Koncept "posrnulih muškaraca" u Penny Dreadful
No full textThis paper addresses the concept of “fallen men” during the Victorian era, which has been neglected to some extent due to the attention given to the restrictions placed on women. The analysis focuses on the various types of transgressions committed by the three main protagonists of the television series Penny Dreadful. Since it is neo-Victorian fiction with Gothic and detective elements, the series is an appropriate source for such an analysis. The paper begins by discussing these elements and proceeds to define the concept of the “fallen man” in comparison to his female version. Afterward, it positions the three main characters, Dr. Victor Frankenstein, Dorian Gray, and Sir Malcolm Murray, as “fallen men” because of various acts that are considered transgressive by the highly critical Victorian society. The young scientist Dr. Victor Frankenstein represents transgressions related to a lack of sexual drive and irreligion (atheism). In contrast, the beautiful and wealthy Dorian Gray commits various types of “immoralities,” including unusual sexual acts, displaying homosexual tendencies, and having a relationship with a transgender person. Finally, the third protagonist, Sir Malcolm Murray, fails to fulfill his marital and parental duties, which marks him as “fallen.” The analysis highlights the differences in the transgressions each character commits that classify them as fallen. In this way, it illustrates that both women and men lived under the constraints of Victorian rules and restrictions.Ovaj rad proučava viktorijanski koncept „posrnulog muškarca“ koji se često zanemaruje u usporedbi s konceptom „posrnule žene“. Rad analizira različite vrste prijestupa koje su počinila tri glavna protagonista televizijske serije Penny Dreadful. Serija se može pozicionirati kao neoviktorijanska fikcija koja sadrži gotičke elemente i elemente detektivske fikcije te je zbog toga prikladan izbor za proučavanje ovog koncepta. Rad započinje definicijom neoviktorijanske fikcije. Slijedom toga, definira pojam „posrnulog muškarca“ u usporedbi s njegovom ženskom inačicom. Četvrto poglavlje pozicionira tri glavna muška lika, doktora Victora Frankensteinea, Doriana Graya i Malcolma Murrayja, kao „posrnule muškarce“ zbog ponašanja koje je kritično viktorijansko društvo smatralo „prijestupničkim.“ Mladi znanstvenik doktor Victor Frankenstein zastupa prijestupe vezane uz nedostatak seksualnog nagona i nereligioznosti (ateizma). S druge strane, Dorian Gray se ponaša „nemoralno.“ Odnosno, uživa u seksualnim praksama koje su se u to dobra smatrale transgresivnim, pokazuje homoseksualne sklonosti, te ulazi u vezu s transrodnom osobom. Posljednji se protagonist, Sir Malcolm Murray, može smatrati „posrnulim“ jer nije ispunio svoju bračnu i roditeljsku dužnost. Rad naglašava da se svaki lik može pozicionirati kao „posrnuli“ zbog drugačijeg razloga, odnosno prijestupa. Time ističe kako su žene ali i muškarci živjeli pod pritiskom viktorijanskih normi i pravila ponašanja
The relationship between jealousy, relationship satisfaction and self-esteem
No full textIako su romantični odnosi izvor zadovoljstva, također mogu biti izvor neugodnih osjećaja poput ljubomore. S obzirom da ljubomora može rezultirati raznim negativnim ponašajnim i emocionalnim ishodima, ključno je identificirati različite tipove ljubomore te veze koje imaju sa važnim čimbenicima poput zadovoljstva vezom te osobnim čimbenicima poput samopoštovanja. Naime, samopoštovanje se djelomično razvija kroz društvene interakcije putem procjene značajnih drugih, kao što je primjerice romantični partner. Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je proširenje znanstvenih saznanja o vezi između ljubomore, samopoštovanja i zadovoljstva vezom. U istraživanju je sudjelovalo ukupno 147 sudionika iz Republike Hrvatske dobnog raspona između 18 i 41. Korišteni mjerni instrumenti uključivali su upitnik općih podataka, Multidimenzionalnu skalu ljubomore (Pfeiffer i Wong, 1989), prevedenu od strane Kalebić i suradnika (2000), Skalu zadovoljstva brakom (Ćubela Adorić i Jurević, 2006) te adaptiranu verziju Revidirane skale samoprihvaćanja i samokompetentnosti (Tafarodi i Swann, 2001), koju su autorice Nekić i suradnice (2016) prevele na hrvatski jezik u sklopu svog istraživanja. Rezultati su pokazali da ne postoji značajna povezanost između ljubomore i zadovoljstva vezom. Nadalje, utvrđeno je da postoji značajna negativna povezanost između globalne ljubomore i samopoštovanja te negativna povezanost između podtipova kognitivne i emocionalne ljubomore sa samopoštovanjem. Dakle, sudionici koji su općenito više ljubomorni te pokazuju veću