Viktor Franz Freiherr von Andrian-Werburg
Get PDFViktor Franz Freiherr von Andrian-Werburg (1813-1858) was and still is primarily known as the author of Österreich und dessen Zukunft, the most important programmatic brochure of the estatist opposition in the late Vormärz. But it is almost unknown, that he kept a diary for most of his adult life. These diaries are now presented in a scholarly edition.
Between the first entry of 20 October 1839 and the last surviving entry of 10 March 1858 lie 19 years which transformed Andrian from a young subordinate public servant in Northern Italy, Istria and Vienna to the idol of the Vormärz opposition, from a respected member and vice-president of the National Assembly in Frankfurt and German envoy in London to the proscribed demolisher of the pre-revolutionary paradise, from the advisor of the Austrian politicians in the years past 1849 to the member of the boards of capitalist railway companies in the 1850s. Throughout this whole time, Andrian saw himself as an unrecognized genius who could have rescued society from the oppression and stagnancy of the Vormärz and from the chaos of the revolution and lead it towards a better future. During all these years, the diaries show a mixture of private and public events. Reflections on family, friends, and personal developments are blended with statements and reflections on politics and policy and Andrian's own role in public life. While focus and denseness of the entries change along with Andrian's private and political situation, at center stage is always the interest in the developments in Austria and her future constitution in close connection with his personal conditions. It is this interaction between public interest and private experience that make the Andrian diaries one of the most impressive private sources on Austrian history from the Vormärz through the revolutionary years of 1848/49 well into the last years of the Neoabsolutism.
Narratives about financial problems and strategies for a solution, for example through a rich marriage, alternate with analyses of internal and foreign politics and plans on the re-creation of Austria. Phases of active political involvement change with periods of voluntary and enforced retreat. Therefore, there are entries on discussions with leading politicians and court dignitaries and on audiences with Emperor Francis Joseph as well as accounts of journeys from Helgoland to Rome, from the French Atlantic coast to the South of Egypt. But the central aspect is always the interplay between private experience and public influence.
Viktor Andrian felt to be a born leader, not a subordinate, and believed that he could wait for the moment when he was called to lead. Therefore he remained, with the exception of the revolutionary period of 1848/49 when he got actively involved in politics, an observer, adviser and critic at the fringes, waiting for the moment when the reins of power would fall to him. Although he realized in his later years that this was an illusion, Andrian was complacent with his personal development: "Thank God, I never had to blame myself for wicked, vicious things."
This edition in three volumes contains the annotated diary entries, an introduction on Viktor Andrian's life and works, an account of the history of the diaries, and, for the first time, a complete listing of Andrian's publications. Numerous excerpts from Andrian's preserved correspondence in the commentary complement and broaden the diaries. An annotated index refers to more than 2.800 persons mentioned in the entries.Viktor Franz Freiherr von Andrian-Werburg (1813-1858) war und ist vor allem als Autor der bedeutendsten Programmschrift der ständischen Opposition des späten Vormärz, Österreich und dessen Zukunft bekannt. Kaum bekannt ist, dass er Zeit seines erwachsenen Lebens Tagebuch geführt hat. Nunmehr liegen seine gesamten erhaltenen Tagebücher in einer wissenschaftlichen Edition vor.
Zwischen dem ersten Eintrag vom 20. Oktober 1839 bis zum letzten erhaltenen Eintrag liegen 19 Jahre, die Andrian vom jungen subalternen Beamten in Norditalien, Istrien und Wien zum Idol der vormärzlichen Opposition, vom geachteten Abgeordneten und Vizepräsidenten der Frankfurter Nationalversammlung und deutschen Reichsgesandten in London zum geächteten Zerstörer des vorrevolutionären Paradieses, vom Berater österreichischer Politiker der Jahre nach 1849 zum Verwaltungsrat kapitalistischer Eisenbahngesellschaften der 1850er Jahre machten. Dabei sah sich Andrian als verkanntes Genie, das es in der Hand gehabt hätte, die Gesellschaft aus der Unterdrückung und dem Stillstand des Vormärz und dem Chaos der Revolution in eine bessere Zukunft zu führen. Während all dieser Jahre vermischen sich in den Tagebüchern private und öffentliche Ereignisse, Reflexionen über familiäre und freundschaftliche Verhältnisse und persönliche Entwicklungen mit politischen Aussagen und Betrachtungen über die eigene Rolle im öffentlichen Leben. Die Schwerpunkte und die Dichte der Einträge verändern sich je nach Andrians Lebenslage. Als Konstante bleibt aber das unmittelbare Interesse an der Entwicklung Österreichs und seiner zukünftigen Gestaltung in direkter Verbindung mit der eigenen Situation. Diese Wechselwirkung von öffentlichem Interesse mit persönlichem Erleben machen die Tagebücher so zu einer der eindrucksvollsten privaten Quellen zur österreichischen Geschichte vom Vormärz über die Revolution von 1848/49 bis zur Spätphase des Neoabsolutismus.
