Abstract:

This thesis describes a formal model of a subtype of humour, and the implementation of that model in a program that generates jokes of that subtype. Although there is a great deal of literature on humour in general, very little formal work has been done on puns, and none has been implemented. All current linguistic theories of humour are over-general and not falsifiable. Our model, which is specific, formal, implemented and evaluated, makes a significant contribution to the field. Punning riddles are our chosen subtype of verbal humour, for several reasons. They are very common, they exhibit certain regular structures and mechanisms, and they have been studied previously by linguists. Our model is based on our extensive analysis of large numbers of punning riddles, taken from children's joke books. The implementation of the model, JAPE (Joke Analysis and Production Engine), generates punning riddles, from a humour independent lexicon. Pun generation requires much less world knowledge than pun comprehension, making it feasible for implementation. To support our claim that all of JAPE's output is punning riddles, we conducted an evaluatory experiment. We took JAPE texts, human-generated texts, nonsense non-jokes and sensible non-jokes, and asked joke experts to evaluate them. For joke experts, we used 8-11 year old children, since psychological research suggests that this age group enjoys, and can recognize, punning riddles better than other age groups. The results showed that JAPE's output texts are, in fact, recognizably jokes. The evaluation showed that our model adequately describes a significant subtype of verbal humour. We believe that this model can now be expanded to cover puns in general, as well as other types of linguistic humour.

Abstract:

El lenguaje sexual es una constante en la obra de Shakespeare durante un periodo de que abarca casi veinte años- especialmente durante el dirty period- y más de treinta obras. Pero no sólo el lenguaje sexual en Shakespeare también encontramos un gran repertorio de actos, opciones y propuestas sexuales: celibato, sexualidad pasional, incesto, violación, matrimonio, relaciones homoeróticas, amistad masculina, prostitución, etc. Centrándonos en Hamlet, nuestro trabajo pretende evaluar de forma objetiva once puns con connotación sexual identificados en el TO, analizando el grado de fiabilidad en cuatro TT- uno en catalán y tres en castellano-, cuyos traductores son Salvador Oliva (1986, 2003 y 2005), Vicente Molina Foix (1989), Instituto de Shakespeare (1992) y Ángel Luis Pujante (1994). Para establecer la validez de los TT partimos, en primer lugar, de las ediciones críticas y anotadas más recientes: desde John Dover Wilson (1934) hasta Ana Thompson y Neil Taylor (2006) y, en segundo lugar, de la larga tradición lexicográfica de Shakespeare existente: C.T. Onions (1911/1986), E. Partridge (1947/1968), M.M. Mahood (1957/1965), E.A.M. Colman (1974), F. Rubinstein (1984/1989), G. Williams (1994 y 1997), etc. Por una parte, aspiramos a identificar las estrategias utilizadas por traductores en su intento de trasladar el doble sentido subyacente -el general y el especializado- de los puns con el fin de recrear la ambigüedad y el plurisignificado del TO y contribuir a una mejor recepción de la obra universal en nuestro país. Por otra, tratamos de ofrecer un modelo útil de análisis que va de "muy satisfactorio" a "no satisfactorio" según grado de traslación conseguida en el intento de traducir los puns objeto de estudio. En algunos casos se ofrecen soluciones para futuras traducciones.

""Pun Intended" : The Possible Implementation of Puns to Teach Swedish Upper Secondary School Learners about Meanings of Polysemous Words in the L2 English Classroom."

Abstract:

This study aims to investigate to what extent Swedish upper secondary school learners of L2 English understand the meanings of polysemous words and whether puns can be used to teach such words. A test and two questionnaires were constructed to retrieve data from both students and teachers. The results of the study show that Swedish upper secondary school learners of L2 English generally have an acceptable knowledge of polysemous words, but depending on the type of program the students are attending, their understanding differs. Based on these results, it was also concluded that puns can be used in education to teach students about the meanings of polysemous words. The results from the questionnaires display that students in general have a positive attitude towards using puns in the classroom and that they found them entertaining and humorous. In addition, the students also saw this approach as beneficial to their retention and motivation. Lastly, the teachers expressed that using humor can strengthen the learning process, and if the students find the teaching situation enjoyable, they learn faster and it can increase their retention.

Abstract:

In the linguistic study of humor, research has largely been centered around the formulation of models and theories or the dissecting and categorization of jokes. Because of the often difficult-to-categorize aspects of verbal jokes, much time has been spent trying to create taxonomies for humor types and mechanisms. Linguists such as Raskin and Attardo have sought to categorize all verbal humor according to various functional elements (Attardo & Raskin, 1991). Such elements include, but are not limited to, the logical mechanism that drives the humor in the joke or the situation where the joke takes place. These categorizations are helpful in understanding the potential components of a given joke. However, relatively few studies have sought to quantify and qualify the distribution of these components across real-world data. This study seeks to understand the distribution of some of these categorizations laid out by Raskin and Attardo across joke topics, namely pun wordplay and narrative strategy. To do this, an original 100,000 word joke corpus was designed and compiled consisting of four joke topics: Marriage, Politics, Animals, and Food. Through some manual sorting and Python programming, jokes were labeled according to wordplay strategy and narrative structure. A subsequent statistical analysis was carried out to determine whether there exists a pattern of specific joke strategies when dealing with children's humor versus adult humor.

Full text

Abstract:

ABSTRACT: Puns are short humorous texts that play on structural ambiguity in order to create incongruous scripts. The perception of their humour requires considerable pragmatic manipulation, which may present problems for L2 learners, which is why many scholars agree that they are best reserved for more advanced students. Using a combination of Quantitative and Qualitative analysis of data yielded from a survey containing puns and referential jokes, this study confirms that humour through puns is largely inaccessible to Swedish High School learners of English, with ambiguity being the main obstacle across the test groups. However, since language play has been proven to be facilitative to language learning, and since students themselves express a wish to be able to participate in humorous interaction, learners may well benefit from working with puns and language play in the classroom in order to gain greater linguistic abilities and well-rounded communicative competence.

Abstract:

The rapid advances of technology brought forth significant transformations in the world, including at the level of society, changing how people communicate with each other. Computers and mobile devices already have a well-established place in our lives, not only as means of keeping in touch, but also as instruments able to provide something for which humans have always had a craving: entertainment The present dissertation is concerned with probably one of the most popular forms of entertainment available worldwide, namely video games, and with the linguistic processes that contributed to their transformation into the global phenomenon they are today: language translation and localization, with a particular focus on wordplay, one of the most frequently encountered challenges in translation.

Abstract:

This study investigates the use of different strategies for translating puns in Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. The material chosen for this study consist of the two Swedish translations by Nonnen (1870/1984) and Westman (2009). Six puns were selected for the analysis which greatly relies on Delabastita’s (1996) eight strategies for translating puns, and Newmark’s (1988) translation methods. The analysis shows that Westman empathises with the readers of the TT while Nonnen empathises with the ST. This entails that Westman tends to use a more ‘free’ translation and is more inclined to adapt the ST puns to make them more visible for the readership of the TT. The priority for Nonnen, on the other hand, is to remain faithful to the contextual meaning of the ST. Paradoxically, to be faithful to the ST does not necessarily entail that the translator respects the semantic aspects of the ST, but that they adapt the culture of the ST to better fit the cultural and linguistic framework of the TL. Since Westman adapts the ST puns so that they are still recognised by the reader of the TT, her translation appears to be more suitable for the TL readership than Nonnen’s.

