    Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Letras/Inglês e Literatura Correspondente, Florianópolis, 2007The aim of the present study is to analyse how issues of Albanian national identity are portrayed in Ismail Kadaré's novel Broken April (Prilli i Thyer), and how such features have been appropriated and translated onto the screen into a Northeastern Brazilian context. I depart from the premise that, even though Brazilian elements are indeed shown in the film, the non existence of the Kanun in Brazil, and the use of narrative techniques different from the ones employed in the novel render the story of the blood feuds in the film more universal than the genuinely Albanian reality depicted in the novel. In sum, the appropriation transcends the Albanian reality into a universal context, showing, at the same time, elements which are typical of the Brazilian culture.O objetivo do presente estudo é analisar como questões sobre a identidade nacional Albanesa são retratadas no romance Abril Despedaçado (Prilli i Thyer), de Ismail Kadaré, e como tais questões foram apropriadas e traduzidas para a tela num contexto Nordestino-Brasileiro. O estudo parte do princípio que, embora elementos tipicamente Brasileiros sejam mostrados no filme, a não existência do Kanun no Brasil, e o uso de técnicas narrativas diferentes das empregadas no romance ajudam a deixar a história das brigas de família no filme com um aspecto mais universal do que a realidade genuinamente Albanesa representada na romance. Em suma, a apropriação transcende a realidade Albanesa para um contexto mais universal, sem deixar de mostrar também elementos típicos da cultura Brasileira

    Variations on the Author

    No full text
    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    DensiProbe: a hybrid laboratory in-situ testing for determining field density / Badrul Nizam Ismail and Nor Hafizah Hanis Abdullah

    No full text
    DensiProbe is equipment that had been invented, as a mean to estimate the in-situ density of a fill, based on some blows from light dynamic penetration test (Mackintosh or JKR Probe). DensiProbe is a combination of light dynamic penetrometer and custom- made mould. The soil samples were compacted in the custom-made mould, and penetration test was conducted for that soil. The compaction and penetration test was repeated for different compaction effort, thus producing different density. From these results, the number of blows versus density curve is developed. Using this curve, penetration test was conducted at the site, and in-situ density can be estimated. This product had won Silver Medal in the International Penang Invention, Innovation and Design (PHD) 2019 and had been published in the 5th GEGEU International Research Seminar 2018. The members involved in this project are Badrul Nizam Ismail, Anas Ibrahim (Dr.), Muhammad Hafeez Osman, Rozaini Ramli and Nor Hafizah Hanis Abdullah

    A New Trajectory Similarity Measure for GPS Data

    No full text
    We present a new algorithm for measuring the similarity between trajectories, and in particular between GPS traces. We call this new similarity measure the Merge Distance (MD). Our approach is robust against subsampling and supersampling. We perform experiments to compare this new similarity measure with the two main approaches that have been used so far: Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) and the Euclidean distance. © 2015 ACM.Anas Ismail was supported by KAUST base fundin

    Ismail Fethi\'s Views on Spirit and Morality

    No full text
    Ismail Fethi'nin Ruh ve Ahlâk'la ilgili Görüsleri isimli bu çalısmada, daha önce hakkında herhangi bir çalısmanın yapılmadıgını tespit ettigimiz Ismail Fethi'nin ruh ve ahlâkla ilgili görüsleri ele alınarak, müellifin bu görüsleri felsefe açısından degerlendirilmeye çalısılmıstır. Müellifin ruh görüsü zihin felsefesi, ahlâk görüsü ise ahlâk felsefesi çerçevesinde ele alınmıstır. Ruh ile ilgili görüslerinde Ismail Fethi, dualist bakıs açısına sahip oldugundan, onun bu noktadaki görüsleri önde gelen dualist filozoflarla karsılastırmalı olarak ele alınmıstır. Dualistik ruh anlayısının problemlerine deginilerek Ismail Fethi'nin ruh görüsünün problemleri belirlenmistir. Ayrıca ahlâk görüsünde tasavvufî bakıs açısına sahip oldugunu tespit ettigimiz müellifin ahlâk görüsü önce Osmanlı ahlâk düsüncesi içinde sonra da tasavvufî ahlâk içindeki yeri tespit edilmeye çalısılmıstır. Bu yöntemle ele aldıgımız görüslerinde müellifin bilhassa ruh konusunda kendinden önceki düsünürlerden etkilenmis oldugunu, günümüzdeki bilimsel ve felsefî verilerle yer yer ters düstügünü söyleyebiliriz. Ahlâk görüsünde ise belirli bir sistem ortaya koymaktan ziyade bireysel ahlâk konularına deginerek ruh- beden ayrımını öngören ruh görüsüne paralel, ruhun tezkiyesi konusu dısına pek çıkmamıstır. Bu itibarla çalısmamızın niteligi Ismail Fethi nezdinde yeni ve orjinal fikirler ortaya çıkarmaktan çok, bilinmeyen bir düsünürün fikirlerinin degerlendirilmesi ve düsünce dünyamıza kazandırılması olarak özetlenebilir.In this study, namely \"Ismail Fethi\'s Views on Spirit and Morality\", Ismail Fethi\'s views regarding spirit and morality, which we determined that have not been studied before, are discussed and those views of the author are attempted to be evaluated from the point of philosophy. The authors\' view of spirit is examined in the frame of mind philosophy, while his view of morality is examined in the frame of moral philosophy. Since, in his views about spirit Ismail Fethi adopts dualistic approach, his views on that subject are compared with the primary dualistic philosophers\'. The problems of dualistic spirit concept are mentioned and the problems of Ismail Fethi\'s view of spirit are pointed out. Moreover, as we identified that regarding his view of morality the author adopts sufi perspective, the position of his moral view in the Ottoman moral thought and in the sufi morality is tried to be determined. We can say that in his views, which we examined with the method depicted above, regarding his view of spirit, in particular, the author is affected from the scholars before him. We can also say that in some aspects these views contradict with the contemporary scientific and philosophic findings. About his view of morality, it can be said that rather than composing a certain system, he mentioned more on the individual morality matters. In parallel with the view of spirit which presumes spritbody distinction, he barely went beyond the matter of purification of the soul. Thus, rather than revealing Ismail Fethi\'s new and original thoughts, the character of our study can be summarized as an evaluation of the thoughts of an unknown scholar and bringing his contribution in our contemporary thought
