Tirtaine, Cecilia. "Le nouvel essor du cinéma britannique (1994-2004) : facteurs conjoncturels et structurels." Paris 10, 2008. http://www.theses.fr/2008PA100089.
Full textIn the mid-1990s the British cinema was thriving. The media was enthusiastic about the many successes both with the public and critics which the British cinema met, especially as it had been in a slump in the 80s. However, some were convinced that it was just a phase which would soon run out of steam as had already happened before. Actually, the history of British cinema shows a succession of crises and rebirths. It had a pool of talented artists, but, for these to be able to blossom and create a great variety of films, it could not do without money. A film cannot exist if there is no creativity. However, in order for the film to materialize and be seen by the public, it relies on big investment, both financial and human. It also depends on a complex system. The renaissance of the British cinema is therefore not due to one factor but studying the British film industry and its environment helps to explain this phenomenon. Examining how the relationship between government and film from the late 70s to the mid-2000s helps one to better understand the impact of some government policies on the cinema. The changes that took place in the three main sectors of the film industry – production, distribution and exhibition – are also among the essential factors which contributed to the new rise of the British cinema

Full textOver the last twenty-five years, London Transport has absorbed the political, economic and sociological changes of the capital city. The once white, male, working-class stronghold of an engineer culture has turned into a customer-focused service company open to diversity. The notions of Public Service and Corporate culture being defined, an analysis of the staff magazines and of confidential in-house documents will elicit the unchanged elements of London Transport's culture. It will also show how it has gradually been turned into a management tool. Studying the context of the changes experienced by the company will then reveal that the organisation bears the mark of a series of conflicts and traumas, and of constant uncertainty. However the attacks on July 7th 2005 proved to be a unifying shock. With their new identity as TfL, under the leadership of a former executive risen from inside the group, public transport in London may now consider the challenges to come with greater serenity

Full textEconomic developers assign an important role to territorial marketing in the relaunching of many of the old industrial areas in Europe. The study takes the concept of territorial marketing in the widest sense of presenting all the elements of an economic space in relation to the interests of the market. The research analyses the theories concerning why companies make investments abroad, as well as the theories concerning the location of these investments. The national organisations in Britain and France for attracting foreign direct investors are described and there is discussion concerning the region, in the european context, as the best possible unit for marketing economic opportunities to foreign companies. The techniques of marketing a territory, including advertising and promotions are examined ; the sales organisation and staffing of promotional agencies are reviewed. Two regions, Yorkshire and Humberside in Britain and Lorraine in France are described and compared. These regions have faced similar problems concerning the redevelopment of their old industrial areas. The activities of the organisations responsible for reconverting and marketing these areas are examined

Full textThis research focuses on The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, a British science-fiction comedy series created for BBC Radio 4 in 1978. Over the study period (1978-2009), the series was provided to the public in all possible formats that mass culture can offer. In its first years the series attracted a strong audience among teenagers, students and young adults. Douglas Adams, the series’ author, maintained control over all the incarnations of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. Over the course of his life, the author of this science fiction series, made to make people laugh, gradually became known as a ‘‘technology guru” by the press. Indeed, Douglas Adams had four great passions : computers, evolution of species, the Beatles and the Pythons. Therefore, this research endeavours to understand how these four topics were expressed in Douglas Adams’ life, the influence they had on Hitchhiker’s and how this series’ success shows the evolution of British society. The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy occurs at a time when expectations towards comedy were changing, as shown by the rise of Alternative Comedy. Hitchhiker’s breakthrough also takes place at a time when technology was gaining importance in daily life and geek culture was developing, at the crossroads of imaginary worlds and computer science. The series’ impact can also be considered as evidence of what the sociologist Mike Savage called the technical middle class. In addition, by creating a rock album for the radio, Douglas Adams created a fantasy consistent with the musical universe of the 1970s youth. The technology used in the radio studio stimulates creativity, just like the personal computer will do in the 1980s

Full textThis dissertation explores the genealogy of the cultural representations of the Middle-East from the 1850’s to the beginning of the First World War. To this end, I will analyze a wide range of documents. My primary sources will include photographic prints, travelogues, maps, topographical documents, private papers, press articles, parliamentary debates, essays, novels and official papers. On a large scale, an overall perspective will enable me to study the cartographic manufacture of the part of the Orient that was christened « Middle East ». I will assess to what extent the actors of British foreign policy gradually drew this region. On a much smaller scale, a micro-history will bring me at man's height, close to figures of British involvement in these territories, in-between India and Africa. By way of careful study of their representations, I will demonstrate that the British gaze on this part of the world was far from being hieratic and that it evolved within the span of a few decades. I will look to specify this chronology. I will also establish links between these constructions of the East and the ideals of contemporary British society, especially through the study of photographic representation of these territories, as well as the analysis of their archaeological exploration. I will have to question the part played by early mass culture in designing this distant territory. The issue raised by the potential imperial nature of British involvement in this Middle-East to be will call for an appraisal of the polycentric and contradicting expressions of British influence in the region
Musset, Anne. "Stage costume and the representation of history in Britain, 1776-1834." Thesis, Sorbonne Paris Cité, 2017. http://www.theses.fr/2017USPCC294.
Full textThis thesis explores the relationships between stage costume and British historical culture in the period 1776-1834. Until the painstakingly researched antiquarian stagings of the mid-nineteenth century, the history of historical stage costume has typically been described in terms of a stereotyped ‘Van Dyck dress’. Yet the period witnessed the expansion of antiquarianism and portrait print collecting, the development of the Picturesque and Neo-Gothic aesthetics, the success of historical novels and a general desire to know more about the habits and costumes of the past. This interdisciplinary analysis situates stage costume within the wider visual and historical culture of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. Drawing on theatrical material related to the London theatres as well as paintings, engravings, book illustrations, shows and exhibitions, this study argues that the representation of historical stage costume in the visual arts reflects new ways of conceiving and depicting history, in which interest in the everyday life of past periods and a focus on the material and the visual were fundamental. This thesis suggests that ht historical costume in the theatre and its representation in theatrical portraiture played a role in a broader process that sought to define British art and identity