Schilderungen von finanziellen Problemen und Strategien zu ihrer Lösung, etwa durch eine reiche Heirat, wechseln mit Analysen der innen- und außenpolitischen Verhältnisse und Plänen zur Neugestaltung Österreichs. Phasen aktiven politischen Gestaltens wechseln mit Zeiten freiwilliger und erzwungener Zurückgezogenheit. Daher finden sich Einträge über Diskussionen mit führenden Politikern und höchsten Würdenträgern des Hofes bis hin zu Audienzen beim Kaiser ebenso wie Berichte von Reisen von Helgoland bis Rom und von der französischen Atlantikküste bis in den Süden Ägyptens. Zentral bleibt dabei immer das Wechselspiel zwischen privatem Erleben und öffentlicher Einflussnahme.
Viktor von Andrian fühlte sich zum Führer, nicht zum Untergebenen berufen und meinte, auf jenen Zeitpunkt warten zu können, an dem man ihn rufen müsste. So blieb er mit Ausnahme des Jahres 1848, als er für kurze Zeit aktiv in das politische Geschehen eingriff, ein Beobachter, Ratgeber und Kritiker von außen, der auf den richtigen Zeitpunkt wartete, an dem ihm die Zügel der Macht zufallen sollten. Obwohl er sich in seinen letzten Lebensjahren bewusst war, dass es sich hierbei um eine Illusion handelte, war Andrian mit dem Verlauf seiner persönlichen Entwicklung zufrieden: "Schlechtes, Gemeines habe ich Gottlob mir nie vorzuwerfen gehabt."
Die dreibändige Edition enthält neben dem kommentierten Text der Tagebücher eine Einleitung zu Leben und Werk Viktor von Andrians, eine Darstellung der Überlieferung der Tagebücher sowie erstmals ein exaktes Werkverzeichnis Andrians. Ergänzt und erweitert wird das Tagebuch durch zahlreiche Auszüge aus seinem erhaltenen Briefwechsel im Kommentar. Erschlossen ist die Edition durch ein kommentiertes Personenregister mit über 2.800 Einträgen

Thesis, Department of English, Faculty of Letters, State University of Malang. Advisors: (I)Dra. Nunung Suryati, M.Ed.,Ph.D. (II) Dr. Niamika El Khoiri, S.Pd, M.A. Key words: Think-Pair-Share, speaking, Senior High School Speaking is one of the central elements of communication in EFL learning. However, for those whose native language is not English, it is inevitable that they find speaking in English not as easy as speaking in their native language.A teacher should implement a strategy that provides an enjoyable learning which can help the students improve their speaking skills confidently. This research aims to improve the speaking skill of 11th graders of Public Senior High School 1 Sooko by employing Think-Pair-Share strategy (TPS). The preliminary research showed that the student had difficulty in conveying their ideas. The other problems dealt with their weak or poor pronunciation and grammar and their small vocabulary size.TPS, as an active learning strategy, was chosen as it was intended togive the students opportunities to convey their ideas by actively participating in discussion with their friends. To achieve the objective, Classroom Action Research (CAR) was carried out involvinga series of cycles that include planning, acting, observing, and reflecting. The research was done in four meetings. In the orientation stage, the researcher introduced explanation text as the material to the students and practice speaking with the text using TPS strategy. In the following two meetings, the students wereregularly given interaction speaking tasks on the explanation text using TPS strategy. In the last meeting, a speaking test was given and their performance was scored. Following that, the students were given a questionnaire on their responses towards the use of TPS strategy. Observation checklists and field notes from the observers were collected as well. The findings showed that 25 students (78.13%) out of 32 could successfully pass the minimum passing grade (75). The highest score was 92 achieved by 1 student (3.13%) and the lowest score was 58 achieved by 2 students (6.25%). The mean of the final score was 77.21. After the implementation of TPS strategy, it could be seen that there was improvement in students’ speaking skill. Furthermore, the result of the observation checklist showed that the students’ active participation during the implementation improved. The result of the questionnaire related to the students' response towards the use of TPS strategy in speaking class also confirmed the results of the observation in which the students showed positive responses towards it. Finally, the researcher concluded that TPS strategy successfully improved thestudents’ speaking skill. In addition, they were also actively involved in the speakingactivity. The students’ speaking performance showed that most studentswere able to speak and communicate in English better after the implementation of TPS strategy. Andrian, Brillian Wahyu.

