    Confusões de escala e espelhamentos em Instantâneo da desmedida, de Vilma Arêas

    No full text
    This article aims to analyze the mirroring present in “Instantâneo da desmedida,” the penultimate text in Um beijo por mês (2018), by Vilma Arêas. By locating her character in an art gallery with photographs of diferente scales, the author enables an endless game capable of generating reflections around literary art itself, since the arrangement of objects articulates occurrences that disturb the spectator, confusing her as to the real scale of scenes and spaces, like the “snapshots” of Arêas's volume. Based on these considerations, we highlight mise en abyme as one of the foundations of Vilma Arêas' writing. To this end, the proposal for a possible analysis of the mentioned text is launched here from the formulations of Lucien Dallenbach (1979; 1977; 1972), among other theorists. Furthermore, André Malraux's (2006; 1996) reflections on the imaginary museum will help in the discussion.Este artículo busca analizar el reflejo presente en Instantâneo da desmedida, penúltimo texto de  Um beijo por mês (2018), de Vilma Arêas. Al crear un personaje que, en una visita a una galería de arte, se encuentra con fotografías de diferentes escalas, el autor permite un juego abismal capaz de generar reflexiones en torno al arte literario, ya que la disposición de los objetos articula acontecimientos que perturban a la espectadora, confundiéndola en cuanto a la escala real de escenas y espacios, como las "instantáneas" del volumen de Arêas. En base a estas consideraciones, destacamos mise en abyme como uno de los fundamentos de la escritura de Vilma Arêas. Con este fin, la propuesta para un posible análisis del texto mencionado se lanza aquí a partir de las formulaciones de Lucien Dallenbach (1979; 1977; 1972), entre otros teóricos. Además, las reflexiones de André Malraux (2006; 1996) sobre el museo imaginario ayudarán en la discusión.Este artigo busca analisar o espelhamento presente em Instantâneo da desmedida, penúltimo texto de Um beijo por mês (2018), de Vilma Arêas.

    Suspension of boundaries: transdifferentiation in Vilma Vukelić’s memoirs. A contribution to the retention of Austrian literature and culture in post-1918 Croatia

    No full text
    The memoirs of the Croatian-Austrian author Vilma Vukelić capture the identity of the city of Osijek at the turn of the 19th and the 20th centuries, as well as the personal identity of the author, who is first portrayed as a child and then as a young girl, Vilma. Earlier analyses of the text were based on multicultural perspectives which provide only a superficial insight into the complex processes of identity formation as it is described in Tragovi prošlosti (the original title: Spuren der Vergangenheit). The article thus presents the culturalist concept of transdifference developed by Breinig and Lösch. The core of the concept is a process of identity formation which flows through differences while suspending the imposed binary structure, without revoking them. The method has proved to be effective and brought a new perspective on belonging and alterity in the multicultural imperial setting

    Designing a Shared Listening Experience for an Audiobook Streaming Service : A UX and UI Project

    No full text
    This study, done in collaboration with Storytel, aimed to investigate whether a shared audiobook live listening experience would add value to users of the Storytel app and how such a feature could be designed in terms of User Experience and User Interface. The purpose was to determine the minimal viable product (MVP) and if live listening with others is interesting in itself or else, what is the most basic interaction type required in connection to the listening. The aim was also to design the optimal solution, beyond technical, time and/or prioritization constraints. The method used was a combination of the IDEO design process with three phases (Inspiration, Ideation and Implementation), and Holtzblatt and Beyer’s (2016) five steps of Contextual Design (Gathering User Data, Compiling User Data, Ideation with User Data, Defining the Product and Making it Real). To investigate user opinions and requirements, surveys were sent out to Storytel users and authors on the four markets Sweden, Denmark, the Netherlands and India, resulting in a total of 448 responses. Based on this data, an extensive design work in three phases was carried out to achieve the result of a final design prototype of a live listening feature inside the Storytel app. In order to validate the design choices continuously in each phase, 15 user tests were achieved, whereof 4 initial tests, 10 interactive user tests and 1 focus group interview. The results show that there is certainly an interest for such a feature among some users, and the interest is bigger if an author participates. In general, users on the Indian market are more interested in the feature than users on the European markets. Authors are more interested than the average user in live listening and interacting with its listeners. An important finding was that the feature must include an element of interaction to make it relevant and interesting to users, which is why a prototype including emoji reactions was proposed as an MVP. In this version, the possibility to discuss is linked to an outsourced forum such as Google Meet. For the optimal design, a chat was included inside the application as this was concluded highly desired by users

    Aplicación de las metáforas y la realidad virtual en bibliotecas: El proyecto VILMA