Full textFollowing the global commercial success of The Mysteries of Paris (1842-1843) by Eugene Sue, literary markets were submerged by an incalculable number of works that proposed infinite variations on the title of the French novelist. Studying extensively the reception of Sue's famous novel and the mysterimania that it fired in France, Greece and Great Britain, this thesis questions the place that should be given, in cultural history, to the compulsive publication of mysteries promising their readers to unveil the secrets not only of the world that surrounded them, but also of history, science, politics, and so on. While discussing the conclusions of a prolific research that interprets the phenomenon as a specific novelistic genre of popular literature, this study argues for a more global approach. Pure product of Nineteenth-Century media culture dedicated to the representation of the world, “mysteriography” is the crucible of a new social imaginary of reading which was to become dominant with the gradual entry of European countries in the mass culture, from the 1860s and on : blending perfectly realism and sensation, the “mysteriography” crystallized the poetics which shaped the readings of the greatest number

Full textThe promotion of British culture in France is a recent political choice. Pragmatic and unsystematic between the two World Wars, this policy of cultural action becomes an experiment of cultural relations based on the psychological assistance given to refugees during the Second World War. Actually launched in 1944, it can not be developed farther than 1950 because of reduced means. As focus of this scheme of cultural promotion, the British Council organizes the main activities and tries to coordinate this action with other services which also play a part in the scheme : the British Institute in Paris and the B. B. C. British cultural policy gets in a movement of formalized cultural relations highlighting the principle of reciprocity. With the building of Europe, Britain recalls that she participates in European culture

Full textThis research is about cultural implications of schooling and is grounded on contributions from a set of British educational theorists and sociologists who have conducted since the sixties a systematic investigation about educational contents and their organization within curricula. In the first part of this study are brought forward three deeply divergent conceptions of curriculum and culture, which are held by the socialist thinker R. Williams, by the neo-conservative theoretician G. H. Bantock (who defends a "dualist" system of education in which high literacy and academic culture would be only for an elite) and by the philosopher P. H. Hirst (who is in search of rational epistemological foundations for the curriculum). The second part is about more specifically sociological contributions : influenced by "symbolic interactionism", social phenomenology, the sociology of knowledge and also, more and more from the mid-seventies onwards, by the neo-marxist paradigm, the "new sociology of education" (B. Bernstein, M. F. D. Young, G. Esland, N. Keddie, G. Vulliamy, G. Whitty. . . ) carries out a critical, "antipositivist" approach to the curriculum, which implies stressing school knowledge as "socially constructed" (and even "politically biased"). The third part is concerned with two great theoretical and pedagogical debates: one is about the relativist epistemological implications of the sociological critique of school knowledge, the other about the educational issues of cultural pluralism in contemporary societies. In conclusion, it is wondered whether any genuine intent to educate somebody shouldn't fundamentally require the commitment to values which are deeply founded (i. E. That can't be reduced to any utilitarist, relativist or cynical interpretation) and universally identified and shared

Full textThis research focuses on the art scenes in the cities of the North of England from the late seventies and the election of Margaret Thatcher at the head of the British government to the beginning of the 215` century. The production, exhibition, and reception of contemporary arts in Liverpool, Manchester, Leeds, Newcastle-upon-Tyne are studied in relation to the socio-political context of the time. These Northem cities have witnessed the progressive demise of their traditional economies based on manufacture and various industriel activities. The politics of Thatcherism during the 1980s increased the tensions in between north and south, the capital London and the provinces. During the 1990s, economic regeneration strategies involving arts and particularly contemporary visual arts have prevailed in the reconstructions of the urban, the economic, and identities in the North of England. This study looks at the development of the arts during the period in relation to this context of major social and economic transformations, considering the consequences in tenus of infrastructures, institutional policies of art exhibition, as well as oppositions, resistance, and more generally the interaction that connects the artists, artists practices, to the cultural policies, the evolution of the environment, of regional, national, and global economies, and the evolutions of British society locally and nationaley

