Abstract:
Comment rendre compte de la spécificité de l'écriture théâtrale par rapport à d'autres types de discours? Il faut faire ressortir cette spécificité, sans pour aurant négliger les ressemblances qui peuvent exister entre le théâtre et le récit ou les différences entre différentes formes d'écriture théâtrale. La question de la spécificité de l'écriture théâtrale est analysée à partir de l'étude de la trilogie d'Arnold Wesker. Cette étude s'articule autour de quatre domaines: L'espace, le temps, les personnages et le discours. Les conclusions tirées à partir de la trilogie sont ensuite confrontées avec l'analyse d'autres pièces écrites ultérieurement pour déterminer s'il est légitime de parler d'évolution dramaturgique chez Wesker. Ensuite, face à la diversité qui caractérise l'écriture théâtrale et les multiples rapports entre l'univers fictif et la réalité extérieure, L'accent est mis sur la façon dont une lecture sémiotique du texte dramatique permet une analyse plus rigoureuse de la notion de réalisme au théâtre avant d'aborder les liens entre texte et représentation
How may we best define the specificity of the dramatic mode of fiction, compared with other types of literary discourse? This specificity needs to be brought out without either neglecting the similarities between the dramatic mode and non-dramatic modes of fiction or ignoring the variety of different types of drama. The question of the specificity of the dramatic text is analyzed from a study of Arnold Wesker's trilogy. This study is centred around four areas: space, time, characters and discourse. The conclusions drawn are then confronted with a study of other plays written later to see whether it is possible to speak of an evolution in Wesker's dramatic style. Next, in the light of the diversity of dramatic texts and the variety of links between the dramatic world and the real world, emphasis is put on the way a semiotic reading of the dramatic text can provide a more precise picture of the notion of realism in the theatre as a prior step to considering the relationship between text and performance

Abstract:
Dokumentarische und archivarische Aneignungen von Performance-Kunst verschieben den Fokus tendenziell von der grundlegenden Frage, ob überhaupt gespeichert werden soll, auf die praktische Auseinandersetzung mit der Art und Weise, wie Wissen über Performances gespeichert, transportiert, vermittelt, interpretiert und aufgeführt werden kann. Als Paradox bleibt: dass Performance als Live-Art auf den Akt, die Aufführung selbst, beschränkt bleibt, dass sie ephemer sein soll, also nichts hinterlassen darf. Damit Performances aber als künstlerische Arbeiten zirkulieren und symbolischen oder diskursiven Status erlangen können, sind Aufzeichnungen der aufgeführten Arbeiten notwendig, die ihre Existenz beweisen. Im Beitrag werden die verschiedenen Argumente, die in dieses Paradox eingegangen sind, nachvollzogen und an der Praxis heutiger Künstler_innen gemessen, die performativ arbeiten.

The American West is a land of great diversity and stark contrast. It is also a landscape marked by rapid change as a result of such forces as globalization, population growth, and heightened interest in natural resources (either for recreation or extraction). This dissertation investigates these changes to the region through a repeat photography analysis. Between 1982 and 1984, Thomas and Geraldine Vale traveled along U.S. Highway 89 from Glacier National Park, Montana to Nogales, Arizona. Their subsequent work, Western Images, Western Landscapes: Travels Along U.S. 89 (University of Arizona Press, 1989), contained fifty-three photographs from this journey, representing a cross section of the West from border to border. Nearly every facet of the region was represented, from the remote prairie landscapes of Montana to the bustling Phoenix downtown, and from the largest open pit mine in the world to seldom visited corners of Yellowstone National Park. Between March 2009 and August 2010, I retraced the steps taken by the Vales and successfully rephotographed all of the locations contained within their book. The observed continuity or change is examined thematically in order to address the landscapes and cultures of the West in greater detail. Specifically, chapters within this dissertation visually and textually describe changes that have occurred along national borders, within Native American reservations, throughout the rural landscapes and national parks of the region, within the many resource extraction industries, and within towns and cities of every size. Significant findings, which are well depicted in the photographic pairings, include heightened national security along the borders, problems of overuse in many parks and protected areas, the transition of traditional small towns into communities increasingly dependent upon tourism for survival, and both beautification and revitalization efforts taking place in the urban cores of Phoenix and Salt Lake City. By painting a vivid picture of recent Western geography, this research provides for greater ability for residents and scholars of the region to understand the forces at work within their communities and surroundings.

