    Staging Spontaneity: Corporeal Expression and the Paradox of Acting in the German Theater Discourse Around 1800

    Get PDF
    This dissertation explores how theories of spontaneity and the body are integrated into acting discourses on the German stage. I argue that the spontaneity of the human body represents a recurring feature in the acting discourses around 1800, which provoked a variety of responses from theorists of the theaters. These responses range from theorizing how to utilize corporeal spontaneity for the benefit of the theater to how to diminish its potential inimical effects on dramatic production. Theorizing about actors and spontaneity led these thinkers to re-conceptualize their notions of anthropology, semiotics, media, and human agency. Chapter 1 examines how Gotthold Ephraim Lessing in his correspondences and dramaturgical writings develops acting techniques that seek to reconcile intentionality and spontaneity. Chapter 2 explores the evolution of Friedrich Schiller’s conception of acting and spontaneity from his early dramaturgical writings on the affect of actors to his notion of theatrical grace in “On Grace and Dignity.” Chapter 3 examines Johann Wolfgang von Goethe’s attempts in his “Rules for Actors” to mitigate the uncertainty generated by spontaneity by introducing corporeal regimes of bodily discipline that regulate actors both inside and outside of the theater. Chapter 4 investigates how Heinrich von Kleist frames spontaneity as a solution to an anthropological and theatrical problem in “On the Puppet Theater,” in which the human body’s ability to react without prior thought can accomplish otherwise elusive physical and mental tasks.Doctor of Philosoph

    Asymmetric Solar Polar Field Reversals

    Full text link
    The solar polar fields reverse because magnetic flux from decaying sunspots moves towards the poles, with a preponderance of flux from the trailing spots. Let us assume that there is a strong asymmetry in the sense that all activity is in the Northern Hemisphere, then that excess flux will move to the North Pole and reverse that pole, while nothing happens in the South. If later on, there is a lot of activity in the South, then that flux will help reverse the South Pole. In this way, we get two humps in solar activity and a corresponding difference in time of reversals. Such difference was first noted by Babcock (1959) from the very first observation of polar field reversal just after the maximum of the strongly asymmetric solar cycle 19. At that time, the Southern Hemisphere was most active before sunspot maximum and the South Pole duly reversed first, followed by the Northern Hemisphere more than a year later, when that hemisphere was most active. Solar cycles since then have had the opposite asymmetry, with the Northern Hemisphere being most active early in the cycle. Polar field reversals for these cycles have as expected happened first in the North. This is especially noteworthy for the present solar cycle 24. We suggest that the association of two peaks of solar activity when separated by hemispheres with correspondingly different times of polar field reversals is a general feature of the cycle

    At a Loss for Words: Nonverbal Communication in Kleist's "Über die allmähliche Verfertigung der Gedanken beim Reden," "Michael Kohlhaas," and "Der Findlin"

    Get PDF
    This thesis examines instances of nonverbal communication in three works of Heinrich von Kleist. Once viewed outside the context of authentic communication, nonverbal signs expose structures within his texts. These structures reveal previously overlooked conflicts and character dynamics. The first chapter explores the essay Über die allmähliche Verfertigung der Gedanken beim Reden, and demonstrates that Kleist's model of successful speech acts as an implicit dialogue and consists of nonverbal cues performed the speech recipient. The second chapter extends this analysis to Michael Kohlhaas, whose protagonist is gradually exiled into a nonverbal condition. The third chapter examines the nonverbal elements in Der Findling, particularly glancing, and claims that through nonverbal acts characters previously thought of as passive play an additional active role