    The evolution of user interfaces has been mainly guided by a single principle: the challenge of approximating the design model of the system to the user. During the last years a new trend has been arising in the user interface design field: the virtual reality, that it can be considered as a natural progress in the human computer interaction evolution.Digital libraries can take advantage of virtual reality as VILMA (VIrtual Library with a Multi-layer Architecture) does. This digital library uses the traditional library metaphor. (Author)La evolución de las interfaces de usuario se ha guiado básicamente por un principio: el reto de aproximar el modelo de diseño del sistema al usuario. En los últimos años se ha ido desarrollando una nueva tendencia en el diseño de las interfaces de usuario, la realidad virtual, que puede ser considerada como una progresión natural en la evolución de la interacción persona-ordenador. Las bibliotecas electrónicas pueden aprovecharse de las ventajas de la realidad virtual como lo hace VILMA (VIrtual Library with a Multi-layer Architecture). Se presenta esta biblioteca electrónica, que utiliza la metáfora de la biblioteca tradicional mediante el uso de la realidad virtual. (Autor

    Diálogos intertextuais e traços memorialísticos em A solidão mais funda, de Ângela Vilma

    ABSTRACT: This article analyzes the poetic production of the book A solidão mais funda, by the author from Bahia Ângela Vilma, from the perspective that there are two movements in the work. In the first, there are poems that try to dialogue with canonical authors, such as Fernando Pessoa, Cecília Meireles, Vinícius de Moraes, Carlos Drummond de Andrade, Manuel Bandeira, among others. In the second, there is a memorialistic trace, heir above all from Herberto Sales, an author whose work the poet had read since her adolescence. For this, we use the concepts of remembrance and reminiscence of Walter Benjamin (1892-1940), according to which the writer's act of remembering comes not only from his recollection, but also articulates memory and creative imagination, which is also treated by Gaston Bachelard (1884-1962). Thus, the poet starts from recollections, consciously or unconsciously: sometimes reconfiguring them according to the imagination of the lyrical self, sometimes fictionalizing them, making the reader live again their subjectivities.RESUMO: O presente artigo analisa a produção poética do livro A solidão mais funda, da autora baiana Ângela Vilma, sob a perspectiva de que existem, na obra, dois movimentos. No primeiro, poemas que ensaiam dialogar com autores canônicos, como Fernando Pessoa, Cecília Meireles, Vinícius de Moraes, Carlos Drummond de Andrade, Manuel Bandeira, entre outros. No segundo, está presente o traço memorialístico, herdeiro sobretudo de Herberto Sales, autor cuja obra a poeta lia desde a adolescência. Para isso, valemo-nos dos conceitos de recordação e reminiscência de Walter Benjamim (1892-1940), segundo o qual, o ato de lembrar do escritor provém não só de sua rememoração, como também articula memória e imaginação criativa, que também é tratado Gaston Bachelard (1884-1962). Assim, a poeta parte de rememorações, consciente ou inconscientemente: ora reconfigurando-as segundo a imaginação do eu-lírico, ora ficcionalizando-as, fazendo o leitor reviver suas subjetividades. &nbsp

    Päihtyneen potilaan kohtaaminen päivystyksessä- Kuvaileva kirjallisuuskatsaus

    No full text
    Tämän opinnäytetyön toimeksiantajana toimi Peijaksen sairaalan yhteispäivystys. Peijaksen sairaala on osa HUS Helsingin yliopistollista sairaalaa. Opinnäytetyön tarkoituksena oli kuvata päivystyksessä työskentelevien sairaanhoitajien kokemuksia ja haasteita alkoholista päihtyneen potilaan kohtaamisessa. Tavoitteena oli lisätä tietoa haasteista liittyen päihdepotilaan kohtaamiseen ja hoitoon päivystysympäristössä ja luoda kehitysideoita sairaanhoitajille kohtaamisen ja hoidon tueksi. Teoreettinen viitekehys sisälsi tietoa päihtymyksestä ja siihen liittyvistä mielenterveysongelmista, ahdistuneisuudesta ja itsetuhoisuudesta, päihtyneen potilaan kohtaamisesta päivystyksessä, sote-uudistuksesta, päivystyksestä toimintaympäristönä sekä alkoholista päihtyneestä potilaasta päivystyksessä. Tutkimusmenetelmänä tässä opinnäytetyössä käytettiin kuvailevaa kirjallisuuskatsausta. Tiedonhaussa käytetyt tietokannat olivat Medic, Melinda, Arto, Cinahl, Google Scholar ja Google. Tiedonhaku tuotti yhteensä seitsemän lopullisesti hyväksyttyä tutkimusta, jotka analysoitiin käyttäen menetelmänä induktiivista sisällönanalyysia. Analyysin perusteella tuloksista muodostui kaksi yläluokkaa, jotka olivat vuorovaikutus potilaan ja hoitajan välillä sekä koulutuksen merkitys osaamiseen. Tutkimukset osoittivat haasteita päihdepotilaan kohtaamisessa potilaan aggressiivisen tai häiritsevän käytöksen vuoksi. Sairaanhoitajilla huomattiin olevan myös negatiivista asennoitumista päihdepotilaisiin. Rauhallisen, avoimen ja motivoivan kohtaamisen todettiin vaikuttavan positiivisesti hoitoon sitoutumisessa. Sairaanhoitajat kokivat päihde-, turvallisuus- ja eettisen osaamisen tärkeiksi. Tulosten perusteella olisi hyvä selvittää Peijaksen päivystyksen hoitohenkilökunnan osaamista, asenteita ja kokemuksia päihdepotilaan kohtaamisessa ja hoidossa. Jatkokehittämisideana ehdotetaan hoitohenkilökunnalle järjestettäviä päihde- ja psykiatrian lisäkoulutuksia ja verkkokursseja työn tueksi