Abstract:
This thesis is about the development of aviation in Western Australia from 1919 to 1941. It includes a detailed description of the major events which took place in the state during that period and of many related events in other places which combined to create the direction which the development of aviation took in this state. The thesis concludes that Western Australia’s isolation from the rest of Australia, politically and geographically, and its even greater isolation from the centre of the British Empire, meant that Western Australians had almost no control over the aviation services which they used. Aviation started early in Western Australia but the state's small population and large distances, as well as the factors of isolation, meant that it developed slowly during the 1920s. There was a brief flowering of activity at the end of the decade but it withered under the pressure of the depression. Developments in the 1930s were the direct result of Commonwealth government planning for the introduction of air services to Britain and growing local commercial support for aviation which followed from government led developments. Preparations for war and the first couple of years fighting, before Japan entered the war, led to even greater Commonwealth control over aviation. The evidence used in this thesis is analyzed from various perspectives but most commonly as politics, imperial relations and administration. This is because they were the main factors to influence aviation’s development when almost all successful air services in Australia were regulated by and often subsidised by the Commonwealth government.

Abstract:
Diese Dissertation handelt von Grenz- und Fremdheitskonstruktionen in iranischen Reiseberichten (sowohl Europa- als auch Russlandreiseberichte) des 19. Jahrhunderts. Durch die Untersuchung der zentralen sozialen und kulturellen Strukturen und Prozesse der Grenz- und Fremdheitserzeugung ist in dieser Studie, die iranische Gesellschaft, in den Besonderheiten ihrer eigenen Geschichte, durch ihre äußeren Begegnungen und Interdependenzen geforscht worden. Anhand der theoretischen Fokussierung auf zwei Konzepte, nämlich Fremdheit und kulturelle und soziale Grenze, wurde die Entwicklung der iranischen Gesellschaft in Anbetracht ihrer Beziehung zu den europäischen Ländern im Laufe des 19. Jahrhunderts rekonstruiert. Zwar ist die Arbeit primär eine soziologische Studie, konnte aber den historischen Kontext der Ereignisse und die literarische Beschaffenheit der Reisetexte nicht unbeachtet lassen.
This work is a comprehensive sociological study on travelogues, specifically with focus on the Iran’s 19th century history (Qajar Dynasty). It presents an analysis that sociologically and systematically registers the staging of cultural boundaries and the socio-historical construction of foreignness in the Iranian society, on the basis of selected Persian travel literature. This study has tried to show that cultural and social boundaries are relational and historical constructs which, in case of Iran, are dramatically affected by the encounters of Iranians (statesmen, students, tourists, etc.) with western countries (Western Europe and Russia).

Full text
Abstract:
Western hemlock (Tsuga heterophylla (Raf.) Sarg.) and western red cedar (Thuja plicata Donn) seedlings from four dormancy induction treatment(s) (DIT) (i.e. long-day dry, long-day wet, short-day dry, and short-day wet) were planted on a high available soil moisture field site in British Columbia and monitored for physiological response and morphological development over the first growing season. Stomatal conductance (gwv) and net photosynthesis (Pn) were recorded over an environmental matrix of photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) (0 - 2.2 mmol m⁻² s⁻¹ ) and vapour pressure deficit (VPD) (0 - 2.5 or 4.0 kPa) on both first year grown and fully developed second year foliage. To compare stocktypes, physiological data were collected and analyzed in the following ways: (1) replicated data at stable environmental conditions once a month, (2) physiological response to one increasing environmental variable using boundary line analysis, and (3) physiological response surface to two simultaneously changing environmental variables. For western hemlock first year needles, short-day DIT had a higher gwv response to both increasing VPD and PAR. Both short-day and moisture stressed DIT improved Pn response to PAR, and the combination had the highest response. Short-day DIT seedlings initially were smaller, shorter, had a better seedling water balance ratio and lower shoot to root ratio. Short-day second year needles showed a slightly higher gwv response to both increasing VPD and PAR as compared to long-day seedlings; however, they showed no treatment differences for Pn versus PAR. All stocktypes had similar final morphological parameter values. For western red cedar first year foliage, moisture stressed DIT seedlings had greater Pn response to increasing PAR and VPD. Also, moisture stressed seedlings gwv response to increasing VPD and PAR was higher when compared to its' non moisture stressed daylength counterpart. The long-day wet seedlings initially had a larger root and shoot system as compared to the other stocktypes. Second year foliage exhibited no treatment differences for gwv and Pn response to PAR ' and VPD. All stocktypes had similar final morphological parameter values. Attempts to test stocktypes at stable environmental conditions proved, at times, difficult. Potentially large measurement variation due to atmospheric environmental changes, and not stocktype effect, could result. Boundary line analysis, when used correctly and with sufficient data, offers a good stocktype assessment method which enables the isolation of a physiological response to one environmental variable. Three dimensional surface response technique was required to provide a clear conceptual representation of two primary environmental variables' influence on seedling physiological response.