Full textWe studied the interaction between society, political and economic life in Britain and Fringe theatre. This theatre tried to distinguish itself from mainstream theatre. It wanted to change society. Fringe theatre was created by young British artists and students who believed in the revolutionary spirit born from 1968 in France and who wanted to question the functioning of society and of its institutions. They were usually very commited and their political preference was clearly situated on the left. They were helped by an undergroung press which announced in advance their spectacles and by a young and dynamic public. Some pioneers like Joan Littlewood set the basis for fringe theatre : her aim was to present unknown authors or beginners, to make people from working classes come to the theatre, to write collectively and when possible to make the public participate. The themes of her plays, like many other playwrights of this theatre had to do with current events and the life of the public. The generation of students who had lived the May 68 events (D. Hare, H. Brenton, T. Griffiths, C. Churchill. . . . ) wanted to fight against the society of abundance, to commit in demonstrations like the Vietnam war or the nuclear. Groups considered as minorities (women, black people or homosexuals) made themselves heard with subjects in relation with their groups. They are felt concerned with the political life of Great Britain and would share their daily problems or their description towards government or towards the system they would dream of. The public liked their theatre so much that many of playwrights were recuperated by the established theatre. Then their aims and motivations completely changed. Events like the fall of Berlin wall or the collapse of communism in many countries challenged their commitment. Fringe theatre then lost its strengh
Quinn-Lautrefin, Róisín. "Through the "I" of a needle : needlework and female subjectivity in Victorian literature and culture, 1830-1880." Thesis, Sorbonne Paris Cité, 2016. http://www.theses.fr/2016USPCC278.
Full textThis thesis deals with the question of needlework in Victorian literature and culture. Needlework is a constant and recurrent motif in nineteenth-century novels, and crystallises the many complex and contradictory feelings of satisfaction or resentment, creativity or censorship, elation or utter dejection that are crucial to the formation of the nineteenth-century female subject. In spite of its ubiquity, however, it has long been ignored or dismissed by critics as trivial, unimportant or revealing of the limitations imposed on Victorian women's lives. This thesis seeks to complicate previous assumptions by taking needlework on its own terms and exploring the complex and sophisticated tenets that underlie it. Relying on a large range of sources - novels, poems, magazines, craft manuals and material objects - this work examines the ways in which sewing has participated in the articulation of female subjectivity. Because it was construed as the ultimate feminine occupation and was undertaken by virtually ail women, regardless of age or social class, it was central to their identities and experience. However, needlework was fraught with contradictions: it was both amateur and professional; it enshrined the domestication of women, but it was closely allied with industrial modes of production; it was resented by many intellectually ambitious women, but was invested by others as a formidably evocative means of self-expression. Rather than a reclusive activity, then, Victorian needlework was a highly sociable practice which was fully engaged in the social, economic and cultural issues of its time

Full textBrittany lost many of its men in the Great War. The heritage of memorials and commemorations created to honour them is commensurate with the magnitude of this human slaughter. To what extent does such a heritage reflect traditions and a specific culture? As throughout France glorifying and patriotic memorials were erected to pay homage to the soldiers, but Brittany also wanted to emphasize its own identity. A long religious tradition is reflected in most of the monuments; the strength of the province's own specific culture gave rise to regionally inspired statuary with characters portrayed in local costume and inscriptions in the Breton language. The same assertion of identity is to be found in the churches. There is a constant desire to commemorate the sacrifice. In two town halls this is depicted in painted panels. A national memorial in remembrance of the sailors who died for France was erected at the western extremity of Brittany. A regional memorial, of a religious nature, is more specifically dedicated to the memory of those Bretons who died in the war. This uncommon heritage, to which was later added a national necropolis, bears witness to the region's history and to the vitality of its culture

Full textIn this thesis, the variousaspects of the reception and the fortune of the fairy tales of the baroness of d’Aulnoy at the end of the 19th century are examined, allowing enriching the critical analyses about classical fairy tales and their perception in modern time. In first place, new editions of the tales, printed from from first years of the 19thcentury, until the first years of 20th are examined. The composition of volumes and the shape of the texts make it possible to understand how it is only at the end of the 19th century that Mrs. d'Aulnoy starts to be regarded as a classical author. She begins to be considered as a writer that proposes to the readers original marvelous tales and not a simple rewriter of folk tales. The analysis of the rewritings and the transpositions allows, on the other hand, to understand the role of the baroness and her work in the renewal of marvelous literature at the end of the century. In fact, the complete rewritings of some of its tales present some stylistics features that can be connected with the perverted marvelous, typical of the end of the century. That makes it possible to seize the interest which the authors of this time carry on the figure of the writer. She begins to be perceived as a model, on the same level as Charles Perrault, which justifies the presence of complete rewritings of its work. On the other hand, the presence of some themes and characters that can originally be found in Mrs. d’Aulnoy’s works inside new works allows to better understand the importance of the literary memory in the renewal of marvelous literary genre. In the end, the transpositions for the theater can only be found in the English culture. The tales of the baroness d’Aulnoy which take part in this phenomenon allow a deep renewal of certain genres of the classical theater and the creation of new ones, presenting, for the first time, characters and topics linked to grotesque. This work allows therefore, to stress the range and the importance of the production of a writer which, has been forgotten for a long time and to highlight in which direction its tales contributed to enrich the marvelous at the end of the century