sklonost ka kognitivnoj i emocionalnoj ljubomori, ujedno su imali i niže razine samopoštovanja. Ipak, nije utvrđena značajna povezanost između ponašajne ljubomore i samopoštovanja. Konačno, pokazalo se da samopoštovanje i zadovoljstvo u vezi nisu značajno povezani. Utvrđeni odnosi djelomično su u skladu sa prijašnjim istraživanjima u ovom području, što upućuje na daljnju potrebu za istraživanjem ovih problema na reprezentativnijim uzorcima te ispitivanjem oba partnera, kako bi se donijeli što točniji zaključci o promatranim odnosima.Although romantic relationships are a source of satisfaction in life, they can also be a source of unpleasant emotions such as jealousy. Given that jealousy can result in many negative behavioral and emotional outcomes, it is important to identify different types of jealousy and their connections to important factors like relationship satisfaction and self-esteem. Namely, self-esteem is partially developed through social interactions by evaluations of significant others, like for example romantic partners. The aim of this research was to expand knowlegde about the relationship between jealousy, relationship satisfaction and selfesteem. There was in total 147 participants from Republic of Croatia in this research, in the age range between 18 and 41. Instruments used in this research included a questionnare of general data, Multidimensional scale of jealosy (Pfeiffer i Wong, 1989), translated to croatian by Kalebić and others (2000), Scale of marriage satisfaction (Ćubela Adorić i Jurević, 2006) and adapted version of Revisited Self-Liking and Self-Competence Scale (Tafarodi i Swann, 2001), translated by Nekić and others (2016) as a part of their research. The results showed there was no significant correlation between jealousy and relationship satisfaction. Furthermore, it was concluded that there was a significant negative correlation between global jealousy and self-esteem and a significant negative correlation between subtypes of cognitive and emotional jealousy with self-esteem. Therefore, the participants who had higer levels of global jealousy and a higher tendency toward cognitive and emotional jealousy also had lower levels of self-esteem. However, there was no significant correlation between bihevioral jealousy and self-esteem. Finally, the results showed that there was no significant correlation between relationship satisfaction and self-esteem. Established relations are partially in concordance with some previous research in this area. Therefore, these results show the need to search foward and try to answer the present problems more specifically, by using a more representative sample and by questionning both partners, in order the gain a clearer picture about the relations between jealousy, relationship satisfaction and self-esteem
Digitalisation of higher education: University of Zadar students' experiences with using digital tools during their study
No full textU ovom su radu prikazani rezultati istraživanja o iskustvima studenata s korištenjem tehnologije za potrebe studija. U istraživanju se nastojalo obuhvatiti iskustva studenata/ica prve i druge godine diplomskog studija s korištenjem digitalnih alata prije, tijekom i poslije pandemije. Cilj je bio dobiti širi uvid u iskustva i mišljenja o digitalizaciji obrazovanja, ne fokusirajući se samo na online nastavu već na cjelokupno studijsko iskustvo. Odabrana je kvalitativna metoda polustrukturiranog intervjua. Rezultati istraživanja pokazali su da studenti podržavaju digitalizaciju obrazovanja, no ističu da je važno prepoznati i potencijalne negativne ishode neadekvatne uporabe tehnologije. Neočekivani prelazak u online izvođenje nastave potaknuo je studente na promišljanje mogućnosti koje donosi digitalizacija: postoji sklonost nastavi uživo i ograničenom korištenju tehnologije za obavljanje studijskih obveza.This paper contains research results on students' experiences with technology use in higher education. The intention of the research was to capture the experiences of graduate level students with using digital tools before, during and after the pandemic. The goal was to gain a wider insight into student experiences and opinions about the digitalisation of education, not focusing only on online studying but their entire study experience. Semi-structured one-on-one interview was the selected method. Research results show that students support the digitalisation of education, but point out the importance of recognizing the potential negative outcomes of inadequate technology use. The unexpected switch to online lectures encouraged students to reflect on the possibilities of digitalisation: there is still a preference for in-person lectures and limited use of technology for various study tasks