PROSES AKTUALISASI DIRI TOKOH TATSUHIRO SATOU UNTUK LEPAS DARI KEHIDUPAN HIKIKOMORI DALAM ANIME NHK NI YOUKOSO! [NHKにようこそ！]のアニメにおける引きこもりの生活からの脱出努力をする達広佐藤の自己実現のプロセス
Get PDFABSTRACT
Fawwaz, Andrian Roffif. 2018. “Proses Aktualisasi Diri Tokoh Tatsuhiro Satou Untuk Lepas Dari Kehidupan Hikikomori Dalam Anime NHK Ni Youkoso!”. Thesis of Japanese Language and Culture Studies Program. Faculty of Humanities, Diponegoro University, Semarang. The Advisor, Budi Mulyadi, S.Pd, M.Hum.
The material object used in this research is the NHK ni Youkoso! anime. It have 24 episodes and were broadcasted on July - December 2006. The author uses literature study methods to obtain research data. The formal object of this research is the narrative structure theory which consists of basic elements of narrative, story and plot, narrative relation with time, and narrative relation with space. In addition, in order to study self-actualization of Tatsuhiro Satou’s character in his process of effort to escape the life of hikikomori, Abraham Maslow’s hierarchy of needs theory that consisted of physiological needs, needs for security, needs for love and belonging, needs for appreciation, and self-actualization are used.
The result of this research is Satou succeeded in achieving self-actualization by doing part-time work on road works project. Satou’s self-actualization was achieved because Satou realized that to meet his needs, he had to work. Satou can get out of his hikikomori life because he no longer gets money from his parents. This is supported by the fulfillment of Satou’s four needs, and is supported by counseling with Misaki, the making of a game with Yamazaki, and the will of Satou to recover from his hikikomori life.

Software-Based Energy Profiling of Android Apps: Simple, Efficient and Reliable?
No full textModeling the power profile of mobile applications is a crucial activity to identify the causes behind energy leaks. To this aim, researchers have proposed hardware-based tools as well as model-based and software-based techniques to approximate the actual energy profile. However, all these solutions present their own advantages and disadvantages. Hardware-based tools are highly precise, but at the same time their use is bound to the acquisition of costly hardware components. Model-based tools require the calibration of parameters needed to correctly create a model on a specific hardware device. Software-based approaches do not need any hardware components, but they rely on battery measurements and, thus, they are hardware-assisted. These tools are cheaper and easier to use than hardware-based tools, but they are believed to be less precise. In this paper, we take a deeper look at the pros and cons of software-based solutions investigating to what extent their measurements depart from hardware-based solutions. To this aim, we propose a softwarebased tool named PETRA that we compare with the hardwarebased MONSOON toolkit on 54 Android apps. The results show that PETRA performs similarly to MONSOON despite not using any sophisticated hardware components. In fact, in all the apps the mean relative error with respect to MONSOON is lower than 0:05. Moreover, for 95% of the analyzed methods the estimation error is within 5% of the actual values measured using the hardware-based toolkit.Software Engineerin
Lightweight Detection of Android-specific Code Smells: The aDoctor Project
No full textCode smells are symptoms of poor design solutions applied by programmers during the development of software systems. While the research community devoted a lot of effort to studying and devising approaches for detecting the traditional code smells defined by Fowler, little knowledge and support isavailable for an emerging category of Mobile app code smells. Recently, Reimann et al. proposed a new catalogue of Androidspecific code smells that may be a threat for the maintainability and the efficiency of Android applications. However, current tools working in the context of Mobile apps provide limited support and, more importantly, are not available for developers interested in monitoring the quality of their apps. To overcome these limitations, we propose a fully automated tool, coined ADOCTOR, able to identify 15 Android-specific code smells from the catalogue by Reimann et al. An empirical study conductedon the source code of 18 Android applications reveals that the proposed tool reaches, on average, 98% of precision and 98% of recall. We made ADOCTOR publicly available.Software Engineerin