Abstract:
This thesis examines the career of the Egyptian architect, Hassan Fathy (1900-1989). Part one deals with Fathy's biography. It contains an account of his family background, his childhood and education, the influences of the Egyptian vernacular and Islamic architecture which helped shape his identity and the influences of modem architectural movements on his early works. It also outlines the development of his nationalistic attitude and personal architectural approach within the context of Egypt's cultural and intellectual history. An examination of his work and theories during the period from 1957 to 1962 when he worked with Doxiadis Associates in Athens; the events surrounding the establishment of Fathy's Institute for Appropriate Technology in 1976 and an assessment of his architecture at the time of his death are also included. The fifth and sixth chapters examine the formal vocabulary of his buildings and projects and the design principles of his village planning. Chapter seven focuses on the complexity of Fathy's architecture and the richness and range of its theoretical intentions. It also assesses Fathy's attitudes towards modernism and the International Style, issues such as auto colonialism and symbolism in architecture and critical responses to his works and philosophy. The relationship of his philosophy to movements such as Post-modernism, community architecture and self-help building, eco-architecture and sustainability and tendencies such as neo-vernacular and earth building are also examined. This reveals the significance of Fathy's approach while placing him within the wider perspective of twentieth-century architecture. The thesis argues that Fathy is one of the most important architects of the twentieth century, whose works have had a widespread influence on the architecture of the Islamic world and whose ideas have extended to the Western world. Chapter eight examines the ways in which architects in both the Western and non-western worlds view Fathy's ideas and works. It distinguishes those architects who have opted to use literal references from his work in an eclectic fashion from those who have made more considered responses to his ideals and principles. A catalogue of Fathy's buildings and projects and a comprehensive bibliography of Fathy's published and unpublished writings are included.

Motlani, Rishad Raffi. "Islam, euthanasia and Western Christianity : drawing on Western Christian thinking to develop an expanded Western Sunni Muslim perspective on euthanasia." Thesis, University of Exeter, 2011. http://hdl.handle.net/10036/3480.

Full text
Abstract:
In this thesis, I will examine various methods of argument used for and against euthanasia by Christian, Islamic and secular ethicists. Overall, this is intended to examine the role of faith-specific or tradition-specific assumptions and sources in shaping the stance on euthanasia that is taken by certain Western Christian thinkers and scholars in Islamic Medical Ethics. Following an initial overview of some of the central concerns of the thesis in the introduction (Chapter I), I will look at a range of select Western Christian perspectives (Chapter II) and certain Western and Eastern Islamic perspectives (Chapter III) on euthanasia. In these chapters, I will investigate how various sources are used by particular Western Christian and Islamic scholars to formulate their perspective for or against euthanasia. In Chapter IV, I will compare the approaches of these Western Christian and Islamic ethicists to determine points of overlap and distinction. Based on this comparison, it may be contended that the Western Christian literature on euthanasia is in some respects more developed than the Islamic literature. Chapter V will take account of some of the types of argument that are found in the Christian literature but for which there is at present no fully developed counterpart in Sunni Islamic literature. For example, the notion of respecting the elderly, as it specifically relates to opposing euthanasia, is discussed in the Western Christian ethics literature reviewed, but is not considered at least in Islamic Medical Ethics sources examined in this thesis. On this basis, Chapter V will offer an expanded Western Sunni Islamic perspective on euthanasia, which engages with strategies of argument drawn from the Western Christian literature, so providing a contribution to the literature in the developing discipline of Islamic medical ethics. The conclusion to the study will identify the possibilities and nature of dialogue on this issue between faiths, and between monotheistic and other ethical perspectives. So a secondary objective is to examine the possibility of convergence of thought among Christians and Muslims not just on medical ethical issues, but on a range of further issues from a Western point-of-view. In this way, the thesis also aims to make a broader contribution to interfaith dialogue as well as the study of method in ethics directed toward a Western audience.

