    Mestrado em Estudos InglesesEsta tese propõe-se a investigar expressões do discurso gay irlandês contemporâneo na obra do autor irlandês Frank Ronan. O tratamento literário de temas como a influência da Igreja Católica, a importância da célula familiar irlandesa, ou a manifestação de posições políticas relacionadas com nacionalismo e colonialismo nas suas obras será analisado, com vista a examinar como estes e outros factores moldam a maneira como o discurso homossexual é construído na república da Irlanda e no trabalho de Frank Ronan em particular. Também será dada atenção a estereótipos nacionais e o seu efeito na escrita de Frank Ronan. ABSTRACT: This dissertation proposes an investigation of expressions of the contemporary Irish gay discourse in the fiction of Irish author Frank Ronan. The literary treatment of themes such as the influence of the Catholic Church, the importance of the Irish family cell, or the manifestation of political views, concerning nationalism and colonialism in the novels will be analysed, in order to study how these and other factors shape the way that homosexual discourse is constructed in the Republic of Ireland and in the work of Frank Ronan in particular. Attention will also be given to Irish national stereotypes, and their effect on Ronan’s writing

    Full text link
    Copyright law is the site of significant contemporary controversy. In recent years copyright history has transformed as a subject from being one of interest to a few books historians to the focus of sustained historical investigation attracting the attention of scholars from across the humanities. This book comprises a collection of essays on copyright history by leading experts drawn from a range of countries and disciplinary perspectives. Covering the period from 1450 to 1900, these essays engage with a number of related themes. The first considers the general movement, from the sixteenth century onwards, from privilege to property-based conceptions of copyright protection. The second addresses the relationship between the protection provided for literary and print materials and that provided for other forms of cultural production. The third concerns the significance and relevance of these various histories in shaping and informing contemporary policy and academic practice. Essays include: 0.

    Progress and Distress on the Stratford Estate in Clare during the Eighteen Forties

    Full text link
    In the late 1980s and early 1990s, the author acquired about 30,000 letters written mainly in the 1840s. These pertained to estates throughout Ireland managed by James Robert Stewart and Joseph Kincaid, hereafter denoted SK. Until the letters - called the SK correspondence in what follows - became the author’s property, they had not seen light of day since the 1840s. Addressed mainly to the SK office in Dublin, they were written mainly by landlords, tenants, the partners in SK, local agents, etc. After about 200 years in operation as a land agency, the firm in which members of the Stewart family were the principal partners - Messrs J. R. Stewart & Son(s) from the mid-1880s onwards -- ceased business in the mid-1980s. Since 1994 the author has been researching the SK correspondence of the 1840s. It gives many new insights into economic and social conditions in Ireland during the decade of the great famine, and into the operation of Ireland’s most important land agency during those years. It is intended ultimately to publish details on several of the estates managed by SK in book form. The proposed title is Landlords, Tenants, Famine: Business of an Irish Land Agency in the 1840s, a draft of which has now been completed. A majority of the letters in the larger study from which the present article is drawn are on themes some of which one might expect - rents, distraint (seizure of assets in lieu of rent) ; ‘voluntary’ surrender of land in return for ‘compensation’ upon peacefully quitting; formal ejectment (a matter of last resort on estates managed by SK); landlord-assisted emigration (on a scale much more extensive than most historians of Ireland in the 1840s appear to believe); petitions from tenants; complaints by tenants, both about other tenants and local agents; major works of improvement (on almost all of the estates managed by SK); applications by SK, on behalf of proprietors, for government loans to finance improvements; recommendations of agricultural advisers hired by SK, ete. Thus, most of the SK correspondence is about aspects of estate management. It seems, in the 1840s, that the only estate in Clare managed by SK was that of the elderly Col. Stratford. Although the files on the relatively small Stratford estate are much less extensive than those on some of the estates investigated in detail in the draft of Landlords, Tenants, Famine, they do refer to most of the core aspects of estate management mentioned above. But in the case of the Clare estate, the material on some of those themes is extremely thin.

