Saul Bellow and the evolution of the American masculine experience: a study on Dangling Man, The Victim and Seize the Day
No full textThe following thesis studies the philosophical and sociological background of three novels written by Saul Bellow between 1944 and 1956, namely Dangling Man, The Victim, and Seize the Day. During this period, the place of the individual in society changed rapidly and this created tension between the social organisation in place and individuals who struggled to find their place in society. The focus on individuality in Saul Bellow's early novels has led to the consensus that the author conveys ideas which relate to the philosophical current of Existentialism. This association has shadowed other aspects of these three novels such as their sociological relevancy. The purpose of this thesis is to expand upon the existentialist focus present in most criticism in order to demonstrate the sociological evolution of the American masculine experience. In turn, this aims to highlight the shift from a traditional image of masculinity based on heroism, personal ambition, and restrictive emotionality to a masculine identity more inclined to question its perception of itself and the world. To do so, it relates each novel to influential studies conducted at the time to offer an evolutionary perspective of the American masculine identity within that particular time-frame. For each novel, it exposes the male protagonist's struggles with social organisation to offer a valuable insight in the treatment and evolution of the masculine identity in Saul Bellow's early novels. Altogether, this thesis aims to develop connections between Saul Bellow's fiction and the historical challenges faced by American males in urban America
Il “Saul” di Vittorio Alfieri
No full textMy paper analyzes Vittorio Alifieri’s tragedy Saul. The author writes the tragedy after reading
the Bible, and particularly Samuel’s first book. Alfieri is enthusiastic about the biblical text,
thanks to its “sublime” theme and style, very useful for adapting the story as a tragedy. Alfieri
creates Saul without betraying the spirit of the source text – he underlines the king of Israel’s
ambivalent behavior toward his son-in-law David, whom he loves and hates at the same time.
From this perspective, Saul is quite a different character from the other “tyrants” from Alfieri’s
other tragedies. In his own words, the author finds in Saul «that uncertainty of the human heart,
so magical; so, a man loving two loves opposite to one another, wants and does not want the very
same thing. This uncertainty is one of the major secrets for generating emotion and suspension in
a theatre». And Alfieri makes it. He himself plays Saul on stage, many times, since he considers
him his “dearest” character – according to the author, in this character there is «everything,
absolutely everything». Moreover, Saul has been staged with the most famous actors all along the
Nineteenth and Twentieth century

Take a moment to think about this very closely; they might not be speaking to you in a verbal form, but they are surely communicating messages to you in way only you can understand. Could this means they could feel, think, just the way we do? Perhaps. Objects are often part of language, sometimes even before they exist. These objects become social or cultural artifacts well before they are used by living things. Objects "meanings" and "functions" are framed within the constrains of a cultural group. We assign them significance because of what they do, and what they are made off. Shapes, colors, matter, and the combinations of the three build pretty much everything in our observable universe. We just interpret what they might be. If we are made of the same matter, why not think that they might be "alive" too, with feelings and ideas of their own. We will never know what they really want, but we can sure interpret what they are trying to communicate. Contemporary artist make works that engage with viewers about theories of symbolic communication and strategies of analysis. Many of them use text simply for its ability to communicate meaning that are difficult to express in images alone; to convey ideas, descriptions, arguments, and possibly, the interpretation of what the objects someone interacts with, are trying to say.Visual and Performing Arts
Saul Who Also Is Called Paul
No full textFrom the time of Origen and of Rufinus and St. Jerome the question of the apparent change of the apostle's name from Saul to Paul has interested students of the New Testament. The problem is due to the fact that the author of the Acts in briefly giving an account of Paul's meeting with the Roman governor of Cyprus, Sergius Paullus, and with the false prophet Elymas, simply states: “Then Saul (who also is called Paul) filled with the Holy Ghost, set his eyes on him, etc.” Before this verse in Acts the apostle's name is invariably given as Saul, and after this verse he is always called Paul, except in two passages where there is reference to the very beginning of his career, his conversion. In his letters the name Paul, and never Saul, is used.</jats:p

Saul az endori boszorkánynál – kísérlet egy ószövetségi történet újraértelmezésére
No full textSaul at the Witch of Endor – Attempt at Reinterpreting an Old Testament Story.
The study makes an attempt at reinterpreting the story of Saul visiting the witch of Endor. The author claims that the intuitive storytelling of the Bible carries much more than information regarding old personalities, like existential messages, which are suitable for the contemporary readers. The starting point of the interpretation is that the whole story of Saul describes the process of a man’s burn out. It takes sever-al steps of the syndrome and tries to prove through the elements of Saul’s story, how the anamnesis of this mental illness can be applied to the Old Testament figure. The study also tries to avoid the demonization of the witch of Endor, who proves to be the person showing care and mercy for the king. It also tries to formulate several messages that are useful in the application of the story in religious education of church services

No full textLa investigación a continuación, comprende la implementación de un sistema de
abastecimiento en una empresa del sector textil. De manera que se desarrollen de forma
eficiente el manejo de las compras y el almacenamiento de insumos que forman parte en la
producción de ropa de algodón.
Con la implementación de un sistema de abastecimiento se logrará ordenar, estabilizar
y estandarizar los procesos. Se debe resaltar que a partir de esta implementación, el área
de logística podrá utilizar metodologías para poder agilizar sus tareas, ahorrando tiempo y
costos.
Adicionalmente se podrá analizar la situación actual de trabajo, determinando así el
aporte por parte de los colaboradores y el empleador. Se podrán cuantificar los beneficios
que obtendrá la empresa en esta implementación, midiendo indicadores óptimos para
analizar el impacto que tiene este procedimiento de implementación.
Este proyecto también tiene como objetivo dejar establecido un canal estandarizado
para que otras áreas puedan implementar lo respectivo para también poder obtener
beneficios que se convertirán en una ventaja competitiva, eliminando las operaciones que
no den valor agregado a los procesos para finalmente poder implementar un sistema de
gestión alineado a las necesidades tanto de la empresa como del cliente.
Cabe resaltar que un sistema informático que nos permita manipular la información y
poder procesarla con agilidad, hoy en día, es una necesidad. Por lo que un ERP presenta
varias ventajas para que podamos obtener lo antes mencionado.Tesi

No full textSaul Ascher's first work, Bemerkungen ueber die buergerliche Verbesserung der Juden, veranlasst durch die Frage: Soll der Jude Soldat werden (1788), included a call to the Jews to relinquish their way of life and prejudices in order to obtain civic emancipation. Nevertheless he rejected military service as long as the Jews did not enjoy full emancipation and equality. Saul Ascher (1767 - 1882), author, philosopher, and pioneer of religious reform, was born in Berlin and was heavily influenced by the Kantian philosophy. (Source: EJ)Digitizatio