Abstract:

This addresses the problems when a film doesn’t easily fit in to one specific genre. Using No Country for Old Men as an example the study analyses the film from a Western perspective. Is it possible to say that it is a western? To determine that, I compare a number of acknowledged westerns, on the basis to list a number of generic conventions. I then use these conventions in my analysis of the main film. I there discover that the film despite its apparent likeness to the western genre fail to meet one of the fundamental conventions, namely the time aspect. The film doesn’t take place in the 19th century and can therefore be very hard to put under the western category. I however manage to make it so anyway. I expand the genre with a sub genre label. The Contemporary Western is born. The Contemporary Western is a film that meets all the typical conventions of the western except the time setting. This is a film that is a western sett in a modern time.

Rozbor oficiálních stanovisek EU k rozšíření EU o země Západního Balkánu (Chorvatsko, Makedonie, Černá Hora, Albánie, BiH, Srbsko, nově Kosovo) ukazuje na zdrženlivost EU k vlastnímu aktu přijetí. Přes všechna prohlášení o vůli přijmout tyto země, tato vyjádření zůstávají spíše proklamací, bez vyhlášení konkrétních dat přijetí těchto zemí do společenství. Na rozdíl od Rakouska, která jako jediná země EU deklaruje co nejrychlejší rozšíření EU o země Západního Balkánu přímo ve vládním programu jako prioritu své zahraniční politiky. Motivace Rakouska je založena na důkladné ekonomické analýze situace, kdy Rakouské investice do těchto zemí jsou nejvyšší ze všech zemí EU. Mezi Rakouskem a zeměmi Západního Balkánu a Rakouskem probíhá čilý obchod i pohyb osob, na který ostatní země EU nejsou ještě připraveny. Překážkou rychlého přijetí se tedy jeví důvody povahy nikoliv ekonomické, ale politické. Evropská unie se shoduje na roku 2008 jako na roku klíčovém v přístupových jednáních. V době publikace této práce ovšem EU nebyla s to jako celek schválit nezávislost Kosova.

Waddell, Guy. "The enchantment of Western Herbal Medicine." Thesis, University of Westminster, 2016. https://westminsterresearch.westminster.ac.uk/item/q02w3/the-enchantment-of-western-herbal-medicine.

Full text
Abstract:
In the UK the profession of Western Herbal Medicine (WHM) has had to engage with politics and with science in order to survive. Social science work on WHM suggests that traditional knowledge is being overtaken by biomedical knowledge, with one paradigm replacing another, although collaboration with science is also seen as possible. Throughout this work the voices of herbalists themselves have rarely been presented. Drawing from a biographic narrative approach to interviewing, along with supporting ethnographic methods, thirteen cases of individual herbalists are presented here. Eight out of the thirteen cases reveal ‘visible entryways’ to becoming herbalists - beginnings that are congruent with WHM as an increasingly professionalized practice. However, five of these eight cases reveal some sort of ‘enchantment’ with plants or herbal medicines as being important for their practices. Enchantment is characterized as a sensual affective energy and is situated among debates, initiated by Max Weber, on the place of enchantment and disenchantment in the modern world. The five remaining cases reveal‘hidden entryways’, where there are sensual enchanted experiences of crossings between humans and plants on the road to becoming herbalists, often at a young age. Enchantment is also found later on in most of these narratives. The thirteen cases suggest that, rather than a paradigmatic takeover of WHM by science, there is an enchantment of some herbalists by plants and medicines that includes both scientific and traditional approaches to practice. It is argued that the meeting and crossing of herbalists with plants and medicines allows herbalists to draw easily from a diverse range of influences that others may see as incommensurable. Herbs, rather than concepts and theories are, for the most part, at the centre of WHM. The findings suggest that plants and herbal medicines may be seen as having more agency than has been previously considered. Drawing on a herbalist’s engagement with Ivan Illich it is asked whether herbs and herbalists may be seen as each other’s ‘convivial tools’. Beyond WHM, in the plant sciences, the agency of plants is being investigated in the controversial field of plant behaviour and plant neurobiology where the possibility of plant intelligence is raised. Within the social sciences, posthumanism and ontological turns also address the agency of the non-human, where plant agency is beginning to be considered. It is asked whether the profession of WHM in the UK should engage with these developments in the plant and social sciences in order to establish additional networks of support.

