Francophonie en Orient: Aux Croisements France-Asie (1840-1940) Languages and culture in history./ Mathilde Kang.
No full textIncludes bibliographical references and index.This book offers a pioneering study of Asian cultures that officially escaped from French colonization but nonetheless were steeped in French civilization in the colonial era and had heavily French-influenced, largely francophone literatures. It raises a number of provocative questions, including whether colonization is the ultimate requirement for a culture's being defined as francophone, or how to think about francophone literatures that emerge from Asian nations that were historically free from French domination. The ultimate result is a redefining of the Asian francophone heritage according to new, transnational paradigms.Cover; Table des matières; Introduction; Plaidoyer pour une francophonie de cohabitation; Quelques rappels historiques; L'orientation des études francophones; La difficulté d'une définition standard; Le transculturel comme méthodologie; La Francophonie en Orient ou en Asie ?; Francophone de souche vs. francophone de culture; Littérature francophone vs. littérature non-francophone; Délimitations du corpus; Le plan d'ensemble; I.

Francophonie in the Orient:at the crossroads France–Asia (1840–1940). By MATHILDE KANG
No full textÉcrit dans un langage peaufiné, ce présent ouvrage pousse plus avant l’étude informative des faits francophones — historiques, sociologiques, littéraires — dans les pays ‘non-francophones’ de l’Asie de l’Est, tels que le Japon, la Corée, mais surtout la Chine. Mathilde Kang exclut délibérément les anciennes colonies françaises en Indochine de sa focalisation principale, tout en soulignant les relations pan-asiatiques face à l’influence politique et culturelle de la France dans cette région. Ce faisant, l’auteure déplace fermement le cadre théorique postcolonial en proposant une conception alternative et élargie de la francophonie en Asie, à savoir celle d’‘une francophonie de cohabitation’ (p. 9), modèle plus dynamique, qui examine les phénomènes transnationaux ainsi que les interpénétrations culturelles dans l’espace francophone historique et contemporain. Ainsi le terme ‘francophonie’ s’applique également aux pays ou aux lieux où le français sert non pas d’une langue officielle, mais d’une langue (parmi d’autres) de culture

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?).

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

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.

Piano music of Mathilde Kralik von Meyrswalden (1857-1944)
No full textThesis (D.M.A.)--Boston University
PLEASE NOTE: Boston University Libraries did not receive an Authorization To Manage form for this thesis or dissertation. It is therefore not openly accessible, though it may be available by request. If you are the author or principal advisor of this work and would like to request open access for it, please contact us at [email protected]. Thank you.This dissertation examines the life and music of Mathilde Kralik von Meyrswalden (1857-1944), with a focus on her piano solo works. This project is intended to bring new light to the forgotten late-romantic Austrian composer. As a pupil of Anton Bruckner, and as a colleague of Gustav Mahler, Kralik's style belongs to the late Romantic period in Vienna. Her musical aesthetics are similar to the styles of Schubert, Liszt, Schumann, Wolf, Mahler, and StraufS; however she had her
own unique voice from the beginning of her musical career. Though she was an active composer, performer, and musical figure of her time and was recognized and respected by the Viennese society, her life and work remain greatly understudied.
Chapter 1 presents a detailed biographical background of Mathilde Kralik von Meyrswalden. Chapter 2 provides a complete list of work by Mathilde Kralik. Chapter 3 depicts the political background of her time, and then discusses the situation of women as artists in Vienna between 1850 and 19 50. Chapter 4 focuses on two people in her closest circle: her elder brother, Richard Kralik, who was a renowned writer and cultural commentator; and her friend, Alice Scarlates, who was a lecturer for Roman language at the University of Vienna and lived with Kralik in the same house in Wiener Cottage-Viertel for over 30 years. Chapter 5 analyzes her 5 Klavierstiicke- Festmarsh, Triiumerei, Liedchen, Intermezzo, and Gavotte. Chapter 6 continues the analysis with her other major piano solo work: Priiludium, Passacaglia, und Fugato. Lastly, Chapter 7 discusses the public and critical reception of her music, both during her time and in the modern era.
The purpose of this project is first, to discover new sounds from a past style; second, to give credit to a serious, prolific, and independent female composer, who bravely chose a career with special challenges in her time and her surroundings; third, to encourage further research and performances of Kralik's works
