Aprendizagens: a experiência metafísica em Clarice e Hesse
No full textComo construir uma experiência metafísica em literatura? Partindo dessa pergunta, o presente artigo visa problematizar a construção de uma experiência metafísica de caráter emancipatório em Clarice Lispector e Hermann Hesse, a partir de um olhar comparativo para dois romances de cada autor. Apoiando-se em Benedito Nunes e sua análise de Clarice Lispector, serão agenciados conceitos heideggerianos para problematizar a construção de cada uma das obras.Abstract: how to construct a metaphysical experience in literature? Starting from this question, the present article tries to reflect about the construction of an emancipatory-type metaphysical experience in Clarice Lispector and Hermann Hesse through a comparative analysis of two novels from each author. Based on Benedito Nunes and its analysis of Clarice Lispector, some Heidegger\u27s concepts are going to be used in order to structure the discussion of each work.Keywords: Dasein; Metaphysics; Clarice Lispector; Hermann Hesse; Comparative Literature
Hermann Hesse and Attractiveness of Southern Ticino
No full textL’article met en relation un auteur, Hermann Hesse, et sa région d’adoption, le Tessin. Partant du constat que tous les musées d’écrivains se ressemblent peu ou prou par ce qu’ils exposent et ce qu’ils vendent, le texte développe, dans une perspective de géographie humaniste, l’attachement aux lieux et au paysage de l’auteur, et l’expérience géographique fondamentale qu’en retire le visiteur. Il conclut sur le rôle visionnaire de l’artiste en matière de conflits d’aménagement du territoire à venir.The article connects an author, Hermann Hesse, with Ticino, the region that he made his own. Noting that all writers’ museums are similar in the material they display and sell, the text develops, from a humanistic geographical perspective, the author’s attachment to places and landscapes, and identifies the basic geographical experience of the visitor. In conclusion it dwells on the visionary role of the artist in terms of future land use conflicts
Copyright and Creativity: Authors and Photographers
No full textThe history of the occupations “author” and “photographer” provides an insightful perspective on copyright and creativity. The concept of the romantic author, associated with personal creative genius, gained prominence in the eighteenth century. However, in the U.S. in 1900 only about three thousand persons professed their occupation to be “author.” Self-professed “photographers” were then about ten times as numerous as authors. Being a photographer was associated with manufacturing and depended only on mastering technical skills and making a living. Being an author, in contrast, was an elite status associated with science and literature. Across the twentieth century, the number of writers and authors grew much more rapidly than the number of photographers. The relative success of writers and authors in creating jobs seems to have depended not on differences in copyright or possibilities for self- production, but on greater occupational innovation. Creativity in organizing daily work is an important form of creativity.occupations, authors, photographers, copyright law, economic history

Development and application of optical process monitoring and controlling for production of chalcopyrite thin film layers
No full textFür die industrielle Herstellung von chalkopyritbasierten Absorbern ist für die Einhaltung von Qualitätsstandards eine reproduzierbare Prozesskontrolle notwendig. Die benötigte Prozesskontrolle ist in der Lage die Bildung von Phasen während des Prozesses zu detektieren. In dieser Arbeit ist ein optisches Konzept dargelegt, welches während des Abscheidungsprozesses Aussagen über die strukturelle Zusammensetzung erlaubt. Dazu sind für zwei Prozessarten (die Herstellung von Cu(In,Ga)Se2 mittels des Drei-Stufen-Prozesses, sowie die Herstellung von Cu(In,Ga)S2 mittels des RTP Prozesses) die Anwendung von optischen Methoden gezeigt. Die beschriebenen Methoden basieren auf der Streuung und der Messung der direkten Reflektion. Zur Korrelation der strukturellen und optischen Informationen sind für die beiden Prozessarten zwei verschiedene Vorgehensweisen dargelegt. Bei der Entwicklung einer Prozesssteuerung für die Herstellung von Cu(In,Ga)Se2 durch den Drei-Stufen-Prozess ist eine Vielzahl von Abbruchexperimenten in Abhängigkeit der ersten beiden Stufen durchgeführt werden. Dabei wurden beide Stufen separiert voneinander untersucht. Für die erste Stufe wurde eine temperaturabhängige Analyse des Precursors durchgeführt, um die Phasenbildung der ersten Stufe zu verstehen. In der zweiten Stufe wurde eine Serie