Ursula in The Rainbow
No full textLawrence first intended to publish the new story titled Sisters, but he changed his original plan and split it into two stories, The Rainbow (1915) and Women in Love (1919). Lawrence refers to the relations of the two stories in 1916, saying that Women in Love is a kind of sequel to The Rainbow. F.R. Leavis commented on the later work, pointing out that it is "wholly self-contained" and has "no organic connexion with The Rainbow." His point is understandable when we consider that the writing style of The Rainbow belongs to the 19th century English novel, while Women in Love is analytic and esoteric. However, the truth is that the main interest of the stories is quite similar to each other. Leavis's point of view attracts our attention in that he believes Lawrence was well matured enough to write Women in Love by the time (1915) when he finished The Rainbow. This suggests that the author had already had that critical mind represented in the later story, which is well enough proved by the characterization of Ursula in The Rainbow. Although Leavis is negative of the connection between The Rainbow and Women in Love, Ursula in the former novel is surely identical of another Ursula in Women in Love. It is not too much to say that The Rainbow was written in order to create Ursula. The cardinal purpose here is to discuss how important Ursula is for Women in Love, paying attention to Ursula in the former story.departmental bulletin pape
The world is changing: ethics and genre development in three twentieth-century high fantasies.
No full textThis thesis examines three genre high fantasy texts published between 1954 and 2001: J. R. R. Tolkien’s 'The Lord of the Rings', Ursula K. Le Guin’s 'Earthsea' cycle and Patricia A. McKillip’s 'The Riddle-Master’s Game'. The emphasis is on examining how the three texts use a common set of structures to articulate a developing argument about forms of human engagement with the physical world in the face of environmental crisis.
Using theories of literary ecology and narrative paradigm, I examine the common structure shared by the three high fantasies and the weight of ethical implications it carries. The texts position the transcendent impulse of the mode of tragedy, and the behaviour it generates, as the source of crisis, and posit as a solution to the problem the integrative ethic characteristic of the comedic mode. They argue that a transition between these two ethics is necessary for the continued survival of the Secondary World. This thesis examines each text’s use of narrative paradigm to articulate methods by which this ethical transition may be achieved.
An argumentative trend is documented across the three fantasies through the representation of situation, problem and solution. In each text, as the Secondary World becomes more completely a closed physical system, the source of the solution to the problem caused by the transcendent presence and the achievement of ethical transition are both relocated within the control of human actors. The three fantasies express a gradual movement toward the acceptance of not only human responsibility for, but the necessity for action to remedy, the damaged state of the world.
I argue that the texts’ dominant concern is with the human relationship with and to context. Indeed, I argue that the three fantasies reflect the developing understanding of the human role in not only precipitating, but responding to, environmental crisis, and may function as both a reflection of and an intervention in that crisis.Thesis (Ph.D.) -- University of Adelaide, School of Humanities, 200
Werte schulischer Begabtenförderung: Begabung und Leistung
No full textDas Karg Heft 04 schließt an die allgemeine und grundlegende Beleuchtung von Werten in der schulischen Begabtenförderung an, die Thema von KARG HEFT 03 („Werte schulischer Begabtenförderung - Begabungsbegriff und Wertorientierung“) war, und rückt nunmehr den spezifischen Wertekontext „Leistung“ in den Fokus. Dabei geht es vor allem um eine kritische Auseinandersetzung mit der traditionellen Notengebung bzw. um die Realisierung einer veränderten Leistungskultur in Schulen.
Über die schulpädagogischen Aspekte hinaus wird dazu die Frage thematisiert, welche Werte im Zusammenhang mit dem Leistungsprinzip in der Begabtenförderung von Bedeutung sind. Während auf der einen Seite der Leistungsbegriff zu erweitern ist und bisher wenig beachtete Leistungsbereiche neu bzw. wieder zu erschließen sind, ist auf der anderen Seite der Blick auf Leistung zu relativieren und mit weiteren Aspekten der Begabtenförderung in Balance zu bringen.
Das Karg Heft 04 bildet Beiträge und Ergebnisse vom gleichnamigen GADHEIMER KREIS 2010 ab.

Farewell Ursula Le Guin – the One who walked away from Omelas
No full text[Extract] Author Ursula Kroeber Le Guin has been the subject of critical debate, analysis and discussion for generations. She died this week at the age of 88.
Le Guin published her first paid work April in Paris in the September 1962 issue of the magazine Fantastic Stories of the Imagination - and I am the proud owner of an original copy. I am a lifelong Le Guin fan, but also an academic exploring how science fiction is a cultural artefact that acts as a lens on changing attitudes and specific issues of its time. For me, Le Guin hit the sweet spots of her time powerfully and frequently.
Le Guin explored what it is to be human, faults and all, and the impact and influence of her work is undeniable in the world of fantasy and science fiction

Interview with Ursula Heinzelmann
No full textUrsula Heinzelmann, born the eldest of three children in Berlin in 1963, has always been interested in food and cooking. She apprenticed as a chef in a Berlin Hotel whose restaurant earned a Michelin star and later ran a restaurant on Lake Constance with her first husband also winning a Michelin star for local, regional, seasonal food, which in the 1980s was avant garde. She trained as a Sommelier in Heidelberg in 1992 and later married her love of wine with cheese before focusing her energy on food writing. Moving back to Berlin with her second husband, an English wine writer, Ursula began to write freelance for the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung and a number of different publications. She published her first book in 2005. Ursula first attended the Oxford Symposium on Food and Cookery in 2003 which she describes as a revelation and where she found her “intellectual home”. Winning the Sophie Coe Prize for writing on food history in 2004 and 2006, she has been involved in the Advisory Board, as a Trustee and as the programmer of the Oxford Symposium for many years. She is currently the author of nine books, numerous articles and in 2008 she won the Prix du Champagne Lanson for her wine journalism in Slow Food Magazine, and since 2017 has been acting as director of the Symposium.https://arrow.tudublin.ie/oxfor/1011/thumbnail.jp
