The Negro in the novels of Rene Maran, 1940
No full textThis study of the Negro in the novels of Rene Maran, Frances most prominent contemporary Negro author, is one of several being made at Atlanta University on the Negro in French literature. This attempt to-show how a Negro, the only one ever to receive the Prix Goncourt, portrays his African brothers, is the first American study of Rene Maran's novels. It is hoped that it will be a modest contribution to an almost unexplored field in French literature and that other students of France and her culture will be inspired to make a more extensive study of Rene Maran and his works. The first chapter is devoted to the life of Rene Maran and a discussion of his style and most important works. The second chapter presents the physical characteristics of the Negro as portrayed by Rene' Maran. Emphasis is placed on physical appearance, tribal marks, dress, disease and odors which seem to be especially characteristic of the Negro. The third chapter is devoted to the social characteristics of the Negro with emphasis on home life, food, religion, feasts, and governments. The last chapter will present a summary of the findings of this study. The appendix includes short synopses of each of the novels with Negro characters, and a latter from Monsieur Maran to the writer. aIt is to be regretted that such a small amount of material has been written on Rene Maran. Because of his modesty he has written even less about himself. Biographical material consists principally of Leon Bocquet's "Preface" to le Petit Roi de Chimerie, a fairy story by Rene Maran; le Coeur serre, an autobiography written as a novel; several articles which have appeared in periodicals and the forementioned letter from Monsieur Maran. First editions of all novels, with exception of Le Livre de la brousse, were used. As the latter was unavailable, the second edition (1937) was used. Rene Maran's most important novels on Africa, Batouala, Djouma, Chien de brousse, Le Journal sans date end le Livre de la brousse have been studied. The novelettes Bokorro and Bassarragba have also been used as references but the longer novels have constituted our major interest. Le Petit Roi de Chimerie , though it contains no Negro characters, was quoted because of one excellent example of Rene Maran's style. Less stress has been placed on Le Journal sans date because only one of its characters is a Negro. The writer sincerely appreciates the kindness and help of Rene Maran, whose letter was a source of constant encouragement

A Study on Fashion Design Applying the Image of Rene Magritte’s Works : Focused on Depaysement Technique
No full textThe modern fashion that pursues the personality, freedom, and creativity reflects the stream of time. The combination of art reflecting fashion and period representation technique as the trend of modern fashion for doing away with stereotype suggests various possibility of creation and wakes the aesthetic consciousness of potential human being with various designs. Surrealism that appeared as background provided possibility to develop creative designs on 20C had to pursue the overall awareness about human being by revealing the unconscious world having had under pressure and liberating the human. Especially, Rene Magritte (1898~1967) as the creative of surrealism denied automatism that was abstract representation technique. In addition, he did experience the mysteries of world with making normal from ordinary materials and the world of unique painting as well as paying attention and awaking think from us. The expression of Rene Magritte painting that was affected by Giorgio De Chirico makes to open the perspective of us having stereotype by revealing another hidden world of side of all reality.
The author offering the modern fashion design to match up between clothes and depaysement technique that the author studied and analyzed choosing Rene Magritte who was one of the surrealists.
As way of this study, The author referred like previous literatures, other theses, some books and magazines etc.
This study through theoretical consideration is as below.
First, The author analyzed the depaysement technique that is one of Rene Magritte’s main techniques and the world of his works.
Second, The author studied each feature and distribution to three representation techniques from Rene Magritte’s works along depaysement technique.
Third, The author made total 8 clothes applying main concept from image of Rene Magritte’s works.
These are result through theoretical studies.
First, The author have known that Rene Magritte among surrealism artists suggests the possibility of creative think with free arrangement each ordinary object and realistic through arts.
Second, about depaysement technique, main representation technique of Rene Magritte’s works, The author have known to be divided three ways so as the modulation of space, the combination of conflicting image, the transform and change of object.
Third, The author have suggested some examples which are variety and creative modern fashion design through expressive classification of Rene Magritte’s works.
The result that the author got from being made works based on these ideas is as below.
First, The author have confirmed the mind of artist and the expression of subconscious from Rene Magritte who wanted to prove depaysement technique or ideology of surrealism rather than just particular image with matching up fashion in his works.
Second, The author have presented new optical modeling space as being expressed the three-dimensional costume design that combines between body and two-dimensional painting when Rene Magritte’s works spread out for fashion design. Moreover, The author have known that the world of Rene Magritte’s works propose the creative idea to study of all-time modern fashion design and to be possible application to creative and differentiated image source due to graft the art onto the fashion.