aus Abbruchexperimenten gewählt, um durch ex-situ bestimmte Phaseninformationen die Korrelation mit der in-situ gemessenen optischen Information auszuführen. Aus dieser Korrelation ist eine sinnvolle Beschreibung der optischen Signale für die ersten zwei Stufen gewonnen worden. Für die Entwicklung der Prozesskontrolle für Cu(In,Ga)S2 wurden die Erkenntnisse aus der Untersuchung des Drei-Stufen-Prozesses auf die RTP Herstellung des Cu(In,Ga)S2 transformiert. Dabei wurde ebenfalls die Korrelation zwischen optischen und strukturellen Messungen durchgeführt. Allerdings wurden die Phaseninformationen während des Prozesses in-situ bestimmt, wodurch eine genaue Korrelation möglich ist. Dabei wurde eine aufwendige Simulation der optischen Signale durchgeführt, die anhand der strukturellen Informationen den Bildungsprozess beschreibt.Industrial fabrication of chalkopyrite absorbers to comply with international quality standards recommends a reliable process control. The required process control has to detect phase changes during the process. This thesis presents an optical concept which allows investigations about the structural status of the depositing layers. Therefore two different process types (the three stage process for manufacturing of Cu(In,Ga)Se2 and the rapid thermal processing of Cu(In,Ga)S2) were monitored by optical methods. The described methods based upon the measurements of scattering and direct reflection. Therefore two different optical models were formed, which describes the optical measurements by structural formation of the layers during the process. The developing of a reliable process control for the deposition of Cu(In,Ga)Se2 by the three-stage process a huge number of break-off experiments were prepared to investigate the first two stages. Both stages were investigated separately. The first stage was investigated by a temperature variation of the precursor to understand the formation of these layers. For investigations of the second stage a series of break-off experiments with varied copper content was done to correlate the in-situ monitored optical signals by ex-situ measured structure information. By use of this correlation a senseful result was gained and presented in this thesis. The development of a process control for Cu(In,Ga)S2 was done by use of the acquired knowledge of the deposition of Cu(In,Ga)Se2 were transformed to the RTP deposition of Cu(In,Ga)S2. Also for these investigation the correlation between optical and structural was done. In difference the measuring of the structural properties was done by an in-situ method, therefore an exact correlation was possible. An experienced simulation of the structural formation and phase changes was applied to simulate the optical measurements during the process
Hermann Hesse et la musique
No full textThe present dissertation is divided in three major parts. In the first part, the author is analysing the role and the fundamental place that music occupied in his life : during his childhood, his tormented bodyhood (the relationship with his half-brother, the musician Theodor Isenberg, the impact of the pietistic environment, the salving part of the music...) and finallay, during his existence of a poet and writer (influence of the music on his private and marital life, exchanges and mutuality between him and numerous musicians...).The second part of this work is based on Hermann Hesses conception of music, his reflections about music, composers and their works, but also on his thoughts about the art of musical interpretation and the essence of all music. The last part is dedicated to the study of the music and writings of Hemann Hesse, more specifically in his novels Gertrud, Der Steppenwolf and Das GlasperlenspielCette thèse s'articule en trois grandes parties. Dans la première, l'auteur analyse le rôle et la place fondamentale qu'occupa la musique dans la vie de Hermann Hesse ; à savoir, durant son enfance, tout au long de son adolescence tourmentée (les relations avec son demi-frère musicien Théodore Isenberg, l'influence du milieu piétiste, le rôle salvateur de la musique...) et, enfin, dans sa vie de poète et d'écrivain (impact de la musique sur sa vie personnelle et amoureuse, échanges et réciprocité entre lui et ses nombreux amis musiciens...). La deuxième partie, quant à elle, s'attache à la conception de la musique de l'écrivain, à ses réflexions sur la musique, les compositeurs et leurs ?uvres, mais aussi à ses pensées sur l'art d'interprétation et sur l'essence de toute musique. Enfin, la troisième partie est consacrée à l'étude de la musique dans l'?uvre de Hermann Hesse, plus spécifiquement dans ses romans Gertrud, Der Steppenwolf et Das Glasperlenspie