Full textThe current thesis examines John Mc Grath's theatrical activities as a playwright, as a director or as a theoretician, between 1958 and 1991. It estimates the etthical dimension of the intervention of the playwright, and the aesthetical implications of his wish to communicate with popular audiences. It inevitably questions the value of such concepts as : political theatre, parallel or fringe theatre, "Ceilidh-plays", interventionist theatre, carnival theatre. It situates John Mc Grath's works within national and international heritages. A contemporary bias will inevitably try and appreciate the validity and developments of two tools, privileged in the study of the activities of the playwright: sociology and semiotics. The questions of modernism and post-modernism, of short-lived and lasting works, of distanciation and identification, of universality and contextualisation inevitably arise out of a study whose key object is the process of creating and communicating, from writing to staging, with audiences who have usually been enstranged from official theatres. Epic, John Mc Grath's specific art of writing and staging has first been rooted in the regional cultures of liverpool and the industrial areas in the north of england, before reflecting the diversity of the popular traditions in scotland. Innovating in designing the aesthetical shapes of a theatrical contribution to the moves of contemporary societies, john mc grath allows us to consider the survival of his works and of those theatrical trends which ground their activity on the key place granted to history

Full textThere are three important new elements in seventeenth century england as far as gardens are concerned : the birth of botany as a science, the division between the garden for vegetables and the garden for pleasure, and the grant of royal charters to the gardeners and fruiterers of the city of london. Through the contemporary gardening books, plans and descriptions, we try to capture the originality of the small gardens of this period. Beyond their ornaments, designs and techniques which at first seem backward, we can find a spiritual quest, which will grow during the years of the commonwealth. The gardener tries to understand the position and attributions of man within nature and to get nearer to god through contemplation and meditation. The garden connects itself to a whole artistic and moral context. The quest for beauty through the sense of order enters into the baroque. Landscape painting, architecture and stage scenery are brought together into a single thought on the links between art and nature. The world of gardens combines them concretely and sheds a new light on the relationship between man, nature and god

The cultural policies adopted by the WYP are in keeping with the policies espoused at both national and regional levels. This policy integrates training, educational and community activities, new writing, contemporary productions, international productions, artistic excellence, cultural diversity, better theatre attendance, collaboration, and increased means. As part of its cultural policy, and in addition to its theatre production and performance activities, the WYP has been offering educational and community activities for several years now. These are aimed at a broad spectrum of society that includes children, senior citizens, and ethnic minorities. In this way and to the extent it can, the Playhouse contributes to the artistic and cultural development of its region

The theoretical basis for this analysis resides in the field of legal cultures and legal series as well as the pedagogical approach of the "Silent Way" in order to show how these programmes create an environment that encourages students to acquire knowledge of common law culture and legal English in an autonomous and economic way. A brief description of an experience using such shows in the context of a university course and a survey conducted with a number of legal English teachers in France, confirmed a significant interest with regarding the use of series and films as teaching aids. The data found in the English and American series of the corpus studied here, is analysed through an empirical comparative approach which reveals similarities and differences with respect to such aspects as the legal professions and courtroom ritual in these two common law countries

Full textSince 1989, nationalism has once again become a major discursive theme in European public and political spaces. Nationalism has thus become “banalised” (according to Michael Billig), relegating the complexities of social histories to mere cultural ‘Others’. The common origin of the resulting social and symbolical tensions can be found in the promotion of State-centred nationalist discourses. The dominant discourse on national identity aims for the reproduction of a continuity of traditional national values and histories in reaction to the threat it perceives in the presence of multiple ‘Others’. This transversal study presents a social-historical analysis of the endurance of national imaginaries and of the modern paradigm of exclusion they reproduce. By elaborating a theoretical framework as an open system (Edgar Morin) to make sense of the complex relations between texts, ideology and the social imaginary, the aim of the thesis is the analysis of the dynamic symbolic promotion, expression and contestation – negotiations of social signification – of national imaginaries. Basing on the study of texts expressing these negotiations, the formation and consolidation of British, French and Polish national imaginaries in the late modern period is articulated through this framework. The analysis then focuses on mainstream political discourses in Britain, France and Poland between 2004 and 2009 which is contrasted with the analysis of contemporary texts of popular culture

It swung back from britain where it had been adapted by exotic provocative white bluesmen who popularized this once despicable negro music. Young white misfits thus protested against the profit-seekers still under the threat of a nuclear holocaust. Trying to consider the face value of objects, not thoughts. Led by the simplistic lyrics of pop songs they came to think of the making of their own lives as happenings. The myth of a classless society, enhanced by the media in control of the establishment, easily withstood the criticisms of yelling pop singers, the underground press and the drug-addicted hippies. Their very existence proved the tolerance of the system they were so unfairly permitted to criticize

Full textIn a culture which oscillates between modernity and postmodernity, marketing evolved from a product-oriented to a consumer-approach where the consumer behaves first as a passive receiver to become an active agent of dissemination of the company offer. The interactivity of this marketing culminates in viral marketing. Our thesis defines the various dimensions of this marketing and presents his effectiveness factors, on the basis on a qualitative investigation set in collaboration with certain experts and companies, and on a sound analysis of the various researches devoted to this marketing since its appearance. It ends with the proposal of a methodological framework for the conduct an effective viral operation on the basis of a practical case : the launching of a cultural center. This opening recalls that marketing, in itself, is subjected to the cultural environment in which it is implemented