    패션은 다양한 분야와의 접목을 통해 표현 영역을 점차 확대하고 있으며, 특히 미술은 중요한 영감의 원천이 되어왔다. 드로잉은 작가의 생각을 구체화하는 발상의 과정인 동시에 직관을 드러내는 창조 행위의 시작으로서, 선으로 그리는 스케치의 의미를 넘어 작가의 개성이 담긴 하나의 작품으로써 평가되기도 한다. 하지만 기존의 패션디자인 연구에서는 드로잉을 접목한 사례가 많지 않다. 이에 본 연구는 로낭 부훌렉 드로잉 작품 중 펠트펜 드로잉에 나타나는 조형성을 응용한 패션디자인에 관하여 연구하였다. 로낭 부훌렉은 유기적인 현대 디자인의 새로운 방향을 모색한 작가로, 그의 드로잉 작업은 독자적인 예술적 가치를 지닌 작품으로 평가받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 로낭 부훌렉 펠트펜 드로잉의 부드럽고 유기적인 선의 흐름, 반복과 겹침에 의한 시각적 질감을 촉각적 질감으로 표현하기 위해 컷 테이프 자수 기법을 디자인에 접목하였다. 본 연구의 목적은 로낭 부훌렉 펠트펜 드로잉을 컷 테이프 자수 기법을 중심으로 패션디자인에 응용함으로써, 패션의 모티프로서 드로잉의 가치를 재발견하고 패션디자인의 표현영역을 확대하는 데에 있다. 본 연구의 내용 및 방법은 다음과 같다. 이론적 배경에서는 로낭 부훌렉의 작품세계와 펠트펜 드로잉에 관하여 살펴보고, 로낭 부훌렉 펠트펜 드로잉의 조형적 특성을 분석한다. 또한 표현 기법으로써 선택한 테이프 자수 기법의 정의와 종류, 이를 응용한 패션디자인 사례를 분석한다. 분석한 이론적 배경을 토대로 로낭 부훌렉 펠트펜 드로잉의 조형성을 응용한 실물 작품 5벌을 제작한다. 본 연구를 통해 도출된 결론은 다음과 같다. 첫째, 작품의 모티프로서 로낭 부훌렉의 펠트펜 드로잉은 곡선과 직선의 혼합과굵기의 다양한 변화, 반복된 선의 방향성으로 인해 자유롭고 유기적인 선의 흐름을 표현하기에 적합하였다. 둘째, 로낭 부훌렉 드로잉을 테이프 자수 기법으로 표현한 결과, 테이프의 반복과 겹침에 의해 요철감과 결을 형성함으로써 드로잉에 나타난 시각적 질감을 촉각적 질감으로 전환하기에 효과적이었다. 또한 바이어스 컷 테이프의 중첩에 의한 연속면은 밀도 변화에 따라 섬세한 드로잉의 결의 이미지와 볼륨감을 표현하기에 적합하였다. 셋째, 작품의 소재에 있어서 투시성이 있는 반투명의 오간자는 로낭 부훌렉의 펠트펜 드로잉에 나타난 투명감과 중첩의 효과를 부각하기에 적합하였다. 넷째, 로낭 부훌렉의 펠트펜 드로잉에 나타난 주된 색조인 ‘light clear&amp;apos;를 작품에 적용한 결과, 로낭 부훌렉 드로잉에서 나타나는 부드럽고 맑은 이미지를 보다 강조할 수 있었다. 본 연구는 로낭 부훌렉의 펠트펜 드로잉 작품에 나타나는 조형적 특성을 테이프 자수 기법을 통해 패션디자인에 응용하고자 하였다. 이를 통해 패션의 모티프로서 드로잉 작품이 유기적인 선의 흐름을 창출할 수 있음을 확인할 수 있었으며, 컷 테이프 자수 기법이 시각적 질감을 촉각적 질감으로 전환하기에 효과적인 기법임을 확인할 수 있었다. 본 연구를 통해 드로잉을 접목한 다양한 시도가 보다 확대되길 기대한다. ;Fashion has gradually expanded its expressiveness through its interlinking with various fields, and art in particular has been an important source of inspiration. Drawing is the beginning of an act of creativity that embodies the author&amp;apos;s ideas and also reveals his intuition, and is considered to be a work of the writer&amp;apos;s individuality beyond the meaning of a line sketch. However, not many existing fashion design studies have incorporated drawing. In this study, we studied fashion design that applied the formative properties of felt-pen drawing among Ronan Bouroullec drawing works. Ronan Bouroullec is an author who has sought a new direction in organic modern design, and his drawing work is regarded as a work of independent artistic value. In this study, a cut tape embroidery technique was incorporated into the design to express the smooth and organic flow of lines in these Ronan Bouroullec felt-tongued visual texture by repetition and overlap as tactile The purpose of this study is to rediscover the value of drawing as a fashion motif and expand the area of expression in fashion design by applying Ronan Bouroullec felt-pen drawing to fashion design with a focus on cut tape embroidery technique. The content and methods of this study are as follows. In the theoretical background, we examine the work world of Ronan Bouroullec and the felt-pen drawing, and analyze the modeling characteristics of Ronan Bouroullec felt-pen drawing. It also analyzes the definition and type of tape embroidery technique selected as an expression technique, and the fashion design case in which it is applied. Based on the theoretical background analyzed, five real-life works that apply the formative nature of Ronan Bouroullec felt-pen drawing will be produced. The conclusions drawn from this study are as follows: First, the felt-pen drawing of Ronan Bouroullec as the motif of the work was suitable to express the flow of free and organic lines due to the mixture of curves and straight lines, various changes in thickness, and the direction of repeated lines. Second, as a result of expressing Ronan Bouroullec drawing with tape embroidery technique, it was effective to convert the visual texture shown in drawing into tactile texture by forming bumps and cones by repetition and overlap of tape. In particular, continuous surfaces by bias cut tapes were suitable for expressing resolution images and volumetric feelings of fine drawing with varying density. Third, the translucent Oganza, which were visible in the subject matter of the work, was suitable to highlight the effect of transparency and overlay shown in the felt-pen drawing of Ronan Bouroullec. Fourth, as a result of applying light clear, the primary shade of color in the felt-pen drawing of Ronan Bouroullec, to the work, the soft and clear image of Ronan Bouroullec was more emphasized. This study intended to apply the plastic characteristics of Ronan Bouroullec&amp;apos;s felt-pen drawing work to fashion design through tape embroidery techniques. This confirmed that drawing work as a motif of fashion can create an organic stream of lines, and that cutting tape embroidery technique is an effective technique for converting visual texture into tactile texture. It is hoped that the various attempts to graft drawing will be further expanded through this study.Ⅰ. 서론 1 A. 연구의 목적 1 B. 연구 방법과 내용 2 Ⅱ. 이론적 배경 3 A. 로낭 부훌렉의 드로잉에 관한 고찰 3 1. 로낭 부훌렉의 작품세계와 펠트펜 드로잉 3 2. 로낭 부훌렉 펠트펜 드로잉의 조형적 특성 17 B. 테이프 자수에 관한 고찰 26 1. 테이프 자수 기법의 종류 27 2. 컷 테이프 자수 기법을 활용한 패션디자인 사례 32 Ⅲ. 작품 제작 및 해설 37 A. 작품 제작 의도 및 방법 37 B. 작품 및 해설 41 Ⅳ. 결론 83 참고문헌 85 ABSTRACT 8