Calculation of the length of the ship's anchor chain
No full textSidrenje broda jedna je od najvažnijih operacija u manevriranju brodom. Ona ne bi bila moguća bez sidrenog uređaja. Jedan od njegovih sastavnih dijelova je i sidreni lanac. Sidreni lanac povezuje sidro s brodom. On za to vrijeme poprima oblik lančanice. Na njega djeluje sila koja mijenja oblik i duljinu lančanice. U radu je proračunata duljina sidrenog lanca u odnosu na utjecaj sile vjetra. Napravljena su dva modela proračuna kako bi se pokazao način na koji promjena uvjeta utječe na oblik i duljinu lanca. Rezultati su prikazani tablično te je prema njima napravljena grafička aproksimacija sidrenog lanca pomoću parabole. Dobiveni rezultati su prodiskutirani te je na temelju njih donesen zaključak o utjecaju vanjske sile na duljinu sidrenog lanca.Ship anchoring is one of the most important operation in ship maneuvering. It would not be possible without anchoring gear. Anchor chain is one of its components. Anchor chain connects anchor with the ship. It takes the form of catenary. It is subject to the force which changes catenary shape and length. Anchor chain’s length according to the influence of the wind force was calculated in this project. There were made two calculation models to present the way in which the change of conditions affects the anchor chain’s shape and length. The results were presented in tabular form, and they were used to make anchor chain’s graphic approximation with parabola. The obtained results are discussed and the conclusion about the external force influence on the length of the ship’s anchor chain was made
Photographic Opuses of the Brkan Brothers
No full textFotografija se od svoje prve pojave mijenjala u pogledu procesa nastanka i svoje društvene te umjetničke uloge. Kroz proučavanje povijesnog konteksta i tradicije fotografije na prostoru grada Zadra, u radu se izdvaja i pojašnjava važnost djelovanja braće Brkan. Ante i Zvonimir Brkan su obogatili poratnu zadarsku sredinu zasnivanjem fotografskog salona „Čovjek i more“ i svojim fotografskim stvaralaštvom. Problematika rada dvojice braće proučava se u njihovoj sličnosti i različitosti, odnosno jedinstvenosti u izričaju. Kroz prizmu svjetskih utjecaja i osebujnog vlastitog stila sagledava se proces njihova rada i sam izbor sadržaja. U radu se tematski i stilski analizira fotografski opus braće Brkan, izlaganje fotografija na izložbama te se razmatra problem zaštite i čuvanja opusa.Since its first appearance, photography has changed in terms of the process of creation and its social and artistic role. Through the study of the historical context and photographs of tradition in the area of the city of Zadar, the paper highlights and clarifies the importance of the activities of the Brkan brothers. Ante and Zvonimir Brkan enriched the post-war environment in Zadar by founding the photography salon "Man and the Sea" and by their photographic activity. The problem of the work of the two brothers is studied in their similarities and differences and in their uniqueness in expression. The process of their work and the choice of content itself is viewed through the prism of global influences and personal style. The paper analyzes themes and styles of the photographic opuses of the Brkan brothers, the display of photographs at exhibitions, and considers the problem of protecting and preserving the oeuvres
Captured Moments: Everyday Life in Zadar through the Lens of Ante Brkan
No full textMedij fotografije snažno je utjecao na razvoj civilizacije, ljudske kulture i načina života, stoga i na različite znanstvene discipline, metode i teorijske koncepte. Jedno od njih je upravo područje vizualne kulture i medija, odnosno područje vizualne antropologije i etnografije. Brojne su definicije i razumijevanja fotografije kada se ona promatra s različitih znanstvenih stajališta. U ovom radu medij fotografije će se problematizirati na temelju odabranih fotografija Ante Brkana snimljenih od 1950-ih pa sve do kraja 1970-ih godina s kadrovim zadarske svakodnevice uz čiju će se analizu protumačiti definicije fotografije koje su upravo iznjedrile iz teorijskih koncepata i njezinog viđenja kao vizualnog medija. Kritičkom promišljanju i analizi fotografija doprinijeli su različiti kulturni i vizualni antropolozi, znanstvenici, spisatelji, likovni kritičari te teoretičari vizualne kulture uz čija će se razmišljanja i dane fotografske zapise razmotriti pitanja vidljivog i nevidljivog, pitanja odnosa moći, gledatelja i gledanog te pojavu iznova novog prostora za proizvodnju novih značenja unutar fotografskih