Docherty, Thomas Michael. "Consummatum est : the end of the word in Geoffrey Hill's poetry." Thesis, University of Cambridge, 2018. https://www.repository.cam.ac.uk/handle/1810/278962.

Full text

Abstract:

This thesis intends to demonstrate that the idea of the end is a crucial motive of Geoffrey Hill’s poetry. It analyses the verbal and formal means by which Hill attempts to have his poems arrive at ends. The ends are, chiefly, the reconciliation of antagonists in word or thought; and the perfect articulation of the poem. The acknowledgement of failure to achieve such ends provides its own impetus to Hill’s work. The thesis examines in detail Hill’s puns, word-games, rhymes, syntaxes, and genres — their local reconciliations and entrenched contrarieties — and claims for them a significant place in the study of Hill’s poetry, particularly with regard to its sustained concern with ends and endings. Little has been written to date about Hill’s entire poetic corpus as represented in Broken Hierarchies (2013), due to the recentness of the work. This thesis draws from the earliest to the latest of Hill’s poetic writings; and makes extensive use of archival material. It steps beyond the ‘historical drama’ of language depicted in Matthew Sperling’s Visionary Philology (2014) and Alex Pestell’s Geoffrey Hill: The Drama of Reason (2016) and asserts that the drama in Hill’s poetry, seeking to transcend history, is constantly related to its end: not only its termination in time but its consummating purpose.

Abstract:

Language play has an important position in the use of language. Cook (in Lucas, 2005) makes the argument that language play is even one of the primary uses of language. Partly due to the focus on research in second language learning, advanced L2 users’ language processing gets little attention in research on language use (Shaw & McMillion, 2008). Therefore, there is limited knowledge regarding the reading processes of this group. While Shaw and McMillion (2008) show that there is no difference in language proficiency between L1 and advanced L2 readers, Paradis (2009) argues that there indeed is a difference in processing among L1 and advanced L2 speakers. Gernsbacher and Robertson (1995) examined the differences in processing between more and less skilled L1 readers using ambiguous words and puns. However, this kind of research has not been done for L1 and advanced L2 readers. A study concerning the speed and ability in pun recognition was carried out to investigate whether any differences could be found between L1 and advanced L2 readers, with the same language proficiency. Tests in accuracy and speed in recognizing puns were carried out with university students in Stockholm and Los Angeles, while a survey investigating degree of amusement was distributed online. Initial hypotheses assumed that L1 readers, compared to L2 readers, would be both more skilled and faster at identifying a number of categories of puns as well as perceiving all categories of puns as being more amusing. Results show support for some of these hypotheses: L1 speakers were faster and more accurate in finding certain categories of puns. However, other categories showed no difference, and results were not able to prove differences in degree of amusement between the two groups. Questions about other categorizations of puns are raised, as well as further research opportunities.

Resumo: A emergência do punk no Brasil se deu em finais da ditadura militar tornando, para esse grupo de jovens, fundamentais os acontecimentos referentes à redemocratização, a Assembleia Constituinte e as eleições diretas. Não obstante, a nova democracia deu espaço a organizações políticas das mais diversas, as quais passaram a fazer parte do cotidiano dos brasileiros. Tais acontecimentos foram indispensáveis aos fanzines, que se empenharam em debatê-los e que, por vezes, buscaram neles inspiração para sua forma material e discursiva. Dessa maneira, os fanzines punks manifestam a bricolagem, inerente à estética punk, como eixo de suas práticas de leitura e práticas discursivas. Através de colagens de excertos de outros impressos, os fanzines subvertiam os sentidos iniciais dos recortes que empregavam inserindo-os nesses suportes de leitura de aparência confusa, que obrigam o leitor a divagar seus olhos pelas páginas. Não por acaso, eles fizeram parte da forma discursiva igualmente confusa e entrecortada, de difícil compreensão ao público externo ao punk, que se empenhou em restringir a violência interna do grupo e a representá-lo como um agente engajado na transformação do país e do mundo. Trata-se do discurso aqui denominado união e conscientização.
Abstract: The development of punk in Brazil happened by the end of the military dictatorship. It made essential, to this group of young people, the events concerning the redemocratization of the Constituent Assembly and the direct elections. However, this new democracy gave room to many different political organizations that became part of the Brazilian daily life. Such events were essential to fanzines, that made efforts to discuss them and, sometimes, looked into them for inspiration to their material and discursive form. Thus, punk fanzines manifest the concept of bricolage, inherent of the punk esthetics, as the axis of its discursive and reading practices. Through the collage of excerpts of other prints, fanzines subverted the original meanings of the cutouts they used, inserting them in reading supports of confuse appearance, making the reader divagate along the pages. Not coincidentally, they were part of a discursive form that sounded confuse and truncated, hard to understand for the public outside the punk subculture. This discourse made efforts in restricting the internal violence of the group and represent it as an agent committed to transforming the country and the world. Such discourse was named union and awareness.

The Punk Movement emerged in the mid-1970s as one of the last anti-establishment movements. It started mainly as a musical phenomenon, the punk rock, anti-conformist protest adopted by part of the young American intellectuals and then by the British. In the beggining it was against the commercialism that rock music had submitted to, afterwards it expanded to a social, cultural and artistic movement of anti-establishment youthful challenge. It grew and radicalized within the working class, mainly in Britain, afterwards it spread across all over the world seen by authorities as a subversive culture movement. In Brazil it started in many metropolitan regions of São Paulo in which the most expressivity was observed in the center region emphasized by the media factor, and in the industrial part of ABC region where it obtained more expressive and radical ways where the movement was involved with the working and union fights accurred in the late 1970s and beggining of 1980s

Cresceu e se radicalizou junto à classe operária, principalmente a inglesa, depois se proliferou para o mundo todo, visto pelas autoridades como um movimento de cultura subversiva . No Brasil o movimento radicou-se nas diversas regiões metropolitanas de São Paulo, tendo maior expressividade no centro da capital enfatizado pelo fator midiático e na região industrial do ABC, onde obteve formas mais expressivas e radicais, estando envolvido com as lutas operárias e sindicais ocorridas no final da década de 70 e início dos anos de 1980.

Abstract:

Longtemps soupçonné d’hérésie, ’Abū al-‘Alā’ al-Ma‘arrī, auteur du nord de la Syrie ayant vécu à cheval entre le IVe/Xe et le Ve/XIe siècles, fut disculpé à la fin du XIXe siècle par les précurseurs de la Nahd{a. Féru de la langue arabe, muni d’un style inaccessible au premier abord, la question qui se pose aujourd’hui est celle de savoir s’il faut se fier à ses contemporains ou à l’opinion d’hommes qui vécurent plusieurs siècles plus tard. Le présent travail a pour but de tenter de comprendre le langage de cet auteur et d’essayer de savoir pour quelles raisons un homme brillant par son intelligence et ses connaissances se borna à rédiger ce qui ressemble à une fable animalière anodine.Une analyse détaillée du texte révèle un ensemble de jeux de mots, d’allusions historiques, d’anecdotes et de citations coraniques qui tissent un deuxième texte en filigrane à travers l’épître, lequel s’avère être, d’une part, une critique véhémente contre toute religion, l’islam et son représentant le prophète Muh{ammad en particulier et, d’autre part, des conseils adressés au prince ‘Azīz al-Dawla, gouverneur indépendantiste d’Alep sous le règne des Fatimides, l’encourageant à prendre les armes et à propager les idées du maître. La véritable croyance de l’auteur reste cependant peu définie en dehors d’un refus de tout système religieux, désigné comme étant des mécanismes mis en place pour duper les gens simples d’esprit, et d’une foi inébranlable que la mort n’est autre qu’un sommeil sans suite.La technique d’écriture d’al-Ma‘arrī semble être un savant mélange de la technique bédouine de la tawriya dont l’usage primitif était d’échapper à la censure ou à la persécution et une inspiration de l’ouvrage pehlevi Kalīla wa-Dimna, un miroir des princes par excellence
’Abū al-‘Alā’ al-Ma‘arrī who lived in the North of Syria between the 4th and the 5th century was suspected of heresy for a long time, and was finally cleared by the Nahd{a pioneers at the end of the 19th century. Extremely keen on the Arabic language and provided with an intricate style of writing, the question today is whether to believe his contemporaries or the opinion of men who lived centuries later. The present study tries to understand the author’s language and why such a brillant cultivated man wrote what looks like a trivial animal fable.A detailed analysis of the text reveals a succession of puns, hints to historical events, anecdotes and coranic quotes which grow into a second text interwoven throughout the « Epistle of a Horse and a Mule ». This latter appears to be, on the one hand, a vehement criticism towards religion, islam and Muh{ammad its prophet, and, on the other hand, advice given to Aleppo’s governor, ‘Azīz al-Dawla, who though allegied to the Fatimids, has a tendency toward independence, encouraging him to take arms and propagate the masters ideas. Nevertheless, the real faith of the author remains undetermined except for his refusal of all religious system viewed by him as mechanisms set to fool simple souls, and his belief that death is nothing but an endless sleep.Al-Ma‘arrī’s writing technique appears to be a refined combination of the bedouin’s technique tawriya which originally served as a means to escape censureship or even repression, and inspired by the pehlevi work of Kalila wa-Dimna, princes advice if ever there was

This essay is the result of the analysis of history fragments and Punk culture, as well as some artistic productions by the members of this movement, as zines and musics utilized by the Punks to defend their ideals and to establish its position before a hegemonic culture imposed on then. The productions analysed are the main sources of data for the fulfillment of this research, because the sources selected allow for an analysis considering the proximity between the Punk culture and the Underground scene from some similarities found during the research, as the influence of the Counterculture and the fight before the imposed standards. With the intention to elaborate a bibliographic review, considering the possible relations between the Punk movement and the Underground, being these elements present in most urban centers, this research is directed to two cities from São Paulo inland, Atibaia and Bragança Paulista, each one with its own culture and behavior. In this essay other movements besides the Punk are cited merely as comparative elements, because the Punk movement, its Underground component allies and all it's set of practices and actions, provide the minimally necessary data for the analysis of the proximity between the Punk culture and the Underground.

Com o intuito de elaborar uma revisão bibliográfica, considerando as possíveis relações entre o movimento Punk e o Underground, sendo esses elementos presentes em boa parte dos centros urbanos, direcionamos a pesquisa para duas cidades do interior de São Paulo, Atibaia e Bragança Paulista, cada uma com sua cultura e costumes. Nesta dissertação outros movimentos além do Punk, são utilizados meramente como elementos comparativos, pois o movimento Punk, aliado dos componentes do Underground, e todo seu conjunto de práticas e ações, fornecem os dados minimamente necessários para a análise da aproximação entre a cultura Punk e o Underground.

Loison-Charles, Julie. "Les mots étrangers de Vladimir Nabokov." Thesis, Paris 10, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014PA100051/document.

Full text

Abstract:

Cette thèse démontre le caractère fondamental du multilinguisme de Nabokov dans son écriture en anglais : après avoir été un auteur prolifique en russe, l’écrivain a opéré une transition linguistique et n’a plus composé ses romans qu’en langue anglaise. Cette dernière ne peut nullement être réduite à une langue seconde puisque Nabokov a su l’écrire avant le russe et la parlait depuis l’enfance. Il a par ailleurs bénéficié d’une éducation polyglotte puisqu’il maîtrisait parfaitement le français. Cette thèse étudie le style de Nabokov en soulignant sa créativité linguistique et en examinant le rôle fondateur que la traduction a joué dans le positionnement de ses différentes langues les unes par rapport aux autres. L’identité bilingue de Nabokov a pour conséquence que son écriture est déviante, mais aussi défiante : elle est marquée d’étrangeté (le caractère de ce qui est étrange) et d’étrangéité (ce qui est étranger). Dans ses romans, la langue anglaise voit surgir en son sein des mots étrangers qui, typographiquement et sémantiquement, déstabilisent la lecture : le phénomène de l’alternance codique (ou code-switching) est au cœur de cette thèse et interroge le rapport entre l’auteur tyrannique (Couturier) et son lecteur. La langue anglaise elle-même perd de sa familiarité et devient étrangère : le bilinguisme de Nabokov lui confère un statut d’étranger dans la langue, ce qui lui permet de voir la violence du langage (Lecercle) et de la faire apparaître, notamment grâce à des calembours et des néologismes. Nabokov est ce que Deleuze appelle un grand écrivain à l’aide d’une formule proustienne : ses livres « sont écrits dans une sorte de langue étrangère »
This thesis shows how central Nabokov’s multilingualism was to his prose in English: after authoring several works in Russian, the writer changed languages and then only wrote his novels in English. It was not merely a second language for him because Nabokov could write English before Russian and he had spoken it since childhood. Besides, he enjoyed a polyglot education and was fluent in French. This thesis studies Nabokov’s style in English by focusing on his linguistic creativity and by examining the founding role that translation played in how his several tongues were going to position themselves in relation to one another. Nabokov’s bilingual identity means that his writing both challenges and deviates from the norm: it is dappled with strangeness and foreignness. In his novels, foreign words irrupt in the midst of the English prose and, typographically and semantically, they destabilize the reading experience: code-switching is at the heart of this thesis and questions the relation between “the narrator’s tyranny” (Couturier) and his reader. English itself loses its familiarity and becomes a foreign language: Nabokov’s bilingualism means he is like a foreigner in this tongue; therefore he reveals the violence of language (Lecercle) and puts it into play through puns and neologisms. Nabokov is what Deleuze calls, thanks to a Proustian expression, a great writer: his books “are written in a kind of foreign language”

A emergência do punk no Brasil se deu em finais da ditadura militar tornando, para esse grupo de jovens, fundamentais os acontecimentos referentes à redemocratização, a Assembleia Constituinte e as eleições diretas. Não obstante, a nova democracia deu espaço a organizações políticas das mais diversas, as quais passaram a fazer parte do cotidiano dos brasileiros. Tais acontecimentos foram indispensáveis aos fanzines, que se empenharam em debatê-los e que, por vezes, buscaram neles inspiração para sua forma material e discursiva. Dessa maneira, os fanzines punks manifestam a bricolagem, inerente à estética punk, como eixo de suas práticas de leitura e práticas discursivas. Através de colagens de excertos de outros impressos, os fanzines subvertiam os sentidos iniciais dos recortes que empregavam inserindo-os nesses suportes de leitura de aparência confusa, que obrigam o leitor a divagar seus olhos pelas páginas. Não por acaso, eles fizeram parte da forma discursiva igualmente confusa e entrecortada, de difícil compreensão ao público externo ao punk, que se empenhou em restringir a violência interna do grupo e a representá-lo como um agente engajado na transformação do país e do mundo. Trata-se do discurso aqui denominado união e conscientização.
The development of punk in Brazil happened by the end of the military dictatorship. It made essential, to this group of young people, the events concerning the redemocratization of the Constituent Assembly and the direct elections. However, this new democracy gave room to many different political organizations that became part of the Brazilian daily life. Such events were essential to fanzines, that made efforts to discuss them and, sometimes, looked into them for inspiration to their material and discursive form. Thus, punk fanzines manifest the concept of bricolage, inherent of the punk esthetics, as the axis of its discursive and reading practices. Through the collage of excerpts of other prints, fanzines subverted the original meanings of the cutouts they used, inserting them in reading supports of confuse appearance, making the reader divagate along the pages. Not coincidentally, they were part of a discursive form that sounded confuse and truncated, hard to understand for the public outside the punk subculture. This discourse made efforts in restricting the internal violence of the group and represent it as an agent committed to transforming the country and the world. Such discourse was named union and awareness.

