Distribution
D F N S.  Note
 The question of whether the moss-feeding M. escherichi represents the secondary host generations of the Sorbus -feeding M. drepanosiphoides (Börner, 1939), which would make the two taxa synonymous (Blackman & Eastop 2014), has not yet been definitely resolved, and is awaiting results from molecular analyses. Until then, I prefer to continue regarding the two taxa as separate species, because they are morphologically distinctive. Among other characteristics are the siphunculi, which are generally quite constant throughout the parthenogenetic morphs. In the Sorbus -feeding fundatrix and alatae they are long, black and truncate, with a large terminal aperture. The transfer experiments of M. drepanosiphoides from Sorbus to Plagiothecium laetum performed by Stekolshchikov & Shaposhnikov (1993) would, however, give support for the synonymy.

Complimentary therapies : the decision-making process of women with breast cancer
Creators: name: Truant, Tracy
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Complementary therapy (CT) use by women with breast cancer is increasing in popularity. However, informed decisions about CT use are difficult for women due to limited and conflicting sources of information in the accessible lay literature, and lack of knowledge by health care professionals. The purpose of this grounded theory study was to describe the process by which women with breast cancer make decisions about CTs, including the integration of CTs into orthodox cancer treatment plans. Open-ended interviews were conducted with 16 women receiving orthodox cancer treatment, from across the breast cancer trajectory, from a variety of cultural groups, and who used a wide range of CTs. Analysis of the interviews involved identification of three interconnected phases of the CT decision-making process: 1) Getting Something in Place: Covering all the Bases, 2) Hand-picking CTs which Fit: Getting a Personalized Regimen in place, and 3) Living with the Security of CTs: Fine-Tuning a Regimen to Live With. All of these phases occurred within the breast cancer trajectory, with the first phase initiated at the time of diagnosis. Phase two usually did not begin until after surgery and lasted throughout orthodox treatment and beyond. The third phase generally began sometime after the completion of orthodox treatment, lasting perhaps for the remainder of one's lifetime. However, when a recurrence of breast cancer occurred, or a shift from a curative to palliative intent, women returned to the second phase, modifying their existing CT regimen. The use of CTs was identified as an important means by which to regain control and maintain hope. Relationships with health care professionals were found to be highly influential, both positively and negatively, in the CT decision-making process. The process described in this study provides a beginning understanding of how women with breast cancer make decisions about CT use. Interventions to support CT decision-making were outlined which help women to maintain control and foster hope. The findings of this study will help nurses and other health care professionals in assisting women to make informed decisions about their health, including the safe integration of CTs into their cancer treatment plan.

description: We develop a symmetric teleparallel gravity model in a space-time with only the non-metricity is nonzero, in terms of a Lagrangian quadratic in the non-metricity tensor. We present a detailed discussion of the variations that may be used for any gravitational formulation. We seek Schwarzschild-type solutions because of its observational significance and obtain a class of solutions that includes Schwarzschild-type, Schwarzschild-de Sitter-type and Reissner-Nordström-type solutions for certain values of the parameters. We also discuss the physical relevance of these solutions.

description: In this paper I explain how I usually introduce the Schrödinger equation during the quantum mechanics course. My preferred method is the chronological one. Since the Schrödinger equation belongs to a special case of wave equations I start the course with introducing the wave equation. The Schrödinger equation is derived with the help of the two quantum concepts introduced by Max Planck, Einstein, and de Broglie, i.e., the energy of a photon $E=\hbarω$ and the wavelength of the de Broglie wave $λ=h/p$. Finally, the difference between the classical wave equation and the quantum Schrödinger one is explained in order to help the students to grasp the meaning of quantum wavefunction $Ψ({\bf r},t)$. A comparison of the present method to the approaches given by the authors of quantum mechanics textbooks as well as that of the original Nuffield A level is presented. It is found that the present approach is different from those given by these authors, except by Weinberg or Dicke and Wittke. However, the approach is in line with the original Nuffield A level one.

