title: Gothic monster fiction and the 'novel-reading disease', 1860-1900
Creators: name: Foulds, Alexandra Laura
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Gothic fiction, sensation fiction, monsters, nineteenth-century literature, fin de siècle, reading, medical humanities.

description: This thesis scrutinises the complex ‘afterlife’ of sensation fiction in the wake of the 1860s and ‘70s, after the end of the period that critics have tended to view as the heyday of literary sensationalism. It identifies and explores the consistent framing of sensation fiction as a pathological ‘style of writing’ by middle-class critics in the periodical press, revealing how such responses were moulded by new and emerging medical research into the nervous system, the cellular structure of the body, and the role played by germs in the transmission of diseases. Envisioned as a disease characterised by its new immersive and affective reading process, sensation fiction was believed to be infecting its readers. It infiltrated their nervous systems, instigating a process of metamorphosis that gradually depleted their physical and mental integrity and reduced them to a weakened, ‘flabby’, ‘limp’ state. The physical boundaries of the body, however, were not the only limits that sensation fiction seemed to wilfully disregard. ‘[S]preading in all directions’, it contaminated other modes, other media, and other kinds of recreational entertainment, making them equally sensational and pathological. One of these modes was Gothic monster fiction at the end of the nineteenth century, which was repeatedly labelled ‘sensational’ and described as generating the same cardiovascular responses as works by Wilkie Collins, Mary Elizabeth Braddon, and Mrs Henry Wood. This infection of fin de siècle Gothic fiction by literary sensationalism can be gauged in the plots and monsters that those texts portray. Gothic monster narratives at the end of the nineteenth century are shaped by the concerns at the heart of middle-class commentators’ responses to sensation fiction, and by the medical lexicon employed to vocalise these anxieties. Monstrosity is linked to contagion and stimulation, as the monster seems to pollute all those with whom it comes into contact. It triggers a process of degeneration and debilitation akin to that associated with the reading of sensation fiction, producing a host of ‘shocked’, nervous, or hysterical characters. Encounters with the monster are linked to recreational reading or other kinds of behaviour that such reading became associated with, such as thrill-seeking, substance abuse, and illicit sexual desire. The result is a group of texts in which the monster embodies the same threat to boundaries, as well as individual, and, at times, national health that middle-class reviewers associated with literary sensationalism.

title: Women's leisure in urban Turkey: a comparative neighbourhood study
Creators: name: Demirbas, Gokben
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Leisure, gender, urban, space, neighbourhood, Turkey.

description: This thesis examines women’s everyday experiences of leisure in two neighbourhoods of urban Turkey, drawing on qualitative data derived from interviews and observations with women living in the city of Bursa. By examining the relationship between women’s leisure and their labour, everyday mobility, and socialisation at a neighbourhood level, the thesis contributes to contemporary debates on leisure within the wider feminist literature, as well as to the current growing interest in everyday life in Turkish social science literature. Examination of the feminist literature on women’s leisure suggests that contextualising leisure within the structure of women’s everyday as a whole is fundamental to an understanding of their leisure. The more contemporary feminist studies on women’s leisure focus on how to understand the dynamic and ever-changing nature of power struggles between different groups, with different capitals and identities, in a specific context. The newly emerging studies on women’s leisure within different country contexts, outside of the North American and European sphere, foreground the necessity to embed leisure experiences within socio-cultural aspects of the context, where additional dynamics, such as the role of religion or the meanings attributed to family and individual independence may significantly differ from Western societies. The current thesis builds on and expands these later works by projecting the empirical focus on Turkey and thereby shedding light on the relevance and limitations of the existing literature in explaining women’s leisure in other contexts around the world. It critically engages with the existing research on (women’s) leisure in Turkey, which is scant and embodies certain limitations. The findings presented in this study illustrate that the prevailing gender order, which confines women to the ideals of the heterosexual family, plays a central role in regulating leisure behaviour. Class, particularly, gives shape both to the existence of leisure spaces in one’s neighbourhood and constructs the “respectability” of social behaviour differently. The thesis makes an original contribution to the existing feminist leisure research in terms of rethinking traditional assumptions about leisure, broadening the definition of leisure and highlighting the significance of local cultural context. It also makes an original contribution to research on gendered everyday in Turkey by evidencing the usefulness of the concept of leisure as a lens to investigate the urban everyday, beyond the dichotomies of work time, free time, workspace, family space, production/consumption etc.