Full textThis dissertation explores the reception of the Eastern Question in Britain between the 1875-6 Eastern crisis (marked by the 'Bulgarian atrocities') and that of 1894-8 (which corresponds to the episode of the 'Armenian massacres' and to its consequences), as well as the impact it had on British political culture. l will rely on contemporary evidence to question the two main historiographical positions that the Eastern Question was, at the time, just a diplomatic issue and that ~ts only impact on British political culture was the contest that opposed Disraeli and Gladstone between 1876 and 1880. Instead, it will be argued here that the impact of the Eastern Question in Britain goes well beyond 1880 and is both multi-faceted and extremely complex. Without down playing its diplomatic and geopolitical relevance, l will seek to assess its rhetorical, cultural and ideological influences on British politics
Lavroukine, Nina. "L'intelligentsia anglaise et la fièvre russe : 1910-1917." Paris 3, 1988. http://www.theses.fr/1989PA030095.
Full textThe aim of this work is to capture the image of the English intelligentsia in its quest for an identity at the time when the Russian craze reached the height of its intensity with the vogue for Diaghilev, and the cults of Dostoevsky and Chekhov. It was in this particular context that the English intellectual elite chose to adopt for itself the Russian term intelligentsia. The Russian craze, a phenomenon of collective hysteria, was fuelled by the myth of the Russian soul, a cliched phrase of western thought. Following the anglo-russian agreement of 1907, this myth became a propaganda instrument intended to rally public opinion hostile to rapprochement. This explains the part played by the myth in the campaign of enticement led by the press. With the strengthening of the entente into an alliance (1914-17), church and state joined forces, using the slogan of the soul propagated by men of letters. From the aesthetic soul of the Russian ballet, the soul made sacred by Dostoevsky, then trivialized by Chekhov, the myth responded to the needs of an age in crisis. The Russian craze, symptomatic of an England in transition, proved the catalyst for change in the English intelligentsia as the agent of a new self-awareness and the promoter of new aesthetics

Full textThis is a comparative study of the production and programming of science en hertzian television in france and great-britain. The processes of making and programming are considered in their respective environments. The object of the comparison is to reveal what factors make the french system apparently less effective than the british one, taken as reference. The comparative analysis is based on a literary survey completed with interviews. Elements taken into account are : scientific culture of the publics, media contexts (in a historical perspective), the functioning of main production units and their output. The main result of the present work is to bring to light the importance of institutional factors. In particular, the role of legislation and regulatory bodies in the production and programming. Impact of financial arragements on content and types of programmes is also shown. The comparison also assesses how the public's scientific culture affects the systems. But it invalidates the hypothesis of a less favorable public in france than in england. At the outcome, this analysis offers a detailed classification of television. This enables a differentiation of science information in both countries and renders production and programming conditions
Leonetti, Antoine-Jean. "Les autonomies administratives en matière culturelle en Espagne, au Royaume-Uni et en France." Paris 1, 1997. http://www.theses.fr/1997PA010319.
Full textThe purpose of administrative autonomy in matter of culture is to protect the artist against all political interferences (autonomy of the cultural field towards the political field), and to protect all the expressions of culture, concerning living arts or cultural memory (cultural identities, heritage). Also, autonomous administrations must only deal with cultural subjects. Spain, U. K. And France have experienced various types of autonomy since the renaissance. Today, the autonomy appears in spain in the case of autonomous communities arts departments, in the U. K. With the nations' arts councils (based on the arm's length principle) and the regional arts boards, and in France with the cultural decentralization. The constitutional dispositions about art facilities and multiculturalism - objects of real "cultural constitutions", even if not written - are still very different according to the countries. Although international law and european law are in favour of a recognition of cultural minorities at a national level, france refuses constitutionnally such recognition. Nevertheless, some convergences do appear between the three countries, with the multiplication of autonomies at a local level, and the developpement, by supreme court decisions (Spain) or statutes (France, U. K. ), of concurrent cultural competences between the different public authorities in each country. In france, the notion of "pays" since a 1995 act may compensate today the local authorities' lack of cultural identities. Yet, the strong politisation of arts administration challenges the reality of administrative autonomies in matter of culture

Full textBetween 1801 and 1949 there were two successive states in ireland, the british state and the irish state. In order to study them this thesis is divided into four main parts. The first, entitled ireland in the british state, deals with the setting up of the union, the three major issues : religion, the constitution and the economy, which were of such importance for the development of the state. The second part, entitled the british state in ireland, studies the workings of the state through its government, administration, local government, electoral system and elections. In turn it questions state differentiation from civil society and considers the integration of ireland in the state. The birth of the irish state is the title of the third part. The collapse of the old order in a context of popular and state violence is its object. In the fourth part, the developments of the irish state are investigated. The nature of the new state is studied through an analysis of its constitutions, the effects of the civil war, the creation of its new institutions, its links with great britain and its quest for international recognition

Full textIn 1730, the masonic network reached Bengal as a first lodge was opened for and by the officials of the East India Company. From there, colonial lodges spawned to the point where in the space of a decade, British freemasonry had reached an international dimension. Its universalist ideology aimed at promoting a true brotherhood of Man. But when the first lodges were constituted in the British Empire, they became a vehicle for British imperialism, which was founded on the alleged 'superiority' of the colonizer. This obvious contradiction between freemasonry’s universalist rhetoric and its contribution to British imperialism raises several questions. How did freemasonry reach British India and how did it spread? Was it open to the initiation of natives? Where did it stand exactly as regards British imperialism? And more importantly, how was freemasonry able to negotiate the tension which emerged from the obvious contradiction between its universalist and egalitarian ideals and the support it lent to British imperialism? So many questions this thesis seeks to answer. Colonial India, based on its complex mode of governance and the great diversity of its native populations, is a fertile ground on which to study the interactions between freemasonry and colonial power. This thesis attempts to offer new insights into the workings of freemasonry together with a different approach to British imperialism