    Ekoprenörskap : ett sätt att skapa värde för kunder

    No full text
    Syftet med uppsatsen är att studera affärsmodeller hos ekoprenöriella företag, det vill säga företag grundade och baserade på hållbara principer, för att utveckla en större förståelse för hur dess delar kan leda till värdeskapande för kunder. Halla Halla har valts som fallföretag för att de har kunder som köpt från dem flera gånger, och kan därmed anses skapa värde för dessa, samt för att grundarna är ekoprenörer som bedriver produktion av badkläder gjorda av återvunnet material. Företaget verkar inom modebranschen där ​fast fashion​ är ett vanligt fenomen som innebär att mode och trender bidrar till snabb konsumtion, i många fall på bekostnad av miljön. I teoriavsnittet kombineras nio underkategorier ifrån Osterwalders et al. (2010) Business model canvas, översatt kanvasmodellen, tillsammans med Jung Choos et al. (2012) fyra faktorer för värdeskapande för kund, i en framtagen analysmodell. De fyra faktorerna för värdeskapande utgörs av pris, kvalitet, fördelar kontra kostnader och subjektivt värde. Analysmodellen används som ett verktyg för undersökning av fallföretagets affärsmodell och därigenom skapande av kundvärde. Det empiriska materialet i uppsatsen har främst baserats på två mailintervjuer med Halla Hallas grundare samt kundintervjuer med tio av deras kunder. Resultatet tyder på att affärsmodellen hos ekoprenöriella företag leder till värdeskapande för kunder på olika sätt. För företag vars målgrupp är unga kvinnor kan Instagram vara en lämplig plattform för att sprida sitt budskap. Det kan också vara av betydelse för företag att ha fungerande samarbeten med nyckelpartners, med vilka man tillsammans kan se till att produkter håller hög kvalitet. I dagens samhälle, där fast fashion är ett växande problem, är det även viktigt för företag att ha god förståelse för hållbarhetsproblemen vi står inför och skapa unika produktidéer motiverade av detta

    ANALYSIS OF ADAPTATION PROCESS AB “GRIGEO” CASE VILMA ULINSKĖ Bachelor thesis Management and business administration programme Vilnius University, Faculty of Economics and Business administration Supervisor – assoc. prof. dr. Roma Adomaitienė Vilnius, 2021 Summary 74 pages, 27 pictures, 8 tables, 41 references. The main purpose of this paper is, based on detailed literature analysis of adaptation process and tools applied, to adapt and use the knowledge, gained by this method, for researching the adaptation process of the selected company and providing practical suggestions for process improvement. The work consists of two main parts: literature analysis, the research, its results and proposals for process improvement. Literature analysis reviews the concepts of adaptation and socialization, their differences and similarities, examines in detail, the stages of the process presented by different authors and the tools used in it, identifies the benefits of the adaptation process and its tools for companies. After the literature analysis, author continued researching the adaptation process and tools of the selected company, by using interview and questionnaire methods. Information, received by interviewing Recruitment and Talent Acquisition Group Manager, was used to create questionnaires. 2 questionnaires were created: for employees, who are working in a company a year and less, and to their direct managers. The main purpose of the interview was to examine all segments of the adaptation process from the perspective of the Human Resources Department. The purpose of the questionnaires was to find out whether the adaptation process creates a system, and whether the tools used are effective. The performed research revealed that not all the tools are effective and even not used for part of employees, the process does not create a system. The conclusions and recommendations summarize the main concepts of literature analysis and the results of the performed research. Suggestions include practical proposals, created or renewed by the author, how to improve the process. Few of it are included in to the company HR Management Procedure

    of thesis Diagnostics of neuroinfection caused by human herpesviruses using nucleic acid amplification methods author: MUDr. Klára Labská supervisor: doc. MUDr. Vilma Marešová, CSc. In recent years, the diagnosis of neuroinfections has undergone a shift towards molecular biology methods. Our research focused on the predictive value of the capture of herpesvirus (HV) DNA in cerebrospinal fluid. In the first study, we examined the presence of DNA neurotropic herpes viruses (HSV1, HSV2, VZV and HHV6) in cerebrospinal fluid in immunocompetent patients with laboratory-confirmed tick-borne meningoencephalitis and enterovirus meningitis and meningoencephalitis. The control group consisted of patients with proven absence of an inflammation in the cerebrospinal fluid. Patients were followed for 6 months. The course of the disease and its consequences, including laboratory tests, were compared between groups of patients with and without the presence of HV DNA. In the second study, we tried to demonstrate the presence of HSV1 DNA in cerebrospinal fluid during its symptomatic reactivation in patients with purulent meningitis. In our group of immunocompetent patients with non-purulent inflammation in the cerebrospinal fluid, the proportion of HV DNA positive patients reached 7.5% (13 out of 173), we also..
