Abstract:

This study explores perceptions of Chinese texts by Western audiences while looking into the interrelation between film and literature. This is done by two means: firstly, through a detailed discussion of film adaptations with the focus on Chinese cinema, and secondly, through a practical demonstration of a filmic style in prose fiction in the form of an original book-length piece of fiction. Using Bakhtin’s ‘dialogism’ as the point of departure, the research on adaptations adopts an intertextual approach of adaptation theory as developed by Robert Stam, looking into the intertextual relations

Abstract:

The discourses of ‘Western democracy’ and ‘Oriental despotism’ provide for us a lens through which to view both contemporary political developments and the ideological and historical context in which they occur. Illuminating this optic is a particular vision of the past in which the West imagines itself to have an exclusive claim to democracy, to be the legitimate legatee of this advanced form of governance and burdened with the responsibility of spreading this doctrine amongst the uncivilised ‘lesser breeds’. Paradoxically, the political history of the East is viewed as a dark and brutal wast

Abstract:

Belly dance is popularly practised in the West, and every year, thousands of enthusiasts and professionals from around the world travel to attend belly dance festivals in Egypt, which is considered the cultural centre of the dance. This bachelor’s thesis examines the discourses produced by Western or ʽwhiteʼ belly dancers from Sweden and Finland, on the topics of tourism in Egypt and belly dance festivals in Egypt. The texts are analysed using James Paul Gee's discourse analytical framework, combined with postcolonial theory, complemented with an intersectional approach. From the postcolonial

Abstract:

This thesis is premised on the fundamental notion of religious translation as a process of interpretation and adaptation that arises out of a complex iinguistic and cultural interplay. Its aim is to examine the types of interpretative problems one encounters as a society deeply rooted in Biblical and Christian practices struggles to integrate the rituals and formulae of Buddhism. As part of a cultural system, the translation of a religion cannot be explored in a vacuum, but needs to be viewed in the mutual interdependence with other elements of such system.

Dans la dernière dizaine années du 19ème siècle, les créations de Lugné-Poe et d’Antoine expérimentent de nouvelles esthétiques de représentation et voient dans la mise en scène l’essence de la création théâtrale.

Tout au long du 20ème siècle, cette évolution de la mise en scène, en s’accélérant parfois brutalement, a pu atteindre une certaine anarchie.

The goals here are to identify methods for applying existing software metrics to objects and to provide a basis of analysis for future studies of the measurement and control of software complexity in the object-oriented paradigm of software development

Following Vietnam’s re-unification in 1975, accounting practices and systems throughout the country were similar to those adopted by the Soviet Union and China. Since the late 1980s, however, Vietnam has been in the process of transforming itself from a centrally planned economy to a market-oriented one, as a result of which the business environment has become much more competitive. The orientation of the accounting system has changed from one that served only the needs of state tax authorities to one that could also serve the needs of management.

At present, in Adansi and Daboase, two rural communities in Western Ghana, changes are both internally and externally driven. Combined with ongoing negotiations of authority, landownership, history, tradition and culture, the interconnectedness of these areas shapes the realities of these communities. This thesis investigates these land-related conflicts and authority negotiations from a hermeneutic phenomenological approach. Inspired by action-oriented research, the lives of local residents are investigated and attempted to be understood through their own explanations. Four months of interns

Abstract:

This study examined staff and leadership's attitudes to their work organisation and its environment, and, in particular, the extent to which they preferred a human or task orientation. The study then defined and measured the 'academic culture' of the institution and explored the different effects of emphasising human or task orientations on this academic culture. Finally, the relationship between academic culture and student satisfaction within the institution was explored in the research. The measure of academic culture encompassed 3 domains - planning, the way of doing things, and relationsh

Abstract:

Les espaces urbains paupérisés, perdant leur identité culturelle et sociale, attirent des immigrés et leurs habitants ou usagers qui y ont un sentiment d'appartenance moindre, notamment parce que les projets de développement urbain sont rarement expliqués. Ainsi, il est nécessaire qu'une évaluation des facteurs orientant la perception des publics et de leurs espaces urbains soit établie : l'influence de la culture sur le type d'impression mentale généré par les zones urbaines et les élévations est indéniable dans nos études de cas, Marseille et Le Caire, comme elle l'est sur l'orientation de p

Abstract:

Mental health reflects an array of causal influences that span biological, psychological, and social circumstances, with resultant underlying causal pathways to poor mental health outcomes in childhood that are complex. Key features of this complexity are reciprocal interactions between person and environment that take place over time. The core of this thesis seeks to attend to the complexity of development to move the field of developmental health forward toward greater explanation, and more successful prediction and prevention. The focal point of the thesis is the psychosocial determinants o

Abstract:

At present, there is an emerging need to expedite web application development and to accommodate the constant evolution of web applications due to evolving business dynamics. This can be reflected by an increasing number of contemporary Web Application Frameworks with Object Relational Mapping (ORM) support and Model-Driven Development tools with powerful model to- code generation capabilities. While business objects today can be generated from detailed, concrete UML Class diagrams, there is still a mismatch between these current technologies and the essential support for high-level modelling

Abstract:

<p> This study researched the impact of leadership style on leading organizational change in the local church. The main question studied was whether there was a relationship between transformational and transactional leadership and change-oriented leadership. A second question was whether pastoral leaders rate as more effective in leading change when they follow the transformational, transactional, or change-oriented leadership model. The third question was whether pastors rate as more effective in leading change depending on years of experience or location (district). This quantitative study

Abstract:

Nel presente lavoro è stata condotta un’analisi quali/quantitativa degli elementi strutturali che caratterizzano alcuni affioramenti carbonatici presenti nella zona di catena esterna della Sicilia occidentale (Monte Maranfusa e Montangna Grande), e nella zona di avampaese in Sicilia sud-orientale (Monti Iblei). Le proprietà petrofisiche delle rocce carbonatiche (porosità, permeabilità), sono strettamente legate all’evoluzione diagenetica di quest’ultime e cambiano in funzione della natura, dell’organizzazione e della forma degli elementi che le costituiscono (grani, pori, cemento, minerali,