Electromagnetic fields from the extended Kharzeev-McLerran-Warringa model in relativistic heavy-ion collisions

description: Based on the Kharzeev-McLerran-Warringa (KMW) model that estimates strong electromagnetic (EM) fields generated in relativistic heavy-ion collisions, we generalize the formulas of EM fields in the vacuum by incorporating the longitudinal position dependence, the generalized charge distributions and retardation correction. We further generalize the formulas of EM fields in the pure quark-gluon plasma (QGP) medium by incorporating a constant Ohm electric conductivity and also during the realistic early-time stages QGP evolution by using a time-dependent electric conductivity. Using the extended KMW model, we observe a slower time evolution and a more reasonable impact parameter $b$ dependence of the magnetic field strength than those from the original KMW model in the vacuum. The inclusion of medium effects by using the lattice data helps to further prolong the time evolution of magnetic field, such that the magnetic field strength during the realistic QGP evolution at thermal freeze-out time can meet the $1σ$ bound constrained from experimentally measured difference in global polarizations of $Λ$ and $\barΛ$ hyperons in Au+Au collisions at top RHIC energy. These generalized formulations in the extended KMW model will be potentially useful for many EM fields relevant studies in heavy-ion collisions, especially at lower colliding energies and for various species of colliding nuclei.

Literary Practice as High-Stakes Action: Narrative Medicine in the School of English
Creators: name: Rogers, Catherine
Publisher: name: Ex-centric Narratives: Journal of Anglophone Literature, Culture and Media
Year: 2017

description: At the heart of narrative medicine as conceived and practiced at the Columbia University Program in Narrative Medicine lies the desire to maintain contact, the move toward intersubjective encounter, reader and writer, doctor and patient, colleague and colleague. Whereas narrative medicine is most commonly described as arming medical professionals with narrative tools to develop more effective relationships in health care, the human consequences and ethical implications for literature scholars in this interdisciplinary practice are equally profound. “Ethics” can be an unfashionable word in contemporary literary circles. Today’s scientific community, by contrast, regularly tackles issues of empathy and “meaning.” Contact, engagement, and affiliation are at the heart of both the literary and the medical act, and by extension, the ethical act. Post-workshop reflections from the Aristotle University Thessaloniki School of English narrative medicine seminar “Understanding Illness and Trauma through Narrative” (2013) indicate that narrative medicine calls readers and writers toward conscious engagement with the complexity of the other. Around the narrative medicine table, when physicians, writers, and literary scholars alike look and look again at a text, they are called to act, to engage with the real-world implications of those texts, and so to understand literary practice as real-world endeavor.

Relationship Between Weights Measured by Permanent Truck Scales and Golden River Weigh-In-Motion Scales
Creators: name: Southgate, Herbert F.
Publisher: name: Kentucky Transportation Center, University of Kentucky
Year: 1989
Subjects: subject: Transportation Engineering

description: The Division of Planning purchased a Golden River Weigh-in-Motion system. The first assignment was to determine the optimum calibration setting for operating each weigh mat. The second assignment was to determine the sensitivity of the weigh data. The third assignment was to develop appropriate relationships to adjust the dynamic data to equivalent static data.  A series of correlation efforts established the appropriate calibration factor for each weigh mat. Then the mats were installed at a site on I 64 in Shelby County and data were collected for over 1,600 trucks. From these data, it became evident that equations to adjust dynamic loads to equivalent static loads should be developed for individual axle locations on the truck rather than the gross weight as recommended by the manufacturer. The primary reason was that the steering axle's dynamic load was approximately 70 percent of the static axleload. The discrepancy is due to the torque transmitted from the engine to the drive axles which partially lifts the steering axle off the pavement. Therefore, equations were developed for:      Steering Axle     Single Drive Axle     Single Axle on Trailer     Drive Tandem Axles     Trailer Tandem Axles     Drive Tridem Axles     Trailer Tridem Axles  Observations of truck dynamics combined with literature review indicated that dynamic axleloads are affected by:      Engine torque,     Temperature of rigid pavements,     Location of axle on truck,     Pavement roughness rather than pavement type, and     Suspension system between truck frame and axles.
The Privilege of Language, Trigger Warnings, & Some Controversies of Pedagogy
Creators: name: Kalfopoulou, Adrianne
Publisher: name: Ex-centric Narratives: Journal of Anglophone Literature, Culture and Media
Year: 2017

