further explores the process of Judo’s social development and the construction of Judo field from Japanese ruled period until now. The Last is the process of Judo’s developemtn of physical education. In 1969, the first student by recommendation to National Taiwan Normal University was Chi-shiou Weng who started his career from Judo but was recommended by his performance of wrestling. Then, Huei-shiung Chen was the first student by recommendation of Judo to Taichung College of Physical Education in 1971. In 2010, Tainan Chang Jung Senior High School won the first prize of society group. The number of school promoting Judo decraed to 1 senior and junior high school and 2 elementary schools.

Full textAbstract:
In August 1945 North China found itself in a situation where 'defeated' Japanese
troops were in possession of territory which was contested by several 'victors', including
both rival Chinese and foreign military forces. Not only did this complicate the process
of surrender, but it provided the opportunity and conditions for the resumption of civil
war. The placement of Japanese troops in places throughout the country put them in a
good position to counter CCP advances until such time that GMD troops could arrive to
take the surrender. In Shanxi, warlord governor Yan Xishan - Jiang Jieshi's commander
of the 2nd War Zone - had been living in quasi-exile in southwestern Shanxi. He took this
formula one step further by negotiating a set of conditions, some of which had been in
place before the surrender, under which the Japanese would 'surrender' only to his own
troops, and in fact to join him to fight against the communists who surrounded the cities
and rail lines.
During the summer of 1945, in anticipation of surrender, Yan moved closer to
Taiyuan, the capital, and began to negotiate his return there with the local Japanese
commander, along with formal acceptance of the surrender. When the war ended, he was
already moving his armies and himself toward the major cities, especially the Fen River
basin around Taiyuan. The 8th Route Army in Shanxi held the majority of the province,
for its own part, but their guerrilla strategy kept them away from the cities until after the
surrender.
Yan's familiarity with the Japanese allowed him a measure of flexibility
throughout the war which facilitated collaboration. By 1945 a virtual ceasefire existed
between them, and Yan moved his troops easily through their lines to attack the
communists. In addition, both Yan and General Sumita in Taiyuan recognized that
without each other they both faced certain defeat, and began preparing for the surrender
in Shanxi. Power was to be transferred under this scheme to Yan alone.
When the end of the war did come, then, Yan shuttled toward Taiyuan where, on
August 30, he arrived by armoured car, protected by his own and Japanese troops. With
Japanese soldiers still in positions along the rail lines and in many towns, He was not
only able to protect himself as he returned to Taiyuan, but denied the communists the
opportunity to expand from the countryside.
There presently exists very little in English on this topic. Recent source material
in Chinese, however, has made it possible to look in detail into the circumstances of
these events, and confirms that the surrender in August 1945 represented neither the end
of war nor the end of Japanese intervention in China.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis concerns the artworks of Donald Judd, particularly those created between 1979-1994 and installed at Fort D. A. Russell in Marfa, Texas and conserved by the Chinati Foundation. A brief examination of Judd's early sculpture and experimentation with serial imagery, as they relate to the Marfa works, is provided as are some of Judd's writings which assisted the development of permanent installation sites. A discussion of Judd's move from a traditional gallery/museum environment to an outdoor site in Texas during the 1970's is provided as well as a history of the Dia Art Foundation which developed partially in response to artists' needs. Two series in particular installed at Fort Russell--one hundred milled aluminum boxes and fifteen concrete groups--are given thorough examination. The ensuing litigation between Judd and the Dia, the creation of the Chinati Foundation, and later permanent and temporary installations in Marfa are also considered.

Full textAbstract:
This investigation centred on the perception and subjective interpretation of the artistic work, which is closely related to the experience of the spectator. My analysis thus focused on the spectator’s physical and perceptual interaction with specific works, which was activated by the effects of reflection.
Reflection is considered in the theoretical and philosophical writings of Merleau-Ponty and Jacques Lacan as a fundamental element in the construction of the identity and ego consciousness of each individual. I therefore analyse the impact of the theories of both philosophers on the conceptual approach to artistic production in the 20th and 21st centuries. The artworks mentioned here have in common the deepening of the collective perceptual experience. In these sculptural environments or installations each spectator constructs his or her perceptual experience of space from the interaction with others. Space is understood here as real space, including both architecture and nature. Reflection is in this investigation also approached from the technical and methodological point of view of the sculpture. In this case, it results from a combination of materials that were specifically designed and prepared by the artists to create the most diverse reflecting surfaces. Finally, a selection of original studies, experiments and sculptures is presented in the final chapter. They were conceived during this master's degree and stemmed from my experiences with reflection. The final chapter highlights two sculptural works and the conceptual process that preceded their production. It also emphasises the relationship between my artistic practice and all the research and investigation developed within the scope of this project.