    Eukaryotic DNA replication is a dynamic process requiring the co-operation of specific replication proteins. The replication factor Cdc45 has essential functions in the initiation and elongation steps of eukaryotic DNA replication and plays a role in the intra-S-phase checkpoint. Its interactions with a variety of replication proteins forming two central complexes, Cdc45/Mcm2-7/GINS (CMG) the putative replicative helicase of eukaryotes, and replisome progression complex (RPC) during the cell cycle and after intra-S-phase checkpoint activation remain to be fully characterized. The C terminal part of Cdc45 is important for its interaction with Claspin. The interactions of human Cdc45 with the three replication factors Claspin, replication protein A (RPA) and DNA polymerase ¿ are maximal during S phase. Following UVC-mediated DNA damage, Cdc45-Claspin complex formation is reduced whereas the binding of Cdc45 to RPA is not affected. We also show that treatment of cells with UCN-01, Caffeine or Wortmannin does not rescue the UV-mediated destabilisation of Cdc45-Claspin interactions, suggesting that the loss of interaction between Cdc45 and Claspin occurs independently of ATR activation in the intra-S-phase checkpoint. The sub-cellular localisation of Cdc45 in the cell cycle and following activation of the intra-S-phase checkpoint was also determined. Cdc45 showed a specific nuclear and nucleolar localisation and the Cdc45 association with nucleoli was abolished following UV damage and inhibiting nucleolar transcription. We then determined the regions of Cdc45 needed for its localisation to nuclear compartments. Spcifically, aa101-155 and aa156-169 are required for recruitment of Cdc45 to the nucleus and nucleolus, respectively. Measuring the mobility of eGFP-Cdc45 by Fluorescence Correlation Spectroscopy (FCS) in vivo in asynchronous cells and in cells synchronized at the G1/S transition and during S phase showed that eGFP-Cdc45 mobility is faster in G1/S transition compared to S phase suggesting that Cdc45 is part of larger protein complex formed in S phase. Furthermore, the size of complexes containing Cdc45 was estimated in asynchronous, G1/S and S phase-synchronized cells using gel filtration chromatography; these findings complemented the in vivo FCS data. Analysis of the mobility of eGFP-Cdc45 and the size of complexes containing Cdc45 and eGFP-Cdc45 after UVC-mediated DNA damage revealed no significant changes in diffusion rates and complex sizes using FCS and gel filtration chromatography analyses. These findings suggest that after UV-damage, Cdc45 is still present in a large multi-protein complex and that its mobility within living cells is consistently similar following UVC-mediated DNA damag
