Stein-Rule Estimation under an Extended Balanced Loss Function
No full textThis paper extends the balanced loss function to a more general set
up. The ordinary least squares and Stein-rule estimators are exposed to
this general loss function with quadratic loss structure in a linear regression
model. Their risks are derived when the disturbances in the linear regression
model are not necessarily normally distributed. The dominance of ordinary
least squares and Stein-rule estimators over each other and the effect of
departure from normality assumption of disturbances on the risk property
is studied
Simultaneous Prediction of Actual and Average Values of Study Variable Using Stein-rule Estimators
No full textThe simultaneous prediction of average and actual values of study variable in a linear regression model is considered in this paper. Generally, either of the ordinary least squares estimator or Stein-rule estimators are employed for the construction of predictors for the simultaneous prediction. A linear combination of ordinary least squares and Stein-rule predictors are utilized in this paper to construct an improved predictors. Their efficiency properties are derived using the small disturbance asymptotic theory and dominance conditions for the superiority of predictors over each other are analyzed

A peça-paisagem de Gertrude Stein: traduzindo Four Saints in Three Acts
No full textDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Estudos da Tradução, Florianópolis, 2015.Esta pesquisa foi realizada pensando na tradução da peça-paisagem, peça-ópera, Four Saints in Three Acts, escrita em 1927, pela autora norte-americana Gertrude Stein (1874-1946). A peça foi elaborada musicalmente por Virgil Garnett Thomson (1896 ? 1989), crítico e compositor americano que, após estabelecer uma amizade com Stein, pediu se ela poderia escrever um libreto, uma ópera, para que ele fizesse o arranjo musical. Four Saints, publicada na obra Last Operas and Plays (1949), inicia na página 440 e termina na página 480. Nesta pesquisa serão apresentadas duas traduções para o português brasileiro das primeiras seis páginas da peça ? páginas 440 a 445 ? escrita em língua inglesa. Uma das traduções teve o foco mais literal, buscando manter o significado das palavras; e a outra, considerando as peculiaridades do texto steiniano, teve o foco mais autoral, fazendo uma dosagem entre forma e conteúdo, privilegiando ambos. A peça foi apresentada pela primeira vez em 1934 no Wadsworth Atheneum museum, em Hartford, Connecticut, nos Estados Unidos. Duas semanas depois foi para a Broadway; também foi comentada em diversas colunas de jornais e em rádios, levando à fama uma nova forma de teatro.Abstract : This research was conducted considering the translation of the play-landscape, play-opera, Four Saints in Three Acts, written in 1927 by American author Gertrude Stein (1874-1946). The play was set to music by Virgil Garnett Thomson (1896 - 1989), American composer and critic who, after establishing a friendship with Stein, asked if she could write a libretto, an opera, for him to do the musical arrangement. Four Saints, published in the work Last Operas and Plays (1949), starts on page 440 and ends on page 480. In this research it will be presented two translations to Brazilian Portuguese of the first six pages of the play - pages 440 to 445. One of the translations had a more literal focus to keep the meaning of words; and the other, considering the steinian text peculiarities, had a more authorial focus, making a mix between form and content, focusing both. The play was first performed in 1934 at the Wadsworth Atheneum museum in Hartford, Connecticut, in the United States. Two weeks later it went to Broadway; it was also commented on several columns of newspapers and radio stations, leading to fame a new form of theater
Edyta Stein i Roman Ingarden -koncepcje człowieka
No full textIn this article the author reconstructs and compares two concepts of man in thoughts of two great phenomenologists – Edith Stein and Roman Ingarden – connectedjoint not only by the intellectual bond but also by great friendship. The paper consists of two parts. First, the author presents Stein’s and Ingarden’s philosophy of man. Suchnotions as: subject, soul, spirit and body, experience, self-experience and activity of will, are shown from two perspectives. By analysing terminology used by both Stein and Ingardenin their works, the author tried to depict an appropriate – according to them –psychophysical constitution of man. While discussing Stein’s concepts, the author demonstratesalso her transition from phenomenology to mystical domain as well as her inspirationof Saint John of the Cross’ and Saint Theresa of Ávila’s works. Ingarden did notenter as firmly as Stein into the mystical domain, yet he opened a path into the Transcendenceby creating a concept of metaphysical qualities
Edyta Stein w pamięci Wrocławia
No full textThe article seeks to explore the role of Edith Stein’s memory in creating the contemporary identity of the city of Wrocław. The author distinguishes between two forms of this memory, that is to say remembrance and symbolic places (lieux de mémoire). The places of remembrance of Edith Stein, who was born in Breslau, are connected with her biography and the time she spend in this city. The symbolic places of the memory of Edith Stein represent the values of her life (such as the European Peace Cross, meticulously analysed by the author). Both forms of memory variously transformed the space of the city in significant landscape
Edyta Stein,córka narodu żydowskiego
No full textThis article discusses the rich relation between Judaism and Christianity, one of the issues addressed by Stein in her intellectual explorations, as well as a matter pivotal in her life. By referring to Stein’s texts, her letters and other documents, as well as a claim made by commentators of her work and life, the author tries to expose numerous falsities and myths that arouse about Stein’s life. Beginning with an overview of Judaic tradition in which Stein grew up, the author then depicts the socio-political situation of Breslau as well as Stein’s family history. Next, C. Rastoin emphasises the moment when Stein recognised the power of Cross and joined the Catholic Church, yet at the same time did not cease to love the Jewish nation or feel a member of it. The last part of the text outlines Israel’s theology as well as a request for Judeo-Christian reconciliation and reciprocal respect
