bewusste und unbewusste Adaption, Zitation und Wahrnehmung von Kunst in der Populärkultur und ihr möglicher Nutzen für die Museumspädagogik
No full textSoftcover, 17x24, 230 S.: 26,00 €Softcover, 17x24Es gibt einige Kunstwerke aus der italienischen Renaissance, die jedem bekannt sind, wie die Mona Lisa von Leonardo da Vinci, die Erschaffung Adams als Teil der Sixtinischen Decke von Michelangelo Buonarroti oder die Engelchen der Sixtinischen Madonna von Raffael Santi. Doch wie haben ausgerechnet diese Werke bzw. ihre Ausschnitte ihren Weg in unseren Alltag gefunden? Worin liegt der besondere Reiz, diese und keine anderen Motive für Film und Fernsehen, Comics, Zeitschriften- und Büchercover, Alltagsgegenstände und Dekorationen zu verwenden und zu verfremden? Warum wurden gerade die Schöpfer dieser Kunstwerke zu „Künstlerhelden“ hochstilisiert, mit deren Namen man untrennbar bestimmte Attribute verknüpft? Ist Kunst als Motiv in der Warenästhetik per se immer Kitsch? Und gibt es eine Möglichkeit, die Allgegenwart der vertrauten Motive zu nutzen, um die Menschen, besonders Kinder und Jugendliche, zurück ins Museum zu bringen? All diesen Fragen und vielen weiteren wird in der vorliegenden Dissertation auch mit interdisziplinären Methoden nachgegangen

Balancing work and family: how does family responsibilities discrimination affect career advancement?
No full textThis exploratory mixed-methods study uses grounded theory to examine the relationship between family responsibilities discrimination (FRD) and career advancement in the public sector. By employing a primarily qualitative embedded research design, semi-structured interviews and exit surveys were conducted in three New Jersey public schools to study a sample of teachers and similarly situated professional staff to investigate the organizational and individual dimensions of FRD, the discretion used by people with family responsibilities, and perceptions of the emerging legal concept of FRD. This study is the first of its kind to examine FRD, as opposed to gender discrimination, in relation to career advancement of public sector employees, specifically public school professionals. The results of the analysis of the data, consisting of qualitative themes extracted from the interviews and descriptive statistics from the exit surveys, show that FRD causes teachers to use discretion at home and work, that current organizational factors not only fail to mitigate effects of FRD on the work/family balancing act but sometimes contribute to them, that there is a lack of awareness of the legal concept of FRD, and that FRD directly and indirectly impedes career advancement in the school system. Based on these preliminary results, recommendations for future research and action in the field are suggested.Ph. D.Includes bibliographical referencesIncludes vitaby Lauren Bock Mullin

Are language production problems apparent in adults who no longer meet diagnostic criteria for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder?
No full textIn this study, we examined sentence production in a sample of adults (N = 21) who had had attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) as children, but as adults no longer met DSM-IV diagnostic criteria (APA, 2000). This “remitted” group was assessed on a sentence production task. On each trial, participants saw two objects and a verb. Their task was to construct a sentence using the objects as arguments of the verb. Results showed more ungrammatical and disfluent utterances with one particular type of verb (i.e., participle). In a second set of analyses, we compared the remitted group to both control participants and a “persistent” group, who had ADHD as children and as adults. Results showed that remitters were more likely to produce ungrammatical utterances and to make repair disfluencies compared to controls, and they patterned more similarly to ADHD participants. Conclusions focus on language output in remitted ADHD, and the role of executive functions in language production

Schiffskollision, höhere Gewalt und autonome Schifffahrt ::eine deutsch-französische Untersuchung /
No full textFrom publisher's website: Samuel Vuattoux-Bock offers an interpretation of force majeure for autonomous shipping by examining their legal characteristics and their relationship in a French-German analysis. The author also proposes a new objective liability resulting from a ship collision and explores the design of force majeure in it.From publisher's website: Die autonome Schifffahrt wirft zahlreiche juristische Fragen auf. Samuel Vuattoux-Bock setzt sich mit der Frage der Haftung infolge einer Schiffskollision unter Beteiligung von autonomen Schiffen aus einer deutsch-französisch rechtsvergleichenden Perspektive auseinander. Die bisherigen Lösungen sehen einen Haftungsausschluss im Falle höherer Gewalt vor (IÜZ, BinSchG, Code des transports). Der Autor erforscht die rechtliche Beziehung zwischen den Merkmalen der höheren Gewalt (Unvorhersehbarkeit, Unvermeidbarkeit, äußere Ursache) und der autonomen Schifffahrt. Mithilfe einer deutsch-französischen Analyse bietet er eine Anpassung der Auslegung der höheren Gewalt für die autonome Schifffahrt an. De lege ferenda schlägt er eine neue objektive Haftung infolge einer Schiffskollision vor und untersucht die Gestaltung der höheren Gewalt in dieser neuen Haftung. Die vorgeschlagene Haftung findet ihre Grundlage in den rechtshistorischen Wurzeln des Seehandelsrechts (z.B. der Hanse) und ist durch ihre deutsch-französisch geprägte Ausgestaltung für eine internationale Harmonisierung geeignet