Greaves, D. A. "Mystery in western medicine." Thesis, Swansea University, 1995. http://ethos.bl.uk/OrderDetails.do?uin=uk.bl.ethos.637090.

Full text
Abstract:
This study will develop the basis for a critique of western medicine aimed at providing an analysis, starting from the proposition that any system of medicine must necessarily embody a mysterious quality. What is meant here by mystery is an all-encompassing element of indeterminacy, and so of uncertainty in both the theory and practice of medicine. This analysis will therefore begin by examining the relationship between mystery and medicine. More specific aspects of western medicine will then be considered to show how they have developed so as to produce a reinterpretation or marginalisation of all that is not quantifiable or wholly comprehensible in terms of a particular conception of rationality. The insights ignored gained from this re-evaluation will then be used to develop the outline of a different critique which will indicate ways in which western medicine should be modified in both theory and practice. This will begin the recognition that although the present justification of western medicine is flawed, a more adequate one may be found through re-examining current medical practice and re-orientating it by taking account of particular themes in other contemporary and historical systems of medicine. The unrecognised thread which unites and gives coherence to all these medical systems is the role of mystery. It must be wholeheartedly acknowledged if the current mistakes and problems of western medicine are the revealed and understood, so that more plausible moral and scientific foundations for western medicine can be established.

Abstract:
I create a dialogue between films credited with reviving the Western film genre in the early 1990’s. I examine spatial representations in a group of films I label “the revival westerns”: Kevin Costner’s Dances with Wolves (1990), Clint Eastwood’s Unforgiven (1992), and George P. Cosmatos’ Tombstone (1993). Through the use of extreme long shots, characters demonstrating a confined sense of place, and continuity editing, the revival westerns erect a concentrically scaled conception of space and place and maintain a linear temporality. However, I offer Jim Jarmusch’s Dead Man (1995) as an intervention that reassembles these spatial and temporal notions. Dead Man’s abstinence from the extreme long shot, elliptical editing, and multiple, simultaneous, and rearrangeable narratives, envisions space as a uniting presence that precedes and always exists in place, as well as beyond it, realizing place as part of a trans-scalar assemblage and time as non-linear. These spatiotemporal alternatives unmoor the stasis and fixity associated with the revival westerns’ notion of space, place, and time. This spatial and temporal dialogue is then contextualized within the social anxieties and economic violences employed during the neoliberal boom of the 1980’s and early 1990’s. I analyze Dead Man’s trans-scalar assemblage and non-linearity through the ecocritical lenses of Jane Bennett’s “thing power” and Rob Nixon’s “slow violence” to comprehend how Dead Man promotes a structure to enable greater social and ecological care.

Abstract:
Bibliography: leaves 96-100.
In 1988 Methodist people throughout the world were encouraged to commemorate the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the evangelical ·conversion of John Wesley. This thesis arises from a questioning of the exclusive emphasis placed by so many upon Wesley's Aldersgate experience. The question asked is whether Wesley's heart-warming experience was indeed the turning point of his theology and practice, or whether there were other equally important (or even more important) moments in his life. A fresh reading of Wesley has shown that the promotion of this one event in his life has led to a narrow focus which is not born out by his faith and practice. Not only were there many moments of decision in his life, such as the 1725 discovery of Jeremy Taylor's Rules and Exercises of Holy Living and Holy Dying, his submission· to become "more vile" through field preaching in 1739, or his 1784 decision to ordain priests, but each of such moments signified a change in the direction of his life. One such moment was Wesley's decision to respond to the American Revolution. This decision to enter the world of politics proved to be a turning point in his thought and practice, which holds unexplored potential for the political practice of the people called Methodist. It is therefore appropriate that during the anniversary celebrations of Aldersgate, Wesley's thought should be explored beyond the narrow confines imposed by this Aldersgate mania.