    Dissertação (mestrado profissional) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro Sócio-Econômico. Programa de Pós-Graduação em Administração Universitária, Florianópolis, 2016.O objetivo deste trabalho é analisar como se caracteriza o fenômeno da movimentação de pessoal lotado na área de gestão de pessoas do Instituto Federal de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia de Santa Catarina (IFSC). A metodologia utilizada concentra-se no método dedutivo, nas pesquisas aplicada, descritiva, bibliográfica, documental, estudo de caso e ex-post facto, com abordagem qualitativa e quantitativa. Os sujeitos selecionados, de modo não probabilístico, por acessibilidade, são 19 chefes de departamento de administração, 1 diretor executivo, 1 pró-reitor de administração, 3 diretores de gestão de pessoas e 1 chefe do departamento de seleção e desenvolvimento de pessoas do IFSC, totalizando 25 informantes. Para a coleta de dados, foi aplicado, em abril de 2016, questionário e roteiro de entrevista formados por 3 seções: gestão, causas e impactos da movimentação. Os dados coletados foram analisados a partir da distribuição de frequência e da abordagem interpretativa. Como resultados, observou-se que o IFSC não possui práticas consolidadas relativas à retenção e movimentação de pessoas nessa área da Instituição, que as causas mais significativas do fenômeno são a vontade de mudança, rigidez imposta pela legislação para as tomadas de decisão ou ações, nível de responsabilidade, stress e o tempo de serviço, que os impactos mais negativos são gerados para a Instituição e sua área de gestão de pessoas e que, para o servidor que saiu, ocorrem mais fortemente impactos positivos, assim como para os servidores que permanecem no setor. Diante desse quadro, recomendam-se ações para o aperfeiçoamento das práticas de gestão de pessoas adotadas pela Instituição para lidar com a movimentação nessa área do IFSC, focadas em fatores organizacionais e ocupacionais, compreendendo que, para a retenção de talentos, fatores individuais e ambientais não são possivelmente gerenciáveis pela Instituição. Conclui-se, portanto, que o fenômeno da movimentação na área de gestão de pessoas do IFSC é bastante complexo e que a forma com que a Instituição lida com ele depende muito do perfil e do estilo de cada gestor. Esta realidade revela que os gestores não têm plena consciência sobre o significado e efeitos da movimentação para a área e para o IFSC como um todo e, portanto, há necessidade do desenvolvimento de uma política institucional que lhes oriente a lidarem com o fenômeno.Abstract :The purpose of this study is to analyze the phenomenon of personnel turnover related to people of the personnel management department at Federal Institute of Santa Catarina (IFSC). The methodology focuses on the deductive method, applied and descriptive research, bibliographic and document research, case study and ex-post facto research, with qualitative and quantitative approach. For selecting the sample it was used a non-probabilistic technique, applying the accessibility criterion, resulting in 19 heads of administration department, 1 CEO, 1 Administration Pro-rector, 3 people human resources management directors, 1 head of the IFSC´s human resource development department. To collect data, it was applied, in April 2016, a questionnaire and interviews form formed by 3 sections: turnover management, causes and impacts. Data were analyzed from the frequency distribution and interpretative approach. As a result, it was observed that IFSC personnel management department hasn´t established practices regarding retention and turnover of people, the most significant causes of the phenomenon are the willingness to change, rigidity imposed by law for decision making or actions, level of responsibility, stress and length of service, the most negative impacts are generated for the institution and its personnel management areas, but for server that remains in the sector and for the server that came out occur more strongly positive impacts. Considering this situation, it was recommended some actions for improving people management practices adopted by IFSC to handle the phenomenon in this, observing organizational and occupational factors, including that for the retention of talent in human resource management area in IFSC, but, it isn´t possible to manager other individual and environmental factors. For the conclusion, we considered that the phenomenon in the human resource department in IFSC is complex and the way the Institution deals with it depends on the profile and management style. So, it reveals that managers do not have full consciousness about the meaning and effects of phenomenon for the mentioned area and for the organization and, therefore, it is important to develop policies for the Institution that makes possible for its managers to deal with the phenomenon.

    Development and evaluation of predictive models for measuring the biological integrity of streams

    Get PDF
    The ratio of the number of observed taxa to that expected to occur in the absence of human-caused stress (OIE) is an intuitive and ecologically meaningful measure of biological integrity. We examined how OIE ratios derived from stream invertebrate data varied among 234 unimpaired reference sites and 254 test sites potentially impaired by past logging. Data were collected from streams in three montane ecoregions in California. Two sets of River Invertebrate Prediction and Classification System (RIVPACS) predictive models were built: one set of models was based on near-species taxonomic resolution; the other was based on family identifications. Two models were built for each level of taxonomic resolution: one calculated 0 and E based on all taxa with probabilities of capture (PC) \u3e 0; the other calculated 0 and E based on only those taxa with PC2 0.5. Evaluations of the performance of each model were based on three criteria: (1) how well models predicted the taxa found at unimpaired sites, (2) the degree to which OIE values differed among unimpaired reference sites and potentially impaired test sites, and (3) the degree to which test site OIE values were correlated with independent measures of watershed alteration. Predictions of species models were more accurate than those of family models, and predictions of the PC2 0.5 species model were more robust than predictions of the PC2 0 model. OIE values derived from both species models were related to land use variables, but only assessments based on the PC2 0.5 model were insensitive to naturally occurring differences among streams, ecoregions, and year

