Abstract:

Contributing to scholarship that explores human suffering within mediated culture has provided the impetus for this PhD thesis. I propose that suffering in mediated modernity be considered in social, cultural, and theological terms; and specifically in the context of privation, a term applied by Saint Augustine to the integrated problems of suffering and evil. Privation, to Augustine, meant negation: a vacuum of human existence understood as the absence of positive, sustaining life forces. I attempt to update this concept by arguing that a modern definition of privation can be conceived of as

Abstract:

In this thesis, I explore the practices of English-speaking readers of shônen manga (Japanese comics written primarily for an audience of teenage boys). I concentrate on three series in particular: Hiromu Arakawa’s Fullmetal Alchemist (2001–2010), Tite Kubo’s Bleach (2001–ongoing), and Masashi Kishimoto’s Naruto (1999–ongoing). I argue that, although it may appear to be inherently imbued with (authorial) meaning, the shônen manga text emerges from a curious ‘alchemy’ through which the practices of readers transform the ‘raw’ materials provided by manga creators to produce a text that appears

Abstract:

This thesis is a study of the cultural history of children’s reading. It is argued that it is important to apply a wider historical perspective to the contemporary debate on the rapid changes in children’s and young people’s reading habits, and that existing historical research rarely deals with reading as a practice, but rather with its institutional and textual conditions such as the school, the library system and children’s literature. The thesis thus aims to explore the practice of reading and its relations to historical circumstances.Through a close reading of 30 retrospective interviews

The popularisation of Latin American dance genres in societies outside of Latin America has long contributed to evolving and appropriated styles. This research looks at such a case: the ‘Samba Showgirl’, the cross-cultural dance practice of Brazilian ‘samba no pé’ in an Australian environment. This hybrid is the result of bringing, what is at its origin, an Afro-Brazilian dance practice into the bodies of jazz and ballet trained commercial dancers. Beyond the hybridisation of samba in Australia, the way in which practitioners engage with this imported dance form is examined. Here we see how id

This essay examines how witches are portrayed in American produced TV-series in the year 2000 and forward, what elements could have effected that portrayal in the series and also how this portrayal differs itself from witches within Wicca. The material used for this examination are the TV-series Charmed, The Vampire Diaries and Witches of East End and as comparing literature; Living Wicca, The Spiral Dance and Witchcraft Today. The methods used for this process are discourse analysis and content analysis. I used theories of Pierre Wiktorin about religion and popular culture. I used three theme

Abstract:

Business management is characterised by fast and ever–expanding development. Culture and generation play an increasingly important role in the management of businesses worldwide. Although studies have been conducted on the subjects of culture and generation, little attention has been paid to culture and generation as a combination of diversity characteristics. As more managers are realising the challenges that arise when managing diverse work environments, the modern manager must question old assumptions about how diverse people work together. In this modern age, it is important to understand

Abstract:

Feminist theory and research has made a distinction between heterosexuality as a practice and heterosexuality as an institution and the line between the two is an area of confusion and contradiction. Discussions have been hampered by an unnecessary binary that hinders and limits theorising, working to silence the debates from either side, produce unnecessary divisions within feminism and inhibit the development of links between theory and practice. In examining heterosexuality as either an institution or a practice, it has been constructed as dangerous or pleasurable, victimising or agentic, o

Abstract:

Recently foreign and Lithuanian scientists have increased consideration on issues of religion and religiosity. It is admitted the importance to take care of the fact that society under influence of globalization would not lose elements of national and traditional culture and religion would remain significant in public life, especially of young people, and would be influent in social, political and cultural spheres of both traditional and modern society (Ratzinger, Balthasar, Rahner, 2008; Libiszowska-Žoltkowska, 2007; Kreeft, 2011; Ricouer, 2001; Girnius, 2011; Kuzmickas, 2003; Jovaiša, 2009;

Abstract:

As they are employed in local government-owned, managed and funded institutions, local authority museum professionals experience their working lives within an organisational framework that is based on high levels of politics and administration (Lawley, 2003). Inherent to this governance model are pressures, constraints and structuring forces that affect the agency and practices of local authority museum professionals, and the makeup of their institutions. However, the literature does not sufficiently attend to the experiences of local authority museum professionals, in terms of their working l

Abstract:

My research broadly has two strands. The first has contributed to work on young children’s use of representational practices, showing how children’s drawing activities are grounded in intention and meaning-making in social contexts. In drawing attention to what children do and how they actively use visual representation it added new insights to theoretical work on learning in a socio-cultural framework where learning is understood as participation in social practices; as joint activity, mediated by other people and cultural activities and artefacts. The second strand was based in these underst

Abstract:

This practice-based research sets out to investigate and intervene in the tense relationship between the production of socially and politically relevant design work and the socio-economic precariousness many designers experience. Starting from an engagement with the precarious working conditions of designers, their genealogy over the last 30+ years and the role precarisation plays in forming docile creative subjects, the research moves on to a wider critique of the political economy and its precarising value practices. Based on this analysis, it then considers the strategic possibilities of mo

Abstract:

Esta dissertação propõe uma reflexão crítica sobre a prática profissional do arquiteto voltada às questões da habitação popular, especialmente a habitação em favelas urbanizadas. Partimos de uma revisão histórica do lugar do arquiteto frente às condicionantes de precarização da moradia urbana, trilhando um percurso bibliográfico e analítico que se inicia nos anos 1930 e chega aos dias atuais: procuramos discutir, num contexto ampliado, as especificidades do envolvimento de arquitetos com o universo da cultura popular e das favelas, o que nos permite situar e entender historicamente a inserção