Third, The author have known that classified images along three expression ways called the modulation of space, the combination of conflicting image, the transform and change of object in depaysement technique of Rene Magritte’s works suggest possibly spreading out various designs through combination with clothes.
Fourth, The author have known that depaysement which is one of surrealism’s representation technique can expend the width of imagination as being applied clothes by various view and practical use in materials or design elements. For that reason, it built the unique image applying realistic and ordinary objects inside Rene Magritte’s works.
Fifth, The author have known Digital Textile Printing (DTP) technique as the element of practical design is very well matching up expressing the image of Rene Magritte’s works to clothes.;개성과 자유, 독창적인 창의성을 추구하는 현대 패션은 시대적인 흐름과 예술을 반영한다. 패션과 시대적인 표현기법을 반영하는 예술의 결합은 고정된 관념을 탈피하기 위한 현대 패션의 트렌드로 다양한 디자인과 함께 잠재된 인간의 미의식을 일깨우고 다양한 창작의 가능성을 제시한다.
창의적 디자인의 개발에 가능성을 준 시대적 배경으로 등장한 초현실주의는 20C에 접어들면서 인간을 해방시키고 억압되어 왔던 무의식의 세계를 밝힘으로써 인간에 대한 총체적 인식을 추구하고자 했다. 특히 초현실주의 작가로서 르네 마그리트(Rene Magritte, 1898~1967)는 추상적인 표현기법인 자동 기술 법을 부정하고 일상적의 소재를 통한 평범하고 독특한 회화의 세계를 구축하면서 우리의 관심을 집중시키고 사고를 일깨워 신비의 세계를 경험하게 하였다. 르네 마그리트 회화의 데페이즈망 기법의 표현은 모든 현실이면의 다른 숨겨진 세계를 드러냄으로써 고정 관념에 익숙한 우리의 시각을 개방시켜준다.
이에 본 연구는 초현실주의 대표 작가 중 르네 마그리트를 선정하여 그의 회화들 중 데페이즈망 기법을 연구, 분석하고 이를 의상에 접목하여 현대적인 패션디자인으로 제안하는데 그 목적이 있다. 본 연구의 방법으로는 선행 연구된 문헌자료와 국내외 연구 논문과 서적, 정기간행물, 학회지, 인터넷 자료를 활용하였다.
이론적 고찰을 통한 본 연구의 내용으로는 첫째, 초현실주의 화가인 르네 마그리트의 작품세계와 그의 대표적인 표현기법중 하나인 데페이즈망 기법을 분석하였다. 둘째, 데페이즈망 기법에 따라 르네 마그리트의 회화를 세 가지의 표현적 기법으로 분류하고 각각의 특징을 연구하였다. 셋째, 르네 마그리트 회화의 이미지를 주요 모티브로 응용하여 총 8벌의 작품을 제작하였다.
이론적 연구를 통해 얻은 결과는 다음과 같다.
첫째, 초현실주의의 예술을 한 화가들 중 르네 마그리트는 회화를 통해 사실적이고 일상적인 사물들 간의 자유로운 배치가 창조적인 사고의 가능성을 제시하고 있음을 알 수 있었다.
둘째, 르네 마그리트 회화의 주요 표현기법인 데페이즈망 기법은 크게 공간의 변조, 모순된 이미지의 결합, 물체의 변형과 변화의 세 가지 방법으로 분류됨을 알 수 있었다.
셋째, 르네 마그리트 회화의 표현적 분류에 따라 다양하고 창의적인 현재 패션디자인의 사례를 제시할 수 있었다.
이를 토대로 제작된 작품을 통해 얻은 결론은 다음과 같다.
첫째, 르네 마그리트 회화의 패션과의 접목은 특정 이미지 자체보다는 초현실주의의 이념이나 데페이즈망 기법을 보여주고자 했던 르네 마그리트의 작가 정신과 잠재된 의식의 표출을 확인할 수 있었다.
둘째, 르네 마그리트 회화의 조형성이 패션 디자인에 전개될 때 평면적인 회화 작품이 인체와 결합되어 새로운 디자인이 창출되고 회화와는 다른 입체적인 의상디자인으로 표출됨으로써 새로운 시각적 조형 공간을 표현할 수 있었다. 따라서 르네 마그리트의 회화가 갖고 있는 작품세계는 시대를 초월하는 현대 패션 디자이너의 연구에 독창적인 아이디어를 제시하고 예술과 패션의 만남으로 서로 접목되어 창의적이고 차별화된 이미지 소스로 응용 가능성이 있음을 알 수 있었다.
셋째, 르네 마그리트 회화에서 데페이즈망 기법의 공간의 변조, 모순된 이미지의 결합, 물체의 변형과 변화라는 세 가지 표현기법에 따라 분류된 이미지는 의상과의 결합을 통해 다양한 디자인 전개의 제시가 가능함을 알 수 있었다.