Full textThis doctoral research work is embedded in the field of applied linguistics but it is also based on Educational Sciences research. Its main goal is to study grammar teaching practices in the school context of England. The specificity of this field lies in the fact that learners are only slightly exposed to explicit grammar learning during primary school. Therefore, they are trained to think about language as they start their first modern foreign language lessons at school. Our research aims at understanding in what ways modern foreign language teachers bring their students to develop their language awareness in this particular context. We wish to figure out whether teachers use peculiar strategies to make up for the lack of metalinguistic awareness of their students. To do so, we conducted an exploratory and qualitative field research built on a holistic, ecological and interdisciplinary approach, taking into account the various foreign languages taught at school (German, Spanish and French). The collected data (MFL classroom observations and teachers semi-structured interviews) has revealed interesting analytical perspectives which bring light on teachers’grammar practices

Full textThe years 1707 and 2011 hold a particular significance in the history of Scottish nationalism. Whereas the union of the kingdoms of Scotland and England gave way to the negotiation of a Scottish identity held within the larger structure of the British State, the victory of the "Scottish National Party" in the parliamentary elections symbolises the rise of a party claiming political independence for Scotland to a position of power. This thesis explores the nature of Scottish national sentiment and its representations while analyzing the role played by the national territory in the construction of nationalist thought. The concept of territoriality developed by Jan Penrose on the concept of rhizome as defined by Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari are used in order to demonstrate that harnessing the representations of the Scottish national sentiment spawned two diverging conceptions of the national territory which still shape Scottish national identity

Full textThe New Zealand Wars are the conflicts in which British fought Maori tribes for the control of New Zealand in the XIXth Century. Their origin can be traced back to the divergent interpretation of the Treaty of Waitangi, signed in 1840 with most prominent Maori chiefs. This treaty is in fact a taking of control of New Zealand by the United Kingdom. From the « Wairau Incident » in 1843 to the surrender of chief Te Kooti in 1872, these conflicts were fought almost exclusively in New Zealand’s North Island. One of the longest crises of the Victorian era, these conflicts were also the first open conflict between Europeans and a Polynesian people, and the only one with such a large scale. In this regard, these conflicts are meaningful because both sides had to implement deep changes in their strategy. Capitalizing on their warrior culture and the experience acquired during the intertribal wars of the beginning of XIXth Century, Maori adapted outstandingly. For example, the pa (Maori traditional fortifications) changed drastically and became the center of Maori strategy. As for British, they had to adapt the tactical procedures used in other colonial conflicts while using the might of their empire to prevail. This research focuses in particular on mutual adaptation processes in colonial conflicts and their legacy, since pa heralded trench warfare and dug out shelters

Full textBeyond Documentary Realism: Aesthetic Transgressions in Contemporary British Verbatim Theatre Verbatim theatre, a type of performance based on actual words spoken by ‘real people’, has been at the heart of a remarkable and unexpected renaissance of the genre in Great Britain since the mid-nineties. Simultaneously, contemporary British theatre-makers claimed to have found a renewed avenue to politics through this particular medium. In spite of recent shifts in the British theatrical landscape as well as the much-vaunted postmodern culture of anti-realism, documentary realism is generally conceded to have remained the normative mode of presentation for verbatim plays on stage. Through a comparative examination of seven representative verbatim productions, this dissertation argues, however, that there has been an equally persistent strand of verbatim works that involves a move away from realism as the key element in performance. These productions make use of a wide variety of aesthetic experiments that broaden and transgress what we might understand as verbatim theatre. The strategy adopted by this study is thus to read verbatim theatre against the grain of its claim to ‘authenticity’ and ‘truthfulness’ and to suggest the need for a discourse which better articulates an interdependence between its aesthetic imperatives and the possibilities of social engagement. Finally, this dissertation accounts for the existence of a range of aesthetic variables in present-day verbatim theatre which is aimed at more media-aware contemporary audiences. These are grouped into three theoretical positions, each of them being analysed and discussed in a separate part and illustrated by case studies. It is hoped that, through this argument, the changing aesthetics of verbatim theatre will be illuminated and that – on however small a scale – this doctoral dissertation will contribute to a critical history and theoretical formulation of the complexity of this rich field as both a scholarly discipline and a lived practice
Délen, Claire. "The Huntley and Palmers biscuit company (Reading, 1841-1977) : a history." Thesis, Sorbonne université, 2018. http://www.theses.fr/2018SORUL136.
Full textThis thesis recounts the history of the Huntley and Palmers biscuit company, based in Reading from 1841 to 1977. It examines the development of the company through the successive innovations and modernisations, from the traditional family firm to the modern firm that would eventually be absorbed by larger groups. This work studies the impact of the biscuit giant on British society and on the world at large by a survey of its production, in terms of food as well as visual production, by using elements of material culture present in the company’s official archives as well as original collections. It also investigates the question of paternalism and paternalist practices at Huntley and Palmers’, so as to locate these measures and the ideology behind them in a national context. These practices are assessed in the light of the different varieties of paternalism and enable us to map the evolution from a typical nineteenth-century brand of paternalism towards institutionalised “new paternalism” followed by a form of “post-paternalism” characteristic of modern companies. Finally, the thesis lays emphasis on combining the employers’ perspective with that of the employees in order to go beyond the vision of the company that transpires from the official archives