Abstract:

Language-play can briefly be described as the wilful manipulation of the peculiarities of a linguistic system in a way that draws attention to these peculiarities themselves, thereby causing a communicative and cognitive effect that goes beyond the conveyance of propositional meaning. Among the various phenomena answering this description are the different kinds of puns, but also more strictly form-based manipulations such as rhymes and alliteration, in addition to a host of other, sometimes even fuzzier, subcategories.

Due to its unusual nature, and especially its frequently strong dependence on the idiosyncrasies of a particular language, language-play can generally be assumed to constitute a significant challenge in a translation context. Furthermore, given its non-negligible effects, the translator is not free to simply ignore the language-play (provided it has been recognized as such in the first place) without having taken an active stance on its treatment. However, the difficulties in finding a suitable target-language solution are possibly exacerbated if the source text is a complex multimedia product such as a film, the translation of which, normally in the form of dubbing or subtitling, is subject to additional constraints.

In view of these intricacies, it has been the aim of this study to analyze and measure how language-play in film has actually been treated in authentic dubbing and subtitle versions. As a prerequisite, the concept of language-play has been elaborated on, and more than a dozen subcategories have been described, developed, and employed. For the purpose of carrying out a meaningful analysis of the dubbing and subtitling of language-play, a corpus has been compiled, comprising 18 family films and 99 of their various target versions, most on DVD, and yielding nearly 800 source-text instances of language-play and thousands of translation solutions.

The results indicate that especially two sets of factors, among the many that are likely to influence a translation, play a prominent role: the type of the language-play, and the identity and working conditions of the translator. By contrast, the mode of translation (dubbing vs. subtitling), the target language, or the general properties of the films, could not be shown to have a sizeable impact.

The Social Sciences dedicate attention on studying the youth as a new bias on the construction of identities (Hall, 1999) in different formats and as a continuous process that occurs at a daily manner. The present work tends to understand and punctuate specific points on the modification of musical genders on a historical and bibliographic way, with a profound study of the new musicality and its insertion on the youth universe. The first musical chords of the American black music were considered, such as its influences, at a first moment identifying the artists that dedicated their work to this new musical possibility and at a second moment, to the new visual possibilities that were presented during the route of this change. The present work takes on a photographic bias to identify and punctuate the different musical style modifications, following, at a first glance, the changes at the North American scenario and secondly, on the English ground. On this second moment, this dissertation points out the changes occurred on musical aspects and through the analyses of images and photography of the 60´s, showing later that at a punctual way these changes occurred simultaneously at the USA and England, culminating on the consolidation of a new musical and visual style, which was called the Punk Culture. Considering the music and photography as a basis for a permanent dialogue, an ethnographic research was conducted at the city of Ribeirão Preto, considering the musical scenario at the 90´s and the actuation of the present researcher on the punk music movement of the city. This work of investigation and identification also traces a comparison with the present day and identifies a visual and musical scenario with the influence of the punk movement on the city at the present day (2007)
As Ciências Sociais dedicam-se cada dia mais com o estudo da juventude como um novo viés para a construção de identidades (HALL, 1999). Essas identificações têm vários formatos e acontecem de maneira cotidiana das maneiras mais distintas. Esse trabalho visa, através de um mapeamento histórico e bibliográfico, entender e pontuar alguns pontos específicos de mudanças de gêneros musicais. Para tanto, se valeu de um estudo profundo de novas musicalidades e sua profunda inserção no universo juvenil. Partindo do levantamento dos primeiros acordes musicais, que fizeram da música negra americana, no início do século vinte, o começo para o grande destaque que o rock têm nos dias atuais, incluindo suas maneiras e influências, chegou-se ao punk moderno, representante direto da rebeldia juvenil. Num primeiro momento, a dissertação preocupo-se em identificar os artistas que se dedicavam a essa nova possibilidade sonora; posteriormente, verificou-se as novas possibilidades visuais que se apresentam na trajetória dessa mudança. O trabalho aproveita de um viés fotográfico para identificar e pontuar as mudanças de fase, percorrendo das mudanças sociais em solo norte-americano, para o surgimento de um novo modo de fazer música em terras Inglesas. Neste segundo momento, essa dissertação aponta as mudanças ocorridas nos aspectos musicais, colocados através das músicas e de análises fotográficas na década de 1960, já simultaneamente nos Estados Unidos e Inglaterra para, depois, de maneira pontual, identificar e pontuar a consolidação de uma cena musical comum e emergente nos dois países. É o que veio a consolidar-se como estética Punk, contemplando música e visual. Tendo o trabalho todo como base a música e a fotografia, criando com isso um diálogo permanente, foi realizada uma pesquisa etnográfica na cidade de Ribeirão Preto, tendo como base os anos 1990 e a atuação do pesquisador no movimento Punk da cidade. O trabalho de investigação e identificação traça uma comparação com os dias atuais, identificando também uma cena visual e musical com influências da música e do visual Punk na cidade nos dias atuais (2007) encerrando, com isso, a análise desse trabalho

Com um papel e tinta todo um mundo é representado. A proposta desta dissertação é a de refletir como as Histórias em Quadrinhos podem ser utilizadas para compreender os contextos históricos em que estão inseridas, e como os quadrinhos representam os conteúdos de seu tempo. As reflexões realizadas intentaram compreender como foram realizadas as representações do Punk durante a segunda metade da década de 1980 e início da década de 1990. Como estudo de caso foram utilizadas as revistas ¿Chiclete com Banana¿ que circularam no mercado de quadrinhos brasileiro entre 1985 e 1991. Procurei realizar uma conexão entre as HQs da revista e os espaços de cartas aos leitores e como esses dois espaços representavam as ¿comunidades de sentido¿. Foi realizada uma ponderação sobre o conceito ¿comunidades de sentido¿ em detrimento do termo ¿Tribo Urbana¿, pois ainda que ¿Tribo¿ esteja consolidado, acredito que ¿comunidade¿ acaba sendo mais pertinente a esta pesquisa. Foram realizadas análises das Histórias em Quadrinhos da ¿Chiclete¿, e de sua diagramação, que permitiram traçar uma panorama da idéia de confecção da publicação quanto underground. Por fim, analisando um conjunto de histórias do personagem ¿Bob Cuspe¿ foi traçado sua relação, e afetividade, com os ¿leitores¿ pertencentes as comunidades de sentido.

