    Problems of urban redevelopment: a case study of the Martin Luther King, Jr. Historical District, 1987

    No full text
    The primary intent of this degree paper is to examine the factors contributing to lack of redevelopment in the Martin Luther King, Jr. Historical District, formerly known as 'Sweet Auburn.' An attempt has also been made to analyze both qualitative and quantitative urban economic variables (area economy, crime, land use, housing and characteristics of population) that environmentally impact upon the central issue of lack of 'Sweet Auburn's' redevelopment. The factors contributing to the lack of redevelopment are important for several reasons. Many major western, midwestern and northeastern cities are presently suffering from infrastructural decay and major projects require astronomical financial capacity. The urban crisis has impacted upon redevelopment or lack of it, in that the disamenities or negative forces (crime, juvenile delinquency, high taxes, and deterioration of infrastructure) have aggregatedly pushed persons to the suburbs. On the other hand, factors that have pulled persons to the suburbs are: low taxes, better schools, new housing, open spaces and new or unfinished infrastructure. These two forces, along with many other political, social and economic forces have contributed to the decline of the inner city and lack of redevelopment within the Martin Luther King, Jr. Historical District. The primary sources were formal interview with Mr. John Heath of the Atlanta Department of Community Development and informal interviews were conducted with various neighborhood residents. The secondary sources of data collection were from various books, articles and magazines

    An observation of a transverse to longitudinal emittance exchange at the Fermilab A0 photoinjector:

    An experimental program to perform a proof of principle of transverse to longitudinal emittance exchange has been developed at the Fermilab A0 Photoinjector. A new beamline, including two magnetic dogleg channels and a TM110 deflecting mode radio frequency cavity, were constructed for the emittance exchange experiment. The first priority was a measurement of the Emittance Exchange beamline transport matrix. The method of difference orbits was used to measure the transport matrix. Through varying individual beam input vector elements, such as input x, x', y, y', z, or momentum and measuring the changes in all of the beam output vector's elements, output x, x', y, y', z, and momentum the full 6X6 transport matrix was measured. The measured emittance exchange transport matrix was in overall good agreement with our calculated transport matrix. A direct observation of an emittance exchange was performed by measuring the electron beam's characteristics before and after the emittance exchange beamline. Operating with a 14.3 MeV, 250 pC electron bunch, longitudinal input emittance of 21.1+/-1.5 mm.mrad was observed to be exchanged with output horizontal emittance of 20.8+/-2.00 mm.mrad. Diagnostic limitations in the longitudinal output emittance measurement did not account for an energy-time correlation, thus potentially returning values larger than the actual longitudinal emittance. The horizontal input emittance of 4.67+/-0.22 mm.mrad was observed to be exchanged with the longitudinal output emittance of 7.06+/-0.43 mm.mrad. The apparent longitudinal output emittance growth is consistent with calculated values in which the correlation term is neglected.Ph.D.Includes bibliographical references (p. 160-164)by Timothy W.

    W poszukiwaniu klucza do zrozumienia historii XX stulecia. Teoria historii i metodologia stosowana Timothy Snydera

    No full text
    The paper considers Timothy Snyder's applied methodology of history. Snyder's original field of interest as a professional historian was historical biography, but it did not take him long to put transnational history at the centre of his attention. The author posits that Snyder's practice in this historiographic paradigm has laid the foundation for his greatest academic achievements, leading to him being recognized as one of the best historians working today

    „Skrwawione ziemie” Timothy Snydera. Krytyczne uwagi na temat konstrukcji krajobrazu historycznego

