BrandO. 2004
No full textKlassische Brände stellen für die Feuerwehr Situationen dar, deren Beherrschung in der Ausbildung umfassend behandelt und durch spätere regelmäßige Übungen vertieft wird. Immer häufiger treten jedoch Situationen auf, die durch ihr atomares, biologisches oder chemisches Gefahrenpotenzial weitreichende Auswirkungen haben können. Da sie "außergewöhnlich" sind, ist es sehr schwierig, die einzelne Situation in Übungen exakt nachzustellen. Allein auf das Improvisationstalent der Feuerwehren zu vertrauen, reicht vor dem Hintergrund der Gefahren, die mit diesen Situationen verbunden sind, nicht aus. BrandO. 2004 betrachtet Gefahrenlagen aus unterschiedlichen Perspektiven. Neben übergreifenden Aspekten wie Behördenunterstützung und Öffentlichkeitsarbeit werden Situationen, die mit der Freisetzung chemischer Stoffe, biologischen Gefahren wie Tierseuchen sowie Gefahren durch Explosivkörper (z. B. "Dirty Bombs") verknüpft sind, diskutiert. Die Veranstaltung ist bereits der fünfte Beitrag der Fachtagungsreihe "BrandO.", die von Fraunhofer UMSICHT gemeinsam mit dem Referat 10 "Umweltschutz" der vfdb veranstaltet wird
5 Jahre BrandO. Die Tagungsbände 1999 - 2004. CD-ROM
No full textAufgabe der Feuerwehren ist es Gefahren für Menschen, Umwelt und Sachwerte abzuwehren. Die Gefahrenabwehr ist dabei längst nicht mehr auf die Brandbekämpfung beschränkt. Vielmehr gilt es, bedingt durch technische und gesellschaftliche Entwicklungen, sich auf neue und nicht immer vollständig planbare Situationen einzustellen. Ob bedingt durch den Unfall eines Kesselwagens der Bundesbahn, Tierseuchen, »Milzbrandbriefe« oder Brandfälle in biologischen Laboratorien, die Anforderungen an die Aus- und Fortbildung der Rettungskräfte nehmen rapide zu. Seit 1999 veranstaltet Fraunhofer UMSICHT zusammen mit dem Referat 10 »Umweltschutz« der vfdb die Fachtagungsreihe »BrandO.®« um Feuerwehren praktische Informationen für nicht alltägliche Einsatzlagen zu vermitteln. Die Referenten sind Praktiker aus Feuerwehren und unterschiedlichen Fachbehörden und berichten zum größten Teil von eigenen (Einsatz-) Erfahrungen und Konzepten. Das 5 jährige Jubiläum war für uns Anlass alle Referate der Tagungsbände 1999-2004 auf einer CD zusammenzufassen und für Sie zugänglich zu machen

Public bodies, private moments : method acting and American cinema in the 1950s
No full textThe thesis deals with two central issues:
a) the construction of a framework for the study of film acting which places
performance in a cultural context
b) the cultural significance of Method acting during the 1950s with specific
reference to American cinema of the period
The first chapter considers the ways in which the voice and body in film acting are made
meaningful in the context of beliefs about acting and personal identity. The chapter also
proposes ways for situating the practical activity of film acting in a context of cultural
production.