diskursa. Također, fotografije Ante Brkana će se analizirati unutar okvira nekoliko kriterija i definicija proizašle iz korištene literature te definicije metode etnografije s ciljem razumijevanja fotografije kao vrste etnografije. Cilj rada je odgovoriti na istraživačko pitanje možemo li njegove fotografije definirati etnografskima, odnosno jesu li fotografije Ante Brkana svojevrsne etnografije?The medium of photography has strongly influenced the development of civilization, human culture, and way of life, therefore also various scientific disciplines, methods, and theoretical concepts. One of them is precisely the area of visual culture and media, that is, the area of visual anthropology and ethnography. There are numerous definitions and understandings of photography when it is viewed from different scientific points of view. In this paper, media photographs will be problematized based on selected photographs of Ante Brkan taken from the 1950s until the end of the 1970s with the daily life of the staff in Zadar, with the analysis and interpretation of the definitions of photographs that have just emerged from theoretical concepts and her vision as visual media. Various cultural and visual anthropologists, scientists, writers, art critics, and theoreticians of visual culture contributed to the critical thinking and analysis of photographs, with whose thoughts and given photographic records we will consider the issues of the visible and the invisible, issues of power relations, viewers and viewers, and the emergence of a new space for the production of new meanings within the photographic discourse. Also, the photos of Ante Brkan will be analyzed within the framework of several criteria and definitions derived from the literature used and the definition of the method of ethnography to understand photography as a type of ethnography. The work aims to answer the research question: can we define his photographs as ethnographic, that is, are Ante Brkan's photographs a kind of ethnography
Saint - Simon's and Marx's model of society: comparison of social stratification and the way of social change
No full textU ovome tekstu proučavat i će se dva filozofa i sociologa Karla Marx i Henry de Saint – Simon i njihove teorije i koncepti o društvu. Obojica su nekoliko različitih polja znanosti zadužili svojim idejama, te ideje su imale ogroman utjecaj na mnoga moderna društva. Naglasak u ovom radu biti će stavljen na izgled njihovih društva u cjelini, ali i usporedbu njihovih ideja i klasifikacije njih samih po ideološkoj crti, kako misle do tih društva doći i obaviti će se kratka usporedba dobrih i loših strana njihovih društva. Prilikom prikazivanja usporedbe koristiti će se djela različitih autora kako bi se što nepristranije prikazati slika društva koje stvaraju Saint - Simon i Markx.In this text, two philosophers and sociologists Karl Marx and Henry de Saint-Simon and their theories and concepts about society will be studied. Both of them indebted several different fields of science with their ideas, and these ideas had a huge impact on many modern societies. Emphasis in this paper will be placed on the appearance of their societies as a whole, but also a comparison of their ideas and classification of them according to ideological lines, how they think to reach these societies and a brief comparison of the good and bad sides of their societies will be made. When presenting the comparison, the works of different authors will be used in order to present the image of society created by Saint - Simon and Marx as impartially as possible
The impact of compensation management on reducing employee turnover
No full textZaposlenici su temelj svake organizacije i njenog poslovanja, te u slučaju njihovog odlaska, to sa sobom nosi cijeli niz posljedica i izazova za odjel ljudskih resursa. Fluktuacija ne mora nužno biti negativna pojava, no u slučaju ako je visoka, svakako je ne treba podcijeniti. Neki autori u svojim radovima spominju korelaciju između osobnosti, organizacijske kulture i predanosti s namjerom odlaska, te će se u ovom radu obratiti pozornost na njih kao na prediktore fluktuacije. Učinkovitost organizacije ovisi o stanju i ponašanju zaposlenika određene organizacije. Zadovoljstvo zaposlenika ovisi o primljenoj naknadi, stoga je nezadovoljavajuća naknada jedan od uzroka niske predanosti organizaciji i povećanoj fluktuaciji zaposlenika. Velika fluktuacija uzrokuje loš učinak na organizaciju. Namjera o odlasku može biti uzrokovana i stresom na poslu, preopterećenošću poslom, niskom radnom motivacijom, ali i stilom vođenja. Pri pojavi fluktuacije, važno je, na samom početku, utvrditi uzroke koji su doveli do nje. Jedni od istaknutijih