Gender and pedagogics - Mathilde Vaerting, professor of educational science (Jena, 1923-1933)
No full textDer Aufsatz skizziert Leben und Karriere von Mathilde Vaerting (1884-1977), der ersten Professorin für Erziehungswissenschaft in Deutschland, Jena 1923-1933. Ihr Hauptwerk „Neubegründung der Psychologie von Mann und Weib", 1921ff., wird unter Aspekten der Forschungslogik analysiert und auf Konsequenzen für die Erziehungswissenschaft befragt. Ihre Forderung nach Gleichberechtigung und Abwehr jeglicher Herrschaft werden vor dem Hintergrund heutiger feministischer Forderungen diskutiert. Im Anschluß an die Betrachtung der zeitgenössischen Rezeption Mathilde Vaertings wird die Frage aufgeworfen, inwieweit ihr Leben und ihre Karriere die Stellung der Frau in der Wissenschaft während der zwanziger Jahre (und auch später?) spiegeln. (DIPF/Orig.)The author outlines the biography and career of Mathilde Vaerting (1884-1977), the first woman to hold a chair in educational science in Germany. Her major work - Neubegründung der Psychologie von Mannund Weib (1921 fol.) - is analyzed from a methodological point of view and with respect to its implications for educational research. Vaerting\u27s demands for equal rights for women and her rejection of any kind of domination are discussed within the framework of present feminist positions. After having studied how contemporaries reacted to Mathilde Vaerting\u27s writings, the author raises the question of whether Vaerting\u27s life and career reflect the Status of women in science during the 1920s (and later on?).

TikTok as a data gathering space: the case of grandchildren and grandparents during the COVID-19 pandemic
No full textGrandparents and grandchildren benefit from a relationship with each other. However, in times of crisis and social distancing it is challenging to maintain this relationship. In this paper, we reflect on TikTok as a data gathering platform that might help designers to capture and ideate on remote communication design across generations. We report on a study that aimed to learn about how grandparents and grandchildren perform their relationship on TikTok in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic. Our work might trigger discussions on the potentials of social media as a place for data gathering, as well as the implications of these insights when designing for and with children, and more particularly intergenerational remote interactions.sponsorship: The first author receives funding in the context of the re:tangent research project, funded by FWO (Fonds Wetenschappelijk Onderzoek Vlaanderen - grant number G0E3718N) in collaboration with the Center for Human-Computer Interaction (University of Salzburg).

