Thinking about "The tale of Maturanomiya" Princess Kayo
No full textapplication/pdfThis thesis especially discusses the Princess Kayo about “The tale of Maturanomiya” The influence of story preceding and a variety of is seen in “The tale of Maturanomiya”. A forming of princess Kayo also is influenced from preceding story. The purpose of this thesis is to clear what influences forming princess Kayo and to clear what does the story try by handling her. In this thesis, the influence of Naka no kimi at “Yoru no nezame” and Murasaki no ue at “The Tale of Genji’” pointed out first. These women was shouldering suffering. Because they have to do count on a man who has other women. The same thing can be said also to princess Kayo. Therefore, I pointed out it that she is is a successor of these women. Though she was a successor in the one side that is certainly, the problem, that is, their “Suffer of the woman” is not made a focus. This reason is that the problem, “Suffer of the woman” changes in quality at this story. This problem do not focus in women’s mind but focuses a man who becomes dilemma among women. This story depicts a man assuming that it is cool. The very important fact is Princess Kayo having been influenced another person is not only two people but also princess Shikishi. She was a woman of author（Fuziwara no Sadaie）’s yearning. The author had him accomplish the desire that ended in the yearning in the story in the reality. This story made situation fall in love by such a woman, and careless in woman’s feelings. In a word, this story of the man, by the man, for the man. In the near future,I am going to think about the problem of two heroines of the remainder. I want to continue thinking about this story, to a total.departmental bulletin pape
Archival Resources Reimagined: a Feminist Examination of the "Latin American Twentieth-century Pamphlets"
No full textIn this practicum report, I use the insights afforded by feminist scholarship and theory to analyze my experience examining the Latin American Twentieth-Century Pamphlets collection at Special Collections & University Archives, Rutgers University Libraries, a collection assembled by Robert Jackson Alexander, 1918-2010. I focus in Brazil and Guyana collections and identify political beliefs and perspectives that uncover different actors and forces in these two countries, acknowledging discriminatory structures or alternative accounts of history. I also examine the issue of organization and access tools in the management of archives and their usefulness to organize this type of collection. Finally, I present the insights on uncovered resources, along with my readings on the transnational dimensions of politics and ideologies in both collections as an area for a valuable intervention for archivists and librarians to undertake.This practicum report was submitted to fulfill the requirements for the M.A. degree in Women's and Gender Studies (2010).

Public Health Approach to Etiology of Cerebrovasular Accidents
No full textThough there are many studies of cerebrovascular accidents from etiological point of view, few have been reported concerning impacts of daily life to cerebrovascular accidents from the view point of public health. The author examined the interactions between human factors and his environment in the cases of cerebrovascular accidents in two areas and one group of workers. The 227 objects were selected to discuss from the patients and the dead in two rural areas by examining answeres to questionnaires, medical records by doctors, and dath certificates. The results are as follows. 1) There was a difference of incidence of cerebrovascular accidents between those two areas it was 4.35 per 1,000 adults over 40 years in Kayo, whereas 6.20 in Yao. 2) Cerebrovascular accidents often occurred at either dinning and bath room in the evening or toilet in the midnight. 3) The impacts of climate was not clear in Yao where the climate is calm, on the conrary there were observed two peaks of incidence in summer and winter in Kayo where the climate is sever. 4) There were found more frequently cerebral hemorrahge than cerebral thrombosis among male farmers in those two areas. 5) The author pointed out that not only natural impacts but also soci-economical and cultural background to cerebrovascular accidents must be discussed, such as organization of labour and so forth. 6) There were observed the evidence that chronic CS(2) exposure resulted in high incidence of hypetention and cerebrovascular accidents
<Research Notes>Teaching Argumentative Writing through a Process-focused Instruction: The Effects of the Prewriting Activity on Student Perceived Learning