Abstract:

This thesis investigates the everyday experiences of subcultural participants. It takes as its focus the Dutch punk scene, tracing its emergences and development and mapping it historically and spatially. It explores the meanings attached to punk by its participants past and present. If further situates punk as part of participants’ wider lives, in particular in their mobility, connectivity, political engagements and life choices. This thesis speaks to several areas of enquiry. It most prominently contributes to subcultural debates, as well as the emerging field of ‘punk studies’. However the research presented here also has implications for discussions of globalisation, particularly in terms of cultural flow and the effect on local scene ‘boundaries’. It further contributes to conceptual developments of political activity in a world with ever more emphasis on individualised choice. This is an ethnographic project. The arguments presented in this thesis are the result of fieldwork undertaken between July 2010 and April 2011. Data include semi-structured interviews with thirty-three participants of the Dutch punk scene, both past and present. Interview data is further contextualised with a fieldwork diary based on participant observation. As a result of this research, this thesis argues for an approach to social research that recognises the ‘messiness’ and the ‘connectedness’ of the social world. In order to unpick how punk operates and what meanings it has for members, we must understand the wider social, cultural and economic context in which subcultures – and their participants – are embedded. The thesis concludes that in order to productively conceptualise punk we must recognised the artificiality of a number of boundaries. By widening the lens of what punk is, by realising its global context, and by broadening our definition of politics, we will better understand the everyday meaning of punk to its participants around the world.

The present work comes from my experiences and concerns with the decade of the 1980 s. When living at Parque São Rafael, a district located on the east side of São Paulo city, I had the opportunity to witness the punk movement that grew in the city. Nevertheless, what really called my attention was the little, but growing, commitment to the punk movement with anarchist ideas which were expressed by its practices and experiences. The main aim of this reasearch is to analyse, discusss and study the anarchism in the punk movement, taking into account its political, social and cultural characteristics in São Paulo city. In order to analyse it, the study is based on documents, texts, enterviews, letters, articles and fanzines published by punk members of the studied historical period. We tried to give voice and visibility to historical individuals which actively integrated the punk movement and had relation to anarchist ideas in the decade of the 1980 s. We also bared in mind that the punks are social individuals living and interacting in society. It is known that those interactions are marked by struggles, resistance and interference in their search for indentity references in the city. So our intention is to make a contribuition to the debate and discussion about anarchism in the punk movement. This study does not include conclusions but discusses the ways and interactions in the punk movement related to anarchism as they aimed at an anarchist society. That attitude is still alive in many groups called anarcho-punks which continue their protests in São Paulo
A presente dissertação partiu de minhas inquietações vivenciadas na década de 1980. Morando no Parque São Rafael, Zona Leste da cidade de São Paulo, pude presenciar, cotidianamente, a mobilização punk que emergia com força e vitalidade na cidade. No entanto, o que mais me chamava atenção era o pequeno, mas crescente, engajamento do movimento punk com o anarquismo. Manifestado em suas práticas e experiências no processo de ocupação e vivências nos espaços e territórios da cidade. O objeto de pesquisa desse trabalho é refletir, discutir e estudar o anarquismo no movimento punk, suas incursões políticas, sociais e culturais na metrópole paulistana. Para isto, utilizamos como fontes os próprios discursos dos remanescentes punks da época pesquisada, através de relatos, textos e artigos publicados nos fanzines (meio de comunicação dos punks), cartas trocadas entre os integrantes do movimento e entrevistas com punks do período abordado, onde analisamos as tensões e disputas dos punks enquanto memória de vidas e lutas. Procuramos dar voz e visibilidade aos sujeitos históricos que interagiram, vivenciaram, discutiram e refletiram sobre o anarquismo no movimento punk, na década de 1980. O campo da memória foi abordado com a compreensão de que os punks são sujeitos sociais que interagem uns com os outros e com a sociedade como um todo. Compreendendo que essas interações estão permeadas de lutas, resistências e interferências na busca de referências identitárias nos espaços urbanos da cidade. Esperamos ter contribuído para o debate, as discussões e reflexões sobre o anarquismo no movimento punk. Entretanto, esta dissertação não apresenta conclusões e sim sondagens de caminhos que interagem uns com os outros. Pois o ideal punk de uma sociedade anarquista, onde não haja nenhum tipo de dominação e exploração, ainda persiste na postura e atitude de vários grupos denominados anarco-punks que continuam seu protesto nas ruas e praças da cidade de São Paulo

Abstract:

L'any 1967, D. Quillen introduí la noció de categoria de models, estructura adaptada a l'estudi de l'àlgebra homotòpica. Una estruc¬tura de categoria de models en una categoria donada consisteix en l'elecció de tres classes de morfismes distingits, sotmeses a uns certs axiomes, que permeten definir una teoria d'homotopia en la categoria i representacions concretes de la categoria homotòpica. Així mateix, una estructura de categoria de models dóna criteris per a l'existència i el càlcul dels functors derivats de functors definits entre categories que posseixen la dita estructura. Aquest és el context de la memòria.
Pel que fa a les categories de models, s'hi demostra que cate¬gories habituals de l'àlgebra homològica diferencial i de l'homotopia racional, com són la de mòduls dg a coeficients en una àlgebra dgc, o la d'extensions d'una àlgebra dgc fixada, tenen una tal estructura. Com a aplicació, es demostra l'existència dels functors derivats dels functors "producte tensorial" i "indescomponibles" (cap. II).
Un tipus de models particulars són els models minimals, in¬troduïts a l'homotopia racional per Sullivan. En la memòria es proposa una definició categòrica dels mateixos, que comprèn altres models "minimals" de la literatura (resolucions minimals de Tate-Jozefiak, per exemple). Així mateix es demostra l'existència de tals models en les categories de complexos de cocadenes a coeficients en un anell local i en la de mòduls dg a coeficients en una àlgebra dgc (cap. IV).
El punt central de la memòria és l'estudi de les estructures de categories de models i dels models minimals en les categories bifi-brades, la definició de les quals és deguda a Grothendieck. Una cate¬goria bifibrada pot pensar-se com una família de categories parame-tritzada per una altra categoria. Així, per exemple, les categories de mòduls dg a coeficients en una àlgebra dgc qualsevol o la categoria de morfismes d'àlgebres dgc són categories bifibrades. En la memòria es demostra que tals categories admeten una estructura natural de categoria de models i es caracteritzen els seus models minimals (cap. III i IV).
Entre els diversos tipus d'homotopia racional, Sullivan distingeix els formals, com aquells determinats completament per l'àlgebra de cohomologia. Aquesta noció prové d'una obstrucció homotòpica a l'existència d'estructures kälherianes sobre una varietat. En la memòria, es dóna una definició categòrica de formalitat. Aplicada a les categories bifibrades anteriors, permet generalitzar el resultat de Sullivan: la formalitat dels morfismes d'àlgebres dgc és independent del cos base (cap. IV, teorema V).
L'últim capítol està dedicat al tor diferencial, functor derivat del producte tensorial de mòduls dg i àlgebres dgc. Els principals resul¬tats són la comparació de les diferents defincions del tor diferencial i la compatibilitat amb els functors d'oblit i dels indescomponibles (cap. V).
On 1967 D. Quillen introduced the notion of model category, a structure adapted for the study of homotopical algebra. A model category structure in a given category consists in the election of three types of distinguished morphisms, subject to certain axioms, which allow to define an homotopy theory in the category and specific representations of the homotopy category. Also, a structure of model category provides with criteria for the existence and calculation of derived functors of functors defined among categories which share the above mentioned structure. This is the context to this report.
Regarding the model categories, we prove here that, usual categories in diferential homological algebra and in rational homotopy, such as the category of dg-modules over a dgc-algebra, or the category of extensions of a fixed dgc-algebra have such a structure. As an application, we prove the existence of the derived functors of "tensorial product" and "indecomposables" (chapter II).
A particular type of models are minimal models, introduced in rational homotopyby Sullivan. In this report we suggest a categorical definition of these models, which includes other minimal models already written about (as, for example Tate-Jozefiakminimal resolutions). Also, we prove the existence of these models in the category of cochain complexes over a local ring and in the category of dg-modules over adgc-algebra.
The central theme in this report is the study of the structures of model categories and of minimal models in bifibred categories. We owe the definition of these to Grothendieck. We can consider a bifibred category as a family of categories parametrized by another category. For example, the category of dg-modules over anydgc-algebra or the category of morphisms of dgc-algebras are bifibred categories. In the report we prove that such categories admit a natural structure of model category and we characterize their minimal models (chapters III and IV).
Among the diferent types of rational homotopy , Sullivan points out the formals as the ones being determinated entirely by the cohomology algebra. This notion derives from the existence of an homotopic obstruction to the existence of k¨alherianstructures on a variety. In this report we give a categorical definition of formality. This definition, applied to the above mentioned bifibred categories, allows a generalization of the results of Sullivan: formality of dgc-algebra morphisms does not depend on theground field (chapter IV, theoreme V).
The last chapter centres on the diferential tor, the derived functor of tensorial product of dg-modules and dgc-algebras. The main results are the comparison between the diferent definitions of this diferential tor and the compatibility with the forgetful functor and the indecomposable functor (chapter V).