    No full text
    Timothy Snyder’s "Bloodlands". Critical comments on the construction of historical landscape Jürgen Zarusky's text is an extensive deconstruction of Timothy Snyder's narration presented in Bloodlands. The narration is based on the assumption, that both regimes – Nazi and Soviet – and their extermination practicies were similar. In Bloodlands Stalin's crimes are presented as a form of ethnic extermination. Thus Snyder suggested ideological kinship between both dictators without analysing specific ideologies. Although the author specifies the differences between these two ideologies he does not ask about their significance to the enemy image and extermination practicies. Snyder's narration concentrates excessively on Poland – as the core of “bloodlands”. In the closing chapter of the book Poles are depicted as the actual martyrs of “bloodlands” in Poland, as well as on the territory of the Soviet Union. Yet up to this day there are ethinc gorups – like Sinti and Romany -  who have to fight for the recognition of their tragic experiences as the victims of crimes commited by German authorities. The author also does not mention about the victims of the agressive wars against the Soviet Union. Thus the point of Bloodlands is not to present all the victims of totalitarianism and the war, all the victims from “bloodlands”, but to present only the victims selected by the author.   „Skrwawione ziemie” Timothy Snydera. Krytyczne uwagi na temat konstrukcji krajobrazu historycznego Tekst Jürgen Zarusky'ego to obszerna dekonstrukcja narracji Timothy Snydera zaprezentowanej w książce Skrwawione ziemie. Zasadza się ona na założeniu, że oba reżimy - niemiecki i radziecki - oraz ich praktyki eksterminacyjne były bardzo do siebie zbliżone. W książce przedstawiono stalinowskie zbrodnie masowe jako formę etnicznej eksterminacji. W ten sposób Snyder zasugerował ideologiczne pokrewieństwo między obu dyktatorami, nie podejmując się analizy konkretnych ideologii. Chociaż wymienia różnice między nimi, jednak nie pyta o ich znaczenie dla obrazu wroga i praktyk eksterminacyjnych. Narracja Snydera nazbyt koncentruje się na Polsce jako jądrze „skrwawionych ziem”. Polaków przedstawia w końcowym rozdziale jako właściwych męczenników „skrwawionej ziemi”, tak w samej Polsce, jak na terenie Związku Radzieckiego. Tymczasem niektóre grupy muszą do dziś walczyć o uznanie swojego tragicznego losu prześladowanych, jak choćby Sinti i Romowie, którzy masowo byli mordowani przez nazistowskie władze. W Skrwawionych ziemiach nie pojawia się słowo na ich temat. W książce nie znajdują także odbicia ofiary wojen zaczepnych, szczególnie skierowanych przeciwko Związkowi Radzieckiemu. W pracy Snydera nie chodzi zatem o wszystkie ofiary totalitaryzmu i wojny, w tym także nie wszystkie z terenów „skrwawionych ziem”, lecz o ich wybór dokonany przez autora

    The poetics of indefinition

    No full text
    Artykuł jest owocem refleksji nad najnowszą poezją polską, szczególnie tzw. nowych dykcji. Bliska lektura początku poematu Bohdana Zadury 1 VIII 1979 7.45 - 22.45 [czternaście godzin z Piotrem Sommerem] oraz Wiersza o przecinkach Piotra Sommera prowadzi - z jednej strony - do sformułowania tezy o niewystarczalności dotychczasowych koncepcji poetyk momentalnych (autor podejmuje dyskusję z koncepcją "zgramatykalizowania systemu wersowego wytwarzania komunikatów" zaproponowaną przez Artura Grabowskiego), z drugiej zaś - do wypracowania koncepcji wiersza zaangażowanego po stronie zmian (w ramach szerszej charakterystyki modernistycznych poetyk nieokreśloności).This article is the product of reflection on contemporary Polish poetry, particularly the new diction. A close reading of the beginning of Bohdan Zadura’s poem "1 VIII 1979 7.45 - 22.45 [czternaście godzin z Piotrem Sommerem]" (1 August 1979, 7:45-22:45 [fourteen hours with Piotr Sommer]) and Piotr Sommer’s “Wiersz o przecinkach” (Poem About Commas) leads to, on the one hand, positing a thesis on the inadequacy of previous conceptions of poetics of the moment (the author enters into a discussion with the concept of "grammaticalizing the system of line-by-line production of messages" proposed by Artur Grabowski), and, on the other hand, to the development of a concept of the poem engaged on the side of change (within a broader description of modernist poetics of indefinition)

    Timothy Findley's True Fictions: A Conversation at Stone Orchard

    No full text
    History, myth, the process of writing and using language, and other works of fiction come together in Timothy Findley's work. The author sees parallels between fiction and history writers: he says that fiction writers are trying to articulate all the versions of reality, all the different points of view. While discussing two of his novels, Famous Last Words and The Wars, he elaborates on the difficulties of ever getting the complete story. The author attempts to land on just the right image, to say: "This is what was in that moment.