description: This paper explores debates around trigger warnings, examples of linguistic whitewashing in canonical texts, and Title IX controversies, as they contest the power of language to subvert hegemonies of convention. The ethical implications, for example, of the NewSouth Books 2011 edition of Mark Twain’s classic, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn, sans the 219 instances of “the n-word” is paradigmatic of how such omissions have contributed to re-inscribing white assumptions of entitlement. From Ovid’s “Metamorphosis” to more contemporary instances of David Mamet’s “Oleanna” and Cheryl Lu-Lien Tan’s debut novel, Sarong Party Girls, literature’s ability to dramatize and speak our more disturbing truths is what maintains its power to undermine the silencing apparatuses implicit in mainstream discourses. In bell hooks words, as she discusses the effort of coming to voice in black cultural studies, “Everywhere we go there is a pressure to silence our voices, to co-opt and undermine them.” This paper attempts to deconstruct some appropriations of efforts to voice exclusions as they overtly or covertly attempt to neutralize such challenges.

Waging War on Nature: Ecospaces, Ethnoecologies and Chicana/o Writings
Creators: name: Emmanouilidou, Sofia
Publisher: name: Ex-centric Narratives: Journal of Anglophone Literature, Culture and Media
Year: 2018

description: Since the rise of El Movimiento in the 1960s, Chicanas/os have negotiated space (urban, rural and the wilderness) as central to la raza’s struggles for legitimate citizenship in the U.S. Chicana/o ecowritings reach beyond attempts at self-definition, and construe the natural world as a battleground for the enactment of a relentless war that western civilizations have waged on both nature and indigenous cultures. The aim of this paper is to pinpoint the interrelated themes of trauma and disenfranchisement in contexts of environmental exigency and colloquy (i.e. ecodestruction and environmental racism). If greening societies is an ethical reassessment of human praxis (classified among the so-called practices de la liberación), environmental writings take the ecophilosophical angle as an essential tactic for the democratization of world affairs. Accordingly, this paper discusses Chicana/o thinkers and writers who tackle the spatio-temporal hermeneutics not in the traditional channels of collective awareness, but in the composition of ecowritings as an expression of political insurgence or as a defensive strategy in the war on nature.

description: SDO/AIA images the full solar disk in several EUV bands that are each sensitive to coronal plasma emissions of one or more specific temperatures. We observe that when isolated active regions (ARs) are on the disk, full-disk images in some of the coronal EUV channels show the outskirts of the AR as a dark moat surrounding the AR. Here we present seven specific examples, selected from time periods when there was only a single AR present on the disk. Visually, we observe the moat to be most prominent in the AIA 171 Angstrom band, which has the most sensitivity to emission from plasma at log10 T = 5.8. By examining the 1D line-of-sight emission measure temperature distribution found from six AIA EUV channels, we find the intensity of the moat to be most depressed over the temperature range log10 T ~ 5.7 - 6.2 for most of the cases. We argue that the dark moat exists because the pressure from the strong magnetic field that splays out from the AR presses down on underlying magnetic loops, flattening those loops -- along with the lowest of the AR's own loops over the moat -- to a low altitude. Those loops, which would normally emit the bulk of the 171 Angstrom emission, are restricted to heights above the surface that are too low to have 171 Angstrom-emitting plasmas sustained in them, according to Antiochos & Noci (1986), while hotter EUV-emitting plasmas are sustained in the overlying higher-altitude long AR-rooted coronal loops. This potentially explains the low-coronal-temperature dark moats surrounding the ARs.

description: We identify red supergiants (RSGs) in our spiral neighbors M31 and M33 using near-IR (NIR) photometry complete to a luminosity limit of log L/Lo=4.0. Our archival survey data cover 5 deg^2 of M31, and 3 deg^2 for M33, and are likely spatially complete for these massive stars. Gaia is used to remove foreground stars, after which the RSGs can be separated from asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars in the color-magnitude diagram. The photometry is used to derive effective temperatures and bolometric luminosities via MARCS stellar atmosphere models. The resulting H-R diagrams show superb agreement with the evolutionary tracks of the Geneva evolutionary group. Our census includes 6400 RSGs in M31 and 2850 RSGs in M33 within their Holmberg radii; by contrast, only a few hundred RSGs are known so far in the Milky Way. Our catalog serves as the basis for a study of the RSG binary frequency being published separately, as well as future studies relating to the evolution of massive stars. Here we use the matches between the NIR-selected RSGs and their optical counterparts to show that the apparent similarity in the reddening of OB stars in M31 and M33 is the result of Malmquist bias; the average extinction in M31 is likely higher than that of M33. As expected, the distribution of RSGs follows that of the spiral arms, while the much older AGB population is more uniformly spread across each galaxy's disk.

