Abstract:

This paper studies the use of violations of conversation principles in the written dialogue of Tyrion Lannister in Game of Thrones. The aim is to establish if and how these violations aid in making him seem clever. The character's dialogues are matched against three theoretical principles: Politeness Theory, The Cooperative Principle and Turn-taking Principles. The findings suggest that by breaking basic principles of conversation, Tyrion provides entertaining dialogue and manages to create unexpected solutions to different threatening situations. Results show an even distribution of strategic

Abstract:

Constantin Stanislavski developed a method for actors in bringing to life characters for the stage. Even though Stanislavski developed his theories in response to the stage climate of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, many of his ideas remain relevant today. In this study, parts of his system were applied to the roles performed in Moisés Kaufman's The Laramie Project. Those roles were Moisés Kaufman, Jonas Slonaker, Doug Laws, Anonymous, Detective Rob Debree, Governor Jim Geringer, Reverend Fred Phelps and Dennis Shepard. The purpose of this exploration was to cr

Abstract:

The interpretation and performance of literature is a theatre art in which literary texts are transformed into staged productions. Novelists, poets, playwrights, and essayists use the symbols of written language to create an imagined world for their readers; interpretative performers present their audiences with this world through symbols of both speech and movement. Hence the interpretation and performance of literature incorporates a wide range of literary and performance theory. Unfortunately, little is known about how literary texts can be communicated through symbolic movement. The purpos

In this thesis, we build upon such an information-theoretic perspective and add some biologically motivated assumptions. They introduce various constraints on the capture, the processin

Abstract:

This dissertation is concerned with variational problems whose field variables are functions on a product manifold M x G of two manifolds M and G. These field variables transform as type (0,1) tensor fields on M and are denoted by ψ(h)ᵅ (h = 1, ..., n = dim M, α = 1, ..., r = dim G). The dependence of ψ(h)ᵅ on the coordinates of G is given by a generalized gauge transformation that depends on a local map h:M → G. The requirement that a Lagrangian that is defined in terms of these field variables be independent of the coordinates of G and the choice of the map h endows G with a local Lie group

Les thérapeutiques individualisées et ciblées se développent actuellement, les formes galéniques évoluent donc en parallèle pour contrôler la libération des principes actifs (PA) et les conduire au plus proche des sites d’intérêts. Les formes orales solides représentent les formulations galéniques les plus utilisées, faciles d’emploi, indolores et réduisant le risque d’infection. Lors de leur conception, il est aussi possible de moduler la libération du PA.Deux approches sont étudiées dans ce manuscrit, l’une correspond au ciblage de la libération d’un PA vers son site d’action thérapeutique q

Abstract:

L'administration de principes actifs de manière locale et externe permet de contrôler leur biodisponibilité et de prolonger leur action thérapeutique sur le site à traiter. Cependant, la délivrance au sein des couches profondes de la peau est un challenge pour la recherche dermatologique car ce tissu représente une barrière difficilement franchissable. Il permet ainsi de protéger l'organisme mais c'est un frein pour l'administration de médicaments par voie cutanée. De nombreux systèmes ont été imaginés afin d'améliorer le passage d'actifs à travers la peau : promoteurs chimiques de pénétration

Abstract:

Gousiekte (“quick” disease) is a plant-induced cardiomyopathy of livestock in South Africa, that is characterized by the sudden death of animals within a period of 3-6 weeks after the initial ingestion of toxic plant material. Six species of three genera of the Rubiaceae family viz. Pachystigma pygmaeum, P. thamnus, and P. latifolium; Pavetta harborii and P. schuman-niana, and Fadogia homblei have been identified as the causative agents of the disease. The toxin responsible for the poisoning, named pavettamine, has been isolated and the structure and absolute configuration established as (2S,4

Abstract:

Le développement des nanotechnologies dans le domaine médical a suscité un engouement considérable ces dernières années, notamment l’utilisation de nanoparticules pour la vectorisation de principes actifs. Les nanoparticules offrent des perspectives uniques pour la vectorisation et la délivrance de principes actifs qu’ils soient des gènes (thérapie génique),des anti-cancéreux (chimiothérapie) ou encore des agents photosensibilisateurs (photothérapie dynamique, TPD). Le défi majeur reste cependant l’acheminement des molécules thérapeutiques jusqu’à leur site d’action, tout en gardant leur intég

Abstract:

Abstract: Large amounts of research have been performed regarding goal-setting and leadership and its effect on organizational performance. However, in school settings, the amount of performed research about leadership performance in relation to goal-setting is limited. The aim of the study was, therefore, to analyze specificity of locally-created goals and the principal’s performance-affecting behaviors during meetings, especially in relation to set goals. Based on Komaki’s research on managerial behavior structured observation was used to analyze the principal’s actions while leading meeting

Abstract:

The present thesis is devoted to the study of path probability of random motion on the basis of an extension of Hamiltonian/Lagrangian mechanics to stochastic dynamics. The path probability is first investigated by numerical simulation for Gaussian stochastic motion of non dissipative systems. This ideal dynamical model implies that, apart from the Gaussian random forces, the system is only subject to conservative forces. This model can be applied to underdamped real random motion in the presence of friction force when the dissipated energy is negligible with respect to the variation of the po
