Abstract:

Il mito di Prometeo, con la sua ricca e polivalente simbologia, ha accompagnato lo sviluppo della cultura europea. Luciano di Samosata, uno degli esponenti più vivaci della Seconda Sofistica, ne tratta particolarmente in tre opere: Prometheus es in verbis, Prometheus e Dialogi deorum V. Questo studio le analizza, facendone emergere la connessione.

Abstract:

This dissertation explores the role and significance of the ancient Greek myth of Prometheus in Western philosophy from Antiquity to today. Paying particular attention to its moral and existential meanings, an analysis of this in-depth investigation produces an overview of the exceptional array of the myth’s functions and themes. It demonstrates that the most significant functions of the Prometheus myth are its social, epistemic, ontological and moral functions and that the myth’s most significant themes are fire, rebellion, creation, human nature and ambiguity. The dissertation argues that th

In this sequence of three short stories, the author explores the unique human qualities that distinguish men from beasts. Identities never seem to be clear-cut in this futuristic dystopian America in which the remnants of humanity survive in the shadows, hunted down by Frankenstein-collaged creatures know as hybrids. The Forged are born out of advanced genetic and cybernetic experimentation. Their super-human senses and strength allow them to prey upon the tattered remnants of humanity, scavenging the remaining survivors for organic parts to be hewn into new hybrids.

Abstract:

The ritualistic aspect of Walter Pichler's work greatly problematizes the traditional view of the art object as the locus of aesthetic contemplation. Yet how are we to approach such art in our secularized world? For it to maintain its meaningfulness, does not ritual require a shared symbolic system?<br>Indirectly guided by Pichler's work, this thesis is an exploration of the contemporary status of the work of art. An investigation into the myth of Prometheus reveals that art and ritual share the same origin. Further inquiries into early Greek sculpture, as well as the concepts of techne and mi

Abstract:

This thesis is concerned with how the myths of Prometheus came to function within ekphrastic contexts from Latin literature to Renaissance Italian art. Prometheus had many guises: the trickster that stole fire and triggered the end of the Golden Age, the keeper of a secret, the sculptor of man. Previous scholarship has tended to ignore, in particular, Prometheus’ connection to the Golden Age. After drawing fresh attention to the earliest sources in which this connection was explored, I illustrate how a development in writers’ characterisation of the god helped give rise to the idea of Promethe

Abstract:

This thesis seeks to explore the voice leading parsimony, bass motion, and chromatic extensions present in Alexander Scriabin's Prometheus. Voice leading will be explored using Neo-Riemannian type transformations followed by network diagrams to track the mystic chord movement throughout the symphony. Bass motion and chromatic extensions are explored by expanding the current notion of how the luce voices function in outlining and dictating the harmonic motion. Syneathesia will also be examined as a composition device used to create the light, harmony, and drama of Prometheus.

Emphasizing access to power and public resources deviates from traditional definitions of corruption resting on individual wrongdoing and abuse of power.

Rather than applying an outside perspective, e.g. a feminist or Marxist one, to the text, I use Cultural Criticism as described by Arthur Asa Berger in order to deconstruct and reconstruct the discourse, as explained by Michel Foucault, within Shelley’s work.

Abstract:

Background: Acquiring comprehension and observability of software systems is a vital and necessary activity for testing and maintenance; however, these tasks are time-consuming for engineers. Concurrently cloud computing requires microservices to enhance the utilization of cloudnative deployment, which simultaneously introduces a high degree of complexity.

Abstract:

This essay explores the influence of contemporary values in two iterations of the Greek Prometheus myth and argues that the events portrayed in the two texts follow the structure of the myth and that the discourse in the texts shows traces of contemporary moral values. Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein (1818) is used as a starting point, but the focus is on Howard Phillip Lovecraft’s “Herbert West: Reanimator” (1922) as a later iteration of the Prometheus myth.The method for comparison is centred on disassembling the texts in accordance with the instructions found in Mieke Bal’s Narratology: Introdu

Abstract:

Many critics consider nineteenth century British Romanticism one of the most political movements in literary history. A major reason for this claim is that the 19th century is recorded in European history as a watershed of economic, social, and political constructions whose consequences and impact reached continents and populations beyond Europe.For example, the Atlantic slave trade, colonization, and the industrial revolution reached their apogee in the century. One outcome of these developments was the new alignments and relationships Europe entered into with African and Asian peoples. The i

Abstract:

L’obiettivo principale di questo elaborato è di mostrare in un primo momento i concetti fondamentali che stanno alla base del paradigma ad agenti. Una volta introdotti, essi verranno collocati in un determinato ambiente di programmazione attraverso una piattaforma specifica chiamata Jason. Come sarà facile capire dalla lettura di questa trattazione, un sistema ad agenti è costituito dagli agenti stessi e dall’ambiente in cui sono situati. L’ambiente risulta quindi un altro tassello fondamentale ed è stato introdotto allo scopo un nuovo paradigma per la programmazione di ambienti chiamato Age