Education policy in Senegal: global transformation processes, IOs’ influence and cultural spheres

description: This paper gives a historical perspective of the Senegalese education system and how different global transformations, namely French colonization, the impact of Islam as a cultural sphere and the influence of International Organizations, have affected the inclusiveness and scope of services of the states' policies on education. The author argues that although the impact of the French colonization is extremely apparent, Senegal is slowly finding its way into building a Senegalese schooling system that reflects the realities of the different communities more than before, through inclusion of local languages in the curriculum, and modernizing Islamic schools to reach more students, thus increasing the inclusiveness and scope of services provided to cover a larger population.

subject: 300

description: This paper illuminates how different developments in Ghana’s national education system are related to global transformations in international politics, such as the rise and fall of various forms of political and economic socialism as well as decolonization. It traces education policy in Ghana regarding three dimensions, namely the development of Ghana’s education system over time, Ghana’s colonial past as well as its short phase under a socialist government, and contemporary international influences from actors such as IOs and development aid organizations. It then relates these findings to the inclusiveness and the scope of service of Ghanaian education policy, arguing that both colonialism and decolonization as well as the continuous involvement of international actors have had significant impact on inclusiveness in Ghana, especially regarding gender parity.

description: Binnendifferenzierung, angemessener, positiver Umgang mit Heterogenität, eine Haltung und Praktiken, die Inklusion ermöglichen – dies sind wichtige Forderungen, denen sich Spanischlehrkräfte heute mehr denn je stellen müssen. Oft werden diese Ansprüche in Kontexten formuliert, durch die sich die Lehrenden unter Druck gesetzt fühlen, z.B. durch große Lerngruppen, schlecht ausgestattete Räume, problematische Stundentafeln. Kein Wunder, dass eine häufige Reaktion auf diese Anforderungen zunächst einmal Skepsis, manchmal gar spontane Ablehnung ist.

description: Die Digitalisierung unseres Alltags ist weit fortgeschritten. Welche Implikationen sind damit für den Fremdsprachenunterricht verbunden? Das Feld ist zu groß, um gleichzeitig theoretisch fundierte wie auch praxistaugliche Beiträge zu allen möglichen digitalen Medien zu liefern. Übersichtsartikel gibt es zu diesem Thema – auch für den Spanischunterricht – ausreichend. Daher widmet sich dieser Schwerpunkt einem spezifischen Thema: dem Einsatz von Apps zur Unterstützung des Fremdsprachenlernprozesses. Bevor unterrichtspraktische Vorschläge zur Verwendung der Apps im Spanischunterricht gegeben werden, sollen zunächst einige Erkenntnisse zur Mediennutzung Jugendlicher und zum Medieneinsatz im Sprachlernprozess vorgestellt werden.

Stratigraphic and Carbon Isotope Evolution of an Ediacaran Mixed Siliciclastic Deep-Marine Base-of-Slope System, First Isaac Carbonate, Windermere Supergroup, Canadian Cordillera, British Columbia.

Mixed Carbonate-Siliciclastic system
Windermere Supergroup

description: The first Isaac carbonate (FIC) is a mixed siliciclastic-carbonate base-of-slope succession in the Neoproterozoic Windermere Supergroup (WSG). Outstanding outcrop exposure at three study areas provided an excellent opportunity to observe the stratigraphic and isotopic evolution of an ancient deepwater mixed turbidite system. Based on lithological and stratal dimensions, the FIC can be subdivided into lower and upper parts suggesting temporal changes in patterns of sediment transport and deposition. δ13Ccarb also changes from -5.2‰ at the base of the FIC to 2.5‰ in the middle and then decreases to -6.3‰ at the top. Notably, the δ13Ccarb of primary cement in FIC strata is substantially more positive than most other Neoproterozoic deep-marine sections, suggesting the retention of their original shallow-marine isotopic signature. Nevertheless, this trend potentially correlates with the EN2 excursion in China and therefore the Gaskiers glaciation (~580 Ma), although better age control of WSG is needed to corroborate this correlation.

Essays on Reciprocity, Institutions, and Political Design
Creators: name: Tondji, Jean Baptiste
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 2018
Subjects: Reciprocity
Political design
Institutions

description: Chapter 1 of the thesis examines a question of how a voting process can be designed to induce rational individuals to display reciprocal and pro-social behaviors. A political procedure, namely, the reciprocity mechanism, is proposed to address this issue. The analysis displays that this new mechanism is a modification of the legislative process encountered in democratic countries. The results indicate that, under natural assumptions on voters' preferences, a stable policy always exists, and it may be unique if preferences are single-peaked. Moreover, any stable policy is Pareto-efficient. It has been argued that the size of the supermajority needed to enact a policy in a decision-making body should depend on the importance of this policy. However, a formal analysis of the relationship between policy importance and the voting rule is still lacking in the literature. Chapter 2 addresses this gap from the perspective of a preference-blind political designer. Given the level of importance of a policy, the goal is to choose the supermajority rule that guarantees the existence of a stable policy regardless of the extent to which individual political opinions are antagonistic, ensures that all stable policies are efficient, and minimizes status quo bias. Chapter 2 solves this problem. A closed-form relationship between supermajority rule and policy importance is derived. The analysis has practical implications for the optimal design and functioning of political institutions. The majority rule is widely used to select policies in political institutions. Chapter 3 proves that this rule is not optimal for sufficiently complex policies. To address this issue, natural preference domains are identified for which the majority rule is optimal under a simple sequential procedure. Under this procedure, the majority rule guarantees the existence of a stable policy, ensures that all stable policies are efficient, and minimizes the status quo bias, no matter the complexity of the policy space. The results imply that this voting rule is not appropriate for certain types of societies, including sufficiently fractionalized societies.