La pobreza y la política social se han constituido en pilares sustanciales e ineludibles en el funcionamiento del Estado. Los gobernantes de turno preocupados por disminuir la pobreza en una intencionalidad política de legitimar el sistema, intervienen en lo social para la reducción de la desigualdad, la inequidad, la marginalidad, etc. En ese objetivo, la política social se constituye en la principal estrategia de disminución de la pobreza, focalizando a la población pobre e incorporándola a los diversos programas sociales que se implementan, con una propuesta de inversión en capacidades. Los programas de salud, educación y alimentación son los que más se adecuan a esos objetivos. Si la pobreza es percibida como ausencia de capacidades, las políticas sociales tienen el objetivo esencial de invertir en capacidades, para que las personas superen su condición de pobreza.

El presente estudio se llevó a cabo con muestras de suero de 103 bovinos (98 hembras y 5 machos), predominantemente de la raza lechera Brown Swiss, criados en la provincia y departamento de Puno; con la finalidad de estimar la prevalencia de leptospirosis y ver su posible asociación con las variables edad y lugar. Los animales procedían de la Estación Experimental Illpa-INIA (Paucarcolla) y de la Ganadería Cárdenas (Mañazo). La colecta de muestras se realizó durante los meses de febrero y marzo (época de lluvia) del 2005. Los sueros fueron enfrentados a una batería de referencia de 4 serovares de Leptospira interrogans mediante la Prueba de Aglutinación Microscópica (MAT). Anticuerpos leptospirales en títulos mayores a 1:100 fueron detectados en 3 muestras de suero procesados, representando una prevalencia de 2,91%. De los sueros de animales procedentes de la EE Illpa-INIA se detectaron dos positivos a leptospirosis, representando una prevalencia específica de leptospirosis de 2,74 %; mientras que en la ganadería Cárdenas, sólo se encontró un animal reactor, significando una prevalencia específica para el lugar de 3,33 %. En los tres casos indicados, el serovar involucrado fue Leptospira icterohaemorrhagiae, siendo el título máximo de 1:200, obtenido en una hembra de 5 meses de la ganadería Cárdenas. Los títulos mínimos fueron de 1:100, obtenidos de dos hembras de 2 y 4 años procedentes de la EE Illpa-INIA.Palabras Clave: Leptospirosis, bovinos, serología, microaglutinación, prevalencia.
To estimate the prevalence of bovine leptospirosis and the possible association with age and procedence of a study involving 103 sera samples were performed. Samples from 98 female and 5 male Brown Swiss raised in the province of Puno-Puno were obtained. The animals came from the Illpa-INIA experimental station (Paucarcolla) and the Cardenas cattle farm (Mañazo). A sample collection during february and march (rainy season) was performed. Sera samples of 4 serovar reference set of Leptospira interrogans by the MAT were tested. Two positive samples (2,74% of specific prevalence) from the Illpa INIA station and one (3,33 % of specific prevalence) from the Cardenas farm were detected. The three positive cases represented a total prevalence of 2,91%. Leptospira icterohaemorhagiae was the serovar involved in all three cases. Antibody titers of 1:200 from a 5 month old female from the Cardenas cattle farm and of 1:100 from two females of 2 and 4 years old from the Illpa-INIA station were found.Key Words: Leptospirosis, bovine, serology, microaglutination, prevalence.

Abstract:

Detta examensarbete undersöker effekter av en elektromagnetisk puls på IC-kretsar.

För att kunna utvärdera inverkan har ett testobjekt, innehållande komponenter som skall testas, konstruerats. Detta testobjekt består av batteri, en enkel komponent och last. Ett pulsaggregat och en antenn användes för att generera de elektromagnetiska pulser som testobjektet utsattes för. Resultaten visar att inverkan på de testade komponenterna är möjlig. Inverkan visade sig vara beroende av bl.a. avståndet till antennen och den tid som testobjektet utsätts för störning. Störning har också utförts vid olika polariseringar.

Ett mål var att kunna jämföra en elektromagnetisk störning via en antenn med en trådbunden störning, där pulsen genererats från samma pulsaggregat. Försöken att utföra trådbunden störning av testobjektet misslyckades då pulsen inte var tillräckligt bra.

Detta examensarbete är en del av en artikel, High Power Ultra Wide Band and Vircator Source-Victim Experiment, som presenterades vid konferensen EMC Europe 2008.

This paper studies the effects of an electromagnetic pulse on IC-circuits. A DUT (device under test) has been constructed so that the effects of the pulse can be evaluated. The DUT consists of a battery, a load and the component, which is to be tested. A high voltage power supply and an antenna were used to generate the pulses that the DUT were exposed to. The results show that the effects were dependent on, among others, the distance between the antenna and the DUT and the time during which the DUT was exposed to the pulse. The DUT has also been exposed to different polarisations of the pulse.

One of the objectives of the study was to compare the difference between a pulse from an antenna and from a wire. This was to be done with the same high voltage power supply. Attempts to use a wire, for injecting the pulse, were unsuccessful since the damped pulse was not satisfying.

This paper is a part of a paper, High Power Ultra Wide Band and Vircator Source-Victim Experiment, that was presented at the conference EMC Europe 2008.