Full textAbstract:
La fête nationale française, décrétée en 1880, vise à consolider l’adhésion à la Troisième République, régime né dix ans auparavant et toujours en déficit de légitimité. Malgré les efforts du gouvernement pour rejoindre les Français de toutes allégeances, des discordes idéologiques persistent et la fête nationale du 14-Juillet ne parvient pas à faire l'unanimité. Telle est la situation sociale et politique de la France à l’aube de la Grande Guerre. Alors que se multiplient les batailles et les pertes militaires, la conviction d'une guerre courte fait place à la réalité d'une guerre aussi destructrice qu’interminable. Les 14-Juillet de ces années-là démontrent la nécessité d'adapter les célébrations nationales à la réalité de la guerre totale et des besoins qu'elle engendre. Parallèlement, le deuil et la souffrance de la guerre ravivent les oppositions sociales et politiques d'avant-guerre, remettant en question les capacités du gouvernement à faire face à la situation, menaçant tant l'Union Sacrée que la République. L'entrée en guerre des États-Unis, en avril 1917, offre l'occasion à quelques hommes politiques prévoyants de rétablir la cohésion sociale autour des valeurs républicaines. En 1917, puis en 1918, le gouvernement mise sur l'union des fêtes nationales républicaines française et américaine pour ranimer l'espoir, le courage et le patriotisme de tous les Français. Au-delà de l'hommage rendu à un allié que l'on espérait plus, l'union des deux fêtes devient le symbole de la solidarité et de la fraternité qui unit les deux Républiques-sœurs, et réaffirme la force et la légitimité du régime français en place. Le 14-Juillet, emblème du parcours social et politique français, connaît donc, à l’occasion de la Grande Guerre, une mutation, une redéfinition de sens. À l'image de la France, « moderne », le 14-Juillet tel que développé lors du conflit, ne cesse de s'adapter aux besoins et à l'image d'une société en constante évolution.The French national holiday, Bastille Day, was established in 1880 to strengthen popular support to the Third Republic, a disesteemed political regime born ten years earlier. Despite the government’s efforts to rally French people of all allegiances, ideological discord persisted and the parties involved were unable to reach a unanimous decision regarding the national holiday of July 14. Such was the political and social situation in France in 1914, at the dawn of the Great War. While battles and military losses multiply, convictions of a short war gave way to the reality of an endless and destructive conflict. During the years of ceaseless battles, the celebrations of the Bastille Day demonstrated the necessity of adapting national holidays to the context and needs brought to a country by a total war. In parallel, the mourning and suffering birthed by the Great War revived pre-war oppositions, both social and political, thus undermining the Union sacrée, as well as the Republic. The United-State’s involvement in World War I, beginning in April 1917, offered to a few passionate and far-sighted political figures the opportunity to restore consensus among the French people on republican values. In 1917 and 1918, the French government united both French and American national holidays, in the hope to revive optimism, courage and patriotism amongst the population. Beyond the initial tribute to a long sought-after ally, the union of national holidays became a symbol of solidarity and fraternity between both republics, thereby reaffirming the strength and legitimacy of the French political regime in place. The French national holiday, emblematic of the social and political evolution of its people, faced a sense-defining mutation during the Great War. The “Modern” Bastille Day, as developed during the war, never ceases to adapt to the needs and image of the ever-growing society it celebrates.

This dissertation explains how and why some American artists investigated visual phenomena and heightened perception during the 1960s and 1970s. As an analytical account grounded in the perceptual experience of artworks and in archival research of the claims artists made for their creations, this study is centered around the themes of re-sensitizing one’s body and perceptual faculties, the process of empirical discovery, and the ultimate inability of language to satisfactorily describe sensory phenomena. In Chapter 1, I establish a brief intellectual history of research concerning the sensory faculties from fields in the humanities, including psychology, philosophy, and art history. In Chapter 2, I analyze Judd’s art-critical concept of optical phenomena and consider the art about which he wrote, including his own, on the basis of this tentative classification. In Chapter 3, I evaluate John Chamberlain’s lacquer paintings in terms of the visual phenomena generated by his innovative paint mixtures and application techniques, then consider his provisional separation of intuition and intellect. In Chapter 4, I examine Robert Irwin’s efforts to refine his visual attentiveness and, in the course of doing so, I also test the accompanying artworks he made that demand such unusually acute observation. In Chapter 5, I argue that distinguishing physical, pictorial, and reflected visual phenomena in Larry Bell’s pieces proves to be an exceptional challenge, a problem compounded by the inefficacy of trying to communicate visual discoveries using language. In the Conclusion, I demonstrate that by restoring the role of heightened perception and sensory discovery to the history of art of the 1960s and 1970s, this dissertation helps to preserve the complexity and variety of works made during that time.text

In this Master in Sculpture Studies we try to expose and analyze the question of space in sculpture, from the beginning of modernism to the present day, mentioning some close previous situations and following R. Krauss logic of expanded space in sculpture. In this sense, we look to a better understanding of how to transit from a closed space to a negative one, through the history of sculpture of the 20th century. Enunciating these same changes, focusing on the different approaches made before, from analyses of both artists thoughts, as well as artist’s deposition on writings and interviews among other sources. We wish above all, not loose sight of the relation’s between, artist, work of art and spectator, having has main concern the historical-conceptual dimension of the works of art in relation with space
