The relationship between Ford, Kipling, Conan Doyle, Wells and British propaganda of the First World War
No full textPhDThis thesis resituates the war-writing of Ford Madox Ford, Rudyard Kipling, Arthur
Conan Doyle and H.G. Wells in relation to official British propaganda
produced during the First World War. Examining these authors' institutional
connections with propaganda that was authorised by the British government locates
some of their texts within a network of materials that were deployed to justify
Britain's involvenlent in the war. The British government, via the War Propaganda
Bureau, approached major literary figures to assist in its plan to compete
vigorously with Germany to win American support. Positioning Ford's condemnation
of Prussian culture within this institutional context reveals that his officially
commissioned books functioned as a part of the larger yet-covert government
project to influence American intellectual opinion. Although wary that Kipling's
chauvinism might offend some readers, the British government reprinted and
distributed his denunciations of the 'Hun'. Kipling was given access to censored
letters from Indian soldiers in order to assist him in depicting the Imperial forces as
united. The result, The Eyes of Asia (1918), was a set of fictional texts by Indian
soldiers celebrating French and English civilisation in contrast to German barbarism.
In addition to official propaganda, these authors produced pro-war stories, poems, and
articles independent of direct government commission. Conan Doyle's formal call for
men to volunteer to defend their country, and his public denunciations of German
atrocities, were followed by his recruitment of Sherlock Holmes to repel a possible
German invasion ("His Last Bow" (1917)). Adding to his support for the war in his
journalism and war-time fiction, Wells was appointed the Head of Enemy Propaganda
for the newly formed Ministry of Information. He resigned almost immediately
following disagreements over government strategy. This project situates historically
and examines critically these authors' differing roles in relation to British propaganda
efforts during the First World War

Tra razionalismo e irrazionalismo: l’ombra della Massoneria su Conan Doyle e Sherlock Holmes
No full textThis paper deals with the relation between the works of Conan Doyle (especially the Sherlockian Canon) and Freemasonry. In the article the Masonic experience of Conan Doyle is described, as well as the Masonic references in his literary works. Both the life and the work of the Scottish author indicate that in Doyle rational and irrational aspects coexist; if we compare this coexistence with the well-known ‘double soul’ of Freemasonry (due to its Enlightenment heritage and its hermetic and esoteric origins), we can hypothesize that the frequentation of Masonic Lodges should be the key to interpreting this apparent discrepancy in Doyle’s thought
Redesigning the home buying process: A socially engaging experience for young adults
No full textThe banking industry has been experiencing radical change for the last years (Wingard, n.d.). Due to digitalisation a new type of user has arisen. This user is characterised by always being connected while operating on multiple devices. This segment likes to be informed and expects answers, immediacy and transparency. They compare options before making important decisions and they are demanding with the companies they interact with (Rowe, 2019). To operate in this environment, where customers demand proximity, quality and transparency, Banc Sabadell has summarised its strengths in the following strategy “Estar donde estés” (To be where you are). This strategy aims to create a user-centered mindset, creating excellent services that show social responsibility and transparency. All of that will result in a long-term relationship with its customers (Quienes Somos, 2015). Banc Sabadell, with 135 years of history, is one of the largest banking groups in Spain, with international presence (Quienes Somos, 2015). For Banc Sabadell, mortgage loans are one of the products that generate the greatest customer loyalty and commercial margin. And for its customers, buying a house is one of the biggest milestones in their lives. This project is born from the gap identified in which the strategy of Banc Sabadell is not sufficiently perceived in the home buying process. In general, the process of buying a house or getting information about the different steps is most of the time a hassle for the users (Parrin, 2019). This project aims to provide a tangible strategy for Banc Sabadell to increase customer engagement while offering a smooth and remarkable home buying process. Through user research, this project explores the user needs, behaviours and expectations throughout the home buying process. A need is identified to offer a smooth and socially engaging home buying process to young adults which allows them and their relatives to feel reassured and experience the process together. As a result, Doyle is borned. Doyle is a mobile service application that offers adults independence in the purchasing process through providing the tools and information that users need. As part of this strategy, other three elements that play an important role are also proposed.Strategic Product Desig