The remaining chapters study the cultural significance of Method acting through
separate analyses of the Method technique, style, representation of gender, and image of
star performance. Readings of the Method technique and style are placed in the context of
a `culture of personality', in which the significance of the Method was produced in the
ways that acting signified beliefs about personal identity. The discussion of the Method
style is then developed in the analysis of the ways in which the style was used in film
melodramas to represent the gendered anxieties of the rebel hero. Finally, Marlon
Brando's image and performances are studied for how the actor personified the meaning
of the Method. Together, technique, style, gender representation, and stardom, are
studied as various aspects of what is called the Method discourse
Il dilemma fra principio di legalità e nuova giustizia sociale in Piero Calamandrei
No full textThe author examines Piero Calamandrei's attempt to defend the principle of legality and the certainty of law in a period in which the fascist regime violated the most basic rights, while maintaining an apparent legality. If in the conference held in Florence in 1940 Calamandrei appealed to the value of legality as the only bulwark to oppose the theories of free law, in the notes on the concept of legality, written during his exile in the sky in Umbria during the winter of 1943-1944 and preserved in the Piero Calamandrei archive at the Historical Archive Library, his yearning for social justice and his search for a law that was no longer an instrument of the regime's violence also shines through
Marlon Brando: The "young rebel" and the "godfather" : The figures of an actor-author
No full textOrientador: Marcelo Ramos LazzarattoDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Instituto de ArtesResumo: Essa dissertação teve como objetivo estudar os procedimentos técnicos que envolvem o trabalho a interpretação para cinema. Para isso, tivemos como objeto de pesquisa a filmografia do ator Marlon Brando (1924 ¿ 2004), com enfoque nos filmes "Uma Rua Chamada Pecado" (Elia Kazan, 1951), "Sindicato de Ladrões" (Elia Kazan, 1954), "A Face Oculta" (Marlon Brando, 1961), "O Grande Motim" (Lewis Milestone, 1962), "O Poderoso Chefão" (Francis Ford Coppola, 1972) e "Apocalipse Now" (Francis Ford Coppola, 1979). Verificamos, ao longo desses filmes, os procedimentos de construção de cena e personagens apoiados nos escritos de Stella Adler (2002) e Constantin Stanislavski (2001) sobre o trabalho do ator, com enfoque nas ações físicas no uso da imaginação e observação. Além disso, analisamos os temas e personagens recorrentes na filmografia de Brando identificando uma padronização de seu aparecimento na tela. Tal padrão está intimamente ligado à própria personalidade do ator e chega em duas figuras essenciais: o "jovem rebelde", presente nos filmes dos anos 1950 e caracterizado por sua postura contra o sistema vigente e o "padrinho", consolidado nas obras da década de 1970, marcado por sua relação de mentor de um personagem ou grupo de personagens. Para investigarmos essa padronização, utilizamos o conceito de ator-autor proposto por Patrick McGuiligan (1975) e desenvolvido por Luc Moullet (1993) e Pedro Maciel Guimarães (2012), com o qual se analisa a filmografia de um ator em busca de aspectos formais e temáticos que o possam nomeá-lo como co-autor de um filmeAbstract: This dissertation aim was studying the technical procedures of acting in cinema. In order to do this, we took as research material the filmography of the actor Marlon Brando (1924 ¿ 2004), focusing in the films "A Streetcar Named Desire" (Elia Kazan, 1951), "On The Waterfront" (Elia Kazan, 1954), "One-Eyed Jacks" (Marlon Brando, 1961), "Moutiny on the Bouty" (Lewis Milestone, 1962), "The Godfather" (Francis Ford Coppola, 1972) and "Apocalipse Now" (Francis Ford Coppola, 1979). Through those movies, we verified the procedures of creating a scene and a character supported by the writings of Stella Adler (2002) and Constantin Stanislavski (2001) on acting, focusing on physical actions, imagination and observation. Furthermore, we analysed the recurrent themes and characters on Brando¿s filmography investigating a pattern in his appearance on screen which is linked with the personality of the actor himself. Thus, we find two essential figures, the "young rebel", in the movies of the 1950s and characterized by his position against the hegemonic system, and the "godfather", consolidated in the 1970s, characterized by his relation as a mentor of a character or a group of characters. To investigate this standardization, we used the concept of the actor-author, proposed by Patrick McGuiligan (1975) and further developed by Luc Moullet (1993) and Pedro Maciel Guimarães (2012), in which one analyses an actor¿s filmography searching thematic and formal aspects that can categorize the actor as a co-author of a filmMestradoTeatro, Dança e PerformanceMestre em Artes da Cen