Full textIn 1596, the jew, as represented through shylock, was a satanic usurer, a stereotype inherited from the medieval religious and literary tradition. However the development of hebraic and biblical studies culminated in the publication of the "authorized version" of the bible in 1611. The puritans' keen interest in apocalytic prophecies then increased with the circulation of fantastic reports about the lost ten tribesof israel whose miraculous return to jerusalem was to herald the exiled nation's restoration and mankind's redemption. Jewish messianism and protestant millenarianism thus shared the same longing for an event most thinkers deemed imminent. Such a hope was expressed by menasseh ben israel on behalf of his brethren whose readmission to england he requested from cromwell. Besides, numerous theologians argued for the calling of the jews whose conversion would hasten the second coming of christ. But henry finch was the first writer to promote a political restoration of the jews to palestine. Favouring menasseh ben israel's petition, cromwell convened a conference at whitehall in 1655 to consider the question, thus rousing a fierce debate. Though no official decision was taken, readmission became effective for the small london marrano community. The presence of judaism was even more obvious in literature, especially in milton's works and his "paradise lost" (1667)

Full textThis thesis aims to contribute to the description of specialised languages in English for Specific Purposes research by characterising English for diplomacy within the British Foreign and Commonwealth Office and the U.S. State Department. We adopt a multidisciplinary perspectiveto explore the interplay between specialised diplomatic discourse, language and culture and to determine the foundations of professional diplomatic specialisation.Part one presents a theory of specialised languages belonging to a specific research paradigm related to specialised language study, which sees specialised languages as objects for characterisation that are separate from a given pedagogical context. This theory is applied to the professional domain of diplomacy and associated with a tripartite methodology designed to situate specialised diplomatic discourse in its pragmatic and cultural context.Part two focuses on the characteristic discourse genres of the British and American diplomatic community, and includes a general genre typology and two corpus-based studies of the diplomatic memoir and the diplomatic cable. The final part of the thesis analyses diplomatic lexisthrough a diachronic study of lexicographical normalisation efforts in the diplomatic field, and an overview of contemporary diplomatic terms in English. Diplomatic culture is then envisaged from the vantage point of a sociological enquiry into discursive practices in the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, based on a series of qualitative interviews

Full textIn 1939, as war had just broken out, the Council for the Encouragement of Music and the Arts (CEMA) was created in Great Britain to finance the arts. Four years later, the same organisation was established in Northern Irelad because of the pressure coming from the London government. As it was not born out of regional political conviction, CEMA (NI) struggled for years to get the principle of public support for the arts accepted.The present work studies this organisation, which was renamed Arts Council of Northern Ireland (ACNI) in 1963, under various angles: political, economic, social, cultural and, of course, artistic. It will also question the arm’s length principle and the separation between the realm of politics and that of the arts that the Council was supposed to guarantee. Indeed, even though the role and the budget of CEMA were extremely limited in 1943, the Council progressively acquired numerous responsibilities. This did not go unnoticed by the unionist government, which sought to control CEMA/ACNI and how it distributed grants. With the outbreak of the Troubles in the late 1960s, the Council increasingly isolated itself in order to be recognised as neutral in the conflict. However, this also pushed it to put in place a policy that was perceived as elitist and cut out from the population. In the 1990s, the Peace Process gave ACNI a new role in the promotion of reconciliation between the communities. With the creation of the Department of Culture, Arts and Leisure in 1998, the Council was further integrated into the cultural policy framework of the regional and power-sharing government. Nevertheless, culture remained a sore point and a divisive issue in Northern Ireland, with academics going as far as to say that the conflict has now become a cultural war