Res., 112, A06112, doi:10.1029/2006JA012149 Gopalswamy et al. [2007] studied the geoeffectiveness of halo coronal mass ejections (CMEs) on the basis of solar observations during 1996-2005 and found that the geoeffectiveness of 229 frontside halo CMEs was 71%. Recently for observations of 305 frontside halo CMEs during 1997-2003 the geoeffectiveness was found to be 40% [Kim et al., 2005]. Complex analysis of both solar and interplanetary measurements showed that the geoeffectiveness of frontside halo CMEs is likely to be about 50% [Yermolaev et al., 2005; Yermolaev and Yermolaev, 2006]. Gopalswamy et al. [2007] did not discuss possible causes of this difference and were limited only to the general words: "The reason for the conflicting results (geoeffectiveness of CMEs ranging from 35% to more than 80%) may be attributed to the different definition of halo CMEs and geoeffectiveness." So, here we shall present our point of view on high geoeffectivenees of CME obtained in paper by Gopalswamy et al. [2007].

description: Under a certain scaling, the electron densities of finite systems become both large and slowly-varying, so that the gradient expansions of the density functionals for the Kohn-Sham kinetic and exchange energies become asymptotically exact to order $\nabla^2$. Neutral atoms of large $Z$ scale similarly, but a cusp correction at the nucleus requires generalizing the gradient expansion for exchange, producing the wrong gradient coefficient in the slowly-varying limit. Meta-generalized gradient approximations (meta-GGA's) recover both the slowly-varying and large-$Z$ limits. GGA correlation energies of large-Z atoms are found to be accurate.

description: Many prescriptive approaches to developing software intensive systems have been advocated but each is based on assumptions about context. It has been found that practitioners do not follow prescribed methodologies, but rather select and adapt specific practices according to local needs. As researchers, we would like to be in a position to support such tailoring. However, at the present time we simply do not have sufficient evidence relating practice and context for this to be possible. We have long understood that a deeper understanding of situated software practices is crucial for progress in this area, and have been exploring this problem from a number of perspectives. In this position paper, we draw together the various aspects of our work into a holistic model and discuss the ways in which the model might be applied to support the long term goal of evidence-based decision support for practitioners. The contribution specific to this paper is a discussion on model evaluation, including a proof-of-concept demonstration of model utility. We map Kernel elements from the Essence system to our model and discuss gaps and limitations exposed in the Kernel. Finally, we overview our plans for further refining and evaluating the model.

The secular frequencies for Strontium-88 and Calcium-40 ions were calculated from ion trajectories, simulated using boundary-element and finite-difference numerical methods. The results were compared against experimental measurements. Both numerical methods showed high accuracy with boundary-element method being more accurate. Such simulations can be useful tools for designing new traps and trap arrays. They can also be used for obtaining precise trapping parameters for desired ion control when no analytical approach is possible as well as for investigating the ion heating rates due to thermal electronic noise.

Henry James and the Ethics of Recollection
Creators: name: Zacharias, Greg
Publisher: name: Ex-centric Narratives: Journal of Anglophone Literature, Culture and Media
Year: 2017

description: Henry James’s melancholic quality of mind enabled him to understand his relation to the past so that he could free himself of its hold without, at the same time, separating himself from it. It shaped his way of living. As James demonstrates in his notebooks, his past remains with him through his awareness and naming of it. His melancholy relation to the past enables him to use it as part of his identity and, at the same time, as part of the changes to that identity. This is James’s melancholy practice of “facing” his past. His way of using memory, engaging the past as he recalls it, the uses to which he puts the products of that engagement, establishes the ethics of recollection. To develop this study, the essay uses work on melancholy from Sigmund Freud, Jonathan Flatley, Heather Love, David McWhirter, and Lynda Zwinger.

