    Allegory and Symbolism in the Scarlet Letter

    Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina. Centro de Comunicação e ExpressãoEste trabalho tem por objetivo descrever as causas subjacentes ao complexo sentido do romance the Scarlet Letter, de Hawthorne. Tenta mostrar que este sentido é produzido pela tensão não resolvida entre duas forças contraditórias - alegoria e simbolismo. A alegoria é um dispositivo retórico tradicional que reduz toda a realidade a noções claras e unilaterais. Ela tende assim, a concentrar o sentido num único enunciado

    An analysis of personality type and perception of a call to the ministry

    This restricted item is available to students and faculty of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary through the URI below.This dissertation is an analysis of personality type and perception of a call to the ministry. A concern exists regarding the deficiency of any widely accepted model for determining the presence or absence of a definitive call to the ministry. The S T A N D Model, created by the researcher, is proposed as a possible model with both etymological and epistemological foundations. The Keirsey Temperament Sorter II is discussed briefly and then presented as the personality inventory chosen for the research. Precedent literature identifies insights offered by authors concerning perception of a call to the ministry. These insights are appropriately aligned with each of the five components of the S T A N D Model as presented by the researcher. A brief review of personality inventories follows, with rationale for selecting the Keirsey Personality Sorter II over the others as the personality profile of choice for the research. The research design for this study is a correlation and causality model, which explores the relationship between personality types as revealed through the Keirsey Temperament Sorter II, and the components or variables represented in the S T A N D Model presented by the researcher. A list of fifteen questions, triangulated to represent the five components of the S T A N D Model, comprises the Call to Ministry Survey. An expert panel representing over 100 years of ministerial experience gives final vote of confidence to the Call to Ministry Survey that, along with the Keirsey Personality Sorter II, allowing them both to be administered in a regular dorm meeting to over 200 students of Boyce College. This undergraduate school of The Southem Baptist Seminary was specifically founded for the express purpose of training young people who are at least considering a call to the ministry. The findings suggest that all five components of the S T A N D Model surface among students called to the ministry. The data further suggests that of the five components to a call to the ministry, Authority (especially among Artisans and Guardians) and iNtuition (especially among Idealists and Rationals) appear most frequently. The results also clearly show that strength of personality has little or no bearing whatsoever on the strength of a call to the ministry. Further research is encouraged concerning possible relationships between perception of a call to the ministry and gender, age, ministry track, undergraduate vs. graduate students, Christian upbringing, children of ministers, denominational affiliation, U.S. demographics, cultural differences, and growth in understanding of a call to the ministry

    We report precision measurements of the Feynman x (xF) dependence, and first measurements of the transverse momentum (pT) dependence, of transverse single-spin asymmetries for the production of π0 mesons from polarized proton collisions at √s=200  GeV. The xF dependence of the results is in fair agreement with perturbative QCD model calculations that identify orbital motion of quarks and gluons within the proton as the origin of the spin effects. Results for the pT dependence at fixed xF are not consistent with these same perturbative QCD-based calculations.22222001(6)10

    Sources of the Great Moderation: shocks, friction, or monetary policy?

    No full text
    We study the sources of the Great Moderation by estimating a variety of medium-scale DSGE models that incorporate regime switches in shock variances and in the inflation target. The best-fit model, the one with two regimes in shock variances, gives quantitatively different dynamics in comparison with the benchmark constant-parameter model. Our estimates show that three kinds of shocks accounted for most of the Great Moderation and business-cycle fluctuations: capital depreciation shocks, neutral technology shocks, and wage markup shocks. In contrast to the existing literature, we find that changes in the inflation target or shocks in the investment-specific technology played little role in macroeconomic volatility. Moreover, our estimates indicate much less nominal rigidities than those suggested in the literature.Econometric models ; Business cycles

    We present measurements of net charge fluctuations in Au+Au collisions at √sNN=19.6, 62.4, 130, and 200 GeV, Cu+Cu collisions at √sNN=62.4 and 200 GeV, and p+p collisions at √s=200 GeV using the dynamical net charge fluctuations measure ν+-,dyn. We observe that the dynamical fluctuations are nonzero at all energies and exhibit a modest dependence on beam energy. A weak system size dependence is also observed. We examine the collision centrality dependence of the net charge fluctuations and find that dynamical net charge fluctuations violate 1/Nch scaling but display approximate 1/Npart scaling. We also study the azimuthal and rapidity dependence of the net charge correlation strength and observe strong dependence on the azimuthal angular range and pseudorapidity widths integrated to measure the correlation.2024906(14)7

    We study the sources of the Great Moderation by estimating a variety of medium-scale dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) models that incorporate regime switches in shock variances and the inflation target. The best-fit model—the one with two regimes in shock variances—gives quantitatively different dynamics compared with the benchmark constant-parameter model. Our estimates show that three kinds of shocks accounted for most of the Great Moderation and business-cycle fluctuations: capital depreciation shocks, neutral technology shocks, and wage markup shocks. In contrast to the existing literature, we find that changes in the inflation target or shocks in the investment-specific technology played little role in macroeconomic volatility. Moreover, our estimates indicate considerably fewer nominal rigidities than the literature suggests.Econometric models