Abstract:
This thesis is devoted to a study of the origins and achievements of astronomers in Western Australia from 1829 to 1912. It addresses the questions about the role of astronomy in WA society, the reasons for the establishment of the Perth Observatory, and its achievements between 1896 and 1912. More widely, the thesis addresses the general question of the role of astronomy in our society and the contributions which astronomers have made to the development of Western Australia. The first Premier of Western Australia, Sir John Forrest, persuaded his Government to build an Observatory, promising that it would house necessary services for the State, that is, timekeeping, meteorology, geodesy, tidal predictions and education services, to provide a scientific basis for society. This service developed despite continuing opposition and interference from the Government and some sections of society. The thesis assesses the role of Lord Forrest and the Government Astronomer, W.E. Cooke, and his staff. The thesis examines the historical context of the founding of the Observatory, the initial tasks set for it by Cooke and the extent to which these goals were achieved. Cooke's experience in establishing a modern Observatory in a fledgling society is examined in detail in order to understand the reasons for his resignation in 1912 and the nature of his achievements. This study is intended to be both a scientific and social history of astronomy in Western Australia. It examines the scientific achievements of the Perth Observatory over its first 1 6 years in relation to its original objectives. The thesis also examines the social impact of the Observatory on WA society. The extent of its contribution is best assessed in the long-term where the benefits and costs of years of painstaking work can be more clearly understood. This thesis is intended to provide an insight into the role of astronomy in society and the costs and benefits of major scientific institutions. By focussing on the origins and early development of astronomy in WA we can see how the interplay of political, economic and social factors influences the development of science. We can also see how long it takes for scientific projects to reach maturity and how a long-term perspective is required in order to assess their outcomes.

Abstract:
Over the last 30 years, the structural development of western old-growth ecosystems has been of great interest in ecological research. As the loss of historical forested acreage in western Montana became more widely recognized, the preservation of frequent-fire old-growth stands became a focus of forest management. And, although old-growth studies are commonly found in the literature, few studies focus on long-term carbon (C) storage associated with interior old-growth. This limited understanding of the C storage capacity and patterns in old-growth forests of western Montana leaves little ability to evaluate the role of old-growth forests in ecosystem level C storage capacity. Further, there is a disconnect between old-growth definitions and old-growth management. Forest Service definitions for interior old-growth ecosystems inadequately describe the structure, composition, and function of these ecosystems, and definitions applied from the Pacific Northwest do not capture the unique qualities of old-growth of the Northern Rockies. In this thesis, I first present a review of existing literature on definitions and characteristics of old-growth ecosystems of the Pacific Northwest and contrast these with old-growth forests of the Northern Rockies. In the second chapter, I present studies undertaken to generate empiric data on C storage in old-growth forests of this region. Specifically, studies were conducted to compare ecosystem C of old-growth western larch (Larix occidentalis) stands to that of paired 30-40 year old second growth stands in western Montana. Old-growth forests were found to store nearly three times more C than second growth forests, with most of the difference coming from C stored in the overstory. Finally, the third chapter describes a web-based plant guide that simplifies the challenge of plant identification by eliminating the use of technical vocabulary, focusing instead on visually recognizable plant characters and providing students with a more user-friendly means of identifying specimens and obtaining species-specific information.

Abstract:
Western aesthetic convention represents an accrual of inherited societal perspectives on the artist, the artifact and its consumer. A review of its history and the etymology of its terminology discloses a twofold problem. The first aspect concerns the separation of the manufacture of aesthetic objects from their economic raison d'etre. The second involves the categorization of these artifacts into art or craft. This problem is compounded when considering Western judgements on non-Western aesthetics. Inuit handicraft provides an appropriate model to illustrate the fact that present convention and nomenclature prove inadequate in addressing both intra and especially extra-cultural concerns. A broader and more inclusive orientation is needed.