uzroka su kompenazcije i sustav nagrađivanja. Kada je riječ o tome, jasan i pravedan sustav nagrađivanja i kompenzacija, učvrstit će zaposlenikovu predanost organizaciji, povećati radni učinak i učiniti ga zadovoljnijim na radnom mjestu, a na koncu i umanjiti njihovu želju za odlaskom.Employees are the foundation of every organization and its business, and in case of their departure, it brings with it a whole series of consequences and challenges for the human resources department. Fluctuation is not definitely a negative phenomenon, but if it is high, it should certainly not be underestimated. Some authors in their works mention the correlation between personality, organizational culture and commitment with the intention to leave, and this paper will pay attention to them as predictors of turnover. The effectiveness of the organization depends of the status and organizational employee's behavior. Employee's satisfaction depends on the received compensation, therefore unsatisfactory compensation is one of the causes of low commitment to the organization and increased employee turnover. High turnover is bad for the organization. The intention to leave can be caused by work stress, work overload, lack of job motivation, but also by management style. When fluctuation occurs, it is important, at the very beginning, to determine the causes that led to it. One of the more prominent causes is the compensation and reward system. When it comes down to it, a clear and fair reward and compensation system will strengthen the employee's organizational commitment, increase job performance and make them more satisfied at the workplace, and ultimately reduce their desire to leave
Preparing the Patient for Cataract Surgery
No full textperacija katarakte jedan je od najčešćih zahvata koji se izvode u cijelome svijetu. Također je jedan od najstarijih. Uz napredak u tehnikama kirurških zahvata katarakte došlo je i do poboljšanja tehnologije zamjene intraokularne leće. Operacija katarakte može se smatrati jednim od najuspješnijih tretmana u cijeloj medicini. Normalna leća oka je prozirna struktura pričvršćena u svom prirodnom položaju zonularnim vlaknima iz cilijarnog tijela. Leća sadrži kapsulu, epitel leće, korteks i jezgru. Funkcije leće uključuju lom zraka svjetlosti radi fokusiranja jasne slike na mrežnicu i pružanje akomodacije. Katarakta je zamućenje leće koje dovodi do oštećenja vida. Mnoga stanja mogu uzrokovati stvaranje katarakte, a najčešći je faktor starenje. Rizični čimbenici pojave katarakte su korištenje duhanskih proizvoda i izlaganje ultraljubičastom zračenju. Kada katarakta počne znatno ometati vidnu funkciju, operacija je jedina metoda liječenja. Zahvaljujući napretku u kirurškim tehnikama i poboljšanim sigurnosnim profilima, indikacije i prag za operaciju katarakte jasno su se pomaknuli na uklanjanje katarakte u mnogo ranijoj fazi razvoja. Svaki pacijent prije operacije katarakte dužan je uraditi laboratorijske pretrage, Rtg pluća i kompenzirati osnovne bolesti, odnosno primarno kronične bolesti kao što je arterijska hipertenzija, te diabetes melitus.Cataract surgery is one of the most often done treatments worldwide. It is also among the oldest. Along with advancements in cataract surgery techniques, intraocular lens replacement technology has improved. Cataract surgery is one of the most successful treatments in the history of medicine. The normal lens of the eye is a transparent structure linked to the ciliary body by zonular fibers in its original location. A capsule, lens epithelium, cortex, and nucleus make up the lens. The lens's functions include refracting light rays and providing accommodation to focus a clean image on the retina. A cataract is a clouding of the lens that causes vision loss. Cataracts can arise as a result of a variety of situations. However, the most common reason, which is multidimensional, is aging. Tobacco smoking and UV radiation exposure are two preventable risk factors for cataracts. When cataracts begin to seriously impair visual function, cataract surgery is the only option. The reasons and threshold for cataract surgery have clearly switched to eliminating cataracts at a much earlier stage of development, thanks to breakthroughs in surgical techniques and improved safety profiles. Every patient is needed to have laboratory testing, an X-ray of the lungs, and compensation for basic disorders, especially chronic conditions such as arterial hypertension and diabetes mellitus, prior to cataract surgery
Translation of Phrasemes in Youth Language in Novel “Wir Kinder vom Bahnhof Zoo“
No full textPhraseme werden immer häufiger im Fokus der linguistischen Untersuchung gestellt.