Full textHow do English teachers teach culture? Which types of culture and cultural competencies do they target? What are the objectives, the educative goals, the methods and the strategies used to teach culture? This doctoral thesis is comprehensive with an ecological approach. It mainly focuses on observables related to the teachers, their interpretations of the situation under study and their students’ interpretations (Altet, 2003). In this perspective contextual elements have been defined and several concepts and theories have been investigated so as to study the concept of culture from several angles. The aim of this research is to develop a deeper understanding of the processes at work, to be grasped within the paradigm of complexity (1990, Morin). The conceptions and the teaching practices developed by English teachers to teach culture have been studied thanks to an empirical inquiry. This enquiry consists of a questionnaire and of a series of interviews made before the teachers’ lessons were filmed and after they were filmed. The pre-interviews were semi-directive and the post-interviews were simple self-confrontation interviews. Students who took part in the lessons that were filmed were also interviewed. The results show that these English teachers have developed a professional genre when teaching culture. Along with this shared teaching genre a wide range of personal teaching styles have emerged
Chauou, Amaury. "L'idéologie Plantagenêt en Occident : (XIIe-XVe siècles)." Rennes 2, 2000. http://www.theses.fr/2000REN20027.
Full text@Henry II Plangenet, King of England, gathered a brilliant court society in an ideological purpose to take over a mythical character of British past : King Arthur. This fabulous protector provided the Plantegenet monarchy with three main benefits. Through the means of the succession of the ancestral kings of Britain, of Troyan origins, he legitimatized the angevine dynasty. He could also be useful to bring unity between the different lands of the Plantagenet empire, thanks to a common reference. Next, he was able to stand in opposition to Charlemagne's legend, which the Capetian kings exploited in a political way. The Plantagenet court took up again the arthurian tradition after Geoffrey of Monmouth to elaborate on it. Authors such as Wace or Benoit de Sainte-Maure has been patronized to link a chronicle of the Normans with a chronicle of the British in order to create a huge work of propaganda in favour of the Plantagenets. They have been helped in that way by authors of the Matter of Britain, such as Chretien de Troyes, who, regardless of the king of England, favoured the Plantagenet monarchy by spreading a model of courtly kinship. This one, at the junction of the feudal and secular conception of the king as a primus inter pares, and of the augustinian and gregorian notion of the king as a sovereign, whose power lies in supernatural origins, found its best translation in the myth of the Round table. This political mythology has been reinforced by the connection of the arthurian kingship with the themes of the translated imperii and of the translatio studii, which pointed out the Plantagenet lands for the fulfilment of chivalric and christian times. The discovery of the so-called remains of King Arthur at Glastonbury Abbey achieved the anglo-angevine propaganda by transposing it into reality. The Plantagenet ideology enjoyed an extraordinary diffusion through Western medieval Europe thanks to its consubstantial links with the Matter of Britain. Its political consequences were of the highest importance for King Richard, King Edward I and King Edward III. But it is on the socio-political ground that its influence grew the most, because many princely courts adopted the chilvaric ideal of the arthurian kingship

Full textBy 1962 with the beginning of Pop art, the iconography of illustration and advertising points the development of an art founded on graphics. Interestingly, the relations between Pop art and drawing allow to follow how the handmade practices reassess the artists’ positions towards mass culture and deal with material issues (such as manual involvement) and the meaning of iconography (counter-culture, return of the figure). Starting from the point that artistic pop economy of art owes its back and forth mouvement between manual and mechanical options to its protagonists’ artistic education, this dissertation opens with the study of drawing’s emergence in a pedagogical context. The study of the relations between drawing and mass culture wouldn’t be fully led without assessing the answer of the artists who involve in the claim for a bigger audience (with a class strategy, an iconography full of mass products and the possibilities of prints). Moreover, not only the graphic works stem from the hand, but pop drawing overwhelms the solely issue of creation processes to exist in an autonomous corpus of works, which doesn’t fall into the finalist schema. This presence points how critical may be the body, through drawing, as an image and as an action. Similary to Claes Oldenburg and David Hockney who oppose a manual tension to the social mechanized expressions – and there lay the double sense of the very notion of involvement which is to be understood in Pop art in the same time on a physical and a political level – the reinvolvement of the body by way of portrait or nude shows its solidarity with the fights in the wake of the sixties, fight for sexual liberation, or women rights

Full textThe construction of a global translation market is not just an economic fact, but also a symbolic act. In order to understand this, we have investigated the genesis and the institutionalisation of "translation" as a category worth of a legitimate public intervention. Firstly, based on archival evidence, the thesis maps the social space of problematisation of "the book" and of its modes of international circulation, by looking at how French publishers, diplomats, bureaucrats and experts get involved in this process. Secondly, based on 103 in depth semi-directive interviews, it then investigates the institutional construction of a local space of proximity, between Paris and London, between two publishing markets and between two conflicting ethos, whilst highlighting "street-level bureaucrats"work practices.Finally, the thesis explores the possibility of a European translation market as a symbolic construction
Kandji, Mamadou. "Roman anglais et traditions populaires de Walter Scott à Thomas Hardy." Rouen, 1988. http://www.theses.fr/1988ROUEL047.
Full textAgarian popular culture is an important component of the nineteenth-century english novel. This thesis is an attempt to map out the manifestations of customs, beliefs and popular superstitions, in the english novel, from Walter Scott to Thomas Hardy. The first chapter of this dessertation deals with the cultural heritage. Next, follow the chapters on Scott, Emily, Charlotte Brontë, George Eliot and finally, Hardy who availed themselves of the popular culture they had known and observed, in order to give substance and depth to their fiction. Scott taps the customs, beliefs, of the scottish highlands aiming, in so doing, at the rivival of ancient popular culture. Whereas the Brontë sisters approach it differently. Charlotte is more sensitive to fantasay, fantasmagoria and mental issues ; Emily deals with the supernatural germane to the ballad tradition (fairies, ghost-lores, witchcraft and demonology). The second part of the dissertation reviews George Eliot and Hardy as regional novelists who explore the folklore and local customs of their respective midlands and dorsetshire. In george eliot's treatment, satire and irony take the lead over romanticism. In Hardy’s works one can observe the richness and depth of dorsetshire folklore : popular feasts, fair-grounds, superstitions, and sundry customs and beliefs are handled vividly. As a conclusion, the thesis states that the rise of the english novel is closely related to the genesis of folklore scholarship and popular culture
