Abstract:
Portrait painting is an art form that has been used by artists for years. I am using the portrait to convey a story. The story follows a boy's process of becoming a man. The discovery of old family photographs initially inspired the project. The rite of passage theme stems from this inquiry into the process of growing up. Several artists inspired my work in the formal and conceptual aspects of my portraits. Those artists include Paula Rego, Chuck Close, and Robert Henri. "Rites of passage" is a phrase that carries with it many meanings and issues. This creative project is both a consideration

L'individu, en proie à une crise d'identité, est déstabilisé par l'essoufflement des modèles familiaux traditionnels et la mise en cause de l'état comme repère fondamental. Il est à la recherche de nouvelles attaches existentielles. Ainsi, dans la société actuelle, le risque est devenu un mot clé. L'être humain teste ses limites afin de savoir qui il est réellement. Il brave la mort, seul repère fixe qui lui reste. La télévision intimiste semble être un des lieux les plus propices pour réaliser ce défi et découvrir ses repères personnels et sociaux.

Researchers have reported that by the year 2010, two million teachers will be needed in classrooms across the country. The shortage has been attributed to population increases and a rise in the number of teacher retirements. Other researchers contend that the shortage is due to rising attrition rates among new teachers. They claim that new teachers become dissatisfied with teaching due to poor working conditions. As a result, new teachers have prematurely departed the teaching profession in alarming numbers which has placed the educational system at large in a state of crisis. This di

The expected role for women in 5th century Athens as presented in evidence from myths, rituals, medicine and religion was socially and biologically conceived of in strict terms, but it was also perceived as conflicted.

The ideal rites of passage women were intended to pass through in their lives as exemplified in medical texts required women to shed their blood at appropriate times from menarche to marriage to motherhood.

Abstract:
La société Ngobe, étudiée au travers de rituels, accorde une place privilégiée au mouvement vif comme expression de la vie longue. Les rites de naissance et de puberté, masculine et féminine, composant en partie le cycle ka, instituent ce mouvement vif de la vie dont la croissance humaine dépend. Alors que la lenteur qui définit l'état de grossesse vient le contrarier. Pendant la gestation, les activités du couple, leurs interactions sociales et leurs rapports au gibier sont fortement réglementés car la grossesse entrave la croissance humaine et animale. A l'image de la plante adventice ka qui

Abstract:
Sociology has established frameworks for understanding the self as it relates to an array of social spaces and institutional structures - from work and family to organisations and place. However, accounts, interpretations, and readings of subjectivity and processes of self-understanding as they occur in transition, between these spaces (the self in transition), are largely missing from the sociological canon. This thesis attempts to fill that gap by looking at the way individuals construct and maintain work-life narratives on the 'edge' of (or 'in between') those institutional anchors. Based o

Abstract:
In the UK the transition to higher education is being made by increasing numbers of students.

Abstract:

Ce qui était subi devient choisi, ce qui était socialement organisé devient individuellement décliné et un nouveau paradigme ordalique semble émerger de ces conduites adolescentes qui viendraient manifester, concrétiser le passage d’un seuil devenu invisible entre le monde de l’enfance et le monde
