Andre Gide and the Negro, 1940
No full textBecause it is generally known that Andre Gide is one of France's most influential contemporary writers, there is no need to justify a study based on his works. Desirous of obtaining the opinion of an influential white author concerning Negroid people and learning his activities in their behalf, the writer of this thesis undertook the study, Andre Gide end the Negro. The value of such a study to the American Negro lies primarily in (1) a better acquaintance with and appreciation for one whose interest in darker people has resulted in a tangible contribution; (2) a knowledge of the condition of a people, who, though distant in territory, are kindred in race, and (3) a challenge for scholastic accomplishment. The method of procedure was a careful analysis of Voyage au Congo and Retour du Tchad supplemented by collateral readings. To secure information concerning Mr. Gide's official investigation in 1938 of the natives' educational facilities in Senegal, a letter was sent him. Despite the anxiety which must be his because of the present war in which his country is involved, the eminent author found time to respond. His reply is quoted on page thirty-one of this study. Grateful acknowledgment is hereby given both Mr. Gide for his amicable letter and Professor Cook, who made such a contact possible. The various factors for the evolution of Gide's interest in Negroid people are shown in Chapter I. Chapter II contains a discussion of the colonial abuses existing in French Equatorial Africa exposed by Gide and his efforts to eradicate these. Through Chapter III one learns the author's personal impression of the morale and intelligence of Negroid people. In Chapter IV an interpretation of Gide's literary art in Voyage au Gang and Retour du Tchad is presented. The results are summarized in the conclusion

The report is a printed version of an internet-based reference database on the relation between birds and bats and aerial obstacles such as wind turbines, utility structures, towers and buildings. The database will be updated regularly, and is accessible via EndNote Web. At the date of printing it contains 1224 references on these topics. The database can also be used as a search engine for other databases such as ISI Web of knowledge, Biosis and others, depending on the access rights of the user.
In this printed version, the references are sorted by theme, thereafter by year of printing and author. The database is named “Birdwind”, and is administered and updated by NINA. The database is meant to be a tool that will make it easier to find relevant literature within these rapidly growing topics
Andre Gide: a study of the relationship between the author and his characters
No full textAndre Paul Guillame Gide was a controversial French writer. Some critics claimed he never wrote about anyone but himself; others denied that he used himself as a model for any but his first works. This paper is the result of a study to determine to what extent the characters of Andre Gide are autobiographical. The novel and novelle of Gide were chosen as a basis for this study because their characters are definite and their situations relatively clear. Each major character in these works was analyzed and his characteristics and actions noted in detail. Then a study was made of the author by reading his own autobiographical works and many biographies and studies of Gide. The characteristics and actions of Andre Gide were analyzed and noted. With the personalities of the author and his characters broken down into habits, characteristics and actions and organized, each character was again observed and his traits and attitudes matched with those of the author whenever this was possible. To avoid a confused jumble of characters, one book with its characters was studied at a time. [...]English, Department o

Development, Implementation, and Industry Reception of a Novel Multi-source, Data-driven Building Energy Management Toolkit
No full textInefficient and uninformed operations negatively impact building energy performance, leading to wide disparities between predicted and actual energy use in commercial and institutional buildings. Though ample research in data-driven building operations analytics has derived various methodologies for extracting energy-saving insights that can inform best practices, these approaches have traditionally remained disparate, and are mostly inaccessible to operations personnel who can benefit from these approaches in augmenting their duties and optimizing building energy efficiency. This research explores the development, implementation, and industry reception of a novel multi-source, data-driven building energy management toolkit as a synthesis of established data-driven approaches in the literature. Energy-saving insights identified from over five separate case study buildings demonstrated the toolkit's multifaceted application to identify operational deficiencies, and interviews with building operators and facility managers regarding the toolkit's outputs were conducted to identify possible barriers which may inhibit operations professionals from effectively deriving and utilizing data-driven insights

Fra militær ekspansjon til alliansebygging. Sparta og helotsystemet.
No full textRundt år 1200-800 før vår tidsregning endret samfunnene i Hellas seg betydelig fra å være palass-sivilisasjoner til i stor grad utvikle seg til å bli det som grekerne kalte poleis, bystater. I Sparta på Peloponnes-halvøya bosatte det seg en folkegruppe som kalte seg dorere, som senere ble spartanere, og de kom til å dominere Peloponnes' historie i århundrene som fulgte. Spartanerne erobret store områder, og etter kort tid kontrollerte de store deler av halvøya. Folkene de erobret kalte de heloter, og de tvang dem til å arbeide for seg. Etter noen hundre år med militær ekspansjon gikk spartanerne over til en mer diplomatisk taktikk, de startet med alliansebygging. De allierte seg med andre bystater i det som i moderne tid har fått navnet Det peloponnesiske forbundet. I denne masteroppgaven har jeg undersøkt når og hvorfor Det peloponnesiske forbundet ble opprettet. Jeg har undersøkt hvem helotene var og hvilken rolle de kan ha spilt i forbindelse med opprettelsen av forbundet. Ved å studere antikke kilder, og både eldre og nyere forskningsresultater, har jeg kunnet sannsynliggjøre enkelte grunner for opprettelsen fremfor andre, og også hvilken tid vi mest sannsynlig kan og bør legge opprettelsen til
