Heidegger e Guimarães Rosa: mundo, espacialidade e poesia em dois contos de corpo de baile
No full textEste artigo investiga em dois contos de Corpo de Baile, de João Guimarães Rosa, “O recado do morro” e “Cara-de-Bronze” – ambos pertencentes ao volume No Urubuquaquá, no Pinhém (1969) – o problema do mundo, da espacialidade e o lugar da poesia no horizonte da ontologia fundamental do filósofo alemão Martin Heidegger. A investigação divide-se em duas partes: (i) a partir da obra capital Ser e tempo (2011a) e de algumas preleções de 1928 a 1930, como também da década de 1950, trazer para o centro do espaço intervalar entre filosofia e literatura os conceitos de mundo e espaço de Heidegger, bem como a ligação ontológica do ser-aí com a espacialidade – essa própria etapa da investigação justifica ela mesma a sua contribuição para a teoria e crítica literárias, no que concerne a uma teoria do espaço; (ii) examinar o lugar da poesia nos contos: seu efeito (primeiro conto) e sua essência (segundo conto). Neste segundo momento, ao nos apropriarmos de um Heidegger tardio interessado na questão da arte, especialmente na poesia de Hölderlin, sublinhamos o caráter essencial da poesia, para o pensador alemão: fundação (do ser), abertura do mundo, deixar-habitar. Nosso argumento é que entre Heidegger e Guimarães Rosa, o que está em jogo nos contos selecionados é a compreensão da poesia como experiência. Entre o pensador da Floresta Negra e o autor mineiro consolidamos o encontro poesia e mundo, poesia e experiência
The Critics : Rabbitt Like Pretty Automatons
No full textThe first article is a duplicate of an item forming part of hy-dm-news-reviews-michell-1977-001The article containing information about Brian Finch and Kenny Henson has been underlined in red pen.Item located in file hy-dm-finch-henson-1947-2007-001. Not all items in folder uploaded.The first article pertains to a concert featuring Rabbitt/ 5000 Volts and Brian Finch with Kenny Henson at the Film Trust Arena whereby the author reflects on all the musicians, points out the faults and provides praise where warranted. The second article refers to the same concert which took place at the Arena the previous evening. Apart from mentioning some commendable points of the evening, the author discusses the shortfalls attached to the Rabbitt performance and points out the similarities between the Henson and finch performance compared to their previous appearances
A strain tensor method for three-dimensional optimal Michell structures
No full textThesis: M. Eng., Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, 2016.This electronic version was submitted by the student author. The certified thesis is available in the Institute Archives and Special Collections.Cataloged from student-submitted PDF version of thesis.Includes bibliographical references (pages 94-95).In the design of discrete structures such as trusses and frames, important quantitative goals such as minimal weight or minimal compliance often dominate. Many numerical techniques exist to address these needs. However, an analytical approach exists to meet similar goals, which was initiated by A.G.M. Michell (1904) and has been mostly used for two-dimensional structures so far. This thesis develops a method to extend the existing mainly two-dimensional approach to apply to three-dimensional structures. It will be referred as the Michell strain tensor method (MSTM). First, the proof that MSTM is consistent with the existing theory in two dimensions is provided. Second, two-dimensional known solutions will be replicated based on MSTM. Finally, MSTM will be used to solve new three- dimensional cases.by Benjamin Jacot.M. Eng
On the Possession of Truth in Fiction: A.S. Byatt's Confrontation with the Role of the Author
No full textWhen Possession’s protagonist, a post-structuralist/deconstructionist scholar named Roland Michell, finds and takes drafts of a letter written by Victorian poet Randolph Henry Ash, A.S. Byatt re-opens the longstanding debate concerning the ownership of truth and an author’s role in textual interpretation, ultimately asking: Who owns the meaning of a text? And even more so, why? The act of theft from the private world of an author (and the journey it spurs) allows Possession to coincide with pre-formalist notions about the author—that the author and their life is central to the meaning of their work—despite a dominant knowledge of formalism, new criticism, structuralism, poststructuralism, and deconstruction in the contemporary timeline. However, Possession’s three-and-a-half-page postscript chapter unravels a novel-length endorsement of pre-formalist notions, affording the novel a neutral existence that does not condemn nor encourage reliance on the biography of the author. As a result, this essay finds that the novel acts as a means for readers to identify two fundamental ideas about authorship and to witness a regressive transition from a post- to pre-formalist literary approach. In fact, by depicting the common occurrence of exchange to curate an author’s belongings (despite their passing), Possession even suggests that the reconfiguration of the author is a response to capitalist commodification. And so, by utilizing the theories of Roland Barthes and Michel Foucault, this essay argues how Possession shows the role of capitalism and consumerism in the contemporary approach to literature
Interactions between wavemaking and the boundary layer and wake of a ship model
No full textA detailed experimental study has been conducted in a towing tank on a 3.048-meter-long mathematical model, known as the Wigley hull, to study the effects of viscosity on the wavemaking resistance of the ship form. The measurements included total resistance, viscous resistance, pressure distribution, and boundary-layer measurements of the model at zero trim and sinkage. The three-dimensional boundary-layer measurements extend from midship to a distance of 0.1 model lengths downstream of the stern and include the pressure distribution on the body, and three components of the mean velocity measured by means of a five-hole pitot tube. These measurements were carried out for four Froude numbers of 0.266, 0.313, 0.350 and 0.400. A numerical method, using the small-crossflow approximation of the boundary-layer equations, has been employed to calculate the boundary-layer characteristics along the streamlines on the hull which were obtained by using Guilloton's methode A comparison between calculation and experimental results has been made. The wave-resistance coefficients of the ship form have been calculated by the Michell integral, using the Michell thin-ship centerplane distribution, a hull surface distribution and a slender-body centerplane distribution. These calculations have been carried out for two different cases, 1) wave resistance calculation without the effect of the boundary layer and wake, and 2) calculations including these effects. These calculations have been carried out only to first order and have been compared with the residuary resistance and the wave-profile resistance

Blood doesn't define evotypical families: Eleanor Spence's stories of informal and formal foster care in Australia
No full textClose family bonds among individuals who are not blood-related are explored here in three works of Australian award-winning children’s author Eleanor Spence. Although written in 1967, 1969, and 1982, Spence created narratives with authentic Australian contexts around what is currently acknowledged as evotypical families. These books support the education of Australian young people in developing progressive views of family formation and realizing the significance of family bonds that go beyond blood relatives.Dee Michel