Effi Briest, Mathilde Möhring. The Development of Theodor Fontane's Female Characters on the Background of Women Emancipation.
No full textTheodore Fontane is best known as the author of numerous women's novels, which he wrote in the last ten years of his life. This diploma thesis deals with the topic of women's emancipation on the basis of textual analysis of two latter novels by Theodore Fontane - Effi Briest and Mathilde Möhring. In the first part, it characterizes the topic of the period women's emancipation and puts the author's biography into context. In the second part, it creates the picture of position of the main women characters. The last part describes the personal development of the women characters, on the basis of which I determine how much the women's emancipation reflects in the author's work and what is his attitude towards it. This thesis deals with the interpretation of the author's intent to illustrate the creation of an advanced character like Mathilde Möhring. Key words: Theodore Fontane, women's emancipation, Effi Briest, Mathilde Möhring, development of women's characters, women's novels, interpretation, author's intent, counterpoin
Grandparenting and intergenerational emotional closeness : grandparents and their teenage and emerging adult grandchildren's perceptions
No full textLa proximité émotionnelle entre les grands-parents et leurs petits-enfants adolescents et jeunes adultes est importante pour les deux générations. Cependant la grand-parentalité est encore peu étudiée dans le contexte français. Ce travail doctoral a comme objectif de proposer une compréhension approfondie de la proximité émotionnelle entre les grands-parents et leurs petits-enfants adolescents et adultes émergents sous le prisme de la théorie de la solidarité intergénérationnelle et de la théorie de l'échange d'affection. Ce travail de thèse est divisé en quatre parties permettant de mieux appréhender la grand-parentalité. La première partie porte sur les attentes concernant le rôle de grand-parent, la deuxième partie porte sur les facteurs influençant la proximité émotionnelle dans la relation grand-parent-petit-enfant, la troisième partie porte sur l'évolution de la grand-parentalité aux différents âges de la vie du petit-enfant et en particulier à l'âge adulte émergent, et enfin, la quatrième partie porte sur les manifestations de cette relation intergénérationnelle. Une réflexion autour de recommandations pratiques et de perspectives future est proposée.Emotional closeness between grandparents and their adolescent and emerging adult grandchildren is important for the two generations. Notwithstanding, grandparenting is understudied in the French context. The aim of this thesis is to provide a comprehensive understanding of emotional closeness in the relationship between grandparents and their adolescent and emerging adult grandchildren, under the scope of the intergenerational solidarity framework and Affection Exchange Theory. This thesis is divided in four parts allowing a better understanding of intergenerational relationships in the context of grandparenthood. The first part addresses the expectations concerning the role of grandparents, the second part deals with factors influencing emotional closeness in the grandparent-grandchild relationship, the third part addresses evolutions in grandparenting across the lifespan of grandchildren and especially during emerging adulthood, and lastly, the fourth part addresses the manifestations of this intergenerational relationship. The first part is dedicated to an experimental study about adolescents' expectations about what good grandparents should teach them, and the French translation and validation of the Ideal Grandparent Scale. The second part consists of a systematic review of emotional closeness between grandparents and their adolescent and emerging adult grandchildren, and in an experimental study about the similarity in personality traits, affectionate communication and emotional closeness between grandparents and their adolescent and emerging adult grandchildren from the grandchildren's perspective. The third part is divided in a scoping review on the use of the intergenerational solidarity framework in grandparenting studies, and a qualitative study with grandparent and emerging adult dyads on their perception of their emotional closeness. The fourth part is divided in the translation and validation of the Grandchildren's Received Affection Scale in French, and in a social media content analyses on TikTok during the Covid-19 pandemic. A reflection on practical recommendations and future perspectives is proposed

Tato práce zpracovává na základě analýzy textu téma ženské emancipace v jeho dvou pozdějších románech - Manželství Effi Briestové a Mathilda Möhringová. V první části charakterizuje téma dobové ženské emancipace a zasazuje autorovu biografii do kontextu. V druhé části utváří obraz pozice hlavních románových hrdinek. V poslední části je shrnut osobní vývoj ženských postav, na jejímž základě má být zodpovězena otázka, nakolik se ženská emancipace odráží v autorově díle a jaký je jeho postoj k ní. Práce se zároveň zabývá intepretací autorova záměru, který vytvořil postavu pokročilé Mathildy Möhringové, čímž dosáhl kontrapunktu k tomu, co doposud psal.

Tunisian Politics in France: Long-Distance Activism since the 1980s
No full textInternational audienceWhat does it mean to oppose or support an authoritarian regime from afar? During the years of Ben Ali's dictatorship in Tunisia between 1987 and 2011, diaspora activism played a key role in the developments of post-independence Tunisian politics. Centring this study on long-distance activism in France, where the majority of leftist and Islamist exile groups took refuge, Mathilde Zederman explores how this activism helps to shed new light on Tunisia's political history. Tunisian Politics in France closely explores the interactions and conflicts between different constellations of pro-regime and oppositional actors in France, examining the dynamics of what the author persuasively describes as a 'trans-state space of mobilisation'. In doing so, Zederman draws attention to the constraints and possibilities of long-distance activism. Utilising material gathered from extensive fieldwork in France and Tunisia, this study considers how the evolution of diaspora activism both challenges and reinforces the boundaries of Tunisian politics
Book review: Photography of protest and community: the radical collectives of the 1970s by Noni Stacey
No full textIn Photography of Protest and Community: The Radical Collectives of the 1970s, Noni Stacey shows how a 1970s network of London-based photography collectives raised fundamental questions about the politics of photography, the role and responsibilities of photographers in relation to local communities and the uses of photography in the context of social activism. This book is a welcome addition to the expanding field of research on the photography of protest, writes Mathilde Bertrand, contributing to the ongoing documentation of this strong current in British photographic history. If you are interested in this book review, you can read an LSE RB interview with author Dr Noni Stacey.