Abstract:

This thesis explores the punk phenomenon in China. In order to examine punk members and practices, an ethnographic research was conducted in large-scale cities, such as Beijing and Shanghai, and small-scale cities, such as Wuhan and Huaihua in China, as well as on the Internet. In particular, the thesis focuses on two prominent themes subculture and resistance as the main directions of analysis. Through discussing findings from the three dimensions of the individual, collective and online, it is argued that the Chinese punk phenomenon exists as a subculture and punk subcultural practices can be regarded as manifesting forms of resistance in China. First, this study presents a detailed individual biography of one punk musician and then further examines those of other participants. It is discovered that subcultural resistance can have a different impact at different stages of a person s life. Second, this study demonstrates forms of collective practices and how they are manifested, and reveals how Chinese punk subculture members collectively produce different forms of subcultural resistance. Finally, this study examines Chinese punk online. It focuses on how online group members produce meanings of their activities and deploy specific techniques to resist online norms and censorship. Overall this thesis contributes to the ongoing discussions in current field of subcultural studies. By providing a study on punk subculture in China, the research engages empirically in the question of power relations in a society from both individual and collective levels, which has rarely been undertaken before.

Abstract:

This essay examines the inherent instability present in Diana Wynne Jones’ 1986 novel Howl’s Moving Castle. I suggest that in relying on the ambiguity of the story and the setting, Jones creates not only a more complex universe, but allows the characters to be multidimensional -- both literally and figuratively -- without having any stable selves. Using deconstruction as a (non-existent) foundation for my analysis, I contend that the strength of the story is in the looseness of it. Thus, by using a Derridean approach with added Cixousian feminist elements and a heap of Kristevian intertextuality, I further argue that Jones invites the reader to embrace the ambiguity of identity by closely analyzing the conflicting behaviours of the two main characters in the novel, Sophie Hatter and Wizard Howl. In conclusion, I argue that Diana Wynne Jones through subverting classic fairy tale tropes in an ingenious way, suggests that there is no such thing as a final finished growing person and that there is comfort to be found in embracing this incompleteness.

Abstract:

This thesis is the result of a final project work carried out by Anna Friestedt and Kristin Sjövall during the spring semester of 2006. The purpose of this work is to investigate in what ways the Indian city Pune is working towards ecological sustainability within the fields of housing and transporting. The work contains a case study of an area in Pune called Magarpatta City.

The report is split into four parts. First, laws and regulations both in Sweden and in India that concern ecologically sustainable development are presented. Second, an explanation on existing solutions within housing and transporting in Pune follows, later specified details concerning the case study in Magarpatta City is presented and finally this is analysed.

Pune is in many ways working to improve their ways of ecologically sustainable development. In India, and Pune, there are several laws and regulations to regulate sustainable development. Unfortunately it has been a long time since these laws and regulations were updated and by doing so one might achieve sustainability.

Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) has many projects on the go to improve the city environmentally. PMC has brought out an Eco-housing concept which promotes a more ecological way of building. The concept makes it easier for private builders to get a bank loan if the construction is considering several eco-friendly aspects. To achieve more houses constructed in an eco-friendly way Pune and India are in the need of more pilot projects showing eco-friendly materials and construction techniques. PMC is also taking decisions in how to transform the public transportation system to a more environmentally sustainable one. Several different transportations systems are under evaluation. After our time in Pune our meaning is that the Bus Rapid Transit system is the most cost efficient one to implement in Pune.

Magarpatta City is an area in Pune that is developed considering the concept ‘walk-to-work and walk-to-school’. The area has made many efforts towards ecological sustainability and is probably the best area in Pune, as well as in all of India, to do a case study at, in the aspect of ecological sustainable housing and transporting.

Denna rapport är resultatet av ett examensarbete utfört av Anna Friestedt och Kristin Sjövall under vårterminen 2006. Syftet med arbetet är att undersöka på vilka sätt den indiska staden Pune arbetar med ekologisk hållbar utveckling i områdena husbyggnation och trafikplanering samt utföra en fallstudie på ett område kallat Magarpatta City beläget i Pune.

Arbetet har utmynnat i fyra huvuddelar. Inledande tas upp vilka lagar och förordningar som finns i det svenska respektive indiska systemet. Sedan presenteras på vilka sätt Pune eftersträvar ekologiskt hållbar utveckling inom områdena husbyggnation och transportplanering. Därefter följer en fallstudie av området Magarpatta City där deras lösningar och system tas upp. Avslutande diskuteras det nuvarande systemen och förslag på förbättringsmöjligheter presenteras.

Under vår tid i Indien har vi sett att Pune på många sätt arbetar för ekologisk hållbar utveckling. I Indien och Pune finns ett antal lagar och förordningar som styr åt vilket håll utvecklingen bör gå. Tyvärr var det länge sedan många av dessa lagar uppdaterades, så för att bli mer ekologiskt hållbara bör de revideras.

Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC, motsvarar kommunen) har tagit fram ett eco-housing koncept där de främjar ett mer ekologisk byggande genom att göra det enklare för privatpersoner att få banklån om de tar hänsyn till ett antal parametrar som bidrar till ett mer hållbart samhälle. För att främja ekologiskt byggande behöver Pune och Indien pilotprojekt som visar ekologiskt hållbara material och konstruktionslösningar. PMC arbetar även med att besluta hur de ska förändra det kommunala transportsystemet till att bli ett mer ekologiskt hållbart sådant. Flera olika system utvärderas för närvarande. Efter våra veckor i Pune har vi kommit fram till att Bus Rapid Transit troligtvis är det mest kostnadseffektiva systemet att arbeta vidare med. Visserligen krävs speciella filer för bussarna och plats på de existerande gatorna är något som Pune inte har gott om, men det behövs förutom det minimalt med investering, ingen räls eller tunnelbana.

Området Magarpatta City i Pune är uppbyggt kring konceptet ’gå-till-jobbet’ och ’gå-till-skolan’. Det har i området på många sätt arbetats med ekologisk hållbarhet och är troligtvis det bästa området i Pune, såväl som i hela Indien, att utföra en fallstudie på rörande ekologiskt hållbar husbyggnation och transportplanering.

Abstract:

Using a distinctly and deliberately interdisciplinary approach to the subject of religion and spirituality as it presents itself within modern Western Societies today, this thesis argues that Straight Edge hardcore punk is a surrogate for religion. The term surrogate is used to denote the notion of a successor and a protector and provider of nourishment. It has been re-interpreted from Theodore Ziolkowski’s work on the same term in ‘Modes of Faith’, in which he examines surrogates for religion which emerged during the early part of the 20th century. An in-depth study, both theoretical and ethnographic in nature and presentation, of Straight Edge hardcore punk is provided to demonstrate that traditionally held categories of religion, secular, sacred and profane are being dismantled and re-built around ideas of authenticity, community, integrity, d.i.y and spirituality. Through the syncretic practices of the Straight Edge adherents they are de-essentialising religion and thus enabling us to re-consider the question of what religion is or could be. This thesis relies on theoretical ideas, interview quotes, informant quotes, researcher taken photographs, and interviewee created or utilised images, tattoos, graffiti and flyers. All of these are interspersed with song lyrics from various bands relevant to the time period under discussion and the themes being drawn out. Much like the adherents themselves, this thesis exists very much within the space of the ‘in-between’, which creates and reacts to necessary tensions throughout.

