Alcune considerazioni sul rapporto tra semantica e metafisica nella teoria degli eventi di Kim

La teoria degli eventi che Kim delinea \ue8 considerata una delle pi\uf9 influenti teorie metafisiche de- gli eventi. In questo lavoro si presenta tale teoria e si esamina la sua plausibilit\ue0. In particolare, si indaga la tesi semantica di Kim secon- do cui due nominali per eventi sono coreferenziali solo se le espres- sioni predicative che essi contengono stanno per la stessa propriet\ue0. Inoltre, si esamina i) se gli eventi concepiti alla Kim debbano essere distinti dai fatti e ii) quali sono i motivi per cui tale teoria d\ue0 luogo ad una implausibile moltiplicazione degli eventi

Mother, warrior, and prophet : the myth of Kim Jong Suk in DPRK Cinema

In the late 1970s, North Korean propaganda began to increasingly idolize various members of the Kim Il Sung family. Among the hagiographies of the so-called bloodline of Mt. Paektu is that of Kim Jong Suk (1917-1949), the first wife of Kim Il Sung and the mother of Kim Jong Il. Although her cult has attracted the attention of many scholars, this is the first study on the representation of Kim Jong Suk on the screen. The article provides an analysis of five movies dedicated to her, created between 1979 and 1985. All were written by Paek In-jun, the most important screenwriter in Kim Jong Il’s film production unit. The image of Kim Jong Suk in cinema is highly idealized and she is ascribed attributes that exceed typical human capacities; however, cinematic representations of her are careful not to suggest any that might be interpreted as supernatural. Kim Jong Suk is a master in both the male and female spheres. She is a compassionate mother, healer, and nurturer, and at other times a ruthless, merciless warrior. The Mother-Warrior figure she represents refers to paradigms popular in the Communist sphere, and Kim Jong Suk’s selflessness is characteristic of the so-called hidden heroes of North Korean cinema. The uniqueness of Kim Jong Suk lies in her close relation with Kim Il Sung, not as a wife but as his most faithful follower. It makes her a convincing messenger of his messianic role

Poemas de Kim Keun

Kim Keun (1973). Gochang, Corea del Sur. Ganador del premio Munhakdongne de Nuevo Escritor. Publicó el libro de poemas Las excursiones del niño serpiente, y Nos vemos en el cine nube. La poesía de Kim surge, en buena medida, del trabajo que el autor hace a partir del dialecto de la provincia de Gochang, de la que es originario. La obra de Kim emerge de un imaginario en ocasiones sórdido e irónico; su plasticidad y ambigüedad en el lenguaje son dos de los rasgos más evidentes en su obra

Remarks on non-linear noise excitability of some stochastic heat equations

We consider nonlinear parabolic SPDEs of the form $\partial_t u=\Delta u + \lambda \sigma(u)\dot w$ on the interval $(0, L)$, where $\dot w$ denotes space-time white noise, $\sigma$ is Lipschitz continuous. Under Dirichlet boundary conditions and a linear growth condition on $\sigma$, we show that the expected $L^2$-energy is of order $\exp[\text{const}\times\lambda^4]$ as $\lambda\rightarrow \infty$. This significantly improves a recent result of Khoshnevisan and Kim. Our method is very different from theirs and it allows us to arrive at the same conclusion for the same equation but with Neumann boundary condition. This improves over another result of Khoshnevisan and Kim

Respon Amerika Serikat terhadap Uji Coba Rudal Korea Utara di Bawah Pemerintahan Kim Jong UN

This research discusses the United States response to North Koreas missile test and Kim Jong Un as a commander. Since the end of the Korean War, North Korea has been trying to develop nuclear weapons and missile test. Various negotiations have been conducted to prevent the development, but these efforts never succeeded. Kim Jong Un as a new commander of North Korea has contin ued the countrys nuclear testing.This research will explain how the Unites States respond to the North Koreas nuclear development, what kind negotiations are being done, and how North Koreas nuclear weapons influences the United States and South Korea security situation.Perspective that used in this research is Realism perspective. The theory used in this research is the offense-defense by Stevan van Evera. The theory used as a framework for analyzing the factors and cause the North Korean nuclear development and its consequences for United States security situation.Key words: United States, respond, Kim Jong Un, North Korea, missile tes