넷째, 초현실주의의 표현 기법 중 하나인 데페이즈망 기법이 르네 마그리트 회화만의 현실적이고 일상적인 사물들을 소재로 응용한 독특한 이미지를 구축하여 이를 통한 작품들이 여러 각도로 의상에 응용되고 소재나 디자인적 요소의 다양한 활용으로 상상력의 폭을 넓힐 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 다섯째, 실용적 디자인의 활용 요소로 디지털 텍스타일 프린팅(DTP)기법이 르네 마그리트 회화의 이미지를 의상으로 표현하기에 매우 적합하다는 것을 알 수 있었다.Ⅰ. 서론 1

ABSTRACT 11
PET/CT and MR imaging biomarker of lipid-rich plaques using [(64)Cu]-labeled scavenger receptor (CD68-Fc)
No full textContinued uptake of modified low-density lipoproteins (LDL) by the scavenger receptor, CD68, of activated macrophages is a crucial process in the development of atherosclerotic plaques and leads to the formation of foam cells. Eight-weeks-old male Apolipoprotein E-deficient (ApoE(-/-)) mice (n=6) were fed a high-fat diet for 12 weeks. C57BL/6J wildtype (WT) mice served as controls (n=6). Positron emission tomography (PET) with an acquisition time of 1800s (NanoPET/CT scanner; Mediso, Hungary & Bioscan, USA) was carried out 24h after intravenous tail vein administration of 50µl (64)Cu-CD68-Fc (~20-30µg labeled protein/mouse containing approximately 10-12MBq (64)Cu-CD68-Fc per mouse). Three days after PET/CT, all mice received an intravenous administration of 0.2 mmol/kg body weight of a gadolinium-based elastin-binding contrast agent to assess plaque burden and vessel wall remodeling. Two hours after injection, mice were imaged in a 3T clinical MR scanner (Philips Healthcare, Best, NL) using a dedicated single loop surface coil (23mm). Enhanced (64)Cu-CD68-Fc uptake was found in the aortic arches of ApoE(-/-) compared to WT mice (ApoE(-/-) mice:10.5±1.5Bq/cm³ vs. WT mice: 2.1±0.3Bq/cm³; P=0.002). Higher gadolinium-based elastin-binding contrast agent uptake was also detected in the aortic arch of ApoE(-/-) compared to WT mice using R(1) maps (R(1)=1.47±0.06 s(-1) vs. 0.92±0.05 s(-1); P <0.001). Radiolabeled scavenger receptor ((64)Cu-CD68-Fc) may help to target foam cell rich plaques with high content of oxidized LDL. This novel imaging biomarker tool may have potential to identify unstable plaques and for risk stratification.</p

Program clarification, design, and plan for evaluation of a women's empowerment program within a church setting
No full textThis dissertation focuses on the process of clarifying, designing and planning for the evaluation of a Women’s Empowerment Program for individuals who were members of, or affiliated with, a church in an urban community and were interested in self-improvement and growth. The program had been implemented initially by the First Lady of the church (the pastor’s wife). She had requested this evaluation process to assess the needs of the participants and to re-design the program. Maher’s (2000) program planning and evaluation framework was used to complete this process. Literature concerning working with African-American/Latina women and collaboration with faith-based organizations informed the design for the program. This dissertation was conducted with the intent to benefit the specific population of women involved in the program, to contribute to the literature, and to expand knowledge concerning mental health interventions in faith based organizations. Its intention was also to model reaching out to the community for resources in the treatment of diverse populations. Maher’s program planning and evaluation framework consists of four phases: clarification, design, implementation and evaluation. The implementation phase was beyond the scope of this dissertation but an evaluation plan was developed to be utilized during a future implementation. During the Clarification Phase, an assessment of the women’s needs and the relevant context was conducted. Results of the needs assessment revealed that women at the church had difficulties in the areas of (a) emotion-regulation; (b) problem-solving; (c) communication; and (d) spiritual growth, which had an impact on their daily living. The program was re-designed based on the needs identified in the Clarification Phase. The program was entitled the Women’s Empowerment Program and consisted of iii a monthly group designed to teach women skills to improve the identified needs. Following the program design, a plan for evaluation was created in order to provide a documented process that would lead to determining whether the program had added value and benefited the participants. Constraints of the dissertation are noted and recommendations are provided for future implementation and evaluation of the program. Implications for partnerships between faith-based organizations and mental health professionals are also provided.Psy. D.Includes bibliographical referencesby Danielle Rene Narkau