description: We present a lattice QCD based determination of the chiral phase transition temperature in QCD with two massless (up and down) and one strange quark having its physical mass. We propose and calculate two novel estimators for the chiral transition temperature for several values of the light quark masses, corresponding to Goldstone pion masses in the range of $58~{\rm MeV}\lesssim m_π\lesssim 163~{\rm MeV}$. The chiral phase transition temperature is determined by extrapolating to vanishing pion mass using universal scaling relations. After thermodynamic, continuum and chiral extrapolations we find the chiral phase transition temperature $T_c^0=132^{+3}_{-6}$ MeV. We also show some preliminary calculations that use the conventional estimator for the pseudo-critical temperature and compare with the new estimators for $T_c^0$. Furthermore, we show results for the ratio of the chiral order parameter and its susceptibility and argue that this ratio can be used to differentiate between $O(N)$ and $Z_2$ universality classes in a non-parametric manner.

description: The Extragalactic Lens VLBI Imaging Survey (ELVIS) searches for central images of lensed radio quasars, in order to measure the central density profiles of distant galaxies. Here we present sensitive multi-epoch Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) observations of PMN J1838-3427 at 8 GHz, with a 1 sigma noise level of 38 microJy beam^(-1). Based on the absence of a central image of the background source at this level, we explore the possibilities for the central matter distribution in the lens galaxy. A power-law density profile, rho ~ r^(-gamma), must have gamma > 1.93. Thus the density profile is close to an isothermal profile (gamma = 2) or steeper. The upper limit on any constant-density core in an otherwise isothermal profile is ~< 5 parsecs. We also derive the constraints on models in which the density profile is isothermal on kiloparsec scales, but is allowed to have a different power law in the central ~100 parsecs. If the lens galaxy harbors a supermassive black hole, the galaxy profile is allowed to be shallower, but for the expected black hole mass the galaxy profile must still be close to isothermal or steeper.

description: Water and ice Cherenkov telescopes of the present and future aim for the detection of a neutrino signal from extraterrestrial sources at energies E>PeV. Some of the most promising extragalactic sources are Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN). In this paper, the neutrino flux from two kinds of AGN sources will be estimated assuming photohadronic interactions in the jet of the AGN. The first analyzed sample contains FR-II radio galaxies while the second AGN type examined are blazars. The result is highly dependent on the proton's index of the energy spectrum. To normalize the spectrum, the connection between neutrino and disk luminosity will be used by applying the jet-disk symbiosis model from Falcke and Biermann (1995). The maximum proton energy and thus, also the maximum neutrino energy of the source is connected to its disk luminosity, which was shown by Lovelace (1976) and was confirmed by Falcke et al. (1995).

Ethnic differences and domain specificity in young adolescents’ implicit beliefs about intelligence
Creators: name: Pacheva, Daniela Jivkova
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: The present study examined the presence of ethnic and school - subject domain differences in implicit beliefs about the malleability of intelligence and in attributions for academic success and failure in a sample of 204 Asian -Canadian (N=146) and Caucasian- Canadian (N= 58) eighth-grade students. Students were given a questionnaire measuring their attributions for success and failure in the domains of math/science and language arts/social studies and their beliefs about the malleability of intelligence in general, as well as in the domains of math/science and language arts/social studies. The analyses of the data failed to detect ethnic differences in both attributions and implicit beliefs. The students, however, demonstrated different attributional patterns in the two academic domains. All students distinguished the two domains by attributing failure to effort more often in language arts/social studies and failure to ability in math/science. The study found that students could hold domain specific beliefs about the malleability of intelligence related to the different school - subject domains. Students demonstrating a maladaptive attributional pattern held predominantly the view that intelligence is not malleable, whereas students demonstrating an adaptive attributional pattern held predominantly the view that abilities can be changed through investment of effort. In addition, there was a domain - to - domain correspondence between attributional patterns and implicit beliefs about abilities. The study provides evidence that students perceive differently abilities in the domains of math/science and language arts/social studies, and they demonstrate different motivational tendencies in these domains. Variance in the attributions across domains was parallel to the changes in implicit beliefs in the respective domains, indicating a relation between the two constructs, although additional variables should be considered for explaining the influence of beliefs about intelligence on academic motivation. The findings from the study are discussed in light of contemporary models of achievement motivation and potential educational implications are described.
Morality, Ethics, and Transgression in Edith Wharton's Short Fiction
Creators: name: Ware, Michele
Publisher: name: Ex-centric Narratives: Journal of Anglophone Literature, Culture and Media
Year: 2017