No full text本稿は、思考整理に焦点をあてた協働的なライティング活動がいかに学生のライティング学習に影響するかを分析し、本活動の妥当性を纏めたものである。具体的には、主体的・対話的で深い学びを意識したライティング指導の一環として、執筆前の協働的ライティング活動(プレライティング活動)をプロジェクト発信型英語プログラムの授業に導入し、プロセス重視の指導を展開した。何をどう書いてよいか分からない学生に独自に構築した補助教材を提示し、論理的且つ客観的に思考を整理する機会を可能な限り与え、執筆前の思考整理の方法とその重要性を強調した。本活動が学生の学習に及ぼす影響をアンケートにより検証したところ、学生の思考を活発化させ、アカデミックライティングにおける根本的・基礎的知識を習得させる効果があったと言えよう。本研究は、ライティング指導に従事されている関係者にとって教育的示唆を伴う一例となるであろう。This article describes an exploratory study investigating the effects of prewriting activities on students' perceptions of their own learning. The author implemented a process-focused activity in a project-based English program during the spring semester of 2016, and here discusses the findings of the study. The participating students were 80 sophomores in the College of Life Sciences and Pharmaceutical Sciences. The students were provided with two support worksheets to logically organize their critical thoughts and arguments prior to the start of the writing task. During the process, they conducted a core writing task, in which key concepts and a logical order were identified, and then developed an organizational structure for writing an academic paper. Web-based questionnaires, including a free description element, were conducted before and after the prewriting process, in order to evaluate the participants' perceived achievements. The results demonstrated that the process had a positive influence on students' perceptions of their learning. The author therefore concludes that the prewriting activity did enhance students' learning. This empirical study illustrates that prewriting activity can refocus students' attention on the fundamentals of an academic paper: the importance of establishing an argumentation with logical flow, and of strengthening the linkage between sentences. Furthermore, the process-focused activity improves students' cognitive processes, and activates their ability to think analytically. Indeed, said cognitive ability may become a potential resource to improve their writing in the future. It is therefore suggested that the teaching of argumentative writing should take a more process-focused approach
Alexander of Aphrodisias and De Interpretatione: The Case of the Proposition
No full textThis article considers a passage in Alexander of Aphrodisias' commentary on the Prior Analytics (in APr., 10, 13-28) concerning the definition of irporaut; (premiss or proposition). Its interest lies in the fact that Alexander establishes a very articulated relationship between the defmition of /cookout; that we find in Aristotle's Prior Analytics (24a16-17) and that of arcotpavrixo; kayo; (proposition) in De interpretatione (4, 17a2-3). Nonetheless, the author aims to demonstrate that this relationship is problematic and unnecessary because the definition of /cookout; in Prior Analytics is in fact independent from the definition of eurocavruce; koyoc. However, it is also the author's intention to show why Alexander does this
<Research Notes>Reviewing the Effect of First-language Use as a Writing Strategy
No full text本稿は、日本のEFL(English as a Foreign Language)環境における母語を礎にする外国語教育に示唆を与えるため、国内外の母語使用に関する先行研究を通じて「外国語教育における母語運用の有効性」についての考察を纏めたものである。具体的には、(1)母語運用の利益を享受する学習者の外国語レベル、(2)母語運用を促すべき用途、(3)母語運用が効果的なタスクの観点から様々な事例を考察した。次に、母語を運用すべき外国語ライティングプロセスを解明するため、Börner(1987)が構築した外国語ライティングプロセスのモデルに「母語」の要素が組み込まれているプロセス(i.e., 「計画」と「文章化」)に焦点を絞り、それぞれのプロセスにおける母語使用に関する事例を考察した。結果、全レベルの学習者に母語運用の意義が有ること、認知負荷がかかるタスクにおける包括的箇所での母語運用が有益であることが示唆された。外国語の力が初級・中級レベルの学習者は「母語でのアイデア創出や内容構成(計画)」から「外国語での言語表現(文章化)」への移行が困難であり、この両者の橋渡し部分(i.e., 母語文章形成化:「計画」で創出したアイデア・内容の構成を母語で発展的に整える認知的言語活動)を意識的に図る必要があると言えよう。With the attempts to foster students' English writing skills, the use of the first-language (L1) has been considered an important writing strategy in the field of second-language (L2) education. This systematic literature review of learners' L1 use during their L2 writing process aims to investigate (1) which level of L2 learners could benefit from the merits of employing their L1, (2) how the use of L1 differs according to each L2 level, and (3) which tasks require L2 learners to use their L1 as a writing strategy. Considering these findings and based on Börner's 1987 L2 writing model, the author further examines which writing process would benefit from the merits of L1 use. Based on the discussion, the conclusion confirms that L1 use would be productive in L2 writing for all levels of L2 learners. The use of L1 during the L2 writing process should focus on overall structure and content concerns in tasks requiring a high cognitive load. This could benefit L2 learners by enabling them to effectively develop the content area in their L2 writing. Especially for learners with low or intermediate-level English, ideas generated and organized in the process of planning cannot be smoothly translated into the L2. Therefore, it is suggested that an L1 formulating activity as a writing strategy (i.e., a cognitive activity of developing ideas into further formulating an L1 written draft) be emphasized in the teaching of argumentative writing

No full textDistribution of benzimidazole-resistant strains of the onion gray-mold neck rot pathogens, Botrytis aclada and Botrytis allii, in Hokkaido, Japan
No full textBotrytis aclada and Botrytis allii, associated with onion gray-mold neck rot and isolated in Hokkaido, were tested for sensitivity to benzimidazole. Of the B. aclada strains, 59% were highly resistant and the remaining 41% were sensitive; all strains of B. allii were sensitive. Resistant strains were widespread in Hokkaido. We analyzed the sequences of the beta-tubulin gene of resistant strains and detected the replacement of glutamic acid (GAG) by lysine (AAG) at codon 198. This is the first report of benzimidazole resistance in B. aclada. This study revealed a difference in fungicide sensitivity between the two Botrytis species