Abstract:
The northern savannas are one of the largest biomes in Australia, extending across northern and north-eastern Australia, and its vegetation has been extensively altered as a result of pastoralism and inappropriate fire regimes following the loss of indigenous fire management (Fraser, 2001; Legge et al., 2019). Small-medium sized mammals and granivorous birds are the most at-risk taxonomic groups (Franklin, 1999; Franklin et al., 2005; Murphy et al., 2010; Woinarski et al., 2010; Woinarski et al., 2013), and this has largely been attributed to unsuitable fire management, predation by feral cats, grazing by introduced herbivores, cane toads and invasive grasses (Fraser, 2001; Legge et al., 2019; Woinarski et al., 2010). The Partridge Pigeon (Geophaps smithii) is a granivorous bird species endemic to the northern savannas of Australia and has faced major declines disappearing from half of its pre-European distribution (Davies et al., 2019; Franklin, 1999; Fraser et al., 2003), largely due to changes in burning regimes, grazing by exotic herbivores and predation by feral cats. As a result, the Partridge Pigeon is an excellent model species for examining savanna management practices (Davies et al., 2019; Fraser et al., 2003). The aims of this study were: 1) to quantify the changes in the distribution of G. s. blaauwi over time; 2) to assess these changes against IUCN criteria to re-evaluate the species’ current conservation status; 3) to determine the land tenure across the species’ current distribution to evaluate the importance of Indigenous owned and managed lands in the protection of this species; 4) to understand habitat selection of G. s. blaauwi and the influence of fire regimes on habitat selection at landscape scales; 5) and lastly to understand the influence of fine-scale variables on G. s. blaauwi habitat selection. Following my analysis of the changes of G. s. blaauwi range over time I determined that it should still be classed as Vulnerable based on IUCN criteria but recommended that more surveys be undertaken to better assess the poorly surveyed areas of their distribution. Analysis of land tenure indicated that this species mostly occurs on Native Title land (93%) and in areas under Indigenous Protected Areas management (49%). I highlight the importance of Indigenous owned and managed lands for protection of G. s. blaauwi and emphasises the critical role IPA and conservation areas may play in the protection of biodiversity and threatened species in Australia. Next, I was able to determine that the most important geological and vegetation structures for G. s. blaauwi are woodland and open woodland areas that occur on alluvium and colluvium. This allowed me to develop a clear conceptual model of what habitats and fire management practices are required to support G. s. blaauwi populations. Lastly, my investigations of fine-scale habitat variables found none of the assessed variables influenced G. s. blaauwi site occupancy.

O estudo da teologia de John Wesley é um tema crescente no meio acadêmico, verificado especialmente a partir da década de 1960. O foco desta dissertação está na teologia de John Wesley, no contexto cultural do século XVIII; percebendo o quanto e como ele percebe e é influenciado pelo paradigma da modernidade em consolidação no Ocidente. O caminho escolhido para alcançar o objetivo estabelecido para esta dissertação foi verificar o processo de consolidação deste paradigma, e isto num processo gradativo, que se verificou desde os séculos X e XI com o aprimoramento e evolução da agricultura, até o contexto específico da Inglaterra dos tempos de J. Wesley. Uma vez constatado o ambiente de onde emerge a teologia wesleyana, optou-se por apresentar o desenvolvimento de sua teologia, verificando a sua relação com o fluxo provindo do contexto em que está inserido. A conclusão aponta para uma teologia encarnada e vivencial, que tem no caminho da salvação sua motivação originaria e desdobrou-se num complexo tecido teológico, fruto de um esforço de encontrar respostas para as novas perguntas que a modernidade colocou para a teologia e para o cristianismo daquele tempo.
The study of John Wesley theology is a growing theme in academia, especially from the 1960s. The focus of this dissertation is on John Wesley s theology on its context, realizing how he perceives and is influenced by the paradigm of modernity in consolidation in the context of England eighteenth century. The path chosen to achieve the goal set for this dissertation was to analyze the process of consolidation of this paradigm, and it s gradual process that started from the tenth and eleventh centuries with the improvement and development of agriculture, to the specific context of England on J. Wesley reality. Witch the environment where Wesley s theology comes, in mind, the next step is the reflection on his theology, checking its relation with the flow coming from the context in which it appears. The conclusion points to an embodied and experiential theology, which had in the way of salvation its first motivation and unfolded into a complex theological production, as a result of an effort to find answers to the new questions that modernity has put to theology and Christianity that time.

Abstract:

Substance abuse among adolescents is a global problem and South Africa is no exception. In the Western Cape there is an alarming popularity and increased use of an illicit highly addictive substance, locally known as 'tik-tik'/methamphetamine. Adolescents are particularly vulnerable to the neurotoxic effects of this substance and there is an urgent need to address the 'tik-tik' problem in the Westen Cape. Tik/methamphetamine has thus become a great concern to educators, social workers and health practitioners in the province. The goal of this study was to explore the life-world of the adolescent methamphetamine/'tik-abusers' in order to describe their experiences of personal, social and environmental issues in the process of tik-addiction.