    Hemispheric Sunspot Numbers R_n and R_s: Catalogue and N-S asymmetry analysis

    Get PDF
    Sunspot drawings are provided on a regular basis at the Kanzelhoehe Solar Observatory, Austria, and the derived relative sunspot numbers are reported to the Sunspot Index Data Center in Brussels. From the daily sunspot drawings, we derived the northern, R_n, and southern, R_s, relative sunspot numbers for the time span 1975-2000. In order to accord with the International Sunspot Numbers R_i, the R_n and R_s have been normalized to the R_i, which ensures that the relation R_n + R_s = R_i is fulfilled. For validation, the derived R_n and R_s are compared to the international northern and southern relative sunspot numbers, which are available from 1992. The regression analysis performed for the period 1992-2000 reveals good agreement with the International hemispheric Sunspot Numbers. The monthly mean and the smoothed monthly mean hemispheric Sunspot Numbers are compiled into a catalogue. Based on the derived hemispheric Sunspot Numbers, we study the significance of N-S asymmetries and the rotational behavior separately for both hemispheres. We obtain that about 60% of the monthly N-S asymmetries are significant at a 95% level, whereas the relative contributions of the northern and southern hemisphere are different for different cycles. From the analysis of power spectra and autocorrelation functions, we derive a rigid rotation with about 27 days for the northern hemisphere, which can be followed for up to 15 periods. Contrary to that, the southern hemisphere reveals a dominant period of about 28 days, whereas the autocorrelation is strongly attenuated after 3 periods. These findings suggest that the activity of the northern hemisphere is dominated by an active zone, whereas the southern activity is mainly dominated by individual long-lived sunspot groups.Comment: 9 pages, 8 figures, data catalogue online available at http://cdsweb.u-strasbg.fr/cgi-bin/qcat?J/A+A/390/70

    Solar-Cycle Characteristics Examined in Separate Hemispheres: Phase, Gnevyshev Gap, and Length of Minimum

    Full text link
    Research results from solar-dynamo models show the northern and southern hemispheres may evolve separately throughout the solar cycle. The observed phase lag between the hemispheres provides information regarding the strength of hemispheric coupling. Using hemispheric sunspot-area and sunspot-number data from Cycles 12 - 23, we determine how out of phase the separate hemispheres are during the rising, maximum, and declining period of each solar cycle. Hemispheric phase differences range from 0 - 11, 0 - 14, and 2 - 19 months for the rising, maximum, and declining periods, respectively. The phases appear randomly distributed between zero months (in phase) and half of the rise (or decline) time of the solar cycle. An analysis of the Gnevyshev gap is conducted to determine if the double-peak is caused by the averaging of two hemispheres that are out of phase. We confirm previous findings that the Gnevyshev gap is a phenomenon that occurs in the separate hemispheres and is not due to a superposition of sunspot indices from hemispheres slightly out of phase. Cross hemispheric coupling could be strongest at solar minimum, when there are large quantities of magnetic flux at the Equator. We search for a correlation between the hemispheric phase difference near the end of the solar cycle and the length of solar-cycle minimum, but found none. Because magnetic flux diffusion across the Equator is a mechanism by which the hemispheres couple, we measured the magnetic flux crossing the Equator by examining magnetograms for Solar Cycles 21 - 23. We find, on average, a surplus of northern hemisphere magnetic flux crossing during the mid-declining phase of each solar cycle. However, we find no correlation between magnitude of magnetic flux crossing the Equator, length of solar minima, and phase lag between the hemispheres.Comment: 15 pages, 7 figure