Abstract:

This thesis explores the relationships between punk and anarchism in the contemporary contexts of the UK, Poland, and Indonesia from an insider punk and anarchist perspective. New primary ethnographic information forms the bulk of the research, drawing on Grounded Theory Method and an engagement with Orientalism. The theoretical framework is informed by the concept of antinomy which embraces complication and contradiction and rather than attempt to smooth-out complexities, impose a simplified narrative, or construct a fanciful dialectic, the thesis examines the numerous tensions that emerge in order to critique the relationships between punk and anarchism. A key tension which runs throughout the PhD is the dismissal of punk by some anarchists. This is often couched in terms of lifestylist versus workerist anarchism, with punk being denigrated in association with the former. The case studies bring out this tension, but also significantly complicate it, and the final chapter analyses this issue in more detail to argue that punk engages with a wide spectrum of anarchisms, and that the lifestylist / workerist dichotomy is anyway false. The case studies themselves focus on themes such as anti-fascism, food sovereignty/animal rights activism, politicisation, feminism, squatting, religion, and repression. New empirical information, garnered through numerous interviews and extensive participant observation in the UK, Poland, and Indonesia, informs the thick description of the case study contexts. The theory and analysis emerge from this data, and the voice of the punks themselves is given primacy here.

How are we to combat terrosrism? Is terrorism ever morally justified? When is it rational to become a terrorist? What is so terrorizing about terrorism? The answers to these important questions depend on the most fundamental one: what is terrorism? In this thesis I utilize a practice analysis to discover how we in the West think about war. From that analysis, a definition of terrorism, captured in military categories, is offered. This definition is then used to discover what makes terrorism so terrifying for us. Finally, the definition of terrorism argued for in this thesis is tested for its applicability to further analysis by using the definition to analyze the current Israeli-Palestinian conflict, the Pentagon and World Trade Center attacks on events of September 11th, and nuclear deterrence.

Abstract:

La región Puno cuenta con los recursos y oportunidades que le permitirán ser una de las regiones con mayor índice de competitividad del Perú debido a su riqueza altiplánica, aún no explotada al máximo en las actividades económicas como piscicultura, ganadería (fibra de alpaca), agricultura (papa) y el turismo. En cuanto a la primera, la región Puno es la principal productora de truchas en el país y ocupa el noveno lugar en el ámbito internacional como exportadora de trucha congelada. En relación con el turismo, la Reserva Nacional del Titicaca, así como su isla más conocida, los Uros, representan tradicionalmente lo más conocido y concurrido de su oferta turística. Respecto de la ganadería, la fibra de alpaca Puno se extrae desde tiempos remotos con acierto: la mayor población de alpacas del Perú y del mundo está en su tierra, pero su situación podría ser mejor si adoptan tecnologías sofisticadas de crianza para obtener esta fibra que tiene un precio alto a nivel internacional. Con respecto a la agricultura, Puno es uno de los principales productores de papa en el Perú, sin embargo, su situación cambiaría si utilizan la tecnología para la producción primaria y secundaria. Pese a todo ello, esta región está entre las más pobres del Perú, además de ser el principal foco de comercio informal fronterizo, lo que en parte hace que no sea muy competitiva. La visión de Puno al año 2027 es convertirse en la región líder del Perú en piscicultura, ganadería, agricultura y turismo; y así contribuir al desarrollo del país, siendo líder mundial en los respectivos sectores. Asimismo, lograr con estas actividades económicas un aporte en el desarrollo inclusivo y ser reconocida por la competitividad de sus industrias, que deberán ofrecer productos de alta calidad y valor agregado, lo que le permitirá participar en el comercio internacional. Asimismo, la gestión sostenible de sus recursos naturales renovables y la búsqueda de la equidad y la inclusión social otorgarán una alta calidad de vida a su población y con una capacitación técnica a su población se logrará que cubran de manera eficiente sus necesidades básicas. Por otro lado, a mediados del 2018, se ha determinado que Puno cuenta con la mayor reserva de litio del mundo, lo cual, si se realiza un Planeamiento Estratégico adecuado, fortalecerá los sectores mencionados; pues los recursos financieros se incrementarán para todos los sectores. Esto colocará a Puno entre las primeras regiones de Perú debido a su gran potencial natural que presenta. Sin embargo, es importante dirigir los recursos financieros para erradicar la anemia de la región, de forma de impactar notablemente sobre el sector salud y educación
The Puno region has the resources and opportunities of the regions with the highest competitiveness index of Peru due to the highland wealth, not yet in its maximum capacity in the economic activities: pisciculture, livestock (alpaca fiber), agriculture (potato) and the tourism. As for the first, the region of Puno is the main producer of trout in the country and occupies the ninth place in the international stage as an exporter of frozen trout. In relation to tourism, the Titicaca National Reserve, the Uros island, representatives traditionally the best known and most popular tourist offer. Regarding livestock in the case of alpaca fiber, Puno has been dedicated from time immemorial to raising it with a roof: the largest population of alpacas in Peru and the world is on their land, but their situation could be even better if they adopt technologies sophisticated breeding for obtaining alpaca fiber that has a high price in international markets; With respect to agriculture, Puno is one of the main producers of potatoes in Peru, however, its currency situation if it uses technology for primary and secondary production. However, this same region is among the poorest in Peru, in addition to the main focus of informal border trade, which in part makes it not very competitive. The vision of Puno to the year 2027 is to become the leading region of Peru in economic activities: pisciculture, livestock (alpaca), agriculture (potato) and tourism; contributing in the development of the country, being a world leader in the sector sectors. Likewise, achieve with these economic activities a portfolio in the inclusive development and be recognized for the competitiveness of its industries, which promises high quality products and added value, which allows it to obtain an important participation in international trade. Likewise, the sustainable management of its renewable natural resources and the search for equality and social inclusion will grant a high quality of life to its population and adapt to the technique to its population will achieve a better quality of life covering their needs basic. On the other hand, in mid-2018, it has been determined that Puno has the largest lithium reserve in the world, which, if adequate Strategic Planning is carried out, will strengthen the aforementioned sectors; because the financial resources will increase for all sectors, which will impact on the rest of the sectors. This will place Puno among the first regions of Peru due to its great natural potential. However, it is important to direct the financial resources to eradicate anemia in the region, in order to have a significant impact on the health and education sector

Abstract:

Lydia Lunch, David Wojnarowicz and Vaginal Davis are artists who each produced music, film, literature, performance, visual art and installation whilst participating in the subcultural communities of post-punk. This thesis frames them as post-punk polymaths, artists whose subcultural participation provides a link between their multiple artistic outputs. I position these artists in relation to the historical context of post-punk, and document its influence on both specific examples of their work and their artistic strategies more broadly. My original contribution is of a sustained process of attention to the work of these three artists that negotiates their personal antagonisms towards criticism and resistance to historicisation, the methodological challenge exemplified by their practice, and the critical potential of embracing this difficulty. Through an account of New York's post-punk scene (the formative artistic environment of both Lunch and Wojnarowicz), I examine the way the material conditions of the subculture provoked an undifferentiated, multi-media practice. I explore Lunch's work through this subcultural context, and the interrelations of her diverse outputs and intentional blurring of art and life in her public persona. Through the work of David Wojnarowicz, I explore the potential pitfalls of overdetermination, or confined articulations of his practice within popular criticism and academia. My third case study moves away from New York to focus on the work of Los Angeles post-punk artist Vaginal Davis, examining the responsibility subculturally invested artists may have in maintaining their own marginality, through a framing of Davis's practice as self-sabotaging. My thesis therefore highlights the difficulty of rationalising these practices as objects of disciplinarily constituted analysis, the problematic nature of their omission or selective and incomplete engagement, and examines the potential of the term polymath to understand artists whose work fails to map on to the disciplinary remits of academic scholars, genre critics or popular historians.