description: This essay examines the recurring motif of transgression in Edith Wharton’s short fiction, which demonstrates the author’s career-long development of an aesthetic that foregrounded the often unresolved conflict between individual morality and the morality of prevailing social convention. Although Wharton clearly explored transgression and its attendant issue of morality in her novels, it is in her short stories that she examines a wider range of morally and ethically challenging situations, particularly those involving sexual transgression—in fidelity, divorce, forbidden desire—and sexual morality. Focusing on two representative short stories—“The Long Run” (1912) and “Roman Fever” (1934)—this essay argues that in Wharton’s short fiction, we can see a fairly radical imagination at work, especially in stories like these, in which Wharton implicitly places value on transgression, aligning herself with those who defy convention, whatever the costs. Such a sensibility reflects Edith Wharton’s understanding that transgression was an essential step in the process of social change. These stories suggest that Wharton saw transgression as an unavoidable force, necessary for breaking out of whatever binds and stifles the human soul: social institutions, internalized and external expectations, custom. Yet in all of her stories of transgressive acts, there is always a return to a moral position, implied if not actual, and based on personal responsibility and ethics. These stories illustrate Wharton’s guides to ethical behavior: responsibility, awareness, knowledge--not appetite.

Revenge and the “New” Americans

Publisher: name: Ex-centric Narratives: Journal of Anglophone Literature, Culture and Media
Year: 2017

description: A persistent theme in American ethnic fiction and film involves an ethnic or immigrant character who dreams of and/or performs an act of violence which goes against the law of the land; on the contrary, it is prescribed by a pre-American law, or unwritten custom. Application of such a pre-American law though engenders a question: why should a new American citizen resort to the dictates of a pre-industrial past rather than to the laws of a modern, well-organized, bureaucratic society? This paper claims that, paradoxically, these acts inspired by a pre-American set of beliefs and attitudes expedite the transition of the immigrant and ethnic into the mainstream and post-ethnicity. Contextualized as part of organized crime, labor politics, predatory capitalism, the myth of the Golden Door these violent acts configure as ethnic but are motivated by the desire of the protagonist to join America and move on to a post-ethnic identity. The author analyzes Anzia Yezierska’s “The Lost Beautifulness” (1920), Harry Mark Petrakis’s “Pericles on 31st Street” (1957), and George Pelecanos’s “The Dead, Their Eyes Implore Us” (2003).

Photographic Plates of Memory: Marian Kołodziej’s Return to the Labyrinth

description: The author discusses the artist’s need to create work representative of his memories of five years in concentration camps in Poland and Germany during the Second World War. Through the poetry and prose of Polish poets Zbigniew Herbert and Adam Zagajewski she explores the artist’s rehabilitative journey to create depictions of his traumatic memories, which began at age seventy-two after a major stroke. Did the artist in fact create an aesthetic in representing the violence and death of the camps? She also analyzes the artist’s late work through an ethical framework, suggesting that in this case the depiction of traumatic memories is art that issues its viewers an ethical mandate to contemplate both the detrimental and potentially rehabilitative effects of rendering violent historical events.

Schindler’s List Revisited
Creators: name: Arouh, Melenia
Publisher: name: Ex-centric Narratives: Journal of Anglophone Literature, Culture and Media
Year: 2017

description: Schindler’s List, directed by Steven Spielberg and released in 1993, recounted the true story of Oskar Schindler, a member of the Nazi party and war profiteer, who saved over a thousand Jews during World War II. Since then, other, likewise mainstream, films dealing with the Holocaust have been released, provoking some critical discussion but very little compared to the heated debate that followed the release of Spielberg’s film. Leaving aside this initial skeptical reaction, this paper studies the film’s moral content and our engagement with it. Specifically, the examination of Schindler’s List in this paper notes the moral character of the film, and the way it touches upon the audience’s moral consciousness. First, the production of this movie is discussed, and the intentions of the director are outlined as the point of origin of the text’s narrative ethics. Second, the way in which the film presents its story is considered, and especially the moral limits that seem to inform certain narrative and aesthetic choices. Third, the examination turns to the way in which the representation of children in the film functions as a moral catalyst for the audience’s response. It is concluded that, Schindler’s List is a film with an intense moral message, that requests the audience’s moral attention through its formal and thematic composition.
